Chapter 104 Sacrifice

Mai Mai was dragged to Yinding by Costin.No matter how big the cave was, it was not that big. The open copper tripod faced him, and the copper nails on the inner wall gleamed coldly, like a big mouth full of sharp teeth.Mai Mai couldn't bear to look at Shao Jing again, and could only stare straight at the bronze tripod.Then he suddenly discovered that the copper tripod was turning slowly.The Yin tripod on the left was turned counterclockwise about fifteen degrees to the right, and the Yang tripod on the right was turned clockwise about fifteen degrees to the left. Yang is against Shao Jing, and Yang is against Mai Mai, and Yin is against Shao Jing.

Shao Jing also noticed the rotation of the two tripods. For a while, he couldn't care less about affection, and exchanged glances with Mai Mai in doubt. A glimmer of hope arose in his heart, and he winked lightly. The two struggled with all their strength at the same time, Ah Hua He Haidongqing was bending over to drag the person, not guarding that the duck thrown into the pot would flop, and at the same time was kicked off his hand, and took a step back.Ahua yelled and cursed, kicked Shao Jing, and was about to bend down to drag him again, when he suddenly felt his body uncontrollably backed sideways, as if something was pulling him behind.He turned his head back in shock, and naturally there was no one behind him, but he couldn't help but backed to the left and back, and Hai Dongqing was also backing to the right and back with a look of horror on his face.

Mai Mai lay on the ground and stared wide-eyed. Now she could see clearly that the direction of Ah Hua's retreat was the opening of the Yin Ding, while Hai Dongqing retreated towards the opening of the Yang Ding.After two or three steps, they will be sucked into the two tripods respectively.

A Hua scratched in the air with both hands, still tightly pinching the emerald eye.But the cave was empty and there was no place to draw on, and even the ground was flat. Although he struggled hard, he couldn't stop his body from sliding towards the Yinding cauldron little by little.

Hai Dongqing's situation was exactly the same as his, but he reacted faster than Ahua, and stretched out his hand to pull Ahua after being stunned for a moment.His idea was right. When the two crossed and slid past each other, if they caught, they would stop in the middle due to the attraction on both sides.It's a pity that when he stretched out his hand, A Hua fell down because of too much struggle, Hai Dongqing caught the air and yelled loudly: "Stupid pig! Hold me!"

A Hua froze for a moment before reaching out to grab it, but it was just so close that he couldn't catch it.Hai Dongqing couldn't see it well, so she threw herself on the ground and reached out to grab A Hua.It's a pity that it was already too late, the two of them barely hooked together with only four fingers, temporarily stopping the process of being sucked in by the Yin-Yang Cauldron.Hai Dongqing raised his head and shouted at Xie Qi: "Come and help!"

Xie Qi had been standing at the entrance of the cave, as if he was petrified, but when he heard Hai Dongqing shouting, instead of stepping forward, he took a step back.

The four fingers naturally didn't have much strength, and as the two got closer to the Yin-Yang Cauldron, the suction force also strengthened. Hai Dongqing and A Hua only lasted for two or three seconds before being pulled apart.This time, the speed of sliding towards the Yin-Yang Cauldron was faster, A Hua frantically wanted to grab something on the ground, his fingers scratched on the flat and hard ground, and soon left red marks one after another.His left hand was still subconsciously clutching the emerald eye, so the knuckles of his knuckles were ground bloody, and even the bones were exposed.While grabbing it, he yelled at Xie Qi: "Come on fucking quickly, come and pull me out! Come on! I'll give you money when I get out, and I'll give you all my money!" until his lower body was crushed After swallowing the Yin Ding, he was still shouting.But the Yin Ding closed silently and clasped it around his waist.Ahua let out a painful cry, the edge of the tripod was squeezed, his ribs made a small sound, and one by one was broken, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, dripping on the ground.He opened his mouth like a fish being fished out of the water, and finally let go of the hand holding onto the jade eye. The jade eye fell to the ground, and Gu Lulu rolled to the side along the slightly sloping ground.The closure of the Yin cauldron stopped suddenly, and the body of the cauldron turned slowly, halfway closed, the opening was aimed at the emerald eye, as if it wanted to absorb it.

Wheat suddenly understood.The sacrifice of this Yin-Yang Cauldron really requires the sacrifice of Yin and Yang, but in this cave, Yin is nothing more than the Yin eyes of Zhulong, and Yang is of course no more than the Yang eyes of Zhulong. Compared with these two eyes, he And Shao Jing is really nothing.

