Chapter 69: Beast Bones
They reached a position of 100 meters near the mountain peak before they felt the pressure again, and it was obviously not as strong as it had scared them away at the beginning.
Xiao Siqi said happily: "Look, I'm right, the coercion was released before to scare us away, and it wasn't very powerful at all." ”
Dong Ting and Zhou Qingyuan were relieved when they heard this, and they both smiled.
Wei Qilin said with a smile: "Don't be happy too early, maybe that thing has completely recovered its strength, and it is just converging its coercion at this time." ”
Feng Rin nodded, "Well, that makes sense!"
When I got closer, the demon beasts at the foot of the mountain peak were completely gone, but there were still some demon beast hairs left in some places, "This is a sacrifice of flesh, blood, fur and bones!" Dong Ting said.
"It may also include sacrificing the souls of demon beasts. Zhou Qingyuan added.
Dong Ting hesitated when he saw such an evil sacrificial technique, "That'...... Shall we go in again?"
"Of course you have to go in, don't you see that the sacrifice has obviously been completed now, but the mountain peak has only cracked a few cracks, and the guy who accepted the sacrifice has not come out? That's our chance. Xiao Siqi couldn't tell them that the living creatures inside had been eaten by Xiaoqing, so she talked nonsense, but she herself sounded like she was saying a lot of reason.
The other four people did not refute Xiao Siqi's words, and the five of them walked along the crack to the mountain peak, and after walking for a short time, they came to a cave in the shape of an inverted bowl, and the cave wall was carved with zigzag tadpole-like lines, but at this time the upside-down bowl had been torn apart, and in the center of the cave was a huge beast skeleton bound by iron chains on a circular stone platform.
Seeing this scene, everyone was amazed.
"Huh, didn't the sacrifice of so many demon beasts bring it back to life?" Dongting said everyone's thoughts.
There was nothing alive in the cave except for the skeleton that was bound, and of course the skeleton was not a living thing, but the coercion did emanate from it.
There was no threat, and the five relaxed, walking around and surveying the cave.
After a circle in the cave, the five gathered in front of the beast's head.
"Do you know what this text is?" said Dongting, pointing to the lines on the cave wall.
"I guess it's some kind of sealing rune. Zhou Qingyuan guessed.
"I think this should be some kind of scripture, do you think this cave looks like a monk's bowl for begging?" Xiao Siqi said.
"Monk, what is it?" Dong Ting asked.
Is there no monk in this world? Xiao Siqi thought about it carefully, it seems that she has never seen a bald monk since she came to this world?
"Siqi should be talking about Buddha cultivation, right? I once saw a simple description of Buddha cultivation in an ancient book, and a monk is a name for a person who cultivates Buddha by mortals, just like calling us cultivators immortals. Unfortunately, the ancient book does not describe in detail the words and instruments used in Buddhist practice. The ancient books that Siqi saw seemed to have a very detailed introduction to Buddhist practice. Zhou Qingyuan said.
Xiao Siqi nodded, "That ancient book said that the most favorite thing for Buddhist cultivators to do is to take a bowl to turn into a mortal, simply put, it is to beg for food, so I thought that the bowl should be the meaning of a bowl, and when I saw this cave, I looked at it like an upside-down bowl, and I used a bowl to make utensils, and I thought of the Buddhist cultivation mentioned in the ancient books." ”
Dongting raised his head and turned his neck, and said, "I think it's really similar when you say this, if you close these cracks, there won't even be a door, isn't it just an upside-down bowl? ”
"I didn't have it with me now, I threw it in the empty courtyard, and when I returned to the sect, I will find it for you. It also said that the Buddha cultivators are bald, and they have to put nine round ring scars on their heads, and they have to abide by various precepts, one of which is that they can't eat meat. ”
"Can't eat meat?!" Dongting's eyes widened in surprise, "Then there are still people who go to cultivate Buddha?"
"It's all recorded in the ancient books, so it must be there. In addition to not being able to eat meat, you also have to quit sex!" After speaking, Xiao Siqi couldn't help but "tsk" twice.
The other four people all looked incredulous when they heard this, and Dongting shook his head and sighed: "It's too cruel!"
sighed, but in the end it was none of their business, and the five of them focused on the chains and skeletons. The bones of demon beasts can be refined, and the chains of this material can also be removed for some reason to study and study, and maybe they can still be used.
The skeleton on the stone platform is two stout hind legs standing, two short forelimbs placed on the chest, long neck, narrow long head, a mouth open to occupy half of the head, two wings on the back plus a long tail.
Xiao Siqi looked at it, and couldn't remember what kind of monster skeleton this should be, "Buddha cultivation generally takes purifying sentient beings as its own responsibility, and even made a grand wish: 'I don't go to hell, who will go to hell', 'Hell is not empty and cannot become a Buddha', if the predecessor of this beast bone is really the Buddha who suppressed him here, then it should be a fierce beast for the disaster." I just don't know what kind of beast it is. ”
Zhou Qingyuan shook his head, "I've never seen a demon beast like this. ”
Then the two looked at the East Pavilion.
Dongting waved his hand and said, "If you don't know, it's even more unlikely that I will know." ”
The three of them looked at Feng Rin.
Feng Rin said lightly: "I haven't seen it, I don't know it." ”
The four of them looked at Wei Qilin.
Wei Qilin said, "Take it back and check it." Then he swung his sword and slashed at the chains.
The sword slashed at the chain at the foot of the skeleton with an indomitable sword intent, sparks flew everywhere, and then ...... There was not a trace left on the chains.
Seeing this, Dongting laughed, "If this chain can be cut by your sword, then what kind of fierce beast will it be used to lock it." ”
Wei Qilin put away the sword and put his hands behind his back, if he was more careful, he would find that his hand holding the sword was trembling at this time, so his face was very unsightly.
Seeing this, Xiao Siqi turned Dongting elbow.
Dongting stopped laughing and touched his nose, "I didn't mean that you didn't mean to be self-sufficient. ”
Wei Qilin's face seemed to be darker.
Xiao Siqi glanced at Dongting, picked up a piece of chain with his hand and said, "I don't know what material this chain is made of, it's so hard. Then the other hand took the chain as well, and both hands tried to pull it to the sides.
And then the chains were torn off by her.
Xiao Siqi looked at the two cuts dumbfounded, she gently put the chain back in place, and wanted to pretend that nothing happened.
When she had put it away, she stood up, wiped her hands on her clothes, and looked up to find that everyone else was holding chains in both hands and staring at her with strange expressions.
"Uh...... Is there something on my face?" asked Xiao Siqi by sliding his face with the back of his hand.
