Chapter 1: Asking for Buddha with your left hand and asking for your right hand

"Boom--"

Accompanied by a loud bang, the landslide mud and sand poured down like a waterfall, and a sand dune was piled up in the center of the crypt.

The quicksand gradually stopped, and a young man in military uniform crawled out of the sand dunes, spitting out the mud and sand, and looked up to observe the surroundings.

There was no trace of light in the cave. Fortunately, the mine lamp on the helmet was still working. He soon discovered a tilted tunnel opposite him, but he didn't know where to go.

The boy quickly calculated that there were two choices now, either to return to the archaeological base the same way or to explore the unknown road.

He chose the latter without hesitation for too long. First, it was caused by curiosity, and second, he was worried that the crypt would be filled with quicksand next time he came back, and he would not be able to find the newly discovered tunnel.

As a military academy student, he remembers the principle of "not fighting unprepared battles". Before setting off, he first finds his old partner - a spiritual digging drill from the sand pile.

This thing looks like a large electric drill. After injecting psionic energy, the sharp superalloy drill bit buzzes and can easily penetrate the rock formations. It is an indispensable tool in archaeological excavations.

The young man walked into the tunnel with a digging drill. He visually measured that the tunnel was about two meters wide and about three meters high, and extended thirty degrees above the slope. The more he walked forward, the greater the inclination of the tunnel, and he felt like he was climbing a hill.

On the way, a strange "click" suddenly came from the front of the tunnel. He immediately stopped and remembered the instructor's teachings.

"In the ruins of ancient civilizations, some traps are more terrifying than beasts!"

Facts proved that what the instructor said was not false, and a huge shadow appeared at the end of the slope.

The boy looked up and saw the searchlight dispelling the shadows. What appeared before him was a huge stone ball, which rolled down with a terrifying roar.

The thought of turning around and running flashed through, and he immediately strangled to death in his mind!

This is a stupid decision!

I can't run to beat the accelerated Dashi Ball, so the outcome of doing it will definitely be crushed into a meat pie!

"The radius is about two meters and the weight is about fifty tons..."

While visually judging the big stone ball, he kept injecting his own spiritual energy into the digging drill. The drill bit buzzed and became sharper, and the speed instantly soared to the limit!

The boy raised his digging drill and his heart beat violently. Facing the huge rock hitting the top of Mount Tai, he would definitely be lying if he was not afraid. However, the instructor had warned him countless times, "Fear cannot get rid of difficulties, only courage can create miracles!"

Taking a deep breath and trying his best to remain calm, he bowed slightly, every muscle and nerve in his body was extremely tense, and he held the digging drill with his right hand to sway a standard military swordsmanship starting pose, and stabbed it hard towards the whistling big stone ball!

In the face of adversity, "Man conquers nature" is just a self-comfort. In fact, courage alone cannot get rid of adversity - a little wisdom is required!

The moment he chose the stabbing point, he showed a calmness far beyond his peers. The drill bit was pressed against the lower part of the stone ball and penetrated deeply into the tunnel, forming a forty-five-degree angle with the tunnel. At the same time, he knelt on one knee, lowered his head and held his chest, and struggled to support the drill handle with both hands!

The stone ball was crushed ruthlessly, and the excavation drill was under tremendous pressure. The super alloy skeleton was immediately bent, and the pressure was immediately transferred to him. Blood oozed out of his tight teeth, and pain and perseverance intertwined into a stubborn flame in his eyes.

puff--

The military uniform with a tight arm muscle, the bronze muscles swell and tremble!

puff--

The pressure was transmitted from the arm to the back, and the military uniform cracked along the spine. The back of the well-proportioned muscles was covered with fine sweat beads, presenting a delicate and tough texture like a bronze sculpture!

Swish-

The big stone ball suddenly bounced up with a super alloy excavation drill as a "springboard", clinging to the tip of the hair, slamming heavily behind it, trembling the ground, and then continued to roll along the slope, and the roar gradually faded away...

The boy stood up, threw down the digging drill and ran forward!

It's not time to relax your vigilance now.

