Six hundred and twenty-one is it a man or a monster?
"What's so strange about that, before humans ruled the earth, it wasn't uncommon to treat people as food. Li Huan said calmly: "Besides, the Aztec civilization originally had traditions such as human sacrifice, skinning, and heart digging...... It's not surprising that this kind of thing is happening on their turf. ”
Human beings have ruled the earth for tens of thousands of years, standing at the absolute top of the biological chain, and have long been accustomed to having the power of life and death over any living being. But when they heard that there was something that used human beings as food, everyone couldn't help but stand upside down. It's terrifying, what kind of creature has such terrible habits?
"Scatter around and look for it again!" Li Huan moved the muzzle of the gun, put down the corpse, and said firmly: "There must be a mechanism here, no matter what drags these corpses here, they can't just disappear! These things are too dangerous, whether it's for ourselves, or careless, for the sake of the earth, we can't let the cannibalistic things spread out!" Look for them in pairs, look along the walls, no matter what creatures or monsters killed them, since they were put here, it means that they must have gathered here, there is definitely a way!"
"Boss, are we going to face a man-eating monster?" Li Ang had a bitter face: "Hey, you can find it if you say it...... Everyone load the bullets, turn on the fluorescent indicator light on your body, and if you see anything that moves except our people, don't hesitate to shoot immediately!"
Everyone patted on the shoulder, and the fluorescent indicator light hanging on the shoulder lit up, which was specially used to indicate the direction of their own people in the dark environment. After lighting up the fluorescence, Li Ang and the others began to search around the wall, and Li Huan walked to the pillar in the middle and carefully observed the support of this "One Pillar Optimus".
At first, Li Huan thought it was a stone pillar.
But when he looked closer, he realized that he was wrong, it was not a stone pillar, but a large, smooth wooden pillar. This is cold to the wooden tentacles, and under the strong flashlight, it is blood red. You can't be wrong, this is a dragon's blood tree that grows endemic to Central America. It's just that this dragon's blood wood is too big, the whole one is more than twenty meters long, and in modern times, this wood alone is probably worth tens of millions of dollars.
On the dragon's blood, four identical patterns are carved. The motif of the carving is a woman - well, the goddess, in those days, everything that could be carved had to be a symbol of deification. But this goddess is a goddess who has had her head cut off.
Why carve a goddess with a severed head?
After rummaging through the information of the Aztec gods on the virtual screen, Li Huan suddenly realized that this was really a goddess, the Aztec moon goddess. In Aztec lore, the moon goddess was twice decapitated and was the image of a rebel and a loser, but in the statue, the moon goddess faced death with a serene and detached look.
The carving shows the goddess with feathers on her head, earrings, and a golden bell on her face. Her head was cut off and her limbs severed, revealing the tragic fate of the rebels, while the statue was surrounded by elaborate and ornate decorations. She wears snake bracelets on her limbs, skull accessories around her waist, and the space behind her is filled with ornaments that symbolize death. The depiction of the face and torso of the work is realistic and detailed, so that the wood seems to become skin with body temperature, and the dead goddess still seems to be alive.
Li Huan even asked, there was a strong smell of blood on the carving.
"Hell, is there really any god possessed? Where did you get such a heavy smell of blood......" Although there is a smell of blood in this hall, the smell is very light, and the smell of blood coming from dragon's blood wood is ten times stronger than the smell here. Li Huan subconsciously looked closer, and then discovered the reason - it turned out that in each carving, the goddess's severed head had its mouth open, and there were thin holes in its mouth. Outside the hole, it has dried up,
Dark red liquid.
Li Huan stretched out his hand and tried it, this is blood!
If you look closely, there are many marks of hard objects scratching on the ground of this column, and they are all new marks......
"I understand!" Li Huan suddenly realized: "This pillar is probably connected to a certain place in the pyramid, and after seeing blood on the pyramid, the blood flows down this pillar, stimulating the monsters that have been hiding in the ground, and then the monsters pour out! After they killed all the people on the pyramid, they returned to the ground again, and put the corpses here as reserve food! A living trap, another living trap, the Aztecs are the most powerful geniuses I have ever seen in this regard......
This is a setting beyond the imagination of the people of that era, first set up the forbidden spirit zone, pull everyone to the same level, and then set up the death forest trap, all kinds of terrorists in the plant kingdom passively guard the pyramid, once someone approaches the pyramid, there is any battle, the Aztecs will summon the monsters hidden in the ground to help fight, the idea of this trap can be put into the modern era, can completely explode a lot of "experts".
The most terrifying thing is that they set traps with the help of nature, and there is no trap jamming, gear rust and the like. As long as this rainforest remains, the guardian of the pyramid will always exist.
Li Huan was sighing at the ingenuity of this trap, and Li Ang over there made a new discovery: "Boss, we found a door!"
"I'll take a look!" Li Huan hurriedly walked over.
In a corner near the wall, Li Ang and a few others were squatting on the ground, carefully cleaning up the debris on the ground, and some of them were squatting on the ground, and the hollow sound came from the place where he was beating, and it was obvious that there was a huge hole under the ground.
By the time Li Huan walked in, everyone had already cleaned up the ground.
