Chapter 340: The Secret of the Statue

However, there is one thing that is good, there is no moisture in this hall, and since I came in, I felt that the air inside was very dry.

After a night of fighting, everyone was tired, so they found a clean place and sat down.

"Your ancestral hall is very clean, it seems that people often come to clean it." Bai Ling'er asked casually.

Zhao Yong smiled embarrassedly, "Actually, I'm not very familiar with this place, there are only a few village elders and village doctors who can come here to worship, and juniors like me are not qualified to come here." ”

Listening to their conversation, I walked around the hall.

The furnishings here are a bit like ordinary ancestral halls, and there are many brown tablets around them, which seem to be dedicated to the elders of the village.

It's just a little strange that every generation of village doctors can also be enshrined here, and the location is relatively high.

It seems that the importance of doctors in the village is also very high, after all, it is a real achievement to be able to treat the people in the village.

After thinking about this, he turned away again, and in the middle of the main hall was an offering table with many offerings, and judging by the freshness of the fruit on it, it must have been offered not long ago.

There is a bust enshrined in the center, and the reason for this is that the stone statue is really only half of it, and the part above the waist is gone, and only a pair of long legs are left standing on the stage.

From my point of view, I always feel that the legs are a little too long, which gives people a very uncomfortable feeling, but maybe the clay sculptor master in the mountain has a limited level.

"Xiao Hang, what are you looking at, so engrossed, let's get something to eat, everyone is hungry." The fat man sat on a round futon and shouted.

With that, I turned my eyes back from the statue and turned over to bring out some food and water to share with everyone.

Everyone was also hungry, and the amount of food was twice as much as usual, and even Bai Ling'er ate two more loaves of bread.

I looked at Bai Ling'er's red cheeks, and hurriedly patted her back a few times with my hand, which allowed her to smooth out that breath.

"Don't laugh, I'm really hungry, I consume too much at night." Bai Ling'er pouted and said to me.

I hurriedly put away my smiling face, took a piece of ham sausage and stuffed it into my mouth, but then I noticed that Zhao Yong had not touched the bread and water in front of him from beginning to end.

"Guide Zhao, why don't you eat, you don't have an appetite? Do you want me to help? "The fat man is starting to be hypocritical again.

Zhao Yong just stared at the floor in front of him with a dull gaze, as if he was chewing something in his mouth, and it took a while to realize that someone was talking to him.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I just inadvertently wandered, fat man, take it and eat it, I don't have an appetite."

Seeing this scene, the senior brother glanced at Yuan Zhi, who was drinking water.

Yuan Zhi immediately understood what he meant, turned to Zhao Yong and said, "Guide Zhao, can you please find some raw glutinous rice and water tanks, if these two friends don't treat them, I'm afraid the consequences will be very bad." ”

Zhao Yong, whose expression was already a little stiff, jumped up directly from the ground when he heard this.

It was a bit too fast for a normal person, a bit like a zombie, but he didn't feel it.

"I'm going to look for it, there is still some glutinous rice at home, as for the water tank......" Zhao Yong was obviously a little embarrassed.

Yuan Zhi stood up and said, "Don't worry about this, I just saw a pool in the backyard, which may be used for fasting and purifying, and it just comes in handy at this moment." ”

"Brother Yong, please accompany Guide Zhao on a trip, in case he has bad legs and feet, you can still help."

As soon as the fat man heard this, he made an expression to this side that he knew that you had arranged this, and then followed Zhao Yong and the two out of the palace gate.

In fact, Senior Brother Yuan Yong is a little greedy, and he likes to say some witty things, but when it is really time to contribute, he is not ambiguous at all, in order to prevent Zhao Yong's corpse from changing halfway, this will not follow again.

After they left, I expressed the doubts in my heart: "Senior brother, do you think there is anything abnormal in this ancestral hall, although I can't say it for a while, but I always feel very uncomfortable in it." ”

Yuan Zhi walked around the main hall and finally stopped at the middle offering table.

He looked at the bust of clay and said, "It turns out that the little junior brother can also see it, although I don't know what is enshrined here, but it shouldn't be a serious thing, because the aura here is very abnormal." ”

As soon as he finished saying this, a cold feeling hit him, and Bai Ling'er shouted, "Who!" He slapped the ground with one hand, and his body flew out of the hall directly diagonally from the gate.

What is this girl doing, did you forget what she promised the master when she came out that she wouldn't act without permission?

Senior Brother saw that I was a little anxious, so he comforted, "Senior Sister Bai's cultivation is not weak, and she has recently received a lot of guidance from the Sect Master, you just have to rest assured, there should be nothing here that can hurt her." ”

"Even if it's me, it's not easy to catch up with Senior Sister Bai."

Thinking that this was the case, I sat down again and followed the eyes of Yuan Zhi to observe the half of the statue.

If you look closely, there are some strange textures on the legs of this statue, perhaps because they have not been rubbed much for many years, and a thick layer of dust has fallen on them.

"Is there anything like a cloth that can wipe this?" As soon as Yuan Zhi finished speaking, he turned around and searched for it in the temple.

Seeing that he was about to tear down the curtains in the temple, I hurriedly intervened to stop him, "I have this." ”

I took out a piece of dirty laundry from the Sumeru bag, jumped on the high platform and began to wipe it on top of the statue.

To be honest, it was a bit of a struggle to do this job, and every time I wiped it, a lot of dust would be splashed, and it would choke me and cough.

After a while, I finally wiped the dust off it, and I clapped my hands and jumped off the altar, looking at the mixed sweat and dust of the garment, which, alas, was scrapped.

At this time, Yuan Zhi next to him issued a "Huh? The sound attracted the attention of me and my senior brother.

"What's going on with Ash?"

"You see, the texture on the leg of this statue looks like some kind of armor at a glance, but after the junior brother wiped it clean, it was obvious that something was wrong."

"These oval-shaped lines are slightly upturned, and they are very three-dimensional, one after the other, sloping outward, and in my opinion they should be some kind of scales."

After Yuan Zhi finished speaking, he pointed to the feet of the statue, "Look again, the ash was too thick to see clearly, but now you can clearly tell that this is not a human foot." ”

"The shape of the ball of the foot is on the large side, the nails sticking out of the front are very sharp, and the side of the foot is slightly flatter than that of a normal person, in my experience, it looks like an upside-down bowl, so the grip will be very stable."

If you hadn't listened to Yuan Zhi's analysis, you would have really ignored these details, but now look at how awkward these long legs look.

I asked, "Could it be that some kind of monster is enshrined in their village?" "Please remember our web address:,,
