Chapter 543: Faceless Stone God
"The ancestors of the Wu clan can understand it here, but how can this meadow be explained?"
Above the snow line, there was a meadow with abundant flowers and plants, and if it were not for the people who saw it with their own eyes, they would never have imagined such a wonderland.
Song Siyuan recalled the Zhipandianzi of Lotus Peak, looked at everyone and explained: "This place is indeed strange, but it is not a ghost or god reason, the Ten Thousand Eyes Cave was originally located in the lush vegetation area of the southern foothills, but the altitude is too high and close to the snow line, there is only a little snowflake, and the fall to the ground is almost negligible, and the southern foot is evergreen is a normal state." ”
"Now, at least we have a new direction, where is the palace you are talking about?"
Yue Guanchao picked up the sapper shovel and pointed to the north in the distance, the palace was half-hidden in the clouds, and could only see the eaves of the ancient palace, at this moment the sun was setting, the golden light reflected the fog, and the cascading golden yellow, as if the palace was located in the clouds, the fog was rippling, and the fireflies appeared and disappeared from time to time, and the people were excited to see it.
They waded through the mist in front of the meadow, and when they reached the mysterious palace, they could already see the outline of the whole palace through the mist.
Compared with the splendid tomb palace, this palace is much more simple, and can even be said to be rough.
The whole palace group is a three-layer staggered stone masonry soil mountain, the form is close to the word earth, each layer has the palace wall of rammed earth fan tiles, it can be seen that the gray eaves expose the palace wall, the front is built out of hundreds of stone steps, just connect the three-level earth platform, form a "concave", and the depression is the stone steps that go straight up and down!
From their position, they can directly see the highest "temple", because it is too high from the ground, after throwing away the fog interference, the scene at the high place can be seen clearly - the palace, as if there is a bloody bull's head on the height!
The first time Yue Guanchao saw the temple, he had already realized that the things here were very similar to the temple of Wucoffin Town, perhaps, Song Siyuan's words were right, the witch people here were indeed of the same origin as the Su Shen clan.
Zhang Shi realized that he had stopped, his brows furrowed tightly, afraid that Yue Guanchao would deceive, and asked with a cold face, "Why don't you leave?" ”
"Mrs. Zhang, this place is so strange, it is inevitable that there is a mechanism in it? If we go up because the trigger mechanism is dead, who will find the Soul Palace for you, at this time, only these sappers of yours can explore the way for us first. ”
These words made the old witch very unhappy, but they were also facing the current situation, they didn't even find the Soul Palace, if these people had problems at this time, it was better to let the sappers and bandits explore the way first.
Thinking of this, the old woman looked at her brother Mr. Zhang, the warlord leader signaled to the people around him, and the five-person bandit team picked up the long-pole gun and walked tentatively upward.
Yue Guanchao picked his teeth with a wooden stick in his pocket, looked ahead with a flashlight, the more he went up, the lighter the fog became, and those soldiers and bandits were also very scared when they thought about it, walking with their legs and swinging, and when they stood on a high place, poked and pounded everywhere, and made sure that there was no mechanism, they shouted and waved at them.
Everyone understood, walked into the mist and disappeared into the stairs, and the black shadows in the golden mist swayed, getting closer and closer to the temple.
This staircase, just like the dragon tail steps of the ancient imperial palace, three platforms connect hundreds of straight stone steps, looking up, the palace wall from the initial 100 meters high, as they go up, gradually become shorter, the field of vision also becomes more wide.
Under the palace walls, there are tall stone men like soldiers!
These stone figures are only beginning to take on human form, the carving is very rough, and it can only be seen that they are warriors in armor, holding primitive bronze halberds in their hands, and their facial features are never carved on their faces, only showing the ups and downs of their facial features, and they wear a forked horn iron crown on their heads, which are covered with thorns and covered with thorns, and there are small bronze bells hanging between the gaps, and every step is swaying and ringing, and the trills echo on the spacious staircase.
If you look closely, these stone figures are taller than their bodies, and their armor is carved with various pictograms of hunting, gathering, production, sacrifice, construction, and war, densely covered with colorful mysterious patterns, and as the stairs rise, the stone statues are still growing, like many faceless ancient gods, standing on the steps to protect the temple.
He looked back, and it was easy to see that the Faceless Stone Men were also staring at the sinkhole they had entered and exited, which had reduced to the size of a granary, like a black hole that was constantly devouring mist.
In just a few moments, everyone was already standing in front of the temple!
This temple is far small and almost large, the area at the moment is the same size as the courtyard, plus the stone poles carved with tiger heads and lion brains around it, with the towers on both sides, at least two sets of courtyard houses can be stuffed.
The whole temple rammed earth is the wall, the stone pillar is the frame, the bronze is the tile, the dark iron is the window, the wall of the temple is all painted into mineral red, and then the original and strange pattern is outlined with white and blue stone, the horn-shaped stone corridor on both sides is all painted white, and the bronze bell and red and white silk silk fall under the corridor.
The main body of the temple is a trapezoidal shape of the word "day" that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, the eaves of the palace have a very simple double eaves structure, the stone corridor of the horn unfolds on both sides, and is connected with the side of the hall and the building, constituting the cloister and the flying pavilion, the stone beasts on both sides stand, the flag flutters, compared to the palace, it is more like a serious sacrificial hall!
In front of the temple, there are huge faceless stone statues that are four or five times taller than them, they are both stone statues and towers, standing for thousands of years and looking at the whole meadow.
In the temple behind them, it can be seen that the doorway is locked with copper locks, and the door is covered with purple paper gold runes!
