Boom...... Boom...... Boom......

The footsteps were getting closer, and everyone who stayed in the center of the altar held their breath.

Fortunately, Zhang Meng, Fatty, Ye Jiu, and Lady Na have seen a lot of such strange things, so they are not too nervous. But even so, when they faced this strange voice again, they still couldn't suppress the tension in their hearts. Behind him, Professor Lou, Professor Fang, and Lambert widened their eyes, covering their mouths with one hand, staring at the road that connected the altar to the tomb.

Ye Jiu turned around and gave Zhang Meng a look, then grabbed the handle of the Kuaixue knife with five fingers, and rushed towards the entrance of the tomb.

As Ye Jiu rushed out, the footsteps began to become urgent, and everyone could even feel the raindrop-like footsteps running away quickly.

After a long pause, the fat man said, "It's okay, everyone doesn't have to be afraid." ”

"Are you really okay?" Professor Lou asked.

"Now that the little lady has made a move, everyone can put a hundred hearts." The fat man returned to his usual cheap smile.

"What was the sound just now?" The bearded Lambert seemed to be very attached to the thing that was gone.

"Want to know? See for yourself. The fat man smirked.

"I ......"

Without waiting for the fat man to quarrel with the bearded man, Lady Na on the side hurriedly said: "Similar to your Western vampires and demons." ”

"Vampires, demons?" Lambert was even more confused.

"yes, it's a vampire who likes to suck the blood of bearded people like you." The fat man explained blindly.

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and translate." Zhang Meng saw that this ancient tomb seemed to be starting to look strange, so he urged the fat man: "It's a little less troublesome, you move quickly." ”

"Good!"

Just as the fat man was about to climb down the coffin to continue his translation, a man walked by at the entrance of the tomb.

Zhang Meng and Lady Na immediately sensed each other's presence, and hurriedly turned the flashlight over, only to find that the brown rat was standing between the heads of those rats and looking around.

Seeing that it was a brown rat, Zhang Meng breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Why did you come down?" ”

"Oh, they want me to come and talk to you." After speaking, without waiting for Zhang Meng to ask what the current situation is, he heard the brown rat say to himself: "These mouse statues are very unique." ”

"How's it going, do you see your family?" The fat man quipped: "I said, it seems that before you, there were people in your family who were as good as you." ”

"Hey...... Is it? I know of a legend about the human body of a rat, would you like to hear about it? Without waiting for an answer, the brown rat turned back and told the people some of the legends he had heard about the mouse.

"According to legend, rats have been the most spiritual animals since ancient times, and in the Northeast, they are called the five underground immortals along with snakes, hedgehogs, weasels, and foxes."

As soon as the brown rat said the beginning, the fat man pouted and said, "Nonsense, you still need to talk about it." About the story of Bao Jiaxian, the fat man knows more than you. ”

"That's right." "But the story I'm going to tell is a little different. ”

"Oh, how is it different?" Zhang Meng asked.

"This is an ancient legend that has been passed down in the Western Regions." The brown rat said mysteriously.

"In the Western Regions, it can't be these rat-headed statues, right?"

The brown rat did not answer Zhang Meng and the fat man, but continued: "Legend has it that thousands of years ago, in a small country in the Western Regions, one day suddenly came a prophet covered with a white cloth, the prophet appeared in the palace at that time, the prophet used his prophecy and supernatural powers, so that the king and all his subjects were all impressed at his feet, and through what the prophet brought, the country began to become strong. The country was originally only as powerful as the surrounding countries, but because of the appearance of the Prophet, the country's combat power rapidly expanded, seriously threatening several neighboring countries. ”

"Grandma's, isn't this the story told on the mural?" The fat man said.

"Don't talk." Zhang Meng motioned to the fat man not to interrupt the story of the brown rat and let the brown rat continue.

"Although the nation has become powerful because of the presence of the Prophet, in the same way, they have to pay a certain price for it......"

"The price, at what cost?" The fat man couldn't help but ask.

"Is it man, that prophet needed a large number of living people to complete the sacrifice before he could exert his power? ceremony, but that country is not big, with a population of no more than 10,000 people. At first, the king would take some prisoners as sacrifices, and later, the prisoners became fewer and fewer, and they could no longer meet the needs of the sacrifice, and finally, the king had no choice but to ask for slaves from neighboring countries, and if he did not comply, he would send cavalry to attack each other, and several small countries around did not dare to resist, and successively sent people to transport a lot of slaves over, but this king demanded excessively, and several small countries were miserable, and finally this oppression was that they came together, and they formed a coalition to resist that powerful country, However, with the help of the prophet, the country quickly defeated the surrounding coalition forces with an overwhelming advantage, and the defeated soldiers became a new round of sacrificial supplies. Because of this failed war, several small countries began to suffer a great oppression, and the prophet was no longer satisfied with just asking for people, and finally began to build sacrificial places under the city-states of several countries, using the subjects of those small countries, and even their nobles and princes as living sacrifices. In the end, not only these small countries could not stand it, but even the previous country could not bear it, and they were secretly ready to resist, but they were all imprisoned in the castle by a group of mysterious people sent by the angry prophet, and the angry prophet told them that since they received the supernatural powers, they had to pay a price, otherwise, the entire Western Regions would suffer a human catastrophe......"

"Damn, it's so bloody, it's too vicious to ask the subjects of several countries to be sacrificed to the living, right?" The fat man said to Lambert, "Well, I say, your prophet is not a thing. ”

"No, no, that's not our prophet, it's not." Lambert hurriedly shook his hand.

Zhang Meng asked: "Then they finally joined together, and they didn't resist?" ”

"Of course, the first time was because of the defeat in the war, and the second time, including the first great powers, were all defeated at the hands of the followers of the Prophet, and that group of believers is the legend of the rat that I am going to tell."

"Wouldn't these rat heads be believers in the Demon Prophet?" Zhang Meng was startled, suddenly understood, and then turned his gaze to the ghostly human rat heads beside him.

Suddenly, he noticed that the rat-headed figure on the other side was actually smiling at him.
