Chapter Twenty-Five: Back to the Chamber of Secrets
People like nostalgia, and when they think about it, it feels like a lifetime.
At this time, in the Great Mirror Palace, the mirror array rotates at high speed like a machine. Due to the fact that the innermost mirror is connected so that it is difficult for sunlight to penetrate it, the previous huge sun begins to shrink gradually, and finally only the middle area is illuminated. However, only the rotating door occasionally leaked a ray of light, forming a faint band of light that moved with the center of the circle.
The high-speed rotating mirror is like an electric fan facing it, hunting and hunting, but in the middle of the night, he suddenly puts his hand into it. They were startled, thinking that Midnight's hand was scrapped. The mirror in front of me stopped suddenly.
The edge of the mirror is faster than a blade at high speed.
I saw Midnight firmly holding the mirror, that is, on the edge of the birth gate of the mirror array, and the mirror stopped abruptly. Guanglong's eyes widened, how did he do it, like someone used his fingers to force the fan to stop. He must not have relied on luck alone, knowing that a mistake in judgment is the price of a hand.
Meow meowed: "Voice, midnight judges the location of the exit through the sound, and each circle of mirrors has two exits." No matter how fast he spins, he can still hear the subtleties in the sound of the wind, which is not difficult for Midnight, who has a keen sense of hearing, plus his windy speed. Of course, you don't have the courage to judge the right one. ”
Guanglong nodded in agreement, Midnight's behavior must not be equated with the practice of ordinary people, he always surprises people.
Midnight scoffed at Meow Meow's explanation, crossed the first layer of mirrors, and said, "Take a step first, and there will be a period later." ”
"Wait," the sick man also expressed helplessness at Midnight's repeated insight into the mechanism of the mirror array, but more admiration, and said at the moment, "Do you know what you are doing?" You're going to have to face the whole party of spades, and you're going to regret it. ”
"If you don't have enlightenment, you won't have a showdown." Midnight weighed the blue skull in his hand, and he actually snatched the thing from Guanglong's hand in front of everyone! Everyone was horrified, was it magic or was the real thing in his hands, and what Guanglong got was just a fake? As soon as Midnight's hand loosened, the mirror began to spin at high speed again.
Looking at Guanglong's empty hand again, it was indeed snatched away by midnight. It's really a character that can only appear in comics.
The sick man said, "He's the perfect killer." Isn't it a killer who needs to have the speed of the wind, a sensitive sense of hearing, a cool head, a good sense of observation, and a ruthless heart, not to be bound by the world? Bull Head Horse Noodles, it's the Party of Spades that specializes in assassination missions. He spoke with a look of infinite yearning and pride in his group. And then it dimmed.
The killer, in the eyes of the midnight, you can see some indifference and uninhibitedness, it is the determination of the empty eyes, the realm of the void that makes people look cold.
Midnight just went away quietly, and when he came. Guanglong thought that through this method, he would definitely be able to break through the mirror array, but the opportunity to go home with Concubine Nan was gone, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart.
Everything was calm again, and everyone began to clean up the mess. After Guanglong appeared in the middle of the night, he has been in a state of cultivation, and his physical strength has gradually become normal, but he began to get cold in a thin filial piety clothes; The sick man had already recovered from the battle with Guanglong, and now he felt a little powerless, and it seemed that he could not accept the old age; Fei Nan's spirit was much better, and her face was slightly red, and she ate some food to replenish her strength with the help of Meow Meow.
The sick man turned off the mechanism of the mirror array, after all, he couldn't trap midnight. The light became abundant again, illuminating the entire hall. It turned out that the mechanism was in the center icicle, and he did sit by the icicle when he opened it.
Crystal Skull, the supreme relict of the Party of Spades. It is said that there are 13 of them, and if you get them together, you can find the treasures of the legendary rich country, and more importantly, find their holy places. What Midnight once said to Guanglong is intriguing:
If you can create us, you can also create skulls.
Do you want Guanglong to draw a crystal skull in his work? It's not impossible, Lao Wang's tampering is enough to subvert the original plot is proof of it.
Midnight finally got his wish and got what he had always dreamed of. What's next for him? Will I ever see him again. Guanglong didn't have any nostalgia for the skull, but he was just nostalgic about Midnight's promise to take them away. Was the last opportunity to leave this place wasted?
Meow meowed: "It's too late to regret it now, let's get out of here first." ”
"Let's go, there's nothing to be nostalgic about." The sick man spoke, obviously he didn't care about the miracle he had created, but instead complained about Guanglong's destruction of the mirror array. Now Guanglong understands that the mirror array is his child, and the design of the mechanism inside has his uniqueness and way of life, and his good intentions can be seen.
The mirror array has resumed the shape of gossip, fortunately, there is a sick man to lead, although it is tortuous to walk inside, but the heart is a lot more steady, and there is no feeling of being lost. In fact, the place where Guanglong destroys is that you can get out quickly by shortcuts, but if you do that, you will definitely expose the scars of the sick master.
Guanglong admired the sick master's divine skills, and asked curiously: "Master, why are so many hidden passages designed in caves?" ”
The sick man's face finally stretched.
"Actually, this is a prison." Meow Meow explained the reason, "My master and I are temporarily in charge of the prison. Gain useful information and study tactics. It shouldn't have been said to outsiders, but Fei Nan is a friend of Brother Long, and I hope you don't take the secret out, and you know the consequences. ”
Prison, did they fall into the prison of the Party of Spades? Looking at Meow Meow's whip, it is indeed a posture of torture to extract confessions.
