31, Temple of the Burning Lamp 02(1/2)

The firelight of thousands of candles gathered together, making the entire long table extremely warm and bright.

The brass cover on the tray was opened, and their dinner was placed inside. There were two types of dishes, fruit salad and vegetable salad. There was also a glass in front of each person, containing juice from an unknown fruit.

Yu Feichen simply ate something that didn't look so weird. Others were not very interested in eating, and it didn't take long for everyone to put down their knives and forks.

The man who looked like a scholar suddenly hit the glass with his fork, and everyone at the table looked at him.

"The world doesn't seem to be very malicious to us," he said. "After we return to the room today, we will follow what the old man just said and don't go out. Then we will each go to the room to see if there are any clues that can be used, and we will work together tomorrow

, complete the request."

The lord's wife Juna said "Okay", the two kings also nodded, and the others also did not express their objections clearly.

According to the old man in the cloak, the sleeping room was next door. Soon they found a door on the side of the hall. After opening the door, there was a U-shaped closed corridor. The corridor was very narrow and was illuminated by many candles like the hall.

.There are doors on both sides, and there is also a door at the end.

Bai Song said "Huh" and said, "It's like the order of the table."

Indeed, the table arrangement arranged by the old man for them was also arranged in this way. However, now there are only four doors opened on each side of the wall. In other words, there must be two people sleeping in the same room on each side.

Yu Feichen didn't say anything, and led Bai Song into the room on the left at the end.

Then, he saw the Pope enter the room at the blind corner. The Queen entered the opposite side with her silent footman in gray.

Juna held her husband Jude's arm, and while looking around slightly excitedly, she also walked into the room that belonged to their position. Others also entered the room according to their seats.

After entering the room, Bai Song looked around.

"So many candles," he said.

Indeed, this bedroom was as brightly lit as the hall and corridor. Each side of the wall was inlaid with three rows of densely packed black iron candlesticks from high to low, with white tallow candles inserted in each candlestick.

The room was not big, with only a bed and a chair. The unique smell of grease from burning candles filled the whole room.

Sultry and creamy.

After a few breaths, the wet grease seemed to fill the lungs. As the number of breaths increased, the feeling became more turbid and greasy, as if the blood all over the body had turned into warm wax oil.

Yu Feichen looked around the room.

There is a large window on the wall opposite the door, and there are some concave and convex stone carvings on the side walls. Other than that, there is nothing noteworthy.

He walked to the stone wall. Bai Song came to the window.

"Can this window be opened?" He groped on the window lattice and muttered, "I think I'm going to die."

Indeed, the waxy air was extremely uncomfortable and made every movement feel heavy.

But Yu Feichen still said: "Don't open the window unless you can't hold it anymore."

"Why?"

Yu Feichen simply said: "Evil spirit."

According to the information revealed by the cloaked old man, there is currently an evil spirit haunting this temple.

Bai Song thought for a moment and said "Oh". The fear of evil spirits crawling out of the window overshadowed his desire for fresh air. He let go of his hand that was already on the window latch. He came to Yu Feichen's side, and the two of them

Look at the wall together.

The walls are made of neatly built limestone blocks of half a square meter, with horizontal and vertical gaps.

Among the patterns on the wall, the most eye-catching one is the layers of concentric rings. Each ring is densely engraved with short lines perpendicular to the center of the circle. In the center is a logo like a trident head.

On the whole, the carving has the halberd head as the core, the rings gradually enlarge, and the short lines form a radial pattern, as if something is gradually expanding, bringing a mysterious sense of oppression.

Bai Song said: "So majestic."

Yu Feichen glanced at Bai Song in surprise, the child was right.

"It's a totem," he said, "the sun."

The trident pattern is used to represent flames in many civilizations around the world, and the gradually enlarging ring symbolizes the rays of light radiating outward. The combination, although very different from the image of the real sun, is indeed a sun totem.

Therefore, this is most likely a temple that worships the sun.

After listening to the explanation, Bai Song said "Wow": "Brother Yu, you are so awesome!"

