"This is not a matter of defense, it is a matter of principle. I feel there is no need for Liu Qingci to lie on this issue. After all, it is an irrelevant issue. As long as she can bring us to this place, is she a descendant of that Lamaism?

This is not a big problem, isn't it? Uncle Dongfang also said just now that there might have been a pasture here before, and maybe there were herds of cattle and sheep here? Or in other words, this ancient city was not built by lamas at all, but

The city was already there when the lamas came here, so this is not necessarily correct, right?" I said with a blushing face.

"Hey, when did our little Ye Zi become so smart?" the fat man said with a smile.

"Let's talk about it!" I glared at the fat man and said.

The fat man raised his hands and said, "Yes, Lao Chen and I were both wrong. We shouldn't have said that. Fatty, I apologize to you."

Fatty and I have never argued with each other, or even with anyone. I don’t know what happened this time. Maybe it’s because I still have a glimmer of hope for Liu Qingci, so in their

When I said that to her, I suddenly felt a little inexplicably uncomfortable.

Chen Dongfang noticed my abnormality at this time. He patted my shoulder and said, "What you said makes sense. Okay, it's a waste of time not to ask this unnecessary question. Let's go."

We walked out of these houses, and upon the next discovery, Xiao Qi said: "Do you feel this way? Of course I don't want to argue with you. Putting aside Liu Qingci's problem, you didn't notice it.

The people here seemed to be living a normal life, and then they all disappeared in an instant?"

"Yes. Some of them were eating, and some were sleeping. They didn't have time to take away the jewelry and other items from the house, and some of the food was half eaten." Chen Dongfang nodded.

"Then what caused them to be so panicked? Generally speaking, this situation is either a relatively large natural disaster or an enemy attack." Xiao Qi said.

"I don't know. Let's go. Stop thinking so much. Thinking too much will only make you more tired," Chen Dongfang said.

"Look ahead." The eldest brother said at this time.

We bypassed these slightly higher buildings and saw the temple in front of us at a glance, because the architectural style of the temple is completely different from the style of the houses outside, because the purpose of coming here in the first place was to find a

The temple, so when I saw the temple, I suddenly became interested, and even the mood of arguing just now was gone. The most important thing is that Liu Qingci came here before us, and she should have been there now.

In the temple.

We quickly entered the temple. When we entered the temple, we could feel the status of religion in the minds of Tibetans at that time. Many of the walls of this temple were mottled with paint, but we could still see colorful murals on the walls of the temple.

When seeing the murals here, Chen Dongfang looked at me and said: "It seems that Ye Zi is right, we have wronged Liu Celadon. Looking at the murals, this ancient city should have been built during the Tang Dynasty, because of the style of the murals here.

It’s completely in the style of the Tang Dynasty.”

"Datang?" Fatty said in disbelief.

"I can't be wrong about this. The Li family has a lot of antiques, and Mr. Liu also likes such things. I also like them very much, so I have done some research on this aspect. In fact, I had this idea just now, because

The buildings outside also have a bit of the architectural style of the Tang Dynasty. From this point of view, this ancient city was built in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and Liu Qingci’s tribe came here in the next year. Ye Zi’s guess is correct, that the Lamaism came here after

At that time, this ancient city already existed, and they lived here, but then something happened, causing it to become an empty city."

"Then this temple was also built during the Tang Dynasty?" Fatty said.

"Yes, the Tang Dynasty was an era when Buddhism was popular. From Journey to the West, we can see that in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains from places like India and Nepal through Tibet, and was accepted there.

The entire period of the rise of Buddhism in China." Chen Dongfang said.

While they were arguing about this, my eldest brother was already studying these murals. I was actually very curious and excited, because the truth of history will always be passed down through media such as mural text. In the murals of Suolongjing on the Yellow River, we

I got a lot of important information, so I immediately put my head over it and started reading.

But the murals here are too mottled, and the content we can get from these mottled murals is also very ordinary. Generally, evil spirits are torturing people. This is what Buddhism calls the eighteen levels of hell. People enter the tenth level after doing evil.

There are eight levels of hell, each level has different tortures, and each mural represents the torture to be endured in the first level of hell, such as pulling out tongues, scissors, iron trees, evil mirrors, etc. These murals are extremely exaggerated, and you can see them

People shudder. This is also a warning from Buddhism to people. It means that if you do evil in life, you will be subjected to these tortures after death. Not only that, the worst thing is the endless hell, where you will never be reincarnated, and you will be tortured every moment.

Can't stop for a moment.

After looking for a long time, there were no clues left. We walked along the corridor and walked into the main hall in front. This main hall was similar to a pagoda. The door was already in decay. I saw a line of footprints on the ground. This

The footprints were just left, and there was no one else here except Liu Qingci before us, so we became even more panicked after seeing the footprints. Li Qing kicked the door open, and then we filed in

And enter.

After entering the pagoda, there were two rows of solemn Buddha statues on both sides. At the end of the corridor, we saw a lama sitting there, staring at us.

At this time, we saw a lama, and we suddenly became nervous. The eldest brother walked in front with his knife sideways, and we all took out daggers. We ignored the two rows of Buddha statues around us, except for the lama at the end of the corridor.

When they got closer, the eldest brother said: "It's the same mummy as in the Suolongjing on the Yellow River."

I walked over and took a look. This lama was motionless, sitting calmly on a futon. His eyes were half-opened, and he seemed to be looking at us. Because they were all mummies, I couldn’t tell the difference between this lama and the other in appearance.

What is the difference between the ones in Suolongjing?

In front of this lama, there is a black ancient book. The material of this ancient book is actually a kind of black stone, which is cold to the touch. On the stone, there are words that we cannot understand. It should be something like a scripture.

When I saw this book, Chen Dongfang reached out and was about to take it. I originally thought there was nothing unusual about it, but the elder brother's knife instantly hit Chen Dongfang's neck.

This change happened literally in an instant.

Li Qing instantly raised his dagger and pointed it at me.

The fat man took out his dagger and pointed it at Li Qing.

Qiu Li also raised her pistol and pointed it at the fat man at this time.

——Our seemingly harmonious team, in front of this black ancient book, all harmony collapsed in an instant.

Li Qing's attack was very ruthless, and his dagger had already scratched my skin. Chen Dongfang's hand over there still maintained the movement in front of the scripture, and I could see sweat flowing down his forehead.

"What are you doing? It's just such a broken book, why are you arguing?" Although the fat man was pointing the dagger at Li Qing, he still shouted.

"Zhongmou, what are you doing?" Chen Dongfang smiled at his elder brother, but the smile was very forced.

"Don't do anything, I'm afraid you might cause trouble by moving things." The elder brother put away the knife.

Chen Dongfang also straightened up and no longer looked at the scriptures on the book.

Chen Dongfang stopped taking it, but his eldest brother bent down and picked up the book. Chen Dongfang's face suddenly turned very ugly. He smiled and said, "Zhong Mou, is it boring to do this?"

"Is this your thing? Do you understand?" the eldest brother asked.

"I said you won't fight again, right? We are a good team, what's the point of a book? Why don't you give it to Fatty, and I will keep it for you," Fatty said with a smile.

"You smart people, why don't you think about it, since I came here before you, if this book was useful, I would have taken it away, will I leave it to you?" At this time, a voice sounded outside the door.

The woman's voice, this voice is very familiar to me, it is Liu Qingci.

As soon as she appeared, she attracted almost all the firepower.
