Chapter 1708: Demon Palace
They walked through the empty and dead streets to the palace-like building, only to find that a black plaque hung on its door, which read the Demon Temple.
Sister Ajuan smiled: "Good girl, it's terrible, this is the Demon Palace, it seems that it is the place where the demon lived." ”
Helen shrugged, she was also a dark creature, the same origin as the demons, both products from hell, and it felt like this brightly colored, antique building didn't look like a demon's palace.
In her understanding, demons all live in dark and cold caves, littered with skeletons and bones, and filled with disgusting evil creatures such as poisonous insects and spiders.
It's not just her who feels, everyone thinks so.
Old Qin Tou was puzzled: "I don't feel like this is a demon hall, but more like an immortal mansion." ”
Mo Yun shook his head: "Don't be deceived by illusions, this city is full of evil, and this place is no exception, we still have to be vigilant." ”
Ye Feng reminded: "Mr. Mo is right, don't be fooled by illusions, this is one of the demon's usual tricks, we have to be more careful." ”
Everyone walked into the Demon Hall together, which extends in all directions, there are at least three courtyards, the courtyard is deep, the houses are lined up, and the most surprising thing is that in the courtyard, it is actually shaded by green trees and bamboo forests.
A clear stream meanders and bubbles outward.
In the past few days, since entering the Devil's Desert, all I saw was black and gray, and everyone's emotions were involuntarily rendered by this black, and they became depressed and irritable.
Suddenly seeing the verdant green, everyone was suddenly in a much happier mood.
Old Qin Tou hurriedly walked to the side of the stream, picked up a handful of water and drank it, his mouth was sweet and warm.
He couldn't help but laugh: "Hot springs, this is a hot spring. ”
"Amitabha, the poor monk has long been thirsty, let the poor monk also take a sip. ”
Except for Ye Feng, Jiang Yixue, and Helen, everyone scrambled to drink the water in the stream, which was not only clear and clean, but also had a somewhat warm feeling.
Ye Feng and Jiang Yixue had drunk mineral water before entering Demon Sand City just now, they were not thirsty, and they were not too excited to see the hot springs, Helen didn't need to drink water at all, she drank water purely to keep her body hydrated, not to survive.
Only then did everyone understand that this demon temple was built on this hot spring oasis, and in the endless devil's desert, there was such a green oasis, and the hot springs were extremely rare, which made everyone excited.
Sister Ajuan found Grandma Butterfly's footprints in the mahogany corridor: "There are footprints here, go to the wing room over there." ”
The wing room on the left has a pair of vermilion red doors, carved with beautiful Luan Feng auspicious patterns, and the window lattice is also carved with a hundred flowers, which looks like the boudoir of the young lady.
Old Qin Tou was good at carving, and couldn't help but praise: "The craftsmanship is good, it's more exquisite than Tingshui Xiaoge." ”
Mo Yun smiled: "Finally found a better painter than you, I thought that no one in the Immortal Realm could compare to you." ”
Sister Ajuan said lightly: "No matter how exquisite the painting here is, it can't compare to the craftsmanship of Lao Qintou." ”
Lao Qintou said to Sister Ajuan: "Thank you, Sister Ajuan, for the compliment, I'll call that crazy woman to come over, you drink more water here and rest for a while, maybe we still have a longer way to go." ”
"I'll go with you. ”
Mo Yun and Lao Qintou pushed open the vermilion lacquer door of the wing room, and with a squeak, the door opened in response, and it was covered with dust, and I don't know how many years it had been vacant.
The wing room is divided into two rooms, inside and outside, and a line of footprints has been going inward, and I have walked to the inner room.
In the hall outside the wing room, there is a mahogany round table and four round wooden stools, all of which are covered with dust, and on the mahogany table, a handprint is clearly displayed, and the size should be the handprint of Grandma Butterfly.
Thinking that Grandma Butterfly was in the back room, Lao Qin Tou said angrily: "Crazy woman, don't run around, this is the territory of the devil, in case ......"
"Strange, why is there no one?"
Follow the footprints all the way to the inner room, where there is a huge rosewood flower show bed, and a dragon and phoenix auspicious embroidered screen.
There is a portrait of a beautiful woman hanging on the wall of the house, and it is very likely that she is the owner of this house.
On the wall opposite the portrait hung a half-human-high bronze mirror, and the figures of Lao Qin Tou and Mo Yun appeared in the bronze realm.
The house was empty, and Grandma Butterfly was not in the back room.
The footprints clearly walked under the bronze mirror on the wall, and they disappeared.
"The crazy woman isn't here, where did she go?"
"Old Qin Tou, look at the footprints, it's so strange, she obviously walked in front of the mirror, looked at the mirror for a while, and then, the footprints disappeared. ”
Lao Qintou looked at the house carefully, all the places were covered with dust, except for the pair of footprints of Grandma Butterfly, there were footprints of himself and Mo Yun, absolutely no one else had come, and no one had ever gone out.
Old Qin Tou and Mo Yun stood under the copper realm together, looking at the copper realm.
"The crazy woman won't be eaten by this bronze realm, will he? His footprints are gone here. ”
"Is it possible, is this a man-eating city? Yu Lao Er was eaten by the stone lion at the city gate. ”
"I think we're a little bit away from this mirror. This is a place where anything can happen. ”
Ye Feng saw that Old Qin Tou and Mo Yun were silent in the wing, he heard the conversation between Old Qin Tou and Mo Yun in the room, although their voices were very small, they couldn't escape Ye Feng's ears.
He also walked into the elegant boudoir: "What happened?"
"That crazy woman, come here, and then ......"
Old Qin Tou made a gesture of flying away, and Mo Yun explained: "She disappeared." ”
Suddenly, a shrill laugh rang out from the courtyard: "You are here too, I thought you didn't dare to come in." ”
That's Grandma Butterfly's voice, and her laughter is like someone banging on a broken gong, which is very ugly.
Sister Ajuan said disdainfully: "We thought you were eaten by some fierce beast, we looked for you everywhere, strange, where did you go?" Old Qin Tou and Mo Yun thought you went to that house. ”
"I walked around the backyard, and there was a colorful garden over there, and it was nice to see flowers and drink hot spring water in this hellish place. ”
Old Qin Tou, Mo Yun and Ye Feng looked at each other, since Grandma Butterfly appeared in the yard, whose footprints were these footprints?
Old Qin Tou and Mo Yun felt a chill rising from their spines, and nervously retreated towards the door, could this string of footprints be a trap to deliberately lure people in?
Ye Feng also felt incredible, out of curiosity, his fateful eyes swept to the mirror on the wall, and this look made him gasp.
