Chapter 291: The Rising Sun
Everyone looked at the slight ripples in the water tank in front of them, and they all looked at each other. There is no night breeze blowing here, and the shadows of the trees outside the window are not swaying, which is indeed a little abrupt and inexplicable.
Seeing this, Gu Xing hurriedly asked, "What's wrong here?" ”
Everyone shook their heads, but Ling Ling subconsciously looked at the water tank, as if paying special attention to it.
Walking out of the narrow passage in the clouds, there was only such a small building, and there was only one room in the small building, which seemed very deliberate. But there is no way out of this house except the direction where everyone came, and the water tank placed in the period is really a little confusing.
Before Gu Xing came with Lingling, everyone had already touched the small house, and the small building seen from the window was still shrouded in clouds and mist, only a lone lamp was bright, and it could be seen that it was an elegant place, and the person who lived here before thinking about it was also a peerless person.
But no matter how much they searched, they could not find a way out of this house, and it was incomprehensible that there was not a single chair or stool in this house except for this water tank.
Gu Xing saw that everyone was confused, so he wanted to say what he thought in his heart. But for some reason, Ling Lingxia secretly glanced at him and glanced in the direction of the wind. At this time, the atmosphere was already solemn, but it was disturbed by the perverse behavior of the wind, which made it even worse.
Gu Xing seemed to have realized something, and he was no longer attached, so he found an open place and sat down, and began to close his eyes and recuperate.
After the wind was blowing and no one cared, he lost his interest and began to point to the water tank and chatter, "There must be a mystery here", "There is a secret place under the water tank", "The water tank or a mechanism" and so on.
Everyone was speechless when they heard this, and they were even more disgusted with the crazy old man in their hearts. But this person is strong in martial arts, if he wakes up, I'm afraid he will hold a grudge. At that point, it will be impossible to say. Therefore, no matter how the wind is blowing, no one cares about it.
There was an indescribable depression in the house, and the words of the wind seemed to erode the souls of the people like a ritual incantation.
The Immortal Venerable had noticed the abnormality from the beginning, and when this crazy old man who had appeared halfway out of the way jumped up from the top of the ladder to save Li Yanyun, he had a little more thought. At this point, it seems that it is indeed true. The wind is blowing here, not because of the so-called madness, but on purpose.
If this is the case, he must have reached a consensus with either Li Cunqiao or Li Yanyun, and he wants to make a move.
In this way, their current every move is probably already under the control of these two people. Whether it is Li Cunqiao or Li Yanyun, they will be put to death, and there is no other possibility.
Gu Xing had already thought of what the Immortal Venerable was thinking, so he remained silent under the hint of Lingling's eyes, holding his breath. The strong internal strength of the wind rising on the ladder of heaven is a kind of music and rhythm evil skill that has been transmitted to the Western Regions, which is exactly the same as the origin of the Li clan in the Later Tang Dynasty.
According to this logic, the person who wants to do it must be himself. Because, only by eradicating the worries, Li Cunqiao will break them one by one and win the victory of this "Luoyang Chess Game" steadily.
In the interval between the magic sounds, the water tank rippled again. Unlike before, the ripples rippled to the edge of the water tank, making a dull sound.
At this time, Li Cunmiao, who was observing all this on the other side, couldn't help but show a look of puzzlement, and said to Nalan with some annoyance: "Why did you help?" Nalan didn't hide it, but said bluntly: "It's just to make things more interesting." ”
"In that case, how about adding some more ingredients?" A trace of hideousness appeared on Li Cunmiao's face, and there was a simple vial in his hand at some point, and the bottle exuded a different fragrance.
Nalan took a step back with a blank face, meaning that he would choose to sit on the sidelines next. Li Cunmiao raised his hand and put the vial on top of the water tank, and then shook his wrist slightly, and reddish-brown powder was sprinkled into the water tank.
This may seem like an understatement, but it has an extraordinary effect. Because Gu Xing and the others on the other side of the water tank were experiencing everything unbelievable at this time.
After the dull sound of the water tank, a rich aroma emanated from the water tank, accompanied by a dull sound that had not completely dissipated, making everyone's hearts sway. Feng Zhengyang gradually stopped the magic sound when he heard the muffled sound of the water tank, although he didn't know why Li Cunqiao was like this, but the corners of his mouth slowly hooked, revealing a strange smile.
The aroma began to permeate the entire house, and the door to the passage from which it had come slammed shut, and the water in the tank began to slowly become cloudy.
Gu Xing had been holding his breath and concentrating before, trying his best to fight against this disturbing magic sound, and suddenly he suddenly opened his eyes when he smelled the aroma, and suddenly threw himself next to the water tank and looked at it fixedly. I saw that the clear water in the water tank slowly became viscous, and the originally clear water had turned into mud at this time, and in addition to the aroma, it was also gurgling and steaming.
It was as if someone had added a handful of firewood under the water tank and heated it up quickly.
It was already approaching the hot summer, and the house only had one window to let in the air, and the sudden change of the water tank caused the temperature in the house to rise sharply. In this way, if people can't escape from this place in a short time, they may be more than lucky.
