Chapter 840: The Basement

Organ?

Liu Xing hurriedly told Zhang Jingxu and others about his discovery.

Ding Kun squatted on the ground and looked at the bulge, then nodded and said, "That's right, this bulge should be a mechanism, it seems that there is something wrong with this idol." ”

"It seems that we need to trigger this mechanism, because it is very likely that Abe's diary when he was young was hidden behind this mechanism, but I just don't know if there will be a trap behind this mechanism, after all, those fanatics of the secret church like to play this trick." Zhang Jingxu stood next to the statue and said, "This statue is not leaning against the wall, so if nothing else, there should be a basement underneath this statue." ”

Hearing this, Yin En squatted down and knocked on the floor near the idol, and sure enough, there was a hollow sound.

Liu Xing shook his head and said with a smile: "Actually, we should have thought that there would be a secret room in the Black Ming Shrine, after all, the Black Ming Shrine was originally used by the secret church to hide people's eyes. ”

"Then I'll trigger the switch, Liu Xing, you take a few steps back first, so as not to have an accident." Ding Kun put his hand on the mechanism and said.

Liu Xing and the others hurriedly took two steps back and looked around vigilantly.

Ten seconds later, nothing happened.

"Brother Ding, haven't you pressed the mechanism yet?" Zhang Wenbing asked suspiciously.

Ding Kun smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "I pressed it, but after all, this mechanism has not been used for hundreds of years, so it seems to have been damaged due to disrepair." ”

After Ding Kun finished speaking, he pressed the mechanism again, but the mechanism did not move at all.

The scene was a little awkward at one point.

"It seems that we can't expect to open this basement with a mechanism, so let's just push this idol away." Ding Kun stood up and said.

Because this idol was close to the other idols, Liu Xing and the others could only choose to have one person push the idol from behind and another person pull the idol from the side, but the secret church also thought of the possibility that someone would break this mechanism through violent means, so they deliberately made this idol solid.

Therefore, Liu Xing and others tried twice, but the idol was still standing...

"This idol may weigh a thousand pounds, and it will be difficult to move this idol without the tools we have at hand now, so why don't we go back first, I think there seems to be a jack in the car." Yin En said with some deflatment.

Liu Xing shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't be so troublesome, Lotte is much better than a jack." ”

If Yin En hadn't mentioned the "tool", Liu Xing wouldn't have remembered that there was a "tool man" outside the Heiming Shrine.

According to the consistent routine of the Cthulhu Run game, since there is a god statue in this place that ordinary people can't push, then this mod will definitely arrange a person or thing nearby that can break the game, otherwise the player will definitely get stuck in this place.

And Lotte is naturally the one who can break the game.

"yes, how did I forget about Lotte." Zhang Jingxu opened his mouth and said: "Then I'll go to Lotte to come in and help." ”

Zhang Jingxu said and walked towards the outside of the Black Ming Shrine.

Although it was only a few steps, Liu Xing was worried that the KP ghost would take this opportunity to release mythical creatures to attack Zhang Jingxu, so Liu Xing still stepped forward to follow Zhang Jingxu to find Lotte.

At this time, the heavy rain outside the Black Ming Shrine was already a little lighter, but it was still able to block Liu Xing and Zhang Jingxu's sight, so Liu Xing and the two couldn't find Lotte to run to hide from the rain for a while.

However, because Liu Xing and Zhang Jingxu had already left the Black Ming Shrine, Zhang Jingxu immediately found the KP ghost to have a reconnaissance and judgment to find Lotte.

As for Liu Xing, because the Isman Turner didn't know how to wash the skill points of the character card of "Liu Xing", so the original value of "Liu Xing" was directly erased with the reconnaissance skill of 60...

Zhang Jingxu, 36/70, success.

Fortunately, Zhang Jingxu's investigation judgment was successful, so Liu Xing didn't need to make an inspiration judgment at this time.

