Chapter 167: Wedding and Funeral
A huge wave of sound roared, making people's eardrums tingle, and for a moment, Ma Dai only felt as if he was suddenly in the stands of the green field, and the mountains roared and the tsunami seemed to overturn the whole sky.
Lu Ming had already reached out and opened the heavy wooden door, and the creaking sound of the wooden door was immediately drowned out in the deafening shouts. After a long time, the sound finally stopped slowly, Lu Ming seemed to suddenly remember something, glanced back at Yan Lin, and said softly: "I will take you away with me, no one can hurt you." ”
Lu Ming's eyes were so firm, although his voice was calm, it made Yan Lin's heart tremble suddenly, but he still didn't know how to get along with Lu Ming, and his heart was complicated and unspeakable, so he had to turn his head in a panic and not make a sound.
Bang!
The heavy wooden door was closed again, and most of the noisy sounds outside were also shut out, and the inside of the stone house became unusually quiet. "Roar-" As soon as Lu Ming closed the heavy wooden door, there was an unfriendly shout from the Vimo people outside, Ma Dai's face was very anxious, and he looked at Yan Lin and said: "The Vimo people warned him, let him stay quietly in the house, otherwise he will be killed!" ”
"Uh-uh-" As soon as Ma Dai finished speaking, two uh-uh screams rang out outside, as if the Vimo man's neck had been cut by a sharp weapon, and two low cries of pain before he died. Then there were two thumps, apparently the bodies of two tall, burly Vimo men falling to the ground.
Ma Dai wailed in despair: "It's over, he really did it!" I'm sure it won't be long before countless vicious Vimo people rush in and kill all three of us. ”
"Ma Dai! Do you have a little backbone, the big deal is death, where did so much nonsense come from! I don't know if you're still a man or not! Chu Qing sneered and drank Ma Dai's words, his expression extremely contemptuous. Since Lu Ming has already started to kill, there is no need to think about the consequences, Chu Qing has already taken out the well-hidden sharp needles from his waist, and put them into the card slot of the organ bracer one by one, carefully confirming that they can be launched at any time, and it seems that he is ready to fight hard.
Ma Dai muttered a few words in a low voice, not knowing whether to distinguish or lament.
But what made Ma Dai and the three of them strange was that after the screams of the two Vimo people sounded outside, for a long time, there was no movement at all, only the neat shouts from afar.
No one came?
Chu Qing and Yan Lin glanced at each other, and they couldn't help but wonder.
After waiting for a while, it was still quiet outside the door, Chu Qing was really a little unsettled by this strange calm, looked at Yan Lin and said, "Do we really have to wait like this?" ”
Yan Lin couldn't help but worry about Lu Ming's situation for a long time, glanced at the heavy wooden door that was tightly closed, and casually took a piece of wood used to hang the beast's fur in his hand and said, "Let's go out and have a look." As he spoke, he walked to the wooden door and listened intently, but it was very quiet outside, and there was no movement.
Squeak-
Yan Lin made sure that there was no danger lurking next to the door, so she pulled it open, and the bright and warm sunlight suddenly poured in, spilling all over her body. But the scene outside the door made all three of them gasp.
On the open ground outside the door, there were more than a dozen corpses of Vimo people at this time, lying on the ground, the red blood was still gurgling out of their necks and hearts, converging into a blood-colored stream, the smell of blood was overwhelming, every Vimo was frightened and opened their eyes like copper bells, their ugly rough faces were twisted together, their expressions of pain and horror had frozen, and at a glance, everything in front of them was as terrifying as purgatory.
"He did it?"
Chu Qing looked at Yan Lindao in shock, with surprise in his eyes that could not be concealed. In the ancient jungle full of thick fog, she had seen the ferocity and miraculous strong bows of the Vimo people, but now these dozen or so Vimo people who were as tall as wild beasts had all died here, and looking at their appearance, they were killed with a single blow before they even had time to send bows and arrows!
No wonder they only heard two low screams just now.
Lu Ming actually had such terrifying strength.
Chu Qing had to be surprised and looked at Yan Lin, who also looked a little incredible. She suddenly remembered the several times she had fought with Lu Ming when she was in Suhai City before, no wonder Lu Ming always said that she was entangled, it turned out that in Lu Ming's eyes, her little kung fu was really just a three-legged cat
Roar -
The shouts in the distance came again, from hundreds of stone houses, large and small. Hundreds of stone houses are all made of extremely huge stone blocks, looking like huge fortresses, around the stone houses, ancient trees are towering, there are some simple and rough shelves made of rough logs, and there are a lot of beast skins and beast bodies scattered on them, which should be the usual source of food and clothing for the Vimo people.
On the other side of the stone houses was a raised and high rocky cliff, where there was a narrow passage, naturally made of nature, surrounded by huge trees, which was a natural shield for the dwellings of the Vimo tribe, from which loud cries were heard.
