Passing through the gate, Luke and his party officially came to the cliff.This place is completely disconnected from the road ahead, and the depth below is so dark that it is impossible to see how deep it is. Even if a stone is thrown down, the echo cannot be heard for a long time, which shows that the depth below is very deep.And if you want to go up the mountain, you have to reach the other side.To get to the other side, you have to cross the bridge over the cliff.

But the black mist filled the bridge, and Luke didn't dare to act rashly.She really didn't know what this thing was, but her instinct told her that it couldn't be touched.Pez's induction also came to the same conclusion, this black mist is very dangerous.

Everyone had no choice but to find other ways to go up the mountain temporarily.After asking everyone to look for clues nearby, Luke came to Yako Kuromiya who was looking at the cliff.Following Yako Kuromiya's line of sight to the stone wall, Luke found that these ancient paintings were carved on the stone wall.

The painting has a long history, and various parts of it have undergone various wear and tear.But through observation, Luke can still see that this painting seems to be the legendary picture of a benevolent mother and a child.

About this benevolent mother, it is the same as the straight snake, one of the forerunners of the switch branch in the void.And there is one more thing in common, that is, the real names of the two of them have never been revealed, no one knows the real name of Mother Ren, and no one knows the real name of the straight snake.

In nothingness, the pioneers in a branch often have similar functions, and the same is true for the benevolent mother and the straight snake.

In the outside world, there are mainly two images of Ren Mu.One is a giant snake with two heads, the left head is plain white, which symbolizes Taixu, that is, opening.The right head is pure black, which symbolizes pure yang, which is Guan.There is another kind, which is the prototype of the very classic ren-mother-negative-child diagram.

In the widely circulated picture of the benevolent mother and the negative child, the benevolent mother has transformed into the image of a human woman, holding a child who is not yet one year old in her arms, and her face is full of love as a mother.When he was studying with Andrea before, Luke was lucky enough to see a picture of a benevolent mother with a negative child made by someone else from Andrea, and it was quite impressive.

Didn't expect to see it again in a place like this.

"Luke..." Yako Kuromiya, who had been silently watching the stone wall, suddenly turned her head and asked, "What do you think about the way up the mountain?"

"Honestly, I don't have a clue." Luke answered frankly, and then asked again: "What about you?"

"I..." Yazi Heigong paused, and said: "I have some immature conjectures about what this place is used for." Saying this, Miko Heigong walked closer to the stone wall and pointed at Renmu's shoulder. Some ancient words under the sub-picture said: "It says, rejoice my mother, forget my pain. Although this road is long, there are two sides."

Hearing this, Luke remained silent, and she was waiting for Yako Kuromiya to make a further explanation.

"The architectural form we have seen along the way is a very typical sacrificial site style in the nihilistic civilization. But despite this, there is a second interpretation of this architectural form, which can also be regarded as someone's residence But in order to prevent desecration of the pioneers, it is forbidden to engrave portraits of the pioneers in someone's residence. Therefore, this place is very likely to be used as a sacrificial place. But who are they offering sacrifices to? This is a problem."

"It wasn't until I saw these portraits that I was finally sure." Heigong Yazi looked at the picture of Renmu and her child, and said, "I'm afraid they worship the legendary Renmu. And Renmu is the one who redeemed and imposed. Pioneers, they are merciful to the world, allowing them to wash away their sins through prayers and sacrifices. But at the same time, there are some people with ulterior motives who try to distort this power. I have learned all about these from previous ancient books. "

"So I think that the bridge should have been designed as a road that no one can pass, to block people with ulterior motives. The real road is here." Zitu pretended to be praying, muttering words.

Seeing this, Luke couldn't help feeling completely confused.But at the next moment, there was a sudden violent shaking under his feet, and the whole Black Mountain shook suddenly.But fortunately, the shaking only lasted a few seconds.

Then, something incredible happened.

In front of the cliff on the right hand side of Heomiya Yako, dots of golden light emerged out of thin air, condensing into the appearance of a cable car carriage, and the cable composed of golden light slowly extended to the other side of the Montenegro, as if it had become the first place to go there. Two ways!

