Chapter 40, Four Demon Statues


The walls and floors of the castle are all movable, and connections and transmission points are made in invisible places. otbnkotgt "Have you seen similar formation changes in the past?"

Jin Hu asked strangely.

I nodded and said, "Yes.

I read it from the book.

The Jiuyang Cave in Longhu Mountain has a similar structure, and the Tianbing Mountain in Xuanfengmen also has a similar formation.

This is a protective measure. , but those who can create this kind of formation are all from great sects, and these people are also from great sects, and Yaling Castle is really a big deal."

A cult was able to control so many villages and towns, not to mention building such a large castle and existing for hundreds of years.

Nowadays, even the internal structural layout of the castle is so generous, which makes me even more afraid of the Bone Ooid Cult.

"Then can you find this pattern?"

Jin Hu asked.

I shook my head and said: "This kind of transformation law is prepared in advance by the people who set up the formation.

If you want to find the internal change law of the castle by yourself, it will take a long time of observation and calculation.

But we don't have that time."

In my opinion, maybe the old man and the others didn't know that Crow Ridge Castle actually hid this kind of change method.

Therefore, the map he drew did not show this aspect, and he himself did not know it clearly.

This is troublesome.

I don’t know the castle’s changing time or changing rules.

However, for now, it can be determined that this change is planar, which means that the changes in the second underground floor will not be connected in series with the third underground floor or the first underground floor.

We are now on the underground floor and should be safe for the time being.

This is also to prevent the last change in series from sending people to the core area.

But we may never find the way to the second underground floor, and the drainage channel behind us that could have allowed us to escape has long since disappeared, thus cutting off our retreat.

"The way back has been cut off, and there is no way to the next level.

All bad things have happened together.

Alas."

There is not much choice now.

I can only bite the bullet and explore on my own.

I put the map away, looked back at Jin Hu and said, "You can't go back either, you can only follow me, but there are ugly words ahead, so don't cause trouble for me."

She looked a little unhappy.

But he also knew that I was very capable and could only rely on me now, so in the end he said nothing and lowered his head.

Follow the road in the opposite direction.

The place that was supposed to be the exit to the next level had turned into a wall at this moment.

After walking in the opposite direction for about five or six minutes, four strange flames lit up in the darkness ahead.

They were faint blue, but not bright or huge.

They were frozen and swaying slightly in the darkness.

"What kind of ghost is that?"

Jin Hu was a little surprised.

After all, there were too many weird things in Crow Ridge Castle, making everyone nervous.

"Be careful."

I warned and walked forward.

When I walked under the four blue flames, I saw clearly that these four blue flames were actually four lights flickering on a sculpture. lamp, but this sculpture surprised me "Four demon statues," I whispered, frowning.

The sculpture in front of you is about four meters high from the ground.

It is in the shape of a pillar, with four sides facing outward.

Each side faces one direction, and each side is a different monster.

Similar statues are called the Four Demons.

In the late Tang Dynasty, a warlock who traveled around wrote an article called Weird Statues in the World.

This article lists all kinds of strange sculptures he saw during his travels, including the statues of the Four Demons.

He mentioned in the article that the first time he saw the four demon statues was in a foreign country.

A group of Persians were selling a huge sculpture on the street, saying it was a gift from the gods.

The entire sculpture is made of brass, which is heavy but gleaming.

The four sides are four different monsters.

The sorcerer can recognize the monsters on two sides, but the Persians call them gods.

Each side of the four demon statues contains the demonic power of the monster it was carved into, but it is not strong.

It is just that these demonic powers can shape the statue into something magical and full of mystery.

Each statue is in a different pose, some are showing their teeth and claws, and some are peaceful and peaceful.

The Persians at that time offered a very high price, and it was finally bought by a wealthy businessman.

The four-faced monster statue in front of you is definitely not the one in the article.

There are many differences.

First of all, the movements of each of the four-faced monster statues in front of you are the same.

They all stretch out a hand and put it in the palm of the hand.

Light a lamp.

The direction facing the palm is an empty and dark passage.

Secondly, the material of this statue of the Four Demons is not brass, but stone.

I can't tell what kind of stone it is.

However, it can be seen from the traces of demonic energy leaking out that the demonic power contained in this four-demon statue is not weak.

However, it is not aggressive, but rather serves as a source of motivation to keep the light in his hand lit.

Four lights.

Four directions, four different passages.

The appearance of the four demon statues seems to indicate something, it seems to be a choice, and what I fear most is encountering this kind of multiple-choice question in the maze.

It would be best if I choose the right one, but seven or eight times out of ten I will definitely choose the wrong one.

Then what awaits me are all kinds of dangerous mechanisms and terrible traps.

"What should I do?

Do you know which way to go?"

Jin Hu asked in a low voice.

I shook my head and said, "I'm not a great divination expert.

How could I know?"

"Then let's choose any one.

Let me see what's special about this statue first."

As Jin Hu spoke, he actually stretched out his hand to touch the statue of the four monsters.

I said that this girl is a burden.

There is probably a mechanism hidden in this thing.

If you touch it casually, Touching her would be fatal, but my stop was too late.

Her hand was already pressed against the statue of the Four Demons.

This time.

The base part of the Four Demon Statues suddenly made a "click" sound, and then slowly rotated.

While rotating, the four sides of the Four Demon Statues made strange sounds at the same time, like chanting sutras.

The lamp in his hand also flickered on and off, making it even more eerie.

"What's going on?"

she asked belatedly.

I said angrily: "Can you be messed with?"

Jin Hu was stunned and silent.

I listened to the sound of the four demon statues reciting, which seemed to be the teachings of the Bone Ooist Sect.

I had heard those clerks recite it in the 507 office before, so I was somewhat familiar with it.

This rotation lasted for a minute, and the four demon statues gradually stopped rotating.

At this time, three of the surrounding passages were blocked by huge stones suddenly falling on them, leaving only one of them that could still be walked.

"Well, I don't have to choose now, I can only take this option," I said angrily.

"Maybe I touched a trap and closed the wrong road, leaving the correct one behind."

Jin Hu said hurriedly, and I sneered: "It's also possible that you touched a trap and closed the third correct road, leaving the only one behind."

The wrong one is left, but since we don’t know which one is correct, we can only go to the dark side, let’s get on the road.”

I walked around the four demon statues and walked in through the only door that was not closed.

As soon as the two people passed through the door, there was a sudden noise from behind.

They only heard a "bang", and our way back was actually blocked by a big stone.

"Haha."

After seeing this scene, I was even more sure that this road would probably lead to some kind of trap or mechanism, and sneered, "It seems we can't go back.

Thank you for that lucky touch."

There was still a strange light blue gunpowder light on the road.

The road was very long and narrow.

We walked one behind the other, being careful not to touch the mechanism.

Be careful when sailing a long-lasting ship.

Only great ability will prevent it from capsizing.

No matter how good the helmsman is, he will sometimes get lost.

"There is a bright light ahead," Jin Hu pointed to the front and said, I nodded, naturally I saw it.

At the end of the road, a red light flickered and strange red smoke drifted out.

I turned around and said, "Cover your mouth and nose.

These cigarettes may be poisonous.

If something happens later, try your best to protect yourself."

After saying that, I took out a towel from my pocket and tied it on my face, then walked towards the red light.

The closer you get to the red light, the more red smoke floats out.

As you get closer, you can still hear the sound of water.

The temperature around you also begins to rise.

It seems that you can still vaguely hear strange mumbling sounds
