The brick temple did not become dilapidated and weeds grew due to years of disrepair. Instead, it was as solemn and lonely as it was when it was first built. It was impossible to see that no one had entered the temple for twenty years.
Except for the crows flying around the temple and the crows parked on the eaves of the temple...
There are no gods and Buddhas in the temple, nor are there any magnificent interiors. There are only simple necessary items and a jade sculpture enshrined by Guanyin to save the world. However, on this Guanyin's body, a small crack seemed to have been smashed along Guanyin's left shoulder to the right rib, but if you don't pay attention, you can't see this crack.
There is always a bad feeling. Bai Xiangbing and Qi Xiangdie both read such information from each other's eyes.
"Do you feel very depressed?" Bai Xiangbing asked Qi Xiangdie in a low voice.
Qi Xiangdie nodded gently.
"The seal of the magic pen is in a secret room in the temple." Village Chief Du walked to an incense burner, touched a totem of the incense burner with his hand, pressed it down hard, and pressed it down.
Three-legged Golden Crow? No, at least this three-legged Golden Crow gives people a bad feeling. If you want to say it, it looks more like the evil three-legged Golden Crow. Bai Xiangbing said intimately.
On the earth, whether in the Han people or Goguryeo people, there is a legend of the three-legged golden crow. It is believed that the three-legged golden crow is a kind of sun god bird, and literati and poets also like to use the three-legged golden crow to represent the sun. The Yata crow sent by Amaterasu in Japan is also very similar to the three-legged golden crow. Whether in the Han people and Goguryeo or the Yata crow in Japan, they are all sacred species, but the totem of this three-legged golden crow gives people less than a sacred feeling, and there is only an unknown feeling of evil.
"It's not very common here." Qi Xiangdie said: "I hope you didn't miss it this time."
Bai Xiangbing said: "If something goes wrong, I will ask you to escape first and then I will cushion."
Qi Xiangdie gave him a blank look and said, "Forget it, if there is really a problem, it's not time to take advantage of the hero. In your current state, you should escape first and I will cushion first."
A subtle sound of gear rotation came from the ground. Although the sound insulation effect was good, ordinary people would not hear the subtle sound at all, and they would ignore it even if they heard it. However, Bai Xiangbing and Qi Xiangdie were not ordinary people. When they came in, Bai Xiangbing secretly activated the power of space, so naturally he knew the huge maze of mechanisms under this temple.
The cracked Guanyin jade carving slowly moved away as the mechanism connected to the base rotated, and a door hidden behind the jade carving slowly opened. Unexpectedly, after the stone door opened, there were no dust or floating small particles, and there were no spider webs, just as people often cleaned here.
Village Chief Du cut two matches and threw them into the grooves on both sides of the secret passage. Bright flames ignited on both sides of the secret passage in an instant.
Mermaid Oil? Qi Xiangdie thought to herself, this secret passage is quite advanced.
Wherever the burning mermaid oil flows, bright flames burn up wherever it illuminates the secret passage.
Before entering the secret passage, Qi Xiangdie and Bai Xiangbing looked at this temple that gave people a sense of depression with deep meaning.
This matter would not be that simple. Bai Xiangbing said intimately. Following Village Chief Du, he and Qi Xiangdie entered the secret passage one by one.
After all three of them entered the secret passage, the secret door quietly closed.
The twists and turns of the secret passage are not an exaggeration, and the burning mermaid oil cannot lead the way, because there are forks and mechanisms everywhere in the secret passage maze. Whether the road is right or wrong, there are guidance from mermaid oil. If ordinary people or people with low cultivation get lost here, they will be able to be trapped here alive.
"Okay, it's here." Village Chief Du brought the two to a bronze door.
Qi Xiangdie asked Bai Xiangbing in a low voice: "Can you see what's wrong with this?"
Bai Xiangbing also responded in a low voice: "It's extremely inappropriate here. Before coming, Village Chief Du said that there was a sealing array here, but for some reason it was cracked."