Chu Qing glanced at Yan Lin, Yan Lin nodded, reached out and picked up a bundle of long feather arrows and strong bows from the corpse of a Vimo person, as a self-defense weapon, and finally settled down a little, and then cautiously walked towards the narrow passage at the end of the stone house.
Ma Dai was frightened and his face was ugly, but he didn't dare to let him wait in the stone house alone, so he had to learn from Chu Qing and Yan Lin's actions, picked up a bow and followed behind.
There was no one in the stone house, and it seemed that they were all on the other side of the cliff. However, some of the beast's bodies and fur hanging on the huge rough wooden shelves in front of the stone house were not completely dry, and they were covered in blood, exuding a foul and pungent smell of blood, which hit the nerves of the brain, and still made people frightened.
When you reach the narrow part of the cliff, the sound becomes loud. Yan Lin and the three of them only felt that the situation in front of them changed suddenly, and a rough and magnificent aura came to their faces.
The narrow part of the cliff is actually two steep peaks rising from the ground, both peaks are standing straight, there is no tree bare, the hard and rough huge rocks are exposed, forming a cliff, no, it looks more like two sharp swords, straight into the clouds, far away, forming a narrow passage of more than 20 meters in the middle. Looking at the past from the passage, the eyes suddenly become cheerful, it is a huge square with a radius of nearly a thousand meters, a deep river with a width of more than 20 meters surging from the edge of the square, the river is deep, the waves are rolling, the sun shines down, forming thousands of sparkling waves, but at the extreme of the field of vision, it seems to be suddenly cut off, as if it is a wide cliff, the rushing river water rolls down from there, and after falling, it stirs up a huge sound like thunder, and the white mist rises, covering a large sky, There must be a huge waterfall below.
The entire square is completely flat rock, like a knife and an axe, and the magic of nature can be seen. In the center of the square, artificially piled up a huge platform with a huge rock radius of nearly five zhang, more than 20 meters high from the ground, each rock is blue and black, weighing a thousand catties, the rock is carved with countless strange and mysterious symbols, drenched with bright red color, it looks more like blood, the carved symbols are out of order, like the blood-colored scriptures of teeth and claws.
A huge bonfire was lit on the high platform at this time, and there was a Vimo who shouted something with his arms open and his eyes closed, and on the square around the high platform, there were thousands of tall Vimo people kneeling, all of them prostrate on the ground reverently, and the person on the high platform shouted, and they followed with a chant, and the sound was full of thunder.
Wow!
Suddenly, all the Vimo people stood up, their clothes rattled, and then the man on the high platform let out a cry of grief, and thousands of Vimo people suddenly moved out of the way, and a huge sarcophagus was carried from the way out, and began to walk towards the high platform. After the sarcophagus, another person appeared in front of Yan Lin and the others.
Huang Ling'er.
She was dressed in precious fur clothes, and her whole body was covered with precious ornaments made of beast teeth connected together, and in the light of the sun and fire, the light shimmered, and people could not help but have a touch of inexplicable awe.
However, behind Huang Ling'er, there was a slightly smaller sarcophagus, and the sarcophagus was open, as if it was specially prepared for her. After that, there were hundreds of bloody beast heads, and then there were huge cowhide drums, and a dozen shirtless tall Vimo people beat heavily as they walked, and the drums roared and desolate.
Bang!
The man on the high platform suddenly waved his arm, and everyone fell silent, and then suddenly there was a sad roar, and the fire on the high platform bowed heavily, and then worshiped the sky, and finally turned around in unison, and all turned to look in the direction of the stone house, as if to worship their ancestral residence.
At the moment when thousands of Vimo people turned around, Yan Lin and the three of them were shocked, they had already entered a narrow passage tens of meters long, and the Vimo people would definitely be able to find them as soon as they turned around, and they really didn't know what kind of consequences it would be when the time came!
"Come here!"
Yan Lin, who was walking in the front, suddenly felt her arm tighten, and was grabbed by a big hand, and suddenly pulled her aside, the sudden change startled her, but she heard Lu Ming's voice, and hurriedly suppressed the exclamation that was about to come out of her throat. Chu Qing and Ma Dai behind them were not slow to react, and quickly hid by Lu Ming's side, but it was a slightly sunken place, and a slightly protruding rock in front of them just blocked the view.
"This is a wedding funeral!" Ma Dai looked at Lu Ming and said in a low voice: "Worship fire, worship the sky, worship the clan, these are the three things that the Vimo people are most in awe of, after this ceremony, that friend of yours will be sealed alive in the sarcophagus, and buried in the ground with the dead." ”
Lu Ming said in a deep voice: "I will save her." ”
Ma Dai smiled bitterly, not knowing what to say anymore. (To be continued.) )
