Qiao Ye didn't try to touch the things on the table. Of course, Qiao Ye's thoughts were on the monster at the moment.
However, the table and the dishes and fruits on the table gave off a strange feeling, so Qiao Ye couldn't help but look at it a few times.
Slowly moving forward, Qiao Ye approached the monster. The monster seemed to be in a state of intoxication or dead, and showed no reaction at all to Qiao Ye's approach.
Qiao Ye took a deep breath, then took out her fingers and put them under the monster's nostrils, trying to detect the monster's breath.
Qinggui and the others also looked at Qiao Ye with sharp eyes, waiting for Qiao Ye's answer.
After a while, Qiao Ye took his hand back, and then waved his hand towards Qing Gui.
Qinggui said: "Dead?"
Qiao Ye said: "It should be dead. There is no breathing. You can try it yourself."
Qing Gui stepped forward and probed under the monster's nostrils. As expected, there was no breath. To be cautious, Qing Gui carefully checked the monster's pulse.
This trick may not work well, after all, the opponent doesn't look like a human, but at least the general structure of the body is the same as that of a human, so it might work.
Therefore, after checking the pulse, Aoki pressed his hand on the other person's chest, where the heart was, trying to feel the heartbeat.
After a while, Qing Gui breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "She must be dead!"
This hall doesn't look very big, and the only unknown danger seems to be the monster in front of me. Since it is certain that this monster is probably dead, Aoki has entered the state of doing his duty again.
"Check this room." Qing Gui said decisively: "Don't leave the walls, decorations, tables and chairs down. Check to see if there are any hidden compartments and the like, and try not to make too much noise."
The three world mystics immediately took action, took out things from the space treasures, and then started to work.
Green Ghost was also wandering in the living room, looking at everything around him.
Qiao Ye watched for a while, then walked over and said, "Did you find anything?"
Qinggui said: "There are some, but they are not very important. For example, this place should have been built underground."
Qiao Ye asked doubtfully: "Huh?"
Qinggui pointed at the roof and said: "This mainly depends on the style of the roof. You should know what a normal roof looks like..."
As Aoki said this, he made a spire with his hands.
Qinggui said: "Even if you are lucky and there is no collapse after being buried, the appearance of the roof will not change. You can also infer one or two things from the style of the roof."
Qiao Ye said: "It's hard to say. This is not an ordinary house, with wooden beams and tile roofs. It should be a huge stone palace. Half of the stone palace has a flat roof."
"Yes!" Qinggui said with a smile: "However, the load-bearing method of the roof is different. The general stone palace does not have this kind of load-bearing structure, but..."
Qinggui stretched out his hand and made a few gestures, then showed a look of helplessness.
"Do you really want me to tell you how to build a house?" Qinggui said, "This really cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences."
Qiao Ye smiled and said: "You are a professional, you have the final say, but even if the house should have been built underground, so what?"
Qinggui said: "The problem is that the maze of ruins we discovered must be a stone palace, and based on the structure of the roof, it is definitely not an underground palace."
"But now we are underground." Qiao Ye said: "Have we left the maze of ruins?"
Qinggui said: "That's not necessarily true. Maybe part of the palace is underground, but in general, such changes are worth thinking about, but they are not important."
Qinggui said as he walked around the hall.
Qinggui said: "There are no calligraphy, paintings, books, or furnishings here. Those things are very valuable and can often be used to infer a lot of things. The only current doubt is the monster, and the things here don't look old.
, especially the latter, very weird!”
Qiao Ye nodded, he also noticed.
"ah!"
At this time, a scream suddenly sounded, and a world mystic fell to the ground and knocked over a chair.
Qing Gui and Qiao Ye immediately turned around, Qing Gui said: "What's wrong?"
The world mystic said: "I wanted to pick up the dish to see if there was anything underneath, but when I took the dish away, the monster suddenly moved."
Aoki looked at the monster, still maintaining its previous posture, and there didn't seem to be anything strange about it.
But, at this moment...
Click!
There was a crisp sound of bones shaking, and the monster's shoulders moved visibly.
Almost instantly, everyone dispersed in all directions.
The monster did move!
First, the position of the shoulders slowly squirmed. Along with the squirming, the sound of bones would continue to be heard, and then the two arms placed on the table gradually lifted up a little.
at last……
Those closed eyes, the eyelids kept trembling slightly.
Qiao Ye and Qing Gui looked at each other, with the same meaning in their eyes: Aren't they dead?
Qiao Ye and Qing Gui both checked the corpse, and there was indeed no sound. It should have been dead, but now the monster was moving!
Slowly, the drooped eyelids opened bit by bit, revealing a pair of dark red eyes.
"The taste of humanity!"
A low and hoarse voice suddenly sounded.
The monster opened its eyes, its head shrugged, as if it was sniffing something, and then its eyes kept turning.
Suddenly, the monster's mouth seemed to be sewn shut and did not open. However, the hoarse voice sounded again, with incomparable anger, almost roaring: "It's a human being, damn a human being, who will kill me."
Let me out, you hear me? Let me out!"
The monster's voice was extremely angry, and then it stood up directly.
There was a huge roar on the ground, and the moment the monster got up, the food and fruits on the table began to decay at a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye, and the color gradually dimmed without any luster.
, then the fruits began to shrivel, the dishes began to smell foul, and then gradually turned into residue, and finally became like fly ash, disappearing without a trace.
The candlelight around them kept swaying, and cracks gradually appeared on the walls. The tables and chairs around them were no longer so smooth, as if they had lost their patina, and suddenly became old, with signs of mold, and some
crack.
If time in this space seemed to be stuck in the past, then time now seems to be back on track.
