The anchor doesn't want to die

His little flame danced in the air, helping him light the long-extinguished oil lamp on the wall.

"Actually, it doesn't have that name." A lamp like a bean, the candlelight flickered slightly, and the light and shadow caressed the wrinkles between the man's brows.

"Its real name is...?"

"You start one."

Huo Miao seemed to understand the man's words, and circled in the air like a bee, looking extremely happy.

"Egg yolk?" At least it's consistent in color.

The little yellow flame landed on his fingertips again, and he accepted the title meekly.

Liang Yuesheng bent his eyes and said with a smile: "Did you come here specially to help me?"

Little Huomiao turned into a small dragon, lying cross-legged on the ground, and nodded.Immediately, it raised its chin like a cat, and Liang Yuesheng scratched its neck knowingly.

"Ah..." The shit shovel officer covered his nose and received a knowing blow.

The fire dragon stood up and flew in the air, dragging a long tail flame behind it.It pushed open the door, and a pair of huge eyeballs appeared in front of it.

The giant snake put its head on the corridor and waited in front of the door for an unknown amount of time.

The thick and long letters shrank and shrunk, leaving a large puddle of water on the floor.

Other snake heads came together and blocked the door. Everywhere they entered, there were crowded snake faces.Huge vertical eyes looked coldly at the two people in the room, and immediately, flames, frost, and lightning struck.

In an instant, the platinum flames engulfed the world, and the strong light made Liang Yuesheng cover his eyes.The warm light drove away the humidity in the air, and the sense of security reminded him of the first time he went to the north to spend the winter enjoying the heating.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw that the whole palace was as bright as day.The oil lamps that had been extinguished were lit up again, and the interior of the pavilion, corridors, and railings were shrouded in candlelight.The reliefs on the walls are detailed and lifelike, and the dilapidated palace seems to have changed back to the heyday in an instant.

The giant snake backed away, as if it didn't dare to approach anymore.There was scorched smoke from the scales on the tip of its nose, revealing a little red in the subcutaneous tissue.

Under the strong light, Liang Yuesheng could clearly see the complete appearance of the hydra.The colorful scales are bright and bright, and like all venomous snakes, they have beautiful colors.Its lower body was still buried under the ground, and the cracked ground was covered with rubble and bones.

Liang Yuesheng stood in the corridor, only ten meters away from the nearest snake head.The fire dragon lay coiled beside it, staring at the giant snake in front of it.

The snake spit out a mouthful of venom again, but it was evaporated without a trace by the blazing fire between the lightning and the flint.The air was a little dry, but somehow reassuring.

"Now we can go to find the exit of Gu Dao with peace of mind. With the egg yolk, that guy doesn't seem to be able to hurt us." Liang Yuesheng patted the man's shoulder, and was held by the man.

"No hidden dangers can be left behind." The man's voice was extremely firm.

"It's not easy for it to grow so big, and it hasn't done anything harmful. It's just stuck at the end of the Gu Dao and swallowed its own kind." The most important thing is that the game clearance condition doesn't seem to include killing this hydra .

Seeing that he couldn't be persuaded, the man stopped talking.The two searched for clues in the palace together, trying to obtain information about the exit.

There seemed to be some stories recorded on the reliefs on the wall. For the sake of viewing integrity, he hugged the fire dragon's neck and slowly flew down to the first floor.As soon as they landed, the giant snake welcomed them in a friendly manner. The man swung his long sword and chopped off the ice blade falling from the sky. Immediately, a cloud of hot air rose up, evaporating the ice crystals into water mist.Liang Yuesheng raised his head, only to see several snake heads looking down at them unwillingly, with extremely corrosive saliva dripping from its mouth, like an acid rain.

The young man ran away quickly, sticking to the wall tightly, the fire dragon opened the barrier and blocked the attack of the poisonous snake wave after wave.The lights were brightly lit all around, and the figures of the snake and the fire dragon swayed on the wall. After several battles, the fire dragon firmly gained the upper hand.Liang Yuesheng calmed down and carefully observed the reliefs on the wall.

The story seems to start from a small mountain village.The gods blessed and gave the villagers fire.With fire, people's safety is guaranteed and production capacity is greatly improved.

Liang Yuesheng walked forward step by step, watching the content on the relief.

The villagers are grateful to the god who gave the fire, and built an ancestral hall for it, and worship and worship have continued since then.However, the times are gradually changing, and the sea is also turning into a mulberry field.The resources in the mountains are gradually becoming scarce, and some villagers have to open up their territory, leave their homeland, and go to more fertile places.

