Chapter 554: The Praying

Xu Rui walked along the dark passage all the way, turning around in a circle, and a faint uneasiness appeared in his heart, not knowing whether it was right or wrong for him to walk into the secret passage according to the black cat's intentions.

However, the black cat's series of unusual actions did pique his interest, and at least so far he had not encountered any danger.

Now that he is in the tunnel, he can only go all the way to the dark and take a good look at this Gobi church, or the secret of the ghost-faced demon god.

Xu Rui comforted himself while groping his way forward in the dark, and he didn't know how far he had walked, and a dim light suddenly appeared in the passage in front of him, and it seemed to be an exit more than ten meters away.

He was overjoyed, and hurriedly quickened his pace to the exit, looked outside, and listened carefully with his ears sideways for a long time, but found no sign of anyone, so he cautiously went out.

As soon as he got out of the secret passage, he heard a soft sound of "bang" behind him, and when he looked back, he saw that the two walls were slowly closing, covering the secret passage he had just passed through.

Xu Rui's face changed slightly, since he entered this inexplicable church, he felt as if he was shrouded in a mysterious fog, and the faint sense of crisis in his heart became more and more obvious.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the sense of crisis for a moment, and looked around carefully.

It was a small room, with many oil lamps hanging overhead, illuminating the whole room.

The surrounding walls are full of murals related to religion, and Xu Rui does not know much about Christianity, and can only vaguely see the two figures of the Virgin and the Holy Spirit.

Maybe it's a story from the Bible?

Xu Rui muttered in his heart, his eyes fell to another corner, and found that there were rows of benches around the statue of the Holy Spirit in the middle, which were clearly the furnishings of the prayer room, but although the lights were on here, there were no people who came to pray.

Xu Rui frowned, and was about to withdraw his gaze, but was shocked to see a black cat squatting at the foot of the Holy Spirit Statue, which was the one he had seen in the laboratory just now.

The black cat looked at Xu Rui from afar, his face full of impatience, as if to say, "Waste, why are you so slow?" ”

"Am I being despised by a cat?"

Xu Rui's heart once again surged with a sense of absurdity.

Seeing Xu Rui coming, the black cat turned his mind lightly, jumped off the platform and walked towards the passage on the side, looking back at Xu Rui every few steps, as if to say: "Idiot, keep up, huh?" Why haven't you come yet? Can't you walk? What an idiot! ”

"I must be crazy......"

Xu Rui muttered self-deprecatingly, this time he didn't hesitate anymore, and hurriedly followed the footsteps of the black cat.

Following the black cat out of the prayer room, Xu Rui's face suddenly changed slightly, because the corridor in front of him was full of corpses, horizontal and vertical, and blood flowed all over the ground.

Xu Rui frowned and carefully observed everything in front of him, and sniffed with a little blood stain with his fingers, the blood still retained a certain amount of oxygen and did not turn dark red, indicating that these corpses were still alive before a pillar of incense.

There were about twenty or thirty people who died, and judging from the costumes, they should all be horse bandits, and some of the corpses still maintained the posture of stabbing each other's bodies with knives when they died.

But this is the lair of the ghost-faced demon god, and the rebels haven't attacked yet, how can there be a scene of fire and merger?

Or is there also civil strife here?

The more Xu Rui thought about it, the more he couldn't figure it out, and his face became gloomy again.

The black cat, on the other hand, paid no attention to the corpses on the ground, and walked forward on its own, calmly passing between the corpses, the clumps of obstacles could not hinder its grace at all, not even a drop of blood stained its black and shiny fur.

Seeing the black cat drifting away, Xu Rui didn't have time to think about the bloody scene in front of him, and hurriedly followed the footsteps of the black cat.

After passing through the narrow corridor, the corpses on the ground were still stretching forward, and it was unknown how many people had died here.

However, the black cat did not go forward along the path of blood, but raised its paws, gently knocked on the wall around the corner, and then looked at Xu Rui in a daze.

Xu Rui now roughly understood what it meant, walked to the wall that had been knocked by the black cat, groped for a while, and found that a few bricks in the corner of the wall were actually loose.

He hurriedly pulled out the broken blade, gently removed those loose bricks, and another secret entrance to the black hole appeared in front of Xu Rui's eyes.

"Hiss......"

Xu Rui gasped and was amazed, but the black cat didn't wait for him, and took the lead in getting into the hole as soon as it saw it open.

"Hey, where exactly do you want to take me?"

