Chapter 401: Found the target! It’s getting weirder!(1/3)
He said: "If you think about it carefully, on the first floor, there is an incense burner, a futon, and a merit box."
"Obviously, the first floor is for ordinary believers to worship and pray."
"I don't believe in gods and Buddhas, so I rarely go to temples or Taoist temples, so I just ignored this."
"Now that I see this statue, I suddenly realize that something is wrong."
"Normally speaking, when believers pray and worship, they must pray to the idol of their faith, hoping to communicate with the gods through the idol."
"But on the first floor, there is everything, but there are no statues of gods!"
"On the fourth floor, there is no incense burner or fireworks, but there are statues of gods!"
"So you don't think this is strange? Why are there no statues of gods on the first floor?"
Sishe heard Shen Lian's reminder, thought about it carefully, and her eyes suddenly lit up: "That's really the case."
"Young Master, I once accompanied my family to a temple. After entering the gate, what I faced was the Buddha statue."
"And the Taoist temple is also facing the Sanqing Temple, so that all believers can see where to worship at a glance."
"So this Beidou Temple, there is no statue of gods, it is indeed... very strange."
The more Si She thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
If there is no idol of God, what can be used for believers to kneel down and worship?
As for believers, they really knelt down and worshiped the gods regardless of whether they had statues or not, and even contributed money for incense.
This is really weird.
Shen Lian looked at the statue in front of him.
He felt that normally, this statue should be on the first floor.
But he happened to be on the fourth floor.
Why?
Moreover, there are several futons placed in front of the statue on the fourth floor.
Obviously someone is praying here.
Can believers come to the fourth floor at will?
Don’t you think it’s scary when believers run to the third floor?
Shen Lian suspected that those believers could reach the second floor and browse books, but they would not have the chance to reach the third floor.
Let alone the fourth floor.
So, who are these futons for?
Beidou Temple staff?
Or is it some specific special people?
There are too few clues to determine.
Shen Lian took a deep breath and glanced at Tianji from the corner of his eye.
Tianji was seen staring at the statue of Lady Beidou at this moment, not knowing what he was thinking.
He didn't bother Tianji, nor did he ask.
Instead, he walked around the fourth floor minding his own business.
The space on the fourth floor is no smaller than that on the third floor, but there is nothing here.
Except for a statue of a god and some futons, there was nothing there.
This makes the fourth floor seem too empty.
Shen Lian recalled the floors he passed.
He found that except for the second floor, which was full of books, the rest of the floors were empty.
There are tables, merit boxes, incense burners, and futons on the first floor, but compared to such a large space, it only takes up less than 10% of the area.
Still small is a bit too much.
On the third floor, there are only some paintings hanging on the walls, but other than that, it is empty.
The fourth floor is what you see in front of you.
"It will definitely not be easy to build the Beidou Tower."
"But there is nothing in such a Beidou Tower. It is almost empty. It really doesn't make sense."
"If you want to squeeze in, two floors of these things are enough."
"But the Beidou Tower has five floors."
Why?
Shen Lian was thinking, why build five floors?
Does it have any moral meaning?
Or do you just want to maintain the scene?
It's just that Beidou Temple is a false belief, and there is not enough stuff to fill it, so it is empty?
But this doesn’t make sense.
Isn’t it easy to find something to fill it with?
Build some furniture, use some rooms as quiet rooms, etc. It’s very stylish.
Just go to a temple or Taoist temple and copy it.
So, there shouldn't be enough stuff to fill it.
But they don't want to do it.
Do you think it's unnecessary and no one will come to check, or do you think someone won't allow it?
Shen Lian's active brain was running at high speed again.
And this time, he had more on his mind.
In fact, there are abnormalities everywhere in this Beidou Tower, and something is wrong everywhere.
With his extremely active brain, he really couldn't stop even if he wanted to.
Shen Lian took a deep breath and temporarily suppressed those thoughts. He looked at the fourth floor again to make sure there were no omissions, and looked towards the stairs.
"Let's go to the fifth floor."
This tower only has five floors, so the fifth floor is the highest floor.
The first four floors are each more strange than the last.
What will happen to the fifth floor?
Shen Lian became really curious.
He went straight up the stairs.
Sishe looked at Tianji and said, "Let's go."
After hearing this, Tianji took his eyes back from the statue of Beidou Empress.
She nodded silently, seeming to be even more taciturn than before.
This time, even Si She sensed that something was wrong with Tianji.
But seeing that the young master didn't say anything, he didn't say anything, but stared at Tianji more closely.
The three of them climbed the stairs and soon reached the fifth floor.
When he reached the fifth floor, Qin Wenyuan raised his eyebrows slightly.
"This is?"
Si She was also a little surprised.
Including Tianji, everyone frowned.
Because when they first arrived on the fifth floor, they found a door.
Locked door!
From the first to the fourth floor, no door was found.
Therefore, a door appeared on the fifth floor, and it was locked.
This discovery immediately made Qin Wenyuan smile.
Shen Lian raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said with a smile: "Interesting, it seems that these five floors are different from the other floors. Maybe... there will be unexpected surprises."
The fifth floor of Beidou Tower.
As soon as you go up the stairs, you will see a closed and locked door.
