Chapter 74: Maze
Different from the labyrinth around the lower underground palace of Tongyu Ridge, the labyrinth here is larger in scale, formed by staggered water walls one person high, but the water will not overflow, and it is full of thick black.
Cheng Wanshi recalled a story: Lord Fuchi once tried to match palace people with beasts, so as to observe what kind of children would be born.Some children died as soon as they were born, and some half-human, half-beast survived unexpectedly, were raised by kind people, and hid in the maze underground that was originally used to raise merman.Lord Fuchi naturally knew about this, and he liked to watch them kill each other for pleasure.
The one in front of him seemed to be the labyrinth under the legendary palace.
"It turns out that the main tomb is..." Cheng Wanshi said in a low voice. No wonder the man in black didn't know. He probably didn't guess that the main tomb was under his feet. It was hidden under the palace. The safety of the deepest tomb.Perhaps, he thought that the four suspicious tombs were built last, and the location of the main tomb was a secret at first...
Since Jiang Fengbai has merged with the soul of the man in black, it should have a deterrent effect on the things in the maze. After all, these things were created by him back then.
The translucent waterway casts shadows, and the gaps are not only very dark, but also very cold, filled with a sense of gloom, and even the long-burning lights along the way cannot drive away the lingering darkness.Cheng Wanshi cautiously chose an entrance, and started to turn left. From time to time, he heard a deep roar, and he didn't know whether it was far or near, but it was always in his ears, haunting.The further you go in, the lower the terrain and the darker it becomes. Cheng Wanshi can't help but feel flustered. It's an illusion that was forcibly implanted in his heart. It should be because of the arrangement of formations here.
The ever-burning light suddenly went out.
All around fell into darkness.
"Shusha...Shusha..." The voice began to come from not far away.It seemed that something was crawling towards him, unlike the mummy before, it was getting closer.
Cheng Wanshi leaned against the wall subconsciously, walked forward with his waist bent, seemed to hear something, stopped suddenly, and waited——
That thing was still crawling, and in an instant, it showed its head at the corner, it was actually a big frog with a human face, it couldn't jump, but it kept crawling, its tongue was thicker than Wanshi's waist, dragged on the ground There was a sound of "rustling... rustling...".
Both of its eyes were blood red, and its whole body was covered with pustules filled with venom. Occasionally, a few of them burst open, splashing the venom, and the ground was scorched black in an instant.It seemed to like the feeling of sufficient water vapor. It stuck out its tongue and touched the water wall, and the blue-black color of its body became more intense.
As for the back, it is obviously a man's face, not printed on it, but a human face embedded in it, slightly raised, with complete features.Only this face was free of pustules and looked very smooth, even handsome.The man's face couldn't move freely, and his narrow and long eyes looked around as much as possible, revealing joyful emotions.
Cheng Wanshi hid it very well, and with a flick of the dagger in his hand, it happened to cut off most of the frog's exposed tongue.The opponent's blood was also green, more poisonous than the venom in the pustules. It roared, the blood scorched everything around it, and made a "ZiZi—" sound, which made people feel chills down their backs.
The man's face was also distorted to the point of ferocity, the originally handsome eyebrows and eyes were ruined by the pain, leaving only anger.
Small pits soon appeared on the ground, all of which were corroded.
"Tsk." Cheng Wanshi wanted to cut the human face directly, that was its weakness, just like a butterfly with a human face.As a result, its hand strength was insufficient, or its spiritual power was slightly lacking, so it just cut off its tongue.As a result, this angered the frog and made it even more difficult to deal with.
At this time, there was a roaring sound from behind him. It turned out that it was a crossroads, and a monster with a bull's head and human body heard the frog's roar and ran over.It was on all fours, muscular all over, very strong.The bull's head was not a hood, but a natural one that grew on his neck. It was shaking slightly and blowing white air from its nose.
The frog's attention was immediately attracted, and Cheng Wanshi took the opportunity to hide in the dark, minimizing his presence.The tauren seemed to have a grudge against it, and they fought as soon as they met - the frog flicked half of its tongue, and the venom splashed on its body; One of his legs was twisted off abruptly.
"Hohohoooooooooooooooooooo"
"Moo-"
The constant crashing and shouting made Cheng Wanshi even more irritable. He hurriedly ran past the fighting monster without attracting the opponent's attention at all.
After he left, the human face on the frog's back was smashed by the bull's head, and the bull's neck was also entangled tightly by the long tongue. It seemed that he was dying to fight back, and the strength was so great that the bull's head was silent soon.