Of course Hai Dongqing also understood, and stretched out his hand to pull the Yang eyes on his neck.He is a little farther away from the Yang Ding, and now he is only entering the Yang Ding below his knees, and the mouth of the Ding is slowly closing, as long as he takes off the Yang eyes, there is room for him to crawl out.

Snapped!A crisp gunshot caused an echo in the cave.Hai Dongqing's hand drooped down.He raised his head, staring at Xie Qi with bloodshot eyes: "You!"

Xie Qi raised his gun expressionlessly and broke Hai Dongqing's other hand.Hai Dongqing's lower body had been swallowed into the cauldron, and the half-opened body of the cauldron opened and closed slightly like a mouth, dragging his body deeper.

Ahua's lips twitched, cursing silently.Xie Qi glanced at him, and carefully moved Yin Yan to A Hua's side with a long knife.A Hua struggled to hide, but Xie Qi directly picked up Yin Yan with the tip of the knife and put it on his back.So the Yin Ding opened and closed slightly again, swallowing A Hua bit by bit.

After tossing for a while, it was Hai Dongqing who was sucked into the Yangding first.He accepted his fate earlier than A Hua, and without saying a word, he just stared at Xie Qi with bloodshot eyes until his head was about to be swallowed into the cauldron, and then he said: "You too will die badly--"

Xie Qi didn't speak, but slightly avoided Hai Dongqing's gaze.The Yangding gradually closed, and a painful cry suddenly sounded in the cave.Through the only remaining gap, Xiaomai saw the copper thorns inside the cauldron squeezing towards the center, piercing into Hai Dongqing's body, squeezing the whole body into a strange shape.

The howling in Yang Dingli caused A Hua to struggle frantically, but one row of his ribs had been crushed, and his internal organs were also crushed. During this struggle, he began to vomit blood from his mouth.He vomited blood and cursed vaguely while being swallowed by the Yin cauldron.The emerald eyes fell from his back, but at this moment, the devouring of the Yin cauldron did not stop, until those copper thorns pierced his body, and the Yin cauldron closed, the vague howling and cursing gradually stopped.

The cave was dead silent again.Xie Qi trembled only at this time, and stood for a while with a pale face, before asking Shao Jing in a trembling voice: "Well, where are the golden books and jade slips they said? Is it behind this jade wall?"

Shao Jing struggled a bit: "You untie us first!"

Xie Qi pointed his gun at him: "Say it quickly! Otherwise, I will kill you!" His face was pale, his eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, and he looked extremely terrifying, "Say it quickly!"

Shao Jing flattened his body: "It should be behind here."

"Then, how to open this organ?"

"I do not know then."

boom!A cloud of dirt splashed on the ground beside Shao Jing's head, Xie Qi turned the muzzle of the gun to his leg: "Say it quickly! Otherwise, I'll break your leg first!"

"If I knew, how could I be deceived by them?" Shao Jing knew that he couldn't provoke Xie Qi any more at this time, this guy was almost out of control.

Xie Qi's eyeballs almost popped out: "Impossible, impossible! You lied to me, you lied to me!" He was trembling, and his fingers tightened the trigger...

"Look!" Mai Mai suddenly called out, interrupting Xie Qi's movements, "Look at that wall!"

Xie Qi looked back and was stunned.

On the light blue jade wall, starting from the bottom, red marks are slowly emerging. They are thick horizontal lines, some are long and some are short, and some are still broken in the middle.

"Bagua map--" Shao Jing murmured.

Mai Mai looked at the cauldron: "Look at that cauldron—"

The feet of the Yin and Yang tripods are now soaked in blood, and the bronze color of the tripod body has turned black and purple, like the color of blue cloth soaked in blood, making the gold and silver threads embedded in it even more splendid.No need to think about where the blood came from, Mai Mai murmured: "Maybe those copper thorns are hollow..." Hollow, suck blood from the human body, and then seep into the feet of the tripod, and then don't know how to pass through. What way—maybe there are countless pipes underground that can send blood to the jade wall—draw a diagram of the Eight Diagrams on the wall.

A series of red traces gradually emerged on the wall. The blood-red Eight Diagrams, surrounded by a huge Yin-Yang fish, looked thrilling on this light blue jade wall.The cave is too quiet, so quiet that the wheat can hear the sizzle sound, I don't know if it's my tinnitus, or the Yin-Yang cauldron is really sucking something...