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"This..." Luke was shocked, never expecting the situation to become like this.

Although Yako Kuromiya was well aware of her intelligence, it was hard to imagine such a one-shot attack.It's probably not a matter of being smart anymore, and luck is good.

"Huh..." Yako Kuromiya stood up from the ground and patted her knees

The dust on the cover, then turned and looked at Luke indifferently, "How about Luke? It seems that everything is going well."

"Yes, it did go well." Luke couldn't help showing a happy smile, stepped forward and touched Heigong's head, and praised: "You are really there, Mizi. Tell me how you came up with it later. .”

"Well, if you're interested, I'd be very happy." Yako Kuromiya showed an expression of enjoyment, and she didn't seem to hate the act of touching her head.

Although this cable car made of golden light is not made of real objects, it inexplicably gives people a very reassuring feeling.The wide carriage is also enough to accommodate everyone on the scene, after everyone walks into the carriage of the cable car.The door of the cable car closed as if it was automatically sensed, with a creaking sound, and then slowly drove towards the opposite side.

It was a very surreal feeling, especially when Luke stood on the edge of the cable car and looked down.The invisible scene below him, the sense of reality above the clouds, the dizzying distance from the ground, and the thin atmosphere all made Luke feel very excited.

This is not because of anything else, but because this kind of experience is probably only once in a lifetime, so Luke is a little excited.

What is an adventure?It's called an adventure!

On the way, Luke also asked Yako Kuromiya how she found this way.The other party's reply is also more reasonable, roughly like this.

The entry point of Kuromiya Yako's thinking is first of all the legend about Renmu and the fact that this place is used as a sacrificial place, since this place is used as a sacrificial place for Renmu.Then, corresponding to those people with evil intentions in the legend, should there be guards in this place, or should there be agencies.

The reason why it is so certain that this place will guard against people with bad intentions is mainly because in the legend about Renmu, this point has been repeatedly said, and it is often mentioned as an important point.It can be seen from this that the civilization in nothingness should have suffered greatly from it, so it was repeatedly mentioned in the ancient books handed down.In this way, it would be strange if there were no precautions in this place.

The black mist that blocked the only way to go through made Kuroiya Yako even more convinced of her own thoughts.Based on this, she deduced that if this was the mechanism to stop those with evil intentions, then there should be a second way to go up.The words on the stone wall "Although this road is long, there are two sides." Although it is not clearly stated about this, Yako Kurogong thinks that it can be used as a metaphor.

But the question is, how does this second road achieve 100% defense against the enemy?

Yako Kuromiya thinks that the person who built this place is very smart, and the other party should not have set up a path that some enemies can pass through, then it would be too stupid.She took this as the second base point, and calculated that this second road should be impossible for the enemy to pass through.But what kind of road is it that makes it impossible for the enemy to pass through?

Regarding this point, Kuromiya Yako hadn't had a clear idea until she saw the portrait of Renmu.She suddenly recalled that this was used as the sacrificial ground for Yu Renmu. If the second road was indeed designed so that the enemy could not pass through it, then there is indeed one thing, that is, those who have evil intentions will not be able to pass through. dare not do.

That is to pray to the benevolent mother.

Mother Ren is one of the many pioneers of nothingness, who can easily penetrate people's hearts and destroy the world.In front of her, mortals and inferiors can't hide their thoughts at all.If it is those who have evil intentions but dare to pray, the benevolent mother has insight into the true purpose of trying to distort their power.Then being killed on the spot, I'm afraid it would be light.

That's why Yako Kuromiya tried to pray to Mother Ren, but she didn't expect to hit the arrow directly and wake up the sleeping mechanism.

In this regard, Luke couldn't help feeling that Yako Kuromiya was indeed extremely flexible in thinking and extremely intelligent.In just a few moments, she calculated all the approximate possibilities in her brain.It is true that there is an element of luck in this, but the fact that she can think of this possibility is already a manifestation of Yako Kuromiya's cleverness.

