Chapter 42: Underground
After Luo Pingfan opened his eyes, he saw that the two of them were in a secret room that was five meters high and about fifteen meters long on all four sides. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
On the wall they faced was an iron gate, which, as far as could be seen from the rusty surface above, had been there for a long time. After that, Luo Pingfan saw that there was nothing special about the iron gate, so he looked to the side of the door and found that there was an iron tool rack next to the iron gate, with a shovel on it, a pickaxe, and tools such as hammers.
Seeing this, Luo Pingfan turned his head away again, and found that there were no more items in this secret room except for the hanging lamps on the walls on both sides and the things he had seen before.
At this time, the old man suddenly said, "Let's go." Then he walked towards the large iron door in the chamber.
When Luo Pingfan, who was behind, saw it, he hurriedly followed.
After that, with a series of "crunch ......", the iron door was pushed open by the old man of the wine.
Just when Luo Pingfan thought that the old man was about to walk in, he saw that he suddenly shot two spiritual qi on both sides of the door frame.
"Alright, you can go," said the old man.
Luo Pingfan pursed his lips in the back, and said in his heart that this is like a prison, as for placing so many protective measures!
At this time, Luo Pingfan saw that the old man had already walked out seven or eight steps, so he hurriedly chased after him.
In this passage, the two of them did not walk for long, and Luo Pingfan found that the surrounding walls had somehow changed from neat stone bricks to stone and earth, which seemed to be a hole that had just been dug out.
After Luo Pingfan saw it, although he was puzzled in his heart, he didn't ask questions immediately, but continued to follow the old man who was drinking.
Gradually, Luo Pingfan found that the further back he went, the wider the hole became, and even some places were simply natural cracks, and there were many stones on the ground, and the speed of the two slowed down. Obviously, the old man didn't often walk through this hole, otherwise he would have cleaned the stones from the ground.
After the two of them walked for a while, Luo Pingfan saw that the cave wall not far in front of him had turned into a stone slab, no, not exactly a stone slab, and there were metal stripes on it, and those stripes seemed to form a pattern. Due to the distance and the dim light in the cave, it was difficult to see clearly for a while. Suddenly, Luo Pingfan felt like a cat scratching his heart, itchy. He was eager to see what it was, so he took a few quick steps, leaving the old man behind.
When he got closer, Luo Pingfan finally saw the pattern composed of these metal stripes, it was a phoenix, and it was an ice phoenix.
Luo Pingfan saw the legendary beast for the first time, although it was only a pattern, but this was enough for Luo Pingfan to be shocked.
"Let's go! Don't look at it! At this time, the voice of the old man suddenly came.
After Luo Pingfan heard this, he came back to his senses, and after taking a few last glances at the ice phoenix, he continued to follow the old man of the wine.
On the cave wall behind, Luo Pingfan saw a lot of patterns composed of metal stripes one after another, some beasts and some people, until Luo Pingfan saw a giant beast spitting something out with its big mouth, and the old man stopped drinking.
Luo Ping looked at the old man in confusion, but found that there was no road ahead, no, it was not right to say that, it should be said that the road in front was blocked.
On the walls of the cave on both sides of the unknown height, there are a lot of black two-meter-long spikes, densely packed, blocking the road in front of them.
"Now, where are we?" Luo Pingfan asked in astonishment.
"No, it's not there yet, we have to move forward!" The old man said in a somewhat solemn tone.
"Huh? This...... Going ahead? Luo Pingfan pointed ahead in disbelief.
Originally, Luo Pingfan thought that the old man would say yes, but he saw him shake his head, "It's not to go, it's to rush over!" ”
"What?" Luo Pingfan suspected that his ears had heard it wrong, this dense thorn, he couldn't walk, and he wanted to rush over, which was simply crazy.
In this regard, the old man did not explain, but swung his fist into the air and smashed into the behemoth with its mouth that Luo Pingfan had seen before.
After Luo Pingfan saw this scene, he was even more puzzled, because the punch of the old man was an ordinary punch, and it had no attack power at all, and if this punch hit the mouse, it would be enough to kill the mouse.
However, it was such a punch, but the old man of the wine man hit it very seriously, Luo Ping said in his heart, is there any mystery in this? Well, quite possibly.
The more Luo Pingfan thought about it, the more he felt reasonable, so he hurriedly stared at the old man's actions. As a result, he watched it for a long time, and the old man swung his fist three or four times, but nothing happened after that, Luo Pingfan finally couldn't help asking, "What are you doing here?" ”
After hearing this, the old man no longer waved his fist, and explained to Luo Pingfan in his mouth: "Alas, people are old, no matter what they do, they should do warm-up exercises first!" ”
"Huh? So, even if you do warm-up exercises, shouldn't you practice running? What's the use of this fist? Luo Pingfan looked at the old man with a little stupidity and said.
"Alright! Since you asked me so honestly, then I'll finish the warm-up and give you a demonstration! But be prepared, or you might be scared out in a minute! The old man said exaggeratedly.
"Don't worry about this, how can I ......" Luo Pingfan didn't finish speaking, and saw the old man swing his fist again, hitting the giant beast pattern with a wide mouth in the air. Then, something happened that caught Luo Pingfan off guard, and he saw that the pattern changed after the old man swung his fist, and the mouth of the giant beast in the pattern suddenly turned pitch black, and a huge wave erupted from it.
