Chapter 172 Planks
With the light of the fire, Su Cheng, whose face was flat, was not as nervous as Zhu Shubing and the others drew their swords and guarded, he looked east and west, and first looked around with interest. After discovering Helen, who was looking at the two corpses with a slightly sad spirit, he saw the problem in an instant, and stepped forward to pat her on the shoulder and comforted her silently.
As soon as he entered the antechamber, he wondered why these two corpses died so prominently, and now he finally had an answer.
In fact, unlike the others, Sioux City already has the passive ability of Night Instinct, which allows him to see both eyes in a dark environment.
Therefore, he already knew everything about the environment in the front hall, but since others couldn't see it clearly, and this looked more like a means of intimidation than an attack method, he didn't plan to say it to be scary, and he just wanted everyone to walk through the front hall like this.
"Be careful, everyone, those evil spirits may be hiding in this antechamber!" Wu Feng quickly blocked in front of Li Jia, and at the same time comforted softly: "Don't worry, I will definitely protect you!" β
Seeing this, Li Jia, who didn't talk much, showed a gentle smile and thanked Wu Feng: "It's really troublesome for you." β
Catching a glimpse of several companions being frightened by these scenes, as well as Wu Feng's exaggerated performance, Su Cheng was amused in his heart, and also said comfortingly: "Actually, there is no need to be nervous, I have observed in a special way, there is no negative energy here, and it is still safe for the time being." β
There is no negative energy, that is, there is no evil spirit and evil thing.
This is because although these two things are incorporeal, as a human race, it is difficult for them to use the naked eye to capture their positions, and they seem to be really invisible. But in fact. They still exist, but not physically. It's just on the level of energy.
Zhu Shubing, who was the leader, pursed his lips disdainfully when he heard this, and said unhappily: "Hmph." Don't say it sooner! β
But while she didn't immediately put away her weapon, she visibly relaxed, no longer keeping her heart on guard.
Even Zhu Shubing, who didn't deal with Su Cheng very well, didn't say anything, but in his heart he actually had to admit that Su Cheng's strength was indeed very strong, and he was always targeted, and his scheming was heavy enough - just looking at the relationship between those apprentices of the Exorcism Association and this person was getting better and better, but they didn't know that the person who killed their companions and even buried their bodies was the other party.
Therefore. Although what Su Cheng did was completely in line with everyone's interests and allowed them to advance the plot smoothly, Zhu Shubing hated this person in his heart, and he didn't plan to change anything - specially, this person's speech was extremely annoying, which made her angry.
This guy is also a "player" who treats NPCs and artificial intelligence as items, just like that Wu Feng, it's disgusting. Zhu Shubing looked at Su Cheng, who had gotten a lot closer to Helen and the three of them. I thought disdainfully in my heart.
And after Wu Feng heard Su Cheng's words, even with his face, he couldn't help but feel slightly numb, and he didn't dare to turn his head to look at Li Jia behind him. What he said just now was righteous enough. even posed in a pose that he thought was quite handsome.
Now, he can't imagine how the unforgiving guys in the major discussion forums will laugh at him, along with the scene of people slamming down not long ago.
Everyone also had their own thoughts. However, even if Su Cheng knew about it, he didn't bother to pay attention to it. Just because after Chen Liu summoned the firelight, he immediately seized the time to observe the environment that had become brighter.
When the darkness is gone. Sioux City discovered that this one antechamber did not completely occupy the entire floor, but coexisted with a reception room. It is only the space that divides the space in two, not the bluestone walls but a wide arch.
Strictly speaking, this floor does not seem to be just one floor, because the hall here is two stories high, and the small window openings are in the upper part of the wall, but at this time it is blocked by unknown objects, making the light scarce, if it were not for Chen Liu's firelight, he would not have found that there were windows here.
Sioux strode forward and walked towards the wide arch, his right hand caressing the spotless texture of the door. The texture is carved very delicately, and it seems that someone takes care of it from time to time, or has a cleaning enchantment, which is moist and smooth to the touch, and even has a feeling of jade in reality, which looks extremely mysterious and gorgeous.
After observing for a while, when Su Cheng realized that he couldn't see the meaning of the texture, he finally said, "Let's go, we've stayed here long enough." β
However, Su Cheng said this, except for Helen behind him, the rest of the people only hummed a few times, vaguely revealing negativity and reluctance to act. This is quite a dangerous precedent, after all, for a live show, the best time to watch is when the participants are engaged in performance, forgetting their identities and making real temperaments.
If some of the participants start to deal with it passively, the essence of the live show will be ruined, and it will no longer make sense to broadcast live or not.
Therefore, since Su Cheng agreed to help Senior Sister Bai Qishuang, he turned his heart sideways, and regardless of what thoughts those people behind him had, he suddenly pushed the arch open with both hands.
Pushing open the door, Su Cheng's muscles were tense, ready to use his fist to fight any creature or evil spirit that tried to raid him. Behind the door, however, there was only an empty reception room and a large long table that could seat a dozen or twenty people.
Seriously and quickly crossed the gate, Su Cheng inspected the place at lightning speed, and the eyes of the holy light kept scanning until he was sure that nothing was hidden in it, and then he said behind him: "Everything is normal, nothing suspicious." β
It was only then that he carefully observed the dΓ©cor of the reception room. In fact, although he could feel that this place had been left unattended for a long time, even so, he could easily see the luxury of the original decoration - the towering ceiling was decorated with intricate monster carvings, the stone pillars at the four corners were carved with fierce warriors, and the gold and silver lines were intertwined into an interwoven pattern, completely concealing the sense of decay caused by the dust.
At this time, the few people who walked into the reception room with Sioux City were also checking here, except for Cindy, who didn't want to touch the dust, they all looked around, as if they were looking for something, just like Sioux City.
At this moment, Zhu Shubing gently touched the bottom of the long table, and suddenly, a snapping sound suddenly came from it, and when she withdrew her arm from the bottom, there was an extra thick wooden board full of words on her hand!
Finding the plank faster than Su Cheng, Zhu Shubing showed a rare smile, and immediately looked at Su Cheng who was still carefully inspecting on the other side, and announced loudly: "I found it!" (To be continued......)
