The sun is like fire, people are like the sun, Guichen strode to the front of the stone wall, only to see everyone staring at the stone wall in front of him in a daze! Guichen came to the front, only to see that there is indeed a door on the stone wall, the door is made of bronze, the surface is full of patina, it looks very mottled, this door is about eight feet wide, as high as one zhang two, and there are two huge knockers in the middle of six feet.

Chen Chen stood in front of the bronze door, his palms slapped out fiercely, and a loud "boom" came out, but the bronze door did not move at all. "Hiss" Chen Chen only felt that his hands were shaking and painful, and he turned back to everyone and said: "No! It seems that it can't be opened hard, there should be some mechanism or something." ”

"This door is tightly sealed around the perimeter, there is not the slightest gap, obviously it has not been opened for many years, I am afraid that it is still a little difficult to open this door. Guichen looked at it for a long time before saying. Several people glanced at each other, but Yan Ning smiled and said, "It's been many years since the last time the Wind God went in, and it seems that this bronze gate has already been corroded in the wind and rain, and it seems that it needs the help of the Law Minister." ”

Chen Chen nodded and said, "Is there a mechanism for this bronze door to be opened?" Fa Xiang came to the door, looked up and down for a while, and suddenly pointed to the top of the bronze door and said: "Look, there is a gossip mirror in the middle of the copper door!" Yisu was puzzled and asked: "It is rumored that the person who built the formation is the living immortal of the Three Kingdoms - Li Yi, he was born in Taoism, it should be normal to have this gossip mirror!" Fa Xiang nodded and said: "What Yisu said is good! But this gossip mirror is very strange, that is, it is still light after thousands of years, which shows the rarity of this thing." ”

Guichen sighed, and couldn't help asking: "This place is the dragon bone land, where the Qilin treasure is, it's normal to have one or two rare things!" Yan Ning shook his head violently, pointed to the gossip mirror, and said, "I don't know if you have ever noticed that this mirror is not placed vertically, but is slightly tilted." Seeing that everyone had been discussing for a long time without any results, she couldn't help pouting and said: "This gossip mirror is crooked, it may be that it has been too long, or it has been crooked when the formation is built." ”

Dao Yan shook his head violently and said: "This place is strange, so many people have died when they come in, it can be seen that the formation is powerful, how can there be something crooked!" Yan Ning looked in the mirror, looked back into the distance, and suddenly woke up and said, "Look there." ”

The crowd followed his point, and saw a light reflecting off the cliff. The light was biased towards the ground, and the Fa Xiang suddenly woke up and said, "So that's the case!" Everyone heard that he seemed to have some understanding, so they all looked over, and the Fa Xiang pointed to the gossip mirror on the bronze door, and said: "So that's the case, the gossip mirror on the bronze door is oblique to the sky and the gossip mirror oblique to the ground before entering the formation, and when the yang energy is the strongest every day, the sunlight is reflected from the gossip mirror on the copper door to the gossip mirror on the cliff in front of the formation, and the mirror reflects the light to other places, maybe where the sun is, is the place of the organ." ”

Yan Ning was overjoyed when he heard this, and arched his hand and said, "It's going to be hard for Brother Chen." Chen Chen nodded with a smile: "You guys wait a while, I'll go back when I go." After saying that, he ran straight out of the formation.

After a while, Chen Chen finally came back, and as soon as he settled down, he said: "It seems that what Master Faxiang said is good, that light pointed directly at the stone tablet in front of the formation, and the final landing point seems to be in the mouth of that stone turtle." ”

Fa Xiang smiled and nodded, "It can't be wrong! It seems that the mechanism is on that stone turtle." Guichen took out the Wind and Snow Qiankun Fan from his bosom and handed it to Fa Xiang, and said respectfully: "At this moment, in our group of people, only the master is proficient in the mechanism formation, thank you!" Fa Xiang took the fan, nodded at him, and turned out of the formation.

