Chapter 22 The Path of Hungry Ghosts

The monks continued to chant for another half an hour before they calmed down when the old monk stopped.

The old monk slowly stood up and walked out of the tower.

When the monks slowly left, Han Yu turned over and jumped in. Only then could he see clearly that there were statues of gods of different sizes on the ground floor.

"How strange! Why don't the statues worshipped in the temple look like Buddha?"

Han Yu murmured in his heart.

The statues look ferocious and fierce, some even have two arms and four eyes, and some have hideous faces, without any trace of mercy.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. Han Yu hid carefully. A monk in a gray robe came in. He saw the monk gently pressed on a statue with two heads and four arms. A stone door slowly opened from the ground, revealing a flight of stairs inside.

Then he watched the monk slowly walk down the stairs, and Han Yu followed him out of curiosity.

There was nothing special under the stairs, just a long corridor. Han Yu walked quietly, turned left at the end, and then saw four dungeons.

After the monk entered one of the rooms, no one knew what he was doing. Not long after, he was seen coming out with a hunched back, dragging a skeleton. It wasn't quite right to call it a skeleton.

Because the bones were covered with a layer of skin, it looked more like a mummy. There was a terrified expression on the mummy's face, and its mouth was not closed until death.

It seemed that he had been dead for only a short time.

"How can it still be so heavy when it looks so dead?"

The monk was sweating profusely and cursed.

"Need a helping hand?"

A voice sounded behind him. The monk looked surprised. He stood up and turned around to see a huge fist coming towards him.

bump!
With just one punch, he was thrown into a cell and his life or death was unknown.

"Is he a layman?"

A hurried voice came from the cell next to him.

Han Yu walked forward and saw a big square-faced man with thick eyebrows and big eyes in the fourth cell. It was obvious that he was surprised by Han Yu's arrival.

The man looked Han Yu up and down, and asked in surprise, "Who are you?"

When Han Yu heard the word "vulgar people" from the man's mouth, he knew that Yixian and his group would not be able to escape. Why are these people so unlucky? Every time they meet, they are either caught or trapped.

Han Yu found it funny, raised the token in his hand and said, "The one who saved you."

The man looked at the token, and suddenly realized something. He smiled bitterly and said, "I sent the signal to ask for help from another companion, but I didn't expect it to be a newcomer recruited by Yixian."

After Han Yu broke open the cell door with one punch, he saw that the man didn't move.

"Can you lend a hand? I've been cursed. All my energy and movements are trapped. I can't move for a while."

The man said with an embarrassed look on his face.

Han Yu grabbed the man and carried him on his back, then strode out.

"I am the cousin of the Ziqiang Sect!"

It is very embarrassing for a man to give his name in this situation.

Han Yu thought about it and also left a nickname, "I am the pharmacist."

After leaving the cell, a sinister laugh was heard, and my cousin's face suddenly changed, "Are you sure you can get out?"

"I'm afraid it's hard to leave!"

Han Yu paused, suddenly sighed and said.

Because an old monk was standing quietly in the corridor, looking up and looking here quietly.

My cousin was breathing rapidly and kept urging me, "Don't fight. This old bald donkey is a bit weird. He looks like a Buddha but not a Buddha. His methods are very sinister. Run to the passage behind."

"Oh! This person has such a strong aura of death!" Xiao Liuli, who had been silent in his mind for a long time, suddenly spoke.

"You have to be careful! This monk's cultivation is not high, but he seems unusual." Xiao Liuli warned.

Han Yu's heart was startled. He looked up and saw that the old monk Gu Bobujing's face suddenly broke into a strange smile.

A feeling of hair standing on end rose from my heart.

"The evil guest came to the house and peeped in for a long time. It turns out he wants to save people. Why don't we stay together?"

After the old monk finished speaking, he put his hands together and suddenly, Buddhist chants became audible.

"Don't listen. This is how my true energy was suppressed. Run away first."

My cousin yelled anxiously. Han Yu looked weird? Suppressing his true energy?
Fortunately, I didn't have the cultivation level for him to suppress me. After I calmed down a little, I pushed hard with my feet and shot out like an arrow.

The old monk was a little surprised when he found out that the Sanskrit chanting was useless, but he immediately put his hands together and started to recite the scriptures again.

