Mysterious sacrifice to show the stone gate

Strange bidding for the Golden City

Wu Fan lay in front of the altar, groaning in despair, his blood flowing all over the ground, and a strange and strange pattern flowed along the crack in the ground, which was both like a mysterious incantation and like a painting of death.

Countless dark red vipers rolled, and hundreds of corpse spirits with red eyes seemed to be attracted by blood, and as if they were summoned by a spell on the ground, covering his entire body in an instant.

At the moment when he was completely overwhelmed by the snakes, Wu Fan looked at my side in pain, his eyes full of pain, despair, resentment and hatred.

I lowered my head slowly, I didn't look at Wu Fan again, or more accurately, at that moment I didn't dare to look directly at Wu Fan's eyes that were full of hatred and curse.

After a few seconds, I let out a sigh of relief, and then turned my gaze to the side of ice, and found that ice had slowly stood up at this time, and then she whispered, "It's time!" ”

"Is it time? When is it? I asked, surprised.

Instead of answering me, Ice turned her head and smiled at me, mysterious and meaningful, as if she had a lot to say to me and couldn't speak.

At the same time, the wooden boat mound that was originally stuck between the cracks in the cliff shook violently, and then, the sound of violent friction and wood breaking came.

Then, the wooden boat began to slowly tilt downward, and it didn't take long for this ancient ship mound that was not known to be stuck here for hundreds or thousands of years to begin to slowly fall at an angle close to 70 degrees.

"This ...... This ancient mound is about to collapse! I said in amazement.

As soon as my words came out, a loud cracking sound, accompanied by billowing smoke, drowned out my words.

And at that moment, Ice suddenly grabbed my hand and jumped towards the ancient ship that began to slide into the endless abyss.

All I felt was that as soon as my feet stepped onto the board, a tremendous impact mixed with a suffocating feeling of weightlessness spread throughout my body.

If, you ask me, what exactly was that at the time?

I may not be able to put into words how I feel at once, but if you want to experience it, please do three roller coasters on your own, plus two bungee jumps, and you'll understand.

The sensation of this rapid fall almost took my breath away.

I clung to a wooden fence on the right side of the deck with one hand, fearing that if I let go, I would fall into the endless abyss, and there would be no place to die.

With the other hand, he kept throwing away the dark red vipers that had fallen to me.

"Ice, are you alright?" I kept shouting as I shook off the snake that was wrapping around me.

However, as soon as my voice came out, it was blown away by the huge air current, and I shouted a few times, and later, I couldn't even hear my words.

I was just bungee jumping for about 30 seconds before the huge wooden boat stopped abruptly.

It seemed to hit something, and then, with a violent jolt, the ancient ship finally fell to the ground after a jolt.

I lay on the deck, gasping for air, my right hand, which had been clutching the fence so tightly that I could barely feel it.

The previous surging group of snakes and corpses had long since disappeared at this time, and occasionally one or two dark red poisonous snakes swam past me, and they attacked me without any flaws, just blindly thinking about running for their lives, as if they would die if they stayed in this place for a while.

I lay on the deck for more than ten minutes, and I vaguely heard someone calling my name.

"Tianyi! Tianyi! "That's ICE's voice.

When I heard that she was calling me, I let out a sigh of relief and thought: she's fine!

Immediately, I sat up slowly, and then slowly climbed over the gravel that had fallen on the board, and walked in the direction where the sound of ice was coming from.

Ice wasn't far from me, only a dozen meters away at most, and when I walked over, I realized that she was actually standing in front of a huge stone door.

The stone gate is eight meters high, and due to the long period of time, the stone gate is covered with dark green moss, and many places are also exposed with black-brown mottles.

The stone door is in the shape of a counterpart, and in the center of each of the left and right doors is a strange statue of a three-eyed human head, which glares angrily, overlooking the incoming outsiders.

In addition, there are many strange characters carved on this stone gate, they are like tadpoles, and they are like small snakes that are winding and rugged, and they are densely packed almost all over the stone gate.

However, there are dozens of circles of densely packed small characters in the lower third of the center of this stone gate. Judging from the traces of weathering, it is obvious that these small characters were engraved later.

Not only that, but these small characters are not just those strange characters like small snakes, on the contrary, they are actually Chinese characters that I am familiar with, although they are in traditional Chinese, but the content in them is something I recognize.

What's even worse is that the content recorded in this circle of small characters is very similar to my family heirloom Qin Long secret technique.

