The belly of the crescent moon was bulging in the middle, and the two ends were pointed, which was painted by Mu Shuning himself.

Luo Zhu suddenly felt a chill in his back: "I remember, we have been going up." ”

Mu Shuning was silent.

Luo Zhu didn't rest anymore: "Go, keep going." ”

The mountain walls were dark and deep, and the dim lights jumped and were dim. The expressions of both of them were solemn and solemn, and their lips were pursed.

After about a cup of tea, Luo Zhu suddenly stopped.

Mu Shuning's eyes darkened, and he also stopped.

In front of them was the skull that scared Luo Zhu and was kicked away by him at the beginning, and the footprints on it that Luo Zhu had stepped on were still very clear.

Luo Zhu even stepped forward to compare it, and it was completely consistent with the soles of his feet.

Mu Shuning only felt like a man's back.

Luo Zhu burst into a rough sentence: "Ghost hitting the wall? ”

The lights on the mountain wall "beeped" and the slight sound reached their ears, and at the same time, their hearts beat like drums, and their instincts told them that this was not easy.

The path they walked was all stairs, and they kept walking upward, how could they possibly return to the same place? This is simply not possible in reality.

Mu Shuning's whole body exploded: "It's not a ghost hitting the wall." There are no ghosts in the world. ”

Luo Zhu said again: "Formation? ”

Mu Shuning was stunned, but shook his head.

Back then, he went to Tao Qingze a lot, not to mention all the large and small formations, he had seen all the more common formations, and he could perceive them for the first time when he fell into the formation. And in front of him, he has no clue at all.

Luo Zhu didn't go any further, and it would be in vain to go any further, at this time, he could probably understand why there were corpses here.

Exhaustion and despair fill the hearts of the travelers, and they no longer have the courage to move forward, for they have seen their future, death.

Mu Shuning was a little dizzy, and the overflowing death aura here was extremely unfavorable to him.

"So what the hell is going on? We haven't gone through a fork in the road, we haven't gone downhill, how can we get back to where we were? ”

"What is this?" As Luo Zhu spoke, he felt a wave of irritability welling up in his heart.

The cool breeze blew from nowhere, and it happened to blow into Luo Zhu's neck, and as soon as his words fell, he shivered. At the same time, the nameless fire in his heart was extinguished in an instant.

"Eh, Qin Yuxing, didn't you say that you had seen this piano in your ancient books of Jingqiong? What does the book say? ”

Mu Shuning twisted his eyebrows, thought about it carefully, and said: "'Go into the cave, don't see its light for a long time, suddenly, return to its original position', there are so many descriptions in the book, and the other parts are all about the surrounding situation, which is similar to what we see." This is just an excerpt, and I am afraid that the author who wrote this article has already died here. ”

Luo Zhu pouted: "In other words, how can you get out if it is not written in the book?" ”

Mu Shuning shook his head regretfully.

Seeing this, Luo Zhu took out the Night Pearl, intending to use the Night Pearl to illuminate the wall to see if there were some inscriptions left by his ancestors on the wall, in an attempt to find clues from it.

Although Luo Zhu is a good man on weekdays, he is very reliable at critical moments.

It's a pity that there is not a word on the wall.

Luo Zhu was not discouraged, he bowed down and carefully illuminated the wall with the Night Pearl, slowly moving sideways, Mu Shuning followed closely behind him, not letting go of any possibility. The two of them walked a considerable distance.

Even so, they had nothing to gain.

Luo Zhu bent over and was a little tired, so he stopped, took the Night Pearl into his arms, and suggested, "Let's go back and try?" ”

Mu Shuning turned around, looked at the direction of the black one, and nodded.

While walking back, Luo Zhu thought nonsense: "Eh, Qin Yuxing, you said that if we are in a strange circle now, we are going up all the time, but we finally return to the original position, if there is something that we didn't think of connecting the entrance and exit together, if we happen to stand at that point, will the first half of the body walk over and return to the place under the stairs, and the second half of the body remains in place." There is a non-existent 'knife' that splits the body in half. ”

Mu Shuning shuddered, he suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at him, and said in a firm tone: "Impossible." ”

"It's counterintuitive, it's impossible for this to happen."

Luo Zhu also turned his head, and saw the seriousness in Mu Shuning's eyes through the dim light, his expression froze, and he seemed to admit defeat: "I'll just talk about it casually, there must be something in here that we haven't found, you don't have to listen too carefully to what I say." ”

"According to your words, with the strength of the two of us, there is no way to escape."

"The way of heaven has its own laws, and all things must abide by the laws of heaven to have the qualification to exist, and as you said, 'things that we haven't thought of' can not even be predicted by the way of heaven.

"And if this kind of thing really exists, then its existence in the world against the laws of the Heavenly Dao proves that it will have the power to surpass the Heavenly Dao, and we alone cannot defeat it."

Luo Zhu didn't seem to understand, and suddenly felt that he had reacquainted himself with the person in front of him again, and nodded: "In other words, are we thinking about things complicated?" ”

Mu Shuning nodded.

