Chapter 167 - Orcs

. "Where is its specific location?" Tianxiang took a breath of air conditioning and asked in surprise, "It's really unbelievable that they actually have a city? This is really unexpected."

"Strictly speaking, it can no longer be considered a city. At most, it is just an abandoned settlement." When he said this, Tianrou couldn't help but sigh softly: "As for its location, you are actually not unfamiliar with it. It is about ten kilometers outside the Xidu City. Haha! Do you still have any image for that place?" "Ten kilometers outside the Xidu City...I am not unfamiliar with it?" Tian Xiang frowned slightly and thought for a while, and suddenly realized it, "You mean, the crypt where we once lived?"

Tianrou smiled and said, "That's right! It's right there. To be precise, it should be near the crypt." "How is this possible?" Tianxiang asked with a puzzled look: "It turned out to be the ruins of an ancient city. We have lived there for a long enough time, but why have we never discovered any human-like city there?"

"There is certainly something, but we have never noticed it before. Because it is right around us, right around us."

"How is this possible? You're probably wrong?" Tianxiang remembered very clearly that the crypt where he and his sister were originally a ruin in Xi'an, an ancient human city. The city where people-like people lived was hidden in it. In this way, he didn't believe it at all. You know, he knew the terrain nearby than anyone else. Not to mention human-like people, even the number of insects was small. This is the most fundamental reason why the so-called sister and her sister were hungry but could not find any food.

"Absolutely not." Tianrou looked at him very calmly: "Their settlements are not far from our residence at that time, and are even only a few meters away." "This is impossible." Tianxiang blurted out without thinking: "What a joke, that crypt is an air-raid shelter left by ancient humans. I don't know how many times I have explored all the surrounding areas, and I have never found any city you mentioned. I have never found any possibility of human beings. If you said that the land was true, I'm afraid we would not have lived today. We have been given a long time ago..."

"You are right." Tian Rou suddenly spoke and interrupted him: "But there is a place you must have never searched! There is absolutely no!" "Where?"

"Underground! Below the crypt!"

Hearing this, a confused color suddenly appeared in Tianxiang's eyes, and he only heard him muttering to himself: "Underground? Are you saying... they live underground and hide under us?" "That's true." Tianrou nodded heavily: "In fact, when I heard this news, my reaction was exactly the same as you. I really couldn't imagine that in such a deep underground, there were other living creatures other than insects continuing to survive. Therefore, I didn't have time to notify you, so I rushed to Xidu alone and asked the city managers there to give me more help. Then, an investigation was launched into the neighborhood immediately."

"What have you found?" Tianxiang's interest in this matter is getting stronger and stronger. "A city." Tianrou's voice is not loud, but it is enough to make the listener's heart feel strongly shocked.

"So, No. 11 and those humanoids, everything they say is true?"

"Not exactly.: Sweetheart replied word by word: "In fact, it is just a group residence that was abandoned hundreds of years ago. You should be very clear about what is under the crypt..." "Below the crypt?" Tianxiang frowned and thought for a long time, and suddenly jumped up as if he was suddenly enlightened: "Are you referring to... those ancient honest groundwater discharge systems?"

"That's right! It's the sewer of the ancient Xi'an city." Tianrou smiled faintly: "It's hard to imagine! Humanoids actually regard it as their settlement. And they have always lived there... "No!" Suddenly, Tianxiang seemed to think of something and asked repeatedly: "According to No. 11, humanoids have existed for more than 500,000 years. However, in ancient Xi'an, it has only been about a thousand years since it was recorded. What's more, the city's groundwater discharge system was usually built six or seven hundred years ago. But you said that they still survive there until now... This doesn't make sense in time?"

"Haha! You remembered it wrong? From beginning to end, I never said anything about finding a humanoid there. What I said was just finding a humanoid settlement there. Didn't it?" Tianrou's eyes flashed with a cunning and provocative smile. "House?" Tianxiang couldn't help but be stunned: "What do you mean...is there empty? No humanoid exists?"

