I went to a couple of caves next to it, and the people in them all had this raised bone spur on the back of their necks, like dragons.

But this does not prove that the immortal people mentioned by Lu Yan are in the Wang family, and even these people cannot be proved to be the Wang family. Maybe all this is just an accident, they are all some kind of human race that has survived from ancient times, just like Lu Yan and they both had broken left arms.

Everyone had strange artifacts in their hands, some of them raw ore rosaries that had been rubbed to a smooth finish, others of metallic texture, and I even saw a dead wood hand holding something like a rice spoon.

Lu Yan watched me go in and out very seriously, with a trace of worry in his eyes, this worry was different from the past, and it seemed that there were many other ingredients.

Liu Dongxi also found the corpse in the cave, to my surprise, he did not take the string of multi-treasure prayer beads of great value, it seems that he is also in awe of these in front of him.

There is still more than 10 meters of distance up from here, and this section is even more difficult, and the dome that closes in the middle is very difficult to climb, which is the last difficulty in that professional climbing competition.

I saw that what hung down like a rope was just a withered climbing vine, which collapsed at the touch, and I looked at the cracks in the dome like a world away, and I missed the strong rope on the car.

At that moment, a burnt smell suddenly filled the air. I stood on the edge of the platform and looked down, but I saw that the pool in the middle of the hall was already boiling, and a large amount of mist had dispersed into the air, and the corpse was floating in the boiling water.

It seems that everything is more or less the same as we speculated, and the water will eventually evaporate under the action of lava. But we couldn't go back through the bottom of the pool, not to mention the hot rocks at the bottom, and just looking at the boiling water, I knew that the magma must have invaded the bottom of the pool, and the way we came was completely sealed.

Although there was a large threat of human-faced lizards out there, I didn't really take it seriously. After all, the extremely hot and cold environment here will soon change, and those lizards have already emerged from the human brain, and they will not be able to adapt to this drastic change in temperature, and they will soon lose their vitality. We can go back the way we came, at most a little longer.

But now that the lava has sealed our path, we have no choice but the void overhead.

In fact, the road chosen by Liu Dongxi and Lu Yan is very perfect, the foothold constitutes a complete path, and the dome is also because of the closer distance and the stronger sense of oppression will make it feel unclimbable.

I felt that the secrets of this place were still fascinating, but I didn't want to linger any longer. We have been hungry and thirsty for so long since we entered the cave, and if we do not return to the car, we may soon have an error of judgment due to exhaustion and thirst, which will be fatal to us.

The gap in the sky turned like a flyer, and here was the place where it was turning, the shortest distance from the dome to the gap. Even if it were, it would take our backs to crawl vertically down for a distance of three or four meters.

"Xiao E? You shouldn't have a problem going out, right? I asked.

Ean nodded.

"Go to the car, find the rope and drag us up!" I'll be brief.

He didn't speak, but jumped and swam up like a gecko, his body clinging to the roof of the cave, and his long silver hair twisted a few times before flipping out of the gap.

I watched her disappear and breathed a sigh of relief, I felt that this place was not far from our car, and if there were no accidents, two hours would be enough time to go back and forth. The foot travel should be a little faster, we just need to be patient.

Liu Shiwu raised his head and looked, and suddenly said, "I'll go too!" ”

"What are you going to do? Did you climb up? I asked, and suddenly I realized that Liu Dongshi could indeed climb up.

"I'm not worried, I have to go and see!" Liu Dongxi muttered, didn't say anything else, grabbed a stone and climbed up.

I watched his rapidly rising shadow and didn't call him again, nothing would happen anyway, the outside world was far safer than the inside.

Seeing Liu stuff climb out as well, I began to continue to check the rest of the cave. The rest of the place is much the same, the same bone spurs, the same without the left arm.

Wang Dake and Lu Yan both became a little wrong, as if they had discovered something. I know that Wang Dake should have discovered the characteristics that he and them have in common, but I don't know what happened to Lu Yan.

"Lu Yan, what's wrong with eternal life?" I walked over to Lu Yan.

Lu Yan didn't look at me, staring at the hole on the opposite platform.

"Surely you know the golden jade clothes."

I nodded, I do know that of all the immortal legends, the golden jade cloth is the most materialized. But after all, it's just a pile of stones, and it's useless.

Lu Yan still didn't look at me, but talked about a past incident when he was young.

At that time, Lu Yan was still called Liu Ranqing, and a corpse wrapped in golden jade clothes was found in a Western Zhou tomb.

