Chapter 301: Shifu Mingtang

What Murong Jie saw was a giant beast statue.

The statue is very large, at least three feet high, and stands in the courtyard behind the house.

Although the courtyard was very dark, with such a tall stone statue, Murong Jie could barely see the outline of the statue.

At the moment when he saw the stone statue, Murong Jie suddenly thought of the inspiration Qiqi, the adventure in the tomb of Lingqi Mountain, Murong Jie still remembers it vividly, especially the scene that is both real and illusory, and the fierce beast Qi Qi he said he saw, compared to Murong Jie's generation, it is impossible to forget.

The stone statue of the giant beast in the courtyard is very similar to the Qi Qi that Murong Jie has seen, is it that the stone statue in the courtyard is Qi Qi, and the mural on the wall in the house, the monster painted is also Qi Qi, only because the mural is seriously faded, so it is impossible to identify what is painted on the mural.

What he saw in front of him aroused Murong Jie's strong curiosity, and Murong Jie always knew nothing about the poor strange ink bead in his arms, and he couldn't ask others for advice. Now there are also Qiqi in this place, maybe you can find the secret of Qiqi Mozhu in this ruined temple.

Murong Jie didn't care about the danger, and strode towards the courtyard behind the house.

When I came to the courtyard to take a look, sure enough, the stone beast was indeed poor, there was not only such a stone beast in the courtyard, but also a strange statue of a giant beast in each of the four directions of east, west, north and south.

The Murong Jie in front of him recognized it as Qi Qi, but the other three looked equally strange, but Murong Jie didn't know what kind of monsters they were.

According to the habits of the Central Plains people, often when worshipping the Quartet, they like to use the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the Xuanwu, but the four-headed giant beast here is obviously not the four elephants, what kind of temple is this, the descendants of the so-called nine elders of the Sword Gate, what are they worshipping.

Full of curiosity, Murong slowly walked towards the main hall behind the stone statue, the main hall is divided into three floors, located in the center of the courtyard, is the most spacious room as far as the eye can see, far larger than the Ming Hall of the Loulan Palace, maybe this is the Ming Hall of this mansion.

Because of the admiration of Confucianism, all the high-ranking families will build the Ming Hall, and no matter where it is, as long as there is a Ming Hall, the Ming Hall is often the most magnificent building in the house.

Only from the scale and decoration of the Ming Hall, you can see the identity of the owner of the house, the Ming Hall of the Murong Mansion is not small, and the tomorrow in front of you seems to be more magnanimous, which shows that the owner of this place, the fame and pomp of the past, are more than that of the Murong Palace.

However, this [Mingtang] is not the other [Mingtang]. The so-called Ming Hall is the hall of Ming Orthodoxy and the temple of the Son of Heaven. Confucianism believes that all kings should build a Ming Hall to inherit the heavens.

The original Ming Hall was built by the Duke of Zhou in Luoyi, in order to show the dignity of the princes. The Han Dynasty deposed the hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism, so they began to build a large-scale Ming Hall, to the period of the two Jin and Northern Dynasties, the imperial power continued to suffer from provocations, and the power of the scholars was flourishing, and often several wang clans were united, so that the royal family could not afford to build the Ming Hall, and the scholars instead followed the example of the Duke of Zhou, and built the Ming Hall in their own courtyard.

After the establishment of the Li Tang Dynasty, after the hard work of successive emperors, the power of the scholars was hit hard, and the construction of the Ming Hall became a national act again.

For a time, no one dared to build the Ming Hall privately, but after the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, everything had variables, with the growing power of the feudal town, but everything with a little bit of power and strength, will build a large or small Ming Hall in their own house, and gradually developed into a fashion trend, it seems that if there is no such a building in their own yard, it seems that they are an illiterate number of lower riba people, only such a Ming Hall, can show that they also understand the etiquette of the Zhou Gong, but it is a pity that they understand is understood, but it is just left in words, behind the back of the male thief and female prostitute, you usurp me to steal, intrigue, never a day of restใ€‚

Now this courtyard can't bring any answer to Murong Jie, if you want to know more, the Ming Hall in front of you is undoubtedly the best choice, and as for the knife thief, it is likely that he is hiding in the Ming Hall.

Murong Jie didn't dare to act rashly, he circled around the Ming Hall three times, and didn't find any danger, so he decided to go to the Ming Hall to have a look.

Walking up the stone steps, the door of the Ming Hall was closed, Murong Jie thought for a moment, and decided to come first to dismount, so as not to break in recklessly and fall into the ambush of the thief and knife thief.

Murong Jie returned to the previous room again, picked up a few magic artifacts casually, and then reappeared in front of the Ming Hall.

Murong Jie let out a loud shout, kicked the door open suddenly, and threw the magic weapon in his hand into it. If there was really an ambush inside, he would definitely make the ambush self-defeating, but it was a pity that Murong Jie babbled for a long time, and there was no response from the Ming Hall.

Could it be that there is no one in the hall, and the knife thief is not in the hall. Murong Jie looked around for a long time before he landed his gaze on the gate of the Ming Hall again.

It was very dark in the Ming Hall, and he couldn't see what was inside when he stood outside, so Murong Jie could only walk into the Ming Hall cautiously so that he could see clearly what was inside.

The Ming Hall was empty, and he could see a few figures at the appointment, Murong Jie was immediately taken aback, it seems that there is no knife thief in this place, and now he is unarmed, and he doesn't know what the strength of the opponent is, if he really makes a move, Murong Jie is not sure at all in his heart.

Murong Jie couldn't help but take a few steps back, leaning his back against a Liang Zhu in the Ming Hall, he wanted to prevent someone from sneaking up from behind, but when he leaned on Liang Zhu, the hairs on his whole body stood up.

He clearly remembered that when he came in, there was no one behind him at all, but now Murong Jie seemed to be leaning on not a pillar at all, but an out-and-out living person.

Murong Jie was shocked, and suddenly turned his head to investigate, wondering what appeared behind him, how could it appear so unexpectedly, knowing that he couldn't detect the aura of the person at this moment.

Murong Jie turned his head and was suddenly frightened into a cold sweat, almost standing unsteadily and falling to the ground.

After his death, he was not a human at all, or rather a living person. Appearing behind him, it was indeed Liang Zhu of Mingtang, but the tall Liang Zhu was made up of people, which could also be said to be corpses.

The whole Liang Zhu is full of corpses, and what Murong Jie encountered just now was these miserable corpses, and they were not masters who came and went without a trace.

One fear subsided in his heart, and at the same time another, an even greater fear, surging in his face like the bursting of the Yellow River.

He has experienced countless hardships, countless times in the fear of the unknown, but never one can compare with what he sees in front of him.

Murong Jie looked up along Liang Zhu, he suddenly felt dizzy, and a strong desire to vomit welled up in his heart, Mingtang was not just Liang Zhu, whether it was the roof or the walls, it was full of countless corpses. Standing in the darkness, it seems to have been built out of corpses.
