Chapter 47: Rebirth
Walking out of the Temple of Flames, there is a long, narrow corridor surrounded by murals, which probably talk about the farming life and use of flames by some ancient people, and then how they fought off foreign beasts and foreign tribes. Fan Li had been to this place, so he didn't look at the murals in detail, and he found that Xie Ling and Wu Meiyan were basically not interested in the surrounding scenes, Wu Meiyan occasionally glanced at them, and Xie Ling, there didn't seem to be these murals in her field of vision. Fan Li was very strange, because his intuition told him that Xie Ling seemed to have been to this place before and was familiar with everything here, but since she was so familiar, why did she let herself or Rose lead the way?
In the direction Rose pointed, they soon came to a temple that, unlike the ones they had seen before, had no guard statues or the strange stone gates of the pylorus, but a simple, ordinary entrance.
Walking in, there was indeed a sarcophagus inside, behind which sat the giant skeleton corpse that Rose said, and there were many charred corpses lying around. Fan Li leaned over and examined these corpses, they were really all charred corpses, the same as what he saw in the Lost City, it seems that this heart slave has kidnapped a lot of innocent people, but what is he doing with these corpses?
Hearing only a grinding sound from above, Xie Ling pushed open the sarcophagus without hesitation, but it was empty. Xie Ling carefully studied the carvings behind the sarcophagus by the light of the flashlight, and fell into deep thought. Fan Li and Jia Lan walked up to the giant skeleton corpse.
This is supposed to be the corpse of a general, the lines on the armor have been carefully carved, and many places have pursued beauty and neglected practicality, this should be a set of decorative armor. But this person's size is also too big, could it be that there were humans more than two and a half meters tall in ancient times? It's impossible, a human spine can't support such a body, and now it can grow up to two meters tall unless it's a specially trained athlete in the NBA. Or maybe this is not a human at all, it is a different kind of object like the skeleton just now, just like Xie Ling said of the vehicle.
Fan Li wanted to reach out and touch it, but Wu Meiyan behind him sizzled.
"Don't move." Wu Meiyan said sharply.
"If the heart slave is not here, then where will he be? Could it be that there are other vehicles in this tomb that obsesses him? Xie Ling muttered quietly.
"By the way, Xie Ling, what do you mean by vehicle?" Fan asked Li.
"It's the carrier of the soul, for us it's the body, for an old goblin like the heart slave, his soul can be attached to something under certain conditions, and then that object is the meaning of the vehicle." Xie Ling explained.
"So this heart slave...... What kind of product is it? Kai Crossbow asked.
Later, he found that witchcraft could no longer satisfy his curiosity, so he began to study psychic spells, studying the world after death and the relationship between the soul and the carrier. At that time, it was a forbidden technique, so this guy studied privately under the guise of guarding the tomb, and the result really made him study the results, and it became what it is today. ”
"I see, no wonder this guy can change the carrier, it turns out that he was originally a wizard." Kai Ballet sighed.
"What people!" Wu Meiyan suddenly shouted, pulled out her waist knife and chased after her, everyone didn't have time to react, she had already disappeared at the entrance, Fan Li and Jialan hurriedly followed, and when they ran out of the entrance, they found that there was no shadow of Wu Meiyan.
"Could it be a hollow valley?" Hu Pengyue said to Rose.
"I don't know, the hollow valley is under control, just like you did before."
"Everyone, be careful." Xie Ling warned loudly.
"It's weird, she's so fast." Jia Lan whispered as she walked back to the temple, but Fan Li remained silent. Before, he was thinking about Xie Ling's words, but then he noticed a noisy voice, and he listened carefully to those noisy sounds, as if someone was whispering, speaking a language he didn't understand, like a monk chanting scriptures.
"Did you hear anything?" Fan Li looked up and asked, and everyone shook their heads.
"Won't it be another damn skeleton?" Jialan understood what Fan Li meant, and vigilantly took out her bow and arrows, but Fan Li shook his head.
"It's not the same as before." Fan Li listened carefully to the voice. The sound of the war horse is like metal rubbing, and the sound of the skeleton is like a million rats biting wood, creaking, and the sound heard at this time is a kind of whispering, there is no fixed frequency, each word is different, I really want someone to chant the scriptures, and most importantly, this voice seems to float from afar, until ...... Somewhere.
Fan Li followed the direction of the sound and looked over, and at a glance he saw the giant skeleton corpse behind Kai Crossbow, this sound was definitely not from Kai Crossbow, so there was only one result.
"Kai crossbow! Be careful! Before Fan Li's words fell, the skeleton behind him suddenly raised his hands and grabbed his back, at this time Xie Ling crashed into the body of the crossbow, held the skeleton's hands and fought with him, the skeleton touched Xie Ling's hand and suddenly paused, and then threw Xie Ling aside, one hand hit in the direction of the wall, and actually pulled out an axe from the wall.
This guy wielded the axe, and the long axe turned in the air, stabbing straight at Xie Ling, Xie Ling flashed sideways, and the axe pierced into the sarcophagus next to him, easily piercing the sarcophagus, just like piercing foam.
Jialan's arrows were on the string, and the two arrows went straight to the skeleton's face, and with two clicks, the sharp arrow pierced the skull, but it didn't react, still trying to poke a big hole in Xie Ling's body.
The use of the flamethrower in such a space was nothing more than wanting to burn them to death along with Fan Li, but carrying it all the time added a lot of burden to himself, Xie Ling simply didn't do anything, and after flashing a slash, he quickly removed the flamethrower and kicked it aside.
