Chapter 93: Liu Ajiao (9)
Liu Xiaohua walked in the front, followed by Cheng Zhengzhi, and finally Fusheng.
She cautiously walked around the dried corpses standing in the aisle. The smell of the corpses kept sticking into her nose.
When she finally walked out and stood at the front of the team, Liu Xiaohua found that Cheng Zhengzhi was still behind.
He's looting the dead people. collected a lot of them and stuffed them all into his arms. If you really can't stuff it, you can use the hem to pocket it, and then tie the corners of your clothes around your waist, looking like a pregnant woman from a distance.
In the end, he probably saw that the sword on someone's back was good, and he had to reach out to take it, and Fusheng stopped him, "The spirit weapon is no better than other things, and outsiders can't touch it." ”
He was a little disappointed. Reluctantly, he came out and asked, "I see there's a gem on that sword." It must be worth a lot of money. ”
"A spiritual weapon is the infusion of one's own spirit into a refined artifact. Then the thing becomes a place for the spirit. If you take it without permission, it will defend itself. Fusheng said.
Liu Xiaohua only knew about some strange medicinal herbs and the medicinal properties of strange beasts, and Fusheng was much more knowledgeable than her in many other aspects.
When she wanted to surpass that group of people, Liu Xiaohua thought that something strange would happen.
But in the end, nothing happened. After walking less than seven steps forward, I realized that I had reached the end of the road.
Although it may seem that there is an endless road ahead, in fact, it is just a painting painted on the wall.
Cheng Zhengzhi was dumbfounded, and reached out in disbelief and touched it, it was indeed the wall that was not wrong, "How can it be so similar?" ”
In front of the painting is a well-hidden intersection.
When Liu Xiaohua stood here, and then looked back at the dead monks, she felt a different feeling. Who would have thought that after months of struggle, the place where they finally died would be only a little distance away from the exit.
Liu Xiaohua thought about it, why could the three of her get out, but these people couldn't? There is only one possibility, and these people used the Spirit. And she and Fusheng and Cheng Zhengzhi did not.
But I have to sigh that the people who designed these things are thoughtful.
The first carnivorous tree is to prevent ordinary people from entering by mistake, if a monk with a spiritual body encounters an attack by a carnivorous tree, he will definitely use his spirit to defend himself, and it is impossible to be hit by it.
The second long path is to trap the monks. The monks were doubly vigilant after the sudden attack of the carnivorous tree, and it was inevitable to urge the spirit to protect themselves at all times, but as long as the monk activated the aura, he would be trapped in the long path until the spiritual power was exhausted, and finally trapped in the same place.
If it weren't for the Floating Life to stop it, I'm afraid the three of them would be trapped here like these people now.
However, it is certainly not for nothing that these dead monks will leave words on the wall, and he did so, which shows that Guozong did not only send their team, but there must be other teams trying to enter the Mausoleum of the Young Emperor one after another. I don't know if anyone has succeeded.
At this time, Cheng Zhengzhi suddenly shouted "Ah", "Ghost! ”
Liu Xiaohua looked up, and immediately saw that after entering the fork in the road, she was faced with a large wall, and there was a miserable white human face on the wall, hanging in mid-air.
Seeing this thing suddenly, Liu Xiaohua was so frightened that she almost screamed subconsciously.
She took a big step back and crashed into the floating life. Fusheng reacted very quickly and reached out to help her. Although he looked sick, his hands were very dry and strong. Liu Xiaohua also calmed down a lot, and saw clearly through the light that the head was emerging from a very lush grass. Looking at the face, it seems to be a young man, with his eyes closed, not angry, and the texture of his skin is strange.
She made a calm appearance and said, "It's like a dead man." Don't scream! ”
Cheng Zhengzhi suddenly said a little sneeringly, "Really?" It's too scary to die in this position, how did you do it? ”
Liu Xiaohua took the lighting beads from Fusheng's hand and stepped forward to check.
It was found that the head did not stick out of the grass at all, but grew on the wall.
It has roots on its back and is deeply rooted in the wall. Many vines grew out of its head and crawled all over the walls. The weed-looking branches and leaves on the entire wall are part of it, and if you ignore its appearance, it looks more like a mutant vine.
When Liu Xiaohua approached, her eyes, which had been closed, suddenly opened. Before she could react, Fusheng pulled her back.