The Immortal Venerable immediately went to the only window in the room, and slammed his palm on the wall of the house with all his strength. But for some reason, this seemingly ordinary wall did not move at all, and there was no ripple.
This surprised everyone, you must know that Hades and Nalan are not comparable, if even he can't break this wall, then others will only have to watch. Seeing that the power of Hades Venerable's blow was actually completely dissolved by this wall, Mo Ye also came to his side, and after the two looked at each other, they struck towards the wall together.
What made everyone more and more unbelievable was that the walls were still untouched, just like before.
Gu Xing did not continue to wait passively, but circled around the water tank, and then pulled out a short knife and slashed at the water tank. Unexpectedly, Feng Zhengyang suddenly jumped over, pushed Gu Xing away, and hit the water tank with both hands, as if he wanted to break it. Gu Xing originally thought that Feng Zhengyang had no intention of waiting, so he was going to make a move, but when he saw this scene, he didn't know what this person wanted.
With a strange scream, Feng Zhengyang's hands were quickly roasted red by the water tank, but this water tank was the same as before, except for the steaming heat. But judging from the wind's expression, the water tank was already burning and scalding, and even he could not bear it.
At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded. If you can't break through the confines of the house, and you can't break the water tank to dissolve the rising heat, is there only a dead end?
Just when everyone was at a loss, Ling Ling pulled out a short knife and slashed at the water tank. The wind was blowing and couldn't stop it, and the water tank actually opened a hole, and a hot muddy liquid overflowed from it. Luo Xiu happened to be standing in front of him, and after Lingling slashed, he hurriedly jumped away, and Luo Xiu didn't dare to hold it up, so he hurriedly jumped to the side.
As the two of them left, one after the other, the mud gushed out, gradually covering the ground where the two had just stood, and with the sound of crackling, the ground was actually corroded into a huge hole.
Gu Xing sighed sincerely, "The mountains and rivers are poor and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village." ”
Ling Ling rolled his eyes angrily when he heard this, shook off the mud on it, and put the knife into its sheath. After the tank cracked, cobweb-like cracks began to spread on the walls, and it seemed that it could burst at any time.
Everyone retreated at this time, but only Gu Xing and Ling Ling looked at the pothole, a little distracted. Almost at the same time, the two looked up with joy on their faces, and when they saw each other's expressions, they both turned their faces away. Gu Xing saw that Ling Ling was reluctant to take the initiative to speak, so he said eagerly: "Quickly escape into this pothole, so that you can have a glimmer of life." ”
At this time, how dare everyone slack off, and they jumped into the pit one after another. As everyone knows, the change here is an arrangement that Li Cunqiao has already laid out.
The wind was blowing and the last one jumped into the hole, and with an explosion, the hot "mud" in the water tank began to splash everywhere, quickly covering the entire floor of the house, and with a "boom", the whole house collapsed and ceased to exist in an instant.
Li Cunmiao looked at the scene in the water tank, a little depressed, but he didn't say too much. just turned to look at Li Yanyun and said to Nalan: "Let him sleep, I still have business to do." ”
Nalan nodded indifferently, and the next moment he flashed to Li Yanyun's side and pointed his hand on his neck. Li Yanyun immediately rolled her eyes and passed out.
Li Cunqiao saw that Nalan was not a killer, so he asked with great interest, "What's the explanation?" ”
"Sin does not lead to death, nor should I condemn life and death."
Li Cunmiao nodded understandingly, no longer looked back at Li Yanyun who was bound, turned around and strode out of the hall.
At this time, it was almost sunrise, and the moonlight gradually dissipated, and only a few birdsongs fluttered between the heavens and the earth......
said that Gu Xing and the others jumped into the pit and fell into a winding slide. The slide was extended down, and everyone was shocked, but they could only take advantage of the trend.
When the last person also climbed out of the slide, the eyes suddenly opened, it turned out that everyone had returned to the inner palace, but here was completely different from the scene just seen, there was a lake with blue waves, in the rising sun sprinkled a little sun, rippling everyone's mood.
Just when everyone was surprised, a pleasure boat suddenly floated out of the lake, and there were two people standing on the boat, it was Li Cunqiao and Nalan. At this time, Li Cunqiao was looking at everyone from afar with his hands behind his back, with an idle look. And Nalan still had that indifferent smile, as if nothing had happened.
When the pleasure boat was about to float to the center of the lake, Li Cunqiao suddenly said loudly: "The sun is rising in the east, and today is a good season......
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, but they did not let their guard down. After Li Cunmiao finished speaking, he walked to the side of the boat, patted his palm twice, and suddenly showed a weird smile. Everyone didn't know what to do, and they all retreated, only to see that under the water of the lake, a column of water suddenly burst into the sky, and a group of twelve people broke out of the water.
They were all dressed in water-sheltering suits, holding foreign swords, and their eyes were fierce. Li Cunmiao yawned at this time, and pointed at a few people and shouted: "The matter has come to this point, and it will be resolved quickly!" ”
The twelve people who broke out of the water were already standing by the lake at this time, and when they heard this, they immediately rushed towards Gu Xing and the others, looking like they wanted to put everyone to death. The wind was blowing in the midst of many rescues and difficulties before, and I don't know when I hid in a low bush, looking at everything in front of me from afar......