The big stone ball is obviously a mechanism. Since that is the case, who can guarantee that there is no second stone ball and the third stone ball will follow?

The road to turning back has been blocked by the first stone ball, and there is still a glimmer of hope to go against the trend!

The above thought passed through the boy's mind like lightning. In a flash, he rushed to the end of the slope. In front of him was a flat underground hall, with no traps.

He breathed a little relieved, adjusted the power of the mine lamp to the maximum, and carefully observed the surroundings.

The mine lamp is embedded with a microbial radar, and no life signal is scanned within a radius of 50 meters, but an abnormal metal reaction was found behind a rock in the center of the hall.

"Anomaly metal reaction...that is, there is no such metal in the periodic table of elements that have been discovered at present?"

The boy walked around the back of the rock, and the mine lights were focused, and a human-shaped skeleton sitting cross-legged appeared, which scared him to take two steps back.

After a long time, he plucked up the courage to walk to the skeleton and observed carefully, and found that this was not a human skeleton.

That's right, the skeleton looks like a human, but behind it is a pair of organs that are definitely not human - a pair of skeleton wings!

"Is this strange skeleton shape a legendary angel?"

Curiosity prompted him to approach the skeleton and found that the surface of the bones was soaked with an enamel, white and delicate, with a shiny and smooth luster, emitting a peaceful and peaceful light in the darkness, which contrasted with the skeleton's own horror image, and there was an indescribable sense of weirdness.

The closer you get to the skeleton, the stronger the abnormal metal detection reaction detected by the radar. This reaction comes from the same object held by the skeleton's hands.

He was holding a string of metal rosary covered with complex patterns in his left hand. The pattern could not be said to be a text or a picture, which made him dizzy.

I held an octagonal iron plate in my right hand, which was pitch black and thick, with a quaint feeling. The shape was much simpler than the string of rosary.

Suddenly, a sound came from the boy's mind.

"Left hand or right hand..."

"Ah? Who is talking to me!"

"Buddhist Sect or Taoist Sect..."

"Who, who!" The young man quickly retreated and stared at the skeleton alertly, "You, are you still alive?"

"Left hand...or right hand...Buddhist sect...or Taoist sect..."

"Previous, senior, I don't understand what you mean. I accidentally broke in. I had no malicious intentions!"

"Left hand... or right hand... Buddha sect... or Dao sect..."

"It seems you really only say this. Is it a choice for me?" He gritted his teeth, walked to the skeleton with his teeth, and looked back and forth on the objects he held in both hands. After hesitating for a moment, he pointed to his right hand, "I'll choose this!"

Compared to that rosary, the iron card appears simpler, and simple things are usually safer.

"The right hand...Dao Sect...God will...is so...being reborn in the Pure Land..."

The boy said in surprise: "Senior, you will say something else!"

Before he finished speaking, the winged skeleton suddenly radiated golden light, which made him hurriedly cover his eyes.

When the light in the hall returned to normal, the winged skeleton had disappeared out of thin air, and an octagonal iron plate was left on the ground.

"Senior?Senior?" The boy grabbed his hair and couldn't figure out what was going on. He simply didn't bother to think too much, bowed deeply to the place where the winged skeleton sat, bent down and picked up the iron plate.

The iron plate was smooth without a single burr, but he felt a stinging pain, his fingers were inexplicably cut, and blood gushed out of the wound and then absorbed by the iron plate.

At the same time, a chill passed into his body through the iron plate, and he immediately fainted.

I don't know how long it took, but the boy woke up from his coma and looked down at the octagonal iron plate that was still holding tightly in his palm. His eyes were full of confusion, and all the memories related to the mysterious skeleton in his mind had disappeared.

"What's going on...how could I faint here."

"Forget it, let's leave this strange hole first."

The boy turned around and walked towards the way he came, successfully returning to the place where he had fallen down before.

A ray of sunlight shot in through the landslide hole, and the roar of digging drills came from outside. The sound was often very noisy, but now it made him feel extremely friendly.

The boy raised his mouth, held the iron plate of unknown origin, and walked towards the sunshine.
