Chapter 1486: Grave of the Butterfly Family
In the cave below [Black Night Spirit Temple], there are hidden walls and the passage leading to the closed butterfly tomb. They are all in the innermost hidden space of the cave, so Xia De doesn't have to worry that he has not entered the cemetery. Discovered by ring warlocks arranged by the church here.
And when he walked out from behind the hidden wall with four gems, he found that someone was already waiting for him in the dark corridor.
"Shad!"
The ball of light hovering around the seventeen-year-old girl illuminated her beautiful face. Iluna seemed to be waiting here for a while, and she was satisfied to see the surprised expression on Shad's face:
"Did I come fast enough? After receiving the news, I knew you must have new arrangements. After the big earthquake, I applied to perform tasks outside the city, and then found a reason to come here by myself. Anyway, under the circumstances tonight , it is reasonable for anyone to suddenly disappear for a while.”
"It's really fast enough, but there are a lot of weird things outside the city tonight, I think we still need to confirm each other's identities."
Shad proposed. "Very reasonable."
Iluna said in a good mood:
"How about asking a question that only we know?"
"Hmm... At the end of the year, what special material was mixed in the pair of gloves you gave me that you knitted yourself?" "I gave you a scarf instead of a glove. My hair."
Iluna was a little embarrassed, and then asked Xia De: "Where is the most beautiful part of our friend who is a fortune-teller?" "Of course it is those purple eyes."
Xia De said without thinking, and then saw Iluna giggling. He was originally nervous and a little bored, but he was relieved a little under this little joke, so he waved to Iluna:
"Then, let's go."
Green gemstones represent spring, red gemstones represent summer, gold gemstones represent autumn, and white gemstones represent winter.
The gems of the four seasons were inlaid by Xia De on the stone wall at the end of the passage that blocked the two people's progress. When the last gem also enters its place, the four colored gems emit soft light together. In those lights, the stone wall fluctuated like an illusion, and then melted little by little.
Shown in front of Shad and Iluna are the long and narrow tomb passage steps leading to deeper underground. It is the first time the cemetery has been reopened since it was sealed after Mr Lehmann's death.
If they were ordinary people, they would also need to consider the oxygen problem underground, but Xia De and Iluna didn't need to worry so much. "Let's go."
Shad said to Iluna.
Although this is a veritable Fifth Epoch relic, Mr. Lehmann's cemetery is not an exaggerated underground complex. After formally entering the passageway of the tomb through the gate, we walked forward for more than 30 steps, and came to the double-opened stone gate at the end.
The two stone gates are filled with characters from the Fifth Epoch, and the surroundings are decorated with patterns of butterflies and flowers. Mr. Lehman's epitaph is engraved here, and Xia De has seen these contents in "The Butterfly Family: My Life", but Iluna found something strange:
"This is not only the cemetery of Mr. Lehmann, but also the three Butterfly girls?" "That's right."
Xia De nodded, knowing what Iluna wanted to ask:
"Those butterfly girls are the dependents of the old **** [Thousand Eyed Butterfly]. It stands to reason that their lifespan should far exceed the lifespan of an ordinary man in the fifth era, Mr. Lehman. According to the description of the epitaph, and what I read from the memoir According to what I saw in the movie, this cemetery was closed after Mr. Lehmann’s death, and they were buried here at the same time.”
"Could it be that because of love, they voluntarily entered the cemetery to accompany Mr. Leman's corpse?" Iluna asked in disbelief, and Xia De shook his head:
"I don't know either, but there will probably be an answer in the future."
The gate with the epitaph engraved on it should be regarded as the real gate of the cemetery. But this door didn't have a unique lock, and Xia De pushed it open with a little force.
There are still steps going down behind the door, and the walls on both sides are no longer monotonous stone bricks, but here are some more abstract paintings.
Pattern of various butterflies. Xia De and Iluna did not go down immediately, Xia De frowned and looked deeper into the darkness:
"There are illusions. If we just enter like this, we will probably fall directly into a passage that will never end." "It is normal for the cemetery to have defensive measures."
Iluna commented, and took out a piece of silver metal from her pocket: "The church has a special way to break the illusion, I will try it first."
She activated the spell with her own spirit, and then threw it forward. The metal pieces clanged and landed on the downward steps, and then emitted a bright light.
This light directly irradiated the murals on both sides of the wall, and the abstract butterfly pattern, whose color was severely peeled off, actually moved under the light of the spell.
But instead of letting out a sigh of relief, Iluna became serious: "It seems that the standard equipment is still not enough."
