The Most Thrilling Tomb Tour: Tomb Raider

Chapter 26 The Temple in the Holy Lake (2)
I was so lost, I sat alone on a pile of rocks in the heavy rain, watching Xiangru and the others still probing there.I think maybe life is like this, when everything is going well, it is a disaster; but when everything is not going well, maybe an opportunity is waiting for you not far away, maybe this is a disaster Blessings come; blessings and misfortunes depend on it.

Where is the source of this corpse?Could it be that my inference is wrong?
Suddenly a very bright thunderbolt illuminated the entire temple, and I saw a roulette-like colored sculpture above the gate of the temple through the instant light.

This roulette-like thing was hugged by an ugly, green-faced, fang-like, ghost-like thing.There are six lines on the roulette radiating from the center, dividing the roulette into six equal parts. Due to the perennial wind and rain, I can't see clearly what is engraved on the roulette.

"Look at the colorful sculpture above, do you recognize it?" I called Deji over and asked, and everyone followed.

"Why don't you recognize it? When I was a child, I always listened to my uncle giving me lectures. Isn't this the wheel of the six realms of reincarnation! The person holding it on it is called the 'Sage King of Wheels', which is very popular in Tibetan monasteries. common!."

"Oh?" Hearing what he said, I fell into deep thought again.

I felt that the construction of this temple was a bit strange, so I went in and wanted to take a good look at it inside and out.

"I say, Comrade Zhijiang! Don't be too hard on it, then you don't want to go around the six realms of reincarnation, do you? The people of Asia, Africa and Latin America are still waiting for us to liberate! If you go, who will follow?" Shall I start a revolution together?" Seeing my pensive look, the fat man chased after me and asked.

"You're right, maybe I really want to go around the six realms of reincarnation." I said seriously.

Everyone also thought that something was wrong with my head, so they quickly caught up and followed me. Xiang Ru and Lao Zhongtou asked "Are you okay" on the left and "What are you thinking" on the right, but I didn't have time to pay attention to it? They went straight upstairs.

When I came upstairs again, I took a flashlight and looked at the murals carefully again. My thoughts gradually became clear, and I couldn't help laughing, which made everyone look at me in surprise.

"What's wrong with you? Do you have a fever?" Xiang Ru put his hand on my forehead and asked with concern.

"I guess I'm crazy about Zongzi..." Fatty murmured from the side.

"I have an idea, let me tell you," I cleared my throat and continued, "If I remember correctly, the Six Realms of Reincarnation is a kind of karma in Buddhism. After a person dies, he will act according to his evil deeds However, in the six worlds of heaven, human beings, asuras, animals, hungry ghosts, and hells, they are turning over and over like a wheel, without a day of rest.”

"That's true. I also know a little bit of Buddhism." Old Zhong Tou answered.

"That's right, I think this temple is a bit weird because of the legend. If it is true according to the legend that this temple was built to suppress the evil spirit of the ghost, then the corpse of the ghost should be crushed here It's just under the temple."

"That's right, when did your brain become so bright? Hehe!" The fat man grinned, and I ignored him.

"I took a closer look at the murals on the two floors just now. The second floor we are on is the Dao of Heaven, with scenes of the twenty gods in the Dao of Heaven on the top; while the lower floor is the Dao of Humanity, mostly scenes of the lives of all living beings. I was thinking, if it is explained according to the reincarnation of the six realms, if there are six floors in this temple, then..." I thought about it but stopped, because I was afraid that I couldn't find anything to confirm my analysis.

"Then there should be four floors below?!" Xiang Ru said first.

"Yes! And I guess if there are really four floors below, the lama who built this temple thought about putting the ghost's corpse in the bottom hell way, so that it can never be reborn!"

As soon as I said this, everyone thought about it, and they seemed to think that what I said made sense, but I wanted to find the hole that entered the lower four floors earlier, because my legs were a little out of control.

If there is that hole, then it must not be on the top floor, it should be on the first floor, so I walked down.

"Wait! We'll look for it with you!" The fat man was afraid that something might happen to me, so he chased me from behind, and everyone followed.

As soon as I reached the first floor, I heard a click from behind. Looking back, I saw that the stairs were overwhelmed by everyone's back and forth, and finally a big hole was broken. Fatty and Deji ran at the front, so they were caught off guard together. go down.

"Fatty, are you and Deji okay?" I rushed over and asked, thinking that I just fell under the stairs, so there must be nothing wrong.

"We're all fine... Huh?" Fatty patted the dirt on his body with Deji from below, and just about to climb up, he shouted: "Come down and see what Fatty I found!"

I heard the sound and hurried down, there was a musty smell inside.

No wonder, this staircase is not hollowed out, there are walls on both sides, after a long time, some wood and other things have become moldy.