A strange sound came from the void. Han Yu looked back and was startled.

A picture of hell gradually emerged in the void, with piles of white bones constantly struggling to stand up in the picture, as if trying to crawl out.

"This old monk holds the realm of hungry ghosts. This is a supernatural power. Don't look at him, don't look back."

My cousin's face changed, and although he hadn't turned around yet, he seemed to have guessed what was happening behind him and quickly gave a warning.

Han Yu quickly closed his eyes and continued running along the corridor.

“Jump on it!”

His cousin urged him in his ear, and Han Yu ran all the way to the end. There was no road ahead, but he could see some light when he looked up.

The end is actually underground.

"Hurry!"

My cousin urged.

Han Yu bent his knees and jumped with him on his back, relying on his physical strength to jump up.

The environment above suddenly became clear. As soon as he stepped on the ground, Han Yu was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but he was slightly stunned.

I originally thought that the well led directly to the outside, but unexpectedly, the environment I was in was surrounded by smoothly polished stone walls. There was nothing around except a stone bed, and the dome was made of black bricks.

"This is a tomb. Don't stop and keep running."

Unexpectedly, my cousin suddenly urged me.

Han Yu is now full of questions. One moment he was caught in the temple, and the next moment he escaped to the tomb.

"I'll explain when it's safe."

My cousin continued to urge.

At this moment, the sound of insects was heard, and Han Yu soon broke out in a cold sweat.

A group of red unknown insects quickly swarmed into the room.

"This thing is highly poisonous, you can't get bitten by it. Turn right when you go out, there is a high platform that insects can't get up to." My cousin shouted with a pale face.

The first batch of insects had already swarmed to the soles of his feet. Han Yu didn't dare to gamble whether his body could withstand the poison, so he jumped quickly. As soon as he landed, there was green juice all over the ground under his feet, but he didn't dare to stop and ran out.

The high platform that my cousin mentioned was actually a trapezoidal stone platform that was seven feet wide. There was a one-foot wide artificial river surrounding the stone platform. After Han Yu jumped over it, the red insects that were chasing him could only stay on the shore and keep screaming.

After putting his cousin down, Han Yu collapsed from exhaustion, panting and saying, "What the hell is going on?"

My cousin smiled bitterly and said, "It's a long story."

"I stole a diagram of a tomb mechanism designed for someone many years ago from an elder in my family, and I want to come in and learn a little bit..."

Han Yu looked extremely strange at his cousin's first sentence. He had only heard of people breaking into tombs to steal, so the idea of ​​learning was quite novel.

According to my cousin's narration, there was a Buddhist elder in the monastic world many years ago. Before he passed away, he found the elders in my cousin's family and asked them to help design a tomb. Many years later, my cousin sneaked in with the drawings.

As a result, he was trapped in the tomb because of his poor skills. Later, he found a dry well in a tomb chamber. What was even more unexpected was that the well was empty.

So my cousin went down the well with a trying attitude, and was later caught.

My cousin's face was grim. "The well must have been dug from outside after our senior passed away and was buried. The only people who could have dug there accurately, besides someone from our family, must have been our senior's disciples."

"Why did the old monk arrest you?"

Han Yu asked curiously.

"Because I saw him practicing. That day I went down the well and all the way to the dungeon, and I saw him practicing the supernatural power of the hungry ghost realm. He sucked five people into mummies."

"Based on the old monk's age, I think he must be a disciple of that great master. He built a temple next to his tomb in order to secretly dig the tomb passage and steal the cultivation methods of the hungry ghost realm."

Han Yu stared at the passage in the direction of the wellhead for a long time, but he was a little worried, "Will that old monk suddenly jump out?"

My cousin shook his head. "The hungry ghost realm is supposed to nourish supernatural powers with one's own essence and blood. That old bald donkey has gone astray and has fallen into the devil's way. This is the place where the great monks passed away. He must have known that there are the relics of the great monks here after he came here once. After cultivating the hungry ghost realm, he will definitely not dare to come here again."

Han Yu sighed, "But we don't dare go down anymore."

unless……

Their eyes flashed, and they said in unison, "Let's take the relic down!"