It turned out that Guichen couldn't come and go freely, and he didn't want to return the wind and snow Qiankun fan to Chen Chen or Yan Ning, and only Fa Xiang was a monk, not a member of the "Jie" organization, so he didn't think he would swallow this fan. Yan Ning looked him up and down for a while, and said, "You kid! Hmph!" Guichen knew what he meant, so he had to spread his hands, and said helplessly: "No way! Who told me that I can't beat you!" Yan Ning looked indifferent, waved his hand and said: "Okay! I just need to open the treasure, and I will give it to you if you want to fan the wind and snow!" Guichen was overjoyed when he heard this, and bowed to him and said, "Then thank you Mr. Yan." ”

Just as the two were chatting, there was a sudden sound of chains ringing, and then the mountains shook for a while. I saw that the stones in the innate stone formation were actually displaced, and then the seven stone piles in the spirit array were divided into two sides, and only the middle stone pile was moved to about three zhang in front of the copper door.

The pile of stones suddenly exploded, and after the dust dissipated for a while, a circular stone pier three feet high and about two feet in diameter suddenly appeared in the middle. When everyone saw such a change, they were all shocked in their hearts, but the appearance of this stone pier made people uncurious, and they all surrounded it for a while.

Everyone gathered around, only to see a pattern carved on the stone pier, which was obviously the mechanism that opened the stone door. Fa Xiang happened to come back at this time, he handed the Fengxue Qiankun Fan to Guichen, and said with a smile: "It seems that the little donor really has a lot of wisdom! That stone turtle is indeed a mechanism, and the mechanism needs to be inserted into the stone turtle's mouth before it can be rotated, otherwise it cannot be moved." ”

Guichen took the fan and said with a smile: "Master, come and see this." Everyone looked down at the surface of the stone pier, but they saw that there were five groove patterns about a finger deep carved on it, and a depression. Yu Xuan looked at the pattern and said, "This pattern seems to be exactly the same as the Qilin Jade. ”

Everyone came to their senses, Xue Qingbi immediately took out the unicorn jade pendant on his body and put it on, but said that everyone was a little stunned for a while when they saw that there were only three jade pendants, and Yao Yuxi suddenly looked at Yuxuan at this time.

"Hey!" Yu Xuan saw her look over, naturally knew what he meant, couldn't help but sigh secretly, took out a piece of jade pendant from his arms, and said: "I only have a jade pendant, this is still one piece away!" Everyone looked at the stone pier silently worried for a while, not knowing what to do next. Yan Ning clenched his right hand into a fist, slammed the punch into his left hand, and said with annoyance: "Hey, I have been planning for many years, but I never thought that I would fall short at this moment, I am really unwilling!"

Seeing this, everyone had to bow their heads although they were unwilling. "Hahahaha!" Guichen laughed and said, "Don't worry, please look!" Guichen pulled out a silver necklace from his neck, and the necklace was strung with the fifth unicorn jade.

"Oops!" Yan Ning was surprised for a moment when he saw him take out the jade pendant, and said, "I can't see it, you kid still has a piece of jade pendant!" Yue said: "This jade pendant was given to me by my mother after I had an accident, but it was just handed over to me for safekeeping." ”

Yan Ning clapped his hands and laughed happily: "Okay! Now that everything is ready, then ask the master to open the bronze door!" Fa Xiang took off the jade pendant and placed it according to the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, leaving only the hole in the middle.

I heard a crisp sound, and the sound of chains twitching from the stone pier, and there was no other movement for a while. As soon as he finished speaking, a soft sound jumped out, and then a loud noise came from behind the bronze door, which seemed to be the sound of metal impacting, deafening, so big that people's eardrums hurt, especially in the valley, the reverberation continued to impact, making everyone dizzy for a while.

Everyone covered their ears with their hands, and after a pause, everyone came back to their senses, it turned out that the copper door finally opened, and a large iron ball with a diameter of about four feet appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the upper part of the iron ball was connected with a large iron chain with the thickness of a fist, and a turbid air flow came to the face, and the strange atmosphere made people can't help but cover their mouths and noses.

Fa Xiang looked at the black bronze door, and couldn't help but say: "It seems that this copper door has not been opened for many years, and it is full of turbidity, so you can't go in directly, and wait for the air flow to dissipate before entering!" Yan Ning leaned against a stone pile and nodded leisurely: "Since I've been waiting for so many years, I don't care about waiting for a while longer." Guichen looked up and down for a while, and asked, "Seniors, please see that this iron ball is so heavy, what do you think is going on?"

