Holding my breath, I looked at the light pillar of the flashlight, the powder was sprinkled like dust, and I couldn't help but wave my hand before I dared to relax slowly.

Just now, because I was in a hurry, I sprinkled too much sulfur powder, but this also saved my life, and it was not worth it.

Under the light, the bone-eaters retreated in fear and hid in the dark corners of the passage, and when I moved the flashlight to shine on them, I felt my scalp tingle.

The black bugs were completely carpeted, blocking a small passageway, and it was not easy for me to get out.

Luckily, I'm safe enough to take a break, but it's a hassle to be chased by these things.

After retrieving the flashlight, I watched as the powder had settled before I dared to breathe freely and began to pack my backpack again.

The crushed centipede carcass inside was carefully thrown into the sulfur powder, and then I rubbed the blood off the ground little by little, and finally began to clean up the sulfur powder on the ground.

This thing has helped me a lot, and now that I think about it, I'm glad I brought some, if Dong Shuchen hadn't given it to us at that time, I'm afraid I wouldn't know where I died now.

Although this thing can save my life, but it is really not easy to clean up, I didn't get a few times I felt a tingling itch on my skin, I gritted my teeth, forced my hands to scratch, little by little gathered things, and put it back together.

I don't know what this sulfur powder adds, it's very effective for the insects here, but I have to be careful not to get any skin diseases from this thing.

I wiped it on my clothes, and when I rubbed all the powder away, I felt the itchiness on my skin gradually fade.

After packing up the sulfur powder, I looked at the place I had come to with a flashlight, and remembered the place I had just passed.

The corpses indicate that this is an ancient tomb, and it doesn't look like anyone has been here, at least from what I've found so far, no one has been here before us, otherwise I wouldn't have found a clue.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but put the question back to the beginning - whether this is a grave or not.

If it is those skeletons on the stone platform, it can be understood, and the absence of coffins can also be explained that this is a funeral custom of theirs, and those bone eaters can also exist as a kind of tomb worm to protect the deceased, so the skeletons on it will appear so peaceful, even this kind of insects that like to eat human bones the most, did not gnaw them.

The light in my hand shone back again, and I felt as if I had missed something, but I didn't remember it for a moment.

The nest of the bone-eaters might be just below the stone platform, and there might be some cavern or something, in a narrow space similar to when I was up there.

With this in mind, I simulated a topographical map of the place, and after falling from the cave above, I came to this burial chamber.

If there is still a passage below the chamber that is symmetrical to the passage above, and, if my guess from the top is correct, it is constantly moving.

In this way, there are also many identical burial chambers in the vicinity, so that these caves are connected to each other and are opened by magnetic fields.

"Magnetic field?!" When I thought of this, my head exploded, if all the doors of the passages here were controlled by magnetism, then the disappearance of the old clock would make sense.

Perhaps there was a hive in the place where the old clock was located, and it happened that the old clock pushed one of the beast's heads on the disc to switch and close.

After that, the magnetic force disappears, as the East says, the magnetic field here is constantly changing, similar to what we said above, we are in the fog, following the constant change of the magnetic field around us, and the channels around us are also changing.

The door and the magnetic field that pushes all this must be controlled by something, maybe it is the device that encloses the beast's head that Lao Zhong found, or as indicated by Kun Tiandou, only in the center of this place now, all the magnetic fields will be balanced at one point.

Because I don't have anything in my hand that can confirm this guess, I can only find a way to find the east of Kun Tiandou first.

But at that time, we didn't know how they disappeared in the East, and whether it had anything to do with those skeletons.

Remembering this, I thought of those skeletons again, and if they found something different from other skeletons before they disappeared, why didn't they remind us?

Or are the skeletons anomalous because of their disappearance?

It was hard for me to figure out what was wrong for a moment, like I didn't know how long I had crawled in that cavern to find the door that had put me down.

Maybe it's just my luck, and I don't know what happened to the old clock now.

He's the closest he's got to the beast's head mechanism, and he should know better than we all know what might happen, because all he's doing is looking for it.

I hope he can find a clue, at least he won't run away like a headless fly like me, completely confused.

But after what happened just now, I can also guess the direction of this place. Like the jungle above, the entrances and exits are altered by magnetic fields.

From the place where we first entered, we passed through a brief stone cave and came to a burial chamber where skeletons were hoarded.

It was different from the burial chamber I had just found, because there were no stone platforms or mechanisms on top.

