As soon as they entered the ancient building, they seemed to be completely isolated from the outside world, the bell disappeared completely, and Lu Chen and the others also completely regained consciousness under the shroud of white training.
Lu Chen, who woke up, felt that he had a long, long dream, in which he seemed to have come to the ancient town, the people of the ancient town respected him very much, he lived in the ancient town for a few days, and discussed something with the patriarch in the ancient town, and finally explained something, and then Lu Chen didn't remember, rubbed his forehead that was still aching, and looked around, this should be a medicine shop, the counter was full of dust, obviously no one lived for a long time, and the petite figure on the side was looking at Lu Chen and the two curiously.
"I'll go, what's the situation, who hit Xin Ye on the head?" Chen Xin, who was sober, shouted loudly, and when he saw the white petite figure squatting aside and looking at himself, there was a moment of silence, and then a shocking cry came out, "Ah! Ghost! Hell! Chen Xin was so frightened that he crawled back, squatting behind the counter and throwing things around.
The petite figure was also startled by Chen Xin, and screamed silently at the same time as Chen Xin, hiding behind the pillar and revealing his little head, looking at this side.
Lu Chen looked at the two people who were afraid of each other, he was really speechless, buried his head under his hands from behind the counter, and grabbed Chen Xin, who was still waving in the air with one hand, and patted his face, "Hey! Hey! Wake up! Wake up! What are you doing, it's just a game, what are you afraid of! Besides, she won't hurt you. ”
Chen Xin, who was woken up by Lu Chen, was full of grievances, hid behind Lu Chen, looked at the petite figure showing his head not far away, and stammered: "I, I'm not nervous, head, for the first time, look, see ghosts, ghosts." ”
Ignoring Chen Xin, Lu Chen changed into clothes with a kind smile, and asked softly at the petite figure behind the pillar, "You saved us?" ”
When the petite figure saw Lu Chen coming, he shrank back slightly in fright, and nodded lightly.
"Don't worry, we won't hurt you, you don't have to be afraid. You come out. Lu Chen continued.
The petite figure shrank back even more.
Lu Chen felt a chill, suddenly thought of something, took out a Robin Fruit, and shook it in front of the petite figure, "Do you want it?" You're out and it's yours, and I have a lot of more. ”
Robin Guo's strange appearance instantly attracted the attention of the petite figure, and slowly stretched out his little hand to touch it, but suddenly the petite figure was startled by the white shadow that suddenly appeared in Lu Chen's hand, and the little hand instantly retracted, and his body hid behind the pillar again.
After seeing the white shadow on Lu Chen's hand, a trace of joy appeared in the eyes of the petite figure, and the little hand slowly stretched out again, wanting to touch the little gray gray in Lu Chen's hand, but he was a little scared, touched it slightly, and quickly retracted it, his little eyes looked at Lu Chen, and his eyes were full of longing.
The little gray ash that suddenly appeared in Lu Chen's hand, holding Robin fruit with both paws, shaking his head like a rattle, kept "hmm" in his mouth, as if to say, "Don't, it's mine!" ”
The little gray ash who expressed his dissatisfaction to Lu Chen suddenly felt that he was fart, his thigh was touched, and his whole body was paralyzed in fright, and he turned around and sat on Lu Chen's hand, looking at the direction in which he was touched, his ears drooped, his tail between his legs, and he wailed in a low voice of "hmm".
Seeing Xiao Gray Gray's strong reaction, the petite figure was also startled, but seeing that Little Gray was so stupid and cute, the petite figure looked at Lu Chen with pleading eyes.
"You want to hug it?" Lu Chen asked.
The petite figure nodded.
Lu Chen handed the little gray ash over, and frightened the little gray gray to cry wolf, thinking that he was going to be abandoned, and after Lu Chen promised to give it a few robin nuts, it quieted down.
The petite figure slowly came out from behind the pillar, took the little gray ash from Lu Chen's hand, carefully held it in the palm of his hand, and gently touched the little gray gray's head with one hand for fear of hurting it.
Lu Chen's eyes sank on the side, "There is an entity!" It's not the kind out there. ”
Little Gray was very comfortable being stroked on the petite figure's hands, and kept licking the fingers of the petite figure, looking like he was enjoying it, and he had already forgotten his previous reluctance.
"Can you speak?" Lu Chen asked in a low voice.
The petite figure shook his head.
"What's your name? Is there anyone else here? Lu Chen asked again.
The petite figure wrote a strange word "spirit" on the ground, shook his head and nodded.
Lu Chen lowered his head and looked at the strange word "Spirit" and thought for a while, then said tentatively: "You mean your name is Spirit?" There was no one here, but now there are people. ”
Spirit nodded.
Chen Xin on the side looked surprised, "I'll go!" How do you guess what he's trying to say! ”
Lu Chen pointed to his head, ignoring Chen Xin, who looked puzzled, and then asked, "Do you mean people other than us?" ”
Spirit nodded.
"Can you show us there?" Lu Chen looked at Ling.
The spirit closed its eyes, as if feeling something, nodded, got up and walked outside.
Lu Chen and the others followed Ling and walked out, at this time, the town bell had stopped, and the figures on the street had returned to a state of confusion and wandered aimlessly on the street.