After waiting on the cable car for about ten minutes, these people finally arrived at the other side.

This place is a cliff platform as before, with a bottomless abyss below the edge, and a big hole on the side facing it, from the outside you can easily peep into the situation inside.

After getting off the cable car one after another, Luke was still at the forefront and walked into the cave first.

After walking into this big hole, Luke was surprised to find that there was something special in this hole.

Inside the cave is a huge indoor environment. The surrounding stone walls are artificially polished into a dome shape. With the center of the cave as the origin, various items are placed outside in sequence, including but not limited to braziers, tables used for sacrifices, Stone carvings, weapon racks, and cloth cushions for sitting cross-legged.

There are even many corpses in the cave, but these corpses are all sitting cross-legged on the cloth cushions, with a peaceful expression, and the whole person is praying, facing the center of the most central cave.The condition of the corpses was also similar, all of them were air-dried mummies, and the cause of death was temporarily unknown.

At the same time, in the center of the cave, Luke also saw that there was a statue of Mother Ren.Its image is also the most classic image of benevolent mother and child, but this is not over. On top of the statue of benevolent mother, there is another statue of benevolent mother, that is, the statue of the other party as a giant snake.

The huge snake body coiled around the entire cave, circle after circle, with the two snake heads facing each other.

First look at the sky.And in the direction that the snake head was facing, that is, at the top of the cave, a hole was dug out that opened outwards, from which Luke could clearly see the sunlight coming in from the outside.

What a stunning view!

Not to mention Luke, the other people who connected and walked in couldn't help being deeply shocked by the scenery inside the cave.Yako Kuromiya, who has a strong interest in history, immediately lit up her eyes when she saw this posture, and she couldn't wait to run over to study it, but Luke grabbed her and warned helplessly: "Don't be impulsive, We don’t know what’s in it yet, but we’ll show you when we have time.”

"Okay... okay." Yako Heomiya reluctantly agreed.

But at this moment, Luke suddenly saw an old man who looked like a corpse in front of him, staggering over with a cane, and the other party said: "%#&*%@! *what* !*¥"

???

Luke couldn't understand what the other party said, but he recognized that it was a language of nothingness, and barely understood half a word.

The next moment, Luke felt Yako Kuromiya stab his waist, and whispered in his ear: "Ke, the other party is asking if we are here to pay homage."

visit?

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Oh, presumably what he was talking about was paying homage to Renmu.

Luke understood instantly, but she didn't speak rashly as she didn't know where the other party came from.Then let Yako Kuromiya, the only one in the team who can speak the language of nothingness, do the work of communication, and asked the other party: "Who are you?"

(The following are simultaneous translations by Yako Kuromiya.)

"I'm a guide." The old man replied, his dry and thin body trembling non-stop. If it wasn't for the crutches, he might fall to the ground in the next second.But the other party was unexpectedly persistent and then replied: "I am responsible...to guide the people who come here...to the benevolent mother, whether they are mortals or apprentices. Being able to get here means that at least you are not enemies. And not those stupid krait hunters."

"Karath hunters? What are their backgrounds?" Heigong Mizi continued to ask.

"They are blasphemers, idiots who try to control two kinds of power at the same time. These guys basically master the power of these two branches at the same time, and they are also cursed by the pioneers because of their impurity and arrogance. These so-called krait hunters are the blasphemy switches They are cursed and cannot even die, their souls are trapped in rotting bodies until the world is destroyed. In order to find relief, they tried to come to the sacrificial ground of Mother Ren to find a way to release. Hehehe..."

The old man let out a hoarse and sinister laugh, "But the fate of these idiots has been doomed since they tried to desecrate the switch. About 1000 years ago, the last group of krait hunters in my impression came here .But they couldn't even pass through the gate, so they all died on the road. The stench from the rotting corpses has smoked the original holy mountain, and they are really harmful guys."

After listening to the simultaneous translation by Yako Kurogong, most of the people present felt enlightened. It turned out that these krait hunters came from such a background.Among them, Luke also felt a bit of fear, and he was glad that when he chose to follow the path of pioneers, he did not choose pioneers other than his own branch.