Hearing him ask, everyone seemed to be a little puzzled, Yan Ning thought for a while, and finally said: "In my humble opinion, there should be a mechanism behind this copper door connected to an iron bolt, let's twist the mechanism on the stone pier here, drive the iron bolt to twitch, and finally this big iron ball will fall from a high place and smash open the copper door." ”

Guichen clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Mr. Yan is really thoughtful, it shouldn't be wrong to think about it, otherwise why is this iron ball connected to an iron chain." The two were talking, and suddenly found that Chai Ming secretly went to get the jade pendant while a few people were not paying attention.

"Don't move!" Seeing his movements, Fa Xiang hurriedly exclaimed, "You can't take it!" Chen Chen pulled out the peerless knife and threw it out violently, only to hear a tragic wail, and a broken arm flew into the sky. Chen Chen slowly walked in front of Chai Ming and said in a cold voice: "Originally, I wanted to spare your life, but you are looking for death by yourself!"

Everyone stepped forward quickly, but saw that Chai Ming's right arm had been lost, lying in a pool of blood and rolling and wailing. Fa Xianghe sighed: "Why should the master of firewood be like this, this stone pier mechanism is connected to the copper door mechanism, once it is taken out, the iron ball is returned, the copper door is closed, and the iron bolt is stuck in the copper door again, if it is to be opened at that time, I am afraid that there will be trouble again!"

Chai Ming was so painful that he couldn't live to death, his face suddenly turned sharp, and he said fiercely: "People don't destroy the heavens and the earth for themselves, today I am planted in your hands, I admit it!

"Hey!" Yumo looked at him, and couldn't bear to say: "Let's save your life, you don't repent, why do you want to put us in danger?"

Chen Chen's eyes were sharp, and he slapped out a single palm, only to hear a crisp sound, he slapped Chai Ming's bones all over his body with one palm, Chai Ming twitched for a while, and then stopped moving, obviously dying of anger.

"Let's go! It's time to go in!" Chen Chen gathered his sleeves and turned around to walk towards the bronze gate first. "Hey!" everyone saw that Chai Ming was dead, so they had to sigh and follow.

Several people followed Chen Chen into the bronze door, the air in the door flowed, and suddenly the light flashed, it turned out that the oil lamp on the stone wall in the cave was lit from the door to the inside in turn, this sudden change, everyone was surprised for a while.

"Huh?" Yao Yuxi asked in surprise, "What's going on, why is the light suddenly on?" Dao Yan explained: "This is the ......" Guichen interjected: "This is the ever-bright lamp, which is said to be made of mermaid grease as lamp oil, which can burn for thousands of years." Hui Ying exclaimed: "Can it really be immortal for a thousand years? So powerful?" Guichen laughed and said: "How can there be an oil lamp in this world that will not be extinguished for a thousand years?" It's just that the ancients made a mystery, in fact, this is just an ordinary oil lamp, this everlasting lamp is divided into two layers, the inner layer is the same as the lamp we use on weekdays, but the wick is soaked in vinegar, the outer layer holds water, used to cool the oil lamp, the junction of the inner and outer layers is smeared with a kind of white thing, this kind of thing will ignite the wick when it encounters the air current, thereby igniting the everlasting lamp, once the door is closed, there is no airflow The everlasting lamp will automatically go out. ”

Huan Ying said with a look of adoration: "You know so much! Guichen said with a smile: "I am free to familiarize myself with all kinds of anecdotes, which I also stumbled upon in an ancient book, and today is also the first time I have seen it." ”

Everyone from light to dark, and then to the bright lights, for a while the eyes can not adapt, a few people just finished speaking, suddenly a burst of golden light into the eyes, everyone's eyes lit up, into the eyes of the gold and silver piled up into the wall, pearl jewelry boxes are arranged neatly, all kinds of rare jade antiques are piled up, next to a shelf there are many blades, books.

It turns out that the treasure of the unicorn really has its thing, this stone cave is built in the belly of the mountain, which is very spacious, almost 20 zhang square circle, there are countless rare antiques inside, the scrolls of calligraphy and painting are piled up like a mountain, there is really a gold brick for the city, the spirit of the silver block to build the mountain.

Everyone saw so much gold, silver and jewelry, and was surprised and delighted for a while, here and there, everyone present was a well-informed person, even the youngest people were also from a rich family, but so, they had never seen so much property, looking at the appearance of everyone crazy, it seemed that in front of the treasure, this crowd was no different from ordinary people.

