After walking through seven upward turns, counting silently in my mind, we all came to a square bluestone platform. Directly in front of us was a door, a black wooden door. On both sides of the door were the same ones as in the temple.
Jiao Yiming used a flashlight to shine a lamp on a bronze female figurine with a human body and snake head. There was still some grease in the lamp, so he asked Ji Haifei for a lighter and lit it. The small bluestone platform was suddenly illuminated.
At this time, everyone walked towards the black door. I saw a bronze disc inlaid in the middle of the door, with a human head carved on it. The top of the head had double horns, round and pointed; the face
, the eyes are large, the cheekbones are extremely high, the bridge of the nose is sharp, the mouth is tightly pursed, the outline of the entire mouth is very round and narrow, the ears seem to stand up like a wolf-dog, long and pointed. The entire face
The outline is very stiff and lifeless. It doesn't seem like a person's face, but more like a mask. Especially the eyes, although they are big, look hollow, not like human eyes, but...
.It seems to have been installed, giving people a creepy and weird feeling.
Lu Yisong said to all of us at this time: "It is said that Chi You was originally the ruler of the underground world of Kyushu. He inherited six supreme artifacts from his ancestors when he was born. When he grew up, due to his great ambition, he was no longer satisfied with the underground world.
In the territory of the world, he took these six artifacts and led eighty-one brothers with human bodies and animal heads, bronze heads and iron arms to fight out of the underground world to compete with the Yellow Emperor for the dominance of the earth. Later, after his defeat, he was chased by the Yellow Emperor.
Chi You knew that he would die while escaping. In order to ensure that the six artifacts would not fall into the hands of the Yellow Emperor, Chi You sent one of his confidants to lead a team of men to secretly take the six artifacts and order him to return to the underground world and put the artifacts away.
Go back to the altar in the Eight Temples and tell his confidants: After his death, if there is enough time, an immortal hero will emerge from this clan, and let this person return to the earth with the artifact to avenge him and annex the earth world to complete his mission.
A wish. Unfortunately, after his death, the vitality of the underground world he led was severely damaged, and no heroes emerged. In the end, these six artifacts were permanently left in the altar."
Having said this, he pointed to the bronze disc on the black door and continued: "The facial makeup on this bronze disc is the "Dark Mask", one of the six artifacts. It is said that this mask was worn on Chi You's face.
On the mask, it has supreme dark power, and can use the spells engraved on the mask to summon all kinds of undead in the underground dark world and drive them to serve him. Everyone should know that no matter humans or animals, they will enter the world after death.
In the dark world, that is, the underworld, the dark power possessed by this mask is said to be able to summon all the dead souls to serve the person who owns this mask. Therefore, it also made Chi You invincible and invincible in the earthly world. This
This is also one of the reasons why Corpse Wolf entered this seventh-level earth dragon lair. He really wanted to get this mask, which would make his ability to summon the undead even more powerful."
Everyone couldn't help but shudder when they heard this. If Corpse Wolf really got this mask, if this mask really had the ability that Lu Yisong said, the consequences would be really disastrous.
Lu Yisong smiled at this time and said: "Actually, I think this mask only exists in legends. Whether it really exists or not, it is not necessarily whether this mask really has this kind of super power. So don't worry too much."
At this time, Pang Xiaotai interrupted: "Mr. Lu, what are the other five magical things?"
Lu Yisong smiled at Pang Xiaotai and said: "I will talk to you again when I have the opportunity. We are pressed for time now, so let's not talk about this for now. Let's go in first and see what the second floor is. Corpse Wolf is now
Life and death are unknown, and his whereabouts are unknown. We must get in front of him. After all, Brother Cen and I only arrived at the temple. Ever since we left the temple, I always have a bad feeling. The corpse wolf seems to be around us, and no one can
We can’t guarantee whether there are other routes around the altar that will lead to the seventh level, and we don’t know if he has any other plots.”
Having said this, he carefully looked at the structure of the door and said to everyone: "For the sake of safety, you all move to both sides first, and I will open the door."
As soon as everyone heard this, they stood on both sides of the door to see how Lu Yisong opened the black wooden door. Lu Yisong took a deep breath and murmured something in his mouth. Suddenly there was no wind and the green robe on his body automatically moved slowly.
