Chapter 109: The Wooden Man
Mei Lin also wondered, the Green Dragon Hall had been abandoned for many years, how could there still be people?
The most conspicuous thing is that there is a statue more than one zhang high in the place facing the door.
Mei Lin is very familiar with it, and has seen it a few times before, this is the statue of Lu Ban.
It seems that Fan Yu is right, the Qinglong Hall was really built by the Banmen.
In the innermost part of the hall, that is, directly opposite the back of the Luban statue, there are two black doors.
Mei Lin walked straight towards the figure in the northwest corner.
At this time, Wen Ting and the others also walked in.
They also saw those figures.
I just saw Mei Lin walking towards one of the figures, and they didn't follow.
Instead, he stood alertly in front of the statue and looked around.
There was a deathly silence in the Green Dragon Palace, and only Mei Lin's footsteps could be heard.
Mei Lin had already walked behind the figure, and he used a flashlight to shine around, but he didn't find anything unusual.
Only then did he look up, and the figure was nearly a head taller than a normal person, and its body was pitch black, as if it was coated with a layer of paint.
Mei Lin touched it lightly, but it still didn't react at all.
Mei Lin turned it around violently, and what appeared in the flashlight beam was a black face.
It turned out to be a wooden man!
Mei Lin's hanging heart landed in her stomach safely.
The wooden man is done vividly, almost like a real person.
On the wooden man's feet and neck, a chain the thickness of a thumb is attached.
The chains were buried under the floor, and it was impossible to see them without moving the wooden man.
Mei Lin also wondered, was it because he was afraid that the wooden man would escape, so he locked it with chains?
But this is obviously a wooden man, how can he escape?
Similarly, there are wooden figures standing in the other corners.
On their feet and necks, too, they have a chain wrapped around them.
The chains passed under the floor and were finally attached to the limbs of the Luban statue.
Everyone looked at it for a while, but they didn't understand what was going on.
Wen Ting walked up to the statue and said, "Look, there is blood here!"
The blood was still fresh, as if it had been left just now.
It's He Shouli's blood!
They walked along the trail of blood, and finally the trail disappeared in front of the two black gates.
Obviously, He Shouli had been taken to the other side of the gate.
Wan Liang sighed and said, it is estimated that he is dead!
Wen Ting glared at Wan Liang angrily.
Wan Liang gave him a blank look and said, you guy has become a white-eyed wolf, who bites whom!
Wen Ting ignored him, but pushed one of the doors hard.
It's just that the door is so tightly closed that it can't be pushed open.
Fan Yu said, "It seems that these two doors are going to be opened from the inside.
No one from outside can get in. ”
Wen Ting asked, "Aren't we here for nothing?"
Fan Yu mouthed towards Mei Lin Nunu and said, "So you can't offend Brother Mei, if you want to go in, you have to count on him." ”
Mei Lin didn't pay attention to what they were saying, but circled around the statue.
The statue is very delicately made, and the joints are rounded so that it seems to be able to move.
Although Mei Lin was born into a family of carpenters, he had never seen such an elaborate statue.
Behind the statue, there were many deep grooves.
Xiao Zhao also saw these scratches, and he put his hand inside the scratches, the width of the scratches was about the same as his fingers.
Zhu Lei asked in wonder, could it be that these scratches were made by people?
Xiao Zhao said, "Impossible, no one has come in here for a long time, and even if there are people, they can only be dead." ”
Although there were no ordinary people present, when they heard the word "dead", their faces became ugly.
Wan Liang squatted aside and looked at the scratches, and said, "Some of the marks are still fresh, and it seems that the things inside often come out, and the statues are used to practice claws."
He Shouli may have been caught by it. ”
Xiao Zhao shook his head and said, "It's unlikely, I've never seen anyone with a tail."
Could it be something else? ”
Because everyone did see that what was entangled around He Shouli was very much like a tail.
Looking at those terrible scratches, everyone looked at each other.
It feels like the scratches are more like they were cut with an iron hook.
Yu Qun shook his head and did not speak.
Wen Ting was even more worried about He Shouli's safety, he glared at Mei Lin, and said coldly, hurry up and open the door!
