Chapter 15 chapter 14
The two of them walked in fear during the last part of the road, for fear that something dangerous would suddenly appear in a corner. After all, the closer to the secret, the more dangerous it was, and this was obviously not a place for pedestrians to rest their feet.
The hall is circular, and in the middle of the stone wall facing the exit of the long corridor, there is a complicated pattern engraved, but perhaps the pattern is too old to be clear, even with a [-]x magnifying glass, it may not be able to recognize it.
When only a few steps away from the exit, Yan Xiao saw clearly the appearance of the path before the exit.The path, to be precise, is the stone slab placed on the pillar, which has been hollowed out with many diamond-shaped holes. Looking down from the top, you can still see the sparkling water below.People stepping on it are like fish caught in a fishing net, unable to break free or escape.Yan Xiao suddenly became aroused and stopped suddenly.
Shan Heyi, who was following Yan Xiao closely, didn't expect him to stop suddenly, and ran into Yan Xiao's back before he could stop.
Yan Xiao almost fell face down on the big net, took a staggered step, and supported the stone walls on both sides with both hands to barely keep her beauty. She turned her head and glared at Shan Heyi angrily. He picked up Shan Heyi and rolled it on the spot. When he looked back, he saw three short arrows stabbed obliquely on the stone slab less than one meter away.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the tingling sensation of thousands of ants gnawed on his body, Yan Xiao silently greeted all the eighteen generations of ancestors of the people who built the "big net" in the mountain, and his body was not idle , got up in a jiffy, and picked up the stupid Shan Heyi along the way.
The numbness from the soles of the feet spread to the whole body. After standing up, the feeling not only did not weaken, but also continued to increase. The two walked in unison, and they seemed to jump back to the corridor when they came.
The tingling feeling brought by the electric current has not yet passed, and there was another "whoosh" in her ear. This time, Yan Xiao became more careful, and stopped rolling on the "big net" without thinking, grabbing Shan Heyi, Dodging the three arrows, he ran to the depths of the corridor.
Just after taking a step, he suddenly stopped, the candlelight on the wall reflected countless arrows, and the calm current in the air was stirred coldly and tensely by the fast-moving arrows.
How can this agency turn their faces when they turn their faces? Didn't they just go well and get along very happily? What's the trouble? !
In the current situation, anyone with eyes knows how to choose, and the chance of surviving is high.
As soon as they stepped on the big net, the sudden electric current made the hairs all over their bodies explode, and the pain and numbness from the soles of their feet urged them to keep changing their feet. If you look around, you might be able to find a switch and turn it off.
His idea is very good, but the reality does not allow them to "walk around". As long as they walk the wrong way, the current will increase, and the pain on the soles of their feet can make them jump tens of meters up, but they are walking the right way. , the current will gradually decrease.
Yan Xiao and Shan Heyi walked slowly along the so-called correct path. As long as you don't go the wrong way and don't stop, the current will not increase. Once you violate it, it can make you unable to stop.This electric current seems to have become fine.
Yan Xiao stared at the big net under his feet thoughtfully. The numbness on the soles of his feet gradually became weaker with their steps. He could not care about it but could not completely ignore it.
Who built this city on a hill?Why did he or they spend so much effort building such a huge project in the deep mountains? At first glance, the "big net" seems to be spread randomly on the pillars standing in the water. After walking up, it is found that it is orderly. The position of the pillars is also regular, surrounding like a mountain road. The difference is that the mountain road gets closer to the middle. The higher it is, the lower the pillars are towards the middle.So this small path like a big net goes around the circle and leads to the middle.
Coupled with the current on the soles of the feet, it is obvious that it is urging people to go to the middle. What is in the middle?As long as people step on this big net, there is no turning back. No, it should be said that there is no turning back when they step into the secret path discovered by them. No wonder there are no dangers along the way. Move forward very cooperatively, so there is no need to rush, and no coercive measures will be triggered.
