Chapter 385: "The Game of the Ancestral Gods" The Past of the Sacred Mountain
The deep abyss cliffs retreated sharply in all directions, and the light and shadow of the lighting props swayed slightly, as if trying to freeze the moment of each breakthrough.
The map image left by his father spread out in Jiang Qian's mind, and while comparing the map, he was also thinking about the confusing relationship between his father Jiang Xuesong and the sacred mountain.
Could the father be the legendary "dragon god"?
The ancestral god said through the mouth of the water dragon that the dragon god is also known as "Shuo in the clouds", does he have anything to do with the "Brother Yun" in the Shajin causal mirror? Is it just a coincidence?
If it's a coincidence, what about the geological map that is highly consistent with the realm of Mount Kinabalu?
Looking back at the memories of my father before his death 12 years ago, my father, who was a geologist, often traveled away from home to study the untouched land in the mountains and forests, sometimes even for months without a trace.
In the causal mirror, Yuan Xi's description of Brother Yun's accidental distress, rescue, amnesia, and a series of actions to leave after recovering his memory seems to match his father Jiang Xuesong's travel habits.
That "Brother Yun"'s repeated exploration of the mountain during the recovery of his memory was just enough to support the completion of the geological map, and there would be such a coincidence in the world?
Of course, there are doubts in this.
For example, in addition to the map near Linyuan Village, when was the causal mirror distribution of other saints and holy envoys completed?
Since this realm of the Divine Mountain is an extraterrestrial realm similar to an evolutionary copy, then how could my father know everything here so clearly, it is like opening the eyes of the sky!
How deep is the relationship between my father and the Kinabalu organization?
"Ahead!"
Jiang Qian's thoughts were pulled back by Sha Jin's reminder, and at the same time, the vision in front of him quickly expanded!
As the beetle snake's flight speed plummeted, the four finally saw what they were seeing:
They have arrived in a huge palace hidden deep in the mountains!
The palace covers an area of about 100 acres, and in its center is a huge enclosed palace with a dome and high walls, which can be seen to be golden in color under the lighting of props, which is particularly similar to the "glow gold" used in the official western armband.
Looking down, the dome and walls of this enclosed palace are carved with elaborate frescoes, mostly endemic to the West and mystical symbols.
"Is this the place where the legendary Holy Feast is located......" The elegy is immersed in the wonders at the bottom of the mountain, briefly forgetting the impending crisis.
The natural landscape and palace architecture here are truly stunning, and they are not something that ordinary skilled craftsmen can create, especially when it comes to creating such a wonderful place under the mountains.
According to Jiang Qian's original plan according to Tu Suoji, when he arrived at the center of the map, not only could he not reach the location of the Holy Banquet, but the distance was even farther! Unless he has the ability to dig up the entire mountain, he will have the opportunity to see the current prosperity.
"Come closer, I need to see clearly."
Jiang Qian gave instructions to the new mount.
The beetle snake roared obediently, and waved its wings to slow down and carefully circle the palace.
Now everyone can see that this wonderful rotunda has two "entrances", located at the front and back ends of the entire domed palace. It gives the illusion of entering through one of the doors and exiting through the other......
Of course, in the case of this difficult building, it is difficult to say which place is the "front door" and which is the "back door".
There is a choice to be made here.
"Someone has already arrived first." Sand and stone chips were raised under Shajin's palms, and countless small creatures drilled out from the cracks in the rocks, cooperating with the careful confirmation of the surrounding traces.
"There's no other possibility, it's a treacherous child." As the holy daughter of the treacherous child, Elegy is very sure, "The broken footprints around here are probably the traces left by the Snake Beast King." ”
"And the Night Lang and the Water Ghost." Shakin added.
"It's just that I don't know if the current trickster is still not the one you know~" Ayiguli looked at the elegy and smiled meaningfully.
They had all seen the ancestral god's ability to steal beams and change pillars before. Except for Jiang Qian, who has an overloaded body of strange energy to fight poison with poison, the other princes may not be able to carry it.
"Maybe the ancestral god has already laid a net inside and is waiting for us."
"Do you want to divide the troops into two ways? Take advantage of the properties of the spirit cobweb. Sha Jin said tentatively.
This is a bold suggestion that can make up for the disadvantages caused by the poor information inside the palace to the greatest extent, and even avoid the risk of total annihilation.
Jiang Qian shook his head: "The spiritual cobweb is a guarantee tool for special circumstances, and we don't need to disperse it now." The more complex the internal situation, the more necessary it is to concentrate on sticking to the fundamentals and avoid being broken one by one. ”
Hearing this, Elegy secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She knew very well that once she chose to act separately, the side that could not follow Jiang Qian would become an information ingestion tool, a pawn and bait that could be abandoned at any time.
Jiang Qian does not make such a trade-off, which shows that he has fundamental self-confidence and determination.