If he really chose someone else at that time, he might be cursed sooner or later.Seeing the fate of this large group of ring snake hunters, Luke didn't think he would be any better.After all, it was the first time that Luke knew that there was such a taboo in nothingness. Fortunately, he made the right decision at that time.

At the same time, Yako Kuroiya continued to ask the old man: "Thank you for your answer, what can we do here?"

"This is Mother Ren's sacrificial site. You can hold ceremonies here, as long as you don't desecrate Mother Ren's great body, then you can come here however you want. The second is prayer and sacrifice. If you desire Mother Ren's protection, then use your sincerity Go fight for it. And the last thing..." The old man turned around with difficulty, and said to some cleaning tools that had been dusty in the corner: "You can also help clean up here, so that this place will not completely lose its former glory. I am too old to walk, and I am no longer fit for this job. If you will help, I can give you some of the corpses of the krait hunters."

"Since you are so old, why don't you leave? And have you been the only one in this place?"

"Let's go?" The old man shook his head and said, "As early as many years ago, I decided to serve Mother Ren all my life. I am very happy to be Mother Ren's apostle in this world. Now I am about to die, and soon I will Elevate to the realm of nothingness and return to the embrace of the benevolent mother. Therefore, I will not leave, never will. And in this place, there were actually many people in the past."

After finishing speaking, the old man pointed to the air-dried corpses sitting on cloth mats not far away, "Some of them used to serve the benevolent mother here like me. But they are too old

Now, the body has reached its limit, so he ended his life in a gesture of prayer like a pious believer.After the death of the last priest and the last person here, I also had to come here and take over all the work here.Originally, I was supposed to be guarding the gate at the bottom of the mountain, but now there is no one here, and I have to take on all the tasks until everything is over. "

"Are you the aborigines of this world?" Yako Kuromiya asked.

"No, in fact, I have never set foot in the land under the clouds. I and others are just some people who spread the gospel of Mother Ren, who came here from a faraway land, left Mother Ren's trail, and then waited to die that day."

Well, in this case, the basic information has been asked.Heomiya Yazi turned to look at Luke and asked, "Ke, is there anything else you want to ask?" Luke thought for a while after hearing this, and then said, "I want to tell him about the seal of snakes directly. know something."

"Alright then." Yako Heomiya didn't say anything to stop her.Then he coughed, and asked the old man again in an empty language: "We are here to find the seal of the group of snakes in the test, do you know anything?"

"The Seal of the Snakes?" The old man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and sighed: "Hey, so that's the case. You came here for the Seal of the Snakes. Don't blame me for not telling you that you want to get the Seal of the Snakes. It's not that simple."

After finishing speaking, the old man pointed to an open room in the northwest with his crutches, "In there, there is a treasure box, which is the seal of the snakes you want. Just be careful, there is a Some incredible power. If you don't want to die, I suggest you go home now."

"Huh!" Pez snorted unhappily when he heard this, and felt rather disdainful of the old man's vague and bluffing words.The careful Luke didn't say anything, and after asking Kuromiya Yako to thank the other party, the group ignored the warning and came to the room in the northwest.

This is not reckless, that is necessary.They have been planning for so long, just to get the seal of the group of snakes.You can't give up suddenly just because someone says it's dangerous.Even if there is a real danger, it's fine, that's what Luke thinks.

This room is quite large, a rectangular platform stands in the center of the room, and on the platform is an unpretentious box quietly placed, presumably this is the treasure box that the old man said.

The reason why they didn't doubt this guy's words was that neither Pez nor Luke felt that the other party was lying.Luke is old enough to tell if most people are lying.And Pez's has some superpowers. If both of them don't see signs that the other is lying at the same time, then the other must be telling the truth.

On the roof of the room, there is a huge moon-blue gemstone inlaid, emitting a faint white fluorescence, illuminating the whole room, making people feel like they are under the moonlight.

