Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 60 The Altar of Blood-red Patterns

On the hills before, Xu Xin had seen that the statues on these stone pillars had changed.

Is it because the needs of those "gods" are changing?

Xu Xin took his hand off the stone pillar.

He felt that the stone pillar was getting hot, but it didn't seem to be because of the sunlight, because Xu Xin's hand was touching the backlit side of the stone pillar, which was not exposed to the sun.

He took a few steps back and looked at the stone pillar in front of him with some vigilance.

"Huh?" Coco on the shoulder was a little puzzled, but it didn't feel any danger.

Xu Xin looked at Yin Wang beside him, and found that Yin Wang's body was trembling.

"What's the matter, Silver King, are you scared?"

"Aww..." Yin Wang moaned weakly, his voice trembling a little.

Xu Xin patted Silver King's head: "Go outside the altar first."

"Aww!" The Silver King howled after receiving the order, and jumped three or four meters directly to the outside of the altar.

Yin Wang's strong reaction made Xu Xin feel a little panicked.

Xu Xin glanced at Ke Ke on her shoulder: "Aren't you afraid of Ke Ke?"

"Oh." Coco shook his head.

Xu Xin lowered her head in thought.

This is an altar for sacrificing wild animals, and there is a statue of a wolf on one of the stone pillars. From this point of view, the Silver King is actually a kind of sacrifice, so it is no wonder that it is so scared.

Turning to look at the stone table in the center of the altar, Xu Xin decided to go to the stone table to have a look.

Xu Xin walked quickly to the stone table. He was always paying attention to the changes on the map, but nothing dangerous happened during the period, and no monsters suddenly emerged from the ground. He walked over safely.

The stone table was about half a meter high, and it was as big as a bed, which could accommodate several wild boars.

Xu Xin reached out to touch the stone table. Unlike the pillars, the stone table was still extremely cold even under the sun, like ice, which made Xu Xin's hands shrank a little.

[Altar Table (Blue): If you make enough sacrifices, you will get the attention of the "gods". 】

It's the "God" in quotation marks again. What does this gaze mean?

Xu Xin looked at the statues on the surrounding stone pillars, weighed the pros and cons, and finally decided to sacrifice according to the requirements of the "gods".

He didn't know what this so-called "god" was, but since it was a sacrifice, he would naturally get something. Since ancient times, the purpose of offering sacrifices is to ask for something from the gods, and it is the same for this altar.

And the current task is to hunt, just enough to complete the hunting activities while offering sacrifices to the altar.

The four statues are wild boar, wolf, wild cat and rabbit, and Xu Xin hunted and killed wild boars and many hares on the way here, but unfortunately, they have been decomposed by him.

After thinking about it, Xu Xin took out more than ten kilograms of hare meat obtained by decomposing those hares from his backpack, and put them on the altar.

I don’t know if it’s feasible if it’s just hare meat.

Suddenly, Xu Xin felt that the temperature in front of him had dropped, and the stone table exuded a slight coolness. He subconsciously took a step back and clenched the stone spear in his hand.

There was a change in the stone table, causing Xu Xin's eyelids to twitch, and he watched everything that happened in front of him without blinking.

Under Xu Xin's gaze, the blood-red pattern on the side of the stone table suddenly became more vivid, and the blood-red pattern that was only on the side became active and spread towards the table.

"Hey!" Ke Ke was taken aback, grabbed Xu Xin's shoulder and hid behind him, only showing a small head to look at the altar table.

The speed of the spread of the blood-red pattern was not fast, but there were many patterns, like countless blood-shot insects crawling from all sides of the table to the rabbit meat piled high in the middle of the table, and then, an amazing scene happened.

The blood-red patterns on the table actually crawled directly onto the rabbit meat!

These blood streaks are actually alive!

Blood-red patterns were slowly covering the rabbit meat. Under Xu Xin's gaze, more than ten kilograms of rabbit meat was completely dyed bloody by the blood-red patterns. shrinking.

