Chapter 16
Chapter 16 Like a god in the dust
In addition to the vajra, several people found damaged incense burners, rulers, copper bells, and fish drums.
Among them, the female classmate who was sympathized by Ye Fan and looked haggard at the class reunion found a special object. It was a complete string of rosary beads, only six of them, gleaming and dripping, pale gold, as translucent as crystal, each the size of a longan.
"Could it be made of relics?" said the person next to him in surprise.
These six beads are all pale gold crystals, very like magnificent gems, which are easily reminiscent of the relics left by the ancient Buddha after his death.
This string of rosary beads is very unusual. It was discovered by the female classmate from the top of the stone Buddha by accident. The six beads are threaded together by a thin transparent thread, each with a vaguely human figure in different poses.
This is the third intact utensil after Ye Fan's copper lamp and Zhou Yi's bowl. Of course, the copper lamp is the most eye-catching. After all, this is the only ancient lamp that is not contaminated with dust. Anyone can see the extraordinary.
There are several hot rays of light in the ancient temple aiming at the copper lamp from time to time. Although Ye Fan sensed it, he did not say anything. He faced all this very calmly.
The Buddhist hall of Daleiyin Temple has been searched, and there are no other utensils, so everyone withdrew.
Pang Bo was the most depressed. More than a dozen people have found the ancient relics. He was the first person to enter the temple, but he still found nothing and found nothing.
Standing in front of the temple and looking at the ancient temple again, Pang Bo's eyes suddenly lit up. He strode back and moved a few large stones to cushion his feet. He took the bronze plaque engraved with "Da Leiyin Temple" on it. After coming down, many people present were stunned.
Then everyone suddenly realized that this bronze plaque must be extraordinary. It has been baptized by wind and frost, and has been tempered by time. There is no dust left on it, and it is very clean. You must know that among all the utensils in the ancient temple, only the ancient bronze lamp is spotless, and the same is true for the bronze plaque, which is obviously extraordinary.
"It's really heavy..." Pang Bo walked back dragging the bronze plaque. He had just left the temple when the entire ancient temple shook. The stone Buddha inside suddenly cracked and made a "click, click" sound.
Then, the Buddhist six-character mantra sounded: "Om, Ma, Na, Pa, Mi, Hum..."
The grand sound of the Buddha reverberated through the sky, shaking the sky, and the six harmony of heaven and earth was shaking!
The benevolent, solemn, sublime, and mysterious Zen sounds are incomparably vast, wash away the dirt, wash away the mundane, and the surrounding of the ancient temple is bathed in a sacred and peaceful light.
This time it was definitely not an illusion. Not only Ye Fan and Pang Bo heard it, but everyone else was astonished and speechless.
At the same time, all the utensils found in the Buddhist temple, whether intact or damaged, all glowed softly and shone brightly, which shocked everyone.
However, with a loud bang in the end, the stone Buddha in the ancient temple shattered and turned into fly ash, and then the Daleiyin Temple also turned into powder in a breeze.
"puff"
At the same time, the ancient Bodhi tree that accompanied it also collapsed. There was no sawdust, no dead branches, and some were just flying ashes all over the sky.
Next, the brilliance of the Buddhist utensils in the hands of everyone was restrained, all dimmed, and returned to ordinary again.
Everyone was stunned. I don't know why this happened. Could it be that the Buddhist utensils in the temple were taken away and the bronze plaques were taken away?
There was only a piece of fly ash left in the ancient temple, and nothing was left, Ye Fan stared at it for a while, and said, "Take all kinds of Buddhist utensils, take away the plaques of the ancient temple, and let the already abandoned Daleiyin Temple. Lost the meaning of existence, maybe that's why it disperses with the wind."
Zhou Yi was usually gentle and elegant, but at this moment, he was very excited, with a strange light in his eyes, and said: "I am more determined now, there are really gods in this world, maybe we can move forward along the footprints left by them. It may be a great opportunity to say.”
Gods, Buddhas, immortality... These absurd legends are being brought up now, and no one will find it too absurd. These facts indicate that many common senses can be overturned, and God is not absolutely non-existent.
"Follow the footsteps left by the gods... It's easy to say, but I don't see hope." Pang Bo gave Zhou Yi a sidelong glance and said, "The most important thing is to find a way to survive right now, there is no village in this desert. There is no store, no water, no food, and in another seven or eight hours, the situation will probably become extremely bad.”
"There are various indications that this planet is mostly Mars, and we all know that there is no environment for survival on Mars." Li Xiaoman is beautiful and moving. After a series of events, she became more and more calm, and continued: "If If there really is a god, then maybe that can explain it all, it's just a tiny piece of pure land on Mars."
As soon as her words fell, there was a sudden rumbling sound from the reddish-brown earth, and the empty earth shook, as if thousands of troops and horses were galloping, and it seemed like there was a raging sea.
"Sandstorm... a super storm on Mars!" Cade next to Li Xiaoman's expression changed greatly, and he shouted in unfluent Chinese.
