Chapter 332: Hades Temple
Wang Yu, Lu Ziyi and Nangong Lingxi, listening to the words of the white-bearded old man village chief, glanced at each other, and they all saw puzzled expressions in each other's eyes.
The white-bearded old man said that when his son picked up the pieces, it was when the fog didn't appear and the monster didn't appear.
In other words, the incident of his son picking up the debris had happened before the anomaly occurred in the village.
So, here's the problem.
Why, before the anomaly occurred in the village, the fragments that had already appeared were able to have an obvious restraint effect on the anomalies that occurred in the village, whether it was the diffuse fog or the monsters controlled by the mist?
Does this fragment have anything to do with the anomaly that happened in the village?
Moreover, since the matter of picking up the debris was before the abnormality occurred in the village, it means that the village was peaceful and calm at that time.
In this case, it has not yet been shown, and the fragments that can fight against fog and monsters are not just some fragments?
Why, then, did the village chief's son bring them back?
If, according to the logic of a normal person's thinking, the first reaction when you see those pieces is to treat them as garbage and throw them farther away, or rather, you will turn a blind eye.
Who would have nothing to do and take a pile of garbage home?
Wang Yu thought for a while, but he still couldn't come up with a clue, so he simply looked at the son of the white-bearded old man and the village chief, and asked, "Since, when you picked up those fragments, it was before the fog and monsters appeared. ”
"Then, at that time, they were just ordinary pieces to you. Why did you bring such ordinary pieces back to the village? And how do you know that they can deal with those monsters? ”
The village chief's son, facing Wang Yu's questioning, was stunned for a moment, and then turned his head to look at his father.
The white-bearded old man sighed again and said, "My son, he has not been very bold since he was a child, and he was just scared by you, and it is estimated that only half of his soul is left, and his brain is not good. ”
"He's in this state now, what do you ask him, he can't think of it for a while, and he doesn't know how to answer you."
"Otherwise, I'll tell you. My son is right under my nose, and I even let him do it. ”
"For him, I am a bystander who supervises him, and I, a bystander, may, know, something that he has not found out himself."
Wang Yu looked at the son of the white-bearded old man village chief, looking at his stunned expression, and he didn't know whether he was pretending to be stupid or if he was really scared stupid.
He touched his chin, looked at the white-bearded old man village chief again, thought for a while, finally nodded, and said, "Okay, your son's state, I really don't expect him to say anything." Then you can talk about it. ”
"It's just that I have to remind you, if you dare to lie to us again, then you'd better pray, the lies you made up this time will be a little more decent, and it will be a little more difficult to debunk."
"Otherwise, once I let me know that you are lying, then, I will not let any of you family go!"
"Do you understand what I said?"
"Understood! Got it! The white-bearded old man nodded his head, and even cursed: "Don't worry, what I said this time is absolutely the truth." Otherwise, let me thunder and thunder, and die without a place to bury! ”
Listening to the white-bearded old man's village chief's ruthless oath, Wang Yu raised his eyebrows, nodded, and said, "Okay, then you can say it." ”
The village chief of the old man Bai Xue also nodded, and then, he took a deep breath, as if he had made a decision, and then he said: "This matter has to start from more than 20 years ago. I don't remember exactly how many years ago. ”
"At that time, our village was completely different from what it is now. There is no fog, no monsters, and everyone can sleep at night with peace of mind, without worrying that all of a sudden, they will be in a different place. ”
"The road in the village is not impossible to walk. On the contrary, it is precisely because the road in our village connects two counties, and it is the only road that is easy to walk in this deep mountain and old forest. ”
"At that time, from morning to night, I don't know how many people would pass us from here. Like what kind of porter, small merchants and hawkers, and even, even the official sedan chair of the official master, will beat our village passing by, at that time, it was very lively! ”
"Stop, stop!" Wang Yu interrupted him and complained angrily: "Don't be there, remember how good your village was, okay?" Getting to the point! ”
The village chief of Baishu Laozi, who was originally caught in memories, was interrupted by Wang Yu's words, and his face showed a regretful expression.
He shook his head and continued, "Okay, well, since you don't want to hear it, then I'll talk about it later. ”
"My son and I, tell you that those fragments were found in the woods, and that's true, we really didn't lie to you."
"It's just...... Those fragments were not picked up, but ......" The white-bearded old man village chief hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "Before them, it was not a fragment, but a mirror! It was shattered by my son's mistake, so it was turned into pieces! ”
Mirror?
Wang Yu thought back for a moment that on the first day he came to this copy world, he once took the fragment in his hand, observed it carefully, and found that it was clear yellow, and, in the sun, there was some reflection, it really looked like an ancient bronze mirror.
It's just that the bronze mirror is ...... Bronze mirror, bronze mirror, that's a mirror made of bronze, this thing, one drop in half, is it possible, can it be broken so much?
Village chief, that son doesn't seem to have much strength, he still missed and shattered, can he break a bronze mirror so much?
Wang Yu frowned, he always felt that something was wrong, but this time, he did not open his mouth to interrupt the words of the white-bearded old man village chief, but let him continue to speak.
The white-bearded old man village chief always paid attention to the expression on Wang Yu's face, and saw him frowning, and he didn't know where his words were wrong.
But he found that the other party only frowned, but did not interrupt his words, let alone questioned himself, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and continued: "The owner of that mirror is the temple blessing of the Yama Temple. ”
"Hades?" Wang Yu raised his eyebrows, interrupted the white-bearded old man village chief again, and said, "What Hades Temple?" Tell me about this temple of Hades and that temple in detail! ”
From those fragments, being able to restrain those monsters, and even, restraining the mist, Wang Yu felt that the origin of those fragments was not simple, and it was even possible that it was inextricably linked to the anomalies that occurred in these villages.
Now, when he heard the white-bearded old man say that the mirror that had turned into those fragments came from the Hades Temple and belonged to the temple of the Hades Temple, he felt even more that the mirror was not simple!
Perhaps, he can find the root cause of the abnormality in the village through that Hades temple and that temple blessing!
In this way, isn't the hope of completing the main quest close at hand?
The white-bearded old man village chief was stunned again when he heard Wang Yu's request, but he also knew that he had no ability to refuse at all.
Therefore, he could only change his thinking again according to Wang Yu's request, organize his own wording, and said: "The Hades Temple was built in the depths of the woods. ”
"For as long as I can remember, the temple of Hades is there. Because it is the temple of the king of Hades, and the one who is enshrined is still the king of Qin Guang in the ten halls of Yama. ”
"Therefore, unlike that kind of Buddhist temple, Bodhisattva temple, and God of Wealth temple, there are often people who go to seek wealth, children, and fame. In my impression, the temple of Hades has always been deserted, and no one goes to worship it. ”
"Even ...... You understand, right? Who is not afraid of death, everyone is still very shy about Hades. So...... The temple of Hades...... How so? It is...... Many people will find ...... It's unlucky! ”
When the white-bearded old man village chief said this, he was hesitant, and he also observed the expressions of Wang Yu and the three of them from time to time, and saw that the expressions of the three of them did not react much, so he breathed a sigh of relief and continued to say:
"Because no one goes to worship, and the incense is not very vigorous, there is no one in the temple, just an old temple to celebrate."
"The old temple will come to the village to buy something after three days and two lands. However, he basically leaves after shopping, and he doesn't communicate too much with other people. ”
"Sometimes, those second-rate people in the village will go up to him and use some insulting language to provoke him, but he usually doesn't pay much attention to it."
"Anyway, it just seems mysterious."