If the strange place is that there is an alchemy table near the south corner, a huge Dan furnace, the Dan furnace has been covered with dust, obviously has not been used for many years, Guichen looked around, came to the alchemy table, only to see a gourd on the platform, a dilapidated book.

Guichen brushed off the dust, only to see Li Yi's notes written on the book cover, Yumo saw that he was not like others, so he came over and asked: "What happened?" Guichen handed the book over and opened it slowly, only to see the past of the Li family written in the book: "The rest of his life was in the Han Emperor Wen, since he was a child, he was instructed by a famous teacher, and practiced a body of martial arts. Yu was framed first, and then was abolished a body of martial arts, the treasure was also taken away, Yu Ben was disheartened and decided to die, who knew that there was a fate to meet a strange person, and gave Yu a high-grade heavenly immortal recipe, Yu practiced for many years from it to create the Taiyi Heart Sutra, since then the heart is like stopping water, and there is no wave, so he will take back the treasure and ban it here, set up a formation to reject outsiders, and from then on stay away from the world, free from the world!"

Yumo looked at Guichen and said, "It seems that this senior of the Li family is also a person who has gone through hardships!" Guichen saw her smile like a flower, and suddenly felt a feeling in his heart, and said with a smile: "Aunt Yumo is so good-looking, everything is right!" Yumo listened to his praise, his heart was very happy, nodded his forehead, and said angrily: "You! After going out for a while, you have learned to be flamboyant." Guichen suddenly grabbed her hand and chuckled: "Where are you, when did you see me tell a lie?" Yumo glanced at him and said with a smile: "Okay!

Suddenly, I heard a cheer from there, and everyone looked over, only to see Xue Qingbi holding a long sword in his hand, and said to everyone: "This sword is really a divine weapon!" It turned out that he came to the side of the shelf early in the morning, and looked through the books were all astrological divination. Lined up and the like, only a few blades next to him aroused interest, and when he pulled it out, he saw that it was rusted, but a long sword with a crocodile skin sheath was placed at the bottom of the shelf, he picked it up and took a look, the long sword was shining in his hand, although it was still bright as new after thousands of years, there was no trace of rust, and there was a sword groan between the waves, it seemed that it was indeed a good sword.

Chen Chen hugged his fists and smiled: "Congratulations to Brother Xue for winning the Divine Sword!" Dao Yan said: "The Divine Soldier is happy to meet the new master, it is really gratifying, I don't know if the Divine Soldier has a name?" Xue Qingbi took the long sword horizontally, pinched a sword trick in his left hand, and slowly slashed across the sword body, only to see the word "Long Yuan" engraved on the sword, and frowned and asked: "Could it be that this sword is called Long Yuan?"

"Amitabha!" Dao Yan said: "It turns out that this sword is actually a legendary divine weapon!" Yisu was shocked when he heard this: "Could it be the legendary divine sword cast by Ou Yezi in Qinxi Mountain in the Spring and Autumn Period?" ”

Yao Yuxi's swordsmanship is very strong, and he naturally loves swords, so he was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly asked: "What's so strange about this sword?" Yisu smiled and saluted her, and said: "Legend has it that this sword is made of Cishan Tieying mixed with black iron, and it took several years to succeed, and it is indestructible and extremely sharp, and it is a divine weapon pursued by people who have practiced swords for generations!" Yao Yuxi clapped his hands and said happily: "It turned out to be such a rare sword!"

Xue Qingbi is obsessed with swordsmanship, naturally he has also heard of this kind of Ji Wen, at this moment for the first time to get a sword, his heart is extraordinary, I saw the tip of his sword pick up a gold brick next to him, gently stroked, the gold brick was suddenly broken into two, picked up half of the gold brick and looked at it, the cutting surface was as smooth as a mirror, it seemed that it was really a sword that cut gold and jade. Seeing that the purpose of this trip had been achieved, Xue Qingbi couldn't help asking, "Brother Chen, I have obtained what I asked for, I don't know what about you?"

Chen Chen frowned and was speechless, and looked at it for a long time before saying: "There doesn't seem to be anything like martial arts cheats here, I don't know if the rumors are true!