The head opened its eyes, its human-like eyes gurgling, and finally locked on these people, and it made a very muffled "woo" sound. There was a 'bang' behind the three people, and the way back was blocked.
"Trap?" Cheng Zhengzhi exclaimed.
Fusheng circled around the thing. "It could be a door." The fork in the road leads to here.
At this time, the head made another "woo" sound.
Liu Xiaohua saw that it had no intention of attacking people, so she had the courage to pick open its branches and leaves, and found that a small piece of copper wall was exposed under the cover of branches and leaves, which was engraved with intricate patterns. There is a crack in the middle of the copper wall, which looks like a large door. This head grows on the door.
Liu Xiaohua had never seen anything like this, and there was no mention of a vine with a human face in the codex.
Fusheng frowned and pondered, and said: "Flowers and trees should be cultivated into human shapes, very slowly, as little as a thousand years, and as many as ten thousand years. Looking at its appearance, it must have been thousands of years old, and the Mausoleum of the Young Emperor was not there at that time. It must have been moved to the Mausoleum of the Young Emperor later. It is not unprecedented. ”
"This is a vine ?!! that is becoming a sperm." Liu Xiaohua stared at the head curiously.
She had only heard of those who had cultivated into a refined human form, and had seen the withered grass that had completely turned into a human, but she had never seen the process of another species becoming a human with her own eyes. She herself imagined countless times how an animal or plant could become a human. But I never thought I could see such an intuitive scene. I didn't expect it to be this way.
The head had been looking between the three of them, and sometimes the face was very distorted. Liu Xiaohua felt that it might want to make an expression, but the expression on its face was not like a human, it was controlled by a lot of coordinated muscles, and it moved harmoniously and naturally, so it looked extremely hideous and terrifying.
"Uhhh
It opens its mouth wide. A "gurgling" sound came out of his throat, as if to express something.
Liu Xiaohua thought of the black skin, so that she was not very afraid of it. In fact, compared to it, the black skin is lucky, it has only been a long time, and it already has a certain amount of wisdom, and it can speak (it can be regarded as talking), and has a body. And this vine has been thousands of years, and it still can't speak, and it has no body.
"Do you understand what we're saying?" Liu Xiaohua asked it.
Its eyes turned to Liu Xiaohua.
"If you understand, close your eyes twice."
But the other party did not respond, just made a rhythmic "clucking" sound. The mouth grows very large. Shark-like fangs are exposed.
It is supposed to be not intelligent yet, and this gurgling sound has no special meaning, just like animals sometimes shake their hair.
"Do you have to say the right password for it to open the door?" Cheng Zhengzhi muttered in a low voice: "Do you know the password? "Ask Fusheng.
Fusheng frowned and shook his head.
"Or burn it." Cheng Zhengzhi said.
"Look around." Fusheng said.
Liu Xiaohua looked up, and after entering the fork in the road, it was already like entering the room, with walls on all sides, and these walls were all layers of vines, and I don't know how much. Many of the tiny tips, which had not yet been clinged, were like snakes watching the movement here, writhing slightly from time to time. As long as the three of them have a bad head, they will be strangled immediately.
Now the three of them are trapped in the secret room, all surrounded by vines. If you want to kill it, it's best to make sure that it can be solved in an instant.
Cheng Zhengzhi looked at the young vines that writhed slightly like snakes, and felt a chill.
"Uhh
At this time, the vines in the room began to tremble, a bit like they were blown by the wind, making a rustling sound. There were several outermost vine branches, off the wall, hovering over the heads of the three men.
With these movements, several white bones fell out from under the vines.
Liu Xiaohua found that the vines were layered on top of each other, and the thick layer was full of human corpses, some of which had turned into white bones, strangled and pressed at the bottom by the intertwined thick vines, and some were just about to rot and be nailed to the outermost layer.
I don't know how many people died here, and they were used as nourishment by vines.
It was only when the vine branches on the surface were moved away that the bones were rediscovered.
Cheng Zhengzhi looked at the dead bodies and couldn't help but scolded in shock, "Men and women." ”
Whether it is the rags of cloth or the magic utensils that have been dropped with them, it all shows that the origins of these people are different. It seems that over the years, no one knows about this place on the surface, but secretly, neither other sects nor the Holy Emperor of the National Sect have given up.
At this time, the head let out another "woo-" several times, each time shorter and shorter.
Suddenly, the vines began to move. It's like an earthquake, and all the qiē is moving. It seems that if you don't want to find a way, all three of them will die here.