Some people were reluctant to leave their hometown, so they took root and stayed on the barren land, relying on the mercy of the gods to survive; some people found a more livable environment, so they formed a school of their own, and have little contact with their old friends since then.

The poor mountains and bad waters finally stimulated the potential of the left-behind villagers.They learn the art of controlling insects, use insects and beasts to hunt, and gradually become masters at playing Gu.

Seeing this, Liang Yuesheng suddenly realized that the reliefs on the walls probably recorded the history of the Miao people, and those who remained at the original site were the Black Miao people.

As for the Baimiao people, they gradually migrated outwards, expanded their land, and finally came into contact with the world beyond the mountains, and even had contacts with the Central Plains people.After leaving their homeland, the Baimiao people have new beliefs. They thank nature, praise nature, and have a high ability to accept the culture of the Han people. Only the old Baimiao people in the deep mountains still maintain their previous customs. Like the Hei Miao people, they learn the art of witchcraft and regard the five poisons as part of their lives. Even so, they are more open and friendly than the Hei Miao people.

The relief on the first floor of the basement ends here abruptly, as if the story has turned a chapter here.Liang Yuesheng patted the fire dragon, hugged its neck again, and flew back to the first floor in the rain of arrows.

The hydra attacked in every possible way to no avail. Seeing that there was no chance to take advantage of it and its efforts were wasted, it simply stopped attacking and took a nap.Both sides died down, and the atmosphere was unusually harmonious.Without the noise caused by the collision of wind, fire, thunder and lightning, Liang Yuesheng's ears became much cleaner.He wholeheartedly continued to observe the content of the relief——

Times have changed, but the Hemiao people still revere their gods, and the years are quiet and peaceful, until one day, a demon from afar came to the depths of the mountain and took root there.The xenophobia made the villagers harass the uninvited guest frequently, trying to drive him out of the mountain.It's a pity that the demon's strength is too strong, and the villagers have repeatedly returned without success.

In desperation, they sent the Gu King, but the Gu King was still no match for the devil.Finally, God couldn't bear to see his people suffer, so he sent his messengers.

On the altar of five poisons, the envoy sowed a Gu seed for the Hei Miao people.The young snake was weak and harmless, and was sent into the Gu Dao by the messenger.The Gu seed bestowed by the gods finally came to the deepest part of the Gu Dao and turned into a powerful three-headed snake.

Liang Yuesheng took a deep breath, turned his head, and looked at the giant snake who was resting behind him.

"Is this what the gods sent to deal with you? That's why you want to kill it... so that you can wipe out all the Hemiao people who obstruct you?" Liang Yuesheng asked the demon beside him.

"It's only now that I know what's on the relief." The man denied it cleanly. "I have stayed in this mountain for hundreds of years, and I have never been here, and I have never known the existence of this snake."

"In your heart, am I such an unbearable person?" The man bent down and held the young man's shoulders.

Liang Yuesheng cast a sorry look, and was pinched by the other party's hand.

A cruel smile appeared on that human face. "If I really want to attack those Miao people, do you think they can survive to this day?"

"That's right..." The devil's sword is still very fast. It seems that it only took him a blink of an eye to cut off four snake heads at the same time with one sword. Fragile human beings don't have super regeneration ability like this god-given snake. If you meet this guy, you can only wait for death.

"Since you didn't intend to harm humans, why did you come to this extremely xenophobic place?"

The man remained silent, clearly unwilling to answer.Liang Yuesheng just asked casually, he didn't intend to pry into other people's privacy.He looked at the reliefs on the wall and continued to read.

The story is still going on. Hundreds of years later, a severe drought came and the supplies were scarce. The Black Miao people had to expand outwards. However, the land was occupied by the Bai Miao people a hundred years ago.A few generations have passed, and the black and white Miao people have long been separated. The white Miao people are unwilling to give up the resources that are already extremely scarce to the black Miao people. The gongs and drums of war.Afterwards, the devil summoned the evil dragon, and the poisonous fire suddenly descended on the village of the Hemiao people.Terrified, the people begged the gods for help, only to find that the gods no longer gave any blessings.

——Has the god abandoned us?A warrior pushed open the door of the temple in extreme anxiety, only to find that the scenery inside the temple was quite different from what the villagers had imagined.The place where the gods were originally enshrined has suddenly become a paradise for priests.They were originally messengers for the gods, but they took over the magpie's nest and threw the statue out of the temple.The high priest embezzled the sacrifices offered by the villagers, spent a lot of time and wine in the temple, and was promiscuous.Only then did the villagers understand that it was not the gods who abandoned them, but the moths who drove the gods out and deceived their superiors, thus making this group of people who have lived by the gods' pity since ancient times lose their patron saints.

