Chapter 613: Altar Statue
After taking revenge on the princess, the sorcerer hurriedly left the palace, and the princess fell into an eternal slumber, and the people in the palace tried everything to wake the princess, and naturally could not announce the result of choosing a husband, and those who waited did not know the reason, and became anxious and rioted.
And the wizard didn't even let the princess go, but began to spread rumors, saying that the princess still hadn't changed, and she hadn't thought about choosing a husband at all!
The news quickly spread throughout Loulan, although someone in the palace clarified, but it couldn't be believed, after all, no one believed it, someone could fall asleep and never wake up.
The Skeleton King was silent for a moment before he said: "Later, even the true god seemed to have given up on Loulan, feeling that the princess had broken her oath and brought punishment to the entire Loulan Kingdom. ”
The story of the Skeleton King is finished, but Xi Bai and the others are looking at each other, this story sounds very magical! But what is the purpose of the other party telling them this story? However, the dream dome next to him suddenly frowned, and quietly looked at the skeleton king with a scrutinizing gaze.
"King Loulan, don't you know what we can do?" Xi Bai pondered for a moment and decided to take the initiative to ask.
The Skeleton King nodded hurriedly and said, "It would be great if a few adventurers from afar were willing to help!" You don't know, the true god has cursed the whole Loulan, the vast majority of the dead people here can not get peace, only in front of the statue of the true god in the depths of the palace, offering the freshest blood, can calm the anger of the true god, the people here can be rested, if a few can save the kingdom of Loulan, I am willing to give my collection to you. ”
Xi Bai and the others' eyes lit up when they heard this, and the ghost wind chimes next to them jumped up happily and shouted, "Treasure, there is really a treasure!" ”
Xi Bai raised his eyebrows, if it was just blood, it would naturally be easy to do, but what made him a little strange was that why didn't they receive a prompt from the system to remind them to accept the task? However, he encountered too many strange things, and after a little thought, he didn't take it to heart.
"Where is the statue of the true god?" Xi Bai was going to complete the task quickly, and asked the skeleton king.
"The statue of the true god is behind this great hall, and it is a large hall with an altar in it, and above the altar is the statue of the true god, remember, there must be a lot of blood! Okay, adventurers from afar, the rest will be left to you, and may the people of Loulan be at peace. The Skeleton King said and disappeared directly into the dragon chair.
Several people looked at each other, originally seeing that the other party was a skeleton, and thought that there was going to be a big battle, but they didn't expect to receive a task, but Mengqiong's face was a little unsightly, and said, "Don't you think this thing is a little strange?" ”
A few people were stunned for a moment, and the ghost wind chime said, "Strange? What's weird? What are you talking about, Aunt Qiong! Let's go find the altar, I can't wait to see what the treasure is! ”
"Maybe I'm thinking too much." Mengqiong shook his head and smiled, didn't say anything more, and looked for a way to the depths of the palace with the others.
The exit is not difficult to find, it is a small door next to the dragon chair, coming out of the small door, several people went all the way, and soon found the large hall with an altar, and there was no accident along the way.
"Look, that's the altar, and there's the statue of the True God on it!" The ghost wind chimes ran all the way ahead, and they had long forgotten the fear of the ghostly corpse.
Xi Bai looked forward, and sure enough, in the empty hall, he saw an altar, which was about ten meters in diameter and was full of symbols, and in the middle of the altar, there was a statue.
The statue depicts a monster with a human upper body and a snake on the lower body, which seems to be a man with long hair, but the long hair is snakes! If the image is a woman, it is very similar to Medusa from an old game, but it is the image of a man.
Xi Bai raised his eyebrows, this is the statue of the true god? How doesn't it feel like it! On the contrary, it looks like a monster, but some of the so-called gods originally looked strange, who knows which gods this Loulan ancient city believes in, and there is nothing strange about this appearance.
"The statue has been found, what about the blood? It's not going to be let's bleed, is it? Xi Bai asked the others.
"Wind Chimes, haven't you been thinking about treasures? Now the opportunity has come, and this most important part is up to you. A song of detachment quipped at the ghost wind chimes on the side.
The ghost wind chime looked serious, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Bloodletting is bloodletting, isn't it just a little blood?" What is there to be afraid of! ”
This girl really dares to do anything for the sake of treasure, so she took out a knife and slashed hard at her wrist, and blood flowed out immediately. Xi Bai raised his eyebrows, his heart is really good! Could it be that this girl really has the idea of cutting her wrists to commit suicide on weekdays?
