Doomsday Begins with a Nightmare

Vol 2 Chapter 645: To knock or not to knock

This kind of thing, the bell, was originally a percussion instrument, as the so-called fair lady, bell and drum music. Later, from musical instruments, it became a bell in temples, used for timekeeping, alarming, etc. The word morning bell and evening drum came from that time.

But obviously, the species hanging in front of Lin Mo and Liu Jia at the moment is not for the bells and drums of the fair lady, nor for the morning and evening drums, but for other purposes.

It was the first time that Lin Mo met, but Liu Jia had seen him every day for the past five years, so he didn't have as many messy thoughts as Lin Mo.

She walked over, looked at it, and nodded.

"This is it, this is the ghost clock, who made it here?"

After saying that, I started to search around.

Maybe it was because he thought there were some ghosts hiding around.

Lin Mo glanced at Liu Jia secretly, then walked to the ghost clock and whispered, "Xiaoyu, let's see what's going on with this clock."

As soon as the words fell, a small white hand stretched out from Lin Mo's sleeve, gently pressed it against the ghost clock, and quickly retracted it. .

No movement.

Lin Mo knew that Xiaoyu didn't detect a single reason. If there was, she would give a hint. If there was no hint, she couldn't see it.

Because it was the first time I saw a ghost clock, Lin Mo was very curious.

While Liu Jia was investigating the surroundings, Lin Mo probed the ghost clock itself.

Touched, cold, hard.

There is a strong sense of heaviness.

There are lines on the bell body, which are complex and difficult to understand, like some kind of mysterious symbol, representing an unknown meaning.

After a circle, he found nothing, Lin Mo then crouched down and got under the ghost clock.

Looking up from this angle, it was like a dark metal dome, swaying the brick with a hammer, Lin Mo looked inside.

Under normal circumstances, there is nothing inside the clock, after all, it is not an important area.

But ghost clocks are different.

There are complex textures on the outside, like words.

Inside, there are all kinds of patterns, including mountains and lakes, things that look like people, and the sun, moon and stars. From bottom to top, there is a ring about a foot high, a total of nine rings are superimposed, and each ring uses that A carving describes an event.

Pictures are a form of expression that transcends language and words. Even if people from different countries and races look at the same picture, they can see the specific meaning from it.

This is why pictures can be called works of art.

Lin Mo carefully studied the nine layers of carvings, which clearly recorded a series of events.

The bottom is the first one, and the top is the last one.

The first is very ordinary and the most peaceful of the nine ring engravings. There are mountains and rivers above, people can be seen hunting, farming, and there are some things like ancient beasts, but there is no strange feeling.

This description is a picture of people's life in ancient times.

But in the second picture, the style of the painting is a bit wrong.

Compared with the animal skin suits of the people in the first picture, the people in the second picture are already wearing robes, which is obviously due to cultural and technological progress.

There are military conquests on it, and there are people who seem to be wearing the emperor's clothes, offering sacrifices to the sky, the river, and the mountains.

It's more of a killing, one painting, there are corpses everywhere, and the bones are like a forest.

Lin Mo understood, fear, killing, suspicion, extreme, anger, desire, these dark sides appeared with the progress of human society.

This is the dark side of man.

The more developed and stronger human society is, the bigger and stronger this dark side will be.

It's like a mirror, reflecting the opposite side.

Although there is no text on it, Lin Mo can feel the meaning of the sculptor, and it is profound. It is no exaggeration to say that it is only the second picture, and Lin Mo is deeply attracted.

"It feels like the birth of the dark side." Lin Mo noticed that in the second pattern, there was a pattern of yin and yang, which blended with each other.

Yin and Yang, one is black and the other is white.

What it expresses is that the dark side has always been there, which is also the foundation of many thoughts of the ancients.

Next is the third picture.

Obviously, the civilization of the people above has improved again. With carriages and copper smelting technology, there are also more killings. Naturally, the dark side of terror is getting bigger and bigger.

There is a picture here that impressed Lin Mo deeply.

There was a man kneeling on the ground, holding his head in his hands, as if he was roaring in pain. Above him, a phantom appeared, which contained all kinds of frightening things.

Ferocious ghosts represent fear; corpses and rotting bones represent death.

Lin Mo watched for a while before he understood.

"The smarter this person is, the more they will have these dark sides. In comparison, those people in ancient times are happier. They are simple-minded and have the advantage of being simple-minded. At least, they will not think blindly. It is the so-called full and warm thinking* *, I see, thinking about not only those desires, but more terrifying things."

Lin Mo felt what the other party wanted to express from the creator of the relief.

That is the birth of 'weird'.

Simply put, there are no ghosts in the world, and if there are people, there will be ghosts!

