The Last Apostle Chapter 81: Shell Avenue

Next, Du Yuqi put cabbage stone, calcite, gravity-free fragments, Haoshi, and Porodin's seal into it in sequence. When the first few materials were put in, there was no change in the water basin. The scabbard and gemstones were lying quietly on the bottom of the water intact.

However, as soon as the Haoshi was put in, a violent chemical reaction occurred in it immediately, and the clear water in the basin immediately turned white and turbid, and then boiled. It is a stone, but a bottle of sulfuric acid!

After the last Borodin badge was thrown in, the surface of the water began to shine continuously. This thing came from ancient ruins, and it contained strange and mysterious ancient power. It was released, and then formed a powerful vortex on the surface of the water, as if a big hole had been broken under the tub, and the water was flowing out continuously.

With the rapid decrease of the water flow in the wooden basin, a group of people soon discovered that the water flow in the basin was continuously pouring into the opening of the unique bone scabbard. Being sucked in, a thin film quickly formed on the surface of the bone scabbard.

How should I put it, it seems that a layer of skin is being formed rapidly. After the last drop of water is sucked in, the surface of the scabbard is really covered with a black film. It is no longer so obtrusive, and it will not be much different from ordinary scabbards.

Du Yuqi tried to hold the scabbard again, and suddenly felt a pain in the palm of his hand, and immediately let go of his hand, and found that a small hole was punctured in the palm of his hand, and a few drops of blood flowed on the scabbard, and then It was absorbed quickly again.

He looked at the scabbard carefully, and found that there was nothing sharp in the place where he was holding it, but the "black film" formed on the surface of the scabbard was not ordinary. It is made of finely divided scales, and the edges of the scales seem to be quite sharp.

Although these scales are comfortable to hold when they are retracted, if one of the scales suddenly stands up when Du Yuqi is holding the scabbard, it may pierce Du Yuqi without any precautions. palm of the hand.

Shortly after inhaling Du Yuqi's blood, the color of the scabbard also began to change, from dark black to a blue-black color, and at the same time, the spiritual imprint inside was triggered again In Du Yuqi's mind, the next message began to flash repeatedly:

"Oshado."

Du Yuqi meditated several times in her heart, then turned her head and said:

"The next prompt appears, it is Oshado."

The group of people looked at each other in blank dismay, and they didn't seem to know this place, Yangzi said at this time:

"The pronunciation of Oshaduo seems to be a bit old. I have been to the chapel here before, and I heard the scriptures recited by the elders have similar pronunciations. I will go and find out for you. There should be many years ago."

Soon, news came from Yangzi:

"Oshaduo was called more than 300 years ago. Now it is called the Lansat Ruins here. This place is not difficult to find, but you need to leave the city."

After hearing the news, Du Yuqi also felt a little helpless. If he wanted to leave the city, it would mean that he would lose the protection of the Steel Bear Knights. The momentum of victory is in full swing, once they are targeted, it will be so troublesome.

Fortunately, at this time, the furious Knights of the Steel Bear launched four or five consecutive campaigns against Cantwin. , for the local snakes who have been entrenched here for decades, this kind of suppression is undoubtedly quite effective. I believe that most of the dark men of the Zero (ZERO) organization were brutally murdered under this kind of suppression, and the remaining orders received It should be lurking and standing still, with the priority of saving oneself.

Under such circumstances, Du Yuqi felt that as long as he strictly controlled and kept the secret, he could still be sure that he would not be detected by the other party. After discussing with his companions, Du Yuqi decided to go alone. Do the smallest possible goal.

Although it is very dangerous to enter the ruins at the same time, Du Yuqi did not enter rashly, but entered with relevant tokens. ) organizations, so minimize the risk of being discovered by them.

At this time, Du Yuqi and the others had already moved to another place to live, and the one who helped before, Walteri, had an unusual identity. She has a detached position on Cantwin's side, so helping Du Yuqi and the others is also a matter of little effort.

