Soon, the "Mayfly" reconnaissance vehicle stopped in front of a huge rift valley.
On this planet, there were many rifts, but the one that appeared in front of him was the largest one Fang Linyan had ever seen. He had already released the toothpick bird's mourning wood snot at this time. If one looked down from above, it was like a scar on this vast, arid and primitive land!
Fang Linyan came to the side of the rift valley and looked down. He found that the bottom was extremely deep. Because it was almost dusk at this time, he could feel a lot of cold air blowing up from the depths of the canyon. It mixed with the hot air on the ground, giving people a weird feeling.
After arriving here, Black Spear motioned for Fang Linyan to get off the car. The group quickly walked west along the rift valley.
After they walked for 5 or 6 kilometers, they quickly saw an amazing spectacle in front. There was actually a huge rock natural bridge that directly crossed the entire rift valley.
On the big rift valley that was low-key and dark in color, a giant natural bridge formed by fiery red rocks suddenly appeared. Such a scenery was really shocking. They sincerely felt the beauty of nature's uncanny workmanship.
Such a scene amazed Fang Linyan and the other 2. The black spear told them that this bridge was made by their ancestors with powerful divine power, and the raw materials used were the mountains on the other side of the Red Cloud Platform.
Fang Linyan and the other 2 obviously wouldn't easily believe such a statement because if such a project was completed by 1 person, it already involved a powerful force like the creator. However, they also expressed admiration for such a great scenery.
From a distance, a large number of Kyrgyz centaurs could be seen camping beside this natural bridge. A large number of star and moon flags fluttered proudly in the wind as if narrating the glory of the past.
However, the bridge deck of the natural bridge should belong to the sacred place. Only a few centaur priests dared to walk on it. They looked solemn as if they were doing something proud.
Soon, after thinking about it, Black Spear began to mutter a spell in his mouth. At the same time, he took out a bottle of pale red blood as a casting material.
When Black Spear was young, he was also a shaman priest of the tribe. But now that he was old and weak, he had degenerated into an ordinary centaur.
Thus, if he wanted to cast a spell, he could only rely on casting materials and use the mana within the materials to resonate with the energy. Moreover, the casting speed was very slow, roughly five to six times the normal casting speed.
Of course, misfortune was a blessing in disguise. If he still had the ability to cast spells, he would have been the focus of attention in the tribal conflicts and would not have survived until now.
Black Spear had been chanting for almost ten seconds when he discovered that there was a rock about a hundred meters away that was emitting a faint light. At this time, the distance to the Heavenly Bridge was no less than two to three kilometers. The group used the nearby rocks as cover and easily arrived at the glowing rock.
Then, Black Spear told Fang Linyan and the other two to follow him. Then, Black Spear stood on the rock and jumped down directly at the bottom of the rift valley.
Seeing Black Spear's action, the three of them were taken aback. Fang Linyan controlled the toothpick bird to fly down, but his line of sight was completely blocked by the fog. During the flight, he even hit the mountain wall twice in a row, causing almost 20% damage to his body.
Vulture observed the nearby terrain and immediately said,
"I'll climb down first to see what's going on. Don't jump in a hurry."
Then Vulture tied a rope to his body and quickly climbed down. At this time, his almost 40 points of agility played an amazing role. After only 5 minutes, Vulture said in the team channel,
"There is a big pool below, don't worry and jump down."
So Fang Linyan and Vulture did as they were told. When they fell into the water, Fang Linyan glanced at the bottom of the pool and found that there were many vicious traps in the deep water area. He immediately reacted. This arrangement was aimed at large creatures like the hill giant and goron.
Even the strongest centaur was estimated to be less than one-third of the hill giant and goron's weight, so after jumping down from a high place, there must be a limit to the depth of the water.
As for the hill giant and goron, if they jumped down, they would definitely fall much deeper than the centaur. Then they would inevitably trigger the underwater trap and die directly.
"This Zaetar is really something." Fang Linyan murmured in the team channel.
Then, he told them about his discovery. Both Vulture and Mountain Goat gasped in admiration.
After the two climbed ashore, they found that Black Spear was already waiting there. Goat couldn't help but ask curiously,
"Hey, Black Spear, why didn't the Kyrgyz centaurs guard here? We came in so easily."
Black Spear said seriously,
"This is a secret unique to our Magram Clan! Although we are in decline now, we were able to suppress those Kyrgyz bastards back in the day. "
"Not only that, we also have the secret inheritance of the 6 high priests. As long as there are descendants who meet the conditions, they will be able to obtain the lifetime experience and power of the high priests!"
Hearing Black Spear's words, the mountain goat asked curiously. Black Spear seemed to be very happy to spread the glory of the tribe, so he began to explain. From what he said, it turned out that every Centaur who was called the High Priest would leave behind a Bone Pearl before they died.
As long as there were descendants with potential, they could draw power and experience from the bone bead. It sounded a bit similar to the enlightenment or reincarnation of Tibetan Buddhism.
