I was stunned for a moment and asked, "Devil?" What devil is enshrined?! ”

"I don't know! No one dares to go to that kind of temple, it's a place for the devil to rest! Young people should not go to the past! With that, the Uighur guide threw the sack over the low wall and stepped into the remnants of the wall surrounding the camels.

Seeing that the owner had come to feed, there was a slight commotion in the camel herd.

I took a serious look, this temple made of rammed earth took the shape of a spire, the spire had long been corroded by the desert wind and sand, and only one tower remained, like a Qing official's hat without a crown and jewels, standing bare between the broken walls. Judging from the outline, the tower body is not a cylinder in the conventional sense, but like a spinning shuttle, one end is broken, and the other end is inserted into the ground!

The shape of the temple is very strange, and it is very different from the temples where the locals worship the gods. Is it really as the Uighur guide said: this is a place to worship the devil?

Gao Mo didn't come out for a long time, didn't he really encounter something inside! After this idea popped up, I felt a lot of anxiety in my heart, and suddenly the wind under my feet ran towards the earthen temple!

The temple's round-vaulted doorway faces the direction of the campfire, and only a single lamp can barely shine here. I didn't pay attention to my feet, and when I entered the temple gate, I was kicked by the threshold, and one stumbled, and I pounced on it like a dog gnawing on a bone.

I got up, and with the light shining in from the doorway by the headlights, I searched for Gao Moli's figure in the earthen temple that was dozens of square meters square. However, after looking around, I didn't find a single figure!

A clay sculpture twice the size of an ordinary person is standing facing the temple gate, and the part above its neck has weathered into sand, which can be identified from the thick limbs, this should be a beast statue.

There is no offering table, no altar, to be exact, out of the collapsed clay sculpture, there is nothing else in this earth temple!

Where did Gao Mo leave? Has he already gone out?

Thinking so, I shouted anyway, and suddenly, a blinding beam of light flashed from behind the clay sculpture, like a sharp sword, piercing the darkness and pointing straight to the top of the tower.

I looked up, and although the spire was broken, the roof was still there, and the roof was painted with evil gods, and although the colors were mottled, I could already discern their applications! All of them were full of anger, or they were smiling, or they were angry, or they were roaring...... They all looked at the temple and looked at me physically and mentally!

I was quite puzzled, what did Gao Moli mean by hiding behind the mud statue and shining a wolf's eye flashlight on the top of the ceiling for me to see?

"Gao Moli!" I didn't understand what I meant, and shouted again. This time, he couldn't help but lower his voice, for fear of disturbing the group of evil gods on his head!

"Come down." Gao Moli finally responded, but the voice was a little empty, as if it came from underground.

I immediately understood that Gao Moli was not hiding behind the clay statue, but in the hole behind the clay statue.

Walking quickly, there was indeed a hole two or three meters wide behind the mud statue, and there was a row of white stone steps at the edge of the hole, leading to the bottom of the cave.

Gao Moli stood at the bottom of the cave four or five meters deep, saw me lying on the mouth of the cave, looked up and said, "There are murals here, you come down and take a look." ”

I answered, climbed down the stone steps with both hands, and jumped off when I was still a meter or two from the bottom of the cave.

The bottom of the cave is relatively cramped, and the entire underground space is like a funnel.

Gao Moli pointed to the wall of the cave on the side of the funnel with the beam of a flashlight, and said, "These murals seem to be a warning!" ”

"I'll see." As I spoke, I took the wolf's eyes from Gao Moli's hand and looked at the murals.

The mural has a distinctly Western style, with bright colors and vivid compositions! As a result of their years of underground preservation, the frescoes have been lightly eroded and their contents have not been damaged in the slightest.

In the Western Regions, murals are a way to convey information. These murals are kept underground, and what is on them must be very important, or very special!

The frescoes in the underground space of the temple are divided into three parts, the upper part of which depicts a camel caravan walking in the desert, and the clothes of pedestrians are black and gray. The sky was fiery red, and the desert in the distance seemed to be on fire.

Part 2: The caravan is divided into two parts, the Uyghurs in gray clothes turn around and run back on camels, and the other group of black-clothed people continue to advance towards the fiery sky on camels.

In the third part, the sand pile is littered with the broken clothes of the men in black, and the white bones, which are of various lengths, and are supposed to be the remains of black-clothed pedestrians and camels. Faintly visible, there is a faint green in the distance, which should be a rare oasis in the desert.

I looked at the skeleton of Bai Sensen on the mural and said, "This is a warning to those who enter the desert that when they see the fiery red color in the sky, they must turn around immediately, otherwise, they will be eaten by the demons they have committed?" ”

Gao Moli nodded and said, "It can be understood in this way. You see, before reaching the oasis, there was a fiery red in the sky, and there must be something terrible hidden in this fiery red halo that would kill those who tried to get close to this oasis. ”

After that, Gao Moli stared at the faint oasis on the last mural and asked, "Don't you think that the shape of this oasis is a little familiar?" ”

I was stunned for a moment, and re-examined the green, the oasis was still some distance from the white bones in front of the picture, and only an outline was drawn, and the outline was like a wide eye!

"Damn! This...... Isn't this the location of the Hades marked on the sheepskin map of the Sixth Master? I cried out in surprise.

Gao Moli snorted and said slowly: "So, this is a warning - those who try to find the Hades Palace will die in a 'sea of fire'. ”

I looked at the three murals again and confirmed that their contents were as Gao Moli said, and couldn't help but exclaim: "So, our search for the Hades may not be smooth?" ”

"Perhaps. Still, at least for sure, there's something strange about this desert. As he spoke, Gao Moli took the wolf eye beam in my hand, shone it on the white stone staircase we came down, and added, "Look at this. ”

Those white stone stairs are staggered, more than a meter long, without edges and corners, and the surface is very smooth, like a layer of enamel. Each stone staircase, without exception, is thick at one end and one is thin, like a giant pin lined up with each other.

I was confused and said to Gao Moli: "The structure of this stone staircase is very strange. It seems like...... It seems to be natural. ”

Gao Moli scanned the four or five meter-high stone steps with his wolf eyes and replied, "These are teeth, the sharp teeth of some kind of large reptile. The whole earthen temple is a huge skull! ”