Seeing this, I not only exclaimed, "This ...... What's going on? Why does this place have all this content? Who carved it? Could it be that our family's Qin Dragon Secret Technique came from here? ”

…… ……

United States!

September 1989!

Chicago Underground Black Market Fair!

An old man in a straight suit with silver hair stood in the middle of the stage and said slowly in his slightly courtly English: "We have invited you here today to auction three things. ”

"What is it? So mysterious? A middle-aged fat man with blond hair said with a grin.

Hearing the fat man's voice, the people around him also shouted loudly, "That's right! What exactly is it? So mysterious? ”

The fat man looked around him proudly, then took a cigar from the hand of a horse boy beside him, lit it, put it in his mouth, took a few big puffs, and said leisurely, "I said Field, you always like to complicate simple things." I remember Chinese there was a saying that was very good, what is it called......"

The fat man tapped his shiny head with his fat hand holding a cigar, thought for a moment, and said, "Oh, yes, I remember!" Chinese often say, open the skylight and say bright words! Can't you make it clearer? ”

"That's right! Is there anything you can make clear? The people around him said loudly.

The old man named Field standing in the middle of the empty field watched the people around him shouting, and he did not immediately explain, but slowly moved his gaze to the fat man.

Although Field still had a professional smile on his face, everyone could see that there was no smile in his eyes, on the contrary, his gaze was as sharp as a knife at this time.

The fat man was originally very proud, but at this time, he couldn't help but take half a step back when he was stared at by Field. However, as soon as his steps moved, he immediately realized that he could not lose in such an occasion, so he coughed lightly and glared back with his gaze.

However, as soon as his eyes met Field's wolf-like gaze, he immediately and unconsciously avoided them, not daring to look directly again.

Field stared at the fat man for a moment, and when he saw that he was not speaking, he looked around at the others around him, and at this moment, the originally bustling basement room was suddenly as quiet as if it were a tomb, and not even the slightest sound could be heard.

Seeing that no one was interrupting him, Field nodded with satisfaction, resumed his professional smile, and said slowly: "The three things I want to auction for you today are a message, a map, and ......."

"What else?" After the crowd, an Asian woman dressed in black asked aloud.

When Field heard the woman's voice, he couldn't help frowning, and he paused, his eyes unconsciously glancing at the figure sitting in the shadow in the corner of the room.

The man didn't speak, just coughed slightly.

Field understood, looked at the woman, and said softly, "There is another person." ”

"Alone?" The woman asked aloud.

"Yes! This lady, you heard it right, is a person! Field smiled.

"So, is this man alive or dead!" The woman asked.

"He was still alive when we delivered, and whether he was alive or dead, intact or fragmented, was up to you." Field laughed.

"But why are we buying these things?" A middle-aged man of Indian descent asked.

"Because ......," Field said with a deliberate pause, he looked around for a while, a little deliberately playing with the lawsuit, seeing that everyone's attention was attracted to him, and then slowly continued: "Because, they have a close relationship with a golden city!" ”

"What? The City of Gold? Hearing these four words, everyone present began to stir.

"I'll give five million, and I want all three of these things!" One began to raise his hand and shout.

"I'll give 10 million!"

"I'll give 20 million!"

"I'll give 50 million!"

……

As the guy got taller and taller, Field nodded with satisfaction, but he still glanced at the person behind him, intentionally or unintentionally, and after the same person coughed, Field interrupted everyone's shouting: "Everyone! I am delighted by your enthusiasm. This time, though, it's not a name mark. ”

"What's that?" The fat man from before asked loudly.

"It's a dark mark! Each of you writes the price you want to bid and what you bid on on the sign in your hand, and then ......" Field waved his hand, and a man in a suit brought a large box next to him, Field patted the box, and then said: "Then put it in here, as for who will win the bid in the end, tomorrow is the same time, I will reveal it here, I hope you will not be absent." ”

After Field's words were finished, he made a gesture of please, and the people on the sidelines began to write their favorite things and prices on white handcards and put them into the boxes in the hands of the men in suits.

However, unlike others, the Asian woman did not put the card in the box, she wrote a few words on the card, and went straight to Field.

"Is there anything wrong, ma'am?" Field said with a smile.

"Give!" The woman said, looking at Field.

"If you want to bid for trouble, it's better to put it in the box, which is fairer! I ......" The woman didn't give Field a chance to say more, but simply stuffed the card in her hand with a black cloth-wrapped object into Field's hand, then turned around and strode away.
