Chapter 271: White Gray and Black Wax
"Smack!"
The hook at the front of the soul sealing chain hook was thrown into the ground, and it was fixed quite firmly.
I tugged at the experiment, and when I realized that it was all right, I slid down the long chain into the hole.
The chain was several meters long, and with the length of the arm, the depth of several meters was canceled out, and there was no danger at all with the remaining distance of more than three meters.
With a flick of my wrist, the hook embedded in the ground detached, and my body fell freely downward, stepping on the ground in an instant.
"Whoa!" The Soul Sealing Chain Hook was retracted and wrapped around my arm, and I had landed safely at the bottom of the cave.
"Click!" There was a sound of movement from above, and when I looked up, I felt that the light had dimmed, and the flower bed had moved back to its original position, firmly blocking the entrance.
It was dark as ink for a moment.
Luckily, I have a shadow see-through charm drawn on my eyelids, and I already have night vision, otherwise I would have to see nothing, and I would have had to use a flashlight.
But in that case, it's easy for the monsters to find out first, but it's not good.
At this moment, I can see that although it is a little hazy, it is similar to the level of light on the ground near evening, and it does not affect movement.
I looked around, and the hole was about three meters in diameter.
My eyes were focused on a door on the left, yes, there was an iron door there.
It sank into the mud wall five or six inches deep, so when you looked down from above, you couldn't see the iron door.
But the person fell, and he could see it at a glance.
Undoubtedly, the dozens of half-paper figures disappeared through this iron gate.
What's behind the Iron Gate? How much space is there? Is there a big secret hidden under the Qin family's ancient mansion?
As long as you walk through this door, you should find out a thing or two.
It's an extremely simple iron gate, with no runes drawn on it, and no patterns, so it looks ordinary and can't be more ordinary.
But I didn't dare to be careless, the tip of the sword of the Ah Xi Mo sword was against the iron gate, and it pushed inward hard.
As soon as you feel your hand loose, you dodge to the other side and take a defensive stance.
If a hidden weapon comes out, it shouldn't hurt me.
This time, I thought too much.
After the iron gate was pushed in, it flashed to the right, revealing a pitch-black corridor.
The door was tucked into the wall, and no hidden weapons came out.
I waited for a moment before I dodged in, my vigilance raised to the highest level, and if I noticed something abnormal, I could fight back.
Behind me, the iron door flashed out and forward, closing the spot.
Visibility was reduced again, and my vision became hazy, but I still wouldn't use the flashlight, the darkness was a protection.
I turned my head to look at the stone wall.
After entering the Yongdao, I found that this is all built with stones, and after a distance, the Yongdao is much wider, with a height of two meters and a width of about two meters.
"What a horrible splendor this is? How much financial and human resources do you have to use to create such a level of tunnel in the underground of an ancient house? The Qin family's ancient mansion is really amazing! ”
I sighed a few times and moved on.
When he reached the cornering position, he pressed against the wall on his side, and did not dare to turn directly, but tentatively threw over the soul sealing chain hook, and heard the movement of the chain hook hitting the wall, proving that there was no monster hiding on that side, so he let go of the corner.
As soon as I turned the corner, I was stunned, my eyes lifted up, and I looked straight at one wall.
There is a colorful mural on it, the wall skin is lifted, mottled and peeled off a lot, it is vaguely seen that it is a god sitting on the lotus platform, but the face is seriously peeled off, and the original appearance can not be seen, and a large number of hands are stretched out behind it.
"The thousand-armed form of the Great Compassion Guanyin?"
My first instinct was this, but when I looked closely, I realized that I was wrong.
Because, the gesture of those hands is so weird.
They reach forward, fingers curled, and they look like ......!
I stretched out my hand and gestured, my pupils narrowing suddenly.
It is confirmed that the posture of these hands, although the angles are different, but looking at the condition of their exertion, they all seem to be choking, more like digging out the heart!
There were a few hands clasping something, and if you looked closely, it was a small baby.
The baby was so small that I wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't looked closely.
The babies had distorted and pained looks on their faces.