The sick man said: "Originally, many prisoners of war were imprisoned here, and we did human experiments, but fortunately, there was no waste, and the experiments were very successful." "No wonder it's deserted.
Fei Nan was shocked and said, "Human experiments? ”
The sick man smiled: "Yes, you should have realized it a long time ago." The previous secret room is actually a test for you. ”
Guanglong thought about the situation when he first came here. Tied to a stone bed by Midnight, the stone chamber was poorly furnished and dimly lit. Even the stone gate is designed to weigh more than 1,000 catties, and now I think about it, there must be a mechanism controlling it. However, there are traces of a prison cell.
"Experiments?" The two thought of the sarcophagus in the secret room, "The person in the hanging coffin is the test subject?" ”
The sick man and Meow Meow nodded, "Yes, there is a hanging coffin in several secret rooms here, and live experiments are secretly conducted. For the sake of safety, they had to be sealed off. ”
As they spoke, they stepped out of the mirror. Facing the secret room destroyed by Guanglong and Fei Nan, there is a big hole in the stone wall that is very eye-catching.
Guanglong reluctantly looked back at the magnificent mirror array, just like when he saw it for the first time. And the changes that happened inside made Guanglong can't believe it, and now he is back alive. Goodbye Mirror, you bring not only shock but also reflection. May the light be with you.
Entering the long-lost secret room, it was a mess. The sarcophagus is nestled at the entrance of the cave, and the lid of the coffin is hidden. The sunlight from the cave ** shone into the secret room, and there were festering corpses lying on the ground, and the death was terrifying. For the savior, they have not yet had time to bury it. Guang Long thought that he would encounter the corpse insect again, but he didn't find it, and it seemed that it had dispersed.
The sick man said angrily, "What did you do? ”
So Fei Nan told the sick man how they met and got out of the secret room, but he didn't mention how the people in the sarcophagus helped them.
Meow Meow frowned when she heard this, pondering from time to time. The sick man said, "Really, my poems have been ruined by you. Sure enough, it was a poem he inscribed.
Fei Nan said sorry, and then asked, "Is this also a prison cell?" What kind of test did you give him? ”
The sick man said: "Of course it's not a prison cell, don't you see that there is still a poem inscribed by me?" There was really not enough room, so it was temporarily used as a prison cell. Lying down people, because of the body mutation of the living experiment. Hopefully, the corpse poison will not be contagious. ”
Guanglong and Fei Nan had long known the horror of the walking corpse insects in their bodies, but at this time, they still felt frightened when they said it through the mouth of the sick man. Still contagious? That Guanglong and Fei Nan?
The sick man said that the walking corpse worms first existed in ancient times, and they knew little about their habits. Now it is only in the primary research stage, and its activity is somewhat inert, so the parasitic human body is passive. Moreover, the control of people does not meet the ideal requirements, so the variation of people is also very different.
The sick man finally said, "I don't know much about the walking corpse worms, so let's get out of here first." ”
"There's an exit here? Is it from above? Guanglong really couldn't see any exit, looked into the depths of the ceiling, and remembered that it had fallen from the sky.
Fei Nan and Meow Meow didn't know the essentials, looking around for no exit, and then looked at the sick man together.
The sick man stroked his beard and smiled: "Isn't there anything special in the secret room?" He was smug, and apparently there was a commendable mechanism in the secret room.
Except for the sarcophagus and the poems on the stone walls, there was nothing else in the empty secret room. Could it be? I saw the sick man's eyes wandering, Guanglong followed, and the dragon flew and the phoenix danced on the stone wall. Those grooves of consistent depth seem to be the answer.
Guanglong suddenly said: "It's a poem, and the exit is in your inscription poem." ”
The sarcophagus in the secret room has been destroyed by Guanglong and Fei Nan, and only the poems on the wall remain.
The sick man said: "Yes, the mechanism is in the poem, but ordinary people will never unravel it." ”
The pen on the wall is a dragon and a snake, and every stroke has a rule, the same depth, God knows where the organ will be.
Guanglong looked fascinated, and at this time, Fei Nan obviously didn't care about the words on it, no matter how he studied the sick man, he would still take them out. Fei Nan was pondering what to do with the corpses on the ground.
Fei Nan said: "The master said that the corpse may be poisoned. What about his body, let's bury him. "Guanglong knows that Fei Nan values love and righteousness, and will not ignore the corpse of his benefactor, no matter how he says, he can't be violent in the wilderness.
The sick man's face was embarrassed. Could it be that he was buried here in a big way, of course he felt that this person's body was worthy of being buried next to his poem. Guanglong felt that the deceased was not an ordinary person, otherwise how could he carry a dragon knife with him.
Meow said: "The soil here is dense and hard, and it is inconvenient to dig, so it is not suitable for burial." And if you bury it, you don't dare to guarantee that the corpse poison will not spread, and the best way is to burn it. ”
Guanglong Chong Feinan nodded, this is the only way at the moment. It is obviously not suitable to be buried here, he Jiuquan is not at peace if he knows it, so it is better to cremate it directly.
Fei Nan was stunned for a moment, and finally agreed, which can be regarded as an explanation to the life-saving benefactor.
