Chapter 157: Confusion
The quaint and exquisite staircase, carved with simple moire patterns and covered with a thin layer of yellow sand, shows the history that has not changed for thousands of years. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's like a dusty book, in which the pen and ink do not change in the slightest, waiting for someone to arrive, gently brush away the dust, open the pages, and read the story of the past.
The staircase stretches down at a soft angle, neither abrupt nor slow, like the feeling of a stream flowing. In the darkness, it makes people feel a little comfortable, not too depressing.
There was silence all around, as if it were really a newly discovered ruin, and no one had ever visited.
In fact, from the discovery of Wang Cheng to the present coming to this place, Wang Shi and they don't seem to have encountered any obstacles. Those complicated forces, the all-pervasive killers, have never shown their faces. The only thing I encountered was the sick old man, but it was so easy that people gave up in disbelief.
It can be said that this is all the credit of Lu Xiangzi, because of his familiarity with the royal city, he went directly to the palace, and persuaded the old man a little strangely, and everyone came here.
However, the strangeness of this has to make people suspicious.
Looking at the bottomless staircase, Wang Shi could feel the prosperity and prosperity of the Roy tribe, as well as the tranquility and serenity, and could not feel the tragedy and tragedy of the fall.
Originally, this kind of place was the most central place of the palace, and no matter what force wanted to destroy the Roy clan, it would definitely be an earth-shattering battle, and it should have left endless murderous aura. However, there is no trace of a battle here, and there is no residual blood, which is really a bit weird.
Lu Xiangzi exhaled softly, glanced at everyone, and said, "Feitian is a powerful illusion, no one can avoid it, and it is possible to sink forever, you don't necessarily have to go down." ”
The fact that such a thing as flying was not destroyed in the catastrophe is enough to prove its danger. Even if it was the former Roy tribe, few people in the historical records were able to pass through the real flight.
To get the real flying sky and get the stored Luo Xing, with the help of Wang Shi, Lu Xiangzi's grasp is only one percent. There is no need to bring so many people in, it is not possible to lose their lives in vain.
Wang Shi said: "I need to go down and take a look, but I am not absolutely sure of the illusion in this." I once entered the Flying Illusion, and it was so strong that I could barely get out of it. ”
"It's beyond imagination, even if it's me, it's only less than a hundred percent sure that I'll survive. ”
Song Sheng and Youhua didn't feel the meaning of deception, not to mention that the strange situation in front of them was enough to explain everything, they both believed what Wang Shi said to Lu Xiangzi.
After thinking about it for a while, Song Sheng made up his mind and decided to visit the so-called "Feitian" together.
As for Youhua, there is no reason to stay away from Wang Shi, so he will also follow.
Wang Shi glanced at Ning Yi, with a slight hesitation in his eyes, but finally decided to take her with him. Ning Yi, on the other hand, will not wait no matter what, she always has to be with Wang Shi to be at ease.
As soon as they made a slight eye contact, everyone decided to go underground together.
......
Rays of light decorated with dust descend from the previous staircase and gradually illuminate the next staircase, and as the light moves, the surrounding murals begin to reveal their true appearance.
The light cast by the moonstone in his hand moved at an even speed, and the slight sound of footsteps echoed through the passage. Everyone followed the stairs and approached the so-called flying sky step by step.
The two walls of the staircase are depicted with intricate patterns, the same as those found in the main hall, but the content is very different. The main hall depicts many gods, but here it depicts the lives of ordinary people.
Wang Shi tried not to let go of every detail, and imprinted everything in his mind.
If you want to understand a nation, you must understand it from all aspects of life, and every detail of life can reflect the character of the nation.
The contact with Lu Xiangzi has not been too long, and the information from his mouth is not too much, Wang Shi wants to help him better, and he also needs to know the Roy clan as much as possible.
Fishing and farming, sacrificial celebrations, newlyweds and funerals...... Reading all the murals is like walking through a person's life. However, such an all-encompassing mural only lacks records of spiritual practice.
Could it be that the part of the practice is in the main hall in the front, and the part of life is recorded here? Shouldn't we live in the front and practice in the back? What is the purpose of this?
Wang Shi didn't have much thought about this, and could only set aside part of his mind to visit these murals.
From the moment he entered the stairs, Wang Shi smelled a faint danger. This dangerous aura was very light, as light as the fragrance of flowers after the rain, so faint that Wang Shi couldn't be sure if he had an illusion.
