Chapter 17: Shura Hell
It's not that I'm making a fuss, it's just that this passage is too abnormal. The lifelike reliefs www.biquge.info pen ~ fun ~ pavilion are like bloodthirsty ghosts hiding in the abyss of hell, and those who are dancing their teeth and claws seem to be about to break out from the walls on both sides and the ceiling, and pounce on me and Mu Zihan who are walking in the passage.
Suddenly, I remembered a legend that in the Middle Ages in Europe, some murderous aristocrats, in order to punish the commoners who offended them, would embed them alive in the walls and make reliefs, so as to set an example for the monkeys.
Could it be that all these terrifying reliefs that fill the passages are made in this way?
Thinking of this, my heart is even more furious, I only feel a cold sweat behind my back, as if someone is following behind me. The only feeling is regret, I knew it was like this, I really would rather not turn on the lights. Because, although Mu Zihan and I were struggling and moving slowly due to the darkness just now, at least we didn't need to be as frightened and suspicious as we are now.
"Zihan, what's going on? What kind of channel is this? While I continued to move forward closely behind Mu Zihan, I couldn't help but ask with palpitations.
"Scared? Haha, let me tell you, the first time I came in, I was shocked when I saw this. The scene formed by these reliefs is definitely a veritable lair of evil spirits. That's why I reminded you not to touch the walls on both sides of the passage. Because, in a place like this, there is a high probability that there are many dangerous mechanisms hidden. Mu Zihan seemed to be very relaxed, and even smiled a little: "As for the real purpose of this passage, I think it should be the underground cantonment passage of this ancient castle, as well as the escape passage." ”
"Underground cantonment passages? Escape route? I asked curiously.
As soon as Mu Zihan said it in a relaxed tone, I seemed to be somewhat infected by him, and I was no longer as afraid as before, but began to be curious about this passage.
"That's right. In medieval Europe, too, there were wars for land and religion. Those nobles who owned fiefs were like princes and kings, standing in their fiefs. Not only did they have the power to collect taxes, but they also had the power to fight. Therefore, the fiefdom nobles often go to war with each other for some reason. Mu Zihan explained.
As he spoke, he also pointed to the surroundings of the passage: "And according to my idea, the function of this passage is to hide a part of the soldiers in the passage." Then when you start a war with the enemy, you can suddenly kill from the enemy's rear, and you can also have the effect of surprise, in the era of cold weapons, this kind of surprise is a very effective tactic. ”
Seeing that I heard it with relish, he further explained: "Moreover, it is also connected to the twin towers, and if there is an enemy who is really invincible, the owner of the castle can rely on this passage to escape." So, in fact, I estimate that there must be other passages that can directly enter the twin towers from inside the castle, but it may have been lost due to its age and relocation. ”
"I see, then there is no need to deliberately make so many scary reliefs." I complained, "I almost screamed out with fright. ”
"The reason for doing this, I think the purpose of the owner of the castle at that time was to make people think that this was a lair of evil spirits, the abyss of hell, so as to scare off those who entered the passage and make them dare not explore deeply." Mu Zihan said: "Otherwise, if the enemy discovers the entrance of this passage, and then sneaks into the ancient castle, wouldn't building such an underground passage lead the wolf into the house?" ”
As we were talking, we were almost at the end of the passage, so Mu Zihan and I unconsciously quickened our pace. However, when we stepped side by side through a stone door and saw the scene in the hall behind the end of the passage, I was really going to collapse.
If there were so many terrifying stone carvings arranged in the passage before, then it can be explained by Mu Zihan's reason, and I can already explain it. But why do you have to create a scene of blood pool hell in the twin towers where you live?
I now finally know why the old "Count Butterfly", Hu Feifei or Millie have such eccentric personalities. Imagine staying in this environment for a long time, even if you are a normal person, it is estimated that you will become a neurotic.
"This ......" I don't know what words to use to describe how I feel at the moment, so I can only keep pouting.
Seeing my appearance, Mu Zihan smiled and said, "What? Terrifying, isn't it? Siyuan, do you remember what I told you about Count Dracula's deeds? He really wears the captives alive into skewers on wooden stakes, so compared to him, the tricks of this 'Count of Butterflies' are just pediatrics. ”
As he spoke, he didn't wait for me to answer, he walked directly to the back of a demon sculpture, looked at me and said, "Let's go, Siyuan, this is only the lowest level of the twin towers, and the entrance to the stairs is here." ”
I walked over a little sluggishly to see that there was a slender entrance that could only fit one person through, and behind the entrance was a staircase that spiraled up between the outer and inner walls of the twin towers.
However, when I saw the stairs, I really began to wonder for the first time whether I should continue or not, because they were actually made of stone arms sticking out of the walls on both sides.
It doesn't matter if it's strong or not, it won't suddenly break if I step on it, and I will fall into the cracks in the dark walls. Just stepping up such a staircase, I felt like I was going crazy.
Seeing that I hadn't followed for a long time, Mu Zihan, who had already started to climb the stairs in front, looked back at me and said, "What's the matter, Siyuan?" Don't worry, these stone arms don't look very strong, but they are actually very strong, and I checked them last time I visited, and they must have been cast with iron. ”
"It's not a matter of solidity, I also know that these stairs should be strong, otherwise it would not have survived to this day, after all, this is a medieval castle, but... Ay. I sighed and sighed, not knowing how to express what I was feeling at the moment.
After thinking for a while, he said with great annoyance: "Zihan, don't you think this place is too perverted?" I thought that the passage, which was covered with terrifying ghost reliefs, was already disgusting. I didn't expect that the inside of these twin towers was even more perverted. It's like we're walking in Shura's hell now, don't you feel an indescribable sense of tiredness? ”
It may be that I have been exposed to so many strange and eerie things at once, and the negative energy in my heart has completely exploded, and I don't want to care about anything now, I just want to leave this disgusting, perverted and terrifying place quickly.
