Chapter 183: There is no cave
I withdrew my gaze to examine the corpse, and my heart became more and more worried at this moment, because until now, I still hadn't seen any trace of Elder Wind and Hyacinth.
Except for those neat footprints, other traces of their presence are completely gone, I know I dare not delay any longer, so I walked past the corpse without squinting, and when I passed, the corpse did not appear to have any movement, it seems that he may be just an ordinary decoration, when I think of this, my heart can't help but be a little sad after all, such a good human life, actually just reduced to the decoration of a place, he is like the lampholder of the everlasting lamp. What kind of person would have made this 'work of art' so cruelly? When I saw him, I also sensed that it was very likely that this place was not the legendary Sword Gate Forbidden Land at all, but as Elder Feng said, it was a tomb.
But who will be buried in this tomb? We all knew about the origin of the knife gate before, but before the establishment of the knife gate, we didn't know anything about the background of those who were born and raised here, everything could be found out, but only time could not do it, and under the wash of time, everything would cease to exist.
Let's not talk about what this place was like before, and what kind of story it left behind, but after the Night's Watch took this place into the Nameless Land, I think all the clues may be gone.
The most terrible thing is not to trace all the clues here, but everything in this place has been overturned, the first time it is overthrown, it is the erasure of all the past, and the second time it is a complete supplement to that erasure.
I walked forward cautiously, at this moment I suddenly felt that my left cheek seemed to be burned by fire, and there was a sharp pain, I didn't panic, I stood firmly in place and moved back gently, I knew that it was best not to move around in a hurry at this time, to prevent myself from being hurt more seriously, at this time, I caught a glimpse of a cold light from the corner of my eye and flashed my cheek, I didn't know what that thing was, but I was secretly surprised, just now suddenly I didn't notice the appearance of this thing, If it didn't just go over my cheeks, or even across my neck...... Then there is a good chance that I will no longer exist, I looked at the thing that had fallen into the darkness, reached out and touched my cheek, and there was only a warm liquid in my hand, which was blood.
I looked at the track of the thing that brushed my cheek, and when I looked at it, I suddenly noticed that the wall not far away seemed to be a little different, there was a one-meter square stone brick on that wall, the color of the stone brick seemed to be lighter than the color of other stone bricks, I bypassed the stone brick, and slowly rubbed against the wall, in fact, this move was very dangerous, because it was very likely that there were some very dangerous mechanisms on the wall, but in comparison, I still trusted my own experience. I don't know what the thing that wiped my cheek is, it seems to be an arrow, and it seems to be a short knife, but I know that as long as the two points are connected in a line, I can figure out the trajectory of this thing, and the trajectory points directly to this stone brick, in fact, although the color of the stone brick is much lighter than the surroundings, but in fact, in this pure black environment, these slight differences are not easy to be noticed, if I don't have such good eyesight somehow, this point is likely to be missed by me, I rubbed against the wall, slowly approaching it, still very wary of the wall behind me, for fear that some mechanism or nail or something would hurt me again. The reason why I am so cautious is not only because I am instigated, but more importantly, because I also have to protect myself, and then find Elder Wind and Fire Hyacinth.
When I approached the stone brick, I didn't have time to look at it carefully, at this moment, the stone brick suddenly released a cold arrow, this time because the distance was too close, I could clearly see that it was an arrow, the surface of the arrow was cold, but not because of quenching, but because this knife is indeed very sharp, I am a little strange, I don't know how long it has been since the establishment of the mechanism, so long days, how can this arrow be so well maintained, there is not even a trace of rust, this is not the point, The point is that the stone brick launched the arrow in a very different way, the arrow was launched, not through some strange hole, but at the moment it was launched, the stone brick was completely opened.
It's just that the time for this stone brick to open is too short, so I can't see what is in it, I looked down at the footprints on the road, and found that the footprints stopped abruptly in front of the spread to this stone brick, it is very likely that Elder Wind and Fire Hyacinth They entered this stone brick, I was a little unsure, stretched out my foot and gently stepped on the ground before the stone brick, and when there was a real sound of landing under my feet, I understood that Elder Wind and Fire Hacacinth must have entered this stone brick. I looked at the stone brick that shot a cold arrow from time to time, I was a little worried, if I didn't grasp the right time, just against this cold arrow, it would be a fatal thing, I really don't know why Elder Feng and Fire Hyacinth came in, but complaining is complaining, I also know that there is no other choice, so I saw the right time, and when the stone brick turned over and released the cold arrow, I immediately followed the drill, and when I got in, it was almost stuck, but fortunately, the stone brick immediately flipped over. With the momentum of his flipping, my whole person was slapped in, and after entering, it was actually a state of falling, I sat on the ground dizzily, and it took me a long time to see the surrounding environment, only to see that this place was completely different from the inside of the mechanism I imagined, and this was actually a huge stone chamber that was extremely wide!
And in the middle of the stone room, there are two people, Hyacinth and Elder Wind, and it is no longer right to say this at this time, because I don't know if the state of Hyacinth can still be called a human at this moment.
We hadn't seen each other for a short time, and Hyacinth's whole appearance had changed dramatically, his eyes were red, he looked like a person who had stayed up all night, and he looked like a drug addict who was addicted to drugs when he was short of drugs, and he stood alone in the middle of the entire stone room, with many strange symbols densely drawn under his feet.
