Chapter 1103 The taste of the little mason
And all of this stems from the fact that I took them down the crypt.It's all my fault that I failed to protect them.
Thinking of these, I feel sore for a while.
I stopped involuntarily until Liang Yue patted me behind me.
I just realized that we can't stay here.
I quickly calmed down and stopped looking at Fatty and Shi Jin.
It seems that everything is going according to the plan of the little mason. When the three of us arrived here, we did not have our souls sucked away like the little mason. Instead, we all stood upright, which made me full of confidence in this action.
We quickly passed their position and came straight to the front of the candlestick.
At the same time, we also saw the stone jar mentioned by the little mason. The mouth of the jar is estimated to be more than two meters long, and the height is about three meters.I don't know why there is such a jar here, but behind that jar is a candlestick.
As we arrived, the candles on the candlesticks suddenly flickered a few times, puff...the candles were lit.
Just above the candlestick, there are a lot of scattered incense.This should be the Daoist incense that the little mason said.
We hurriedly picked up one each and lit it on the candle.
The Taoist incense on the table is thicker and longer than the Buddhist incense we usually use. Although it looks very old, it feels good in the hand.When the incense burned, it gave off a strong scent of incense. I felt very comfortable smelling it, as if the haze in my heart had been diluted a lot by this scent.
According to the previous plan, I was going to take the two of them to the main hall with the incense in my hand.
"Li Yang..."
At this time, Liang Yue suddenly called me softly beside me.
"Hmm..." I responded in a low voice.What the little mason said was that one cannot speak after entering the main hall of the main hall, but after lighting the Taoist incense, one can still speak a few words here.
"Don't you think our process is too smooth? Why does the process feel the same as that little mason said?" Liang Yue asked again in a low voice.
"Ah... didn't he say that, these are all from that book. They are all recorded by his ancestor..." I replied casually.
"This underground palace has existed for so many years, how could it not have changed at all?"
I shook my head: "Liang Yue, you are too suspicious. I think it should be no problem to act according to Shi Jin's plan. You mean that something went wrong when it went smoothly?"
Liang Yue also shook her head: "No. I still have a feeling for this little mason, and I never said it."
I was taken aback: "What happened to him?"
"I seem to smell a special smell on him. Of course, this smell is very weak, and it also comes and goes, but I'm sure my feeling is right. Give me some time, and I should be able to determine that What is the taste..."
"Little mason has a smell? It's normal for a man to have a little smell, not to mention that he has been in this underground palace for several days and has never taken a bath, so how could he have no smell. You smell that I still smell... "
As I said that, I moved closer to Liang Yue.
"Fuck you." Liang Yue pushed me away, then frowned and said, "Anyway, I don't think he's right."
I waved my hand, a little impatiently: "Liang Yue, don't be suspicious. We have all reached this point, we can only move forward, there is no way to retreat."
I just saw Pang Haihai and Ma Su kneeling there, my heart was like cooking oil, I wished I could get the beads of that evil person immediately and rescue them.As for Liang Yue's words, I just flashed them in my mind and didn't pay much attention to them.I think Shi Jin should be reliable. Without him, our souls might be sucked away, let alone saving lives.
Liang Yue didn't say anything more after listening to me. After all, there was no definite evidence for her question just now.At this time, Qu Kangcheng's body had basically reached its limit, and he had to breathe heavily after walking a few steps.I was also afraid that it would be unsafe to leave him outside alone, so I let him follow us.
But fortunately, after arriving here, Lao Qu's cough is much better, not as severe as before.I guess it's because the air here is relatively purified a lot.Otherwise, when we get to the main hall, I'm really afraid that he will ruin the event by coughing.
From the bottom floor of the main hall, walk up dozens of steps, and you will reach the stone jar and candlestick.Stepping up the steps from the candlestick again, it takes nearly a hundred more steps to reach the main entrance of the main hall of the Shimen Hall.
Holding the Taoist incense in our hands, we walked up the stairs step by step.
Although the little mason didn't explain it, I knew very well that he told us to light a door incense, so that the evil spirits inside would not come to us.
That is to say, the time left for us to get the bead on the forehead of the evil person is only such a time for a stick of incense.
Although this door incense is thicker and longer than ordinary Buddhist incense, even so, after this incense is burned, it may take more than an hour at most.
In other words, we have to enter the main hall of the Shimen Hall in this hour, find the corpse of the evil person, take out the bead, and then exit from the hall.
If this series of actions is placed elsewhere, it may not take 10 minutes.But here, everything has variables.The little mason also said that after entering the main hall, he didn't know the situation there either.If there is a change, we may delay more time, and it is still unknown whether it can be done smoothly.
However, judging from the previous process, it seems that my worry is unnecessary.As Liang Yue said, the previous process was too smooth, almost completely following the little mason's plan.
In any case, we can no longer turn back now, and we have to fire when the arrow is on the string.
In order to cope with sudden changes at any time, I held a door incense and walked a little forward.