While speaking, those grotesque butterflies "flyed" out of the mural. They did not attack the two people standing in front of the tomb door, but flapped their wings to completely block the dark passage.
Iluna still wanted to try, but Shad stopped her: "I'll try."
He took out the silver flute stuck in his waist. This is the divine creation [Calling Butterfly Flute], which he got from St. Perry's cemetery, a gift from the Fifth Era.
Xia De actually doesn't know how to play the flute, but at least it's okay to play the flute. The effect of playing this flute is to summon butterflies according to the consumption of spirits, and in the end even Helen and Grace can be summoned.
But when facing the butterfly illusion guarding the cemetery, when the flute sounded, the abstract butterflies returned to the wall. At the same time, strange twists appeared in the air in the deep tunnel leading deeper underground. Xia De and Iluna heard the sound of a paper bag being punctured at the same time, and then the illusion was released.
"Since Sister St. Perry said that Mr. Lyman left a gift for me in his cemetery, I don't think Mr. Lyman will deliberately embarrass me."
Shad said.
Continuing to go down, after walking through 33 steps, the narrow corridor suddenly opened up. But this is not a tomb but a church. On the left and right of the church, the holy emblems of the old **** [Thousand-eyed Butterfly] and the righteous **** [Old Man with the Lamp] are respectively placed.
Even now in the Sixth Era, there are similar structures in the catacombs of the natives of Randall Valley, so Shad and Iluna just glanced at it for a while, and then continued to walk deeper underground.
Another earthquake occurred during this period, and the shaking of the earthquake can be felt more underground than on the ground. Fortunately, this underground cemetery is extremely strong. Even though the earthquake was strong, there was no dust falling on the ceiling above the corridor of the cemetery.
After passing the church in the cemetery, the main tomb of the cemetery is connected behind.
The main tomb is also partitioned by double-opening stone doors, and on the stone doors here are portraits of Mr. Lehman himself and three girls with butterfly wings behind them.
After the door was opened, there was a square tomb, and a huge sarcophagus was placed in the center of the tomb. Judging from the volume of the sarcophagus, it is definitely not a single person buried inside.
It is very surprising that the tomb is not completely dark. There are brightly colored murals on the walls of the tomb, and the murals depict various butterflies flying in the large underground cavity from a bird's-eye view. Every butterfly on the mural is emitting a faint light. Although the light of a single one is very weak, the combined light is enough to provide illumination.
Butterflies are the most in the center of the mural above the tomb, and the soft light shines on the sarcophagus from above. It is indeed a good choice to sleep here.
"It's so simple, we came here?"
Iluna seemed worried that there was a trap, so she didn't dare to go in directly, but Xia De went in directly:
"What do you think there will be here? Ancient evil spirits or gargoyle guards? This is just a cemetery. He is ready to welcome the arrival of my old friend."
Xia De came to the huge sarcophagus, and a stone tablet was erected in front of the sarcophagus, on which the names of Mr. Lyman and the three butterfly girls were written.
As for the sarcophagus,
The style looks relatively simple, with butterfly patterns engraved on all five sides.
Xia De didn't bother Mr. Leman's sleep. He bent down to read the stone tablet in front of the sarcophagus, and then told Iluna, who was not very good in ancient language, the content on it:
"The question is solved. The relatives of the three gods died together with Mr. Leman." "What do you mean?"
Iluna asked a little puzzled, while Xia De wiped the dust on the surface of the stone tablet with his sleeve:
"Voluntarily following Mr. Leman out of [Worm Cave] is equivalent to giving up one's long life. This is a special kind of contract, which you can understand as a contract of love. From now on, the family members of the three old gods will Your own soul is bound to Mr. Lehman's soul. When one party passes away or one party changes his mind, this primitive, ancient and not very binding contract~www.readwn.com~ will make the signing of the contract Both died together."
Xia De paused and added:
"The Butterfly girls have the strength to break free from the contract, but they didn't. It seems that the man who made this stele was the son of Mr. Lyman and one of the women. He wrote everything down."
"Martyrdom?"
Iluna was slightly shocked, but also respectful.
"It shouldn't be considered martyrdom, it can only be regarded as... He died, and they also felt that they should leave. After all, they entered the normal material world at the beginning, just to accompany him. Mr. Lehman died, and they have no That's the reason to stay." "Is this love?"
The seventeen-year-old girl was muttering to herself, while Shad, who was squatting in front of the stone tablet, thought about Stone Oxenfurt and Haila Oxenfurt.