However, the 3,000 paths seemed complicated and troublesome, but the further one went, the faster it would be to return to the same destination. This was not a strange thing.
Fang Linyan thought in his heart, No wonder Brand Haden wanted to annex the Magram Clan. It turned out that this small tattered tribe that seemed to be struggling at death's door actually had such an amazing heritage.
If Brand Haden really did it, then not only would there be benefits in terms of face, but the substantial benefits would also be quite amazing.
Not to mention other things, with the current huge base of Kyrgyz centaurs, it was definitely not difficult to find a few centaurs who could meet the conditions.
With this alone, there could be 6 more high priests who were on par with Verogo. Not only that, Brand Haden would definitely arrange people who were loyal to him. With this alone, Brand Haden would make a lot of money.
Not only that, Black Spear, this old thing, seemed to be quite shrewd, so he would definitely not speak freely in front of Fang Linyan and other outsiders. Needless to say, there must be more secrets hidden behind.
After a group of people climbed out of the pool, they found that the surroundings were also filled with fog, and there were many stones blocking the way. It was not easy to walk at first glance.
At this time, Black Spear also began to chant again. Soon a light cluster that looked like a firefly appeared above his head, then it led the way in front.
The most peculiar thing was that Fang Linyan found that the direction of this light cluster was actually opposite from the Heavenly Bridge.
Obviously, if it weren't for Black Spear casting spells to lead the way, there would probably be a large number of death traps waiting for them if they walked directly in the direction of the Heavenly Bridge.
As a result, after this light cluster led them for hundreds of meters, it turned to the side and entered a gap in the mountain wall. After walking for a few dozen meters, it turned and went down again.
After entering here, they could see many centaur sculptures in front of them. All of them were holding spears high and shouting heroically. After getting closer, they found that the spears on these sculptures could be taken down.
Black Spear asked everyone to take one, then he lit the front part of the spear and walked straight ahead.
Fang Linyan's senses were also quite keen. He felt that after the spear torch was lit, it actually exuded a faint spicy smell. Obviously, some special medicine was added in it. The intention was to use the smoke of the torch to drive away some creatures.
At this time, Vulture also noticed Fang Linyan's gaze, so he said in the team channel,
"There are creatures in the darkness. I feel danger."
The group walked for about 200 to 300 meters in the darkness. Black Spear pushed open a stone door in front, then he found that they had entered a cave.
The height of this cave was amazing. It seemed to be naturally formed, but it was renovated by the centaurs later. The walls of the cave were surrounded by murals of 2 to 3 people high. The murals were nothing more than bragging about the bravery of the ancestors and warriors.
Not only that, many small rooms were dug out around the cave. These small rooms looked very out of place at first because their height and width were no more than 2 meters, and their depth was at most 1 meter.
Almost every small compartment had a jar or jar in it. At the door, there was a pile of stones with spears, staffs, and other weapons on it.
According to Black Spear's explanation, these small compartments were the graves of the centaurs, and the jars and jars were filled with ashes.
After coming to this kind of place, the surrounding atmosphere became solemn. There were even whimpering whispers in the air from time to time as if ghosts were talking about something.
Fortunately, with the leadership of Black Spear, nothing happened in the end.
Soon, Fang Linyan found that the cave they entered was just a branch cave. Under the leadership of Black Spear, they broke into an amazing underground space.
In Fang Linyan's impression, only the underground lake in Veronica's laboratory could be compared with it.
After coming to this underground space, he discovered that there were balls of light in the air. The light was slightly green, but it wasn't the kind of green that would make people feel scared. Instead, it deepened the solemn atmosphere here. It also made the underground space not pitch-black, but like a night with a full moon.
After coming here, they could see a stone path in front, extending straight ahead. On both sides of the path, there was a pair of centaur statues every 10 meters! This should be the mausoleum path leading to the ancestral mausoleum: Guarding Valley.
At this time, the toothpick bird MT suddenly sent a message to Fang Linyan, then it flapped its wings and flew to the side. Fang Linyan's heart moved, and he immediately trotted over quickly.
At this time, Black Spear noticed Fang Linyan's movement, and he immediately said in shock and anger,
"Human! This is the holy land of our centaur tribe, stop your despicable behavior! "
Fang Linyan ignored him, but he continued to rush forward. Under the black spear's anger, it pulled out the spear beside it. It only thought that this human deceived it, but he was actually here to plot the rich burial goods in the holy land.
But at this time, Fang Linyan stopped and dragged a centaur out from a corner next to him.
This centaur was covered in blood, but there was only one wound on his body. That was the penetrating wound on his chest and back. Obviously, he was stabbed by a spear and pulled out.
Fortunately, when Fang Linyan touched his chest, he found that there was still a weak heartbeat.