Then the disaster came, and both internal and external troubles erupted: there were Baimiao people outside; inside, there were priests who betrayed the gods, and demons controlling poisonous dragons.The Black Miao people were quickly defeated, and the old, weak, sick and disabled quickly became fodder for the Gu insects. Only the healthy and strong young people were lucky enough to escape and were taken in by the Bai Miao people.So far, the Miao people have united as one to resist those out-of-control Gu insects.

The relief sculpture on the first floor ended here, Liang Yuesheng sighed heavily.The first half of the story is still about the past, and the second half seems to be about the future.At least when he escaped from Hei Miao Village, those Miao people hadn't been backlashed by Gu worms.

He looked at the demon beside him, only to see that the other's face was terrifyingly gloomy.

"What's wrong?" The young man shuddered a little as he looked at the dead face.

"..." The man muttered slightly, but finally fell silent.He looked at his palm, then sighed, "Let's go upstairs."

This time there was no fire dragon to take him up, the man hugged him, jumped up from the railing on the first floor, and landed firmly in front of the attic on the second floor.There are many doors on the second floor, so the number of reliefs is reduced. There is a considerable distance between each relief, and the continuity is extremely poor.Liang Yuesheng managed to find the first relief on this floor, but found a familiar face on this relief.

The marble boy standing in front of the main hall reappeared on the relief.The young man rode on top of the fire dragon, rode the wind, and above the clouds, poured a flame symbolizing hope on the earth, burning the violent Gu insects on the earth to ashes.The devil has since disappeared, and the guy who betrayed the gods has also been punished in the fire.

Everything seemed to be moving in a good direction. Liang Yuesheng thought that the next relief would tell the story of the Miao people rebuilding their homes, but found that things were not that simple.

The content of the relief was actually changed back to the night when the fire dragon descended on the Hei Miao village, but this time, there was an extra figure in the Hei Miao village.The author of the relief focused his pen and ink on the new character, and a group of villagers chased after him, as if he had made some huge mistake.

Liang Yuesheng was slightly taken aback, he thought of the night when he first entered this game world.The new character in this relief is the protagonist he plays?

Fortunately, this relief is sandwiched between the two doors, and the next relief is next to it. The two are very close to each other, which ensures the continuity of the story.

However, the next scene surprised Liang Yuesheng—the protagonist of the story was tied to the wall by the villagers, and the Gu worms were eating his body.

He shivered.If he hadn't managed to escape that night, it probably would have ended like this.

Then, he followed the silent man to the next relief.However, after seeing the content of the relief, he felt chills down his spine again.The protagonist of the story fell into the Gu Dao, and the huge spider wrapped him around the web and stretched out its long and pointed mouthparts.The picture freezes at this moment, making people daydream.

There is no more to live, this is another failure case of a player playing BE.

The next few reliefs are roughly similar in content, showing the various ways of death of the protagonist of the game, which makes Liang Yuesheng, who is groping around in the game world, feel more pressure.

After reading all the reliefs, he found an old chair and sat down, feeling extremely depressed.

There are still many vacant walls here, which seem to be waiting for someone to continue to leave traces, as a new way to die.

He raised his head and found that the demon's complexion was worse than his, which made him a little curious.

"Chen Xing, are you angry?"

"No."

"But I can already feel the killing intent." It was not a killing intent aimed at him, but the hatred contained in it shocked him.

The man slightly restrained the low pressure around his body, and smiled softly: "Illusion."

Liang Yuesheng couldn't laugh or cry, but he didn't dare to make jokes at this time, and said seriously: "The content on that relief has nothing to do with reality or the future. It does look like some kind of prophecy, but I will never die."

He still has to cherish his life and make a good ending.In addition, there is someone else's Life Gu in his body, if he dies, that decisive woman will die with him, he doesn't want to "buy one get one free".

He vaguely felt that the man's inexplicable anger might be related to the role he played.This demon made no secret of his love for him, but witnessed his death time and time again on the relief.

It's very painful, watching the people you cherish die, but you can't do anything about it.After reading the story of the count painter Federico, he can understand how painful it is to lose a loved one-although he does not understand where the demon's love for him comes from, and he has no intention of responding each other's feelings.

