Secret passage stone wall prophecy painting

Scheming ghosts and elves

The one on the far right is a statue of a woman.

I saw it naked, half-lying on the ground, its legs curled together, its plump and seductive chest rising high, its head looking sideways to the sky, its expression distorted and painful.

She held the ground with her left hand, and stretched out her right hand to the sky, but the hand that reached out to the sky was a severed hand, a severed hand that had been cut off from the joint of the elbow.

The old bone stood up and swaggered to the front of the statue, first smiling back at me with a big grin, and then slapping it three times on the base of the statue.

Then, a series of "clicks" came from under the base, apparently some kind of mechanism was touched by this guy.

After hearing this sound, I reflexively took two steps back and began to observe the changes in my surroundings.

"Hey, hey, hey! Little cub, your body is reacting well! The old bone giggled and said, "But don't be afraid! It's not a murderous mechanism, it's just a secret passage. ”

Before the old bone's voice fell, the statue that was firmly embedded in the bottom suddenly moved, only to hear a "click", the statue suddenly lifted up, and then slid backwards for half a meter, and then a dark and dark underground hole appeared in front of several of us.

"Where does this hole lead?" Ice asked, looking at the old bones.

"Coffin!" Old Bone looked at Ice and replied with a big grin.

"Coffin?" Ice frowned and asked, "You mean to say that the other end of this secret passage is a burial chamber?" ”

"It's not a burial chamber, but there are a lot of coffins in there!" Old Bone looked at Ice and said.

When he spoke, he unconsciously raised his eyebrows, obviously very mysterious.

"Where and what?" Ice asked coldly.

"Didn't you say you wanted to drink?" Old Bone said lightly.

"Where's the wine?" Ice asked, looking at the old bones.

"Naturally, there is wine!" Old Bone looked at Ice and said. After he said this, he turned his head to look at me again, and said slowly, "To go or not to go?" ”

"Nature is going! As the saying goes, if you have wine, you don't drink bastards! I rubbed my nose and said.

"Hahahaha! Well, that's good! When the old bone heard my words, he burst out laughing.

After laughing, he suddenly leaned over and burrowed into the dark secret passage.

The passage was dark and narrow, barely big enough for a person to pass through.

A few of us followed closely behind the old bones, and walked slowly forward.

My hand groped gently on the wall of the secret passage, which was sometimes smooth, sometimes rough, and the rough part seemed to have some lines, as if someone had deliberately carved something into the wall during the construction of this secret passage.

"Wait!" After walking some distance, Ice suddenly shouted behind me.

"What's wrong?" The whole secret passage was very dark, there was not a trace of light, and the sudden intrusion of ice really startled me, and I thought something had happened to her, so I hurriedly asked. "Is something wrong?"

"You touch here!" Ice said as she took my hand and pressed my hand against the wall for me to fumble around the wall.

I tried to follow what ICE had just touched, up and down, left and right, back and forth.

At first, I didn't feel anything unusual, but I vaguely felt that the carved wall was like a stone painting.

However, after a few more moments of touching my hand to the right under ICE's guidance, I froze, and then an indescribable chill began to rise up my spine.

This is a mural similar to prophecy, it is very simple to carve, the first few strokes are very powerful, but later, the force is getting lighter and lighter, and there are broken pens in many places, obviously the person who carved it has no strength, or he has reached the end of his life at that time.

There are six people depicted on it, five of them seem to be passing through some kind of extremely narrow passage, four people walk in front, one person is lying behind them at a distance, for fear of being discovered, and there is only one person standing at the far left exit with this scythe held alof, this person is in a hurry to carve all this, and each of them has no facial features, except for the one on the far left, who has carved a mouth on his face, a mouth with extremely upturned corners.

The guy standing at the exit was clearly smiling, and seemed to be smiling happily.

Other than that, there is nothing else in this painting, except for a powerful horizontal line in the lower right corner, and I don't know what this horizontal line means, whether it is a symbol, a text, or some kind of reminder.

"This ...... What does that mean? I asked softly in Ice's ear.

