The professor also raised a hand to support his forehead. He felt as if a small hammer was constantly hitting his head, causing bursts of severe pain.
But he groped forward with his other hand, staggering toward the place where the red light surged.
At this moment, the iron door and wall have been broken open, but the scene near the coffin is still indistinguishable. That area has been completely enveloped in red light.
Seeing that the professor was about to enter the range of the red light, Zhou Sheng had to take two steps forward to stop him.
The professor's strength obviously couldn't compete with Zhou Sheng. He struggled twice, and then shouted angrily: "Let me go!"
Zhou Sheng said: "I want to find another place to die. Don't do it in front of me. I won't stop you!"
"How could I seek death? This is an opportunity for immortality! It can't be wrong. I already understand the design of the entire tomb!" The professor said persistently, "And even if I make a mistake, what will happen if I die? Anyway,
I don’t have a few years to live, so I might as well take a gamble!”
His tone sounded very firm, giving himself no chance to hesitate at all.
Zhou Shengzhen said: "Calm down, your emotions are under control now, this may not be your real thoughts!"
"No, no, this is what I really think. I want to live forever, even if I have to bear the lives of others, I still want to live forever!" The professor's tone became more and more excited.
Hearing what he said, Liu Ruyan and Zhou Sheng both had stern looks on their faces: "Carrying other people's lives?"
The professor said: "That mural has told us that immortality is an exchange, a sacrifice, and the transfer of one person's destiny to another!"
"And the tombs we walked through were the rituals of sacrifice!"
"But except for Qi Ziyu, none of us have completed the sacrifice process, so only Qi Ziyu is the sacrifice here, and we are trying to snatch the only opportunity to be sacrificed!"
From now on, the mechanism in the tomb has indeed led them to kill each other.
The purpose of this design is exactly in line with the professor’s guess!
"Since you are all noble and unwilling to fight for this opportunity, why are you unwilling to give it to me?" The professor looked at Zhou Sheng with undisguised desire in his eyes.
The professor pointed to the location where the red light was shining: "Look, the ceremony has already begun. As long as you let me pass, Qi Ziyu's life will be transferred to me. Since his long life is meaningless, it is better to leave it to me."
, I will make life more valuable!"
At this moment, the red light became even stronger, instantly engulfing the figures of Zhou Sheng and Professor.
And the bewitching call to leave also completely disappeared at this moment.
Like a machine that had been wound up again, Qi Ziyu suddenly opened her eyes, stood up stiffly, and walked forward expressionlessly.
He took a step forward, and the red light became even brighter, like lovers running toward each other, moving closer to each other.
Liu Ruyan was originally worried about Zhou Sheng being engulfed by the red light, but in the blink of an eye she noticed something unusual about Qi Ziyu.
"Stop him!" Liu Ruyan shouted quickly.
Even if the professor's other assumptions are wrong, the identity of the sacrificed Qi Ziyu is obviously consistent with the situation all along.
At least on this point, her reasoning with Zhou Sheng was the same as that of the professor.
However, they do not think that tourists who temporarily enter the tomb will become the "lucky ones" who are granted immortality.
Zhou Sheng and Liu Ruyan believed that the people who would benefit in the end would definitely be the people of the Tianzun Association. The existence of these tourists might just be a condition that needed to be fulfilled for the sacrificial ceremony.
But when Wei Ping showed up, judging from his behavior, he didn't look like a beneficiary of the sacrifice.
Except for Wei Ping and the others, there are no other living creatures here that can accept sacrifices. The previous humanoid air currents and sounds are just a leftover consciousness, not the real lady stopping in the tomb.
They couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Tianzunhui's gourd.
Therefore, Zhou Sheng and Liu Ruyan's speculation and judgment once again encountered a bottleneck, and they could only take one step at a time.
However, Liu Ruyan's voice did not cause Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang to take action.
The feeling of being hit by a small hammer in their heads still did not dissipate. Their eyes were in a trance and their ears were buzzing.
However, the same thought appeared in their consciousness: "As long as you take a few steps forward, you can take Qi Ziyu's life and gain his immortality!"
Xiao Zhang and Xiao Wang are both in a very bad state at the moment, but their brains are extremely clear and they can distinguish right from wrong and right from wrong.
Of course, almost everyone has the yearning for immortality. But most people's yearning is just a beautiful wish, and it does not go so far as to achieve it by any means necessary.
Although Xiao Zhang and Xiao Wang also think immortality is cool, their reason tells them that taking other people's lives is wrong and they cannot do it, so they both just huddled in place, holding their heads in pain.
Seeing this, Liu Ruyan dragged her seriously injured body, suppressing the blood surging in her chest, and tried to stop Qi Ziyu.
At this moment, the red light suddenly changed direction and headed towards the heads of the two people.
Immediately afterwards, the huge stone wrapped in red light suddenly fell off due to violent shaking and hit the two of them!
If it were normal, Liu Ruyan would be able to dodge in time and even push Qi Ziyu away together.
But now, she was seriously injured and had no time to react. She was about to be crushed under a huge boulder!
"boom--"
"Meow--"
The sound of rocks hitting the ground was heard at the same time as a particularly clear cat meowing.
For a moment, both Xiao Zhang and Xiao Wang thought they were hallucinating. How could there be a cat in the tomb?
But soon, they discovered that there was actually a kitten in front of them, standing gracefully in front of them, both noble and cute.
At the kitten's feet was Liu Ruyan, who had just been pushed away by it at the critical moment.
Liu Ruyan breathed a sigh of relief in shock. Although as a dead soldier, like Zhou Sheng, she was ready to sacrifice at any time, but the lingering fear after escaping from death still made her realize the preciousness of life.
"Thank you." Liu Ruyan said sincerely.
She naturally knew that the cat in front of her was transformed from glass.
She also knew that Zhou Sheng originally wanted to use Liuli as a back-up, waiting for the person behind the scenes to show up, and then wait for an opportunity to suppress the opponent.
After all, no one would notice a cat hiding itself in a tomb.
At the moment, Wei Ping is obviously not the most critical leader. Liuli should have continued to hide for a while, but she was exposed in advance to save Liu Ruyan.
Liu Ruyan felt grateful in her heart, but more than anything, she blamed herself.
She always wanted not to hold him back, but she didn't expect that she would ruin Zhou Sheng's plan after all.
