"You're not here to see these corpses, are you?" I asked Jiang Li.

This sentence seemed to remind her, Jiang Li stood up and patted her buttocks, waved her little hand and said, "Keep going." ”

Do you want to go? As soon as I heard her say this, I suddenly felt that my words were a little redundant, but my doubts were not resolved yet, and it was not time to rest. I've heard too much history in Jiang Li's mouth, and the only thing that can prove what she said now is to figure out what this place is about.

Seeing the sacrificial procession of the primitive tribe before, Jiang Li has been chasing, he should be going to participate in some kind of sacrificial ceremony, so who is the sacrifice? It's definitely not a sacrifice to Chiyou, that is, a sacrifice to the Yellow Emperor, and it's unlikely, what can Jiang Li get by sacrificing the Yellow Emperor? I really can't connect Huaxia's ancestors with the little girl in front of me. She knows this place so well, what is her intention to come here alone at such a young age? I can't guess anyway. Why don't you just go down and see what tricks she's playing.

It may be because I got used to walking too much, and I didn't feel tired when I walked down, but the injuries on my body were still faintly painful, and I didn't see a step far away.

This step is not high, only ten centimeters, and if you study carefully, it is actually a large disk, with a large diameter, and it is fifty meters by visual inspection. The disc is densely carved with various patterns, the carvings are very rough, it looks like a very ancient carving, the lines are very simple, you can see the carvings on it at a glance, it is all kinds of monsters, there are no human characteristics, it should be a mutant of animals, there is only one animal on it that I know, that is the evil eye beast, it seems that the evil eye beast is also a member of the ancient divine beast.

In the center of the disc was a spear, the shaft of which seemed to be the bone of some kind of animal, and the bone of this length was eighty percent polished from ivory. The spearhead of the spear was made of that blue ore, and since most of it was already inserted into the ground, I could not judge the appearance, only the material.

I asked Jiang Li, "What is this cauldron lid for?" ”

Jiang Li said: "Be quiet, this is the gate of hell." There are demons down there, don't let them hear it. ”

I was amused by this little girl's trickery, and said to her, "Don't you be addicted to storytelling, and you're going to hell, you let the evil ghosts come out, and see if the evil ghosts are afraid of the wicked?" ”

Jiang Li glanced at me and said, "You still don't believe me?" I don't believe in pulling it down, and I don't pay the tuition fee, which is quite hypocritical. ”

As soon as the words fell, the ground under our feet trembled, and my legs went limp, and I held the ground with one hand, thinking that this time it wouldn't be, and she said it seriously, right?

Jiang Li laughed at my behavior again, looked at me with contempt and said, "Are you scared now?" If you dare to speak disrespectfully, you will come out with two to pull you down. ”

The fat brother walked in front of the spear, reached out to pull out the spear, and muttered: "My grandson finally has a weapon to take advantage of." ”

Jiang Li saw it, and rushed directly to the fat brother at the speed of 100 meters, pulled away his hand that drew his spear, and shouted: "You don't want to die?" This is to suppress evil spirits. ”

The fat brother said with a hippie smile: "What nonsense, what you said before is still a bit true, you can also make up this suppression of evil ghosts?" ”

Jiang Li was really angry this time, and said with a cold face: "If you like to pull it out, I have a beast flute, he has a demon blade, it should be no problem to protect yourself, no one cares about you if you find death, and you are not my child." ”

As soon as I heard it, this is the fat brother's words to teach Jiang Li, how did she use it again? But this sentence is like a spell, it really works, and the fat brother stopped his behavior as soon as he heard it, and continued to move forward without saying a word.

I asked Jiang Li: "How come there is a gate of hell here, where is the evil ghost from, even if there is a ghost gate, shouldn't it be in Xudu?" ”

Jiang Li coughed and said, "I don't have to lie to you, there is an army of Chiyou below, if you want to deter so many strange beasts, can you tie them all to the pillar?" Back then, the Yellow Emperor forced the Chiyou army here, and they all drove them down the big pit, and the spear inserted in the middle was the Yellow Emperor's own weapon. The back of this lid also has a special pattern, which is similar to the talisman on your knife, which can play a role in magnifying the effect, so it can trap countless monsters sleeping underneath, and after so many years, it has long become a demon, maybe even more ferocious than a demon. ”

When I heard her say this, I understood, if what she said before was true, in fact, I already believed that most of it was true, then the army of Chiyou down here, isn't it more evil than evil ghosts? It's simply the ancestor of evil spirits. At the thought of this, my steps immediately became heavy, as if there were countless thorns on the soles of my feet, which pierced my feet and numbled for a while, and then spread all over my body.

The fat brother didn't speak, he walked in front alone, and Jiang Li and I followed not far behind.

The stone wall could already be seen in the distance, it should be the edge of this pit, and before you knew it, we had crossed the entire sinkhole.

After walking through the lid of the hell well, I saw an offering table, which was empty and there were no sacrifices, but the work of this offering table was very good. In the middle is a rectangular stone platform, one meter five wide and two meters long. On both sides are the front half of the two stone beasts, which are connected to the stone platform, and the two front legs of each stone beast become the table legs of this offering table. The head of the stone beast is a bit like a dragon's head, but it is flatter than the dragon's head, and it is also a bit like a human face, but there is no uglier human face than this. There are no eyes on the animal's head, only a flat nose and a large mouth, and the eyes are carved into the front of the armpits, where the forelimbs meet the body. Each of the four claws has five fingers, which are covered by long nails.

The fat brother patted the stone beast and said, "What kind of monster is this, its eyes have fallen into its armpits." ”

Jiang Li said: "This is called roe deer (páo) owl (xiāo), "Classic of Mountains and Seas - Classic of the North Mountain" said: There is a beast in the mountain of Hook Wu, its shape is like a sheep's body and human face, its eyes are in the armpits, tiger teeth and human claws, its sound is like a baby, the name is roe deer owl, it is a cannibal. In "Zuo Chuan", it is called 饕 (tāo) 餮 (tiè). ”

When the fat brother heard this, he suddenly realized: "You said gluttony, I don't know, what kind of roe deer owl, how do I know?" After complaining, he asked, "There is not even a suckling pig or lamb on the offering table, has it not been sacrificed yet?" ”

Jiang Li said: "I'm also coming back, I don't know, if the sacrifice is over, I won't be able to touch my sister." ”

But there is one thing she doesn't know, this place is like her back garden, and no one believes her if she hasn't been there. However, judging from Jiang Li's full preparation, if she didn't know about the sacrifice, then she definitely didn't come to sacrifice.

Beyond the offering table, about ten meters, seven bronze pillars appeared, these pillars were no different from the pillars that bound the corpses before, except that there were no corpses tied on them. The arrangement of these seven pillars is very strange, to put it bluntly, it is a bit messy, the three on the left and the four on the right are not in the same straight line, the three on the left are one in front and two behind, and the two in the front and two back on the right, and the columns in the front row and the back row are not in the same row.

Although I can understand that this may be a special way of arrangement, presumably related to the sacrificial activities, but I can't find a pattern of arrangement, either round, square, or a row, as long as it is placed in a shape that has a mathematical pattern to follow, I should be able to see that there are only seven pillars after all.

Seeing that I was a little confused, I went to Jiang Li for help: "What kind of place is this?" Do these pillars do anything? ”

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Of course it's useful, why are you standing here if it's useless?" ”

The fat brother said: "I am dizzy when you two discuss all the way, what's the use of saying it quickly, if you have any questions, hurry up and ask, let's not waste time and continue to move forward." ”

Jiang Li happily said to the fat brother: "No need to go, I just want to do things here." ”
