Chapter Fifty-Eight: Another Fragment
Bang!
The sky suddenly lit up, and then thunder exploded, and it poured down. Heaven and earth were instantly vast.
Su Bai took Laura and walked into the cave.
The further inside, the road narrowed and darkened, and finally turned into a narrow rock gap.
Walking to the back, some statues of gods carved into the rock wall gradually appeared, as well as some traces of sacrificial rituals.
Ahead is the end of the tunnel.
The two quickened their pace.
When they left the cave, they found that they had come to a valley. Ahead is a wooden bridge with red broken flags on both sides.
The wind blew from the left, and the heavens and the earth were full of whistling winds, as if ghosts were crying and howling.
There is a palace in front of the wooden bridge with the gate half open. On the left and right sides of the palace stand golden statues of gods.
"Let's go in and have a look." Su Bai shouted loudly at Laura.
The wind was too loud to shout loudly and couldn't hear what was being said.
"Okay."
Naturally, Laura would not object.
He took the girl's hand and walked towards the wooden bridge.
As soon as he stepped onto the wooden bridge, Su Bai felt a strong force constantly trying to push himself to the right.
He could only bend down, trying his best to maintain his body's steady balance, while loudly reminding Laura: "Be careful, the wind is too strong." Hold my hand, let's get over as soon as possible! ”
The two of them bent over, struggling to move forward little by little on the wooden bridge.
After much effort, they finally crossed the bridge and entered the palace.
The window on the left side of the hall was open, and the wind blew in through the window, making a sharp whistling sound.
Su Bai immediately ran over, found the crank mechanism that controlled the window switch, and shook it to close the window.
For a moment, it was a lot quieter.
Then, he walked back to Laura, who was surveying the main hall, and asked, "Did you find anything?" ”
Laura pointed to the high platform in the center of the hall, "Maybe we should go up and have a look." ”
The two climbed up to the high platform and saw two golden statues lined up on either side of a small door. Standing outside the door, you can see the light inside.
"There seems to be a way out there."
Laura said, and walked inside. Su Bai hurriedly followed.
"Be careful. In this kind of place, there may be an agency or something. ”
Walking up to the girl and walking side by side with her, Su Bai looked around vigilantly.
They didn't go far before they came to a crossroads, with dark passages leading to nowhere.
"One person on the side, check the situation, and then go back here to gather."
Su Bai said to Laura.
Laura nodded, and the two of them walked towards the left and right passages.
Moments later, they returned to the crossroads.
"The passage has collapsed, and there is no way to move on." Laura shook her head.
"Me too." Su Bai frowned, and then looked ahead, "It seems that there is only one way left, I hope there can be a way outside." Let's go, Laura. ”
They walked towards the front.
I saw tall statues of gods erected on both sides of the passage along the way, which looked like they should be priestesses of the sun.
"Is this part of some large ruin?"
Laura guessed as she looked at the idols on either side.
Soon, they came to the end of the passage.
In front of it is a stone platform filled with red candles. Skulls and bones are inserted into the stone platform, as if as part of some kind of ritual sacrifice.
Behind the stone platform, it is a bright place.
"We should be able to get out of here."
As soon as Su Bai's spirits lifted, he was about to climb the stone platform.
"Wait, Sue. There's a treasure chest here! Laura suddenly shouted.
"Huh? Treasure chests? ”
Su Bai then remembered this stubble.
In the game, there is a treasure chest in each side tomb.
He turned around and saw Laura open the lid of a treasure chest on the left side of the stone platform, and a brilliant golden light emerged from it.
"Did you find anything?"
Su Bai walked up to Laura, who was rummaging through the treasure chest, and asked.
"Here! I found a scroll. ”
Laura took out something from the pile of utensils and treasures in the treasure chest, turned around and brought it to Su Bai.
"Let's see what's inside."
Su Bai urged with some expectation.
Although he doesn't remember the details of the game very clearly, he still remembers that the current situation has definitely deviated greatly from the game.
For example, the so-called Taiping Sutra fragments, there is absolutely no such thing in the game.
So he was curious to see what the scroll would be - it could never be a treasure map from the game.
At this time, Laura had already opened the scroll. A silk silk fell from it and fell to the ground.
"What is this?"
She didn't bother to examine the contents of the scroll, stooped down to pick up the silk silk, and unfolded it to look at it, her face showing surprise.
"Sue." The girl turned her head to look at Laura, and handed the silk silk to Su Bai, "This seems to be the same one we found before...... Part of the Taiping Sutra. ”
"What?"
Su Bai was startled, and immediately reached out to take the silk silk, and then heard the sound of the machine.
"Obtain the key item of this world [Taiping Sutra (Fragment)]. Collect all the key items to get the World Core. ”
"The current collection progress has reached 50%, and the analysis ...... begins"
Unlike the first time I got the fragment, this time it prompts the collection progress, and ......
"What is the so-called analysis? Taiping Sutra? Holding the silk silk in his hand, Su Bai muttered to himself.
"What did you say?" Seeing that Su Bai was stunned after getting the silk silk, Laura asked a little worriedly, "Are you okay, Su?" ”
Su Bai came back to his senses and shook his head: "I'm fine." ”
After speaking, he lowered his head and unfolded the silk silk, and sure enough, he saw that it was full of vague and strange words.
He took out another piece of silk silk from his pocket and unfolded it, and when he compared, the style and handwriting of the two were really the same.
"That's right, this is also a fragment of the Taiping Sutra."
Su Bai nodded and said.
At the same time, he silently thought in his heart: "The hint says that the collection progress has reached 50%, which means that there are four copies in total?" ”
Seeing that he looked like he was thinking about something, Laura had a trace of worry in her eyes, but she didn't say anything to interrupt his thoughts.
After thinking for a while and unable to find any clue, Su Bai stopped thinking. Stacking the two pieces of silk silk on top of each other, he said to Laura, "All right, let's see what's on that scroll." ”
Laura nodded, picked up the scroll and reopened it, taking a closer look.
"It seems to be an edict......
She muttered as she watched.
After a moment, her eyes widened suddenly: "This is the Sun Queen's enthronement hall!" ”
"Enthronement Hall?"
Su Bai looked around: "Just such a shabby place?" ”
"No, it should only be part of it. It's just that the passage has collapsed, and we can't see the whole picture of the entire enthronement hall. It must be a spectacular place......"
Laura put down the scroll and let out a long breath.
Su Bai shrugged his shoulders and was noncommittal.
"Alright, let's get out of here first."
He said to Laura.
"Okay."
Laura nodded, and put the scroll away in her bag.
Immediately, the two climbed onto the stone platform.
Looking at the bones on the ground, Laura took a slight breath: "What a cruel and barbaric act. ”
