Irina remembered that when she was reading fairy tales when she was a child, she remembered that there was such a book, which said that when a certain element in a certain place is very strong and active, elves or goblins of this element are easily born. These goblins are born with
They can speak, have sound minds and consciousness, and they are usually products that depend on something. For example, tree fairies are often born on the oldest trees in the forest, and those who are pregnant in the pure spring water
Spring elves, etc. Although later when she was studying at school, she learned that the fairy tales were half true and half false, but the little girl in front of her made her think of them.
Irina thought of this and asked curiously: "How do you know how to speak? Are you born with the ability to speak?"
The little girl shook her head: "A man came here a long time ago, and it was he who taught me how to speak."
"Has anyone been here before?"
"Yeah." The little girl said, "He asked me to call him Uncle Bearded, call me Undine, and also taught me how to make beautiful leaf clothes."
Irina saw that the white leaf clothes she was wearing were the white vine leaves she saw on it, so she asked again: "Where is the bearded uncle? Has he gone out?"
The little girl Undine shook her head for the third time with sad eyes and said: "He is dead."
"died!"
Undine pointed to the stone room again and said, "He's right there."
Irina looked carefully at the stone chamber. Due to the color of the light, although she had carefully observed it before, she could not see it too clearly. At this time, she discovered that there was a skeleton behind the blue stone statue in the middle of the stone chamber. There were already a few spots on the skeleton.
The skin and flesh were gone, and even the bones had decayed and dissipated a lot. Irina was frightened and asked: "How long has he been dead, and when did he come here?"
Undine shook her head: "It's been a long, long time." She suddenly thought of something, flew to a wall and said: "Uncle Beard said he would paint on it for a day. After he died, I continued painting according to the time he painted.
I’ve drawn so many now.”
Irina held up the spar and looked up. She saw that the entire rock wall was covered with horizontal and vertical carvings. She didn't know there were tens of thousands of them. There was a panic in her heart: "He is there."
How long have you been staying here, why don’t you leave?”
Undine thought for a while and said: "Uncle Beard must have stayed here for hundreds of times. At first, he looked everywhere for the place where he left and smashed the wall with a sledgehammer. Then he stopped looking. He said he gave up.
.In the end, he said that he didn’t want to wait to die here and wanted to go inside to dismantle the stone statue. But...he found something terrible as soon as he entered, and then...he just stayed inside."
Irina thought that the situation Undine saw at that time must have been very terrifying, otherwise she would not have been so frightened. She secretly thanked her for saving her just now, but this feeling was only for a moment, and then she thought that she was trapped here.
In the future, we will not have to suffer the same fate as those who came here before.
Undine said: "You...what's your name?"
"My name is Bev Irina, you can just call me Irina."
Undine said: "Irina, you are injured, can I help you treat your injury?"
"Do you know how to treat?" Irina was asking, but she saw that Undine had already cast water magic, and gauzy water flows surrounded her. Irina already had a shadow about water.
Fear, suppressing the fear in her heart, let the water flow gather on her broken arms and legs. Immediately, the knocking sound in her mind became louder, and every time there was a drop of water in the stone chamber, her mind
There was a knocking sound.
Fortunately, there was not much healing water element, and it quickly penetrated into her broken bones through her skin. Irina only felt that the bones were cold, but not very cold, as if a small blister had burst.
Feeling of disturbance in arms and calves.
After casting the magic, Undine asked: "What do you think, Irina?"
Irina shook her head and said she didn't know.
Undine was a little disappointed and pouted: "Did my magic fail?"
Irina said: "No, I was injured too badly. It will take some time to know whether it has any effect."
"Haha, that's it, huh." Undine became happy again when she saw that her magic had not failed.
Irina looked at the statues in the stone chamber and asked: "Undine, do you know what the statues in this are? Did Uncle Beard tell you about it?"
"I don't know." Undine said: "Uncle Beard said that the statues in the stone chamber are very evil and dangerous things. Uncle was attracted by the strange noises made by the statues, but Undine did not hear any strange sounds.
Ah, I just heard the sound of dripping water."
Irina said: "You are different. You should be a fairy born from the water element atmosphere here. You may not be affected by the strange noise."
"Yeah, Uncle Beard said the same thing."
Irina held on to the wall, looked around along the passage, and asked Undine: "You have been here for so long, have you continued to find a passage out?"