The gossip map was completely presented, and the blood at the feet of the Yin-Yang Ding also dried up.The huge yin-yang fish slowly rotated, to be precise, black and white and two colors rotated around the position of the fish's eyes, as if alive.Then the position of the fish eye was gradually recessed, and two small pits appeared.

Xie Qi pointed at the wall: "Live, live?" No wonder he was afraid, this definitely doesn't look like some kind of mechanism!If it's a mechanism, even if it doesn't make any sound, it can be seen that the sunken place is not integrated with the wall.But these two fish eyes are not like this. The small pit is like something sucked the jade wall inside, and two small pits are sucked out-of course, if there is something that can suck the stone .

As soon as Xiaomai lowered his eyes, he saw a shiny thing lying on the side of the jade wall. It was a bullet that Shao Jing accidentally shot into the wall just now. There are no traces of bullets.

"Breathstone --" Shao Jing blurted out.

"What?" Mai Mai had only heard of Xi Yang.

"It's the same thing as Xi Soil. Dayu used to control the floods, and he used the Shi Soil to control the water. It's just that the world only knows the name of Xi Soil, but not the name of the Stone."

The rest soil is the soil that can grow, so the breath stone is naturally the stone that can grow.Mai Mai looked around the cave - no wonder he couldn't find the traces that Hai Dongqing had dug back then, it turned out to be Changping.

Xie Qi didn't have the time to study the rocks and soil: "Will this thing eat people?"

"how is this possible--"

Xie Qi breathed a sigh of relief: "Then why didn't it move again? What are those two pits for?"

Shao Jing said angrily: "That's a mechanism, you can't see it? This wall is a cabinet for gold books and jade slips, and those two holes are locks where keys can be put in. You have to put the key in to open the lock. .”

"Where's the key?" Xie Qi was so excited that his eyes lit up and he rubbed his hands unconsciously.

"In the cauldron." Mai Mai said gloatingly, "It's the two eyes of Zhulong."

Xie Qi was stunned.Those two eyes are now in the belly of Yin Yang Ding.

"No other keys?"

No one answered him.Although Xie Qi didn't know what kind of mechanism this was, Hai Dongqing asked A Hua to take out the emerald eyes from Shao Jing's body before offering him a sacrifice, which already showed the importance of these two eyes.However, he didn't dare to get close to those two tripods. Who knows if these tripods can still eat people?

Xie Qi raised his long knife and slashed towards the jade wall with one stroke.The wall didn't look solid, once he slashed it, one-third of the blade cut into the wall, it was easy to surprise Xie Qi.But when he pulled out the knife, he found something was wrong - the place where the knife had been cut was repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in just a few seconds, the traces of the knife cut disappeared.I don't know how thick the wall is. If he uses this method of cutting with a knife and at this speed of recovery, even if he cuts it for a day, he may not be able to cut a hole.

Xie Qi turned his head to look at the Yin-Yang Cauldron, hesitated for a while, and walked over cautiously.Man dies for money, what lies behind the jade wall is too attractive, greed wins over fear.

The Yin-Yang Cauldron was very quiet, it seemed that it was full after swallowing a person, and there was no reaction.Mai Mai glanced at Shao Jing, meaning: Will the Yin-Yang Cauldron swallow him?

Shao Jing looked solemn, and slowly shook his head.The Yin-Yang Cauldron is not a cannibal weapon, it is just a sacrificial offering, but blood needs to flow from the Cauldron into the wall.Now that the gossip map has appeared completely, there is no need for a second sacrifice.In essence, this is no different from going up the mountain to sacrifice to the mountain god, except that you may need green cattle and white horses to sacrifice to the mountain god, but you need a yin thing and a yang thing to worship the wall.

Sure enough, Xie Qi fiddled with the Yin-Yang Cauldron a few times with a long knife, but there was no response. Even the purple-black color on the Cauldron's body gradually faded, returning to its original bronze color.Xie Qi probably also understood the reason, so he bravely climbed up to the mouth of the tripod to have a look.After looking at it for a while, he climbed down, took out the climbing rope and groaned, wondering what he was changing.

Mai Mai looked at Shao Jing.Thinking on his knees, he also knew that Xie Qi would not let them go after he got the Jinshuyujian.He didn't kill them now, just because the golden book and jade slips hadn't been obtained yet, and there might be something they could be used for.