At the end of the third picture, Lin Mo saw such a scene. After some people fell asleep, they would be taken advantage of by those fears and die.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Mo looked at the fourth picture.

Not to mention, this feeling is the same as chasing more series, addicting, after watching one episode, I want to watch the next one. The author of this carving also knows the routine, and the resolution of each picture is suspenseful and tempting.

"It's really not a thing." Lin Mo scolded.

In Lin Mo's view, the fourth picture is the most brilliant one.

If the former one represents disaster, then the fourth picture seems to represent a kind of balance and a solution.

The whole picture is a scene.

Smelting bronze!

It can be seen that countless people were mining ore and smelting copper water under the orders of the ruler at that time, and Lin Mo frowned at one scene.

That is, during the smelting process, many people were thrown into the fire.

Others were thrown into the rolling copper water.

Lin Mo seems to have heard of a similar situation somewhere.

By the way, it is said that there was a pair of famous swords in ancient times. It was because rare metals could not be fused during the smelting process. At the last moment, the swordsmith's wife sacrificed herself to the sword and jumped into it. Only then did the refining succeed. The ancient famous sword is said to have spirituality.

It is estimated that the tradition of martyrdom started from this fourth painting.

In the end, the copper water mixed with countless lives was cast into bronze doors of different sizes.

Seeing this, Lin Mo finally understood the origin of those terrifying bronze doors.

It turned out that these were indeed made by humans themselves.

It seems that it is to suppress those terrifying dark sides, but can these thinking things be suppressed?

Logically it doesn't work.

But the actual situation seems to have really succeeded, because as far as Lin Mo knows, behind every copper door known so far, there is something terrifying.

Nine times out of ten, this nightmare crisis was caused by the opening of the bronze door.

And from the fifth picture, it seems that the original peace has been restored. The copper gate is buried and hidden deep underground, and the people on the ground are singing and laughing.

In the sixth picture, it can be seen that the copper doors buried in the ground began to permeate the black material, which may be due to some natural disasters such as earthquakes, and a few copper doors have reappeared.

The world is weird again.

But compared to the horror-like hell-like scenes in the previous pictures, it is obviously much better, and only a few people are affected, and the exposed copper doors are also accepted by some people, or they are reburied and sealed under the temple. Day and night chanting soothes and purifies.

It's a balance.

Weird and terrifying, the terrifying darkness still exists, but it seems that the scale is not large, and some people guide, either ban or suppress, in short, a balanced relationship has been reached.

At this moment, Lin Mo was not in a hurry to look at the seventh picture.

He looked at it from the first picture, scratched it again, and found a very important thing.

In all the pictures, there seems to be a type of person.

There is no specific name for this type of people, and Lin Mo will call them wise men or sages.

The dark side of terror was born from them in the first place.

After that, they instructed those in power to smelt the copper gates, and then instructed people to bury them again or seal them into temples, all of which were also related to these wise men.

Why do you say that?

After all, the people depicted above have similar shapes, so how did Lin Mo see that they were of a similar type?

It's not that Lin Mo is gifted and savvy, it's mainly because this type of person has an eye painted on his head.

Others have no eyes, only the outline of a human figure, or even a sketch of a 'person'.

But the type of people that Lin Mo said was different. Even in the case of sketches, there would be an eye on his head.

The style of the eyes is quite uniform, it is very simple, like a fish with its tail removed, with a pupil composed of yin and yang hooks in the middle.

Because there are similar people on the first floor of the painting, it will attract Lin Mo's attention.

Next, continue to look up. In the seventh-layer picture, there are also such 'wise men', they seem to already know how to use the dark power in the copper door.

Although there are still some terrible things in the seventh picture, it is generally harmonious.

But the eighth picture is different.

The above description is that it seems that there is a problem among the 'wise men', and some of them have become brutal, even attacking each other, and it has spread and affected ordinary people, so a large-scale war broke out.

It was like a doomsday scene.

And the last one.

This pair is at the top of the inner wall of the ghost clock and has the smallest area. Fortunately, the content depicted on it is also very small.

There is only one event.

That is a certain 'wise man', who seems to have dug out a copper door, smelted it again, and cast it into a black bell.

The story ends here.

Lin Mo watched from the beginning to the end, babbled, there was an unfinished feeling.

Obviously, the 'bell' depicted in the last picture is probably the ghost clock that Lin Mo saw at the moment. If you look at it this way, then the 'wise man' who smelted a certain copper door and cast the bell is the ghost clock in the ghost town. The legendary 'Mr. Chunfeng'.

This is also in line with Lin Mo's expectations for this legendary figure.

But why did the other party smelt the copper door into a bell?

Lin Mo couldn't understand.

At this moment, Liu Jia, who was investigating around, ran back without finding anything. Seeing that Lin Mo had actually drilled into the ghost clock, he was also very curious and also drilled in.

