Chapter 227 offerings

Phoenix Dan was thrown into the cloud lake below Tianliang by Uncle Ming. I angrily pulled him off the stone statue and raised my fist to hit him, but before I could do it, I heard a cry: No, no,

There was no time. After saying that, I raised my head and stared at the crystal veins above my head. Axiang, who was sitting on the ground, and the fat man who had just taken shelter behind another stone man to avoid the gun, including Uncle Ming, who was pressed below me, also raised their heads.

, looking up.

This is a change in the light in the cave. The fluorescence originally coming from the ore above suddenly turned dark, and the surrounding area became dark. Although the invisible objects were not black, the figures close at hand already looked hazy.

It was blurry. When I saw their actions, I knew something must have happened to my head, so I held Uncle Ming down and looked up. From the ice wall-like crystal veins, countless crystals spread out, all at twisted angles.

There are clumps of icicles growing downward, like wind-forced ice vertebrae. Among these bizarre crystals, a huge black figure floats and squirms in the depths, making bursts of thunder-like movement, echoing repeatedly on the crystal wall, spreading out.

The ominous sounds and the appearance of black shadows diluted most of the cold fluorescence, and the environment in the cave became darker and darker.

The scene like black clouds looming over the city made the already very narrow altar space even more depressing. Listening to the rumbling sound above, the inexplicable sense of panic in the white tunnel reappeared in my heart. I couldn't help but wonder.

Said: What is it?

I was talking to myself, but I didn't expect that Uncle Ming, who was being held down by me, suddenly said: Brother Hu, this is the evil spirit sealed in the stone. It is about to come out of the stone. I'm afraid it will be real this time.

It's over, we won't be able to survive.

Only then did I remember what happened to Uncle Ming. When I heard that he actually had the nerve to talk to me, I suddenly felt angry. I thought that this old Hong Kong farmer had really raped me. Originally, I was discussing the altar with the fat man, although the situation was pressing.

, but there is still some time to think of a way. Although the killing ritual is very mysterious and ancient, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than changing the balance between yin and yang at the intersection of strings and arcs. If there is no accident, the remaining

In more than an hour, I might still have a chance to find out the secret. It is not destined to be a situation of death or life. No matter what kind of difficulties I faced this time when I went to Tibet, I never gave up my efforts, because Zhang Yingchuan’s opportunity

The numbers indicate that you can reach the middle path only when you encounter water. Something will happen on your westward journey this time, and you will be able to ford the great rivers. The solemn magic indicates again and again. I have no doubt about this, but how can I encounter water during this ceremony?

And the middle way was achieved, but in this case, what kind of way would there be in the water? I couldn't understand it for a while.

But I have no chance to understand the true meaning of it, because this Hong Kong farmer is so smart that in order to save his life, he actually cheated and robbed Phoenix of courage and blackmailed everyone, and wasted all our precious time.

, it was so abominable, what else could he do without him? So he raised his fist and wanted to beat him.

When Uncle Ming saw me taking action at my request, he was shocked like chaff. I have always been as cruel as winter towards my enemies, especially my moles, and remained unmoved at all. But my fist had not yet fallen. Uncle Ming's expression

Suddenly he changed, with a confused look on his face, he looked at me and said: Where is this, Brother Hu? What happened just now? I have an old problem. Sometimes I have split personality. Even what I just did and what I said are all gone.

I can't even remember if I made any mistakes just now.

I snorted coldly and stopped hitting him. I couldn't help but admire Uncle Ming in my heart. The old youtiao recognized opportunities very quickly and was much better at pretending to be stupid than Fatty and I. It would be a pity not to act in a movie.

There was no way I could really kill him, a beating wouldn't help, and there was no time to pay attention to him at this time. I looked up at the situation above again, and the black figure became clearer in the crystal.

It trembled slightly, and the muffled thunder in the air became more harsh. It really looked like some kind of demon trapped in the stone, and seemed to be struggling to crawl out.

I ignored Uncle Ming's pretense of madness and called the fat man over: I'll leave it to you, but just educate him, don't kill anyone. Also, if he gets even half a step closer to Phoenix Gut, just shoot him without saying a word.

The fat man stared at Uncle Ming and sat down on him, pressing him under him. He poked Uncle Ming's ribs with his fingers while cursing: Historical experience and past lessons have told us time and time again that if we are independent of the people, who the hell is it?

A scratch on his ribs would lead to a dead end.

