Chapter 49: The Headless Statue
Suddenly, a crack opened in the middle of the altar, and the oval altar instantly turned into two semicircles and fell to both sides, I didn't stand firmly, my hands swung a few times in the air, and I saw that I was going to fall headfirst from a height of four meters, and screamed, so scared that even my hair was sweaty, but fortunately I was supported by cold wood, so we stood on the inclined altar, no one dared to move, for fear that one would accidentally slide down from above.
Lu Laojiu had already fallen down from the sacrificial platform, but fortunately he was dragged by the fat uncle and dragged him up, he calmed down: "Look at the battle, it won't be the ghost in the altar who ran out, right?" ”
My dad couldn't stand his timidity, looked at the altar on the sacrificial table opposite and said, "That's just an ancient superstitious saying, used to seal the soul, just like human sacrifice, in fact, it's an empty altar, it's really serious!" ”
Lu Laojiu loves face so much, he must find some face: "Take it seriously? Then you say, why did those soul bottles suddenly collapse! ”
"Someone must be pretending to be here." As soon as Dad's words fell, he suddenly stared at the big crack in the sacrificial platform and said, "Look at it! There's so much space down there! ”
Lu Laojiu patted his knees, turned his head and said, "Oh, my God, it seems that the space is not small, and there is still a passage!" How cautious this tomb owner is! I'm afraid that others will fight him or know what his secrets are, this way over is a Gu worm and a dried corpse, either stagnant water or a bad baby, making such a big maze does not stop, there is actually a layer of underground palace under the underground palace!! ”
Han Ye took a flashlight and shone it below, his expression was very uncomfortable, and he guessed: "There are some altars with charms pasted below, according to the thinking of the ancients, they built a sacrificial platform on it, could it be to suppress the undead?" ”
Lu Laojiu dodged the flashlight, "I'll take a look." He suddenly stretched his head down and was grabbed by the fat uncle, "What are you doing!" Beware of falling and falling to your death! Then he stuck his head out, as if he had discovered a new continent, "Eh! And the murals! This dungeon is so tight, it is estimated that the treasures in it must be indispensable! ”
The fat uncle knew that this kid was a troublemaker, and pointed at him and said: "Don't talk nonsense, I can warn you, this underground palace is not within the scope of our expectations, the devil knows what space it leads to, you kid don't put your life in it for this money!" ”
"I said he's fat! What's wrong with you today! Are you still afraid of this? Lu Laojiu asked unwillingly.
The fat uncle seemed to see the signs of this underground palace, and when he saw that Lu Laojiu was guilty of that greed again, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Don't talk nonsense!" Do you listen to my words or not! ”
Without waiting for him to speak, Han Ye first covered his mouth and persuaded: "Do the right thing first, do the right thing first." ”
The fat uncle took a flashlight on the wall under the crack, I held on to the cold wood and steadied a lot, at least it would not fall, and dragged him two steps forward, just in time to see the scene of the mural, maybe this place has been closed, this mural is very well preserved, because of the angle, we can't see this side under our feet, so we can only see half of the mural on the opposite side.
The big black fat pointed down and said, "Hey! You see, aren't the two green hairs on the mural the two that Gu Ling just killed! ”
I was on the far right, and he and my dad were on the left, so we looked at it in different order, and what I saw was a baby, but instead of legs, he had a tail!!
I continued to look to the left, and the child was locked in an iron cage, surrounded by many similar companions, and a pair of hands threw a human head, arm, and thigh at them, apparently feeding them human blood every day.
The group of babies grew larger and larger, their heads leaving their bodies and flying in the air, scrambling to bite into the food.
And the green hair that the big black fat saw was what they looked like when they grew up, almost exactly the same as the two green hairs that had just died, except that the lower body was not a skeleton, but a tail, and the tail was thicker than that of a snake, and I couldn't tell what kind of tail it was.
These scenes are so realistic that I was almost speechless in surprise, is there really such a person? Uncle Fat took the flashlight and shone it again, and there were some dense words, but unfortunately the distance was too far, these words were the same as ghost drawings, and I didn't recognize one after reading it for a long time.
"What kind of text is this, how come I've never seen it?" Dad is an expert in ancient literature, and he doesn't even know him, let alone me.
Big Black Fat guessed: "Could it be that the distance is too far to see clearly?" ”
Dad shook his head: "No, I haven't seen these words at all." ”
"Is this still a country that has not appeared in history?" I guessed.
Dad couldn't wait to jump down and study it immediately, staring at the pill for a long time, "It's not impossible, it's a pity that the mural can only be seen, I don't know what kind of pill it is holding in its hand!" ”
I pursed my lips and disagreed: "What kind of medicine can be given to that kind of person!" It is estimated that it is either a Gu medicine or a poison! ”
"Weiwei, you wait up there, Dad go down and take a look."
I really don't understand, he can't wait to use the headless god statue to suppress another underground palace, so weird, he also wants to see it!
"Dad! What's there to see! What if you can't get up after going down! ”
"No! Now that you've found it! I have to figure it out! His attitude was very resolute, but I became more and more confused about him, "Dad, what are you looking for!" "What is it that makes him willing to risk his life to find it?
For more than ten years, he told me every time that he was looking for something, but he never allowed me to ask.
"Don't worry about what you shouldn't have! I'll be up right away. Saying that, he took out the rope from his backpack and began to tie it to the stone pier of the altar, I stopped him and said, "It's too dangerous down there, I don't agree!" ”
The fat uncle grabbed me from behind and shook his head at me.
But that's my own father! How can I rest assured that he and the big black fat two people will go down, "I'll go down with you!" ”
He said to me, "You stay up there and take care of each other." ”
My eyes glanced at Leng Mu, hoping that he could protect my father, but he looked at the bottom of the altar with a solemn expression, "What's wrong?" I asked.
"Two people less." He said.
Between the lightning and flint, I suddenly remembered Lu Laojiu and Han Ye, I hadn't heard them talk for a long time, and when I turned around, I found that my dad was dragging the rope and crawling down, it seemed that the big black fat had already gone down first, "Dad! "I didn't expect them to move so quickly.
Suddenly, they pulled the rope down the stone pier, and there was a shaking under my feet, and I had a premonition in my heart, so I quickly threw my father's backpack underneath, and sure enough, the cracked altar is now beginning to close, and if it goes on like this, won't my dad be buried under the altar? Reflexively shouted: "Cold wood!" "I have to go and beg for cold wood now, maybe he will have a way, even if I was so anxious that I cried, but he stood there indifferent, and said to me: "He did it himself." ”
There was a burst of fire in my heart, and the heat rushed to my brain, and I was so angry that I almost fainted, "Why do you save everyone!" I just won't save my dad! ”
