Chapter 272: Yama Palace
The Son of Heaven was stunned for a moment, and stood there blankly with his sword in his hand, no longer moving.
The dead people rushed in front of him, and he didn't resist, just looked at them seriously.
His body was being bitten, and there was a pained look on his face.
But his eyes were fixed on the person in front of him.
In front of him was a man in rags, with calluses on his hands and wounds all over his body.
I said quietly, "Did you see that?" When there was no war, these people had to plough the fields and toiled for a year, barely enough to survive starvation. Once there is a disaster, it is necessary to sell children and daughters. ”
"When there is a war, they will join the army again, leaving their lives in the wilderness of the frontier."
"Who are you to say that your life is not easy? They're just like you, they're all living people. ”
The Son of Heaven was silent.
He was eaten up in silence.
When the dead receded, the Son of Heaven reappeared on the throne.
This time, he lifted his sword and slowly slashed it at his neck.
He cut it very slowly, and then, the Son of Heaven's neck was cut with a huge wound.
His body became more and more illusory, and finally disappeared.
Hui Ling looked at me: "Is this the end?" ”
I hummed, "It seems like it's over." ”
Hui Ling said again, "Is he dead? ”
I hesitated a little and said, "Looks like you're dead, right?" ”
Hui Ling glared: "He's dead?" But what about the Passage Warrant? ”
I stood up on the balcony, looked at the stone men in the distance, and said faintly, "The Son of Heaven is already dead, and those stone men shouldn't be able to move, right?" I think they're connected. ”
"Maybe the death of the Son of Heaven is a pass warrant."
Hui Ling said, "Then let's go and try it." ”
The two of us climbed down the deck.
Then we hurried up the hill.
I guessed it right, these stone figures have all turned into real stones.
Although they are still hideous, they still look like they are going to cut people, but they don't move at all.
Looks like we're about to get out of this mountain pass.
At this time, I saw that these stone figures had changed.
The shape of their armor has changed, and their eyes have changed their looks. Then, their appearance, clothing, and even the weapons in their hands were different.
Hui Ling exclaimed, "What did these stone men do?" Can the stone be changed? Am I hallucinating? ”
I looked back, and there was another person on the throne of the Son of Heaven just now.
I said faintly, "You have not changed, but a new and wicked person has appeared." ”
"One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, there are too many such people in history. died a son of heaven, and there was a great commander, and a great commander and a prime minister died. I'm worried that these people will commit suicide all the way, and they won't be able to commit suicide for ten or eight years. ”
Hui Ling also reacted: "So, just now we persuaded the Son of Heaven to commit suicide, which is equivalent to passing this level, right?" ”
I hummed, "While these stone figures are not fully alive, let's hurry up." ”
Hui Ling and I quickened our pace and passed the mountain pass.
The front suddenly opened up, and there were no more stone people.
Suddenly, I heard another sound of a tsunami behind me.
I turned back and saw the corpses come alive again, and they poured into the throne and began to bite the new Son of Heaven.
Hui Ling shook her head again and again: "It's really terrifying here. ”
I sighed and said with some worry: "I don't know how Xia Tian is now." ”
Hui Ling pointed to the top of her head and said, "We will soon reach the top of the mountain." Let's go up and take a look, maybe Xia Tian is not here at all. ”
I smiled wryly, "If she's not here, I'm really worried." The world is big, where can I find it? ”
Hui Ling said: "Let's go to the top of the mountain first, if not, it's not too late to worry." ”
I hummed, and then climbed to the top of the hill with Hui Ling.
At the top of the hill is a small platform, not too large.
There was a small temple on top of the small platform, and I took a closer look and found that there was a plaque hanging on the small temple: "Yama Temple." ”
Hui Ling said to me, "It seems that this is a temple of Hades." ”
I was a little puzzled and said, "The Yama Temple is the Yama Temple, why does this sign say Yama Temple?" It feels weird. ”
Hui Ling said: "Perhaps the people who built this temple thought that the mountain of sin was full of gloom, and that all the people who lived there were wicked people, just like the legendary underworld. Therefore, there is no problem with the Yama Temple here being called the Yama Temple. ”
I said, "I don't think it's a big problem, who built a little temple here?" ”
Hui Ling said: "Why don't you suspect first, when we passed by just now, we saw the mansions, palaces, and stone people, how did they come from?" ”
"Maybe everything is just an illusion of the Mountain of Sin."
I hummed, "It's probably a hallucination." ”
The two of us didn't go in immediately, but circled around the Yama Temple.
