244. Cuckoo
After listening to the lecture, they realized that something had really happened, and they dragged the three of them back to the altar, and before they could get around, the three of them suddenly woke up, needless to say, the evil qi washed away the ghosts, but it also caused their nervous system to enter crazy mode. Although Zhou Tong and Liuzi each brought guns on their bodies, it was impossible to say that they pointed the barrels of their guns at their own people, who were considered companions.
In this way, they will suffer a loss, people often stimulate their own potential when they are crazy, and the people brought by Zhuang Yu are not weak themselves, but fortunately, the three of them have no mind and can't recognize people, they are all fighting indiscriminately, which is equivalent to a scuffle between the five people on the side of the altar. They approached the altar as they fought, but who had struck the mechanism, and the stone slab suddenly moved in front of the altar, and a bloody breath rushed out of the sky, because the darkness could not see clearly, and only vaguely discerned that there seemed to be water inside.
At that time, Zhou Tong and the six sons were side by side on the periphery, and the three of them happened to be on the edge of the altar. Suddenly, a lot of hands stretched out from it, and quickly dragged the three of them in, and there were still hands climbing up, and the two of them were so frightened that they didn't want to run away.
Sheng Shiyao said: "That's a pool of blood. The blood of all the living creatures that were sacrificed would be drained in the pool of blood, and the blood would be sacrificed to the heavens. ”
I was shocked to hear that the "living thing" he said also included people, but his tone was so indifferent that it seemed to be talking about a dead thing. Zhou Tong and Liuzi were only slightly injured in the fight, but the three of them were probably ......
"Small, life and death are fateful. Since you have come here, you cannot be a woman's kindness. Sheng Shiyao admonished me in a deep voice, and I nodded silently. Knowing that he has a glimpse of my mentality, he has a weak temperament, and except for the people around him, the rest of the people don't look at him. If it weren't for my kindness just now, I might have abandoned the three of them here without the dangerous trip of Zhou Tong and Liuzi, and in the end, the result of my insistence was the same, and the three of them still did not escape their doom.
Hearing Sheng Shiyao asking Zhou Tong about the specific situation of stretching out his hand in the blood pool, I gathered my mind and knew that he was thinking of Zhuang Yu's side, and they also ran into countless hands stretching out from the wall, dragging people forward. Now that there are people on the altar, doesn't that confirm Sheng Shiyao's previous guess, that passage also leads to the ancient city, and Zhuang Yu and Jian Ningyi may not be far away, but, where will they be? Underground? The blood pool must lead to the bottom, could it be that the place we are stepping on now is actually hollow, and there is a Shura Purgatory underneath?
I also knew that the pool of blood would definitely not be able to try, and the two of them also said that they had seen the hand climbing up, and they wondered if anything would catch up. Sheng Shiyao Shen ordered everyone to leave here as soon as possible, and the crisis seemed to be overwhelming. Finally entering the palace, I first felt the aura of Senran, in this atmosphere, no one spoke, and the five people were very close to each other. Except for me, the guns of several of them were already loaded.
Sheng Shiyao said that he had not actually gone deep into the inner courtyard of the palace, but had only been to the main gate of the palace. When he said this, he was very cold, and I immediately understood the reason, he was not tasted by the King of Dian in his childhood, and no one regarded him as a prince, even with the approval of the Demon God Bat King, he was still not qualified to live in the inner courtyard of this palace, but could only be with the bat all day long.
He shook his hand as a sign of comfort, and a slightly dull voice came: "I'm fine." ”
Unlike that time when he went to Soul City, at first he didn't have the memory of his previous life, and he wouldn't have much emotion, but this time, he clearly remembered that life, and naturally remembered the years he spent in this royal city. In the end, behind the tenacity, he also has the emotions of ordinary people.
Remembering Zhuang Yu's childhood experience of wizard Yao, he said that he was sent to the Bat King Cave when he was a child, is this cave the one in Soul City? Nanning City and this Dian City should not be too close, if he is in the cave for a long time, I am afraid that there will be very few chances to even reach the gate of this palace. I don't know how he became a wizard of the Dian Kingdom later, but he lived in Ningcheng for a long time.
At that time, the ancient Dian Kingdom admired witchcraft, and wizards and witches should have a very high status.
In the middle of the thought, we heard Sheng Shiyao being called next to us, we walked over together, and heard Liu Yue saying: "Brother Yao, look at the mechanism here, otherwise we will come to the end, and we will not be able to pass through this palace and enter again." ”
Sheng Shiyao observed for a while, let go of my hand and said, "Let me come." The mechanism here is exactly the same as the underground palace of Dian Island, which is the trend of the nine-square grid. This reminds everyone that Zhuang Yu built an underground palace on Dian Island, which must have been based on this palace model.
