Chapter 77 Siren's Song

At the same time, the remaining three people were in a state of great pain. Seeing that their brothers and tribes who lived and died together died one by one, they died one by one in the stone wall. Some of the people trapped in the stone wall seemed to be a little awakened and wanted to turn around and walk out, but they could no longer move by just popping their heads or limbs. These people screamed in despair.

For a moment, this place seemed to have become a hell on earth. The remaining three people cried desperately and all collapsed. In this way, the dead were already dead in the stone wall, and the living became desperate and waited for death. The head of Tan Dajia still maintained the same action, as if there was only the pattern on the stone platform in his eyes!

The only person who left the record was still a little rational. In the end, he used his last trace of vitality to leave these records. In the end, he said that he did not know the meaning of doing this, but he just wanted to do this.

The record ended here, and the few of us were sweating in cold sweat! After watching it, no one spoke for a long time! These people from the Tan family persisted for three days, so how many days can we persist? Three days, four days, or a week, but what is the point? Can we change the final result?

Kong Xue looked at me, "Zhuoran, I don't want to die on the stone wall. If you can't control yourself, you must kill me first!"

I touched her head, "Silly girl, I won't let you die!"

Kong Xue let out a light "um" and slowly leaned her head on my shoulder. My heart trembled, and suddenly I felt that it was good to die like this!

The second uncle next to him suddenly coughed dryly, "Well, don't rush to show your love first. Let's find a way out to have a noble son sweetly!"

Kong Xue's face turned red and she hid aside. I looked at my second uncle hatefully, destroying the atmosphere! Old light bulb!

Shi Tao smiled and patted my shoulder, then said, "What should I do? This record does not mention the way Tan Dadang's way out."

Yes! We originally hoped to find ways and clues to get out, but now we still gain nothing from it. Instead, we have a rough understanding of our own way of dying here!

Kong Xue said: "I always feel that this place is like a trap. If you go there, you don't want to go out. You see, there is no way out here!"

Kong Xue's statement mentioned a question: the underneath the black tower is not the passage to the ancient kingdom of Shanhuan as we originally speculated, and it seems that it is not connected to other places. So what is the significance of this place in this ancient city? Is it really just a sacrificial hall as we initially speculated?

This place goes deep into the ground and cannot feel the day or night. Shi Tao looked at his watch, but found that time had already pointed to the late night.

The second uncle also looked at the time and said, "Although it is all day and night here, everyone should pay attention to rest and maintain a normal mental state, otherwise they will soon be unable to bear it!"

Uncle Er's words make sense. Although we are not in the mood to sleep now, we still have to force ourselves to rest and relax.

I feel like there is a huge cage around me, and I will fall into the trap when our spirit cannot support me. We must control our emotions and spirit so that we can last longer and have more opportunities to find ways to get out.

There was no wind at all here, and the temperature was quite appropriate, so we didn't need a tent or a fire. After eating some food, we took out our sleeping bags and blankets. In order to avoid the influence of the flow of the cyst jade certenoid, we found a flat place on the other side of the stone platform to lie down and rest.

Lying on the hard ground, although there was a sleeping bag underneath, I was still very uncomfortable. In addition, I was not calm and I couldn't fall asleep to toss and turn. After listening to the movements of others, I almost didn't fall asleep.

I once naively thought that there was only sand in the desert, so it must be very simple to fight here. There is no need to make a thief hole here, because the ground is full of flowing sand, and there is no way to make a thief hole. This time I came in just to find the ruins of an ancient city and explore the things inside, just like visiting a museum.

However, the facts proved that I was completely wrong. The thousand-year-old ancient country left too many secrets. Below its ruins is a strange and terrifying underground world. Those blood-red sand may be a sign that it is incompatible with this normal world! I couldn't help but think of a sentence that Dawuti often mentioned, that is where the devil lives! Maybe this place really does not belong to this world!

Moreover, we didn’t expect that our experience was related to the large-scale backlash campaign jointly organized by the four major families twenty years ago. And what did those people at that time experience and discover?

My mind was uncontrollably starting to think randomly, but as I thought about it, I gradually fell asleep.