Holding Ning Yi's hand tightly, Wang Shi's right hand touched the demon knife and was ready to meet the sudden danger at any time. Maybe he was really careful, and the danger never appeared.
Although there were five people, there were no words, only the faint sound of footsteps echoing under the stairs.
In a trance, Wang Shi seemed to have discovered something, his brows furrowed slightly, and he moved closer to the wall.
It seems like...... The faces on the mural have not changed since the beginning to the present? All the people are the same face? If so, what does this mean?
However, when Wang Shi began to carefully compare the two of them, he found that the faces of the two of them were completely different, and there was not even a trace of similarity.
Slightly disbelieving, Wang Shi glanced back again, and as far as his eyes could reach, he didn't see any similar faces. Although he had doubts in his heart, Wang Shi still turned his head.
Suddenly, Wang Shi turned his head again!
His eyes were slightly condensed, and he searched carefully towards the ground, not sparing a single speck of dust, but he did not find anything abnormal.
Before, it seemed that I only saw the footprints of four people, but now I see them, why are they the footprints of five people? Could it be that I am really dazzled?
His brows furrowed slightly, Wang Shi kept these strange things in his heart and did not say anything.
Ning Yi kept following behind Wang Shi and didn't speak, just followed silently.
The staircase seems to stretch infinitely, never broken, no end, only the unbroken frescoes, showing that this place has never been repeated. Fortunately, everyone was patient, and there was no impatience.
The footsteps were very light, light enough to distinguish everyone, but there seemed to be only four voices here, and there was a fifth footstep faintly, sometimes vague and sometimes clear, and it was impossible to distinguish the real from the fake.
After a long time, Wang Shi's slightly furrowed brows stretched out and said, "Lu Xiangzi, how long will it take to go?"
"I don't know, I haven't been to this real flying sky. It may be soon, it may be a long time, but according to the pattern on the mural, the end of a person's life should be the end of the passage, and we will reach the real sky. ”
Wang Shi continued to ask, "Do you know what the Ghost Army is all about?"
"Those are the Roy people of the past, who will not disperse after death, swore to defend this land to the death, and are still defending this place today. It's just that time has passed so long, and they have become skeletons. ”
"Then why haven't we encountered the Ghost Army here?"
"In every city, there is a flying stone statue guarded by the town, which contains the treasures of the Roy clan, which used to be used as the last resort of the city guarded. These ghost armies are somewhat sensitive to this, knowing that the flying stone statue is still there, and the city is still there, so they will not invade. ”
Wang Shi seemed to nod a little clearly, and began to digest what Lu Xiangzi said word by word.
If you simply say that the time Wang Shi has entered the desert is not too long, but this does not prevent him from exploring the secrets in the desert. From the moment he entered the desert, he began to contact the secrets of the Roy clan, and Wang Shi got not too little information, which means that he has no less inferences about secrets.
Before talking to Lu Xiangzi, Wang Shi deduced the matter of the ghost army, which coincided with what Lu Xiangzi said. But Wang Shi didn't have the slightest excitement, only deep doubts.
"Ning Yi, what do you want for dinner?"
Ning Yi thought for a moment, and then said: "Snowflake beef tenderloin, vegetarian lily, green lotus silver, stacked thousand leaves." ”
Wang Shi nodded slightly, as if he had expected it a long time ago, and continued to ask, "Do you want to eat some silk yam?"
With his eyes rolling, Ning Yi said, "Don't eat it." ”
Seriously savoring every sentence of this, scrutinizing the details along the way, Wang Shi's brows couldn't help but furrow slightly.
The faces are exactly the same, but there are footprints of four people in five people, and the conversation is completely expected...... It seems to be weird, but it seems to be all an illusion, and it can be explained well.
Faintly, there seems to be something wrong, and all the doubts can be connected, but Wang Shi still can't find this line, or he is a little afraid to find it.
But, excluding all the impossibilities, the rest is unbelievable and the real truth.
Suddenly, Wang Shi stopped, put his hand on the mural, and began to grope along the lines of each figure, as if he could touch their cheeks.
Looking at the strange and familiar faces, a smile rose on the corner of Wang Shi's mouth, which was considered to confirm his inference. Then he glanced behind him again, and on the thin layer of dust, there were five lines of footprints, indicating that there were five people here, and there was nothing wrong.
At this time, everyone also stopped, thinking that Wang Shi had discovered something, and Lu Xiangzi asked, "Did you find anything?"
Wang Shi couldn't help laughing and said, "Indeed, there is a big discovery. ”
