Chapter 446 Abyss? Ghost cave?
Chen Ziyan didn’t know what Hei Jingyan was thinking at this time, and he didn’t want to know what Hei Jingyan was thinking. All his attention at this moment was focused on what the blue-robed Tibetan just said. After thinking about it, he asked:
"If the King of Hell comes from the Demon Kingdom, can I understand that the ability of the King of Hell comes from the Demon Kingdom?"
"It can also be said that ." After thinking for a moment, the blue-robed Tibetan nodded slightly.
He now understood what Chen Ziyan wanted to express, but he did not have the slightest objection. On the contrary, he agreed very much.
There is a clear record of this in the clan's classics. The power of the King of Hell comes from the treasure house of the Demon Kingdom, so there is nothing wrong with Chen Ziyan's statement.
"So I suspect that the impact we received at these two altars is most likely not due to the shadow that is suspected of being the King of Hell, but the two altars themselves have similar abilities." Chen Ziyan After getting approval, he took the opportunity to express his thoughts.
This was also the first thought that came to his mind after he noticed something was wrong, that is, the problem was not the external influence of the so-called King of Hell, but the altar itself in the underground space.
This is why Chen Ziyan deliberately asked the blue-robed Tibetan whether there was any relationship between the King of Hell and the Demon Kingdom.
"Mr. Chen, you mean... the reason why we got into trouble was because of the altar?" Hu Bayi asked with a frown.
This is not good news for them, because this effect has been proved twice, and it is difficult to detect it without any warning.
If it comes from external forces, they can still find ways to avoid it, but if it comes from the altar itself, there is nothing they can do about it.
Chen Ziyan also frowned. Although they could find it in time every time, if this problem is not solved, any decision they make next will inevitably be doubtful.
Wang Kaixuan looked unconcerned: "I said, why do you think so much? No matter how evil this thing is, it has no impact on us. It's useless. We have encountered it twice now. , are you afraid of encountering him twice more?”
Although these words are a bit imprecise, they are really rough and unreasonable.
Although it is dangerous to have their minds silently affected, since they have been able to get through it twice safely, there is no reason why they will stumble the next time they face it without being prepared.
But the idea is beautiful, but Chen Ziyan will not just let it go. He plans to put some restrictions on it and equip himself with an insurance policy.
After thinking about it for a while, he said to Wang Kaixuan and Chen Wenjin: "Fat man, Miss Chen, can you please plug up your ears later?"
"Ah? Plug your ears to dry it up. Well?" Wang Kaixuan didn't expect that Chen Ziyan would suddenly ask like this, and his face was full of doubts.
But Chen Wenjin reacted immediately: "Master Chen, what do you mean... let us bear the final insurance?"
It is not difficult to see what Chen Ziyan meant, that is, he wanted to use Chen Wenjin and Wang Kaixuan as their insurance.
Things are silently guided. This is something without warning, but being unable to avoid it does not mean that there is no way to save it. Didn't they realize it after the fact these two times?
What Chen Ziyan is doing now is to make this kind of 'awareness' controllable.
After blocking the ears, it means actively blocking external information, so that when they make the next key decision, the person whose ears are blocked can look at the problem from the most objective perspective. If They were misled again and were able to detect it this way.
Chen Wenjin is the person specially selected by Chen Ziyan. She is smart and calm enough to take on this task. As for why Wang Kaixuan is added, it is because although this guy is a bit uneducated, he is a wild man. It's not useless, sometimes hitting the wrong one can be a way out.
"Yes, are you willing?" Chen Ziyan nodded to Chen Wenjin, indicating that she was right.
The reason why he asked the two people for their opinions was because this matter was not without risks. You must know that in a place like this, no one knows what crisis will suddenly arise, although hearing is not as important as vision. , but the lack of hearing at critical moments is also extremely dangerous.
"I have no problem." Chen Wenjin said without hesitation.
Of course she knew the hidden dangers of doing so, but she also knew the benefits to herself of agreeing to it.
