The ghost-faced Taoist priest began to think deeply after hearing this. Logically speaking, the bones beside the sarcophagus have always been there. There is no reason why Guitoutan suddenly stopped being afraid. Their abnormality must be related to this secret passage. Is there something more important below that needs them to come to? Protect?
Thinking of this grim-faced Taoist priest, he looked around again and saw that the direction of the stones could be clearly seen on the cave wall. It was obvious that this place was deliberately set aside when building the altar. It is better to say that it is a secret passage than a gap between the stones. appropriate.
"This secret passage is not simple." The grim-faced Taoist priest had some clues. If the secret passage could be designed like this, it must have been planned when the altar was built. Maybe there is something terrible down there, so the Yemu family would think of a way like this. Hide and tuck.
Could it be the antidote to the iron wire bug? !
The Taoist priest with a grimace suddenly came up with this idea, and he suddenly became energetic and said to Luo Laoqi: "Lao Qi, you stay here and keep an eye on the back road. I will go and see what is there first."
Walking down the stone steps, the Taoist priest with a grimace called He Siniang to explore the front together. Xia Houyun fell down and ducked to his waist, leaving Xia Houxiang to look after him.
The grimace Taoist priest and He Siniang walked in tandem without saying much, and began to walk quietly towards the depths of the cave.
As he walked, the grim-faced Taoist priest gradually noticed changes in the air around him, and seemed to be able to smell a faint smell of sulfur. He turned his head and asked, "Siniang, what are you smelling?"
He Siniang nodded: "It smells like sulfur. Isn't it Chuwentangzi (hot spring) in front?"
"It's hard to say, places with volcanoes are prone to warm soup, but if a warm soup is hidden in such a hidden place, wouldn't it be a bit nonsense?"
"Who knows, let's keep walking quickly. We'll find out what the scene is like."
The two of them immediately continued to move forward. The grimace Taoist priest kept remembering the number of steps in his mind. At this time, he had walked almost thirty steps. Judging from this distance and direction, the vertical position where the two of them were now must have been long ago. beyond the confines of the temple.
The cave still has no end in sight. The grim-faced Taoist priest in front couldn't help thinking: If we continue like this, won't we have to go through the stone mountain?
As if to confirm the conjecture of the Taoist Ghostface, after turning a gentle bend, a dark red light suddenly appeared from the depths of the cave, and at the same time a warm wind blew in his face. The Taoist Ghostface hurriedly stopped and looked at the light intently. I went there and saw an open cave entrance ten feet away.
Both the grimace Taoist priest and He Siniang looked extremely surprised, but they didn't know where the outside of the cave was connected, so they didn't dare to say anything, but quickly approached the entrance of the cave with gentle steps.
When he was very close to the entrance of the cave, the Taoist Priest with a grimace finally saw the scene outside the cave clearly, and his spirit suddenly became very high. He said happily: "Mom! This is really a secret escape route!"
The exit of the cave is on a cliff, which is located on the north side of the stone mountain. The red dragon-like lava river flows from below. The dark red light and sulfur smell they saw came from here. A "river" emerged.
The grim-faced Taoist priest leaned against the cave wall and marveled at the scene under the cliff. This stone mountain is like a barrier that separates Yin and Yang, half of it is hot lava and half of it is cold river water, and it stands in it, with a strong city above and cliffs below, it is simply a pass at the top.
It's just that at this pass, we are guarding our own people.
He Siniang said at this time: "It seems that this secret passage is not as complicated as imagined, it is just an escape route, but the entrance is built on the altar, which is worth pondering."
"Mostly it was left by the craftsmen who built the altar." The Taoist Priest with a Ghost Face replied: "The stones around the secret passage are staggered very regularly. Obviously, this secret passage was also included in the plan when it was built."
"It seems that the Yemu clan is not monolithic. At least from now on, some people have begun to question the authority of the clan leader."
"That's inevitable. Having power will breed corruption and arrogance, and then oppression will intensify. It's not surprising that a rebellious class will appear in this way. Moreover, the Yemu clan has also formed a theocratic power, which will make it easier for the simple craftsman class to awaken, but from now on Judging from what they did, there are still very few tribesmen who have doubts, and all they can do is dig a hole and escape. Large-scale resistance has never happened in this tribe until the end of the tribe."
He Siniang looked slightly sideways at the Grimace Taoist's remarks and said curiously: "I thought you would only argue with Lao Qi, but I didn't expect that you have such a profound understanding of rights."
"What are you talking about? What kind of immoral things have I done to make you look down on me like this? A real gangster will never act like a gangster. If I talk about everything, then I am not a sour scholar?"
"The Taoist priest is right. The word 'scholar' doesn't suit you. Rogue is more appropriate."
"Hey, Si Niang is willing to accompany me and other gangsters to travel around, but is unwilling to stay in Qinzhou and live a peaceful life. Isn't she also a female gangster?"
"Tch! No man in the world can withstand my concubine's tricks. Isn't the reason why I wander around because I have too many unfulfilled wishes?"
"Gu Jiuniang's revenge has been avenged, and the butterfly poison has been cured. What else do you want? You, you are the one who was born for the Mushroom Sect. You are adventurous by nature, and you are also full of curiosity about unknown things. You are poor. I think you won’t be able to survive Ansheng’s life.”
"The Taoist Master still has the nerve to talk about concubine?" He Siniang's cheeks turned red when the Taoist priest with a grimace revealed her nature. As for you, our eldest brother, not to mention our second brother, when it comes to curiosity, I am still worse than the monkeys in Mount Emei compared to the Taoist priest."
"Oh my mother, I'm really asking for trouble. Okay, let's stop competing. I see that my fourth mother is in a very relaxed mood right now. Have you found a way to cross the river?"
"The width of the magma river is only three feet, and there is a mountain rock on the other side. It is not easy to get over this. What about the Taoist priest? There must be a reason for the sudden quarrel, right?"
"Pindao has seen something even more incredible, maybe it will be a real 'cave country'."
"I said you two didn't find a way quickly, why are you talking about love face to face?" Luo Laoqi's voice suddenly came from behind: "Hey? Is that the entrance of the cave?!"
"Why are you here?" The grim-faced Taoist priest and He Siniang turned their heads one after another.
"The Sa family can still live at the entrance of the cave for the rest of their lives! It's true that you two found the entrance of the cave and didn't hurry up and call for someone to come."
"You can't escape from the entrance of the cave, why are you anxious!" The Taoist Priest with a grimace looked behind Luo Laoqi, and then asked: "Where are Xiahou and his grandson?"
"Still waiting over there, the Sa family got impatient, and the beasts outside the cave entrance were silent, so I came over to take a look."
"Then you can join hands with these four ladies to hang the flying lock. Pindao will go back and call the grandson and grandpa. Let's leave this place right away."