I heard Uncle Ming scream like a ghost crying and howling because of the pain and itching, and then I felt that I was angry. If I didn't teach him a lesson, he would inevitably cause trouble in the future, so I no longer cared about how the fat man could save Uncle Ming's mistakes.

He quickly ran forward and said: Although we don’t know what the Great Black Sky Thunder Mountain is, once the thing above is really separated from the crystal consciousness, it will definitely not be able to deal with it with our current ability. But look,

According to the news above, we may still have some time left. I will go down and retrieve the phoenix gall bladder first.

Although I said so, I have only heard Fatty talk about what it looks like under the vast sea of ​​clouds and stone smoke. However, we can know that the terrain below is so complex that it is difficult to imagine. They are all mirror-like polygonal crystals and cannot be distinguished at all.

From left to right, a bead like a dragon's eye fell. The result can be imagined. It can't be found in a moment. Even the possibility of finding it again is very low, and the time is really too short.

It's urgent, but if you don't look for it, you won't even have a 1% chance.

I just saw a change in the crystal veins above my head. I immediately ran back to the heart of Yushan and looked at the situation of the crystal sand. Then I ran back to Tianliang and helped Axiang, who was sitting on the ground crying, up. After listening to what I said

After that, he immediately stopped me and said: It's too late, time has come to an end, it's too late, the crystal bowl has been filled with fine sand, and what if I find it back? Do you really want to kill Uncle Ming?

Now I just wanted to retrieve the phoenix courage as soon as possible. I ignored the dissuasion and insisted on jumping from the sky beam. But suddenly an incredible scene appeared in my eyes. I hurriedly said to me: Look, the stone smoke below seems to have changed.

.

In the hazy fluorescence, the white smoke, second only to the crystal dust, is gradually lowering its height; it seems that as the black figure above the head becomes larger, the stone smoke becomes thinner. We did not notice this change.

When did it happen? But now the thickness of the clouds and smoke is half a meter lower than before, and it is still decreasing, becoming gradually thinner.

In the gradually decreasing thickness of the clouds, half a dark round object emerged. It was exactly where the phoenix gall fell just now. And that thing was none other than the phoenix gall that mattered to the overall situation. This was a bit too much.

It's unbelievable. Is it really such a coincidence that a piece of crystal stone fell on the place where Uncle Ming threw it? It didn't roll to the depths. I can't believe that we have such good luck, but the fact is that

Put it in front of people, people can't help but not believe it.

I pinched my leg hard, and I saw everything clearly even if I wasn't dreaming. But at this time, the cloud layer continued to drop a very thin layer, and when we saw what was under the cloud, we couldn't help but feel our hearts beating wildly.

I saw a withered black arm motionlessly holding up the phoenix gallbladder. The half of the arm exposed from the clouds had completely lost its moisture, leaving only the shriveled skin wrapping the skeleton, and the skin turned black and purple.

I subconsciously reached out to touch the black donkey's hooves in my carry-on bag, and then I remembered that those things had been lost on the road. However, I immediately saw more and more shocking things revealed under the clouds and mist. In some places, heads were exposed, and there were

Arms and thighs sprouted from various places. Without exception, they were naked, dry, black and purple, and they were so densely packed that I couldn’t count how many there were. The white stone smoke became thicker as it went down, and the thinning began to slow down. I

When He saw this, he already understood in his heart that these mummies were thrown around Yushan after the sacrificial ceremony. Year after year, there were so many corpses that they piled up into a mountain. And the dead may have been dehydrated due to special dehydration.

Perhaps it was due to the geographical environment that it remained incorruptible through the ages; after the clouds thinned, it was gradually revealed. The place where Fatty and Uncle Ming fell was near the entrance of the tunnel, but they only saw countless strange crystals.

Obviously, the mummies used as sacrifices were thrown on both sides of Jade Mountain.

I was so surprised when I saw the phoenix gall landed in the hand of a mummy high up. I immediately jumped down from the sky beam, planning to step on the mountain of corpses to retrieve the pearl. It was less than one meter deep under the sky beam.

It was already piled with mummies, and I stepped on them, causing the corpses below to slide down one after another. I didn’t even bother to look at the mummies, and kept my eyes on the phoenix gall, fearing that it would fall from the top of the mountain of corpses.

Roll down; if it falls into the cracks of the corpse pile, it will be a hundred times harder to find than falling into the crystal stone.

