I can keep you until five watches [Unlimited] verse 258
Chen Yun also sighed and patted Lu Shuo on the shoulder: "I suspect that you are speaking ancient Egyptian, it seems that what is written on the wall has to be seen by ourselves." ”
Actually, this is the best.
Because then there will be no controversy - want to know the clues? Behold for yourself, do not rely on other people's eyes, do not rely on other people's mouths.
Now there was no reason for everyone to stand behind others and not want to risk themselves, they also wiped off the eyeshadow and eyeliner around their eyes with their hands, and then looked up at the wall, and on the wall was written five lines:
[This is the end of the journey.]
God has shown you three paths:
Is it to the afterlife?
Or is it back to the world?
Or is it devoured by a great sin? 】
Xin Yuechun slapped her hands after reading it and said, "Very good, it's all right." ”
Going to the afterlife, returning to the human world, and being consumed by deep sins should each have three endings for the participants in this dungeon: entering the stage of eternal life, returning to the real world, and dying.
"That's right, in our traditional culture, 'afterlife' means reincarnation." Chen Yun bowed his head slightly, "But the ancient Egyptians believed in the immortality of the soul, and they believed that the afterlife was eternal life. ”
Therefore, the real meaning of "going to the afterlife" recorded on the stone wall is: to obtain eternal life.
Tu Wencai asked eagerly: "Then in ancient Egyptian mythology, how can people go to the afterlife?" ”
Lu Shuo said: "I know this, you have to die first." When you die, you'll have to walk a long way full of soul-devouring goblins, but if you can pronounce their names aloud, they'll be repulsed, and if you don't know their names, you'll be fine, you can chant spells to scare them off, and you'll eventually come to the Inquisition and be judged. ”
"I've heard the rest of the story, and I know it!"
Zhan Meng took Lu Shuo's words and said, "We'll see Anubis in the courtroom, right?" Then he will take out the scale of judgment and tell us to put our hearts on it and compare it with the feather of truth. If our heart is as heavy as the feather of truth, then we can enter the afterlife; But if the heart is heavier than the Feather of Truth, then this heart will be devoured by the demon Amit, and we will die completely, forever. ”
"That's pretty much it." Chen Yun said, "There is another point to note: the weight of the heart is related to the good and evil that the person bears in his heart. ”
Hearing this, Xin Yuechun raised her eyebrows: "A person who has kindness in his heart will have a heart as heavy as the feather of truth; Doesn't that mean that the heart of a person who has evil in his heart will be heavier than the feather of truth? ”
Chen Yun nodded in affirmation.
"Grass...... Then I've done a lot of bad things. Zhan Meng was shocked and shocked, "I have no quality, I curse people every day, if I choose to go to the path of the afterlife, Suo Changsheng will definitely kill me." ”
“……”
It doesn't seem to be true.
After all, as soon as Zhan Meng mentioned it, Xie Yinxue and Qian Qian suddenly remembered him, "Are you busy?" Busy, I'm busy attending your mother's funeral".
Zhan Meng was too empty-hearted: "I can't take this road, I'd better go back to the world." The devil knows if any of those human-headed beastheads were the caller I had scolded. ”
Chapter 253
"Don't you want to gain immortality?"
Xin Yuechun let out a long "oh" after listening to him, and asked with interest: "You just want to clear the dungeon, completely untie yourself from Suo Changsheng, and return to the real world to live your life well?" ”
"Who wouldn't want to live forever?" Zhan Meng was speechless, and pointed his finger on their chests and said, "Feel your conscience - if you still have this thing, and then tell me that you can live forever, will you not want to?" ”
Ming Sheng opened his mouth, and before he could speak, Zhan Meng raised his hand to interrupt him and said, "Don't say you don't want to, I don't believe it." ”
"Aren't you a billionaire because you don't want to? It's because I can't make that much money. Zhan Meng's words were exquisite, and every sentence was incisive, piercing the hearts of everyone present who was not a billionaire, "I'll leave the words here today, who of you loves to fight for immortality The only place who goes, anyway, I don't want to, and you don't treat me as an imaginary competitor, I want to live forever, but I'm more afraid of dying halfway to immortality, so what I want most is to live well." ”
Instead of pointing his finger, he pointed down with his index finger and pointed to the ground as if he were swearing, and said, "If I say these things falsely, I will die tonight!" If any of you do not believe me, then you will ...... tonight You have to think carefully about whether or not to believe me. ”
Everyone: "......"
