Who sealed the realm of life and death

What exactly is the meaning of the mural?

"What does that mean?" I frowned and shifted my gaze to the fourth mural.

The fourth mural depicts a burial scene, with countless small men with unusually large heads carrying a huge coffin into the bottom and placing it in a burial chamber that looks like a walnut.

For some reason, the people who carried the coffins into the catacombs were drawn by dotted lines, as if they were not real people, but souls from hell.

The man in the coffin was carried into the burial chamber, but he did not seem to be dead, because in the painting, the man was actually sitting in the coffin, and his shining eyes stared at the people who carried the coffin.

And the pitch-black knife was inserted on top of the coffin, although the mural was very simple and crude, but I could still see that the pitch-black knife seemed to exude a faint black gas, which looked terrifying and weird.

"What's going on? Could it be that the man wants these guys to bury themselves alive? I said with a slight surprise. Or did he try to hide the knife? What kind of knife is this inky knife? Could it be a magic knife? ”

I muttered to myself as I turned my gaze to the next mural.

The content of this fifth painting is very strange, and it seems that it has nothing to do with the content of the previous four murals.

It depicts a strange monkey with six heads, four hands, two tails, and a pair of wings. Although the strange monkey is depicted, for some reason, it gives people the feeling that this monkey seems to be naturally formed. Not only that, but what is even more strange is that each of the monkey's six heads corresponds to one thing, from left to right: light, darkness, waves, fire, wind, and rocks.

And its two tails seem to be two big rivers with turbulent water, and from the picture, the monkey's tail is actually a zigzag water ripple, and there seem to be people in it taking advantage of the boat to go upstream.

In the picture, the river is raging and the waves are raging, flowing endlessly in the dark underground, as if it is about to swallow up everyone and everything that enters it.

Strangely enough, the flow of the river is not static, but changes its course and flows in the other direction within a certain period of time. But no matter how it changes, it ends up in one of the heads of the monster monkey.

I looked at this fifth mural for a long time, and finally sighed and said to myself, "Is the story my grandfather told me true?" This round of macaques didn't just steal the dust swallower back then to help that mortal, it also had its own selfishness? Something strange is going to happen to this round of macaques head to tail, and it seems that this is the case now, if we want everything to go back to the way it was, then we have to separate the damn monkey head and tail. So how do you separate the end of it? How do I find the position of its head? Where am I now? ”

I thought to myself as I moved my gaze to the last mural.

This last mural is a remnant. The right side of the mural had been smashed with a heavy object, and judging from the edge of the falling debris from the stone wall, it probably wasn't a long time ago, maybe just a few hours ago.

Thinking of this, I looked back at the man in black lying on the ground, and scolded in my heart: "Grandma's! Why did you smash this mural? ”

But in my heart, the content of the mural is still very important to me at this time. I gritted my teeth and slowly crouched on the ground, trying to put back the pieces that had fallen on the ground one by one.

However, the destruction of this last mural is really a bit serious, I fought for a long time, and there are still two fragments that cannot be found, as for the content of the mural, I can only vaguely see the approximation.

In this last mural, there is a man standing in the middle of a red pool, and the red water seems to be blood, surrounding this man, who is tall and thin and looks like a man, and I see him standing with his hands raised high, dragging something in his hands, as for what it is, I don't know, because the key part does not know where it has gone.

And as the man in the pool of blood lifted the object, a stone door opened, and at this time, a person walked into the stone gate, as for who walked into the stone gate, and what was behind the stone gate, it is completely unknown.

I looked at the six murals in front of me, looked back and forth many times, and finally let out a long sigh and said to myself leisurely: "If the first four murals say that there is a person who once killed King Xuanwen with that black long knife, and seized the power of the sun god, and summoned the soul from hell. But why did this man let these souls bury themselves underneath him? What kind of knife is this knife? The worst part is, what does this last mural really mean? What is this place? What was that man holding in his hand? ”

I squatted on the ground and thought about it, but I didn't hear the sound of the stone door for a while, and when I found it, the stone door was still open with a gap. Shocked, I first put the black mask in my hand on my head, and then hurriedly lay down next to the corpses of the people who were also dressed in black.

And just as I was lying down, a man also dressed in black walked in slowly, followed by two more people.

The man in black who walked in front turned out to be a cripple, and he seemed to have a hard time walking, his left foot took a step forward first, and his right foot was dragging it along.

The way this guy walks is strenuous and ugly, as if he has used all his strength with every step.

