After eating, Qi Lu looked at the travelers who were eating at the adjacent table, and couldn't help but have a little moist eyes.
These outsiders who don't know the truth and have a single mind on making a fortune in their minds, how many of them can leave safely in the end Qi Lu's mood was a little heavy, and he realized that there was not much time left for him.
When he went up the stairs and was about to go back to his room to rest, he stopped Lao Wu, who was burping.
"Are you trying to make trouble again?"
"Yes."
Qi Lu did not deny it, "We slept for a few hours and got up at one o'clock in the morning to go to another passage of the Taoist temple. ” "Well, I know you're restless."
Lao Wu reluctantly agreed.
In the middle of the night, Qi Lu secretly woke up Lao Wu, and the two jumped out of the window like last time, and took advantage of the night to walk in the direction of the Taoist temple.
All the way, although the night owl-like villagers sat in front of the door like dead people, few people came out to hang out, and the two came to the Taoist temple relatively smoothly.
To Qi Lu's surprise, he found that there was no one guarding inside and outside the Taoist temple, and he couldn't help but say in surprise: "How can there be no one, the situation is a little bad." ” Lao Wu replied: "Don't be suspicious, the villagers are watching to prevent outsiders from coming in and discovering the secrets in the temple, what time is it now, the tourists sleep like dead pigs early, who will have the same spirit as us." ” Qi Lu was silent, and the two of them covered the door when they entered the view, and they didn't even dare to turn on the flashlight, and came to the corner of the wall in the dark.
The light was very dim, and he could only barely see a little bit of the wall with the help of the moonlight outside, Qi Lu asked in a low voice: "Where is the mechanism?"
Lao Wu pointed to a brick in the lower corner and said, "Here." ” Qi Lu touched it according to his words and found that the brick surface was very smooth, knowing that Lao Wu had not made a mistake in judgment, if it wasn't for someone touching it often, this brick would not have been so smooth that it couldn't even get dust.
But he groped for a long time, but he couldn't find the mechanism to open the secret passage, and his expression couldn't help but be a little embarrassed.
Lao Wu laughed secretly, lowered his body, and wiped his hand back and forth on the brick surface three times, Qi Lu immediately heard a "quack", and the wall separated on both sides, revealing a stone step leading to the ground.
"Alright, let's go inside."
The two of them bent into the dark passage, the wall quietly closed behind them, and the eyes suddenly fell into darkness.
Lao Wu spat out, took out a flashlight, held the short knife in his hand, and the two groped their way inside.
There was a foul smell in the cave, and the further you went inside, the stronger the smell became, Qi Lu covered his nose in disgust, and both he and Lao Wu sensed that this was the stench emitted by the decomposing corpse.
The tunnel was very narrow at first, but as I walked, it suddenly became clear, and at the end of the road, I found that there was a fork in front of me, and there were actually two holes.
Lao Wu shone the flashlight on the ground, and suddenly asked Qi Lu to look at the situation under his feet with a solemn expression.
Qi Lu looked down and was speechless in surprise, he found that there was a gossip map made of stones on the ground.
"Do you say it's the work of the villagers, or is it the idea of the evil god?"
Qi Lu thought for a moment, then pointed to the two holes and said, "What do you see the position of these two holes?"
Lao Wu opened his eyes and couldn't help but say in a lost voice: "Judging from the gossip direction on the ground, isn't this the Gen position and the Kun position?"
"Yes.
It seems that the two holes are not dug casually, the left hole is in the Gen position, the right is the Kun position, according to the Qimen Dunjia Eight Gates, the left hole represents the life gate, and the right hole is the death door. ” At this time, the two found that the smell came from the hole on the right, and Lao Wu said with a little palpitation: "The people killed by the villagers will not be buried in this hole."
"I think so, let's go in and see."
"It's the door of death, and the devil knows what's inside.
We don't have any divine power right now, and it's dangerous to rush in. ” "Are you afraid" Qi Lu said: "No matter whether we live or die, we must break through, otherwise how to find out the truth" "Alright then, be careful when you go in, don't step on the trap."
After entering the cave, Qi Lu found that there was a cold wind blowing in the cave from time to time, which was so cold that it was chilling, and it felt like a yin wind blown by a ghost, which made his goosebumps rise.
Luckily, I didn't touch any hurtful mechanisms along the way, except for a phosphorescent stone door in the deepest part of the cave.
The smell became stronger, Qi Lu signaled Lao Wu to stay away from him, and then stretched out his hand to push open the stone door, the stench suddenly came to his face, Qi Lu just glanced inside and his expression changed greatly, he took a few steps back one after another, and bent down and vomited with a pale face.
"Hmph, look at your virtue."
Old Wu Dun knew that there was a corpse inside, and he squeezed forward to look into the cave.
Although he was mentally prepared, Lao Wu was still shocked to watch.
It was as if I had walked into a slaughterhouse, and the hole of less than ten square meters was filled with human corpses, and the corpses were crawling with maggots.
Because of the large amount of carrion for food, these disgusting maggots grew fat and strong, and they were several times larger than ordinary maggots.
Lao Wu was sad, he couldn't bear to look at it anymore, so he quickly withdrew and closed the stone door and began to scold his mother.