Seeing this scene, Black Spear was dumbfounded. He said to Fang Linyan embarrassedly,
"Sorry, human, I …"
At this time, he suddenly saw the face of this centaur clearly, and he immediately said in shock,
"Oh my god, this is Kulak! He is Jordan's younger brother, the most powerful warrior in our tribe! "
He rushed up directly, half-knelt on the ground, calling Kulak's name fiercely, and shaking him.
Seeing this scene, Fang Linyan found that Black Spear's method was not scientific, so he could only block Black Spear,
"Hey hey hey, Kulak still has a little chance to live, but you will make him die faster!"
Black Spear stopped awkwardly when he heard the words, then he turned his head and said hopefully,
"You must have a way to save him, right?"
Fang Linyan said faintly,
"No, I'm just here to do some despicable things. It has nothing to do with saving people."
After being mocked by Fang Linyan, Black Spear's face turned red. He suddenly groaned and pressed his left hand on the rock next to him.
Then he picked up a stone and smashed it with his right hand. His left hand was badly mutilated, and 3 fingers were broken. Black Spear endured the pain and said,
"I apologize for my previous slip of the tongue, Mr. Spanner, please save Kulak."
Fang Linyan was also shocked at this time. He didn't expect Black Spear to be so hot-tempered, so he immediately said,
"Kulak is also my friend. Don't worry, I will try my best to save him!"
The 3 of them also learned surgical skills in the space. As the saying goes, a long illness makes a good doctor. They often treated their own wounds, so they could be regarded as half a doctor now.
After checking, they found that the centaur's body was really tenacious. If an ordinary human was hit by this spear, he would have died long ago. Now for Kulak, the wound was not fatal. Instead, the biggest problem was excessive blood loss.
But strangely, there was no dripping blood along the way. It seemed that when Kulak ran here with great difficulty, the blood in his body was almost drained.
After hesitating for a while, Fang Linyan asked the goat and vulture to deal with the wound — cleaning and disinfecting, suturing the wound, and spraying hemostatic gel — then he said to Black Spear,
"Now Kulak's problem is not the wound on his body, but the blood in his body is almost drained. I only have 1 way now. It may save him, but it may not be effective! Not only that, it will definitely hurt you … "
Black Spear immediately said straightforwardly,
"I'm already a bag of old bones, how long can I live? Just use whatever method you have, don't worry about me! "
Fang Linyan said,
"In fact, this method is very simple. The blood in his body is too little, so just transfer some of your blood to him."
"However, we humans have different blood types. Different blood types can't be transfused with each other. I just don't know if centaurs have this problem."
Black Spear said directly,
"I've been to the battlefield, so I know Kulak's current situation very well. Unless there is a priest or shaman to cast healing spells on this child, he is dead."
"Your method is the only way to save him, so don't hesitate. Come on."
The next blood transfusion was actually very simple. Black Spear stood while Kulak lay down. He just needed to connect a needle to both ends of the infusion tube and pierce into the blood vessels of the 2.
After about 5 minutes, Fang Linyan found that Kulak's heartbeat and pulse became a lot stronger. Obviously, the most terrible hemolysis reaction did not occur.
This might be because centaurs really had no blood type, or it might be that Black Spear and Kulak had the same blood type.
Seeing that Kulak's situation was alleviated, Black Spear was also quite happy. Even if Fang Linyan felt that the blood transfused into his body was almost enough, Black Spear still insisted on transfusing a lot of blood.
At this time, Vulture took out a cardiac stimulant and injected it into Kulak. Under the effect of the drug, Kulak slowly opened his eyes, then he suddenly roared and started to punch! This really caught everyone off guard. Fortunately, Vulture dodged quickly, otherwise, his nose would bleed.
Fortunately, Kulak's strength quickly weakened, and he quickly regained consciousness. After seeing Fang Linyan and Black Spear, Kulak immediately pointed to the side weakly,
"Quick … Quick, go save our people, save Jordan."
After hearing that, the goat's face suddenly changed, and he asked,
"What happened!"
Kulak's previous violent punches tore the wound again. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain,
"That bastard Varden has completely gone crazy … He colluded with a group of damn humans and suddenly attacked us! Varden betrayed the centaurs. He used forbidden witchcraft to suck the blood essence of our people and used it as a sacrifice! "
Hearing Kulak's words, Fang Linyan's face suddenly changed drastically.
He immediately asked, "Where is the place where they sacrificed?"
Kulak panted and said,
"Taramok's crystal cave … The polluted aura there is very strong, so it can cover up the bloody smell and the fluctuation of witchcraft to avoid being discovered by Brand Haden."
"Let's go!" Fang Linyan said decisively.
Then he looked at Black Spear who was taking care of Kulak.
"Elder Black Spear, you have to come too. I can guarantee that Kulak is now out of danger. This is the holy land of your centaurs. If we humans rashly enter without your company, we might trigger some taboos."
Black Spear nodded silently. Suddenly, his front hooves softened, and he knelt down.
