Tomb Raider: Beginning Wu Xie was badly tricked

Chapter 157 Being used as a sacrifice

"The posture of the first person beating the gong and drum in this carving is also different from that of the person in the first statue. Do you think the carvings on these statues are a kind of comic strip?" Fatty boldly guessed while looking at the carvings.

"That should be the case. The paintings on the first two statues are too close, and the carvings on the statues are not much different, so it can't be seen."

"But the people in this carving have obviously walked a long way. If we continue to move forward without any precautions, we are afraid that something will happen after we get here. Just like the people in the carvings fainted while walking, it is impossible to get out alive." Wu Xie explained why he had just stopped them from moving forward.

"Do you see this place in the carving? Does it look like an altar?" Wu Xie pointed to a small platform on the carving and asked.

"Altar? What is the sacrifice? Are these people on this road?" Fatty was puzzled.

"Living sacrifice, this kind of situation is often seen in some sacrificial sites in ancient society." Wu Xie explained in a faint voice.

"So, the road we are walking on is not the Yellow Spring Road, right? Then how did they die?" Fatty couldn't figure out why those people in the carvings died for no reason?

"Pan Zi was right before. Animals have stronger perception than humans in some cases. You can go and see the dead bird, maybe you can get the answer." Wu Xie reminded.

"Okay!"

It was not Wu Xie, Fatty, and Brother. The three of them surrounded the body of the bird in the center.

"There are only two types of injuries: internal injuries and external injuries, but this bird died like a specimen, with no signs of external injuries. It seems to be internal injuries." Fatty touched his chin, looked at the body of the bird, and said leisurely.

"Fatty is right. Although external injuries are more mysterious, it should be like this at present." Wu Xie agreed with Fatty's statement.

"If you want to know whether it is or not, the easiest way is to do an autopsy." And the first step of an autopsy is dissection.

"Okay then! This glorious task is handed over to you, Fatty." Wu Xie was too lazy to do it.

"Why me?" Fatty was a little unconvinced.

"Why so many whys? This is what you proposed, isn't it best for you to implement it?" Wu Xie asked back.

"No, it's not fair, let's play rock-paper-scissors, whoever loses will do it." Fatty didn't want to fight either, so he pushed it if he could.

"Okay, I don't care." Anyway, you can't beat me, Wu Xie doesn't mind playing with Fatty, anyway, it's boring.

"Come on, rock-paper-scissors..."

Wu Xie and Fatty raised their hands and didn't punch yet! The sound of the scabbard coming out and closing came from the side. Then a small dagger was placed horizontally between them.

Fatty was stunned, and Wu Xie laughed.

That's it! Someone came out, they don't have to fight.

Needless to say, the one who drew the knife was the little brother, who had never participated in the conversation between the two. When they finished talking nonsense, he directly drew the knife from his waist.

Under the surprised eyes of the two, he squatted down and began to dissect the bird's body.

The two looked at each other, watching the brother's coherent actions, and could only sigh: Brother is indeed a man of action.

After a while, several people squatted beside the bird's body, holding their noses.

"This bird... ate explosives? How come all the internal organs exploded?" Fatty was shocked and puzzled.

"You can think about what happened. Isn't your imagination always very big?" Wu Xie teased Fatty.

"Yes, let me think... gas? Is there something wrong with the air here? That's not right, then why are we all fine?" Fatty asked himself and answered.

"I'll think about it again, think about it again..." Fatty was so anxious that he turned around and muttered to himself while turning around.

At this time, Pan Zi, who had rested well, also came over. He also squatted down to check the bird's body after the autopsy.

"The bird's body is intact on the outside, but its internal organs are all blown apart. What could cause this? In this case, apart from deep water or outer space, the only thing that could cause the internal organs to explode is a strong impact or severe vibration..."

"But if there is something here that can vibrate so strongly, we can't help but feel it!" Pan Zi analyzed it clearly.

"Can you think about it? Is there anything that is colorless and odorless, not easy to be detected, but can cause harm to the human body?" Wu Xie reminded him earnestly.

Wu Xie's words reminded Pan Zi of some things in the past, and he began to recount some of his previous experiences and insights:

"If this is the case, then there can only be infrasound. When I was in the army, I heard about an infrasound weapon. People can't hear it, but it can cause internal organs to vibrate..."

"If this is really the case, the initial symptoms are dizziness, chest tightness, and retching. This is still good. If it is more serious and causes internal organs to vibrate, the person is completely finished. It is really killing without blood and killing invisibly."

"Fortunately, Xiao Sanye reminded us not to go any further, otherwise if we go a little further, it may be irreversible." Pan Zi said this with a hint of relief.

"This is why I asked you to block those holes before. The holes in these statues can produce invisible infrasound waves, which can make people fall into the trap without knowing it." At this time, Wu Xie also spoke out about his previous behavior.

"No wonder, I just found that those holes are wrong. Even if these human-faced birds can emit infrasound waves, there must be an exit, right? It turns out that the problem lies in those holes." Pan Zi finally solved his previous doubts.

"But even if these holes are blocked, they will only stop generating new infrasound waves. Infrasound waves are not easy to dissipate. We still have to leave here quickly." Pan Zi reminded.

"Then let's go! We are lucky. At least Wu Xie reminded us in advance. We are not like the people in the carvings, who died of liver explosion without knowing it..."

For this, Fatty and the others still felt that they were very lucky.

Wu Xie and the others walked forward along that road for a long time and stopped at a fork in the road. Wu Xie looked at the end of the road not far ahead and said.

"Look, the end of this road should be the altar carved earlier."

"There are many animal corpses along the way. It seems that the more we walk towards the altar, the more powerful the infrasound waves will be." Pan Zi also expressed his thoughts.

"The living sacrifices in the comic strips on the statues should be dead when they reach the altar." Wu Xie concluded.

"We can be considered as sacrifices." Fatty joked to himself.

"I think so!"

"This Queen Mother of the West is really cruel! This is really a road to the underworld!" Fatty sighed.

After that, Wu Xie and his friends chose that fork in the road and continued to move forward...