In the end, all the rabbit meat disappeared, and the patterns on the rabbit meat also fell on the table, scattered around, returned to the carved patterns on the side, and dimmed.

During this process, Xu Xin didn't dare to show his anger, but only held the stone spear in his hand. He wanted to stab the blood-red pattern on the table more than once, but in the end reason overcame the impulse.

The abnormality on the stone table has stopped, and the temperature around Xu Xin has gradually risen under the sunlight.

"What the hell is this!" Xu Xin felt that this thing was too weird.

He waited for a long while, but the sacrificial table just swallowed his rabbit meat, and nothing else happened at all.

"What's the matter? Could it be that there are not enough sacrifices?" Xu Xin remembered that it said "enough sacrifices" in the introduction.

"Hey!" Ke Ke tugged at the leather armor on Xu Xin's body.

Following the direction Ke Ke pointed, Xu Xin looked at the bottom of the stone pillar carved with rabbits.

He suddenly discovered that the bottom of the ten-meter-high stone pillar covered with patterns had been dyed blood red for a few centimeters!

"What does this mean? Is the progress of the sacrifice?" Xu Xin looked at the surrounding stone pillars, and found that only the stone pillar below the hare statue was stained a few centimeters red with blood.

"Does this mean that you want me to dye these four pillars red?" Xu Xin's eyelids twitched. Red a few centimeters.

Like dyeing the entire ten-meter-high pillar red, it would take too much rabbit meat!

This is just a pillar.

No, it shouldn't be that much. What he put on it was only rabbit meat, not the whole rabbit, if it was a whole rabbit...

etc!

Xu Xin suddenly felt that these statues had other meanings.

Seeing these statues for the first time, Xu Xin felt that these statues were very exaggerated, because a certain part of the beast statues had been magnified to an outrageous level.

The tusks of the wild boar statue are huge and curved, longer than the whole pig's body. Does this mean that the tusks on the wild boar are the most suitable sacrifices?

Xu Xin walked in front of the stone pillar of the rabbit statue, and a gust of heat rushed towards her face.

This pillar is the opposite of the sacrificial table, and it actually emits heat.

This statue is also very exaggerated. The original cute rabbit looks very hideous on the statue. The rabbit's eyes are wide open, and the rabbit's teeth are bared, as if looking up and screaming at the sky. The rabbit ears that should be the cutest on the two rabbits are here The time seems to be two sharp swords, hanging straight on the rabbit's back, longer than the body.

"Rabbit ears? Are the special parts on the rabbit statue rabbit ears?"

Xu Xin looked at the statues of the wolf and the cat again. The exaggerated part of the wolf is the wolf teeth, which are even more exaggerated than the saber-toothed tiger, almost piercing his feet; while the cat is the sharp claws of the front paws. The long claws of the claw wrapped around one side of the stone pillar, and even pierced directly into the body of the stone pillar.

"The pig's fangs, the rabbit's ears, the wolf's fangs, and the cat's claws. These parts are the parts of the statue that look very exaggerated. Could it be that these parts are the real sacrifices?" Xu Xin self-mumbling.

But he has decomposed these four kinds of animals, and has not obtained the materials of these parts.

"Is it cut with a normal knife, or put the whole thing on?"

Xu Xin felt that something was wrong. He felt that there must be something he hadn't found, so he went around the sacrificial table and started looking for it himself.

Sure enough, under the edge of the table in the middle of the sacrificial table, there was a pattern that was quite out of place. Xu Xin poked it with a stone spear and pressed that piece down. Withdrawing the stone spear, the sunken part popped out immediately, like a stone drawer.

Lying in the drawer was a small knife with a pitch-black body and a blood-red blade.

Xu Xin hesitated for a moment, but reached out to pick up the knife.

[Altar Knife (Blue): The knife needed to cut the sacrificial materials, remember to put it back in the altar after use, otherwise the "gods" will be angry! 】

This is it! Sure enough, his conjecture was correct!
