"There's a ghost! There's a ghost!" Jiang Chen shouted.
"Where is the ghost?" Chiyang was surprised.
Jiang Chen pointed towards the edge of the cliff: "Over there!"
The hunters stopped arguing and looked toward the cliff.
Each of them heard the vague and disembodied voice: "Are you... all deaf... Come down quickly! I can't climb up..."
The hunters looked at each other.
"Is it Miss Gao?"
"seems like it."
"Is she not dead?"
"The cliff is so high, he must be dead..."
"What's going on with this sound?"
"The devil is asking for his life..."
Jing Feng snorted heavily: "Don't be suspicious, you'll know after you go over and take a look!"
He strode towards the cliff bank.
"Grand leader, be careful!"
"Don't fall into that evil spirit's trick..."
Jing Feng stood on the edge of the cliff, staring at the mist-shrouded abyss beneath his feet, silent for a long time.
Suddenly, he bowed up, kicked off his feet, and slid down the rugged cliff.
"Grand leader!"
"Lao Jing!"
People screamed and rushed forward.
But all I saw was that there was no bottom at the bottom of the cliff. How could there be half a human figure?
The dignified leader just fell off the cliff?
Chi Yang stamped his feet and shouted loudly: "Old Jing——"
The sound waves spread far away, combined with the howling mountain wind, and echoed in the mountains and forests.
Du Qibo fell to her knees with a pale face, tears in her eyes.
At this time, a response came from the bottom of the cliff: "I'm down there."
People looked down in surprise and saw Jing Feng appearing next to the cliff. He had only one head and everything below the neck disappeared, but there was no strange expression on his face, which looked extremely strange.
"Come down," Jing Feng said. "We have all been deceived. The cliff is fake, and the clouds and abyss we see are illusions. There is a layer of barrier covering up the real scene below. This hillside is actually not high."
People were doubtful, but Chiyang was the first to step forward. He proved the correctness of what Jingfeng said. Then everyone climbed down the cliff.
There are wild grasses below, and among them stands a very ancient-looking temple.
The temple is made of huge stones, and the walls are carved with exquisite and mysterious patterns, which have become somewhat blurred under the erosion of time.
Miss Gao, who was supposed to be dead, was standing in front of the temple at this moment, beating the heavy temple door hard: "Quick, whoever is strong among you, help me push this damn door open!"
Her expression was uplifting and exciting, and she didn't even care about the previous conflict with Jiang Chen.
Next to the temple gate stands a huge stone tablet, entangled with layers of vine branches, with a strange writing recorded on it. The hunters present had traveled far and wide and had seen a lot, but they had never seen such writing anywhere.
Only Jiang Chen's eyelids twitched, and when he saw the words on the stone tablet, he could no longer move his eyes away.
Chiyang walked over and pushed aside the vines, touched the lines of the stone tablet, and muttered: "I have never seen this kind of writing..."
"Don't worry about those ghostly drawings!" Miss Gao was already jumping anxiously, "You big guy, come here and push the door open for me. I want your reward, Miss! Hurry up!"
Chi Yang said: "This temple is very strange, don't go deep into it rashly..."
Jing Feng also agreed: "If it were a cave left by an ancient immortal, there should be many institutional restrictions..."
"Don't worry about any government restrictions! I didn't come all the way to a remote place like yours just to listen to your nagging!" Miss Gao said impatiently, "Stop dawdling, come here and open the door. Your mission will be completed. No other nonsense." Say, do you understand?"
Chi Yang glanced at Jing Feng, who nodded. Chi Yang had no choice but to walk to Miss Gao's side, press his arms on the door, steady his heels, and push with all his strength.
The door suddenly shook, raising a cloud of dust, but it did not open in response.
"Big guy, haven't you eaten? Work harder!" Miss Gao urged from the side.
Chiyang's face showed a solemn look, his waist sank, veins popped out in his arms, and a bright red blood glow appeared on his body, and he let out a low roar: "Open--"
He stepped hard with his right foot, and there was a boom, like a mountain collapsing, and the impact shook the ground.