"We enter from the opposite side."
"It's good!"
"I'm fine~"
"Do you want to go in the same direction? I'm okay with that. ”
The trio quickly reached a consensus.
There is no doubt that following the traces of the other party is futile, and it is easy to be ambushed and misled; Pursuing head-on from the opposite direction is a relatively smart choice.
Regardless of whether the trick boy is still "me", since the four-in-one rule is the key to leaving this place safely, then the other party will definitely take the initiative to find Jiang Qian, and the latter can still be controlled.
So, as the four of them fell to the ground, the three-card upgraded version of the Snake Beast King roared! The giant arch that the four of them faced slowly moved and opened.
There was darkness inside.
"Let's go."
As the beetle snake was retracted into its cage, Jiang Qian gave an order, and the four of them stepped into the darkness inside the arch.
But darkness only exists for a moment.
When the arch was closed, the environment where the four of them stopped suddenly became clear!
The palatial interior, the pillars and even the floor under the feet are paved with gold and jade, colorful gems can be seen everywhere, reflecting each other, and the endless corridor exudes the mellow aroma of wine and meat, mercilessly arousing the gluttony of the four.
"Here...... It's finally a bit of a banquet. Sha Jin swallowed subconsciously.
"Don't laugh~ Little golden scorpion, shouldn't you be scared to smell this smell in this dark and decaying underground castle?"
As soon as Ayiguli's words fell, the sound of rustling came from all directions.
The sound came from far and near, gathered into a lot, and the high-frequency agitation was like the thin sound of a large number of insects crawling by, and it was like the friction sound of a sticky thing dragging on the ground, which made people's scalp tingle.
Jiang Qian, who had already turned on his spiritual vision, raised the corner of his mouth: "The welcoming team has arrived, be careful not to be scattered." ”
……
The other side inside the Dome of the Rock.
In the middle of the long and narrow corridor, the three-headed beast king, carrying three figures, walked in the light of the jewels with heavy steps.
Walking on the left is the man in black carried by the giant dung beetle, the holy envoy of the sacred mountain. A man and a beast are very low-key, and at first glance they are all black, but there is a thick bloody aura lingering in a trance.
Walking on the right is a prehistoric emperor crocodile crawling forward, and sitting cross-legged on his back is a curly-haired hipster man wearing an army green jacket, black jeans, and toad glasses. Although a man and a beast were tightly wrapped, they were inevitably splashed with a large amount of unidentified flesh and blood debris, slimy and dragged to the ground.
It can be seen that he has just experienced a bloody battle.
In the middle of the two is a dwarf boy who has turned into a snake on his mount.
He was brightly dressed and adorned with jewels, his indistinguishable face always had a bright smile, and his short body contained a crazy and dangerous soul.
The snake beast king under his seat is even more unpredictable: the human face is a jackal, the wings of the bird are snakes, and from time to time he makes a baby-like cry, which makes people hear the roots of their teeth sour and the back of their backs.
Compared with the companions on the left and right, the duo is very clean and has a relaxed and unrestrained demeanor.
With this intermittent cry, the water under the feet of the Snake Beast King continued to wash over his body, washing away the unidentified debris dripping from the dung beetles and emperor crocodiles in time.
"It looks like that pile of things only exists on the periphery, and if you go a certain distance, you won't catch up." The water ghost holy envoy, who was a tide man, looked behind him as he spoke.
"It's disgusting enough, like maggots growing in the ground, and you can't cut it inexhaustibly." Dark Night Langjun said.
"Forget those little crumbs, two holy envoys~"
The strange boy's voice is clear and pleasant, like a little boy who has not yet gone through the voice change period, so immature that it is impossible to refuse:
"As long as we reach the finish line one step ahead of the dragon, the balance of victory will be completely tilted in our favor! Those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, heh, that kid probably hasn't realized this yet. ”
There was a brief silence.
The three-headed beast did not stop walking, they were sharp and cautious, like the most loyal guards, to clear the way for their masters on their backs.
"But...... Do you really ignore it? The water ghost was still paying attention to the murals on both sides of the corridor, "Why do I think the existence of these paintings does not look like a simple decoration?" ”
As he said, the walls on both sides of the three of them are carved with exquisite craftsmanship on the background of gold and jade jewelry, and the style of painting is very similar to the serialized version of adult comics.
Most importantly, the content of the mural makes it difficult for the water spirits not to care.
"That's not decoration."
The boy giggled without looking back, "That's the past of the Sacred Mountain. ”
"Oh? How do you know? The water ghost became more curious, staring at a group of murals of "resurrection from the dead" from afar.
"Hahaha!" The boy smiled heartily and replied, "Our Lady prefers children, and children love to hear stories the most." ”
The water ghost helped the toad mirror, said a meaningful "um", and stared at a mural of the ghosts of the four snakes.
