When we found the cemetery of the old people after a lot of hard work, and went deep into the ground, our hearts were still very calm.
It was too peaceful. I didn't encounter a mechanism, a ghost, or a zombie along the way.
I didn't even encounter a stumbling block.
Quietly boring.
Hei Lao Wu is still stubbornly walking forward with the map in his hand, one step two steps, one step two steps.
We yelled from behind: "Fake it! Was it deceived by that framed magic stick?"
Hei Lao Wu murmured: "No, it won't..."
"But this way, there is nothing. Don't say that this tomb is like a hidden treasure. To be honest, I don't think even a ghost can be found." Old Tai said helplessly.
Hei Lao Wu turned around at once and said excitedly: "What do you know! Didn't you see how extraordinary this tomb is? The tomb path is bright and spacious, there are no organs, and no sinks. It doesn't seem like it at all. A tomb passage, but like a passage!"
"Uh, it makes sense." Old Tai looked at him: "So what you mean is that there are a bunch of zombies living in it, and they often feel bored, so they like to go out and run when there is nothing to do. This is the one that walks. Lu chant."
Hei Lao Wu: "... I didn't say that."
"Then what do you mean?" Old Tai looked upset and frankly said that he was already very bored.
Hei Lao Wu turned around, staring around, with a serious expression, and muttered: "To be honest, maybe you don't feel that way. But I have an intuition that there are humans here."
Hei Lao Wu said very solemnly.
Old Tai looked at him, and after a while, said weakly: "Are you talking about a few of us?"
Hei Lao Wu: "..."
Hei Lao Wu sighed a long sigh, he could see that this Lao Tai is an idiot who specializes in tearing down his platform. He took a deep breath and explained: "What I said is that there is a breath of living people here. Apart from a few of us, there are often living people coming and going here."
"Tsk tusk tusk." Old Tai waved his hand. "That is to say, it is possible that someone has been here before us, and the longevity pearl may also be taken away? Fuck! That frame is not a lot of news. Sell it? It's over, Hei Lao Wu, this time you have lost everything."
Hei Lao Wu: "..."
Hei Lao Wu didn't pay attention to Lao Tai, his eyes just flashed dignified one after another.
I looked at Hei Lao Wu, not knowing why, suddenly I felt a strange feeling in my heart.
Hei Lao Wu gave me a completely different feeling from usual. Ordinarily, although he loves money, he is confident to get money, and he is interested in robbery.
But today he is different, he looks worried today, it seems that he can't find the longevity pearl, and he will encounter some great troubles.
"What the hell is going on?" I was puzzled.
After a while, I spoke to Hei Lao Wu, "Show me the map in your hand, maybe I can find some ideas."
"Yeah." Hei Laowu didn't hesitate, and quickly handed me the map.
After I took the map, I found that it wasn't a complicated hidden map, and most people could understand it, not to mention Hei Lao Wu.
But the strange thing is that there is a rune on the map that I can't understand.
I was curious, pointed at it and asked: "What is this?"
Hei Lao Wu looked at where I was pointing, and said, "This is a one-line comment. The translated meaning is that the dead will live forever, and the living will die forever."
I:"… "
I don't know why, listening to these words, I suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling in my heart.
"What is meant by the eternal life of the dead, and the eternal death of the living? It sounds like a blessing and a curse. A blessing to the dead, a curse to the living..." I muttered.
"Do you know how to read this sentence?" I looked at Hei Lao Wu and asked.
Hei Lao Wu Yi was taken aback, but he nodded, "No problem."
"Then you read it out loud!" I suggested.
A trace of doubt flashed in Hei Lao Wu's eyes, but under my gaze, he nodded and said, "Okay."
then…
I still can't forget the scene of dozens of people in grass skirts suddenly coming out from behind the wall after Hei Lao Wu shouted out the rune.
And the few of us, like monkeys in the zoo, were surrounded in the center, looking at this scene with dumbfounded expressions, and we were extremely surprised.
Hei Lao Wu moved his nose and said lightly: "Let me just say it, I can smell the breath of a living person here."
Old Tai and Guang Ge: "So who are they?"
Seeing this scene, I finally understood the meaning of the rune just now: "The dead will live forever, and the living will die forever."
It seems that there are longevity people in history, and obviously, they have not encountered any plague, they are alive well, they are hiding!
The final result was that the four of us were tied away by this group of immortals.
Of course, the process was peaceful, because we did not make any resistance, but rather calmly chose to be taken away by them. This is not because we are afraid of them, but because we are curious!