He patted the man's shoulder lightly, and said with a smile: "Look, we will soon walk out of the Gu Dao. When we return to the Miao people's village and uncover the masks of those people in the temple, we will be able to leave this place." A piece of land. At that time, the sea and the sky will be vast..."

Yes, the distance between him and the happy ending is very close.

After thinking about it for a while, his mood cleared up.His joy seemed to infect the demon, who bent down and lifted him from his chair.

"Come on, I may have found the exit."

"Ah?" Liang Yuesheng blinked. His original intention of looking at those reliefs was indeed to find clues, but he only saw the bifurcation and interweaving of a world line from the reliefs.

Where did this demon find clues?

The man picked him up and jumped down to the first floor.Seeing the movement of its prey, the giant snake grinned with its eight heads together, scrambling to bite at the two of them.The long sword swung like the wind, resisting its attack at a speed invisible to the naked eye.The man was hugging someone in one hand and holding a sword in the other, with a look of impatience on his face.

The fire dragon seemed to be very dissatisfied with the behavior of the giant snake, and spewed a mouthful of flames at it. The scales of the snake quickly burned, and the giant snake writhed in pain, rolling and rubbing around. Seeing that the fire could not be extinguished, it went back to the ground again, trying to Let the full moisture in the wetland soil put out the fire on yourself.

The earthquake continued, and Liang Yuesheng had to hug the nearby pillars again to stabilize his center of gravity.After a while, the shaking of the world stopped, and the hall returned to calm again, but most of the candles in the hall lit by the fire dragon were extinguished in the shaking.

On the ground of the negative first floor, a large hole like a crater appeared, and the depth below it was bottomless.

"Let's go." The man put away his sword and led him to a stone gate.

Just like there was always a door used to release beasts and slaves in the arena in ancient Rome, there is such a door in the bottom floor of this hall.

The fire dragon bit the doorknob and pulled the stone door open, revealing the deep and long tunnel inside.

The lights in the hall faintly illuminate the scene inside, but the light cannot reach deeper and farther.Liang Yuesheng touched his egg yolk's head, Huolong rubbed his hand affectionately, and flew into the tunnel.

The fire dragon flew all the way forward, lighting up the walls along the way.It seemed to be just an extremely ordinary tunnel, without any abnormalities.Then, it turned around and returned to the two of them.

Just as Liang Yuesheng was about to step into it, he was held back by a man.Then, he saw the other party pick up a piece of gravel and throw it into the tunnel.The gravel bounced on the tunnel floor, and in an instant, thousands of arrows were fired.

"Sure enough..." The man picked up a few stones again and threw them towards the wall of the tunnel.Immediately, poisonous gas, ground thorns, and rolling stones all attacked. If it was not stones but humans that activated the mechanism, there would probably be no meat left.

The man smiled mockingly, then turned sideways, and said to Liang Yuesheng: "Follow me later, don't touch the organ."

The young man nodded like a cat, as well-behaved as a cat, making the other party smile.

The man clenched his wrist tightly and walked deep into the tunnel.Suddenly, the ground shook and gravel fell from the top of his head.Liang Yuesheng turned her head, only to see a pair of huge snake eyes suddenly appearing at the tunnel door behind her, which turned out to be the lingering snake from before.

The snake head squeezed into the tunnel with difficulty, broke the tail of an arrow, and chased after the two people who were advancing slowly.

The fire dragon spewed out flames, trying to expel it, but the snake endured the pain and continued to chase them.Fire beeped on its scales, but it ignored it.

"Is it crazy?" Liang Yuesheng knew that this was the time to be in a hurry, and it was the most taboo to be impetuous when walking this road full of traps, but there was such a thing chasing after them behind him, he had to speed up his pace.

"I've said it a long time ago, cut the weeds and get rid of the roots."

The fire dragon understood the meaning of the man, and it heated up in an instant, and the platinum-gold flame was gradually dyed with a beautiful layer of indigo.The flame rushed towards the head of the giant snake like a galloping horse.There was a burning smell, which was a little pungent in the small space.

The severely wounded snake fell down in the tunnel, stagnant, and seemed to pass out.Seeing this, the man held Liang Yuesheng's wrist and continued to walk forward.He walked extremely steadily with every step, and carefully explained the specific location of the mechanism. Such a precise judgment almost made Liang Yuesheng mistakenly think that he had walked through this tunnel.

Probably the devil has a special ability to perceive——Liang Yuesheng thought so, but he didn't take it to heart, after all, the man said before that it was his first time here.