"Uncle, you want to kill my goddess!" Kai crossbow seized the opportunity to stare at the sarcophagus and pounce on the skeleton's back, tightly strangling the skeleton's neck, but he was thrown by him and slammed against the wall.
"Xie Ling, go on!" Fan Li gathered the blue flames into a spear, flicked it in the air, and threw the spear at Xie Ling, Xie Ling dodged the attack with a somersault, and caught the spear, but the moment the spear was held in her hand, it disappeared as if it melted.
"Are you trying to kill me?" At this time, the skeleton brandished the axe and slashed over, just now in order to catch the gun, it has been forced to a dead end, but the hard top will definitely be broken by the waist, Xie Ling glared at the wall behind him, the whole person flashed the sharpness of the tip of the axe, grabbed the handle of the axe, and punched at the skeleton's chest.
Kai Crossbow and Rose were standing right behind the skeleton, shattered by some broken bones and scum that Xie Ling had beaten out.
"Phew! What the hell! Rose spat out the scum from her mouth, not seeing that the skeleton had shifted its target and slashed in her direction, and the crossbow threw her to the ground, and the long slash slashed across the top of the crossbow's head, making a small scar on the wall where they had just stood.
Xie Ling seized this opportunity and threw two punches at the skeleton's waist, directly piercing the armor on his waist, and the skeleton was unbalanced by her, and fell to the side, one hand kept shaking the long yue, so frightened that Fan Li and they could only lie on the ground temporarily.
Xie Ling took this opportunity to hug the skeleton's lower body, push it hard in the direction of the fall, and then yelled at Hu Pengyue, who was watching the play.
"Hurry up! Hand on! ”
Hu Pengyue seemed to understand what Xie Ling meant, and at the moment when the skeleton fell, she threw herself on the upper body of the skeleton, clasped her hands under the skeleton's armpits, and the two grabbed the skeleton's body and dragged it in opposite directions, only to hear a piercing roar, the skeleton was torn in two by Xie Ling and Hu Pengyue, and suddenly spread on the ground like a dead man.
"You know what I mean, it looks like we're really going to have a!" Xie Ling threw away the lower half of the skeleton, walked up to Hu Pengyue and patted her on the shoulder, Hu Pengyue didn't speak, just smiled happily.
Seeing that this skeleton was lifeless, Fan Li also breathed a sigh of relief, he stood up and walked towards the lower half of the skeleton, wanting to see if there was anything strange about the parts on this skeleton, but the whisper just now sounded in his ears, he immediately realized the danger, and shouted in the direction of Xie Ling and Hu Pengyue.
"Be careful!"
Xie Ling was a little puzzled by his shout, and he was still figuring out the meaning of Fan Li's words, only to hear a scream behind him, Hu Pengyue blocked behind Xie Ling, and blocked the skeleton's axe with his stomach.
"Hu Pengyue!" The cry of the rose came, waking Xie Ling up from her confusion, and she immediately grabbed the handle of the skull to prevent the skeleton from continuing to pierce, but Hu Pengyue in front of her could no longer suppress the pain, and the tip of the stalk was tearing her wound, making her can't help but scream. Subsequently, the lower body of the skeleton was glued together with the upper body, and the strength of the complete skeleton increased several times because of the focus point of the lower body, pushing Xie Ling and Hu Pengyue towards the direction of the wall. At this moment, Fan Li's blue spear, Jialan's sharp arrow, and Kai's crossbow fist smashed into the skeleton's body like a storm, but this guy didn't tremble at all, but opened his jaw exaggeratedly, as if he was laughing at Xie Ling.
"I can't kill you, Gemini, but I can kill your friend! Moreover, you can't save her! Hahahaha! It uttered a deafening laugh, as if fifty old men with hoarse voices were speaking at the same time.
Hearing the skeleton's taunt, Xie Ling couldn't hold it anymore, Fan Li saw the bright red flames spraying out of her eyes, and the hand holding the handle of the axle actually melted the steel, and the skeleton was frightened to take a step back when he saw Xie Ling's appearance, and wanted to turn around and leave, but with a miserable scream, it melted in front of everyone's eyes.
"Hu Pengyue!" Rose didn't care about what spell Xie Ling used just now, she limped to her side, Xie Ling lay her flat on the ground, blood kept gushing out of the wound, the strength of the skeleton was not small, if it wasn't for Xie Ling's timely reaction and grabbing the handle, I'm afraid Hu Pengyue would have been pierced in half. Now, blood continued to gush out of the terrifying wounds, and Hu Pengyue's mouth was also a stream of blood, and Fan Li seemed to have seen death beckoning to her.
"You can't die! The sheriff hasn't come yet, she won't allow you to die! Rose shook Hu Pengyue's body frantically, but was pushed to the ground by Xie Ling's arm.
"Thank you for blocking the fatal blow for me, and as a thank you, I will do everything in my power to pull you back from the realm of death." Xie Ling motioned for everyone to step back, her hands gradually turned red, she pushed away Hu Pengyue's hand covering the wound, and put her hands on the wound, Hu Pengyue immediately let out a cry of pain.
"Bear with me, my friend, there is a price to be paid for being reborn, you will be the phoenix that is reborn from the fire, and you will become stronger under the burning fire." Xie Ling said to Hu Pengyue as if no one was around, but Hu Pengyue, who was almost fainting in pain, didn't listen to her words at all, everyone was so frightened by Xie Ling in front of them that they couldn't help but take a few steps back, Fan Li now understood, he glanced at the flamethrower, he had never figured out the principle of the flamethrower before, but now he understood that the flamethrower's flame was not sprayed from the body of the gun, but the flame generated by Xie Ling himself, such a flame was a hundred times more terrifying than the flames of Xinnu.