I am curious why a group of longevity people choose to hide, hiding under the sky without seeing the sun!
Curious why there is such a map circulated!
Curious where they are taking us!
After being tied up with a stick by these long-lived people, I saw that they opened a secret road that we hadn't seen before, and then framed us and walked in.
After entering, I quietly looked at both sides of the secret road, and found that there were piles of bones on both sides of the secret road.
I:"… "
"Are these all members of the longevity tribe? They die quickly too!" Old Tai whispered, "Why not longevity at all?"
I looked at the messy bones that were thrown away, and said lightly: "I don't think these bones belong to their own tribe."
"Oh?" Old Tai was taken aback, "Why do you say that."
"First of all, the age is wrong. The age of these bones seems to be the age of a normal person. Second, you look at the other side." As I said, I pointed to the other side with my eyes.
Under my sign, Old Tai slowly raised his head and found that there was another pile of bones not far away.
However, the number of bones in that pile is obviously much less. More importantly, the pile of bones is neatly arranged. Obviously, they have been specially arranged. They were offered there like offerings, and they were thrown in a pile at random. His bones are obviously not a hospitality level.
In addition, the most peculiar thing is the color of the bones, which is the same color as snowflakes, bright and dazzling!
"This..." Old Tai was surprised for a while.
"This is the Clan member of the Longevity Clan, right?" I said lightly, then my eyelids sank and my voice was lowered, "It is very likely that we will become another group."
Old Tai: "...Should I transform myself?"
"Don't worry, it's okay to change later." I looked around and found that we had come to a secret room under the detention of a group of longevity people.
Rather than running away, I want to figure out what these longevity people really want to do.
I saw the longevity people put us on the ground, but we still did not move very cooperatively.
I slanted my eyes and saw Hei Lao Wu on the side, and found that he was staring in one direction with a serious face.
I was puzzled, what happened to him
Following his gaze, I saw an arm standing on the ground.
To be precise, it was a boneless arm that stuck in the ground in a daze, like a street lamp.
At the top of the arm, a palm, above the palm, a green bead.
"Eternal Life Pearl?" My pupils shrank suddenly.
Just when I was surprised, I saw the other two longevity men walking out carrying a very old longevity man. At this moment, two of the longevity people who escorted us here also came out.
I saw that they walked up to the old man respectfully, and then knelt down directly.
The old man sat on two arms that looked like waiters, stretched out his hands and tremblingly signaled the two longevity people to get up.
Afterwards, they began to communicate, saying everything I could not understand.
While I was talking, I looked at a few of us from time to time, and it made me horrified.
Finally, I couldn't restrain my curiosity, lowered my voice and asked Hei Lao Wu, "What are they talking about?"
Hei Lao Wu explained: "The oldest is their patriarch."
"And then?" I asked.
"Then I don't understand the specifics, but I understand a few words. The longevity pearl... malfunctions... needs to replenish spiritual power... with a living person's life... roughly that's what it means." Hei Lao Wu said.
"Fuck! Isn't this connected? The longevity orb is out of order, and they will use our lives to replenish the spiritual power for the longevity orb!" I was surprised.
"Exactly right." Hei Laowu also nodded.
"So, these guys have never encountered any plagues. They took the initiative to hide in the ground, then from time to time they lure some living people down, use the life of the living people to supplement the spiritual power of the longevity beads, and then use the longevity beads. To ensure their longevity?" I was speechless for a while, and said again: "It's really boring!"
"Yeah!" Old Tai couldn't help but said, "Is this longevity man not enough IQ! In order to live a few more years, he hides himself underground? Fuck, they are alive if they don't go out for five or six hundred years. What's the point?!"
Hei Lao Wu spoke again: "They are still saying that this is their talent... Uh, they must live a long time, or else it's a waste of this talent... The longer you live, the more meaningful..."
Old Tai looked speechless: "Shit logic! Some people are alive, but he is dead!"
I looked at Hei Lao Wu and asked, "What then? Why didn't you say it?"
"Um, they are coming to kill us, strip off our bodies, curse our souls, and only leave us with a few bones." Hei Lao Wu said lightly, "They also said that they are purifying us short-lived ghosts. groove!"
As soon as the voice fell, a sharp light flashed in the old man's eyes, and a loud scream suddenly appeared in his mouth. In the next second, he waved his hand, and the longevity people who were standing next to us suddenly pulled out a few shining blades from the waist, and rushed at us fiercely.
"Fuck! None of them are good people!" Brother Guang shouted.
"Oh!" (End of this chapter)
