75. The ultimate goal
When I heard my grandfather say this, I was a little shaken, but I still stood there and didn't move, but asked him, "What is this place?" ”
Grandpa said, "This is the Yin Temple, why didn't you come here to find me?" ”
Not at all, I didn't want to come to the Yin Temple at all, the man said that if I wanted to know what was going on, I couldn't go into the temple and not see the well, but now I'm in the Yin Temple. Grandpa asked such a question, which completely puzzled me, and I began to wonder who was telling the truth and who was false.
I then said, "I'm not here in the Yin Temple, and I don't plan to come in here." ”
Grandpa asked me, "So what did you do here?" ”
I couldn't speak, because the words in my belly were contradictory to what I had just said, so I looked at my grandfather, and for a while I didn't know what to say, and then I suddenly thought of a question, so I asked my grandfather, "Why do you want me to go in and say, and you can't go out and talk to me?" ”
Grandpa said, "I'm stuck in here and can't get out." ”
I asked, "Why?" ”
Grandpa said, "I don't know, I can't come out." ”
When I asked about this with my loose guard, I suddenly became alert again. Then I took a step back and said, "That's a trap, isn't it?" ”
As I was talking, I suddenly heard someone shouting out to me behind me, I looked back, but saw that Eleven didn't know when he was already standing behind me, he saw me and said, "My little ancestor, you really ran to the Yin Temple." ”
This is not Eleven's Yang Soul, because his eyes are different from the Eleven I saw just now, and when I saw him, I asked, "Why did you come in too?" ”
Eleven said, "I followed the incense you lit to find it, didn't you say that you can't come in here, how did you run in, and get to such a deep place?" ”
I tried to defend myself, but found that all the explanations were in vain, so I said, "Now it's how to get out that matters." ”
Eleven said: "I said that you will have a problem the first time you go to the yin, you still don't believe it, the candle you lit at the gate of the courtyard is to guide you to go back, you only need to find the light that only you can see, and walk along the bright place to leave." ”
Then Eleven also saw my grandfather, he should have seen my grandfather, recognized it at first sight, and then whispered to me, "Isn't that your grandfather?" ”
I said, "Maybe it's a trick to confuse people." ”
Eleven nodded and said, "Let's get out of here, it's a ghost cave, and I felt something behind me when I came in, if I hadn't brought a charm, I'm afraid I would have been swallowed in my stomach by now." ”
It was only when I heard Eleven say the charm that I remembered why I could feel something beside me when I came in, but it was all right. Isn't it because I have that piece of paper?
Thinking of this, I felt a little more at ease, so I didn't care about the grandfather in the temple gate, and left with Eleven, but I didn't see the candlelight that Eleven said from beginning to end. Maybe it's the first time I walked in the shade and didn't understand these reasons, I followed Eleven around this courtyard, which was amazingly big, and it felt like it had been a long time and it seemed to be in place. I asked Eleven, "Are we on the wrong track?" ”
Eleven said, "No, I followed the candlelight, and I should be able to go back in a moment." ”
After walking for a while, the corridor suddenly disappeared, and I saw that I came to a wilderness, as if out of the Yin Temple, because there was no sense of any architecture here, and I came to the wasteland I saw for the first time, I looked behind me, and saw that the thing behind me had become gray, and there was nothing left, only a road extending to the invisible place.
I asked Eleven, "Are we out of this?" ”
Who knew that before the words came out, he saw Eleven's expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling. That look wasn't the Eleven I knew at all, I was startled, and immediately shouted, "You're not Eleven!" ”
Eleven said: "How can I trick you into coming here without some disguise, your grandfather's play is just a trick, so that you believe me in a hurry, or you will suspect that I will appear out of thin air." ”
I looked around and asked, "What is this place?" ”
Eleven said, "This is the real Yin Temple. ”
As I spoke, I saw his body begin to disappear into the gray space, and soon disappeared, leaving me alone in the middle of the wasteland, not knowing the direction or how to go.
But soon I heard someone's crying, the crying came from not far away, I tried to walk forward for a while, but I saw an old lady sitting on the side of the road and didn't know what she was crying about, I saw that she buried her head and didn't call her, so I kept looking at her, and finally saw that she didn't seem to have any reaction but kept crying and asked her, "Who are you?" Why are you crying here? ”
I saw her raise her head, it was not someone else but the appearance of a blind grandmother, but her eyes were hollow, there was nothing, it was really scary to look at, she said, "I cry here to cry for you, because you can't go back when you get here." ”
I was so startled by what she said that I asked her, "What is this place?" Why can't I go back when I get here? ”
She said: "This is the Yin Temple, the place where the souls of the dead dissipate, and although you are not the souls of the dead, you are the same as those souls. It will soon dissipate. ”
Dissipate?!
I asked her, "Is there no way to get out?" ”
"Yes," she said, "but it's the same as not having it, because you can't get by." ”
When I heard him say this, I asked, "Where?" ”
She pointed in one of the directions and said, "You will see it if you go in this direction, but I still have to tell you that once you have walked in this direction, there is no turning back." ”
I wanted to ask her something, but suddenly I saw her blindfolded with her hands, like a ghost bodhisattva. And the familiar sound of bones popping began to sound, and I saw her body twist and begin to stand up, while calling my name out of her mouth: "Xiao Mu, you are here." ”
Seeing that she had suddenly turned into a ghost bodhisattva, I followed the direction she had just pointed out without thinking, and I ran all the way, turning back as I went, until there was no trace of her. But after stopping, I saw something in front of me, and then I looked forward, it was a door, and on both sides of the door were the same things as the archway, but the front and back of the archway were empty, and I didn't know why there was a door, but when I saw the door, I remembered the person's last warning words - don't push the door when you meet it. Is this what he's talking about?
And the unexpected thing is that I didn't push the door, but the door opened on its own, but I couldn't see what was inside the door at all, I only saw a cloud of black, like pure night, and strangely enough, I just looked inside. As if I was stunned, my feet walked in little by little, and although I was resisting in my heart, the whole soul body didn't stop calling at all, as if I was being sucked in.
I walked slowly to the door, and then stepped in with both feet.
I felt like I was in absolute darkness, I couldn't see my fingers, I didn't know where I was, I looked around blankly, but I couldn't see anything, I wanted to hear anything, but in the end I couldn't hear anything, I was like a blind man with my eyes open, I didn't know where I was at all, until I heard some strange noise around me, like something hitting wood, and then I felt that I was somewhere.
I heard what seemed to be my grandfather's voice saying to me, "Wood, you've finally found this place." ”
Grandpa said as the firelight also lit up, only to see a white candle shining on Grandpa's face, it looked particularly terrifying, Grandpa put this white candle on the head of a dark coffin, by the firelight I found myself in a room, and it was full of coffins, but just at a glance I recognized where it was - this is the locked room on the north wing of our house.
