The skinless yak head suddenly started to move. Fortunately, the fat man and I were mentally prepared in advance. The fat man raised his gun and wanted to shoot. In my haste, I saw that although the bull head was weird, it had no intention of harming us.
So he stopped the fat man first and took a closer look at what was going on with the yak head.
When the yaks were alive, they were first skinned alive and then slaughtered. We have seen this behavior in the murals of the Samsara Temple. This is not surprising. As an ancient inheritance, it symbolizes the release of the soul first.
, so you can eat it with confidence.
It turns out that there is a large wooden fence in this slaughterhouse that can hold the cow in the middle. Both sides can be telescopically moved forward and backward. In this way, the cow is trapped in it and cannot exert any brute force, so the butcher can slaughter it at will.
The yak's head was caught in the bloody wooden fence. The skin of the yak's body had not been peeled off, but its tail was still there. In front of the headless, empty cavity, there fell a heavy ax used to chop off the head of the yak. We
The cow head that I saw was hung in the air by a rope, and the cow's eyes were still moving. It seemed that the moment the cow's head had just been chopped off, the time here suddenly froze and stopped passing, and the yak was always fixed.
The moment before its signs of life disappeared.
It is very common in the biological world that the body is separated but the signs of life do not disappear within seconds or even minutes. After the head of a chicken is chopped off, the headless chicken body can still run on its own for a while. In ancient times, there was
After the executioner's head is beheaded, if someone calls the executioner's name as soon as the head falls to the ground, his head will still react. This is because the nerves have not died yet.
But that only happened for a moment. From the time Fatty and I found the yak head that was not dead until now. It has always maintained that appearance between life and death. Could it be that it has been stopped like this for thousands of years?
It was this unlucky big yak. Every plant and tree in the entire Evil Luohai City, including the lit lamps, unfinished works, the slaughtered yak, the cooked beef, and the undried bloody fingerprints on the stone door, were all fixed in this
Those last few seconds, and there was not even a single figure in the entire empty city. Is all this related to the disaster that destroyed the Evil Luohai City? What kind of disaster was that? It has such terrifying power.
Thinking that what we just ate may be beef that has been cooked in a pot for thousands of years, we can't help but feel nauseated. All the phenomena in this city are really unbelievable. It is safer to evacuate outside the city first and wait until dawn tomorrow before entering the honeycomb.
The main city, so the fat man and I called the superiors, took our things and walked back the way we came.
I raised my head and glanced at the sky. Night had fallen long ago, but the light in this Erluohai City was still the same as when I first appeared here. It was like being in dusk. Although there were many lights, it looked very hazy.
In a daze, maybe even the light when the ancient city was destroyed has stayed forever. If Axiang hadn't confirmed it, he would have thought it was a ghost town.
As I walked, I briefly explained the situation in the slaughterhouse to myself, but I thought that this place was not as simple as being lost outside the track of time. For example, the beef cooked in the pot was indeed overcooked and delicious. If it was eaten up, it would not be able to eat it.
Reappearing, everything in the city is fixed at a certain time period. If it is not affected by external forces, it will never change. The sky outside changes from dim to pitch black, and the time on the watch is also normal. This shows that around us
Time still passes normally, and there is another point that is most easily overlooked. Things in Evil Luohai City are not static. It can only be said that they permanently retain a specific form and are by no means frozen in time.
Therefore, the idea of chaos caused by time and space can be temporarily ruled out, but it is still impossible to know the cause of this phenomenon. For the convenience of naming, let’s call the eternity-like moment in Eluohai City a complete stop.
The mysterious ancient city is here, showing that it is unknown.
If you want to solve the mystery of the sky, you must find out what happened in Evil Luohai City at the last moment. You still need to wait until dawn and go into the city to see if there are any changes before you can further confirm. Maybe deep in the Beehive Castle, you can find out what happened.
Find the answers to the truth.
I was confused by the weird things in this ancient city, and I couldn't figure it out. I even wanted to go crazy. After listening to her analysis, I found that her thinking was very clear. It seems that people are better than others, so compare goods.
I have to throw it away, but maybe I have been made to be a leader all my life, so I don’t have the brains to be a staff officer.
We climbed back from the outer edge of the city wall to the green rocks beside the wind-eroded lake, and looked back at the Eluohai City in the night. It was quietly sunk underground, still flashing with countless lights, but the light in the city was still as dim as dusk.
Come tomorrow morning, the city is still like this.
After running back and forth, Uncle Ming and Axiang were exhausted. Since there were spotted dragons in the forest, we didn't dare to go down to the rock, so we had to find a sheltered place to rest on the green rock. We were going to rest until dawn, so we entered the main building.
Check out the city to find out.
So we took turns to keep vigil. When it dawned the next day, I had already woken up and was looking at the Bible map we found from the Reincarnation Temple. The clouds above my head were thick, and the sunlight shone through the gaps in the clouds.
It was not enough. It was very dark in the valley surrounded by cliffs and steep peaks. The Evil Luohai City under the rock seemed to be completely isolated from the world. It remained the same. The lights in the city were shining, but it was surprisingly quiet. The whole city stayed there.
She said that she had a hunch that if the secret could not be found today, I am afraid that everyone would never be able to leave the valley behind the door of disaster. This place was in a desperate situation.