This mechanism also seems to foreshadow the magnetic field here, and they continue according to the rules of the yin side of nature.

In this way, it can be seen as one of the poles of this burial chamber, and at first we found the entrance, which is the counterbalance of the magnetic field, but then we chose to enter another pole here.

Where, I found only how the old clock had disappeared, but the other three; They shouldn't be touching the mechanisms without a word.

This means that they are passively going somewhere else.

The feng shui diagram on the stone wall also indicates the pattern here, and there will be two forms of change in each place.

The sixteen Feng Shui signs are signs of overlap or expulsion of all the opposing elements in the Bagua.

According to this, there will be a passive disappearance of the East in the tomb, and then the active disappearance of the old clock, until the magnetic field begins to change, and I escape.

But in this case, there should be two forms here, the one that is open by the change of the magnetic field, and the other that the tomb in which we are located.

Therefore, the stone cave that connects the tomb chamber with the burial chamber is actually changing regularly, and what is static is the burial chamber itself.

That's one of the reasons why those bugs suddenly appear around us when we didn't notice them.

With that in mind, I began to observe the place where I was now, which was still below the cave, parallel to the burial chamber where the old bell had disappeared.

But he had entered the other passages from above the tomb, and there might be a cave from where I am now, and I don't know if he would have found it.

When I got up, I took a flashlight and walked around the area, testing the magnetic field around me, but I didn't find any suction, so there shouldn't be any exit here.

At this time, I also found other things, that is, the murals on the stone walls, the murals here are very clear, the colors are very distinct, and it seems to be very well preserved.

The frescoes are large and occupy the entire wall. There are six in total, one at the top, the bottom, the front, the back, and the left.

This way of depicting the mural is peculiar, and it also makes the content of the mural not related to something, but as if it is illustrated from various aspects around a point.

I started with the mural above my head, because this one was the most comprehensive and clear, and the flashlight hit it, and the mural clearly fell in the circle of light.

At a distance of about three meters, I looked like a good fit, and I saw that this painting was about a group of people gathered around and who was being buried.

It seems that they are still performing some kind of ritual, with each person's eyes closed and their hands clasped to their chests.

Because the mural is large and the appearance and eyes of the characters are depicted in detail, it seems that the core content of the picture is for this ritual.

In the very center of the mural, a man lies on a stone with his hands on his chest, but his eyes are open.

The stone platform, along with the man, was being sunk into the tomb below, like the skeletons I had seen in the burial chamber just now, and they were parked on the stone platform, showing a look of peace and ease.

But those open eyes seem to betray everything in this painting—this is not to bury the dead at all, but to imprison them completely in death.

What kind of wrongs did they commit to be treated like this?

The seemingly benevolent people, the look of remembrance, were all dispelled by the open eyes on the stone platform.

Perhaps this is also a kind of mockery, a kind of sin that mocks those who are ignorant and puts their so-called truth on others.

After reading this painting, I really don't know whether to be happy or sad, happy is to understand what this painting pointed to me, sad is the falsehood of the dehumanization in my heart and the coldness that is disguised in the painting.

This mural was buried alive, and I couldn't understand why I did it for a long time.

It wasn't until I looked at the painting in front of me that it explained my confusion, it was a very straightforward painting, but it needed some illusion to understand.

The painting is a place that resembles a cave, where a group of people line up to enter through one cave and then exit from another.

The angle on the screen is from the side of the crowd, so I can't tell how many people there are, but I can still understand the meaning.

The people who entered and the people who came out were supposed to be the same group of people, so I didn't look at the people who entered, and my eyes only stopped at the people at the exit.

The crowd at the exit is also the main part of the picture, and at the entrance of the cave, there are several people who look like guards, responsible for checking the people who have walked out of the hole.

At the exit, everyone is normal, except for the man in the middle of the frame.

I don't know if the author deliberately described this person's appearance in this form, or if this person really changed his appearance after entering the cave.

He had a book in his hand; In fact, all the people who came out had books in their hands, but the difference was that the skin of this person was painted by the author with a layer of fish scales, which looked like the two mermaids we saw on the tomb door.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but wonder if it was because I entered that cave and some people had changed, so they were buried alive here in that way.

However, between these two murals, I can boldly guess that those people should be very afraid of this mutation, and have a certain understanding of this mutation, and even have seen the consequences of this mutation, so they will choose to bury them alive.
