The bust of the Buddha was hollowed out.

Bai Xiaoyi's spirit body penetrates the stone wall and enters the bust Buddha statue.

After about ten meters inside the stone wall, Yilin's "eyes" suddenly opened up.

In front of Bai Xiaoyi, there is a channel leading to nowhere.

The passage is very rudimentary, like digging a hole with an excavator, which can only accommodate one person.

On the wall of the passage, I don't know where the wire came from and extended deep.

Above the channel, an old energy-saving LED bulb is hung from time to time to provide limited light source.

Yilin noticed that there were many exhaust windows around the channel, in which there was the shadow of fan rotation.

"Although the facilities here look old, considering the difficulty of excavation, it should not be completed in a moment and a half. It seems that this should be one of the secret strongholds of Dawning sect for at least several years."

Yilin and Bai Xiaoyi have the same mind and let Bai Xiaoyi float deep along the channel.

But after floating out almost 30 meters away, Yilin has felt bursts of tingling in the middle of his eyebrows.

Obviously, this distance is the limit he can carry.

Yilin reluctantly takes Bai Xiaoyi back.

Inside the Buddha statue, it was transformed into a fortress.

The people of Dawning sect should hide in it.

If there were no accidents, the missing persons in Litai city for nearly three months should also be there.

Bai Xiaoyi floats beside Yilin with a curious expression.

After all, I haven't come out to breathe for so long. It seems that the owner has something to do with this bubble, which makes Ling very excited.

Acridine! Ordinary life, how no passion!

"By the way, master, I seem to have heard some strange sounds."

When Yilin was thinking about the next countermeasures, Bai Xiaoyi suddenly said.

"Hmm? What sound? Do you hear what it is?"

What Yilin and Bai Xiaoyi really share is only "vision", which can not fully share the five senses. Therefore, Bai Xiaoyi may be able to listen to the strange chanting more vividly than Yilin outside the bust Buddha.

"There seem to be many, many, many people in it."

Bai Xiaoyi tried to open her hand and wanted to vividly describe "a lot".

"They seem to be shouting slogans, like..."

Bai Xiaoyi seriously recalled the strange voice echoing inside the Buddha statue. She lowered the voice line and whispered:

"They are demons... We are divine servants... Um... What awakening, pain... Dawn and so on."

Bai Xiaoyi's cultural level is limited. He can only think about it a little bit.

"Embrace the dawn?"

Yilin thought of Sheng chunrou's slogan.

"Well, that seems to be it! Master, you're really good!"

Bai Xiaoyi is very clever and flatters a low-key flatterer by the way.

Yilin frowned and looked dignified.

Bai Xiaoyi can only hear a few words clearly and can't provide too much information.

devil?

God servant?

Who do they mean?

Wake up? Pain?

Yilin suddenly had a bad feeling.

He felt it more and more strange.

There is a feeling of mountain rain and wind all over the building.

Ah, no

Erin wiped the rain on her face.

It does rain now.

Yilin recalled the AVI she had seen at Sheng chunrou's house.

It's a small video made by Sheng chunrou in an abnormal mental state.

"Sheng chunrou knew that there was a problem with the dawning sect, but she still plunged into it."

"At first she thought that she would not stumble here as an apostle."

"It's estimated that she didn't understand the reality deeply enough, was careless, and finally took herself in."

"It seems that she is for that 'painting', but what is that 'painting'? Should it be a prop left by the Apostle? Or a spiritual weapon? Otherwise Sheng chunrou, as an apostle, would not take such a risk for that 'painting'."

"By the way, she once said a sentence in the video..."

"They don't have much time."

"Why is time running out?"

"That's why someone in the dawning sect knows that we are investigating this matter and takes risks to continue to abduct humans from the city of Litai?"

Just when Yilin was thinking.

"Go!"

"Keep up!"

In the distance, a few cries came faintly.

Yilin's heart moved and quickly put Bai Xiaoyi away.

Like a shadow, he hid in the shadow at the foot of the Buddha and didn't move.

In a few minutes.

In the dark, several flashlight lights appeared.

With the appearance of the light, several figures in raincoats came here quickly.

"Those six people?"

Yilin's eyes were frozen.

I never thought of it.

He unexpectedly arrived at the foot of Dadu Maitreya one step ahead of the six people.

Is it because he has better strength?

Yilin quickly found a reason.

Sure enough, people's physique can't be generalized.

When Yilin climbed the mountain in the dark, he was worried about falling too far behind and didn't have a rest all the way.

Yilin thought and silently opened the "follow me" in the dark.

In this environment, the effect of [shadow following] is brought into full play.

Unless the other party's flashlight just pasted on Yilin's face.

Otherwise, even if you accidentally walk in front of Yilin, you may not be able to detect Yilin's existence.

