The Word Is Missing, I Am On A Business Trip To Another World

Chapter 61

The speed of falling is getting faster and faster, the strong wind is hunting, and the surrounding is full of dark space. I don't know where it is, making people feel cramped and suffocating. Suddenly, there is a dizziness, and everyone's consciousness blurs and faints.

"Wake up, Xiao Long!"

"Wake up, edamame!"

Xiao Long opened his eyes and heard Tang Tingyun waking up the others. He raised his eyes and looked around - why is this another secret room?

"Underground palace?!" Heitou blurted out.

Tang Tingyun raised his index finger and said softly: "This is the real underground palace!"

What? ! Xiao was surprised and looked at the space carefully. The floor in front of you is made up of dark blue stones and blue bricks. The blue bricks and stones are a group of squares, and are embedded with bronze-colored metal flat bars. One square is next to another, covering an area of ​​more than 100 square meters.

Just looking at the uneven floor, Xiao Long could feel the thick and deep aura of the underground palace coming to his face. Xiao Long suddenly had a sense of familiarity with famous scenes in novels such as adventure and treasure hunting.

The underground palace is eerie, but the air has normal oxygen content. The group of people woke up from their coma one after another.

Everyone was curious and looked up. There was no hole in the top, it was still a dome. It's just that the material of this dome is not glazed bricks, but a dark wood structure.

Tang Tingyun looked at Mr. Gong: "Are we still under the iron tower?"

Mr. Gong looked up at the dome, then at the structure of the surrounding space walls, stroking his beard and saying: "I'm not sure whether it's under the Iron Tower, but I'm sure we haven't left the underground palace of the Iron Tower."

"Why?" Bai Qingchuan, who was looking at the dome, asked.

"Look, this should be the underground palace of the wooden tower."

Wooden tower? Everyone is confused? Mr. Gong's expression remained as before: "The Iron Tower was originally a wooden tower that was destroyed by lightning. Later, it was rebuilt. The style is still the same as a wooden tower, but all the materials were changed to non-conductive glazed bricks and made of bricks. . Unexpectedly, the underground palace of the wooden pagoda hides another mystery. It is still there. It is really a great blessing for Bianzhou."

Mr. Gong looked happy and sighed.

Tang Tingyun looked at the four huge pillars under the large dome of the underground palace. The four pillars reached the sky and penetrated into the dome 6 meters away. He seemed to be aware of the black pillars, the black dome, and the black wood exposed on the four walls of the underground palace. It seems familiar. Isn't this the same lightning-struck wood from the Thunder Sea?

"I've seen this lightning strike a tree!" He said, everyone was shocked.

Why did the sound just lead me here? He thought of the voice in the small underground palace just now, and his thoughts began to spin. Is there any connection between them? It couldn't be that the lightning from the Thunder Sea struck this wooden tower. Tang Tingyun was thinking wildly for a while.

Everyone looked around the underground palace. In addition to the four pillars in the center, which were roughly held by one person, and on the wall near the north side, there were neatly spaced Buddhist niches made of square blue bricks. I couldn't tell how many square caves there were at the moment. I visually inspected the walls that were more than 6 meters high. Each of the caves contained an exquisite Arhat sculpture.

It looked like a grand scene of five hundred Arhats flying in the clouds, but the sense of oppression also made Xiao Long, who has a tendency to suffer from density syndrome, feel extremely uncomfortable.

"This is the Demon-Conquering Arhat." Bai Qingchuan walked closer and saw clearly the statue inside the Buddhist niche.

Blackhead was suspended in the air and looked at the Buddhist niche on the other side: "There is a statue of Veda here."

"This is Zhong Kui!" Zhu Ying also responded.

Are they all worshiped by gods who subjugate demons?

Tang Tingyun couldn't help but pondered: "Is there something weird here?"

"What's weird?" Zhu Ying, who was looking around, turned around and asked curiously.

