Chapter Thirty-Six: The Underground Otherworld
"Senior sister has really helped a lot......" Then Su Fan took out the rope that Lu Haixue gave him from the Sumeru bag, Lu Haixue's original idea was that if Su Fan encountered something that he couldn't handle, he could use this rope to trap the enemy for a moment and create an opportunity for Su Fan to escape. I really didn't expect Su Fan to use this rope to do such a thing......
Under the surprised look on the mysterious man's face, Su Fan tied himself with one end of the rope, and handed the other end to the mysterious man's hand, and then said: "As for me, I'm not the kind of person who retreats in distress, I'm sorry to break your rope, but this rope should be okay." ”
"You agreed?" The man's face instantly became pleasantly surprised, his terrifying big mouth grinned to make his face even more terrifying, and then he looked at the rope in his hand and looked a little distracted, and then clenched the rope in his hand and said, "This rope looks like a good magic weapon, and this fluctuation does not seem to exceed the limit of the flesh realm, etc., this rope ...... Could it be ......?"
"Could it be what?" Su Fan asked, he didn't pay much attention to Lu Haixue when he gave it to him, and thought it was just an ordinary magic weapon, looking at this person's expression, it seemed that this rope was a bit of a trick.
"It's nothing, it's nothing, I read it wrong...... the man said hurriedly, but Su Fan could still see the complexity in this person's eyes, and he seemed to be a little hesitant, and he still didn't tell Su Fan about the rope.
"It doesn't matter if you don't say it, anyway, I'm not interested in knowing, the focus now is on the holy relics of your clan," Su Fan looked at the mysterious man and then shook the rope in his hand and said to him, "I'll go down later, if I succeed in getting it, I will pull the rope three times, but if I don't find it, I will pull it twice, which means that whether I get the beads or not, you have to pull me up, understand?"
Su Fan is also gambling, betting that this person is telling the truth, so in this case, they will definitely pull themselves up for the holy weapon of their clan, but if this person is lying to himself, then he is in a catastrophe, even if he does not jump into the well, there will be other dangers, it is better to gamble once.
"Yes, I will definitely pull the young man up, and if the young man can successfully bring Xiangzhu out, my clan will serve the young man as a guest and a distinguished guest of our clan!" The mysterious man said excitedly, he has been waiting for this day for a long time, if it is another rope, it may not be able to withstand the oppression of the seal and break, but now this rope in his hand will definitely not, as long as the elders in the clan are right, today is the day to welcome the clan holy weapon again!
"After I took out this rope, you seemed very excited, and it felt like I could definitely be pulled up by you?" Su Fan said casually, although he didn't seem to care, he still wanted to get some news about this rope from this person's mouth, and what made Su Fan feel relaxed was that from the tone of the person just now, it seemed that everything he had said before was true, especially the excitement in the last sentence, which made Su Fan feel like he was being respected.
"This rope...... Don't say much, and ask the young man to help my clan retrieve the holy relics as soon as possible!" the man bowed deeply towards Su Fan.
"Forget it, if you don't say it, then I'll go. Su Fan didn't have any ink, so he stood directly by the well and jumped down...... I don't know how deep this well is, the further down it is, the more dark it is, the magic is that here Su Fan will not descend quickly at a normal speed, but slowly descend, Su Fan looked around, but it was pitch black here, it could be said that he couldn't see anything, he could only see the rope exuding a faint golden light, and there seemed to be something else terrifying hidden in this well. In this uneasiness, Su Fan suddenly saw that in the darkness below, two scarlet lights faintly appeared. These two red rays even exude a burst of coldness, especially at the bottom of this pitch-black river, just like the eyes of two monsters, which is shocking at the same time, and the hairs on the whole body will stand up.
Su Fan continued to go down, and what appeared below Su Fan turned out to be a huge statue, this statue was not a human form, but a snake, with a wide head, the snake body stretched, and there was no end in sight, and the two red lights just now were emitted by the two eyes of the snake's head.
"The entrance to these two realms, shouldn't it be in this snake's mouth......" Su Fan looked at it and said, making him feel strange that he didn't know how far he had fallen, but the rope that tied him had not yet reached the end, as if it could extend infinitely......
Su Fan came to the mouth of the stone snake, and there was a faint layer of diaphragm here, this should be the so-called seal, and it didn't look particularly powerful...... Su Fan thought in his heart, then he stretched out a finger and poked the film, and found that there was no obstacle, and then he drilled lightly, and Su Fan stepped into the mouth of the stone snake. At this time, what appeared in front of him was a huge grotto, there were many sharp rocks around this grotto, with interlaced canine teeth, which looked very hideous, and Su Fan felt that he had come to hell for a while.
