Every world is full of ghosts and monsters begging for hugs
Chapter 523 What to do if your boyfriend is too exciting (22)
Gu Shu and Xu Wei also noticed the murals, but they didn't pay too much attention. After all, they had seen many murals since they entered this huge building.
This spire-shaped building looks very ancient, and the scenes painted on it are a piece of history, but the scenes recorded above are all very strange.
Xu Wei suddenly said: "A lot of gold!"
There are many sparkling things piled up in the corner of this dark room, including gold and jewelry, as if to imply that the rumors that the golden palace is full of treasures are true.
Xu Wei walked over and took a closer look. Naturally, he was also greedy. If he had one of these things and just took them out and sold them, then his mother's medical expenses would be...
Gu Shu reminded: "Don't move things around here, be careful of catching the disease."
Xu Wei hesitated and took a step back.
Bai Yao was close to the wall, her eyes lingering on the mural for a long time, taking in this grand painting bit by bit and carefully. She didn't miss any detail, even the black spots in the gaps between the wall bricks. Nothing was missed.
When Gu Shu was dragged into the misty world, she was working on documentary research. Seeing that Bai Yao was paying attention to the things on the wall, she took a cursory look and said, "What is recorded on it should be the ritual of praying to the gods. The method of sacrifice.”
Bai Yao asked: "God-seeking ceremony?"
Gu Shu pointed to the far wall, "What is painted on it is dry land, withered plants, and emaciated people kneeling on the ground. From here, a stream begins to appear. Looking along the stream, the earth is rejuvenated. The fertile land grows food, the trees flourish, and this change occurs because someone is praying to God.”
Gu Shu scanned all the paintings and said: "There are a lot of deer totems on them. Looking at some things similar to words on them, this should be the extinct Alma civilization, and this ancient civilization had something to do with deer. A special kind of worship.”
"They believe that deer is a messenger of God and can exorcise evil spirits. Logically speaking, tribes that use animals as their totems should be closely related to economic life such as fishing and hunting, agriculture, and livestock raising. Here, deer is actually used as a totem. Maybe a long, long time ago, this wasn’t a desert.”
Xu Wei said: "You mean, this might be an oasis?"
"I'm not sure, it's just a guess. After all, there have been so many changes over the years. With the changes in the atmospheric environment and crustal movement, it is not impossible that this place was once an oasis."
Xu Wei couldn't help but say: "You know so much."
Gu Shu replied: "You can know these things by reading more books."
Xu Wei smiled and did not answer.
He was embarrassed to say that it was because of his native family. In fact, he did not finish junior high school seriously. While his peers were sitting in the classroom studying, he was already thinking about how to make money.
Gu Shu continued: "This is a special god-seeking ceremony to transform the body and combine with the messenger of the gods to restore vitality to the place where one's own flesh and blood was born."
Bai Yao: "Is this method really effective?"
Gu Shu thought for a while and said objectively: "For thousands of years, when encountering problems that cannot be solved by human power, people have habitually placed their hopes on gods. The so-called sacrifice of living people has been practiced in China and foreign countries since ancient times. In short, for people, there is a spiritual comfort effect, but whether it can have other practical effects..."
She paused and said: "There are still many unsolved mysteries. Whether there are miracles beyond the scope of science, I can't give a definite answer."
A group of them were inexplicably pulled into the so-called escape game, and they also encountered different massacres. Such events have long made materialists shaken.
Gu Shu raised her head and looked at the mural, "But since this evil method is recorded in the Golden Palace, it must mean that someone has tried it before."
Xu Wei said: "We'd better find a way to get out."
If you stay in one place for too long, you will be easily found by Ismail.
They went up the stairs that they had fallen in, but the secret door could not be pushed open no matter what.
Bai Yao said: "This door can only be opened from the outside."
Gu Shu: "It seems we have to find another exit."
Xu Wei shouted: "It's too late!"
I don't know where they triggered the mechanism. A hole suddenly appeared on the wall of the dark room, and sand was being poured into it.
The sand accumulates very quickly. Even if they stand at the top of the stairs, looking at the sight of the steps being engulfed by yellow sand, they will soon be affected.
Gu Shu gritted her teeth and took out a metal ring from her pocket.
Xu Wei was surprised, "Are you really willing to use it?"
This ring can open a teleportation channel and displace those who pass through it. However, the exit of the channel is random. They may go to a safe place or a more dangerous place, but this can definitely solve the urgent need. Precious props.
Generally speaking, this thing will only be used in life-or-death situations where there is no other way.
Gu Shu said calmly: "Now is the time to use it."
The ring was thrown into the air and expanded, and a hole like a black hole appeared. It was dark in color and no one could guess what was on the other side.
They can only pray that their luck will not be too bad, and they will not escape from one dangerous situation and enter another dangerous situation.
Xu Wei has always cherished his life. In order to survive in the past, he could even put aside his pride and beg for mercy from others. Who doesn't want to live a glorious life? It's just that he doesn't have the qualifications.
He glanced back and finally clenched his fists, "I'll go there first."
Bai Yao looked at him in surprise. Xu Wei, who would leave her and run for his life, would actually take the initiative to be the first to go to an unknown place.
Of course Xu Wei is not a gentleman, otherwise he would not have pulled Bai Yao out of the car. However, now that he takes the initiative to take risks, it is really not like what he, a self-interested person, would do.
Bai Yao looked at Gu Shu again, feeling that Xu Wei glanced at Gu Shu before making a decision.
Gu Shu didn't feel anything. She just said briefly: "Be safe."
Xu Wei was the first person to walk into the passage. After a while, his voice came, "This is a ruin. There is no danger found at present."
Gu Shu and Bai Yao looked at each other and walked in together.
This place looks like a collapsed ruin. The stone bridge in the middle is in tatters. Below is a black abyss that cannot be seen to the bottom. Several huge stone statues fell to the ground and were also torn apart.
The passage disappeared, and even if they wanted to go back, they couldn't.