After the smoke and dust filled the sky, the two heavy doors finally opened slowly, and the rumbling sound spread to the depths of the dark temple.
Miss Gao cheered and was about to dive in, but Chi Yang held her back: "Be careful! There may be danger inside!"
Miss Gao's expression could not be seen clearly in the smoke, but her voice was extremely cold, with a sense of superiority and pride: "Despicable country bumpkin, who allows you to touch my body?"
Chiyang let go of his palm in embarrassment.
Miss Gao didn't stop any longer and rushed forward.
The smoke gradually dispersed.
Dots of light flickered inside the temple, illuminating the deep corridor and leading straight to a distance beyond the reach of sight.
And Miss Gao's figure gradually faded away, blending into the depths of darkness.
Jing Feng's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice: "Follow Miss Gao!"
Du Qibo, Duan Fei, Gao An, He Wen, and Shi Dinghai followed Jing Feng into the temple quickly.
Chiyang was last. He was still hesitating. Seeing that they all went in, he turned around and said to Jiang Chen: "Let's go in too."
Jiang Chen withdrew his gaze from the stone tablet and looked at the door, feeling a bit frightened.
He looked at the deep corridor in the dim light, and an inexplicable illusion emerged in his mind - the door in front of him was like the entrance to an ancient tomb, with countless hideous zombies lurking in the darkness, staring at those who came. Or maybe it's like a huge beast's big mouth full of sharp teeth, opening quietly, just waiting for them to walk in, it will chew up their flesh and blood and swallow them all...
Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, but saw that Chi Yang and others had already walked away. It would be more dangerous to stay outside alone, so he had to run over reluctantly.
He followed Chi Yang, carefully looking around as he walked.
This is a long corridor. The faint light emitted by the spiritual stone above the head brings a small light. The footsteps of everyone echo in the long corridor, which sounds particularly quiet.
Jing Feng suddenly stopped in front of him and stood in front of a statue, frowning in thought. Several other people gathered around the statue, talking quietly.
"The posture of this statue is very strange. It doesn't seem to commemorate any god."
"Can you recognize who He is?"
"How can you recognize this..."
Jiang Chen leaned over and saw the appearance of the statue clearly, and couldn't help but be horrified.
The statue was lifelike, and the textures on its face were very fine, but its movements were very weird, as if it had tripped while running. The expression on its face was twisted and desperate, which reflected in Jiang Chen's eyes, making him feel a sense of empathy. The feeling of terror.
"There's more ahead!" Jing Feng led the team to move forward.
More such statues appeared in the corridor. They were placed in the middle of the road, with different postures and expressions. Some were terrified, some were peaceful and confused, and they were facing in different directions.
"It looks like a real person. Such a piece of art would be worth a lot of money if I could get it back!" someone lamented.
Jiang Chen said silently in his heart: "Then we must be able to go back..."
After passing these strange human statues, red-red dragon head sculptures appeared on both sides of the corridor. These dragon heads poked out from the walls. They were eloquent and looked majestic. There was one every three or four feet, which was higher than before. The human statues are much neater.
Seeing these dragon head portraits, Jiang Chen's feeling of panic became more and more serious. He couldn't help but look back and saw that the road he and his group came from was hazy and dim, as if the road had been swallowed up by darkness.
His scalp was numb, and he whispered to Chiyang: "This place is very weird, let's go back quickly?"
Chi Yang replied in a low voice: "Come with everyone, don't be alone."
Jiang Chen wanted to persuade him to turn back, but Gao An suddenly screamed in front of him: "Where is my wolf? Hui Tou! Why is Hui Tou missing?"
Another trembling voice then sounded: "The gray head is there!"
People looked in the direction of his finger and saw that the wolf was still in a jumping posture, with only one hind leg touching the ground. The whole body showed a dark color, and it had become the same as the statues in front of it.
That poor wolf has also become part of the statue group!