I'm no stranger to holding incense and avoiding things.My third uncle and I often did this before. When we entered haunted houses and other places with a lot of yin, we would hold a piece of Buddhist incense.The effect has always been good.
So I believe that the little stonemason has a basis for us to enter the hall with Daoist incense.
In addition to the incense in my hand, I asked Liang Yue to light another torch.Otherwise, there would be almost no light inside and outside the hall.The candlelight on the candlestick went out again as we passed by.
The space in this hall is pitch black, and after the torch is lit, it is like a small star in the night sky, insignificant.
Chapter 1104 Entering the Main Hall
There are not too many steps leading to the main hall of the main hall, and we walked quickly in a hurry, and soon stood in front of the main hall.
Observing the Shimen Hall from a little farther away, it is majestic and majestic, with the momentum of swallowing mountains and rivers.Standing in the front gave me another solemn feeling.This feeling is somewhat similar to the Sanqing Hall arranged by my third uncle in the hotel, so I don't have much fear.
It is said that this is an underground palace that has been built for 200 years, and it has been isolated from the world for 200 years. It must be eerie, creepy, and goosebumps.But the main hall of Shimen Palace is not like this.
This seems to be inconsistent with what the little mason described. He said that evil people are stationed here, and they are doing some evil deeds.According to what he said, the qi here will be different, and the feelings of righteousness and evil will be completely different.
It seems that there is more righteousness than evil here, what is the reason?
We moved forward step by step, and soon approached the main hall.In front of the main hall are more than a dozen stone pillars lined up.Behind the stone pillar is the main hall.
It was different from what I imagined. When we got to the front of the main hall, we found that there was no gate in this Taoist temple.
All the places where doors and windows should be, are empty.Only the pillars on both sides stand there, supporting the heaven and the earth.
In other words, standing here, you can see the main hall of the Taoist temple, and you can also walk in directly without any obstruction.
It's just that it's dark inside now, there's no light at all, and I can smell a strong stale smell.
This smell is often found in this kind of underground building, and I don't really care about it.Because the little mason said that there is only one evil person here, and there are no other corpses, so there is no need to worry about the dead body here.
It's just that the light in this lobby is too dark. It is estimated that even if we light a torch, it will be difficult to see the overall situation of the lobby clearly.
I took a look at the Daomen incense in my hand, and it looked like it was less than a quarter burned.This made me feel a little more at ease. It seems that the speed of burning incense is not bad. If we don't encounter major troubles, we should be able to finish it within the stipulated time.
I took a deep breath and signaled Liang Yue and Qu Kangcheng to stop talking after entering.
Qu Kangcheng nodded, held the incense in one hand, and took out his measuring ruler with the other hand, and held it tightly in his hand. I found that his hand was still trembling.
I feel deeply that sometimes the environment can really change a person.
This old song, studying history and culture, especially some unofficial history for so many years, I believe that I must have entered many such underground tombs and other buildings.Not to mention well-informed, he is definitely not a timid person.
I didn't expect to come to this underground palace this time, but to experience so many dangers, so that Lao Qu, who was calm when he first came down, is a little frightened now.
Seeing the trembling of his hand holding the measuring ruler, it is obvious that he has used all his strength, which is a sign of tension.
After going down the underground palace, I have no concept of time.There is day and night outside, and it is always in darkness below.However, it is estimated that it will take two days.Although I don't know much about this kind of underground operation, staying underground for more than two days may have reached the limit of the human body.
After all, the air below here is scarce, and the air quality is extremely bad, coupled with the relatively heavy humidity and tomb gas, it is not suitable for people to stay here for a long time.
Fortunately, we have reached the core of the underground palace. After entering, on the one hand, we can get back the bead of the evil man, preventing him from being resurrected, and on the other hand, we can save the fat man and the others.
According to what the little mason said, the main source of these evil things in this underground palace is still here.If he can be disposed of, the entire underground palace should be safe.By the way, let's touch the environment in the main hall of the underground palace to see if there are any useful clues, and our goal will be achieved.And it is this goal of seeing hope that sustains our willpower.
Regarding the Qianlong Tongbao's five emperors' money, this is also an important clue that my third uncle sent me here to inquire about.
And I did the best I could.In the Nine Dragon Cauldron, we speculated that someone dropped the bag and took away the money of the five emperors, and put the blood jade in the mouth of the descendants of the royal family.And we also suspect that the king's coin was placed in another place in the underground palace.
We have walked along the way, and I think the greatest possibility lies in the main hall of the underground palace.
If I don't find relevant clues here, I don't plan to spend any more time here.When Fatty and the others are safe and sound, we will leave immediately and return to Sanyangpu Village.
With my ability, I can only do this. As for the follow-up development, I want to contact Uncle San, or wait until he arrives to make a decision.
Didn't the third uncle say at the time that he might come here later?Although I have never taken his words seriously, but this time I am afraid that if he does not come, I will not be able to do so.If he doesn't show up, I'm going home the fuck.
