Chapter 14: The Floating Tower

"The tower master, the palace master has an order, and he specially brought the newly accepted female apprentice Lian'er here to practice. The lady dragged Lian'er, who was hiding behind her, to the man who was called the tower master.

"Oh? It's really strange, the palace master has always accepted disciples to teach the exercises in person, why is he willing to send his beloved disciples to the Futu Pagoda today? Not to mention that this child is so young, I'm afraid that he won't survive more than three days with me. The person in front of him was bald, and there was a string of dark red Buddha beads hanging around his neck. He is as tall as a bear and has scars all over his face. The eyes are as cunning and fierce as an eagle's eye, and the Zen staff in his hand is like a thousand pounds, and the figure of the person shakes every time he lands.

"The tower master can rest assured, since the palace master sent Lian'er in, he intended to cultivate her, if she really can't stand the tempering, it is fate to die here. The lady stretched out her hand and took out a jade pendant and stuffed it into the hand of the master of the Futu Tower, and said softly: "This girl, not only missed the palace master's major event, but also offended the palace master of the Liuqin Palace, and she should be unlucky, even if the palace master is benevolent, I am afraid that the master of the Liuqin Hall will not let her go....." After speaking, she threw a package on the ground and turned to leave.

"I, I, I ....."

"What are you going to say?"

"I, I don't want to die....." The blood and violence of the past few days have frightened Lian'er to the extreme, but compared to the person in front of her, it is nothing more than that. Lian'er didn't understand how there could be such a terrifying person in the world. She didn't understand why everyone wanted her to die, and they had to do everything they could to get her to die, if they hadn't left the house, if Yelian hadn't deceived her brother at the beginning, then they should still be able to live happily in their hometown, and they wouldn't be separated from their brother.

"Hahaha...... Little doll, do you know that everyone who comes in here says they don't want to die. It's just that there are very few people who can go out. Well, seeing that you're still a doll, I can grant you a wish. ”

Terror begets despair, despair begets anger, anger begets fearlessness. A seven or eight-year-old child, who should be an innocent and romantic age, gradually sprouted hatred, since the only way to walk is death, then what is there to be afraid of. Lian'er wiped away the tears on her face, and her small body stood in front of the tower master, like an ant against heaven and earth, but she was not afraid.

"Well, in that case, I don't want to call Lian'er anymore. The childish voice was extremely cold.

"Why?" Seeing the change in the expression of the little doll in front of him, the tower owner was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that this child's last wish was to change his name.

"I hate the name. If it weren't for it, I wouldn't be separated from my brother, and if it weren't for it, I wouldn't have been caught here by the Lord of the Xuanhua Palace. ”

"Interesting, interesting. You're a little bit different. Okay, then I want to think about what I should give you a name........", the tower master rubbed the top of his head, racked his brains and said: "Just call it, just call it Fuyuan, Futu Tower's wish." ”

"Yes", the little girl didn't want to say anything more, and turned to pick up the package.

"Do you know why this place is called the Futu Tower?" said the tower master as he walked: "The tower here is nine stories high, the first floor is broken thoughts, the second layer is fists and feet, the third layer is internal strength, the fourth layer is telekinesis, the fifth layer is peep, the sixth layer is illusion, the seventh layer is entry, and the eighth layer is transcendent. There are countless deaths on each floor, but the higher you go, the fewer people die, do you know why?"

"Why?"

"Because only by climbing to the ninth floor can you get out of this floating tower. But the old man has been here for more than ten years, and no one has been able to go out so far. ”

"Then how do you get to the Nine-Story Tower?"

"It's very simple, kill the people in the eight-story tower below, or if no one dares to stop you, you can climb the nine-story tower. Of course, if someone can really get out of the Futu Tower, the positions of the four hall masters can be chosen at will. Because the person who can walk out of the Futu Pagoda will inevitably have the ability to be above the four hall masters. The tower master paused and said, "However, don't think how easy it is, not only is there limited food every day, but the people in the tower will also prevent people who want to climb up, because every time they go out, there will be a person in the tower to be buried." Of course, if you climb the second floor, then you will receive much better treatment. Okay, here's the first tower, let's go inside. After saying that, the tower master opened the iron door and threw it in with the collar of the floating wish.

With a knock on the door, he was cut off from the rest of the world, surrounded only by blood, hunger and death. There were about 20 people in the first floor of the tower, because the space was small, everyone ate and drank here, and the light was insufficient, it was dark and damp and foul-smelling. The people of Tari are yellow and thin, and they are described as withered. Seeing a doll coming in, his vigilant gaze suddenly relaxed. No one provoked, no one spoke, and no one tried to climb the second tower. Although the daily food is barely enough to feed the stomach, at least you can survive. If someone climbs the second tower, whether they succeed or not, there will inevitably be deaths and injuries. In this way, more than twenty people are like corpses every day, except for breathing to prove that they are still alive. Time, hunger, and death all wear down people's will, and only when new people come in will they arouse everyone's sense of survival. If the newcomer shows signs of climbing the second-story tower, he will be killed by everyone immediately.
