Ignoring Gong Dai's attempts to stop her, GongYimo went forward to take a look. She realized that these people had indeed died very miserably, so she did not look at their faces. Instead, she took out a dagger and poked at the part of their body that was cut open to see the reason why it was cut open.
Seeing GongYimo touch the corpse, Gong Dai could not bear for her to do it, so he took the dagger from her hand and said.
"Royal Sister, what do you want to see? Let me do it. "
His actions made GongYimo feel very warm. She said softly, "I just want to see what he's missing."
Gong Dai flipped open his abdomen. When he was young, GongYimo had drawn a detailed diagram of the human body for him. Later on, in Zhao Prison, he had also experimented on those corpses, so he had a certain understanding of the human body.
"He's missing a stomach."
Although there was only a flashlight, Gong Dai was still very certain. Then he walked to the next corpse and casually flipped through it.
"He doesn't have guts."
GongYimo thought about it. In the end, after a round of examination, she realized that they were missing a stomach, gallbladder, small intestine, large intestine, bladder, and three cavities.
Missing six organs … GongYimo suddenly felt that she was rather bored. Instead of finding a way out, she was actually flipping through the dried corpses left behind by the previous sacrifices … It was just a foolish folklore. Snow Country was already destroyed, what was there to look into.
Then they continued to walk forward. There was another long and narrow corridor, and then they arrived at another stone room.
In the process, the number of corpses on the ground increased, but without exception, all of them had their hearts dug out.
This stone room was the same as the previous one, except that the six stone platforms had turned into five, and the people on the platforms had also taken out something with a knife on their upper body.
GongYimo said, "There's no need to look. The person in the stone room just now was missing six organs. This stone room has five stone platforms, so what's missing must be the five organs … I don't know why they killed these people, and even dug out their hearts … Who!"
As GongYimo was speaking, a small black shadow suddenly jumped under the light of the flashlight! GongYimo said hurriedly, but she couldn't see anything when she looked over. It was really strange!
Seeing that she was nervous, Gong Dai also sank his Qi into his Dantian to sense carefully. There was no third person's aura here.
"Royal Sister, what's wrong?" Gong Dai felt that something was wrong with GongYimo recently. "There's no third person here."
On the way here, he had carefully observed the surroundings. Other than them, there were no other traces of outsiders.
GongYimo also felt that her eyes were playing tricks on her. She pointed at the stone on her waist in annoyance.
"Maybe this damn thing is affecting me. I have to throw it away when I get out!"
Gong Dai felt that it wasn't just that, but they were underground now, so it wasn't appropriate for them to talk about this.
"Then let's talk about it outside."
He patted GongYimo's head comfortingly and pulled her forward. The underground air was circulating, which meant that there must be an exit. He didn't want to stay underground for too long in case of accidents.
After passing through another tunnel, they arrived at another stone room. However, this stone room was different. There were more than twenty people kneeling on the ground! They were all kneeling with their heads lowered and their hands crossed in front of their chests. When they first came in, GongYimo was shocked! She was afraid that when the light shone on them, they would all turn their heads …
"This place is too strange. The temperature is very low, but it shouldn't be to the extent of turning into dried corpses, right?"
Moreover, their clothes were all in good condition. The preservation was done well!
Gong Dai saw that GongYimo was intentionally hiding behind him and couldn't help but smile dotingly.
"Maybe it's because of the black liquid that there's no life here."
No life, no plants, no animals, not even microbes?
GongYimo nodded. However, looking at the pile of dried corpses on the ground with their backs facing them, she still couldn't accept it.
"What are they doing?"
Gong Dai saw that there was an exquisitely carved stone seat in front of them. In front of the stone seat was a large cauldron!
And these people seemed to be devoutly welcoming someone, maintaining their kneeling posture even after death.
Gong Jue gently pulled her by the hand and led her to the stone seat.
When they passed by the large cauldron, GongYimo glanced at it and almost vomited. She was wondering where the hearts that were dug out went. She didn't expect that they were all soaked in here! In the black viscous water, the hearts didn't dry up. That was amazing!
From the position of the stone seat, they could see the faces of the dried corpses. Although it wasn't very clear, they didn't seem to be struggling. All of them had their heads lowered and looked at the ground, as if they were willing to die. Without exception, all of them had sacrificed their hearts.
At this moment, GongYimo discovered something and exclaimed, "Gong Dai, there are words behind the stone seat!"
Gong Dai walked over to take a look and discovered that the words were unique to the Snow Country. Fortunately, Gong Dai had a photographic memory and actually knew what was written here.
"So this is really the place where the Snow Country sacrificed …" Gong Dai saw something and narrowed his eyes, but he still explained in a soft voice.
"When the Snow Country was destroyed, the remaining Snow Clan people harbored hatred in their hearts, so they wanted to use the secret method of reincarnation to summon the evil spirit and slaughter the country and the world."
GongYimo couldn't help but frown when she heard this.
"These people are really … I don't understand their thoughts. Could it be that they killed so many people for such a nonexistent matter? Slaughter the country and the world … their imagination is quite rich. They don't want others to have a good life because they don't want others to have a good life? "
Gong Dai did not speak. His fingertips moved down, wiping away the dust, and continued to look at the words behind and said softly.
"What you think is a nonexistent matter, these remaining Snow Country people have been preparing for nearly four years. The people who died were not all from the Snow Clan. At least in the corridor just now, those people were selected by a secret method as living sacrifices. Only the people in this stone room are the ones that the Snow Clan is willing to sacrifice."
GongYimo was even more depressed. "The country has been destroyed for four years. In such a long time, instead of thinking about being down-to-earth and good people, they killed so many people to complete a meaningless sacrifice. So, the destruction of the Snow Country is not without reason."
In her view, this was simply a lack of intelligence … but counting the time, so much time had passed. It had nothing to do with her!
"Let's go. Anyway, there are no treasures here. Let's get out of here quickly. It's too depressing to stay here."
Gong Dai nodded and was ready to take her away. But at this time, the flashlight swept across, GongYimo's expression suddenly became serious!
This time, she was sure that she was not hallucinating!
"Gong Dai …" GongYimo pointed at the group of corpses kneeling on the ground and said slowly and seriously, "Look at that person. When we came in, everyone was kneeling with their heads down. Why … is he raising his head?"
Gong Dai also remembered this, so he pulled out his sword and said to GongYimo, "Don't be afraid, let's continue!"
"En!" GongYimo frowned and looked at the corpse that raised his head. Because it was just a quick glance, she did not see anything at the back of his head. It was black and very strange.
