Chapter 364: Unsightly
I looked up at the stone gate as if I were looking up at a miracle.
This stone gate is simple and mysterious, vicissitudes of life, as if it has been standing here since the beginning of the opening of the world.
It's just that there is one thing that is not clear, what is the purpose of this stone gate here?
Is the ghost above really a hallucination?
What's in this door?
The Qilin and the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, two ancient divine beasts that have lived for endless years, also repeatedly said that they had never seen such a strange news.
"Don't think about it, let's go in and find out, don't we know everything?"
The five-clawed golden dragon couldn't bear it anymore and said, "You all take a few steps back and let me break open this stone door." ”
After that, it is about to push.
The ghost old man dodged, his arms were wide open, and he stopped in front of the door: "I can't do it, I can't make it......"
The ghost old man's behavior made me confused for a while: "Senior, if we don't break this stone door, how can we get in?" Isn't there some kind of kitkat mechanism that can't use brute force? ”
There are no shortage of such examples.
For example, in some ancient tombs, the gate seems to be extremely heavy and cannot be opened, but when it is forcibly broken through with a strong external force, it will trigger the mechanism......
The ghost old man still shook his head, sighed lightly, and did not explain: "There is no mechanism, there is another channel, you can come with me." ”
The five-clawed golden dragon had to give up.
I saw the ghost old road walk to the side of the stone gate, and under the root of the mountain not far away, a clump of grass was raised, revealing a small hole.
It stood in front of the little hole, staring at the entrance and beckoning to us, "Let's go in from here." ”
The entrance to the cave is not big, and if you want to pass through, you can only crawl in on your knees.
I have drilled a lot of holes over the years, but I really don't want to drill this hole in front of me.
Because there is a line written above the hole.
"When a Taoist priest comes to him, he needs to walk like a dog, and then kneel and bow again."
What the fuck is this?
I was furious.
This is the greatest humiliation for the Taoist priest.
The person who wrote this line clearly compared the cave to a dog hole, so that the Taoist priest who wanted to enter it had to climb into it like a dog.
To crawl is to put your hands on your knees, lower your eyebrows and bow your head, isn't it just kneeling and bowing again?
Also, he actually used the word "audience"!
The audience is the etiquette when the minister asks to see the Son of Heaven, it is just a thousand-year-old female ghost, who gave it so much courage?
"Don't be stunned, drill it."
Seeing that I was not moving, the ghost old man greeted me, and knelt down to crawl in.
I stepped in front of it, pulled it up, and pointed to the line: "Don't you see this?" Do you really think of yourself as a dog? ”
The ghost old man looked indifferent: "Isn't it just a line of words?" What's in it? You won't lose a piece of meat if you drill it. ”
"You are also a cultivator, what about your dignity? Scholars can be killed but not humiliated, it is a ghost, and it dares to let the Taoist priest kneel and worship it, what kind of system is this? ”
My words aroused the residual self-esteem of the old ghost, and it hung its head, a little depressed, like a schoolboy who had been reprimanded: "Then what do you say? Forcibly breaking open the stone door? This stone door is very strange, and no one can say what will happen when it is broken. Besides, we're here to save people, not to fight, and if we break through the stone door rashly, we're bound to alarm the devil, isn't this asking for trouble? ”
It paused for a moment, and then continued: "The big man can bend and stretch, let it be a cat hole and a dog hole, close its eyes, and crawl forward." ”
I have to admit that this is very reasonable, but this demon really deceives the Taoist too much.
After thinking about it, there was really no better way, so I had to say to Qilin: "Third child, come here and smooth out this line of words, look troublesome." ”
The unicorn was already upset, and as soon as I finished speaking, it pounced on the entrance of the cave, and with one paw went down, the rocks flew and the dust flew up, and half of the hole collapsed, and the words turned into powder.
Now, my heart is finally a little more comfortable.
Still in the order of coming, the ghost old road took the lead, followed by the five-clawed golden dragon, I followed the five-clawed golden dragon, and after the Qilin Palace, I crawled into the cave in turn.
The old ghost said that it could bend and stretch, but after entering the hole, its whole body was attached to the ground and crawled forward.
It can be seen that it is also extremely unwilling to kneel and worship.
We are not like it, we are a disembodied remnant soul, and we can't do its movements at all, so we have to crawl behind honestly.
Fortunately, this hole is not long, and it doesn't take much effort to climb to the head.
Next, we came to a passage.
The passage is about two meters high and more than one meter wide, and there are no candles inside, but it is not completely black, but it glows with a soft and faint blue light, and it is not known where the light comes from.
After looking around, I asked the ghost elder: "Senior, it seems that this place is not in the ghost gate." The ghost gate is so big, the space inside shouldn't be so small, right? ”
The ghost old man looked into the depths of the passage and said something that made people scratch his head: "Yes." ”
What do you mean?
What is it?
This is inside the ghost gate? Or am I right?
Seeing that it was a little absent-minded, I didn't dwell on this question anymore, and then asked, "Where are all the people who were captured by that demon locked up?" How do we save people? ”
I can't wait, after all, there are two ancient beasts, the five-clawed golden dragon and the unicorn, I have nothing to worry about, and I can get out of it at all.
"Let's go." The ghost old man gently spit out two words again, raised his legs and walked forward.
Suddenly, an inadvertent action caught my attention.
Since entering this passage, it has subconsciously rubbed the corners of its clothes from time to time......
When people are nervous, scared, or restless, they will unconsciously make such strange small movements.
Could it be that what is going to happen next really makes the ghost old man so at a loss?
Thinking of the words at the entrance of the cave, I guess that the devil must be a non-standard tricky and mean female ghost, who has been imprisoned by it for nearly a thousand years, and must have suffered inhuman torture and humiliation.
The passage was not long, and soon we entered a large hall.
It's dimly lit, and as soon as I entered, I saw a lot of people.
This discovery startled me a lot, and when I looked closely, it turned out to be some stone statues, not people.
"This ...... What's going on? How can there be so many stone statues? I frowned and asked.
"Alas......" the ghost old Taoist sighed, "These are all made by the devil to humiliate the Taoist priest, what a sin, a sin......"
The four of us walked straight to the center of the main hall, and I realized why the old ghost was spitting out sins.
At the same time, a wave of anger ignited in my heart.
Half of the stone statue is a Taoist priest, and half is a woman.
The woman's figure is enchanting, her eyes are like silk, and she is extremely amorous.
There are Taoist priests I know and I don't know, I know the Yuan Shi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun, Hongjun Ancestor, Kunpeng Patriarch, Taishang Laojun and other Taoist patriarchs, I don't know more, I guess it should be the ancestor of the later generations of the people.
And the reason why I am angry is because the content of these stone carvings is simply unsightly......