"Didn't you notice? There are only four lightning-strike wooden pillars in the center of such a large underground palace, and the rest are empty. Don't you think it's strange?"

Mr. Gong looked around and pondered: "It is possible that this is not only an underground palace, or rather, it is not called an underground palace. It should have other uses."

Everyone fell into deep thought.

Xiao Long walked in front of the west wall and looked up. The Buddhist niches here are all sculptures of Guanyin. They are majestic, calm and pious.

Xiao Long greeted Tang Tingyun: "Everything on the west wall is dedicated to Guanyin. Team Bai, what's on your side?" Xiao Long asked Bai Qingchuan, who was checking on the east side.

"In the Buddhist niche over here is Master Guan!" Bai Qingchuan on the east side responded loudly.

"To the north is the god who subjugates demons, to the west is Guanyin, and to the east is Master Guan. What's on the south?"

Tang Tingyun asked, and everyone looked at the south wall. The south wall only has blue bricks and strips of stone and thunderbolt wood inlaid in it. There is no Buddhist niche designed to worship the gods.

Xiao Long murmured: "Why is the south wall empty?"

Tang Tingyun patted Xiaolong on the shoulder: "There is no space on the south wall. There should be a lot of articles on the south wall. Go and have a look at the south wall."

As soon as he finished speaking, the black head floating in mid-air on the south wall anxiously shouted, "Look here!"

Everyone hurried over and saw the black-headed finger pointing at a bump with a mark on the stone wall.

What's this? Everyone was surprised that the bulge turned out to be a figure of a red bird, and there was indeed a mystery to the south wall.

"Uh-huh!"

Tang Tingyun stood up from the ground, hanging beside Heitou, and stretched out his hand to press against the bulge on the wall.

"Creak!" The bulge sank in gently.

"Bata"

A crisp sound suddenly sounded behind everyone, making people suddenly excited.

Everyone hurriedly turned back and looked at the pillars, the floor, and the dome. Nothing was abnormal.

"Look at the wall!" Bai Qingchuan saw changes on the wall of the Buddhist niche on the north side at a glance.

Everyone cheered and moved to the north wall.

In the middle of the wall, a Buddhist niche the size of two Buddhist niches appeared, but the Arhat inside was a little different. It is a statue made from a plain body without any glaze decoration, which is completely different from the surrounding statues with colorful glazes.

They found that this Arhat had no facial features, but the amazing thing was that there was a faint mark of an eye engraved on the statue's face and forehead.

"Oracle bone engraved talisman!"

Almost everyone said the same thing. Everyone is so familiar with the talisman carved on the eyes. Why does the plain-faced Arhat have an engraved talisman on his forehead?

"Is this interesting?"

Tang Tingyun muttered, "The eyes engraved on the golden oracle bones should be a product of ancient civilizations. Writing had not yet appeared at that time. And this iron tower was built in a pagoda during the Tianbao period of the Northern Qi Dynasty. This engraved talisman appears on the head of the statue. It must be Is this a foreshadowing that someone deliberately laid here?"

Tang Tingyun thought to himself, is this another plan planned by a big shot? There were too many fantastic things that were unbelievable in the past two days, so Tang Tingyun instinctively speculated like this.

Tang Tingyun glanced at the south wall and asked Zhu Ying, "What time is it now?" Zhu Ying hurriedly replied, "It's exactly 12:30 noon."

"Just in time! I think we came at just the right time -" At this point, Tang Tingyun gasped and fell silent.

What do you mean? It started at the beginning of the conversation but lost the end. It made everyone feel itchy.

"Don't worry, just wait and see!" Old God Tang Tingyun said calmly.

Tang Tingyun stood in front of the Eyeless Buddhist niche, immediately took off the left eye talisman representing the Gate of Life, and slowly leaned it against the forehead of the Eyeless Arhat.

When he was still a finger away from his forehead, the eye talisman on his forehead glowed with a golden light. Tang Tingyun suddenly felt a suction pulling on his hand, "Whoosh"

The left eye engraved talisman in his hand fell away and was perfectly embedded in the pattern of the talisman on his forehead.

