Lin Yi did not express his position directly, but held up the diamond umbrella and illuminated it with a flashlight, groping little by little, and walked down the stairs.
There are nine steps in total, leading to the next level. At the end of the steps, you can already see fine yellow sand.
"This scene seems familiar!"
Lin Yi muttered something in his mouth, raised his flashlight and quickly scanned the surrounding area. He was stunned on the spot.
This floor is actually a Buddhist hall, with almost the same furnishings as the one above.
The feet are covered with dense fine sand. The only difference is that there are eight statues standing on the stone platform, one more than the one above.
"It's okay, everyone, come down!"
Lin Yi shouted upwards, and everyone followed the stairs to this floor.
"Boss Lin, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the smell here, but..."
Achang sniffed around.
"You think it's a little weird here too?"
"yes."
When the large troops descended to this level, they were also stunned by the sight in front of them.
"I dare not say they are exactly the same. At least they are carved out of the same mold. However, the space on this floor is a little smaller than the previous one, and there is one more Buddha statue than the one above."
"That's normal. The closer to the tip of the pagoda, the smaller the space becomes. But the extra statue is a Bodhisattva statue."
Qian Sheng raised his head and commented.
"There are the 'Seven Buddhas' on the top and the 'Eight Bodhisattvas' on the bottom. There is nothing wrong with it. From left to right are the golden statues of the eight Bodhisattvas Manjusri, Avalokitesvara, Maitreya, Voidgarbha, Samantabhadra, Vajrapani, Remove Obstacles and Ksitigarbha. body.
The statues of the seven Buddhas above belong to the same period, the same style, and the same craftsmanship. "
Lin Yi didn't waste any time this time and went straight to the stone platform.
It's still the same position, but the decoration has been changed from lotus to a vase.
Aquarius's ears are still obviously raised.
Pressing down on both sides, an open stone door appeared again on the stone platform.
"What does this mean? Seeing that our strength is too strong, we have failed? Have we completely given up resistance?"
Wang Qiang held up his flashlight and after patrolling for a week, he came to this stone gate.
"According to previous inferences, the mechanism of this seven-story tower is based on the seven emotions of joy, anger, worry, thought, sadness, fear, and shock. After we experienced the two levels of 'fear', the two levels of 'sadness' They are all Buddhist halls, is it possible that this fifth floor is also like this?"
Lin Yi frowned and walked through the stone door. He saw the familiar nine-story staircase again. The lower floor still had exactly the same furnishings.
However, what is enshrined on the stone platform on this floor are five stupas over one meter high with different shapes.
There is a Burmese text engraved on the bottom of each stupa.
Mintun was still worshiping the Bodhisattva on the upper floor. Achang walked over and took a quick look and said:
"These five were eminent monks who once served as presiding officers in the palace temple. After their death, they placed the relics in the stupa. They should have stayed in the temple to receive incense and offerings from their descendants, but they were unexpectedly moved here by Mang Bai."
Lin Yi was not interested in who was being worshiped here. His eyes were all fixed on the stone platform at this moment.
There was a conch carved on the stone platform, but no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't find any mechanism.
In other words, they can now move freely on these three floors, but they cannot go down to the sixth floor.
"Worry, Thought, and Sadness, the three floors all have the same furnishings. There are no difficult things to deal with. I'm not used to it."
Lin Yi stood in the center of this floor, looking up and around.
To him, this was all too peaceful, almost unreasonably peaceful.
"Lao Wang, do you think this boy Mang Bai is holding back his bad intentions somewhere and is preparing to give us a violent blow?"
"Why do you have paranoia? Isn't it good that everything is fine now?
Besides, after the passion, there will inevitably be a period of 'sage time'. Isn't this normal? "
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"I'm just making an analogy. I'll ask for a hexagram later. But, having said that, isn't it a bit rude to ask for a hexagram in a Buddhist hall?"
"Good guy, your 'sage mode' is already out, why do you still care about this?"
The surrounding environment was peaceful and peaceful, and Lin Yi and Wang Qiang were finally in the mood to exchange a few words to relieve their boredom.
Everyone went through three layers in a row without any damage.
After a narrow escape from death in the front, who could have imagined that this would be the situation behind?
For safety reasons, Achang didn't miss any corner. He stopped in front of all the furnishings here for a while, but gained nothing.
"Could it be that the Burmese king suddenly had a conscience?"
Iron Hammer has no scheming and thinks about problems relatively simply.
"It would be great if this were the case. Let's go all the way to the bottom, destroy his lair, and finish the work quickly."
Wang Qiang walked around for several times without finding anything, so he and Tie Chui became "case analysts".
"Brother Qiang, tell me, why did he build three Buddhist temples here?"
"How do I know where to go? But brother Mintun said before that the Burmese king is a tyrant, this guy is heartless, how can he know the meaning of 'worry, thought, and sorrow'? Do you think what I said makes sense? "
Iron Hammer nodded seriously.
"You said that he has the most power among subordinates in the country, so he would be 'worried'?
Who can he 'think' about when he can kill his own brother with his own hands and make his biological mother angry to death?
This kind of person has nothing to do with "sadness". I guess he can laugh out loud at night. "
At this time, Qian Sheng brought Bai Lu and Min Tun to this floor.
Seeing the scene in front of them, the three of them were dumbfounded at the same time.
"Copy and paste? Or was it that when the tower was being built, the capital chain was broken, these people were fooling around, and they were just sent away by this damn ghost?"
"This is too strange. What are you trying to tell us? Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately?"
"I won't believe that the tyrant Mang Bai will lay down his butcher knife."
Lin Yi said "hmm".
“The problem is, the three floors are connected to each other, but the stairs leading to the lower floor are nowhere to be found.
Therefore, I feel that now I may only see the surface, but not the situation behind it.
While we still have some strength, we will divide our troops into three groups and look for clues on each floor to see if there is anything missing. It is now ten o'clock. We will give everyone an hour. If there is no result, everyone will come here. Layer, let’s rest on the spot, recharge our batteries, and continue working tomorrow! "
Taken together, this is more reasonable.
The grouping is still as before, with Qian Sheng and Bai Lu taking Min Tun, Wang Qiang and Tie Zhui, and Lin Yi and Achang.
Just do what you say, and the three groups are unambiguous. They each perform their duties and search for all possible useful information on their respective floors.
Time passed quickly, and an hour later, everyone came to the fifth floor to meet.
As you can imagine, there was no gain at all. It can be concluded that these are three Buddhist halls of high standard, connected to each other.
If they are laid flat on the ground, they will be three main halls dedicated to Buddha, Bodhisattva and eminent monks' relics.
Mintun took out a piece of clean clothes from his bag and wiped each stupa with a pious look.
Even the incense table and altar in front were not left alone.
After the thick layer of floating soil on the altar was wiped away, a line of Burmese text appeared on the incense table.
"Brother Lin, look, there is something here."
"What did you write about?"
"This is a Buddhist verse, which translates to: The sea of suffering is boundless, but when you turn around, you will find the shore!"
