Chapter 168: The Gate of the Path

Looking at the white footprints on the stone wall above my head, I walked into the doorway and saw the scene inside.

This is a semi-circular burial chamber, which is not quite like a burial chamber because of its magnificent interior decoration.

As the lights flickered, I saw the stone walls around me, all of them looking like huge mirage-like palaces one after the other.

Those magnificent reliefs clearly declare the extraordinaryness of this place, which is like the fairy palace in the coffin mural.

But the only difference is the way it looks, structures that should be on the outside, but have been built inside.

It seems that the palaces in the exterior can never be reached by mortals, and what we see is always its exterior.

This distance, as if it were nothing, prevented us from touching it, but then I looked up, why couldn't this place be the place of the god-king.

The gaze wanders over these huge reliefs, from the front to the top of the head, and the higher place establishes another realm for us in the form of the inside and outside.

At the door, there is a totem of one man and one beast, with people on the left and beasts on the right, each guarding the door on its own side, preventing those who should not come in, and also welcoming those who should be here.

The man on the left, holding the lotus flower in both hands, leaned slightly, stretched out his arms in the direction of the doorway, and his eyes were tightly closed, as if he was afraid that his heart was not pious enough, and fixed his inner god in the shell of reality.

It was a kind of free fascination, welcoming the distinguished guests who came in through the door, to the place where the immortals lived.

As a guest, when I turned my head to look in the other direction, I saw another face, glaring angrily, trying to tear apart everything that could fit into my eyes and spit it into my belly.

It was a fierce beast, its name was Jairus, and when it was guarding the door, one paw had reached out, and the other was under its belly, and it seemed that when it had caught its prey, it would use its claws hidden under its belly to pull out the five organs of its prey.

The difference between good and evil, life and death, is no wonder prohibitive, but if you walk here, you will see everything outside.

There are no windows here, but the space is presented in another form, those misty wonderlands, not on the outside, but on the inside.

The long cloud bridge, the towering dome of the clouds, and the gorgeous and delicate cornices and sculptures on them are all about to emerge from the clouds.

Between the unpredictable clouds, in the unwarranted world, it has come to life, chasing the light from my eyes, and reflecting everything here into the real world.

The sky is endless, and the endless clouds cover one by one, layer upon layer, building another tall building.

The roof made of white jade, the gorgeous decoration, seems to be a painting but not a painting, and the people who see it will be taken to the sky and to the sky.

When I look at the cape of the sky, I don't know where I am, but my eyes and everything I am fascinated are condensed, which forms what I see in my eyes.

When you look up, you feel like you're in a huge VR game world, looking up and looking through the clouds, there's no boundless place to go.

But with no wings under his feet and no flying clouds around him, he still imprisoned himself in place, and let his fantasies temporarily stop in front of the curved world, leaving that huge and unfilled space, leaving a key to imagination and free to come and go.

The gaze flies through these pictures, like a figure in the clouds, flashing in front of him, disappearing into this huge painting.

Slammed by the grandeur of the spectacle, my vision was infinitely dilated, until I retreated into the corner of the doorway, my back pressed against the wall.

This tomb is really huge, I look left and right, only feel that it is semi-circular, because the wall behind me, and obvious arc, at a glance, there are also carved eaves gallery, as well as cloud towers, and other things, such as fairy picturesque, beautiful.

Looking ahead, there is a stone wall in front of you, as if it is a mirror, separating the things you want to see from the world now.

That kind of fairyland is right in front of you, but when you grope your way through, you only see a layer of exterior scenery, and the inner space is all wrapped in clouds.

When I looked at this picture in full view, I noticed that in the middle of this stone wall, there was a huge roof.

The roof of the building is very large, with two floors on the upper side, one small and one large, and at each of the four corners of the cornices stands a phoenix, and behind it the colorful wings fall on the tiled roof.

In the whole wall, the sculpture on the top of the building is very conspicuous and huge, and the other surrounding terraces, as if they were found to have become a foil, have little effect.

Looking at the roof, it was rectangular, and when I blocked the rest of the building with my arm, it looked like a coffin!

Following this bold idea, I took a step back, and there seemed to be nothing else but that.

After thinking about it, I looked elsewhere, and there were only those protruding sculptures on the stone wall behind me, and there was nothing like the roof.

I thought that if I could get over, I could try to turn it on, but at this moment, a light suddenly shot from behind me, and I was stunned, and subconsciously avoided the door, next to the devout believer.

There was the sound of footsteps in my ears, one light and one heavy, it was two people, the heavy one walked behind, and the light one walked in front.

When they reached the door, they seemed to notice the white footprints, and suddenly stopped their steps, but soon they walked in again, as if they did not care much about these strange steps.

But when the first person walked in, I took refuge in a dark corner, but I heard a familiar and long-awaited voice.

"You said, we really walked along the pathway, but how do I feel that we are getting farther and farther away from the Hades Temple, should we go back and have a look!"

The sound was so familiar, if I hadn't felt it a few days ago, but here and now, it was like the sun suddenly shining overhead, dazzling and warm.

This is Liu Ran's voice, the rhythm of her voice is very good, I have never listened to her voice so carefully, and from this ordinary sentence, I can distinguish multiple layers of meaning.

But I felt that it was them, and before I could recover from the surprise, I heard Baizhou answer, "If this is not the place we are looking for, we can only climb up the hole at the door, counting the time, they are so much earlier than us, I'm afraid ......"

Before he could finish his sentence, he stopped suddenly, because I turned on the flashlight and shone it on their faces, which changed from surprise to joy.

I don't know how I said the first thing, and when I saw them again in such a dark place, it was as if I had suddenly returned to the world.

I don't know what I was thinking, maybe my mind was blank and I didn't say a word, maybe my heart was shaking with excitement, and I said, "You're finally here!" ”

I wished I could tell them everything that had happened, but when I opened my mouth, I felt a bitterness in my throat, and I coughed a few times before I could speak.

Baizhou came over, patted me on the shoulder, and when he saw me looking up, he only comforted me, "Everything will be fine!" ”

Maybe I needed to rest, but when I closed my eyes, I looked at the door, this statue of a man and a beast, but my heart was mixed.

It seems that from this gate, there are friends who come and enemies who come out, but fortunately, they are friends.

It had never been so easy, and I lay here with my flashlight in my arms, finally closing my eyes and resting a little.

In a daze, I was woken up by a person, and when I looked up, it was Liu Ran, so I stood up and asked her what was going on?

"We came all the way, this may be the Hades Temple, but there are no other useful things nearby except for those sculptures, and there should be a passage to the inside of the Hades Temple or something, and it is even possible that the God King Mask is here!"

I've seen it before, so I naturally understand this, and what they're looking for is a god-king mask, not a tomb, so how can they see it as a temple of the underworld?

When Baizhou walked over, his eyes were also hesitant at the top of the building, probably thinking of it.

He took out the old drawing from before and pointed out a clue on it, "The project of this family tomb is huge, so the tunnel is very long; The purpose of the tunnel is to transport the sand from the excavation of the tomb, we thought it might be a long tomb tunnel, but after the restoration of the drawings, we found that this should have been sealed. ”

Tunnels? I was a little confused, and listened to Baizhou continue, "There is also the length of this embedded road, which seems to cover the entire tomb, like a canal around the city, we still have many questions about its existence before, because it is not a tomb road, it is very simple to build, after such a long time, I am afraid it has long been damaged, but I didn't expect to come here by mistake." ”