That Guichen and Yumo looked at the gourd next to them, and for a moment they were inexplicable, Yumo asked: "Do you know what's in the gourd?" Guichen shook his head and said, "I haven't opened it, let's look at it together!" Yumo took the gourd, only to feel that the hand is quite heavy, the gourd is made of metal, although it is dusty, but slightly erased the fine dust, it is black and purple, Yumo said happily: "It's amazing, this gourd is actually a purple gold gourd, which must contain an excellent elixir." Guichen grabbed Yumo's hand and asked, "Oh? and this?" Yumo has been with him for many years, and he has never seen him like this, so he was a little overwhelmed for a while, so he had to change the topic and ask: "Is there a record of gourds in the book?" Two grains of Disha Pill, Tiangang Pill can be used to break menstruation and renew, reshape the body, and increase the power of one Jiazi; Disha Pill can relieve all kinds of poisons, bring the dead back to life, and take it to increase the power for 30 years. ”

"Oops!" Yumo was suddenly overjoyed and said happily: "If the record is correct, then your old illness can be cured!" Guichen took a deep breath, calmed down for a long time, and then said with a smile: "We finally didn't come here in vain." As he spoke, he poured out the elixir, and a smell like musk came to his nose, and he saw that the three pills were only the size of his thumb, one red and two green, which seemed to be the two pills contained in the book. Guichen secretly took out a cyan pill and handed it to Yumo, and said in a low voice: "You give the pill to Yuxuan, I'm afraid that his injury will worsen." ”

Yumo looked at him in a daze, a smile gradually appeared on his face, and his expression was strange for a while, and finally said, "Okay! Guichen shook his head slowly, smiled and said, "Aunt Yumo, you have taken care of me for many years, and a mere pill is not enough to repay you." Yumo heard him suddenly talk about this, and said: "For so many years, I have been willing to take care of you, don't you understand?" Guichen already knew her intentions, and said at this moment: "Aunt Yumo, if this pill can really save my life, let's talk about other things, okay?" Yumo saw tears in his eyes, knowing that he had been depressed for many years, and was even more worried that if he couldn't cure his old disease, he was afraid that he would be burdened with himself, so he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and then nodded again and again, and said, "Okay!

Just as the two were talking, they suddenly heard Yan Ning pointing to a stone wall in front of him and said, "Everyone, please look at this stone wall!"

Everyone looked up, only to see a stone wall in front of them is very smooth, there is nothing on it, only a six-foot square house word, everyone came to the front, only to see another line of small words next to the word house, but it is "heaven and man are one, broken void!"

Everyone didn't know what it meant when they faced this word, and they all frowned and pondered.

Yu Xuan looked at Shi Bi and suddenly laughed and said: "Heaven and man are one, shattering the void? It turns out that the martial arts cheats pursued by the world are actually going to die? This word is really ridiculous!" Everyone present has more or less killed and injured people for the martial arts cheats in the treasure, and only then did they come back to their senses, disappointed for a while, and really ashamed and regretful.

Guichen tied the purple gold gourd around his waist, walked to the stone wall, looked at it for a long time, and suddenly said: "Maybe the martial arts of the ancestor of the Li family have entered the Heavenly Dao and have already broken through the sky and soared, how can we ordinary people understand the realm of our predecessors!"

"Hahahaha!" Dao Yan suddenly laughed and said, "It seems that this is a joke made by another senior with us! Looking at the words on this stone wall, the surroundings are not extremely flat, and there are faint traces, I think someone has smoothed the handwriting, and I don't want us to know." Although Yan Ning was displeased, he still waved his hand and said, "In that case, let's not want this martial arts cheat!

As soon as Yan Ning's words came out, everyone looked at each other, and they all stood still, it turned out that although everyone came here for their own purposes, whether it was gold and silver goods, or divine weapons, or martial arts secrets, they couldn't get rid of this unicorn treasure after all.

"Amitabha!" Dao Yan suddenly said, "Fellow donors, since we have already come here, we must not return empty-handed!"

Chen Chen cleaned up his mood and snorted: "Sick Tiger Monk, the reason why I still keep you is to use you to control King Yan and end this war that has lasted for almost four years, not to let you get the treasure." ”

Dao Yan shook his head and said: "Can you listen to what Lao Wei said, and now the imperial court is only in the hands of a group of corrupt Confucians, how can the world talk about long-term peace and stability?

