The monk of the way of beauty

Chapter 645 Ancient Castle

"I have investigated many rumors of this kind of wormhole and collected a lot of information, but that's all it is. They are all rumors and have never been true, so I don't know the source of them at all." Randolph said frankly Everyone said.

Ling Xiao stared at this weird stone door, and then said: "But it may be related to the Cree, after all, the Inhumans were created by the Cree, and according to Skye, this stone door, no, this one The thing behind the stone gate has the ability to destroy the Inhumans."

Everyone nodded in agreement. Since this stone gate is so closely related to the Inhumans, it is likely to be related to the Cree. This is a very reasonable speculation. Barbara followed up and said: "In addition, there is another The parchment was discovered at the same time."

As she spoke, she handed the parchment that Fitz brought back from Morocco to Professor Randolph from behind. Randolph immediately raised his eyebrows when he saw it, and said, "Oh, it's really rare. I've seen this thing before. Pass."

Ling Xiao poked his head over from behind, took a look, and said, "This seems to be a very common Hebrew word."

"That's right." Randolph nodded, then looked at Fitz and asked, "Then what else do we know, Mr. Fitz?"

After Simmons was taken away, Fitz dug deep into the history of this boulder. He introduced: "The boulder has changed hands several times, first in the Germanic tribes, and in France during the Hundred Years' War, but before Napoleon's era, they It was transferred again, before the clue was cut off it was..."

"England?" Randolph raised his head, interrupting Fitz with certainty.

Fitz raised his eyes and asked in surprise, "That's right, how did you know?"

"Because I saw this word engraved on the wall of a castle in Gloucestershire, England with my own eyes in 1853." Randolph's tone was very affirmative. After he finished speaking, he even walked outside impatiently, and said at the same time : "Let's go, let's rush over now!"

Coulson shrugged, and walked out first, Barbara and Fitz quickly followed, Ling Xiao was the last to leave the restricted area, he took a deep look at the strange stone door, then turned around and walked away. Go, at the next moment, this strange stone door turned into a black liquid again!

Although he set off immediately, Ling Xiao still made some more preparations, drinking water, food, and some necessary equipment.After all, this time it is very likely that he will directly enter an alien planet, and he can prepare as well as he can. Ling Xiao is very cautious in these matters.

Gloucestershire is located in the southwest of England, northeast of the mouth of the Severn River. This is a county based on agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry.

Outside an ancient castle far away from the city, the butterfly plane of SHIELD landed slowly. Ling Xiao stepped off the plane first, his eyes flashed slightly, and the power of divine consciousness had swept across the radius of several miles, and then Ling Xiao's gaze was a little dignified, because there was an area inside the castle that his spiritual sense could not penetrate. Obviously, there was some kind of secret hidden deep here, and they came to the right place.

This is a deserted old castle. It should have been abandoned for tens to hundreds of years. The vines and grass outside the castle have spread into the castle along the cracks.

"There's no one here!" Ling Xiao nodded to the others, and then stepped into the castle first, and the others quickly followed.

I have to say that following a powerful avenger is always more reassuring. Following Ling Xiao, Coulson, Barbara, and Fitz are not nervous, but Professor Randolph, this guy escaped The movements are fast and skillful, Ling Xiao has seen it once before.

Entering the inner courtyard of the old castle from the gate, the desolation immediately hits the face, the ground is full of weeds, it has not been cleaned for many years, and even the hall of the old castle is full of withered yellow broken leaves.

"Yes, yes, I'm here to participate in a masquerade." After entering the hall, the familiarity of the past came over me. For a person who has lived for thousands of years, the memories of the last 200 years are not difficult to find , Randolph said with certainty: "But the masquerade party was just a cover-up. I heard the rumors of interstellar travel, and later found out that it was all nonsense, but the dance party was pretty good."

After entering the hall, Ling Xiao was observing carefully, while Professor Randolph was full of emotion and nostalgia, Coulson couldn't help reminding: "Where's the lettering?"

"That's right, that's right, that's right." Professor Randolph immediately woke up from his memories, glanced at the large hall, walked to the west side of the hall, and muttered, "I was admiring the exquisite stonework here, and then... "

As he spoke, Professor Randolph turned around and pointed the flashlight at a place two meters behind him, where a stone brick was clearly engraved with a Hebrew word - death.

Fitz looked at the carvings on the stone bricks, and said with a dull gaze: "It is indeed the same as the one on the scroll, death."

"That's right." Randolph nodded, and continued: "It also has another translation—death punishment."

"It may also mean no trespassing!" Ling Xiao tilted his head, and said, "There are also engravings with similar general meanings in some ancient tombs in Huaxia, warning people not to trespass, because there are many extremes in them." Many dangerous organs have experienced hundreds or even thousands of years and their power is still there."

"That's true, but don't you think it's strange?" Randolph clicked on the engraving on it, and said: "Hebrew warnings are engraved in British castles. If it is a historic site, there are some It's too inappropriate."

Barbara frowned, and asked in a deep voice: "So, you didn't continue your research."

Randolph nodded, and recalled: "There was a man dressed as an owl, I got him drunk, and he admitted that the interstellar travel never happened, it was just a ritual killing here. It sounded like a half-demon cult, a trick to trick new members into joining, and then the fire dancers started to perform, and I lost my mind."

There was not much value in Randolph's words, and Coulson and the others searched the interior of the castle while listening.

Ling Xiao passed by, looked at Randolph, and asked, "So, what kind of ritual killing have you never seen?"

"Yeah!" Randolph nodded, and said with a serious face: "Yes, because it is a ritual killing, the target to be selected is actually selected in advance. As for how to proceed, it is determined It has nothing to do with interstellar travel, so I didn't participate in it. If everything here is really related to that stone gate, the content of their grand ceremony can be imagined."

That's right, so to speak, it should be that the master here has mastered the way to open the space tunnel regularly, and then exiled the selected people to a different planet, exiled to death, and what they need to do now is to find the way they used. method.

"Here's another one!" Coulson shrugged and found the same Hebrew words engraved with "Death" under the east wall, and said, "That's why I put the S.H.I.E.L.D. The reason for taking it down, it's too eye-catching!"

Coulson did this in order not to reveal his identity easily, but Barbara couldn't help reminding: "But you should know that there is a huge eagle emblem on the top of our plane!"

"I know, I just can't help but shiver sometimes." After finishing speaking, Coulson pressed down hard on a brick that was obviously different in color from other stone bricks. The next moment, with a "creak" With a sound, a stone door that should have not been opened for decades slid open to one side.

Looking at the deep passage and the scattered dust, Randolph couldn't help but reminded: "Are you sure you want to do this? Death penalty is written here?"

However, as soon as Randolph finished speaking, before Coulson and Ling Xiao said anything, Fitz had already walked in first. Coulson shrugged and followed behind indifferently. Randolph looked at Ling Xiao and said, "I follow behind you."

Ling Xiao smiled softly, and walked in behind Coulson, followed by Barbara, and finally Randolph himself.

This guy's greed for life and fear of death has almost become an instinct. He has lived for more than 2000 years. He has never seen anything, and he is still like this. It really makes people feel speechless.
