This question has been hanging in everyone's mind now.
Is it really a ghost?
This seems to be the best answer, but when you think about it carefully, there are many far-fetched points.
In the following time, everyone searched this room full of gold and bronze statues, hoping to find an exit inside so that they could bypass those blue ghosts.
But Chen Zhi kept staring at the mural, especially looking at the three words "Yao Po Pavilion"...
Every Chinese knows the meaning of the term demon.
Anything that does not conform to normal social cognition is called an evildoer.
To put it simply, it was different from the mainstream of the world at that time.
When the ancestors of merchants appeared, they had already entered human civilization, so these creatures were different from human civilization.
That’s why it’s called a demon!!
And "Po!"
The meaning of this word is very broad...
First of all, don’t worry about whether there are ghosts in the world.
No matter what it is, if it is called a soul, it must be in a non-entity state!!
Chen Zhi has seen this kind of non-entity thing before. They are actually just a materialized form of pre-life consciousness. They are not the real ghosts and have no ability to attack.
Those blue ghosts are obviously different. They can swallow people and then move to another place. This is very scary.
This brings us back to the original question. Things without entities are simply impossible to defeat. Since they cannot be defeated, how can they pass through that area?
While Chen Zhi was thinking, Ji Ying and Jian Di checked the room.
It turns out that the Golden Bronze Man Ancestral Temple is the end point, and the entire underground passage of the palace ends here.
There is no way out ahead.
They still had to take a detour and go back to the right path. In other words, they couldn't get around the Yaopo Pavilion.
This matter is becoming very troublesome now...
When Fat Wei thought about those ghosts, he felt frightened.
"Those ghosts can't even catch a shadow, they can't be done at all!!
After that blue ghost thing swallowed me, it was as cold as if I had fallen into an ice hole.
Nothing can be seen!!
I wanted to go back and pick it up, but I didn't pick up anything and it fell into the ditch.
How do we make something like this?
We still have to find a way to get around it!!”
"It can't be circumvented!!" Ji Ying said with certainty from the side,
"I've already seen it when I was up there. This is the layout of the hall, and there is the only way to go. There is no second way to go."
"Otherwise... we might as well just use a stupid method.",
Fat Wei patted his head and made a suggestion,
"We might as well rush in swarm and let them swallow them, but they won't kill us anyway.
He vomits wherever he goes, and then runs back until he vomits us inside!!
Let’s see how many times they can torment us.”
"no!",
Ji Ying immediately expressed her objection:
"This method is too risky!
You were just lucky and got spit into the sink just now, but next time, it won't be the same.
And they don't necessarily just eat people, they may have other ways of attacking.
Have you ever thought about it?
If I spit you into the abyss next time, will you still be alive now?"
"Then what do you think we should do?",
Fat Wei helplessly spread his hands, indicating that there was nothing he could do.
"Those things don't even have any substance, what can we do with them?
If you can't beat them, why don't you still try to reason with them?
I said that the old emperor of the Shang Dynasty was really sick in his head, so he used these things to guard his tomb..."
"What did you say?",
These words of Fat Wei suddenly reminded Chen Zhi, his mind immediately turned over, and he immediately figured out everything.
Yes! Guard the tomb!!
Are these blue ghosts really guarding the tomb here?
Not necessarily...
Chen Zhi touched the pattern called "Monster Pavilion" on the mural and thought silently,
[They have always thought about the problem from the perspective of an intruder.
But from another perspective, the problem is actually very clear.
If we think about the problem from the perspective of the Shang Dynasty emperor who lived here at that time, what was the purpose of building the Monster Pavilion here?
This Monster Pavilion probably existed a long time ago, and the royal family of all generations lived in this palace.
What exactly is its function?
Create danger?
This is completely illogical.
Judging from these war murals, the existence of these blue ghosts here has only one meaning.
That is to promote the merits of the merchant ancestors in battle!]
"Are you saying those things are trophies?",
Ji Ying heard Chen Zhi's thoughts and said:
“That makes sense!!
Xiqi also preserves many relics of past enemies, armors, weapons, etc.
Those are the proof of a victor and something worth showing off."
"This idea is right...",
Chen Zhi nodded gently:
"While those blue ghosts were still alive, they were hunted by the ancestors of the merchants.
Then their heads were cut off, painted with gold talismans and nailed to the wall, and placed here as trophies.
And their other form, the blue ghost we saw, is also kept here as an exhibit, immortal, to commemorate the public achievements of the merchant ancestors."
"So what!", Fat Wei was still confused,
"Even if you know what these things are used for here, so what?
We still can’t get rid of them!! We still can’t get through it!!”
"We have to think about it in another way..." Chen Zhi said,
"If you were the emperor of the Shang Dynasty, would you let harmful things exist in your palace for a long time?
Don’t forget, this place was very prosperous at that time. Not only did the powerful Fox clan live there, but also many relatives of the emperor, concubines in the harem, etc....
Those are ordinary humans!!
If you put these uncontrollable monsters here and hurt people, aren't you asking for trouble?"
"So..." Fat Wei seemed to have come back to his senses.
At this time, I heard Chen Zhi continue to say,
"so……
There must have been some way to completely control these monsters.
So that the emperor can safely put them here as exhibits.
Have you noticed?",
After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he raised his finger and pointed at the Demon Soul Pavilion on the mural. He saw that the line representing the gate was shiny, just like the color of the control stone.
"We all know that control stones are things that control divine creatures.
In human palaces, the amount of control stone used is very small.
Even the doors used to close this mythical beast are ordinary metal doors.
But the gate of this Demon Soul Pavilion is completely made of high-grade controlled stone.
What’s the reason?”
"oh oh!"
Fat Wei was suddenly enlightened when he heard this and understood immediately:
“It turns out that these things are also afraid of controlling stones!!
That’s easy to handle, we all carry rock-controlling bullets!!”
"right!",
When Chen Zhi said this, he used a fluorescent stick to draw an image of a head on the wall.
"Everyone just noticed that there is a golden symbol on the forehead of the Smurfs, which is exactly the same as the one on the skulls.
I suspect it's an ancient manipulation spell.
Theoretically speaking, this kind of spell can completely defeat the puppet as long as the main body is destroyed.
So, as long as you hit the symbols on Blue Phantom’s forehead with a stone-controlled bullet, these things should disappear..."
