Chapter 224 Temple of Forty Pillars

Temple of Forty Pillars, this temple with only twenty pillars is called the Temple of Forty Pillars for some unknown reason.The shape of the temple is like the temple of the elves in Warcraft, and it looks very beautiful under the light of the plants.In front of the temple, there is a rectangular pool like a huge swimming pool, but because of the dilapidation of the temple, no one continues to fill it with water.Next to the pit, that is, directly opposite the temple, there is a chair fixed on the ground, which seems to be where the man rested.

At the entrance of the Temple of Forty Pillars, there are twenty tall stone pillars like Roman pillars, with vines wrapped around them.At the top of the temple, there is a huge female statue with long hair, a pair of wings on the back, clasped hands, wearing priestly clothes, with her head up, as if praying for something, not like the underground people.

As a linguist, Mary naturally got mixed up in the Gaul exploration team.Her task today is to decipher the temple's inscription through the introduction of the underground people.Rather than saying it is an inscription, it is better to say it is a temple notice.Looking at the writing on the huge stone in front of the temple, the underground man translated it for Mary. The general situation is: "Thieves and thieves can only die if they enter this place, and the temple is just an instrument for starting. place."

Mary looked up at the statue, pointed to it and asked, "Didn't you say that the opening button is at the highest end of the Temple of Forty Pillars? That's the statue, right?"

The underground man waved his hand and said angrily, "What forty pillars? It's clearly a temple with twenty pillars. There are only twenty pillars in front of the gate, and there are no other pillars at all. And the statue on it We've gone up there a long time ago, and we haven't found any mechanism."

Mary rubbed her chin and murmured: "Is there no mechanism?"

At this time, Mary discovered that a Gaul explorer had already climbed up to the statue. After a while of groping, it seemed that, as the underground people said, they found nothing.At this time, the exploration team gathered together again, and said one after another: "Mary, you are a linguist, have you seen anything from the inscription of the underground man?"

Mary shook her head, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and said, "It's not an inscription, but a message to tell the temple where the switch is." Then she looked at the few people who had climbed near the statue just now, and asked: "Didn't you find anything at that statue?"

The few members of the exploration team just shook their heads and said helplessly: "Nothing was found, did the underground people remember the temple wrongly, this temple clearly only has [-] pillars, where did they get [-] pillars? "

After hearing this, Mary said: "The underground man said the same thing before. There are only twenty pillars in this temple, and there are no forty pillars at all. Either the name was given by the underground man who built this temple, or the underground man really misremembered."

"Sassy..."

There was a sound of restlessness, and a tiger the size of a rhinoceros suddenly rushed out of the grass and ran directly to the Gaul expedition team. The expedition team leader shouted: "No, it's dangerous!"

Everyone dispersed quickly, and at this time the underground guards rushed over with the spray bug, aiming at the huge tiger for interview and shooting.Bunches of powerful liquid shot into the tiger's body in an instant, and a series of blood flowers were shot out.In an instant, the tiger was beaten into a sieve by the guards of the underground people, and fell to the ground gasping for breath, dying.

Fortunately, there are underground guards, otherwise it will be troublesome, it is really a false alarm.Mary was so frightened that she ran around the swimming pool-like rectangle, ran to the chair and sat down, looked at the tiger that fell on the ground and was shot down by a few guards with spray bugs, breathed a sigh of relief, stroked Liu Hai, who was so frightened that he ran away with disheveled hair, pursed his mouth: "I'm so scared to death."

Mary took out a cosmetic box and began to slowly arrange her face in the mirror.After running for a while, sweating profusely, a lot of the light makeup on my body was spent, so I quickly touched up my makeup and put on powder.When everything was settled, Mary's mood calmed down.When Mary was about to close the makeup box, she glanced at the pink cockroach in the mirror through the mirror of the makeup box.He was taken aback for a moment, then blinked, raised his head and glanced at the forty-column temple directly opposite him, across the swimming pool.Then he took another look at the rectangular pit in front of him that looked like a swimming pool, and finally took a last look at the lipstick in the makeup box that was reflected in the mirror.

