Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Relief Circle
Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Relief Circle
Entering the cave, Wang Baoshan followed the bead in Jin Ling'er's hand, and found that it was not big, about forty or fifty steps in a square circle, and it was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, like a funnel-shaped terrain structure.
There is nothing else special, the only thing that makes people's scalp tingle is that there are all kinds of bones piled up at the bottom of the cave, and the number is too large to estimate. Maybe it's because of the time of the pile, it's been too long, these bones have already been shattered, and many of the bones have turned black on them.
"Why are there so many bones?"
Presumably because Mochizuki absorbed the yin qi, Wang Baoshan didn't feel how cold he felt after entering the cave.
But at this time, he was standing on top of those bones, and he was inevitably a little scared, and under the thrill, his heart began to wander. My heart was even more puzzled, how did Mochizuki and Jin Ling'er find out about such a gloomy ghost place?
"Huh...... Look at that beast, although it has opened its mind, it has low intelligence and is easily driven by its own nature. It can grow so huge, presumably because of the things down there. ”
"What is it?" Wang Baoshan looked again, but there was nothing but bones!
Jin Ling'er didn't answer, but just raised her foot and stepped on it, and a violent wind shook away.
Wang Baoshan only felt a shock under his feet, as if he had suffered an earthquake, but fortunately he stood firmly, otherwise, he would have fallen to the ground.
The countless bones piled up under his feet were turned into powder after this vibrating wind. With Jin Ling'er as the center, it flew away in all directions, and then rolled back again, gathering together, and finally formed a miserable white bone bead, about the size of an eyeball.
Countless bones instantly turned into a bone bead, revealing the ground below.
"What is this?" After Wang Baoshan and the other remnants of the ashes and dust dispersed, he hurriedly looked at the ground under his feet.
I saw that on the ground, there was a strange relief figure, which was exactly round, with a diameter of about five or six steps. It is carved with a circle of coil lines, a line as thick as a thumb, starting from a dot in the center, and extending to a dot on the periphery. Other than that, there are no other graphics in the coil, which makes people feel weird to watch.
Jin Ling'er looked down at the relief, didn't pay attention to Wang Baoshan's questioning, and directly pulled him to the side, signaling him not to move.
Then she leaped to her feet, dancing in mid-air, and settling her feet on each of the two dots on the relief. After ordering, Jin Ling'er snorted, as if she had been hit by some huge force, and was suddenly shocked out of the scope of the relief, and flew down to the stone wall twenty steps away.
Fortunately, she kicked out and stepped on the stone wall before she was about to hit the stone wall, which dissolved the buffer force, otherwise she would have been knocked into a lot.
But Rao is like this, Jin Ling'er was in a hurry for a while, and then she stabilized her figure in embarrassment.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, Wang Baoshan didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly ran over, wanting to help Jin Ling'er.
"No, I don't. Jin Ling'er stopped him, sorted out the clothes around him, and came to the relief again.
Wang Baoshan wanted to help her, but she didn't succeed, and she didn't feel a little embarrassed.
Jin Ling'er didn't pay attention to him, but glanced at the Mochizuki Guqin floating in the air, and said, "Sister Mochizuki, what do you see?"
"Sister Ling'er, I don't think this is an ordinary magic circle. Next to the Mochizuki Guqin, Mochizuki emerged.
"Well, I just tested it just now, and I know that the power of the backlash is so strong. ”
"In my opinion, it can't be solved by brute force, this magic circle seems to be extremely simple, and it is no different. But in fact, it's exquisite, extraordinary!"
"Then do you have a way to break the formation?" Jin Ling'er heard Mochizuki say this, and hurriedly asked.
"No......" Mochizuki shook his head, indicating no.
"How is that good?" Jin Ling'er saw that she didn't, and was a little helpless for a while.
Wang Baoshan on the side, although he couldn't understand the words of the two of them, he didn't understand what magic circle was. But I also realized the extraordinary nature of this relief and wanted to see what it was.
"Huh......" When he looked at it carefully for a while, he found that the relief circle had gradually changed.
The lines, which used to resemble dead things, came to life, and they were still slowly spinning, and they were turning faster and faster. Along with the two dots in different positions, there seems to be the same coil, which is also spinning rapidly.
As they rotated rapidly, a black mist erupted over the entire relief array. In the haze, the black mist filled the air, and then condensed into a barrier, standing in the middle of the circle. The fly-like dotted strokes on the barrier emerge, densely packed and countless.
"This is a tadpole ......" Wang Baoshan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw it. But before he could react, the black mist wrapped in tadpole words began to shrink rapidly, becoming smaller and smaller, and finally changed into a small black orb.
