MTL - Urban Tales of Demons and Spirits-Chapter 193 Sacrificial stand

The little girl just repeated her words asking for help, "I'm scared ... please, can you help me?"

"Okay, okay. Bayi Chinese W ≤ W ≈ W =. ≈ 8 ≠ 1 ≥ Ｚ ≥ W ≈. ≤ C ≥ OM" I leaned carefully, "Can you tell me what happened? "

But the little girl suddenly stopped talking and ran back.

"Wait! What's the matter with you?" I shouted, trotting after it.

The little girl didn't run fast. She even looked back at me in two steps, as if she was waiting for me to catch up.

I had no choice but to follow up, shouting and trying to communicate with her.

"Are you okay? What the **** happened? Why did you ask for help?"

But the little girl didn't answer me, but ran faster. A weird laughter echoed in the quiet corridor.

"Hehehe, hehehe ..."

There was a numbness in my scalp, and my steps stopped involuntarily. But curiosity was scratching deep inside me, and I wanted to follow up anyway.

This little girl is the only living thing I met here. Maybe she knows about Wen Jiubai, or maybe she really needs help?

I thought about it, still struggling to catch up, "Hey! Where are you? Wait for me!"

However, just as I was chasing a corner and seeing that I could catch up with the little girl, a hand suddenly stuck out from the dark and grabbed my wrist.

I was frightened, and just when I wanted to shout, my mouth was also covered. I struggled desperately and struck the attacker's stomach in a rush. He let out a cry and let go of me.

I ran and ran, and after two steps I wasn't quite right.

I just hit his belly? The person who hit me just now?

I looked back, and it turned out that a teenager with a weird mask on his face was leaning against the wall and covering his belly, looking very painful.

"Uh, that, that ..." I summoned the courage to speak to him.

"Then you have a head!" The young boy said very politely, and it looked like he was really hurt by me.

This boy looks almost as tall as me, and looks similar to me. He looks like a normal human.

"This is the junction of the yin and yang. There are cracks created by nothingness," said the younger, panting. "If you catch up, she will lead you near the crack. Once you fall from there, it will always be It's gone. And I say 'disappear', but it's not just as simple as death. The crack will wipe you from the world, you will never be born in this world. "

I stared at this strange boy in stun and asked stuttering, "But ... why did she do this? And who are you? Why are you here?"

"Because she is the most dangerous thing to live here, and she gains enchantment by sending her soul into the cracks. And me, it doesn't matter who I am." The boy stood up with the mask on his face, "Important Yes, who are you? "

"Who am I?" I repeated, immediately thinking of my purpose, "It doesn't matter who I am! What's important is, do you know someone named Wen Jiubai? Or, or the soul? Have you seen it? Is he? I came to find him! "

"I do not know!"

I don't know why. The boy in front of me suddenly got excited. He took a deep breath and seemed to be trying to calm down his emotions. "Sorry, I don't know. Because I am also looking for my most important person here, I really don't know. "

"Uh, okay." I watched this strange boy carefully. I felt in my heart that maybe I should stay away from him, "then I won't bother you, thank you for saving my life ..."

As I said, I stepped back carefully and watched the reaction of the teenager. The boy didn't catch up, just looked at me and suddenly spoke.

"Be careful. This is not the world you are familiar with. Everything can happen. Don't get lost, otherwise you may never get back." The boy said, "Follow the fragrance."

"Scent? What scent?" I turned around strangely, but now the teenager who was still behind me for a second has disappeared, leaving only a string of water splashing in the empty corridor.

What a strange person.

Just as I thought about it, a familiar smell suddenly got into my nose. A faint, unexplainable scent.

Is he talking about this fragrance? I stumbled and felt very strange.

This scent has not only appeared here, I have also smelled it in the horrible dreams before, as well as in the old house. It's just that the first two times were just a moment of catching the wind, and even couldn't distinguish between reality and illusion. But this time, I took a deep breath and was pretty sure I did smell an inexplicable scent.

Why does the same fragrance appear in different places? I suppressed the doubt in my heart, raised the torch, and walked towards the clearest direction of the fragrance.

Although all the promenades looked exactly the same, I walked forward unswervingly following my own sense of smell. Before long, a new room appeared in front of my eyes.

