75. Hell yes
I was reading and rubbing my eyes, for fear that I would see it wrong, this is a real stone statue, since it is a statue, how can the eyes and mouth be open?
But no matter how I look at it, the eyes and mouth of the stone statue are obviously open, aren't they closed?
Maybe I'm just wrong.
Thinking of this, I calmed down the surprise in my heart and comforted Xiao Nan: "Maybe, we just saw it wrong, it may have been open all along......"
Indeed, this is the only explanation.
Xiao Nan thought carefully for a while, nodded in a deep voice, and agreed with my statement.
Leaving aside the statue, the question now is, is this really an academy of magic? If this is really the Academy of Magic, then where are the others? Where are the classrooms? It was clearly a room with only one stone statue.
"Why don't we go out and ask?" Xiao Nan proposed.
Ma Yun also leaned over, although she didn't speak, but it could be seen from the slightly panicked look of the demon master that she didn't want to stay here for long.
"Then let's go."
I looked around again, then led the two of them slowly back to the door.
Just as I turned around, I caught a glimpse of the stone statue in my peripheral vision, and I seemed to see...... The statue moved.
I was so frightened that I stopped and stared at the stone statue.
The stone statue's gray eyes, although I couldn't see the pupils, I felt as if they were staring at me.
The two people next to me noticed my abnormality and stopped as well.
Xiao Nan was puzzled: "Kitten, what's wrong with you?" What are you looking at? ”
Seeing that I didn't speak, the two of them followed my gaze and looked at the stone statue.
At this moment, the stone statue moved!
It really moved, and this time I stared intently, and I really saw it move!
The originally wide open mouth was actually like a human face, grinning at the corners of the mouth, looking at the expression, it was obviously a smiling face, this weird stone statue, actually smiling at me!
Although it was just a simple action, I was horrified to see that a face carved out of stone could actually change its expression?
Xiao Nan had already screamed and hid behind me, Ma Yun had already raised her palm, and a fiery fireball condensed out in the palm of her hand.
Xiao Nan's body squeezed behind me like chaff, and I could clearly feel the frequency of her body trembling.
She asked in a trembling voice, "Just now, it smiled, it smiled, right?" ”
I'd love to say that I must have been wrong, we must have been wrong.
However, not only me, but everyone noticed that this stone statue, it really showed a smiling expression.
I felt my scalp tingle for a while, and I grabbed the arms of the two of them and slowly stepped back, and as we retreated, we stared at the stone statue with a dead end, whatever the hell it was, whatever its attitude towards us, at this moment, I knew very well that this was definitely not the time to take it lightly.
It wasn't until I felt a hard touch behind me that I realized I had retreated to the door.
I patted Xiao Nan's arm: "You open the door." ”
I had been staring at the front, not daring to move, and I had drawn my one-handed sword and aimed it at the stone statue, regardless of whether the iron sword was useful against the stone or not.
After a long time, there was still no movement behind him.
I endured a huge tremor in my heart, on the one hand, it was to give myself courage, and on the other hand, I was too eager, I almost shouted: "Xiao Nan, open the door!" ”
I turned my head sideways to look, and saw Xiao Nan was sweating profusely, her face was pale, and she was standing behind me tremblingly, her eyes looked behind her, and then she looked at me, her expression hesitated, and she wanted to stop talking.
I hurriedly said, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Xiao Nan bit her lip, tears flowed down from the corners of her eyes, she looked around in panic, and trembled: "However, there is no door behind you!" ”
"No door?"
Hearing this, I was stunned.
I subconsciously turned my head and looked behind Xiao Nan's body.
Behind us, there is a wall that is indistinguishable from the rest of the world, and the gate that was originally behind us has actually disappeared!
So, where the hell did the door go?
I quickly looked around, and finally, I found the location of the gate.
"What an evil sect!"
The gate behind us, I don't know when, actually ran to the opposite of us, that is, behind the stone statue.
Hell, if we were a little off course when we were backing up and missed the location of the gate, then I can understand that.
But no matter how much you deviate, you can't deviate to the other side, right?
Could it be that we went in the wrong direction in the first place?
There's no reason for this, three people, it's not like all three of them have lost their sense of direction, right?
Ma Yun took a step forward, the fireball in her hand ready to go.
"Why don't you let me smash this statue all at once?"
I didn't speak, I was still wondering if these strange situations had anything to do with this stone statue.
Ma Yun saw that I didn't speak, and was about to throw the fireball out, but I hurriedly grabbed her.
"Wait, let's get around and see! The situation is not clear at the moment, and it may be that we are just going in the wrong direction. ”
Ma Yun had no choice but to give up, but the fireball in his palm was still releasing a heavy fiery aura.
"Let's go, let's go and see."
I grabbed them by the arm, almost against the wall, and walked to the other side.
As I walked, I kept staring at the statue, and in addition to that, I added one more thing to my attention: the gate.
I said that maybe we were going in the wrong direction, but I knew very well in my heart that it was very unlikely. Perhaps the walls around are all the same arc, if you don't pay attention to the two references of the gate and the stone statue, you may have to lose your way if you walk half a circle, even if there is a problem with this door, but this stone statue is still a very clear reference.
No matter how far we went, the statue remained in one direction, and we walked directly across from it, to the side, and finally to the back of it, and finally to the front of this strange gate.
"You two look at the stone statue, I'll open the door!"
I said as I stared at the door and walked over.
I raised my hand and pushed towards the door. At this time, I was so nervous that I felt my every move several times clearer than usual, and I could even feel my eyelids blinking subconsciously.
There was a hard touch in his hand.
It's cold, like walls, not wood.
My eyelids, which I had subconsciously lowered, opened at this moment.
The remnants of the wooden door on the retina were still in my mind, but I saw that behind the remnants, at some point, had become a hard wall, and the two overlapped, and the afterimage gradually disappeared, and finally what was left was the wall that was indistinguishable from the surroundings.
