Chapter 253 Sacrifice to the Mountain God
Suddenly there was a buzzing sound in everyone's ears.
On the mountain wall above the river, many root/stem plants hang down, and many large dragonflies fly out from inside.
"Oh my god! It's terrible, Lao Lin, the wind is blowing hard."
When the fat man saw such a big dragonfly, he saw that the situation was not good and quickly ran away.
Because of the presence of giant toads and giant dragonflies, which are natural enemies of mosquitoes, mosquitoes are rare in this area.
Everyone climbed on the fossil and continued to move forward. After shaking off the big dragonfly, they walked forward for several dozen meters.
I accidentally discovered a flat stone platform.
This platform is not big, it is boxy and can only accommodate four or five people.
In this fossil forest with crisscross branches, this square stone platform is particularly conspicuous.
It is square and very neat, obviously artificially trimmed, but after so many years, it has been covered with vines and green moss.
Lin Yi simply cleaned the stone platform and picked up Shirley Yang, and then Peacock followed.
As for Fatty and Lao Hu, because the platform was too small, if they came down, there would basically be no room. They squatted on the fossil next to them and watched every move of Lin Yi and the others.
After the stone platform was completely cleaned, the original appearance of the stone platform was fully revealed to everyone.
A relief covered the entire stone platform.
The content of the relief is extremely complex, and the whole thing looks like an ancient sacrificial ceremony. The ceremony is extremely mysterious, bizarre, and weird.
The object being sacrificed was a black-faced god with huge ears, almost as big as the palm of a hand, and a high and long nose. What was even more terrifying was that in the mouth of this black-faced god, there was a white skull in his mouth!
After seeing the object of sacrifice, the fat man said in surprise, "Isn't this the mountain god in the mountain temple? Isn't it possible that there are people in the Gourd World who are worshiping the mountain god?"
Lao Hu touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and said seriously, "It's not impossible. Even this gourd world was probably created by the mountain god!"
Shirley Yang continued to look down.
The relief below shows a group of natives entering the gourd world, tying huge toads one after another with ropes, and then throwing these big toads into some holes in the stone wall. After throwing them into the holes, they emerged from the cave.
There were streaks of black gas coming out.
At the feet of some other natives, there were several small toads. These small toads were all lying on the ground with their white bellies turned over, and they were too dead to die.
"The content of the relief below is so weird." Shirley Yang frowned and said in confusion.
The fat man grinned and said, "Good guy, how do I feel? We have broken into the mountain god's lair!"
Lao Hu took a deep breath and said, "If this is really the lair of the mountain god, it seems that the indigenous people used this method to discover the existence of the mountain god."
The fat man pursed his lips and said with fear in his heart, "Old Lin, Old Hu, how about we retreat. This place is the territory of the mountain god, and the snake god we provoked has not yet been resolved. What if
Provoked the mountain god again..."
Old Hu thought about it, but he always felt that something was wrong. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he said, "Old Lin, do you think it's possible because of the female corpse? Since we met the female corpse, we have been
, something strange happened to me! Fatty, do you remember what the facial expression of the female corpse was like?"
The fat man replied, "It seems like he is smiling, but it doesn't seem like he is smiling. Anyway, he looks quite charming."
Lao Hu immediately answered, "That's right, as the ancestral saying goes, red clothes are inauspicious, and a corpse with a smiling face is the best. It's better to hear a ghost cry than to laugh. This is very unlucky."
Listening to Lao Hu and Fatty's succinct analysis, the peacock turned pale with fright and kept swallowing his saliva.
Shirley Yang's body was also a little cramped.
Only Ji Yi smiled softly and said disapprovingly, "Okay, don't scare yourself. If you want to find the Muchen Bead, this should be the only way. Just cover up the water with the soldiers, no matter what.
Mountain gods, what kind of smiling corpses? As long as they come, I won’t kill them, but I’ll peel off a layer of their skin.”
Old Hu looked at Lin Yi with moved eyes and said, "Old Lin!"
You must know that Ji Yi was not cursed, it was him and Fatty who were cursed.
Now, facing unknown risks, he and Fatty first thought about shrinking back, but Lin Yi helped them find the Muchen Bead without hesitation.
Having a brother like this is enough for this life!
The fat man was so moved that he wanted to rush forward, give Ji Yi a big hug, and said, "Damn it, the mountain god is nothing, don't let the fat man see it, otherwise he must be cut into pieces!"
As soon as the fat man finished speaking, he heard the gurgling bubbling of the river below.
After a while, big toads emerged from the water one after another.
They seem to be larger than before!
Lao Hu complained, "Well, these guys are so persistent."
The fat man glanced at the toad and said, "Don't worry, they can't come up anyway."
The peacock said, "Fat Guo Guo, I heard that a toad's tongue can stick out so long."
The fat man said, "Little sister, if you have nothing to do, read more books. As far as I know, a toad's tongue can stick out at most 82% of its body, and it can't reach us at all."
Lin Yi listened to the two people talking to each other, then looked at the toads in the river with their huge cheeks, and said speechlessly, "Little Fatty, stop talking. I think the toads here are unusual, it's possible
They have developed it over many years of catching food..."
Suddenly, a huge bloody tongue with barbs spurted out from the mouth of the nearest toad.
The tongue was able to stick out four to five meters and licked the fossil where the fat man was.
There was a clicking sound, and the blood-colored tongue stuck to the fossil. Then the tongue contracted, and with a stinging sound, the thick layer of moss on the fossil was ripped off.
"I'm so tired."
The fat man looked at the fossil with moss torn off under him in disbelief. If it licked someone's body, wouldn't it take off a layer of skin?
Ji Yi looked at the fat man and said, "Little fat man, look at your crow's mouth."
The fat man curled his lips, feeling a little aggrieved, but he couldn't find a suitable reason to refute.
God made a mistake for me, fat man.
Shirley Yang's beautiful eyes were fixed on Lin Yi and asked, "Old Lin, what should we do now?"
Lin Yi pondered, "It seems that the only way to use that move is..."
Everyone looked at Ji Yi expectantly, "Which move?"
Lin Yi leisurely took out the grenade he had collected from the American plane and said, "Of course it's a bombing!"
