Chapter 178: Luring the Wolf into the House

Zhou Yi stared at the bottom of the bottle, he just found that there was a worm in it, but it was not black, but red, and all the bristles around his neck exploded.

Cheng Zhi was quite clever, and hurriedly handed over a steel knife, Zhou Yi took the steel knife, knocked on the sulfuric acid bottle, just such a slight movement, it had already alarmed the red insect, its bristles were all shaking constantly, and then began to ramble inside the sulfuric acid bottle.

The bottle kept shaking, as if it was going to be dumped in the next moment, the fat man also came over to help hold the bottle, Zhou Yi quickly sped up his movements, and directly pried the bottle up with a steel knife, and Cheng Zhi took the bottle cap and closed it directly.

The bug seemed to be crazy, and the person who rushed into the bottle was already carrying an afterimage, and he couldn't see the movement clearly.

The fat man wiped the sweat from his forehead, opened the storage box and quickly found the tape, and tied the bottle up and down, left and right.

I don't know if it's because of the lack of oxygen, or if I feel hopeless to escape, the bug gradually quiets down.

The fat man grinned.

"Boss, the bugs are finally honest, this thing seems to be able to sense those black bugs, I don't know if this is the ancestor of the bugs they worship, but this thing can live for so long, it has been locked in the sarcophagus, I don't know how many years, what does it eat and drink?"

Zhou Yi shook his head, and then looked at the sarcophagus, there were no bottles and jars in it, but there were some stones piled up near a corner at the bottom, about a dozen pieces, with different colors.

Without the interference of insects, he could easily sense the warm breath of these stones, and Cheng Zhi looked at it and said.

"This is a spirit stone, this insect actually lives on a spirit stone, but how did the ancients know about it?"

Zhou Yi narrowed his eyes.

It seems that these worlds, whether they are awakened or these strange animals, have awakened or become different because of the spirit stones, and these spirit stones are like batteries, providing energy for these chosen ones.

So, what about the workings of these worlds?

Could it be that these also provide energy, so that each world is constantly refreshed and then operates autonomously?

Shi Dan Dan only said that they designed the process of these worlds, and did not elaborate on the mechanism of the operation of the mission world, it seems that there is a chance to understand it later, after all, knowing this, it is easier to find spirit stones and obtain energy.

Zhou Yi received the sulfuric acid bottle into the storage box, and now the storage box on Zhou Yi's body is quite large, similar to a room of more than ten square meters.

The fat man hurried over.

"What's wrong with the boss?"

Zhou Yi took out the bottle again, and as soon as he took it out, the insects slammed and continued to scurry around in the bottle, as if flying up and down.

With a flip of the hand, the bottle was put away again, and then it was quiet again, as if pressing the pause button.

"Put it away and don't jump around, take it out and start jumping up and down, this is really interesting, is it that entering the storage box is isolated from the outside world, as if the sarcophagus is a confined environment, he can't feel other insects?"

Cheng Zhi stared at the corner of the sarcophagus, his eyes widened instantly, and he hurriedly looked at Zhou Yi.

"Sir, I think this bug seems to be a mother, and usually lives in the sarcophagus, breeding offspring, maybe the black bugs in it are its offspring, this thing is like a queen bee.

When we came in just now, there was no movement in the room, but those black insects crawled over, and then I set fire to the fat man to block the corridor, preventing the insects from coming, and then there was movement in the sarcophagus, I think this red insect is a mother, and I want to protect its cubs. ”

Zhou Yi paused, not to mention that Cheng Zhi seemed to have some truth, there are indeed holes in the edge of the sarcophagus, if small insects can crawl out, but red insects can't do it.

At this time, I don't have time to analyze in such detail, there are so many stone chambers here, they have to be explored, and those insects don't know if there are any more, and they are connected to other stone chambers behind, if they swarm, they will be difficult to deal with.

"It seems to make some sense, okay now go your separate ways, one of you takes two, quickly start searching other stone chambers, block them when you see insects, and see what is in other stone chambers, I went to see the sarcophagus with the Big Dipper before, and I always feel that I seem to have missed something. ”

The fat man and Cheng Zhi hurriedly left, they first went to the next door to pick up people, and then connected each stone chamber with a wooden ladder.

The fat man and Cheng Zhi were more cautious, and they were not grouped, but went to check together, in fact, this has a higher safety factor, and the targeted viewing speed is not slow.

Zhou Yi put away these spirit stones in the sarcophagus, and every time he picked them up, he could feel that the energy in the spirit stones was very pure, even if he nourished the red bug, it seemed that the loss was negligible.

After checking it, I didn't find any omissions, especially the road blocked by the fat man, which was still very strong, so I walked to the stone room before.

The four slaves had been here for a while just now, and the things didn't move, Zhou Yi glanced at the black and white walls, and his face was still somewhat puzzled.

Such a hidden sinkhole, there are so many caves in it, just this amount of work, if you use primitive tools, hundreds of people will have to work for decades, don't look at the roughness of the sarcophagus, so that Zhou Yi They don't have tools, and it is difficult to process them with simple tools.

Where do people come from?

Could it be that there are some reclusive tribes around?

However, this amount of activity seems to have come to an abrupt halt at a certain time period, everything has stopped, and the bottles and jars in the sarcophagus do not look like things from a period, some new and some old.

As for the stones of the Big Dipper, Zhou Yi picked it up and took a look, these were either spirit stones or stones with special colors, as for the crockpots and bottles, they rustled a little when they were picked up.

When I poured it out, there were some black particles inside, and if I carefully identified it, I could see the traces of rice husks, and it seemed that these were things used for sacrifice.

Zhou Yi stepped back and looked at the black wall.

The stone room used for the memorial, such a black wall, there are no other traces of smoke and fire, you must know that they have only walked back and forth a few times, and the traces of torch burning have been left, how do they dig and illuminate?

Is the sacrifice also in darkness?

And this black wall, which feels a bit like the ashes at the bottom of a pot, and if you carefully identify it, it is burnt ashes, is there something hidden on this stone wall that needs to be deliberately burned?

This sudden idea made Zhou Yi stunned, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense.

He walked directly to the wall, found a knife, scraped it twice on the wall, and when the knife went down, the true color of the stone wall was revealed, and a red mural trace appeared directly.

This kind of discovery made Zhou Yi a little excited, it seems that the analysis is not wrong, there may be something hidden underneath, it is these sacrifices or local clansmen, who do not want future generations to know, so they burned the black wall to cover it.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yi had no scruples, and quickly scraped with a knife, it was easy to scrape off the mural, Zhou Yi took out a bottle of water, and began to pour down along the top of the stone wall, and with the washing of the water, the black ash was easily washed away.

However, the water in the water bottle was gone, Zhou Yi waved his hand, and shouted softly to spray Ye, and then a burst of water washed over, and half of the black stone wall had already shown its original state, and Zhou Yi concocted and cleaned up another white wall.

A narrative mural appeared, and it was no longer a scene of worship, and this time it was painted in several colors.

On the left side of the stone wall is an altar with a huge red bug on it, several times the size of a person, and around the altar there are six small platforms on which six people are lying, and the two circles on the chest are supposed to represent women (⊙⊙).

It seems that six women were sacrificed to the insects.

Men kneeling around him, with black cloth tied around their waists, seemed to gather together, cutting their arms to draw blood, and these jars of blood were also placed on the side of the altar.

Zhou Yi hurriedly walked to the stone wall in the middle, this painting is the people who sacrificed just now, following behind the red bugs, one by one tied to the bugs, and on the opposite side are some black villains, and the red bugs almost bite all the black villains to death.

Zhou Yi squinted his eyes, although the red people used the insects to kill the black people, but the red insects were released, which was to lure the wolf into the house and dig their own graves.
