The end of the ladder leads directly to Long Dan's belly, and the space inside is not that big.
There are two pools on the ground, and the walls of the pools are carved with ferocious evil spirits.
There are dozens of ancient white stone figures standing on both sides of the pool, a little taller than ordinary people.
Each stone statue holds a stone cup the size of a sea bowl in its hands.
In the ritual described in the human skin painting in the Temple of Memory City, the gouged out eyeballs were installed with such an instrument.
Hu Bayi looked into the stone cup, but there was nothing.
There are several smaller caves with strong religious colors in the surrounding area.
After seeing the place, Hu Bayi put Uncle Ming on his back to rest. He was already awake at this time, but he was still a little unconscious. If asked, he would not say anything. Just shook his head.
I don’t know if he suffered a concussion.
Hu Bayi had no choice but to ignore him and walked towards Lin Ruoyan's place.
Lin Ruoyan pretended to take out the Muchen Bead from his pocket and handed it to Hu Bayi.
"Xueli, how do we hold this ceremony?" Hu Bayi took the Muchen Bead.
Xueli Yang was staring at a place surrounded by strange carvings, and there was a human-shaped groove on the ground with open limbs.
It seems to be a place of execution. It may have been a long time, too many people were killed inside, and it was soaked in blood and turned dark red.
Xue Liyang looked ugly and said nothing. He just pointed at the carvings on the stone slabs and let them see for themselves.
The group of people walked over and looked at the place carved on the wall.
These wall carvings are very straightforward and easy to understand. Several people only took a few glances and understood them closely.
At first glance, breathing became difficult.
"To hold a ceremony, at least one living person needs to be killed as a sacrifice.
Without the soul of the victim, the candle cannot burn, just like there is no air."
p>
Hu Bayi said with difficulty.
This is a dilemma. If he kills his companions in order to survive, he cannot accept it from a moral or conscience perspective.
If we all eat from the same pot, who can do evil things to his companions?
Kill your companions, even if you survive, you will get rid of the curse of the ghost cave.
He also fell into a situation of no return, and could never get rid of the condemnation of his conscience.
Lin Ruoyan stared blankly at the wall carvings above.
The lines and human figures in the painting can clearly distinguish which is the sacrifice and which is the priest.
The entire process of worshiping the snake god is completed by two priests.
They wore masks and priestly clothes. A priest fixed the slave to the wall.superior.
Use a sharp tool to peel off the skin of the slaves from the forehead, and then put them into the human-shaped groove on the ground to kill them while they are still alive.
Another priest held the dead sacrifice and entered the area between the two pools.
Put the deceased and the phoenix guts into two opposite pools at the same time.
It seems to be to maintain a certain balance of power.
Zhang Qiling looked at her in silence and daze with worried eyes. Did the bloody ritual on the mural scare her?
Xueli Yang also felt a great burden after hearing Hu Bayi's words.
Hu Bayi comforted her: "There must be other ways. This is not a dead end. Let's think of other ways."
He said this, but in fact I don't know what to do, I just want to delay it for a moment, and I don't want to face this cruel choice right now.
"Old Hu, come here and take a look at this." Fatty and Zhang Haike squatted on the ground, looking at a strange crystal bowl.
"This seems to be an ancient hourglass."
Zhang Haike stared at the crystal bowl shaped like a small water tank and said.
This bowl body is connected to the mountain of Yushan, and it is integrated, and the interface cannot be seen where.
A thin wisp of dark blue crystal sand is leaking from the top, and a thin layer has fallen on the bottom of the small vat-like bowl.
Hu Bayi looked up along the spot where the crystal sand fell. There was a blurry and unrecognizable black ghost mural.
"This is more like the Great Black Sky striking the Thunder Mountain we saw in the tunnel."
Hu Bayi said, his mind was very confused, looking at the evil ghost above, A bad thought came into my mind.
