Chapter 350: The Entrance to Hell
The second layer of the ground does not seem to be very different from the first, the only difference is the increase in the number of clay pots, as well as some animal bones remaining on the clay pots. "Ya * Wen * Yan * Love * First * Hair"
"It seems that the sacrifice here is harsher than the last one." Pi Jun said as he looked at the animal bones.
Without stopping for more, everyone continued to walk in for a while, and then there was a downward opening, but the entrance here was relatively steep, and it was very inconvenient for everyone to hold a flashlight.
"Ningning, make some head rings out of soft branches! Put a flashlight on your head. β
Su Man remembered that the workers he had seen on TV in the past had the kind of lighting on their helmets so that they could free their hands.
They didn't have a place to find that kind of thing now, so Su Man thought of getting a simple one first, so he suggested to Zuo Ning.
However, there is a length of battery to be installed behind the flashlight, and there is no way to tie it in the middle of the head, so Su Man asked Zuo Ning to weave the flashlight on the side, so that it can be placed above the ear.
After making it up, the people fixed it on their heads, and then continued downward.
With their hands free, everyone's downward speed was even faster.
It's just that this layer by layer seems to be incomplete, and the further down it goes, the more shocking everyone sees.
The cave seems to have taken everything that could be sacrificed, and the further down it went, the more brutal it became.
By the time everyone reached the eighth floor, it was already full of bones.
And probably due to the earth's crust changes, the roadbed here has sunk, so the location has become unusually narrow. Su Man had no choice but to take out tools and dig with everyone while drilling inside.
Finally, everyone went down to the ninth floor. This is a relatively large hole, unlike the low corridors above.
"It's like the last floor." Xuan Yu'er said as she looked left and right.
Su Man also looked around: "Well, it's really like the bottom." Look over there, everybody. Su Man suddenly pointed to the front and said.
Following the direction of Su Man's finger, everyone looked over and found that there were murals painted on a relatively flat wall in front of them, and everyone was always more concerned about the places with patterns, after all, there might be some clues hidden here.
In the middle of this mural is a picture of a hat with a bird's head, but the body is a human body. But it's a rotten body, like a zombie.
"What is this? Did the Mayans worship zombies? Xuan Yu'er asked in complete confusion. Ya * Wen * Yan * Love * First * Fa
"The head of a bird, the human body. This is ......" Before Pi Jun finished speaking, he heard a sound behind him.
The crowd vigilously unleashed their abilities, and then several men with guns came out of the entrance.
(Who are you?) Why should you come here? The tan-haired man asked the crowd.
Zhong Tao translated the other party's words to everyone.
"Then why are you following us?" Su Man said. At the same time, Wan Haoqi translated the past for those people.
(You shouldn't be here.) The man said.
(Why?) Wan Haoqi asked hurriedly.
Then the person told Wan Haoqi what kind of place this was, and with Wan Haoqi's translation, everyone felt more and more that this place was unusual.
According to them, this is a place that was considered hell by the ancient Mayans.
According to the Mayan beliefs, they divided the universe into twenty-three levels.
Thirteen in heaven. There is one who dominates the day-to-day life. Nine more are underground, with a deity to preside over each floor.
The underground is the gods who are closer to humans, but the ninth level is considered the entrance to hell. Even the ancient Mayans believed that the ninth layer was hell.
The owl head and the rotting human body seen on the murals are the Lord of Hell, the Grim Reaper, eh? Puche.
They didn't expect the crowd to come to this place, because this is where the legend says the Mayans were the last to disappear.
"You're saying this is where the ancient Mayans last disappeared?" Su Man asked in some surprise, and then Wan Haoqi translated it to the other party.
(Yes, it's just a legend, but we believe it's a sacred place.) Whatever your purpose, please get out of here. "The tan-haired man said. Zhong Tao translated the other party's words to everyone again.
"What if we don't leave?" Su Man asked. Wan Haoqi translated the words to the people over there.
(Then we'll have to expel you.) The tan-haired man raised his gun, pointed it at the squad.
"It looks like the talks have collapsed." Xuan Yu'er in the back whispered. Although Zhong Tao hadn't had time to translate it for everyone, no one could see that he didn't agree.
Su Man didn't speak, but suddenly, a few water balls went towards the heads of several people, and then Zuo Ning's wooden branch tied up the four people firmly.