This is too blunt, isn't it?
Sissi couldn't cry or laugh, shook her head in admiration: "Zhan Meng, you have a good mouth, why do you speak?" ”
"Brother, you don't need to swear such a poisonous oath." Tu Wencai also stepped forward, pressed his palm on Zhan Meng's shoulder, and motioned for him to calm down, "We all just want to clear the customs, after all, surviving is the most important thing, right?" ”
"What are you thinking?"
A soft, warm voice slowly swept into everyone's ears, and because it was so light, it sounded like a sigh at first glance, but the question at the end raised the tone was like a grappling hook by the temple square, easily grabbing their hearts.
Everyone followed the sound to look at Xie Yinxue, and the young man also looked back at them lightly, his eyes were cold and warm, but the corners of his mouth were clearly curved, and he said with a smile: "Do you think that these three roads are for you to choose freely?" ”
Xin Yuechun felt that this sentence sounded strange, although she knew that Xie Yinxue meant that which path they wanted to take in the end was actually not up to them to choose.
But it sounds like it's weird beyond words.
She opened her lips and was about to say something more, but after catching a glimpse of the pool in the center of the temple, Xin Yuechun's mouth opened wider and wider, and the other participants noticed her unusual behavior and turned their heads to look behind her.
"I'll ......"
Looking at the "humanoid objects" that kept crawling out of the square pool, Yao Xiaoguo covered his mouth and couldn't help but curse: "What is that?" ”
The square pool in the center of the temple is bottomless.
The deeper it looks, the darker the color of the pond water, as if it can go straight to the gloomy and cold hell, even if the surrounding heat wave is restless and tumbling, it will make everyone who looks at it stand on end at the moment of seeing it, and it is difficult to suppress a feeling of suffocation buried under the wet and cold soil.
And now, this pool only ripples when the rope grabbing hook mechanism is activated, but at the moment it is boiling and surging, but ordinary water boiling is bubbles, this pool of water, it "boils" out...... But it is countless dried corpses with gray and dull complexions, wrinkled skin and flesh, tightly wrapped and clinging to the bones!
They are so thin, with their bellies sunken as if they were all visceral, that the word "bones" is more appropriate to describe than "dried corpses."
So Li Chanyi gritted her teeth and replied to Yao Xiaoguo: "It's like a mummified corpse without a bandage...... Jamon! Congratulations, you're right, there are indeed mummies here! ”
Those dry corpses stretched out their fingers like sharp claws, and their mouths were as weird and terrifying as the world-famous painting "The Scream", which was oval-shaped, almost swallowing people's heads, and rushed towards everyone with a silent roar.
No one wants to know what happens if they get caught.
"Run! Let's run——! ”
Jamon was the first to run down the stone steps where they had entered the underground temple, slapping himself in the mouth as he ran, asking the same question as Sissi, "Fuck, my shit!" Why do you speak? ”
Chen Yun also reminded everyone: "We have to go back!" Find those human-headed people and get makeup tools to reapply eye makeup! ”
INTERVIEWER It turns out that this is the real purpose of eye makeup.
With eye makeup on their eyes, they will be blessed by the sun god and Horus, and they will see a peaceful and serene world; And when the eyes are without eye makeup, they will see the evil and weird side of the world.
It will also ......
Attacked by them.
When everyone stepped out of the narrow stone steps, they found that on the walls of the corpses on both sides of the stone steps, there were also many thin corpse arms, densely packed and waved like demons, just to catch the participants walking through it.
Zhan Meng's tall body suffered a lot at this time, and the stone steps were a little bit of a place, and Zhan Meng was crowded in it, like a large live target, and was dragged by two pairs of withered arms in less than two seconds.
At first, Jamon didn't care, the kinetic energy generated by people running at high speed is very large, just like a large truck carrying heavy loads is difficult to stop moving immediately under the action of inertia, so it is impossible for such thin two arms to stop him, on the contrary, it may be torn off by Jamon's body.
However, no one expected that Zhan Meng was really dragged and stopped.
The two withered arms pulled him and slammed him into the wall, and the kinetic inertia was all applied to Jamon himself, almost knocking him into vomiting blood.
"Fuck ......"
