Chapter 37: The Entrance of the Wood

Xiao Sheng and his party followed Tie Lin around the town, and in the middle and rear of the town, Tie Lin finally stopped. There is a beautifully decorated attic here, which is said to be an attic, but in fact it is only one floor above ground. It should be the ancestral hall of this town, because outside the attic, there is a plaque with three big characters written "Merit Building".

"Merit Building, are only those who have contributed to the town able to enter this ancestral hall?" Xiao Sheng asked Tie Lindao.

"Not bad. Those who contribute to the town do deserve the respect they deserve, and this is something that generations of towns have paid special attention to. Tielin replied.

"However, this guard is too strict!" Xinya didn't hold back, pointing to the heavily armed guards in front of the ancestral hall and shouting.

"Xinya, don't forget that this place has something to do with that treasure. This level of guarding is still a bit weak!" Xiao Sheng squinted at Xinya and said.

"It's still Xiao Sheng's friendliness and understanding!" Tie Lin said. "In order not to let the treasure fall into the hands of others, you must indeed be cautious!"

"Then let's go in and have a look!" Xi Yan, who was on the side, suggested.

"Okay, please!" As if waiting for this sentence, Tie Lin asked the guard to open the door without saying a word.

I thought that when I opened the door, I would see rows of spiritual seats, or some other things about the ancestors. But unexpectedly, when I opened the door, I saw another thicker gate, and only a few more guards!

"Is this ......?" Xiao Sheng asked.

"Oh, Xiao Sheng, don't be surprised. This merit building is of great significance to our wooden town, so in order to ensure the safety of the things inside, three gates were set up when it was built, and each gate had to be guarded. Tielin explained.

"I know, that is to say, behind this door, there is another one!" Xiao Sheng said helplessly. Although Xiao Sheng can understand the importance of this merit building to them, this strict defense really can't help but make Xiao Sheng suspicious.

"Let's keep going!" Now that you're here, what's the use of being suspicious?

Opening the second door, just as Xiao Sheng had just opened the third door, Xi Yan and Xinya suddenly felt that their abilities seemed to have weakened. But when you feel it carefully, the feeling disappears again.

"Brother, I can feel that the entrance of the wood is ......" Mu'er was about to say something, but Ai Li gently covered her mouth and said, "I know, you are scared in your heart, it's okay, just don't think about it." My brother will always be by your side!"

"No......" Mu'er was a little anxious, but before she could finish speaking, Ai Li motioned to Mu'er not to say any more, and silently followed Tie Lin and them in.

Mu'er was so anxious that her little face was a little red, but Xiao Sheng and the others walked too fast, and Mu'er only had time to keep up with them, and had no time to speak at all.

As soon as you enter this third door, you are greeted by a spacious hall with a number of beautiful desks, each with a life-size woodcut statue. The statues were so lifelike that they were like splitting the surface of the wooden skin, and a living person would pop out inside.

"These are the ancestors who have contributed to the town, right?" Xiao Sheng asked.

"That's right. Tie Lin looked at the wood carvings and replied.

Xiao Sheng looked around, however, he didn't see the entrance of the wood.

"The entrance to the wood is not here. Knowing what Xiao Sheng was looking for, Tie Lin reminded.

"Oh?" Seeing his mind being seen through by others, Xiao Sheng smiled awkwardly.

Tie Lin walked a few steps to the side and came to a pillar, he gently put his hand on it, only to see a green light glow, and the whole pillar turned dark green like emerald. When the green light reaches its peak, the entrance to a dark passage on the ground opens.

"Is there still room underground?" Xiao Sheng exclaimed.

"This is an underground space with a long history, and the mysterious wooden entrance is right underneath. Let's go!" said Tielin.

As Tie Lin entered, Xiao Sheng and the others followed one by one.

"Brother. Taking advantage of the gap between Xiao Sheng and Tie Lin's conversation, Mu'er wanted to say what he hadn't said just now. "The reaction I received from the wood entrance was a little different from the previous one. ”

"It's time to go. Unfortunately, Ai Li's attention was completely on Xiao Sheng's side, and Mu'er's voice was not very loud, so Ai Li didn't hear a word of what Mu'er said just now. Xiao Sheng and the others were about to go down, and Ai Li hurriedly beckoned Mu'er to follow.