"Over here." Zhang Jingxu pointed to a big tree not far away and said: "It is the best shelter from the rain near the Black Ming Shrine except for the buildings, and it happens to be where you can see all the roads leading to the Black Ming Shrine, so Lotte should be there." ”

As Zhang Jingxu expected, Lotte was indeed under that big tree.

Looking at Liu Xing and Zhang Jingxu, who were drenched in heavy rain, Lotte said with some surprise: "What's wrong with you?" Could it be that there is something wrong in the Black Ming Shrine? ”

Zhang Jingxu nodded and told Lotte about the idol.

Lotte nodded, and said confidently: "You can rest assured, as long as the weight of that idol does not exceed two thousand catties, then I have no problem pushing that idol." ”

So, Liu Xing and the others took Lotte into the Black Ming Shrine, and Lotte lived up to expectations and pushed away the statue.

As Liu Xing and the others had guessed before, there was indeed a basement under this statue.

Ding Kun took out the lighter and tried it, but the lighter went out within two or three seconds.

"Sure enough, this basement has been sealed for hundreds of years, and the oxygen in it has long been insufficient, so we have to wait for this basement to be windy for a while before entering." Ding Kun thought for a while and continued: "By the way, Lotte, did you hear any movement when you were watching the wind outside? ”

Lotte shook his head and said, "I didn't hear any strange movements just now, it seems that the people of those public factions really don't know the specific location of the Black Ming Shrine, otherwise based on the route they took up the mountain, they would have already arrived at the Black Ming Shrine by now." ”

Zhang Jingxu nodded, and then asked, "Then is it possible for them to come to the Black Ming Shrine from other routes?" ”

"That's impossible, because the Black Ming Shrine is located on a cliff, so there are only a few routes to reach the Black Ming Shrine, and they are all within my line of sight, so it is impossible for them to avoid my eyes and ears, after all, as a martial arts practitioner, I can see six ways and listen to all directions." Lotte said with a smile.

After listening to Lotte's words, Liu Xing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said: "It seems that those guys should have lost their way in the heavy rain, and they shouldn't come to disturb us for a while, but for the sake of safety, it's better for us to divide into two teams later-one team goes into the basement, and the other team is in the main hall ready to pick up." ”

Zhang Jingxu nodded, and then said: "I think so too, Brother Ding, you and Yin En will stay outside later, after all, you are all good at using guns, and if you meet someone from the public faction at that time, you can also delay a day or two." ”

"No problem." Yin En and Ding Kun said in unison.

"As for Lotte, why don't you stay in the main hall first, because those people in the public faction must also have guns in their hands, and it will be very dangerous for you to clash with them outside." Zhang Jingxu said seriously.

Lotte nodded and said, "I think so too, after all, I am a live target in their eyes for such a big man, and my master did not teach me the iron cloth shirt and the golden bell jar." ”

After a few minutes, Ding Kun took a lighter to test the air quality in the basement, then nodded and said: "Okay, Zhang Jingxu, you can go in now, if you hear a gunshot inside, remember to come out to help, and if you encounter a situation in the basement, remember to call us." ”

Zhang Jingxu nodded, and then walked into the basement first.

Although there should be no living creatures in this basement that has been closed for hundreds of years, and the mythical creature that may be Xiugus or the Invisible Child is not afraid of bullets, Liu Xing and the three of them still took out the pistol to defend themselves in order to seek comfort, and by the way, they used the tactical flashlight on the pistol to illuminate it.

After walking a few steps, Liu Xing and the others entered a semi-enclosed space the size of a standard football field.

Liu Xing took the pistol and looked around, and found that this should be the meeting place of the secret church, because there was a small round altar half a meter high in the center, and there seemed to be a magic array carved on it, but this magic array had also become blurred due to the passage of time.

There are also a large number of stone lampstands around this space, and some of them seem to have other things in them.

Liu Xing walked to the nearest lampstand, only to find that there was some paper in this lampstand, and on it was a kind of text that Liu Xing couldn't understand.

Liu Xing took out a pair of leather gloves from his pocket and put them on, and then wanted to take out the papers.

