Chapter 21: The Strange Temple
I also faintly felt something from the sprouting carrion, but I didn't disturb Miss Zhao's train of thought, wanting to hear if what she found was the same as mine.
"My suspicions are not unfounded." Zhao Anyi continued: "These red liquids are not only alive, it is as simple as repairing broken wounds, there should be another kind, I was a little skeptical before, but now I am a little sure when I see these carrion sprouts again." ”
The old man rubbed his face and said impatiently: "Surely something, you said, is it interesting to say a sentence and hide a sentence, ah... Hey....Why are you crying again, my old bastard's words are not serious. ”
"It's not your relationship." Zhao Anyi wiped away her tears, took a deep breath, and then took out the crystal bottle containing the liquid and said, "This, in fact, was hidden by my father." ”
Everyone was immediately stunned, I looked at her expression, it didn't seem like she was joking, I thought back to my previous guess, and asked, "Didn't you guess that the previous guess was hidden by another person?" Why did he suddenly become your father, it is impossible for him to hide things and then turn back, right? Could it be that there is something more important in it? ”
"No, it should have been my father alone."
Then I couldn't scratch my head anymore, I was confused by Miss Zhao, and everyone else was like me, but my eyes didn't turn in circles. Calmly put aside the complicated thoughts and asked her: "It's your father who is hiding things, and the one who died in the cave is also your father, so what does it have to do with this pile of liquid?" ”
After Zhao Anyi was excited, he took off his gas mask and rubbed his face vigorously before he said: "It's not what you think, in fact, I suspect that Dad died after hiding things, and the remains and relics we received are his, and the person in this cave is a replica." ”
Replica?
This ....imagination not only stunned us, but even felt that Miss Zhao was not talking nonsense because of a fever. Perhaps she saw our disbelief and explained: "Didn't I say that this body in the cave has only a few ribs, not even toes, and in the old photos at home, Dad is a complete person, with no congenital disabilities." ”
I still didn't believe it and said, "What if the remains are not your father?" ”
"Have you forgotten how I feel?" Miss Zhao cleaned up, let everyone continue walking, turned around and said: "That feeling of blood connection can't be wrong, and no matter what the source of these red liquids is, I will find out when I go back." ”
At this time, Hou Jun whispered to me: "Brother Yun, I found that this place seems to be a mound, I have never heard of such an evil thing, what if there is something more vicious than this thing below?" We're running out of ammunition. ”
"Our purpose is only the spiritual position, no matter what it is, as soon as we get the spiritual position, we will evacuate immediately." I didn't look back, and walked after Scar.
Hou Jun pursed his lips, but still shouted behind him: "No matter what you encounter, I will support you." ”
I nodded and beckoned to him: "Hurry up, don't talk nonsense, the party needs you to build bridges when you meet water and open holes in mountains." ”
I walked for a while, and replaced the battery of the wolf's eye twice on the way, but there was no strange thing along the way, that is, the more I went inside, the temperature dropped suddenly, not to mention, the stalactites on both sides of the stone road and even above were somewhat deformed and twisted, and they were no longer vertical, if it wasn't covered with a layer of rocks, I thought it was the rhizome of the old tree sticking out here, most of them were irregularly skewed, or lying on the ground, or burrowing into the mountain wall, it was very strange, and what was more peculiar was that some stalactites were surprisingly large, At least it's about the same thickness as the five-color brocade I've seen outside before.
"Everyone, stop, there seems to be no road ahead." Scar shook the flashlight, pointed to the black pressure in front of him, and the flashlight did not see the road surface in the past, he said: "It may be a cliff, be careful of your feet." ”
As he spoke, he stepped on every step before he slowly moved over, and when he reached the entrance of the cave, he saw him leaning down and looking down, then got up and walked back.
When he came to us, Scar was already covered in cold sweat, and said in a trance: "Below... Below....there's a big hole, a big one... Holes, can't see to the end. ”
Apparently Scar seems to have a fear of heights, damn it, I thought this guy was really born bold, it turns out that there are also fears.
However, just listening to him, we still have to look at it at all, so we came to the edge of the cliff at the entrance of the cave with everyone, and several wolves shone down with their eyes down, and below was a huge abyss with a hollow and bottomless bottom, and we seemed to be on the edge of the huge mouth, only to feel a cold wind from the bottom up on the face, and the cold skin and flesh were tightened, like a cold knife cutting through the face.
Really cold.
Not only me, but everyone else shivered and shrank back, showing how cold the wind had just been.
"What should I do?" The old man shuddered and tightened his collar.
At this moment, I didn't have any good way, I simply didn't get involved, watching them discuss, suddenly cold, I hesitated, and immediately reflexively took the wolf's eyes to look below, at the bottom of the abyss, a bean-sized shadow immediately appeared in my sight, vaguely looking like a city.
I quickly reported this discovery to the others.
When they saw the city as far away as a bean, they were stunned, and they couldn't help swallowing their saliva, and the old egg trembled and said: "I don't really want to go down, it's so deep, it is estimated that it hasn't gone down yet, and we are going to cut meat in the wind." ”
"The air will not cut the meat, at most the meat will be air-dried." The bobcat wanted to liven up the atmosphere, but after looking at the expressions of the crowd, he closed his mouth in amusement.
Suddenly, Scar's action surprised everyone, only to see him pull the rock at the entrance of the cave, leaning sideways and shining a flashlight on the other cliff, and exclaimed in surprise: "Look over there, is there a house?" ”
In the distance, where his flashlight shone, a vague silhouette appeared in the shadows, and it really looked like a house standing there, and the cliff below the house was just a boulder jutting out of the abyssal cliff face.
The more you look at this appearance, the more mysterious and abnormal it feels.
When we had all our climbing gloves ready, and carefully found a foothold and a grip point against the cliff wall and walked towards the house, less than halfway through, the old man, who was trembling with fright, said loudly: "It doesn't seem to be a house, I feel like a temple no matter how I look at it." ”
Temple? Everyone was not relieved when they heard this, and now they all focused on their feet and hands, and when they all went over and stood on the huge rock, their eyes moved, and on the top of the rock, a temple with blue and black rocks forming the body of the temple was within our sight at this time.
The eight pillars in front of the hall are profoundly carved, the pattern is entwined, although I don't know how many years have passed, most of them have been blurred by wind erosion, but we can still see the majesty and magnificence of the year, and the temple body stone is covered with dark moss, so that it looks now, highlighting the mysterious abnormality, as if there is really a god in it.
I hesitated to take a step, "How can there be a temple here, it is a bit strange that it is not a Taoist temple or a Buddhist temple from the outside." ”
"Could it be for sacrifice? Then the spiritual position may be in it. Hou Jun said immediately, looking more excited than me.
I didn't care about Hou Jun's demeanor, I just looked at the temple in doubt, wondering if it had any connection with the deeper city below, but unfortunately my IQ did not reach the level of genius, so I had to retract my thoughts, and then I noticed that the others were about to approach the temple.