The man in black walked in step by step, stopped in front of the wall full of Einstein's time formula, he slowly turned around, looked at the two me and ice behind him at some point, and said in an extremely hoarse and strange voice: "Do you want to go out?" ”

Although the man in black tried to disguise his voice, I could still hear it immediately, and this person was none other than I, who had just been separated from me.

"Why did Ice hurt her leg too? What happened to her after the two of us were separated just now? Seeing Ice like this, I couldn't help but be extremely worried, and I thought to myself, "What is Ice for?" Why did she bring these two people here? Could it be that something happened to her? ”

Thinking of this, I held my breath and didn't dare to move, for fear that the three people in the room would find out about my existence, while my eyes were fixed on Ice, who was dressed in black.

I only heard Ice ask again word by word in her hoarse voice, "Do you want to get out of here?" ”

"Of course!" The other I looked at Ice in black and said, "But why should I believe you?" ”

"You must trust me!" Ice, dressed in black, said.

Although I couldn't see Ice's eyes at this time, from her tone, I seemed to hear an indescribable sadness and sadness, which seemed to be reluctant, as if she was saying goodbye.

"Why do I have to believe you?" At that time, I asked slowly.

"Because, I don't want you two to die here." Ice, dressed in black, said slowly. "You just need to remember that I didn't mean to harm you."

"Then how do you get out of here?" The other ICE looked at me first, and then at ICE in black, and she seemed to notice the change in her tone, and after a long time, she asked coldly.

"It's a labyrinth, a place of wireless loops, you're obviously aware of that!" Ice, dressed in black, said slowly. At this point, Ice deliberately paused, she didn't continue, but looked at the other two people quietly, she seemed to be waiting, waiting for their reactions, waiting for them to ask, waiting for them to listen.

After a long time, Ice in black nodded, she seemed to be very satisfied, very satisfied with the focused attitude of the two people opposite, she sighed slowly, and said leisurely: "You didn't ask who I was, perhaps, you have guessed who I am from the beginning." You guys are smart! So, from now on, I hope you can remember what I said clearly, and I will only say it once, because I can only say it once. ”

"Why can you only say it once?" The other one asked out of the blue.

"Because I'm running out of time!" Ice, dressed in black, sighed slowly.

"Time is running out? What time? The other asked, surprised.

"I don't have time to explain this to you right now." Ice, who was dressed in black, said a little angrily. She was obviously not satisfied with the other question, and she suddenly said loudly, "If you don't want to die here, shut me up!" ”

Ice's tone in black was very strong, she was dressed roughly, and it felt like a mad female leopard, roaring at her prey, so frightened that the other me really didn't speak for a while.

Ice dressed for a long time before she slowly continued, "Do you remember the stone tablet that was sealed in the pavilion? ”

"Naturally, I remember!" Another ICE said coldly: "Isn't that stele the story of the wheel macaque recorded on it?" ”

"It's not! You are wrong! Although there is a stele of the wheel macaque written on it, it does not record the deeds of the wheel macaque. Ice, dressed in black, said word by word.

"What? Isn't it about the macaques? And when it was written? The other I asked in surprise.

"That's a demarcation monument!" Ice, who was dressed in black, said coldly.

"What? Boundary Monument? What is the boundary? The other I asked in surprise.

"The realm of life and the realm of death!" Ice, dressed in black, said and turned around slowly. She lowered her head slowly, and she didn't know if she was talking to herself, or to two people, but she muttered: "The sky is shaking, the ground is panicking, and when you enter the ghost, it is difficult to return to your hometown." The sky is long, the earth is long, once you enter the drunken capital, the ghost has no life, and the person is broken. ”

"What do you mean by that?" The other I said as I looked at Ice in black.

Dressed in black, Ice didn't seem to hear what the other me was saying, she just let out a long sigh and continued: "The reason why the stele was sealed is because it is not a biography engraved on it, but an ancient incantation, a deadly incantation, and whoever sees this incantation will surely fall into an endless cycle of reincarnation until death. ”

"A mysterious spell?" The other asked coldly.

"Yes!" Dressed in black, Ice said slowly: "Everyone who enters here will be sucked dry of blood by this space in an accelerated time, turning into a dried corpse, and those sucked blood will gather together to become a pool of blood. If you want to get out of here, you have to ......"

Ice, who was dressed in black, said this, suddenly paused, as if she was blocked by something in her throat, she was speechless for a while, and it took a long time for her to breathe a sigh of relief, and slowly continued: "There must be one who sacrifices himself, using his own flesh and blood as a sacrifice, to complete the curse, so that the other can get out of the open door." ”