Hearing Zhou Tong, he suddenly realized: "No wonder, I think this place is somewhat familiar, it turns out that this wall and the top are the same as the underground palace." It's really strange, how did Zhuang Yu copy a roof and a wall, but the other structures are different. ”
I still remember Sheng Shiyao's heroic posture when he was unraveling the mechanism of the underground palace, so he was not surprised when there was the sound of moving masonry, but only fixed his figure and watched his figure move rapidly. Last time, the wall was unlocked, and the black stone in the distance collapsed into a hole, but this time the entire wall was removed, so the structure is not two floors, but front and back.
In ancient times, large families had a deep and deep courtyard, not to mention the royal courtyard. Passing through the main palace, it should belong to the harem area, and the fairy pool is said to be behind the palace, do you still have to pass through this realm? As if walking in a labyrinth, we walked around one corridor after another, and we couldn't reach the end, passing several buildings of not small scale along the way, all of which were closed, and there was no way back.
I was really tired, so I found an open place to sit down and rest, and calculated the time, we came here from Fuxian Lake, at least for one day. In fact, now they are in the same relationship with me, they are in the dark realm, and they don't see the light of day, the difference is that they can see more companions than me, and I can only see Sheng Shiyao alone. It should be that we are all tired, Sheng Shiyao decided to sleep here and find a way out when everyone has recovered their strength.
No one in this kind of place will completely relax their vigilance, especially since Zhou Tong and Liuzi have already encountered the danger of bloody hands before, and the sense of crisis oppresses everyone's nerves. So I closed my eyes, and the panting sound was still heavy when I heard it, let alone the snoring, and it was obvious that everyone couldn't sleep. In this silence, the cuckoo call came again, and then I remembered that after we heard the cuckoo in the periphery, we found the wreckage of the modern wing, but we didn't notice the sound of birds, and then the monotone reappeared, and I felt eerie and weird, is this kind of bird following us?
Liuzi was slightly shocked and proposed: "Brother Yao, do you want to shoot at the air to scare this bird away, this cry is cold." ”
"It's better not to, a shot you shoot is likely to lure a ferocious monster in."
"Huh? Will there be beasts? We didn't meet any of us along the way, except for the strange hands that appeared in the blood pool. Zhou Tong asked in surprise. Sheng Shiyao said in a deep voice: "A place for breathing and living, it is impossible without living creatures, it must be hidden somewhere and not dispatched." And with the experience of Soul City, it is possible that these animals have been genetically mutated and become several times stronger than the original. ”
After hearing him say this, he stopped shooting and startled the bird, and let the cuckoo call one after another somewhere. But listening to it, I felt that something was wrong, as if each call was not from the same one, the direction was different, and the sound quality was different. Seeing Sheng Shiyao sitting up straight, he seemed to be listening.
The next moment, he ordered in a deep voice: "Find a room to hide immediately, we may be surrounded by this cuckoo." "With the tacit cooperation of my companions, no one will ask questions, and I immediately obeyed the order and stood up, and I followed closely under his tugging. When we ran into the nearest building and the door was closed, we immediately heard a thumping sound outside the door.
"They're all resting on that door!" Liu Yue exclaimed, "Quick, there's still a window open over there, and someone is flying in." Rushing away, Sheng Shiyao also swept past him, and dropped a sentence: "Press the door tightly, don't be knocked open by them." "I pressed my back against the wooden door, and I could feel the force of the bird striking it, and it was obviously not too small.
After a few abnormal noises, I heard Zhou Tong say: "Brother Yao, there are five of them, what should I do?" Shot to death? ”
"Don't shoot, use fish arrows!" That's right, we also have the little device weapon of the fish arrow, which is silent. A few arrows were shot, and something fell to the ground, and suddenly Liu Yue shouted in his ears: "Be careful!" "My heart tightened, thinking that something was wrong on their side, but after two seconds, I felt a strong wind on the left, and I had to use my back against the door to prevent it from being knocked open by the birds outside, so I couldn't dodge, so I could only reflexively raise my arm to block.
"Ah-" A scream came from Liu Yue, followed by Zhou Tong shouting: "Ah Yue! "My heart sank, could it be that Liu Yue was bitten by that bird in order to save me? Someone rushed over, and when he heard the heavy footsteps, he knew that it was Zhou Tong, "Ah Yue, have you done anything?" I looked for their location in a daze, not far away, but I couldn't go over, the door was missing Liu Yue's support, and it was gradually struggling, and the outside was still bumping into them one after another.
Suddenly heard Zhou Tong ask: "Ah Yue, you were bitten on the shoulder by that bird, why didn't you bleed?" ”
If it was really Liu Yue who was attacked by a bird on my behalf, I never thought that she would come to save me at a critical moment. That Fang Sheng Shiyao was already drinking: "Zhou Tong, go to the door first, Xiaoxiao can't eat anymore." "Indeed, I'm almost knocked out. After Zhou Tong stepped forward to resist, he suddenly reduced the pressure again, and then Sheng Shiyao ran back, stretched out his arm and raised it above my head, ping pong and knocking twice, as if he had sealed the door with something.
When he knocked on the third one, he told me to get out of the way, and without asking, I guessed that I must have found something like a seal, and sealed the doors and windows. After the situation stabilized temporarily, Sheng Shiyao walked past me and leaned down and squatted.
