I Wasn’t Born Lucky - Chapter 206
The place Xiao Li said was the church he visited yesterday, and it was also the cross-domed castle that appeared on Wen Wenwen’s map.
There is no other reason. The temple and the church are the same place to some extent. If it is the place where the Sphinx is, it should be here.
It was a castle with a cross cast on the top. The whole was built of gray brick walls. Unlike the magnificent castle in ordinary people’s impressions, this castle looks extremely depressing. It is more like a prisoner than a castle. The place of punishment.
Xiao Li originally planned to set an alarm clock to wake him up because of the “first ray of light” in the prophecy, but Jin Handong happened. Everyone was called before the alarm clock went off. He also took the opportunity to come here. .
The whole town was still asleep, and the wind was very strong, blowing dust on people’s faces in the darkness.
Xiao Li put on his cloak and hat silently, covered his nose and mouth with his hands, exhaled in a small breath, and walked up the steps.
There was no one at the door, and it was not even locked. It seemed to be a place to enter and leave at will.
Xiao Li put his hand on the door and used force inside to push it away so easily.
The inside of the castle is very empty. The stairs are in an arc-shaped circle and go up, like a snake, entwining the building. There is a decoration carved on the handrail of each staircase. Xiao Li looked closer. It was discovered that it was a statue of Sphinx that had shrunk countless times.
The Sphinx lay lazily on the armrest, lifelike, as if it would come alive in the next second, opening its mouth and yawning.
“Meow.”
For some reason, the little black cat took the initiative to jump out of the little yellow book, stretched out his paws and slapped up the head of the sphinx on the stairs on the first floor, then looked back at Xiao Li, as if wondering why the body of the statue was himself , The head belongs to human beings.
Except for these stairs, the whole church was empty, with no windows around it, only a closed glass skylight above the head, and candlestick after candlestick on the wall, but there were no candles inside.
Xiao Li looked around and waved to the little black cat.
The black cat tilted his head, jumped off the statue of Sphinx, walked briskly in front of Xiao Li, abruptly being grabbed by the other side of the cat’s body, and rubbed it back and forth on the bottom step as a cat meat blanket. , The pure black fur was stained with dust.
Little black cat: “Hey, blew?”
It was so angry that it didn’t even react to it, watching the shameless human sit down where it had just wiped it clean.
Before the little black cat jumped over to catch someone, Xiao Li raised a finger: “Change three cans, pure meat.”
The little black cat’s movements were stopped by such a simple sentence.
After a long time, it stretched out a paw and put it on Xiao Li’s knee: “Meow.”
Five.
Xiao Li: “Okay.”
The little black cat swung his tail, jumped into the arms of the human being in front of him, and licked his nose with the cat’s head coquettishly.
Xiao Li retracted his gaze from the skylight above his head, looked at it, and stretched out his right hand to scratch the little black cat’s chin.
The cat pursed comfortably from its throat.
With the passage of time, the night will end, the sky will turn from dark black to dark blue, thin clouds surging in the sky, and the first rays of light will penetrate the darkness with a certain force and spill into the castle.
The first ray…
Xiao Li patted the little black cat, motioning it to jump off his knees, and then stood up and walked towards the middle of the winding staircase.
There were no organs, no abnormalities, or even attacks by ghosts, only the first rays of light fell from diagonally above, illuminating a corner.
The silence here reminds Xiao Li of the existence of libraries in reality.
Where is the so-called temple of records?
He squinted his eyes slightly and looked carefully at the place where the light hits. It happened to be the junction of the second and third floors. The statue of Sphinx on the stairs on the third floor seemed to have been given to his eyes, it was bathed in sunlight. In the middle, the tail is the boundary between darkness and light.
Xiao Li walked quickly up to the third floor, first stretched out his hand to scratch the head of the Sphinx statue, feeling cold, and then took a step back, just standing in the shadow.
At that moment, many images appeared in front of him, as if they were in the scene of a three-dimensional surround device. They flashed away, and finally froze in the final scene.
The first picture is a group of Atlantis standing in front of the temple, wearing white robes, opening their hands toward the sea.
Then there were two people sitting in the house and outside the house, with a bottle of ignited incense next to the person inside, as well as an open bottle of essential oil.
There is a bubble next to the people in the room. Inside the bubble is a schematic diagram of the grazing farm. The people on the outside walk towards the farm as requested by the people inside.
In addition, there are many pictures showing the civilization of Atlantis at that time.
