Chapter 64: The Woman in the Black Robe
Suddenly, standing on it, Huang Na, who was waiting a little impatiently, spoke, she gently called Xu Ran's name, and then pointed to the top of her head and said.
"There is a rope on it that seems to lead directly to the top of the mountain. Shall we go up and have a look? ”
She was asking what Xu Ran meant.
Hearing this, Xu Ran woke up from his memories and slowly raised his head to look at Huang Na who was standing on it.
I saw her eyes looking straight ahead, as if she had seen something incredible.
However, after Xu Ran saw her strange gaze, he also looked in that direction.
I saw that above Xu Ran's head, there were several long stone pillars, with a height of about five to six meters. The stone pillars are carved with countless strange images, and those images do strange movements, as if they were pictures in ancient sacrifices, which are both mysterious and terrifying.
On the opposite side of the stone pillar, there is also a stone pillar of the same height and image, and a one-meter-long rope is connected in the middle, and a long rope is hung under the rope, which extends to the top of the mountain.
And directly above Xu Ran there was a large basket, reddish-brown, crawling with maggots, and it was estimated that those corpses were transported down from the mountain with this basket.
Seeing these strange stone pillars, Xu Ran's eyes couldn't help but lower his head again, looking at the blood lake formed by the accumulation of corpses.
It is clearly a place where bones are buried, and the top of the mountain is most likely a place of sacrifice.
Xu Ran thought about it and suddenly made up his mind.
"There must be something in here that we don't know, whether it's for humanity or for other purposes, and we should get to the bottom of it."
"Okay," Huang Na smiled lightly, "I just like brave people like you."
Xu Ran shook his head helplessly, what Huang Na saw was only his surface, in fact, he was like most people, sometimes he was quite weak.
Having made up his mind, Xu Ran rushed up from under the blood lake.
Huang Na glanced at Xu Ran and walked up with the lead.
The two followed the stone pillar until they climbed to the top of the mountain.
On the altar at the top of the mountain, among the faint finches, there were several torches lit, and a few figures whispered on them.
It took Xu Ran and Huang Na about twenty minutes to climb near the top of the mountain and lurk.
The two of them heard the sound of conversation coming from the top of the mountain, but because it was not in Chinese, Xu Ran didn't know what they were talking about.
It's Huang Na, as soon as she goes up to the top of the mountain, the whole person is obviously not quite right, Xu Ran glanced at her, and felt that she seemed to have something to hide from herself.
She seemed to understand what the men were talking about, and was listening intently to the conversation.
So Xu Ran couldn't help but glance at Huang Na more.
It seems that she appeared by her side with some kind of purpose.
His thoughts were slightly confused, so he glanced at the tall trees nearby, turned his mind sideways, and decided to go up to see what was going on.
When the thought fell, I saw him kick the ground with both feet, and the whole person flew to the tree in an instant like an arrow off the string.
Huang Na originally wanted to stop Xu Ran, but Xu Ran's speed was too fast, and as soon as she made a move, she saw Xu Ran jump onto the tree.
So she could only shake her head helplessly and continue to eavesdrop on the content of the conversation between the people.
Suddenly, at the moment when Xu Ran landed on the branch, a pair of cold eyes glanced at Xu Ran's side, and after seeing no one, he moved his gaze back.
Her perception is very sensitive, and she knows that there is movement nearby when she hears a sound.
And at this moment, when Xu Ran saw those bright eyes, he couldn't help but feel his heart fluttering.
Those eyes were very familiar to him, both beautiful and clear, very similar to Huang Jing's eyes, but at this time, there was a hint of ruthlessness in the eyes of the woman here.
I saw that she was wearing a black robe, covering her head from the bottom, with a black hat on her head, and her height was about one meter six or five, and her face could not be seen clearly, but it could be seen that there was a white mask on her face, half of which was hidden in the dark, and half of which was emitting a mysterious light in the dim light of the fire.
Who is she and why is she in such a place?
It's just that while Xu Ran was guessing, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a strange pattern behind her.
A pair of snow-white wings enveloped a fiery red sun.
Seeing that it was this pattern, Xu Ran couldn't help but be shocked, he saw what he didn't want to see the most.
A sign of God's organization.
They did have a conspiracy.
Xu Ran looked to the left along the mysterious woman.
Standing beside the woman was an elderly man, dressed exactly like the woman, except that instead of wearing a mask, he wore a black hat, and a strange face appeared in the light of the fire.
He was bending down and talking respectfully to the woman in front of him, and behind the old man, there were several other people, dressed in the same posture, all bowed over the mysterious woman in unison.
And Xu Ran looked at the black-robed woman, he always felt a familiar figure, her eyes and voice were very similar to Huang Jing in his memory, if he hadn't seen Huang Jing's miserable appearance, he would almost have regarded her as Huang Jing.
Could it be that in this world, there are still people who look similar to Huang Jing?
He asked himself inwardly.
It's just that at this moment, the woman looked in Xu Ran's direction again, stared at it, and then turned her head to talk to the old man next to her for a few words, and then walked away.
But when she said those words in the end, Xu Ran understood the meaning.
He had learned lip language and knew the meaning of the mysterious woman's words.
She was saying that someone was snooping on them in the neighborhood.
Thinking of this, Xu Ran secretly screamed.
Oh no, they found themselves.
So Xu Ran quietly jumped down from the tree.
And Huang Na had already heard the content of their conversation, and knew that the woman had discovered herself, so she looked at Xu Ran anxiously.
As soon as Xu Ran's body fell to the ground, he rushed to Huang Na's position.
At this moment, there were already several black-robed men rushing towards where Xu Ran was just now.
When he saw that the trees were empty, he went back the way he came.
But the mysterious woman stood in the middle of the altar, looking into the depths of the darkness in front of her, frowning and contemplating.
At this moment, Xu Ran and Huang Na had already returned to the vicinity of the Blood Lake.
Although the two of them were out of danger, the level of doubt in their hearts was no less than that of a cat that smelled fishy.
Who built this altar and what was it used for, was it just for sacrifice?
It seems that if you want to know the answer, you have to start with the little girl's corpse.
Thinking of this, the two of them couldn't help but glance at each other, and their thoughts came to one place.
That's the corpse.
The body of a little girl.
Why did they throw the bodies here? Is it just for ease of handling?
Xu Ran jumped down first, and Huang Na followed.
Once again, the two came to the vicinity of the Blood Lake.