Witnessing the scene in front of them, everyone obeyed Luke's order and did not act rashly.After asking Ding Yan to observe for a while, the other party reported that there was no trap in the room.I stepped in and tried it myself, and everything was fine.

After confirming safety, everyone entered the room.Luke slowly came to the platform, looked down at the treasure box on it, and the induction of the seal of snakes was awakened again.

Right in front of me, right inside this box.

But Luke hadn't moved yet, and there was a sudden change.

The light of the huge moon-blue gem above the head suddenly dimmed, and a black air shot out from it, shooting straight at Luke!

The speed of the black air was so fast that Luke had no time to react!

At this critical moment, Luke felt someone knocked him away and blocked the blow for him.

After adjusting his body shape and looking forward, Luke suddenly saw Pez kneeling on the ground, with obvious pain in his expression.And the black air just now was blocked by Pezdeluke!

Episode 21 About Bei Hanguang

Since Dong Zeyuan took the lead to join Luke's side, Luke had a lot of private exchanges in order to find out their details, so he also understood the reason why Dong Zeyuan and Xi Senli rebelled.The former is for his sister, and the latter is for his mother. Kostenburg used them as cannon fodder, but failed to fulfill his promise.

In anger, Dong Zeyuan decided to break the can and join Luke's side without looking back.

But there is one more person that Luke actually cares about very much, and that is Bei Hanguang who followed Dong Zeyuan and Xi Senli.

Luke was actually quite impressed by this tall and somewhat rude white-haired man.There are two very deep scars on Bei Hanguang's face, from his forehead to the corner of his mouth, the dry flesh exposed is very scary.A head of white hair seemed to be growing very fast, and within a few days Luke saw Bei Hanguang's original short hair turned into a long shawl again.

It's just that Bei Hanguang is tall, so a little long hair doesn't really bother him.but she

I often scratch my head habitually, and the more hair I have, the more it will become messy. Bei Hanguang had to trim his long hair regularly in order not to be so troublesome.

And the reason why she gave Luke a deep impression was not because of how strong or scary he was, but because Bei Hanguang's aura was very... fake.

This fake is literally.Bei Hanguang looked very arrogant and grumpy, but Luke, who was seasoned with human affairs, soon discovered that this guy didn't mean what he said.Luke has seen her sneaking around while no one is around more than once, teasing the stray cats alone, and giving some of his rations to each other.

The point is, this guy is still laughing while licking the cat, and the long scar is shaking with her smile, which makes people feel very strange.

Not only that, Luke's eyeliner in the family and Luke's report also showed that Bei Hanguang is not the troublesome person she showed, but is very easy to drive, basically doing whatever she is asked to do.

This made Luke curious about Beihanguang's past.She found a chance to be alone with Bei Hanguang, and after some clichés, Luke learned that Bei Hanguang actually had a very tragic past.

Bei Hanguang was born in Kostenburg, and was an abandoned baby.The place where she was found was the North District of Kirstenburg, so it was logical for her to join the North District of Lin Gui after she grew up.But because Bei Hanguang is an abandoned baby, she has no one to rely on in the North District. If there is no subsidy from the organization, she may not be able to live to the day when she grows up.

Other children of the same age also often take pleasure in bullying Bei Hanguang.

What kind of place is the northern part of Korstenburg?In fact, it is the most important port area and heavy industrial area of ​​Fort Korsten, densely packed factories are distributed along the coastline.Thousands of ships come in from outside every day, unload, load, and depart at the largest port in the North District.

The whistle of the ship became the alarm clock for the residents of the North District to wake up in the morning.Every day, everyone living in the North District can hear the continuous whistle sound, the melodious and long-lasting sound is like the whistling of a whale.Accompanied by the intensive sound of the machines operating in the factory, it is confusing.

Long-term bullying made Bei Hanguang cowardly and self-closing. She dared not resist others, nor did she dare to compete with others for anything.But even in this way, she still retains the last tenderness in her heart.Bei Hanguang naturally likes small animals, and she prefers to stay with cats and dogs rather than with people.
