Chapter 2999 Zen Master Wuchen 15

"Zen Master, I think you are right. This place doesn't look like a caucus." After seeing the moss on the wall, I immediately said to the old monk Wuchen behind me.

"Oh, why do you say that? Have you discovered anything?" the old monk asked in confusion.

I nodded and said, "I am a graduate student of archaeology and I ask myself that I still have some research on tombs.

Look at the oldness of this corridor, it has been at least hundreds of years, which means that it has been built for a long time.

The ancients paid special attention to the construction of tombs, and waterproofing and moisture-proofing were the basic practices.

I have also been to many ancient tombs, and these tombs have almost one thing in common, that is, dryness.

The first thing to do in this kind of underground tomb is to dry it, so that the body of the tomb owner can be preserved better.

But look at this corridor, we only walked 50 meters and it was so wet, and the moss on the walls grew out.

This obviously does not conform to the characteristics of ancient tombs, and there is no treatment for even a little waterproofing and drying here.

I ask, how could such a place be an ancient tomb?

From my perspective, this place doesn’t look like an ancient tomb, but rather a underground palace built in a hasty manner.

As for what is done here, it’s not easy to say for the time being.”

I said all my thoughts in one breath.

The old monk meditated all year round. Although he was a master in the mysterious world, he had very little contact with tombs after all, and he was indeed inferior to me in this regard.

Hearing what I said, he nodded silently and said, "Well, what you said makes sense. So, according to your opinion, where is this place?"

"I don't know where, but I'm sure this is not a tomb." I shook my head, thought for a moment and said, "But this place is so well hidden, we should have the right judgment."

"Oh, what is the right judgment?" asked the old monk.

"This place should be very important, otherwise there would be no need to use invisible methods to cover the entrance." I subconsciously reached out and touched the moss on the wall.

As soon as I finished speaking, the old monk Wuchen grabbed my wrist and anxiously said, "Don't touch the things on the wall!"

But it was too late for him to take action. When he grabbed my wrist, my fingers had already touched the moss on the wall.

The old monk's performance surprised me. I don't know why he was so nervous.

He asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? Have you discovered something?"

When the old monk Wuchen saw that I had touched the moss on the wall, his face immediately became ugly.

He shook his head and said, "The old monk did not find anything. It's just that in such a place, anything is dangerous and must not be touched easily. This is a very dangerous thing."

"This is just ordinary moss, it should be fine." I shrugged helplessly.

Actually, I felt that the old monk was right. It would be very dangerous for me to do this. If there was something wrong with the moss, wouldn’t I go to die by myself?

But I have done it all, what's the use of regret? Now I can only comfort myself.

"What do you think now?" The old monk pulled my hand and observed it carefully.

I looked at my fingers carefully and found nothing strange. There was only a little transparent water stain on the skin on my fingertips, and nothing else was there.

The moss didn't touch my fingers either. Everything seemed normal and there was nothing strange about it.

"It seems that there is no problem. This should be just ordinary moss, so there is no need to make a fuss." I said.

But the old monk was still reluctant to let go. He checked for a while before nodding and said, "I hope nothing will happen. You little guy is too reckless. In such a place, anything may be in danger. You must always be vigilant."

I smiled awkwardly and didn't dare to refute the old monk. In my opinion, his words were indeed good to me. If it weren't for caring about me, he wouldn't have said that to me.

As the saying goes, love is deep and blames it, and the old monk is also concerned about me.

How could I bear to talk back to someone who cares about me? I can only admit my mistake and apologize.

After accepting the old monk's advice, I didn't want to talk nonsense about this issue anymore, so I turned around and walked towards the depths of the passage.

Seeing that I was fine, the old monk stopped getting involved in this issue and followed me all the way to the depths of the corridor.

After walking 50 meters, the moss on the walls became more and more wet, and the ground became more and more wet. There were pools of water everywhere, and I couldn't avoid it.

Because of the old monk's reminder, I dare not get too close to the walls on both sides, for fear that something on the wall would affect me, so I could only skip the water as much as possible.

At first I could avoid it, but later on, the water on the ground was getting more and more, and I couldn't avoid it no matter how hard I could.

In the end, I could only walk inside with the water. Fortunately, the water was not deep, which was only one or two centimeters tall, and it could not even cover my feet.

But even so, I still let my energy cover my feet in case something in the water is harmful to the human body.

The old monk Wuchen also noticed my little movement and nodded to me with satisfaction.

I was wearing leather shoes, and he was wearing cloth shoes. Leather shoes were also waterproof, but cloth shoes were not waterproof at all.

Logically speaking, his shoes should have been wet for a long time, but I accidentally looked at his feet and found that his cloth shoes were not wet at all.

This made me feel a little strange.

At first I thought I had read it wrong, but after a closer look, I realized that I was not wrong. The old monk's cloth shoes were really not wet at all.

When I was about to ask him what was going on, the road ahead came to an end, but I was looking down at the old monk's shoes, but I didn't realize that the front had already reached its end. I was about to bump into it!

The old monk reached out and grabbed my shoulder directly and forced me over.

Because I used too much force, I almost staggered and fell to the ground, but my reaction was quite fast. When he grabbed me, I took a sideways and stabilized my body, so that I did not lose my center of gravity and fell down.

"You little guy, how can you be reckless in doing things? You are still absent-minded in such a place." The old monk blamed.

"Zen Master, I think it's strange, why your shoes are not wet at all." I touched my head and said embarrassedly.

The old monk Wuchen glanced at his feet, then looked at his leather shoes that were already stained with water and said, "As long as you are willing to enter my Buddhism, you will have such skills in less than a few years."

"What! I'm going to enter Buddhism, forget it!" I shook my head repeatedly. I don't want to be a monk.

I immediately turned around and looked forward, and saw a wall covered with moss in front of me. If I bumped into it just now, I would definitely be covered with moss.

Actually, I have touched this moss just now and I have confirmed that these moss is just ordinary moss, and there is nothing strange about it. There is neither poison nor harmful things, so there is no need to be afraid at all.

But the old monk's attitude always makes me feel a little nervous. Now when I see the moss on the wall, I feel an indescribable feeling of disgust in my heart.

I hurriedly took a step back, and when I retreated, I found that there was a narrow passage on my right side, which was hidden inside the wall on the right. At first glance, it was integrated with the surrounding scenery, and it was really hard to find.

If I hadn't seen the shadows in the wall when I was moving just now, I wouldn't have noticed that there would be a passage here!