Zhan Meng's face was painful, as if he had been injured internally, and his voice became hoarse: "Why are they so strong?!" ”
Lu Shuo and Xiao Siyu stepped forward to help him, clasping their withered arms so hard that they were almost embedded in Zhan Meng's flesh, but they worked hard for a long time, but there was no effect.
"No! Can't break it! Xiao Siyu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.
Lu Shuo was even more unlucky, he didn't help others, but put himself in: "I rely on me!" I got caught too! ”
And the worst thing is ......
This stone step road is not wide, and now after the two big men Zhan Meng and Lu Shuo are fixed on the wall by their withered arms on the left and right, the stone steps road is almost blocked, and the dry corpses that crawled out of the square pond behind are still pressing step by step, which can be called a wolf in front and a tiger in the back.
Immediately, Tu Wencai was also dragged by the two dry corpse arms, and while he struggled violently, he shouted loudly and asked the others: "Damn, their hands are really strong!" Can't you escape if you are caught by them?! ”
"What the hell? It's got a human head! Zhan Meng looked in horror at the biceps brachii muscle of his arm, a reduced version, about half the size of a palm, the head of a dried corpse, feeling that he was afraid that he was going to say goodbye to the road of fitness, he was afraid that he would practice in the future, and a human head would also appear on the biceps.
On the other side, Lu Shuo stared at the human head growing on his withered arms for a few seconds, and suddenly said, "Why do I think this human head is a little familiar?" …… Huley? ”
Hu Li was one of the male participants they met at the Castle Peak Mental Hospital, and Lu Shuo was very impressed by his name, which sounded like "fox", and what he did to almost kill Chen Yun.
"Chen Yun, Xiao Siyu, help me see if this head is-"
Lu Shuo's words came to an abrupt halt, because when he pronounced the name "Huli", the two withered arms that grabbed him let go and retracted into the wall, and the human head on his biceps disappeared.
"It's the name!" Lu Shuo suddenly realized, "Hurry up and pronounce their names!" ”
In ancient Egyptian mythology, the path to the Inquisition after death was full of spirit-devouring ghosts, but if you could pronounce their names aloud, they would be repulsed. It seems that this copy is incorporating the legend as a rule!
But this stumped Jamon: "But I don't know who this human head grabbed me is!" ”
"Absolutely." Chen Yun prompted him with a clue, "If I'm not mistaken, these dried corpses should all be the dead participants in the copies we have experienced, Zhan Meng, you look at its face, and think about it again!" ”
"I'm dead, I can't think of it!" Jamon said in despair, "Who can remember the names of all the participants in the copy they have experienced?" ”
Lu Shuo said in his heart: Don't say it, there really is.
For example, Xie Yinxue will definitely be able to remember them all, and Bian Yuchen may not be able to say the same.
He, Chen Yun and Xiao Siyu also have a natural advantage in this level that no one else has - they basically go through every level together, and one of the dead participants in these copies may not remember all of them, but they are three people who can remind each other.
Just thinking like this, Bian Yuchen, who was also shackled by his withered arms, opened his mouth as if confirmed, and called out a name: "Thirteen." ”
As soon as the words fell, he was free.
Seeing this, Xie Yinxue hooked her lips and chuckled, and glanced at Bian Yuchen meaningfully.
Bian Yuchen looked calm, and also smiled back at Xie Yinxue.
Zhan Meng couldn't laugh anymore, he only had a vague impression of the human head in front of him, he spit out several names in a row, but he didn't pronounce them correctly, after a few times, Zhan Meng was completely out of line, broke the jar and said: "Big brother...... I don't know you, please let me go, I'll burn you paper when I go back." ”
Unexpectedly, after saying this, the dead corpse's arm really let go of its five fingers and set Zhan Meng free.
Zhan Meng was a little stunned when he saw it: Is there such a good thing in Suo Changsheng?
The answer is: no.
Before the dead corpse's arm completely loosened its restraints on Jammon, the miniature human head on the biceps suddenly "stood up", because three pairs of metallic insect feet grew under its head, and there were horn-like protruding hairs on it, and it moved forward by these three pairs of insect feet, crawled onto Jamon's shoulder with a sly smile, and then grew its mouth, bit through Jamon's skin, burrowed into his body, and flowed under the man's skin, from the arms to the chest and abdomen, and from the chest and abdomen to the cheeks, and every inch of skin crawled through would emerge in a terrifying bulge, It's horrifying.
Zhan Meng was a big macho man, and at this moment his mentality finally collapsed, and he let out a terrible scream.
