When I suddenly looked up at the mountain wall, there was only a half-empty rope swaying in the wind, and Si Ruo had long since disappeared.

"Si Ruo...... Si Ruo ......, "At that time, I didn't care that I was still in danger, and I didn't care if I would attract the demon servants in the building, I only knew to call Si Ruo's name like crazy."

"Don't shout!" Ye Xun said in a deep voice behind me, "Si Ruo should have just been arrested. ”

I looked blankly at Ye Xun, who was also standing in the water, and the latter raised his hand to the broken part of the rope: "You can see for yourself how there is a rope in the water." Si Ruo deliberately took the rope away to imply that she had fallen into the hands of the other party. ”

We used a professional climbing rope, which was not only extremely strong but also carried a certain weight, and would never wash away the stream at this speed, and the absence of rope in the water only proved that Si Ruo had taken away the broken rope.

I still didn't feel at ease, so I looked for a change in the water and turned around and landed on the opposite shore.

I looked up at the pyramid-like buildings in the distance, took a deep breath and said, "Let's go!"

It's not that I don't want to sneak into the building in front of me, but I have no possibility of sneaking in, I shouted and shouted, and I shouted, and it didn't make sense to cover it up again, so it was better to walk in in a grand manner, at least it was like a rainbow.

When Ye Xun and I each pressed the hilt of the knife on our waists and strode to the front of the stairs, we saw five double-headed demon servants standing on the edge of the stairs, the first demon servant opened four bloody eyes at the same time and swept lightly over the two of us, then bent down and sat down to make a gesture of please, while the other two demon servants bowed their bodies at the same time and showed two soft sedan chairs like sliding rods.

After Ye Xun and I glanced at each other, we got up and sat on the sedan chair, and the two demon servants lifted the sedan chair and walked to the top floor of the building step by step.

As I watched the other man's footsteps, I noticed that the servants were not walking in a straight line, but changing their direction every time they had traveled a distance, and the steps that could have gone straight up and down seemed unusually tortuous under their feet.

Otherwise, the demon servant wouldn't have moved back and forth like this.

I couldn't help but move my body, wanting to see where the demon servant had landed, but before I could bow my head, I sat back in my place with a dumb smile - if the owner of the building wanted to kill me, what if I remembered the escape route? A master like the man in red had already been silently planted in the hands of the other party, not to mention me and Ye Xun.

After I calmly sat back in the soft sedan chair, I heard Ye Xun gently knock on the armrest of the sedan chair a few times.

When I looked up, I saw a bronze statue with a human face and nine heads in the stairs on the steps.

That should be the water monster recorded in "On Balance": "Cang Zhi, the beast in the water, is also good at overturning human ships...... When he is floating, he has nine heads, and people are afraid of it. ”

What really chilled my heart was not the lifelike statue, but the pale face. If it only has a head, isn't it the ghost-faced mackerel we encountered under the cave in the lonely mountain?

When I looked at Ye Xun in shock, the latter also nodded slightly, and he also doubted whether Cang Yu had something to do with the ghost-faced shark.

I gently knocked on the statue twice with my hand when I passed by the statue of Cang, but the demon servant carrying us suddenly let out a roar of rage, and threw the soft sedan chair on the ground with both hands.

I was startled and reached out to the hilt of the knife, but a woman's roar came from the top of the steps: "Presumptuous!"

The four demon servants knelt on the ground at the same time and kowtowed repeatedly, until they found that no one spoke on it, so they carefully lifted the soft sedan chair and walked up the steps again.

I didn't breathe a sigh of relief until I was sure that there was nothing unusual about the four demon servants.

I have already judged from the echo of the statue just now that the craftsmanship of the statue is the same as that of the bronze pillar in the Lonely Mountain Cave, and it may even be the same person's handwriting.

Although Sichuan and Yunnan are not thousands of miles apart, they belonged to two countries in the pre-Qin era, and they were all under the rule of ethnic minorities at that time.

Is it the Yanshi lineage?

There are also mechanisms in the Lonely Mountain Cave, although not as subtle as the Trap Maze, but it is just as breathtaking. Even the power of the engine off has similarities, except that one of them uses a giant python and the other uses a demon servant.

Just as I was thinking about it, a shadow suddenly appeared over my head, and when I looked up, a phoenix with nine human heads had appeared on the steps—Nine Phoenix.

Another nine-headed statue?

A short moment later, one nine-headed statue after another appeared in front of me one after another, the enlightened beast, the Xiangliu, and the nine infants...... These strange beasts recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" were all shaped into bronze statues and placed on the steps layer by layer.