This represents Chen Ziyan’s recognition of himself.
You must know that she is not the only one who can do this. Huo Ling next to her can also do it. Chen Wenjin will not give up such a good thing.
"What about you, Fatty?" Chen Ziyan nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Wang Kaixuan, who had just figured out what was going on.
"Me? It must be no problem." Wang Kaixuan agreed more happily. He felt that Chen Ziyan didn't even need to ask, he could just say no.
Chen Ziyan didn't say anything more, just patted the fat man on the shoulder.
Wang Kaixuan has many shortcomings, but he also has many advantages, and giving full trust to those who agree is one of them.
After the two of them blocked their ears, Chen Ziyan looked at the others: "Guys, let's study what to do next."
They can't linger here indefinitely. Going down, material supplies are not a condition that limits them, but they do not have enough time.
Shirley Yang and others who are cursed will get worse and worse if they continue to stay here.
Chen Ziyan feels that in this place where the power of imaginary space is everywhere, the phrase "living like years" is really not a lie, but a true description of what happened to them.
Hu Bayi said helplessly: "Mr. Chen, we are stuck now. There is no mention of curses on this mural."
He also wanted to make a difference, and even wished he could solve the curse now, but he was powerless!
Shirley Yang comforted: "Don't worry, we are only conducting a preliminary exploration here, and we may soon find clues about the curse."
Black eyes turned his gaze Looking at the abyss under the stone platform, he made his own suggestion: "I think we might be able to focus on this."
The situation of the altar is basically visible at a glance, and there are things hidden on the stone platform and walls. Everything has been revealed before our eyes. If there is any clue where there may be clues, it is only in the dark abyss in front of us.
“Let’s go and have a look.” Chen Ziyan nodded and walked towards the edge of the stone platform with a searchlight in hand.
Although they didn't want to admit it, they did deliberately ignore this abyss.
Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of well ropes for ten years.
You must know that the curse of Hu Bayi and the others was entangled when they looked at the ghost cave in Jingjue Ancient City. Now that there is such a similar abyss in front of them, they are not afraid of it. That's a lie.
Even Chen Ziyan is like this. If he hadn't been hit by two altars in succession, Chen Ziyan might not have taken this abyss too seriously, but these consecutive hits made him have to be vigilant. After all, he The blood in his body showed no performance at all in front of the silent guidance of the altar, which made him have to doubt that the blood would do the same when facing the abyss.
No matter how you look at it, this holy land of the Evil Luohai people looks like an upgraded version of the ancient city of Jingjue. There is no guarantee that this abyss is not an upgraded version of the ghost cave. How could he not take some precautions. The few people had just reached the edge of the stone platform, and before they had time to look down, a cool air flow came towards them.
The coldness of this air flow could no longer be blocked by clothing. It caused several people to shiver in unison, and there was a hint of gloom in their hearts.
They know that this situation is not simply an environmental problem, but there are other factors involved.
After he recovered, Chen Ziyan forced himself to calm down and looked down along the beam of the searchlight. When he saw clearly the specific situation in the abyss, he thought he had returned to the ghost cave again. .
Because under the light of the searchlight, what appeared were groups of twisted and squirming black snakes. The big black snakes were as thick as human arms, and the small ones were shaped like willow leaves. They all had a black eye on their head, which was shocking. I once met Jingjian Agama in the fluorescent tunnel.
Some of these Jingjian Ahan are lazily coiled, and some are fighting and biting each other. If someone with trypophobia sees it, it will definitely be regarded as a purgatory on earth.
Fortunately, everyone present had a very strong psychological quality, so their faces were just a little pale and there was no obvious reaction.
Shirley Yang looked at the group of squirming snakes below and said, "These snakes are behaving very strangely. They don't seem to react to the light, and they don't have any desire to attack us?"
Hu Bayi added: "More than that, have you noticed that there are so many snakes gathered down here, but we can't hear any sound."
