Chapter 344: Sword God Ruins - Deception (I)
Yubing's investigation began as far as the eye could see—the empty ear chamber.
The first is the fresco overhead; The golden angel of Changchang, with his white bare feet stepping on the clouds, holding a harp and a garland in his hand, is a very classic decorative fresco. The scriptures carved on the side wall are also the long-standing 'blessings of the dead life' of the angel clan, could it be that the goddess of poison believes in the angelic god?
Yu Bing recalled the image of the poisonous insect and the evil bug that poured into his mind; It stands to reason that most of the believers in angel gods are kind and pious, but the gods who inherit the position of the god of 'poison' actually believe in pure and righteous angel gods...... It's very incompatible no matter how you think about it.
Could it be that this was not built by the goddess of poison, but that she occupied the magpie's nest?
Yu Bing stood at the door of the ear chamber and looked out, and on the left and right hands was a completely symmetrical grand corridor, and there was no end in sight. He was worried about Qiu Jiu'er, and after thinking about it, he returned to his lover first.
Jiu'er is very well-behaved when she falls asleep, rarely turning over or moving, and puts this cosonic bell on her chest, and she will know immediately if there is any movement.
After getting ready, Yu Bing left the ear chamber and entered the corridor on the left......
*****
The angel clan has created a number of gods, in addition to the well-known 'angel god', 'holy angel god' and 'guardian angel god' are also quite well-known among the people. The functions and beliefs of these gods are very different. The righteous worship the holy angel god and strive to punish the evil and eliminate the evil, and the gentle people worship the guardian angel god and ask for peace in their lives; Swords, harps, shields, doves...... There are many magic weapons and spirit animals that angels and gods love, but what kind of symbol is the lantern?
Yes, each of the angelic statues in the corridor of various shapes holds a lantern, which is either held, lifted, or supported.
Thousands of years have not cast a trace of dust on the red carpet, and the warm light of the chandelier echoes the white light in the lantern, as if the breath of healing the soul is scattered in the air; Yu Bing's wrist holding the compass relaxed a lot, and his intuition told him that there was no danger here, and it was even a blessed place for cultivating the soul.
He touched the cosonic bell and the soul lamp in his pocket, and everything showed that Qiu Jiu'er was safe. With a long exhale, he walked up the winding staircase......
And yet—
Two snakes broke through the space, and a graceful figure paced from the double snake spiral, landing gently in the middle of the octagonal ear chamber.
It was a woman in a Mithril mask, with a clear purpose and neat movements. The fingertips under the silver gloves were out of thin air, and the cosonic bell instantly turned into powder, leaving no trace.
Obviously, her target was Qiu Jiu'er, but just as she was about to touch her prey, she unconsciously stopped the silver hand. The pain and high fever caused Qiu Jiu'er to suffer in his sleep, and the corners of his eyes moved slightly, but he could not wake up.
The woman stretched out her hand back, her hesitation was fleeting, as if out of jealousy, she decided not to touch the girl in front of her for the time being, but to rely on space cutting and space operation to carry it. The twin snake spirals lifted her and Qiu Jiu'er together, and soon, there was no more breath in the ear chamber.
*****
If it hadn't been for the passage of the Twin Snake Spiral, Yu Bing would definitely have determined that this was the remains of some angelic deity.
Exit the transept, walk through the dungeon walkway, and go upstairs to the atrium...... This cathedral full of the atmosphere of the sacred continent slowly spreads out in Yu Bing's eyes, and the heirs of the Yu Chamber of Commerce are lamented by the decoration of no expense: the stained glass and mosaics of famous artists are arbitrarily decorated on the inconspicuous walls, and placed in the cold room with statues embellished with gemstone yin beads. None of the ornaments purchased with the immeasurable amount of gold and silver were eligible to be placed in the atrium, but ritual vessels such as chalices, crosses, and Bibles were regularly arranged on both sides of the main hall.
But there is no magic circle; The faint power aura only ensured the illumination, temperature, and air, and the top-level magic weapons were also lying in glass boxes, unable to resonate.
