Chapter 264: The Blood Terrace Leading to the Dormitory
February, 2006, date unknown.
We meet a strange creature in the Sun Tomb that can impersonate any human being. It could be a madwoman, it could be Shichima, or even the fat man who came out of the bronze pillar.
However, it was myself who suffered first, and I was almost succeeded by her! She does have the wisdom of a species like a "god", although more than an hour has passed since the incident, and Han Qingxin and the fat man's emotions have stabilized, I can feel everyone's panic.
Now in their hearts, I am afraid that no one trusts anyone anymore, and maybe she has replaced one of us. Maybe it's a fat man, maybe it's a crazy girl, or it's Shichima, who currently has a broken arm.
Shichima called her the fourth group of creatures, and I knew that one was animals, one was plants, and then there were microorganisms that humans knew very little about.
The fourth category may be more mysterious, the form of existence is unknown, whether there is involuntary consciousness is unknown, she is really terrifying, and her wisdom is beyond my expectations.
How did she gain insight into my thoughts, and was it really as she dictated, that the lantern had the function of copying? Can human memory really be replicated?
Now, everyone is studying the way to leave the Hades Temple, because the Seven Rooms have attracted a group of "things".
Perhaps it is my potential destiny to come here, and the Sun Tomb exists because of this moment, waiting for me for thousands of years.
……
The jade table of the Eight Immortals is pure white and clean, and the relief birds will be covered with fish and insects all over the tabletop, and the sculpture craftsmanship is exquisite, vivid!
Zhu Beichen put away the small diary, and as soon as he raised his head, his eyes fell on the couplet in front of the jade case.
The couplet is engraved in a yin way, symmetrical on the left and right, with nine characters each, and the font structure is simple, like some kind of creature twisting its body. Perhaps the key to leaving lies in this couplet, but unfortunately no one here can understand this ancient script that is beyond modern society.
"Fatty, you come down." Han Qingxin said sharply.
"I don't, why do you keep bullying me." The fat man refused with a stiff mouth, enjoying the Eight Immortals Table comfortably.
Han Qingxin flashed the pistol "click", and the bullet was loaded, "What do you say I have?" She smiled slightly.
The fat man touched a certain string in his memory, and reflexively bounced up quickly, hiding to the side and muttering.
"Nuan Yu?" Qijian stared at the jade Eight Immortals Table with a complicated expression, and gently stroked the table with his hand, the tentacles were warm, oily and shiny, first cool and then warm.
"Historical Records: The Biography of Dawan Lie": The Han Dynasty made the source of the poor river, and the source of the river came from Khotan, and its mountains were full of jade. I didn't expect Gu Loulan to be so strong. Qijian was a little surprised, his hand caressed the jade and refused to let go, and a strange brilliance appeared in his eyes.
Jade, gold, ancient porcelain treasures, very few people can resist the temptation of wealth, the three of them have not known the value of the collection in the temple of the underworld with simple furnishings, seven rooms said with a little excitement, "This is a whole piece of Kunlun jade carved jade ”
Zhu Beichen didn't have much concept of wealth, "Kunlun jade is Hetian jade," he responded lightly.
The fat man's eyes lit up when he heard it, "What do you mean I just slept on a table worth tens of billions?" No, you let go of your hands, and I'll lie down for a few more hours. ”
"Don't make a fuss." Qijian Zhengsedao, the greedy eyes of wealth disappeared from his eyes in an instant, and said with a wry smile: "If you knew that this jade table was infected with the blood of tens of thousands of living people, you would not have thought of lying down and sleeping on it." ”
"Ugh!" The fat man looked surprised.
"Scholars who study the history of Loulan have discovered a case of disappearance thousands of years ago, and tens of thousands of people disappeared in a small city overnight. The total population of the ancient kingdom of Loulan was about 700,000 during the period of total victory, and the disappearance of 10,000 people was definitely a major event at that time. "The secrets in the mouth of the seven rooms are one after another, as if they have personally experienced the disappearance case," Gu Loulan's secret method of raising jade is to use human blood to warm the jade, and after years of infection, the jade pieces are covered with blood, just like the blood vessels under the surface of human skin, growing and forming blood lines in the jade. ”
Listening to the strange talk of the seven rooms, the fat man was also skeptical and couldn't believe it at first.
So Qijian simply pointed directly at the tabletop and wiped the snow-white jade platform with a half-empty sleeve.
After a layer of water vapor, the dark red pipe lines are really like the capillaries of the human body, and the density is amazing!
"Spending tens of thousands of people to raise a piece of jade, the handwriting is grand enough, what is it used for?" Zhu Beichen asked.
Shichima smiled bitterly: "I only know one purpose for it, and I really don't know anything else." ”
"What's it for?" Zhu Beichen frowned.
"I see you're quite tired, you can sleep first, we'll tell you after we study it thoroughly."
Although Zhu Beichen was a little hesitant in his heart, he always felt that the seven ancient rooms were strange, and when he heard him say this, he seemed to be really sleepy, his eyelids drooped and he couldn't open them, and he fell asleep on the corner of the table.
Han Qingxin saw something and asked, "You hypnotized him, what do you want to do?" ”
Qima threw the sleeve of his right arm on his shoulder, and said solemnly: "Put a few hundred milliliters of blood on him, this jade table is actually a blood table, and it needs to be activated with blood." Since this is the underworld, this opening is the gate switch to enter the dormitory, and the blood pattern is equivalent to the gear layout in the keyhole, and this door can be opened by infecting the jade platform with blood. ”
"Oh." After that, Han Qingxin glanced at the chubby fat man with an allegorical face, and his meaningful expression was not sound.
The fat man was shocked, "What are you doing, bullying me with more flesh and less blood!" ”
Qijian raised his hand and pointed at the sleeping Zhu Beichen, "No, if anyone's blood can be used as a key medium, the setting of the machine is unreasonable." He clearly hinted that only Zhu Beichen's blood could be used.
"It's a long story." He knew that Han Qingxin must be suspicious again, so he directly blocked the other party's mouth with a sentence, "There is really not much time, there are still people in the ancient tomb, you should know." ”
As he spoke, he walked to the corner, picked up the sharp bronze sword, gently grabbed Zhu Beichen's wrist, and carefully cut a small opening.
Drop by drop, the blood fell on the jade table, first slowly condensed into a ball, and then accumulated into a blood altar before scattering and slicing around.
It was absorbed by the Kunlun Jade Platform at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the color of the blood lines under the jade surface changed from dark red to bright red, and the thin jade blood vessels moved vividly.
Simulating the process of blood transportation of living organisms, the blood released from Zhu Beichen's body is quietly transported under the Kunlun Jade Blood Table, reaching the deep layers of the machine.
Seven rooms hung a heart, solemnly paying attention to the changes in the jade platform, "It's also the first time I've encountered such a thing, this kind of structure is really amazing." ”
