Tomb Raider: Invincible Double Pupil, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

Chapter 386 Blind Superstition

Xu Feng said at this time: "Since we are already here, let's go in and take a look. Is there anything wrong?"

It turned its head and looked at Wu Congyi, somewhat puzzled. It was worried that Wu Congyi would refuse. Unexpectedly, Wu Congyi nodded and said happily, "Okay. It's a good opportunity to go in and worship the Gu God."

Xu Feng nodded and walked in with everyone.

The door of this cabin was very strange, as it was actually located at the back. Perhaps they had gone in the wrong direction and walked to the back of the cabin, only to see a small flat area in front of them, like a platform.

Those who come to worship should enter from this place.

The door of the wooden building was directly open, without any sliding door or other cover.

However, even though the hole was open, they still couldn't see clearly what was inside.

Maybe because the light was too dim, it looked pitch black inside.

Before entering, everyone shone the searchlight at the cabin, but they only saw some very strange things placed inside.

Those things might be what is used when using poisonous insects and witchcraft.

So they don't care much.

However, after they walked in, they discovered that there were many wooden sculptures on both sides of the house. The shapes of these wooden sculptures looked very strange.
There are ten model sculptures on one side, a total of twenty wooden sculptures. The wooden sculptures look like people, but also like beds. They look extremely scary.

When the fat man saw these things, he couldn't help but say, "Could this be the Eighteen Arhats from Xiangxi?"

Xu Feng smiled and said, "Fatty, why don't you count them? How can this be the Eighteen Arhats? There are obviously twenty of them!!"

Fatty Wang looked around and counted carefully, only to find that there were indeed twenty people: "Are those the twenty Arhats?"

"Little Master Xu..."

Fatty Wang chuckled twice, and Xu Feng looked forward, but he only saw a larger sculpture, which seemed to be in the center of the temple, but it was covered with red silk cloth and did not reveal its appearance.

This made everyone even more curious.

Xu Feng was very curious, so he pointed at the sculpture and asked, "Brother Wu, is this the god you believe in?"

Wu Congyi nodded, his eyes still full of piety.

But Xu Feng continued to ask, "If this is your Gu God, why do you cover it with a red cloth?"

"Yeah, isn't he too embarrassed to be seen?!"

Fatty Wang also joined in the conversation, which made Wu Congyi even more unhappy.

"How can the Gu God's true face be shown to others so easily?"

Wu Congyi also said unhappily that everyone felt it was very strange. After they walked in, they found that the layout of this place was like a Buddhist temple.

The Buddha was placed in the center, surrounded by the Eighteen Arhats, but they never expected that after careful observation, they found that these were not the Eighteen Arhats, but twenty unknown creatures. These creatures looked like humans and insects, and were very strange.

Such a strange imagination can probably only be imagined by people from Xiangxi Gu King's side, because these statues look different in posture and all kinds of weirdness, and each one is ugly in different ways, which even makes people feel frightened.

After seeing this, everyone just felt a little disgusted. After all, it was a bug, but it was treated as a god to be released. Only people in this place could do that.

Therefore, they still find it hard to accept it in their hearts.

At this time, Wu Congyi had already walked in front of the largest statue. Although it was covered by a red cloth, this statue was obviously several times larger than the other statues.

Everyone can feel it.

Everyone looked at the statue covered with red cloth, and they all wanted to pull the red cloth away to see what the statue looked like.

But it was hard for everyone to say anything, only Fatty Wang stepped forward and said, "We finally got here, how can we not see the true face of the Gu God?"

As he spoke, Fatty Wang stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to tear off the red cloth. Wu Congyi was naturally frightened when he saw this. He immediately became nervous and even started yelling at Fatty Wang.

"Fatty Wang! What are you doing? Don't be so rash."

Wu Congyi yelled at the fat man without stopping his actions. He rushed forward quickly, pulled the fat man back and shouted angrily.

"Fatty Wang, what are you trying to do? If you anger the gods, all of us will suffer."

The fat man was very surprised and turned around, but only saw Wu Congyi's serious expression.

It seemed that if he really pulled off the red cloth, this guy called Gu God might get furious and kill all of them here.

This surprised Fatty Wang. She immediately turned around and said, "Brother Wu, I know you believe in this guy. It is understandable to respect him, but blindly believing in him is not good."

Fatty Wang's words not only failed to calm Wu Congyi down, but made him even angrier.

He immediately said, "Fatty Wang, what are you talking about? I don't know what your attitude is towards gods in your place, but in our place, we must respect gods and cannot show even the slightest disrespect!"

"If you accidentally offend someone, bad luck will surely befall you. You cannot even say a disrespectful word."

Hearing this, Fatty Wang turned his head in astonishment and looked at Wu Congyi, but he only saw Wu Congyi with seriousness in his eyes. The serious expression on his face also showed that he believed in what he said very much and had no doubts at all.

This made Fatty Wang even more shocked. What era did this guy live in? How could he be so superstitious?
Fatty Wang turned his head and looked at Xu Feng again, then said, "Young Master Xu, you see, Brother Wu is really devout in his faith, but what era is this now? Shouldn't we put aside blind feudal superstition?"

Hearing this, Wu Congyi became even more unhappy. He immediately threw the fat man's hand aside and said, "This guy is too arrogant. If you really offended someone, let you die alone. It has nothing to do with us."

Wu Congyi immediately stepped aside and knelt down to worship the Gu God again. Seeing this situation... everyone felt very confused.

Perhaps only the people in this place can understand the feeling of serving God. In any case, they don't understand.

However, are there other people like the fat man who deliberately wanted to confront Wu Congyi?