The goddess of poison was supposed to want to worship or worship something, but after an hour of exploration, Yu Bing was unable to obtain any valuable information.
"Damn, it's too big here."
Yu Bing looked up and observed, and the corridor that went deep into the main hall was set upstairs, surrounded by elliptical flying arches and spiraled upward. But he couldn't find his way upstairs for a while, and after coming and going, he strayed into the side hall of the puppet choir......
At the same time, Qiu Jiu'er awoke from the fluctuating space. A silver mask carved with wisteria flowers emerges from the hazy vision, and the refreshing aroma of herbs lingers into the nostrils.
The woman noticed it for the first time, and the silver fingertips were a little on Qiu Jiu'er's chest, and in an instant, a gentle cold current spread from the heart veins into the limbs, and the sequelae of using spiritual power, high fever, was neutralized by the cold current. The body seemed to be relieved of a heavy burden, and the refreshing breath made Qiu Jiu'er regain some mobility.
Weak fingertips reached for the woman's hand, "Are you...... Who are you—"
"Huh?"
The poison of lethargy has no effect? At the same time, the woman held Qiu Jiu'er's outstretched palm, and pinched her two fingers fiercely—a stronger neurotoxin suddenly poured into the artery.
There is a hot and sharp pain in the lower abdomen! The purple spar hidden in the dantian burned Qiu Jiu'er's whole body!
This woman is poisoning herself?!
"Get out of here!"
Quickly rolled a foot away, Qiu Jiu'er covered his stomach and got up. The blood-colored tip of the demon knife pointed directly at the silver mask, and if it weren't for the hot sweat soaking through the forehead, it would really be a bit of a deterrent.
"I didn't expect you to still be a poisonous cultivator." The woman's voice was still so old-fashioned, "Okay, really...... Very good. ”
Qiu Jiu'er was completely panicked in her heart, and could only drink inwardly, "Who are you!" Why are you here?! ”
"I am the one who saved you, the guardian spirit of this ruin." The woman put her hands behind her back, and her military-like standing posture did not show the meaning of the attack.
But Qiu Jiu'er didn't dare to relax, "You poisoned me." ”
"Poison, medicine, has always been a word. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be able to stand up right now. ”
She was right, it would have been impossible for the body drained by the Codex Woman to stand.
But what is this? After Wang Laoxi, Ghost Thorn Demon Teng Danbi, and Yishenjiao Dogya, another good person who sends warmth? The Codex Girl has tried her best to get to this point, and the person in front of her is the end of the door?
A man who uses a mask to hide his true face - his intuition tells Qiu Jiu'er that he can't believe it.
"You can not believe me, but you should believe her."
A candle was lit behind the woman, and the dimly lit space was clear. Qiu Jiu'er's gaze also extended with the light, and the shock made her trance for a moment, until the stinging pain came from her eyeballs.
Ten zhang away, stands the statue of the twenty-ninth goddess of poison.
Qiu Jiu'er hurriedly lowered his gaze (avoiding looking directly at the idol). But the moment she turned her head, she saw the mysterious woman standing next to her right hand at some point!
"No living creature can lie under the idol." The woman stared at the embarrassed retreating Qiu Jiu'er, and said lightly, "Go, come with me to talk under the statue." ”
Qiu Jiu'er looked at the woman's back, kept her distance, and followed cautiously.
"To put it bluntly, I hope you can inherit His Highness's protection and inheritance, and as a price, fulfill His Highness's unfulfilled long-cherished wish."
With the idol above, there can be no falsehood in the Word. Qiu Jiu'er also asked reasonably, "What is His Highness's wish?" ”
"The demise of the Hot Flashes Sect."
"Why do you think that what Your Highness can't do, I can do?"
"You should be aware that you are different. Besides, if you can't do it, Your Highness and I have nothing to lose. ”
Qiu Jiu'er took a deep breath, "I don't seem to have the right to refuse. ”
"No, you have. Promise it or not, and I'll let you go safely. ”
Qiu Jiu'er seemed to see the evil smile under her silver mask.
"You can go, he stays."