I was a little nervous when I stepped on a large number of mummies exposed in the clouds. I didn't pay attention to the situation under my feet. I stepped on the skull of a mummy and actually stepped on the head. The skull of the mummy was dry, hard and very slippery.

, his foot slipped on it, and he suddenly lost his center of gravity and fell down, falling on a female mummy.

The two dark eye sockets on the shriveled face of the female corpse looked huge. I was startled. I cursed inwardly at the bad luck. I pressed down on the messy pile of mummies and wanted to get up and continue to get the phoenix gall bladder, but I couldn't keep my eyes away.

That female corpse because I suddenly thought, no, these mummies are not sacrifices, their skin has not been peeled off. Just now I was just staring at the phoenix gallbladder, and there was nothing else in my eyes. Because of the fall, I was slightly distracted.

, only then did I notice this detail. Moreover, in this mountain of mummies, every one of them, regardless of gender, old or young, has a common feature. Of course, it is not that they are not wearing clothes. The clothes have probably decayed into ashes. All the mummies have been gouged out.

Eyes removed.

The thunder above my head was getting louder and louder, like bursts of life-threatening spells. I knew that there was not much time left for us. Fortunately, after the crystal sand flowed out, it would still take some time for the Mahakala Thunder Mountain to fully reveal itself. This was quite a long time.

Since the God of Death has left us a glimmer of hope, what we have to do now is to race against death.

Seeing the two large dark black holes on the face of the female corpse, I also wondered what the relationship between so many mummies and the altar was. Although I vaguely felt that something was wrong here, I quickly crawled over and took out the phoenix guts.

The idea of ​​bringing them back has completely occupied most of my thoughts at the moment. I have no time to think carefully about the merits of these mummies. I don't care about the nausea of ​​crawling in the mountain of corpses. I only think about the phoenix gallbladder. This is a kind of psychological pressure.

Due to the extreme emotions generated under full load conditions, I can no longer control my actions.

But the more anxious I became, the more I couldn't get up. No matter how hard I tried to hold up my arms or legs, I couldn't exert any strength. My hands and feet were stuck among the layers of mummies. I was so anxious that I was covered in sweat. Maybe it had something to do with the black shadow above my head.

When I saw it, I felt an inexplicable panic. Maybe it was really some kind of evil spirit that existed in the ore. I was thinking wildly, and my hands and feet were trapped by the limbs of the mummies. I was anxiously jumping from the ceiling.

She jumped down and helped me up. I said to her: These mummies are not sacrifices and have not been skinned.

It is said that everyone has their eyelids cut off, and a pair of human eyes can be gouged out to complete the ritual of offering sacrifices to the ghost cave.

This sentence was like an important reminder. I immediately took another look at the mummy at my feet. Sure enough, the eyelids had been cut off from the brow bone. I suddenly woke up. No need to elaborate, I already understood what she meant.

, murals depicting murder rituals, scenes flashed through my mind like a movie. In the first scene of skinning, the priest held down the head of the sacrifice and started to cut from the forehead with a sharp instrument, because I had heard of skinning before.

Human skins are also cut from the head with a Ksari knife, so it is inevitable to have preconceptions. In addition, the execution pit is so bloody that it makes me want to vomit after looking at it for a few more times. So in a hurry, I mistakenly thought that the action in the mural was skinning.

In fact, judging from the mummies piled up in the hills, the action in the mural refers to peeling off the eyelids. With this premise, the following content is naturally easy to solve. What is to be done in the human-shaped stone trough,

It is a mural that completely removes the eyes of the sacrifice, and the priest holds the corpse and puts it into the altar. The corpse in the painting is very blurry. We mistakenly thought it was a corpse bleeding all over the body, but now that I think about it, the shape is blurry.

The corpse should be used to represent the life attached to the eyeballs, and the sacrifice with the eyes gouged out was brutally killed and abandoned near the altar. Over the years, it has grown to its current astonishing scale.

As long as we sacrifice a pair of human eyes that have been assimilated by the ghost cave, the curse can be lifted. But when we came in from the white tunnel, we were blindfolded all the way and groped in the darkness, knowing full well that losing sight would lead to endless darkness.

She was so panicked and helpless. If she had to gouge out her eyes, I don’t know if it would be better to just die. Who else would be willing to give up my own eyes, but of course I can’t let her do this. At worst, I will make Uncle Ming guilty and meritorious service. But if I do this

I definitely wouldn't agree to it, but compared to skinning and killing people, gouging out the eyes was already a half-price discount, and I felt refreshed at the thought.

