It was precisely because of fear that the group of snakes did not dare to approach them.

Obviously, we don't have the ability to do so. There is only one possibility, and that is this coffin! In other words, there was something inside the coffin!

Thinking about this, I subconsciously moved my coffin further away from me.

"What do we do now? It's all snakes outside, now we're trapped here! " Da Long's wife had a face full of panic.

"Don't panic! We still have a chance! "

Da Long pointed to the Buddha statue. The statue was huge, blocking the courtyard behind, but there were still entrances and exits on both sides.

Hearing Da Long's words, the youth with the nickname Ma Zi shrunk his neck, "I think it's better if we don't go in. "This place is a little strange, didn't you notice? Ever since I entered this temple, I felt that something was wrong, as if someone was staring at me."

"Don't try to scare yourself. It's just a coffin. What's there to be afraid of?"

Da Long berated him: "If you don't want to go in, then that's fine too. But if you get eaten by a snake, don't blame me for not reminding you!"

After being frightened like that, Ma Zi immediately panicked and hurriedly said.

I frowned, but didn't say anything. Although I suspect that Da Long has something up his sleeve, we are currently forced into a dead end, and simply have no other choice. It was better to go inside than to stay in the temple and stay in the same room as the coffin.

After making our decision, Da Long led us around the Buddha statue and we entered the pitch black mysterious courtyard.

I don't know if it was my imagination, but the moment I walked into the courtyard, I suddenly heard a muffled "bang", as if something heavy had hit me.

The courtyard behind the Buddha statue was different from the outside, it was open air, and it was surrounded by a two-meter-tall wall. The courtyard wall behind the Buddha statue was even taller, reaching more than four meters. Moreover, the top of the wall was also sealed, not by the roof, but by a piece of cloth, a huge piece of black cloth.

By the light of the flashlight, I noticed that there were some indistinct patterns on the black cloth. I couldn't tell what they were.

What supported the black cloth were four stone pillars that were three to four meters tall. The entire courtyard is covered by a black cloth, so it can be said that it is airtight. Putting aside the moonlight, I believe that not even sunlight can penetrate through.

Who would use such a black cloth to seal the top of the courtyard?

Moreover, judging by the dust on the black cloth, it was obvious that a long time had passed.

Just as he was thinking, someone suddenly asked in surprise, "Look, what is this?"

Following the source of the voice, Zhang Xuan saw a statue standing in the center of the courtyard. Due to the courtyard being too dark, the light from the two flashlights could only be seen once it hit the idol.

The statue was about two meters tall, and it looked ferocious with fangs in its mouth. It held a Demon Fierce Pestle in its hand, and with one knee raised, it looked like it was about to hit someone. No one he didn't know looked like a statue of a demon.

The strangest thing was that beneath the statue, there was a Green Slabstone.

Beneath the stone slab was a dried up well!

The Green Slabstone sealed the well, and the idol was standing on top of the Green Slabstone, it looked like it was pressing down on the well.

There were also four wooden pillars standing around the statue. They were around one meter tall and deeply embedded into the soil. Other than that, there was also a red rope tied around the wooden pillar that surrounded the deity statue.

Seeing this, I was shocked and confused.

The black cloth that sealed the top, the dry well underneath the Green Slabstone, the idol on top of the Green Slabstone, and the wooden pillar that surrounded the idol that was tied with red rope.

What were these things used for?

I used my flashlight to scout around the courtyard. Other than the strange deity statue and dried well in the middle of the courtyard, there was nothing else in the vicinity. It could be said to be completely barren.

Let alone the exit, there wasn't even a rat hole to be seen now. All of them were tightly sealed.

"Eh, there are words on this wooden pillar!"

When Da Long's wife came closer, she reached out his hand to touch the wooden pillar.

I shouted, "Don't touch it! Be careful of the weird things! "

Being frightened by me, Da Long's wife immediately retracted his hand, and asked me what was wrong.