I don’t know how long it took, but I was woken up by an anxious voice: “Zhuran! Zhuoran! You wake up!”

I suddenly opened my eyes and found Kong Xue looking at me in panic. I sat up and asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Kong Xue pointed around and said, "How did I see the shady jade marrow around me? Am I hallucinating?"

I hurriedly looked around, but I also saw a scene that shocked me, just like the carving records on the stone platform. At this time, all the stone walls were filled with radiance of the illusion jade cervix. The scene that the Tan family experienced back then happened again at this time. What made me even more uneasy is that according to the record, the Tan family only appeared on the third day of being trapped, but we saw this scene just the next day. Why is this? Has this mechanism been changed? It is impossible! Such a large mechanism is definitely not something that can be changed just by wanting to change, but why are our mechanisms different from the Tan family? The time was a whole day ahead of schedule!

I looked around, shook my head, and said to Kong Xue: "No, this is not your illusion, because I saw it too!"

Kong Xue widened her eyes in surprise, "Are we both crazy?"

I smiled and comforted her, "It's okay, don't be nervous! It's not that serious. As long as we calm our minds, those stone walls will not come over to swallow us by themselves."

Kong Xue looked at me and nodded. I turned to look at the others and found that the second uncle and Shi Tao were awake at this time. They also looked at the surrounding stone walls with horror on their faces.

If we put aside this environment and the mummies on the stone walls, to be honest, the colorful surroundings can be described as dreams and illusions, making people unconsciously want to get close to it and touch the fantasy scenery like a fairyland. But we know that after this fantasy, there is a killing like hell.

This reminds me of the beautiful Siren in Greek mythology, the beautiful Siren, the head and bird-body sing irresistible songs on the sea, which made the sailors lose their minds and caused the ships to sink, while the crew became the Siren's Chinese food.

We are still able to resist the magical scenery of the magic jade marrow at this time because there is still a glimmer of hope in our hearts. So we can control our minds for the time being. This is actually due to the fact that we found the body of Tan Dadang at the gate of the Black Tower. This makes us feel that it is not impossible to get out from here. This is also the only pillar of our current spiritual world. But I don’t know how long it can support it. As time goes by, our psychology is also changing, and anxiety and panic gradually come. I think there is not much time left for us. We must find a way out before our mental breakdown, otherwise, we will most likely die in the stone wall.

"Look!" Kong Xue pointed to a place on the stone wall and said, "Look! The exit is there!! Is that true? Or is it just an illusion? Is it true?"

I looked in the direction Kong Xue pointed at and found the exit passage. I suddenly hesitated. Is this the real exit?

Suddenly, Uncle Er shouted: "Hurry up! Close your eyes! That's all hallucinations! Don't be fooled!"

I woke up with a tremor, and at the same time, I quickly covered Kong Xue's eyes next to me with my hands, and kept saying to her, "That's fake, it's an illusion! We have a way!"

I was sweating all over, which was too dangerous. If not, with the second uncle's scream just now, Kong Xue and I would probably be hit again. We are not only affected by the magic jade cervix, but also subtly influence each other.

Uncle II gathered us together, "Now everyone must calm down immediately. Let's summarize the discoveries during this period and see if we can find a way out."

We agree with Uncle Er's proposal very much. We must now divert our attention from the illusions and streaming light on the surrounding stone walls, otherwise we will inevitably lose our minds over time.

Uncle Er said to us: "I thought about it all night yesterday, and I roughly understood the structural principle of this mechanism. In fact, this mechanism is very simple. It is roughly divided into two parts. First, hide the exit channel in some way, and then introduce the cold groundwater into the stone wall. By reducing the temperature, it triggers the morphological changes of the illusion jade marrow. Through the illusion color, it creates illusions, and tempts to get closer and then swallows it. In fact, I found that the illusion jade marrow itself is not very confusing. Their power is that it can use flowing light to make people be driven by the strong desire in the heart, causing the intruder to have hallucinations themselves, and ultimately be swallowed by the illusion jade marrow. In other words, those illusions are not produced by the illusion jade marrow, but are produced in our brains after our willpower gradually weakened and our mental power gradually dissipated."