Tianrou nodded affirmatively. "What's going on?" Tianxiang grabbed his hair in confusion and asked in confusion: "You said there was a tiring city there... but you couldn't find any survivors... and said that it was a very important holy land for humans... This... is illogical?" "The fact is that after digging the ground, in an area of ​​only a few hundred square meters, we found a large number of objects carved with this statue, many living tools, hundreds of human-like bones, and many stone carvings carved on the surrounding panel walls... and this thing."

As he said that, Tianrou lowered her head and untied a beautiful necklace from her smooth neck. She unscrewed the round pendant and took out a small square object. Tianxiang turned into this mysterious object from her sister's hand and looked at it carefully for a long time. The application on her face gradually became a little dazed and confused from the initial curiosity... Finally, her muscles began to tremble and her body was shaking. The brilliance in her eyes also became sharp and nervous...

"This...is this thing...is it true?" He slowly raised his head and asked his sister tremblingly. Tianrou gave a certain affirmative statement helplessly. "This is impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Tianxiang murmured, as if he was finished, "How could there be such a thing... Could it be that what those mutant humans said are true? Could it be that they have really lived on the earth for hundreds of thousands of years?" "I don't know... But from the things recorded here, it should be true." Tianrou replied helplessly: "I guess that it should be the gathering point where humans once gathered.

.I don't know why they lived there for a long time until everyone died completely. I really don't know how they lived there from the eyes of ancient people... If it weren't for all the coincidences, I'm afraid there wouldn't be discovered there at all. In fact... Maybe even those smart ancient humans have not discovered it. In fact, humanoids have been living by their side since history has been recorded in history?" It was a square pendant made of gold. There was a beautiful and exquisite rose on it. It looked like it was made of pure handmade. Judging from the craftsmanship level, it was quite perfect.

Tianxiang tried hard to suppress the horror in his heart, took a deep breath, and asked in a calm tone as possible: "Why do you say that?" "What is the biggest characteristic of humanoids? The ordinary humanoid I am talking about is not the kind of mutated variety." Tianrou did not answer his question positively, but first gave another question.

"If you want to talk about characteristics... of course it is a beast-headed human body." Tianxiang thought for a while and replied.

"So. Among the ancient history books you have read, who have such characteristics?" Tian Rou continued to ask. "What races? It seems that many..." Although such questions are a bit inexplicable, Tian Xiang still thought about it seriously.

“Be more specific.”

"Well! From ancient times, there is a legend of Anubis, a hammer tomb tomb in Egypt in Africa. There is also a record of Minotaus, a tauren in Greek legend. Among the Indians in ancient America, there are also sayings about bears and leopards. Even the "Shan Hai Jing" in China has many records of beast-headed people..."

ps: In the first paragraph, the "ground" in "this place problem" should be changed to "the"

In the sixth paragraph, the "land" in the "Leopard Man's Land" should also be changed to "" personal opinions for reference only! "Do you think there is no connection between this?"

"Related?" Tianxiang couldn't help frowning: "Your consciousness is..." "According to humans, they have lived on the earth for hundreds of thousands of years. So, from the accumulated knowledge and level of civilization, they must be much richer than humans. According to the records of human society, Egypt, Greece, and China are the birthplaces of civilizations in the history of human beings on Earth. Correspondingly, legends about beast-headed people are also the most common in these countries. Especially in ancient Egypt, the god of the wolf-headed people tomb, Anubis, was the god of the wolf-headed people tomb.

, Birdhead Toto, Sphinx Sphinx... These beastheads were in the godly position in the minds of ancient Egyptians at that time. Not only did they occupy all the documents and murals, it is said that there was an extremely huge sphinx carved out of stone near Cairo, the capital of ancient Egypt. "Your consciousness is... humanoid, and once helped ancient humans... and even was regarded as the object of worship by them?" Tian Xiang really couldn't believe this

The same theory. After all, in his mind, this beast-headed man is simply the embodiment of brutal bloodthirsty. "It is completely possible." Tianrou replied affirmatively: "Think about it, 500,000 years is enough for too many things to happen. In contrast, humans who only have thousands of years of civilization history will inevitably worship humanoids who have entered civilization. After all, in order to survive, to reproduce, and to better fight against nature, humans will definitely use all means to obtain the various things they want from humanoids.

