Chapter Twenty-Four: Pretending to be a Ghost
"Brother, they're all gone!" Xu Mu bumped Feng Yuan's arm, looked at the stone road behind him, the bright passage, and could almost see it at a glance, how could several people disappear silently?
Could it be that there was a secret door that could be turned, which he and Feng Yuan hadn't noticed just now?
The courier brother was just about to walk back, but Feng Yuan grabbed his back collar with a solemn face, "Don't walk around by yourself." "At such times, it must be safest to stay by your side.
Xu Mu was dragged so much that he almost fell into Feng Yuan's arms, he turned his head suspiciously, looked at Feng Yuan, and wrote clearly in his eyes:
Brother, you're such a big person, you won't be afraid of the dark, right?
"Be careful, what if there is some secret passage here, what if you fall down?" Feng Yuan calmly ignored Xu Mu's questioning, grabbed his wrist, and motioned for him to walk behind him.
"It's okay, I'll go ahead and show you the way. Xu Mu puffed up his chest, and couldn't wait to tell Feng Yuanming that he had a ninth-level fierce beast on his backpack, as a meat shield or something, the blood groove was deep, and ordinary monsters were crushed in minutes, and the insurance coefficient was still quite high.
"Do you know the gossip of Qigong?" Feng Yuan looked at a certain Taoist descendant with a calm face.
Xu Mu: ..................
I only know a little bit of celebrity gossip.
I know I can't count on you!" Feng Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked around calmly.
Xu Mu looked at Feng Yuan, who seemed to know everything, and also looked around with his movements.
This is a passage made entirely of giant blue bricks, which looks straight and straight, about 40 meters long and 3 meters high, and when the murals appear, the passage widens slightly, about 2.5 meters. From the floor to the walls to the ceiling, there are almost all large green bricks of the same color and size, which looks regular and oppressive.
In order to seek a realistic effect, the bronze lantern on one side of the wall not only contains a light bulb, but also holds a real oil lamp on the top of the phoenix's head, and the milky white wick is the thickness of an adult's little finger, but it is not lit yet.
The two sides of the shallow carving of the mural more than one person high, the corners are decorated with moire, just now they looked all the way, and did not find anything wrong on the mural.
The blue bricks of the ceiling and floor are divided into two types: plain and carved with a clumpy dragon pattern, which are inlaid one by one, corresponding to the top and bottom, and covering the entire passage.
Xu Mu checked three or four floor tiles decorated with dragon patterns one after another, only to find that those patterns were not the same, opening his eyes, closing his eyes, looking up, looking back, almost all of them had different expressions.
If it's really Qimen Dunjia, then the most suspicious thing is these floor tiles, right?
However, where are the eight gates of opening, resting, life, injury, Du, scenery, death, and shock?
After Feng Yuan looked at it for a few seconds, he calmly took a step, Xu Mu hurriedly followed behind, holding the unicorn beads on his backpack, and was ready to call his husband to come out to help as soon as there was a stir.
The two walked about twenty steps, and Feng Yuan stopped, "Did you notice any changes?"
"No ......" Xu Mu was about to shake his head, his head suddenly stopped, they had walked at least eight or nine meters just now, but the distance between him and Feng Yuan to the entrance of the passage had not been shortened at all!
it!
This is not scientific!
Hallucination?
Xu Mu stared at the empty passage and was puzzled.
"Try again. Feng Yuan grabbed Xu Mu's wrist and walked forward for another thirty or so steps, they were far from the end of the passage where they stopped just now, and they were still close to fifty meters away from the entrance.
They walked another thirty or so steps, as if they were on a treadmill, and the distance from the entrance never changed.
"Otherwise, let's try to continue walking over there?" Xu Mu pointed behind him and said to Feng Yuan.
Feng Yuan nodded, and the two of them turned around and walked to the location where they had just found that everyone was missing. This time, it was easy to shorten the distance.
"It looks like we're just going to have to move on. Feng Yuan raised his eyebrows, glanced back at the entrance, reached out to hook Xu Mu's neck, and strode forward.
Xu Mu blinked his eyes, and always felt that something was wrong.
As they were walking forward, a floor tile under their feet suddenly turned over without warning, and the two of them fell down at the same time!
The moment he stepped into the air, Xu Mu subconsciously hugged Feng Yuan, and his waist was also tightly hugged by Feng Yuan's arm.
Below it seemed to be a fully enclosed slide-like passage, so black that you couldn't see your fingers, zigzag all the way down, and a few minutes later, Xu Mu and Feng Yuan fell into a square stone room. The stone room is still lit with the phoenix bird lantern in the passage, but the light is more dim, and it is estimated that the wattage is not enough.
Brother, don't you know the gossip of Qigong?
How did we fall?
Xu Mu glared at Feng Yuan.
Feng Yuan raised his eyebrows calmly, "I don't understand, that's why I asked you if you understand." ”
Xu Mu: ..................
Who just now looked like he was in control of the whole situation? Is it really good to take it for granted?
The stone chamber was empty, about ten meters square, with nothing but the ever-bright lights on the walls on either side and the hole they had slipped into.
Xu Mu and Feng Yuan looked around and didn't find anything like an exit.