Click, click, click.

After arriving at the foot of Dadu Maitreya Buddha, the six people walked directly to one of the "toes" without stopping.

Although it is a "toe", that toe is much higher than Yilin's height, equivalent to a flat stone wall.

One of the leaders, a man in his thirties with strong bones, fiddled with it somewhere on the stone wall. In the dark, Yilin only heard the sound of stone grinding.

From the perspective of Yilin's hiding, I just can't see what the man did. I'm sorry.

But it's just an entrance.

Yilin didn't bubble immediately and stopped those people.

It doesn't make sense.

It is very likely that these people are just minions of the dawn sect and can't touch deeper secrets.

After a few minutes, the light of the flashlight disappeared, and the movements of those people completely disappeared from the big belly Maitreya Buddha.

After Yilin confirmed that the people had entered the inside of the bust Buddha, he came out of the shadow.

"It should be here."

Irene went to the position of the toe on their face wall just now.

Sure enough, in a very secret depression, there was a compass engraved with words.

The compass is about the size of a palm. From the inside to the outside, it has nine layers, and each layer is engraved with many words.

"A, B, C, D..."

"One, two, three, four..."

"Gold, wood, water, fire..."

"Hmm? Very old mechanism?"

But Yilin thought, maybe it is this ancient mechanism that can stop any outsiders from spying.

Again high-end password lock, or fingerprint, iris, brush face verification, as long as it is a program, there will be loopholes.

As we all know, AI programs popularized in the real world today are pseudo artificial intelligence. They are not artificial intelligence that can really think about evolution on their own. They all have the possibility of being hacked.

Like ou Lele, he once threatened that there was no program in the world that he could not crack.

Of course, he was open and cheated, which can not be measured by pure technology.

On the contrary, it is this old password lock that makes people helpless.

It's no use when o'lele comes.

Yilin smiled: "but I don't need to unlock at all."

While talking to himself, Yilin carefully searched nearby.

A moment later.

Yilin found the gap.

The entrance is like cutting the stone wall with some kind of equipment. After making the mechanism, it is installed back intact.

If you hadn't witnessed the six people entering the bust from this position, you might mistakenly think that this circle of gap is the texture of the Buddha itself.

"Shadow kill."

Yilin's body suddenly twisted and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After launching the skills, Yilin turned into a flexible shadow, up and down, left, right and right, going everywhere. As long as it is a terrain that can leave a shadow, there is no dead corner for Yilin in theory.

The shadow of Yilin's skill disappeared into the gap in an instant.

Behind the gap, there is indeed a channel.

On both sides of the channel, as Yilin saw in "Bai Xiaoyi's vision", simple LED lights are hung on the channel, which is not too dark.

Yilin didn't cancel his skills. After all, after entering the "shadow state", he could afford to burn 3 psionic power points per second.

Inside the Buddha statue, the route of the channel is not very complicated.

Simple branches lead to several areas.

In the "shadow state", Yilin quickly explored the interior of the bust Buddha.

In one area, caves that can only accommodate one person have been chiseled on both sides of the channel. The caves are closed with thick iron bars. Here is the prison.

Yilin quickly moves inside the Buddha statue.

After the canteen... Dormitory... Leisure area

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Yilin couldn't believe that the ruins of Maitreya Buddha with big belly had been developed into such a small fortress with complete internal organs.

After a while.

The chanting sound echoing inside the Buddha statue became clearer and clearer.

Yilin followed this strange sound and crawled forward.

More and more clear.

The voices of countless people whispering together are like nonsense, prayer and praise.

Inexplicable and meaningless words, recited without any emotion, combined with the gloomy environment around, bring people a creepy horror.

In the shadow, Yilin was shocked.

He moved forward quickly.

In a moment.

Yilin's eyes suddenly lit up.

This is a spacious space.

If you guessed correctly, it should be in the "belly" of Maitreya with big belly.

Tick tock——

Overhead, from time to time, there are water droplets seeping and dripping from the stone cracks in the ceiling... It's raining outside.

Irene glanced at the remaining power values on the Apostle panel, quickly changed back to the face of "man" and curled up in the shadow.

In the hall.

People with empty eyes, thin bodies and ragged clothes crawled on the ground.

And now.

Lurking in the dark, Yilin finally heard the content they recited——

"They destroy all living beings,"

"We save all living beings,"

"Ah,"

"The great lord of void, the light of dawn, the imprisoned God,"

"We are willing to give our humble flesh and blood,"

"We beg for your coming,"

"Bring pain to this foolish world,"

"We will awaken the world,"

"We will bring infinite dawn to the world with our blood."

"Embrace the dawn..."

"Embrace the dawn..."

"Embrace the dawn..."
