Chapter 18: The Blood Sacrifice
A series of questions piled up in my mind, and I felt a little overwhelmed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info I never thought things would be on such a trajectory.
I stared at the top of my head and found that there was nothing but endless darkness. It was a very powerless feeling, and I wanted to find the vampire snow lotus, but I was also vaguely worried that it would appear.
The sound of and bald guys talking was still in his ears, and at some point, Zhou Qing suddenly shouted: "Enron, are you awake?" ”
Next, and bald guys also surrounded them.
The was a little excited, slapped one hand on my chest, and said with a smile: "An Ran, I'll just say that you are a nine-life cat demon and can't die." ”
The was a little stronger, and after the slap, the pain in the chest tear immediately erupted, and I couldn't help but grin. Seeing this, the nigger withdrew his hand stupidly, and said, "Damn, I was so excited that I forgot about the wound on your chest for a while." ”
I smiled wryly, gritted my teeth, and finally spit out two words: It's okay.
I really wanted to find out what was going on, but every time I tried to speak, I always felt that I didn't have enough breath, so I just gave up. With Qiushui's help, I lay down again. I don't know when, I fell asleep again.
I had a long dream in which I had a lot of people I had never met before, and some strange things. Finally, I saw the blood-red snow lotus, which opened a bloody mouth at me...... The scene was so horrible that I woke up all at once.
The moment he opened his eyes, Qiushui's voice came: "You're awake." ”
I subconsciously replied and woke up.
Although it was just two simple words, it felt a lot easier to say it, and it seemed that I was recovering well. Although there was still a slight ache in his body, he was in good spirits.
I looked around and saw that we were in the burial chamber where the coffin of the ship was kept. On the ground directly in front of me, the and the bald guy were hugging each other, and they slept very funny. Zhou Qing, who was diagonally opposite, was curled up alone, and psychologists said that this sleeping position was due to a lack of security.
I was about to ask Qiushui something, but he preemptively said, "Enron, what did you see at the last moment?" ”
I'm a little puzzled, didn't I see the Dark Blood Lotus at the last moment? So he blurted out, Blood Lotus. But as soon as I finished speaking, a scene suddenly attacked me, and I couldn't help but shudder.
I distinctly remember that I was lying on the ground, but the blood lotus above my head was sucking my blood drop by drop.
"The magnetic field, it seems, has reversed." So I spit it all out.
Qiushui was not surprised, listening to me talk about this strange phenomenon was like listening to an innocent story. In the darkness, a sudden tsk sounded: "There is a problem with the analysis." ”
This voice is familiar to me, a shadow. I looked over, but he responded to me with an idiot look: "If there is a problem with the magnetic field, it can't be only you who feel it." The only possibility is that this formation is aimed at you. ”
The words of the shadow make me feel like five thunders are on the top. This inexplicable snow lotus pattern turned out to be a formation, and it was still targeted. Could it be that he Du Fang, and he still knows that after a thousand years, I will enter here?
At this time, the also woke up. The bald guy looked at a map for a long time and said, "According to the map, we should be on the periphery of the ship's coffin tomb now. “
When the heard this, he immediately exclaimed, "Bald, you mean, we haven't gone in yet?" ”
The bald guy was thoughtful, and only turned to me for a long time: "Enron, who are you being held hostage?" Where to go, is it still clear? “
I shook my head, indicating that I was confused too. At this point, I asked, "Where did you find me?" ”
As soon as I said this, both the and Professor Liang looked at me, and they suddenly became embarrassed.
The pointed to the coffin on the right side and pondered for a while before saying, "You were lying in it at the time, covered in ****, with multiple wounds on your chest, and you had passed out because of excessive blood loss." ”
I was suddenly a little puzzled, isn't this an extra move by the mysterious man? Whether my blood is effective or not, it will not be able to transfer me again, for fear that I will snoop into its secrets?
I briefly talked to the and the bald guy about the situation, and both the and the bald guy were shocked. And Zhou Qing was beyond expectations, even calmer than these two guys.
I suddenly felt that I had underestimated her before.
Because of my injury, in the name of rest, the few of us then discussed for nearly half an hour, but the more things were resolved, the more chaotic they became. It wasn't until later that Qiushui said two words that all the clues were connected.
Even when I think about it, I'm still scared. Qiushui's two loud words turned out to be appalling: blood sacrifice.
Blood sacrifices have always been recorded. Especially in ancient times, many ceremonies would have this process. In the beginning, the blood of animals was symbolically used as sacrifices to the spirits of the dead and gods. With the perversion of such rituals, all of them later began to take the blood of living people.
Whether it is a living sacrifice or a living blood sacrifice, in my opinion in the past, it was actually a manifestation of psychopathy. But the lingering scenes in my mind gave me a new understanding of this mysterious way of worship.
I was afraid.
When I looked at my own blood, and after the drops converged into the pattern of the mysterious dark blood lotus, it actually seemed to be alive, and all the lines were flowing with my blood. It was so arrogant and silent, as if it were a matter of course.
When the heard Qiushui's words, he also frowned, and said, "Qiu Shao, are you sure?" ”
Qiushui nodded and said softly, "Dark Blood Lotus, as the name suggests. “
At this time, Zhou Qing, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked, "It can't be so simple. My father spent his whole life working on it, and eventually fell victim to it. I always felt that it must have some special meaning. ”
Zhou Qing's words naturally make sense, but now that the blood lotus on my body has also been taken away, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to unlock this secret.
At this time, the shadow suddenly joked: "We are here to rob the tomb, not to sensationalize." Do you want to go? ”
After the shadow finished speaking, the few of us then repaired it, and then formed a small column headed by the bald man, and began to circle into one of the passages of the cave.
Not to mention, these passages are indeed as they appear on the surface, extending in all directions. Whichever way we enter, when we come out, it will be the cave with the coffin of the ship.