This is our habit, first look at the surrounding situation, talk about whether there is any danger, and make sure that it is safe before entering.
After we walked around, we didn't find a problem, so we climbed over the wall and went in.
This is also our habit, if we can not go to the main door, we will not go to the main door.
After climbing over the wall and entering, we both squatted on the ground and didn't move.
After feeling the situation around him, everything was normal, and then he slowly straightened up.
At this time, a full moon appeared in the sky, illuminating the place.
It stands to reason that the mountain of sin should not be high, but I feel that the moon is very close to us, as if it is right in front of us.
The moon is very bright, and it shines on this place.
Even more disturbing, the moon has a faint hint of red.
It's like a red eyeball.
I glanced at Hui Ling, and Hui Ling also looked uneasy.
However, she still said: "If you come, you will be safe." ”
I don't know if I'm cheering me up or comforting myself.
But soon she muttered in a low voice: "I'm really full, what are you doing in this kind of place?" ”
I pulled out the peachwood sword in my arms and carefully checked the situation.
There are a lot of hideous-looking ghosts in the courtyard.
Each of them carries a chain in his hand, and at the other end of the chain is a ghost who has made a mistake.
I leaned closer and sensed it carefully.
There is no problem with this ghost, it is indeed a statue made of stone. It's just that under the light of the blood-colored moon, it looks particularly terrifying.
Hui Ling pointed to the main room of the Yama Hall and motioned for me to come over.
I nodded and walked forward with Hui Ling.
At this moment, I suddenly felt that the statue next to me came to life.
I suddenly broke out in white sweat, snorted in my throat, and jumped to the side, holding a peachwood sword, looking at the statue vigilantly.
Hui Ling walked over and looked at me speechlessly: "What the hell are you doing?" ”
I said to Hui Ling, "There is something wrong with this ghost, but he is alive." ”
Hui Ling frowned and looked at it for a while: "Won't it?" ”
I said, "Just now I felt his eyes move, and there was a gleam. ”
Hui Ling wondered, "Is there one?" Why didn't I feel it? Where did you see that? ”
I cautiously moved my steps back to where I had stood, and at this time, Oniza's eyes immediately lit up.
My heart pounded.
However, at this time, I was mentally prepared not to jump in fright like I did just now.
I took a closer look at the ghost, then breathed a sigh of relief and said to Hui Ling, "This guy's eyes are made of glass, and when viewed at a certain angle, they will reflect light. ”
Hui Ling: "......"
She was a little speechless and said, "You are so surprised...... The ghost didn't scare me, you scared me. ”
I laughed dryly: "Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years." ”
Then, the two of us walked towards the main hall.
I pushed the door of the main hall. Can't push it away.
The door was plugged in from the inside.
Hui Ling frowned: "What should I do?" ”
I said to Hui Ling, "It's okay, I have a way. ”
I reached in with my mahogany sword and began to slowly flick the door plug.
One, two, three......
Finally, with a click, I removed the door plug.
I gently pushed the door.
The two wooden doors creaked, and then fell plainly to the earth.
I tried to cough, but I covered my mouth and didn't make a sound.
After the door opened, Hui Ling and I cautiously looked inside.
The altar inside is dedicated to the statue of King Yama.
The king of Yama sat and looked at us with a majestic face, and beside the king of Yama was the judge holding the book of life and death.
And under the hall, there is black and white impermanence.
All the statues turned their heads to look at us at the door, as if they knew we were coming.
Hui Ling said to me, "This place makes me uncomfortable. You say there's a problem here, right? There's no problem here, at least I haven't found a problem yet, but I'm just hairy. ”
I nodded: "Same feeling." And...... I always felt like something was wrong here. ”
Hui Ling looked at me: "Do you see something is wrong?" ”
I hummed, "I always thought there should be a window here, but there wasn't one." But why a window is needed, I can't figure out. ”
Hui Ling looked at me a little speechlessly: "You are sick, what kind of window do you want?" You don't live here. ”
Suddenly, Hui Ling's face changed greatly, and she pulled me hard: "Hurry up, go quickly." ”
I was startled and quickly retreated with her.
I asked Hui Ling, "What's wrong?" ”
Hui Ling didn't speak, but closed the door with a pale face.
After closing it, she said to me, "Can you please re-insert the door?" ”
I said, "How do I get the door outside?" ”
Hui Ling's face turned even paler: "So...... Who was in it before? ”
"This room has no windows, where did he go after he plugged the door?"
My heart thumped.
At this time, Hui Ling said faintly beside him: "So, one of the statues inside should be alive." ”
