Chapter 290 Murals

When the sound of the battle sounded far away, Bishop Miller nodded and said, "We can go in."

It can be seen that he trusts Roldo a lot, or in other words, he trusts the sealed artifact in the captain's hand.

Bishop Miller's confidence infected others, and even Xifa followed them into the cave without any hesitation. Inside the cave is a winding passage that gradually extends downwards, with traces of man-made excavation. On the top of the cave, you can see wooden boards used to reinforce and prevent collapse.

Walking in this place similar to a mine tunnel, Xifa soon saw that kind of monster with no eyes and nose, a mouth full of sharp teeth, skinny limbs and a big belly.

They have turned into corpses, some were burnt all over, some were cut into several sections, and some had their heads blown apart by a blow

Stopping and stopping, it didn't take long for Xifa to see Roldo and see a stone door in front of the punishers.

The stone gate is more than ten meters high. On both sides of the stone gate, there is a figure with blurred outline carved respectively. Both figures are sitting, and the part above the waist of one of them has collapsed.

In the middle of the two stone statues, there is a small door, which is open, and there is a dark corridor inside.

Bishop Miller motioned for everyone to wait, and he walked to the small door, facing the dark corridor. Suddenly, everyone heard a sound of 'woo', as if a gust of wind was blowing from the bishop's body, his dark blue priest's uniform immediately stood up, and the strong air flow immediately rushed into the corridor, pushing forward all the way.

There were a few roars in the darkness, and then the sound of a human body hitting the wall. After the wind subsided, Bishop Miller nodded to Roldo. The team members entered the tunnel together.

Xifa and the others followed, and after passing through a not-so-long corridor, they came to a place with an open sense of space, and saw the corpses of several guards under the light.

Their limbs were deformed by the collision, and dense wounds appeared on their bodies, as if invisible and invisible blades were mixed in the gust of wind that Bishop Miller just whipped up.

Looking at these wounds, Xifa speculated in his heart: Bishop Miller should be the "Wind Blessed One" of Sailor Path Sequence 6 who can drive the strong wind, right? I don't know if he can fly.

"Here are some torches, which use a special ointment that can be preserved for a long time." Hana was familiar with the situation of the temple, and pointed to a pillar not far away.

Sure enough, the punisher found the torch on the pillar, and after a while, the fire illuminated the hall.

The dome is supported by twelve stone pillars. The pillars are carved with exquisite patterns, and their bottoms are all inlaid with gold pieces, which shine with a heart-pounding luster under the light of the fire.

Some gold pieces have been dropped, but it is not known whether they fell off naturally or were removed by people.

In addition, there is a sacrificial altar in the hall, which is piled with various skulls, including human skulls, goats, monkeys, and dogs.

Just like what Hana said, there are many gold artifacts in this sacrificial hall, they are scattered around the hall, and they have been quietly stored underground in the past years, only dust keeps them company.

On the walls of the hall, there are huge murals. Murals are usually used to tell something, if it is a mausoleum or mausoleum, the murals are usually used to show the life of the owner. But if it is a temple, the murals are used to praise the gods.

Xifa walked to one of the murals and saw that the theme of the mural was a river. The river was wide at the front and narrow at the back, with twists and turns. Using perspective techniques, it showed the length of the river, which seemed to have no end.

On one of the river banks, there is a thing with a snake body, a human face, and two wings on its back. It holds a scepter and stands majestically by the bank. In front of it are humans who worship it.

On the bank of the river, there are small boats, and people in twos and threes sit on the small boats. These small boats go down the long river leisurely.

"Miss Hana, where is the hall where the coffin is placed?"

Bishop Miller’s voice shifted Xifa’s gaze away from the mural, and Hana pointed to the front and said, “Just ahead, after leaving this hall, there will be a straight corridor. At the end of the corridor, It is the hall where the three coffins are enshrined, and it seems that people from primitive tribes made sacrifices to the three coffins in the past."

"good."

Bishop Miller turned around and said, "Everyone, we have to go."

Roldo and two team members were still exploring the way ahead, but this time, no guards were found, and it seemed that all the guards had been killed.

Entering the corridor leading to the main hall of the temple, Xifa saw that there was a statue at a certain distance on both sides of the corridor. These statues were all feathered snakes, but unlike the murals he had seen, these statues did not have human faces, but pythons with wings.

When the black stone door of the sacrificial hall was pushed open, a hall that was slightly smaller than the previous hall but filled with gold artifacts appeared in Xifa's eyes.

There are various statues carved out of gold, gold vases cast out of gold, and even golden codes, golden tableware, golden high platforms and so on.

The golden sand alone piled up into a hill.

The main hall of this temple is simply a treasury! There are more gold utensils in it than in the sacrificial hall!

Bishop Miller said in a deep voice: "Don't touch anything in here, everything follows my command!"

Apart from these gold artifacts, the most eye-catching thing in the whole hall is the three coffins placed upright on the golden platform. They, too, are made of gold, and are arranged in finished lettering.

Among them, the lids of the two coffins at the front had already been opened, and they were empty inside, without the companions Hana mentioned.

"how so?"

The girl with the two ponytails couldn't believe her eyes, and she called out to the surroundings, "Chorrick, Burt, where are you?"

Unfortunately, no matter how she called, no one responded.

In this hall, there are also murals. Moreover, here is a circular hall, so the murals on the surrounding walls are connected together, as if recording a story that happened in a certain period of time.

Even Bishop Miller did not immediately check the coffin on the high platform. Instead, he lit the torch and raised the lantern to look at the murals on the wall of the hall. Xifa looked around and found the order in which the murals were viewed.

This group of murals, starting from the entrance, is viewed in a clockwise order, and you can understand the 'story' that the murals express.

Bishop Miller also noticed this, and then stood side by side with Sifa in front of the first mural. In this mural, it focuses on a man who is much taller than other images, wearing a crown on his head with a feathered snake pattern on it, and decorated with four gemstones, as well as some beautiful branches and tendrils. .

He held up his scepter, and with the other hand, he pointed at a sailboat. At the prow of that sailboat was a bust of a woman holding a bottle.

In front of this man, there were rows of people prostrating to worship. Among them, at the front of the crowd was a woman half kneeling on the ground. The woman wore an armlet on her arm with a feather stuck in it.
