Zanxing

Chapter 156: The Empty City (2)

The hairpin star's eyes wandered around the two of them, thinking in his heart.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Baiying covered the door handle of the palace with one hand and pushed the door abruptly.

Everyone unanimously clenched the spiritual tool in their hands, lest any monsters or ghosts suddenly pop out of the door.

The door was slowly pushed open after a dull loud noise.

It was just a small gap at first, and then the black gap got bigger and bigger, and a smell of old dust came from behind the door. It seems that the gate of this gorgeous palace has not been pushed by anyone for years. There was some dim light from inside, and Mimi screamed Ouch, jumped up, and slipped in through the crack of the door.

There was no other movement for a while.

Hairpin Xing breathed a sigh of relief, Gu Baiying had already held the embroidered bone gun and walked into the palace. She quickly followed.

This place is a bit like the front hall of the Taiyan sect, but it is much more gorgeous than the Taiyan sect. The entire palace was very empty, and it seemed to have several floors. There are some beautifully decorated lamps on the wall and on the ground, and some faint lights emerge from them, making the palace even more beautiful.

In the middle, a circle is stacked with stones. At first glance, it looks like a teleportation array, but it is probably not a teleportation array. There are also some herbs and glowing crystals scattered on the ground. I don't know what is written on it. character paper. Gu Baiying bent down and picked up a piece of talisman paper and twisted it, his eyes stunned: It's an altar.

Is this the altar of the Snake Witch Tribe? Hairpin Xing looked around: What is painted on this mural?

The four walls of the temple are all painted with colorful murals, and the tones are very bright and bold. Take a closer look, it is exactly the same as the totem they saw on the city gate wall when they came. On the top is a detailed depiction of a beautiful and extraordinary woman holding two green and red snakes, looking into the distance in the desert.

There's dancing here. Mendong pointed to the wall: This is a painting of auspicious snakes, right?

Sure enough, this mural also depicts two snow-white camels pulling gorgeous chariots next to the roaring bonfire in the desert. The veiled woman looks back, and the crowd enthusiastically raises the snake lamp in their hands above their heads. screen.

In addition, there are women sitting on high seats, the people below kneeling on the ground to pray with her, or the phantoms of giant snakes in the firelight. The entire mural is indeed depicting the legend about the snake witch tribe.

However, the hairpin star always felt a little strange. Is the Snake Witch really so high profile? It seems to be somewhat different from the snake witch clan in Yinli's mouth.

This mural seems to be painted with gold powder. Tian Fangfang smacked her lips and began to touch: I don't know if I can scrape a little and take it away. I thought there was no one who did such a great job except for the royal family of Li'er Kingdom. It seems that it is no one else. Too rich. Our sect is too poor.

Hairpin Xing was silent for a moment: You are disrespectful to the murals of the snake witch tribe, be careful that the snake will come out of the murals and take you away.

Where to take it? Tian Fangfang asked happily: Is it going to a place like this where gold and silver are everywhere? Amitabha, then I really can't ask for it.

Mimi jumped in front of the mural and scratched the corner of the mural with her claws curiously. Hairpin star looked up, in all fairness, the artist who painted this mural was really superb. Not to mention the lifelike streets of the city, even the folds of the clothes of every tiny figure are extraordinarily meticulous. After looking at it for a long time, people will even have an illusion, as if this is not a mural, but a living person reduced to the size of the palm of your hand. directly into the wall.

Just thinking of this, she suddenly saw the saint on the fresco, and the eyes outside the veil rolled slightly.

Hairpin Xing was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had read it wrong, and was about to turn around to ask Tian Fangfang, who was beside him, when he saw Tian Fangfang reaching out to the saint in the fresco, with a strangely obsessed expression.

Senior brother! Hairpin Xing grabbed his back collar and tried to wake him up, but Tian Fangfang, who was joking with Hairpin Xing just now, didn't hear it. She stared straight at the mural and walked forward, as if she was going to walk in. paint inside.

Hairpin Xing thought that something was wrong, and was about to wave the flower stick. The next moment, a silver light suddenly stabbed in front of him. He only heard a crash, and the bone gun divided the mural in front of him in two from the middle. The woman's head and body were split into two by the silver spear, and a crack suddenly appeared on the painting wall.

As if awakened from a dream, Tian Fangfang's eyes gradually became clearer. When he saw the painting wall in front of him, he was startled. He pointed at the wall and shouted, Who? Who scratched the painting on this wall!

It's me. Gu Baiying put away the bone embroidery gun with a cold face, her eyes still lingering with anger, I said to be careful, but I was actually confused by this low-level illusion, and I went back to the sect to copy the exercises a thousand times.

What illusion? Tian Fangfang looked at the hairpin in confusion: What does Shishu mean by this, have I just been confused?