"It seems that you can't get out?" Xu Mu anxiously took out his mobile phone and looked at it, but there was no signal.
"There's always a way, take a break. Feng Yuan motioned for Xu Mu to sit down and rest for a while, and not to be impatient.
The two of them removed some slight abrasions on their elbows and were basically uninjured. Xu Mu took out two band-aids with a cat pattern from the small pocket of his backpack and prepared to help Feng Yuan put them on.
Feng Yuan looked at the grinning blue fat man with disgust, and resolutely refused it to appear on him.
Xu Mu had to stick one on his knee and one on his elbow.
Feng Yuan looked at Xu Mu, a blue fat man with a smile on his left knee and right elbow, and nodded meaninglessly, "Yes, it's quite suitable for you." ”
Xu Mu: ..................
"The tail feathers of the two birds are not the same. Xu Mu looked at the only two permanent lamps in the stone room boredly, and suddenly found that their nine tail feathers were curled upwards and downwards.
"The ever-bright lights in the passage just now are all pointing upwards. Xu Mu said to Feng Yuan with certainty.
"Then try it. Feng Yuan dragged Xu Mu to stand up and walked towards the ever-bright lantern with the tail feather pattern curling downward.
Feng Yuan stretched out his hand and pressed the tail feathers and other positions of the phoenix-shaped lantern one by one, and when the phoenix bird grabbed the claws of the wall, a crisp birdsong suddenly sounded from the stone room.
A yellow bird with nine tail feathers rose from the lantern and rushed to the top of the stone chamber with its wings outstretched. It circled around the stone room, folded its wings, and landed proudly on the oil lamp holder of the ever-bright lamp, tilting its head slightly, blinking its empty eyes, as if examining the person in front of it.
It is about the size of a peacock, looks like the legendary phoenix, swallow-jawed chicken beak, front and back of the deer, snake head and fish tail, dragon turtle back, nine tail feathers are brilliant, flashing with dots of brilliance.
"Phoenix?" Xu Mu's eyes widened, and he raised his head to look at the bird.
Feng Yuan stared at the bird with interest, "The phoenix is five, the five-colored and red is the red bird, the yellow is the eagle chick (hu), the green one is luan, the purple one is the cormorant (yuezhuo), and the white one is the red bird." This yellow one is supposed to be an eagle chick. ”
"Eagles?"
"Zhuangzi Qiushui" said that the husband and the eagle are born in the South China Sea and fly in the North Sea. ”
To put it bluntly, it's just a willful picky eater in Phoenix!
Xu Mu nodded suddenly in realization.
The bird raised its tail feathers and said in a loud voice, "Human, disturb my eternal sleep, and my sin deserves death." ”
The light around it suddenly appeared, and a row of yellow tail feathers stretched straight into arrows, whistling out, as fast as lightning, and raindrops shot in the direction of Feng Yuan and Xu Mu.
Xu Mu took a step forward anxiously, blocking in front of Feng Yuan, and at this time, he couldn't hide it, and patted the Qilin Bead, "Sprite, come out quickly." ”
The four-horned golden deer jumped out, raised its hooves and swept out a barrier of golden light, protecting Xu Mu and Feng Yuan.
The yellow feathered arrows hit the golden translucent barrier, like rain falling into a deep pool, exploding specks of brilliance, and then disappearing into nothingness.
The bird chirped, flapped its wings, and all its tail feathers turned dark yellow, "brush, brush", and a dark yellow feather arrow attacked the golden barrier erected by Fu Zhu again.
"Smack", the feather arrow slammed into the barrier, striking out a spider-like crack that spread out. The entire golden light barrier glass-like explosion fell to the ground and dissipated without a trace.
The feather arrow was castrated, and it hit Fu Zhu directly.
The coercion of the ancient divine beasts of the eagle and phoenix bird came with the feather arrows pouring into the sky, weighing more than a thousand catties, and the husbands screamed, unable to move, and saw that they were about to be hit by the feather arrows.
At the last moment, the cold wind suddenly rose, and two blue lightning flashed out from behind Xu Mu, one left and one right, respectively, slashing at the feather arrow and the eagle in the air!
In an instant, the form reversed.
Fu Zhu turned into golden light, quickly avoided the Qilin Pearl, the phoenix bird screamed miserably, and exploded into several yellow lights, and the thousand rays of light pierced Xu Mu almost couldn't open his eyes, so he had to raise his hand to cover it.
When the yellow light dissipated, the eagle in the air had disappeared, and two yellow runes fell in mid-air, and in the middle of the rune paper was a bright red cinnabar outline a bird with its head fluttering its wings, which was just cut in two.
Spells?
Xu Mu stared at the two runes on the ground in disbelief, the eagle attracted by the talisman could actually defeat the ninth-level husband, what level did the Taoist priest who drew this talisman have?
Also, where did the electric light come from just now? Xu Mu turned his head suspiciously, Feng Yuan shrugged his shoulders innocently, and pointed to the position where Fu Zhu was standing just now, "What was that just now?"
"Uh......" Xu Mu scratched his ears, thinking about how to explain, the wall directly opposite the two made a "click" sound, and the stone wall retreated to both sides like an automatic door, revealing a dark passageway.