These thoughts flashed through my mind, but my body did not stop acting because of these chaotic thoughts. I finally got close to the phoenix gallbladder in the hands of a mummy, but I acted too hastily and committed the taboo of wanting more than I want. The last one

He jumped out and wanted to grab the phoenix gallbladder. Unexpectedly, the hill made of mummies was piled up. Since a large number of mummies were thrown from the sky beam and were not piled intentionally, many places inside the hill were empty. If there was any external force,

When the force was applied, the hill made of mummies fell apart, just like a mountain collapse and a landslide. A large piece collapsed at the edge. Seeing that the phoenix guts in the mummy's hands were about to collapse, it was about to roll away with several nearby corpses.

Fall down.

I yelled and rushed forward. While catching the phoenix guts, I rolled down the collapsed edge of the corpse mountain together with the mummies who had lost their support. The distance from here to the crystal mineral layer below was not high, and we rolled down five or six meters.

The depth stopped, and before I could get up from the ground, I looked at the phoenix gallbladder in my hand. I actually held it in my hand, and then it started to grow, and I finally took it back.

At this time, the white stone smoke around me has become extremely thin, and the rest is like clouds floating away. The crystal veins around me are fluorescent, and the terrain is almost completely symmetrical with the top of my head, as if it is reflected in a mirror.

Countless mummies fell down and covered the ground, so they were not easily affected by the ice wall-like crystal surface. I raised my head and looked above my head. The world was really overturned, the wind and clouds were changing color, and the huge black shadow was twisting and elongating.

The whole thing is stretched out, and it can no longer be seen as a human shape. It is like a black and broken black wind horse flag, slowly rotating in the crystal. Looking at the shape, it actually looks like a black eye socket, with turbulence in it.

More than that, it seems like water is dripping from the Jade Mountain.

Standing on the edge of the corpse mountain, he was desperately calling Axiang and others on the sky beam to leave quickly. The fat man pulled Axiang and Uncle Ming and jumped from the sky beam to the pile of corpses below. He stumbled and ran while shouting: The altar cannot be used.

I'm stunned. Run away, comrades.

I still couldn't see clearly what they saw, but I felt a chill in my heart. Although I had recovered the phoenix gallbladder, it was too late after all, and I might not be able to return to the altar. I suddenly had an impulse and planned to

I risked my life and rushed back, but what about my eyes? Whose eyes should I use to gouge out Uncle Ming's, or should I use my own?

At this time, I suddenly heard the sound of water lapping against the stone wall. I quickly looked back and saw a large underground hole in a cluster of crystal veins not far away. The water in it was dyed red with blood. That hole we

We had seen the old white-bearded fish in the wind-eroded lake, and we fell into the underground lake with it. Although the underground water veins are crisscrossed like a network, we really didn't expect to see it again here.

The old white-bearded fish was stranded on the edge of the water. Although it was still alive, it was only a matter of time before it died. Its whole body was covered with wounds caused by bites and impacts. The fish's mouth opened and closed, and it kept spitting out blood blisters.

Blood gushed out, and two beads-like objects spit out from his mouth, falling to the ground.

Although there were bloodstains on the two beads, I could still tell that they were the eyes of the Ghost Mother Glacier Crystal Corpse. There was no more suitable sacrifice than it. There was no end to it. I stood up immediately.

, I wanted to pick up the eyeballs on the ground, but the crystal layer under my feet was slippery than the ice. I leaned forward and slipped again. The two crystal eyeballs of the ghost mother were also sliding into the water with their cheeks. Although I was only one step away from them.

It was too far away, but it was too late to stand up, and I couldn't reach it with my hands. I watched helplessly as they rolled towards the water's edge. Once they fell in, everything would be over.

In desperation, I had no choice but to take risks. I casually pulled out the mountaineering pick, placed it flat on the crystal layer and pushed it toward the front of the eyeballs. Although it was a desperate move, it was not wrong at all. Finally, before the pair of eyeballs rolled into the water.

, blocked them back, before my hanging heart fell to the ground, I saw the two crystal eyes slowly rolling towards the side with a higher slope. In the gap between the two crystal ores on the opposite side, there was a black and white pattern.

The striped dragon squeezed out a big blood-filled mouth from it. It was glaring with greedy blood-red eyes. It inhaled hard, swallowed the stench of the airflow, and sucked the pair of eyes into its belly. Book Alliance
