Chapter 467 The Truth Behind the Murals

The symbols were oddly shaped, and Su Luoluo glanced at them, feeling that she couldn't understand them.

When the others heard what Xi Yi said, they quickly gathered around.

However, the others reacted similarly to Su Luoluo, looking completely bewildered.

It wasn't until Si Zheng glanced at it that her pupils instantly contracted. "This is...this is astronomy."

Astronomy, and geography too?

When Su Luoluo heard Si Zheng say that, she almost burst out laughing and was about to tease him.

Xi Yi nodded. "That's right, it is indeed astronomy."

He finished speaking and said with some surprise, "I didn't expect you to even recognize this."

"I studied specifically in order to be able to convey my thoughts."

That's really astronomy.

I almost made a fool of myself, thinking the other person was being abstract.

Su Luoluo looked at Si Zheng, then at Xi Yi, and asked with a curious expression, "What is astronomy?"

"It's a script that astronomy uses to communicate with the gods. Legend has it that if you use this script, the gods will hear the shaman's requests and prayers more easily," Si Zheng explained slowly.

So high-end?

Even communication with the gods has its own unique script.

Su Luoluo once again marveled at the extraordinary status of the Celestials in the Beast World Continent.

"What's written on this wall?" Su Luoluo continued to ask.

Si Zheng shook her head. "I don't know. To my shame, I've only learned a few characters here and there, but not all of them. There's very little astronomical knowledge left on the mainland."

"I can only barely make out that the words on this wall are about astronomy; I don't know what they actually say."

“There’s no need to be so self-deprecating. Astronomy is only known to the Xi clan and has never been passed on to outsiders. It’s normal that you don’t know it.” Xi Yi glanced at Si Zheng upon hearing this. It seemed like he was trying to comfort her, but there was a hint of superiority in his words.

Su Luoluo wondered if she had misheard, but Xi Yi spoke with a serious expression.

Okay, the Xi clan might really be different.

She raised her chin and pointed to the wall, saying, "What's written on this wall?"

Xi Yi squatted down and pointed to the wall, saying:
"It says that the eight portraits on the wall depict eight guardian deities, representing eight directions, who together protect their females. If everyone works together and all blood is united, they can protect what they want."

"I thought he'd say something else, maybe give us some clues to open the box, but all he did was introduce himself." Fu Feng pursed his lips after hearing this.

Si Zheng said calmly, "It's normal for murals to depict a person's life and deeds."

"How boring. This place is so well hidden, and we almost died here, but all we got was to see some stories."

"I'm hungry, let's go out quickly!"

Seeing Su Luoluo fall directly from the temple, they worried that the fire would burn her to a crisp, so they immediately jumped down. Unexpectedly, the area below was completely isolated from the temple, and they didn't know what kind of fireproofing measures had been taken. The fire and smoke above did not spread over, and they not only escaped danger but also benefited from avoiding the fire.

Of course, I also found an unopenable box and learned a little story about it.

After enjoying the excitement, you naturally want to go outside.

Luan Ting looked around and saw that the hem of his clothes was billowing in the wind. He said, "There's a breeze here. We can get out of here. There must be a ventilation shaft."

Without any objection, the group followed Luan Ting outside.

After hearing the story, Su Luoluo seemed to be deep in thought.

Before leaving the secret chamber, she glanced back at the eight murals. All the statues looked at her calmly, their faces very gentle.

"What are you looking at, Lolo? Look down!"

Su Luoluo turned her gaze back upon hearing this. In that instant, she glanced down and noticed the shadows on the ground. The shadows of the eight paintings were all clustered together on the ground. She wondered if it was just an illusion.

Su Luoluo wanted to look down one more time, but Fufeng pushed her out.

The light before my eyes changed from darkness to brightness, and I had passed through the secret chamber and arrived outside the temple.

Xiao Ye stretched and said, "It's so cramped in there, it almost broke my back. Without her, how can I give Luo Luo happiness?"

Upon hearing Xiao Ye's lewd remarks, Fu Feng immediately retorted without hesitation: "You can bend your back so easily that it breaks. It seems your back is too fragile."

Upon hearing Fu Feng's words, Xiao Ye instantly became enraged, and the two began exchanging barbs. Seeing the two arguing again, Luan Ting shook his head and said to Su Luoluo, "I'll go check on the temple."

When Fufeng heard the name of the temple, he remembered that his father and grandfather were also inside.

Fu Feng wasn't worried that they wouldn't be able to escape, but since they had finally reached the Lower Realm, he still wanted to see them to prevent them from talking about him.

"Luan Ting, wait a minute, I'll go with you."

Su Luoluo, thinking of Yan Shu, also left.

Seeing Su Luoluo leave, the others naturally followed her.

The temple has collapsed into ruins.

The once magnificent temple is now just a pile of rubble.

When Su Luoluo arrived, there was a crowd gathered in front of the temple, seemingly pulling at someone.

Some people couldn't bear to watch and went to help.

Yan Shu's eyes were red as he pulled Yan Yu along, "Brother, have you found them yet? Luo Luo and Cousin are still inside."

"Don't tug at my sleeve, I'm calculating!"

"Who is my cousin? Do you think we need to worry about that?"

While comforting her, Yan Yu quickly sniffed the smells in the ruins.

Just as Su Luoluo was about to go over and say hello, the two of them teleported to a distance.

She could only walk forward, and just as she was about to call out to them, a group of people surrounded one person, trying to persuade him.

“Brother, why don’t you take a break and let us do it? Your hands are already a bloody mess.”

"Yeah, take a break, brother, we have so many people here!"

"Tell us, what does the person you're looking for look like?"

The man remained silent upon hearing this and continued to dig through the rubble with his bare hands.

Bai Meng stared blankly at the ruins before him, charred black from the collapse and fire, but still quickened his pace, digging through the stones.

Lolo will be alright, she'll be fine inside.

He should have pulled her out then.

Even if she resented him, he would still do it; it was better than losing her life.

Su Luoluo glanced around, and after clearly seeing who was digging through the rubble, her eyes widened, and she immediately ran over: "Bai Meng, stop digging! We're here!"

Upon hearing Su Luoluo's voice, Bai Meng was slightly taken aback, but he didn't stop; he must be hallucinating.

Even at this hour, I can still hear Luo Luo's voice.

"The celestial maiden has arrived!"

"It's a celestial maiden!"

When the crowd saw Su Luoluo, they all made way for her.

Seeing that Bai Meng hadn't stopped, Su Luoluo reached out and pulled him to a stop: "Bai Meng, it's me, we're fine."

Feeling a warm sensation on his hand, Bai Meng finally realized what was happening. Seeing Su Luoluo so close to him, his eyes turned red and his lips trembled slightly: "Luoluo, are you alright?"

Su Luoluo nodded: "I'm fine."

Only then could Bai Meng truly relax.

Presumably, the other beastmen didn't like Bai Meng, and seeing his persistent efforts to dig through the ruins to save them, or rather, to save Luo Luo, they softened a bit.

If they were him, they would do the same.

They walked over, about to say something.

While treating Bai Meng, Su Luoluo looked at the ruins and suddenly understood something.

She looked at the group excitedly and said, "I know! I know how to open the box!"

The beastmen: "???"