Mars is shrouded in the wild sand for a quarter of each year. The large typhoons on Earth are more than 60 meters per second, while the storms on Mars are as high as 180 meters per second. Super storms can sweep across the sky. the entire planet.
Don't say it's human, even heavy tanks will be rolled into the sky!
In just an instant, all the stars and moons in the sky disappeared, the endless reddish-brown dust completely covered the sky, and a big storm that swept the entire Mars started.
"No, we don't have a storm here..."
Just now, many people were terrified, thinking that the disaster of extinction was coming, but at this moment, everyone found that the storm was raging in the distance, but the wind was calm in the near future.
Taking the five-color altar and the Daleiyin Temple as the axis, a hazy dome with a diameter of more than 1,000 meters is formed, covering the sky above this area and isolating it from the outside world.
What Li Xiaoman said came true. It really is a small pure land. There is a supernatural force blocking the storm, which indirectly proves that the gods may exist, and this may be the shelter of the gods.
"No, that hazy mask is fading and is about to disappear!" A female student who looked up at the sky turned white.
The dim mask on the sky is gradually melting away, and I am afraid that it will disappear completely in a short time. After seeing this scene, everyone's discoloration, death is so close, no one can calm down.
"What to do, are we...really going to die here?" Some people's words were trembling.
"I don't want to die..." some female classmates cried out.
"If the mask disappears, we will be crushed by the super storm!" Even the male classmates are terrified. The only pure land on Mars will no longer exist, and there will be no room for survival.
"Boom..."
The storm roared like muffled thunder, and the whole earth seemed to be shaking. The sky and the earth were covered in mist, and there was wild sand everywhere, and the fear of everyone was spreading.
Ye Fan still had clear eyes, looked at the overwhelming sandstorm, and said calmly, "There may be only one way out now."
"Can we escape? Tell me what you can do!"
"This pure land will cease to exist, where else can we live?!"
At the juncture of life and death, everyone was extremely anxious, and many people were confused.
"Follow the path the gods walked, and leave this unlivable environment," Ye Fan said.
Suddenly, some people understood Ye Fan's thoughts, but many people were still puzzled.
"Yes, this may be the only way to survive." Zhou Yi nodded in agreement.
According to Ye Fan's conjecture, in the distant past, there were gods who opened up the ancient road of the starry sky, and they could come to Yinghuo from the earth, but this may not be the ultimate destination.
There is also a five-color altar on Mars, which is likely to lead to a more distant starry sky. This is the road that the gods once traveled. Now they will be forced into a desperate situation. They can only continue along this ancient road and leave Mars. There is hope for survival.
At this time, everyone understood, and quickly rushed to the five-color altar.
Although the distance is only one thousand meters, everyone feels as far away as the ocean. This distance is related to their life and death. If the mask on the sky is broken before reaching the five-color altar, everyone will die. undoubtedly.
The vast ruins of the Heavenly Palace are covered with rubble. This is a difficult journey. Because of the speed of walking, some people slap their feet here, but they dare not stop for a while. They endure the pain and move forward quickly, unwilling to fall behind.
Even if the five-color altar is safely reached, it is still unknown whether the ancient road of the starry sky can be opened. This is a huge shadow shrouded in the hearts of everyone. You must know that everything is passive when you are in Mount Tai. But there is no choice at the moment, there is their only life-saving straw, and now they can only get there first and then find a way.
"Ah..." When a female classmate was running in the ruins, she suddenly let out a scream, and fell into the dust with a "coo dong", never moving again.
There was a look of horror on her face, and there was a blood hole as thick as a thumb on her forehead.
"What's going on?!" Everyone felt horrified, and their hearts were full of fear. A fresh life suddenly died like this, and he was with everyone just now, but now he has left forever, so sudden and strange.
"Don't approach her!" Ye Fan stopped the two male classmates who wanted to approach the corpse. He remembered the snow-white skull he saw when he came, and there was also a bone hole the size of a finger in the center of his forehead. The same way of dying , a bad premonition arose in his heart.
"We desecrated the Daleiyin Temple. Could it be that... the gods are punishing them." A female classmate's voice was trembling, and her heart was full of fear.
"Even if there are gods, the Buddha is also kind." Zhou Yi interrupted her words to avoid the spread of terror, and said, "We have no way to take her away now, we can only let her rest here, and now we must hurry back. to the five-color altar."
No one hesitated. At the moment of life and death, the body of the female classmate was no longer considered.
"When..." Suddenly, the bell sounded melodious, loud and solemn, as if Huang Zhong Dalu was shaking,
An extremely dazzling golden light rushed from Wang Ziwen, and his whole body was shrouded in splendid golden light, as if he was wearing a thick golden battle suit, extremely dazzling, like a golden fire burning.
The broken bronze bell in Wang Ziwen's hand was shaking gently, the grand sound was exactly what it made, and the dazzling golden light also originated from it.
"What happened?" Liu Yunzhi, who was closest to him, asked very nervously.
"Something attacked me just now..." Wang Ziwen was usually gentle, but at this moment, he was enveloped by the golden flames, as if he was wearing a golden battle suit, he was very imposing, like a god in the dust.