The last scene is an overview picture. The picture shows the islands in the middle of the sea. It seems that they are not surrounding the sea, but the sea comes to worship them. It is the civilization in Xiao Li’s dream, Atlantis.
However, such a glorious civilization has ushered in the end. The sea is no longer the blue of the past, the waves set off angry waves, the blazing sun dyes the sky, the temple collapses, and the people fled in panic, but they could not find a safe shelter.
However, the most striking thing in this scene is a hand.
It was a hand that covered the sky and the sun. The waves and flames were willing to serve as foils. This hand covered it down and erased the traces of Atlantis.
Xiao Li tried to tap the light curtain in front of him with his finger, but went straight through it.
Is it uncontrollable?
He observed the painting in front of him again, and found that there was a paragraph written in messy handwriting underneath, using a transparent notch, which was hard to notice at first glance.
[The sea becomes an iceberg, the glory is a curse, and everything is no longer glorious. 】
[At the cost of the lives of a hundred sacrifices, I saw the future, I saw the waves of fate. 】
[It is He who looks after us. He calls us blasphemers. We can only become His slaves, endure curses, lose freedom, reincarnate again and again, be stripped from the sub-universe and become part of ‘it’. 】
[Outsiders, you can read this passage without hindrance. This is always open to you, because you will eventually become ‘us’, and ‘us’ is the same. 】
[Before everything comes, to the future ‘us’. 】
This is all the content left by the Temple of Records for outsiders.

When Xiao Li left the Hall of Records, he was thinking about whether to go to the movie theater or go back to the house to find other people first, only to find that Shen Mirage was standing at this door.
The outside wind was very cold, and the young man didn’t know how long he had been standing here. As soon as Xiao Li approached him, a chill came.
Xiao Li no longer asked why the other party appeared, he gradually got used to this feeling.
Shen Mirage first said: “They are in the west.”
When they found Wen Wenwen and others, it was not near the cinema, but in front of a shop outside the town.
The sun has completely risen, and the locals have begun to go out. A group of laughing young people walked into the shop surrounded by each other, while other reincarnations were in front of the shop. Strangely, they seemed to feel something, their backs against the wall, their faces to each other. Towards each other, eyes closed.
I have to say that this scene looks a bit like a blind party at first glance.
Among the reincarnations, Jin Handong whispered: “East, at ten o’clock.”
“If it doesn’t go, should we keep walking like this with our eyes closed?” Bruce leaned on the wall with his hands. The loss of vision made him feel violent. He tried to walk two steps forward like this and almost fell. inverted.
“The thing that makes us peeking is not the same as the cut-throat figure,” Wen Wenwen is relatively calm. “First, focus on the overall situation so that we can see if it will disappear.”
Wen Wenwen stood a little closer to Xiao Li, Xiao Li could see his face tightened, his cheeks twitched slightly, and his hands were clenching unconsciously, as if he was nervous about something.
Eyes closed…Is that peeping feeling coming again?
Xiao Li didn’t rush over, maybe because he was not near the reincarnation, so he could not feel the sense of peeping. On the contrary, he stretched the distance and circled around the place where Wen Wenwen and others were, trying Find the source of sight.
Opposite the reincarnations, there are not many places to hide, just a few.
Except for the walls and shops behind them, there are small roads on the left and right sides, while the opposite is a residential area with green trees and flowers, and some basic living facilities.
According to Xu Jiaheng’s mother and the scenes in the movie, compared to the distance, peepers generally prefer to hide in a small corner nearby, waiting for the frightened eyes and screams when they are found by the peepers.
And here is only…
Xiao Li searched for a circle, first walked to the big tree, and inserted his hand into the tree’s eye. After finding that there was no tree eye, he locked the target in the trash can diagonally.
He walked across the lawn briskly. The sound of grass and wind covered his footsteps. When he was only one palm away from the trash can, Xiao Li saw the peeper.
It was a familiar figure, with his back facing Xiao Li, he stuffed himself into the trash can, showing only a pair of eyes, looking at the opposite Wen Wenwen and others.
It might be a terrible thing to bathe in his sight, but standing behind him, there is a completely different emotion:
…Looking at it this way, it is quite difficult to squeeze him in, and the process should be bumpy.
Not easy.
Xiao Li sighed in his heart. After observing for a while, he stretched out his hand and patted the shoulder of the peeper from behind.
Tan Li stood up with interest, the doll’s hair stretched out from the other side, Xiao Li patted the opponent’s left shoulder, and it rested on the opponent’s right shoulder.
Beat twice.
Peeping well, the peeper who suddenly got on both shoulders:? ? ? ?
