Chapter 37: The Underground Temple

On the nineteenth floor, he happened to meet Xizi Cliff standing outside the door and was uncertain.

Such a scene reminded Linto of what he had said about his gentle knock on Granny Marianne's door but no answer.

Something happened to a poor lonely old man, or maybe he was too careful. Xiziya hasn't left for a long time, so he shouldn't be able to make up his mind.

Lintor went over and patted him on the back and asked, "How's it going, dear?" ”

Xiziya looked back and saw that it was him, lowered his shoulders and shook his head, "It's still the same." ”

"Then let's go upstairs and chase after it."

"Okay, but today is a little different."

Linto crossed his arms and squinted his eyes in waiting.

Xiziya said embarrassedly: "When I got out of the elevator, I obviously saw her open the door and go in, but when I knocked on the door, there was no response. ”

"Hey, in fact, we all know the personality of my mother-in-law, and she will definitely open it when a guest comes, unless she ......" he wanted to say and stopped.

"Unless what?"

"Unless she's not in a good state of mind and doesn't want to see anyone. Let's go. ”

Although Xiziya's expression was a little regretful, he couldn't refute it, and obediently followed Lin Tuo to the upper stairs.

However, at this time, there was a sound of pulling handles outside the door, and the two turned their heads to see that a man in a white shirt cut out of the room, his expression stunned.

The three looked at each other.

Xiziya immediately hid behind Lin Tuo, as if he was shocked by the righteousness of the person in front of him. Linto was not in a hurry, raised his hand and shook it weakly: "Uh, hi." ”

This person is none other than Yin Yun, the boss of the super mysterious Gelian Union.

"You're also here for her?" Yin Yun took a few steps forward, and his tone was very calm.

Linto swallowed a mouthful of water and replied, "What about you?" What are you doing here? ”

"I'm here to visit Rina for the sake of Abu and to break the contract I made." Yin Yun said and raised the document in his hand, "The old woman's spirit is better, you can go in now." ”

Yin Yun's expression was gloomy, he walked to the elevator and pressed the down button. Lin Tuo didn't hear a word of the other party's words, and he asked blankly: "You, you just said that the mother-in-law's name is not Marianne?" ”

"No, I've investigated this old man before, and she's related to a disappearance case many years ago, but it didn't cause much trouble at the time."

Missing again, Linto couldn't help but wonder, wasn't all this a coincidence?

"Big brother, can I ask you something?"

Yin Yun half-knelt down, Lin Tuo whispered a few words in his ear, and Xiziya, who didn't know the truth, looked like a passerby. As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Yun immediately promised: "Of course!" But as a deal, you'll have to help me, too. ”

"It's a deal." Lintor hooked his fingers.

When the elevator closed, he pulled the stiff-faced Xiziya upstairs, and the latter looked dazed and asked, "What did you just say?" Why don't you go and see your mother-in-law? ”

"Didn't I say it, my mother-in-law is resting, so it's best not to disturb her." Linto suddenly raised his head and stopped, "Ah, do you know that man?" ”

The sun was rising, a few crows were heard from the mountains in the distance, and the dry air swept through his nose, and Alain Bu sniffed and slowly opened his eyes.

Standing in front of him was a blue-gray adobe house, small enough to shelter one person. Behind the earthen house is a corrupt cemetery, and a pile of weeds is rushing out of the ground, making it look like a deserted vegetable garden.

In order to prevent outsiders from entering by mistake, a large yellow-brown wolf dog is tied at the entrance of the cemetery, which will bark when someone approaches. No one will believe that it will not bite, because almost none of the people who have been bitten by it will come back alive.

Alan Bu raised his eyes and saw Yin Yun talking to the owner of the cemetery, who was an old man in his seventies, skinny, but still unable to let go of his tough attitude.

Seeing that the conversation was about to reach an impasse, Yin Yun started a routine with him, but it didn't take long for the stubborn old man to finally agree.

The two avoided the big wolf dog and climbed directly over the two-meter-high mud wall, and when they landed, Alan Bu asked, "How could he agree to you so quickly?" ”

"The old man was a dutiful grave keeper, and he never allowed anyone with bad intentions to enter the cemetery. If I tell the name of a deceased, with or without it, he will not agree. ”

So I talked to him about family life just to gain his trust. Later, when I learned that his standard of living was poor, and the tea leaves were inferior and yellow, and the bitterness was difficult to eat, I gave him a box of the best black tea leaves in the city, so I was willing to let him go. ”

Alain Bu thought to himself, I thought you liked to drink tea before you bought the tea leaves, but in the end you gave them away for nothing.

"Is the address provided by the kid accurate?"

"I don't know, but I don't think he's going to lie."

"Then why don't you bring him here?"

Yin Yun shrugged and said, "He's sometimes more abrasive than Kazi. ”

Alan Bu glanced at him, revealing a "I know" expression.

"I'm afraid time is running out, we have to find the entrance before the old man comes to drive people away."

Most of the tombstones or tombstones are scattered and irregularly distributed, and some only have a few broken small stones left, and it is impossible to tell whose tomb it was.

The silhouettes of the branches and leaves are reflected on the ground, and they are connected to each other, and they have become a mottled green.

Although I want to find the entrance, I don't know where the entrance is, is there really such a magnificent underground monument here? Holding a shovel in both hands, Alain Bu dug left and right, making him feel as if he had come to rob a tomb.

Impatiently, he stuck the shovel on the ground, and suddenly touched something unusually hard, and when he looked at the dirt, it turned out to be a steel plate buried in the ground.

The steel plate is iron-blue, and it stretches in all directions, so you can't see how big it is. Yin Yun rushed over when he heard the sound and found a chain of iron rings not far away.

Then, after sorting out the surrounding stones, the two grabbed one end of the chain and worked together to flip the finger-thick steel plate over.

In the shadows, a passage more than eighty wide leads to the unknown darkness.

Alan Bu turned on the flashlight on his chest and was about to go down, but Yin Yun stretched out his hand to stop him. He pointed at himself, as if he had the demeanor of leading by example.

Alan Bu took a step back, only to see Yin Yun jump into the passage, and the bright white light supported the entire space.

There was only one straight road forward, and the height was only about one and a half meters, and the two had to bend over to walk. The walls on both sides are rough to the touch and bright yellow in the light, and their surface is pitted with tight dragon-patterned ravines.

A few hundred meters deep, a downward staircase stretched in front of them, angular and inlaid with purple-black crystals.

The two of them were amazed, and went down the steps, unexpectedly getting wider and wider, and finally reached about two meters. At the bottom is a large space, a temple supported by four large stone pillars, and the light is refracted to the ground through the heavy crystal plates, forming even more bizarre and colorful spots.

A whole row of lifelike white fairy statues look in the direction of the stone steps, as if waiting for their arrival.
