Du Yuqi was stunned and said:
"They don't seem like people who can talk nonsense?"
The priest took a deep look at Du Yuqi and said:
"Are you sure you know them? Do you know their true identities? The first premise for us to select people is that they have simple backgrounds and have shown a considerable degree of loyalty to the church. Among your friends, Su Zhanxi is the one from the mainland of the Void Country." The core figures trained by the premier Fengquan Dojo, Duize and Mingxi are important members of the son of Smila. As for Chang Mu's identity, we can only confirm that she is a demon who is close to two hundred years old ( The magic race, which is different from the devil race in the conventional sense), has a lot to do with it, so we must be cautious."
After hearing what the priest said, what else could Du Yuqi say? He could only nod silently and said:
"Okay, I know."
The priest patted his shoulder and said gently:
"Work hard, the role you play in the team this time is very important, it determines how far our team's endurance can go! At the same time, don't worry, we will send out individual strength this time A very powerful fighter will definitely not be inferior to your friends. Take Lin as an example, his strength is unfathomable, his actual combat power is far beyond the fourth level, and he is from the east, so he has some very powerful fighters. A strange secret technique to cover up his aura, so he can also walk with you."
Time was running out, and as soon as the list of personnel was finalized, they asked to assemble immediately. In the temporary team that had been formed, Du Yuqi found that apart from Lin and FIRE, Wu Nian, her acquaintances, had also been selected into it. Gathered together, everyone has a standard backpack in front of them, in which there is drinking water, a large piece of dried meat that can be eaten for three days, when eating, you need to cut open the soft croissant with a knife, and two bottles of healing potion.
At the same time, the nuns brought them steaming potato mushroom soup and ham sandwiches. As they ate, they saw a burly man walking to the front accompanied by Wu Nian, took out a roll of maps, and Said with a voice like a bell:
"Everyone, I am Paladin Kerik. This time I will be the temporary captain to take risks with everyone. Before that, I have served in the temple for thirteen years. I go to the bottom of the temple three times a year, regularly To clear up the undead creatures that appear below, so you can also be my guide, and you can come to me for any questions related to the road ahead."
Then, Kerik hung up the map in his hand, and it can be seen that the map in his hand is very detailed, and he has painted the entire above-ground and underground parts of the entire church. Not the clumsy scribbled map in the little book "Bottom of the Sanctuary."
After the map was hung up, one could immediately find that the shape of the bottom of the church resembled the character "Lord". At that time, there were not many believers who asked to be buried, so after digging a downward passage, a horizontal tomb passage was randomly dug to the side.
As more and more people asked for burial, the tomb was expanded to the side, and finally it was dug to the edge of the control area of the Minsk Church. If it was dug again, it would enter the underground of the residential area, so it had to be stopped In desperation, they began to excavate from the opposite side of this tomb passage. In this way, the horizontal line above the character "zhu" was formed.
Because of the need to consider the problem of foundation collapse, after the two symmetrical tomb passages were finally excavated on the first floor, the high-level officials of the church sought the opinions of civil experts and continued to dig more than ten meters downward. Then excavate the second layer of the tomb, and finally gradually formed the shape of the character "zhu".
According to the deduction and analysis of the church, the location of the door of the seal is in the depths of the third layer of the tomb. The projection of the silver cross coincided with the location of the sealed door, and it could be seen that this matter should have been intentional by the other party.
However, this map only shows the location of the main tomb passage. In the long hundreds of years, people who want to be buried in this holy place can be said to be everywhere. However, this wish is doomed to only a small number of people. be satisfied.
In the beginning, some priests or ascetic monks had a heart of compassion, or owed others, so they secretly opened a sub-tomb next to the main tomb to help believers fulfill their wishes. At that time, this matter was still carried out in secret.
But everything has ups and downs, ups and downs. Hundreds of years ago, the Minsk Church itself suffered a fire, which severely damaged its vitality and fell into a predicament of malfunctioning. The archbishop at that time acquiesced in his subordinates Some new graves were secretly dug out and sold as an emergency.
In this case, although the main tomb passages on the map exist, the quality of these tomb passages excavated privately later is also uneven, and some even collapsed, making the underground as complicated as a maze. How Mingnei should find out exactly where the sealed door is located.
Time waits for no one, and soon a group of people set off. The entrance of the catacombs is not hidden, and the decoration is quite generous and clear. It is on the inside of the altar of the chapel. In this case, once the church holds prayers , Blessing and other ceremonies are also equivalent to praying for the dead buried in the ground.
From the entrance of the tomb to the interior of two or three hundred meters, there is a long underground tomb passage. On both sides of the tomb passage, tombs are dug out, and the remains of the dead are buried inside. The entrance of the tomb is engraved with a marble tablet. Name of the deceased, date of birth and death, life history.
Of course, Du Yuqi was more impressed by the low-key decorations, sculptures, and accessories, such as marble statues of angels flying everywhere, and the niches, columns, and decorations at the entrance of the tomb. With fine carvings, the texture of the characters' clothes and the wrinkles on the facial expressions are clearly visible.
