Chen Tao's heart was beating wildly and his fingers were shaking uncontrollably. At this moment, the three of them were afraid that their game would be over.
Escape?
Chen Tao glanced at the door of the hall. The sky was completely white. Although there was no sun now, he could already see everything around him clearly. Even if he sneaked out even half a step, he would be discovered.
There were no less than thirty or forty people guarding the entrance and the outside of the hall in darkness, each holding a gun. Unless the Flash was on top, Chen Tao and the others would not be able to escape even if they had wings.
"Did you hear that! Give me the key quickly!" The bearded man glanced anxiously at the horizon outside the hall, and urged again: "Hurry up and hand over the key!"
Several of the surrounding minions quickly raised their guns and pointed them at Chen Tao and the other two, and two of them directly pulled out their machetes and placed them on the necks of Ye Rong and Hao Zi.
"Where's the key! Hand it over quickly!" The bearded man was clearly angry and grabbed Chen Tao's collar. "Hurry up and hand it over, or I'll kill them!"
"Bah! Kill me if you want, don't talk nonsense! Stop threatening my buddy with me!" Although Haozi has a clever temper, but when it comes to a critical moment, he is also a master whom his relatives don't recognize, and he doesn't know what his 250-year-old energy is. It came out of nowhere.
Haozi was not afraid of death, but it was different when hearing these words in Chen Tao's ears.
"I...that..." Chen Tao scratched his heart anxiously, cold sweat broke out down his spine, and he didn't even dare to look into the bearded eyes. He was not a good liar. Chen Tao originally wanted to fool him with something, but the bearded man was not a fool. He obviously knew the so-called key. Chen Tao complained in his heart.
Grandpa, grandpa, what on earth did you take away from here! I've never seen this before. Where can I get the key for you?
Chen Tao pursed his chapped lips and glanced at Haozi and Ye Rong with an apologetic look.
"sorry......"
He grabbed his fists in despair and sighed heavily in his heart, "See you in the next life..."
"Hurry up and hand over the keys to me!" The bearded man grabbed Chen Tao's collar and roared. He sprayed saliva on Chen Tao's face, and his head was about to be shaken off by him.
Chen Tao smiled bitterly, "I..."
Before the words were spoken, the bearded man's eyes froze, staring at Chen Tao's neck, and then a hand was fiercely inserted into Chen Tao's collar. Chen Tao felt a pain on the back of his neck, and when he looked again, there was something on the bearded hand.
Is this...that bead?
Chen Tao was completely stunned. This bead was hidden by his grandfather in the wooden box with the strange blood letter and left to him. Chen Tao has been wearing it as an amulet for so many years.
Is it possible...
Not allowing Chen Tao to continue guessing, the bearded man suddenly let go of his hand, glanced anxiously outside the hall, pushed away the few minions blocking the way, and climbed up to the rat-headed statue on the left in three or two steps. , placed the bead on the tip of the small pyramid-shaped object in the stone statue's hand
.
Outside the hall, the boundary between the eastern horizon and the sky becomes more and more obvious. The clouds become lighter but whiter. The entire sky has turned white. Suddenly, in the east where the sky is the whitest, a red arc breaks through the horizon, and a golden light breaks through the darkness. A circular hole above the main hall shone on the bead, and then something unexpected happened to Chen Tao.
The sun shone on the beads, and the originally plain beads seemed to be wrapped in a golden halo for an instant. Then, the halo expanded rapidly, illuminating the entire hall in an instant. Countless halos of light reflected on the surrounding stone walls, and the reliefs seemed to come alive in an instant.
"The boundary between life and death, the line connecting hell and the world!" Ye Rong exclaimed!
"What's the boundary between life and death?" Chen Tao was confused and quickly turned around to ask Ye Rong.
"Tatunaan is a cursed underground city of the dead. Living people cannot enter hell! If you want to enter, you must pass through the boundary between life and death, and pass through the line connecting the world and hell!"
"What do those things you mentioned have to do with my beads?"
"In Tatunaan culture, daytime represents life and the world, and night represents death and hell. What separates the two is the first ray of light at sunrise. Your bead was taken away from here by Chen You. The key to Tatunaan!"
Although he had already guessed it, Chen Tao was still deeply shocked when he heard Ye Rong say it himself.
Grandpa actually left himself the key to Tatunaan. Did he already know that such a day would come?
Thinking about the strange letter again, Chen Tao's head buzzed and his hair stood on end.
Could it be that the bloody letter with the same handwriting as his own was written by him? Is there really such nonsense as time travel?
