The mysterious figure was silent for a moment, then said, "In that case, follow me." After that, he turned and walked into the darkness.
Chu Lingxiao and Gu Qingze looked at each other and decided to follow the mysterious figure to find out what was going on.
They followed the figure through narrow streets and arrived in front of an abandoned temple. The temple door was closed, revealing an air of decay.
The mysterious figure stopped and pointed at the temple and said, "The truth is inside."
Chu Lingxiao walked forward and pushed the door open. A stale, musty smell filled the air, and a hint of strangeness lingered in the darkness.
"This is..." Gu Qingze looked confused.
Chu Lingxiao glanced up and down at the temple, thinking about something.
Suddenly, he seemed to understand something, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"So that's how it is. This is the source of the illusion..." Chu Lingxiao said softly.
Gu Qingze asked curiously, "Husband, do you know the key to this place? How do we break it?"
Chu Lingxiao frowned and fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he spoke, "This temple seems to contain some mysterious power that is closely related to the creation of this illusion. If we want to dispel this illusion, we may need to explore this temple in depth."
Gu Qingze nodded and said with a firm look in her eyes, "No matter what dangers lie ahead, I will face them together with my husband."
Even though it was words of encouragement, Qingze said it in this tone, and called her "husband"...
Although Chu Lingxiao was called this way all the way, he didn't know if it was because his ability to accept it was too weak, and he still felt a little uncomfortable. He could only secretly be glad that this was only the case in this illusion.
If Qingze called him that in the real world, he might ignore him for a while, but Qingze has always been very well-behaved. He has never called him that since he didn't allow it before. This time it was just due to special circumstances.
The two walked into the temple cautiously. The temple was filled with a strange atmosphere, and the walls were covered with strange symbols and patterns.
Chu Lingxiao carefully observed the symbols, trying to find clues to decipher the illusion, while Gu Qingze vigilantly observed the surrounding movements.
Suddenly, a breeze blew, and a slight rustling sound was heard in the temple.
Gu Qingze's heart tightened, and he gently reminded her, "Husband, be careful of a trap."
Chu Lingxiao nodded and motioned Gu Qingze to come closer to him.
They continued walking forward and came to a huge statue.
The statue's face is ferocious and makes people shudder.
“Is this really a statue?”
Gu Qingze looked at that place in confusion. Anyway, the statues of gods he had seen in his memory did not look like this.
If we don't tell you about the statues enshrined in this temple, passers-by who don't know the truth will just think that something evil is enshrined here...
Wait a minute, it doesn’t seem to say that there are statues of gods enshrined here!!
Chu Lingxiao shook his head. "I'm not sure either, but temples usually hold statues of gods. If it were something bad, why would they build a temple specifically to enshrine it?"
In fact, he didn't know much more about this kind of thing than Qingze. He only knew that role-playing was required in the illusion, and he realized that this temple might be a key clue... The rest required him and Qingze to explore to find out the whole story.