Luo Zhu raised his eyebrows: "Qin Yuxing, do you have a solution?" ”

Mu Shuning's face suddenly sank, and he said lightly: "No." ”

Luo Zhu: "......"

-

The two walked for a long time, and finally, as they expected, even as they walked back, they saw the crescent mark.

Mu Shuning's face was gloomy and uncertain, and he stood stiffly, looking down at the mark.

And Luo Zhu was exhausted, sat on the ground, leaned against the mountain wall, and said, "Let's rest for a while, it's not a way to walk around like a headless fly." ”

Mu Shuning didn't speak, and he didn't seem to be in a good mood.

He had just tried to break through this wall with spiritual power, but it seemed that it was forbidden here, and he couldn't use any spiritual power at all.

Seeing this scene, Luo Zhu was a little helpless, and patted the ground beside him: "Come here, take a break, didn't you just say that we were thinking about things too complicated?" After a while, you might be able to figure out a solution. ”

Mu Shuning didn't refute, glanced at Luo Zhu and sat next to him.

Luo Zhu took out two large pieces of air-dried venison from the space ring and handed one of them to Mu Shuning.

Mu Shuning took it: "Thank you." ”

Luo Zhu smiled, stretched out with venison in his hand: "Why do you still thank me?" ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a "bang" sound, and the night pearl fell to the ground, and rolled towards the wall opposite the two of them.

This movement attracted Mu Shuning's sideways gaze.

Luo Zhu sighed, bent over and picked up the night pearl and put it in his arms, and said: "Alas, it's really troublesome, how good it is to stay where you are, you have to let me pick it up when you roll around." ”

Hearing this, Mu Shuning, who was originally immersed in eating meat, suddenly raised his head, and his eyes burst into bright light.

It's like a dark night, when a light suddenly lights up, and the bright light instantly ignites the entire starry sky.

"Luo Zhu, why is the Night Pearl rolling?"

Luo Zhu was puzzled: "Because it's round?" ”

Mu Shuning didn't speak, he reached out to pick up the night pearl in Luo Zhu's arms, and the expression on his face was vivid and distinct.

Luo Zhu thought that Mu Shuning was going to eat his tofu at first, so he subconsciously shrank back, but when he found that he wanted the Night Pearl, he relaxed his body.

Mu Shuning put the Night Pearl on the ground, quietly, without exerting force on the Night Pearl, and gently took it off, only to see the Night Pearl slowly rolling towards the other end.

Luo Zhu's Adam's apple moved, just looking at Mu Shuning's attitude of attaching such importance, he felt that this matter was extraordinary.

Mu Shuning still asked him: "Why is the Night Pearl rolling?" ”

Luo Zhu was in a fog: "Because...... Because the ground is uneven? ”

Mu Shuning glanced at him, suddenly chuckled, picked up a stone from the ground, stopped talking, and began to write and draw on the wall.

Luo Zhu was fascinated by Mu Shuning's laughter, he smiled stupidly, sat in place, and nibbled on venison one bite after another.

Mu Shuning was concentrating on painting on the wall, and without saying a word, the expression on his face was full of joy.

After a long time, Mu Shuning was done, threw the stone aside, patted the floating ash on his hand, and beckoned to Luo Zhu: "Luo Zhu, come here." ”

"Hey." Luo Zhu responded, wiped the oil on his hand on the wall at will, and ran over.

At first glance, when he saw the picture on the wall, Luo Zhu was stunned: "What are you painting?" ”

Mu Shuning's painting is not low, only to see a spiral-shaped staircase on the wall, but what is intriguing is that this staircase seems to be rising, but in the end it is connected together with the head and tail.

The relaxed look on Luo Zhu's face disappeared and became a little dignified.

Mu Shuning raised his hand and caressed the wall: "What's wrong?" ”

"How is this possible?" Luo Zhu's voice trembled a little.

Mu Shuning pointed his finger at the stairs: "Look at it again." ”

Luo Zhu stared intently, and suddenly said, "Qin Yuxing, is your picture crooked?" ”

Mu Shuning said: "No." ”

The pictorial staircase on the wall rises in a spiral, but if you look closely, each step is wide and short, and each step is still tilted, and if the angle and height of the inclination are carefully calculated, it can definitely be connected end to end.

Luo Zhu was suddenly speechless, he turned his head to look at Mu Shuning, and something changed in his eyes.

Mu Shuning said: "This is the case on the staircase we are on, but I exaggerated the picture, and the one under my feet, because the staircase is too long, the arc of the spiral is almost negligible to the human eye, so it gives us the illusion that we have been moving forward." Coupled with the dim light on both sides of this staircase, it is very deceptive to our vision. ”

Luo Zhu said: "Then if you say so, since the end is connected, then how did we get in?" ”

Mu Shuning blinked: "The question you asked may be the key to our ability to get out." ”

"I suspect that there was a trap or barrier in the place where we just entered the staircase, and it misled us into this 'death staircase', and the bones we saw were the predecessors trapped in it."