The result may be that too much time has passed, or that the environment in the basement has changed dramatically after being opened by Liu Xing and others, so when Liu Xing came into contact with those papers, they directly turned into ashes.

At this time, Zhang Wenbing on the side said: "The text used on the paper in these lampstands should be an ancient script that has been lost, I have seen it a few times in the Huaxia Daomen before, but I didn't pay attention to it so much at that time. ”

"Why don't you take a photo and send it back to Huaxia Daomen, big brother Zhang, to see if anyone knows the origin of these words?" Zhang Jingxu put forward his own suggestion.

Zhang Wenbing nodded at first, but after taking out his mobile phone, he shook his head and said: "There is no phone signal here, it seems that we can only take two photos first, and then make plans after leaving here later, but I remember these words are an early hieroglyph, so we should be able to guess some of the content." ”

Liu Xing walked to the front of another lampstand, and then carefully looked at the text on the paper, and found that this should indeed be an early hieroglyph, so Liu Xing could barely understand some sentences on the paper, after all, early hieroglyphs were stick figures.

"Is this the diary of those fanatical believers?" Liu Xing opened his mouth and said, "It seems that a hunting activity is recorded on this piece of paper. ”

"These papers may have been collected from other places by the fanatical believers who built the Black Ming Shrine, because they didn't know the meaning of the words, so they mistakenly thought that the contents of these papers were not simple?" Zhang Jingxu guessed.

Zhang Wenbing next to him shook his head and said seriously: "I think this is a little wrong, because these hieroglyphs should not appear on paper, after all, the appearance of paper represents a level of civilization, and it stands to reason that the civilization that can manufacture paper in batches should not stay in hieroglyphs, because the writing of early hieroglyphs is relatively complex, and each word basically has only one meaning, and the criticality between each other is not too strong, so it will inevitably be improved with the development of civilization." ”

Liu Xing frowned, feeling that what Zhang Wenbing said was very right, it was indeed unlikely that these words would appear on paper on such a large scale.

"Is it possible that these words were copied by fanatics from some stone fresco?" Zhang Jingxu asked.

Zhang Wenbing shook his head and said affirmatively: "Although there is such a possibility, but the words on these papers have obvious broken sentences, and the same text is almost identical, which shows that the person who writes the text is already very familiar with this kind of text, after all, we must spend a certain amount of time practicing when we first learn a new text to ensure that the same words can look similar." ”

At this moment, Liu Xing suddenly noticed that a word on the paper looked very strange.

To put it simply, the word is an oval with six symmetrical tentacles growing out of it.

Could this be the mythical creature that represents the Black Ming Shrine?

Liu Xing told Zhang Jingxu and Zhang Wenbing about his discovery.

After Liu Xing and the others looked at a few more papers in the lampstand, they determined that this character was a mythical creature with tentacles that it represented.

"It seems that the mythical creatures in the Black Ming Shrine are likely to be the Invisible Sons, because although Shogoth also likes to use tentacles to attack, but under normal circumstances, Shogoths will not always maintain the tentacle state." Liu Xing said seriously, "In this case, those fanatical believers in the Heiming Shrine should be the Satogua of faith. ”

Liu Xing said while thinking about a question in his heart, that is, how could he always encounter things related to Satogua during this period of time?

Could it be that he was targeted by Satogua?

Liu Xing felt that the next time he saw the King in Yellow, it was necessary to ask the King in Yellow if he had any marks on his body.

After determining that the mythical creatures in the Heiming Shrine were likely to be the Invisible Son, Liu Xing and the others accelerated the pace of searching, after all, with the strength of Liu Xing and the others, it was impossible to deal with the Invisible Son, and if they encountered the Invisible Child in this semi-enclosed space, then Liu Xing and the others would have to be ready to tear the card.

So the idea of Liu Xing and the others was very simple, that is, to complete the search of this basement as soon as possible, and then leave here quickly.

However, in Liu Xing's opinion, it is very likely that Abe's notes from his youth are here, because this should be regarded as the most hidden and dangerous place in the Black Ming Shrine.