In addition to these two kinds of monsters, there are other monsters in the labyrinth, such as the giant salamanders or mermans I have seen before, and some people who are covered in dark black, but their hands are the claws of big crabs, and they can crush the merman's flesh with one clamp. Tail clipped...
Not only did he have to deal with monsters, but he also had to find the right exit. After encountering dead ends many times, Cheng Wanshi became obviously impatient and took a deep breath.Suddenly, he noticed some tiny symbols under the water wall, because it was the same color as the black water, so he didn't notice it at first. "This is—!" He was surprised to find that these were all used to indicate the direction. They looked like small stone tablets soaked in the water wall, and they could only be found if they got close.
Following the guidance of the symbols, he quickly walked out of the maze, with the wailing and roaring of monsters still behind him.There is only one exit in the maze, but there are many dead ends, so many monsters are trapped in it all their lives.The exit can only be passed by ordinary humans. It is not high, and it is connected to a small tomb passage. After walking through it, there are many forks in the road, like an underground water network.But Cheng Wanshi is very clear, the underground palace just landed in the gap of the water net, the water flow from all around gathers in the moat around the underground palace, the Yin Qi circulates and gradually becomes thicker, and the things in the underground palace will become stronger...
Stopping his random thoughts in time, he made a rare calculation. It was still a few hours before the main tomb was activated and the evil formation was completely aroused. As for which way to go...he decisively chose the middle one. Nothing but a big stone cave at the end, bigger than half a football field, filled with a putrid smell, or something moldy, terrible.
There are countless skeletons piled up in the corner, almost without flesh, as long as they touch it a little, they will fall down immediately.This place is like a kitchen waste treatment room. Humans and beasts are food, and the bones and other garbage after being slaughtered are piled up here.There are many pipes in the cave, and from time to time, sand or water will flow out of it, dripping on the ground, and the sound is very clear.
"Maybe feed those monsters some snacks once in a while?" The thought flashed by, Cheng Wanshi didn't have time to think about it, he stepped on the mixed bones and kept walking.After passing through the cave, the road in front becomes much wider. There are many small coffins buried on the walls on both sides. The coffins are placed vertically, and there are many strange paintings on the lids. Lord's favorite?Or something like a pet.
The connection between the cave and this section of the road is disconnected, and all things have to be climbed, and the terrain here is relatively high.He began to wonder, is there not only the main tomb group here, but also a part of the royal palace that sank after the country was destroyed?
Behind the coffin, there are murals. On the paintings are countless stars, all of which are ground gemstones, which look radiant and very beautiful.Cheng Wanshi thought of the starry sky lamps he had seen on the Internet before, but it was not as shocking as the murals. After all, the gems here are all genuine.Beneath the stars were worshipers, many of whom were tied to wooden frames, and behind them were executioners with large knives in their hands, and some of them had already had their heads cut off.The head was placed in a jade plate and enshrined to the stars in the nine heavens, showing the worship and admiration for it by Lord Fuchi.
This may indicate that the early Lord Fuchi had developed a covetous heart, and his awe of heaven and earth gradually transformed into a more brutal desire to possess and rule.
Suddenly there was a shallow breathing sound from behind, and Cheng Wanshi immediately became vigilant, and a pile of charms fell from his sleeve, which he held in his palm, ready to be thrown out at any time.Sure enough, some of the coffins on the wall were shaking violently, the lid fell off suddenly, and a few babies crawled out from inside, wearing clothes made of gold silk——
wrong!
Cheng Wanshi was stunned. He thought that such a small creature was a baby or a child, but when they got closer, he realized that it was a dwarf.Except for their stature, they all looked like adults, some even had gray beards.
"Master... giggle..."
"Glory..."
"Nine Heavens Pagoda... Heaven and Earth... Co-Master..."
They still retain some consciousness. Although the words they speak are a little vague, they can understand everything.The dwarves rolled up their eyelids, revealing a pair of big round eyes, which were very strange, and their eyes fell on Cheng Wanshi.Suddenly, they cried and retreated again and again, and the shouts in their mouths changed:
"collapse……"
"The artisan... is dead..."
"A piece of stubborn stone... the king..."
Leaving Cheng Wanshi alone who didn't know why, after thinking about it, he felt that these dwarfs might have been people close to Lord Fuchi, or they were simply craftsmen of the Lord's tomb.
The author has something to say:
