After walking along the long and narrow passage for a few dozen meters, you saw a large artificially carved stone platform, about 6 meters high.
Following dozens of wide steps, Xiao Ran walked to the large stone platform, which covered an area of more than 100 square meters. There was a stone pit with a diameter of 3 meters in the center, and a huge fire gushes out of the pit.
The flame is 5 meters high and 2 meters in diameter. It is quite spectacular when viewed up close. No wonder such a big fire can be seen from far away.
Xiao Ran looked towards the bottom of the flame and saw no firewood or coal.
Black liquid gushed out of the stone pit, and it smelled pungent like rotten eggs. Got it.
It's oil.
There are pipes inside the stone platform leading to underground oil wells, so the fire can continue to burn.
The never-extinguishing fire in the ancient cave can attract the worship of countless believers. To put it bluntly, the underground oil will never burn out.
Many of the beliefs of ancient people have been exposed, and they are just so ridiculous.
The thick flames are enough to withstand the severe cold of dozens of degrees below zero.
Being close to the fire, the temperature rises a lot and it feels very comfortable.
However, Xiao Ran didn't come here to keep warm.
He has an energy field barrier and a skin suit. The double protection makes him not afraid of ultra-low temperatures.
Temperatures of minus 90 degrees Celsius or even lower can't stop his progress.
He came to kill people.
Evil superpowers will kill every one they see and will never leave any trouble behind.
At this time, he heard slight and rapid breathing and a heartbeat.
Came from behind the fire.
Behind the huge flame, there is a person, a living person.
Good guy!
This man had been hiding secretly behind the fire, holding his breath and not speaking, and even his heartbeat stopped beating for a minute.
Exactly one minute has passed since Xiao Ran walked in to observe and think about it.
People who can control their heartbeat still have certain abilities.
Xiao Ran walked around the flames and saw.
A man wearing a white linen gown, a white hat, and a woolen belt wrapped around his belly knelt on the ground and prayed.
He looks like an ancient priest.
The camera worn on Xiao Ran's chest displayed this person's image on the light screen.
The girls were surprised.
Why did someone appear suddenly?
Especially Xiao Ru screamed and asked if this man was a ghost? He said he looked like Bai Wuchang in Journey to the West. The only difference was the shape of his hat. Bai Wuchang's hat was pointed, while this man's hat was
Cylindrical.
"Look clearly, Xiao Ru, he is a foreigner with a red beard. There is no such thing as Bai Wuchang in the world of foreigners." Yuchen said, and then asked Regina, "Is he the Duke of Sparks?"
"Yes, he is Duke Spark!"
Regina gave a definite answer.
Wow, what is this guy doing here by pretending to be a ghost?
The only possibility is.
Same as the Yellow Witch.
Duke Spark has set a trap here, waiting for Xiao Ran to take the bait.
Just him, or just one person?
The girls burst into laughter.
…
"Hello." Xiao Ran took the initiative to say hello in English.
He did not take off his silver helmet.
Cannot be picked.
A combination of cold and heat can arouse the disease.
Moreover, he must be ready to meet the enemy's challenges at any time.
Redbeard slowly turned his head and stared at Xiao Ran with a complicated expression.
He looks like he is nearly 50 years old. The bulging forehead shows that he has a relatively developed brain and loves to think about problems. The bulging temples show that he has sufficient energy and deep internal strength. The dark skin shows that he is a person who stays in the fire all year round.
The people on the other side, the smoke and fire will forcibly roast a white person into a brown person, but if you want to become as dark as Director Donald, it will take several years of roasting.
"Hello, strange traveler, what makes you walk alone in the desolate desert on such a cold night?"
Redbeard said in fluent English, his voice was desolate, hoarse but very powerful, echoing in the ancient cave.
"Oh my god, Duke Spark is really good at pretending!" Regina couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Hahaha, yes, yes," Yuchen laughed to death, "Mark, Marburg, Donald, Lightning Flying Man, Yellow Witch, oh my, which one is not a born actor!?"
That's how it goes.
It's ridiculous when you know the details of a person, but that person thinks you know nothing and pretends to be a weird character!
What's even more ridiculous is that he is no match for Brother Xiao Ran, but Mantis blocks the car and challenges him over his own abilities. It turns into a humorous drama.
The girls picked up snacks and ate while watching, as if they were watching a show.
According to past experience, the eldest brother will deal with the enemy for a while, exchange words, warm up the fire, and finally send this guy to hell.
Xiao Ran chuckled.
"I really didn't expect that the Sahara Desert would be as cold as minus 90 degrees Celsius... In such a desolate desert, it feels even more strange to see a person guarding a fire alone."
Red Beard didn't smile, he stared at Xiao Ran indifferently, his face was like a stone sculpture.
"We live in a strange world. Young man, my name is Maggie, and I am the guardian of the Fire of Victory. I guard the oldest fire in the world, which has never been extinguished for thousands of years."
"Oh, Maggie." Xiao Ran thought it was funny that Duke Spark gave himself a nondescript name. He asked curiously, "What is the origin of the Fire of Victory?"
"It's a long story. You don't understand anything, so it's better not to say it."
Duke Starfire shook his head and said.
This made Xiao Ran a little depressed. Just imagine how he felt.
He returned to ancient times from the future, and in a mysterious ancient cave, he met a strange middle-aged man who actually said he didn't understand anything??
Xiaoru laughed.
"Whether this guy is called Maggie or Duke Spark, I think he is a complete fool. When he sees my omniscient and omnipotent master, he will not kneel down to ask for advice, but he will look down upon others.
Are you tired of living?"
"Maggie is Duke Spark. One person has two names, just like a younger sister." Regina pointed out with a smile, "Forgive his ignorance. I wasn't like that. I looked down on my eldest brother when I first met him.
It’s so embarrassing to say.”
"Yeah, me too." Yao smiled bitterly, unable to look back on the past.
Yuchen thought to himself, what do you mean? I misunderstood Xiao Ran a few years ago and even pinched a lot of blood marks on his body! But I dare not say this, because if I tell the sisters, they will definitely hate her.
As if Xiao Ran had no historical burden, she regarded Xiao Ran as a god from the beginning, a fairy brother, and it was so sweet to call him.
Xiao Ran originally wanted to fight quickly, but when he heard what Duke Xinghuo said, he sat cross-legged by the fire and said with a smile.
"Master Magi, young people really don't know much, so please give me some advice."
This kind of humbly asking for advice was very useful to Duke Spark. It didn't matter whether he started early or late. Anyway, x had fallen into a trap. You might as well impart some divine wisdom to him before he died.
So Duke Xinghuo sat upright and asked Xiao Ran seriously.
"Young man, let me ask you a question first. Do you think it was a good force or an evil spirit that created this world?"
Halo, this is an extremely profound philosophical question involving the origin of the universe.