Here, it is very good for one person to stay alone, and the two of them are a little crowded.

Lin Mo still has no memory of Liu Jia, so he was a little embarrassed to be so close at the moment, but Liu Jia didn't feel embarrassed at all. Seeing that Lin Mo seemed to be avoiding her, he complained that you and that little Saner were close to each other. You don't feel uncomfortable when you are together, why is it uncomfortable when you are with me?

Lin Mo was speechless.

"Then I'll hold you?" He said angrily.

"Do you dare?" Liu Jia was obviously provoking him.

"Look at me!" Lin Mo hugged him and hugged him tightly. The big men are still afraid of a little girl? What a joke, come, get it right, who's afraid of who.

But honestly, it feels really good.

Liu Jia died five years ago. At that time, she was a female student in the third year of high school, and now she is still the same. At this moment, Lin Mo feels like an old cow eating tender grass.

Kind of cool.

Liu Jia was not used to it at all.

She leaned against Lin Mo naturally, looked up at the picture on the inner wall, and was stunned.

After Lin Mo found out, he asked her if you didn't know there were paintings here?

Liu Jia shook her head and said she didn't know.

"Didn't you stay with this ghost clock for five years, see you every day, and you haven't sneaked in once to see it?"

"No, I am responsible for ringing the bell, not for maintenance and oiling, so why should I come in and see?" Liu Jia said confidently.

But there's nothing wrong with what people say.

People just ring the bell, and after it rings, they walk away and stay outside to see, that is, a person like himself has strange thoughts, so he will sneak in.

Liu Jia then re-read the ninth-story comic strip on the inner wall from the beginning, and Lin Mo followed it again, and was responsible for explaining it next to him. He communicated with Liu Jia's understanding and discussed with each other.

Both agreed that strange things have existed since ancient times.

And this kind of weirdness is reflected in the spiritual realm, and dreams are a kind of spiritual realm.

In addition, the ancients did research on this, and the person who did the research was the 'wise man'.

Of course, the wise man was called Lin Mo, and Liu Jia gave him another name.

'Big Eyed Monster'.

Not to mention, there is nothing wrong with using the big-eyed monster as a metaphor, because all the wise men, in the pictures, are ordinary 'human'-shaped outlines with an extra large eye.

Taking a quick glance, it looks a bit like a character in the cartoon "Monster Company" in Baiying Country, big-eyed boy!

So Liu Jia gave him the nickname "Big Eyed Monster", which is not a problem at all.

Liu Jia also saw that Mr. Chunfeng who founded the ghost town should be the Big-Eyed Monster, at least one of the Big-Eyed Monsters.

Lin Mo asked her if you had seen Mr. Chunfeng.

"I've heard of him, but I haven't seen him. He has disappeared for hundreds of years. Where can I meet him?" Liu Jia raised his hand and touched the most visited painting at this time.

"Bronze door, cast into a bell, why is this?"

Lin Mo also wanted to know about her question.

Now this situation is like a final exam. Two scumbags who have slept for a semester are sitting together and discussing how to answer the paper.

"Then, do you want to ring the bell?" Lin Mo asked at this time.

From the time he entered the ghost pavilion to the present, the time has not been short, and before that, the bell has not been ringed for a day. According to Chang Zhou and the others, if the bell is not ringed for two consecutive days, there will definitely be a big mess.

"Knock, but I don't know if the bell can be heard, and there is no bell wood." At this time, Liu Jia touched something **** his waist.

"Let me use this thing!"

"Row!"

Liu Jia was talking about a brick hammer.

A bell-ringing wood is a piece of wood that is tied to the side and also suspended in the air, and is specially used for ringing bells.

There's none here, so to ring the bell, you'll have to replace it with something else.

A brick hammer is fine.

After Liu Jia took it from Lin Mo, the two of them got out together. She waved her arm and said it was a good thing.

Of course I know Lin Mo's face is good, but I still use the expression you said.

The brick hammer is his exclusive weapon. Who knows how powerful it is. The most important thing is that it fits Lin Mo's character.

It's his favorite anyway.

Looking at it now, Liu Jia actually likes it a lot.

After shaking it twice, Liu Jia walked towards the ghost clock.

Walking closer, after thinking for a while, he turned his head and asked Lin Mo, "You said, if you ring this bell, there will be no problem, right?"

In fact, Lin Mo was also quite worried.

"Otherwise, don't knock?" He gave a more pertinent suggestion, and also echoed Lin Mo's character. He has always been as stable as an old dog.

"No, if you don't knock, the ghosts in the ghost pavilion will riot. In all likelihood, they will have to rush out, and the ghost town will also suffer." Liu Jia was worried.

"That's true, then knock." Lin Mo felt that it was a grass on the wall, and the wind was blowing, so he fell to the other side.