"Hmm, after Uncle Beard died, I have been looking for him, but I haven't been able to find a place to go out for a long time."
Irina's heart skipped a beat: "Then don't I have to be trapped here for the rest of my life?"
Undine hurriedly flew over and said: "Irina, Irina, you must not go there and die like Uncle Beard. With Undine accompanying you, wouldn't it be great if we were all here?
?”
Irina frowned and said: "How can I stay here? I have to find a way to get out, I must find a way to get out!"
This passage has reached its end and there is no way out. Irina thought about it over and over again. If she wanted to get out, she could only go back to the cave above and see if there was any other passage.
Undine followed Irina all the way. She had something she wanted to say but didn't dare to ask.
Irina saw what she meant and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
Undine relaxed: "Yeah, I want to talk to Irina. I have been talking to myself for so long, which is very boring."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As Irina walked, she said: "That uncle with the beard didn't tell you his name?"
Undine thought for a moment and said, "I think I told him, but I don't remember. I always called him Uncle Beard."
"Then did he tell you who he was?" Irina asked.
Undine thought about it again, and then she was still thinking about it.
Irina said: "Forget it if you can't remember it. He has been with you for a few years, and so many years have passed. It doesn't make much sense to know this information. Well, did he leave anything behind?"
"Yes." Undine said, "Yes, it's up there, but some things have disappeared."
"Disappear?" Irina reacted: "It's rotten and gone. The environment here is damp and cold, and some things rot and rot very quickly, but it's okay to leave something behind. Go and see what it is."
After walking for a while, Irina returned to the entrance of the passage and emerged from the gap between the stalactite pillars. Of course, she did not stop observing the situation in the passage and talking to Undine. Irina asked:
"Uncle Beard, where do you put his things?"
"Follow me, here." Undine took the lead and flew to a pile of stalactite pillars.
This messy stalactite group is scattered at different heights, but most of them are very tall and long, and some are connected up and down. Irina passed by it before and it looked like a wall of stone pillars, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
Undine flew to the group of stone pillars and said: "It's right here, the only way to get in is from here." After saying that, she flew into the group of pillars.
Irina followed sideways and got in. Most of the gaps in this messy stalactite column group were very small. Only the path led by Undine could barely pass a person. After walking a few steps in the pillar forest,
Then I saw some cracked marks on some stone pillars, and thought it must be the path that uncle with a beard made when he came in.
The stone pillars were only a dozen meters deep. As soon as they came out, they arrived at a relatively wide space. Irina held up the spar and said: "I didn't expect there was such a cave behind the stone pillars." After another look at the cave, which was several meters large, it turned out to be true.
There are traces of someone living there. Not only are there magic circles engraved on the wall, but there are also many words engraved on the other side.
Irina found some marks on the ground, which should be traces left after something rotted, but not everything had rotted away. There were two glass bottles and some other things in the corner of the hole.
Undine said: "This is where Uncle Beard lives. This is where he sleeps. The things in the corner are what he left behind and I put them together."
Irina looked at the scratches of the magic array on the wall. Although the marks were blurred, she could still vaguely see that it was a simple magic crystal release array, which was similar to the current crystal release array. Look at the other wall.
The text on it described this person's life, the reason for being trapped here, and his last words. After Irina read these, the situation was similar to what she had guessed. This person was also bewitched by the magic sound and entered this cave by mistake.
Because of his limited ability, he was unable to escape and left, so he continued to live here. Finally, after several years of suffering, he finally made up his mind and decided to break into the stone chamber that he considered very dangerous. As for the specific dangers of the stone chamber, the article only said that he found that the stone chamber was depicted in
The magic circle in the stone chamber was a source of danger, but he couldn't tell what magic circle it was.
Undine saw Irina looking in a daze and asked, "Irina, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing." Irina saw the last words on the wall.
The last words in the article hope that someone will find this place and take his belongings back to his hometown and give them to his wife. It seems that he still hopes that someone will come to the mountains to find him, but after so many years, not to mention that it is impossible to complete the last words.
Even being able to get out is still a problem.
After reading his last words, he went to look at the relics. According to Undine, Uncle Beard didn't leave many relics. He anticipated the rust here and put his wedding ring and some other important accessories into glass bottles and sealed them away.
In addition to these, there are two water-based magic crystals, and a diary wrapped in leather and put in a metal box. Everything in this diary was rotten, and Irina stabbed it with a dagger.
