After the nine-tailed white fox disappeared at the city gate, I sighed, then pushed open the city gate and led the team inside.

Here is the same as in the photo, many old and barren ancient buildings, the streets on the ground are all made of stone slabs, and now there are many cracks, some small trees have grown in some cracks, and some are directly replaced by tree trunks. The architectural styles of the Central Plains are not very similar, but more like the structure of some ethnic minorities.

It is the kind of structure that is flat on the top and round on the bottom. Although the house also uses wooden pillars as the beams, the structure is quite different. It looks like a yurt, but it is not a tent but a house built of wood and soil. The two of them have a two-story structure. There are strange totems engraved on the wooden doors and windows, and they continue to walk until they reach a place similar to the market square, where there is a towering bronze statue of a god.

At first glance, I thought this god was a ram, but when I looked closer, I found that it was a god with a sheep's head and a human body, holding a witch's staff, with a solemn expression, dressed in sackcloth, with snakes and scorpions on its left and right shoulders, and its pupils There is a god, like a living thing, with a ferocious complexion, showing the appearance of anger.

"The totem outside the house door just now is the candle dragon totem advocated by the blood pupil clan. This statue is the high priest of the witch clan in the legend of their blood pupil clan. According to legend, he was chosen as a sacrifice when he was born. However, by virtue of its own supernatural powers, it revived its soul from the dead body, gradually grew up with the body of a sheep, and then turned into a human form, so its reputation increased greatly, and everyone admired his magic power Boundless, enshrine him as the high priest in charge of the rituals of the Wu clan." Yunwen said.

"It's quite interesting, but this is also a good trick used by the feudal superstitious ancients. They made up some ghosts and gods by themselves, so that everyone can worship and worship them, so as to answer the role of winning the hearts of the people. To be honest, it feels like a strategy of fooling the people. , I just want to control the spiritual guidance." I said.

"The Heavenly Remnant Scroll mentions the origins of the treasures. When it comes to these, it also mentions this high priest who is half-goat and half-human. His real name is unknown, but when it is mentioned by later generations, he is called Ling Wu. The creator of the Tong Clan's Yin Erosion Pot and the living corpse refining to prolong life. Before that, the living sacrifice was just a ritual for their Xuetong Clan to worship the heavens. So if you say that this person is just Du Zuan, I don't know if I'm right or not." Yunwen said.

"Maybe there is such a person, but he is only demonized or deified. Maybe, after all, a sheep grows up to look like a human. This is not scientifically possible. The dna arrangement of a human is much different from that of a human being." I said .

Yunwen smiled, and then the two of us stopped discussing.

Not far from the square, there is a river in the city, and a solitary bridge is erected on the river. The open space, presumably, is also the market used for transactions in the past, but now it has a large vacant area, which seems a bit empty, and if you look carefully, you can vaguely see some objects here, which are out of place here.

I went over to check, for example, I saw that something dropped somewhere on the ground was a deck of playing cards, and the skin had become severely damaged and faded after being exposed to wind and rain. Playing cards originated in Europe in the [-]th and [-]th centuries, and it is impossible for this kind of paper to appear in ancient times. Judging from this, it is later, and the only possibility is that those dead soldiers left behind.

I looked around for a week, and only then did I realize where this is. I remember the 49 photos of the dead left on the ground in the pocket of the "City of the Dead" project in the office of the underground factory. Almost all of them were taken in this area. In my mind Thinking back to the various photos in it, I can now correspond to them, the focus of the perspective brought by the angle, the layout of the surrounding scenery and roads, and the things that can be included in the field of vision...

At this time, the sky is dark and dense, and only a small amount of sunlight is covered, which is what is called blocking the sky.

"Why did you kill people here? Why did you all die here?" I couldn't help asking myself in a low voice.

Until then, when I saw Yunwen squatting down to check the place, I immediately understood that there were four cracks in the center of the stone road. Speaking of a large object placed on it before, and it has four legs, but in terms of length and width, it looks like it!

