Chapter Twenty-Nine: Light Fragrance
The sunlight outside the fort seemed to be extraordinarily bright, and it seemed that the huge Tangjia Fort was too depressing, and ordinary disciples could not even walk at will, so they could only move in the place where they belonged.
The grass and trees on the side of the road were still stained with a little dew, but fortunately, the path in front of the suspension bridge was paved with gravel, so you wouldn't touch these things while walking, and you weren't afraid of getting your clothes wet, although it didn't hinder walking, but it was uncomfortable after all.
Only a few steps away, but a moment has passed, stop and look at the blue stone steps in front of you all the way down and extend, there is no end, only a rough count in front of you is not less than a hundred, although the sun can not shine into but it does not look dim, but despite this, it also seems a little cloudy, frowning lightly and then stretching, the mouth said to himself: "It's interesting."
Neither guarded nor boundary, it looks like an ordinary blue stone staircase, but it gives people a sense of depth, even if they don't know what the situation is inside, they can see that the atmosphere here is a little wrong, so people will not break in casually.
Not to say that there is a task today, that is, no, when I saw this place that day, I was already curious, but I had to miss it, and now I see it again, I can't say that I want to explore it, even if the atmosphere is not right, I have come, I should satisfy my curiosity, not to mention that the map given by Senior Sister Yu has been marked, and it must be dangerous to be listed as a Tang Gate Forbidden Land, but let me complete it, with my strength, I must be able to deal with it, a thought turned, my face couldn't help but fade, the corners of my mouth smiled, and I stepped out without the slightest hesitation.
Since stepping on the first step of the blue stone steps on the road to feel a cool under the feet, through the shoes can also feel the coolness, I don't know whether it is rarely exposed to the sun, or the material is special, step by step, not slow, but it seems very indifferent, although it is only the entrance but do not dare to be careless, silently transport the Seven Absolute Heart Sutra, adjust the state to the best.
Although the steps are slow, there is no pause, and there is no number of steps, only the light is getting less and less, the right side is suspended in the air, and the mountain wall on the left side is sparsely growing with various trees, I can't say the name, I can only vaguely see the entrance of the green stone steps when I look back, but I can't see the end of the stone steps when I look forward, the sun is thick outside, and here because of the various trees on the mountain wall, it seems a little cold, and it seems that it has become two worlds across this section of the road.
"Is this road leading to the bottom of the cliff?"
Recalling what I saw when I first came to Tangmen, plus the map given by Senior Sister Yu, Tangjiabao looks like a back word, Tangjiabao is a small mouth in the middle, surrounded by mountain peaks, although I didn't see the back peak of Tangjiabao, but the stairs that I walked through when I came to Tangjiabao are undoubtedly opened on a mountain road, and the vacancy between the two mouths is a cliff, just like a natural barrier, this blue stone step road spirals downward, and it seems to lead to the bottom of the cliff.
"But isn't there water at the bottom of the cliff?" But then I remembered that I saw the mountain peak and waterfall on the right side that day, and I had some questions, and I looked down at the bottomless deep pool from the suspension bridge, isn't this road leading to the bottom of the cliff?
"You will know when you see it."
Now that I think about it, it's better to go straight to the bottom, let go of my slightly frowning brows, and continue to walk forward.
"Huh?"
I don't know how long I walked, I just felt that there was no sunlight directly penetrating, because there are seven absolute heart sutras, although there is no color as outside, but the things in front of you are still clearly visible, the blue stone road under the feet has come to an end, the last stone step is a platform, the platform is only half a person high, the eyes move slightly, there are cliffs on both sides, there is a stream flowing under the platform that is not more than the width of an adult's arm, the vegetation on both sides is thick, the sound of flowing water is not loud but endless, it seems to be very energetic, look along the stream, Not far from the downstream direction is connected to a waterhole, and I can't help but make a soft noise, which is very unexpected.
Eyes turned to the waterhole, slightly swept over, the waterhole is embedded between the two mountain walls, can not see the edge, the pool surface does not fluctuate much, the water color is quiet but can not see the bottom, the heart can not help but a cold, although rarely go out to play, but also know that the mountain waterhole looks clear but deeper, this creek looks like an adult's arm width, compared to this water Tan is simply different from cloud and mud, although there are topography reasons, but it can give people the feeling that this creek has developed this deep pool!
"Interesting." sighed softly in his mouth, such a scene, I can't help but feel weird, and I can't help but have the idea of finding out, but it's not this deep pool, but the source of this stream!
Thinking that this task was to take the five-step snake liquid, the five-step snake could not live in this deep pool, and it was necessary to go up the stream, and his face couldn't help but smile slightly, and then set off.
"Click."
Jumped up from the platform, fell to the ground and seemed to have stepped on a dead branch, but there was no other noise here except the sound of running water, not even a sound of insects, and suddenly there was a shock in my heart, and then I felt that the atmosphere was a little depressing.
A look of helplessness flashed in his eyes, although he had practiced "Steps", after all, he had not reached the realm of Tang Shaofei and Senior Sister Yu, and he couldn't land silently, and it might be possible not to make a sound on the flat ground, but it was a little difficult in such an environment.
After being silent for a moment, I didn't notice any other changes, and I couldn't help but feel a little nervous in my heart, if I said that some insects and snakes would not be surprised by this strange noise, but it was still so quiet, this kind of depression was really uncomfortable.
Walking forward again, I felt that the silence here was a little too much, and I didn't dare to be careless, I was a little more careful, and my facial senses felt a lot sharper than usual, and it seemed that the Seven Absolute Heart Sutras could play a better role in this situation.
I felt a faint fragrance coming into my nose, vaguely vaguely seemed to be there, but this fragrance was a little familiar, after a little thought, I took out the letter with the map of the Tang Gate sent by Senior Sister Yu before, and gently smoked the tip of my nose, very light, very light, like a floral fragrance and a body fragrance, sure enough, it was the taste on this letter! The shadow of Senior Sister Yu couldn't help but appear in front of me.
"Could it be that Senior Sister Yu also has a body fragrance?"
Flashed such a thought, a strange look on his face, it is rare for me to have such a mentality, now in this situation, I can still have such a thought, with a little funny in my eyes, I was still a little nervous, but after this thought was diluted a lot, with a little ease, I walked forward again.
"Sss "Sss
When I turned around, I could clearly see the bluestone platform not far away, but after walking for a while, a few hiss suddenly broke the silence.
I'm not afraid that you will come, I'm afraid that you can't hide it, Shicai's mood has eased, and suddenly at this moment I heard a light sound although I was surprised, but there was not much surprise, just follow the prestige, not far ahead, the unknown trees poking out of the mountain wall on the right side extended a few special branches, the color is verdant, there is no white line, bright and abnormal, even here it seems a little dazzling, the small eyes are pitch black, and the oval head is raised with a small mouth to hiss softly, it seems to be a warning, but it is a few emerald green snakes.
"Oh? It's just a few little guys. ”
Seeing that the sound was only a few small emerald green snakes, it seemed that the meaning was very unkind, and when I recognized this thing, I was also a little surprised, and I couldn't help but mutter.
