Chapter 183: Inside the Temple
"In such a deep underground, how can there be a palace?" An Yi looked at the scene in front of him, and his heart was shocked.
I saw a huge space in front of me, about a dozen acres of square circle, a hundred zhang high, although there is no big stone in the space, but there are tall ancient trees, but they are all black and hard, this is missing a piece and that is missing, and each one is fossil.
The black forest is divided into two ends, and in the middle is a straight avenue paved with bluestone slabs that leads to a black palace in the center.
The palace was huge, as high as a dozen floors, and several times the size of a courtyard, and the whole was made of a kind of black stone, the surface of which was extremely smooth, and the darkness was translucent, and I don't know how many years it had been underground, and it could still maintain its appearance.
From a distance, the entire black palace has a very strange shape, not like a human habitation. Especially the black gate, fifty or sixty zhang high and more than forty zhang wide, but it is inlaid with rows and rows of blood-red gems, scattering a faint light, in this dark environment, flashing and flashing very bewitching.
In front of the door, a huge monster stood on either side. The head is like a lion tiger, the body is like a cow, the back has two wings, the hair is like a hedgehog, and the face is full of evil appearance; especially the two long fangs, like sharp swords, the monster set off is even more hideous.
An Yi took in all the scenes at a glance, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, who would live in such a big palace.
Ordinary people are only seven feet old to death, and the gate of this palace is fifty or sixty zhang, which is more than 180 meters in total, is it a titan giant?
But then An Yi shook his head, the titan giant is too. The world context simply doesn't match.
But the next moment. Comfortably, but suddenly came back to his senses. The word "witch" flashed through my mind.
In the flood novels, the Wu clan is all tall and physical, and one hundred and twenty meters is not a problem at all. It can be seen how huge the size of this witch clan is.
But novels are novels, especially the online texts of later generations, which are very different from this myth and legend, at least in the novels of the Ming and Qing dynasties. There is no such thing as a witch.
In ancient times, the traditional "Wu" was the predecessor of Taoism, and in terms of glyphs, the upper and lower horizontal Wus represented heaven and earth, and the original meaning refers to the person who can communicate with heaven and earth and descend to the gods with dance.
In the legend, the sorcerer, who understands the way of heaven, understands the principles of heaven, understands nature, has infinite power, and relieves pain. Solve confusion and solve disasters. Solve a qiē pain.
They believe that all things have spirits, and they can inspire heaven and earth through the guò spirit, and can summon all kinds of creatures to help in the war, and practice the legendary spiritism, emphasizing a kind of spiritual belief and spiritual power cultivation, so the ** power is not strong.
What is now in front of An Yi is which of these two witch clans is in line with this world. If it is the former, then there must be a witch clan in the black temple, and if it is the latter......
An Yi couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that he couldn't guess by guessing alone, so he might as well go and take a look.
After thinking about it, he immediately collected the spell, hid his figure, and cautiously approached the palace step by step.
As he walked in, An Yi noticed that the surface of the palace was not as smooth as he had imagined. On the dark walls, there are very light lines.
These many lines form a huge human shape, but although they are all similar to people, they are different shapes. Some have nine heads and a thousand eyes, and there is fire in their mouths, some have nine hundred and ninety hands, eight legs and long tails, and are tall, some have a thousand heads and two thousand hands, and their feet are on the sea, and their bodies are high in the mountains, and some are three heads and six arms, and they are angry.
These images are very ugly, with strange figures, hideous faces, and fierce looks, but most of them are men.
Among them, there are several female figures, but they are very beautiful, even if they are simply sketched with a few strokes, they also exude a strong charm, which makes people can't help but be fascinated.
An Yi couldn't help but be stunned, and a word instantly rose in his mind, not "alluring the country and the city", not "beautiful as a flower", but "Asura"!
The Asura clan, which is very famous in Buddhist scriptures, is said to be a man and an ugly woman, one of the six realms of reincarnation, living in the asura realm, opposite to the heavenly realm.
But in the flood novel, the Asura clan was created by the ancestor of the River Styx, and they have lived in the River Styx, the sea of blood, for generations, and they are also ugly in the body of the man and beautiful in the woman.
But the two are not the same thing at all!
In Buddhist scriptures, Asura is one of the six realms of the Buddha Kingdom and one of the eight gods of the Heavenly Dragon.
It is said that it is a god, but it does not have the good deeds of a god, it is said that it is a ghost, but it has the power and power of a god, and it is said that it is a human being, although it has the seven emotions and six desires of a man, but it also has the power and viciousness of a god and a ghost. Therefore, the Buddhist scriptures refer to it as a monster that is not a god, a ghost, or a human, somewhere between a god, a ghost, and a human.
The Asura Path, which is classified as the Three Good Paths in the Six Realms of Reincarnation, can live as blessed as a celestial being, but does not have the virtue of a celestial man, and I don't know if it is the privilege brought to the Asura clan by the identity of the "Eight Heavenly Dragons".
In the flood novel, Asura is completely attributed to the evil path.