I shook my head. "I'm not sure, but it's best not to touch this stuff. There's something weird here, and if we touch anything we shouldn't, we'll be in trouble!"

"How can it be as mysterious as you say? Isn't it just a statue?" Da Long did not mind.

"Mystical?"

I frowned. "From the moment we entered the mountain, which matter was not mysterious? "You are quite bold and calm."

Da Long's expression changed slightly, but quickly returned to normal. After speaking a few more words, he did not say anything more. His actions made me more and more suspicious, but I didn't dare expose him now because the man in the suit wasn't here. We might not be able to deal with him, but this was under the premise that someone believed me.

But in reality, the remaining people would rather believe in Da Long than me. I am very clear on this point.

"What do we do now? We can't stay here forever, can we? If the horde of snakes were to really charge in, we wouldn't even have the chance to run for our lives. " Scabbers said, craning his neck.

I said, "Let's look around and see if there are any tunnels or holes."

At my suggestion, everyone started to search with their flashlights. However, after searching for a long time, he still could not find any exit.

"We're finished, we're finished! We're really trapped here!" The pockmark was spinning in anxiety.

Just then, Da Long's wife suddenly spoke out: "Actually... There is still another way to escape. "

"What method?" the pockmark asked.

Da Long's wife pointed at the wall and said, "We can climb out. As long as we use a knife, we can cut open the black cloth on the top of the wall."

"But this wall is too high. Look, it's almost four meters tall. How do we get there?" This place is completely empty, not even a stepping stone. " The pockmark sighed.

Da Long continued, "Are you stupid? We have five people here, you can totally leave."

"Sigh!" This is a good idea, why didn't I think of it? " The pockmark immediately became excited and said: "Alright! It's just the Arhat! "

I frowned and said, "Although there are five of us, the wall is at least four meters in length. In other words, we have to build a bridge with two people in order for one person to climb out. The question is, even if three people climbed out, what would happen to the two who built the bridge inside? "

"This is not a problem. After the three of us leave, we can definitely find something and come back to save them." Da Long's wife said.

I smiled. "If so, I don't mind, but I'm not a bridgeman."

Hearing that, Da Long's wife was unhappy: "How can you be like this? A man, can't he bear it? Do you want me to stand below you as a woman? I already said that after we leave, we will immediately find something to save you. You all will only stay for a little longer. "

I sneered in my heart. This plan isn't bad. Before it even started, you and I had already divided the spoils.

I said, "Your husband is also a man. How about you let your husband stand at the bottom and try it? He's much stronger than I am! "Since you've said it already, you will come to save your husband, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to be the bridge, right?"

Hearing that, Da Long's wife was enraged, but could not think of any words to refute.

It's not that I'm petty, it's that I don't feel at ease leaving my fate in the hands of such selfish people. Who knows if they will come to save me after they leave this place. It should be clear that the outside walls were very high, and without suitable support, it was impossible to climb up.

In this situation, the possibility of turning around to save him was too small.

"Alright, alright, everyone has been quarreled! I have a good idea! "

Ma Zi suddenly opened his mouth and pointed his flashlight at the deity statue and said, "See that? This deity statue is over 2 meters tall, it's the most suitable to be used as a stepping stone. As long as we move the statue to the wall, everyone can get out."

"That's a good idea. Let's make our move quickly!"

With that, Da Long's wife began to lead the people forward.

Seeing that I was still standing there without moving, Da Long's wife immediately became annoyed: "Hey! Why don't you come over and help? Do you want to go out? "

I frowned, always feeling uneasy.

"I can't move this statue. If I do, something bad might happen!" "No," I said.

Da Long's wife laughed coldly, "Why do I hear that, you seem to have other plans. You don't agree with me. You don't agree with me to move the statue. I'm surprised, are you deliberately stalling for time to prevent us from leaving? "What are you thinking?!"

Under the provocation of Da Long's wife, I immediately became the target of public criticism, causing everyone to look at me unkindly.

At that moment, I felt something was going to happen.