Tang Tingyun hurriedly retreated. The eye engraved on the forehead shone brightly, and a beam of light in the shape of an eye immediately shot out, penetrating the four pillars of the hall and shining on the south wall.

As soon as the light fell on the wall - the entire south wall, it was like a curtain covering a window lattice was instantly lifted, and in an instant, dense rays of the noon sun came straight in. Looking at the entire wall, it is like a huge incandescent lamp, illuminating the entire underground palace so brightly that no one can escape.

The black head was suspended in the air, and was suddenly illuminated by the sun. His bright eyes were not used to it, and he hurriedly turned his head and looked down: "Hey, there is no shadow on the pillar." The black head shouted in surprise.

Everyone's eyes felt a little uncomfortable. After all, it had been a while since they entered the underground palace. They had been irritated by the smoke just now, and they had already adapted to the underground environment without sunlight.

Everyone turned to check, and sure enough, no shadow was cast after the light came in. Everyone was amazed.

The eyeless arhat in the north has received the sunlight coming from the south. Suddenly, a ray of light shot out from the talisman on his forehead. However, this beam of light did not hit due south, but went straight to the dome of the underground palace hall - a white light flashed, and a pair of bronze mirrors with faint green light appeared in the center of the dome. Several dark grooves on the bronze mirror began to rotate, glowing with golden light.

"Shua" casts a circular light and shadow from the bronze mirror, hitting the ground between the four lightning-struck wooden pillars.

Immediately, a talisman formation pattern appeared on the green stone floor. In the middle is Yin Yang Tai Chi, glowing with green light and flashing slightly. The eight directions of the arc are the talisman and seal patterns of the twelve earthly branches, and the top circle is the eight-quren solitary pattern.

The presentation of this strange scene is a coherent movement. In an instant, the entire underground palace was filled with light, golden light shone, and the mysterious light was intertwined. It was no longer the empty and empty feeling that everyone had when they first came in.

Everyone was amazed at the sense of mystery and novelty in front of them, and they were also curious about how Tang Tingyun knew that the eye talisman on the forehead of the Eyeless Arhat had such an effect.

Tang Tingyun could see the puzzled looks in everyone's eyes, and explained while moving: "Actually, I don't know either, I'm all blind."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned. Zhu Ying turned to look at Tang Tingyun: "Can this be deceived?! Stop showing off. I'll give you a chance to show off. Let's talk."

"That's right, stop blabbering and just say it, Old Tang!" Maodou also joked, wanting to hear how he discovered the mystery.

Tang Tingyun chuckled: "I'm telling the truth, but you don't believe me anymore. You're really blind..."

Mr. Gong answered with a smile on his lips: "Then tell me how you got it right?"

"Hurry up, Tang Xiaoer, why are you talking so much nonsense?!" Blackhead was always watching from the air in the hall. He felt that Tang Tingyun was being annoying, so he yelled directly below.

"That's it..." Tang Tingyun just started to speak, but was attracted by Bai Qingchuan's words and stopped.

"I recognize this bronze mirror!"

Bai Qingchuan, who was standing between the four pillars and looking up, said. Before he finished speaking, he jumped up to the top of the dome, looked closely at the bronze mirror that cast light, and flew down after a moment.

"This is the Qiankun Demon Suppressing Mirror!" Bai Qingchuan said in his unhurried tone.

Demon-suppressing mirror! The legends about the demon-suppressing mirror are all folk anecdotes and allusions passed down from ancient times. They were originally illusory and fabricated stories passed down by word of mouth. Unexpectedly, this thing actually exists in the world.

But how could Bai Qingchuan know that.

Bai Qingchuan glanced at everyone and said the answer everyone wanted: "I have read a description of it in a demon hunting classic "The Ancient Mirror", and it is the same." Oh, everyone was relieved.

