One Pillow Huaxu

Wu Xie didn't stay long, he pressed the question back to the bottom of his heart, and quickly turned around and continued walking forward.The yellow mud channel twists and turns in the mountain, all the way down the darkness, and I don't know where the end is.

After turning a few more turns, a faint light suddenly appeared in the darkness in the distance.Walking forward in the direction of the light, the height of the passage gradually increased, and in the end, the two of them no longer needed to walk forward with their waists bent, and could directly stand upright.

At the end of the passage is a space of about tens of square meters, which is still roughly carved out of the rock, like an ant nest.Here a kind of upside-down canopy is presented, now through a narrow passage to a larger room.

The two can already rely on the wind lamp and the original light source here to see the surrounding scene clearly, but this faint light does not come from the lighting objects in between.

The light is shining from the ground in the middle.

Wu Xie looked towards the middle of the room, where there was faint light shining upwards, as if a huge luminous panel was inlaid on the floor in the middle.

Walking into this room, he felt that the surrounding temperature dropped a lot.It was night at this time, and the mountainous area of ​​Tibet was already low temperature, and it was normal for the temperature to drop as we walked all the way underground.It's just that the temperature in this room has dropped significantly, and frost is faintly forming on the surrounding stone walls.

Wu Xie was wrapped in two outer robes, so she couldn't help but pull up the outer one at this time.He looked up and found that corresponding to the light, there was a huge thing hanging on the ceiling in the middle.

It was a stone sculpture three to four meters high, hanging upside down from the ceiling.The whole body of the statue is pitch black, and the shape of bird feathers is carved out of its body in great detail. It grasps the rock with two claws, spreads its wings, and hovers around the surroundings with its extremely long tail.

This statue has a bird body, but a human head.The man's face was calm and peaceful, with a crown on his head, hair hanging down his ears, and two hands growing between the wings, holding a musical instrument shaped like a pan flute.

Wu Xie said softly, "Kalampinka."

Kalavinka is a kind of Buddhist creature, which comes from the snow-capped mountains. It is also called "Korapinka Bird", and it is also translated as "Wonderful Sound Bird". It is described in "Zhengfa Chanting Sutra" as "beautiful voice, able to chant Buddhist scriptures".It is said that its clear and melodious sound is beyond the reach of heaven, man, kinnara and all birds.

Wu Xie walked closer as he spoke, his expression was calm and no surprise, because he had seen the same stone sculpture before.The statue was located in the very center of the village, and he noticed it at first sight when he first came here.After a closer look, it is not surprising to find that it is the Kalingpinga bird, because although this creature has the same human head and bird body, its meaning is completely different from the human-faced bird in Yunding Tiangong.

This is a kind of sacred bird of Buddhism. According to the "Amitabha Sutra", this bird and the common life bird also live in the pure land of bliss.

Unexpectedly, there is a Kalavinka hanging upside down underground that is exactly the same as the one on the ground.Thinking of this, Wu Xie roughly calculated their positions at this time, and found that they were probably right under the statue in the center of the village.

At this time, Zhang Qiling had already walked near the light source in the center, bowing his head and showing a dignified expression.Seeing him stop, Wu Xie also stepped forward a few steps. He didn't understand why the other party looked like this until he saw the thing clearly.

Because before this, this piece of light appeared extremely abruptly, and its location was very strange.Wu Xie speculated that there might be a piece of jade inlaid on the floor, or some other luminous body.At least it might be an LCD TV to pass the time for Kalavinka overhead.

But neither.The light source is not in the room they are in, but in the underground, or the next floor.

I saw a layer of ice on the ground.

The area of ​​the ice layer is not large, about three to four square meters, about the size of a desk. I don't know if it was inlaid artificially, or it was sandwiched in the rock layer and exposed by breaking it open.The ice doesn't look very thick, but is very transparent. It is like a piece of glass embedded in the middle of the rough rocky ground. It is not until you touch it with your hand that you will find that it is an ice layer.