Fatty and Deji were squatting there. I walked over and saw a hole in the ground.

Lao Zhongtou and Xiang Ru also jumped down, and everyone squatted around and looked in.

"What is this hole for? It's not for lamas to store Chinese cabbage for the winter, right?" Fatty's words almost made me faint.

I lay on my stomach at the entrance of the cave, but carefully shone down with my headlamp.I saw that the bottom is so narrow that only one person can go down, there are no steps, and it is full of an indescribable smell.

Now it doesn’t matter whether the hole is dug or not, but whether this hole leads to the source of the corpses I mentioned is a matter of my life and death, so I decided to go down and have a look.

I took out the flying hook and fixed it at the entrance of the hole. I was the first to enter the hole along the rope, and everyone followed.The fat man was afraid that his body would block the acupuncture points, so he consciously ranked last.

The more I slid down, the more stuffy the air became. I suddenly felt that my feet had touched something soft, and I thought this should be the end.

But I think it’s not right. The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has less soil and more rocks, and the cave looks like it should be made of bricks and stones. How could some soft things come out for no reason?
When I illuminated it with a headlamp, I was shocked by the sight in front of me. I saw some headless corpses lying on the ground in disorder. After everyone came down, they were also surprised when they counted the corpses. There were as many as twelve!

These corpses were already covered with dark blue spots, exuding a rotten smell, all wearing red robes and rosary beads, they seemed to be lamas in this temple, but their heads were missing. Yeah, it's really creepy.

Everyone looked around and saw that it was an underground secret room made of bricks and stones. The surrounding walls were empty and there were some murals painted on it.The difference is that the paintings on this mural are all ferocious gods, holding various magic weapons, and fighting with other gods. I think this should be the way of Asura.

But what about these headless lama corpses?Did someone kill them here?What was that person planning again?Could it be that they came to dig holes like us?
The evil spirit on my body is getting heavier and heavier, I have to find the Corpse Lianzhu as soon as possible.

There is a tunnel on the ground in front. When we came down from that hole, there were no steps, but here it is, extending to the lower level. I think this is the so-called "going without returning"?

Buddhism is somewhat different from Tibetan Buddhism. In Buddhism, the six paths of reincarnation are divided into three good paths and three evil paths.Among them, the way of heaven, the way of humanity and the way of Asura belong to the three good ways, while the way of animals, the way of evil ghosts and the way of hell belong to the three evil ways.

However, in Tibetan Tantric Buddhism, the asura path is classified as the evil path, making the evil path into four and the good path into two.

There are no steps at the entrance of the cave we came down just now, which means that the builder of this temple is warning us that if we go down from the human path, we have already entered the four evil realms, and if we persist in our obsession, we will never return.

But how can I care so much?Even if there is no return, I still have to get the corpse beads, otherwise I will become a zombie and there will be no return.

Just when I was about to go down, I suddenly felt the great gods on the stone wall move.

I thought it was my eyes that were blurred, so I rubbed them vigorously, and saw that they really began to float out of the clouds and mist.

Everyone was also stunned. These translucent guys, like smoke, opened their mouths with long fangs and pricked up their cow-like ears, as if they were shouting, and waved their sharp knives, suddenly came to us from mid-air. Come on!

Seeing that the golden hammer in the hand of a great god with eyes like copper bells was about to hit Xiang Ru, but Xiang Ru deftly dodged to the side, and the great god slammed his head into the wall, and the huge head hit the wall in one go. The big pit, broken bricks and stones hit us all over.

The great god turned around and threw at the fat man again, the fat man lowered his head without saying a word and pulled out the bayonet and stabbed him in the chest, but his own hand holding the bayonet pierced through the body of the great god.

This made everyone even more surprised. They can hit us, but we can't hit them. Isn't this waiting for death?
Fatty and Deji swung their bayonets and stabbed at them, but it was still useless.Lao Zhong picked up his gun and aimed a shot at the head of a great god. The bullet passed through his head and hit the wall behind him.

Seeing these seemingly invisible guys surrounded us back to back, suddenly a big god came to me with a long knife in his hand, and suddenly felt an irresistible force that made me unable to move like a mountain, and my whole body was like An iron chain was tied, and I could only open my eyes to see, but it was difficult to move an inch, which was extremely uncomfortable.

At this critical moment, a thunderous shout of killing came from behind them, and in the dim light, the gods on the wall who had been fighting with them also rushed out and pointed at them with the magic weapons in their hands. Stabbing randomly, the whole secret room was in chaos in an instant, with swords and blood everywhere.

We took the opportunity to pass through their bodies, and ran into the tunnel in a panic, until we stepped into the next secret room, and everyone looked at each other and took a breath.

The walls of this secret room are full of animals of the weak and strong. A tiger swallows an antelope on a hill; All living beings under the wings.