Qi Lu gasped and said, "Save some effort, let's go in and see what clues there are inside." ” "You're nervous, this is the place where the villagers discarded their bodies, what important clues can there be" As he spoke, Lao Wu smiled darkly, "Why don't you go in and find clues?"
Qi Lu shook his head like a rattle, he didn't want to vomit again.
"We'd better go to another hole, and that's where we can get the clues we want."
"Okay."
The two of them turned back one after the other, Qi Lu's heart was as heavy as a block of ice, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe that these villagers were so cruel that they were so cold-blooded that they didn't even dig a pit to bury these unjustly killed tourists.
Entering the cave located at the Shengmen, it was like walking into a long and narrow road, Qi Lu felt that the ground was much flatter, he shone the flashlight down, and found that the road was actually paved with square stone slabs, so he reminded Lao Wu to pay attention to everything around, he was worried that there were traps and traps under the stone slabs, and he would lose his life if he was not careful.
But it turned out that Qi Lu was too worried, and they finally came to the end safe and sound.

Like the hole earlier, another stone door blocked the way.
Qi Lu pushed the door forward, but found that it was locked, and he couldn't push it open no matter how hard he tried.
Qi Lu calmed down, groping with his hand on the door while observing, five minutes had passed, and he had not found the mechanism to open the door.
Lao Wu laughed from behind, "No, this kind of thing is only what I am best at, and there is no mechanism in the world that I can't understand." ” Qi Lu replied angrily: "Then you are sincere to see my foreign appearance, why don't you find a way to open it." ” Lao Wu did not come forward to open the door, but turned around and ran towards the road, saying as he ran: "You wait here, if the door opens, call me." ” Qi Lu was stunned, he didn't know what Lao Wu's intentions were, he stretched out his head to look, only to see Lao Wu running to the entrance of the cave and returning, counting with his head down all the way.
Standing on a stone slab at last, he bent down and looked at the slab carefully, as if it were hiding some secret.
Qi Lu immediately discovered the abnormality of the stone slab, that is, the other stone slabs were dirty, but this stone slab was clean and tidy.
He couldn't help but be surprised: "The mechanism that opened the door is buried under this stone slab."
"You're half right."
As he spoke, Lao Wu suddenly stood up, and then jumped a few times hard, the stone slab suddenly sank into the ground, Lao Wu quickly retracted his feet, and the person also retreated to the side.
Qi Lu was overjoyed and said, "The door is open" Lao Wu ran back, his face full of showing off.
Qi Lu asked in wonder, "How do you know where the door opener is?"
Xie Yi said: "Just now I paid attention to the stone slabs we walked on, from the entrance of the cave to the door, there are no more than no less, a total of eighty-two, the person who designed the agency should be a person who knows how to understand the principle of ninety-nine to one.
So I found that one more slab, and the door would open. ” "With your skills, it's a shame not to be a thief."
Qi Lu was convinced, but if it was him, he was afraid that he would have to ponder for a few hours before he could discover this secret.
Entering the stone gate, Qi Lu was disappointed, and he found that there was nothing else in the cave except for a sarcophagus standing upright in the south.
"Didn't the old grandson say that this is a place to sacrifice to the evil gods, why didn't you see anything religious, no matter how simple it is, there should be an altar."
"This old man must have heard from others, he himself has not been in this hole."
Lao Wu's words are not unreasonable, but Qi Lu proposed another possibility.
"Could it be that the place where the evil god is sacrificed is hidden in a dark hole that we have not discovered?"
"There's a possibility, we'll look for it later."
"Then what's in this sarcophagus, it can't be a corpse?"
"It should be, you take care of me in the back, and I'll open the coffin.
If there is any treasure in it, you will be rich later. ” Qi Lu was amused by him, "When is it, you still want to get rich." ” After Lao Wu opened the lid of the coffin, both of them were extremely surprised.
The sarcophagus did not contain the corpse they had imagined, but a stone statue with a mouth covered in blood.
What made Qi Lu even more uneasy was that he recognized this stone statue as the image of a false beast.
In an instant, Qi Lu felt that his brain was about to explode, and he couldn't believe what he saw.
Lao Wu sighed, "Damn, it turns out that the evil god who instigated the villagers to kill tourists is a false beast."
"No, it can't be, there must be one of them" Lao Wu interrupted him and said coldly: "I think you are confused by the guy who is full of lies, and when you see the blood on the side of the stone statue's mouth, you don't think about how the ancient Mayans sacrificed to the gods."
Qi Lu knew that the sacrifices of the Mayans were frequent and cruel, not only did they use a large number of treasures as sacrifices, but also sacrificed the hearts of living people to the gods, and these human sacrifices were captured by the defeated side in the war.
They often slit the blood vessels of prisoners of war with sharp obsidian-tipped knives, smeared their blood on the mouths of the gods, and then gouged out the hearts of human sacrifices to dedicate to the gods.
Such a cruel blood sacrifice, but not a single Maya objected, because in their opinion, the power of the gods is not endless, it will gradually weaken with the passage of time, and only the sacrifice of human blood to the gods can keep him eternal divine power.
Therefore, the Mayans believed that blood sacrifices were an important way to gain the favor of the gods, and only by doing so could they maintain the prosperity of the kingdom and gain the power of the gods and the undead. i0 t1706231537:
