Chapter 871: A Hundred Turns and a Thousand Turns 1
"You're finally willing to say it?" asked Cang Wunian with a frown.
I heard the mountain god say "um", and then said lightly: "Get up." ”
When the sound of the mountain myth fell, Cang Wunian and Feng Yan felt their bodies involuntarily slowly stand up from the ground. But before they could stand firm, the surrounding scenery began to shake violently, and after a whirlwind, everything in front of them had changed dramatically.
They were still in the middle of the cave with no end in sight, but a low wall about a man high appeared out of thin air, and the wall stood in front of them, blocking the way forward, leaving only a gap that could not be counted.
The two subconsciously looked through the gap, but they were surprised to find that there was a low wall inside the gap, and a fairly wide passage was formed between the low wall inside and the low wall outside.
The two of them were a little hesitant, not knowing what the intention of the mountain god to conjure up two walls, when they heard the mountain god's leisurely voice coming from a very distant height in front of them: "This is a labyrinth that I have laid out when I have nothing to do, I have named it 'Hundred Turns and Thousand Returns', and now I will give it to you as a gift." ”
"Labyrinth?" Cang Wunian and Feng Yan both wondered.
They couldn't understand the old man's mind now, no, to be exact, they hadn't been able to read each other's mind in the first place. This old guy was idle and had nothing to do to make a maze out to block their way, and actually said it was a gift, which is full of weirdness no matter how you think about it.
If it was the Three Realms when they came, let alone a labyrinth, even the deepest ecstasy formation could be easily cracked by them with little effort.
But now they are in ancient times, in an unknown huge cave, in this place they have even been greatly inhibited from their own movements, how can they get through this so-called labyrinth as soon as possible?
Although the old man's tone was not salty, saying that this labyrinth was arranged when he had nothing to do, but ...... He seems to have been idle, hasn't he? Didn't he keep saying that he had been lonely for years?
Thinking of this, Feng Yan and Cang Wunian couldn't help but glance at each other very speechlessly, and the little compassion that had arisen before because of the lonely tone of this mountain god suddenly dissipated, but was replaced by strong dissatisfaction and faint worry.
Probably expecting this reaction from the little lovers, the mountain god said leisurely: "Don't worry, as long as you can find the right exit, you will be able to meet me, and I will tell you what you want to know." ”
However, as soon as he said this, the two of them became even more uneasy, and Cang Wunian keenly grasped the key point in the other party's words - the correct exit.
So he immediately asked in a deep voice, "What happens if I don't find the right exit?"
I heard the mountain god chuckle: "Heh, don't be nervous, there are indeed occasional dangers in this labyrinth, but it will definitely not hurt your life." If you're going the wrong way, you're going to be able to teleport back to the starting point and do it all over again. ”
"What is the purpose of the seniors' actions, if you are sincerely willing to see us, why do you want to make a labyrinth out and toss us?" Feng Yan couldn't help but ask.
"Hey, you two dolls!" the mountain god seemed to sigh helplessly, and then said something that made the two of them want to squirt bloodlessly: "Didn't I tell you what purpose I had at the beginning? I just want you to stay with me a little longer." ”
Cang Wunian and Feng Yan are really speechless now, these things that are difficult to deduce with common sense that this old guy has done, are still upside down to delay time! I really don't understand how he is so unwilling to be lonely, and how he has survived alone for so many years.
"Well, we also admit it in the hands of your old man, who made us not your opponent. We're in the labyrinth, hoping that you'll be able to deliver on your promise. Cang Wunian sighed and took Feng Yan's hand, and as he spoke, his footsteps had already entered the gap in the low wall in front of him.
"It's easy to say, but I'm really conflicted, I hope you will come out sooner, and I hope you don't come out......," the mountain god said, his voice seemed to be getting farther and farther away from them.
Hearing the last sentence of the mountain god, "It's better not to come out", Cang Wunian couldn't help but stumble under his feet, this old guy is really unreasonable, if you really want to let people go, let them go, if you don't want to let go, you have a tough attitude, anyway, his divine power is so strong, I'm afraid it's hard to meet an opponent in this world, why bother to make a simple thing so entangled?
After slandering the mountain god in his heart, Cang Wunian could only resign himself to pulling the wind and annihilation, like a headless fly, he casually found a direction at the first corner and began to move forward.
