Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Mystery of Man-Eating
Zhao Zhifeng actually woke up earlier than Han Chang, but we all surrounded Han Chang, and we all ignored him, leaving him lying there half-asleep and half-awake for a long time without reacting. It wasn't until Han Chang woke up that we remembered him and helped him up.
These two goods are like no one, and when they wake up, they come to the end of the sentence. They already subconsciously think that we will definitely take them with us and will not leave them. Although this is an absolute trust in us, we are still very uncomfortable to hear them ask.
We're working hard, like these two goods, we don't know anything, and we lie down for a night.
After a few words to send them away, we left the two goods and ignored them again. But the girl from the expedition, although she seemed to be about to wake up, did not see her open her eyes at this moment. Maybe it's because I've been locked in my consciousness for too long, and it's not so easy to get out for a while.
Until Han Chang and Zhao Zhifeng fully recovered, we still stood still. It wasn't until about ten o'clock in the morning, when the sun was clearly about to reach its peak, and the two of them were almost recovered, that we were ready to go.
At this time, the six of us were actually not in a hurry to set off, Han Chang and Zhao Zhifeng had already recovered, so there was no need for us to rush to find the spirit and ghost thing to treat them. But thinking of that weird black fog, we are afraid that if it appears again, it will outweigh the losses and miss the opportunity. So, we decided to go right away.
The girl from the expedition still didn't wake up, and the village chief decided to stay and take care of her. So, the six of us act on our own.
Yu Qian and I easily went up to the yang steps, and it wasn't until we entered the temple gate that we found that none of the four had come up. When he turned around, Boss Taiyi was in the third order, Zhao Zhifeng and Zhou Jun were in the second order, and Han Chang had a bitter face and was still struggling in the first order.
We have completely forgotten the power of the seventh order of the temple, and Yu Qian and I have successfully crossed the seventh order, so the seventh order is basically useless for us. But for these people, the effect still exists!
With a sigh, Yu Qian and I had no choice but to go back and take them all down.
"The seventh-order and first-order of this temple are more difficult than the first-order, and there is also a first-order ghost gate, which is basically impossible to pass. Yu Qian and I struggled a lot to get through. Therefore, don't waste your efforts. I whispered to them.
In fact, what I mean is quite clear, and Yu Qian can hear the taste. However, these four second goods were confused, and the biggest stupid guy of Taiyi Boss also asked, "Then what should we do?" Waiting outside? Watch you go have a good time? ”
Seeing him say this, I can't wait for my brain to collapse and wake up his head. But before I could speak, Yu Qian said it for me, and she said, "Are you stupid? Have you forgotten how you entered the temple before? Find the location of the tunnel next to the temple and dig through it to get in? ”
The so-called word wakes up the person in the dream, and this sentence is very suitable for Boss Taiyi. These two goods were like dreaming, confused, and Yu Qian's words completely woke him up.
The second cargo scratched his head with a smirk, and he didn't dare to look at me, for fear that my white eyes would kill him, so he immediately slipped away with the Yin Xuan Shovel. As for Han Chang and Zhao Zhifeng, they didn't understand at all and were in a state of confusion all the time.
And Zhou Jun was blushing, and his face was full of shame. Such a simple thing, she should have thought of it a long time ago, but she actually forgot it, she herself felt very embarrassed and ugly.
However, everyone is an adult, and the skin is not as thick as the average two. After blushing, he acted as if nothing had happened, and quickly followed Boss Taiyi and dug a hole in the ground.
Yu Qian and I still walked to the main gate, and when we were at the door, I went down
Consciousness looked up, and on the roof of the temple, there was actually a layer of black fog wafting. These black mist are very peculiar, they can actually stick around the temple without dissipating.
I don't care about it that much, as long as it doesn't fall off and doesn't cause us trouble, then I don't need to care about it.
After entering the temple, it was still pitch black inside, and the sunlight couldn't even break through the doorway, and it couldn't be sprinkled in like the starlight last night. This may be due to the excessive yin energy, which forms a reflection and blocks the sunlight.
There are so many phenomena that excessive yin energy can cause, and no one has ever recorded it. After all, there are too few places where such a dense yin qi can exist, or no one has ever been there at all, and no one can get in and out alive like us.
"Where's your candle? Click on it! "As soon as I entered the door, I asked Yu Qian to take out the candle.
When she pulled it out, I looked at it, and there was only half of it left, and the green candle flame could speed up the burning of wax. Therefore, her half can burn for dozens of minutes at most.
In the end, we didn't want to use this half of the candle, so we ended up using firefly sticks. Although this thing is also an open flame, the brightness here is much smaller than that of a candle flame, and the range of illumination is also very small. Still, that's enough for us to find our way.
When I walked in front of the mud bodhisattva, I still had a little hair in my heart, the scene of a hand appearing in the mud bodhisattva's mouth was still vivid, that thing was too terrifying, even if I knew whose hand it was, but I couldn't pass the heart barrier.
Picking up another firefly stick, I tried to get to the mud bodhisattva as much as I could, still wanting to see what was going on. But the range of the firefly stick was so short that I could only see the bodhisattva's chest, not its head.