The cold air rushed out of my bones, my body stiffened like a stone, and I shouted in my heart: "This is by no means the mural of Guanyin of Pudu Sentient Beings, but some kind of evil god mural!" In the secret corridor under the Qin family's ancient mansion, there was a mural of the evil god, what kind of moth do you want to do? ”
I took out my phone with a solemn face, the flash flashed again and again, and I took more than a dozen high-definition photos of the evil god mural before putting away my phone and moving on.
After walking dozens of meters, it was another curve.
I stopped suddenly, a bright light flashed in my mind, and I suddenly remembered Wu Xiaoqian's 'weird shadow'.
On the same day, she came to the door with Qin Chopsticks and others to apologize, and I accidentally found that Wu Xiaoqian's shadow had changed abnormally, and it only lasted for a moment, but I could see clearly that Wu Xiaoqian's shadow appeared densely 'feet'.
If so, if you compare the mural of the evil god with the shadow of Wu Xiaoqian, is there a similarity? Those feet on Wu Xiaoqian's shadow, could it be that they are the hands on the mural of the evil god?
So, what do the two seem to have in common?
I stood there pondering for a few minutes, still having no idea.
Shaking his head, he didn't think about it anymore, after approaching the corner, he repeated the trick, used the soul sealing chain hook to explore the way, and made sure that there was no danger, so that he would really turn the corner.
Avoiding being attacked by monsters is the most necessary code of action, and it should not be taken lightly.
As you move forward, you look at the left and right walls, but you don't come across a second mural.
At some point, I stopped again, crouched down, and took a closer look at the ground.
It is all paved with stone bricks and looks smooth and smooth.
With a deep groan, I pulled out the mineral water, unscrewed the lid, and poured the water on the stone bricks.
The water flowed, slowly, but in a straight direction, without stopping.
I felt that the ground was flat, in fact, it was gradually oblique to the ground, that is to say, the real underground space is very deep from the ground, it may be tens of meters deep, or more than 100 meters deep.
"How can it be as terrifying as entering the underworld?"
I cursed a few times, took a sip of water, put away the mineral water, and moved on.
There is always a corridor in front of me, a boring scene, it seems that there is never an end, and I even wonder if I am spinning around in a few corridors, because, I have encountered a ghost hitting the wall?
In this case, I marked the stone wall of the Yongdao with the Ah Bi Mo sword, but then, I did not encounter the marked Yongdao.
Just when I was about to run out of patience, there was a sudden movement in the darkness, like a large number of mosquitoes flying in one place buzzing.
I was shaken and quickened my pace.
The huge stone door appeared in front of me, I didn't hesitate, pushed open the stone door and flashed in, sticking to the wall and moving forward, there was a faint candlelight flickering in front of me.
Yes, it's definitely a dim candlelight, not a yin glow.
Shifting to my position, I lay on my side on the ground and poked my head out to observe.
The eye catches the eye with candles all over the space.
This underground space is very large, and at first glance, I am afraid that there are more than 500 square meters? About five meters high, seven or eight stone pillars carved with coiled dragons stand upright, facing the underground space.
Black, white, and gray candles are lit and placed in various corners, flickering with candles.
It's all candles in cool tones, there are no warm tones, and who knows how black candles are made? I don't care anyway.
I lay on my side, my eyelids throbbing violently.
Because, not far away, there are dense 'people', half-paper people!
They all knelt on the ground, muttering strange language, and kowtowing to a stone statue in front of them.
It was a hideous stone statue, three meters and a half high, with hundreds of arms stretched out from its back.
Similar to the appearance on the mural of the evil god, this is an evil god statue!
In front of the statue was a stone altar on which five unconscious people were placed, all tied with ropes.
If you are not mistaken, the people who are tied up are Qin Xuqi, Wu Xiaoqian, and their three dog-legged sons, Zong Nanran, Zhuang Hao, and Guan Leiyang.
"Five people at the altar? The multi-armed Evil God Statue? Half-paper people kneeling collectively? Heavens, this is the rhythm of sacrificing five great living people to the evil gods! ”
I immediately understood what was going on in front of me, and my nerves tensed for a moment.
