Chapter 578: Ancient Country Murals (Second Update)
The so-called 'human sacrifice' is to use the knowledge passed down by the demons that the upper echelons of the ancient kingdom came into contact with in their dreams, and torture most of the people to death, if they are assisted by some runes, this will produce an evil energy.
This kind of energy is the source of supernatural power for the upper echelons of the ancient kingdom for more than a hundred years, and it is also the secret of the longevity of the rulers of the ancient kingdom.
Because a large number of the 600,000 people who could not enter the underground city to live in the underground city also participated in the construction of the underground city, it must be eliminated in order to keep the secret of the underground city.
To this end, the ancient kingdom carried out a detailed plan of slaughter.
In the oasis where the ancient kingdom is located, there were originally several large vassals and a huge ground city, and the plan of the ancient kingdom was to use decades to eliminate those tribes one after another, and then carry out the internal cleansing of the ancient kingdom.
After the early war, about 200,000 people were killed, and several large tribes were slaughtered, and these massacres created nearly 10,000 guards with supernatural evil power.
These guards are usually dressed in black, and black is the color of demonic favor in the knowledge of evil.
After slaughtering a few vassal tribes, the guards began to return to their ancient kingdoms, slaughtering some of the lower slaves for a decade and relocating some of the more elite to the underground cities.
Because that ancient country was originally the existence of slavery, it was not difficult to slaughter some slaves who had no ability to resist, the upper echelons of the ancient country did a good job of secrecy, and the ancient country was a social class with a pyramid structure, even slaves were hierarchical, and no one cared about the death of the lowest slaves.
And then, this ancient country is like tearing down the pyramids, each time it is said that the lowest class of the pyramid is slaughtered, and the superstructure is left. It took about ten to fifteen years to slaughter the slaves of the lower classes of the ancient kingdom.
At this time, the middle-class people of the ancient country, as well as some middle- and upper-class freemen and small slave owners, all felt that something was wrong, but they were the most powerless class, and they were no longer able to resist the slaughter plan of the upper class.
The upper echelons of the ancient kingdom had already transferred more than 300,000 people to the underground city at this time, and the remaining strata of the ancient kingdom were no match for those black-clothed warriors with supernatural powers.
Finally. The king of the ancient kingdom couldn't wait, he sealed off the entire ancient kingdom on earth, and then set up a huge evil circle in the city, and then began a massacre.
The process of the massacre is not described in detail, but at the very end, the population of the ground city has been slaughtered, and even the black-clothed guards have more than 99% dead. There were only more than 100 black-clothed guards left who were absolutely loyal to the king, and these more than 100 people and the kings of the ancient kingdom entered the underground city and then closed the city.
But the elders and upper echelons of other ancient kingdoms underground. But he became more and more afraid of the king of the ancient country.
Since the king of the ancient kingdom slaughtered 600,000 people in the ancient kingdom, most of the bad karma has been concentrated on him and the black-clothed warriors under him.
And because of the transfer characteristics of bad karma, coupled with the fact that more than 10,000 people in the ancient country personally killed nearly 100 subordinates with the highest concentration of bad karma. At least sixty percent of the bad karma of killing 600,000 people was concentrated on the king of the ancient kingdom alone.
The consequences of a huge unimaginable amount of negative karma concentrated in one person. It's that the king of the ancient kingdom is becoming more and more like a monster, he is somewhat similar to those half-human and half-god demons in ancient Egyptian mythology, and he is getting more and more out of the boundaries of human beings.
The other upper-level leaders of the 300,000 people in the underground city, because they were afraid that this king would continue to demonize, and also because they were afraid that he would snatch power, be truly immortal, and become the master of the underground city forever, planned a coup d'Γ©tat, and after a difficult battle, finally killed the remaining hundred absolutely loyal black-clothed warriors of the king of the ancient country, and turned them into demigods (demons?). The king of the ancient city was sealed.
In order to seal the deified (demonized) body of the king of this ancient country, they used the powerful power of special ores produced underground to open up a cliff 3,000 meters underground and build a tomb.
In this tomb, the half-demonized bodies of the black-clothed guards of the twelve evil karma of the kings of the ancient kingdom were sealed, as well as the remnants of the kings of the ancient kingdom.
The body of the king of the ancient kingdom was sealed in the tomb sealed by the great wizard of the underground kingdom, and outside was the coffin of twelve powerful demonized black-clothed guards, and at the same time, the evil karma vessels with mana created by powerful evil karma were buried here, all to suppress the remains of the powerful ancient king.
In addition, there are various powerful mechanisms around the tomb, and if anyone does not know the correct way to open the tomb, they will be brutally killed by these mechanisms.
