Inside the mountain temple.
Surprisingly clean, no weeds or cobweb dust.
It can be seen that people come here frequently to clean.
If there is anything special.
There are endless thick tree roots as far as the eye can see. They emerge from the ground and criss-cross, seemingly wrapping this place into their own nest.
I can’t find where the tree’s body is!
Chen An held the skull flag in his hand and looked at the temple with vigilance.
Directly in front is a statue of a god.
The whole body is made of stone, with the head of a tiger and the body of a tiger. It is wearing armor and holding a spear eight feet long in its hand. It should have a majestic appearance, but its whole body is entangled with knotted tree roots, showing that it is dilapidated and withered. picture.
There is an offering table in front of him, with a few fruits placed on it.
"No more than two weeks."
The one-eyed owl picked up the rotten fruit and said softly: "Mr. Chen, it seems that this place is not as deserted as we imagined."
As he spoke, he looked at Qiao Bei.
The meaning in his eyes couldn't be more obvious.
"I am making a living here, Lord Tiger is the patron saint of the mountains..."
Qiao Bei explained with a smile.
"ah!"
Suddenly, Josie screamed.
But I saw that the entire temple was covered with a shallow layer of black mist at some point, and the source was the ring in Chen An's hand.
He closed his eyes slightly, and after a while, when he opened them again, his expression suddenly became alarmed and uncertain, and he couldn't find anyone!
"One-eyed owl!"
"Mr. Chen, the positioning is broken."
The one-eyed owl understood what Chen An meant and immediately took out his positioning phone. However, at some point, the screen of the phone was covered with snowflakes.
"You guys, look for someone, look for a grave!"
Chen An gave the order with a cold face.
Ever since.
Gang Xiong led the Tibetan Fox to search the mountain temple inch by inch, while the living corpse guarded the two brothers and the one-eyed owl and the pangolin searched for the tomb.
'Old Patriarch, Old Patriarch, what exactly are you planning? '
Chen An took out an ancient book from his arms. The pages were in tatters, as if they would fall apart in the next second. He carefully opened it and looked at it carefully.
After taking a closer look, it turns out that this book is about an old patriarch in his sect who was so amazing and talented thousands of years ago and how many glorious achievements he had. Reading the whole book can be understood as an autobiography of the character, and I quickly turned the page. Go to the end of the book.
The last page is very different.
Trimmed with gold wire, it looks like leaves as a whole, and the line terrain is outlined on it, which is exactly the map of the Peiling Cemetery in Daxingling.
This is the origin of the incident.
…………
What is the emphasis on spiritual practice?
The land of law and wealth.
The gold leaf map and the ancestor's grave contain the first two items.
Dharma weapons, exercises, and practice resources.
Is Chen An jealous? Of course he is jealous.
But there are specialties in the art industry, and he understands this.
So he ordered the one-eyed owl to do this.
Seriously speaking, Chen An didn't have much hope. After all, it was a thing from a thousand years ago, and it was a secret discovered by chance. Who knows whether it is true or false. So after a period of fruitless searching, he put the matter behind him.
Unexpected.
After the one-eyed owl tasted the sweetness in Chen An's hands, his desire for practice became stronger and stronger. He immediately took this matter to heart and overcame the objections of several brothers. After searching for a whole year, he finally found the ancient tomb. !
Efforts will naturally be rewarded.
Chen An was overjoyed. He got the blood jade, One-Eyed Owl got the skills he wanted, and his brothers got a lot of money. But this was just to accompany the mausoleum, and the ancestor's tomb was the big one.
So, when they realized that there was something wrong with the stone's heart, the two simply used a trick to find the real master's tomb.
…………
Back to business.
Chen An gently tore off the gold leaf and looked at it in the palm of his hand.
He had a premonition.
This golden leaf will definitely play a key role.
Sudden.
There was a crunching and rotating sound.
Chen An immediately raised his eyes and saw stone pillars rising from all four corners of the temple, and a stone platform protruding from the open space in front of the altar.
"Brother, I found it!"
A shout of surprise suddenly sounded.
Pangolin's face was filled with joy. He had found the mechanism in this temple.
Just by hearing the nickname, you can tell what this person is capable of. In the One-Eyed Owl's business, whenever a fight involves a fight, the pangolin must take action. In fact, this was also the reason why Gang Xiong and One-Eyed Owl immediately rescued him in Miasma Valley.
Anyone can die, except Laoqi Pangolin!
…………
Just as the action progresses further.
Qiao Xi, who was guarded by the living corpse, was looking at the surrounding stone pillars with curiosity.
It's not thick, and the whole thing is spiral-shaped, with rich dark brown blood stains on it, and incomprehensible inscriptions engraved on it.
Suddenly, a pale ghost-like face broke into Josie's eyes. She blinked. The man was standing behind the huge tree roots, stepping on the light black mist. Gang Xiong walked past him with a gun, seemingly completely invisible.
"Mr. Chen, no one was found!"
Gang Xiong shouted.
It was at this moment that the man's cold eyes looked at Qiao Xi.
In response, Josie gave him a friendly smile.
Appear polite.
Immediately afterwards.
His eyes moved and looked towards the central open space.
Chen An walked up to the stone platform and raised his eyebrows. He saw a gap in the middle of the stone platform. The shape of the gap matched the gold leaf.
Until then.
He couldn't help but feel a little uneasy and hesitant.
If it was really the old man who set up the game, wouldn't everything he does now become a chess piece, and he will act according to his ideas step by step.
Chen An knew what this meant.
But when he thought about it again, a thousand years had passed. Even if the old man had a backup plan, was he just a piece of dough that could be kneaded by others?
then.
Chen An closed his eyes slightly, exhaled heavily, and pressed the gold leaf against the gap in the stone platform.
The sudden change.
Immediately, I saw that the gold leaves seemed to have melted, entering the inside of the stone platform and disappearing.
Time seems to be extremely long at this moment.
Chen An's eyes moved slightly uneasily.
Not long after, the entire temple shook violently, and a sound similar to the rotation of gears sounded quietly. However, the five-meter radius around the stone platform actually rotated and collapsed like a puzzle. What finally appeared in front of everyone was a bottomless pit. .
Boom...
The one-eyed owl casually threw a stone up.
After a while, I heard a slight sound of landing.
"It must be at least twenty meters." The pangolin judged.
"Can this thing be closed after we get down?" Chen An asked with squinted eyes.
"Mr. Chen, the activation of this mechanism is probably embedded in the entire mountain, and it involves some techniques that I don't understand..."
The pangolin hesitated.
Chen An didn't ask any more questions. With a thought in his mind, the billowing black mist flowed back into the ring like running water, and then he said slowly: "One-eyed owl, lead the people!"
"I understand, Mr. Chen."
Seeing the main tomb right in front of him, even with the one-eyed owl's temperament, a little fanaticism could not help but appear on his indifferent face. He pressed his palm slightly and gave the order. A living corpse carried him on its back, and the other two grabbed Qiao Xi and Qiao Bei respectively and dragged them directly to jump down into the deep hole.
"You guys go down too."
Chen An's tone was calm.
Gang Xiong, Pangolin, and Tibetan Fox looked at each other and quickly took out the rope. Without saying a word, no one was seen in the process.
In the end, only Chen An was left.
He twisted around and looked around, his eyes getting colder and colder, but without any unnecessary movement, he jumped up.
A little while.
The mysterious person hiding behind the tree slowly walked out, and then jumped directly.
The temple fell into silence.