Qi Xiangdie asked, "So is she telling the truth or the lies?"
Bai Xiangbing said: "I don't know what to say? The magic array here is not a sealing array. Although it has the effect of sealing inside, its main function is to suppress a certain object."
Qi Xiangdie said: "Suppression? If it is an ordinary magical artifact, there is no need to suppress it."
Bai Xiangbing said worriedly: "So I don't know what this is."
Qi Xiangdie said, "Since you've come in, the boat will naturally be straight when it reaches the bridge. I hope you haven't played big this time."
"It's here, on the altar." Village Chief Du led the two into the bronze door.
The secret room is larger than imagined. The secret room is made of marble. The light in the secret room emits from a large night pearl on the top, soft but bright. There is a river made of mercury on the floor. The river is bent and bent. Through the mercury, you can also see the mechanism group under the secret room.
An altar was built on both sides of the secret room. Under the altar was a pitch-black hole, which was fixed by iron chains attached to talismans as thick as arms.
In the center of the secret room, a round altar was built, and directly above the center of the round altar, a wolf-teared pen floated in the air.
With a heavy muffled sound, the bronze door closed.
The more he walked into the round altar where the magic pen was placed, Bai Xiangbing's face became more solemn, his eyes were full of seriousness and vigilance. His hands were hanging on both sides of his body, and he took out the oil-paper umbrella with a talisman attached from the magic stone made into wristbands at any time.
Qi Xiangdie's fingers were slightly stretched, and as long as there was a slight movement, the sleeve sword would eject.
"This is the magical pen for the come true." Village Chief Du walked forward.
At this time, circles of black spiral-shaped curse seals appeared on the pen of Langhao Pen, which did not give people a feeling of divinity, but was filled with an evil spirit.
The magic pen shook and suddenly walked towards the village chief Du, who had a pious expression, shot at the extreme speed.
"Be careful! Leave down!"
When he was talking, Bai Xiangbing quickly rushed over and threw Village Chief Du to the ground. The magic pen wiped his head and flew over. If the speed was slower just now, then the one who would not die was Village Chief Du, or Bai Xiangbing would not die.
Qi Xiangdie immediately stepped forward, stretched his five fingers into a knife, and a silver light flashed, and two assassination sneakers ejected out, swung the sword and separated the magic pen. When the other pair of sneakers were about to pierce out, the magic pen narrowly avoided the sharp stab that should have been unable to dodge.
"What's going on?" Village Chief Du said in surprise: "This wouldn't have happened before."
Bai Xiangbing said with a serious expression: "I'm afraid this magic pen is no longer magical and has been contaminated into an evil pen."
"What...what? Why did this happen?" Village Chief Du asked.
"I have learned the magic circle. When I came in, I found that the magic circle had been attacked by external forces, and the strong attack was successfully attacked, and the magic circle was also destroyed." Bai Xiangbing said: "Why did the magic pen become an evil pen? It should be that it was polluted. People who pollute the magic pen are inseparable from those who destroy the magic circle."
"So what should I do? This is the treasure of the town and the village, and there is no mistake at all." said Village Chief Du.
"I have learned purification techniques, and I should be able to purify the evil energy on the magic pen." Bai Xiangbing said: "But it is rarely used. This is the first time that I have used purification techniques. I have been practicing before. Whether it can be successfully purified is unknown."
"Girl, I really want to ask you for this matter. Just beg you as an old woman. I must turn the magic pen back to its original state." Village Chief Du, like a person who fell into the water, grabbed the last straw, put all his hope on Bai Xiangbing.
Bai Xiangbing nodded to Village Chief Du, then stood up, took the oil-paper umbrella to Qi Xiangdie, and asked her: "Can you stop this pen?"
Qi Xiangdie said, "Do your best... There is no way out before and there is no way out. Since things have developed to this point, let's take a try."