Ling stopped at the corner and turned his head to look at Lu Chen and the two, and after confirming that the two of them were following, they continued to float forward, the skirt swinging in the air like a lotus, and every corner of the corner spirit stopped and looked back, and waited for Lu Chen and the two to follow, and then continued to move forward, and unconsciously Lu Chen and the two followed the spirit in the fog and kept moving forward, circling in circles.
The spirit suddenly stopped in front of a hexagonal building, the building was like a tower, and the upper body was hidden in the fog, and the fog was dyed blue by the blue light at the top of the tower, like a cloud of star mist, wrapping the tower body and slowly circulating.
The tower has six sides, Lu Chen looked at them one by one, the first face was engraved with four layers of space, the first layer of space was full of flames, the mountains and rocks were cracked, and there were eight light gates evenly scattered in the space, and each light gate was in front of a dangerous place;
The second layer of space seems to be connected to the first layer of space, and there is no sky full of flames, but it is divided into eight areas, each area has four light gates, and there are four whirlpools in the light gate that do not know where to lead;
The third layer of space was full of ice and snow, with heavy snow in the air, thousands of miles of ice on the ground, and the people inside were thinly dressed, hugging their bodies and wailing.
There are a total of eighteen spheres of light like enchantments in the fourth layer of space, and there is a person living alone in each enchantment, and there is no way to get out of the enchantment until death!
Lu Chen looked at the lower side of the tower again, there was only one space on this side, the space was full of food, fruits, etc., but the people inside were extremely abnormal, the body was emaciated, and the clothes were not covered, which could be roughly divided into three categories: one type of messy hair and black face, dry and dry lips, and could only lick the mouth with his tongue, although he ran around begging for food, but all the pool water he saw turned into pus and blood that could not be quoted.
One is that whatever the food is, it will turn into flames.
There is also the last type of pharynx as thin as a needle, with a mouth as large as a giant and a bulging belly like a mountain, and no matter what food you get, you will not be able to swallow it because of your thin throat.
In short, any of these three types are tortured, and despite the accumulation of various delicacies in the space, they just can't eat them.
Seeing that a chill gradually rose in the hearts of the two of them, they continued to look down, this wall is relatively normal, the theme is all kinds of animals, but the life is indeed very miserable, or they are killed, skinned and cramped, or they are caught to carry heavy burdens, so that they are hungry and thirsty; There are also all kinds of torture such as nose piercing, hooking, whipping, and binding, or even hurting each other, and being in a situation where the law of the jungle is the strong.
After sympathizing with the tragedy of the animals, Lu Chen then looked down, this wall has completely returned to normal, and there is a prosperous scene in the world, all kinds of prosperity, but there are also all kinds of darkness mixed with it, which is chilling.
Shaking his head, Lu Chen looked at the fifth wall, and saw that it was full of humanoid creatures, with fangs and fierce eyes, the male body was ugly, and the female was dignified and beautiful, but the whole space seemed to be very lacking in materials, and there was a constant struggle inside.
Lu Chen walked towards the last wall, the wall was carved with a holy mountain of golden and brilliant halls, surrounded by the sun and the moon, and there was a palace on the top of the mountain, clean and bright, magnificent, like a fairyland on earth.
After reading the six pictures, Lu Chen couldn't understand what was expressed on the wall at all, and only heard Chen Xin's hesitant voice on the side: "Why do I think this thing is engraved on it so much like the six paths of Buddhism!" ”
"Six? What is that? Lu Chen asked.
Chen Xin then said slowly: "In Buddhism, the world is often divided into six realms, and they believe that all beings in the world have karmic retribution due to their good and bad karma, and this karmic retribution has six places, which are called the six realms. The six realms are divided by the Buddha according to the size of the blessings received by the karmic body. According to the wisdom of the sages, the Buddha summarized all sentient beings in the world into six categories - heaven, man, asura, animal, hungry ghost, and hell, the first three belong to the three good paths, and the last three belong to the three evil paths, which are what they call the six realms, which are very similar to the descriptions of Buddhism. ”
"But what are you doing with these carvings on this tower?" Lu Chen asked again.
"I don't know, but I have some guesses, I don't know if you remember the whole town." Chen Xin said.
"Remember, what's wrong. Can you finish it all at once? "Lu Chencui arrived.
"Okay, okay, say it right away, say it right away, don't rush it." Chen Xin, who was still serious just now, immediately couldn't pretend to be able to continue, and returned to his original giggling appearance, and then said, "If I'm not mistaken, we are now under the tower in the center of the town, although we didn't see the shape of the tower clearly, although we were far away before, but now I think about it, it's right, combined with the previous Nai He bridge and bells, I think we have walked into a very dangerous place!" ”
Lu Chen was still listening to Chen Xin's analysis very carefully, but when he heard his last sentence, he suddenly became angry, and patted Chen Xin's head, "Do you still need to say this?" Everyone can see that we have walked into a place of extreme danger! ”
Chen Xin touched his head aggrievedly, "It's you who let me talk about, and it's you who beat me, what do you want?" ”
Lu Chen ignored Chen Xin, turned his head to Ling and asked, "Are the other people you said are here?" ”
Ling nodded, stretched out his hand to draw a symbol out of thin air, a blue vortex appeared on the tower, Ling pointed at himself, and then pointed at Lu Chen and the two, and took the lead towards the whirlpool.
Lu Chen and the two glanced at each other, and followed the spirit towards the whirlpool.
