Chapter 1063 Moon Temple
The distance was too far, and Zhou Wen couldn't see the situation clearly. He had an idea and put on an invisible cloak and approached Shen Yuchi and the others.
The Ice Girl followed Zhou Wen quietly. With her skills, even if she didn't transform into fear, Shen Yuchi and Wang Qiuyuan would not be able to find her.
When Zhou Wen got closer, he saw that the wooden house where the two of them were kneeling looked more like a temple, but the temple had no plaque or sign, and even the temple walls were made of osmanthus wood. However, it was clearly a wooden house, and there were branches growing on it, with beautiful osmanthus flowers blooming.
When you arrive in this area, you no longer feel the coldness of Guanghan Palace. Instead, you feel cool and refreshed, and indescribably comfortable.
The door of the wooden house was closed. Shen Yuchi and Wang Qiuyuan were kneeling in front of the house. They didn't see any dimensional creatures around, but they just knelt in front of the door, put their heads on the ground, and didn't move.
"Could it be that there is some invisible force suppressing them and forcing them to kneel?" Zhou Wen looked left and right, but could not see any power fluctuations, so he looked at the Ice Girl beside him.
The Ice Girl obviously knew what Zhou Wen was thinking, and said in a voice that only Zhou Wen could hear: "They are not suppressed by any force."
"This is strange. There are no dimensional creatures and no force to suppress them. Why are they kneeling here? Or in other words, what's the point of them kneeling here? If this is really the temple of the Moon Goddess, then they are kneeling here, are they trying to ask for benefits from the Moon Goddess? But how do they know that the Moon God will do them good if they kneel down?" Zhou Wen was secretly puzzled.
Because the story of Chang'e flying to the moon is so famous, people don't know much about the real moon goddess. Zhou Wen has only heard of the legend of Taiyin Niangniang, but he is not sure what kind of deity Taiyin Niangniang is.
Since Shen Yuchi and the others were kneeling here, they must have known something. Zhou Wen was just a little confused as to how they knew it. The conclusions drawn from the myth alone might not be correct. People like Shen Yuchi would definitely not come here to take risks for such speculation.
"Commander, will this really work?" Wang Qiuyuan knelt there, not daring to move, but couldn't help but speak.
"It works. Just kneel down and don't move. Don't talk anymore." Shen Yuchi replied.
Then they fell into silence again. They knelt there without moving or speaking. This made Zhou Wen a little depressed. He had thought he could hear some secrets, but who knew they would not speak either.
"If you want to know something, why not ask them now?" said the Ice Girl.
"I asked them... Yes... Why didn't I think of it... You are so smart..." Zhou Wen suddenly understood what Bingnv meant.
Shen Yuchi and the others were kneeling in front of the wooden house, and they must have something to ask for. They certainly didn't dare to stand up. If we asked them now, I'm afraid they wouldn't dare to deny it.
Zhou Wen retracted his invisibility cloak and walked directly towards Shen Yuchi and Wang Qiuyun who were kneeling in front of the door.
Shen Yuchi and Wang Qiuyuan were both startled when they heard the footsteps. Even though they didn't dare to look up, they quickly recognized that the person coming was Zhou Wen just by the footsteps.
"Zhou Wen, you came at the right time. We are trapped here and are suppressed and unable to move. Come and save us." Wang Qiyuan pleaded.
If Zhou Wen had not heard their conversation before, he would have been frightened by him and might not have dared to go over there again.
"Okay, I'll go and save you right away." Zhou Wen curled his lips, walked directly to Wang Qiuyuan, and reached out to pull him.
"Don't... don't touch me..." Wang Qiuyuan trembled and shouted hurriedly.
"Director Shen, what is going on? You should at least make up a story to deal with me, right?" Zhou Wen squatted down, pressed his fingers on Shen Yuchi's arm, and said calmly.
Shen Yuchi crouched there, not daring to move. Wang Qiuyuan beside him said, "We originally wanted to save Xiao Wei, but we couldn't see the road clearly in the cold fog, so we accidentally stumbled here and got cursed. If we move, we will explode..."
"This story is not good, Director Shen. How about you make one up yourself?" Zhou Wen said lightly.
Shen Yuchi finally spoke: "Before coming to the moon, we consulted a lot of information and learned a lot about the moon in myths and legends. However, those materials are just guesses based on myths and legends. We don't know whether they are true or not, so we haven't made them public."
"This is quite interesting. Keep going." Zhou Wen kept pressing Shen Yuchi's arm with his fingers, as if he would push them at any time.
"Guanghan Palace is actually a cold palace used for confinement, so Chang'e is not the master of the moon, but merely a prisoner. In mythology and legend, the true master of the moon is Taiyin Niangniang, also known as Taiyin Yuanjun Xiaodao Mingwang Lingbao Jingming Huangsu Tianzun, the Moon God. Where we are now is the true residence of the Moon Goddess, the Moon Goddess Temple."
Shen Yuchi paused and continued, "We believe that the nature of the Moon God Temple should be similar to that of the Earth God Temple. Perhaps there will be some benefits to worshipping here."
"This story is somewhat plausible, but don't tell me that you didn't know about the existence of the bone pottery jar and the dead before you came to the moon." Zhou Wen said coldly.
"In fact, the bone pottery jar and the dead body were discovered a long time ago. When I was on Earth, I had done a lot of research and consulted many experts, so I knew that the bone pottery jar was actually a sacrificial vessel." Shen Yuchi said.
"You knew that anyone who picked up the bone pottery jar would be possessed, right?" Zhou Wen said, staring at Shen Yuchi.
"I can't be sure about this. I only know that bone pottery jars are used to worship gods. Ancient wizards used bone pottery jars to communicate with spirits or invite gods to possess them, but they usually used water or wine. I have never heard of this kind of bone pottery jar with flames, and I don't know what it is used for." Shen Yuchi was obviously unwilling to admit that he had already known the consequences of touching the bone pottery jar.
Zhou Wen didn't say anything and continued to ask, "Did you originally want me to touch the bone pottery jar?"
"How could I have such an idea? I absolutely don't have such an idea." Shen Yuchi said.
"Does Wei Ge know about the bone pottery jar?" Zhou Wen didn't say anything else and asked Shen Yuchi another question.
"The matter of the bone pottery jar is a highly confidential matter of my Supervisory Bureau. Xiao Wei's level is not enough to access those secrets." Wang Qiuyuan said.
Zhou Wen probably guessed this was the case. He and Wei Ge were actually the victims brought by Shen Yuchi. Shen Yuchi originally wanted to lure Zhou Wen to touch the bone pottery jar.
Originally, Shen Yuchi thought that a young man like Zhou Wen, who was successful at a young age and had strong strength, would want to study it thoroughly when he encountered something unknown.
But who knew that Zhou Wen was like an old man who was afraid of death. Even though he had such strength, he was still unbelievably cautious. He seemed to have no curiosity at all and did not touch the bone pottery jar at all. This made Shen Yuchi very disappointed.
