Chapter 134: The Gooders
Walking through the long and dark tunnel, the road ahead gradually became regular, and some of the uneven ground of the tunnel was artificially leveled, paved with square stones, and the rock walls on both sides of the tunnel were painted with all kinds of strange murals.
Xiao Yu could vaguely discern what the mural was trying to express.
The ceremonies during the sacrifices, the wars between the clans, hunting, planting, breeding, the frescoes depict the whole process of a people from strength to rise and fall, the Gude people were originally a powerful clan, conquered other clans around them, and became the rulers of this place, but due to the change of environment, large forests disappeared, fertile soil became barren desert land, the race began to decay, and the helpless people turned all their hopes to the gods, so, ' The gods appeared, and they built magnificent temples for the gods, worshiped the gods devoutly, slaughtered the people and sacrificed to the gods, but their prayers did not bring anything, and the plague and fear spread, and finally pushed the entire clan to destruction.
As for the 'god', it never appeared in the mural, and from the bloody mural, Xiao Yu seemed to be able to see the 'god' smiling cruelly behind his back, he witnessed the race go from calm and peaceful to madness, and then perished, and he seemed to be enjoying the process.
Seeing the bloody and terrifying sacrificial scene, Xiao Yu couldn't help but be moved, if that god really existed, he must be a pervert, otherwise he wouldn't have watched all this happen without stopping it.
Xiao Yu looked at these murals intently, attracted by the content of the murals, and his heartbeat was a little rapid unconsciously, everything that happened here was really terrible. If Xiao Yu's guess is correct, this mural depicts the history of the Gude people, a race that was once extremely powerful, but eventually decayed and disappeared in the long river of history, leaving only the temple and the murals here, tearfully telling their history.
There was a creak, and there were some strange noises from Xiao Yu's feet.
"It's not good, it's a trap!" Xiao Yu changed color slightly, and he was gone!
Ding ding ding, dozens of metal arrows shot straight from all directions, but they were all blocked by Xiao Yu's escape, Xiao Yu hurriedly left the place where the arrows were most dense, and just after a second, poof, a pillar of blood erupted from Xiao Yu's thigh.
An arrow pierced Xiao Yu's thigh, and a damage value of more than a hundred floated up from Xiao Yu's head, but fortunately, only one arrow hit Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu retreated and found a safe place to restore his blood volume.
After the amount of blood was full, Xiao Yu continued to move forward, but he didn't dare to be as careless as just now, and from time to time he used the skills he had just learned to eliminate nearby traps.
The style of the latter few murals changed abruptly, and it was no longer blood that filled the entire mural, but endless fear and fear, after countless Gude people were slaughtered to sacrifice to the gods, the population of the Gude people plummeted, and when the dark dusk once again enveloped the Gude camp, countless ghosts appeared in their camp, the ghosts slaughtered the Gude people frantically, the ghost's shrill laughter and the terrible screams of the Gude people enveloped the Gude camp, and the Gude people ran into the temple to seek refuge in crying, however, There were more ghosts in the temple. Only then did they realize that the god they believed in was simply a devil.
When everything was silent again, the earth was stained with blood, the rising sun poured over the land, the few surviving Gude people wept and left their homeland, and the corpses of the dead Gude people quietly rotted on the land.
The murals were interrupted here, it seems that everything here is left by those who survived the Gude people, Xiao Yu looked at these murals, sadness, anger, fear, all kinds of emotions surged up, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Xiao Yu forcibly calmed down, and if he wanted to complete the task smoothly, he had to stay calm. Xiao Yu took a deep breath, trying to forget the images that kept circling in his head.
Passing through the long and narrow and dark tunnel, Xiao Yu found a staircase covered with yellow sand, and looked at the top of the stairs, some light from the top of the stairs shone through, which was probably the exit of the tunnel.
Walking up the stairs, he finally walked out of the tunnel, when he saw the nearby scene, Xiao Yu felt extremely shocked, this is surrounded by a flat and open area, there are many traces of the Gude people's life, collapsed camps, all kinds of life utensils are scattered everywhere, but more, it is the corpses of the Gude people, there are corpses everywhere, endless, innumerable, there is no end in sight.
The yin wind howled, and the black sun hung in the sky, like a terrible curse, Xiao Yu felt as if he had suddenly arrived in Senluo Hell.
All this is too unbelievable, and then in connection with the mural he just saw, Xiao Yu can imagine how terrible everything that happened at the beginning, looking at this wilderness, Xiao Yu's heart was filled with a sad taste.
A gust of cold wind blew past Xiao Yu's side, and feeling the chill in the wind, Xiao Yu couldn't help but shiver.
Looking at the horizon ahead, at the end of the horizon you can vaguely see a majestic temple building, towering, resplendent and golden, out of place with everything here, but on closer inspection, it is so harmonious and full of a strange beauty.
There was a high slope nearby, Xiao Yu climbed up the high slope, and looked into the distance, the majestic temple building should be the temple built by the Gude people, and he still needed to pass through this corpse-strewn wilderness to get there. Looking out into the wilderness below, one or two ghosts could be seen wandering aimlessly.
System: You discovered the Wilderness of Bones.
"I guess this is another copy map." Xiao Yu thought to himself, walking towards the wilderness below, shuttling among the corpses, and occasionally seeing some foraging rats, which they used as ready-made nests.
Some of these corpses were pierced by metal and hung in the air, some were pierced into the ground with spears, some were decapitated, some had limbs missing, and so on, and so on, and the corpses that were slaughtered for sacrifice were even more horrific, cut into pieces and placed in metal containers, and the corpses were nailed into various metal objects.
When a people goes crazy, it is very terrible, they destroy humanity and finally push themselves to extinction.
Human beings are the most incomprehensible race, they can have love and care, they have hatred and hatred, noble people can sacrifice themselves for others, and despicable people can kill others for profit. In the history of mankind, there have been civilizations, as well as barbarism and brutality.
What happens here is just a repetition of some fragment of history.