In fact, Buddhism and Taoism are two completely unrelated things that cannot coexist. If you have to merge into one world, comfort can't predict what changes will occur.
The most ridiculous thing is that the translation of "celestial man" into "immortal" is still done by Buddhists, in order to combat Taoism and better preach in China.
Buddhism says that celestial beings, who live in the heavenly realm, are one of the six realms of reincarnation, and sentient beings leave the five realms because of their cultivation of the ten virtues, and are reborn in heaven and humanity to enjoy good fortune. When the blessings are exhausted, there will be a phenomenon of "five decays of heaven and man", that is, dirty clothes, wilted on the head, sweat under the armpits, smelly body, unhappy seat, etc., which means that the heavenly man is about to die.
Therefore, the "five decays of heaven and man" can only be enjoyed by "heaven and man" proposed by Buddhism, and has nothing to do with the "immortals" of Taoism.
The leader of the celestial people is called Emperor Shitian, not Haotian, not the Jade Emperor, nor Zhang Bairen.
It is ridiculous that Buddhism, in its heyday in ancient times, deducted the "five decays of heaven and man" on the heads of immortals. Claiming that Taoist immortals cannot really get off. To really take off. They also need to believe in Buddhism.
In this way, when Buddhism first arrived in China, he made up "Lao Tzu Hua Hu" to preach, and after gaining a firm foothold, he turned around and bit Taoism, saying that they were making up nonsense.
This is also the reason why An Yi has always disliked Buddhism......
An Yi stood in front of the door, thinking a lot in his head for a while, but it was not helpful to judge. He shook his head violently, shaking his chaotic thoughts away.
No matter what kind of Shura it is, it is not easy to match.
It should be cautious, it is still necessary to be cautious.
Quietly cautious, she withdrew her gaze from the wall and cast it on the door.
This look shocked him!
I saw that there was a gap between the two huge door panels at this time.
It is said to be a gap, but in fact, it is just a comparison with the door panel. The real situation, but it is just enough for one person to pass guò.
An Yi hesitated for a moment. Seeing that there seemed to be no danger, he quietly walked to the middle of the crack in the door, and looked inside.
Sticking to the cold stone slabs, I saw that the palace was not empty. The first thing that came into view was a dozen tall stone pillars, on both sides of the stone pillars, on the walls of the palace, hanging knives, bows and other weapons magnified countless times. In the center, there is a carpet made of exotic animal fur on the ground, the whole is fluffy, pale red, and there is a faint glow.
While admiring that this Shura clan would really enjoy it, An Yi looked up along the carpet, only to see that there were 12 tall steps, leading to a high platform above.
This high platform is more than ten zhang high, dozens of zhang away from him now, and although he stands low, he can vaguely see the scene above.
I saw that the most conspicuous thing was a simple and bewildering throne, and on that throne, there was a dry skeleton!
An Yi's heart was shocked, and with his current vision, he could just see the part above the knee of the dry bones.
The dry bones had six arms, each arm had a chain of white jade pearls on its wrists, and in its hands it held knives, guns, swords, bricks, maces and other weapons, hanging weakly on the ground, and its body was draped in golden chains, faintly revealing the scarlet blood and bones inside.
Although he sat there motionless, he exuded a majestic majesty to the extreme, as if he was reincarnated as a killing god, resurrected in vain, with endless killing intent, as if he wanted to crush a qiē in this world.
An Yi's pupils shrank suddenly, he had never seen such a person with such a bad spirit, and looking at this skeleton, it was clear that there was no sign of life, how could it still retain such a strong momentum?
He was puzzled and did not dare to move. Leaning quietly against the door, he only felt an awe-inspiring aura blowing across his body, like a steel knife, with a piercing chill, which made his heart tremble.
Looking at the condensed and truthful yin qi in the palace, An Yi's face was stern, and he was cautiously about to make a move, but he heard a hoarse voice echoing in the empty palace.
"Who is it?"
In just two words, it was extremely gloomy and low, which made him frightened!
An Yi raised his head suddenly, his eyes burst with bright light, staring closely at the bone frame on the throne, his heart was extremely vigilant.
He didn't know if it was the skeleton that was speaking inside, but he knew that the voice came from there.
Taking a step back slightly, Comfort's back quietly gave way to the door panel behind him, ready to retreat immediately if something went wrong.
I don't blame anyone else, it's just that the dry bones make his heart awe-inspiring by their might alone, so he has no confidence to be an enemy of them without preparation.
But it would be a bit of a shame to let him run away directly, so I saw him summon the Heavenly Demon Mingxin Sword in his hand and put on a defensive posture.
Right now!
On the ground in front of the dry bones, a drop of blood the size of an egg suddenly rose.
The drops of blood were extremely scarlet, exuding a thick fishy stench, but with a hint of sweetness, wafting in this vast palace.
An Yi's heart moved, smelling a strange smell coming from his nose, but he didn't speak.
Suddenly, I saw that the blood droplets suddenly burst out with a strange light, which was extremely dazzling in the dark environment.
When the light dissipated, a blood-colored figure floated on the high platform, quietly, watching at comfort...... (To be continued......)
