Chapter 153: The Gatekeeper (3)

What was in the passage, An Xiaoyu didn't know at all.

Regarding the matter of the Heavenly Spirit, An Xiaoyu has only obtained the information from Xue Lian's memory and Shimen Village so far, and even among the so many creatures of the Ancient Ten Thousand Clans back then, there are only a handful of people who have seen the true face of the Heavenly Spirit.

They said that the Heavenly Spirit was the first race created by the Heavenly Dao himself, and that the Heavenly Spirit possessed a power comparable to that of the Heavenly Dao, and that the Heavenly Spirit had a transcendent position between Heaven and Earth. Therefore, An Xiaoyu didn't know if she would be able to take these people to the depths of the ruins safely.

Even, whether she can reach the place of the Heavenly Spirit Domain on her own trip is not certain.

Although he knew that this was the case, although he knew that it was impossible to predict what he would encounter, what kind of means did the heavenly spirits have, An Xiaoyu could imagine that the heavenly spirits were all creatures that existed like administrators according to the description of "comparable to the way of heaven".

But I didn't expect that as soon as they stepped into the door, before they knew it, their team would fall for such a trick.

Settle the rest of the people and let them rest against the stone wall, An Xiaoyu and Bai Sui fed them food and water one by one, and watched over them to rest.

An Xiaoyu looked at these people who had fallen into a deep sleep, and finally made up her mind, gritted her teeth and sat down cross-legged. She said to the hundred-year-old, "I want to see what is strange here, and you don't leave next to me." ”

Bai Sui nodded, and An Xiaoyu closed her eyes.

The spirit left the body in an instant, and after only one glance, An Xiaoyu was almost suffocated.

What kind of world is this?

There was no breath of the spirit on the cliffs on both sides, and the whole mountain range was like a dead thing, black and pitched, no wonder the feelings were confined to the walkway. In the eyes of the gods, this corridor, which looked quite normal to the naked eye, became like a passage to purgatory. Boundless darkness on both sides, and blazing fires beneath your feet.

An Xiaoyu finally knew why the person who entered the mountain range, after coming out of the mountain, changed from a sturdy man to a skinny appearance, it was because this one walked to constantly tempt people to numbly move forward, confusing your mind, burning your body, and there was no trickle left.

On the passage, the cycle of cause and effect seems to disappear, in the fire under the feet, in the mid-air, there is no soul of air, nor any silk thread of reincarnation, empty, this is a world that is infinitely barren except for life and death.

An Xiaoyu saw through the mystery of this place at a glance, and instantly returned to her own body. Baisui saw An Xiaoyu open his eyes, and hurriedly asked, "Do you see something?" ”

"This place is very mysterious, and I don't think they should go any further."

Bai Sui was a little stunned: "But..."

"This is not a place that mortals should approach." An Xiaoyu explained: "I guess when you came here the day before, you only walked a dozen steps, right? ”

Baitose nodded.

"This place is very weird, I can't understand it, I guess there are not many people in this world who can understand it, if they continue to walk, it is likely that they will be like the person the mountain people said, squeeze their flesh and lose their minds."

The two of them looked at the people lying on the ground, whether they were old or young, whether they were researchers or soldiers, their faces were already pale, and in just half a day, they were obviously old and emaciated. An Xiaoyu estimates that the design of this road is likely to come to an end, and a person's potential will be completely wiped out.

Glancing at the embarrassed hundred-year-old next to him, An Xiaoyu asked curiously: "Fortunately, I found out early, and the current loss is estimated to be able to make up for it, so let them go back as soon as it dawns tomorrow morning." I'm curious as to why you don't have anything. ”

Baisui also wondered: "Yes, why don't I have anything?" ”

An Xiaoyu glanced at Bai Sui, although he did not find any special circumstances in the state of the soul, but there must be some secrets on Bai Sui.

Since childhood, he has no father and no mother, has a special physique, and is safe and sound in the Heavenly Spirit Domain, which is simply a typical protagonist model...

