Chapter 44: Four Pictures
With this voice appeared.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang from the originally quiet City God Temple, which seemed to resound throughout the entire ghost mountain, and was even accompanied by a thunderclap.
At the same moment, the sound of rain came.
The quiet City God Temple suddenly became lively at this moment.
My heart involuntarily lifted.
I'm not sure if this sudden change had anything to do with the fact that I lit three sticks of incense.
I walked out of the second hall.
I could see at a glance that the two statues outside the second hall and outside the soul hall were facing the direction of the main hall at this moment.
And the black and white patterns on their hands are spinning rapidly.
Other than that, nothing else has changed.
I took a deep breath and walked towards the main hall again.
Sure enough, as I expected, there had been a change in the main hall at this time, and the black coffin was still there, but the position of the statue of the city god had been shifted by a figure, and a door appeared in the original position of the statue.
The entire door is black, with three things carved on it.
Long whips, sickles, clothes.
These three things correspond to the three life weapons of the village guards.
When the door was pushed open, a rotten smell came to my face, mixed with the strong smell of blood, and I could faintly hear strange sounds.
Like droplets of water dripping.
I'm sure it's not the sound of rain falling outside, because it's obviously a lot thicker.
As I listened, my heart lifted.
It's just that at this point I don't have any other choice, all I can do is go in and find out.
Behind the door is a long, narrow corridor.
The tunnel runs downwards and seems to lead underground.
Only then did I understand why there were no other buildings outside the City God Temple, and the real City God Temple should have been built underground.
And in order to get in, it is not only necessary to find those specific clues, but also to have a necessary condition.
Village watchman!
I didn't quite understand why the temple was so complicated, but my subconscious told me that I was probably very close to the truth.
It was only a few steps before I began to feel as if a pair of eyes were staring at me.
Right behind me.
But when I turned around to look, I saw nothing.
But the feeling is very clear.
I thought maybe it was my delusion, so I quickened my pace.
Although my courage is not small, but the strangeness in this City God Temple still makes me always carry my heart, and I am still a little weak in my heart when I walk alone in this kind of place at this time.
It's just that the corridor is very deep and long, and in addition, it is very narrow, and it can almost only accommodate a little more space for a normal person, so I can walk very slowly.
It took about ten minutes before I got to the bottom.
It's just that at the end, it's not the end of the road, it's just that the road extends down to a straight line, and the range is much larger, and some patterns begin to appear on the walls on both sides.
As I walked, I watched, and the more I looked, the more frightened I became.
The first picture shows a village in which the villagers seem to be living in peace, and at the head of the village there is a man who seems to be lonely.
When I saw this picture, I thought of myself, just like when I pretended to be stupid at the entrance of Niang'er Village.
The second picture also depicts a village, only this time the people in the village have disappeared, only a coffin, but there is still a person sitting at the entrance of the village, but that person is kneeling towards the village as if in repentance, and he holds a sword in his hand.
The third picture is what scares me the most.
Although it is also the same village, it has the same coffin, but there are more people inside, and those people's eyes are not painted, like a blind man.
In the sky above the village, there was a black cloud, and in those black clouds were some figures, and those figures looked like they were dancing with their teeth and claws, as if they might rush towards the village at any moment.
In addition, there is also a temple in the painting, and there is also a figure kneeling in front of the temple, like a woman.
Behind the temple gate, there seemed to be a faint figure drawn, and that figure also seemed to be holding a sword in his hand.
These four pictures seem to be separate, but in fact they give a sense of coherence.
It's like telling a story.
And this thing......
My eyelids jumped.
The truth about the massacre in Fengling Village?
Thinking of this, I subconsciously felt impossible, after all, that incident only happened a hundred years ago, and the existence of the City God Temple is obviously even older, not only that, so many people died in Fengling Village after that incident back then, even most of the people who are alive have fled from Fengling Village, and who will draw these here.
What's more, these paintings are still hidden in this hidden City God Palace.
Unless this temple was built later.
But is it possible?
I do not know.
Guard.
Confession.
Mountain......
My gaze was once again on the last painting.
The word prophecy suddenly came to my mind.
These four paintings are too much like the paintings of Fengling Village.
So is the person holding the sword in the painting the one who guards the village?
If these four paintings are really the village keeper back then, then what is he entering the City God Temple for?
slaughtered the entire village, and then entered the City God Temple......
I can't help but think of what Uncle Ghost said before.
There's something wrong with the city god here.
He didn't say what was wrong, but when we came here and met the old woman, I saw a tombstone with the word Chenghuang engraved on it.
That's not to say.
The city god here was killed by the village guard?
The more I thought about it, the more terrified I became.
No matter how powerful the village keeper is, he is just an ordinary person, but the city god is not a human, but a god!
People, how to kill gods?
It's just that Fengling Village, Ghost Mountain, and City God Temple, all kinds of experiences in the past few days are telling me that all these weirdness seem to indicate that there is indeed something wrong with the City God here.
After all, the city god protects one side.
Although the same is true of the village keeper, he is only one chosen by the city god.
But if so.
Why did the village keeper slaughter the entire Fengling Village, and then kill the city god?
I can't think about it.
It's incredible.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a small sound of footsteps, I subconsciously looked behind me, but I still didn't see any figures, but this also made me take my thoughts back.
I didn't look at the four pictures again, but after collecting my thoughts, I walked briskly towards the depths of the tunnel again.
I didn't dare to think about it anymore, because the more I thought about it, the more I thought it was outrageous.
And it doesn't really matter to me.
What I'm looking for is the Earth Immortal Sword.
It is a coffin.
That's all.
Soon I was in the depths of the tunnel.
The entrance is a strange hall.