Su Man untied the water cover that almost suffocated several people and said, "We have something very important to do here, but we have no intention of harming you, but you are hindering me, so I can only put you here first." β
Then Wan Haoqi translated to the other party, and the tan-haired man on the other side said: "(You can't destroy here, everything here is ancient and mysterious, and that is also the truth we are looking for.) οΌβ
"Truth? We're just looking for the truth. Su Man listened to Zhong Tao's translation and then said.
"Alright, let's go inside! We have to find what we need to leave, and we can't come in vain. Zuo Ning said to Su Man.
Su Man nodded, and everyone in the team walked inside, wanting to see what hints they could find, but they found that there was actually a layer inside, and the entrance was a flat entrance facing up and down, like a mouth full of fangs.
Outside the entrance is a clay pot with mottled bloodstains.
"This is the place where the blood of the living is sacrificed, to please the gods. But isn't this the ninth layer that the Mayans thought was ruled by the god of death? Why sacrifice the living here? Pi Jun muttered puzzled, but I was afraid that no one could tell him this answer.
"Let's go! Maybe the answer lies here! Su Man said, and then drilled in with his fangs.
As Su Man was the first to enter, the originally flat and round entrances like open mouths quickly closed together, and Su Man seemed to be devoured.
"Vines, vines." The crowd kept smashing the stones, but it was as if it had never opened.
"What to do? The vine is locked inside, and I don't know if there will be danger inside. Xuan Yu'er said worriedly.
"Don't worry, don't worry, the vines are so powerful, they won't be dangerous." Zuo Ning comforted Xuan Yu'er while also comforting herself.
"The vines won't disappear here like the Mayans, right?" Xuan Yu'er suddenly asked again.
"Yu'er, don't spell the vines, no, the vines will definitely come out." Zuo Ning glared at Xuan Yu'er fiercely and said.
"Bah, what did I say! The vines will definitely come out. Xuan Yu'er said with some regret for her words.
"Let's dig and see if we can dig the passage," Lu Wei said.
When he just came down, he needed to dig because of the sinking of the roadbed, so Su Man took out the tools again, and before he had time to put them in, he could use them to dig the wall at this time.
It's just that it's stronger than everyone thinks, and this entrance is obviously stone, but it's as strong as metal, and it doesn't help if everyone beats it in turn.
Besides, Su Man was stunned for a moment after being locked up, but then he began to be vigilant about the surrounding situation.
It's just that when I was vigilant, I didn't find anything abnormal, but there was a tremor on a circle made of stone in the middle.
There are also some clay pots scattered around the stone circle.
Looking at the appearance of the stone circle, Su Man felt that this should be an altar, but just now the group of people said that this was the place where the Mayans disappeared in the rumors, which made Su Man feel a little incredible.
After all, there are stone walls all around here, and there is such a stone altar in the middle, but the stone pillar in a groove in the middle of this stone altar makes Su Man feel very similar to the spine of the human body, remembering that the key to open the safe before was found in the cave pointed to by the map before, then this is the .......
Su Man immediately turned out the crystal skull and pressed it towards the groove in the middle of the altar, Su Man was pleasantly surprised to find that it was not big or small, just right.
As the Crystal Skull was attached, the Crystal Skull made a sound that sounded like a song. The crystal skull shook as if it had suddenly come to life.
Su Man approached the skull and found that the jaws of the crystal skull were closed one by one, as if to tell something, but unfortunately Su Man only heard a melody like music, maybe this is the language of the Mayans, maybe this is a melody, anyway, he didn't understand it.
However, as this rhythm became faster and faster, Su Man felt that the cave was shaking, and there was an earthquake? Su Man wanted to pick up the crystal skull, but the crystal skull seemed to have grown on the stone altar from the beginning, and Su Man didn't move half a minute even with so much strength.
But immediately Su Man stopped moving the skull, because the stone wall above the top of the mountain was compressing downwards at this time.
Su Man had to hide in a slightly lower place and curl up so that he would not be flattened by the top of the mountain that was pressed down.
Even Su Man thought that if she continued to compress down, she might have to return to the space, but how to come out again in the future was also a problem.
Thankfully, the stone wall was only compressed downward, and it would press against the top of the crystal skull so that it would no longer shrink.
Su Man's eyes widened as he watched the crystal skull emit a dazzling light, and in a flash of light, a circle-shaped item appeared on the stone wall above the crystal skull, pressing down until it was worn on the head of the crystal skull.