While thinking wildly, An Xiaoyu paid attention to her surroundings, for fear that something would go wrong again. Finally, when the sun rose in the morning, several soldiers woke up first. When I woke up, everyone seemed to have no idea what had happened yesterday, but they just felt tired.

Jing Santing still remembered what An Xiaoyu said before he fainted, grabbed An Xiaoyu's hand and asked, "What kind of place is this?" ”

An Xiaoyu shook his head and said, "You can't continue to go forward in this place, if you go further, I'm afraid that your life will be in danger, and you have to go down the mountain immediately." ”

"No way!" Lao Xing was the first to shout, his voice still lackluster and hoarse: "We're already halfway there, we can't give up halfway, there is an ancient ruin in front of us that has never been discovered, that is our treasure, we have the responsibility to excavate it." ”

Pan Fu shouted loudly: "For the sake of research, we can sacrifice everything!" ”

"Tsk!" An Xiaoyu frowned: "Stupid! ”

As soon as he turned his head, An Xiaoyu took out a small thing from his pocket and handed it over, and said to the captain of the military squad: "I now order you to take them all down the mountain, and do not allow them to step through the stone gate again." ”

The team leader was startled when he saw the badge of the Ministry of Supervision in An Xiaoyu's hand, and he stood up and saluted: "Guarantee to complete the task!" ”

In everyone's surprised eyes, although these researchers were very unwilling, they couldn't openly oppose the military, glared at An Xiaoyu hatefully, and walked towards the bottom of the mountain.

Jing Santing asked before leaving, "What does the place where the gatekeeper live?" ”

An Xiaoyu shook her head: "It's just a guess, I'll explain it to you when I figure it out and I'll explain it to you when I go back." ”

"You're going to keep going?" Jing Santing asked, after the others heard it, they all looked back at An Xiaoyu, Pan Fu immediately felt that he had caught An Xiaoyu's handle, and said loudly: "You saw it, right?" He told us all to go down the mountain, and she went in by herself, just to steal state secrets! She must be..."

"Shut up!" Jing Santing finally got angry, completely ignoring the face of his old friend, and scolded directly.

Faster than Jing Santing's action is the dust wolf.

The Dust Wolf and the Frost Wolf are completely different personalities. The frost wolf is water by nature, although it is the law of ice, but it is tranquil and soft by nature, and likes to be calm. More often, it likes to guard An Xiaoyu's side, and only when An Xiaoyu and the administrator give orders, will it make a move.

However, as the first batch of flame spirits after the opening of the sky, the dust wolf was irritable and irritable, and killed crazy, and when he felt Pan An's malice towards An Xiaoyu, he immediately opened his dark eyes with light gold lines. With a roar, he turned into a huge black wolf and glared at Pan Fu.

Pan Fu was so frightened that he sat on the ground, and the others were also frightened, and they took several steps back. An Xiaoyu reached out and touched the neck of the dust wolf: "Chenchen, it's okay." ”

The dust wolf glanced at Pan Fu again, then turned over and changed back to the size of a palm, and landed on An Xiaoyu's backpack, scanning all the people, in the dark corridor, the dark hair with red hair, as if burning a faint flame.

The team leader was the first to come back to his senses and asked An Xiaoyu: "Do you really want to keep going?" ”

An Xiaoyu nodded: "Not only do I have to continue walking, but I also have to continue to walk at the age of 100." ”

Bai Sui was stunned for a moment and pointed to his nose: "I'm going too?" ”

With a sneer, An Xiaoyu looked at Pan Fu and asked, "Are you relieved now?" ”

Pan Fu's lips pursed twice, but he didn't dare to speak again. The captain nodded and led the team away.

An Xiaoyu dragged Jing Santing: "After you go out, contact the An family immediately, and say that I asked them to come, and it is best for the grandmaster to lead the team." ”

Jing Santing nodded silently, turned around and went down the mountain.

Only An Xiaoyu and Bai Sui were left in the aisle, An Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief and said to Bai Sui, "Let's go, let's continue." ”

Baisui didn't know why An Xiaoyu took him, and asked worriedly: "Is it okay to take me?" ”

"I don't think it's a big problem."