When everyone heard this, they all scoffed, and Chen Chen sneered and said: "Old fellow, you think wrong! If we talk about high-ranking officials, we really don't have much interest, and if we talk about martial arts, what do I want from practicing the top martial arts in the world." ”

Dao Yan said suddenly: "I won't hide it from you today, a few days ago, Lao Wei got the news that Nanjing City is empty, and almost all the soldiers have been sent to the north of Huaishui, and now as long as we have this batch of treasures, we can recruit a group of troops to attack Nanjing, and the world will be in the hands at that time, and no one can help but surrender." Chen Chen sneered when he heard this: "Old fellow, you have planned quite carefully! Hmph! Several people have achieved their goals, and I will close the bronze door again in a while, and you will not be able to open it again, old fellow! Your wishful thinking will come to naught after all!"

At that time, the lights were bright and dark, and the faces of the people looked even more cloudy. Dao Yan said: "Ladies and gentlemen, now that His Royal Highness King Yan is ready, and Zhu Yunwen has no chance of winning, why don't you vote for the Lord as soon as possible?"

As soon as Dao Yan's words came out, several people looked at him and laughed, and after a while, Chen Chen said: "Sick Tiger Monk, even if you count your two apprentices today, there are only three of them, and they are weak, they are already turtles in the urn, as long as they kill you, King Yan's defeat is decided!"

"That's good!" Xue Qingbi also smiled when she heard this: "Master Dao Yan, if you are one against three, do you have a chance of winning?" Dao Yan shook his head, but his expression was shocked, and he said loudly: "As a minister, I should be loyal to duty, share worries and solve problems for the main family, and today the old man is broken bones, and he must fight to the end!"

Chen Chen's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he shouted: "Catch him first!" As he spoke, he flew over, slapped it with one palm, Dao Yan slapped it backpalm, and a gust of air collided, and the property in the hole was suddenly agitated and scattered. Yan Ning waved his right hand, three golden needles shot out, Xue Qingbi also drew his sword, Dao Yan turned around, waved his palm, and the golden needle was suddenly blown away, and then he met it and slapped it on Xue Qingbi's wrist.

It seems that Dao Yan's martial arts are profound, and he will not be defeated for a while, but he resists left and right, looking extremely embarrassed, and he is obviously defeated by the three of them.

Dao Yan suddenly took two steps back, stepped back more than a foot, and slapped his palms fiercely, it seems that at this moment he knows that there is no chance of winning the fight, and he plans to fight with them for internal strength! Chen Chen and Xue Qingbi saw him retreat, and they knew his intentions, but both of them were masters in the world, so how could they give him a chance.

The two of them stood out and slapped their strange palms towards Dao Yan, and for a while, the four palms struck each other, and a peerless huge force collided, and the three of them shook their bodies at the same time, and they actually stood still, Dao Yan only felt a burst of qi and blood, the blood veins on the left were soft and cold, as if they were in an ice vault, and the right side was like being repeatedly cut by a sharp knife The meridians; Chen Chen and Xue Qingbi suddenly felt that the other party's internal force was endless, like a soft shield in front of them, and it was difficult to move forward.

It turned out that Chen Chen's practice of the Northern Spiritual Skill was extremely cold, and Xue Qingbi's internal force was domineering, and the two internal forces repeatedly rubbed the meridians of Dao Yan's body, making his hands sore and weak, as if he had worked for many days, and he wanted to fall to the ground and rest.

Yan Ning saw that the three of them were motionless, his left hand threw out the golden needle, and as soon as his feet moved, the person was already close to the three of them, and his right hand slapped out from between Chen Chen and Xue Qingbi, and slapped a palm on Dao Yan's chest. Dao Yan was already opposed to the two of them, but he had no time to dodge the sudden attack, so he had to stand up and accept his palm.

"You ......" Dao Yan's throat was sweet, a fishy smell filled his mouth, his body frustrated, and he took a step back. Chen Chen and Xue Qingbi glanced at each other, and struck hard, Dao Yan's body frustrated again, only to feel that the meridians in his body were about to disperse, and he was already unable to resist the strength of the three people, and he was about to die under the hands of the three people.

Dao Yan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and shouted loudly, "Splendid!"