Mei Lin glanced at him, as if he hadn't heard, and his gaze fell on the statue again.
Wen Ting felt a little unbearable on his face.
In the Yang Spirit Society, he is also a figure, and everyone respects him.
And Mei Lin actually regarded his words as a fart, of course he would be annoyed and angry.
He walked towards Mei Lin step by step, one hand gripping the hilt of the sword tightly.
Fan Yu hurriedly stopped him and said, "Mr. Wen, how can you ask for someone like this?"
Even if it were me, I wouldn't bother with you.
Anyway, for us, it makes no difference to go in a little early and a little late.
But you're different, if it's too late, your follower's life won't be saved! ”
Wen Ting's face was cloudy, and he finally sighed and said, "Brother Mei, I beg you, help me open the door." ”
Hearing him say this, Mei Lin walked to the black door.
Sure enough, next to the black door, in an inconspicuous place, a stone protruded slightly.
Mei Lin gently pressed the stone.
With a creaking sound, two black iron doors shrank in either direction.
As the crack in the door got bigger and bigger, everyone looked nervously at the inside of the black door.
Blood stains appeared in front of everyone again, and there was a line of bloody footprints.
The footprints were nearly twice as large as normal, and the distance between each step was more than two meters.
From this point of view, the thing that got He Shouli into must be very tall.
Wen Ting grabbed the sword in his hand, and then stepped in first.
The group followed him with flashlights in their hands.
The hallway inside the Black Gate is very spacious, and on the walls on either side, there are oil lamps every two meters.
Wen Ting stopped, and there was no movement around him.
Yu Qun took out a lighter and lit an oil lamp beside him.
The oil lamps on the walls were all connected together, one was lit, and the others were lit up one after the other.
Two bright lines stretched into the distance, and the inside of the passage became brighter.
The Qinglong Hall occupies an extremely wide area, and in the field of vision, the two bright lines finally coincide together.
It's just that it's so quiet inside the palace that you can't see anything at all.
Zhu Lei suddenly pointed not far away and said, look, there seems to be someone there!
Looking in the direction of his finger, sure enough, at the door of a door, a man was poking his head out.
He seemed to be looking this way.
Thinking of the scratches on the statue, everyone's nerves immediately tensed.
Everyone glanced at each other, and the three spirit masters of Fan Yu, Yu Qun and Wen Ting walked in the front.
They held their breath and moved closer to the man.
It was close, but the other party was still standing motionless.
Wen Ting waved his hand at everyone, signaling everyone to be more careful.
As the distance narrowed, everyone saw the face clearly.
It's what a ceremony! Wen Ting said in surprise.
He took a step and hurried over.
It's just that he has seen everyone, and He Shouli still hasn't reacted at all.
His head sticks out from inside, but his body is blocked by the door frame, as if he is frightened and does not dare to come out.
At the same time, everyone went to the gate.
saw Wen Ting standing more than a meter away from He Shouli in surprise, as if he had seen something incredible.
What's wrong? Fan Yu asked puzzled, and then walked up to He Shouli.
Through the faint light, everyone saw He Shouli's expression very strange.
His eyes widened and his mouth was open, as if there was something terrible behind him.
Mei Lin couldn't help but glance back.
There was nothing behind him but the lights on either side of the hallway.
Wan Liang's personality was a little impulsive, and he walked over and touched He Shouli's head.
The head fell with a thud.
Although Wan Liang was very bold, he was also taken aback.
Only then did he notice that there was a branch more than a foot long stuck in the door frame.
And He Shouli's head was originally stuck in the branch.
As He Shouli's head landed, everyone subconsciously took a few steps back.
Wen Ting and He Shouli had a good relationship, and seeing him die so miserably, the muscles on his face twitched a few times.
He turned his head, glared at Mei Lin, and said, "It's all because you didn't open the door for a long time, so you killed He Shouli!" ”
Mei Lin said angrily, "What does this have to do with me? If you have the ability, you go to find the thing that killed him to get revenge! ”
Wen Ting had already made up his mind that he must not let Mei Lin leave here alive!
