Chapter 13: The Time of Extreme Gloom

How did the Mayans manage to accurately predict the occurrence of a solar eclipse without any modern scientific instruments? Nobody knows!

Sophie felt that the more she knew about the Mayan culture, the more she was surprised by the development of their astronomy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, the sacrifice officially continued, and it was the turn of Chief Jiaxi to appear in person.

I saw the bewildered Chief Jiaxi dancing to the courtyard in the center of the stone hall, she stepped on the stone slab twice, maybe she touched some mechanism, brushed the ground, and a well appeared in front of her, Sophie knew that this was the legendary golden well.

Of course, this gold well is not the gold well in the ancient tomb, but the Maya tribe specially used for sacrifice, its purpose is equivalent to a sacrificial pit, the difference is that the Maya people threw all the gold, silver, gems and other valuables in it, they will these precious and shining treasures dedicated to the gods, praying for the protection of the gods.

However, Sophie speculated that the Mayans threw precious treasures into hidden gold wells, in addition to praying for blessings, there were also anti-theft considerations.

The mechanism of the golden well was opened, and Chief Jiaxi stood by the mouth of the well, looking up to the sky and howling, as if to summon the gods in the sky, and at this time, the maids who had already been prepared stepped forward and threw the gold and silver utensils tied with streamers and bags of precious stones into the golden well.

The sound of falling water was endless, and there was really water in the golden well, which Sophie did not expect, she was surprised and wanted to rub forward to see a little more clearly, but she was strictly guarded by the maid beside her, and she had no choice but to stretch her neck to look forward.

By this time, however, the golden well had been closed, and all the Mayans who had participated in the sacrifice, led by Chief Jiaxi, chanted together in a language that Sufis did not understand.

Although Sophie couldn't understand this language, the rough tone seemed to contain ~ a mysterious power that was directly conveyed to the marrow of the person.

As the Mayans chanted, the light in the stone hall became dim and dim, presumably the solar eclipse in the sky was intensifying.

In the ancient East, a solar eclipse was called "Tengu Eclipse Sun", which was not only unlucky, but a very unlucky thing. This view is shared almost all over the world. However, in Maya, the occurrence of a solar eclipse is an excellent time to communicate with the world of the dead.

Sophie once read a prophecy about a solar eclipse on an ancient Mayan tablet: the sky was dark, the gods retreated, and the Grim Reaper of the undead quietly descended into the world. ……

The slate was a section of the unearthed epitaph, but due to its age and rampant tomb robbery, the entire slate had been broken, and the other piece with more words had long since disappeared.

That's all Sophie knows. But today is a once-in-a-lifetime time to finally get a glimpse of the Maya customs in this regard.

When the chanting of Chief Jiaxi and the Mayans came to an end, the stone hall was completely darkened.

When the chanting stopped, the stone hall suddenly fell silent, and an eerie silence permeated this man-made space.

Everyone didn't even dare to breathe, only the sound of beeping from the burning beast bones in the fire in the corners of the stone hall.

Sophie didn't understand what they were waiting for.

At this moment, a strange rumbling sound came from under the pyramid, and this sound became higher and higher, and finally it actually conveyed the surface, click, and almost at the same moment, two crystal coffins rose from the ground at the same time on both sides of the two sides where Chief Jiaxi was standing. There was a dried corpse lying inside.

The location of the two crystal coffins happened to be in the center of the mysterious stone carving surrounded by the sacrifice of the eighteen living people.

Sophie was dumbfounded, wondering what the hell was going on?

However, Chief Jiaxi immediately answered her question silently.

As soon as she waved her hand, eighteen Mayan warriors wearing death masks immediately stepped forward and stood in front of the eighteen living sacrifices, each of them holding a snow-bright ox-eared sharp knife in their hands.

It began, to slaughter the living, to begin the real sacrifice.

Sophie clenched her hands nervously, scared and excited. I don't dare to look at it, but I look forward to it in my heart, which is really contradictory.

Chief Jiaxi waved his hand decisively and without hesitation.

The eighteen executioners decisively stabbed the sharp knives in their hands into the heart of the sacrifice in front of them.

"Ahh Before Sophie could scream, she was violently covered by the frightened maid beside her.

At this time, everyone's attention was focused on the living sacrifice under the patio of the stone hall, the knife of the Mayan warrior had the function of bloodletting, and I saw that the handle of the knife was like a faucet, and the heart contracted strongly, pressing the blood out of the wound like a high-pressure pump, and the blood flowed out of the groove at the foot of the living sacrifice, and along the set route, it meandered towards the crystal coffin in the central area of the stone carving ~ gurgling.

Sophie found a strange place on the side, the two dried corpses in the crystal coffin, one seemed to be a male and the other was a woman, and the stone carving grooves on the ground were also men's blood and women's blood.

But what opened her eyes the most was that when the blood flowed to the crystal coffin, the blood easily penetrated into it, as if these two magical sarcophagi actually had the function of sucking blood.

When the blood penetrated into the crystal coffin, it did not stop, but continued to flow to the dried corpse in the coffin.

The most incredible thing happened, the dried corpse that had been dead for I don't know how many years was in the blood water on the body, and the skin that was rougher than the old bark actually immediately sucked blood crazily, and when the whole body of the dried corpse was covered with Yin ~ red blood water, the dried corpse in the crystal coffin actually twitched violently ~ twitched, they, they actually came to life!

Sophie almost bit her tongue in horror, and saw the dried corpse in the crystal coffin twitch violently~twitching, and suddenly howled in pain on her back, and the terrible scream actually penetrated the thick crystal coffin, piercing people's eardrums, which was more terrible than the torment of ghosts in hell.

At this time, the maid beside Sophie could no longer take care of Sophie, and she covered her ears tightly, trembling with fear.

At this time, Sophie finally understood what Chief Jiaxi was doing, they actually used the extreme yin time of today's solar eclipse to communicate with the underworld and actually wanted to resurrect the dead. It's purely against the sky, and they can do it.

However, in addition to being shocked at this time, Sophie was more curious about who these two people were that Chief Jiaxi wanted to resurrect, and what did Chief Jiaxi want to get from these two people who had been dead for many years?

I believe it won't be long before she knows.

When the howl of the dried corpses in the crystal coffin passed, their originally dried skin and flesh actually regenerated miraculously and quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they could already vaguely distinguish their appearance before death.

But at this time, Sophie was stunned beyond measure, her eyes widened, and she looked at the two dead people who were about to be resurrected in the crystal coffin, and she felt that she was going crazy, because she knew those two people, why did the appearance of those men and women look so much like her grandfather and grandmother who had been missing for many years!

What's going on? Am I in a nightmare?