This room is very dark and the location is very hidden. No wonder I haven't found it for so long. The scent seems to be concentrated in this place. The more intense it smells, it even makes people feel dizzy.

I squeezed the uncomfortable feeling and groped to find an extinguished torch on the wall. A touch of the torch in my hand against the wall immediately lit up the room.

Although it looks very strange under the blue flame, it is much better than before.

I put my torch in the wall and turned around, almost scared and my heart stopped.

In the looming darkness, there was a giant with fangs and claws standing there, staring at me desperately.

"Don't, don't come over! I have weapons!" I fluttered with a torch, only to find that the behemoth hadn't moved at all, still stood there coldly.

I approached it carefully, and after experiencing things with the little girl and that strange boy, I never dared to take this strange place lightly.

After I took two steps forward, I finally saw what it was.

The thing that scared me to death in the dark turned out to be a huge statue, shining with the luster of a rock under the fire. After making sure there was no danger, I walked over with a torch.

Standing in front of me was an old stone table. The stone table is very large, at least two meters long, and there is an incense burner on it, but the inside is empty, neither incense nor ash. The behemoth that scared me a half-dead before was the statue behind the stone table-a huge nine-tailed fox statue.

I couldn't help taking a step back, looking up at the statue. The statue is huge, similar to what I saw in that portrait before. The statue is sculpted vividly, showing the fox's expression, expression, and fiercely squeezing teeth all in place. The nine-tailed tail fluttered wildly behind it, fully telling everyone how dangerous the nine-tailed fox is.

It seems that it is some kind of sacrificial platform. Does such a huge nine-tailed statue mean that this is a altar for nine-tailed foxes?

But rather than wondering why there are altars here, I was even more astonished by the fierceness of this nine-tailed fox statue.

From ancient times to today, no matter what kind of sacrifice, it is for the style, Yushun. People will shape the image of the gods either kindly or wisely. After all, you have to bless yourself, and of course you need to do a good job in modeling.

But the statue of this nine-tailed fox ... not only does it seem to be close to the kin, but it is also not wise and savvy. No matter who you are, the feeling of seeing this statue can only be fear and fear, just like a ghost.

... is it really possible for people to worship such a terrifying existence?

I raised the torch and approached the statue. It appeared that there were some dense calligraphy and painting under the statue and above the stone table. It felt uneven and felt a long history.

The paintings are murals carved on the walls, which are very casual. Seen from right to left, there seems to be a plot.

The first picture depicts a splendid palace. Many people around the palace kneel in the direction of the palace, which seems to express people's worship of the palace master.

Going to the left, the content of the second painting changed. The splendid palace in the previous painting became fragmented. A huge nine-tailed fox stood on top of the broken palace, and a paw pressed against the wreckage of the palace as if to show off that it had destroyed this sacred place, Opening his mouth as if roaring.

In the third picture, the nine-tailed fox was completely killed. In the painting, many villains ran away, and the nine-tailed fox chased behind them, constantly attacking people with their claws and sharp teeth. Some people in the corner used poor weapons, such as bows and spears, to counterattack, but in terms of size, these attacks can only be regarded as itchy boots.

Then came the last painting. This painting is not the same as the previous style, the kind of hostile atmosphere disappeared, replaced by a quiet and peaceful. The center of the picture is still the nine-tailed demon fox, who sits there with nine tails open behind him. All the people around the screen worshipped at the top of the nine-tailed fox, holding various bowls and plates in their hands, and kneeling down to offer the sacrifice to the nine-tailed fox.

After reading the mural, I thought about it. These murals seem to tell how the nine-tailed fox became a sacrifice object for people, not because it can bless people, nor because it has the ability to make life easier, but because the nine-tailed fox attacked the palace of mankind— — It is very likely that it was the palace of a certain dynasty. In order to prevent the nine-tailed fox from messing around, it was worshipped as a god.

and many more. I narrowed my eyes and suddenly noticed somewhere in the last painting-right here, right in the middle of the picture, there seemed to be something in the mouth of the nine-tailed fox. I brought the torch to it, and it looked carefully that it wasn't anything but a person.

A woman in a white dress was caught in the mouth by a nine-tailed fox. What does it mean?
