I took a deep breath and said, "I will try my best."
"Yeah." Liu Yushu nodded.
After walking some distance, I began to feel tired.
First of all, there was a feeling of tightness in the chest, my heart kept beating irregularly, and I felt very strong palpitations.
At the same time, there is also a sense of restlessness, which also comes from the bottom of my heart. This emotion is even more difficult to describe.
In addition, I felt chilly all over, my hands and feet were cold, my mouth was bitter and astringent, and my tongue coating was moist and uncomfortable...
I know that this was originally a sign from the face before, but after I touched the black sand, the evil spirit entered my body, and this sign became a reality.
Now I have the first three symptoms of the five symptoms of serious illness: the heart is broken, the lips are curled, the liver is broken, the mouth is open and the eyes are black, and the spleen is broken, the lips are blue, the lips are shortened, the face is yellow and miserable.
"You look very bad, do you want to rest for a while?" Liu Yushu said with a frown.
I shook my head, took out some food and a bottle of water from my backpack, and gave some of the food to Liu Yushu.
It's just that now I feel very tired even when I eat, and it's very difficult for me to twist the cap of the mineral water bottle.
The feeling of weakness came faster and stronger than I expected.
After that, I couldn't walk very well, so I wanted to use the mourning stick to prop it up and use it as a crutch.
Liu Yuju held my wrist down, and without asking for my permission, he bent down directly in front of me, and with his hands, I was carried on his back.
"Save your strength and think of something to see if you can feel better. Is the black sand really just the source of the plague? Isn't it a poison? You look like you are going to die." Liu Yushu's steps were fast. A lot.
I gasped twice, but there was nothing I could do. I could only put the compass on my head, but it had no obvious effect.
I said nothing.
After almost another quarter of an hour, we finally reached the end of this passage.
After walking out of the passage, there is an octagonal space!
In the middle is an altar-like structure with a circle of "people" kneeling on it.
Due to their age, these "people" have long become skinny mummies.
All the mummies were kneeling on the ground, their heads hanging inward.
In the middle, there was a corpse standing upright. The corpse was holding something in its hand, looking particularly pious.
Under the altar and on the octagonal wall, there is a door of the same height!
Liu Yushu suddenly stopped at the exit of the passage, his voice solemn and alert.
"Luo Shiliu, this is the place you're talking about?!"
I braced myself and got off Liu Yushu's back. After a period of rest, I felt a little better.
My eyes swept over the entire altar and its surroundings, and a flash of horror flashed through my heart.
The layout here is very similar to what I imagined. The only thing I didn't expect was that there were so many corpses here!
These corpses were obviously not craftsmen.
Although their clothes were severely damaged by time, it could still be seen that they were much better than those worn by the craftsmen.
There are eight walls and eight doors. Except for the death door we came down from, the others are Xiu, Shang, Du, Kai, Jing, Sheng, and Jing.
The altar is the middle position.
The altar is about one meter high. Facing the eight walls, there are small steps at the eight doors that you can walk up directly.
"Who is this corpse?" Liu Yushu didn't raise his hand to point, but I knew clearly that he was talking about the corpse in the center of the altar.
That corpse is definitely not ordinary!
I shook my head and said, "You won't know until you see it."
Liu Yushu raised his legs and walked directly down to the exit of the passage. He took three steps and two steps at a time before going to the altar.
I immediately stopped him and told him not to go here. This is the Door of Death. The location of the altar is also the Bagua direction. If there is a mechanism here, the Door of Death will definitely be triggered.
Liu Yushu paused and asked me which door I should take.
I glanced at the altar again, and then said: "Life, scenery, rest, and death, retreat two steps to the third door, the Sheng door in the northeast." After saying that, I walked down the passage, walked a few more steps, and walked a little. After a while, I felt a tightness in my chest and shortness of breath.
I could only slow down a little, calm my breathing, and then slowly walk to the northeast gate.
After arriving here, I turned my head and glanced at the entrance of the passage belonging to the Shengmen Gate.
On the ground, there is also a city wall in the direction of the Life Gate. Over the years, countless people have dug holes to get in, but unfortunately they can't get in, just like the craftsmen who used to be unable to get out from the Death Gate.
Then I turned back and walked up the steps of the altar in the direction of the Immortal Gate.
At this moment, Liu Yushu walked up to me and took one of my arms.
After going up to the altar from here, no other changes occurred. The altar is about forty square meters, and those who kneel and worship form three levels, but they just avoid the steps, forming an eight-fold angle.
I roughly counted, there were almost sixty-four people. As I got closer, I could clearly see the mummy standing in the middle. The clothes on his body that were stained by dust and corroded by time turned out to be a Tang suit. …
What he was holding was a tray, and what was in the tray was actually a compass!
