Chapter 47: The Land of the Pool of Blood
"That's not ......" With great effort, Kong Xianglin and the three of them finally connected the crystal skulls as much as possible, but things did not go as they thought, and the grassland did not change in any way.
……
"It's not like that!" Twenty minutes later, the trio broke the previous arrangement and rearranged it, but there was still no change.
"Are you two sure we're really cracking the illusion and not wasting the food in our stomachs?" Bai Shujie couldn't help but be discouraged.
……
Twenty minutes later, Kong Xianglin connected to the last crystal skull that could be connected, the illusion still didn't have any reaction, he exhaled, and said: "This job is really not easy to do, at first I still felt that it was just a twist, I didn't think it was quite difficult, I need to align them to make them face up to the arc, and if you accidentally get electricity, it's really troublesome." ”
"It's just a matter of trouble, but this is the third time we've failed, and we still haven't figured out the slightest clue, which is really discouraging." Wen Xiayun said.
"In this case, I guess we won't be able to get out even if we get old, and there must be something we haven't thought clearly." Bai Shujie patted the soil on his palm and said.
"Door master, do you want to see if there is anything missing?" Wen Xiayun looked into the distance and said, "This grassland is so vast, are there any other crystal skulls in it?" ”
Kong Xianglin shook his head and said, "I also thought of this, when we failed for the second time, I had already released the evil eye. I searched the ground within a radius of fifteen square kilometers with us as the center, and found nothing. ”
"Could it be that I missed it?" Bai Shujie said.
"I've been very careful in my patrols, unless the owner of this illusion has placed it farther away. Otherwise, it will definitely be discovered. Kong Xianglin said. said. He examined the matrix of crystal skulls beneath his feet once more.
"Could it be that we were wrong in the first place?" Wen Xiayun said.
"Oh?" Kong Xianglin looked at her, "Do you have a new opinion?" ”
Wen Xiayun said: "There are no new ideas for the time being, but I feel that we are likely to have gone into a misunderstanding. ”
Kong Xianglin nodded and said, "It's completely possible, after all, no one tells us what the rules are." ”
"I feel like no matter how I get it, I can't do without these crystal skulls." Bai Shujie said.
Both agreed, for the only thing unusual about the grassland in the realm they had examined was the forty-nine skulls.
"They can arc in pairs. Originally arranged in a seven-by-seven matrix, there is only so much we know. Kong Xianglin pinched his chin and thought, "Could it be that the way to crack it is not above these two points, but in other directions?" ”
He couldn't help but look up at the sky, the grassland sky, white clouds, the breeze blowing, people feel very comfortable, if this is a real natural environment, it may not be a beautiful thing to live here for a long time. A fresh breeze blew. His hair, which he hadn't cut in months, leaned down diagonally, covering his eyes.
"Huh?" Kong Xianglin was stunned. Looking at the crystal skull matrix under his feet, he saw that the arcs were horizontal and vertical, without intersecting each other, he took a deep breath, took two steps forward, squatted down, and said, "Why do we make each arc criss-crossed, but not diagonally?" ”
"Forehead......" Bai Shujie said, "Isn't it crossed diagonally?" ”
"Cross!" Kong Xianglin looked at him and turned his head, "What if you want to cross?" ”
"Well, it's not impossible." Wen Xiayun walked up, deflected a crystal skull, and the arc disappeared. Then she twisted the corresponding skull diagonally so that it was opposite the previous one, and after adjusting the angle, there was a "bang" sound, and an oblique electric light was generated. Kong Xianglin twisted the other two skulls that were intertwined with him at the same time, causing them to also produce an oblique arc of electricity, and the two arcs were staggered and collided in the air.
"Poof!" "Poof!" As the two arcs collided, the arcs between the pairs of crystal skulls around them disappeared, making several people's eyes light up.
"There is a reaction." Bai Shujie said in surprise. He confirmed that he and Kong Xianglin had not touched these pairs of skulls, and the reason why the arc between them disappeared must have been connected to the skulls that were diagonally opposite each other to produce an arc collision.
"We haven't had the skulls diagonally facing each other to generate arcs before, mainly to generate as many arcs as possible between them, but as I said, the way to solve this illusion may not be to look at the amount of arcs generated, but the actual arrangement. For example, orientation, such as graphics. Wen Xiayun said.
"Well, what Dr. Tea said makes sense, let's try again this time." Kong Xianglin said with a smile, eager to try. Ever since he was in school, he's been fascinated by this kind of puzzle game, it's a lot of fun!
"Hah! Finally connected, let me see what the hell you are! After a full hour and ten attempts, Kong Xianglin finally connected to the last arc, and the entire grassland illusion shook violently.
The three of them felt that all the scenes were falling like broken mirrors, and soon, a black and blood-red world appeared before the three of them.
"Gross!" The smell of blood was tangy, and Bai Shujie couldn't hold back it and spit it out.
Wen Xiayun and Kong Xianglin didn't care about making fun of Bai Shujie, and the two of them endured it so that they were not stimulated by the strong and pungent bloody breath to vomit.
Bai Shujie was about to vomit out his bitter guts, and he was a little better, and cursed: "What the hell is this place, why is it so bloody."
As far as the eye could see, there was a pitch-black cavern, and the rocks on the roof of the cave looked black, but around the rock where they were standing, a pool of bright red blood that glowed faintly and occasionally bubbled out a few viscous bubbles surrounded them in the middle.
As far as the eye can see, the pool of blood can't see how big it is, let alone how deep it is. In the pool of blood, there were many exposed rocks like the ones under their feet, but they all looked unusually black, incompatible with the faintly glowing pool of blood.
"It's blood!" Wen Xiayun lowered her head and dug up a small piece of the rock under her feet, held it up in front of her eyes, and said to the two of them.
Kong Xianglin gasped, only to realize what kind of rock was under their feet? It's just a dried clot of blood that clots.
Bai Shujie was also startled, wiped the dirt on the side of his mouth, and said, "Is this ghost place real or an illusion?" ”
Kong Xianglin was just about to answer, when he suddenly raised his eyebrows, and said in the direction behind Wen Xiayun: "Since Your Excellency has been waiting here for a long time, why don't you show up to meet you?" (To be continued......)