In order to achieve this goal, ancient humans even refused to exchange their lives for it. As for Anubis, this wolf-headed monster was regarded by them as the most mysterious death guide. It can be imagined that the fear and respect of humanoids at that time had reached a certain level." At this time, Tianxiang suddenly had a very strange thought in his heart. He suddenly discovered that all the beast-headed people recorded in ancient classics were all "gods" in human legends.

"I don't know how they sneaked into human society and gained recognition. However, it seems terrible to think about it. All kinds of animals that should have been regarded as human food have become objects of worship. They also have an extremely high status... This kind of thing. If it were you now, would you do this?" "No, of course not." Tianxiang blurted out his answer without even thinking about it.

"For things that you have no way to know, humans can only express their inner fear in their own way. Therefore, in ancient human society, they had a very noble status. In order to satisfy these creatures that look like but not like themselves, humans once paid a considerable price." "You should not feel strange to the term "living sacrifices., right?"

Of course Tianxiang is not unfamiliar with it. In fact, he was quite familiar with it. After all, in ancient human history, such things happened too much. From various natural phenomena to the later pursuit of good weather, the sacrifice of living people almost ran through the entire human history. Except for those who did think that were indeed caused by natural reasons, the rest were almost related to various beast-headed people. The ultimate fate of these humans who were regarded as sacrifices was all the snacks and tore them alive. Sphinx Sphinx used riddles to make the passers-by and ate those who could not guess the answer. The Taurus Minotaus was exiled in the maze, and the things it liked were young virgins. There were also all kinds of beast-headed human-body monsters in Chinese legends, all of which regarded living people as food. All of this was related to those cruel and cruel humanoids.

It is so similar. "They have always existed in human society." Tianrou's voice sounded again: "Do you still remember the werewolf legend that was popular in ancient European and American countries? That should be the most prominent representative of humanoids entering human society. I suspect that it should be the representative of extremely high wisdom among humanoids. Use such legends to conceal people and achieve the best example of successfully infiltrating into human society. After all, in the documents that have been preserved to this day, ancient humans seem to have not discovered large-scale survival groups. Some are just a few or individual special cases." "In other words, those guys hiding in urban sewers use this method to escape the eyes of human beings. They successfully hide themselves in the closest to humans, but there are places that cannot be detected at all. Is that true?" Tianxiang said involuntarily.

"It should be like this. After all, from Tianrou nodded. She immediately frowned: "But there is a problem that I can't guess until now. And those items I found in humanoid cities cannot explain any explanation at all."

"What's the problem?" Tian Xiang said strangely. "Time!"

"Time?" "Remember? No. 11 once said that according to the explanation of those humanoids, they have survived on the earth for hundreds of thousands of years. Moreover, based on all the legends of ancient humanoids, the civilization and technology they possessed at that time should have reached a very high level. However, from the group of humans you captured, they have just learned to use copper and iron. The entire social state is still at a very backward primitive stage. On the one hand, they are regarded as the ancestor of gods by humans, and on the other hand, they are regarded as the ancestor of gods by humans, and on the other hand, they are also regarded as the ancestor of gods.

On the one hand, it is a humanoid person who is in the slash-and-burn period. With such a huge contrast, don’t you think there is a problem?” “Of course there is a problem.” Tianxiang quickly replied: “In fact, even if you don’t say it, I will ask this. This is really weird, and it doesn’t make sense according to common sense. Having a civilization far exceeds that of human beings, but having to mingle in human society. This is an unexplainable thing in itself. Not to mention such a big civilization gap. But... this reminds me of something.”

"What's the matter?" Tianrou asked. Tianxiang did not speak, but said silently for a long time before he said in a tone that he could not believe in himself: "What do you think is the difference between our current situation and those ancient people...?"

"We? Ancient people?" Tianrou was a little puzzled: "Of course it's different! They are destroyed humans, with knowledge and civilization. And we are just a group of "hunters" who inherit their heritage. Of course it's different. You know... wait... what you mean is... Oh my God!... This is impossible... impossible!" "It's entirely possible. Everything is possible." Tianxiang said with a gloomy face: "Since the beginning, I have been thinking about this issue. Are humanoids, like us, all of whom are the survivors who remain in this world after civilization was destroyed?"
