Chapter 408: Underwater Sacrifice

The fog has lifted. Looking up, the overhead is hazy, like clouds in the sky, obscuring the circle of stone steps, and it is difficult to see the way from coming.

On the side of the stone wall in front of us, a wooden door appeared, and an iron ring was attached to the door, just like the wooden door we found in the ancestral hall.

This wooden door is a long time old, and you can vaguely see the fire flickering inside through the crack in the door.

I was in high spirits with the fat man, and at the same time a little nervous, not knowing what was in this wooden door.

Pull the iron ring on the door, and the wooden door creaks open. The scene in front of us couldn't help but surprise us.

It was a huge rotunda, and the surrounding walls were brightly lit with torches.

In the center of the hall is a pool, the water in the pool is calm, but it is a turquoise color, which is clearly the sea.

On the ground around the waterhole, strange patterns are drawn, which also show a circular distribution, spreading in circles, like ripples, and like a formation map.

These patterns look like they are all sea creatures such as dragons and fish, and they are not lifelike, but abstract in style, which makes people feel indescribably weird.

Around the hall, seven stone pillars are also erected. These stone pillars are tall and sturdy, each of which is seven or eight meters high, as if reaching to the sky, and they are also carved with all kinds of mysterious patterns and symbols that cannot be described, and there are faint wisps of light.

Since I entered the industry, I have seen many strange things with the fat man, and according to the layout of this place, it goes without saying that this should be an altar.

Strangely enough, we could still hear the sound of the tide surging in our ears, and according to the location, the altar was actually set up on the bottom of the sea.

What's even more surprising is that four of the seven stone pillars are tied to people, namely the long-missing photo maniac and Da Xiong, as well as the two Korean guys who were attacked yesterday afternoon.

They were tied to stone pillars with thick hemp ropes, like tying rice dumplings, and their mouths were gagged, and they were all pale and writhing.

When they saw me and the fat man come in, they writhed more vigorously and whimpered incessantly.

Saving people is important, we don't have time to think about it, so we take the lead in running to the nearest photo maniac and try to untie the rope on her body.

We only had a Swiss Army knife in our backpack, and the fat man pulled it out to cut the ropes. Who knew that these hemp ropes were too thick and tied too tightly, and they were cut for a while.

The photo frenzy writhed even harder, her mouth whining, and I knew she was trying to speak, so I hurriedly removed the rag from her mouth.

It was at this moment that I vaguely caught a glimpse of a small iron door behind the stone pillar that bound her.

This iron gate is in the shape of a fence, and it is dark inside, and the sound of the tide surging is coming from this iron gate, which should be an exit to the outside world.

"Be careful...... There are people here! ”

The photographer who had been gagged off her rag became frightened, and her voice was hoarse, and she said to us with difficulty.

Before I could finish speaking, I felt the ghost shadow shake around me, and a cold light came out of the slash and slashed down my head......

Someone sneak attacked!

Saying that it was too late, it was fast, my reaction speed and physical skills had already far surpassed that of superhumans, and at the moment I stepped on the Tianxuan step, my body swung backwards, avoiding the edge, and at the same time, my right leg was like a long whip, breaking through the air and throwing it out, right in the shoulder of the black shadow that came from the sneak attack.

I heard the black shadow scream, and in an instant my feet staggered, and I kicked out five or six meters and sat on the ground. After a crisp clang, the cold light dissipated, and the sharp knife in his hand fell to the ground.

At the same time as this guy sneaked up on me, a black shadow came out from behind us, and ran towards the fat man with a clear goal. The black shadow also held a dagger in his hand, and the sharp blade wiped towards the back of the fat man's neck......

The fat man is not a vegetarian, and his hands burst out in an instant after shrinking his neck and hiding his head, and he locked the wrist of the black shadow with one hand.

Then he shouted loudly and threw a blow over the shoulder, like a broken pocket, and immediately knocked the attacker to the ground in front of him.

His speed was extremely fast, and this series of movements was all in one go, until the black shadow fell firmly, and his head was smashed on the hard ground, and he fainted without snorting, and the dagger in his hand fell off.

Don't look at the attack was defused by us in an instant, and I didn't dare to underestimate the enemy, so I rushed over and stepped on the back of the black shadow who fell to the ground and wailed, and cut off its hands to subdue it.

The fat man picked up the dagger on the ground, cut the hemp rope that tied the photographer, and put her down.

Then he threw the rope at me and tied up with me the two sneak attackers, one wounded and one unconscious.

If you look closely, we've all seen these two people, the two mysterious people who were captured in the previous sneak attack on the camp and then committed suicide.

Although these two people are not very good, after all, they have died once in front of our eyes, and now the reappearance of the dragon and tiger is inevitably shocking.

They do have some kind of ability that we don't know about, and they can be resurrected after death. Creatures that can come back from the dead are out of the realm of people, and I'm even considering whether "they" is more appropriate.

The photo maniac told us that she originally got up early in the morning and went up the mountain to take pictures, but she didn't know why she felt numb in her back, and then she didn't know anything.

When she woke up, she was tied to a stone pillar here, and it was these two mysterious people who had been guarding her.

The photomaniac realizes that he has been kidnapped. She is a journalist with strong logical skills, and she began to try to communicate with the two with emotion and reason.

But no matter how she asked, the two mysterious men only said that the reason for kidnapping her was fate, not for revenge or wealth, and the environment here was like an altar, which made her puzzled.

The photo maniac also said that in fact, these two mysterious people feed her water and food every day, and they don't feel like that kind of fierce and evil person. Soon after, Daxiong was also arrested, and then two Korean guys followed.

As the number of people increased, the two mysterious people seemed to be reluctant to communicate with each other, or they felt that the chatter of a photo frenzy was too annoying, so all four of them were gagged.

After finishing his speech in one breath, he looked at me and the fat man and asked puzzled.

"Who are you two? Why is there such a good skill? What about the others? ”

I smiled wryly and said that now was not the time to tell a story. The first priority is to find out what all this is going on, and what is the real purpose of their arrest and this altar.

We loosened the two Koreans and the big bear in turn.

As for the experience of being kidnapped, the two Koreans could only speak the simplest Chinese, and they even spoke with comparisons, which were basically the same as what the old man in Taiji clothes said before, and omitted to mention it.
