617. Labyrinth in the sanctuary

Inside the gates of the sanctuary is a world.

Beyond the gates of the sanctuary there was another world.

Gu Fan's eyes moved slightly, he raised his feet and stepped towards the door of the sanctuary, and the moment he stepped into the hall, the feeling that the tide wrapped his surroundings came with it.

They don't belong to an anomaly, they don't belong to a certain energy, and it's impossible to even know for sure if they exist, but like everyone's quirks and habits, they are hidden in the most subtle corners, and they are pervasive.

Click.

Gu Fan's shoes trampled on the dark and quaint stone slabs, and the sound of them rippled in the corridor.

The corridor behind the gate of the sanctuary was empty, not half guarded, except for stone pillars and eerie totems on the walls, and every visitor in the empty environment would pay attention to the strange decorations.

Exert a subtle influence on......

Just like those psychologists and hypnotists, they will guide people's consciousness step by step through words and images, and finally achieve psychological suggestion or other purposes.

Gu Fan could see that the surrounding ornaments, the carvings on the stone pillars, and those weird murals all came with this kind of "psychological suggestion" similar to hypnosis, which made people's minds gradually loosen.

After a distance of several hundred meters, the sanctuary was empty, as if it were just a tourist attraction, with no defenses set up and free for people to visit.

As soon as they reached a fork in the road, they appeared.

The hallway of the sanctuary has two identical forks in the road, without any signage, and you can freely choose which passage to enter.

This is...... Maze??

It was a surprise.

At the end of the corridor behind the gate of the sanctuary, a labyrinth will appear.

Outside one fork in the road, another is connected, forming a giant labyrinth, each entrance and exit is identical, and it is almost identical in both frescoes and carvings.

Gu Fan and No. 07 Fog stepped into a passage.

As we move forward, the tides of the field become more and more intense, and the patterns depicted in the surrounding frescoes become more and more exaggerated.

Uncanny.

Yin and evil.

There are often some bloody images with philosophical implications.

These images will inexplicably cause people to think, subconsciously want to understand what they are and what they represent, but once they start to think, they fall into a trap.

The Trap of Thinking.

You'll sink deeper and deeper into those dark murals.

"Lord Death, I'm going to find a way out."

07 Fog exerts its ability, puffs of smoke and dust sweep through the passage, and the maze that extends in all directions will be covered by fog, and it is the best way to find a way out of the maze in this way.

But...... Fog 07 did not find a real exit.

After a while, she returned to Gu Fan's side and half-knelt on the ground: "Lord Death, it seems that the road has no exit, and it is all sealed. ”

Sealed?

All labyrinthine roads are dead ends.

"Nope."

Gu Fan shook his head: "It's not that you've been sealed, it's that your thinking has been affected and you have deliberately avoided the right path." ”

He stroked his palm over the frescoes, his eyes flashing a few sharp, and continued: "It is gradually leading people to go deeper, but the mind will not find the right channel unless it is completely polluted. ”

"Only when the mind follows the logical order they have set can it find the one it needs in the countless passages of the labyrinth."

Logical order!!

If the mind is not completely polluted, the logical order of a normal person can only find countless dead ends, none of which is correct.

Because this huge labyrinth is full of psychological hints and inexplicable power, and when you are really confused and mentally polluted, that passage will gradually emerge.

Now, there are two ways to find an exit.

First, forcibly break it!!

Using brute force to directly smash the walls of the maze is simple and violent, but it is a bit stupid.

Second, imitate that way of thinking.

Understand the murals and sculptures, interpret them, worship them, fascinate yourself, and find the right path.

Of course, these two paths...... Gu Fan didn't choose.

Wisps of killing intent spread out from between his fingers, breaking through the tide of consciousness around him, feeling the intensity of the fluctuations of spiritual power, and soon had an answer.

"The power of the mind grows in that direction."

"Oracle-like telekinesis, or faith."

Gu Fan withdrew his palm, he sensed that the power of a certain direction realm had become stronger, and the consciousness of his mind and thoughts was very strong, and it had even reached the point where it could remain in the air.

Continuing in that direction, the two soon entered a deeper labyrinth.

A human appeared.

It was a human lying on the wall, interpreting the dark history on the mural.

He was deeply fascinated by this, his face was full of adoration, and there was a kind of pleasure of "sudden realization", as if he had understood something.

Fog 07 glanced at Gu Fan and stepped forward with his authority, shaking the man's shoulder.

No response.

His withered arms drooped and swayed, and the expression on his face didn't change, and he didn't notice anyone tapping him on the shoulder.

Mist 07 stretched out two more fingers and opened the man's eyelids, causing more light to shine into his pupils, but he was unaware of this.

"The eyes are intact, but the pupils don't respond to light."

Gu Fan stopped the fog and concluded: "His perception has been lost, he can't perceive everything in the outside world, and he has almost become a vegetative person." ”

Vegetable.

The dumb and smiling man was completely lost in the strange contents of the mural.

This is not just a labyrinth of dead ends, it is also a labyrinth of the human mind, and the whole body is quiet, and it will be dominated by the power in the underworld.

Keep moving.

Soon, several more "vegetative people" appeared in front of him.

They were clinging to stone pillars, leaning on walls, or crouching in corners thinking...... But they all have a common and obvious characteristic, that is, their eyes are cloudy and they are as stupid as if they have lost their souls.

"Consciousness is no longer here."

"We should be almost there."

Gu Fan glanced at these people again, anyone could judge by those expressions, even if he "lost his soul" and became a vegetative person, but his overly distorted and exaggerated face was full of ...... Happiness!!

Twisted happiness.

It's here!!

The exit of the labyrinth is unremarkable, connecting a hall with a diameter of more than a kilometer.

Immediately after that, Gu Fan and the others saw an extremely shocking picture, tens of thousands of human beings sitting on the ground, their eyes lowered and facing a huge statue.

And that statue, engraved with nothing else, is the most mythical totem in China.

Dragon!!
