Chapter 959 The True Face of the Evil God

It's dark, cold, and exudes a strong smell of decay...

This is our first impression of the interior of this evil god temple.

The strong smell came from under our feet. The soil was very soft, showing a black-purple color. A large amount of humus accumulated on the ground. Occasionally, some human bones could be seen, but they were extremely strong bones of the human body that were extremely difficult to decay.

It is conceivable that in the long past, this place was also used as one of the places of sacrifice. I don’t know how many people died in the bloody and cruel sacrifices. They may be prisoners of war or slaves, but there are definitely members of their own tribes.

In this ancient and ignorant belief, it is not uncommon to sacrifice relatives to the so-called gods in order to seek blessings.

Brother Yaozi squatted down and grabbed a handful of soil, sniffed it, and then said that this fertile soil was watered by human blood. Countless corpses rotted here, forming a thick humus that left a trace of moisture after stepping on it.

Soft feeling.

It has been so long that even the most massive stone buildings that have withstood the test of time have only become empty shells. The insides have collapsed badly. The bronze bracket-like things are tilting here and there, and countless huge stones have fallen.

, causing the inside to be almost in ruins, the space is very narrow, and there are very few places where you can really stand up and walk. Most of the time, the few of us can only crawl inside along the gaps in the ruins!

An insect the size of a palm, with colorful spots all over its body and densely covered with short, thick hairs, quickly emerged from the soil and jumped onto Lao Bai at an alarming speed. Then it flashed away and disappeared. Lao Bai immediately

His whole body felt like an electric shock, and he asked me loudly what crawled over him just now, and where it went now...

Not to mention him, even I was dumbfounded by the mysterious creature. After thinking for a moment, I vaguely felt that the thing seemed a bit like a springtail. However, ordinary springtails are very small. The largest one I have ever seen is only one centimeter. This

It is unheard of to be as big as an adult's palm, but after thinking about it, I quickly became relieved. This kind of place filled with evil spirit dust and filled with resentment is a good place to nourish dark things, such as springtails.

Small bugs that love scavenging are prone to some weird changes when they live in such a place.

Climbing forward further, we saw one after another many bugs that like to live in humus, such as earthworms, slugs, etc., without exception, they were all extremely large and intrusive, especially the kite brother found one on a collapsed stone slab.

A snail that was nearly half the size of a washbasin. At that time, Brother Yaozi was still joking about running out of food. This was definitely the best choice. He had eaten it before when he was trapped in an ancient tomb, and he has forgotten the taste to this day.

He couldn't drop it, but after the snail slowly poked its head out of the shell, he swallowed and never mentioned it again.

However, I saw that the snail was all green, with strange scarlet patterns on its flesh. Especially under a pair of tentacles, there was a pair of shiny black eyes, staring at us coldly, not to mention being very penetrating.

Brother Yaozi almost chopped off his head with a knife, but when he looked closely, he discovered that they were two black spots. If something like this entered a person's stomach, God couldn't predict what would happen.

Fortunately, although these bugs have a human-like appearance, they prefer the thick humus here compared to us living humans. The humus nourished by countless dead people can satisfy their needs after three to four thousand years of fermentation and fermentation.

All needs, so no aggression was shown, and apart from that, we didn't meet anything else.

Soon after, we emerged from the collapsed ruins, and the first thing that caught our eyes was an astonishingly tall statue of a god in the middle.

This statue is made entirely of bronze and is three to four meters high. It is carved into the image of a monster with a flat human face. Both the cheekbones and the bridge of the nose are strangely flat and almost connected together, close to the mouth.

Suddenly, an eagle-shaped nose tip protruded from the place, and the brows and eyes were indescribably gloomy. The most amazing thing was that it actually had the body of a bird, with two wings spread out. It was extremely exaggerated, and it suddenly stopped the person above from falling down.

Many huge stones formed a space inside the nearly collapsed temple.

"My dear, is this the evil god who seeks life?"

Lao Bai raised his head and shined a flashlight on it, and murmured: "I finally know why Xing Wei works for this thing. He even confessed to it himself. This is his ancestor!!"

There is no doubt that this is the true face of the so-called Evil God. It is worshiped here, and the statue it casts is almost equivalent to his incarnation. Only in this way can it be given the right name. After all, it is not similar to Buddha, Taoist, etc.

A real god must have a name when receiving offerings and enjoying blood food. This is the same as burning paper money to the underworld. To be more formal, you must first call the deceased by name and remind them to receive the money. It is also necessary to burn the place again.

It is necessary to draw a circle, otherwise, the paper money will be burned and it will be a different matter if it does not reach the hands of the sinner.

It's similar here. If there wasn't such a process, if people weren't willing to offer sacrifices, without these rituals, all the dead would be his prey, and it wouldn't be a big deal if they were struck by thunder and lightning.

However, when the flashlight shook, there was a flash of gold.

Immediately, I grabbed Lao Bai's wrist to stop him from shaking back and forth. After looking at it carefully for a while, I shook my head slightly: "This is not the image of Yumin. It does look similar at first glance, but it is definitely not the same thing.

The biggest characteristic of the Yumin is that they have human bodies with bird feathers, white hair and red eyes. To put it bluntly, except for having feathers and wings, they are not much different from us people. We have also seen Xing Wei's bird-like appearance, and his feathers are black

. But the statue in front of me has rusted over time. This is inevitable, but you can still see that it has gilt on it. There should have been other colors on it. If you don’t believe it, look carefully. This bronze statue has rust on it.

The rust color is different in the rusted areas, which means that it used to be pigmented.

This thing, the body of a bird, should have colorful feathers, but it has a human face..."

"Is it what a bird monster looks like after becoming a spirit? Is it a... monster?"

Brother Kite murmured, obviously still immersed in my previous inference, thinking that this might be some kind of bird in the mountains becoming a spirit.

The appearance of this thing is indeed a bit beyond our knowledge. For a while, it was difficult for several of us to make a conclusion.

Suddenly, my eyes focused on the bottom of the statue. There were many collapsed stones scattered there, forming two "stone mounds". Interestingly, the two stone mounds were actually about the same size, one on the left and one on the right.

The two sides of the statue are extremely symmetrical.

"There's a problem there, Wushuang, help me and clean it up with me!"

I put the Baipi knife on my waist, took out the crowbar and went up. Seeing this, Brother Yaozi and the others came up to help.

The rock mound was not big and was cleared quickly.

Below, there are two more bronze sculptures.

However, compared to the statue of the Evil God, these two bronze statues are much smaller, no more than half a meter at most. They have bases underneath, and the carvings are not weird. They are just two birds with very long legs.

At first glance, the red-crowned crane looks a bit similar, except that it was slightly deformed by the falling rocks. One of its legs was broken and the base fell off.

One of them maintains the original appearance of bronze. Although there is rust, the rust is normal, which is the beautiful color of bronze. This statue should not have been painted before.

There is another statue, which was once gilded, but now it has turned black and has fallen off badly.

"Cyan, gold, and this image..."

Qian Guangqi stared at it for a moment and suddenly said: "This seems to be the legendary Qing Tao and Huang Qi!"

After saying this, he seemed to have thought of something, and he looked up in horror at the statue of the Evil God in the middle, with shock in his eyes, and murmured: "I... seem to know what this Evil God is.

, you... have all guessed wrong, it is not a monster, it has a huge background!!"
