Chapter 335: Gods and Demons
"Are you crazy?" He tilted his head to Liang Mingfeng, gritted his teeth in a barely audible voice, and said, "Don't mess around, go to the Divine Beast, and we'll all be finished." ”
After confirming Yan Guan's panicked expression and eager to kill the person named Sha Kailan in front of him immediately, Sha Muqing had reason to believe that his judgment was correct.
The Beisha Army found an impostor, swaggered and deceived, and also tried to expand its forces in order to overthrow itself.
Just beat the core of their faith from the sky to the bottom of the earth and depreciate it to nothing.
After the lie is exposed, it is time for these stupid poor people in Beisha to sober up.
……
In order to maintain the security of [Sha Kailan], the entire process of identity verification will be broadcast live to the world through the Qiankun Mirror.
The general also personally used his own life as a guarantee, and he would definitely ensure the fairness of the verification process of the Zhenguo Divine Beast, and would not let the King of Beisha be unharmed.
The monarch of the Heavenly Sword Kingdom, the unified administrator of the Twelve Kingdoms (the Chongjian Kingdom has been freed from the status of a vassal state), will also be invited to participate in this testimony with a video.
However, even without any bets, everyone knew that if the verification failed, then the only fate that awaited the fake Sha Kailan was to be executed in public.
Not only that, but the year-long efforts of the Beisha Army will be in vain.
Yan Guan's face was like ashes, and he had almost foreseen the ending-
As the leader of the rebels, and at the same time there are so many souls of Nansha under his hands, he will definitely be sent to death with this madman Sha Kailan, who doesn't know which tendon is wrong.
It was at this moment that he hoped that the rumor was true, and how he wished that this guy he picked up halfway was a real thing.
……
Speaking of which, the location of the verification is very strange.
To be precise, it should be that the place where the legendary gods and demons live is very strange.
The gods and demons who are considered supreme and sacred by the people of the Sand Sword Kingdom naturally have a special way to worship, and they have built magnificent temples for this strange creature-
But they built the temple into a pyramid.
Emiya couldn't understand what kind of creature this was, and it would be like living in such a place and not moving for thousands of years.
Moreover, in addition to worshipping gods and demons, the pyramid itself does have the function of burying the dead monarch.
The gods and demons are connected to heaven and earth, and because they have a special blood connection with the monarch of the Sand Sword Kingdom, even if the other party dies, they will always stay nearby and cannot leave.
Then, after about one to three years, it will die of exhaustion, and the next successor of the Gods and Demons will be born from the corpse.
At the same time, he will serve as a lifelong companion to the new monarch, continuing the previous pattern until his death.
In other words, this is a great creature that will never leave as long as it is connected with its owner.
Because there will not be too many funeral goods when the monarch is buried, and the coffin of the monarch in the past can accept the offerings of all the people, so these pyramids will not be specially set up with internal anti-theft mechanisms and guarded by heavy soldiers.
On the other hand, the people of the Sand Sword Kingdom are full of awe of the gods and demons, for them, they are gods that cannot be blasphemed, so they are also convinced that they will be severely punished by the gods if they steal from the mausoleum.
In a sense, this is the reason why so many pyramids have survived so many years.
Under the erosion of wind and sand, only the first few buildings have gradually become peeling and rotten due to age, and the royal family will spend a lot of money every year to repair them.
The old Golden Tower has collapsed to the point of collapse.
Along the way, from the line of sight of the palace to the end of the horizon, there are more than thirty pyramids.
According to the standard of life expectancy of this world, the oldest one has also witnessed the history of this world for thousands of years.
In fact, 1,800 years have passed since the one that was able to survive.
Even when the Heavenly Sword Kingdom unified the Twelve Kingdoms, it didn't offend the ancient undead here.
The location where the previous monarch Sha Chengchen was buried was less than a hundred miles away from the imperial city, and it was the youngest of the more than 30 pyramids.
So it was obvious that the golden brickwork on the façade was still very new, and it was faintly shining against the wind and sand.
Above the top of the tower, there is a huge brazier, the flames in which are strangely blue and white, which is said to be caused by the gods and demons living in it.
The flame indicates that the beast is still alive, and if the beast dies, the flame will be automatically extinguished, and the flame will not be lit again until the next god and demon beast is born.
At that time, they will see colors as brilliant as a rainbow.
……
The golden pagoda of the former emperor looked at the world coldly with a cold mouth.
It had only a hollow, one-man entrance, and a giant like Mouton had to bend over to avoid being hit on his head by the rocks on it.
Upon stepping into the entrance of this massive pyramid, Emiya felt the cold that came from the abyss, penetrating directly through the soul and soaking into the bones.
Fortunately, the internal structure is not complicated, perhaps because they do not have the concern of preventing theft, so it is almost a road leading directly to the king's room, and there are some small rooms on both sides of the perimeter, which were used to store utensils, and later the queen and concubine of the king were buried after they died.
One pit per person, it has been prepared for a long time, no more, no less, very fair.
The monarch's chamber is much larger, about 40 square meters, and in the center lies a coffin (guanguo), carved with intricate patterns, some of which are used to tell the glorious life of the former emperor.
Under the leadership of Sha Muqing, after everyone knelt three times and bowed nine times, they entered the monarch's room, and then stood on both sides according to their status.
The ceiling overhead was about six or seven meters above the ground, with a two-meter-wide opening in the middle, from which sunlight poured down and fell just above the coffin.
In the dark room, after passing through a long and narrow corridor that lacked light just now, and suddenly entering such a place, you can indeed feel the powerful divine power from the central pillar of light.
However, for some reason, even with the sun, the ground here is unusually wet and cold, and there is a strange smell in the air.
It's also strange to say, I thought that because it was at the bottom, the air was not circulating, and there was a negligent emperor lying inside, it should be filled with a bad smell of sourness.
But in the air, there is a faint fragrance.
This obvious contrast has to make people feel a tingling scalp.
It suddenly occurred to Wei Gong that there should be something else enshrined here-
It was then that he heard an eerie vibration from above, like some kind of cold-blooded animal crawling on the bark of a tree, and there was a fluttering sound.
In an instant, the room was blocked by something strange from above.
It's dark.