Yan Xiao lowered his head in thought, the gaps between the diamond-shaped holes were densely engraved with several small tube-like lines, with the middle protruding and the two sides curving down.Taking advantage of the situation to look at both sides of the stone slab, there are indeed strange raised lines.
The remaining lines, rubbed against the fingertips, are smooth and worn out, making people sad. For some reason, unwillingness and hurt emotions surged into my heart, and I was so depressed that I could hardly breathe.Suddenly, a tingling sensation came from the soles of his feet, instantly breaking him out of the inexplicable emotions.
Yan Xiao stood up suddenly with one hand on his forehead. The double torture of body and mind made him want to leave this place quickly. Although he didn't squat for a long time, the speed of standing up was too fast, which still made him uncontrollable He swayed, took a few steps back, and bumped his forearm into the thin but warm arms, which could be called the only warm existence at this moment.
Yan Xiao turned her head, only to see Shan Heyi looking at her worriedly, and couldn't help but smile and comfort the frightened boy.Perhaps it was because of turning back and stopping still, the boy's brows were deeply frowned, and his small face could hardly hold back his usual expression, but the worry in his eyes really existed.
Yan Xiao led Shan Heyi forward slowly at the previous speed, and the two resumed communication when the pain from the soles of their feet was no longer so noticeable.
Although he was used to the pain in the soles of his feet, Shan Heyi's face turned paler, probably because he was hungry. After all, they hadn't eaten for such a long time, and they experienced physical and psychological fear. Yan Xiao was worried about him for a while. Will be unable to hold on and fall down, so he has to carry him out, tsk, it's... troublesome!
Shan Heyi, who still didn't know that he had upgraded from a "little trouble to throw food" to "the biggest trouble to be carried out", heard Yan Xiao's discovery, walked to both sides, bent down to observe the "big pipe". The pace is still at the same speed as Yan Xiao.
The patterns on the "big pipes" on both sides are clearer than those in the middle of the stone slab. Seeing this, Shan Heyi frowned, and involuntarily slowed down his steps.
Yan Xiao looked left and right for himself, as if he was walking leisurely, with a smile embedded in the corner of his mouth, but this smile did not look gentle on his perennially gentle face, but was still "hissing" and breathing cold air.
On the surrounding stone walls, apart from the largest pattern facing the exit of the corridor, there are also some relatively small patterns that circle the stone wall one after another.
Shan Heyi saw the pattern on the "big tube", Yan Xiao saw it too, and they didn't notice anything just by looking at it. Now, comparing the two, hey, they are the same publisher, exactly the same, as if they were fake!
Yan Xiao's master specially trained his memory, and there is no other person in the world with such a superb memory, even the youngest general in the current Global Alliance who was admired and grew up with incomparable intelligence and physical abilities Nothing compares to him.
What?How did he know?
Uh, let’s not mention this.
Looking at the level of rigor, the order of the patterns on the "big tube" should be the same as that on the stone wall. Of course, this is not important. The patterns that can be solemnly engraved on the stone wall must not be ordinary patterns. They often have special patterns. Yan Xiao is more inclined to believe that they are totems.
Although the pattern on the "big tube" is relatively clear, it is still difficult to identify it. We can only speculate that it is the head of an animal... through some relatively simple patterns.
Yan Xiao silently brought the deduced pattern into the pattern on the stone wall, and then... shuddered, it felt like entering a hall surrounded by 108 Buddha statues. Those Buddha statues were not aggressive, but the awe seemed to be What grows in the bone does not need a medium, and it can be triggered at the touch of a button.
In fact, to put it bluntly, those Buddha statues are made to look like people, and they are also fierce. Once people enter, they will be under the eyes of "all eyes", and they are discouraged.
Strangely, these animal totems also have this effect, as if the person in these totems is really the most authoritative person.
Yan Xiao shook her head, trying to get rid of this thought, it must be... It must be because she is not full that she is afraid of these invisible things!