"This is the ghost realm? It's really a little scary......" Su Fan frowned and said, the smell of this place made him very uncomfortable, a damp fishy smell......
Su Fan looked back and found that he wore the rope unharmed, and there was no feeling that it would break, which made Su Fan breathe a sigh of relief.
He continued to walk forward, it was pitch black here, there was no daylight at all, there was no sky, no earth, no day and no night, but there was still a gray light here that I don't know where it came from, so that people could see a little bit of the scene around them. Su Fan felt that the stairs he walked on were a little awkward, so he looked down and found that the stairs here were all lined up with human skulls, which made Su Fan feel cold, and then Su Fan looked around Su Fan and found that there seemed to be a fence on both sides, but what was disgusting was that the fence was also a combination of various leg bones and arm bones, and the bones were covered with various thorny vines......
Su Fan couldn't help but speed up his pace, at this time, the little girl on his shoulder woke up with a milky voice, and when he saw everything around him, he seemed to be frightened, and he hugged Su Fan tighter, and Su Fan, who had not yet reacted, was almost suffocated by the little guy.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here. Su Fan gently touched Fei Fei's little head and said, and then Xiao Fei Fei also responded to Su Fan with a muffled voice, but unfortunately Su Fan couldn't understand what Fei Fei was talking to himself, but to be honest, Su Fan was more or less worried in his heart, after all, the surrounding environment was really terrifying, if a person who was a little less courageous came here, he would probably be scared half to death.
"Is this already in the ghost realm...... I didn't see any beads either......" Su Fan said to himself, his current desire is to find the beads as soon as possible and go back, and he doesn't want to stay in this place for a quarter of an hour, "There seems to be light ahead?" Since the light here is a little dim, Su Fan is extremely sensitive to light.
There was a white point of light not far from him, Su Fan slowly touched it, and gradually the light became more and more dazzling, until Su Fan passed through that bit of light, and he finally saw a new picture of the world.
He stood on a suspended stone staircase, the stone staircase was constantly moving, and everywhere Su Fan could see, there was desolation and endless fragments, as if everything here was broken. Su Fan felt that he was in a starry sky, and everything around him seemed to be like stars, floating aimlessly.
The most unacceptable thing for Su Fan was that he found that the rope on his body suddenly disappeared without knowing when, which made him fall into a panic, what to do, without the rope, then he would not be able to return to the original world!
"This is already the ninth......" Just when Su Fan fell into a panic, an old voice came, which startled Su Fan even more.
"Who is it?" asked Su Fan vigilantly, looking around, only to find that there was no one.
"You're the ninth human to come here in years...... the voice came again, "I'm just a useless Boundary Keeper...... You don't have to be afraid, I don't mean ......"
From his voice, you can hear that the feeling of sadness seems to permeate the whole world.
The little Xiao Fei on Su Fan's shoulder looked at everything around him curiously, his eyes widened, and he kept stretching his neck to look east and west, as if he was full of curiosity about everything here.
"Senior, can you tell me the whereabouts of the eight people before?" Su Fan asked, the name of the Boundary Keeper seemed to be guarding the boundary of the realm, and he said that he was the ninth, so Su Fan immediately judged that the previous eight people were the disciples of the Lower Xuanzong who disappeared here.
"I don't know, it's already gone...... the voice replied.
Then, before Su Fan could continue to speak, the voice came again, and asked Su Fan, "You are also here to find beads?"
"What beads?" Although the invisible voice said that he had no malicious intent, Su Fan was still reluctant to directly expose his purpose.
"Heh, you little guy is quite alert, but even if you don't say it, I know that you are all here to find the cold water beads. The voice said, as if it had seen everything.
"Cold Water Bead?" Su Fan was stunned for a moment, didn't he say that the bead was called Xiangzhu, how did it become a cold water bead again? Could it be that the person was lying to himself just now?
"That cold water bead has existed since the birth of my ghost world, and it is the treasure of my world, and there are always little cubs who don't know the height of the sky to fight the idea of this world's treasure, and in the end, life and death are not under their own control, why bother?" the man said with a sigh.
Hearing the defender explain, Su Fan was a little dazed for a while, not knowing who to listen to, the man in Inoue said that this bead is called Xiangzhu, which fell here more than ten years ago, but this keeper said that this bead is a cold water bead that existed at the beginning of the birth of the ghost world, what is going on?
