Chapter 2241 The sixth floor of the temple: the Tao under the high platform
"Okay, you have to be careful, I will protect Miss Ruola." Shita promised, holding his stone ax in his hand.
Bing Zhixie jumped up the first stone steps. Seeing that nothing happened, she continued walking up. When she reached the top of the high platform, there was a tall stone tablet on one side with Phoecanian characters written on it. In the middle was a stone tablet with Phoenician characters.
There are many stone pavilions with arched gates. There are four black statues of unknown gods outside the four corners of the stone pavilion. Inside the pavilion is a jade coffin like a jade bed. The jade coffin beast is carved with the appearance of a garland, and in the middle lies a white jade
Goddess, is there really someone buried here? But shouldn’t it be the most sacred place in the temple? Could it be that the one sleeping there is Glonus?
The strange smell emanated from here, and the abnormal sound also came from here. Bing Zhixie listened carefully and found that the sound came from a very far away place. It was very penetrating and seemed to come from jade.
Under the coffin, it seems to be in the wall behind the bed.
He exited the pavilion and looked again. There was a male humanoid white jade statue on the pavilion, half-kneeling, holding his hands together as if praying for something, and in a gesture of surrender. He felt that this stone statue looked familiar, but
Because it was sideways, I didn't identify it carefully, but looked at another stone statue outside the pavilion with seven sitting figures in various postures. They were all scholar-like old men, wearing desert clothing.
Bing Zhixie did not notice the danger and called Ruola up to identify herself. Ruola said that this was the tomb of the monarch of the Dusk Sand Country, and the last king was buried there. She saw in the tomb of the last dusk sand king in the Tomb Valley.
The stone carvings and murals of the monarchs are very similar to the half-kneeling men on the top of the pavilion, and the style of the crown on the statue is also the same.
Bing Zhixie asked Shita to check if there was any mechanism. After looking around and finding no mechanism, he finally set his sights on the jade coffin in the pavilion.
Shi Ta walked to the jade coffin and was about to push open the coffin lid. He glanced at Bing Zhixie. Bing Zhixie nodded. He shouted hard and pushed the coffin beast slowly away. At the same time, a mechanical voice came from inside.
The jade coffin is large and deep. There are no remains or bones inside, only an open jade door. Inside the jade door is a horizontal passage, which is about seven or eight meters wide and high. It is very long and deep.
Shita leaned his chin on the edge of the coffin, looked down, and asked, "Are we going in?"
"Wait a minute." Bing Zhixie jumped up from inside and said, "Ruola, I remember you and Mr. Tyson told me the story of Glonas destroying the Four Kingdoms."
"Hmm." Ruola nodded and said, "Mr. Tyson knows better. What's wrong? Ah, you want to say that Glonus made four crowns with the faces of the four kings here?"
"It's very possible." Bing Zhixie said: "This was probably deliberately arranged and designed by Glonas. The four defeated kings are all believers in the Sand Temple. Placing their masked crowns here is a gift.
, it can also express one's achievements and abilities to the sand god of faith, and it can also be regarded as a design to guard the tomb."
Shita said: "If there is one king, there will be three other kings. There are also three stone platforms here with jade coffins?"
"Maybe it's not here with us," Bing Zhixie said.
"What do you mean?" Shita asked.
Bing Zhixie said: "We have been wandering around for so long, and we haven't seen anyone else or heard their voices. Moreover, the environment here has become very similar to the first level, which is probably related to space. I guess that the vortex has
When we threw it out, it fell to a different dimension. Others should have fallen to other dimensions."
"Yes, it's impossible for so many people to be separated. What if there is always some light and sound here." Shita said: "What should I do? Is there only one way in?"
"Yeah. I'll go in front, you guys follow me." Bing Zhixie turned over and jumped into the coffin, handed the lantern to Ruola, and walked into the passage.
The passage was a straight line at first, and then the roads became scattered. Bing Zhixie could not distinguish the route, so he could only walk in silence. Soon he found that at the end of these passages was a jade statue, and all of them were wearing crowns.
, a jade statue with a sword hanging from its waist. There is also a stone inscription under the jade statue.
Ruola couldn't recognize all the words, but she could probably understand their meaning. She said: "In the documents I collected before translating, I found that there was a tradition in ancient Phoenicia. They would make statues of successive kings and put the statues with them.
One of the most cherished treasures was offered to the Sand Temple, which represents the following and protection of the gods. Perhaps ancient Phoenicia was not the only country with this tradition."
Bing Zhixie said: "If you think about it this way, this passage should have been there a long time ago, and the things on the jade coffin outside should have been added by Glonas later."
Shita looked around: "I didn't see any treasures. Is there really one? Zola?"
"Yes." Bing Zhixie reminded: "Look what he is holding in his hand."
Only then did Shita notice that something dark blue was exposed between the fingers of the stone carving. He jumped up and dug it into the fingers of the jade carving for a long time, and finally pulled out the thing. It turned out to be a dark blue gem: "
Is it just such a gem? How can this be considered the most cherished treasure?"
"Bring it to me and take a look." Bing Zhixie took the stone he threw and looked at it. The bottom of the stone was black and the top was blue. The deepest part of the stone was so black that it turned purple, and there were some strange lines on it: "This may be a piece of stone."
Wheel Stone.”
"What is a wheel stone?" Ruola asked.
Shita jumped down from the platform and said: "To put it simply, the wheel stone is the domineering stone in the body of the King of War, and it is the core of the totem's power."
Bing Zhixie threw the stone back to Shita, who was looking at him. Shita smiled: "It's really interesting. This thing is difficult to do. It has to be taken out alive, otherwise it will melt into the body and disappear. But this thing is valuable only if it is used well. If you don't use it,
Well, if you can't use its full capabilities, it won't be that valuable, and it won't be considered a top-level treasure, at least not as valuable as the staff of the next level."
Bing Zhixie said: "This kind of preciousness may not be based on value. Maybe this stone has special meaning to the owner of the statue."
Shita said happily: "So, if we search each room one by one, we can collect a lot of treasures."
Ruola was worried: "It's such a waste of time. It's been a long time since we came in, and now we're sleepy again. It's probably been another day."
Bing Zhixie said to Shita: "The most precious things must be on the seventh floor. We don't need to search here one by one. The key is to meet up with others."
Shita said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, no matter how precious things are, life is still more valuable. I won't say anymore, Miss Ruola, please insist not to sleep for a while, and we will find another way."
While Bing Zhixie and the others were exploring the coffin passage, Hayate led Tyson and others to find the coffin passage under another high platform and went deep into it.