"I don't know!" Ice said softly, "However, at this time, I don't think it's a good thing to encounter such a thing. In short, it's better to be careful. ”

"Hmm!" I frowned and said, "What does this last horizontal line mean?" Is it an unfinished arrow? Is this person telling us to go back? Or does it mean something else? ”

"Hey! Are you still done? Still not leaving? The old bone said impatiently. How? Are you willing to stay in this dark tunnel? ”

"Here we go! I said old bones, why are you in a hurry? Ice's feet are broken, and I'm rubbing her! It's going to be good right away. I said with a smile.

"Woman, it's trouble!" The old bone said angrily.

"Anyway, just be careful! You've always been better at seeing than I do, and I'm sure you can't escape your eyes. I said with a smile. However, if something really happens, leave me alone, you run first! ”

"Do you think I can watch you die?" Ice said coldly.

Although her tone was cold, her words were full of indescribable tenderness.

"It's better for one person to live than two to die!" I said with a smile.

"That's what you think! Not me! Ice said and gave me a push, then continued loudly, "Let's go!" It's a rat hole, it's not a place for people. ”

"You're right, this place is a rat hole!" Old Bones laughed.

"How can there be such a big rat in the world?" I asked with a smile.

"Who says only rats can make holes?" The old bone smiled and said, "Aren't those of us who wander around Yin Mountain no different from very rats? ”

"You mean this is a thief cave?" I asked, surprised.

"It's not a thief hole. It was built by the builders in secret to prevent themselves from being buried alive. It's just that I found it. The old bone paused as he said this, and then, suddenly, quickened his pace, and then a faint light came from a short distance ahead.

"Hahaha! We're here! Old Bone said with a laugh.

Light, for a person who has been in the dark for a long time, is definitely the greatest temptation.

Because light at this time represents not only light, but also hope, a hope for life, a hope for the future.

However, sometimes it is also the greatest danger.

A danger that can be fatal, like the tragedy of a moth to a fire.

And at this time, are we like the moths hovering in the darkness, constantly moving towards the deadly and irresistible fire?

I don't know!

No one knows, either!

Just as no one knows whether the prophecy in the mural of the secret passage is true or not?

And no one knows what is hidden behind that bright fire?

Is it raw?

Or die?

The light, which comes from a few simple torches, brightens up the entire area.

The place where we came out and the place where we entered the secret passage was almost identical, not only the location of the secret passage was under a statue, but even the structure of the entire stone chamber was almost identical.

It's just that the statues in this stone chamber are slightly different.

There are also thirteen statues in this stone chamber, the one in the middle is the tallest and the largest, and the remaining twelve statues are arranged symmetrically on the left and right sides.

I saw that the statue in the middle was a smiling statue.

It has three eyes and six arms, looking up to the sky and laughing, its six arms are divided into up, middle and bottom, and each of these heads holds a human head, each of which has its own expression, some are happy, some are angry, some are sad, and some are laughing.

In addition, the upper body of this statue is wearing a powerful black gold armor, but the lower body does not even have a pair of pants or a pair of shoes, and the bare feet are actually legs of mutton.

And the twelve statues beside it, each of them had no head.

Not only that, but there are also three coffins in this stone room, and the three black lacquer coffins are exactly the same size, shape, color, and material.

"We're here!" After drilling out of the stone path, the old bone said loudly. "Come out!"

"Where is this?" I cautiously followed out of the secret passage.

I walked slowly, for I wasn't sure if the stone wall was a prophecy of the future of a few of us, but the smiling demon was still fresh in my memory.

So, although my mouth kept talking, my feet didn't move a single step.

The old bone waited outside for a long time, and saw that I didn't come out, so he asked loudly outside: "Hey, I said little cub, why haven't you come out yet?" Do you want to live there? ”

"Of course I don't want to live in this dark tunnel, but ......," I said with a sudden pause.

"Just what?" Old Bone asked a little impatiently.

"It's just that I can't figure out one thing?" I asked leisurely.

"Can't figure out one thing? You can't figure out what's going on? Old Bone asked with a frown.

"I can't figure out who the guy behind you is?" I asked word for word.