Yu Feichen didn't give the proper reaction to being praised.

When leading an employer, if he has to react every time he is praised, then he will not have time to complete the task.

Of course, if he has to respond every time he is complained about, he will not have time to take on the next task.

This is a regular totem, but there is one place in the whole pattern that is very disharmonious.

Outside the ring, in the lower right corner, there is a small ring about the size of a thumb. The scratches are very shallow and difficult to detect.

Spot? Companion star? Moon?

They are not alike, the depth of the carvings is inconsistent with the large pattern, the techniques are different, and the degree of dust fall is also different.

Bai Song's mind was spinning very quickly: "Then is this the star or the moon?"

Yu Feichen shook his head.

He bent his knuckles and tapped the wall a few times, frowned slightly, placed his fingers in the middle of the small ring, and pressed hard.

no response.

Then circle your finger around the circle.

——Still no response.

After wrapping, press the center of the circle again.

A slight sound suddenly appeared in the room.

Then, they saw that the twelve square stones facing them were rotated to a position perpendicular to the original wall with the axis in the middle row.

This is a secret door!

And what the secret door leads to——

Yu Feichen: "."

The room behind this wall is a gorgeous bedroom, with fur carpets on the floor and exquisite porcelain dolls placed on the bedside.

And directly facing him, there was a person standing.

Pope Ludwig.

The young pope has long hair disheveled, his bare feet are stepping on the snow-white fur of the carpet, and he is wearing a loose and thin silk black robe. He is hanging the gorgeous and heavy coat in the wardrobe.

At this moment, the Pope also turned his head and looked at him quietly with an expressionless face.

quietly.

Yu Feichen: "I'm sorry."

He pressed the button decisively, and the wall rotated again and closed.

Bai Song: "..."

"Brother Yu," he said, "I really belong to you."

Shut up.

Yu Feichen doesn't want such praise.

There was a mechanism hidden in the wall, and he could tell it when he knocked on the wall. According to his prediction, this location should be an unknown room, because the Pope's room was clearly next to another wall.

But he didn't expect that the rooms provided by the temple were of different specifications. The Pope's bedroom was much larger, so much so that it covered both sides of his room, and an embarrassing scene occurred.

But then again, why does the Knight Commander's room have a secret passage leading to the Pope's room?

Yu Feichen looked at the decorations on his sword again, trying to find any clues - now he suspected that this "Knight Captain Yu Fei" was actually the Pope's knight.

So are there internal connections between the various characters on the long table? Will they play a role in the hunt in this world? These will have to wait and be verified in the future. After the room inspection is completed, what needs to be done now is to sleep.

They couldn't sleep together. He was on duty in the first half of the night and Bai Song was on duty in the second half of the night.

But the lights in the room were too bright, and Bai Song was in an excited mood. He couldn't fall asleep for a while, chattering endlessly. He answered perfunctorily.

"Brother Yu," Bai Song said, "What is an NPC?"

"Marionette," he said.

"It's amazing." Bai Song changed the topic again for some reason and said, "The tour guide hasn't finished telling me yet."

"Where are you talking about?"

"The tour guide is taking me to visit Xihui Street." When he mentioned the paradise, Bai Song became excited. "The tour guide was so good. He took me to the first floor of the Tower of Creation and queued up for five pieces of Huibing.

Shi, then said, take me to Xihui Street to splurge - Brother Yu, there are too many things there!"

Sunset Square - that is, there are two streets next to Huibingshi Square, Sunset Street and Xihui Street.

Sunset Street is a tavern and food street, where you can eat wine and delicacies from all the worlds under the rule of the Lord God. Sunset Street is a shopping street, where you can buy all the items in existence, all settled with aphrodisiac stones.

But he hired a tour guide for Bai Song to introduce the rules of the park, not to take Bai Song shopping.

Moreover, the first floor of the Tower of Creation is where teams are formed and contracts are made. When can I queue up to receive the Glowing Ice Stone?
To be continued...
