Chapter 9: The Line Between Life and Death

After the arrangement, everyone began to act, Uncle Zhao and Li Yuwei walked to the big iron gate, picked up the key from Fang Ming, who had become coke, and waited for Fang Xiaoyao's next instructions.

Fang Xiaoyao and Li Er looked at Fries in front of them, and then looked at their respective corners.

ā€œ3ā€

ā€œ2ā€

ā€œ1ā€

"Let's go!"

Fang Xiaoyao and Li Er immediately separated, bypassed the demon, and ran to their corner, the sudden change made Fries stunned for a while. After reacting, the demon immediately chose to chase after him.

", Brother Fang, he's chasing me over, ah~~~ah~~~!" Although the wind was sluggish and cold just now, Li Er was immediately shocked when he saw that the demon who tore the aunt and swallowed the cute girl chased after him.

"Li Er, don't panic, stick to the wall, he can't reach you!"

"Oh! yes, yes, Grandpa is not afraid of you! Come on!" to say that Li Er's personality is out of character, and when he realized that the demon couldn't touch him for a while, he immediately shuddered.

6:00

"Jingle ~ Bell ~ Bell ~"

As the power of the magic array declined, the chain was lengthened by Fries.

"Ah~~~~!Trial, I'm Cao Nima!!" Li Er didn't dare to force Lai Lai anymore, and hurriedly ran to the corner, and the fat all over his body trembled.

"Click!"

Perhaps because of the threat of death, Li Er's burst of speed allowed him to reach the corner faster than Fang Xiaoyao. But at the same time, the sound of a chain straightening echoed through the room.

ā€œ...ā€

Li Er slowly turned his head and saw that terrifying face.

Fries was stuck not far in front of him, and because of the restriction of movement, Fries angrily waved his claws, trying to tear apart the little fat man in front of him.

"Ah~~~I'm going to die~~~"

Li Er clutched his pounding chest, and his face could even feel the air flow drawn by the demon's claws.

"Mom, it's so scary here~"

Li Er wailed in his heart, and the fear of death at hand, made him want to cry for a while.

"Li Er, don't shout, he can't reach you for the time being, take a look at any clues in the corner, as well as the wall, take a look." ā€

Fang Xiaoyao also went to the corner at this time, and he was very worried about Li Er, who was targeted by Fries, but this is not the time to talk about this, the clues are the most important at the moment, and if you can't find the clues, you have to die.

The corner was empty, so Fang Xiaoyao directly began to work on the wall, groping in the dark.

Soon, a bulge on the corner wall attracted Fang Xiaoyao's attention, half admitted, half groped, Fang Xiaoyao figured out what the bulge was.

"Left, Left, Left, Right"

From the iron gate to the initial ground direction, four big characters.

Contacting the 12 scales on the big iron door before, Fang Xiaoyao realized that this might really be the last clue!

Immediately shouted to Li Er, "Li Er, look at what you have on the wall!"

ā€œ1,4,3,1怂 ā€

Li Erfang's carefree voice, holding back his fear, groped for a while, and also found a string of bulges.

"Brother, it's a string of numbers, 1431. ā€

"Is the direction from the Iron Gate to where we started?"

"Yes!"

It's really a clue to open the door!

"Uncle Zhao, insert the key in, be careful, listen to my instructions, Li Yuwei, convey the instructions and ensure that Uncle Zhao is correct. Fang Xiaoyao shouted to Uncle Zhao and Hei Changzhi.

"Left 1, Left 4, Left 3, Right 1. Fang Xiaoyao recited silently in his heart, ready to command Uncle Zhao to open the door.

"The hope of life is hidden in the corner of the beginning, born from death..."

However, at this time, the voice of the tape recorder sounded in Fang Xiaoyao's mind again.

Fang Xiaoyao suddenly found that the clue to open the door was indeed in the corner as the prompt said, but they didn't use the prompt in the second half of the tape recorder, was it just a nonsense? Fang Xiaoyao thought it was unlikely.

"From death to life... From the dead to the living," Fang Xiaoyao kept reading the second half of the prompt.

"Brother Fang, okay, no~ I'm almost dying~ It's terrible (愒o愒)" Facing Fries, who was dancing with his teeth and claws, Li Er was under a lot of pressure.

"Born from death! is the order, the order is reversed!"

Suddenly, Fang Xiaoyao realized something.

Life can be understood as the place where they appear or the iron gate that can take them to escape, but there is only one possibility of death, and that is that each of them has experienced death before entering this space!

"'Death' is the beginning!" the old Hawaiian man's words once again appeared in Fang Xiaoyao's mind.

"Well, there's only one outcome!"

"Insert the key and turn a scale to the right!"

Li Yuwei conveyed the news, and Uncle Zhao inserted the key and took a deep breath.

"Click!"

As Uncle Zhao's hands twisted, the key turned a scale to the right, and the hearts of the two of them, one old and one young, were raised. However, the blue electric light did not appear, but the key sank into the depths with Uncle Zhao's push.

"Brother Fang, the key has gone in again!" Li Yuwei immediately passed the news to Fang Xiaoyao.

"Huh~" Fang Xiaoyao breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that he bet right! The last clue gives the method of opening the door, and the order is reversed.

