Chapter 288: Trapping Everything

"The people who built this cave wanted to trap these giant pythons," Chen Qi said, "No matter what pattern in the cave is always related to pythons, this should mean that these pythons have existed here thousands of years ago, and they have also competed with the people who came before them." ”

"So the people at that time built this hole in the ground to trap the python." Chen Qi glanced at Zhao You, intentionally or unintentionally. Zhao Youyu shook his head slightly.

"If the purpose of this cave is to contain the pythons, then why are there so many traps being made in various centers?" Zhao Youyan looked at Chen Qi coldly, "If it is to prevent people from entering the cave, the mechanism should be built at the entrance, but now there are many mechanisms hidden in the cave, and they are all organs that can kill people." ”

Zhao Youyu shone the flashlight on the giant python relief on the floor, and continued: "The mechanism that activated the stone gate twice was related to snakes, and they both locked their eyes, this way of opening the door was extremely incredible. And all the murals in the center seem to be about a giant python. So instead of building to trap, think of it as building for memorial. If it's to trap, why bother with crafting the interior. ”

"And these agencies have shown that this place does not welcome the arrival of the living, but a large number of activity door mechanisms have given this secret room a chance to communicate with the outside world, since the arrival of people is not welcome, why not seal this place to death?" "There are no stone plaques in the center, so this cave is not for burying people. ”

"So I'm guessing that this cave was built specifically to commemorate the python." Zhao Youyu turned the light of the flashlight back again.

"Then according to what you said, since this hole is specially made to commemorate the snake, why is the mechanism that opens the door extremely cruel to buckle the snake's eyes?" Chen Qi retorted.

"That's the contradiction." Zhao Youyu said lightly, "So I think the person who built this cave was forced to build it." ”

"Every mechanism that opened the door revealed his deep hatred for the python, but he had to build the hole." Zhao Youyan looked at the empty stone room.

"Persecuted?" Chen Qi was a little confused. "Who will be persecuted by whom, who will be idle to build a hole in the ground for the python?"

"What if you were persecuted by a python?" Zhao Youyan said coldly.

A cool breeze blew, and Liang Cheng couldn't help but shiver. The already unbelievable status quo became even more unbelievable after Zhao Youyan's narration. Persecuted by a python? How did the python control at that time? But at that time, how did people survive in the end? One question after another popped up in Liang Cheng's heart.

Forgotten monuments, dusty pasts. It's as if everything is stuck in that distant era of a thousand years ago. And are Liang Cheng and the three destined to reproduce the struggle between humans and pythons at that time?

Zhao Youyan paused and continued: "I guess there are a total of five such caves in this cave, and each one is bigger than the other. Why five, because I guess these represent the five passions of the world. ”

Zhao Youyu stretched out a fist as he spoke, and spread his fingers in turn: "We can only find the mechanism leading to the next center in the first center, but we can't find the mechanism to return, so I can be sure that the center we are in now is the last one." ”

"The previous center represents evil, and this center represents greed." Zhao Youyan said coldly, and Chen Qi glanced at Zhao Youyan very unnaturally.

"Therefore, according to this pattern, after the five desires are experienced, life should also come to an end, and the next thing to face should be reincarnation." Zhao Youyu looked up at the two abrupt stone doors in front of him, his eyes full of cold light.

"The door of life and the door of death."

Liang Cheng looked up sharply at the two stone doors in front of him. The dark black stone door panels are delicately carved with two large engravings. They were two fierce pythons, one resolute and powerful, the other gentle and soft.

Zhao Youyu walked to the two doors with a flashlight and looked at the patterns on the doors carefully. After a while, he gently placed his hand on the stone wall.

Liang Cheng stood aside and looked at Zhao Youyu intently, and suddenly the door seemed to become gloomy and dark, and a black haze overflowed from the crack in the door, like the steam of dry ice permeating Zhao Youyan's feet, and gradually passed Zhao Youyao's heels!

Zhao Youyu didn't seem to notice it at all, Liang Cheng rubbed his eyes in surprise, and when I opened my eyes again, the black haze disappeared.

"What's wrong with you?" Chen Qi put his arm against Ding Liangcheng's arm. Liang Cheng rubbed his eyebrows heavily, "No, it seems to be hallucinating again." ”

Finally, Zhao Youyu put down the flashlight in his hand and turned to look at Liang Cheng. Liang Cheng yawned deeply. "Which door?" Zhao Youyu asked. Liang Cheng shook his head and looked at Chen Qi.

Chen Qi thought for a moment and said, "How about going separately." ”

Liang Cheng shook his head again and again when he heard Chen Qi's words: "Split up? What if I get separated again? ”

Zhao Youyu took a deep breath and said, "It can only be like this, at least not all of them will die." ”

Liang Cheng took a sharp breath and died. Indeed, the mechanism of this cave is deadly, and now only one of the two doors in front of you is safe.

Zhao Youyu arrived at the door, and turned his head to look at Chen Qi: "Which one do you choose?" ”

Chen Qi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and a trace of sweat oozed from his forehead. He adjusted his breathing and pointed to a stone door to the right.

Zhao Youyu nodded and looked at Liang Cheng: "What about you?" ”

"I, I'll choose the same as you." Liang Cheng looked at Zhao Youyu and said.

So Zhao Youjing walked to the door on the right, and after groping for a while, he finally put his hand on the snake's head: "Are you ready?" ”

Chen Qi nodded slightly, so Zhao Youyu slammed the snake's head into the door.

"Wait." Chen Qi suddenly raised his head again, his eyes looked at Liang Cheng, "If I die, help me tell my sister." ”

Liang Cheng nodded at him. After a roar of stones, the stone door trembled and slowly opened a crack. A strong cool breeze poured through the cracks in the stones. When the stone door was fully opened, a deep passage appeared in front of Liang Cheng, and the passage spread diagonally downward, like a deep esophagus, leading to the deep unknown.

Chen Qi walked to the edge of the passage, glanced at Liang Cheng and Zhao Youyu again, and then sat directly on the passage and slid down, and the stone door then closed abruptly.

At this time, the wall of the stone chamber suddenly shook, and a thin stream of water slowly flowed out of the hole in the stone wall, flowing down the stone wall to the ground.

Maybe some mechanism was triggered. Liang Cheng thought. Perhaps they wanted to fill the center with water, but unfortunately the water in the reservoir has dried up for thousands of years.

Just thinking like this, suddenly there was a slight sound from all the holes in the stone room! One anaconda after another is coming out of holes of different sizes! Looking at the python leaning into his body all over the wall, Liang Cheng couldn't help but have goosebumps all over his body!

If the stone walls are compared to human skin, then the pythons in those holes are like mites, burrowing out of the porous holes!

Seeing this, Zhao Youyu hurriedly pressed the snake head of another stone wall, and after a loud noise, another deep passage appeared in front of Liang Cheng's eyes. We went straight into the passage and slid down the passage. With only a loud noise behind him, Liang Cheng couldn't see anything clearly.
