    ?Chapter Sixty-Eight: People from Gumo Country

    As soon as Ning Hanzhi finished speaking, the two of us were about to walk out of this tunnel, but at this moment, my peripheral vision flashed, and in the corner of the tunnel entrance, I saw a line that was neither deep nor shallow, only the front half of the tunnel.  shoe prints.

    "This shoe print looks familiar, I seem to have seen it somewhere" The moment I saw the shoe print, I hurriedly said to Ning Hanzhi.

    His face darkened slightly, he looked at the shoe print with a smirk, and said to me: "I also think it looks familiar, if I remember correctly, I have seen this shoe print once in the illusion, and it is also very familiar.  Only half a print."

    When Ning Hanzhi said this, my breathing suddenly tightened, and I realized that before I saw that woman in the illusion, I had seen this shoe print in front of the tunnel, no wonder I felt so familiar.

    "Did you see this shoe print before or after you saw that woman?" I took a deep breath and asked Ning Hanzhi nervously.

    He glanced at me lightly, and replied, "Before."

    "Me too" I replied to him, and just as I finished speaking, I asked anxiously again: "Tell me, is this shoe print related to that woman?"

    Ning Hanzhi didn't reply in a hurry, but turned his head slightly, and glanced at the bottomless tunnel behind him, his eyes were very empty, as if he was looking at another place through this tunnel.

    "Whether it has anything to do with that woman, I don't know, but I can be sure that there must be someone in this underground palace." The moment he looked away, he replied to me.

    After I heard it, I felt goosebumps rising, but the moment he took the first step forward, he added another sentence to me: "It's just that you can't know whether it's a living person or a dead person until you see it."

    "The soles of living people have patterns, and white soles are only worn by dead people. What if the person hiding in the underground palace is a thousand-year-old monster" I asked Ning Hanzhi in fear.

    He gave me a blank look, and asked me back: "It's all here, what else can I do, cold salad?"

    Talking to him, I didn¡¯t forget to slap me with three sentences, and I didn¡¯t bother to talk to him. I just turned my eyes to the front and found that there was a dusty building in front of me, surrounded by pillars of different sizes and lengths.  They are all engraved with patterns like the facial features of animals. On these patterns, colorful pigments are used as embellishments. At first glance, they look like totems of certain tribes in ancient times.

    Carving totems on the pillars is a habit of the northern Chinese people who believe in shamanism. However, shamanism worships the sky and the earth and worships nature. The totems carved on the pillars are still some weird human faces, and the facial features of animals are not included.  , the habit of carving on cylinders.

    It seems that the ancient Western Regions, as the fortress of exchanges between China and the West, not only integrated Chinese and Western cultures early on, but also kneaded religious beliefs together. Taking this shamanism totem and other things as a sum, they finally derived their own  Totem and Faith.

    Following the map of mountains and rivers in Ning Han's hands, we didn't trigger the mechanism of this palace, but the more we went down, the more strange I felt. This huge underground palace, although it is the Gumo Temple,  It got its name because it was located in the former Gumo country.

    Was it an outsider who built this underground palace, or did Gu Gumo build it with the power of a whole country when their national power was prosperous?

    Even Ning Hanzhi won't be able to give me any answers if we don't go to the end. We passed through no less than five temples along the way.  , an extremely weird path, we walked very smoothly along the way, so smooth that we walked more than half of the entire map, not only did we not trigger any mechanism, nor did we encounter any living people or corpses.

    It's as if, with this map, we can really get in and out as we like, and when we go out, we can easily get the stones in the underground palace, and find some traces left by my ancestors by the way.

    It's not the first time that Ning Hanzhi and I have been in and out of these places. The smoother the trip, the more tense our nerves will be. A little trouble can provoke us to draw our swords back to back, even if someone is behind our backs.  start.

    Seeing that we are about to step into the seventh hall of Gumo Shrine, not to mention the corpse, even the coffin is missing, Ning Hanzhi seems to be a little stunned, suddenly pulls me, stops  He got down and asked me in a low voice: "After you left that tunnel, did you hear footsteps again?"

    I shook my head and said no, as if the person who made the footsteps stopped abruptly in that tunnel and no longer followed us.

    "Then the sound of footsteps may just be the echo produced by some mechanisms in the tunnel to scare off intruders." After hearing this, Ning Hanzhi replied to me in surprise and joy.p; Then, aren¡¯t we the sheep that go into the mouth of the tiger and let others slaughter us?

    Just when I was stunned and a little overwhelmed, Yun Shen's voice sounded from my mind again: "The vines that make these three pairs of handcuffs are not products of this world at all. These dwarves live in the shrine.  Among them, it must be related to that stone and the tunnel that can lead to the two worlds. If it comes, it will be safe. Since they invited us to go, let's go and have a look."

    "But what if these handcuffs can really deal with you?" I asked Yun Shen a little worried.

    But he smiled, and said back: "I can see through at a glance, I can count the people who possess you with five fingers, he is just the leader of a small gang, he can do this, I have no entity  , if the people behind them are trying to deal with me, there are plenty of ways."

    After Yun Shen said so, no matter how reluctant I was, I had no choice but to handcuff these two handcuffs on my wrists.

    But at the moment when the handcuffs were placed on my wrists, an indescribable feeling suddenly spread all over my body, as if my connection with Yun Shen was only cut off by a gate in an instant.

    "Yunshen Yunshen, are you still there?" I hurriedly asked in my heart.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