Perhaps because of the change in the atmosphere, the tomb robbers at that time also had to face all kinds of strange monsters in the tomb, and even various zombies transformed by the tomb owner himself. But now they are no longer visible, and they are often seen in coffins or burial chambers with distorted hairy corpses standing against the walls. Over time, the current tomb robbers such as Liu Dongxi no longer believe in the various legends handed down on the back of the group, and the related functions have slowly been lost.

Lu Yan saw that it was a corpse with slight fluctuations, thinking that he had encountered a living corpse again, but when he was about to deal with it with traditional methods, he felt that something was wrong.

In fact, no matter what theory is explained, a living corpse or zombie is not a living entity, so the thing of panting should have nothing to do with it, and the corpse is likely to be really alive.

I suddenly recalled the scene when Lu Yan opened the coffin, the people in the coffin were clearly still alive, could they all be the same thing?

But I didn't want to interrupt Lu Yan's story, so I decided to ask him later.

Lu Yan and the others carried the body out of the coffin, but reached out to undo the buckle on the golden jade robe. Faced with what was inside, all the people were colorless.

The golden jade robe was full of thick skin danders, and the people inside had already turned into a mixture of skin, bone and flesh, and if it weren't for the golden jade robe, I don't know what shape it would become.

As soon as the golden jade robe was opened, it had already lost its effectiveness, and the man, or rather, the pile of flesh quickly lost its vitality and died on the ground.

Everyone sighed, but only Lu Yan saw a look of relief and gratitude in his facial features on that puddle of soft meat. From this incident, Lu Yan understood two things, one is that the human body must not be something that can exist forever, just like the old man's joints will become larger, the short bones will become longer, and the cartilage will become hard bones. In the end, the human body will definitely get out of control and become a monster that you don't even know. The second is that eternal life is definitely not a very happy thing, whether it is trapped in a golden and jade cage or living between heaven and earth, all the joys of life will eventually turn into boring waiting.

I don't know if there were golden jade clothes in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and it seems that all I heard about it was the Han Dynasty, but the experience that Lu Yan said still interests me very much, especially for the paradox of human immortality, I have never thought of it.

"That's what you said you knew? Then why is it still said that someone can live forever? I asked.

"I don......'t know," Lu Yan seemed to hesitate to tell me, "this way of immortality may not care about the changes in the body......"

I didn't understand Lu Yan's expression, and waited quietly for him to continue.

"Si'an, do you know the reincarnated spirit child?" Lu Yan asked me suddenly.

"Reincarnated spirit child, you mean that this is eternal life?" I don't understand, "Not to mention whether there is really a reincarnated spirit child, just to say that according to the theory of reincarnation, all people can be regarded as immortal?" ”

"That's different, the reincarnated spirit boy still carries the knowledge and memories of his previous life, and ordinary people are whitewashed and released." Wang Dake was no longer stunned, and I didn't notice it when he came over, and suddenly spoke, startling me.

When I heard him say this, I remembered that the reincarnated souls were indeed formatted by Meng Po, and it seemed that there was really a difference.

Lu Yan looked at Wang Dake, and continued without scruples: "This kind of immortality here seems to be more extreme than the reincarnated spirit child, not only the continuation of the soul, but even the body cannot change!" ”

I also glanced at Wang Dake, but my mind was completely on her neck, and I wanted to know what the bone spur would look like when she was alive. As for what Lu Yan said, he didn't care much.

Wang Dake was a little flustered, and asked with a little trembling: "Lu Yan, what do you mean?" ”

Lu Yan's face was also very bad. "I mean, all the husks here are actually one person!"

I had long guessed that he would say that, and I wasn't much surprised. But Wang Dake had already known that the people here were related to her family, and he was obviously taken aback.

If we save all sentient beings from the sea of suffering, we will receive the fruits of hundreds of billions of incarnations.

This is the words of the Buddhist scriptures, which means that if you can make a grand wish to free all sentient beings from the sea of suffering, you will be able to obtain the fruits of hundreds of billions of incarnations. Who made such a grand wish to obtain the fruit of incarnation?

I can't help but think that at that time, Tibetan Buddhism replaced Bon here, and all kinds of signs can be seen that the Wang family seems to be the people of Bon, is it that some Buddha who incarnated tens of millions of people accepted the defeated Wang family as his own incarnation?

But there is no left arm, and I don't have the impression of a one-armed Buddha.

"Yes!" Lu Yan seemed to see through my thoughts, "Second Ancestor Huike, Lixue broke his arm to seek the Dharma to get the mantle of Dharma." ”

"Huike?" I think Lu Yan is a little confused, "Hui Ke is a little close, right?" ”

"Who said Hui Ke is itself?" Lu Yan asked rhetorically.
