Chapter 854: Confronting the same door
After these two strange events, Ye Xuan became more and more sure that there must be something unknown in this Sword God Treasure House.
Everyone watched out for each other and spent the night.
Early the next morning, the group continued to explore the Sword God Treasure Vault, all the way down to the ninth floor of the treasure house.
It seems that the further down you go, the more unsettling the aura around you becomes.
In a collection room on the ninth floor of the basement, the group found the escaped Yunlong Sect "junior brother" Chen Siming.
As soon as Chen Siming saw so many people catching up, he immediately jumped up in shock and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Chu Zhiqiu and the others sacrificed the treasure weapon, surrounded him, and reminded: "Be careful that he goes crazy." ”
"I'm not crazy!" Chen Siming showed a surprised expression, stretched out his hand and pointed at his fellow disciple Wang Pengju, and said loudly, "It's him! It was he who went crazy, he sneaked up on me that day! I was healing just now, otherwise I wouldn't have been alerted by you. ”
When everyone heard this, they all showed shocked expressions, turned their heads to look at Wang Pengju, and retreated a few steps back, keeping a distance from him.
"Am I crazy?" Wang Pengju showed a stunned expression, pointed at Chen Siming, and said sharply, "Obviously, you attacked me secretly, if the wound on my sword is half an inch deeper, your entire arm will be cut off by you!"
The two argued with each other.
Everyone didn't know who to trust for a while.
Chu Zhiqiu frowned, and interrupted: "Don't make noise yet." Chen Siming, you said that Wang Pengju attacked you secretly, so why did you flee at dawn that day?"
Chen Siming's eyes widened and said, "Can I not escape?" Wang Peng raised his palm and beat me to serious injury, and then rushed up with a large group of you people, carrying swords in hand, if I don't escape, I will be killed by you on the spot!"
Everyone recalled the expression on Chen Siming's face at that time, and it seemed reasonable to say that it was a serious injury and panic, and then fled in the wilderness.
Wang Pengju immediately refuted: "Don't listen to his nonsense, it's obvious that he attacked me and almost cut off my arm." ”
"Don't believe him. If you look at my countenance, you will know that my wound is very serious, and he hit me. He must be possessed by some demon, beware of him!"
"It's you who are possessed by demons, it's you who attacked me!"
The two people identified each other, argued, and never came up with a reason.
Ye Xuan watched quietly for so long on the side, and suddenly interrupted: "Shut up." Since you both said that there was something wrong with the other party, it is not difficult to know the truth. ”
"What can you do?" Chu Zhiqiu asked.
"Quite simply, no matter which of them panics, there is always something wrong with one of them. It's likely that you've fallen under some kind of magic spell, or you've been possessed by some unknowable demon. Directly probe the soul, whoever has a problem, you can know it at a glance. Ye Xuan said a way.
Chen Siming and Wang Pengju frowned at the same time, and did not immediately object, but they did not dare to agree.
Ye Xuan looked at the two of them, stretched out his palm and prepared to press the top of Chen Siming's head: "Stand up, don't move." Resisting means you have a problem. ”
Chen Siming immediately took a step back and said vigilantly: "How do I know that you are fine? Maybe that unknowable demon has already transferred to you." How could a spirit be randomly probed?"
Wang Pengju also immediately became vigilant: "That's right, if you suddenly attack the killer when you are exploring the divine soul, my divine soul will be annihilated in an instant." How could it be possible for you to explore at will!"
Ye Xuan spread his hands: "I'm helping you, you'd better think clearly, it's one of you who has a problem now." If we don't find out the truth, then the most correct thing for our team is to kick both of you out of the team. So, you have the right to refuse, so leave together. ”
Everyone thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "That's right." If you refuse to let us explore the spirits, we can only ask you to leave for the sake of everyone's safety. ”
Chen Siming has already suffered internal injuries, and acting alone is a matter of death.
He gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay to investigate my soul, but it's up to me to choose the person who wants to investigate my soul." ”
"Yes. It depends on who you believe more. ”
Chen Siming's gaze swept over everyone present, and finally looked at Chu Zhiqiu, and said helplessly: "Then let Brother Chu come." No problem, right?"
Chu Zhiqiu is the chief true inheritor of the Ten Holy Lands Cangyue Sea Pavilion, and his peaceful personality is indeed relatively convincing.
"Then let me investigate, and everyone step back. Chu Zhiqiu took a step forward as he spoke, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the top of Chen Siming's head, and smashed a stream of True Yuan into his sea of consciousness, and began to investigate the divine soul.
After a while, Chu Zhiqiu withdrew his hand, looked at everyone, and said, "His spirit is very normal, and he can't see any problems." ”
Chen Siming has no problem, which means that it is Wang Pengju who has a problem.
When everyone heard this, Qi Qi set their eyes on Wang Pengju, and when they thought of getting along with Wang Pengju all night last night, their hearts were a little hairy.
Wang Peng raised his eyes and said, "What do you think I'm doing? It's not me who has the problem, it's really not me." Chu Zhiqiu, I also let you investigate the soul, it's really not me!"
Chu Zhiqiu maintained his vigilance against Wang Pengju, stepped forward and reached out to hold the top of his head.
After a while, Chu Zhiqiu withdrew his hand, the expression on his face was very strange, he looked at everyone, shook his head and said, "His divine soul is no problem." ”
"I'll just say it. It's not me!" Wang Pengju had a look of injustice.
"How is that possible? What the hell is going on?" all of them wondered.
Chu Zhiqiu frowned and said, "Tell me carefully what happened to you that day, and don't miss any details." ”
"As I said, I went to relieve myself that day, and as soon as I entered the hallway, he drew his sword and attacked me. Wang Pengju said first.
"Fart! It was you who attacked me from behind, so I drew my sword and fought back. Chen Siming immediately retorted.
Everyone listened with puzzled expressions, and one of them guessed: "Could it be that they are too nervous and think that the other party attacked them, so they started fighting?"
Chu Zhiqiu shook his head slowly: "This possibility is very low, when we have cultivated to our realm, can't we even feel whether the opponent is hostile?" There is definitely something we don't know. ”
Ye Xuan thought about it and said, "There is another possibility, the 'demon' or 'evil art' that affected them has left their body. ”
Chu Zhiqiu immediately nodded in agreement: "Indeed, this situation is the most likely. ”
"So what now?"
Ye Xuan looked up at the surrounding walls and said, "There must be something terrible in this Sword God Treasure House, and there are only two ways now. Either find that thing and get rid of it, or go back the way you came and leave the vault. ”
The Sword God Treasury is a treasure left by the strongest sword god Xuan Lige in ancient times, and it is not easy to get in, and no one wants to go out like this.
Everyone looked at each other, and it seemed that there was only one path to choose.
