Chapter 45: The Mysterious Palace
On the continent of Moya, the Sanctuary is an organization with a mysterious history and a long history, which is said to be composed of a group of peace-loving humans with super-powerful abilities. They maintained the rule of the dynasty, but they were independent of the state, and their status was transcendent, and they had a profound influence on the country. The Templars were independent and had their own Templar Corps, which were highly disciplined and powerful, and were a deterrent force to deter and stabilize the political situation. The Kasha Dynasty was a vast area, so the temple was also divided into four temples, east, west, south, and north, of which the east temple was the first, and Sosa was born in the south temple.
"I heard that Adelaide, the founder of the Temple, found it in a ruin!" Sosa replied, as if knowing that this statement was not credible, and added, "It seems to be on the West Virgin Mountain!" ”
Our Lady of the West!! It's actually Our Lady of the West! Sang Nan couldn't help but be taken aback in his heart, his eyes were shining, but he believed Sosa's words a little in his heart. Because the mysterious travelogue has mentioned the place of West Queen Mother Mountain many times, and there is such a record: "I visited friends on West Mother Mountain several times, and I once met a monk by chance, and found that his idea was quite mysterious. ”
"If these temple texts were really found on the West Virgin Hill, then could it be related to the monk mentioned in the travelogue?
Could it be that the Painters, the Mystic Monks, and the Grasse Empire existed at the same time? In that case, would the temple texts also mention nautical charts? Sang Nan's mind was full of thoughts for a moment.
Seeing that Sang Nan's face was cloudy, everyone knew that he was thinking about the problem, so they didn't bother.
"Are there any clues to the treasure in the texts?" Sannan suddenly stared at Sosa and asked, "Like some mysterious map or treasure map?" ”
"Treasure map? I don't think I saw it! Sosa frowned and thought for a long time before shaking her head seriously.
Sosa's appearance doesn't look like he's lying, although he is called a superstitious priest, which sounds a little evil, but in essence he is a scholarly person, and his mind is very simple. Sang Nan saw him shaking his head, but he didn't show his face on the surface, but he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Come and see! There should be a door here! Suddenly, Gong Yehan, who was standing on the side, shouted excitedly.
The hearts of the people were shocked again, and they followed the prestige. I saw Gong Yehan standing in front of the stone wall at this time, holding a delicate and small shovel, gently knocking on the middle of the sixteen stone pillars, and said in an affirmative tone: "There should be a door here!" ”
"Is it sealed?" Sannan asked softly.
"That's right, you see there are some subtle traces here, it should be the gap left when the door was sealed, and there are similar marks on the other side!" Gong Yehan pointed to a location with his finger, looking excited, "I roughly measured it, and the distance between the two gaps is about 10 meters!" That's exactly the width of a city gate! ”
When everyone heard Gong Yehan say this, they all showed nervous and curious expressions.
"Can you tear it down?" Sang Nan asked lightly.
Gong Yehan carefully surveyed the crevices before he said to Sang Nan: "The stone walls here are too thick, and it may take some time to tear them down......
The stone wall of the sealed door is 2 meters thick, and it took Gongye Han and others a whole hour to dig out a rectangular hole two meters high and three meters wide. Even so, it made everyone, including Li Yuanru, sweaty profusely, and their hands and feet sore.
Looking at the dark entrance of the cave, Sang Nan did not go in immediately, but asked everyone to hurry up and rest on the spot, and after a while, he began to arrange manpower.
"Brother Li is in front with a shield bearer, Uncle Mei, Zhang Huan, Sosa and I are waiting for the opportunity to respond, the others are following behind, and the other Li Ying leaves 5 people to guard outside, just in case!"
Everyone entered the cave with torches in their hands, because there was no light, and the inside of the stone wall was very dark, and when they could barely see the situation in front of them with the help of the light of the torches, they suddenly became dumbfounded......
Behind the stone wall is a huge palace built in the rock of the mountain, the whole building has eaves and many niches, and the classical court style makes it look unusually tall and majestic, standing in front of it, people can't help but feel extremely small.
What is incredible is that the entire structure of the palace is carved directly from the mountain.
What a big deal! Who would have the courage to carve an entire mountain into a palace!
Could it be Thrall I of the Grasse Empire?
Everyone had different expressions and couldn't help but speculate!
The huge palace in front of you is 100 meters wide and 40 meters high, and the outer side is a portico composed of 16 giant columns, the central hall is divided into two layers, the lower floor is about 8 meters high, and the two sides are also decorated with stone columns, and the eaves and beams are carved with exquisite patterns. The two palace doors are swarthy, I don't know what material they are made of, although they look a little mottled, but when you push them up, they are still very heavy and strong. There is also a huge hideous beast head carved on the temple door, which is not a beast, but it is full of mystery and danger.
On either side of the central nave door, there is also a slightly smaller nave door, which seems to lead to the side nave. Among them, a broad sword is carved on the left temple door, and a simple shield is carved on the right temple door, I don't know what they all represent.
Subconsciously, Sang Nan pushed the temple door carved with a shield pattern with his hand, but unexpectedly, the temple door rattled and shook slightly.
"Huh?" He suddenly let out a soft exclamation, "It seems that the door of this temple has not been sealed!" ”
"Oh?" When the people heard this, they came to this door. "Childe, I'll open the door!" Li Yuanru said cautiously. This palace is so eerie, who knows if there will be danger inside!
"Squeak!" The silver marten in Meddon's arms suddenly screamed uneasily.
"It seems to be afraid of something!" There was a hint of nervousness in Mei Don's voice, and his body unconsciously moved back.
"There's a very strong murderous aura here!" Mei Jingfeng suddenly said in a solemn tone, he had experienced countless killings in his life, and he had never encountered such a strong murderous aura, "Could it be that someone is hiding inside?" ”
When Zhang Huan heard him say this, he quietly clenched the sword in his hand.
"But although this murderous aura is strong, it is not condensed enough, it is really strange!" Mei Jingfeng suddenly frowned again and muttered to herself.
"What the hell is the silver marten afraid of?" Sang Nan's mind was highly concentrated, and he seriously felt everything around him, and he didn't notice any unusual noise! But this palace is not simple, but it always gives him a sense of murder.
"I don't have a choice, I can only take a risk!" Sang Nan thought that his parents and relatives were in danger of their lives at any time, and thought of his plan, so he gritted his teeth and made up his mind, "Uncle Mei and Zhang Huan are the fastest, so this time the three of us are in the front, and the others are in the back, Li Ying covers the side, Gongye and Runye, you wait outside first!" ”
After that, Sang Nan took out the black cone, stood side by side with Mei Jingfeng and Zhang Huan in front of the door, then took a deep breath and whispered: "Open the door!"
