Chapter 41: Three Sticks of Incense

I subconsciously wanted to push the door open.

But no matter how hard I tried, the door of the hall would not move at all, as if something was blocking it inside.

I started calling Uncle Ghost.

However, Uncle Ghost did not respond to me.

Could it be that he was sucked into the coffin?

Is this the secret method that Uncle Gui mentioned to steal the sky and change the sun?

As long as the coffin is opened, the person who opened the coffin will replace the person who was originally sealed inside, and then be sealed inside again?

My heart suddenly sank.

If so, how should I save Uncle Ghost?

Even if I can push open the door of the main hall, will I be sealed inside the coffin again after I open the coffin lid?

This is simply a dead end.

At the same time, I also couldn't figure out why Uncle Ghost and the old drunkard could push open the door of this hall when I was locked in the black coffin.

Why can't I do it this time?

Or is there some other problem that I don't know about?

Thinking of this, I calmed down.

If I can't enter the main hall, I definitely won't be able to save Uncle Ghost.

And even if we go in, if it is what Uncle Ghost and I thought, then what lies before us in this hall is a dead end.

So it seems that there is only one way left in front of me, and that is to find the being who disguised himself as Uncle Ghost at the beginning. Only he knows the secrets in the hall, so only he can know how to save Uncle Ghost.

Just where to find him?

I looked around.

When I came to the City God's Temple with that fake ghost uncle, he took me all the way to this main hall. I didn't look at the other places carefully. Now when I looked at it, I noticed that there was a slightly smaller one on both sides of the main hall.

The secondary palace.

In front of each secondary hall, there is a statue.

It's just that both statues are in the form of kneeling, with a man and a woman facing the direction of the main hall, and their eyes are undoubtedly white, just like the statue of the City God.

Not only that, I felt an inexplicable palpitation when I looked at those two statues.

After hesitating for a while, I chose to go to the secondary hall on the right.

Now I have no other choice.

Even if I don't find the Earthly Immortal Sword, I can't ignore Uncle Ghost, otherwise I will have an uneasy conscience. Even if I leave and I am alone, I will regret it for the rest of my life.

But as soon as I walked to the right side of the secondary hall, the statue of a kneeling man suddenly moved. The right hand on the statue that was supposed to be on the knee was slowly raised, revealing something inside.

A strange picture.

The pattern is black and white, just like two fishes.

The black part is mixed with a little white part, just like eyeballs.

It's just that in the middle of the white part, the part that looks like an eyeball seems to be missing something.

The statue raised its hand as if it was asking me for something.

I didn't quite understand, so I wanted to walk away from one side, but the statue seemed to come alive and moved over when I walked to the other side.

Not only that, the door behind the statue also closed at the same time.

It's like I can't get through it as long as I don't leave behind what it takes.

But this also makes me more and more certain that maybe there is something inside this sub-hall.

Just looking at the white part of the statue's hand made me confused.

I only have the soul-suppressing rope, the corpse-slaying sickle, and the City God's protective robe, and then the City God sticker. The rest are just ordinary clothes and fire folds, and there is nothing in the shape that meets the needs of the white part.

After groping for a while, I couldn't find anything, which suddenly gave me a headache.

According to this posture, if I cannot give this statue what it needs, I will most likely not be able to enter this secondary hall.

Fortunately, I soon made another discovery.

I found that the dot on the black part looked similar to the white part, but it was a kind of liquid, like water droplets. I reached out and touched it, and it was a bit sticky. When I smelled it, there was a slight bloody smell.

taste.

"Could it be blood?"

My eyelids twitched.

I didn't hesitate any longer, bit my finger into pieces, and then dropped a drop of blood on the missing white part.

Sure enough, after my blood fell, my drop of blood changed from red to black in an instant, and the statue also changed again. After putting away its hand, it actually stood up and made a gesture of pushing the door.

.

The next moment, the door of the secondary hall opened with a sound.

This scene just makes me feel a little incredible, because it is too unimaginable.

I stared at the statue for a while, and after making sure that nothing had changed, I took a deep breath and walked into the secondary hall.

As soon as we entered, the interior of the secondary hall suddenly lit up with fire. At a glance, there were rows of candles on both sides of the wall, and those candles had all been lit, illuminating the entire secondary hall very brightly.

I immediately saw the skeleton in the center.

The skeleton sat cross-legged on the futon, facing the altar table.

On the offering table is an incense burner with three half-burned incense sticks on it.

Behind the altar table is another statue, and it looks the same as the statue of the City God in the main hall, and it is still complete.

I'm a little disappointed.

Because this time it seems that these are the only things in the temple.,

However, I was disappointed. Based on my previous experience with the black coffin in the main hall, I still examined it carefully.

Sure enough, I soon found a piece of paper on the corpse.

That piece of paper gave me a very familiar feeling, and I immediately remembered it after I pulled it out of the skeleton.

This piece of paper is almost the same as the piece of paper money that the old woman I met before entering the City God's Temple gave me. The difference is that this piece of paper is complete and not paper money.

And there is a line of words on the paper that seems to have been written in a hurry.

"If the person who enters the temple is a person who points his forehead and asks for something, he can burn the city god's incense."

"Those who burn an incense can enter the Soul-Calming Hall."

"Two incense can open a coffin to suppress evil spirits."

"Those with three incense can enter the City God's Hall!"

Looking at this line of writing, I couldn't help but look up at the incense burner on the altar table. There happened to be three sticks of incense on the incense burner.

"Soul-Suppressing Hall, Evil-Suppressing Coffin, City God's Hall?"

I murmured and fell into deep thought.

This sentence is not difficult for me to understand.

It should be said that if the person is chosen by the city god, he can light these three incense here, and the number of incense he lights represents what he can do.

But the three words "City God's Hall" really don't make sense to me.

Because Uncle Ghost and I entered the main hall here from the beginning.

Unless the main hall is not the City God's Hall.

My eyelids twitched when I thought of this.

This is not impossible.

After all, this Chenghuang Temple is very weird.