"He is worthy of the Virgin's favorite prince!" Dark Night Langjun couldn't help but echo a sentence, and then turned into a sigh, "If I hadn't really seen the strength of the hidden dragon, I would probably have more confidence in you." ”
The boy only laughed and said nothing.
At this time, the water ghost's question came again: "What is that?" Uh, I know all the four beasts in the ranks, what the hell is that thing in the middle? ”
The strange boy's gaze wandered, looking at what the water ghost was pointing at: "It's the ancestral god." ”
"Ancestral God ......?"
Under the toad mirror, the water ghost frowned: "Lord Ancestral God, the relationship with the four beasts in the rank seems to be ...... How does it seem to be the same thing? Shouldn't it? ”
The trick boy sneered: "I don't know about this. ”
"Eh, look at that cage...... Like this damn domed palace? ”
The water ghost was completely attracted by this exquisitely carved picture, and only after a while did he notice that the strange boy had already turned his face away, and he was too lazy to pay attention to him.
At the same time, there was a complaint from the dark night Langjun: "Strange thing, why is it getting colder and colder." ”
Only then did the water ghost realize that the temperature in the palace had dropped significantly, so he subconsciously wrapped himself in a leather jacket and couldn't help but sneeze.
The moment he looked down, he was surprised to find that the water on the ground had formed ice ballast.
When I looked up again, the murals on both sides magically disappeared......
The boy who was walking ahead stopped.
So, the water ghost and the dark night Langjun also stopped.
It's not that they want to stop, it's that the ice on the ground bites the feet of the beastmasters!
The endless passage ahead also trembled faintly in the pressing cold airflow, and the frost color instantly filled the vision of the three of them......
……
On the other side, Jiang Qian's four people were being provoked by a large number of dangerous ingredients.
Giant reptiles with colorful mutations, centipedes with legsless but super bouncing power, lobsters covered in fungi, and fluffy snakes...... The sheer number of them, and the variety of types, directly forced Sha Jin, Elegy, and Ayiguli to release the Beastmaster on the spot, and opened a big move!
The lethality of this group of things is not mentioned for the time being, and the "disgusting" is definitely a hand-held pinch, and no one can beat it!
Casually chopping a stump can erupt with a thrilling effect like slapping a peeing cow ball, and the splash effect is unbeatable.
Everyone's protective peripherals were being bullied like never before.
In the end, it has to be an elegy!
As a soul singer and a woman with a strong habit of cleanliness, she couldn't bear to launch an indiscriminate mental attack, so that the full juice of the "dangerous ingredients" could be successfully retained in their own bodies.
After breaking out of the encirclement, the four people looked very embarrassed, in addition to the mental blow, the unknown meat crumbs all over their bodies were also exuding a rich fresh fish, which was extremely strange to stimulate everyone's appetite.
Sha Jin immediately released quicksand to wash away the people and the beastmaster, and used the quicksand to wash away most of the stumps and debris in the chaotic battle, and finally ended the torment.
Jiang Qian took off the chivalrous cloak and held it in his hand, and he could clearly feel that the performance of this prop had been greatly suppressed.
The same goes for stealth armor, at least the stealth function has failed for no reason.
A means of unloading defenses? It's a bit of a bad thing...... Jiang Qian sighed lightly, I wonder if the snake and the others also suffered the same treatment.
Ayiguli angrily took off the noise-reducing earbuds and gritted her teeth at the elegy: "Before opening the cavity next time, can you say hello?" Who are you sending away......?! ”
Before she finished speaking, she was swept into her arms by quicksand, burying half of her body, and almost missing her chest.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" Sha Jin apologized again and again, and was about to remove the sand pile himself, so much so that he almost broke his neck by spider silk.
"Come and see."
Jiang Qian's voice refocused the attention of the three of them.
I saw Jiang Qian standing on the side of the corridor, staring at a mural carved by gold and jade.
The content of this painting immediately aroused the alarm of the three of them, so they followed Jiang Qian's side and carefully examined the content of the murals on this side.
"It's ......"
Ayiguli stared at the figure made of simple lines and walked forward, trying to read the content and meaning of the entire mural:
The fallen man, the soul flies, gets up and turns into a long-winged evil ghost, and the evil ghost gathers to worship the ghost king......
She only read one serial and was stunned.
Although she had never seen any of these paintings, it seemed that she could understand each of them.
At this time, Jiang Qian's voice came from her ears, calm and calm:
"The dying are called, empowered, and gathered on the mountain...... Well, barely right. ”
As he spoke, he looked back at the three of them:
"Life and death are at stake, you're welcome, you can remind me at any time if there is a discrepancy."
Although Elegy and Shajin didn't say much, their expressions had changed slightly!
The three of them pressed their inner voices, and as Jiang Qian's interpretation and pace moved forward, their eyes followed the next group of murals......