At this time, Fusheng didn't know what he was thinking, and stood quietly in front of the head.
At this time, Liu Xiaohua saw that the head's mouth opened again, if it couldn't do something that met its requirements this time, these vines would immediately strangle everyone and turn them into nutrients.
At this moment, Fusheng stretched out a finger and placed it in the mouth with the head wide open.
The head immediately closed its mouth and made a gurgling sound, its eyes rolling wildly, and its face twisting and turning. Then, all of them came to a standstill. All the vines froze, as if they were being fixed.
The moment Fusheng pulled out his finger, the whole person almost fell soft, and Liu Xiaohua hurriedly went up to support him.
Then, the whole chamber began to tremble. The vines writhed and retreated, and soon a large stone wall emerged from across the head.
This surprised Liu Xiaohua, who thought that the door was on the other side of the head. If someone wants to break into here, they must be fooled like Liu Xiaohua, thinking that the one behind the head is the door, and trying their best to face a door that can never be opened. I didn't know that the real door was on the other side, and it looked like it was just a stone wall.
After a few dozen seconds, the head paused for a moment, no longer making a gurgling sound, but it was only quiet for a minute, and soon it let out a sharp whistle, and its vines formed a hugging strand in the air, and rushed towards the stone wall.
The stone door creaked, and it seemed to move back a little. But it's not obvious.
But the vines didn't stop. kept ramming into the stone gate, and after dozens of times, the door finally opened wide.
"Let's go." Fusheng said briefly, and his face was very bad. Liu Xiaohua hurriedly handed him over to Cheng Zhengzhi to carry, took the lead with a hoe, and walked into the door.
When I entered the door, I found that this stone was amazingly large. And only the surface layer is the texture and color of the stone, and the back layer is more like some kind of metal. "Dead iron," Fusheng said.
As soon as he said this, Liu Xiaohua immediately knew that he was not talking about a meteor stone, but a strange material recorded in the codex, this material has the property of sucking spirits, no matter how much spiritual power hits it, it will be sucked clean, and many monks are dead because of this thing, so it is called Death Iron.
This also shows that this is a secret room that is absolutely impossible to be opened by spiritual power. But if you don't use spiritual power, no one can open this door, and as far as the human body is concerned, no one can push such a big and heavy piece.
Wait for the three of them to go in. The vines wrapped around the large rings on the stone wall and began to creak and pull the whole large stone back.
After a while, the piece of iron was moved back into its place.
Suddenly, Yiqiē fell into defenseless darkness. Liu Xiaohua subconsciously shouted: "Cheng Zhengzhi! But no one answered her. She hurriedly went to get the lighting bead, she had just used it up, and she should have stuffed it in her pocket. But after rummaging through his body for a long time, he didn't find it. Fortunately, at this time, I heard the faint voice of Fusheng, "This way." ”
Liu Xiaohua hurriedly stretched out her hand in front like a blind man, turned around, and groped in his direction. But after only taking two steps, he tripped over something, fell to the ground, and his head didn't know where he fell, and he didn't recover for a long time.
"How are you?" The sound of floating panting was very loud, and the sound was like a gossamer. He seemed to want to come over to her.
"Don't move. Don't move! "No one can see anyone here, and if you miss it, it's even worse." What about the illuminated beads? ”
There was a sound of clothes grinding in the direction of Fusheng.
After a long time, there was no light. "I can't find it." Fusheng smiled bitterly, "Maybe I fell somewhere when I came over." ”
Liu Xiaohua hurriedly said, "Don't be afraid! Stay there and don't move. I'm coming to you. ”
Fusheng listened, the little girl was obviously afraid, but she was still comforting him, and she couldn't help but smile. I don't know, she herself knows that she is strong to protect others, which makes others very sad.
Even though he was still a child, he tried very hard to be like an elder and an adult, trying to be relied on by others. He stayed in the dark, smiled very shallowly, slightly tired, leaned against the wall and said, "Okay." I'm not afraid. I'm here waiting for you to find you. ”
Liu Xiaohua was relieved when she heard him answer, but she didn't dare to use the spirit casually, nor did she dare to call the fire, so she could only lie on the ground and grope in the direction of the floating life little by little in the dark.
The thing that tripped her was soft to the touch, and she didn't know what it was, and she didn't dare to imagine it, for fear that it would scare herself to death.
Just as she had climbed over that obstacle, she sudden
