Dream Guide

Anderson and Boris are dead.

No one expected this ending.

Alice held Anderson's body and cried uncontrollably until Mrs. Larry came back to comfort her:

"They left without pain, Alice, this is the best ending. Think of Professor Pardick! Cheer up, Alice, don't let the dead worry about your sad appearance in heaven."

Only then did Alice stop crying, gently put Anderson's body down, looked at the other men sincerely and said, "Please, dig a hole and bury him."

Everyone went to the village to find a few stone shovels, stone knives and stone levers, and dug a hole in the soft mud next to the altar.

Ivan and Petru carried the bodies of Boris and Anderson to the pit and buried them, covering them with earth.

At Mrs. Larry's suggestion, everyone dug a hole aside and buried the female savage named Tafiti. Aoki and Situ together dragged out the bodies of the three tribal leaders, Kubota, Battus and Bigwindi, and dug a hole to bury them. As for the other Itesans, they really didn't have the strength to dig so many holes, so they had no choice but to ignore them.

Dua had been reciting some scripture silently and walked around the square filled with dead people. She didn’t know how many times she recited it.

After doing this, people started to think about the next thing. With no Itsa to stop them from doing anything anymore, it was time to go to the altar. Of course, there are no indigenous people who can guide them now, so they can only explore everything by themselves.

At this moment, Su Huilan asked in shock: "Where are Boss Coal and Henran?"

Only then did people remember that when the Itsa people's spiritual formation exploded just now, the crow was blown away like a kite and never came back. Also missing at the same time was the cat.

Everyone looked at Aoki. The bird had been sitting on top of his head, like a part of his body. Logically speaking, he should have discovered it a long time ago.

Aoki touched his messy hair and glanced in the direction of the village not far away, and said a little embarrassedly: "Well, um, they are in the village."

"Ah, how did you know?" Su Huilan asked curiously.

"Oh, I saw them when I was looking for tools just now." Aoki said.

Everyone walked towards the village together. When passing a wooden house, people heard rustling sounds inside.

Qingmu opened the door with a creak and saw the coal boss and Heng Ran.

The floor was littered with dried fruits, dried fish and some dark things that looked like dried fruit pulp.

The cat lay stretched out on a piece of soft grass, its belly bulging with an unknown amount of food. When it saw the person at the door, it twisted its body hard and tried to get up. However, it ate too much, and its already fat body refused to obey its control. It twisted several times and failed to turn over, so it had to grin and groan. He gritted his teeth and looked at the crow with some embarrassment.

The crow was very nimble. When he heard the sound of the door opening, he flew up to the roof and tried to hide on the beams of the wooden house. But it forgot that the wooden house here was very simple, and there was no room for it to stand on the thin beams. Instead, it almost hit the roof in its hurry, causing it to scramble and fall down again.

It landed next to the cat, with its tail facing the door, its head slipped under the wings and looked back. Seeing Aoki looking at it, it croaked: "Oh, um, I was... blown here by the wind, You know, if it weren't for that damn wind, I wouldn't care about the things here..."

He meowed loudly to express his agreement, and arched his body vigorously, finally turned over, landed on all fours, and gasped.

Aoki walked over directly, grabbed the crow, threw it on his head, and said, "Let's go."

Su Huilan picked up Shen Ran who was full, shook her head helplessly and said, "If you eat any more, no one will be able to hold you."

The crow croaked twice, but felt that something was not right about the atmosphere, so he said no more. It wasn't until people returned to the altar that it discovered that two people were missing, so it couldn't help but secretly asked Qing Auricularia: "Hey, it seems that two big guys are missing?"

Aoki pointed towards the place where the dead man was buried: "It's over there."

The crow twisted its neck in surprise, but did not call again, only making a purring sound from its throat.

The stone steps of the altar are covered with vines and weeds. Most of the places without grass are very smooth, as shiny as those stone monuments in tourist areas that are touched by tourists all year round. Apparently people here often climb along fixed positions and rituals. altar.

The top of the altar is very flat, just like a pyramid that has been cut by a lazy waist, except that this pyramid is hollow, and there are stone steps diagonally downwards inside. Unlike the stone steps outside, there is not a single blade of grass to be found on the stone steps inside. This reminds me of those barren taboos on the South Pacific islands.

Going down the stone steps, you reach the interior of the altar, where many large and small black stones stand like a labyrinth arranged in a rockery. These stones are somewhat similar to those in Tabu, and there are no weeds on the stones or on the ground.

The lack of any grass may not be surprising enough, after all, we have seen such places on earth, but the crow said something that made people extremely frightened:

"Oh, there's not even a speck of bird poop here!"

This altar is old enough, and the Itesans never enter the interior of the altar, so naturally they will not clean it. The absence of bird droppings means that few birds fly in this sky. However, there are obviously many birds here. Just now, they saw a flock of birds flying past.

"Is there any special reason why the birds deliberately avoided it when flying over?" Mrs. Larry said.

"Radiation?" This was the first thing Su Huilan thought of. They had analyzed this when they were on Tubuai Island, and even asked for a radioactivity detector.

Situ shook his head and said, "It may not be radiation."

"What's that?" Alice asked.

"Perhaps when the bird flies across the sky, this altar space does not exist." Situ said.

"What?" People didn't understand what he meant.

Situ raised his head and said, "Look at the sky."

People then raised their heads and saw the sun hanging high and diagonally above. The sunlight was not dazzling. When you squinted your eyes, you could see colorful circles.

"What's the matter?"

"How many suns have you seen?"

People were shocked and remembered that there were originally three suns in the sky, but now they only saw one.

"I'll go up and have a look!"

Petru moved nimbly and climbed up the stone steps to the top of the altar. He stood on the top and looked up at the sky for a while, then stretched out his hand and shouted: "Three! It's three!"

People climbed up. As I climbed, I looked up and saw that there was always a sun in the sky. But the moment they climbed to the top, their vision suddenly turned into three suns.

However, the strange thing is that when people come down, the sun in the sky does not disappear immediately. Instead, it waits until they finish the last step and reach the bottom of the altar. The sky suddenly darkens and the sun changes from three to three. Became one.

"Are there two worlds inside and outside the altar?"

Everyone was panicking, knowing that one of these two worlds must be true and the other false. The question is which one is true?