Xu Rui squatted at the entrance of the cave and asked the black cat inside.

But the black cat seemed to treat Xu Rui as air, and didn't answer his interest at all.

Xu Rui's expression was dumbfounded, so he had to follow the black cat into the secret passage.

It's another twisting and turning secret passage, compared to the previous one, this secret passage is even a huge labyrinth, back and forth, tossing and turning, and even every few meters there will be a fork in the road, if it weren't for following the black cat, it must have been lost several times.

Xu Rui even felt that the people who built this church in the first place probably liked hide and seek very much, otherwise they would not have built a good church with so many tricks.

After walking for about a pillar of incense, Xu Rui finally followed the black cat out of the other end of the secret passage, he squinted his eyes and took a closer look, and found that he seemed to be in an attic, but under his feet was not a floor, but a fine and dense iron fence.

Through the fence at your feet, you can see the next floor through the crystal lamp.

"Hey, where is this?"

Xu Rui asked softly, but when he turned his head to look, he found that the black cat that had been leading the way in front had disappeared without a trace.

His heart sank, and he hurriedly searched around for the traces of the black cat, but the black cat seemed to have evaporated from the world, leaving not even a single footprint at all.

"Where did this cat go? What the hell did it lead me to? ”

Just as he was wondering, a soft voice suddenly came from below, as if someone was talking.

Xu Rui suddenly held his breath and looked down on the iron fence.

The lower floor also seems to be a prayer room, the lights are as dim as ever, and under the high wall in front of it is also a statue of Jesus more than a man tall, around which rows of chairs are arranged.

The only difference is that there are two people sitting in the first row of this prayer room, and their backs can be faintly seen from Xu Rui's angle.

From the back, there is a slender figure about a woman, her hands clenched into fists, her head bowed to the statue of Jesus, as if in repentance, and next to her sits a large man, shrouded in black robes.

When he saw this person, Xu Rui's eyes suddenly froze.

This person's appearance seems to be exactly the same as the fake ghost-faced demon god who was killed in the box of the Great Battleland, if that ghost-faced demon god is fake, then this one in front of him should be real!

Thinking of this, Xu Rui was suddenly overjoyed, he really had nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get there!

He immediately lowered his breathing and heart rate to avoid drawing the supermaster's thoughts, and then listened intently to what the people below were saying.

"Merciful Lord, forgive your lowliest believer, killing is not my desire, everything is for the highest ideals."

A crisp female voice prayed faintly, her tone full of sorrow, as if a devout believer was repenting of the sins he had committed.

However, as soon as this confession ended, a creepy sneer suddenly sounded in the room.

"Do you think that if you say a few words here without any pain, your Lord will forgive you? Can you wash your hands full of blood? Open your eyes and take a good look, there is blood flowing non-stop outside, dead people everywhere, and it is you who have destroyed their hope of survival with your own hands! ”

"No!"

The female voice said bitterly: "There is a reason for all this, everything should not be like this, the world has deviated from the original track, everything I have done is just to change the world back to its original appearance!" ”

"Humph!"

The creepy voice snorted coldly: "To put it lightly, everything you have done is nothing but your greed, you have used all the people to sow the seeds of hatred and sin in the world with your own hands.

You have made a deal with the devil only to fulfill your humble and unspeakable desires, you have betrayed the people who have truly worked for you, you have betrayed everyone's expectations, and even the devil has been calculated by you, but you have tried in vain to cover up your sins with noble purposes! ”

"I didn't!"

The female voice said aggrievedly: "I have found terrible results from the deduction, and all this must be corrected, otherwise the world will not be able to escape the fate of total destruction." ”

"You're lying!"

The creepy voice rebuked angrily: "You are the culprit who destroys this world, it is you who unleashed the demon with your own hands, your purpose will not be covered up endlessly, I curse you, curse the whole world, you are all outliers who should not appear in this world, one day, you will all disappear and be burned up by the flames of hell!" ”

"No, there is no such day, I will not allow that day to appear, I will fix all the mistakes and return the world to a bright future!"

The female voice said firmly.

The creepy voice laughed and said, "That's a good point, but it's pointless, because of time, you don't have time!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the female voice suddenly fell silent.

After a long time, the female voice suddenly said in a low voice: "No, I still have time, the secret of the treasure is being cracked, and the devil's eternal power will provide me with endless time until I completely correct my mistakes!" ”

At this moment, an anxious voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Lord Demon God, the traitors are about to invade!" ”
