306. They can no longer find the second piece
"But in the process, the Mu people paid a terrible price."
"Because the patriarch and the clansmen who have become snake people are originally some of the most powerful people in the clan, and after becoming snake people, they are even more fierce, and they are difficult to deal with."
"Last ......"
When Lu Qing said this, he suddenly paused, looked at the content behind him, and sighed.
Yue Qingyi was nervous when she listened, and when she saw her stop, she reached out and pulled the corner of her clothes, and said, "What happened in the end?" Say it. ”
Lu Qing looked at the stone tablet and frowned, and said, "In the end, the people of the Mu clan still brought people back. It wasn't because they had figured out a way to subdue it, but that the patriarch, and the person who had brought back the snake's head, seemed to still have their sanity and helped the people of the Mu clan. ”
"Because the snake people were too dangerous, they were not brought back to the Mu family, but were placed in another place to seal the secrets of the clan, and the snake head was also brought over. When the people of the Mu family got the news, they immediately went with stones to find out why those people had become like this. But just as they had studied stones, they had never been able to figure it out, and they had made no progress. ”
As he spoke, Lu Qing took another step to the side, almost moving to the edge of the side of the stele.
Lu Qing groped for the ancient characters on it, and when he saw the content behind it, his expression sank.
She said: "In the process of research, instead of finding the answer, there was another accident. What is recorded above is that some of the people who participated in the research at that time also became snake people. The Mu family even witnessed how the clansmen suddenly went crazy and harmed themselves. They did not expect it, and the losses were even more severe. ”
Yue Qingyi wondered, "Won't they stop it?" ”
Lu Qing shook his head: "It's not that you can't stop it, but you can't stop it." The Mu family tried many methods at that time, but they all found nothing. Evil befell those who were with them. After a long time, the Mu clan discovered the rule, that is, as long as anyone who has come into contact with the snake head, they will be affected by it, go crazy inexplicably, and then self-harm and make themselves snake people. ”
Yue Qingyi hissed, "This is what they predicted from the stone, the disaster that the snake head will bring?" ”
Lu Qing nodded.
"And after that?" Yue Qingyi asked.
Lu Qingdao: "After realizing this, and never finding a way to stop it, the high-level members of the Mu clan at that time decided to destroy the snake head after discussion. And those who have been affected, all of them have been killed. It's just that the forging material of the snake's head seems to be very special, and they can't smash it, burn it, or destroy it, so they have to seal it underground. In order to prevent future troubles, the Mu family also gave up those who were sent to seal up, forbidding them to return to the Mu family after sealing and committing suicide on the spot. ”
After saying this, Lu Qing's gaze moved to the last few lines of the stone tablet.
The whole thing is nearing its end.
Yue Qingyi pursed his lips and said, "Then it seems that the people of the Mu family are still quite ruthless." Even if the clansmen are intact, as long as they have come into contact with the snake head and are sent to seal the snake head, they will give up. What is this? ”
When the words fell, Yue Qingyi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said in surprise: "No, since people who have come into contact with the snake head will go crazy, why do the original clansmen and the people who brought back the snake head still retain their sanity?" And don't they still have that broken stone? When something so big happened, why didn't they ask the stone what to do? ”
"Asked."
Lu Qingqu pointed to the last content of the stele and said, "Here." ”
"The losses of the Mu clan at that time were too heavy, and the people of the inner clan were almost half lost. I'm just for a group like the Mu family, the inner clan should be. Their core bond plays a very important role, and their prestige in the hearts of foreigners is also very important. It was the inner tribesmen who suppressed the news and did not let the outsiders know. ”
Soon after, they made another prediction to the stone, wondering what was going on. The details are unknown, but in the end, they discovered a shocking secret. It's about stones. ”
Lu Qing got up and turned to look at the stone veins not far away, his eyes were cold and solemn.
She said in a deep voice, "That is, the reason why the original patriarch and the person who brought back the snake's head still remained sane was because they had inadvertently come into contact with that stone. The stone seems to be something that can restrain the great influence of the serpent's head. ”
Yue Qingyi looked at her line of sight, reacted for a few seconds, and said in surprise: "That stone, it won't have anything to do with the stone veins over there, right?" ”
"Yes."
Lu Qing nodded heavily.
"It took a long time for the Mu people to verify the information they had obtained, and finally determined that only those who had come into contact with the stone would not be affected by the snake's head and would not go berserk. In addition, it will also retain the 'transformation' of the body brought by the snake head, that is, the limit of physical fitness will rise, and it can withstand what ordinary people can't bear, and it will become more powerful than ordinary people. ”
In order to get more accurate data, the Muhammad people dug up the snake's head again and conducted many experiments with the stone. But the stone was of limited use, and they didn't want to lose the predictive effect of the stone, so they began to search for something like the stone on a large scale across the country. ”
"Ah, this ......," said Yue Qingyi, "so they sent all the foreigners out to look for it, and this is one of the strongholds they found in the first place?" ”
"Yes, there is more than one such stronghold. Elsewhere, there are many more. ”
"However, we didn't find any predictive effect on the stone vein along the way."
Yue Qingyi pointed to the torch in his hand, "It's quite capable of burning, and it hasn't been extinguished until now." ”
Lu Qing crossed his arms and looked at the stone veins in the distance, and said, "This is what they found out later." In order to find another identical stone, the members of the Mu clan returned to the original treacherous tomb, but found nothing. They went to many other tombs, but found nothing as well. ”
It was much later that they were sure that they would never find a second stone with the same purpose. However, if you find a lot of stone veins, such as the one in front of you, you can resist the side effects of the snake's head. ”
However, they found that the vein was different from the stone, and that its effect was only temporary. After a period of time, people who have come into contact with the stone veins will gradually die, but not completely dead, and will be 'alive' to another extent, like walking corpses. This only delayed the death brought by the serpent's head. Years later, they will still be completely dead. And this process is extremely painful. ”
Yue Qingyi was stunned for a moment and said, "The female member of the expedition team is in such a state. Don't look like she's still alive, but she's close to real death, isn't she? ”
"Hmm."
Lu Qing responded.