Suddenly, they heard Tang Tingyun say: "This is the Demon Suppressing Mirror, so my inference will be more illustrative." Everyone looked at Tang Tingyun and continued to listen to his explanation.

"Do you still remember Mr. Gong's judgment when he came in just now? He said that this place is not just the underground palace, but it may have other uses! I found that the things enshrined on the walls were very different and had profound meanings, so I Just think about the relationship.

Look -" Tang Tingyun moved forward and pointed to the niche on the north wall, "This wall is all dedicated to the gods who conquer demons and eliminate monsters. The east wall is Lord Guan, the west side is Guanyin Bodhisattva, and the south wall does not enshrine anything. "

Tang Tingyun looked around at the four walls, and then said: "South, East, North, West, the four images of the twenty-eight constellations, I just wanted to see if there is any corresponding relationship.

On the north side is the god who subjugates demons. With the Yellow River as its back, all the chaotic, dirty, ghosts and sprites are blocked by the north wall. Everyone knows that when chaos first opened, everything was born from the state of Yin and Yang.

Just like a man takes care of a woman, the north wall takes care of the south wall. If the north wall is against the Yellow River to the north of the iron tower, which is the territory of the black turtle, then we can define the north wall as an indestructible support and support, a barrier to resist ghosts and monsters. A solid barrier. "

Tang Tingyun paused, glanced at the black head in mid-air and continued, "The corresponding south wall should be Suzaku, the main fire of the Five Elements. Besides, the south wall does not enshrine any Bodhisattva, so it should have its own purpose.

So I continued to look at the east wall. In the east was the Qinglong, and the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, so it was not surprising that it was dedicated to the Second Master Guan. The second master Guan is loyal, brave and righteous, and Bo Yuntian is sitting in the east. It is the purple energy coming from the east, and the sword is flying and the horse is flying. The blue dragon blocks ghosts and monsters. "

Tang Tingyun waved his big hand and walked quickly to the west wall: "Look to the west, Guanyin Bodhisattva, dressed in white, corresponds to the white tiger. The west represents the paradise world, where you go after you become a Buddha. Therefore, the purpose of the four walls should be to attract and kill the devil. Reborn in the Pure Land of the West.”

Zhu Ying asked: "Why not enshrine Amitabha Buddha?"

"Oh, this is related. Do you know who the eldest son of Amitabha is?"

"I don't know," Zhu Ying shook her head.

"His eldest son is Guanyin Bodhisattva, so worshiping Guanyin is in line with local knowledge, and this connection is established." Tang Tingyun stood in the center of the pillar and talked eloquently. Everyone gradually felt that the clouds were clearing and some reasonable truths were touched.

"At this time, I look back at the red bird in the south. It represents the sun, and the sun means vitality, so there must be a mystery to this wall." Tang Tingyun moved to the south wall again.

"So the mechanism marked with Suzaku was touched on the south wall, and the talisman engraved on the eyes of the Eyeless Arhat was discovered, which triggered a series of strange scenes and verified the differences of this underground palace. Just now, the white team confirmed that there is a magic-suppressing mirror on the dome. It also shows that this place has a lot to do with conquering demons. This is my vague inference."

After Tang Tingyun finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the underground palace hall, and everyone fell into deep thought. Then their expressions became brighter one after another, and they all gave Tang Tingyun a thumbs up.

Bai Qingchuan was the first to speak up: "As expected of Team Tang! The reasoning is perfect, the assumptions are bold, the facts are consistent with the inferences, and the facts are basically consistent with the inferences. I admire you greatly." He stepped forward and gave Tang Tingyun a fist bump, a hammer fist, and a high five. It is the exclusive action of congratulating, applauding and cheering the Buzhoushan Special Bureau System.

Zhu Ying also had a smile on her face: "Old Tang, awesome! This one is more reliable. Not bad, not bad!" Everyone burst out laughing after hearing this.

Mr. Gong said with a smile: "Based on this inference, everyone should be careful next time."
