Taoist Priest Chapter 85 The apse

Director Ouyang told us about shamanic sacrifices and burial rituals, so that it can be deduced that this underground palace is likely to be a temple, that is, this is not an ancient relic at all, but an ancient tomb......

Everyone immediately showed an expression of disbelief after hearing this, but Director Ouyang didn't explain much, but directly stretched out his hand and pointed to the end of the corridor and said to us: "Let's go, let's go to the apse and have a look, maybe there is the answer we want!" ”

With that, he strode over, and we followed......

At the end of the corridor was a half-open white marble door, and we could see a bright fire flickering inside......

Because the door does not open and close enough, the scope we can see is very limited, we can only see a huge brazier in the middle of the apse that looks like a furnace, and around this giant brazier there are some black shadows, as for what it is, I can't see clearly......

At this time, Song Laodao suddenly stepped forward and made a gesture to Director Ouyang, signaling him to go in first to explore the way, and then flashed into the door......

But just a few seconds after he entered the room, he suddenly turned around and ran out, and then he made a silent gesture to us, and told us with his mouth that there was something going on......

All of us became nervous in an instant, and hurriedly dodged behind the palace gate......

After we hid ourselves, Song Lao Dao told us in a very low voice, saying that there were many people inside kneeling in one direction, as if they were holding some kind of ceremony......

After hearing his words, all of us immediately frowned, thinking how could there still be people in this ghost place? Could it be the remnants of the Holy Dharma Sect? But after thinking about it, I felt that it was wrong, the Red Lady and the others and many of their subordinates had already died just now and fled, and Song Laodao also said that the people inside were holding some ceremony, which means that the people in this apse cannot be the remnants of the Holy Law Sect, but if not, who would it be? Could it be that there is another force in this hellish place?

For a while, each of us had a look in our eyes full of questions, and we all had an urge to go in and find out......

Finally, I still couldn't hold back the curiosity in my heart, and without waiting for Director Ouyang's instructions, I secretly poked my head into it and observed the situation inside......

At first, I couldn't see the situation clearly, but when I fully adjusted to the light, I immediately saw dozens of people kneeling on both sides of the brazier, and in front of the brazier sat a very burly man, whose clothes and hat could be seen clearly, looking like an ancient king, but the face was hidden in the darkness......

However, what is even more strange is that these people have always maintained a kneeling posture, without the slightest change, and one by one they look like sculptures......

When I saw this, I immediately thought of the stone statue of the Faceless Lord I had seen before, and wondered if the people in it would also be similar to the statue of the Faceless Lord.

Thinking like this, I immediately turned around and said hello to Director Ouyang and the others, and then my figure flashed and entered this strange apse......

As soon as I entered it, I felt a very strong sense of oppression that enveloped me tightly, for all but a large glowing brazier was black in the whole apse......

The clothes of the kneeling people on both sides of the brazier, the clothes of the ancient king-like people in front of them, including the surrounding walls, roofs, and floors, were all black, and this black was pitch black, as if it were splashed with ink, if it weren't for this bright brazier, I would have thought I was entering a black iron box!

In addition to these, there seems to be something else in the back of this apse, because the wall is not visible at all, as if it is a void and never ends......

After seeing the situation, I was very alert and came to the nearest kneeling figure, and then I realized that these shadows were not the faceless officials I imagined, because the official robes they were wearing were all real materials, not carved in stone, which means that these kneeling figures should be real people and not stone statues!

When I thought about it, I immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and even my breathing was a little short......

I pinched my thigh to calm myself down, and then, holding back the fear in my heart, I stabbed the man twice in the back with the tip of the Dragon's Sword......

As a result, the figure immediately fell to one side, and I could clearly see the appearance of this person by the light of the fire, but the moment I saw the appearance of this person, I was immediately frightened and took several steps backwards, and almost did not scream......

At this time, the people who stayed outside heard my movement and rushed in one after another, but when they saw the people lying on the ground, they couldn't help but gasp......

Because the man who fell to the ground was clearly a dried corpse!

If this corpse is simply a dried corpse, there is nothing to be afraid of, but the terrible thing about the dried corpse in front of him is that there is something missing on his face, the whole shriveled face, nose, and mouth are almost the same as normal people, but a pair of eyes seem to have been gouged out, leaving only two black holes, which are much more terrifying than the hideous ghost at a glance......

Seeing such a terrifying scene made everyone's scalp tingle for a while, but those of us have seen some of the world after all, so after a period of sighing, we all returned to calm......

Then we looked at dozens of other kneeling corpses one after another, but found that the rest of the corpses were also dried corpses, but the difference was that some corpses had no noses, some corpses had no mouths, while some corpses had no ears, and some even had no palms......

And the burly corpse in front of him has also revealed its true face at this moment, and it can be seen that it is sitting in an extremely upright posture, quite like an emperor, but the strange thing is that his body is intact, there is nothing missing, but a pair of eyes are extremely terrifying, because these eyes are all black eyeballs, without a trace of whites, and it looks particularly resentful......