The next morning, Du Yuqi went on the road after undergoing a makeover. At this time, even if he stood face to face with Lin and the others, it is estimated that Lin and the others would not be able to recognize the deity. Next, it took Du Yuqi an hour, and after changing three carriages in a row, he stood on the street of Kantwin again. His attire and appearance at this time were the same as those of travelers from other places, unless he was close After a targeted and careful search, his identity will almost never be found out.

***

Of course Du Yuqi, who was standing on the street, didn't know how to get to the Lansat Ruins, but he was rich, so of course he could find someone to take him there, so he called a vehicle commonly known as a "land boat" by the locals. To put it simply, it is a two-wheeled vehicle pulled by a camel. People can sit on the bottom of the roof, while the top of the roof is quite flat and can be stacked with heavy goods. The carriage looks like a boat, hence the name.

Lu Chuan's driver is a middle-aged man in his forties, with beards all over his face, he looks very weathered, but he can be seen to be cheerful and talkative. From his mouth, I learned that the Nalansat Ruins are only called by outsiders, because there is indeed a ruins there, but the locals usually call that place Mass Burial Mound.

Criminals who were executed, unclaimed corpses, dead bodies left by murderers, etc., etc., will be thrown there casually, and there was a plague in Cantwin 30 years ago, and they died of illness There are at least thousands of people, and the corpses of these people were all abandoned there, so strangers should not approach there, and only a small number of people who are interested in the ruins will go there.

Obviously, the driver regarded Du Yuqi as a kind of curious tourist, so he kindly emphasized the danger of going to the mass grave, trying to dispel the rash impulse of this generous gentleman. He nodded with a smile, but he kept emphasizing his pursuit and love for art.

But at this moment, Lu Chuan suddenly turned and walked onto a wide avenue. This avenue has a wide view, and two rows of neat coconut trees are planted on both sides, and the houses on both sides also look like Somewhat peculiar, the small red stone building with a mottled surface has a total of three floors. It looks like it has been devastated for a long time, like an ancient relic.

And these houses have stones of the same material, uniform style, and uniform color, but from the colorful clothes, sheets, underwear and other things that are drying on them, it can be seen that the people living in The people inside are still civilians.

The camels also ran happily on this road, and their speed increased suddenly. However, when Du Yuqi discovered that the patterns on the sidewalks on both sides of the avenue were inlaid with shells, he felt a sudden movement in his heart. As if something was caught, he knocked on the wooden board next to him:

"What is the name of this road?"

"Shell Avenue, sir. Isn't it quite surprising to see such a road in such a place full of yellow sand and dust?" The coachman once again showed his true nature of chatter:

"I thought so when I saw this road for the first time. It is a miracle. I think it can be as great as the Hanging City! These shells were dug out when the road was built. , It is said that hundreds of years ago, there was a lake at all~IndoMTL.com~It is very suitable for this kind of shells to grow in large quantities, but the lake dried up, so they became extinct until they were dug out during road construction”

Du Yuqi stared silently at the shells used to pave the floor. He was not as superficial as the coachman. From the patterns, it could be seen that these shells were all of the same type, but the sizes of the shells were very different. There are large ones to the size of the pinky finger, and the number is very uniform.

A lake that can breed such a large number of shells must have a large area, and there will be rivers flowing into it. Under normal circumstances, even if it dries up, it will go through a cycle of three to five years. With this buffer Time is enough for these shells to be moved along the river, so most of these shells dug out under normal circumstances should be the size of a palm and died naturally.

However, the shells used to pave the road at this time are evenly distributed in large, medium and small sizes. What does this mean? It shows that these shells died instantly in a short time when they became extinct.

It's like archaeologists discovered a cemetery. Under normal circumstances, the cemetery should be mostly middle-aged and elderly people, with few teenagers or children. If the proportion of teenagers in this cemetery is surprisingly high, it is close to the society When the proportion of living people on the scale is higher, it goes without saying that there must have been a large-scale plague, or else a heinous massacre. This principle can naturally be applied to shells.
