Tomb Raider: Starting from the Valley of Insects, integrating Golden Silkworm Gu

Chapter 44 Thousand-year murals return to the famous scene of sacrifice

"Then what should I do now? I see only this vine around me." Xue Liyang frowned and thought, "By the way, Lao Hu, did you bring those ropes?"

Old Hu shrugged, "I thought it was useless and took up space, so I put it at the entrance of the cave."

"It's too late to go back to get it now. If you want to go there, unless another thick vine grows here. But who has the ability!"

Hearing Xueli Yang's words, Shi Lei smiled.

This question was asked in a professional way.

He raised the corner of his mouth slightly, put his hands behind his back, and shook his fingers slightly.

[Vine flower weapon, make that thin vine thicker. 】

After the words fell, a green light flew out from his fingertips and landed on the vine.

In the blink of an eye, vines from other places crawled over and entangled tightly, until the vines became extremely thick and did not stop.

All this happened so quickly that no one noticed it.

Shirley Yang had already started to think of another way. When Shi Lei saw that the work was completed, he reached out and patted her.

"Sister Yang, look, that vine seems to be getting thicker for some reason."

He has an innocent face and watery eyes, those who don't know really think he doesn't know!
Shirley Yang raised her eyes, and immediately opened her mouth wide, "This...is my eyes dazzled?"

The other two also saw it, and were at a loss for words for a moment, not knowing how to explain it.

"Okay, let's not worry about this, let's go over and talk about it first."

"But..." Several people hesitated.

"Look at these toads, some of them are almost full. If we don't leave, they will trouble us in a while."

Glancing at the surface of the water, sure enough, the already fed toad looked at them ready to move.

"Then climb! No matter how you die, you will die, but my fat man must not die by the hands of these toads!"

After speaking, the fat man took the lead and was the first to climb up.

He was big, but not clumsy, and was half way up the climb quickly.

"This vine can support even a fat man, so the rest of us will be fine!"

After speaking, he glanced at Shirley Yang thoughtfully.

Soon, Pang successfully climbed up the fossilized ancient tree.

Several people carried their luggage there first, and then Lao Hu protected Shirley Yang and climbed up.

The two men were as strong and strong as apes, and they soon got close to the fossil.

After Shi Lei broke, he crawled steadily, not in a hurry.

After distanced himself from the two people in front, he silently took out the scepter.

The whole vine is high at both ends and low in the middle, forming a U shape.

Wait until the very middle, which is when the vines are closest to the water.

He swung his scepter and threw it at a red-backed toad.

With a "bang" sound, the toad was hit hard and turned into a pool of blood.

"Strange, why is there no prompt?"

He waited for a while, seeing that there was really no energy to add, so he had to put away the scepter and return disappointed.

"It must be that the level of this toad is too low and has no energy value."

Disappointment is disappointment, he doesn't feel bad, after all there are big guys waiting for him.

After several people stood on the ancient wood fossils, they felt relieved.

Those red-backed toads seemed to be attacking unintentionally.

As soon as he carried the equipment on his back, he heard the fat man shout.

"Come here quickly, I found a good place here."

After arriving, several people found that the good thing the fat man said was a artificially hewn platform.

It seems to be a long time ago, even earlier than offering the king's tomb.

"Don't just look at it, there is still room behind here, let's clean it up, maybe we can see the good things hidden behind."

The fat man's eyes glowed with golden light, and the movements of his hands became more and more agile.

The other three people also followed to help, and after a while, they cleaned out all the dead branches and leaves.

Disappointed, there was nothing in the open space in front of me.

There are neither precious jewels nor famous utensils.

"Hey..." Fatty was speechless.

Shirley Yang didn't care, turned on the searchlight and continued walking.

"Come and see, there are murals here!"

A few people rushed over and saw Xue Liyang almost sticking to the wall, looking at it fascinated.

The two walls are full of murals, on which are ancient people in strange costumes, dancing around the fire, as if holding some kind of ceremony.

He went forward. Although it was very old, the murals were well preserved.

Without holding back, I touched it with my hand.

Suddenly, the eyes went black, and then white light suddenly appeared, just like daytime.

A picture after another flooded into his mind like a revolving lantern.

It was a group of people who were performing a sacrificial ceremony. Their faces were painted messily and they were doing their work in an orderly manner.

In front of them was a puddle of water filled with the red-backed toads they met today.

Those toads were surrounded, screaming and jumping around, as if they had predicted their fate.

Soon, those people were supporting the boat, and there were countless bamboo poles on the boat, both of which were very sharp.

When they rowed to the toad, they used the bamboo pole to pierce the toad's body, and threaded them like skewers.

Just like that, dozens of boats rowed towards the same place carrying those toads.

Then, they stopped at the mouth of a gourd.

Stuck those toads in, and after a while, when they were taken out again, the lively toads turned into flat dry ones.

The slightly rough mouth of the gourd is like a simple dryer, which can dry anything in a second.

As soon as the scene changed, a statue more than ten stories tall with a black face jumped into his eyes.

On the water in front of him, there were countless female corpses floating there, shoulder to shoulder, without any gaps.

The female corpses were in weird postures. They were lying flat on the water, with their arms and legs folded back, as if they were crawling with their backs to the ground.

Seeing this scene, I couldn't help shivering and woke up.

Open your eyes again, the mural is in front of you.

The atmosphere was a little weird, he looked at the three of them, their eyes were blurred, and they stood there motionless.

Shi Lei himself was protected by Gu poison, and he was poisoned by this mural, but the other three people had no defense, so their condition was not very good at this time.

[Will control, you all wake up. 】

In the next second, several people opened their eyes ignorantly, first confused and then frightened.

"Did you see it just now?" Shirley Yang asked tentatively.

"I see, the toad, the priest, and the stone statue of the female corpse of Hayo."

"That's right, I saw it just now. It's like playing a movie in my head. It's too evil." A layer of cold sweat covered the fat man's forehead, and his breathing trembled slightly.

"Is there some hallucinogenic potion on these murals, so we will have hallucinations."

Shirley Yang guessed, but the others couldn't believe it.

"Maybe it's not that simple. Let's not talk about whether there was such a thing in that era. Even if it existed, after a few thousand years, it should have evaporated long ago."