"Hey, no way!" Mu'er had no choice but to endure the words in her heart and follow step by step.

The staircase is very new, it should have just been built, presumably because the original staircase was in disrepair and decayed. Not long after leaving, Xiao Sheng and the others set foot on the land again. Although it is underground, there is a strange tree growing in this underground space that can emit a faint fluorescence, so it is also well lit.

"This reaction ......" Tie Lin, who was walking around the corner in front, suddenly let out an unusually surprised sound.

"What's wrong?!" Xiao Sheng hurriedly rushed to Tie Lin, only to see a doorway blocking the road ahead.

At first glance, I thought it was made of gold, but if you look closely, you can see that only trees have a texture, and the rings are thick and long, and it seems that the wood used to make this entrance has been many years old. However, what is surprising is that in addition to its golden color, this entrance also faintly glows with green and red.

"No wonder I feel different. Looking at the two extra colors on the entrance, Mu'er said weakly.

"This ...... Why is there an extra golden yellow?!" Tie Lin's voice was filled with ecstasy in addition to the great surprise he had just revealed.

"I've been looking forward to this change for a long time!hahaha!" Tie Lin's deafening laughter echoed in the underground space, sounding a little creepy.

"Brother, I'm a little scared. Mu'er's body trembled a little.

"It's okay, don't be afraid. "Ali still trusts Mayor Tielin.

Moon Ling took the Aili siblings who hugged each other tightly in her arms.

"Mayor Tielin?" Xiao Sheng asked tentatively.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm out of shape!" Tie Lin retracted his somewhat hideous appearance just now and changed back to the iron-faced appearance. "The secret of this wooden entrance has been in my heart for too long, and I have been trying to solve it, but there has been no clue. The only change is Mu'er. As soon as Mu'er approached the entrance, a green light would flash out of the entrance, but despite this, the entrance could not be opened. So, now that a red light has appeared, Xiao Sheng's little friend should be able to understand my feelings at this time!"

"Hmm. Xiao Sheng nodded. Although this is the case on the surface, Xiao Sheng still has lingering palpitations in his heart about the laughter just now. It seems that this mayor of Tielin is not as simple as it seems.

Tie Lin didn't care so much, and couldn't wait to open the entrance. However, the entrance was not as easy to open as he imagined, and it felt as indestructible to him as before.

"Why...... Why can't it be opened!" Tie Lin was like a deflated ball, disappointed. In his voice, there was not only disappointment, but also a little unwillingness.

"I'll ...... Give it a try. Although Xiao Sheng was a little suspicious of Mayor Tielin, when he thought of his hospitality and his tolerance and kindness to the Aili siblings, Xiao Sheng still thought that he was a kind mayor. Therefore, when he is sad, I have an obligation to help him.

"Oh, then thank you Xiao Sheng. "It seems that Tie Lin still has a lot of hope for Xiao Sheng.

Xiao Sheng walked to the entrance, looking at the three colors, Xiao Sheng slowly put his hand on the wooden entrance, gathered enough strength, and pushed hard. The entrance did not open, but Xiao Sheng was shocked back a few steps by the recoil force.

"Hey—" Tie Lin sighed, and his originally somewhat colored eyes completely dimmed.

Bang~, a voice like from an ancient era sounded in this underground space, and the three colors on the wooden entrance gradually separated from the entrance, and finally turned into a three-color rainbow and disappeared behind the entrance. The discolored porch was like a huge piece of graphite at this time, Xiao Sheng stepped forward and lightly touched it, and the porch dissipated with the wind like ashes.

"Hit ...... It's open?!" Tie Lin shouted with joy.

"It seems to be!" Although Xiao Sheng didn't know what was going on, the wooden entrance disappeared in front of him.

"Now that this is opened, you ...... Let's stay here for now!" Tie Lin is like a different person, and he has become a hideous demon!

With a wave of Tie Lin's big hand, a heart beast that seemed to be the leader, with about ten retinue heart beasts, came to this underground space.