Chen Tao stared blankly at the bead on the hand of the stone statue. Under the rays of the sun, the surface of the bead began to turn golden and shiny. In an instant, the originally dim hall was filled with light, and a slender refracted line The light rises from the pyramid in the hands of the Sun Rat God and shines directly on the top of the hall.
Looking up and taking a closer look, I saw that where the light shined, there was also a golden small pyramid. The light scattered from the top of the tower and connected to all directions on the top of the temple.
one.......
two.......
Three...
Small pyramids lit up in the darkness at the top of the hall. At the moment when the world first opened, they were like stars all over the sky. The light points connected together to form a shocking pattern.
It was a tall and burly rat-headed colossus, with one hand raised in a projection shape, holding a spear in his hand. The tip of the spear connected with the edge of the weapon held by the God of War, and a thin line was projected downward from the connection. The long ray of light divided the entire God of War Hall into Yin and Yang, and at the junction in the middle, there seemed to be a relief sculpture covered by sand.
Is that bead the so-called key? Chen Tao's eyes widened and he looked at everything around him in disbelief.
How could there be something so helpless in this vast desert?
Something to believe in!
The bearded man took three steps and two steps at a time, and rushed over with a few swoops, wiping away the sand and dust on the relief with his hands.
Above the relief, the originally chaotic scene is covered by light. A rectangular outline appeared on the stone wall. Within the scope of the light, the relief that originally became dreamlike due to the halo of the beads changed again. Countless castle towers actually appeared, and in the middle of the countless buildings, there were actually An oasis, covered with tall palm trees, and in the center of the oasis, a large royal city can be vaguely seen.
"This is... Tatunaan!" Ye Rong couldn't help but exclaimed.
Under the halo of light, the entire oasis and the royal city are like a dream. People standing nearby can seem to see the golden beach on the oasis, shining dazzlingly under the sun, and the royal city is full of people. There is an endless stream of people, a magnificent scene of prosperity.
"It's incredible!"
Chen Tao was looking fascinated when he saw a figure suddenly stop in front of him.
Big beard!
What does he want to do?
I saw the bearded man looking at the relief with excitement, mumbling in his mouth, stroking it with his hands, his eyes shining, and his expression became a little distorted.
Chen Tao was about to wonder if this person was sick. Touching a few stones was like touching his own daughter-in-law. As soon as this thought flashed through my mind, I saw the bearded hand stroking around stopped in one place, and then pressed hard!
boom……
The entire hall was shaken, and a lot of fine sand fell instantly from the top of the head, choking people and unable to open their eyes.
Click, click, click...
There was a unique sound of boulders rubbing against each other, and the two rat-headed human statues that were originally facing outside the hall door turned towards the God of War.
In Carosa, the surrounding halo quickly disappeared, and everything returned to its original appearance. Looking at the beads on the small pyramid of the stone statue on the left, it was glowing with a faint golden light at the moment. Although the stone statue rotated and the position of the sun outside also changed, a ray of light happened to pass through the small hole above the palace door and shine directly on the beads.
This time, the light passed directly through the bead, illuminating a small circular spot of light on the boulder slab under the chariot.
"Quick! This is it!" The bearded man waved to the two minions behind him. The two minions pulled out the scimitars from their waists and walked under the chariot, and began to follow the gap in the stone slab illuminated by the light spot. Pry it out.
The few minions around him also drew out their scimitars and surrounded him. There was only a sound of the stone slabs rubbing against each other. They had pried open a crack in the original stone slabs.
puff……
Suddenly, a stream of liquid spurted out from the cracks in the stone slabs. The two minions who were close could not dodge and were sprayed in the face.
"ah……"
The two men screamed, covering their faces and rolling on the ground in pain. Their clothes and the flesh inside were rotten, and a strong stench of strong acid corrosion filled the air.
"It's high pressure and strong hydrochloric acid!" Ye Rong whispered.
"Hmph, a good death!"
The bearded man looked at the two minions on the ground who were already out of breath, raised his hand and signaled
The other two men pried the stone slab open.
The two people were obviously a little scared. They glanced at the bearded man with fearful expressions and then looked at each other. They carefully approached the stone slab, pulled out their machetes and pried it hard.
boom……
The stone slab fell down, turned over, and hit the head of the previously deceased person. There was a crack and a pop, and a pool of white and red blood and brains appeared on the ground.
"Ah... Tatunaan!"
The bearded man was obviously extremely excited, and his expression was distorted. He didn't care about the rotten meat on the ground. He raised his arms and roared at the stone statue of Carosa, the God of War above his head. Then he took the torch handed over by his subordinates and headed there. Taking a photo in the black hole, he just took a step, but stopped again, turned his head and pointed at Chen Tao:
"You, get down!"
