Chapter 335: The Wall of Corpses (Second Watch)
That's it? How did we get in? What Master Chebo said is indeed right, this place is different from the excavated Tomb Nine-Story Demon Tower, this is a completely peculiar space, if you want to dig in, I am afraid it is impossible.
This reminds me of the rumors I heard before, outside the real world, there are actually many other worlds, such as the underworld and the heavenly kingdom, in fact, they are all around us, but ordinary people can't enter it at all, and only those with great mana have the ability to open the channel.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but think of the Tibetan scriptures that Master Chepo had just recited, and under the control of that force, I also recited those scriptures, and although I didn't understand Tibetan, when the scriptures came out of my mouth, I seemed to understand the meaning of the scriptures.
This passage is written in Tibetan and is beautifully written. The rhythm is timeless, and I can understand the meaning, but if I want to express it in Chinese, it seems a little difficult to translate.
The general meaning of that passage is: Demons descend on earth to cause suffering and sin, and gods lead warriors. Defeat the demons, forge the Black Tower, and suppress the demons.
At this moment, the messenger of the gods came to the black tower with a mission, and prayed to the gods to open the door of the tower, and the messenger of the gods would give their lives. Fortify the giant tower, Yongzhen Demon.
Forgive me for studying medicine in college, not majoring in Chinese, if I had studied Chinese, I would definitely translate this scripture into a beautiful and rhythmic modern long poem, but I lack that vocabulary, let alone that writing ability.
As a medical student who had spent five years in college dissecting cadavers and mice with a scalpel, I could only write down the words I understood, but even these simple words contained information that surprised me immensely.
The demons mentioned in the scriptures descended to the world, and the gods led the warriors to defeat the demons, which is obviously the story of King Gesar's legend, and the black giant tower that was cast should be the nine-story demon tower we are entering now.
It's just that the biggest message is in the last paragraph of the scriptures, if the prayers of the scriptures are not false, then everyone who entered the nine-story demon tower, Master Chebo and the eight masters, as well as these disciples they brought, will have to pay with their lives to re-strengthen the demon tower and suppress the demons.
Even if I, a Han Chinese who don't understand Tibetan, understand the meaning of this scripture when I recite it, I don't believe that the nine masters and their disciples would not understand the meaning.
Standing in the darkness at this moment, with no fingers around me, I could hear my own pounding heartbeat, and I could also hear the slightly heavy breathing of others, I could not see their expressions, but when I thought back to the way I came, everyone behaved so calmly, I was shocked and couldn't help but respect my heart.
In this dark space, the previous images flashed in my mind, I thought of my father and mother, Aunt Xue and grandmother, and those elders of the Ji family, and I suddenly felt that their expressions before they died were the same as those expressions of Master Chebo and them before they entered the Demon Tower.
Somehow, I suddenly remembered the most classic line from a game I once played: someone must fight bloodily before there can be freedom in the world.
I have lived as an ordinary person for eighteen years, and during these eighteen years, I never knew that there is a group of people in this world, and they are for the peace of this world. Voluntarily sacrificing their lives, they never asked the world to give them anything in return, let alone the world to know about their existence, and their only hope was peace in the world.
Father is like this, mother is like this, grandmother is like this, Aunt Xue is like this, Great Elder is like this, Liao Qingjiang is like this, Zhang Wuxin is like this, Fu Mengyue is like this, and now Master Chebo is like this, if at this time, I am still indifferent and my heart is not touched, it is too indifferent and shameless.
Thinking about this, I couldn't help but feel a little agitated, and my breathing became a lot heavier, and I felt that something was blocking my chest, making me feel that my nose was sour and my eye circles were a little red.
"Ji Zang, calm down. Follow in my footsteps. We're about to enter the first floor of the Demon Tower. Master Chebo's voice suddenly came from the front.
Only then did I realize that we were in danger at the moment, not the time to think about these things, this time Master Chebo and their purpose was to reseal the Nine-Story Demon Tower and the Gate of Hell, and my purpose was to find Ji Ling.
Those touches and emotions of the soul should be put aside first. Before things are done, no matter how moved it is, it will not help, since the masters have decided to sacrifice, then they can't make their sacrifice worthless, I must do my job well.
