Chapter Twenty-Six: The Man in Chains in the Exquisite Tower
Looking up, there is a gold-inlaid plaque with Linglong Pagoda written on it.
On the first floor of this exquisite pagoda, there is a high table in the middle, the table has four legs, and there is a scripture book on the table, a cymbal, a chime, a wooden fish and a lamp.
Ren Xiaoying picked up the wooden hammer on the table, raised her eyebrows, and said, "There was a monk living here. ”
"Dang!"
Ren Xiaoying swung a wooden hammer and struck on the copper chime on the table, and suddenly let out a metallic sound.
With the buzzing of the copper chime, the entire Linglong Pagoda seemed to tremble slightly.
Lu Li secretly said that it was not good, this Ren Xiaoying was really not enough to succeed, and there were more than enough failures, this Holy Emperor's treasure was full of dangers, even the lame Li Daoran was very taboo, she actually recklessly knocked on the copper chime on the table.
"Don't mess around with the things here!" Lu Li yelled at Ren Xiaoying.
Ren Xiaoying was startled by Lu Li's roar, turned to give him a blank look, and said impatiently: "What a roar, isn't it that nothing happened." ”
As soon as the words fell, a muffled sound suddenly came from overhead, the pagoda trembled, and the dust fell with a clatter.
Now that Lu Li and they have no fighting spirit, even if a vicious dog appears, it is enough for them to drink a pot, and they are still apprehensive when they are chased by the red giant wolf, and they really have to explain what unknown ferocious animals appear.
Ren Xiaoying's face turned pale with fright, the arrogance just now was swept away, and at some point, both hands had grabbed Lu Li's arm tightly, hiding behind him, and blocking Lu Li in front.
Lu Li looked down at the hands that were grabbed on her arms, Ren Xiaoying gave away her hands with an embarrassed face, when she met the red giant wolf, she left Lu Li and Yunmei's stomach and fled, and now she is using Lu Li as a shield.
The vibration on the second floor of the Linglong Pagoda lasted for a while and then quieted down, only the north wind outside was howling, and the bells on the eaves rang chaotically.
Yun Mei looked worried, and came to Lu Li on crutches and said, "I have an ominous premonition, don't live here, let's go quickly." ”
Yunmei's worries are not for nothing, now the three of them are ordinary people, and they can't deal with special situations at all, only dodging is the best choice.
Looking out through the crack in the door, Lu Li's brows tightened.
"Can't get out. ”
"Why can't you get out?"
Ren Xiaoying leaned down to the crack in the door and looked out, and her face instantly became frightened, as if she had seen a ghost during the day.
Seeing the faces of the two, Yun Mei had an ominous premonition in her heart, and she also came to the door, and through the crack in the door, she saw the wind and snow outside, and the north wind was howling.
The cold wind blew the dead man, but it was not enough to make the two of them change their faces in fright, what made them afraid was that in the cold wind, there was a pair of ghostly eyes, which were the eyes of the red giant wolf.
"It's really perseverance!"
Lu Li gritted his teeth and looked up at the stairs leading to the second floor.
There was no light on the second floor, and the dark staircase was like the mouth of a wild beast, waiting for its prey to fall into its net.
The big brother above, if you just sleep and turn over, as long as you don't come down to visit the door, we will be safe and sound, be a friendly neighbor, if you don't know how to lift down and come down, don't blame me for being polite!
After silently reciting in his heart, Lu Li distributed the wooden fish, cymbals and copper chimes on the table to the two girls and asked them to use them as weapons for self-defense.
"There are fierce beasts, there are giant wolves outside, we can only make do here for the time being, Li Daoran said, this group of wolves is snow wolves, they will leave as soon as dawn, we are here tonight, and we are trying to find a way to leave after dawn. ”
Lu Li's idea was beautiful, but the reality was skinny, and as soon as he finished speaking, the door of the Linglong Pagoda was slammed.
"Bang!"
This sound was like a flat-bottomed thunder, which scared the three of them, and Ren Xiaoying even covered her ears and screamed.
"Bang!"
The door was pounded again, the walls trembled, and dust and debris fell down.
Ren Xiaoying squatted on the ground with her head covered, her teeth chattering, and her language was vague: "I'm going to die! I'm going to die! The red giant wolf is going to come in with the door, I don't want to die!"
It was useless to squat on the ground and wail, Lu Li kicked over the table, and then blocked the door.
"Here's for you!"
Lu Li turned his head and saw Yun Mei hand over a stick the thickness of an arm.
Due to the high tension and adrenaline secretion, Yunmei's face turned red, and the hand holding the stick was also trembling.
Lu Li took the stick and put it on the door, and then pulled Yunmei back.
After a high degree of nervousness, Yun Mei actually calmed down, she looked at Lu Li and said, "This door can't stop the red giant wolf, and it's not a way to defend it." ”
Lu Li also knew that the red giant wolf was as strong as a bison, and this door could not be blocked at all, if it hit it a few times, the red giant wolf would break through the gate and come in and eat them all, and there would be no bones left.
The two looked at each other, and they both saw the same answer in each other's eyes, that is, to go upstairs.
There is an unknown powerful creature upstairs, but outside is a red giant wolf that can be seen and has a clear strength, and when the red giant wolf comes in, they will definitely die, but on the second floor, there may be a glimmer of life.
"Let's go!"
Lu Li gave an order, grabbed Ren Xiaoying, who was sitting on the ground and became a mess, took down an oil lamp from the wall with his right hand and walked towards the second floor, followed by Yunmei on crutches.
In order not to startle the snakes, several people walked very carefully, and the steps leading to the second floor were only thirty steps, but they were as cautious as climbing Mount Everest.
Turning the first flight of stairs, Lu Li's eyes fell on the floor of the second floor, the oil lamp in his hand was only the size of a soybean, and he couldn't find the whole picture of the entire second floor at all.
"You're here......"
A voice came from the quiet second floor, the voice was hoarse and depressing, as if it came from hell, and Lu Li got goosebumps all over his body when he heard it.
Lu Li's footsteps paused, his heart suddenly timid, and he had the idea of retreating, and at the same time, the voice remembered again.
"Come up ......"
Looking back at Yunmei, she was also nervous and sweating, after all, the girl was timid, and Lu Li couldn't be cowardly at this time.
If both horizontal and vertical are dead, why should you die of grievances?
With a dry cough, Lu Li puffed up his chest and strode up to the second floor.
As soon as I stepped on the second floor, the candlesticks on the walls burned automatically, illuminating the entire second floor as bright as day, and the facilities inside were clear at a glance.
The furnishings on the second floor are similar to those on the first floor, a table with a scripture book on it, a cymbal, a wooden fish, and a copper chime, but there are more people here.
The man was wrapped in arm-thick chains, leaving only a pair of gray eyes, and more than a dozen chains extended from his body, connecting to the roof of the second floor, hanging him in mid-air.
Lu Li stepped forward to salute respectfully, and was about to explain, but the person who was chained opened his mouth.
"Give me something!"