Fortunately, this is in the game, bleeding is really not a big deal, as long as the amount of blood is replenished in time, and as the blood falls on the head of the statue, there is no change at first, but after a while, the statue's full head of snake hair is actually dyed with a layer of red, as if it has become a blood snake! And the eyes that were originally stones actually had a strange red light flashing, as if they were about to come back to life.
"What are you doing! Stop it! Just when Xi Bai and the others waited patiently and waited for the task to be completed, an anxious angry shout sounded from behind everyone, and several people were startled and hurriedly looked back.
Then everyone's faces changed, and the person behind them was none other than the beautiful woman in the sarcophagus they had met in the small room of the cellar.
The other party was dressed in a red dress, bewitching and beautiful to the extreme, especially the other party's eyes are open now, which are like black gems, like eyes that can suck people's souls in, which suddenly made everyone lose their minds, and even Xi Bai couldn't return to his senses for a long time, until an internal force in his body circulated around the meridians around his eyes, and then he came back to his senses.
I was very amazed in my heart, how did the other party do it? Is this a special martial art?
"If you hear it, stop it, or it's going to be too late!" Seeing that everyone was motionless, the beautiful woman shouted again.
Only then did everyone come back to their senses, and Dream Dome said to the ghost wind chime: "Wind chime, you stop first and listen to what she will say?" ”
"Huh? Why! "The ghost wind chimes are a little reluctant.
"You just stop first, what's the matter, I won't listen to me?" Mengqiong said with a grim face.
Seeing that Mengqiong's expression became serious, the ghost wind chime seemed to be a little scared, and quickly stopped the blood, and whispered: "People just stop!" Aunt Qiong, why are you angry! ”
Mengqiong didn't have time to pay attention to her now, but looked at the beautiful woman and said, "The girl is the princess of the Loulan Kingdom?" ”
Seeing that the ghost wind chimes finally stopped, the beautiful woman breathed a sigh of relief, nodded when she heard the words, and said, "Yes, I am the princess of Loulan, how do you know?" ”
Xi Bai had already had such a guess in his heart, and when he heard the other party admit, he was not surprised, and said: "We have heard your story, so we naturally know that you are a princess." ”
"Humph! I can't tell you that you're still an alcoholic! You can't deceive people, but you're not a bad person because you've been framed by a wizard after all. The ghost wind chime snorted coldly.
The beautiful woman's eyes were a little confused, and she said, "What are you talking about?" Why don't I understand, did you see the wizard? What is my story? ”
"We didn't see the wizard, we met your father, King Loulan, but he is now a skeleton, and we are here to be able to unlock the curse of the true god of Loulan and let the people of Loulan be at peace." Dream Dome Reality briefly talked about the encounter between himself and the others and the Skeleton King, and then talked about the purpose of their trip.
But I didn't want the beautiful woman, that is, Princess Loulangong, to hear this, but her face changed greatly, and said, "You guys have been fooled!" That's not my father at all, that's the wizard! ”
The ghost wind chime was stunned when he heard this, obviously disbelieving, and said: "This is impossible, I don't think you are the princess of Loulan!" Or you are a bad person, otherwise Loulan who would not have harmed was cursed by the true god! ”
Of course, the reason why she said this, maybe what she thought in her heart, was that she hadn't forgotten the task given to her by the Skeleton King, in fact, she was still for the treasure, if the beautiful woman in front of her was really Princess Loulan, and what she said was true, then wouldn't it mean that she wouldn't be able to get the treasure! So what the other party said must be false!
Mengqiong smiled bitterly when she heard this, shook her head and said, "You girl! Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be confused, haven't you found such a big loophole in this matter? ”
The ghost wind chime looked puzzled and said, "Aunt Qiong, what are you talking about?" ”
"I'm saying that the previous Skeleton King was fake, and I'm afraid what the other party said is not all true." Mengqiong said a little speechlessly, in fact, she had doubts before, but she couldn't find evidence, until Princess Loulan appeared and said the identity of the skeleton king as a wizard, she was sure that her judgment was not wrong.
The ghost wind chime was shocked when she heard this, although she didn't want to admit it, but she knew that her aunt's IQ was much higher than herself, and what the other party said had always been very correct! But now she was not happy at all, after all, if this was the case, then her treasure was gone?
"Ameng, what the hell is going on?" A song of leaving people actually didn't understand what was going on, and asked Meng Qiong in confusion.
"I don't know the specific things, let's listen to what this Princess Loulan has to say." Mengqiong shook his head and said.
