Chapter 676: Ancient Sect (I)
As you go up the trail, the crowd becomes thinner. Gradually, on the mountain road under your feet, the mist condensed in the high altitude in the mountain stream was stirred by the wind, hazy like a thin veil, surrounding the green mountains and green trees. The golden sunlight dispelled the dampness and cold.
Stand on top of the hill and look down.
But seeing the picturesque rivers and mountains, there is also an indescribable poetic and picturesque feeling, and the endless meandering beauty.
The mountain cliff is steep, and there are strange flowers and grasses and craggy old pines between the cliffs.
The snake coiled on the mountain path between the cliffs is dangerous and tempting, and people with great curiosity will always be tempted to step on it, wanting to find out what is hidden higher in the sea of clouds.
Walking is really carrying clouds and fog, chic as the wind.
The Goddess Peak, which is often shrouded in clouds and mist, is no wonder that there are such mythical stories. Sure enough, it is inseparable from its handsomeness and danger.
Just at the foot of the Goddess Peak, directly opposite the foot of the Tibetan Wu Peak, a winding clear stream flows like a jade belt. Through the heavy clouds, some of them are not clear. Just the vague outline makes people feel relaxed and happy.
"We've missed a lot of caves, aren't we going in?" asked the young man in a black iron mask to a girl dressed in black with bright eyes.
The girl smiled wisely, coiled a small verdant snake around the tips of her fingers, played with the snake's head, and waved her hand lightly: "Don't worry! Wait, let's climb up a little more." ”
"My grandfather used to say that you can't get things done in a hurry, and you have to stand high enough and see enough to really understand many mysteries. The girl said with a smile.
On the top of the mountain, there were also quite a few people, girls and teenagers who chose a less crowded position to look down.
I saw a lot of figures jumping all over the mountains.
Some have penetrated the caves of the Goddess Peak, and there are also more sneaking to explore the Tibetan Wu Peak.
Others, they scattered into the entire Sorrowful Mountains, going to some nameless peaks, wanting to go sideways and pick up a big leak.
Suddenly, a small lilac bat flew to the top of the girl's head, and from a distance it looked like a special hairpin, coiled around her head.
The girl seemed to understand something, and there was an expression on her face that it was indeed so.
"Let's go!" the girl beckoned, and walked into the cavern.
In the cave, the stone stalactites in the shape of pillars are hanging upside down, in contact with the ground, and the cave is not damp. However, a clear flow of wind direction can be felt. Following the direction of the wind, the girl and the teenager went deeper and deeper.
The deeper you go, the darker the cave becomes.
Only by injecting true qi into the eyes can you see the things in the cave normally.
There are many forks in the cave. And all seem to have air circulation. The girl's steps randomly chose one direction and continued to walk inside.
Cave **, from time to time there are other sounds, mixed with each other, but it is not real.
It's more like a weird murmur.
Some of them are like quarrels, some of them are like jokes, and some of them are like special sounds between men and women when doing things.
The girl's cheeks flushed slightly for a moment, and then she continued to lead the way and strode forward.
Finally, in the depths of the mountain, someone found a tall black stone figure.
These stone figures have different shapes, but each one is carved in a very strange way, like a combination of a bird and a man. Each stone figure bears some bird features.
"What a strange stone man!" someone sighed.
"yes! It's like it's real!"
Someone lightly touched these stone figures, and felt a cold hand, and only then did they determine that these stone figures were really fake.
Looking at these stone figures doing various actions, from the image point of view, some of them seem to be chatting together, some seem to be arguing together, some are simply fighting each other, and some are hugging each other, which seems to be infinitely warm.
It's like a whole world, frozen in time at a moment.
Like a photograph, a freeze-frame world is formed.
"Hell, there's no road! Is there just such a stone man? What kind of ancient sect relics is this?" someone shouted unwillingly.
"There must be some undiscovered mechanism here!"
"Let's take a closer look to see if there are any special buttons or anything, or if these stone figures can move!" someone came up with an idea.
The crowd responded, and many people tried to move the stone figures, but the stone figures were like roots under their feet, and no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't move them away.
"Bastard! what the hell!" someone couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and slashed at the stone man.
Click!
The stone man, which looked hard, was cracked very simply.
A blood-red liquid flowed out of the crack.
"This... What is this?"
"I found it! These liquids must be the key to opening the mechanism!" exclaimed excitedly, the man who had slashed the stone man first.
Click··· Click··· Click!
At the man's call, many people drew their weapons one after another and smashed the stone figures in front of them. Drain out the bright red liquid inside.
Of course, there are a few people who ask to be cautious. It's a pity that most people are carried away in front of the ruins that are already about to be opened, and these dissuasions not only do not have a corresponding effect, but have the opposite effect.
In a few moments, all the stone figures were shattered.
The fragments of the broken stone figures were scattered all over the ground, and it looked like there was a tragic feeling.
The bright red liquid flowed like a spirit, and then along a special trajectory, outlining blood-colored runes one by one.
The people standing in the blood instinctively sensed that something was wrong and wanted to leave.
But it was already too late.
The bright red liquid was not only able to outline the blood-colored runes, but also seemed to have a strong adhesive force, and the feet of these people were firmly glued to the ground by the red liquid.
Some of the trapped bystanders, trying to rescue their companions, were sucked in the moment they approached the red light emitted by the red runes, and became immobile like those who were already inside.
"What's going on?"
"My legs! I can't move my legs!"
In the gradually forming array, exclamations came and went.
The few remaining people who were not shrouded in the formation diagram all quickly retreated far away, only daring to watch from afar.
Of course, this also includes girls and teenagers.
The frightened crowd in the formation took out their weapons one after another, and hit the runes desperately. Unfortunately, it didn't work, and all of their attacks seemed to be absorbed by the red liquid.
Instead, it facilitated the flow of the red liquid.
Bursts of birdsong rose for no reason.
Then the blood-colored shadow of the bird flew out of the array, looking for a 'host' to be compatible with it.
In the end, a large number of people will be turned into monsters that are not human and birds are not birds.
The strange thing is that the people who were originally flustered actually calmed down after turning into bird monsters.
They stood together, making the gesture of talking. There are also scufflers together, and there are hugging each other, such as reunion after a long absence. Everything is strikingly similar to the stone figures I saw at first.
Far away, the people who escaped and watched this scene happen all felt a chill coming out of their backs.
Then, not long after, after everyone had taken their poses, a black flame suddenly ignited in the array.
Under the calcination of the black flames, those who hid far away seemed to be able to hear the wails in the souls of those who were trapped.
And with the naked eye, it can be seen that the bodies of those who are trapped in the formation are transforming into a material like black stone.
