Chapter Forty-Nine: A Mystery Emerges
The situation in front of me is incredible.
They thought of many possibilities, but they couldn't imagine that there was a secret passage hidden in this temple.
The three of them looked at each other, and they were speechless for a while.
After a while, it was still Xiao Hei's cry that brought them back to their senses.
Gao Daochang was unusual, and he actually said a lot of words in one breath: "You see that the lights are bright inside, which is contrary to common sense. ”
Hearing this, not only Wang Tianhua was dumbfounded, but even Dao Chang Ai looked at his senior brother in surprise.
"Senior brother, it's the first time in decades that I've heard you say so many things in one breath." Ai Daochang quipped.
Although it was a joke, Gao Daochang's words were really to the point.
It's amazing how lit up a tunnel is so hidden.
Could it be that someone is living in seclusion here, Ai Daochang guessed.
"Let's go inside!" Ai Dao Chang proposed.
Because of Xiao Hei's physique, it can smell and even see where the yin qi is, and Xiao Hei desperately pulled the mud wall here just now, it must be because it sensed that the yin qi in the depths of the tunnel is extremely heavy.
So they have to go down!
The entrance to the tunnel is only half a person high, followed by a stone staircase leading to the underground, the stone staircase is relatively steep, but the tunnel is relatively spacious, about two meters high, and normal people can walk upright in it.
The stone staircase is very short, and after walking down the stone staircase, I found that the reason why the tunnel is as bright as day is because there is an oil lamp placed every three meters or so on both sides of the tunnel, and each oil lamp is opposite to the oil lamp at the other end of the tunnel, but if you look closely, there seems to be an oil lamp missing at the end of the road.
Wang Tianhua has a young heart and is more curious, he took a closer look and suddenly found a very strange thing.
"Dao Chief!" Wang Tianhua turned around and looked at Ai Gao and the two Dao Masters with incredible eyes, "There's no oil in here!" ”
"The wick seems to be made of wood!"
Listening to Wang Tianhua's words, Gao Daochang glanced at it indifferently, but Ai Daochang was taken aback at first, and then looked at these oil lamps carefully with a solemn expression.
There was really no oil in it, but there seemed to be a few lines engraved on the oil cup.
But these oil lamps should have been left for a long time, and they have begun to rust, and the handwriting on them is not real.
Only vaguely saw the words "three" and "fire", Ai Daochang guessed that this was the "samadhi true fire".
The so-called "Samadhi True Fire" refers to the true fire generated by the cultivation of the Yuan Shen, Yuan Qi, and Yuan Jing Hanzang.
The true fire of Samadhi is the fire of pure yang, which can burn the most evil things in the world.
Daoist Ai was a little puzzled and asked Daoist Gao, "If these are samadhi true fires, then why is there such a heavy yin qi here?" ”
Gao Daochang pondered for a moment and pointed to the rust on the oil lamp.
Wang Tianhua interjected: "Could it be that Daoist Gao wants to say that the oil lamp is rusty, and the power of the Samadhi True Fire is not as good as before, so these evil things are so presumptuous?" ”
Daoist Gao nodded with satisfaction.
It's not that Ai Daochang doesn't know, it's that he thinks about it a lot, and he was negligent for a while, and when he heard this explanation, he nodded approvingly.
The tunnel is getting wider and wider, and a few meters further forward is a big iron gate, not surprisingly, this iron gate has also been rusted and mottled, Wang Tianhua pushed the door with his hand, but it didn't move at all.
Looking carefully, there are two large iron doors, each with an iron door knocker, and the iron door seems to be engraved with some patterns, but there is too much rust, and the original face can no longer be seen.
A person who talks less is more thoughtful, and when others are arguing and bickering, he is thinking.
Therefore, this kind of person is generally more intelligent and careful, just like autistic people, they are often geniuses in one aspect or another.
Gao Daochang usually speaks little, but he observes carefully and observes.
He saw that Wang Tianhua couldn't push open this big iron gate, and thought to himself that there must be an organ here, but where is the organ?
He carefully looked at every place on the iron gate, it was strange!
There is not the slightest flaw!
On the other side, Dao Ai was also trying to find a way to open the iron door, he tentatively knocked on the door with his hand, and listened carefully to see if there was any difference in the sound, this was a way.
Gao Dao Chang frowned intently, carefully thinking about everything just now.
A flash of inspiration!
Oil lamp!
That's right! It's probably an oil lamp, just now I thought it was one less oil lamp, but now it seems that there should be one more.
That much must be the key!
Thinking of this, Gao Daochang walked over to the oil lamp closest to the iron gate.
This oil lamp looks no different from other oil lamps, it is an empty oil lamp and a wick made of wood, and the wick is on fire.
There was no sign from the front, and Gao Daochang turned to the side again, and suddenly noticed that something was wrong with the place where the oil lamp and the stone wall fit.
There are gaps!
Gao Daochang probably guessed what the situation was, and confidently pressed the oil lamp down the gap with confidence.
There was some resistance at first.
Maybe it's been too long, and the mechanism inside may be a little rusty, so use some more force, Gao Daochang thought to himself.
I still didn't react even after trying hard again!
Could it be a mistake? This is not a mechanism? Gao Daochang was a little skeptical of his judgment.
Daoist Ai and Wang Tianhua over there both noticed Daoist Gao's abnormality and walked over.
Carefully looked at the oil lamp that Gao Daochang was pinching, and then looked at the other oil lamps, and suddenly thought that this oil lamp seemed to be over.
So Wang Tianhua took the initiative to ask Ying to move the oil lamp.
Because Wang Tianhua absorbed the essence blood of zombies, his physique has been improved, and his strength is far more comparable to others.
Under the accumulation, the oil lamp slowly moved down.
Wang Tianhua looked at the other two in surprise.
Then a dull sound came, it turned out to be the sound of the iron door loosening!
The iron door is open!
The three of them looked at each other and smiled, it seems that unity is strength, and everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high!
Inside the iron gate turned out to be an inner room, which was about twice the size of the main hall of the General Temple.
There are also many lamps in the inner room, and the lights are as bright as day.
There is a stone coffin in the center of the inner room!
According to Xiao Hei's fierce cry, it can be judged that the yin qi here is very heavy.
Suddenly, Xiao Hei broke free from Wang Tianhua's arms and ran in with a smoke.
"Blackie!" Wang Tianhua was in a hurry for a while, shouting Xiao Hei's name.
However, they noticed that there were two passages on the opposite side of the inner chamber.
Just now, Xiao Hei ran into the left passage.
"Dao Chief, let's go along!"
Now there is no way to do it, so I can only follow Xiao Hei first!
Ai Daochang was very strange, he obviously sensed that the yin qi here was also very heavy, why did Xiao Hei still run inside.
Moreover, he noticed that the yin qi in the passage on the left did not seem to be very heavy, but the yin qi on the right was very thick, making the air look very viscous.
They were about to go inside, when Gao Daochang suddenly noticed a line of words carved on the stone coffin.
"Tianhua, don't go to the right!"
When the three of them saw this line of words, they were shocked, and they didn't know what to say for a while!
Especially Wang Tianhua, he was shocked beyond measure!
Why is this sarcophagus engraved with his name?
