Keyboard Immortal Chapter 521: Gumantong
Zuan smiled slightly and held Pei Mianman's soft little hand: "Not only in this secret realm, but even outside, she has helped me a lot."
Pei Mianman was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect him to suddenly hold hands, but now that the crisis is over, she relaxed all over, and instead held the other's hand, leaning gently on his shoulder, her cheeks were as beautiful as flowers.
Looking at the two people hugging each other closely, Mi Li was speechless for a while, what the **** did she do? She had to witness such a loving couple.
Rage from Mili +333!
She simply returned to Tai Ajian, out of sight and out of mind.
Aware of her anger value, Zaan also knew that she had annoyed her, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't stop making out with Da Manman in the future. The queen sister should get used to it.
If Mi Li knew what he was thinking at this time, I would be very angry.
At this time, Pei Mianman said, "Azu, do we want to go down?"
Actually, she is enjoying the rare warmth now, and does not want to break the feeling of this moment and step into the unknown danger.
Zuan nodded: "Well, in addition to the way out, there may be great opportunities..."
He roughly recounted the chat with Mili just now, and at the same time, he thought that this should also be one of the twelve "unspeakable places", and there is a secret book hidden in it. What new features will the keyboard warrior system open?
Pei Mianman is not very interested in any chance, she just thought that staying here is not the way, it is better to go out and spend time with him forever.
The two reached an agreement and set off for the underground stairs.
When passing by the cauldron, I found that the evil spirits in it had disappeared, and only two bones were left of the crocodile and the gluttonous glutton.
Zuan noticed two peculiar bones in it, with quaint circles of lines on them, and a faint glimmer of electricity.
He remembered that these should be the two horns on Taotie's head, which must be extraordinary items that can emit lightning, so he put them away.
He subconsciously turned his head to look at the skeleton of the giant gluttonous glutton under the steps. The two horns were even bigger and presumably more precious.
When he was about to pick it up, he stepped on the steps and suddenly made a strange melody. The air around him became a little colder, and the flames on the two rows of the steps flickered and became flickering. .
Zuan retracted his feet in an instant, what a joke, he didn't want to inspire the evil spirits again, this time he didn't have any sacrifices.
Although he was a little unwilling, he could only give up the idea of hitting those two giant horns.
The two took off a torch each and walked down the dark tunnel.
The steps are not straight, but meander down, as if going down around a pillar.
The walls along the way are engraved with many merchants and warriors, and there are also various patterns such as cloud dragon pattern, gluttonous pattern, thunder pattern, bird and animal pattern, etc.
Zuan is not an expert on this subject, and can only judge vaguely based on the documentary he watched in a previous life.
He originally wanted to ask Mi Li for help, but unfortunately Mi Li seemed really **** off and never responded to his inquiries.
As for Pei Mianman, he just acted like a psychic, but unfortunately now that ability seems to have suddenly disappeared, and seeing this, he can't say why.
I don't know how long it took, and the two finally finished the stairs and came to the level ground.
A solemn and quaint avenue is straight ahead. The avenue is paved with countless huge and neat stone slabs. To achieve this level, I don't know how much human and material resources are required.
The two of them walked forward with torches, and they didn't know how long they had walked. Suddenly, Pei Mianman exclaimed and shrank into Zu An's arms: "Azu..."
Zuan followed her gaze and found that there were deep pits on both sides of the avenue. The scale of these pits was not as big as the one outside, but the same was that the pits were filled with white bones.
Zuan patted Pei Mianman's hand as a sign of comfort, and came to the pit to observe carefully. The pit was not deep, only a few meters in size, so it couldn't trap people at all.
However, he was worried that there was some mechanism at the bottom of the pit, or that the strange snakes from before were hidden in the bones. After the dangers that I didn't worry about, I jumped down to check it out.
"Azu, come up quickly!" Pei Mianman was really reluctant to go down, and at the same time was worried that something would happen to Zu An below.
Zuan inspected it for a while and then jumped up: "These should be some sacrifice pits. Unlike the pits outside before, these bones seem to be thicker and burlier, and obviously they have more nutrition during their lifetime than the guys in the pits outside. Good."
"You mentioned before that this is probably where the tombs of the Yin and Shang kings are located. The standard of sacrifices that you want to come here must be higher than those outside." Pei Mianman also analyzed.
"Yes," Zaun had a similar judgment, "but what's more striking is that the bones outside are not traumatized, but the bones in this pit are all separated."
The bodies of the skeletons in the tunnel are on one side, and the heads are scattered in the other direction. It is impossible to tell whose head is whose.
"For the captured nobles or warriors of the enemy country, it is best to sacrifice by beheading." Pei Mianman said suddenly.
Zuan looked at her in surprise: "???"
After saying these few words, Pei Mianman also covered his mouth in panic, and after a long time he breathed out: "I don't know why, I just said it subconsciously, could I be Are you in the dark?"
She is extremely worried now. She has just established a relationship with Zaun, and the future is full of hope. She doesn't want to go out on her own.
What happened.
Zuan said in a deep voice, "You shouldn't be in the middle of the evil situation. I think it's mostly related to this place. You don't have to be afraid, it's not necessarily a bad thing."
He thought of Mi Li's previous analysis, maybe this secret realm really needs the cooperation of the two.
After some comfort from him, Pei Mianman calmed down a little, but he was still a little uneasy, and he didn't have the warm feeling he usually had.
The two of them walked all the way, and found several similar pits one after another. The skeletons inside were all separated, and together there were about a thousand skeletons.
Although the number is not as large as in the big pit outside, you must know that all the bones here are the bones of local nobles and high-level warriors, and the quality is far better than the outside.
Feeling the trembling of Pei Mianman's body, Zaan pulled her forward quickly, wanting to leave this place as soon as possible.
But after walking for a while, he had to stop, because of the scene in front of him, no matter how daring he was, his scalp was tingling.
Because there is another sacrifice pit in front of me, this pit is smaller than the previous one, but the contents inside are very special.
Because there are 17 babies sitting in it, not baby skeletons, but exactly what babies look like, except for the dark body and all kinds of weird patterns on the skin.
Zuan would even think they were alive if they hadn't been aware of their breathing!
"How could someone be so cruel, even a baby." Pei Mianman bit her lip tightly, and her tone was mixed with fear and anger.
Zuan said solemnly: "In the world in my dream, there is a country called Thailand. In ancient times in Thailand, there was a general called Khun Paen, who conquered a city. The leader of this city gave his daughter as a gift. to Khun Paen, so Khun Paen got married and lived in the city until his wife got pregnant. But later, the relationship between Khun Paen and the leader continued to deteriorate, and finally the leader asked his daughter to poison his meal in Khun Paen , to kill Khun Paen, and Khun Paen learned of the plan and stabbed his wife to death first in revenge. After his wife died, Khun Paen cut open his wife's belly and took out the baby, Taking him to a temple, he first raised a fire, then wrapped the baby's upper body in a cloth with scriptures written on it, and baked it on the fire until the baby's body was small and completely dry. The whole process , Khun Paen has been reciting the scriptures. When the whole ceremony is over, the baby has become a lively soul who can talk to him. Khun Paen named him 'Gumantong' and took it to battle the Quartet. , can be said to be invincible.”
Zu An paused, looked at the scene of the sacrificial pit in front of him, and said: "And these babies look a lot like the legendary 'Gumantong'. I didn't expect Yin merchants to use such vicious methods." /
As soon as he finished speaking, the corpses of babies whose eyes were closed suddenly opened their eyes, each with a red light, and slowly crawled from the bottom of the pit to where the two were.