It slowly swelled up, as if the robe was filled with gas. And there seemed to be gas surrounding and flowing around his body. At this time, I thought to myself, it is really amazing. This is the innate talent that Taoists have after they have practiced to a certain level.
Angry?
At this time, Lu Yisong gently stretched out his right hand and placed it on the door, then slowly pushed it over, and the door opened.
The moment the door opened, we all heard a soft "click" sound. We couldn't help but feel twitching in our hearts, and all our eyes looked nervously at Lu Yisong who was standing in front of the door.
Lu Yisong stood there quietly without moving, and neither did any of us. After about ten seconds, Lu Yisong breathed out gently, and the energy in his body slowly dissipated.
When everyone saw this, they felt that there was no danger, and their worries were finally relieved.
Lu Yisong turned around and smiled at us and said, "Everyone, go in, I think there is no danger." After saying that, he walked in first, and everyone turned on their flashlights and followed him in.
We were very disappointed with the situation inside. The four walls and the ground were all still made of very wide rectangular bluestones. There was still a rectangular altar in front of the table, but it seemed empty. There was also a rectangular altar on the left.
The steps lead to the top, but the only difference is that the color of the four steps is changed to cyan, which is the same material as the ground walls.
Everyone felt very strange when they saw this situation and stood still without moving. However, Lu Yisong seemed unmoved and walked straight to the front of the altar table. We all quietly shined our flashlights on him and watched.
He walked over. Suddenly, everyone saw that his body seemed to tighten suddenly, as if he had discovered something unexpected, and we all walked over quickly.
When we stood next to Lu Yisong, everyone couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. In the middle of the altar table, there was a rectangular groove, in which lay a golden mask quietly, and with us on the black wooden door outside
The facial makeup carved on the bronze disc seen above is exactly the same, and there are two lines of very small symbols and tadpole-like words carved on the mask.
Is the legend about Chi You possessing six artifacts true? Is the legend about the Dark Mask true? I felt really creepy at the time. I couldn’t believe what I saw with my eyes. This was too incredible! What if?
Are there really any so-called artifacts in the world? Then...if someone gets these things, wouldn't it mean that the world would be in chaos?
Seeing this mask, all of us were stunned and stood in front of the altar table without saying a word.
In the end, Lu Yisong let out a long breath and said to all of us with difficulty: "I didn't expect... this mask really exists, but... I think the function of this mask should be... it shouldn't be
It exists. Don’t be afraid. Maybe there are super powers in this world, but... a mask has the ability to summon the undead. I think... it’s still too weird and impossible.”
Everyone looked at Lu Yisong blankly. After listening to his words, everyone remained silent and did not speak.
After a long time, Lu Yisong stretched out his hands tremblingly and touched the mask in the groove. We all held our breath and watched in horror as Lu Yisong gently picked up the mask. Fortunately, when Lu Yisong
Yisong took the mask out of the groove, and nothing unexpected happened. Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Instructor Shui said tremblingly: "Mr. Lu, no matter whether this mask has any superpowers or not, we must put it
Take it away, you can't leave it here, if it is taken away by the zombie wolf, if... the legend is true, then... then..."
Lu Yisong interrupted instructor Shui at this time, smiled softly and said: "I know, I also mean to take it away." After saying that, he turned around and handed the mask to Jiao Yiming and said: "Yiming, come here.
Put it in your backpack, and remember, never look at the spells engraved on it! Put it away and protect it!"
Then he said to all of us: "If we all encounter a corpse wolf, even if we lose our lives, we must protect this mask and prevent it from falling into the hands of the corpse wolf. For now, let's not care whether it has the legendary god or not.
The unpredictable superpower should be treated as a national treasure-level cultural relic, and it must be protected!"
We all nodded heavily. Jiao Yiming took the mask and solemnly put it into his backpack.
Instructor Shui watched quietly as Jiao Yiming put the mask into his backpack, zipped it up, and said lightly: "Let's keep going up."
No one spoke. I don’t know how others felt at this time, but I felt that everything was like a dream, and my mind was full of questions. Did Chi You really exist in myths and legends? Are all the legends about him true?
? Is this mask really an artifact with supreme power? These questions make me feel that this mission is really weird! Is our ultimate goal to capture and eliminate Taiwan's supernatural agents or to find