Retracting my thoughts, I began to sense the situation around me. It was dark all around, and nothing could be seen, but a rancid smell lingered in the nose, and this rancid smell was very strong, and it only had such a strong smell when a large number of corpses were decomposing together.
This reminds me of the legend of the Nine-Story Demon Tower. Saying that there were many corpses of demons buried here, as well as the corpses of King Gesar and his subordinates, I couldn't help but think of this image in my mind: close to us, there were mountains of corpses, and maybe their hideous faces were still facing my face.
It's okay not to want such a picture, when I think of such a picture. I suddenly felt the hairs on my body stand on end, goosebumps all came out, and I couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in my heart: Master Chebo led us into the Demon Tower, why didn't we prepare lighting equipment?
At this time, Master Chebo's voice suddenly sounded: "You can't use lighting items to enter the Demon Tower. It's easy to be fooled by the power of demons. Alright, let's go, follow me. ”
If you use a lighting device, you will be confused by the power of demons? Is there anything else that can't be lost here?
I thought to myself as I followed in the footsteps of Master Chebo and walked slowly forward. Master Chepo walked slowly, with steady steps, as if he was carefully calculating with each step.
Strange to say, it was dark all around, and I couldn't see anything, but I could clearly sense the direction of Master Chebo. I could also clearly sense his movements, but the rest of the people behind me, I couldn't feel their presence at all, the only thing I could hear was their breathing.
And since they came in, they have been silent, if it weren't for Master Chebo's usual behavior. I have some doubts that the rest of the people are already dead and have become the living dead, otherwise why didn't they even say a word when they encountered such a change?
I followed behind Master Chebo, step by step, and when I had walked more than a hundred steps, I suddenly heard Master Chepo exclaim, and then the whole space suddenly became brighter.
This bright light is not a change in the kind of light in reality, because in reality, if there is a sudden light in the dark, the human eye needs at least a few seconds to react. But what happened here was completely out of the ordinary. In a flash of light, my eyes saw everything in front of me without any reaction.
Master Chepo was just a step ahead of me, and we were standing in a labyrinth, surrounded by walls of corpses. There are countless hands and feet sticking out of the wall, and they come in a variety of shapes, making you shudder to look at.
These corpses were not human corpses, they were all half-human and half-beast corpses, some were half-human, half-bird, and some were eagle-headed humans. Some of them are human-headed beasts, and the hands and feet of humans are intertwined with the claws of wild beasts, which makes them even more hideous.
The distance between the walls was narrow, and with the hands and feet sticking out of the walls and the claws of wild beasts, we walked through them more like walking through a dense forest of thorns. That's when I realized why Master Chebo was walking so slowly.
The monk's robe worn by Master Chebo happened to be hooked by an eagle's claw at this moment, and a hole was hung on it, which was why Master Chepo exclaimed.
And on the wall beside him, a monster head with a human face and a hawk's beak was facing us, and it seemed to have a mocking smile on its face, and its eyes were red, and I couldn't help but be fascinated when I saw its eyes.
"Don't look it in the eye!" Master Chebo immediately shouted.
But it was too late, and I looked at the crimson eyes of the monster and felt my mind sucked in, and suddenly, everything in front of me changed.
The hands and feet and the claws of the beasts were moving on the walls of the corpses, and they were writing in front of my eyes in words I didn't recognize, which looked a little like Tibetan, but it was not the same as the Tibetan I had seen during this time.
The fingertips of these hands and feet, as well as the claws of the beast, lit up with a black light. As they shook and wrote, the black light merged into black words, flashing with a bewitching black light.
Countless words converged on the claws of these monsters, and then followed my eyes into my body, and with each step of my body, I felt my consciousness become heavier. As countless characters entered my body, I felt like my eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and I was about to lose consciousness soon.
Finished! This is a trick, if I really fall asleep, maybe I will not die at all, this is the power of demons, except for King Gesar and his warriors, no one can easily defeat them.
Wake up quickly! Don't fall asleep, once you fall asleep, it's completely over.
I yelled in my heart, trying to sober myself up, but my eyelids and consciousness were not controlled at all. I wanted to bite the tip of my tongue with my teeth and use the pain to wake myself up, but my body was out of control at the moment, and I couldn't even open my mouth.
Eventually, my eyes went black and I lost consciousness completely.
