Harry Potter and the Rise of the Ordinary Person Chapter 81:
walked for about twenty steps, a large area of flat ground appeared in front of them, on which some stone chairs were neatly arranged, and the stone chairs relied on some brown objects. The two walked across the bridge and saw that not only did they grow their mouths together, but Julie stepped back and almost sat on the ground.
The brown object leaning on the stone chair turned out to be a corpse. The corpse was covered with a film, which looked even more frightening. At first they didn't understand what was going on, but when Joe noticed the water droplets dripping from the stalactites above his head, he suddenly realized it.
It turns out that these brown objects are human stalagmites made using the principle of forming stalactites!
When water penetrates into the crevices of limestone, it will dissolve the calcium carbonate in it, and every stalactite and stalagmite comes from these water droplets containing calcium carbonate. When the water slowly leaks downwards, the calcium carbonate inside will deposit a little and accumulate on the roof of the cave or on the ground, after many years of accumulation. The deposited calcium carbonate will gradually grow, eventually forming stalactites at the top of the cave and stalagmites at the bottom of the cave. When the stalactites are connected to the stalagmites, stone pillars are formed.
And these corpses in front of me use this principle. It made the water droplets from the top of the cave continuously drip on the top of the corpse's head, and then fell on the top of the corpse's head, flowing all over the body, using some unknown method to speed up the deposition of calcium carbonate, and finally put the outer bread on these corpses. Layer stone film. It reminded Joe of ancient Egyptian mummies. They also chose to wrap the corpse with some special things for preservation, but in terms of material selection, the protective layer of calcium carbonate in front of them was obviously more powerful than the cloth strips coated with preservatives. These stone membranes are uneven in thickness: for the thick ones, the stone membranes are almost as thick as the stalactites outside, and the corpse exists for about the same time as the entire cave. The thin ones, the stone membrane barely wraps the corpses, and will not exist for more than 100 years. These corpses are accumulated from generation to generation. Their faces are clearly visible under the ice-like stalactites, and their bodies are as complete as they were before they were alive. If they hadn't closed their eyes, it would be hard to imagine that they were all dead.
"Look at their dresses." Julie suddenly said next to him, "The thick ones were the same as the murals at first, and then they started to be different. Obviously they are descendants of the people on the murals!"
You are right. Joe pointed to a large stone stele on the seat. It said: The sage is with us. Even if he has passed away, we are willing to guard his graveyard. We believe that when we are in danger At that time, the sage will return and guide us on the right path!
After listening to Joe’s translation, Julie was silent for a while, bowed deeply at these corpses, and then sighed sincerely, "This is really creepy artwork, but it's also a great artwork!"
Joe nodded in agreement. He counted. There are more than forty corpses. This means that this custom has been passed on for more than 1,000 years, which is about the same time as Joe found that the sage existed in the history books. long. Qiao was very curious about what kind of person a sage was, and what kind of personality charm it possessed, allowing them to leave the corpse here after generations of death to guard the sage's graveyard.
After seeing this spectacle, Joe and Julie's hearts are mixed. Although they are full of interest in the fire of Nirvana, they feel strange when they think that the cemetery of the sages is in front of them. I disturbed a respectable elder. But often no matter what kind of reverence they have in their hearts, it is difficult for people to turn a blind eye to the treasures in front of them, even if they know that there must be a lot of curses in front of them, but in the end their interest in the fire of Nirvana still prevailed in their hearts. Decided to move on.
walked about 50 meters again, a large mist appeared in front of the two of them. These white mists, restrained by the power of magic, were firmly attached to the ground and fixed in a large area in front of the two of them. It's hiding something.
The two got into the mist cautiously, and Joe found that Julie's breathing became thicker, and the "plateau red" on her face became more serious. He hesitated for a while, trying to persuade him, but when he saw the girl's determined eyes, the words came to a halt. This is Julie. Although she is very talkative most of the time, she has very strong self-esteem and sometimes very stubborn, just like the lion represented by Gryffindor.
It took a short while. The two came out of the fog. Even though they had experienced so many unimaginable things along the way, this time Joe and Julie were still surprised and lost. If the stalactite just made Joe Surprised by the magical workmanship of the cave and the consistency of the common people, then the sight in front of him made Joe completely admire the designer's five bodies.
What appeared in front of the two of them was not a simple tomb or a trap, but a huge city! Compared with Joe's current location, the topography of this city is much lower, so standing in Joe's position just can overlook the entire city. But because of this, Joe and Julie felt a shock from the heart even more.
This is an ancient city with a mixture of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Viewed from a high place, the whole city is in an unconventional round shape, as if it were drawn on the ground with a compass and a ruler. All the buildings are scattered and scattered, and they seem to be a little messy, but after careful observation, I feel that their arrangement has a special rule, and when combined, there is a natural beauty, just like nature's hand-made creations. One house and one house, one floor and one wall, all reveal a natural charm. This is supposed to be nature's patent, and it is a realm that is difficult for humans to reach. But now, it was presented to Joe in an artificial way. Apart from worship, Joe couldn't think of other words to describe his mood.
What’s even more powerful is that this city, which is obviously more than 1,000 years old, is actually undamaged. Brick by brick is as if it was just built, spotlessly clean. If it weren’t for the slightest human relationship in the city, Joe would have regarded it as A thriving new city~IndoMTL.com~In the middle of the city, there is a huge circle with a diameter of about 50 meters and a height of seven or eight times that of other buildings. It stands out there, and other buildings are like The stars held it like a moon. The altar stands up in a conical shape, giving the impression that it is a bit like a circular pyramid. Under the super vision given by the magic transformation, Joe saw that this was a jet-black spire, which was the center of the altar, with a cane inserted. This cane was very similar to the one on the previous screen, and was tall The dark rod body has a spherical head with a cross-shaped mark on it, which exudes a peculiar force. Looking from a distance, the surrounding area is so bright, but there is such a feeling that the light seems to be sucked in by it. Not only the light, but the cane seems to **** in the surrounding temperature.
A yin wind blew across Joe's back, and the hair on Joe's neck suddenly stood up, and he suddenly felt an inexplicable panic. There is no reason, just like the sixth sense in the legend, there is no reason to feel that way.
"Julie, we have to get out of here quickly!" Joe felt his temple thump. He was looking towards the city, the natural charm disappeared so suddenly, replaced by a kind of solemnity and gloom, just like a **** battlefield after a fight, full of countless dead souls.
No, it's too evil here. Joe thought. "Julie, we must go quickly." However, Julie behind him did not respond at all.
Just as Joe was about to look back and see what was going on, there was a plop behind him~ IndoMTL.com~ Book friends are welcome to visit and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all ~ IndoMTL .com~For mobile phone users, please go to read.
