Chapter 1722 Temple on Banana Hill
As night fell, a huge fly flapped its wings and flew to the west. Ning Tao and Bi Mingzhu sat on the back of the fly, and the bright moonlight became a natural curtain, staged a beautiful picture of flies flying to the moon.
Earl's flying altitude is about 3,000 meters, which is stronger than Ning Tao's blue cloud, and the speed is also faster.
It's just that the two great gods are flying with flies, and I always feel a little strange in my heart.
Ling'er originally wanted to follow, if Ning Tao didn't let her follow. The place we are going to this time is Shenghua Shield City. Although it is not the capital of the ape-man, it can be regarded as a border city, where powerful people are indispensable. Her spiritual veins have just awakened, she doesn't have enough experience, and her combat effectiveness is still a bit weak.
"Boss, there is Banana Hill in front of you, and Shenghua Shield City is on that Banana Hill." Earl said.
"Banana Mountain, why did you choose such a name?" Ning Tao asked casually, feeling that the name was a bit strange.
Earl answered the boss's question honestly: "Because apes love bananas."
Ning Tao: "..."
He couldn't help but glance at Bi Mingzhu beside him.
Bi Mingzhu simply gave him a supercilious look.
Why did he look at Bi Mingzhu with that kind of look at this time, and why did Bi Mingzhu roll her eyes back? I am afraid that only the two of the 10 groups know about this.
"Earl, how much do you know about the beliefs of the ape-man and Kun people?" Ning Tao changed the subject.
"Apes all believe in gods, and my understanding is the gods who rule the sky. As for us Kun people, we have a wide range of beliefs, such as money, food, and land, haha!" Earl laughed.
That is, no faith.
But this is also normal, what beliefs do insects have?
Flying forward for a certain distance, a big mountain appeared in front. The mountain soared into the clouds, with a height of almost 10,000 meters according to visual inspection, it was incomparably majestic and precipitous.
This mountain does not look like a banana, but it is called Banana Mountain.
Shenghua Shield City is on Banana Mountain, extending from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside. Under the night, the lights in the city are dim, and the buildings are row upon row, mostly stone buildings, which looks a bit like an ancient European city in the Middle Ages.
A mist hung over the hillside,
White snow can be seen faintly on the top of the mountain. There is also a building on the top of the mountain, with minarets and walls, resembling a castle. There are many lights on in that building, and it is particularly eye-catching in the white snow.
"Ear, what is the building on the top of the mountain?" Ning Tao asked.
Earle said, "That's the Temple of Heaven."
"Let's go and have a look." Ning Tao said.
"The temple is heavily guarded. The sound of my wings can be heard thousands of meters away. The guards of the temple will shoot me." Earl said nervously.
Ning Tao said: "Then you put us down and we go up by ourselves."
"That's no problem. There's a small road at the back of the temple, which can avoid some guards. I'll send the boss and the boss's wife there." Earl followed and changed direction, bypassing the front of Banana Mountain and flying from a mountain peak on the side. In the past, and then came to the back of Banana Hill.
The back of Banana Mountain is extremely steep, with steep cliffs above halfway up the mountain, and very few trees. Occasionally there are a few trees, which also grow on the cliffs.
Earl landed on a cliff halfway up the mountain. On one side of the cliff was an abyss, and on the other side was a steep hillside. There was a path winding upwards on the hillside.
"Boss, lady boss, this is what I call the secret path. If you climb up from here, you will be able to climb to the back door of the Temple of Heaven." Earl said: "Few people know this path, so go through this path. , almost never encounter the ape guards."
"I see, you are waiting for us here." Ning Tao said.
"Okay." Earl replied.
Bi Mingzhu threw a natural energy crystal to Earl, and then said: "If you run away, you will lose the chance to make a lot of money. Follow my husband, and you will be sure to prosper."
"Yes, yes, I will never run away, and I'm not stupid." Earl said, although there was no expression on its face, but its voice was flattering.
Indeed, if you guard a crystal making machine and don't serve it, who else should you serve?
Ning Tao put his arms around Bi Mingzhu's waist, jumped up, and disappeared into the vast night with a whiz.
Earl has a big head, and his two big hemispherical eyes almost stare into a circle.
heroes!
This is a real hero!
When Ning Tao landed again, he was already at a height of a thousand meters. His feet stepped on the cliff, and he and Bi Mingzhu flew towards the top of the mountain like cannonballs again.
After several ups and downs, the top of the mountain was reached.
The air on the top of the 10,000-meter-high mountain is thin, and the cold wind howls. Although there are no snowflakes flying in the sky, there is a thick layer of snow on the ground. The temple is located on a flat land in the middle of the mountain top, covering an area of tens of acres, and is extremely majestic.
There are no guards patrolling outside the temple, but there are quite a few searchlights installed on the outer wall of the temple, and there are ape-man guards controlling the searchlights, and from time to time, the beams of the searchlights are illuminated on the snow.