Mary rubbed her brows lightly, then closed the makeup box in ecstasy, put it into her arms, and shouted excitedly: "Hahahaha, everyone, I know what's going on, I know What happened to the Temple of Forty Pillars!!!"

Not only the Gauls, but even the underground people looked at Mary one after another, with puzzled expressions on their faces. Mary danced and said, "Reflection! It's a reflection!"

"Ok?"

Mary waved her hand and told everyone to hurry to her place.Mary sat on the chair, crossed her legs, and said with a look on her face, "We were all misled. This temple is indeed a temple with forty pillars, not a temple with twenty pillars."

The exploration leader asked, "What do you mean?"

Mary wiped her nose, pointed at the rectangular pool below, and said with a triumphant smile: "Have you seen the pool in front of you? What will happen if you fill this pool with water? Then sit on my seat and look at the temple. What kind of effect will the clothes appear?"

The exploration captain came behind Mary and bent down slightly. From Mary's seat, he looked over the rectangular pool and looked at the temple. The captain was surprised: "You mean the reflection!?"

Mary snapped her fingers and said with a smile: "Yes, the reflection. If the pool is filled with water, sit at my position and look over, then the reflection of the Temple of Forty Pillars will appear on the water. And the water will also Twenty pillars will emerge, combined with the existing twenty pillars of the temple, the name of the temple of forty pillars is also worthy of the name. The temple of forty pillars said that "the opening button is at the highest point at the top of the temple of forty pillars", and We all mistakenly thought that it was on the statue above the temple. Actually it is not, after confirming the reflection, we can find that the switch of the temple is at the bottom of this rectangular pool.”

After what Mary said, everyone suddenly realized why the temple with only [-] pillars is called the temple of forty pillars, and there will be a huge rectangular pool in front of the temple, and there will be a chair directly opposite the temple next to the pool. Quickly ordered: "Take out the holographic projector, and simulate the water surface and reflection in the pool from this angle!"

"Yes!"

Soon, the pool was filled with "water" under the holographic projection, sparkling, under the light of the surrounding plants and insects, as Mary had speculated, forty pillars appeared one by one in the In front of everyone.The leader of the exploration swallowed, jumped off the pool cautiously, and walked slowly towards the statue in the reflection under the guidance of the team members on the pool.

With a "click", when the leader of the exploration reached the highest point of the statue in the reflection, he seemed to have touched some mechanism, the ground trembled, and a huge vine broke out directly from the bottom of the pool, scaring the leader of the exploration back again and again.A flower bud is slowly growing up on this vine, and the fluorescent flower bud is about to bloom. A teenage little loli hugs her knees and curls among the flowers. She has long pink hair and fair skin. The skin and a pair of transparent wings on the back, like a flower fairy, look quite cute.

At this moment, little Loli stretched her waist, slowly opened her eyes, looked at the people in front of her, stood up, flapped her wings, slowly floated on the flowers, and said excitedly: "Ah, It’s the underground people, um, there are other aliens? It seems that everyone hasn’t been able to return to the ground to live, but it doesn’t matter, I will leave it to me.”

Everyone looked at the scene in front of them in amazement, and the leader of the exploration opened his mouth and asked, "That woman on the statue...you...who are you?"

The flower fairy little loli blinked her eyes, stared at the exploration captain, and said in Gaul with a smile: "Me? I am the AI ​​of the Temple of Forty Pillars, the flower of the century 'Luo Lian', hehehehe. Since You have awakened me, then as you wish, let the plants return to the ground, I have detected that the sandstorm on the ground has weakened a lot."

Luo Lian flew in the air, holding a glowing sphere with both hands, and smashed it down towards the ground.Immediately afterwards, the ball of light spread rapidly like a shock wave, and the whole underground world began to tremble in the next second, and the plants that originally grew underground began to grow crazily, breaking through layers of thick soil, piercing through The ground, has reached the requested surface.In just an hour or so, one tenth of Taal's surface was covered with green vegetation, and the wind and sand disappeared.

The changes on the ground were naturally transmitted to the exploration team through news. At this time, Luo Lian said with a smile: "Okay, there are still nine temples, let's make persistent efforts!"