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
"From the moment I entered the cave, I found that this thing started to flow crystal sand inside.
Based on my appreciation and aesthetic appreciation of antiquities in the past few years, this thing can Panjiayuan sells it for a good price, or we...move it back and keep it as a souvenir?"
The fat man turned to Hu Bayi and said.
Zhang Haike beside him couldn't help but look at him with admiration. This crystal hourglass was obviously not a good thing.
After the time is up, I don’t know if anything dangerous will happen.
Even though death is imminent, I still want to sell it for money.
The relatives of the patriarch’s wife are really...appetizing to him.
"Maybe the crystal bowl will start timing after we enter the altar. If we haven't completed the ritual before the crystal sand fills the bowl, then I'm afraid the thunder mountain above will be released. "
Xue Liyang said and turned his attention to the black shadow ghost mural above.
"Judging from the current speed of quicksand and the size of the crystal bowl, we are left withThe time is no more than two and a half to three hours, and the cruel ritual must be completed within this time period. "
Zhang Haike stood up with a solemn expression.
Everyone fell into silence for a while.
Hu Bayi thought for a while and spoke.
"From the constant contact with the imaginary number space, the snake bone ghost cave and various religious legends along the way, I have a rough idea.
The exquisite Ghost Cave clan calls the bottomless pit where the snake god Zhu Jiuyin’s corpse is called the Ghost Cave.
People from the Demon Kingdom do not have this name, but call it snake bone. They think it is a snake god from an imaginary space and does not exist in our reality.
That abyss-like cave is the memory in the snake god's mind.
People from the Demon Kingdom believe that the world is a cycle of life and death. After the destruction of reality, another world will be born.
Such a series of destruction and birth will continue, and the snake bones will be resurrected in the world where they were born.
The Demon Kingdom hopes that through continuous life offerings, they can be resurrected in another world.
If we understand it from the perspective of the ancient Feng Shui of the flower-growing country and the unity of nature and man, there are also striking similarities.
The sky represents heaven, earth, and the world.
People represent human beings and various creatures and life.
In the unity of heaven and man, heaven and man do not exist independently.
Instead, it forms a complete world.
In the theory of the unity of nature and man, it is also proposed that although Yin and Yang are divided into two qi, Yin and Yang are also one and one is indispensable.
Yin and Yang are one, and there is a fusion point like the Bagua. For example, the S line in the middle of the Bagua is both a dividing line and a fusion point.
This fusion point is the Dragon Pill of the Zulong Earth Veins. The Dragon Pill buried deep at the bottom of Kunlun Mountain is where the vitality gathers. You can see the crystal veins above when you look up.
Some of these crystal veins have turned black, indicating that the lifespan of a dragon vein has expired.
Some of the light shone brightly, indicating that new dragon veins were born again.
It is the so-called replacement of life and death.
In the whole world, this is probably the only place where this rare phenomenon exists under the dragon roof.
This is also where yin and yang meet.
That’s why the people from the demon country built the altar at the critical position where the yin and yang cross in the dragon pill.
Although the ancients were ignorant and primitive, their understanding of Feng Shui of all things in nature was far deeper than that of modern people.
The curse of the ghost cave, whether it is a virus infected through the eyes, or a curse from an evil god.
The only way to eliminate it is to combine a cursed sacrificial corpse with the phoenix gallbladder, which is the Muchen Bead.
Press the opposite position and drop into the two pools to cut off the connection between them.
Altar wallIt is also said in the painting that this channel in the imaginary number space has been closed more than once.
After closing the channel with the imaginary number space, the ghost cave and the shadow of Evil Luohai City, including the eyeball marks on our bodies, will still exist.
But it has completely become a real thing in reality, so there is no harm.
Unless a new sacrificial ceremony is held.
However, this is the place where dragon veins gather. This altar cannot be damaged, otherwise it will have a huge impact on the landscape pattern.
It is difficult to estimate what consequences it will have. ”