Those searchlights made Ning Tao a little surprised and surprised. When he was flying in mid-air, he thought that the lights in the temple on the top of the mountain were lanterns shining, but he didn't expect to be searchlights.
But in an instant he was relieved.
The ape-man is taking the technological route. The ape-man in this world can even build machine guns and cannons. It is not surprising that there are searchlights.
"Old Song, there are so many guards in the temple, it's hard for us to go in without being noticed, why don't we kill all these ape-men, and prevent them from disturbing us." Bi Mingzhu said.
Ning Tao said: "No, don't the battle armors on us have the function of invisibility? Just activate the function of invisibility, and there is no need to kill people. If it doesn't work, we can also use invisibility spells. We are gods after all."
"Okay then, I'll listen to you, but you have to listen to me later, sweat me out." Bi Mingzhu said.
Ning Tao smiled and said, "It's so cold here, why am I sweating all over?"
Bi Mingzhu lowered her voice: "It's okay for me to help you with this matter. I promised to give that fly two Heavenly Energy Crystals a month, but now I only give one. You won't make me break my promise, will you?"
Ning Tao: "..."
Just say you want it, is it hard?
The invisibility function on the two sets of soft armor was activated, and the faces of the two were also covered with a faint energy shield. Through the energy shield, Ning Tao can see a transparent figure, and Bi Mingzhu sees Ning Tao as just a transparent figure.
"Let's go, let's go in and have a look." Ning Tao said.
Bi Mingzhu followed Ning Tao to the back door of the temple.
The back door of the temple was closed tightly. The door was more than ten meters high, and the stone bricks on both sides of the door were also huge, weighing at least one ton. The city walls built piece by piece are particularly majestic, and people need to look up to see the battlements on the city wall.
A bright beam of light fell on Ning Tao and Bi Mingzhu, and when the beam of the searchlight shone on them, Ning Tao and Bi Mingzhu stopped at the same time.
Although the invisibility function on the soft stand was activated, it was the first time to use it after all, and I don't know if the ape-man has countermeasures, so I don't know what to do.
The beam of light swept slowly, and soon moved to another place.
The stealth function of the soft armor is no problem.
"It seems that we can also use this soft armor to enter Shenghua Shield City and rescue the patriarch." Ning Tao said.
"The team leader betrayed his tribe, so why save him? Even if we rescue him, he won't be able to return to the tribe." Bi Mingzhu said.
"You're right, then we don't have to worry about him. He chose to betray his people, so he should bear the consequences." Ning Tao actually said it casually, and his motivation to save people was faint.
"I'm curious about what kind of god is enshrined in the temple today." Bi Mingzhu said.
Ning Tao was also very curious.
For some reason, he thought of the statue he saw in the Holy Mother of the Heavenly Dao Base. That god is like the statue of Lingshan, but it is very similar to himself.
In the time of these two sentences, the two came to the back door of the temple.
Ning Tao didn't intend to break the door, he hugged Bi Mingzhu's waist again, and then stepped on the ground lightly, he and Bi Mingzhu jumped tens of meters high and came to the city wall.
An ape-man was the first to hear the wind, and turned to look, but saw nothing.
With Bi Mingzhu in his arms, Ning Tao took one step in the void, and then took two or three steps, and came directly to the backyard behind the city wall. When his feet landed on the ground, there was no sound from his feet.
This is not some hero's light work, this is the magic of God.
The two entered the temple from the backyard.
In front of him was a corridor. On both sides of the corridor were high stone walls, which were also made of huge stone bricks weighing at least one ton. There is a lamp at intervals on the wall. Although the lamp is an electric lamp, its style is very retro, like an ancient palace lamp.
There are also paintings on those palace lanterns, which are bananas.
There are also some murals on the walls.
Ning Tao stopped in front of a mural, and took a closer look at the content of the painting.
That painting depicts an old ape-man with white hair and a mustache under his two upturned nostrils. He looks a bit like an artist.
Under the portrait is written a comment in Chinese characters: Thomas was a famous writer from 506 to 586. Author of "The History of Suffering of Apes", "The Cruelty of Capital", "The Brazier in Winter", "Torture of the Soul", "Salted Fish Also Have Ideals", etc.
There was a wry smile on the corner of Ning Tao's mouth, feeling that he was not walking in the corridor of a temple, but returned to Shancheng Medical University. In his alma mater, there are always some portraits of great figures hanging on the walls, and there are always brief biographies of those great figures under those portraits. The school uses those portraits to inspire students to study hard.
So, what is the purpose of hanging these portraits in the ape-man temple?
Going forward, more portraits appeared on the walls on both sides of the corridor. Some are physicists, some are chemists, some are astronomers, and some are mathematicians. The introductions under the portraits are better than one.
Ning Tao didn't bother to look at it, and walked out of the corridor faster.
At the end of the corridor was a pair of tall and large double doors. The door was open, and one could see the interior of the temple hall at a glance.
