Chapter 36: The Devil in the Shadows

Bang Bang Bang Bang ...... The sound was louder. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"This is? Groundwater? Longyan asked uncertainly.

The fat man said, "What groundwater?" This thing probably came by stepping on water, it must be a Yaksha water ghost or something! Now we're going to fold here. ”

I scolded coldly, "Can you stop the meeting?" Don't be fooling around there! ”

I think we must have opened some mechanism, and the source power of this mechanism should be underground water, but after waiting for a long time, I only heard the sound of rumbling water, and the surrounding environment did not change at all.

Suddenly, Longan sniffed his nose vigorously and asked in a deep voice, "Do you smell anything?" ”

The fat man and I sniffed vigorously a few times, and in addition to the smell of rot and dampness underground, there seemed to be a familiar smell in the air, but we couldn't remember it for a while.

"What does this smell like? Why is it like car exhaust? When I was a child, I was the rarest smell, I always chased the back of someone's car butt and smelled it, that guy didn't blow it with you, my old Zhang sometimes ran faster than the car! The fat man said triumphantly.

"Not gasoline! It's crude oil! Longyan said lightly.

I sniffed it again, because I had not been exposed to oil before, what the fat man said was too unreliable, where did these ancients get gasoline? Could it be that they mastered the method of purifying gasoline in their time? It is also an exaggeration to say that the ancients used groundwater as a power to extract oil from the ground, because this is the place where it is originally deep underground, and it is not too difficult to drill an oil mine, but for these slash-and-burn ancients, it is simply incredible.

"These ancients were able to drill wells and extract oil?" I looked at the dragon's eye suspiciously.

Longyan nodded and said: "Aircraft models can be found in ancient tombs 4,000 years ago, atomic reactors were found in underground mining areas 2 billion years ago, and the wisdom of the ancients can never be estimated with today's common sense, let alone such a simple thing as underground oil extraction?" ”

"But! What exactly do they use to collect oil? I asked, confused.

It was as if the cave heard my question, and only listened to the bang...... A series of crackling sounds lasted for half an hour.

Frightened, the three of us quickly fell to the ground, and finally I found that there was nothing unusual, and looked around, but this look, I was shocked by the scenery in front of me, and I didn't know how to describe it for a while.

I saw that the top of the huge cave and the surrounding rock walls were lit with blazing fires, because the distance was too far, the firelight was as big as the sun, but there were more stars in the night sky, and for a time the whole cave was dazzling, I really couldn't imagine that if I walked in front of these fires, I don't know how huge these fires could be.

"Is this using the power of groundwater to inject oil into a fire trough on the rock wall? The wisdom of the ancients is truly admirable! But why does this fire penetrate this very much darkness? Longyan said suspiciously.

I thought about it for a moment and said, "Maybe the substances in the air that block the transmission of light have reacted with oil and gas, or maybe the open flame has completely evaporated them." ”

Longan was noncommittal, and at this time the fat man suddenly shouted: "My motherfuck!" Look! Isn't this fucking terracotta? ”

As far as I could see, my heart was once again pounded by the wisdom of these ancients, and it turned out that at this moment we were on a very high platform, not so much a platform as a wide plateau, about the size of four football fields, and under the high ground were endless stone figurines.

There were tall stone figurines on all sides, and they all kept their heads bowed, and they were facing the three-eyed man with a long feather crown on his head in the middle of the ground, and behind the three-eyed man was the stone chamber full of dried corpses.

The shape of the stone chamber is very unique, and does not conform to all the architectural styles that can be seen in modern times, if you insist on using modern buildings to compare, it is somewhat similar to some ancient village styles of Yunnan ethnic minorities, look at the shape should be a sacrificial temple or god house, on the roof lies a strange snake with wings, this sculpture I am very familiar with, because I have seen it once under the ancient well of Huaishugou, this strange snake called the feathered serpent god, at this moment appeared in Kunlun Mountain, thousands of miles away.

"This is the King of Wailing in Biertu?" Long Yan looked at the stone sculpture in front of him and asked suspiciously.

The fat man smiled and said, "This old guy is more powerful than his mother's Qin Shi Huang, this scale!" How many terracotta warriors do you have to catch up? ”

In addition to the shock, my heart was pondering the words marked on the Bil chart: "The curse of the king of mourning, the ghost of the lamp." This sentence is not difficult to understand, the implication is obvious, it should be said that the fire in the sky may hide the soul of the loyal retinue of the King of Ailao.

"What are you thinking?" Longan noticed my uncertain expression.

I sighed and said slowly, "I'm thinking of Bill's code words. ”

The fat man said disapprerovingly: "Alas! That old god, don't listen to him, listen to him fool until you die, you can't wear pants, I'll tell you! ”

Suddenly, Longyan gently pushed me from the side, looking at her eyes seemed to prompt me to look to the ground, I looked down, this look, suddenly felt a chill down my spine, the scene in front of me at that time, it was so weird that I forgot to breathe for a while.

I saw that the shadow under the fat man was no longer round, but became quite narrow, and the narrow shadow was lying on the ground, twisting around on the ground in a strange posture, and the fat man was looking at Longyan and me blankly at this time, and did not move at all.

Looking at the shadow of the stone statue of the King of Ailao is even more weird, like a long winding worm, the shadow of the feather crown on his head is cast on the ground, like a monster with a lot of tentacles, from top to bottom, like a strange snake with tentacles, writhing back and forth on the ground, as if it will jump up from the ground at any time and attack all nearby creatures.

"Moham! The ghost under the lamplight, is it the shadow? Longyan looked at me suspiciously.

The fat man also noticed the strangeness of the shadow at this time, and he suddenly made a strange smile, which made people look like he was sneering, only to hear him say: "Don't listen to that magic stick, is it possible that these shadows can still jump up and bite us?" ”

Longyan and I widened our eyes and looked at each other, how could the fat man who had always been giggling have such a gloomy expression, I had never seen him have such an expression towards me, and my heart began to glow with a trace of coolness.

Could it really be that the old curse of the King of Lamentations has been fulfilled? The evil spirits in the ground are attached to our shadows, ready to strike a fatal blow when our will is weakest, and the fat man with the weakest willpower is already on the road at this moment, I think he will soon lose his mind and start attacking us frantically, thinking of this I can't help but think of the miserable fate of the bolt.