I was thinking wildly on one side of my head, and holding a torch on the other side, I wanted to walk into the main hall of the main hall.
At this time, Qu Kangcheng suddenly pulled me from the side, and I looked at him in a daze.
At some point, Lao Qu took out three large masks from his bag and motioned for us to put them on.I saw that this thing is just right, we can put the talisman paper in the inner layer, just enough to seal the mouth and nose, freeing our hands.
I blame Qu Kangcheng a little bit, why didn't you take out your mask earlier.It is estimated that Lao Qu often coughs, and this kind of mask should be a must-have for him.
I hurriedly took the mask, and signaled them to seal the talisman paper inside, and then put on the mask.
Our movements were also very quick, and we quickly finished these things, without any worries, under my leadership, we walked step by step to the main hall.
I don’t know if it’s my illusion, but the moment we walked through the entrance from the outside of the main hall and entered the inside, I felt as if I had broken through a barrier.Although there is no door there, it does not seem to be completely open.It is also very easy for us to break through that layer of barriers, basically without much effort.
There was no light inside, and the light of the torches in our hands seemed to be brighter than the outside, but only a little. The torches could only illuminate the area around us fairly brightly.
I found that the ground here is also paved with stone slabs, but the dust here is thicker. We walked over and brought the dust into the air.
At this time, I admired Qu Kangcheng's foresight. If we hadn't put on masks in advance, I'm afraid we would have been choked by the smoke and coughed.
Chapter 1105 Night Pearl
Although I can't see the environment of the main hall, based on my intuition, there is a lot of space here, and the surrounding area is very empty. The slight footsteps we make when we walk will be amplified here.
I clearly remember that the little mason warned us not to be surprised by what we see or hear when we enter here, but when we enter here, the world is completely dark, as if we have entered a huge black hole, where can we hear anything , let alone what to see.
I shook my head, feeling that what the little mason said may not be accurate.
As a result, this idea just popped into my mind, when I suddenly felt that the surrounding light seemed to be brighter.
I froze for a moment, thinking it was my own illusion, or that Lao Qu and the others lit another torch.
But when I looked back, Liang Yue and I were still holding a torch each, and Qu Kangcheng didn't light anything for lighting.
But standing in this main hall, it's like feeling the sunrise, and the surroundings are getting brighter little by little.And the light tends to get brighter and brighter.
I am not the only one who feels this way, Liang Yue and Qu Kangcheng also looked around curiously.
I couldn't find the strange light source either, but the light was indeed on.
This change made us very surprised and scared, because this is an underground palace, there is no power source at all, let alone a sunrise.It was still in a dark state, but it suddenly lit up, which is obviously related to our entry here.
The three of us involuntarily stood back to back, looking around vigilantly.
The light that lit up around did not last forever like the sunrise.After the light reaches a certain level, it will no longer continue to shine.
This brightness is about the same as lighting a candle in a room of a few square meters.
But you must know that this is not a room of a few square meters. It is spacious and spacious. Judging from the shape of the main hall outside, the area here is not a few hundred square meters.
Apart from this kind of light, nothing else was found on the field.
This allowed us to settle down temporarily, and we also had time to look for that strange light source.
In fact, when we go down into this kind of underground palace, the most troublesome thing for us is the light source.Although we carry torches with us, as well as strong flashlights, headlights, etc., the use of such portable light sources is limited.For example, where is it not suitable to use open fire, when must open fire and so on.
And we have a lot of supplies with us, food and drink, which also prevents us from carrying more torches.Now we have few torches on us, and the battery of my headlight is almost dead.
In this environment, if there is not enough lighting, it is even more dangerous than if we are cut off from eating and drinking.
And we have persisted in the underground palace until now, and our psychology is on the verge of collapse.Light will provide us with a sense of psychological security.
Therefore, when there is light around us, although we haven't figured out where it comes from, we don't repel it psychologically, but hope that the light will be brighter.
We looked around and saw that the light was not coming from the roof.The place a few meters above the head was still dark, like a starless night sky.
Standing in our position, we can't see how high the roof is.
And we looked around and found nothing.My intuition is that the origin of this light should be related to that evil person.After all, here, that evil person is the master of the underground palace.
We just walked into the main hall, and after walking a certain distance, we also lost our sense of orientation because it was too empty and there was no reference.I didn't see where the high platform that the little mason said was.
I was thinking, maybe if I found the source of the light, I would find that evil person.
We searched around and still got no results. I suddenly figured out one thing. The method of looking for a light source like ours is not feasible.
I hurriedly extinguished the torch in my hand. The torches we carry are all simple and portable torches with a relatively simple structure, and it is relatively easy to ignite and extinguish them. few.
I extinguished the torch and signaled Liang Yue to also extinguish her own torch.
Liang Yue understood what I meant. After the torches were extinguished, there would be no light source on our side.This time, we clearly noticed that not far away, there was a faint light seeping out like a wave.
I pointed in that direction, and the three of us left the spot and walked towards the place where the light came from.