After a while, the relief circle returned to normal, the black fog dissipated, and everything was back to normal. Above the circle, the bead about the size of a fish's eye, pitch black and round, like a black pearl, was quietly hovering above the circle.
When Wang Baoshan saw countless tadpole-shaped words emerging from the black fog just now, he immediately remembered the ancient book "The Royal Road". The words in the book are exactly the same as these words, and they must have a lot to do with it.
But just as he wanted to see more of the contents, the words dissipated and turned into the black orb.
"Whoosh......"
Maybe it was the black bead that sensed Wang Baoshan's thoughts, and it flew out directly and rushed towards him.
"Ah......h
With a scream of horror, the black orb, in an instant, burrowed into his forehead and disappeared.
"Childe, what's wrong?"
"Idiot, what are you crazy about?"
Mochizuki and Jin Ling'er spoke almost at the same time, and when Wang Baoshan heard it, he sobered up as if he had been beaten up.
He suddenly found himself lying on the edge of the relief circle for some reason, and his right hand was resting on the dot on the edge of the circle. And everything around him, just like just now, except for his own change of position, everything else is still in place.
Mochizuki and Jin Ling'er had already come to his side at this time, and they were all looking at him with puzzled faces.
Could it be that everything that happened just now was an illusion?
Wang Baoshan hurriedly got up, reached out and touched his forehead, but found that everything was normal on his forehead, and there was nothing unusual. He calmed down again, wanting to feel his head and the rest of his body. Except for some shock, my spirit was a little dazed, but I just felt a little hungry, but there was no other discomfort.
"Just now...... Didn't you see it?" Wang Baoshan couldn't believe what he was seeing, thought about it, and asked.
"What do you see? I just heard your ghost scream..."Jin Ling'er saw him touch his forehead, and also went over to touch it, and said, "It's not hot!"
Wang Baoshan didn't seem to see what had just happened, and told them what had happened to him.
After hearing this, Jin Ling'er was also greatly puzzled and surprised, saying that he might have seen a hallucination just now, and suddenly went crazy, lost the piano case, and ran to the edge of the magic circle.
Mochizuki said: "According to what Childe said, the tadpole script that appeared on this magic circle is very likely to be a kind of writing, according to legend, the origin is unknown, almost no one can know it, and I can't remember the specific situation for a while." If it really has something to do with that "Royal Road", has Childe ever seen the content?"
Wang Baoshan shook his head and said, "I don't know how I knew Tadpole Wen, but I got this book before, and when I looked at it, I was attracted by the things recorded in it." Before I could take a closer look, they vanished and turned into a black bead. ”
After he finished speaking, he took out a book from his arms, which was the "Royal Road".
But as soon as I took it out, the papyrus book of the book "The Royal Road" was wet with water at some point. Most of the pages were stained, and the original handwriting was a little blurry.
Wang Baoshan used his sleeves to rub the water stains on the book regretfully, and was a little distressed.
Jin Ling'er and Mochizuki came over to look at this "Royal Road", and they both said that they couldn't understand it, saying that they didn't know the tadpole text on it.
"Oh!" the two women were surprised to see the cherishment on his face.
Jin Ling'er said: "The bead you said is also very special, I don't know what it is, it actually got into your head, what is wrong with you?"
"No, I don't feel anything, I just feel hungry!" Wang Baoshan shook his head, and when he said the back, he seemed to be a little embarrassed.
"You know when it's time to eat. After Jin Ling'er finished speaking, she counted him down again.
"I haven't eaten since last night, do you say I'm hungry?" I didn't feel hungry just now, but now that I'm hungry, Wang Baoshan is really hungry. He smiled wryly, touching the back of his head with one hand and his stomach with the other.
"The circle is gone......" Suddenly, Mochizuki pointed to the relief array, his face incredulous.
Wang Baoshan hurriedly went to look and found that the woodcutter that was originally pinned to his waist fell in the center of the circle at some point.
The lines and lines on the original relief circle are slowly gathering on the top of the woodcutter, and gradually re-evolve into a three-inch mini circle, which is exactly the same as the previous figure.
"What's going on?" Wang Baoshan was afraid that something would happen to his woodcutter, so he hurriedly ran over and picked up the woodcutter. I found that the magic circle on the knife surface had retreated and turned into a rust, but I couldn't see anything abnormal.
"Your woodcutter seems to be really extraordinary, and after absorbing this formation, it is really unbelievable that it is imprinted on yourself!" Jin Ling'er came over to take a look, but she couldn't see anything.
Mochizuki also came over to take a look, and then, snorting, said, "The yin qi here has completely disappeared now, presumably because of the magic circle here!"