It's not a big problem, but isn't it still a problem? The hundred-year-old thought for a long time to figure it out, and when he turned around and wanted to go back with the team, he found that the team was gone.

As the steps go higher and higher, the cliffs on both sides get lower and lower. While walking, feeling the imprint of the cyan stone door in the soul, An Xiaoyu was gradually able to see the sunlight outside, but because there was no drag, An Xiaoyu and Bai Sui sped up, and by the time they reached the end of the aisle, their physical strength had been consumed a lot.

To be on the safe side, An Xiaoyu grabbed the hundred-year-old, took him to rest on the side of the aisle for a while, ate something, and then walked out and walked into the sunshine.

The first thing that catches the eye is a dilapidated square, a square on the top of a hill, the whole is built on the top of a flattened hill, the whole is octagonal, and there are eight huge statues standing in all directions, and the ground is carved with mysterious words and patterns.

But these words and patterns are already full of cracks, and the whole square is broken, as if no one has repaired it for thousands of years. Even the statues of the divine beasts in the eight directions are broken, and the only complete statue can only be said to be relatively complete.

These statues have either broken off half of their bodies, or only the part of their feet that is connected to the pedestal, and the better ones have their bodies preserved. The head of the beast fell at his feet, lying quietly, no one cared, and lost its majesty and glory.

The ground, the patterns, the statues, all the textures that make up them, are all a wonderful cyan jade, the color is verdant, and the interior seems to have a flow of brilliance, with an atmosphere compatible with simplicity and rebirth. An Xiaoyu squatted down and felt it, and what was fed back to her was a kind of divine soul that was higher than the level of all things in the world, An Xiaoyu's current level could only accept energy, but could not explore the internal laws and memories.

This is what the administrator said, the soul of heaven and earth, the essence of all things?

Bai Sui was already shocked next to him, and subconsciously took a few steps forward, turned around to look at the surrounding scenery, and said in surprise: "It's spectacular!" Whispers! Look, on the mountain wall! ”

An Xiaoyu followed the hundred-year-old finger and looked over, and saw the inscriptions that came out of the corridor, on the mountain walls separated by an abyss on both sides of the square, although they had been covered with cracks and moss, they could still be seen clearly. The font engraved on it is the Psychic Text.

The spirit passed through the body and threw itself into the mountain wall on the left. The distance was too far, An Xiaoyu was almost exhausted of the power of the divine soul, and the words recorded in the spirit medium text also returned to An Xiaoyu's divine soul.

Written on the left is - "The Abyss of Mountains and Seas".

Written on the right is - "The Gate of Heaven and Man".

"The abyss of mountains and seas, the gate of heaven and man..." An Xiaoyu replied to her soul, and read softly in her mouth, when this sentence was pronounced, the mark in An Xiaoyu's soul suddenly trembled, her eyes sharpened, and she looked at the opposite side of the square opposite the exit of the aisle, and the frost wolf and the dust wolf also raised their heads and looked at the same place.

It's that feeling of being watched again.

Bai Sui looked at An Xiaoyu: "Xiaoyu! ”

An Xiaoyu nodded, indicating that she also felt it. The feeling was clearer than what they felt in the camp. She didn't know where this feeling came from, but she knew that there must be something in this mountain that was silently observing them.

The whole mountain has no soul, and after passing through the aisle, mortals will lose their own nature, become the embodiment of savagery, and even want to slaughter all the people around them, how can there be such an evil spell between heaven and earth? Wouldn't such a spell be destroyed by the grave keeper?

Or is it the grave keeper here who is peeping into the world?

An Xiaoyu looked at this invisible eye for a full minute, she took a deep breath and asked loudly, "Who is Your Excellency?" ”

The next moment, a leisurely voice sounded throughout the valley, with an eternal echo, with the heaviness of endless years, with a sense of antiquity that rushed to the face.

"Gatekeeper!"