A trace of cool air penetrates through the soles of the shoes, penetrates into the soles of the feet, and then spreads to every part of the body, washing away the dry heat brought by summer.The feeling of heat due to the weather has dissipated as early as the rainstorm, but the accumulated heat in the body is not easy to dissipate.
The two of them walked through the long and encircling net, and arrived at the real big net that was laid flat on the water.The stone slabs here seem to be thinner and thinner than those in other places, and the ups and downs of the water hastened the erosion of the pattern, and it can only be vaguely seen that there were small tubes and totems on it.
The network-shaped stone path that the spirituality used to urge them to move forward with electric currents is a bend that leads directly to the large net suspended on the water. It can be said that this large net is the center of the entire hall.The big net is circular. If you look at it from the top, this big net is perfectly embedded in the surrounding stone road, and the whole rope net is a petrified version that is lifted up by water at the most concave point in the middle of the big rope net.
After stepping into the big net, the numbness on the soles of the feet disappeared, and it seamlessly connected with the trail, but there was no electric current here. Yan Xiao felt it was amazing, and couldn't help but understand the cause of it in his mind, and finally concluded that this place must not be Simple!
In the center of the big net, there is a platform with a regular octagonal bottom. Yan Xiao walked around the platform and found that seven sides were engraved with complicated patterns, and only one side had stairs. leading to the stage.
There are seven stairs, and each time you go up, the pattern becomes more gorgeous, and the color changes from black stone to colorful.
This table should be the most valuable thing, it is well protected, the pattern engraved on the table body is clearly visible, there are only some traces left by the years, it is not as vicissitudes as the stone path.
The pattern of the first level is very simple, a few mountains, plus a few animals of various types, either static or moving, or walking or lying down, the color is also the most common stone black, which has the visual sense of black and white movies.
After the second level, the content is much richer. It is no longer a variety of animals living in the same mountain forest without disturbing each other. There are conflicts and connections between various races.
It was at the fourth level that people appeared, but Yan Xiao couldn't understand the behavior of these people. According to ordinary people's perception, people hunt and kill animals, the meat can be used to fill their stomachs, and the skin can be used to make clothes to keep out the cold .But the people here are leading different animals to fight in the lush forest. Well, Yan Xiao inexplicably reads from this ancient painting that a group of punks are fighting and fighting on the street.How to put it, maybe after thousands of years, there will be no scenes of street fights, and people will think that street fights are full of ancient charm.
Yan Xiao was even more inexplicable when he saw the scenes after the fourth level. Those animals became extremely huge. Ask him how he could see the difference in size in such paintings?On this side of the stairs, there is a cub and the mother beast. The cub is as small as a fly just learning to fly, while the mother beast is like a fly swatter. The difference in size cannot be eliminated for hundreds of years.
On the other side of the stairs, a man and a beast are sitting on both sides of the table. There are two wine glasses on the table, and the man is holding a wine jug to pour wine for the beast. The two creatures of different types have surprisingly the same expression, with curved eyebrows and eyes. Ben, like... have a good chat?
In the middle of the stairs, there was a scene in a mountain forest. Those beasts walked together in twos and threes. Seeing this, Yan Xiao could only think of one word - good sisters shopping hand in hand.
Afterwards, it seemed that a war broke out. This war was not just for the sake of superiority like the previous fights, but an organized and disciplined, restricted-level fight scene where there were murders and arson. The scene was chaotic, and people and animals were displaced.
Later, the flames of war faded away, and the various races reunited to rebuild their homes.The last step is like a big group photo, everyone is smiling, every animal is moving with joy, and there is also a wolf standing on a high place, gazing into the distance.
When Yan Xiao stepped onto the high stage, he was slightly taken aback by the scene in his eyes. Different from the elegance and beauty of the steps, this stage was simply... chaotic.It’s not that there are dirty things everywhere on it, on the contrary, everything is where it should be, and there is not even a single extra leaf on it. The sense of chaos is the emotion of the countertop itself, which hits people’s hearts directly at first glance.