If you pick the lock according to his habit of reading from left to right...

The scene of Fang Ming turning into charcoal floated in front of him, Fang Xiaoyao was afraid for a while, and Uncle Zhao didn't know that he had already turned around from the ghost gate.

If it is correct, then it means that the door is about to be opened!

"Turn three more scales to the left. Fang Xiaoyao continued to command.

"Click"

Again, the key sank into a tooth deep into the depths.

"YES!" Li Er waved his fist, "Great, it's cleared." ā€

And at this moment, Fang Xiaoyao couldn't be happy. Because he noticed that the countdown seemed to become a little faster as the key successfully turned two teeth.

"Jingle Bell ~ Jingle Bell ~"

At this moment, Fang Xiaoyao caught a glimpse of the chain, and the chain began to grow slowly!

"Li Er, listen to me, now, I'll count 1, 2, 3, don't look back, run to the big iron gate, no matter what happens, don't look back, do you hear!" Fang Xiaoyao immediately shouted to Li Er's side.

"Hey, Brother Li, isn't this all stable, don't look at this thing in front of me, I'm not afraid. Li Er understood that he and the others would be able to go out soon, and his mood became high, and he even wanted to break his head with Fries in front of him~Skr~

"Shut up and get ready to run. Fang Yaoyao's roar came from the opposite side.

"Uh... Okay, brother, I'll just run. Li Er closed his mouth in amusement and waited for instructions.

"Li Yuwei, Uncle Zhao, the rest of the rotation method, I will wait for the next time to report it at one time, you must rotate correctly, you must be fast!

"Got it!" Hearing the seriousness in the words, although the other three didn't know what was going on, after so many twists and turns, no one took Fang Xiaoyao's words as a deaf ear anymore. Earnestly waiting for Fang Xiaoyao's next instructions.

ā€œ1ā€

ā€œ2ā€

ā€œ3ā€

"Run!"

Fang Xiaoyao and Li Er frantically began to run towards the big iron gate!

"Left 4, Right 1"

"Click, click, as it turned, the remaining two teeth disappeared into the keyhole, and with a bang, the seemingly thick iron door quickly shrank into the wall. Behind the door was a dark passage that could not be seen in the distance, and the two people in front of the door looked back at Fang Xiaoyao.

At the same time, the magic array engraved on the wall of the Origin Ground flickered violently and disappeared!

"Look at what I'm doing, go in! Hurry!" Seeing that the two of them were still cold, Fang Xiaoyao shouted.

Uncle Zhao decisively pulled Li Yuwei into the passage behind the door, and before he could run a few steps, the two suddenly disappeared from the passage.

5:00

5:49

4:30

4:00

3:30

3:00

The countdown starts to reset to zero quickly.

"Linglingling, Lingling!" At the moment when the magic array was extinguished, the iron chains that bound Fries were broken free by him like tofu, and the demon frantically pounced on Li Er.

Because of Fang Xiaoyao's advance warning, the two of them were only a few meters away from the iron gate. But it is clear that at the speed of both Li Er and Fries, Li Er has no hope.

"Ah!!h

Fang Xiaoyao didn't leave Li Er to escape by himself, he took out the remaining perfume on his body, threw it at Fries, and shouted at the demon.

"Sun thief, eat holy water!"

The glass bottle shattered, and the perfume flowed over Fries's body, and although it was useless, the damn smell of holy water still felt like a tube of mustard squeezing into his nose, and the anger rushed to the high ground of Fries's IQ.

The demon gave up chasing Li Er, roared angrily, turned his head and rushed towards Fang Xiaoyao, the only remaining eye ignited with anger that wanted to tear Fang Xiaoyao apart!

Li Er, who didn't know the situation behind him, rushed into the passage and disappeared into the dim light.

Because of the direction of the iron chain and the door, Fang Xiaoyao, who rushed diagonally towards the iron gate, faced Fries, who cut diagonally along the arc, according to the distance, the front, there is no possibility of escape!

Looking at the Fries rushing over, the fear of death constantly stirred Fang Xiaoyao's nerves, and his heart began to beat wildly, pumping blood to every part of his body.

At this time, a wonderful feeling appeared on Fang Xiaoyao's body, which gave Fang Xiaoyao the illusion that he could control all the cells in his body.

The brain is running fast as if it's fully activated. The current situation was transformed into one information after another into Fang Xiaoyao's mind, constantly rehearsing the possibility of the next step.

"Yes, you can go over!"

Suddenly, Fang Xiaoyao shouted in his heart.

Ignoring Fries' howl, Fang Xiaoyao leaned down a few angles and sprinted towards the door faster.

2:00

1:30

1:00

The countdown was about to end, a man and a ghost met, and the approaching demon slashed its claws towards Fang Xiaoyao.

At this moment, Fang Xiaoyao stepped violently, and a volley flipped up, bypassing Fries, and stepping into the passage!

0:30

Fang Xiaoyao, who had survived the catastrophe, did not show the joy of successful escape, nor did he continue to run forward, but just looked at his stomach blankly. A huge gap appeared in his stomach, and his intestines were already flowing all over the ground, hideous and terrifying.

"Sure enough, is it still too reluctant?"

Fang Xiaoyao muttered silently and fell to the ground!