Although there are not many decorations in each tomb, they are unique both in placement and processing. The cave looks spacious and grand, with silver candlesticks, white roses, and burning candles that illuminate the details inside. The enshrined flowers and the like are clean and bright. Walking inside, one can feel the faint sadness and ingenious luxury, which makes people feel the beauty of death and withering from the bottom of their hearts.
In addition, there are countless saints and celebrities buried here. You can see that there are a large number of thunderous names on the densely packed epitaphs on both sides. Seeing this scene, Du Yuqi suddenly realized something in her heart. No wonder so many people wanted to be buried here, crying and shouting. After death, the environment is so good, not only that, but also can be neighbors with a large number of celebrities. How can such a unique advantage Can make people feel uneasy.
A group of people continued to walk forward, and they came to the end of the passage. There were two majestic and tall stone gates. The stone gate on the left was engraved with a huge three-headed dog head. It was ferocious and ferocious. It seemed to be still drooling, indicating death. On the stone gate on the right there is a logo of ouroboros, which symbolizes that after death, the soul will be reincarnated again and again, just like ouroboros.
Obviously, these two stone gates are usually not opened, and you have to search carefully to find a side door. It should be locked tightly at ordinary times, and it is almost impossible for tourists to enter. The paladin Kerik who led the team took out a bunch of keys to open it.
After entering the side door, there is a long staircase at the bottom, which extends all the way out. Fortunately, there is still light here, but it is a mineral lamp that has been eliminated for a long time. This thing is very simple to say, it is Manufactured using the principle of fluorite luminescence, a special lamp is used to place the excavated fluorite in it to achieve the purpose of lighting, and the lighting cycle can reach hundreds of years.
This cheap and long-lasting lighting method was once popular on the continent of Arad. It wasn't until some scientists discovered that the health of ordinary people exposed to fluorescent stones for a long time was significantly affected. Then they knew that the light of fluorescent stones was quite dangerous. Once the cumulative exposure time exceeds one week, health will start to be endangered, and if the cumulative exposure time exceeds three years, various complications will appear.
Therefore, this wave of using fluorite lamps came and went quickly, and was quickly eliminated by the cities to the countryside, and then from the countryside to the remote areas. In the end, only the hard workers in the mines would use it, and in the end even the hard workers could not use it. I started to shake my head and say NO, so the tomb became their best destination, because the dead don't have to consider health issues.
Just from the change of a lamp, it can actually reflect the change of the construction concept of the tomb below, that is, simplicity, practicality, and efficiency. As for the side effects and the like, it has to be moved to the back. At this time, Du Yuqi suddenly understood that the first layer of the tomb that he entered was the method commonly used by real estate developers on the earth-a model room! ! And the lot I entered now is the real grave.
After entering the door, the group of people walked about four to five hundred meters, and Kerik waved his hand to signal everyone to stop, and then said with a serious face:
"Ahead is the depths of the first floor of the tomb. From here, there are already records of ghosts appearing, and these guys also have the ability to be void, and have a certain chance of being immune to physical attacks. Does it feel like a ghost scratching its paw?"
"So next I will distribute holy water to everyone. If you smear weapons with holy water, these undead creatures can rest in peace. At the same time, I have a small suggestion, that is, once you are injured by these undead creatures, then If conditions permit, please pour holy water on the wound immediately, although this will cause you some pain, it will also save you a lot of trouble in the follow-up treatment."
Next, Du Yuqi naturally got a bottle of light blue holy water. The power of holy light contained in this thing has a miraculous effect on the undead. Unfortunately, it has a shelf life, and this period usually does not exceed three days. The cumbersome manufacturing process and the obviously short shelf life make this thing a luxury item. I believe that if the current task is not imminent, the Minsk Holy Church will not spend such a large amount of money.
While distributing the holy water, Lin suddenly stopped all movements, and then closed his eyes. This is because Lin himself has a magical ability called Celestial Eye, which is similar to Asura's mind eye. The way to understand, to explore the world, and the dangers that can blind the senses under its probe is exactly what I went to college.
A few seconds later, Lin closed his eyes and turned around, pointing at the way he came from earlier and shouting:
"Be careful, there are enemies!! There are a large number of enemies appearing from our back!"
Everyone was startled when they heard what he said, but they couldn't find any suspicious signs when they looked carefully. Kerik couldn't help frowning immediately and said:
"Are you sure? There are people patrolling this place every day."
As soon as his words fell, there were bursts of strange whimpers in the air, which were transmitted to the ears, making people feel that there was a cold air coming from the air, pouring into the pores, People can't help but shiver, these whimpers come and go, and they keep circling back and forth in the tomb cave, making people feel even more frightened.
Immediately afterwards, there was a scream in the distance! It turned out to be sent by a sharpshooter at the end of the team. This guy seems to be called Lite. He was a little anxious before, so he left the team and went to urinate. As a result, he stood on the spot at this time, with his hands raised to the sky. It was leaning back, and suddenly fell down in a strange and incomparably stiff posture, and there was a strange sound of "gudu" and "gudu" in the air, as if a transparent person was drinking water.
