Chapter 584 String Holes

Stinky boy, how dare you threaten me?

Hehe, it's kind of my temper.

"Okay, then I'll take you." I said with a straight face, "However, if you kid dares to lie to me, I will immediately throw you down to those tens of thousands of horsewhip corpses." ”

"There are no horses." Xiao Yuan is domineering.

After saying this, the little one ran away.

I followed unhurriedly.

After several turns, there are traces of artificial repair in the cave ahead, such as masonry trails, guardian stone beasts, thick beams and columns, ceiling cornices, and red paint guardrails...... and so on one by one.

This feeling is indeed quite novel.

"This is the Sword Ancestral Hall?" I looked left and right and said casually.

"Is there anything else?" Xiao Yuanba asked rhetorically.

"Huh? When did you change your outfit? I looked at it and was amazed.

"I also washed my head and face by the way." Xiao Yuanba shook his hair and said, "I'm afraid that someone will kill me later, and it was not good to receive guests just now." ”

"You still know how to entertain guests?" I couldn't help but laugh and cry.

But don't say it, after this kid freshened up, he changed into a set of red and black corseted robes, and when he went to that station, he really had a heroic feeling.

It's also true, activities like sacrificial offerings, what is important is the scene, and it has to be good-looking, if there is no skin, it is estimated that he will not be able to be this sword boy.

Who would have thought that once no one was in charge, this kid would be so sloppy.

"Isn't the sword boy supposed to keep the ancestral hall clean?" I stuck out my finger and smeared a strip on the railing. "This dust is a few feet thick, you kid hasn't cleaned it at all, has you?"

"Hey, few people will come up, just sweep it in the next few days of spring." Xiao Yuanba said disapprovingly.

As we spoke, we turned into the ancestral hall.

The outside looks simple, but the space inside the Jiangong Temple is unexpectedly spacious, as if this cave was hollowed out when it was built.

Facing a stone statue, more than 20 feet high, angry eyes, beardless, holding a life-length giant sword, when looking up, the oppressive momentum poured down like a mountain and a sea, making people feel a sense of awe.

"This is Jian Gong?" I said in a deep voice.

"Who else?" Xiao Yuanba shrugged.

No wonder I have heard fellow martial artists say that if you travel the world, this Sword Ancestral Hall is a place worth visiting.

Not only because of the wonder of the cliff and the grandeur of the huge stone statues, but more importantly, there is a faint feeling for me.

The feeling of 'martial intent'!

I don't know what martial intent is, but in front of people like Master Wu, Hong Liding, and Li Jiuyao who have comprehended martial intent, they will have a similar feeling - of course, it has to be when they show their martial intent.

Those who are martial will send and receive from the heart, invisible and traceless.

The most important thing is that martial intent can break the spirit!

This alone is enough to make the heroes of the rivers and lakes frightened.

At this moment, I have a feeling that I will be 'broken' anytime and anywhere.

"Strange." I frowned and said, "Who built this statue?" ”

"It's been hundreds of years, and who knows who built it." Xiao Yuan is domineering.

"If you can actually make the stone statue exude sword qi and martial intent, it shouldn't be the giant sword duke's own cultivation, right?" I guessed.

"Then you might as well say that this is what the Giant Sword Gong himself has changed." Xiao Yuanba sneered.

"Haven't you heard of respecting the teacher?" I kicked him in the ass, "Where's the hiding place?" Where is it? ”

"Right behind the statue." Xiao Yuan is domineering.

"Could it be that there is a cave in the back?" I walked around the altar and behind the statue.

The further you go, the stronger the feeling of martial intent becomes.

Belch!

This condensed and undispersed martial intent did not seem to emanate from the stone statue, its real source was something behind the stone statue.

What will it be?

I held my breath and lifted a curtain of beads in front of me.

Nothing.

But I'm not disappointed, because there is nothing, in fact, there is.

A huge hollow!

To be precise, it is in the mountain, as if someone has dug a huge hole with a spoon, and on the wall of the large hollow, there are several small holes.

Hole in the hole, hole outside the hole, hole in the hole...... There is also sunlight streaming down from the tops, illuminating the holes as if they were day.

Oh?

Do you still remember that at the top of the mountain tunnel, there are a lot of glazed lampshades? At the time, I wondered how the sunlight could shine through the thick mountains.

Now it seems that it is through this kind of hole.

It is clear that this is by no means a natural landscape.

Could it be that someone dug it?

But the digging is so complicated that it can neither be used as a cave dweller, nor can it be used as a passage, and the rest of the usage is probably to collect sunlight.

If it is purely for lighting, there is no need to dig like this!

It's weird......

"That's what you call a hiding place?" I came back to my senses from my contemplation.

"That's right." Xiao Yuan said domineeringly, "These string holes are very complicated, and the bottom is a tunnel through the mountain, which leads straight up to the top of the mountain, hiding inside, and hundreds of people may not be able to find it." ”

"Straight to the top of the mountain?" I rejoiced, "Isn't that the way out?" Still hiding from a spear? ”

"It's to the top of the mountain, yes, but you can't climb up at all." Xiao Yuanba explained, "It's all a cylinder hole that goes straight up and down for hundreds of feet, unless you can fly, or no one can walk." ”

"Really?" I muttered, but I had the heart to take a look first.

Maybe I'll find a way to climb up.

Even if it really doesn't work upwards, isn't there a tunnel through the mountain underneath?

I kept slipping down, smashing through the glazed frosted cover of lighting, could I blend in with the crowd passing through the tunnel and escape from this hellish place?

Well......

Both methods are worth trying.

Thinking of this, I was about to do it, but I heard a series of 'bang' sounds outside, and even the stone wall of the ancestral hall was shaken to dust.

Could it be that those armies are shooting arrows?

Probably not, even if the elephant is allowed to draw the bow, it will not be able to make such a mighty momentum.

"Go out and have a look." I turned around and walked outside the ancestral hall.

What an arrow!

However, it was not the kind of arrows used by ordinary soldiers, but the city-breaking arrows fired with an eight-story bed crossbow.

The shaft of the arrow alone is as thick as a thigh!

These arrows were so deep into the walls, rocks, and buildings that they left rubble everywhere.

"Do they want to demolish this ancestral hall?" Xiao Yuanba was shocked.

When I finally saw this kid's panicked appearance, I couldn't help grinning.

Hey, now is not the time for schadenfreude.

"They're building roads." I said.

"What road?" Xiao Yuanba was stunned.

"Build a way up!" I frowned.

That's right, at the end of each city-breaking arrow, there is a super long hemp rope the thickness of a baby's arm.

With this hemp rope, those soldiers below can climb up in a steady stream!
