Chapter 8: Liquid Gold
Shen Lie, who climbed into the main hall, didn't care about anything else at all, and immediately went crazy looking for the button to open the teleportation array, in his thoughts, if this Xie Wenlu is also a teleportation array, then the method of opening it should be the same as in the previous cave.

Searching repeatedly along the dense lines, there was no omission of the slightest, and slowly Shen Lie's eyes changed from hope to anxiety, and gradually became dim and desperate.
No!
There was no switch on the entire ground that could be pressed, and he found that some of these lines were broken, and even if he found the switch, he probably wouldn't be able to turn it on.
The successive blows finally destroyed Shen Lie's spirit, and he sat down on the ground weakly, all thoughts in despair.
"What does it smell like?"
When Shen Lie had just closed his eyes and was about to wait for death, he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance, and the hungry cells were immediately attracted to become active, and he immediately opened his eyes and looked around.
Following the source of the fragrance, Shen Lie easily found a golden cylinder, but he didn't pay attention to it when he was only looking for the switch. The cylinder was about a foot in diameter, and was covered by a golden lid through which the aroma came out.
Now Shen Lie didn't care about any danger or not, and without hesitation, he opened the lid and looked at the things inside.
"Is this...
After opening the lid, Shen Lie saw a large half of the liquid in color, the color was golden, I don't know if the liquid itself is this color or caused by the cylinder mapping, but at this time he didn't bother to verify anything, he didn't hold the cylinder twice, so he simply plunged down and drank it in a big gulp.
As for whether the liquid in it was wine or not, whether it was poisonous or not, it was not in his consideration, he only knew that if he didn't get something in his stomach, he would go to the underworld to report immediately, so even if it was mercury or Meng Po soup in the basin, he would have to take a few sips.
As soon as the liquid entered the mouth, there was a faint fragrance, and as soon as he was tempted by this fragrance, Shen Lie's hunger suddenly became more and more intense, and he couldn't stop drinking at all, and finally simply tilted the cylinder over and drank all the liquid inside in one go!
"Hot!"
"It's hot!"
"It's very hot!"
Before Shen Lie could put down the stone basin after all the liquid was drunk, he felt an unparalleled feeling of heat erupting from his internal organs, as if a barrel of gasoline had been ignited in his stomach.
Shen Lie had no doubt that he would be turned into ashes in the next moment, but he didn't regret it, even if he didn't drink these liquids, he would inevitably die, with his current physical strength, I am afraid that it would be difficult to climb back to the hall on the ground, not to mention that the ground is not so safe.
Shen Lie didn't know that the big bug monster had left, and even if he knew, he wouldn't think much about it, his body had reached a state of running out of oil, and even if he let him out of this space, it would just add an extra snack to those spider monsters.
A violent burning sensation scurried through Shen Lie's body, giving him the experience of lighting a sky lantern, but the pain came and went so fast that he couldn't feel it for a moment—because he fainted!
Shen Lie, who had fainted, finally got rid of the boundless pain, and he also didn't see that the entire top of the hall was also covered with strange patterns, and all of them slowly disappeared at this moment. And at the moment when all the patterns disappeared, the black cylindrical object inserted into the head of the golden skull on the chair suddenly emitted bursts of light and began to buzz!
The black cylindrical object was no more than a foot long, but it shook so loudly that not only the golden skull was almost falling apart, but even the red chair and the golden platform and the entire hall shook slightly.
If this situation continues, it is estimated that it will not be long before this underground space is in danger of collapsing, but at this time, the patterns on the top of the main hall that are about to disappear suddenly shine brightly, and then all the patterns begin to gather together, and finally gather in one place to form the shape of a water droplet, and then this 'water droplet' suddenly dripped from above, and fell right on the black cylindrical object that was buzzing and shaking!
By this 'drop' of water, the black metal cylinder slowly quieted down like a flame doused by water, and finally regained its calm completely. And the strange patterns on the top of the main hall also appeared on it again, as if nothing had happened before.
・・・・・・
Shen Lie was in a coma for a long time, and as time went by, his body also underwent strange changes, his exposed skin slowly turned pale gold, and what was even more exaggerated was that a hard bulge actually grew on the top of his head!
That's not all, his feet and hands, as well as his facial features and face, are gradually changing, some places begin to expand, some places are slowly shrinking, the body structure has changed dramatically, if Shen Lie is awake and has a mirror, he will be horrified to find that he has turned into a monster that looks like a cow!
The mutation continued for more than an hour before it stopped. In the end, Shen Lie did not completely turn into a cow, and still retained some human characteristics, but it looked even more terrifying, like a bull demon in a mythological novel.
At the moment when Shen Lie's body was completely shaped, the golden skeleton on the dark red chair suddenly emitted a burst of intense golden light, and then I saw that the strange patterns on the top of the main hall began to flicker again, and this time even those lines on the ground began to shine together, turning the entire hall into a sea of gold!
As the light on the golden skull's body became more and more intense, those glowing lines suddenly and quickly converged together as if they had received some signal to summon them, and finally all the lines turned into a dark golden ball of light the size of a skull, and this ball of light only paused for a moment and then fell on the black cylindrical metal object inserted in the head of the golden skull, and turned into a piece of dark gold light to wrap the metal object.
As soon as the metal object was wrapped in this ball of light, it suddenly made a buzzing vibration sound, shaking the light that wrapped it flickering brightly and dimly, but for a while, it was helpless.
At the same time, the light in the golden skeleton's body instantly radiated to the extreme, and then exploded as if it was overwhelmed, and the golden bones shattered piece by piece, scattering onto the golden platform.
The strange thing is that after the golden skull shelf was shattered, the black cylindrical metal was still floating in mid-air, and it did not fall to the ground because it lost its support point, but because there was no golden skull to block it, he could see the whole picture of this metal object.
The black metal object in the skull was pointed, and on the tip was a golden thumb-belly-sized object that was shaking like a drop of liquid.
"Moo!!"
After the drop of liquid swayed on the metal tip for a while, it actually made a muffled sound, and then burst out with a dazzling light, and then as if it had used all its strength, it suddenly got rid of the black metal tip, and went straight to the unconscious Shen Lie on the ground with a joyful breath.
Shen Lie, who was in a coma, felt a danger approaching him, if he didn't take any action, the end would be worse than death, and with a frightened consciousness on his back, he opened his eyes in an instant.
The first scene of opening his eyes saw the drop of golden liquid that was 'rushing' towards him, and subconsciously felt that it was not good, Shen Lie immediately planned to roll to the side, although he didn't know what the consequences of being touched by this liquid were, but he didn't want to try anything for such a strange scene.
But something frightened Shen Lie happened, he suddenly found that his body was not able to follow the instructions of the brain, in other words, he couldn't move, he couldn't even move a little finger, so even if he was unwilling, he could only watch that drop of golden liquid keep approaching at this moment!
This feeling is very bad, Shen Lie feels that waiting for the person to be executed on the court is what he feels now, but this feeling is not long, even if the speed of that drop of liquid is not fast, such a short distance is only a blink of an eye in front of him.
Shen Lie didn't close his eyes this time, he wanted to open his eyes to witness his misfortune, in fact, there was still a trace of expectation in his heart, hoping that this liquid was not as dangerous as he thought, maybe it was just something slightly abnormal.
Shen Lie didn't feel the power of this drop of liquid in the end, because just as this drop of liquid was about to touch the center of his eyebrows, the cylindrical metal that had been suspended in the air before suddenly erupted into a black light, accompanied by a piercing roar, and then a drop of black liquid shot out from the black light, hitting the golden liquid at an extremely fast speed when the golden liquid touched him!