"It seems that you placed the bronze tripod." Yunwen said.

My head buzzed and exploded!

If it is true as Yunwen said, this vacant area is not used to buy vegetables in the market, but is dedicated to offering sacrifices to living people and refining corpses to prolong life. Otherwise, why would the bronze tripod used for sacrifices be here?Therefore, this is the sacrificial area, and the fifty soldiers of the Black Skull Organization died because of it!

"Run!" I yelled.

Yunwen took a moment, but when she saw me like this, she immediately turned her horse's head and prepared to go back to the other side of the bridge with me, but at this moment something strange happened, the simple isolated bridge was passively suspended and erected, this mechanical method is similar to that of a post station. How is it exactly the same?And there was a sound not far away, it was the sound of someone turning the gear shaft to rotate.

After listening to it for two or three months, I have already understood this voice.

Yunwen's face was pale, and she was about to pull Sanfu to hide behind me, but Sanfu was frightened and began to run and struggle restlessly. Suddenly broke free, threw off Yunwen and supplies, and galloped away with all his strength, unable to scream no matter how much he shouted.

"Sanfu!" Yunwen wanted to chase after her, but I held her back.

"Don't go, the horse runs faster than us, and even if we catch up, we can't control the frightened horse. Besides, we can't protect ourselves now, so it might be a disaster if we let it stay here. It's dead," I said.

After listening to my analysis, Yunwen calmed down a lot, but she still pulled me tight tightly, clung to me, trembling, and said: "It's getting dark, our mission should have failed, I'm sorry, I did it." Bad idea, since we didn't find the red-eyed monster and went into the city, it seems we are doomed."

I hugged her, let her lean on my chest, and said: "I can't live, I can't die, don't be afraid, I'm here, I, Zhou Bo, will accompany you."

Yunwen looked at me, her trembling body eased a little, and she nodded seriously.

At this time, there was a bang sound nearby, and my nerves tensed immediately. It was the sound of something moving across the roof. I quietly unscrambled the eight hand gestures, "Lin, Bing, Dou, Zhe, Jie, Array, Column, in , front", and then asked Yunwen to take a good look at the wooden cow and horse, while I held the golden sword and touched the left pocket with my left hand, that is, a large string of wood pieces of the celestial master's spell, and made a sword finger with my left hand, and pinched one piece.

"Be careful." Yunwen said with concern when she let go of me.

"I will." I responded.

Immediately went forward, at this time, there was a bang, before it arrived, those red blood pupils appeared suddenly in the gray-black environment under the dark clouds, I was full of nervousness, I didn't know Whether I can deal with it or not, I don’t know what the other party is. It’s just that I fought once two days ago, and I was crushed with all my strength. If it wasn’t for the howling of the nine-tailed white fox to lure it away, I’m afraid I’d already be bleeding from all seven orifices and being scared by hallucinations die.

At this time, boom, boom, boom, boom...

The sound of footsteps kept coming, and the huge figure slowly came out from behind the building complex. When I saw it appear, I immediately opened my mouth wide in surprise.

I saw the apes in front of me, wearing animal skins, but their appearance was almost the same as the Bigfoot seen before, with big feet, black bristles all over their bodies, a human-like ape-like face, and sly eyes. The difference is that this Bigfoot is only smaller than the first one, I can look at it at the same level, and it is not as strong as it.

Moreover, there are long eyelashes on the sharp eyes, and the animal skin protrudes slightly under the neck bone, which is obviously some kind of female characteristic!

"Damn it, you're the female Bigfoot that Bigfoot uses living people as courtships every day? You come to kill me, you don't want to avenge your husband!" I yelled in shock.

However, the strange thing is that her walking posture is quite strange, a little stiff, which is much different from the surprised posture of the male bigfoot monster I saw on the top of the mountain before...
