4.16 The Sixth Key Down
Thanks to the young master of the southern country, the winning short, and the monthly ticket of the firewood knife eight bars.
PS: Please take a closer look -
The stone gate is engraved with patterns and statues full of evil beauty. Wu Chen looked like the face of a female demon hidden behind the sulfur flames.
"Dust?" Avella gently tugged at Wu Chen's sleeve.
"Avella, it looks like this is the door to your mistress's tomb."
"But we haven't found the ritual dagger or the magic scroll that weakens her." Avella suddenly tensed.
Wu Chen nodded noncommittally, tried to use the golden key to aim at the keyhole hidden in the demon's mouth, and inserted it gently, and sure enough, it was a perfect fit.
"If the legends are true, it seems that the ritual dagger and scroll that killed Queen Imelda are sleeping with the Queen."
"If that's the case......" Avella felt a deep sense of crisis.
"Avella, what would you choose?" Wu Chen didn't insert all the keys, but just kept it slightly connected to the keyhole.
"Dust, can't you go in. I'll be with you. Avella made a choice.
Wu Chen nodded: "Be careful." ”
As he spoke, the key was slowly inserted into the lock cylinder, and with a slight flick, the mechanism hidden in the stone door drove the door to open slowly.
It's a messy space.
The ruins of many buildings are eerily suspended in the circular deep well burial chambers. The burial chamber was very deep, and Wu Chen stood on the edge and stretched out his head to look down, except for the broken hanging ladder that stretched out around the stone wall. Inside the hollow deep well, only a thick gray fog remained.
A thick white mist hung in the middle of the deep well. obscured Wu Chen's downward gaze. It also obscures the unfathomable abyss.
The stairs at the entrance are all broken. Floated in mid-air. There is no place to stay.
After seeing it, Avella couldn't help frowning: "Dust, what should I do next?" ”
Wu Chen has experienced a similar situation.
For example, when the Hammer Tissue was sealed in the electronic world, the final pass was similar to now, and the suspended ruins were repaired by Gaia in a time-reversal way.
According to his understanding, this should be the deep memory of the ignition.
This dusty memory, because of the long history. Therefore, the 'timeline' has become chaotic, and even many fragments of memory have slowly worn away and dissipated in the long river of history, which is why it has caused today's chaos and a foggy gray.
"Castle, hostess, guard, dark creatures......" silently reciting these important 'adventure elements', Wu Chen seemed to have an epiphany.
"Did the master find something?" TT40 asked.
"Well, let's not talk about it yet." Wu Chen took out the lightning finger potion from his backpack, raised his head and drank it. As a warm liquid flowed into the pouch of his stomach, a faint electric current began to converge through his limbs and towards his fingertips. With Wu Chen's finger lightly. Tip discharge began.
I saw a bolt of lightning fly out of my finger and hit the opposite wall of the well.
A flask can only release the Lightning Finger once.
Wu Chen drank all the potions in his backpack. The general will be released 10 times.
The last one finally had an effect.
The sparkling electric sparks began to coalesce in the deep well.
"I used the electric shock to reactivate the cranial nerves that store this part of the memory." Without waiting for TT40 to ask, Wu Chen smiled and solved the mystery. A similar situation,He also encountered it in the world of the beautiful girl special attack team built in the source code.。
As the lightning struck the wall of the well, it quickly spread deep along the hollow well. Those entrenched in the white mist in the depths of the tombs, cirrus clouds churned, lightning flashed and thundered.
"Could it be ......" TT40 suddenly realized: "This castle is the body of the ignitee?!" ”
"To be precise, this castle is the brains of the ignitors." Under Wu Chen's gaze, the gray wall of the well gradually returned to its brightness, and the stone wreckage floating in mid-air also quickly returned to its place, forming a rotating staircase around the wall of the well.
When the last clouds and mist dissipated in the vanishing electric light, a beautiful tomb seemed to have turned back in time, and then it was restored to its former glory.
When Wu Chen fetched the torch and helped Avella down the stone steps to the bottom of the tomb, TT40 was still calculating quickly. She also wanted to know what Wu Chen had discovered as soon as possible!
The ladder is shorter than expected.
TT40 hadn't come up with a result yet, and Wu Chen had already helped Avella to the bottom of the tomb. Directly in front of him was a gilded door. The door was unlocked and opened with a slight push. When the light from the deep well penetrated through the cracks in the door and illuminated the burial chamber, the torches on the surrounding walls lit themselves and illuminated the lavish burial chamber.
The burial chamber is not large.
The whole is circular in shape, and the top is a curved dome. The dome is covered with frescoes of fire and blood, imbued with evil beauty.
In the center of the hall is a sarcophagus made of obsidian. On the sarcophagus lies a statue of a woman.
That's right, a statue of a woman lying on top of a sarcophagus.
"How is that possible?" Avella walked up quickly, looking around but couldn't find the mechanism to open the sarcophagus.