It is through this ice layer that the light shines from below.Wu Xie lay down, lowered her center of gravity and brought her face closer, and saw that the lower floor was also a room, and this piece of ice seemed to have opened a skylight on the ceiling of the room below.The lower floor was a circle larger than this one, and it was brightly lit, allowing him to clearly see the things in the middle

It was a huge black coffin.

The coffin is made of wood, but the material is much better than those on the cave wall. It looks roughly like ebony wood, the fabric is smooth and the wood grain is fine, and the surface is painted with complicated patterns.The coffin was as wide as three people, and like the other side of the hole, the lid was not closed, revealing the inside of the coffin head.

It was empty inside, and there was nothing.

"It's interesting." Wu Xie said.He let out a breath of white air, straightened his body from above the ice layer, and looked at the statue above his head again.Now that the distance is getting closer, it is clear that the fine lines carved on the statue's body are not all feathers.

It is full of long and narrow square holes that are one finger wide. These square grooves are all over the statue, as if something poked it into a sieve.Zhang Qiling scanned the surroundings, kicked off the wall with a run-up, and jumped to the center of the statue.He grabbed the tail of the statue, raised his waist and hooked his feet up, and fixed himself there in the air.

Zhang Qiling groped the statue calmly for a moment, and said, "Each square slot corresponds to a mechanism."

He looked up at the ceiling, only to see countless rattan-like things extending from under the bird's claws.These things are very similar to what they saw in the sea of ​​trees, like dense spider webs crawling all over the top of the cave wall, extending into the unknown darkness.

"Pirate Barrel." Wu Xie raised his head and spoke suddenly.

He met Zhang Qiling's downward gaze with his hands in his hands, and continued: "Plastic toys, put a pirate doll in the middle of the beer barrel, and a group of people take turns inserting knives into the hole on the barrel. If you win a prize, the pirate will pop out. The back hole will change randomly."

He looked at the statue with great interest: "This one is dated, large, and a slot corresponds to a bunker. Information is transmitted by fireworks, and the switch is here."

While speaking, he untied the dagger from his leg and threw it upwards.Zhang Qiling caught it firmly in the air, and immediately guessed Wu Xie's thoughts, frowned and said: "The holes are random and changing."

"If you want to go to the next floor, the switch is also there." Wu Xie said lightly, he walked back to the ice layer in the middle, squatted down, and stared fixedly at the coffin below.

It seemed strange to him that the lid of the coffin was open.The strange feeling comes not from the fact that the coffin is open, but from the way the lid opens.The fact that the coffin was not closed may be due to years of erosion and damage, and the Tu Fuzi opened it violently, or even lifted the corpse.

But the way and angle of opening the coffin lid has a feeling of artificial and precise calculation.Wu Xie quickly found an adjective, which was deliberate.

After a while, he suddenly discovered something and walked straight onto the ice layer.

Seeing that he stepped onto the transparent layer of ice without the slightest hesitation, Zhang Qiling frowned again as if he was suspended in the air, and immediately turned over and jumped off the statue.

"It's okay." Wu Xie didn't look back, raised his hand to stop Zhang Qiling, then lay down all over, and put his face on it again.

After watching for a while, he waved to Zhang Qiling again: "Come here."

Zhang Qiling walked up cautiously, seeing that the ice layer was enough to support the weight of the two, he squatted down next to Wu Xie.Wu Xie gave him a hand and motioned him to get down like himself.

Zhang Qiling did as he said, and then heard Wu Xie next to him say: "This kind of ice is very special and has a long history. Under the current temperature environment, it will basically not melt."

"But here." He pointed to where the two of them were right now, "The ice here is lower than the level of the entire ice."

The actual height of the room on the lower floor is not too high. From the current suspended position, the coffin can be seen very clearly.This angle of view is just right at the head of the coffin, which is where the coffin lid opens.

"What does this mean?" Wu Xie looked at the coffin firmly, there was no one there, but if someone lay in it, their head would just be exposed.

"It means that someone, like us now, has been lying in this position for a very long time, and from this angle, observe the face of the person lying in the coffin below."
