Lei Zi whispered in Lone Wolf's ear: "I don't think Xiaolin should be allowed to rob tombs in the future. He should change his profession to story telling."

"You can brag about anything from all over the world. We don't understand it anyway. Whatever he says is reasonable."

I glanced at Lei Zi and pushed him away: "Get out of here, you're the one going to tell stories, your whole family is going to tell stories."

"You two really don't see it at all?"

Seeing that the three of them didn't believe it, I didn't take it seriously. I looked at everyone and said slowly: "Lei Zi doesn't understand, he doesn't like to study these things."

"But Yu Jie, you still don't understand, which makes me a little surprised. You still have too much to learn, so I'm here to teach you a lesson."

I pointed to the nine-story tower in front of me and said, "Although this looks like a tower, the designer made it have multiple uses."

Then he led the three people and stood on the last step of the ninety-nine steps, looking at the nine-story tower in the center of the altar.

He opened his mouth and said to the three people: "First of all, from this position, the nine-story tower is the center of this small Temple of Heaven, and it is also the pillar of the Temple of Heaven."

"Look at the crystal on top of its head. The crystal is actually the wick. If I only light any three candles out of the four candlesticks"

"This square will not be so bright at all. There is even only a weak candlelight. It is impossible to illuminate one side, let alone as brightly lit as it is now."

When I said this, I paused, walked to the nearest candlestick, and extinguished the flame on it.

The moment the candles were extinguished, everyone's eyes went dark, and the originally bright square suddenly fell into darkness.

"Ah...that's really true."

Lei Zi didn't believe it at all a second ago, but now his eyes widened in disbelief.

The dark scene in front of him made him dumbfounded. Lei Zi immediately took out his flashlight and was about to turn it on to illuminate it.

"Xiao Linzi, I believe it this time. I quickly lit the lamp. It suddenly became so dark. It was scary."

"Tch, Lei Zi can be scared sometimes." Lone Wolf stood nearby and sarcastically said.

"This place is so dark and gloomy. Who knows when something will come out? It's better to be brighter and feel at ease." Lei Zi shuddered and held his tongue.

I lit the candle again, and the square became bright again, and I walked to the back of the nine-story tower.

Somewhat unsure, he said: "If I guessed correctly, the person who built the altar should have designed these five lamps according to the five elements."

"The five elements complement each other, and the placement of crystals must be very accurate. All ninety-nine sides must correspond to the lights."

"Then it is refracted, which is why the square space is so bright, like daylight."

"This man is really powerful. Was he designed by a human brain? This man must be very good at arithmetic."

Qin Yujie was amazed. After listening to my explanation, she also began to admire the people who built this place.

While I was watching, I was attracted by the ancient paintings on the surrounding walls. I had focused all my attention on the square just now and ignored the paintings on the walls.

I took a closer look at the paintings. The first painting showed a Taoist priest wearing a yellow robe.

"Huh...!"

When I first looked at it, I thought the old man in the painting looked familiar.

After careful observation, I realized that the person in the painting was very similar to the Taoist corpse in another part of the Three Yin Jedi.

In the painting, a Taoist is saving a group of villagers who were attacked by the plague. The painting is very vivid.

I saw a lot of corpses in the painting, they should be villagers who were killed by the plague.

There are also some villagers in the painting with painful expressions, some crying, and some looking hideous.

The scene in the painting seems to be a purgatory on earth, with corpses everywhere.

In the second painting, it was a dark swamp, surrounded by bones.

The Taoist is holding a strange plant in his hand, which looks like a flower but not a flower, and looks like a fruit but not a fruit.

The color is bright red and looks like a lip dripping with blood.

I continued to look at the third picture. The Taoist brought back the bright red plant and was boiling a large cauldron of decoction for the villagers to take.

After taking the decoction cooked by the Taoist, the plague on the villagers was eliminated, and the villagers collectively knelt down to worship the Taoist.

Arriving in front of the last painting, after the plague was eliminated in the villagers, the Taoist found a place for these villagers to settle down.

The cured villagers moved to that place with the Taoist priests and settled there.

At the end of the last painting, in an empty space, a Taoist in Taoist robes sits quietly in a large vat.

Next to the vat, a man also wearing Taoist robes was offering sacrifices to the Taoist in the vat.

The faces of the villagers in the audience were full of grief, and they all kowtowed and knelt before the Taoist's body and wailed.

After reading these four pictures, I fell into deep thought. I suddenly had a guess, and I didn't know if it was right.

These four pictures should depict the origin of the name of Taisi Village. The Taoist figures in the pictures are exactly the same as the carved stone statues.

Then the Three Yin Jedi is the tomb of this Taoist. The villagers of Taisi Village should know about the Three Yin Jedi.

Why have people here never heard of it? I shook my head. Now my head is a mess, and I try not to think too much.

Because the more I thought about it, the more complicated it became, and I couldn't understand the meaning at all. I looked at the side door and there was a corridor, and sighed.

He said to Lei Zi and Lone Wolf: "Let's keep walking. This is just an altar, and nothing else has been found."

Qin Yujie also followed behind me, looking at the altar, although it was not big, but it was built very neatly.

And when I was on the altar, I always felt a little uneasy, my soul seemed to be withdrawing, and my mind was in a trance.

"Brother Feng, do you feel that this place is different from other places?"

Qin Yujie came to me: "I always feel that something is wrong here, but I can't explain it."

"When I stepped onto the altar, it was like entering an invisible field. It felt like my life was slowly passing away."

Qin Yujie's words immediately shocked me, and I asked, "You said you have a feeling that your life force is passing away?"

Qin Yujie nodded, and when she nodded in confirmation, I was a little panicked and looked her up and down.

Qin Yujie said again: "Don't worry, Brother Feng, maybe my feeling is wrong. After all, we are not familiar with this place."

"Anything is possible. It's better to wait and walk a little further to see."

Looking at Qin Yujie next to me, I said nothing and silently thought about what to do next.

Qin Yujie looked at my somewhat heavy expression and said nothing more, standing quietly beside me.

After following me for so long, when I show this expression, I know that I must be thinking about something and haven't figured out my thoughts yet.

"Leizi, Lone Wolf, do you feel any physical discomfort?"

I looked at Lone Wolf and Lei Zi and asked, wanting to know their current situation.

The two of them shook their heads together, not feeling uncomfortable.

"Yu Jie, next, walk forward for a while and observe your own situation at any time."

"If you feel any discomfort, tell me immediately and I will send you to the Heavenly Spirit."

Seeing that I had made my decision, Qin Yujie also nodded: "I understand, Brother Feng, maybe I just felt wrong."
