Chapter 616: The Tomb (Part I)
"I suddenly have a feeling that this time the Ascension Ritual doesn't seem to be so easily destroyed, so we might as well stay and take a look." Ax looked unhurried, and he was almost like two people before.
"Are you not confident in your plans?" Tina asked curiously, because Ax had also made a lot of arrangements for this ascension ceremony, and Aix's decision to stay at this time was a denial of his plan.
"Of course I'm confident in my plan, but isn't it a no-brainer? These are not my plans, so it's good to stay and see the excitement, so that I can find out what holes in my plan can be patched, it's better than having a black eye at the time! ”
"What do you want to do?" Tina suddenly saw Aix's eyes glow green, just like a hungry wolf saw a little sheep and couldn't help but pounce on it to enjoy a delicious meal. Every time Ax showed this kind of expression, he would make some crazy moves, and Tina was too familiar with it, so the moment he saw Ax show this kind of gaze, he asked vigilantly.
"Don't be so nervous, I just suddenly had a hint of curiosity about the temple." Ax explained, but the green light in his eyes was getting brighter and brighter.
"I don't think I'm curious about that temple, I'm curious about what treasures are in the temple, right?" Tina directly exposed Aix's lies without giving any face, and Ax was not embarrassed and generously admitted it.
"Of course, if there's any treasure in there, I don't mind taking a look, how about it, do you want to go in and have a look?" Ax said seductively, just like a strange uncle seducing little Lori, which made Tina's whole body chill and goosebumps fell all over the ground.
"Aren't you afraid that the solar disc will suddenly explode and bury you in the sand?"
"Don't worry, Azir has already suffered a loss once, so he will definitely not fall in the same place twice, since he is with the ascension ceremony again, it means that he has a perfect plan, and he will not fail so easily." Ax explained, already feeling in the direction of the Temple of the Sun.
Tina had no choice but to follow, and the two sneaky people avoided the guards all the way and headed towards the Temple of the Sun, but fortunately there was chaos at this time, and the guards were busy maintaining order, and no one thought that there would be two bold men and women who would take advantage of this time to be interested in the Temple of the Sun, because it was now a powder keg that could explode at any time.
The last time he came, Aix was stopped by the guards and couldn't enter, but this time Ax certainly wouldn't let go of this opportunity, after avoiding everyone's eyes, Aix pulled Tina and dodged and entered the interior of the Sun Temple, but the two didn't know if there was anything wrong with the place they entered, so they came directly to the kitchen.
"What kind of broken path did you choose, we didn't come in to steal vegetables." Tina grabbed a green vegetable and threw it at Ax, which must have been invaluable in Shurima, but the two of Ax didn't care about it.
"How do I know, I see that there are the least guards here, of course I chose this place, otherwise, do you think we will be able to come in so easily?" Aix said in a forced defense, and the master did not admit that it was his own vision.
"Then what do you say, go out and choose a new path?" Tina asked listlessly, not in the mood to argue with Aix.
"Since this is the kitchen, there must be a way to deliver food, and if we find it, we will definitely be able to go to the residences of some important people."
"I hope so." Tina said weakly.
After a period of searching, the two really found a passage, and the two did not hesitate too much, and walked in along the passage. It's just that I don't know why, this passage is very dark, and there is not even a light, if it weren't for the better eyesight of Ax and Tina, they would have been bruised and swollen.
"How do I feel wrong, even if I go to the kitchen to steal food, I don't have to save so much, this passage doesn't look like a place to lead to that big man, but more like a way to prison." Tina said as she walked as she looked at the already moldy walls on either side.
"It's kind of weird." Aix also frowned, a little skeptical that he had come in correctly, but he was a little unwilling to go back empty-handed.
"Walk for another ten minutes and see where this leads to, and if there's any danger, leave immediately." Aix finally made a final decision.
As soon as Aix's words fell, a bright light appeared in the eyes of the two, and this dim passage finally had a glimmer of light, which made Ax and Tina both nervous involuntarily.
"Isn't there any danger?" Tina asked worriedly.
"Probably not, otherwise, this passage would not lead to a kitchen, but to a barracks." After Ax finished speaking, he seemed to think that he should be careful, so he continued: "But don't be careless, maybe that kitchen is just a disguise, so it's better to be careful." ”
So, the two of them began to tiptoe towards the light, as if they were thieves, but the two of them were indeed two little thieves for the Sun Temple.
Finally, the two of them came to the end of the passage and saw the scene at the end of the passage, and the two suddenly felt a creep, because at the end of the passage, there was a huge tomb, and countless dried corpses were sitting or lying all over the tomb, and the light came from a pot of fire in the center of the hall.
"What is this place?" Tina's voice trembled as she asked.
"This is the resting place of the wise of Shurima, and those wise men who feel that their lives are short will enter here before they die, waiting for death to come."
"I see, no wonder there are so many dried corpses." Tina subconsciously continued, but soon realized that something was wrong, because the voice was not Aix's voice at all, and Aix couldn't have known what it was.
At this time, Aix was looking at the corner of the hall as if he was facing a great enemy, where there was a figure sitting on the ground, unlike the dried corpses around him, this person was not dead, although he was completely skinny and bone-like, but from his slightly undulating chest, it could be seen that this was a living person, maybe not a living person anymore, but it was definitely not a dead person.
