This tower is actually empty.

But it is not completely empty.

This tower is built of stone. From the outside, it is more than ten meters high. The space inside is also very large, but it only has one floor.

"Strange, what kind of tower is this?"

Pan Zi also muttered, shining a flashlight, and then his face changed.

Countless slender shadows were shaking on the wall, which looked dense and constantly shaking and twisting, making people's scalps numb.

"Fuck, what the hell is that densely packed on the wall?"

Pan Zi took a step back and raised his gun.

He said nervously: "Hold your guns, there is something wrong with this tower. It seems to be full of poisonous snakes. The number seems to be more than the ancient ship we stayed in before."

"This tower may be a tower used by the owner of the forbidden area to raise snakes!"

"If that's the case, then the four of us are here to deliver express delivery, oh no, to deliver takeout."

A Ning's face was solemn.

"Panzi, don't move. Don't alarm them."

If this tower is really full of poisonous snakes, there must be at least thousands of them.

Panzi might kill a few snakes with a volley of bullets, but it would be no small matter if the remaining thousands were alarmed.

In addition, the Feng Shui acupuncture points they were looking for were in this tower, so they had to be cautious.

Ah Ning solemnly warned Panzi, then reached out and took out a silent flare equipped by the program team from her backpack.

The flare made a slight "squeak" sound and slowly rose into the air.

The four people finally saw the whole picture of the tower.

This tower really has only one floor, and the dome is unimaginably high.

And the stone walls in the tower are all hollowed out.

The hollowing out has become small grids of varying sizes.

And in these grids, snake shadows of various shapes are stretched out.

Long and short, more and less.

These are actually stone snake sculptures that imitate the life forms of various snakes!

Just now, when Panzi's flashlight shone on them, the shadows were cast on the wall. As Panzi's flashlight shook, the shadows also kept shaking, giving people the illusion that there were all living venomous snakes inside.

"Oh my God."

A Ning stood beside Ye Ran. She looked up and stared at the stone sculptures on the wall with a look of fanaticism.

"This is beyond our imagination."

"Master Ye, how could the ancient people thousands of years ago have such ability and wisdom to build such a tall snake tower and carve so many snake statues in the snake tower?"

"This carving technique is so lifelike. Going back a thousand years, look at the carvings unearthed in the museum, and there is no such level."

What an amazing achievement this would have been thousands of years ago?

Ye Ran stared at these snake sculptures for a while.

He said: "No wonder the owner of this forbidden land built a tower for worship, which is totally incompatible with the Feng Shui of the forbidden land. Because this tower is not used to worship gods, but to worship these snakes."

"Or, in the forbidden city at that time, the ancients generally believed that snakes were gods, or messengers of gods."

Only this makes sense.

A Ning nodded and said: "From the moment we entered the forbidden land, we can see that the owner of this forbidden land highly respects the abilities of snakes, especially these pheasant necks, which must have been worshipped thousands of years ago."

So, there is this tower.

"Master Ye, how should we get out now?"

Pan Zi didn't care much about these flowery reasonings. He took another look at the carvings of these snakes and walked over to ask.

"I don't think it's right."

Ye Ran frowned slightly. Although these snakes looked very vivid and almost every one of them had a different shape, if this tower was placed outside, it would be an absolute intangible cultural heritage and could apply for a 5A tourist attraction.

However, the vertical pupils of these snakes were very dull.

Rather than being dull, it was better to say that they were looking in the same direction.

"These snakes are all looking at the top of the tower."

Ye Ran said softly, then raised his head and looked towards the top of the tower.

Because the top of the tower was too high and Panzi's flashlight had limited lighting, they didn't look closely just now.

The flare had risen to the highest point. At this time, the four people looked up and couldn't help holding their breath-

At the top of the tower was a huge snake head!

The diameter of the snake head was five meters.

The snake opened its huge mouth, revealing long and sharp fangs, and its mouth was facing downwards, spitting out a long, forked core, with extremely resentful and vicious eyes.

The golden vertical pupils reflected light, and the people who saw it were instantly shocked.

Pan ZiziAfter taking a closer look, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Damn it, it's made of stone, and it's specially painted. The eyes are made of two large tiger eye stones. It looks like a living thing. Who does the owner of this forbidden area want to scare to death?!"

Ye Ran said helplessly: "The air in this tower is not very circulated. In ancient times, gems were ground into powder for coloring, so as long as the closed environment is maintained, it will not completely fade after hundreds of millions of years, let alone thousands of years."

"From the look of it, these little snakes on the wall should also appear as tributes. There is only one object of worship, that is, the huge snake head on the top of the head."

With the level of craftsmen at that time of the Queen Mother of the West, it is estimated that it took a lot of manpower and material resources to build such a tower.

When Ye Ran said this, his heart suddenly jumped.

He had a bad feeling.

Why worship such a big snake head?

And this snake head is too realistic, so realistic that it can almost be used as a 3D special effect.

According to the customs of the Queen Mother of the West at that time, if you want to worship a legendary, never-seen giant snake, you generally paint a mural or make a clay statue, and it is the kind of exaggerated image, which is more reasonable.

This snake head is too realistic, and the manpower and material resources spent are unimaginable.

Why did the Queen Mother of the West exhaust manpower to do such a thing?

Could it be that there is really such a giant snake in the forbidden area?

That was thousands of years ago.

This snake is likely dead.

But, what if it is not dead?

Thousands of years have passed, how big should the snake grow?

Ye Ran suddenly felt a little cold on his back, and the huge snake head, the two tiger eye stones embedded in the eyes sparkled under the illumination of the flare, as if it was alive.

The air in the tower is not circulating, and there is an unpleasant smell. The four people standing in the tower may feel uncomfortable both psychologically and physically.

At this moment, Ye Ran suddenly saw the young man walk to the front of the stone wall without saying a word, stretched out his slender fingers into the stone snake group, and moved his wrist slightly.

Then he retracted his fingers and hooked his palm towards him.

Young man, are you calling him over?