It dawned on me that this was not the stronghold of some Yanshi's descendants, but the lair of the evil warlocks, or a temple.

The man in red was not wrong, this warlock believed that the power of immortality and even flying to the heavens and the earth came from the human head, and the more heads the greater the power brings, so they worshiped all the legendary creatures with nine heads, whether they were gods or monsters.

The information obtained by the red-clothed man back then must have paid an extremely heavy price, and those corpses in the stream were likely to be the detectives who infiltrated this temple. They brought back the information, but they themselves remained forever in the stream outside the temple.

I just touched the god worshiped by the demon servant, and the demon servant would naturally be furious, if it wasn't for that woman's suppression, I'm afraid they would have pounced on me and tore me to pieces.

Just as my thoughts were racing, the four demon servants had already brought me to the door of the main hall on the top floor, and the demon servants put down the soft sedan chair and prostrated on the ground, slowly moving their knees and retreating to the bottom of the steps. And I also saw the statue of the emperor erected in the middle of the main hall.

The Nine Human Emperors sitting in the heart of the main hall are the ultimate objects of worship by the warlocks, but the majestic Human Emperor statue has only eight heads like the Nine Babies of the Mechanism, and the human head in the middle is replaced by a bronze coffin.

I stood up and arched my hand at the coffin and said, "Wang Huan, the probe hand, I have seen my predecessors." ”

"You can call me Qin Siyue. "A female voice came from the coffin, although it was not loud, but it was loud and sound, making me feel as if the other party was standing next to me and talking.

Is she Qin Siyue? But I don't know what to say for a while?

Qin Siyue said like an old friend: "Does everything in front of you make you feel strange?"

"Yes!" I simply stood there and looked up at the coffin unscrupulously: "If the seniors don't mind, please solve my doubts." ”

"Let me think about where to start. Qin Siyue only said one sentence and stopped.

Although I couldn't see Qin Siyue's expression, I instinctively felt that Qin Siyue seemed to be looking out of the main hall, and had passed her thoughts through countless years.

After a long while, Qin Siyue said, "You have the word sect now, right?"

"Yes!" I nodded, "According to the dictionary, a sect is a combination of martial arts types and factions. ”

Qin Siyue said: "In the era I live in, there are no sects of warlocks, and there is not even a decent organization, I don't know what to call the warlocks here, let's just call them the Nine Heads Gate!"

Qin Siyue continued, "For countless years in the past, I have been searching for the secret of immortality. Wherever there is such news, I will find out, whether it is true or not. Even if there is a trace of clues, I have to take a look and give it a try, even the Kunlun Secret Realm where the legendary Queen Mother of the West lives is no exception. ”

Qin Siyue's words revealed a message to me, she was not from the Qin Dynasty, and she might have lived longer than that.

If what she said was true, she might be the earliest Detective Hands, and even before the name Detective Hands appeared, she was already beginning to explore mythical forbidden areas.

Although I was shocked and inexplicable, I listened quietly on the surface.

Qin Siyue continued: "When Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng was chasing the immortal elixir, I broke into the Qin Palace, but I couldn't find what I was looking for. ”

"It wasn't until Liu Che, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, wanted to seek immortality again, that I heard that there was another person in the world who pursued immortality with nine heads, and that person had also found Liu Che's method of offering immortality, but Liu Che thought it was evil art and almost killed the other party. After the man left in the palace of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he stayed in Chang'an for a while, and I followed the clues he left in Chang'an all the way to find here. ”

"Wait a minute!" I suddenly interrupted Qin Siyue: "Since the predecessors have already reached the era of the two great emperors of Emperor Qin and Han Wu, aren't they already immortal?

Qin Siyue said with a smile: "Someone has also asked me about this matter, I can only tell you that I am not seeking the art of immortality for myself. Moreover, even I can't explain why I can't live and die for a long time. Can you understand?"

Although Qin Siyue's words are full of contradictions, I can still roughly understand what she means.

It's just that I don't fully believe it.

Her words are a contradiction in themselves. How could a person who was already immortal not know the reason for her immortality? Could it be that she didn't even know what she had been through?

Qin Siyue meant that she was looking for the elixir of immortality for others, if that person hadn't eaten the elixir of immortality, I am afraid that he would have already turned into a pile of dry bones, Qin Siyue should have found the elixir of resurrection. If that person hadn't died for a hundred years, what was the point of Qin Siyue looking for the immortal elixir for the sake of a person who had already attained immortality?

However, it doesn't make any sense for Qin Siyue to lie to me about this matter, she already has an absolute advantage, so why bother?
