Looking around, this was clearly an underground cave. The believer in front of him had long disappeared. There was a stone staircase in front that extended downward to an unknown place. Torches of unknown material were burning on both sides of the passage. The strange brown and yellow fireflies dyed the passage an inexplicable color. Lu Qingzhou suppressed his uneasiness and walked down the stone steps.
There is no concept of time in the confined space, and I don't know how long I have walked or how deep I have gone. Suddenly, my eyes brightened. At the end of the stone steps was an underground hall covering an area of about ten thousand square meters. There were hundreds of depressing faceless statues all over the cave hall. At the end of the hall was an altar. The follower with half a stone face was kneeling in the middle, leading dozens of followers of the Lotus Mother of No Life, wearing red robes, prostrating themselves on the ground, reciting doctrines and kneeling to worship the statue of the Lotus Mother of No Life in the middle.
Lu Qingzhou passed through the group of faceless stone statues and came to the altar. With trembling hands, he raised his long knife and pointed it at the believers, "Where is my father? Let my father come out and see me."
When the stone statue-faced member heard Lü Qingzhou's question, he slowly stood up and took off his mask to reveal another face that was not petrified. Lü Qingzhou's pupils were shocked when he saw the full appearance of this person. It turned out to be the county lord Wu Youde who had not appeared in the county for a long time! Dozens of members behind Wu Youde took off their masks one after another. They were all county officials! The county magistrate, the chief clerk, the schoolmaster, the head of the police, etc., but these people had dull expressions and empty eyes!
Wu Youde looked at Lv Qingzhou under the altar with a grim look on his face, and said indifferently: "Donor Lv Jin's soul has returned to the netherworld of the Immortal Lotus Mother. The female donor held me hostage and blasphemed my religion. Do you know your sin?"