Luo Pingfan and the old man were immediately flooded by the water, this originally, the water flowed low, and the water that spewed out of the mouth of the giant beast pattern should have flowed to both sides, but the side where the two of them came seemed to have been set up with a water dividing barrier, which caused the water to flow strangely to the front of the two, that is, the side where the entire hole was full of spikes.
The current was very fast, and Luo Pingfan couldn't stand steadily, and he was beaten by the water and kept passively hitting those spikes. And the old man on the other side was also washed by the water towards a spike not far away.
At this moment, the two seemed destined to collide with a spike in a tragic way, and the accident happened. I saw that when the bodies of the two of them touched the spikes, they suddenly became transparent, and then the bodies of the two of them passed through the first spike smoothly. Later, when the two of them touched the second spike, they passed through it in the same way, as if they had become soul bodies.
Luo Pingfan looked at this scene in surprise, guessing in his heart that these spikes were all illusions, but if these thorns were illusions, it should be almost as if the thorns became transparent! How did he become transparent but himself!
Luo Pingfan couldn't figure it out, and he didn't have time to think about it, because he felt that the water behind him was getting bigger and bigger, and at the beginning, he could barely control his body, but later, his whole body was flooded, and his body was washed away by the current.
…………
At some point, Luo Pingfan lost consciousness and fainted. When he woke up, he felt like he was choking on water, but he didn't, and even when the water was over his head, he still felt like he was breathing well.
This contradictory feeling made Luo Pingfan very irritable, so he simply didn't care about the matter and shifted his attention to the surrounding environment.
Luo Pingfan realized that he was in a very wide secret room, and the surrounding walls were all made of stone bricks with a metallic luster, which looked very solid. Luo Pingfan got up and looked ahead, but in what he saw, except for the black shadows, there was a very faint light dotted with stars.
At this time, Luo Pingfan suddenly heard movement behind him, so he hurriedly turned around to look, and after this look, he found that a figure stood up behind him, and he remembered that the old man should also be with him.
Thinking of this, Luo Pingfan walked over and took a look, and it turned out to be really an old man who was a drinker. However, this old man somehow did it, the clothes on his body were very buried, and there was a layer of dark green substance on it, I don't know what it was, anyway, as soon as Luo Pingfan saw it, he felt disgusted.
However, in line with the traditional virtue of respecting the old and loving the young, Luo Pingfan still frowned slightly and asked, "Grandpa Winemaker, what's wrong with you?" ”
"Alas, a little back, I fell when I came in before!" The old man sighed.
"Fell when you came in? Aren't we washed in by the water? Luo Pingfan asked suspiciously.
"Cut, you were indeed swept in by the water, old man, and I walked in with my head held high." The old man said with a slight smugness.
"Oh, why did you fall all the time?" Luo Pingfan said with a slight sarcasm.
"Hey, I said little baby, when everyone walks and doesn't have a wrestle, do you dare to say that you haven't fallen while walking? Besides, the entrance was so high above the ground that I wasn't prepared at all! It's strange not to wrestle. The old man said.
"High?" Luo Pingfan repeated in confusion.
"yes, yes, you passed out at the time, I don't know. Now, it's right there, see? The old man pointed behind him.
Luo Pingfan looked at the place where the old man pointed and found that there was a narrow hole, and after that, he looked down again, and he felt that it was indeed very high by visual inspection.
"Well, if this were you, I'd have to fall off as well!" The old man said.
Luo Pingfanyan looked at the old man and didn't answer, but looked around, because he suddenly found that there was no glowing thing around him, but he could see things.
The old man on the side saw that Luo Pingfan didn't speak, and thought that Luo Pingfan acquiesced to his statement, so he said again: "Hehe, you little baby don't speak, I'll take you by default!" ”
"Why is this happening? It's weird! Luo Pingfan still ignored the old man.
"What are you talking about, little baby?" When the old man saw Luo Pingfan talking to himself, he couldn't help but ask.
"Grandpa Winemaker, I want to ask you, can you see me now?" After speaking, Luo Pingfan also shook his hand in front of the old man's eyes.
After the old man saw it, he dissatisfiedly pushed Luo Pingfan's hand away, and then said: "Of course I can see it, oh ......" Speaking of this, the old man showed an expression that I understood, and continued: "You wonder why there is no light source here, but we can still see things clearly!" ”
Luo Pingfan nodded after hearing this, "Hmm." ”
"That'...... I'll tell you, don't be afraid! In fact, we are out of body now. Uh, do you understand what an out-of-body body is? ”
"I know that the soul is separated from the flesh...... You mean...... Are we soul bodies now? Luo Pingfan asked incredulously.
After listening to Luo Pingfan's question, the old man nodded, "Do you remember when we were washed away by the water, did you not have a series of feelings in the water after being submerged in the water at that time?" Also, you should remember the way our bodies collided with those spikes, and our bodies passed directly through them as if they were illusions, and that was because we were already soul bodies at that time. ”
Speaking of this, the old man paused for a moment, and then said, "Do you know when we went out of our bodies? ”
"I don't know." Luo Pingfan shook his head.
"Even when I swung my fist for no reason, it was only after five consecutive fist swings at the giant beast pattern that the giant beast separated our souls from our bodies, and then released the water and rushed us here. And because we are soul bodies, we can see things without light. Also, let me tell you, it's not the old man who deliberately scared you, just the place we are staying in now is already a ghost domain. In general, only souls can come in, well, I think ghosts are more appropriate. But don't worry, we're souls, not ghosts. ”