Not long after leaving, Feng Yan pulled Cang Wunian's hand and asked in a low voice, "Ah Nian, should we let go of our divine thoughts and overlook what this labyrinth is like?"
As a result, before Cang Wunian could answer, the voice of the mountain god came out faintly: "It's useless, there are countless key turns in this 'hundred turns and thousands of turns', and before you touch that turn, the road behind will not be revealed." You can only see the nearest passages to you now. ”
As if to completely dispel the idea of cheating for these two people, the mountain god quickly added: "And my labyrinth is not immutable, the so-called pulling a hair and moving the whole body, one of your choices will affect the changes of countless turns in the future." So, let's go honestly. ”
The two of them were silent when they heard the words of the mountain god, and they did not suspect that this old guy was deceiving them, because the other party did not need to do so at all.
So at the moment, they really don't seem to have any better way than to hit the big luck.
In this labyrinth, their mana has not been suppressed, but the bodies of the two are still very weak because of what they encountered after falling into this cave.
It was as if this body was not theirs in the first place, but was just a forced fusion of their soul and this body, so now they have to start from scratch little by little, like a toddler, and use their mana to escape or something, and they can only think about it.
Time passed slowly as they staggered, and it seemed like a long, long time before the first thing that broke them down happened.
They had come across a three-way junction, two of which looked flat and wide, while the other looked narrow, with some bumpy ground. In line with the usual understanding that there is always a smooth road after thorns, the two did not hesitate to choose the narrow and rugged road.
As a result, they walked for a long time, and they never found a turning point where they could choose the direction, which was like an extremely dark and far-reaching dead end, and the more people went forward, the more they had the illusion of embarking on a road of no return.
At last they reached the end of the road, and to their despair found that this was indeed the end, and there was not even a low wall to block their way, but they were directly sandwiched between the walls on both sides of the narrow road, facing a certain part of the cave wall.
"Is there any mistake!How can it still be like this?" Cang Wunian almost scolded his mother.
Feng Yan looked at the mountain wall in front of him and was speechless, judging by the distance they had traveled before, the straight-line distance between them and the mountain god had not been shortened much, this labyrinth was called "Hundred Turns and Thousands of Turns", among which there were naturally countless places that twisted and turned, especially this narrow passage with no way forward, which forced them to waste a lot of time laterally.
"What should I do? Do you want to go back the way you came?" asked Feng Yan weakly.
She'd rather have some mechanism or formation or something like that would teleport them directly back to the original entrance, which would save a lot of time.
However, in front of them, except for the walls on both sides and the mountain walls in front of them, it didn't look like there was any formation at all, and looking back at the way that could not be seen at a glance, the two of them really wanted to tear down the walls in this labyrinth.
Cang Wunian took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go, you can't sit here and wait for death." ”
So the two of them walked back along the same path with great difficulty, and after walking for a long, long time, they finally returned to the three-way junction again.
This time, neither of them was in a hurry to make a choice, Cang Wunian thought for a while, and said to Feng Yan: "Yan'er, why don't you use Luo Shutuo to calculate and see which direction you should go." ”
As a result, Feng Yan glanced at him helplessly, and said sullenly: "Do you think I haven't thought of this method?"
Cang Wunian was stunned for a moment, then his face changed, and he asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?
Feng Annihilation spread his hands, "The Vena rubbing piece is gone, maybe we lost it when we experienced a snowstorm at the foot of the snowy mountain." ”
Cang Wunian frowned deeply when he heard this, thought about it and asked, "Even if there is no Vena rubbing, with your ability, you shouldn't be able to perceive the direction at all, right?"
Feng Yan smiled bitterly: "Don't forget, this labyrinth was made by the mountain god in ancient times, maybe he used to arrange this labyrinth for a longer time than you and me combined, how could it be casually calculated." It's like ......"
As she spoke, Feng Yan's face suddenly changed, and she felt as if a vague aura flashed in her mind, but she couldn't grasp the thought of the moment just now that she wanted to savor it carefully.
"What is it?" asked Cang Wunian hurriedly.
Feng Yan frowned, and after thinking for a long time, her expression turned fierce, she took Cang Wunian's hand and resolutely walked to the center of the three-way intersection.