I know that this map is very damaged. It was a Portuguese priest who stole the secrets of the Samsara Sect. He wanted to dig for treasures, but before he could go, the priest was killed due to religious conflicts. We still can't tell what is in the map.
Is the mapped terrain the Land of the Dapeng Bird or the Phoenix Temple? I asked if there was any new discovery now.
Said: Comparing it with the nearby terrain, it can be concluded that the Bible map is the map of the Phoenix Temple's Eluohai City. However, despite our best efforts, we can only restore less than 30% of the drawings secretly drawn by the Portuguese priest, and
It's still a piece of land in the east and a piece in the west, not connected to each other. However, if time permits, I can complete the missing parts of the map based on the environment here.
If we have a map of the ancient city, even if only a part of it is used as a reference, it will definitely be a great help to us. I cheered up, woke up the fat uncle Ming and Axiang one by one, and took out the few remaining foods.
It was distributed to everyone for breakfast. After eating this meal, there was no reserve left. Apart from going to the lake to fish, the only choice was to go to the city to cook beef.
When we entered the city again, Uncle Ming discussed with me that instead of entering the city, we might as well go over the mountains and find a way out. Since the ancient city was so weird, why bother taking risks?
I pretended not to hear, thinking about how hard the fat man and I had worked to find the source of the phoenix courage. How could we give up so easily when we finally got here? We would rather die in front of the formation than behind it. We immediately walked a few steps quickly.
Entered the city first.
Except for the things we touched, the rest of the things remained unchanged. Even the light mist in the city was still the same. The fat man went directly to the slaughterhouse and cut a few large pieces of fresh yak meat for later use.
Last night, I wanted to wait until dawn to clearly see the structure of the tall honeycomb before heading straight towards Huanglong, but the light in the city was still dim. When I looked up from the nest, the lights in the main city seemed to be quietly attached to the honeycomb.
Thousands of fireflies and the atmosphere give people a sense of coercion and urgency.
Only half of the large hive was exposed above, and the larger part was deep underground. According to the values of the Demon Kingdom, all important authority institutions should be underground, so we walked around the city and found the largest hole to enter the inside of the hive.
, the holes inside are densely packed and the structure is complex, just like a honeycomb ant nest, making people wonder whether the residents inside are humans or insects.
I think back in the late 1960s and early 1970s, when the country was digging deep holes to accumulate grain, the reactionaries who fled abroad maliciously attacked us and said that we are the masters of the country. Otherwise, why would the whole country follow suit and dig holes for this kind of civil air defense?
I have also dug facilities, but they are a bit insignificant compared to the underground Eluohai City. Maybe many of these holes exist naturally, otherwise it would be difficult to imagine such a project with the manpower and equipment at that time.
We looked for the largest passage and headed underground. The passage here and the caves on both sides were illuminated by lights. Every time we walked forward, she used a pen to write down the terrain on paper. She sketched very quickly, walking all the way.
Without wasting too much time, I drew a simple and practical route map.
From time to time, I used a wolf-eye flashlight to shine on the cave houses on both sides. Most of the cave houses without lights were empty. There were also many cockroaches larger than mice gathered in some caves and damp places. I used the butt of my gun to smash them.
None of them can be killed. The deeper you go, the fewer the number of burrows, but the scale becomes larger and larger.
At the end of the underground city of Nest City, there are two large virtual stone doors. There is also a door opening on the left and right sides of the passage. Two gems, one blue and one white, are embedded in the door openings. Use a flashlight to shine inside. The hole on the left
Inside, there are tens of square meters, with a very high dome. There is a stone statue of a ghost head in the depths. The ghost head has an ugly and ferocious face, and a row of seven-star ladybug patterns are carved below. There are weak butter lamps burning in the four corners.
On the ground in the middle, there were two steamed sacrifices, a black cow and a white horse, side by side. The things in the doorway on the other side were similar.
Pulling out the Bible map, one of the fragments showed the two locations of Ice Palace, which were exactly the same as here. However, the place inside the big stone gate at the end of the passage that should be marked on the map was the part that was damaged and lost.
On the edge of the missing Bible map, you can see a pattern similar to animal bones. Remember that there are similar patterns on the bottom layer of the crystal tiles of the Black Tiger Mysterious Altar of the Samsara Sect. Are these bones related to the disappearance of all humans in the Evil Luohai City?
With all kinds of questions, I pushed open the stone door at the end. As soon as I entered, I immediately felt a chill that penetrated my heart and lungs. I thought that the evil atmosphere in this hall was quite strong, it was dark and cool, and it was completely different from the environment on the floors above.
It was different. What I saw was a jeweled temple. However, although there were many lights in the temple, they were all very dim. The temple was so deep that it was difficult to see clearly what was going on inside.
At this time, Fatty and I also followed me into the stone gate. I was about to go forward, but suddenly I felt something was missing. When I turned around, I found that Uncle Ming and Axiang were standing outside and did not follow me. I greeted them: Let's go.
What are you waiting for?
Ah Xiang hid behind Uncle Ming and whispered to Uncle Ming quietly. Uncle Ming's face was full of panic when he heard this. I felt more and more strange, so I walked back and asked them what the hell they were doing.
Uncle Ming suddenly pulled out a pistol and pointed it at me: Don't come here, don't come here, I'll shoot you if you come here again. There's something lying on his back. Shumeng
