Chapter 100: Strange Paintings and Dead Remains IV
Everywhere the fire went, we saw that a pitch-black hole suddenly appeared on the ten-foot-high walls in front of us, and each hole was almost filled with a dry corpse covered in green. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The openings were so close together that they took up almost the entire wall, and we could see no less than thirty of them.
My body shook a little. A corpse can give birth to an unknown number of fish-headed monster cubs, so how many fish-headed monsters will be born from these?
And that's just what we can see, there are potholes on the stone walls ahead that can't be lit by the fire, and there seem to be more.
Fang Wenwen suddenly shouted, "There is still one ahead?"
The disciple of the Immortal Hall was already pale, and Nuo Nuo said: "Back to the hall master, you can reach the Spirit Cave at a distance of a hundred zhang further, and from here you will reach the Spirit Cave......
He didn't finish his words, but we could all guess what he meant, and we couldn't help but be shocked again. Fang Wenwen snorted coldly, and ran forward again, I endured the shock in my heart and ran forward with them.
The distance of 100 zhang, the stone wall 10 zhang high, this height and this length, counting the hole dug by the fish-headed monster is about the size of one zhang, I can almost predict that there will be many of these caves. But all the way through, the hairs on my body seemed to fall to the ground.
The further I went, I could no longer count the number of these holes, and I only felt that they were dense, like honeycombs spread out.
Not all of these holes were filled with corpses, some of them had only two or three corpses lying at the entrances, some of them did not even have a single corpse, and many of them were even lying crookedly in the corners. There was a deathly silence, and I don't know how long the corpses had been sitting here, and a foul smell wafted through the passage.
The distance of 100 zhang is not very far for us, but running through this passage, I feel like a long time has passed. With so many caves and so many green corpses, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a mass grave, and it is terrifying to watch.
Soon after we walked, a bright light appeared in front of the passage, and we quickened our pace and walked again, and after a while, we came to the end of this passage, only to see that there was a small stone hall in front of us.
The stone hall was in ruins, the ground was scattered with large and small stones, and there was a pool in the middle, and there were five lotus basin stone pillars standing around the pool, and there were three round stone arches facing us, and nothing else.
Pang Youren and the more than 100 disciples of the Immortal Hall were gathering in front of the stone gate on the right, and at their feet was a fish-headed monster with a long body, its head had been cut off, and its body had many wounds and holes. It seemed to be dead not long ago, a long tail still twitching, and a pool of blood was running from the ground.
As soon as they saw us coming, Pang Youren and the others immediately hugged Fang Wen and said, "See the hall master." ”
Fang Wenwen waved his hand, turned around and looked at the passage behind us, and I saw that his hand holding the torch seemed to tremble again, and his face was a little pale.
Maybe he was still shocked. I also turned my head to look into the passageway. There was no firelight, and the passage was plunged into darkness again, the air was cold, and there was a faint scream of tens of thousands of people in the depths.
There are not two thousand but one thousand in the stone cave in the wall, is it? That's too many, not to mention the corpses hanging at the mouth of the cave, so that means that there are more fish-headed monster cubs born from these corpses, and there are countless of them?
At this time, Pang Youren ran over and said, "Hall Master, the entire passage has been searched, and only this one fish-headed monster has been found. As he spoke, he pointed to the fish-headed monster on the ground.
Fang Wenwen looked at Pang Youren and said a little to himself: "The cave on the stone wall has also been searched?"
Pang Youren's face froze, and he said in a low voice: "Back to the hall master, I don't know where the cave leads, so I ......."
Even if there were no fish-headed monsters in that cave, I am afraid that no one would dare to go in and investigate now. I don't know who those corpses are, but I'm afraid there are so many of them. If it had been left for a long time, it would have been very likely that the fish-headed monster outside the Shenlong Gate had been born from these corpses, but if it wasn't, then there were a large number of fish-headed monster cubs in the Shenlong Cave at this time, and we were still on the cusp.
I thought silently, thinking about the dense scene of fish-headed monster cubs nesting together. However, even if there is a fish-headed monster on these corpses, there is always a beginning and an end, right?
Who is raising these monsters?
Fang Wenwen looked around the stone hall, and suddenly took out the five-light glazed Xuantie Order from his arms, and said coldly: "Open the spiritual cave, the deity wants to enter the cave to have a look." ”
As soon as the words fell, Yang Zhixing on the side stepped forward and said, "Hall Master, now we don't know the situation in the spirit cave, it's better not to act rashly and leave this place as soon as possible." ”
"Lord of the Sheep Altar, you are also too large a large number of people, have you forgotten what we discussed before?" The Elder Burning Sun also took a step forward and said, "Now that we have entered the main altar, how can we ignore the Holy Spirit?"
Yang Zhixing turned his head to look at Lie Yang, a terrifying left eye turned, and said, "Elder Lie Sun, I have always disagreed with the previous discussion, and I have already said that the Holy Spirit was extremely unusual thirty years ago, so the Dream Hall Master ordered my Immortal Hall disciples not to step into the Spirit Cave for half a step, do you want to disobey the Dream Hall Master's orders?"
When they say Holy Spirit, they should be referring to the spirit snake, right? I was secretly surprised, it turned out that thirty years ago, Meng Youlan had explicitly forbidden the disciples of the Immortal Hall to enter the spiritual cave, according to Yang Zhixing, the Immortal Hall had already known that the blood of the spirit snake was poison? If this was the case, then why did there still be people from the Immortal Hall who took the blood of the spirit snake back then? And why did they still keep the spirit snake? It should be discarded.
I looked at Yang Zhixing, although this old man looked ugly, I didn't expect that he was also a loyal person, and he was still sticking to what Meng Youlan told him thirty years ago. I shook my head, not thinking about all this nonsense, I didn't know what they were discussing within the Immortal Hall, and I didn't want to know what they wanted to do. However, it is still not a safe place in the Shenlong Cave now, this is obvious, Yang Zhixing is right, leaving this place as soon as possible is the best policy. That's what I thought, too.
I only listened to Lieyang Dao: "Lord of the Sheep Altar, at this time and that time, now the main hall has been used as a nest to raise those fish-headed monsters, and the Holy Spirit is a holy relic of my Immortal Hall, how can you not investigate it?"
Yang Zhixing still wanted to say something, but at this moment, he heard a few sounds of "whirring", and five five-foot-high fireworks suddenly erupted from the five lotus stone basins around the pool.
Probably this is what Fang Wen said earlier about lighting the holy fire? I was a little surprised. This kind of lotus stone basin can be seen as a kind of lamp stand at first glance, but it can spit flames on its own in such a way, which must also be a kind of mechanism doorway, but it is also peculiar.
At this time, Fang Wenwen suddenly said: "Don't say more! Those who offend my Holy Church, Fang must not turn a blind eye. No matter who raised these monsters, they must also find out. As he spoke, he handed the Xuantie Order in his hand to Pang Youren on the side, and said, "Master Pang, open the Spirit Cave." ”