"Master, this is a solid sculpture." The TT40's scan gives the answer. In other words, this sarcophagus and this woman statue are a solid sculpture that is connected together. There is no room for Tibetans inside.
"Dust, what's going on?" Avella's face was full of incredulity.
However, Wu Chen, who has another understanding of sculpture, is not surprised: "Avella, sometimes time turns some life into stone. Like what...... Fossil. ”
"Fossils?" Avella, who lives in modern society, clearly knows what fossils are all about. "But dust, has my grandmother also become a fossil?"
"That's right. The stone skin that encased her was hard. If she hadn't disappeared from this plane, that layer of unbreakable stone skin would generally be called a space-time barrier. Wu Chen stepped forward with a smile and gently wrapped his arms around the beauty's slender waist: "Now, no one will compete with you for the ownership of the castle anymore." ”
"No, there's another person." Avella shook her head slightly: "The female guest from Romania." ”
"She's Queen Imelda's illegitimate daughter." Wu Chen found a clue in the female vampire's room.
"I think so too." Avella nodded, "Are you sure ......?"
"Yes, I'm sure." Wu Chen pointed to his eyes: "She burned to ashes in front of my eyes." ”
"So dusty. What should I do? Avella seemed utterly relieved.
"Wake her up." Wu Chen pouted at the female statue on the sarcophagus.
"And then?" Avella asked again.
"Let her have the peace she deserves." Wu Chen suddenly thought of Avella's grandfather's will.
"But we don't have scrolls or daggers...... "Avella's worry was all on her face.
Wu Chen pointed to the left breast of the female stone statue and smiled: "Look." The dagger was stuck in her chest. ”
"Huh?" Avella was stunned. Rubbing his eyes. I looked very carefully along Wu Chen's fingers, and sure enough, I saw a strange bulge.
"What's going on......"
"Avella, where did you learn about the legend of your grandmother?"
"It's from ......" The woman tried hard to recall, but couldn't think of anything.
Wu Chen's expression was not surprised at all. "Avella, I have an old story too, do you want to hear it?"
"What is it, dust?"
"Here's the story I'm going to tell." Wu Chen said softly: "Once upon a time. There was a beautiful woman who made a pact with the devil in order to satisfy her selfish desires. However, as time passed, the woman began to reflect on the transaction that sold her soul. So she secretly gathered strength and prepared to resist the slavery of the devil. Even in order to escape the devil, she built a strong castle for herself and hired a lot of guards. However, the devil eventually found her and killed her. Before dying, she quietly split her soul into two, one back to the past and the other to the future. And the devil who hurt her is caught in the 'present' by the rift between the 'past' and the 'future' that divides her. So he was sealed in the 'crack of thought'. ”
It's very abstract. In fact, the process is very easy to understand.
As the ultimate unity of matter and spirit, Kindlaire divides her personality, memory, and even spiritual power into two. So there is a split in the whole space of thought. And the patron saint of the Fire Dragon Empire, which has its own timeline, is stranded on the timescale that is interlaced with the timeline of the ignitor-Kindlaire. This timescale is 'now'.
To give a not-so-vivid example: if you compare the time circuit of the two people, the patron saint of the Fire Dragon Empire and the ignitor - Kindlaire, to two gears, because they are tightly bitten, the gears can function normally, but when the ignition - Kindlaire tears his gear and breaks off a tooth, the gear of the guardian saint of the Fire Dragon Empire is stuck in this gap.
This crack that tears apart the gears is the crack of thinking.
And this broken tooth carries the time scale, which is 'now'.
If you want the gears of the Patron Deity of the Fire Dragon Empire to reconnect to the time circuit of the Igniter-Kindley, then the broken tooth must be replaced.
And the way to repair the gears is simple: bring the past and the future closer to each other, like the poles of a magnet attracting each other and re-bridging. Let the artificially interrupted time loop flow again.
It is also important to note here that what is stuck is only the intersection of two time loops. For both circuits themselves, it was not affected.
In short: the two have lived a good life, but they never intersect with each other again.
"How can I defeat the devil and bring peace to my grandmother?" Avella got to the point.
"We need a warrior, and the one in the future." Wu Chen gave the answer with a smile.
"The distant future in the fable is, 'now.'" Avella repeated the ancient prophecy she had made when she first met Wu Chen, and gradually came to her senses.
TT40 also understood: "Master, so the castle is the brain of the ignitor - Kindlaire, the owner of the castle, that is, the master of the brain." So Imelda and Avella are the two split bodies of consciousness that ignite the ignition-Kindlaire? One for the past, one for the future? ”
"That's right, TT40."
Therefore, the battle between the two women for the castle is actually the battle for the mastery of consciousness. And as long as the past and the future are fused into a whole, the seal can be lifted and the devil in the gap between the minds can be released?! ”
"Yes, TT40."
"So dust, are you my hero, protect me forever?" When Avira said this, she had actually made up her mind.
"Of course." Wu Chen nodded calmly.
"Honey, what should I do?" (To be continued.) )
