Chapter 34 The sacrifice begins
Chu Zhen walked forward close to the wall, holding Lin Guihe with one hand and carefully touching the wall next to him with the other hand.
In the past, Lin Guihe could be asked to light a fire, but now it was difficult for Lin Guihe to even walk. He covered his ears with both hands. There were no hands left to light a fire, so he could only walk forward in the dark.
"Do you need me to light a fire?" Lin Guihe's voice was weak, but he still forced himself to calm down.
"No, I'm not afraid of the dark." Zhu Zhen said.
She was really not afraid of the dark. After all, she had worked in a haunted house before, and most of the time she had to turn off the lights to scare people. But this time it was reversed, and she was the one who was scared.
Fortunately, the journey was extremely smooth, and the two people walked out of the cave very smoothly.
After leaving the cave, it was bright outside. Zhu Zhen closed his eyes in discomfort. He waited until he got used to the light and then slowly opened his eyes.
At the end of the cave, there is an open space, and in the middle is a huge stone pillar, which is much larger than the two stone pillars we saw before. It may be three to five meters long in diameter.
There are various kinds of Gu insects carved on the stone pillars. Some Gu insects are hovering on one side, some are biting each other, and some are baring their teeth and looking at the people outside the stone pillars.
The stone pillar is about five or six meters high. From the true angle, you can clearly see the coffin standing firmly in the room above the stone pillar.
The stone pillars raised the coffin high, as if the person inside the coffin was high up, looking down at all living beings.
Chu Zhen looked at the stone pillar and slowly walked to the stone pillar as if he was being lured.
Looking at the exquisitely carved stone pillars, Zhu Zhen couldn't help but reach out and lightly touch the patterns on the stone pillars.
The moment her fingers touched the stone pillar, the chanting in her ears suddenly disappeared.
Chu Zhen finally came out of that seduced state.
Her first reaction when she woke up was not to be surprised at her previous state, but to turn around in surprise, wanting to tell Lin Guihe that the singing had stopped.
Before she could speak, she heard an old voice ringing in her ears.
"The sacrifice begins."
Except for Zhen, she didn't notice that behind her, half a meter below the top of the stone pillar, four small black holes suddenly appeared.
From the four holes, four iron chains as thick as arms extended out, heading straight in her direction.
Lin Guihe noticed that the chanting sound was gone and put down his hand. Just as he was about to let Zhu Zhen come back, he saw four small holes suddenly appearing on the top of the stone pillar.
Lin Guihe felt something was wrong and quickly shouted: "Come back quickly!"
But he was a step too late after all. A wall of fire ignited three meters in front of the stone pillar. The flames three to four meters high completely blocked his progress and completely surrounded the stone pillar.
Lin Guihe could not step forward and could only watch helplessly in the fire. Iron chains were wrapped around Chu Zhen's limbs, but in an instant, Chu Zhen was firmly imprisoned on the stone pillar by the iron chains.
Zhu Zhen struggled desperately to break free of the iron chain, but she was just a weak woman, how could she possibly break free of the arm-thick iron chain.
"Ding dong~" The crisp sound of a bell echoed in the room, attracting the attention of Zhu Zhen.
She looked in the direction of the sound and saw a familiar red dress and a familiar silver mask.
Who else could she be if she wasn't a priestess?
The red priestess stood on the other side of the stone pillar, looking at Zizhen who was tightly bound and unable to move with a smile.
In her hand she held a brass mirror.
That brass mirror looked familiar, except Zhen immediately recognized that it was the same brass mirror he saw at the bottom of the deep pool, where countless corpses were hung.
It's just that the brass mirror I saw at that time was very large, covering the entire deep pool. Now this brass mirror is of normal size, half hanging in the hands of the red priestess, reflecting the bound figure of Zizhen.
.
In her other hand, there was a rattle, the size of a palm, translucent, and it looked like a shadow, not an entity.
Except Zhen Zhen was stunned for a moment when she saw the rattle, wasn't it the one she picked up before?
At that time, she thought it was a reward given by the system, but turned out to be an important prop in the game?
In addition to Zhen's first reaction: the system is indeed a piece of garbage!
She shouldn't have any expectations for the system! It's good if it doesn't cheat her.
system:……
The priestess in red glanced at Lin Guihe, and then fell on Chu Zhen's face. The corners of her lips were raised, and she seemed to be in a good mood.
When Chu Zhen saw her happy, he became even more vigilant.
She moved her hands gently and carefully released a Gu insect.
The Gu insect had just climbed onto the stone pillar from Chu Zhen's fingertips and was about to climb down when it was immediately discovered by the red priestess.
The red priestess squinted her eyes and didn't see her move. The Gu worm rolled its eyes, fell from the stone pillar, fell to the ground, and stopped moving.
Zhu Zhen: Is this Gu insect so useless?
She's also a boss, so why can't she be tricked?! How can she survive in the boss circle like this?
What should I do except that I am so angry that my teeth itch and I want to scold the system?
"Don't waste your efforts. It's useless. Just be obedient..." The red priestess suddenly stopped mid-sentence and swallowed the second half of the sentence.
Except I really wanted to make a good-looking gesture, but you said it all! Do you know that half-talk is very unethical!
But no matter what Chu Zhen thought, the red priestess had no intention of satisfying Chu Zhen's curiosity.
The red priestess suddenly touched the ground with her toes, flew up into the sky, and finally landed lightly on the top of the stone pillar.
Except that she couldn't really see her figure, we could vaguely know that the red priestess had landed on the stone pillar.
She felt a little unhappy for no reason, always feeling like she was stepping on top of her head.
The red priestess sat directly on the coffin without hesitation, shaking the rattle in her hand and humming softly.
After singing for a while, he suddenly reached out and took off the silver mask on his face.
Lin Guihe had been staring at her since she appeared. When he saw her take off the mask on her face, he thought he could see the face of the red priestess, but he did not expect that her face after taking off the mask was actually the same as Ye Xiaotong's.
The faces are exactly the same!
And as the chanting continued, the face changed again.
It was as if the facial features were mixed together on the face, twisted together by a hand, unfolded again, and merged into one face again, but this time, the face looked like Liu Yun's.
After another flash, the face changed back to that of Ye Xiaotong.
Chapter completed!