Without the pursuers behind them, the road ahead of the two was much more stable, but the length of the tunnel seemed to exceed expectations. Until Liang Yuesheng broke into sweat, neither of them saw a ray of dawn belonging to the outside world.

It was late at night, and he was already exhausted and sleepy, but he had to strengthen his spirit and continue to walk forward.After all, this is not a suitable place to press the pause button to rest, and the next rest will probably be after walking out of the tunnel.

His calf was already sore, but the tunnel still seemed endless.The fire dragon seemed to see his fatigue, and motioned him to sit on it.Liang Yuesheng didn't hold back, so he simply became a lazy person.

Once the tight strings are relaxed, fatigue and sleepiness will come like a tide.He nearly fell asleep several times, but was forcibly woken up by himself.It wasn't until there was a strange noise in the air that he woke up suddenly.He looked at the source of the sound, only to see the shadow of a snake reappearing behind him.

It is said that it is the giant snake before, but it seems to be a little different from it.The scorched part of the snake's head suddenly turned into a moving thing, and only then did Liang Yuesheng realize that it was the hairy feet of a spider.The huge spider came out of the hole in the snake's head, and quickly climbed forward, activating countless organs along the way, but it nimbly avoided them all.

A dozen or so spiders came out of the snake's head one after another, seeming somewhat friendly.Later, Liang Yuesheng recalled that he had a relationship with these spiders in the woods before.At that time, in order to show the linkage of the spider web, the devil threw a spider egg on the spider web, and as a result, all the spiders were attracted.

They were supposed to stay in their own woods, why did they suddenly appear in this place?

Liang Yuesheng was puzzled, and then, a familiar piece of flesh grew out of the snake's head, and he suddenly understood.

The monster that caused the two of them a headache before turned out to be a part of the snake's head, just filling the hole left by the charred dragon.

By now, he didn't know whether it was the monster who took advantage of the giant snake's injury and fused the latter, or the giant snake swallowed a powerful tonic because of the injury.No matter what, it can't change the reality of two difficult guys becoming one.The monster must have used those spiders as a fusion reserve in the woods, so he brought them to the vicinity of the palace, waiting for an opportunity.Seeing that the giant snake was injured, it took the opportunity to invade and merge with the snake.

It was no wonder that the snake, which had been eaten so often, would come after them again. It carried the monster's hostility towards them, and instantly changed from a greedy gatekeeper to a vengeful hunter.

The snake's forward speed was much faster than before, and those spiders who walked like flying with eight legs were also moving forward quickly in the traps along the way.Looking at their galloping speed, Liang Yuesheng's thinking was distorted.

If he didn't enter the Gu Dao by mistake, then the Gu King's laurels will definitely fall on this monster.

Spiders are hairy and are afraid of fire after all.The three or two flames of the fire dragon made them retreat, but they were swallowed by the giant snake behind them at the moment of retreat.

The broken spider's leg slipped out from between the snake's lips, and was left behind by it, becoming rotten water under the poisonous fog of the mechanism.

Looking at the pursuers behind him, the man quickened his pace, and the fire dragon also increased its flying speed while counterattacking.The snake had already been bruised and bruised, but it still refused to stop chasing, as if it was the instinct of the Gu insect to become stronger.It galloped all the way towards the exit of the Gu Dao, unwilling to be robbed of the leader by this competitor who had met many times before.

It wants to eat these two damned competitors to replenish its strength, but the distance between the two sides is always a breath away.

Dawn finally appeared in front of my eyes.Liang Yuesheng's eyes lit up, and he signaled the fire dragon to speed up.Just when he and the man were about to rush out of the tunnel, they saw the bright exit gradually being blocked.Dull stones rubbed against the floor, making a loud noise.

Inertia made it difficult for the two of them to brake in time, but the man refused to dodge and kicked the boulder in front of him, distorting its trajectory a little.After her eyesight got used to the light, Liang Yuesheng realized that the location she was in was not the wilderness in her imagination, but a magnificent palace.

The boulder suddenly blocked the exit, and a dull loud noise came from it, as if the snake was violently hitting the boulder.However, dozens of naked strong men are pulling the ropes and holding on to the stone.The snake couldn't break through the line of defense for a while, so it had to hit the stone over and over again.

Liang Yuesheng was panting like a cow, and at this moment he was finally able to calm down.He looked around and saw a dozen guys in black and hoods looking at them both.

"Ha...Hello?" Liang Yuesheng greeted them with a stiff smile.