On the ground, two large stone slabs with stone carvings are revealed, and there are pull rings at both ends of the stone slabs. Li Huan personally stepped forward and knocked on the slate, and the muffled sound of "dong dong dong" came, indicating that there was indeed space underneath. Li Huan was secretly happy in his heart, that's right, this is the place he is looking for, and this may be the secret of the Aztecs.
Li Huan tried to pull the pull ring.
"Boss, we're already so deep underground, we can't go to hell down here, right?" Rodman drew a cross on his chest: "These Aztecs are simply terrible, how did they build such a huge project hundreds of years ago? How the pyramids on the ground were built have been debated for almost a hundred years, and there is such a huge project underground, I don't dare to think what kind of world this will be down here, will we release the demons in hell?" Supposedly, the Aztecs killed so many people......"
"If you can't speak, don't speak! Be careful when you open it. Li Ang himself carried the stone slab on the other side, beckoned and pointed to the stone slab: "Whatever you see coming out of it, make me into a sieve." ”
The two bodyguards loaded their guns and aimed at the opening of the stone slab, and Li Huan and the two of them pulled the stone ring with all their might, lifting the two stone slabs and throwing them aside.
There was a click, a crisp sound, and Li Huan only felt a slight shake under his feet.
"Don't move!" Li Huan suddenly waved his hand: "Don't move anyone!"
"What sound, it seems to be a ...... under your feet" Li Ang squatted down close to the ground, and gently stroked the dust under the stone slab with his hand, revealing a stone background like a cloud pattern, he poked it with his hand and said curiously: "What, the color is quite beautiful......
"Damn, it's mica!" Li Huan shouted: "Don't move, don't move, slowly withdraw!"
It's too late, and it's not the first time Li Huan has been on mica.
It's very thin, almost
Cannot be load-bearing.
Li Huan only felt that his body was light, and he suddenly sank, and the ground of the cave collapsed entirely. Everyone only felt a wave of corrupt air rushing to their faces, and the air underground didn't know how long it had been sealed, and it was almost suffocating to breathe. In the process of falling, there were suddenly a lot of rope-like things around, and everyone subconsciously grabbed around, grabbed the rope-like thing and didn't let go, and the huge friction made many people cry in pain.
Li Huan also grabbed a "rope" in time and hung himself in mid-air.
Just now, the ground suddenly collapsed, Li Huan was also startled, and when he stopped the fall of his figure, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked around.
It turned out that it was not a rope that was grasped, but the roots of some plants hanging down from above. Everyone was in a huge underground cavern, and beside Li Huan, there were other people hanging from different heights, and everyone was holding a root system tightly in their hands and hanging in the air, which was extremely weird.
In the process of falling, Rodman's strong flashlight got out of his hand and fell straight to the bottom of the hole, and the pillar of light hit dozens of meters away, plunging into the deep darkness - in the pillar of light extending out from a gray ground, at the end of the pillar of light, there was a hideous thing, the whole body was full of thorns, extremely twisted, and it was chilling at a glance!
"Boss, are we going to hell!" shouted Rodman.
"Don't move!" Li Huan shouted, "Who has the flare?"
His own flares had long been depleted, and in the face of such a large space, a few strong flashlights did not work at all. The shadow illuminated by the flashlight pillar was too scary, and the underground cavity was pitch black, and even the night vision mode of the sub-machine was not good. Not to mention the infrared observation mode, looking down from above, it is a deep blue, and you must first see what is below.
"Boss, I still have a few more!" Li Ang shouted, "Do you want to fight now?"
"Hit!" Li Huan shouted.
Burst!
After a muffled sound, a bright flare dispelled the darkness and illuminated the gloomy world.
Li Huan only glanced at it, no wonder the infrared observation mode failed.
It's a space with gray tones, gray earth, gray trees, gray stones, gray plants....everything is gray. The flare slowly fell from the air in a melodious manner, and the first thing everyone could see was what the flashlight pillar was referring to - it was not a twisted creature, but a tree with a very strange shape. It's gray all over, and in the light of the flares, its skin even glows like a metallic hue......
What kind of ghost tree is this......
"Look over there!" Suddenly a bodyguard shouted, waving in the northeast direction: "What kind of monster is that!"
Monster! Everyone chuckled in their hearts, and Li Huan's heart also jumped a few times, although when Li Huan comforted everyone, he said that the head was the Tao, this is the forbidden spirit area, and there can't be any too terrifying creatures, but it would be a lie to say that he didn't hang in his heart at all. The skinheads on the pyramid are extremely powerful, and the creatures that can wipe them all out in just one night are certainly not easy to mess with.
The crowd looked in the direction pointed by the bodyguard.
The darkness was so deep that the flares had dropped more than half the distance by this time, and the light was no longer as dazzling as before. At the beginning, everyone focused on the "hideous shadow" illuminated by the strong flashlight, and missed a good opportunity to look at the overall situation. At this time, looking in that direction, it seemed that something was indeed illuminated in the darkness, and a silhouette was faintly revealed.
"It's a man! How can there be such a tall man! Oh my God!"
"No, it's not a human, it's a monster!
