Chapter 237: Blending
"Are you scared?" Behind him, Ling Kai's deep voice came, his voice was so small that it was almost only me who could hear it.
At this moment, the two of us are mixed in the team that was arrested to build the altar, everyone's hands are tied with hemp rope, tied in a straight line, there are still many puppets wearing police uniforms, holding electric batons, and red eyes on both sides patrolling.
Hearing Ling Kai's voice, I secretly shook my head, indicating that there was nothing to fear.
This plan was made after I discussed it with him and the three of them overnight, and I was in this team in order to be able to climb the altar, get close to Wu Yue, and take the opportunity to fight him to the death, so as to provide Fan Wufu with an opportunity to lift the seal of the Southern City Barrier and clear the poisonous haze.
Of course, I didn't think that this plan would succeed, but if Ling Kai and I joined forces, it might not be impossible to die with Wu Yue. As for rescuing the others, I had lost hope. Since sooner or later they will both die, or they will all become a blood-sucking monster, it is better to die in this silent war and walk with me and Ling Kai on the Huangquan Road!
Therefore, I don't have any baggage in my heart, even if I know that Wu Yue has too many people's lives in his hands, such as Hua Yan, Yun Xueli, including Liang Xiaoxi, Mao Jie and Luo Chenhui.
People are inherently mortal, and they die for the sake of justice in the world, and they do not suffer losses.
The road is long, but there will be an end. When we were sent to the altar one after another by the improvised elevators suspended in the air, the color of the blood moon on the horizon seemed to be a little more intense, but it only revealed a cold chill on the people, and we couldn't feel the warmth at all.
Surrounded by people walking around, they were forced to move bricks, and cement, paste black wall tiles, etc., tens of thousands of people were forced to build a high altar that was about to take shape, there were countless stairs on the pitch-black upright building, and at the end of the stairs, the top of the less than 100 meters did not know what was being built, I heard that none of the people who reached the top of the building came back alive, and it was as strange as a gossamer that involved everyone's emotions, and everyone no longer even had the interest to speak.
Everyone was silent, except for the occasional shouting or shouting of a few patrolling guards, only the sound of ping-pong banging and crashing could be heard.
In the midst of this eerie and silent aura, I took a look at my surroundings, only to find that all the hostages were gone. Whether it is Yun Xueli or Luo Chenhui, they are gone, and they don't know where they were hidden by Wu Yue, or if they are no longer alive!
My heart tugged at me, although I was ready for their sacrifice, I couldn't help but tremble in my heart and the boundless coldness when I really faced it.
"You guys, go build on top." Suddenly, a red-eyed monster in a police uniform walked beside us, and with a wave of the electric baton in his hand, he pointed at us people who were fighting with cement.
Suddenly, several people around him trembled with fright, and even more timid ones rolled their eyes and fainted to the ground.
I heard someone crying quietly, "Why us?" No, you can't go, you can't come back if you go! ”
"There must be some monster there, specializing in eating people, I won't go, I won't go." Finally, someone shouted out, he was protesting, he was opposing, trying to escape the fate of never returning.
Unfortunately, what awaited him was a merciless beating, and even several guards rushed over and beat him until his flesh and blood were blurred, and he was almost killed on the spot.
I clenched my fists desperately, suppressing the anger in my body
Several times I couldn't help but want to rush out to stop the behavior was controlled by the last remnants of reason, watching those fainted people also be mercilessly beaten, waking up screaming for days, and finally dying, lying in a pool of blood, I couldn't do anything except inhale deeply.
The hatred in my heart grew like the wind, and I almost couldn't help but want to identify myself and stand up openly and give it a go to Wu Yue, who didn't know where to hide!
However, Ling Kai walked up to me at the right time and held my hand tightly.
His fingers were still as cold as jade, but they brought me boundless warmth and strength.
I turned my head to look at him and shook my head helplessly to show that I could still hold on!
In the end, no matter how frightened and resisted the people, a hundred of them were forced to go to the top of the altar, a mysterious and terrible place.
The long staircase seemed to have no end in sight, and the altar at the top was almost deep into the night, all surrounded by a hazy red mist.
I wonder why the people working on the altar are not harmed by the poisonous gas of the red mist, but I can also think that this may be a specially isolated area, if everyone is poisoned, who will help Wu Yue do things? Who helped him to complete the construction of the altar? How could he achieve his plan?
Along the way, although I imagined countless possibilities, when I really reached the top, I was still shocked by everything in front of me and had nothing to say, only to see that there was only a rectangular jade bed in this more than 100-square-meter place, just enough for an adult to lie down. This bed is really made of white jade, and there is a faint cold light all over the body, and when it is illuminated by the blood moon, it is more and more strange and terrifying.
On the ground around the stone bed, many stone troughs were dug out, and the patterns formed by these stone troughs were extremely complex, and it was not clear what they looked like, but after I thought of many, many pictures, I judged that it should be a huge rune, once something flows out of the jade bed, it will definitely form a pattern along the trend of these stone troughs, and finally condense something through the mysterious runes to achieve the effect of activating the blood baby curse!
Needless to say, the liquid flowing in the stone trough must have been crimson blood, and the thought of whose blood belonged made my scalp tingle.
From the experience of more than a year, the blood of the Holy Maiden flowing in my body is a necessary condition for activating the Blood Infant Mantra, so could it be my blood flowing through the stone trough to form the final pattern?
I took a deep breath, didn't dare to fantasize about these terrible pictures anymore, turned my head and just wanted to look around a few more times, when I heard the guard's shout, "What are you doing in a daze, don't dig quickly, hurry, here is the pattern, you all act for me, hurry!" ”
With a move in my heart, I hurriedly followed the flow of people to the corner pointed by the guard, picked up a lot of paper on the ground and looked at it, there were many, many patterns printed on it, I thought that these patterns would allow us to discover what the stone trough under the jade bed would be in the end, so as to judge its role and efficacy, but I was deeply impressed by Wu Yue's caution.
It turned out that the patterns on these papers were only one piece at a time, and there were hundreds of pieces of paper, so there was no way to piece together the overall graphic effect, and the previous plan was frustrated, Ling Kai and I could only look at each other in the team, and reluctantly threw ourselves into the team digging trenches according to the pattern.
Although they would bring some food and pure water up every day through a simple ladder, the excessive hardship made these basic food and water simply unable to meet the excessive physical strength of the people, and even I was almost dizzy and tired, let alone ordinary people.
I finally understood why they would go and never return, so that they were squeezed out of labor, and they would become crippled if they did not die!
