Versatile Mage: I Awakened Nine Stars

Chapter 143 Murals of Mogao Cave

The little white tiger was very good at digging up a corner of the cornice.

"There's a show!" Tong Zhou looked happy.

After a while, it lived up to expectations and dug out a dark passage with no discernible length. The size of the hole was the same as that in the Ancient Eagle's Nest.

Real hammer!
This guy is indeed the destroyer of Furutaka Kindergarten.

Misunderstood those plump eaglets.

The little white tiger had a proud look on its face, pointed at the cave with its little paws, shook its butt, and crawled in with a shaking head. Mu Ningxue was afraid that something might happen to it, so she also followed it in.

"I'm going in too." Xu Shen hugged Lingling and followed without hesitation.

At this moment, Lingling was already semi-conscious, and he couldn't care about anything else. Even if there was danger in the cave, he could only admit that he was unlucky.

Ding Yumian was worried about Xu Shen and followed him in.

"What about you? Are you going?" After a while, Tong Zhou saw the silence in the cave and asked hesitantly.

"Go, it's time like this, what else can you do?" Tang Yue bit the rubber band, tied up her hair, and climbed into the hole without hesitation.

"That's all we can do." Tong Zhouzheng smiled bitterly and stopped Bai Tingting who wanted to go in. "Tingting, you follow me. If there is something wrong, I may be able to remind you. Then you will be smart." point."

"But..." Bai Tingting hesitated. Of course she knew that Tong Zhou was doing it for her own good, but her pure and kind nature made it difficult for her to accept this kindness.

"Nothing to worry about, I'll go in first." Tong Zhou was waving his hands and climbed in.

At this moment, Xu Shen had climbed through the dry and soft sand, and the magic elements around him became more and more active. He looked at the little Lingling with a pale face, frowning and unconsciously groaning in pain, and speeded up.

It was pitch black ahead, but he didn't even dare to use [Glory], so he could only crawl in the dark. The walls on the side became harder and harder, and they were not as straight as the passage behind him. From here on, the cave began to twist and turn.

It seemed that the little white tiger was not digging randomly because of his temper. Maybe there was a glimmer of hope hidden in it.

Xu Shen felt a little excited and sped up.

After climbing about four to five hundred meters, we finally reached the end.

This is a grotto, about three meters high and about 30 square meters in size.

The most eye-catching thing in the grotto is the huge square tower pillars in the middle, which hold up the dome and support the entire cave.

Facing the tower pillar facing him, a human-high niche was carved out, with lifelike statues of gods sitting in it. The four walls and dome of the cave were covered with colorful paintings.

The elements in the room were as quiet as water. The violence in the cave had changed. Lingling's frown gradually relaxed. Xu Shen breathed a sigh of relief, but soon he realized something was wrong.

Where did Mu Ningxue and Little White Tiger go? ! !

Rubbing the Yuan ring with her thumb, Mu Ningxue's aura was nearby, but the person was nowhere to be seen.

He was alert and carefully circled the tower pillar.

There are shrines of different shapes on all four sides of the tower pillar. The sitting postures and appearances of the statues are different, but it can still be distinguished that they are the same person in different ages.

Xu Shen probably knew something about the origins of these shrines.

The shrines and statues in Mogao Grottoes were not left by the owners of this place, but were specially built by latecomers who could not bear their predecessors to be forgotten in the long river of history.

These shrines and statues were all made of valuable magic stones. Although Xu Shen was greedy, he had no intention of offending them.

He took out his mobile phone and scanned the ancient characters under the shrine that recorded the life of the person, and roughly knew the origin of this person.

The most powerful mage who came to the Sky Poison Kingdom seemed to be the leader of a country. He had a noble status and powerful combat power. He once dominated an era.

But such a peerless figure did not leave the inheritance to the royal family, and Xu Shen couldn't help but stand in awe.

If there are more people like this, why have humans fallen to this point...

He sighed slightly and shifted his gaze to the strokes on the wall.

Since there are no clues about Mu Ningxue and Little White Tiger in the shrine, these murals can only be found.

There are many murals, but the content they depict is outrageous... Have you ever seen three silly sons of landowners see a skinny tigress and two cubs, fearing that it would starve to eat its food? ?

There is also a scene where the protagonist is the old king of the Sky Poison Kingdom. He rescued a pigeon from the claws of an eagle, but he was afraid that the eagle would have nothing to eat, so he cut his own flesh and fed it to the eagle...

"What the hell, I'm more or less seriously ill..." Xu Shen complained, coming to the last painting.

The content of the painting is very explicit and makes people blush.

Three beauties exposed their backs and buttocks, posing and posing around the old king who was sitting peacefully in his arms.

Ah this...

Xu Shen couldn't think of it even if he thought about it.

At this moment, the grotto changed again.

Not only did the statue in the shrine change its owner, but the mural also became unfamiliar.

The most eye-catching thing is a long scroll painting, in which a white deer exuding nine colors of brilliance is elegant and calm, which is particularly attractive.

There is also a picture that is extremely exaggerated. Several people actually ride on flying green oxen, golden rocs, peacocks, lions, tigers, elephants and other creatures, and not just one, but each person rides on a group of flying animals. It is outrageous...

Xu Shen couldn't help but rub his eyes, and it took him a long time to confirm that he was not hallucinating.

At this time, the Yuan Ring had completely lost its sensitivity.

"These paintings..." Lingling's weak voice came out.

"You're awake, Lingling!" Xu Shen lowered her head. Lingling was staring at the mural intently. Xu Shen changed her posture to give her a wider field of vision.

"Is there anything wrong with these paintings?"

"There are records in Grandpa's collection of books that the inheritance of Mogao Cave is hidden in the paintings. If you understand these paintings, you can obtain the inheritance of the master."

"To be honest, these paintings are quite outrageous," Xu Shen complained about what he had seen and heard before.

Of course, the last vivid and erotic picture was also hidden in it. Lingling was still young and she couldn't see those things.

Lingling frowned and thought while listening.

"There is no coexistence between humans and monsters. Whether it is feeding tigers or eagles, it is basically difficult to happen unless..."

"Unless?" Xu Shen wondered.

"Xu Shen, do you still remember the origin of the totem beast?"

"It is said that in ancient times, when humans were weak, there were powerful and kind-hearted spiritual beasts who would instinctively protect weak creatures like humans..."

"Do you believe it?" Lingling asked again: "Ants are also very weak. Will you protect them?"

"Uh..." Xu Shen thought of the experience of picking ant holes to urinate when he was a child, and felt a little embarrassed.

At this moment, an idea flashed in his mind and he understood what Lingling meant.

"You're saying that the origin of totem beasts is the beginning of humans' 'conversion' of demons?"

"It's better to call it 'domestication' than influence, but the price is a bit heavy," Lingling said thoughtfully.

Xu Shen thought of the picture depicted in the previous mural, sacrificing himself to a tiger and cutting his flesh to feed an eagle, and he fell into silence.

The ancient sages have made countless attempts for the survival of mankind.

"So, the grotto you saw before must be older than our current grotto." Lingling pointed to the wonderful scene of a lion and a tiger soaring in the mural.

Those majestic beasts have humans sitting on them.

Obviously, this is already the "post-totem era". At this time, humans no longer need to be so humble when facing monsters.

　The above are all made up and have nothing to do with reality!