After he was surprised, the first problem he discovered was this.
Logically speaking, with so many snakes entrenched here, they should have heard the sound when they walked in, let alone on the edge of the stone platform, or even before they walked in.
"The problem should be the material of the walls of the abyss." Chen Ziyan thought for a while and said.
He felt that the four walls of the abyss, or all the materials in this space, had the effect of isolating or absorbing sound.
"It's very possible." Shirley Yang nodded in agreement.
This kind of thing is not uncommon. Many ancient tombs have similar arrangements, but I just didn't think of it at the first time.
"Look at the four walls of the abyss." At this moment, the voice of black glasses diverted everyone's attention.
Chen Ziyan looked along the light and found that the dark abyss cave wall was covered with densely packed strange symbols. The specifications and shapes of these symbols were the same, but the technique and clarity were different. It is obvious that they are not the work of the same person, or even the product of the same period.
"These...I have never seen them." Shirley Yang searched her memory carefully, and then shook her head.
In the documents she collected, there was no such match, not even anything similar.
"Although the color of these symbols is very light, they seemed to be the color of blood." After taking a closer look, Hu Bayi revealed his findings.
The color of red paint and blood are two different concepts, and it may be difficult to distinguish them when they are faded like this, but Hu Bayi feels that his guess is correct.
"Blood?" When Chen Ziyan heard him say this, he already had the answer in his heart.
He shifted the beam of the searchlight and began to patrol back and forth in the abyss below.
Others were curious about this, but before they could ask, they saw the searchlight beam suddenly freeze on a certain place.
Looking along the beam of the searchlight, you can see under the light an arm reaching out from the snakes.
Although the arm has long since dried up, it can be seen from the shape of the bones that it is obviously a female arm.
At this moment, everyone thought of the mountains of dead bodies outside the Jade Mountain Altar.
"I think it's probably not an abyss down here." Looking at the stretched out arm, Chen Ziyan said what was in his heart.
Shirley Yang frowned: "Is it possible that there are abandoned corpses down here?"
"Isn't it possible? I think there must be countless corpses down here." Hu Ba He glanced at the mural on one side and said quietly.
Although the inheritance ceremony of the Ghost Mother on the mural was successful, he did not believe that this kind of thing would always go smoothly. If so, there would be no King of Hell.
It’s just that it will not be recorded in this kind of mural. Now the cruelty of this ritual will appear in front of them.
“We have to find a way to clean up part of the snake group.” Chen Ziyan said.
He felt that if he wanted to make further discoveries, the dense group of snakes below would be an obstacle.
The corner of Chen Ziyan's mouth twitched: "Master Chen, judging from the current situation, it may not be possible to clear out part of the snake group."
No one knows how many snakes there are down here, and in the current situation, it is estimated that the most likely thing is to clean up here, and the snakes next to it will be replenished.
And these snakes have no desire to attack now, but if I and others take the initiative to provoke each other, then it might be possible.
Hu Bayi doesn't think that the snakes here are all good gentlemen, and they don't complain no matter how they are ravaged.
He felt that the more likely consequence was that as soon as their intention to clean up the snakes was revealed, the snakes below began to attack crazily.
"I think it's better not to tamper with anything." Shirley Yang also stood on Hu Bayi's side.
Although she also knew that Chen Ziyan's words were correct. If she wanted to get more clues, the snakes below had become an obstacle. However, if she directly attacked the snakes, it would be the worst choice. It was best to observe patiently. Take a look and find a safer way.
"Okay." Chen Ziyan nodded.
He also knew that the two of them were right, and his idea was indeed a bit rash.
But he doesn’t think that he can find a more suitable way. You must know that the situation here is already obvious. These Jingjian Agans will not leave on their own, right?
If you expect something like this to happen, you might as well expect the answer to appear in front of you. That might be more likely.
However, Chen Ziyan did not say this, but planned to mention his idea again after a while. By then, others would have no reason to refuse.
