Chapter 485: Thousand-Year Echo
He trotted all the way to catch up with Meishu, and soon the end of the passage appeared in front of him.
At this time, bursts of singing sounded in Xia Lu's ears.
The sound is very clear, like a lot of people singing together, and the tune is old and weird.
His body shook slightly, and his eyes fell on Meishu.
Her face was calm, as if she hadn't heard at all.
Soon, the two of them entered a place like a large hall.
The main hall is very spacious, supported by four thick pillars with huge dragon patterns carved on them.
There seemed to be a flame burning inside the dragon's eye, emitting a technical glow.
The dragon's body was not motionless, but slowly wriggled as if it had been acquired.
And around the main hall grows things that look like stones but not stones, flowers and not flowers, and they are not satisfied with the front wall.
They are also alive, constantly swimming and shuttling on the walls.
The singing in Xia Lu's ears became louder and louder, like tens of thousands of people calling out, and at the same time it looked like tens of thousands of people were singing war songs, and the voice became more and more oppressive.
His heartbeat couldn't help but speed up, and he stopped and said to Mei Shu, "Did you hear this voice?" ”
Meishu nodded, and her footsteps did not stop.
"This is the Hall of Echoes, where the ancestors lived, where our people lived, and where they usually rested."
Hall of Echoes?
Xia Lu's gaze swept over the moving plants on the wall, and he wondered, "The sound is made by these things, are they also some kind of mutated creatures?" Or what you call sacred grass or something. ”
Mei Shu shook her head: "It's not a divine grass, but a substance, which the gods use to record their lives, don't worry, they won't hurt anyone." ”
Xia Lu was shocked when he heard this.
Is this the war song of more than 1,000 years ago?
Although a thousand years have passed, he can still feel the bursts of battle intent coming from the war song.
It's as if a certain gene in the body is awakening.
The two men continued to walk inside, past the main hall, and came to an extremely small hallway.
It seems to be a place dug by hand, and the passage is circular, like a robbery hole.
Xia Lu couldn't help but wonder, didn't they open this passage, but dug a tunnel?
Things were just as he thought, and Meishu explained them to him.
"The outside is just the shell of the Holy Land, and this is the core of the Holy Land, and my people can't find a way to get in, so they can only dig one out by themselves."
Xia Lu smiled bitterly when he heard this, this is an artifact, and the people of Meishu are really bold and dare to dig anything.
If you enter the thief cave, you can't go directly, you have to bend down and go in little by little.
At this time, Xia Lu found out that the clothes on Meishu's body were not ordinary fabrics, but thin things like cicada wings.
Because the surface is uneven, it is visually white, but in fact it has no color.
The two of them bent over, and the situation under her clothes was clearly visible, which made Xia Lu addicted.
Walking through the passage, they came to a cylindrical space.
The surrounding walls are lined with small grids, each of which resembles a tombstone with many runes engraved on it.
All in a downward spiral, neat and asymmetrical arrangement.
As soon as the two of them entered this cylindrical space, each of them immediately lit up, and rows of stairs appeared under their feet, all the way down the cylindrical space.
Meishu led Xia Lu up the stairs, and all the surrounding grids changed.
Some kind of fluid seemed to appear on the surface of each other, opening one lattice after another, and Xia Lu suddenly found that it was an egg-like thing.
A translucent solution was filled with seed-like stuff floating in it, and countless tentacles grew on the seeds.
Xia Lu's face changed suddenly.
It's clearly alive, but it's just going into a dormant state.
Meishu sensed his surprise and glared back at him.
"Don't panic, they can sense fear, these are ancient creatures, any one that comes out is enough for the two of us to eat a pot."
Ancients!
Xia Lu couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
However, something even more horrifying soon happened, when he found that several eggs had been ruptured and the creatures inside were missing.
"These are broken!"
Xia Lu pointed to an egg channel.
Meishu glanced at it and nodded slightly.
"Well, the one that broke down not long ago should have something to do with the mutation in your world, they escaped, so it caused the mutation in the outside world."
Xia Lu was shocked when he heard this.
If he hadn't entered this hall today, he wouldn't have known what the reason for the end would have come.
"You're saying that someone released the mutated creatures here that caused the mutation in our world?"
His eyes flickered.
At the beginning of the end of the world, the world's landforms changed, strange weather, earthquakes, and other disasters continued to occur.
Finally, various mutated creatures appeared.
Could it be that the change in the landform is not because of the earthquake, but because someone has moved Jiuding?
He had heard that the end of the white peony might be intentional by Jiuding, and this was Jiuding in front of him.
What if Jiuding deliberately released the creatures it suppressed?
Nuwa outside should have suppressed Jiuding, could it be said that Jiuding has life, and it asked Nuwa to suppress it?
However, there is not only one Jiuding, and the global disaster began at the same time, and Jiuding is only available in Kyushu.
So what's going on with the disasters elsewhere?
He couldn't help but wonder.
Moreover, if Jiuding has life, why not release all the mutants at once?
Xia Lu looked at Mei Shu suspiciously, wanting to get an answer from her.
However, she didn't seem to be interested in these issues at all, and just took Xia Lu straight down.
I don't know how long they walked all the way, but the two of them quickly reached the bottom, and a gate appeared in front of them again.
The entire gate is made up of a strange sculpture, like two giant Hercules trying to drag something up.
Hercules is human, but the shape of the head does not resemble that of a human.
Moreover, Xia Lu also saw a lot of strangely shaped utensils in front of the gate, although I don't know what they are used for, but these utensils are not simple at first glance.
"What is this place?"
Xia Lu couldn't help but wonder and asked Meishu.
However, when she arrived at this gate, Meishu's face was abnormal, and even if she heard it, she didn't answer Xia Lu's words.
She kept walking forward, as if she was stuck in some memory, unable to extricate herself.
Xia Lu could only keep up.
The two of them entered the gate, and suddenly entered a huge space.
There are more sculptures and totems here, and many strange creatures are carved.
Each creature is lifelike, giving people the feeling of the existence of ancient gods and all kinds of exotic beasts in an instant.
And each of these sculptures is not just for viewing, they are more like some kind of operating tool, with runes engraved on them.
