The monster was born horribly ugly. but the head of the ox bears the face of a horse. But the body of the donkey is born of chicken feet. A dog's tail is sandwiched between its two hind legs. It gives people the feeling of being deserted and running away.

It's the same as when the male corpse just appeared. It's passing by our platform. Didn't even glance at us. Continue on the spiral slope. Running with his tongue flailing. After rounding the stone pillars for nearly a circle. We went up to the third stone platform above our heads.

Not much. There was a "boom" sound above our heads. Immediately afterwards, the spiral slope on this huge stone pillar turned slowly with several stone platforms sticking out obliquely.

Smells of blood. Carefully reminiscing about the successive encounters on this stone pillar. Suddenly I thought of something. It vaguely seemed to feel that he was very close to the answer. But I can't tell what I thought.

With the previous experience. We can all guess. The monster that had just run up should be waiting for us on the stone platform on the upper floor.

Encountering dangers is certain. I just hope it doesn't get as disgusting as the two floors downstairs. After all, it's not easy to find a chance to eat something in this underground world. If they all really vomited. It's too wasteful.

The slope is rotating though. But it's not fast. It doesn't stop us from going up.

But. As we got closer and closer to the third stone platform. The color of the liquid on the stone pillar began to change at some point. It turned from warm to cold. When we arrived at the third stone platform. It has turned into a light blue light.

On the stone platform. There is a large stone mill. Just now, the monster was grinding with its forehead against the stone rod that was sticking out. Every step tightens the flesh on the body. It seems to be very tough.

Saw that we came to the edge of the stone platform. The monster looked up. He stared at us with those brass bell-like horse eyes. The body arches slightly. A dog barked.

At this time. The vague concepts that had been in my mind were finally clear. I've vaguely guessed what happened to these things. I even vaguely guessed what new encounters we would have in the future.

I looked up. Look up. Sure enough, I saw that the stone platform above my head was as expected, and there were still three floors left.

"Reincarnation. Six ways. It is the six realms of reincarnation. I whispered my speculation.

The six realms of reincarnation are a concept in Buddhism. Whether it is Tibetan Buddhism or Buddhism after Sinicization. They all firmly believe that there is reincarnation in the world. There are six courses in total.

The six realms of reincarnation are further divided into the three good paths and the three evil paths. Among them, the three good paths are the heavenly paths. the path of assura and the path of the world; The Three Evil Realms are divided into animal realms. The Hungry Ghost Road and the Hell Road.

Buddhism believes. After death, a person goes through a short transition period. Then you will fall into the six realms of reincarnation. According to the degree of good and evil in the person's life. There are different teachings for each rebirth.

The worst of them are thrown into hell. Went through the torment of one hundred and thirty-six hells. to repay the sins of past lives. It is the most painful of the six paths. There is no specific color. Everything is in the form of smoke.

Above the Hell Road. It's the Hungry Ghost Road. There is less suffering than hell. It is reddish in color. Reputedly. The hungry ghost was born of a ghost mother. From birth to death, he suffered from hunger and thirst.

Above the Hungry Ghost Road. It's the way of the beast. It is the least suffering of the three evil realms. Driven to slavery. Taste the hardships of your labor. It is pale blue in color.

Regardless of color. Or features. The three stone platforms we passed through all correspond to the one that the Three Evil Realms represent. In addition, there are three stone platforms overhead. Plus this huge platform corresponds to reincarnation. Therefore. I have reason to believe my speculation.

Others don't seem to know much about the six realms of reincarnation. But there should be a little bit of understanding. After being reminded by me. It's all a sudden realization. Learn me to look upwards too. They all nodded.

This time. I understand.

Those frescoes on the outer walls of the labyrinth. It must be some life scenes from the Six Paths. The spiral represents the transition period of the reincarnation gap.

Come to think of it. I had more doubts.

Whether this place is an altar or a tomb. Who built it? What exactly is the purpose of construction?

Come to think of it. I look at the countless hanging coffins on the top. I can't help but feel pity.

These people may be buried here because of their belief in the six realms of reincarnation. It doesn't matter if their souls are already in reincarnation or not. But their flesh is destined to rot here and turn into dry bones. and forgotten by posterity.

The monster barked at us dogs a few times. See we didn't pay attention to it. Obviously some anger. It used that pair of chicken feet to draw a few circles on the ground. He lowered his head and slammed into us with the two horns on his head. It seems to be trying to disembowel us intruders with sharp horns. I want us to die a good death.

But. We've been able to overcome a lot of obstacles to get here. It proves that we are not a monster like it.

I dare not even say it. I don't need to make a move. As long as Leng Yue alone, he can easily solve it.

Just when I was thinking like this. Leng Yue had already strode towards the monster.

The moment they were about to meet. Leng Yue violently turned a small half circle with one foot as the axis. A hand stretched out like lightning. Firmly grasped one of the monster's horns. Shengsheng pulled it so that it couldn't take a step forward.

Cold Moon's green eyes flashed. The power in his hand increased violently.

Just listen to a crisp "click". He broke the horn of the bull alive.

"Reward." Leng Yue said. casually threw the broken horn to Shen Dali. Then hold an iron chopstick in each hand. Plunge under the monster. Lift it hard. Causes the monster to "purr" to the side and flips its head.

Shen Dali instinctively caught the horns thrown by Leng Yue. Then I was startled. Withdraw your hands. He caused the horns of the bull to fall to the ground.

He shouted to Leng Yue with some annoyance, "What are you giving me this thing for." ”

Leng Yue didn't answer. One more step forward. A pair of iron chopsticks were thrust under the monster again. It's another lift. Makes the monster turn over again.

Maybe it's because the body hasn't recovered. Cold Moon after breaking off the monster's horns. Obviously, some physical strength can't keep up. After only two lifts, his face turned pale. And coughed uncontrollably.

I grabbed my sapper shovel from Maddo. shouted to Shen Dali: "Use a shovel." Go and help. ”

When Shen Dali and I arrived. Leng Yue's body shook. Backed off.

Shen Dali and I have a tacit understanding of moving together. Stick the shovel head under the monster. Let's do it. His face was flushed. Finally turned the monster over again.

After repeating this several times. When the monster rolled dazed, it didn't have time to fight back. Shen Dali and I finally lifted it off the stone platform.

The current crisis was resolved. Shen Dali and I sat on the ground. Gasping for air.

I looked at the junction of the stone platform and the spiral slope. Move your gaze in the direction we came. I can't help but think to myself: above the beast road. It's the way of the world. There's something waiting for us.

Just thinking about it. Suddenly, I heard footsteps under the spiral slope.
