472. Stone carving
I sighed and said: "Often the way of the emperor is not something we ordinary people can understand. Let alone harming his own brother, how many kings in history have killed all their brothers before ascending the throne?
It’s normal to not care about brotherhood at all!”
As we spoke, we stepped up the steps and tried to push open the door of the hall. As soon as we stretched out our hands, Meihui quickly stopped me.
"There seems to be someone inside!"
The main hall of the Black Dragon Temple is a pure building from the early Qing Dynasty. The windows are all made of paper, and a hole can be seen if you poke it lightly. The white fog outside is still thick, but there is a slight white light, which is better than being invisible.
Qiang. I pierced the window paper and looked in with one eye closed. Sure enough, this girl guessed it right.
I saw a man kneeling under the incense table, with his back to the door. Judging from the tall and burly figure of this man, wearing silver armor and carrying a sword on his waist, he turned out to be a heroic Manchu general. But we were outside the hall.
It's impossible that he couldn't hear us after we've been chatting for so long. Why is he still kneeling there without making any movement? It seems that he must be the guard general guarding the Black Dragon Temple. Did he already know about our intrusion?
Needless to say, the Black Dragon Temple is either dedicated to Nurhachi or the Black Dragon King. I glanced up from the corner of my eye and was shocked. The main hall of the temple is dedicated to neither Emperor Taizu nor the legendary Black Dragon King.
It was a coffin. The coffin was wrapped with wax around it. The coffin was made of thick wood. The lid of the coffin was inlaid with a black dragon. The black dragon spit out pearls from its mouth.
"What kind of fun is this? Isn't it the Black Dragon Temple? Is it the corpse of the Black Dragon? The coffin is not big enough? Or it is the Black Dragon King who was cremated. What is this man doing? Praying for blessings?" Meihui was also watching next to me.
The scene in the main hall.
We really didn't have the guts to break in before we confirmed the man's identity. We wanted to check the form first. Because now we don't know where we are. Is this still the Ilhuri Mountain, or does it belong to Ilhuri Mountain?
Another dimension in Huli Mountain. In any case, this guy kneeling in front of the coffin is definitely not someone to be trifled with, so it is best to stay away from him.
Suddenly, the door creaked open, and I was frightened. I looked at Meihui with my mouth open, thinking that she was holding back, but I didn't expect that she had the same expression as mine, with an unbelievable look in her eyes. I stiffened.
Scalp pretended to be calm and walked over.
"Man, may I ask where this is? We are passing by and want to ask for a bowl of water."
The man knelt there and ignored me.
"Brother, are you alive?" I asked again.
He still knelt in front of the coffin without saying a word.
"Brother, stop talking nonsense to him!" Meihui shouted angrily, and without waiting for my instructions, she drew out her hidden knife and rushed forward. In the blink of an eye, her cold blade was already on the man's neck.
The man realized that even if he stood up for a moment, his aorta would definitely be bleeding.
"Auntie, don't move, don't hurt anyone!"
"Brother, come here quickly, something is wrong, this... this is not a living person..."
She just put her hand on the man's shoulder and took it off again, as if even a small knife could not cut through his armor. I frowned, this is impossible, don't tell me that it is a corpse kneeling here all the time.