When the craftsmen built the mausoleum, they also carved the cause and effect of the whole thing into murals and ancient texts, which were recorded on both sides of the tunnel leading to the tomb to warn those who tried to open the seal of the tomb......
β¦β¦
The murals on both sides of the cave where Su Peng and others passed recorded such a story.
Although Su Peng and the others didn't know the writing of the ancient country, they saw a general idea from the murals.
For example, in the murals, the portraits of people of different classes are different, the low-level slaves only have one white trouser to wear, the high-level slaves gradually increase the number of clothes, the upper-class characters will have all kinds of gold ornaments, and the first appearance of the king is sitting on the golden throne, and the pattern of the portrait is unique.
In these wars, the words are vivid, the demons impart knowledge and other details are also depicted in great detail, and the amount of evil power that can be obtained by killing people is made of black paint, which reminds Su Peng of bad karma at a glance.
In short, this mural has a strong pictographic ability, and it is almost impossible to see the general story through words.
Ouyang Qing and the others did not have a bad understanding ability, and they also saw what kind of place this place was through the record of this mural.
"Brother, according to the murals, we are now in the cemetery of the king of the ancient country, and what we are walking through now is the tunnel of the cemetery."
Ouyang Qing looked at the murals on both sides of the wall that had become scarce, and said to Su Peng.
"Hmm...... Besides, we're almost going into the burial chamber, because the frescoes have been reduced a lot, how far are we going into this tunnel? β
Su Peng looked around and asked Ouyang Qing.
Ouyang Qing thought for a moment and said, "It's almost more than one hundred and fifty zhang, more than four hundred steps." β
Su Peng nodded, that is to say, now this place is more than four hundred meters away from the suspended cliff outside.
"If nothing else, this is the place where the various mechanisms mentioned in the mural exist...... However, we didn't find anything abnormal, maybe someone who came before us, knew the method of cracking the mechanism here, and cracked all the mechanisms. β
Su Peng looked ahead and said to Ouyang Qing.
"Oh? You mean President Yang Xi that woman? β
Ouyang Qing listened and asked Su Peng.
Su Peng nodded and said, "Since that woman can find that huge pebble-like stone and open the seal here, it may mean that they have more information, although they may not know the city above, but they know this tomb very well, and it seems that they should have cracked the mechanism inside...... We'd better speed it up, or they'll take away the benefits of this catacomb. β
Ouyang Qing listened, nodded, and quickened his pace forward.
Su Peng also quickened his pace, and he also had a hunch that the person from Zixia Gate he was looking for should be in the depths of this tomb.
Because Su Peng observed all the way, in the entire city, except for the place where he encountered the dark green walking corpse, there was no place where a master of his senior brother's level could be trapped, and the person who was trapped underground here, suspected to be Zixiamen, was not quite like a sword ghost, but should be one of his uncles and uncles.
Since he is an uncle and uncle, his martial arts should not be much worse than that of the senior brother, and since those places can't trap the senior brother, they must not be able to trap him.
But in fact, he was indeed trapped underground, so these places he encountered, this tomb, was the easiest place to trap a peerless master inside.
After all, the billions of catties of cliffs, if there is no special method to hang it, it is no longer possible for human beings to break it.
It may be the person who is the uncle and uncle of Zixiamen, who should be trapped in the tomb.
Thinking of this, Su Peng quickened his pace, walked at the front of the escort team, and walked inside.
Su Peng and the others walked forward, and sure enough, they encountered several places that seemed to be forks in the road along the way, but those forks in the road, which seemed to have been cracked by people, were all sealed by the falling stone gates, leaving only one route.
Seeing this, Su Peng said in his heart Sure enough, the president named Yang Xi must have known some information about this tomb, and closed the fork in the road that might be dangerous, leaving only one road, which seems to go straight to the tomb.
Su Peng followed the only road, chased all the way, and advanced for almost another five hundred meters after the last one, and finally came to a wide place.
This is a peripheral burial chamber, in the entire burial chamber, a lot of torches are lit at this moment, and there are some special ointments on the walls that have been fermented and evaporated for thousands of years.
When Su Peng and the others rushed here, they found that there were already hundreds of people here.
I saw that President Yang Xiyang, as well as a few black-clothed disciples of the True God Sect, as well as seven or eight white-clothed warlocks, were standing in the center of more than thirty tombs, surrounded by a circular stone coffin.
In front of Chairman Yang, nearly three hundred guards and desert survival experts of Qiuzi Qiancheng were in a trance, as if they were hypnotized, in front of these people, a black-clothed warlock of the True God Sect was constantly muttering something in his mouth, and in front of him, a pale black mist shrouded the more than three hundred guards and desert survival experts of Qiuzi Qiancheng...... (To be continued......)
