Chapter 333: Statute of Limitations
Jing Hong's expression was confused with a little confusion, tilting her head slightly, staring at her fingers. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Suddenly, it felt like it had touched something, and its fingers retracted as if they had been electrocuted.
"It's still there. There seemed to be some kind of pain in Jing Hong's voice, as if at that moment just now, he had been attacked by some kind of attack that they couldn't see.
Mingchuan heard the pain in Jing Hong's voice, turned his head, glanced at it, and then turned back and continued to look around.
It's the demon of the Gao Shan family, and it's not his turn to meddle in his affairs.
However, Jing Hong's words reminded him that the power just now still existed, but he and Gao Shanjing couldn't feel it at all, which showed that no matter what the power was, it didn't work on humans, and it was only aimed at demons or ghosts.
Mingchuan patted his pocket, and Ying Lan squirmed inside, responding.
Shadow Lan doesn't seem to be affected too much. Ming Chuan thought to himself.
Either way, they had to figure out the source of that power, or else the red would always be threatened.
Gao Shan Jing also looked a little distressed.
Ming Chuan frowned, thought for a moment, and thought of a possibility.
"What kind of power is ineffective against humans, and it only has an effect on ghosts?" Ming Chuan felt that his speculation was probably glancing at Gao Shan Jing, and asked lightly.
Gao Shanjing, who was originally thinking about something, frowned when he heard this, raised his head and said, "You mean, there is a magic circle around here?"
Only magic circles have such an effect, only for ghosts, and have almost no effect on humans.
Ming Chuan half-squinted, and said as he looked around with a flashlight, "When I heard that 'Kaguya Mage' had been here, I wondered if he would leave any hands and feet here. ”
Regarding the matter of the "Kaguya Mage", he had mentioned it to Gao Shanjing before he came down, and at this time, listening to his reminder, Gao Shanjing touched his chin, and after a moment of silence, he said: "The magic circle is time-limited, because the energy consumed is large, and the general magic circle does not last too long, unless someone constantly repairs the artifacts that make up the magic circle and replenishes its energy, otherwise, it is already rare to last for several months." ”
"Is that so?" Mingchuan didn't know much about this. But didn't the Magatama circle that Takayama Kaguya had planted in the Meili River continue to work for decades? Could it be that during this period, Takayama Kaguya would still come every year to replenish the energy of those Magatama? How could it be?
"As far as I know, the Kaguya Ancestor who has the highest attainment in the magic circle at present, the ordinary magic circle he has made is only about two or three years at most. Gao Shanjing paused, and then said, "The Magatama circle in the Meili River is an exception, the only one I've ever seen that has been working for more than ten years without human interference. ”
"It's rare to see something like this?" asked Akegawa.
"As I just said, it's the only one I've ever seen. Gao Shanjing turned his head and looked at Ming Chuan, the corners of his mouth still had his usual smile, but his eyes were very serious.
Ming Chuan scratched his hair and said, "Maybe this 'Kaguya Mage' also has the same skills as Takayama Kaguya. ”
"I have reservations about your words. Gao Shan said with a smile.
"Looks like you're confident in your family. Ming Chuan glanced at him.
"You're right. Gao Shan Jing admitted with a smile.
Of course, although Ming Chuan said this, he didn't really think that "Kaguya Mage" could do what Takayama Kaguya did.
If the circle laid by the "Kaguya Mage" could not last for more than ten years, then how can the current state be explained?
He remembered the scene when he fought the "Kaguya Mage" before, and his brow furrowed slightly.
Ming Chuan half-squinted his eyes and said to Gao Shanjing: "Can you hide the red from the interference of that force?"
The demon can hide in the form of his master, just as Shadow Lan usually hides in his shadow, keeping a certain distance from the space of the present world.
However, he knew that Gao Shan Jing was not the true owner of Jing Hong, so he couldn't be sure if they would be able to do it.
Gao Shanjing didn't answer, but turned to face Qin Hong, who was temporarily protected by the magic circle, and said, "You retreat first." ”
Qing Hong listened to the order and disappeared without a sound.
Seeing this, Ming Chuan didn't ask anything, and said to Gao Shanjing: "Looking at the appearance of Jing Hong just now, the source of that power should be below here, and it won't be too far away from us, let's go over and see the situation first and then consider the next step." ”
Gao Shanjing nodded and agreed to his proposal, and the two continued to walk in the opposite direction of the current.
Due to geological characteristics and the erosion of groundwater, strange caves are sometimes formed underground, which are often called karst caves.
As a scenic spot for people to visit, the karst caves need to go through a series of treatments, and on the basis of retaining the original style to the greatest extent, they can be opened to the public after some artificial reconstruction.
However, the place where Mingchuan and Takayama Jing came from has not undergone any processing, and it presents a completely natural style.
Such underground caves are very dangerous for ordinary people who are not professionals. The terrain inside is very complex, there is often no way out, and the underground river water is also of different depths, some places can wade through the water, but some places will also form a deep pool of tens of meters.
In addition to the terrain, it is not known what other strange things will appear in the cave, whether there are poisonous microorganisms growing in the cave, whether there are gases harmful to the human body, etc., everything is unknown.
The unknown represents danger and fear.
Especially if there is no lighting in the cave, the darkness will magnify all the senses, and similarly, it will magnify the fear in the heart of the human heart several times or even dozens of times.
Groundwater collects into a river at your feet, sometimes deep and sometimes shallow, and many times there are no roads on either side, so you need to move forward with the river water.
The passage is winding and undulating, the ground is difficult to walk, and the surface of the rocks is so smooth that it is difficult to maintain balance.
Although Ming Chuan and Takayama Jing are not ordinary people, in such an environment, the two of them are also cautious about their surroundings, and the speed of moving forward is very slow, even slower and more careful than when they were in the water before.
After walking for a short distance, but it took longer than usual, Ming Chuan drooped his eyelids and said to Gao Shanjing beside him: "Speaking of which, how long is it here?"
"There seems to be a fork in the road. Gao Shanjing did not answer his question, but raised his hand and pointed to the right, and said.
Ming Chuan raised his head, and sure enough, he saw a fork in the road in front of him. (To be continued.) )
