Chapter Ninety-Six: Finding the Altar
Let Chen Fa take care of Xu Ding, and Han Yu went to the island alone to investigate the situation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The island is not large, and there was originally supposed to be a suspension bridge between the two islands as a connection, but it has fallen into disrepair and has long since weathered and broken into several knots.
There was no way, Han Yu could only use the old method, which was to go down to the sea, swim over there, and go ashore again.
The island is not big, strictly speaking, it is just a huge reef, Han Yu is not mistaken, the middle of the island is indeed the altar he has been looking for for a long time.
After getting closer, Han Yu realized that this altar was not so simple, it was carved from a part of the central protrusion on this reef, and it was integrated with the whole island, and it was natural.
There is no lack of delicate and complex patterns on it, such as human patterns, bird head patterns, and flower and grass patterns, Han Yu looked at it, surprised by the magic of the ancients, and was also extremely admired.
The craftsmanship of this hand-carved hand, which is now a hundred times stronger than those so-called masters!
There is only one lone altar on the entire island, but the altar is surrounded by flat ground, which must have been dug out by hand.
You can imagine how lively the large-scale festival scene was many years ago! If this venue is packed with people, it will be an unprecedented spectacle of thousands of people!
Han Yu actually wanted to find out if there was any stone tablet or other text that recorded the origin and past of this altar, but unfortunately, he had nothing to gain otherwise.
Now that the location of the altar has been determined, the next step is to wait for Xu Ding to wake up, and by the way, to prepare the equipment and sacrifices to be used for the sacrifice.
"Chen Fa, how many materials are missing?" Speaking of this, Han Yu asked at Chen Fa.
Chen Fa took out a piece of tissue paper from his arms, which recorded the materials he had collected, and after looking at it all the way, there was still one thing missing.
"There is still a 'invisible blood' that I haven't found, I have thought about it, and I have looked through many ancient books, although I can roughly determine what kind of creature it is, but I have never seen it, and I don't know where to find it." Chen Fa said.
"Invisible blood? What is the blood of a living being? What that creature looks like, we brainstorm. Han Yu stopped and said.
The materials were not ready, and it was useless to go to the altar at this time.
"It's called formless, it's a formless and colorless, invisible creature, but it can be touched, and I don't know what it looks like, because not many people in the world have seen it." Chen Fa said helplessly.
"Invisible and colorless, invisible but touchable? Why do I feel so familiar......" Han Yu muttered to himself, racking his brains to think.
"Yes! How is it so familiar? Xu Ding also had a sense of déjà vu, the two of them thought, and suddenly they were stunned and looked at each other in surprise.
"Isn't that the one? The first time we visited, we met on the way to the island! Han Yu said first, and Xu Ding nodded again and again.
"Yes yes, I just wanted to say that too! Last time, it pulled my feet, and if it weren't for you, I would be miserable! Xu Ding said, his face full of eagerness.
"Have you ever seen the invisible? In what place? Chen Fa listened to it for a while, and then heard some taste, and when he saw the excited appearance of the two, he hurriedly asked.
Han Yu explained his experience with Xu Ding when he first came to the environmental space, his eyes were full of excitement.
"Is it in the sea? How I didn't think of it! ā
Chen Fa suddenly realized, but it was just ...... Are they going back to where they came? This back and forth is bound to take a lot of time!
Han Yu seemed to have thought of this as well, and the initial excitement slowly faded away, calmed down, and finally sighed.
"It's not impossible to go back and look for it, but ...... My concern is that it is swimming in the sea, it was there the last time we went, but it may not be there now! It won't wait in place just because we're going to use its blood. ā
Han Yu said, his face full of helplessness.
"No, he must be there! You don't know that the invisible is a living thing, but it is not an animal, but a plant! Because it's a plant, it can't move, and it grows wherever it is. ā
Chen Fa said with excitement on his face, the matter finally has an eyebrow, and there are clues to this last material, presumably he will soon be able to see the long-lost great sacrifice.
How many years ago was the last time I saw the Sea Clan Hero Sacrifice? Chen Fa can't remember anymore, day after day, year after year, his passion has been exhausted, and his memory has been carried to a more distant era.
After determining their goal, the three of them changed direction halfway and walked back.
Last time it took them more than half a month to find the altar. But the way back was easy, and when they returned to the village again, it was only about two days later.
I thought that the next road would be a little better, but several people ran into big trouble.
"The Village...... What the hell is going on! ā
The one with the best eyesight was Han Yu, they had already approached the village, and they originally thought that in order not to disgust the villagers, they would just take a detour from the edge of the village.
But when Han Yu saw the scene in front of him, he temporarily changed his route.
"What's wrong?" Xu Ding had not trained his mental power, so he was not like Han Yu, who already knew what was going on in advance.
"I don't know, do you see that black smoke?" Han Yu shook his head and pointed ahead.
Xu Ding and Chen Fa tried to identify it, then nodded, they did see a black smoke rising in the direction of the village, which was much larger than the cooking smoke.
"Something seems to have happened in the village, let's speed up!" Han Yu's face turned pale and said solemnly.
The black smoke is a combination of the fire and the smoke that comes out when the house is on fire.
This village has existed for thousands of years, and the villagers generally help each other when they are in trouble, occasionally with a little friction, and they will be reconciled in two days, and it is impossible to watch other people's houses catch fire and do nothing to stand by.
The only explanation is that they are no longer able to protect themselves.
Realizing the seriousness of the matter, the three of them couldn't help but speed up their pace and ran all the way back to the village entrance, but they were stunned by the scene in front of them.
What caught the eye was a mess, the houses had burned down to the ground, and the most cruel thing was ......
Corpses are everywhere!
After all, it was the place where he was born and raised, and he grew up from childhood to adulthood, Chen Fa's eyes suddenly turned red, and he watched all this with tears in his eyes, and a hoarse voice came out of his throat with difficulty.
"Who the hell did that?"