Hairpin Xing sighed: Senior brother, you just saw this painting and you were fascinated. You didn't hear me no matter what I told you. What happened?

I don't know. Tian Fangfang heard the words and quickly moved away from the mural: Is this thing so evil?

Meng Ying and Mu Chengxiao came over, Meng Ying looked at the half-destroyed mural: Uncle, this is not an ordinary illusion.

Gu Baiying was just annoyed by Tian Fangfang's carelessness, so he said the words low-level illusion, but obviously this illusion is not something ordinary people can do. Most people who cultivate immortals are reluctant to practice illusion, because illusion is too easy to be seen through. The things in each person's heart are different, and the illusions they see will be different. If many people face the same illusion together, it is easy for those who perform illusions to reveal their faults.

And at least for now, all of them see the same thing.

Is this the result of Mosha? Mendong hid behind Meng Ying: Uncle, we won't be in danger, right?

Didn't you say that the damselfly must not be a bad person, are we all over-hearted? Hairpin Xing deliberately teased him: Why, now you know that you are afraid?

Who's afraid? Mendong blushed: I'm afraid that you don't have much energy right now. When the demons come out and are taken away by the demons, the uncle will have to work hard to save you!

This child is just too hard to be cute, and Hairpin Xing is too lazy to care about him. Mu layerxiao walked to the mural, squatted down and stroked the bottom corner of the mural, and muttered, There seems to be something here.

Everyone was startled.

When Mu Chengxiao was talking, he had already reached out and uncovered the corner of the mural. At first, only a small corner was uncovered. Gradually, the uncovered corner became larger and larger, revealing the charred stone wall underground.

This is. Meng Ying clenched the long sword in her hand.

The four walls of the original temple looked very flat. The walls were probably wrapped in woven fabrics, and the woven fabrics were painted with paint mixed with gold and silver. And just now Gu Baiying's shot split the entire wall in two, and the extra tightly wrapped fabric on the wall now rolled up a corner, which was just discovered by Mu layerxiao.

After that layer of golden, incomparably peaceful and lively murals was torn apart, a completely different coke wall was revealed underneath. This is a stone wall without any decoration, as if it was burned by a fire, revealing some dark colors.

There seems to be a painting on it. Hairpin Xing noticed that there was also a little white pattern on the stone wall below.

Mu layerxiao moved very quickly, but after a while, he removed the layer of fabric covered on it, so the stone wall below was completely exposed to everyone's eyes.

It seems that the gorgeous coat has been removed, and the palace has no bright murals, and it instantly becomes gloomy and terrifying. There are some scribbled patterns painted on the wall, which are obviously not as delicate as the outer painting. It seems that the person who painted it hastily painted it in a very urgent situation, and can only vaguely see the general shape.

The most inner picture should be of a woman. Because she has long hair and holds two long snakes in her hand.

Meng Ying said: This should be the saint of the snake witch clan.

The Holy Maiden stood on a high slope and swung the two long snakes out with her arms outstretched. Not far away, there was a monster with green faces and fangs crawling on the ground, as if injured by the Saintess. In the distant city wall, many people are praying with their hands folded.

This Hairpin Xing deliberately said: It seems to be a picture of the saintess protecting the people of Wufan City.

In the second painting a little further ahead, the monster was defeated. The people hiding in the city lifted the body of the monster and carried it back. Some people surrounded the saint, and they seemed to be very grateful to her.

This monster doesn't look very good, Tian Fangfang rubbed her chin, but the saint is very brave.

Then in the third painting, the picture began to change. This saint seems to have settled here. She sits on a high seat, and a woman who looks like a commoner knelt in front of her, as if she was begging for something. She was holding a baby in her arms, the baby's eyes were closed, and there was a pile of gold in front of her.

I seem to understand this, Mendong pointed to the painting and said, It should be this woman's child who is ill, and she asked the saint to help him heal. Mendong said and became confused: The saint of the snake witch clan. Do you still know medical skills? Isn't this something you should seek a doctor for?

Hairpin Xing moved in his heart and looked at the fourth painting. Sure enough, in the fourth painting, the woman left with the baby with her eyes open, and the gold was left at the feet of the saint.

I'm afraid it's not a cure. After confirming the conjecture in his heart, Hairpin Xing said: It's a transaction.

Meng Ying frowned: Deal?

When I was in Li'er before, Yin Li told me that he made a deal with the snake witch of the snake witch tribe. The snake witch helped the merman turn the fish tail into human legs, and the price was to take his Demon Dan.

The snake witch of the Snake Witch Tribe only makes deals of equal value. Hairpin stared at the woman in the mural: She is not healing, she just made a deal with this woman. She made this woman's child heal, and In exchange for the deal, the woman paid gold.

Gold for the recovery of the child's condition. That's the deal.