Just as I was thinking of a way, and even the idea of beating up Yu Qian's half of the candle, I heard Yu Qian's shout behind me. When I looked back, I saw that she had climbed onto the offering table and was about to step up to the Bodhisattva's lotus platform.
This mud bodhisattva can eat people! The man leaning on it last night was devoured with our own eyes! Yu Qian actually dared to touch this mud bodhisattva, which scared me so much that I wanted to stop her.
However, it was still too late, Yu Qian put one foot on the lotus platform, and then shrank the other foot, and stood firmly on the lotus platform, just like when Boss Taiyi and I were blown up by the yin wind before.
"Huh? It's okay? "I was stunned, I couldn't believe it.
"Is it only the pedestal that swallows people?" I switched the object of suspicion again.
Then, I reached out and touched the surface of the pedestal. It's hard, it's not like it can devour people. All of a sudden, I felt my brain get cloudy, how was that man devoured last night?
"It's blood! The Mud Bodhisattva is a ghost Bodhisattva, or a vampire! If you don't get bloody, you'll be fine, but once you're bloody, something will definitely happen. Yu Qian seemed to know what I was thinking, and stood on the lotus platform and said to me with her head bowed.
I was stunned, it seemed that this was the truth. Last night we were discussing where the man's blood had gone, and the man was devoured. The man had lost too much blood but couldn't see the blood coming out, so it must have something to do with the mud bodhisattva.
If the mud bodhisattva really eats people, then when it lacks blood food, it will take the initiative to attack the blood primates!
When I think about it, I feel creepy again. If this is true, how long can a living person last it? We're running around here unscrupulously, will we end up with it? Then, was this large-scale Yin soldier borrowing incident initiated because the ghost Bodhisattva was going to eat blood?
The more I thought about it, the more terrifying it became, and the more I thought about it, the more unnatural it became. However, Yu Qian, nothing else, held a firefly stick and put it on the face of the ghost bodhisattva.
The long clay face, just like what I saw before, showed no signs of opening and closing. The scene of the opening of the mouth and the appearance of human hands that all of us saw last night seemed to be a hallucination, and it didn't appear.
"Can you see any changes?" Yu Qian held the firefly stick and looked at it carefully for a long time, and suddenly asked again.
I looked up and down, and the ghost bodhisattva looked the same as what I saw last night, the same sitting posture, the same mysterious smile, the same tightly closed mouth, nothing different. So, I shook my head, saying I couldn't see it.
"It's getting fat......" Yu Qian said suddenly.
Her words shocked me into a buzzing cry. What does it mean to get fat? It swallowed a man last night! Clay statues will gain weight if they eat people, is there anything more terrifying than this?
I subconsciously took a step back and leaned back on the offering table. Then asked Yu Qian: "I said, aren't you afraid?" A living person of such a big size swallowed it directly...... The body of the clay sculpture will also gain weight......"
Yu Qian said nervously: "If it gets fat, it means that it is full, what are you afraid of it doing when it is full?" ”
"Who would be afraid of eating too much blood? Who will throw away the food delivered to the door? Maybe this catastrophe was used to capture food and store food. I'm afraid we're all meat delivered to the door! "The more I talked, the more scared I became, and I felt like I was going to rush out of the door.
"How is that possible? It's not a living thing! How do you know the truth of storage? This kind of thing, which has a special behavior according to the nature of the material, will rest and stop reacting after only one saturation satisfaction. In my previous archaeological experience, I have seen such objects that can undergo similar phenomena, and they are of the same nature. It's just that this ghost bodhisattva is a lot bigger, and when this phenomenon happens, the movement is relatively large and terrifying. Yu Qian didn't care, and taught me a lesson by the way.
I was so skeptical by her that I was a lot less afraid. However, in the end, I didn't dare to get too close to this ghost bodhisattva.
After Yu Qian finished speaking, she jumped down, and at the same time, a swishing sound came to mind on the pile of white bones, presumably Boss Taiyi had dug through the tunnel and climbed in smoothly.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a green light to appear on the bone pile, and the panting voice of Boss Taiyi was also conveyed.
"So fast? Brother Taiyi's craftsmanship is becoming more and more mature! Yu Qian looked at the light over there and said in surprise.
I glanced at her and told her, "It's not over there, it's over there!" As I spoke, I pointed in the opposite direction, and it was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything.
"And what's going on with the lights over here?" Yu Qian was puzzled and very suspicious of my direction.
"Refraction, the yin qi is so strong here, it's not surprising that something strange happened. When you disappeared before, I saw you hit your head in front of you and bleed, but you didn't respond to it, and then I realized that I had seen an illusion. I said again.
"That's really refraction, when I was looking for that gold mine in that underground passage, I really broke my head and bled ......" Yu Qian was even more surprised, and when she spoke, she also pulled her hair to show me the scar on the top of her head, it was a very long wound, although there was no bleeding, but it was also hideous and terrifying.
I was distressed, thinking of something to say to comfort her. But she brushed her hair nonchalantly, covered her scars, and grinned at me: "Don't say those goosebumps, I don't want to listen!" I'm fine now, it's okay! ”
With that, he walked over to the pitch-black pile of bones, ready to meet the four guys.
I smiled bitterly, this girl is getting more and more gentle, and I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.
