As the candle-like burning objects in the tunnel were lit up little by little.
The sparkling firelight illuminated the rock wall here, which was previously in darkness.
Although everyone's senses have been improved in the form of creation, there are really no murals carved on the rock wall.
And the murals carved here also appear in everyone's field of vision.
And under the illumination of the fire, there is a stream of color.
The curling clouds reveal a corner of the cold moon, and the bottom is pitch black, which does not mean that there is no light, but that it is blackened.
As the mural continues to extend forward, the curling clouds gradually spread out, like a stop-motion animation.
After that, the moon gradually appeared, and while it appeared, there was also cold light shining below, and the darkness began to gradually fade.
As the last moon appeared completely, it was a full moon, and the darkness below completely disappeared, turning into a dark green bamboo forest.
This all looked normal, just the normal appearance of the full moon lighting up the bamboo forest below.
But from here on, the mural behind changes.
A black shadow appeared in the bamboo forest. The black shadow reached out and plucked the moon from the sky.
And swallowed it in one gulp, and then fell into darkness again.
But after the darkness, it lit up again, because the moon hung in the sky again.
It was still the full moon, but the color had changed from the cold color before to the blood red color now.
The red light also turned the bamboo forest below red, as if stained with a layer of blood.
In the last painting, a smiling face gradually appeared in the full moon.
A strange smiling face, looking down at everything below.
Once here, the content of the mural is gone.
Everyone looked at the content of this mural and was a little confused, not understanding what it was about at all.
I only know that it must be related to Xiaoyue Sect, but what is the relationship?
Among them, Zhuge Hongjing looked at it and muttered based on his own understanding of the content of the picture.
"The moon illuminates the darkness, and the thing in the darkness consumes the moon and takes its place."
"But it is no longer the moonlight that illuminates the earth, but the red blood light..."
Listening to Zhuge Hongjing's muttering, most people looked at him.
Someone also asked: "You know?"
"What is that thing in the dark? Is it the other gods? Otherwise, how could it swallow the moon."
"The red blood light shining on the earth is an ominous sign, isn't it?"
Zhuge Hongjing chuckled softly: "I am just making speculations. Who knows what these things of the Moon God Sect mean."
But Chen Hui started to think thoughtfully.
"That's understandable, then that's understandable."
"The moon at the beginning was normal, which means it is still normal."
"The black shadow appears after the darkness disappears. Is the black shadow the darkness?"
"Then the shadow swallowed up the moon. It didn't mean it was swallowed up, but it meant that the moon had gained the power of darkness."
"The smiling face and color change that appears later represent the moon becoming a deity."
Listening to Chen Hui's explanation, the others also felt as if they suddenly understood.
It seems that all the ideas have been opened up.
"Yeah, that's understandable."
"This mural is still too abstract, and there is no text label, otherwise the devil would know what it means."
"Forget it, it's better not to pay attention to this and continue looking for the Smiling Moon Sect ahead."
Everyone withdrew their gaze and decided to move on and not waste unnecessary time here.
In this dark and damp underground tunnel, no one wants to stay here for one second longer.
But just after Shen Hui and the others left, a strange smiling face appeared on the moon on every mural.
Between the mural of the black shadow swallowing the moon and the mural of the red moon appearing.
The completely black mural was used to represent the darkness of the world when the moon disappeared. At this moment, the darkness on it also began to disappear little by little.
After the darkness disappeared, there was not nothing underneath, but a mural.
And it connects the previous and the following, and is connected with the devouring of the moon and the appearance of the red moon.
The shadow swallowed the moon, but then exploded and died.
The body exploded, blood splattered everywhere, and the bamboo forest was stained red, and the moon was even stained red.
The moon hung high in the sky again, emitting red light through the blood...
Then there is the mural of the moon showing a weird smile.
It's not that the shadow swallowed up the moon and replaced it, or that the moon gained some dark power.
But the shadow that swallowed the moon died...
…
Shen Hui and the others, who continued to walk forward, discovered other patterns on the stone wall behind.
But they are all simple circular patterns without any meaning.
Then I saw rooms lined up on both sides next to the tunnel ahead.
Everyone looked at each other and couldn't help but murmur in their hearts.
Are there still people from Xiaoyue Sect still inside?
But they still clearly thought too much, and with everyone standing outside the door, they pushed it open and forcibly demolished the door.
It's just a very ordinary and simple dormitory inside.
A simple single bed, a table, and some simple daily necessities.
There is also a circular formation carved on the ground.
But the depictions of some components have been obliterated. It is obvious that this formation has been used or abandoned.
Chen Hui and some people walked in and took a closer look. It was very clean inside and there was basically no dust.
Obviously there were people living here not long ago. Maybe the people of Xiaoyue Sect also evacuated from here after receiving some news?
While Chen Hui was thinking about it, he found a photo on the table that was held down by a water glass.
Chen Hui picked it up and took a look. On it was a photo of a little boy happily taking a photo in the park under the full moon, making a "yeah" gesture.
"This should be a photo of the Xiaoyue cultist who lives here when he was a child, right?"
Chen Hui muttered and flipped through the photos.
I found a sentence written after the photo.
"In the dark night, He looks at us like a warm mother. Today, I will follow my mother."
"Following mother? This mother refers to the god in Xiaoyue Sect, right?"
"But following, does it mean joining the Laughing Moon Sect or what?"
Chen Hui muttered quietly, but soon had another idea in his mind.
This rhetoric is more similar to a rhetoric in the Cult of Titan...
"Brother Shen, what are you looking at? This is a photo of the Smiling Moon Cult?"
Ye Long didn't know when he came up behind Shen Hui and asked.
Chen Hui nodded: "That's right, take it out and let people check it. Some clues may be found."
Chen Hui said and put the photo into his pocket.
Just when Shen Hui was about to continue checking, someone outside suddenly shouted:
"Everyone, come out and see!"