Shao Jing didn't speak.Mai Mai found that he did not know when he used some method to touch the dagger out of his body, and was cutting the climbing rope vigorously.Wheat was just a little happy, but then worried again.The toughness of the climbing rope was not comparable to that of ordinary ropes, and Shao Jing's hands were tied upside down, so it was not easy to use force. It was hard to say whether he could cut the rope before Xie Qi opened the jade wall.

Xie Qi also spent a lot of effort on that side. When he finished it, Mai Mai found that it was an iron claw, with three small steel claws on the front, and the steel claws could be closed by pulling the rope. It seems that Xie Qi wanted to hold Candle Dragon His eyes were fished out of the cauldron.

Xie Qi climbed onto the Yangding.Yangyan was still hanging on Haidongqing's neck, so it was easier for him to hook the rope, then pull the rope and hang Yangyan up.However, the Yin Eye in the Yin Cauldron rolled down to the ground and was blocked by Ahua's body, so he raised the long knife and stabbed again and again, trying to separate the body so that he could pick up the Yin Eye.For a while, the only sound in the cave was the sound of the blade piercing into flesh and bone.

Mai Mai's hearing was so good that she could even hear the sound of the knife turning in the flesh and blood clearly, and felt nauseated.He didn't want to watch this scene any more, and tried to turn his head towards the entrance of the cave.Suddenly, he heard a slight hissing sound, and the sound of something sliding on the ground, gradually approaching the entrance of the cave.Mai Mai's face changed after thinking about it: "Shao Jing, there seems to be a snake!"

There are indeed snakes.As soon as Xiaomai finished speaking, he saw several snakes swimming into the entrance of the cave.Fortunately, it was not the big snake as thick as a bowl that they saw outside, but some small gray and black snakes.Shao Jing immediately stopped his movements: "Don't make a sound, lower your head and try to hold your breath." Snakes usually have poor eyesight, but there are a pair of infrared detectors in the cheek fossa, and the body temperature of warm-blooded animals is an obvious target for them.

Xie Qi tried his best and finally caught Yinyan up. Just as he was about to be happy, he found more than a dozen snakes on the cave floor.He has lived in Sichuan for several years and knows how to deal with snakes, so he is lying on the mouth of the tripod and does not move.Because Mai and the others are closer to the entrance of the cave, and he is suspended in the air, no matter how you think about it, the snake should attack Shao Jing and Mai on the ground.

Wheat felt a snake swim past his head.Although he was still wearing a miner's cap, the rustle of the snake's body sliding over the hard plastic was clearly heard, and he had goose bumps all over his body.I don't know why, although these snakes swam past him and Shao Jing, they didn't seem to pay attention to them, and gathered towards the Yin Ding where Xie Qi was.

Xie Qi panicked.The snakes gathered in front of the Yin Ding, and the first few that swam in had already climbed up the legs of the tripod.He raised his hand uncontrollably and shot, beat the first snake to pieces, and fell to the ground.The sound of the gun alarmed all the snakes, and they scrambled to climb up.Xie Qi yelled, brandishing a knife with his left hand and shooting with his right, snake blood flew all over the place.A little snake was enraged, coiled up its body and straightened suddenly, and actually bounced towards Xie Qi's face. Xie Qi turned his head suddenly, swung out with a knife, and cut the snake in half in mid-air.But the Yang eye he was holding in his hand also fell and fell to the ground.

Yang Yan fell to the ground, and the snake climbing up the cauldron seemed to lose interest in Xie Qi, turned around and surrounded Yang Yan.Xie Qi was in shock and wiped his face, and wiped some blood from his ears, and saw that it was bright red, obviously non-toxic, so he wiped it on the front of his clothes casually: "Damn, so it was for this! "In this cave, there is probably nothing warmer than this Yangyan, right?

This made it easier.This group of snakes was only twenty or so, Xie Qi raised his gun, took advantage of the opportunity of these snakes surrounding Yangyan, shot one by one, and killed them all in half a minute, then climbed down to pick up Yangyan, whoa. One sound: "I'm so scared!"

Xiaomai was a little bit disappointed in his heart-he didn't bite him to death...... Xie Qi walked to the front of the jade wall holding the yin and yang eyes, put the two blood-stained eyes into the eye sockets of the yin and yang fish respectively, and then the jade wall opened for the first time. There was a slight sound at a time, starting from the middle of the yin-yang fish, the light blue jade slowly separated, and the exposed gap shone with golden light, although it hadn't been fully opened, Xiaomai also saw that it was a piece of white jade, It is inlaid with patterns in gold, and even after thousands of years, it is still as shiny as new...