Liu Jiabai glanced at Lin Mo.

"What if there is a bigger basket!"

"Then, don't knock!"

Liu Jia was so angry that she didn't want to ring the bell now, but wanted to ring you.

Lin Mo smiled awkwardly: "This is a real problem. If you don't knock, there will definitely be an accident; if you knock, there may be an accident, and if something happens horizontally and vertically, then I can't make any suggestions."

Liu Jia thought about it, she had lived in the garden in front of Your Excellency Ghost for five years.

Five years.

How did she get here?

This is definitely an indelible growth experience for a female student who used to be a third-year high school student.

It can be said that Liu Jia's current state of mind is also very calm, and it is definitely not comparable to those young girls outside.

Just like what Lin Mo said, if you don't knock, something will happen, but if you knock, something may happen. Then, definitely and possible, of course, choose the latter.

But Liu Jia also knows that the former incident is at least predictable, but once the latter incident occurs, it is unknown. It may be a small incident that can be ignored, or it may be a big incident that will shock the world.

So after weighing one or two, Liu Jia thought about it clearly.

knock!

She is not an indecisive person either. She stood in front of the ghost clock and gave Lin Mo a look.

Lin Mo understands, and is also eagerly waiting.

This is to be afraid that if something goes wrong, you can deal with it in advance, so that you will not panic at that time.

The next moment, Liu Jia swung the brick hammer, the hammer head with a raging flame, directly knocked on this ghost clock hidden in the mirror world.

Just heard a click.

Accompanied by the terrifying sound of the bell, it was like countless pieces of glass were shattering.

Lin Mo immediately covered his ears.

This voice is a bit high.

Liu Jia also frowned and covered her ears. She was the closest, and the sound made her feel dry.

When Lin Mo saw this situation, he knew something was wrong.

Because Liu Jia has been ringing the bell for five years, if the movement is so loud and the sound is so harsh, it is impossible for her not to know, and to prevent it in advance.

She was stunned by the shock, which means that this time the bell was ringing, there might have been an unforeseen accident.

Moreover, how can there be the sound of glass breaking?

Just wondering.

Lin Mo suddenly saw the slanted-headed female ghost in a red robe that he had seen before.

The female ghost seems to have come out of the phantom of the shattered glass fragments around.

At this moment, he rushed towards Liu Jia quickly.

Lin Mo hurriedly sounded a warning.

But he found that when he was talking, there was no sound.

Not silent.

It was the sound that seemed to be blocked by the vibration of the still ringing bell, and could not spread at all. The sound of the bell seemed to crack the air, turning it into a separate space, isolating everything, including the sound.

Now Lin Mo is in a hurry.

Liu Jia seemed to be ignorant of the attack behind him, and the female ghost in red robe with her head tilted didn't seem to be a good person. Even if Liu Jia was very powerful, she was afraid of being at a disadvantage.

It's useless for Lin Mo to be in a hurry.

The female ghost with the head tilted has already rushed over at this time.

But the next moment, a pair of scissors came out of nowhere and stabbed into the female ghost's stomach at once, and then the female ghost trembled like a cramp.

Finally, the scissors broke through the back of its head, and came out with a sticky, unidentified liquid.

Getting headshot by scissors must feel very sour.

Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Jia deserves to be a ghost who can ring the bell in the ghost pavilion. In addition to the taboo that can force others to tell stories, his body strength is also very strong.

Guarding the ghost pavilion alone and ringing the bell for five years, Liu Jia is not an easy woman.

I just don't know why she is staying here.

It seems that no one is restricting her, why doesn't she leave?

With her ability, apart from the terrifying soldiers and ghosts guarding the gates of the ghost town, even the ghost officers of the ghost town government can't do anything about her.

Then she can leave the ghost town, go back to it, find her parents, and find her friends.

Or find yourself.

Then why didn't he leave? Lin Mo hasn't figured this out yet.

The sound of the ghost bell began to fade.

I used to hear people say that the bells sounded melodious and continued around the beam for three days. Lin Mo used to think that this was an exaggerated description~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Now I feel that this is really not an exaggeration.

The sound of the bell seemed to be there all the time, and the shaking people's brains ached.

Lin Mo was in pain, Liu Jia was in pain, and she was covering her head. After all, she was the closest and the most affected.

As a result, Lin Mo saw another shocking scene at this moment.

The female ghost whose head was shot by scissors on the ground unexpectedly stood up again.

Lin Mo hurried over there.

It was too late just now, this time it should be almost the same.

As a result, the female ghost grabbed Liu Jia's shoulder, and at the same time, Lin Mo restrained the other's crooked neck from behind.

The curse hit him all over the place.

Among them, the burning curse played the biggest role. It is also possible that the female ghost was afraid of this and screamed and was burned to fly ashes.
