Chapter 289: Without a Trace
This sudden appearance and sudden disappearance of the sound, can also affect people's minds, everyone feels very familiar, I have heard it many times before, the only difference is that this time I heard it, it is no longer a simple "ding" sound. But if you think about it, the sounds are really similar, maybe they are really the same sound, but with the change of distance and environment, the sound also changes.
"Did you notice that the voice just now seems to be coming from the right?" Han Wei waited for a while before he remembered this question, but he was not sure, because the previous sound had not been able to capture which direction it came from.
With Han Wei's reminder, Li Hua and the others remembered one after another that the voice was indeed coming from the right side of the palace, and it came from outside the palace. What will this mysterious voice be, everyone does not need to discuss, they unanimously decided to take a look, this palace has not found a way out, anyway, it is better to grasp the line of the mysterious voice. The mysterious voice has been appearing from time to time since entering the corridor, and perhaps it is the key to the entire underground palace.
Quickly out of the palace, everyone unnaturally looked back at the palace, just now everyone had different thoughts, and everyone had a sense of boredom in their hearts, and the source of boredom came from the palace. Didn't delay for long, immediately walked along the right side of the palace, a bluestone road about three meters wide, one side is the palace wall, one side is the cliff, in fact, everyone knows that the so-called cliff height is only a few tens of meters, but the fog is shrouded, I feel like I am in the clouds, and the height of dozens of meters is like an abyss.
The bluestone road in front of you is on the edge of the cliff, there is a white jade guardrail, and all the white cloud patterns are carved on it, which is particularly delicate and luxurious, and it also reveals a breath of dust that does not stick to the world. It is conceivable that the jade guardrail is taken away directly, it is a peerless treasure, and it is truly priceless. Walking along the bluestone road, it is not a straight line, there is a certain arc, and the distance that can be seen is not too far, because there is a white fog to obscure it, it seems that the whole palace is in the clouds. I really can't understand where these white fogs come from, I want to see them closely, but I always keep a certain distance from people. When Han Wei and the others walked forward for a few minutes, and then looked back, the road was already blocked by the white fog.
At this time, the front and back were shrouded in white fog, and the only thing that could be seen clearly was about forty meters before and after, and everyone slowed down and maintained the most vigilant awareness at all times, if something went wrong now, it was difficult to dodge. Walking very cautiously, but without encountering any danger, after walking for about twenty minutes, finally saw in front of me, and another palace appeared, and now only the side of the palace can be seen, and it feels exactly the same as before, and in front of the palace, there is a step without a guardrail, which extends all the way.
It's exactly the same as the palace I've been to before, but is it back to square one? It is possible to go back to the origin of the arc all the way, but the arc of the bluestone road is very small, and the palace itself is very large, only more than twenty minutes, so it stands to reason that it will not go back to the origin. I guessed in my heart that I couldn't find the answer, but in fact, as long as I stepped forward and looked, I could determine whether I had returned to the original point. Without hesitation, he immediately walked towards the palace, and soon arrived outside the palace smoothly.
Standing outside the palace, you can see very clearly, the carved decorations near the palace gate, and the steps are the same as those seen before, Liu Shi's observation is very strong, and he didn't find the difference. Is it really back to square one? Another labyrinth, a labyrinth bigger and more mysterious than the Yongdao? The last thing you want to encounter is the labyrinth, not to mention the energy, the most time-consuming, the wisdom of the ancients and the unbelievable mechanism, no matter how powerful the tomb robbers, it is also difficult to encounter. Han Wei and his party have been in for a long time, and the longer the time drags on, the more dangerous it will be, even if they don't encounter traps, time will be deadly.
"The doors of the temple are closed." Liu Shi suddenly spoke when everyone was in doubt.
I remember that when I left the previous palace, no one went to close the temple door, and the temple door was completely open. Although the door of the palace in front of you is the same, it is closed, can you prove from the side that it is not the same palace? Thinking of this, the suspicion in everyone's hearts was a little less, as long as it was not a labyrinth. Han Wei walked towards the palace door and wanted to push the palace door open, he thought a little more than anyone else, when the palace door opened automatically, would it also close automatically? If you don't open the temple door, who can be sure that you are not stuck in a labyrinth again.
Seeing that his hand was about to touch the temple door, suddenly, the temple door opened on its own, and Han Wei sensed the danger in surprise and immediately retreated. An invisible force followed like a shadow, and at that moment, the only thought in his mind was to dodge, Han Wei could only keep retreating, retreating to the edge of the steps without realizing it, and if he took a step back, he would roll down the high steps. At a height of tens of meters, under normal circumstances, with Han Wei's strong body, he may not die if he rolls down, but is the environment he is in now and the normal touch? Han Wei was not conscious enough, but Liu Shi reacted immediately, immediately grabbed Han Wei, and shouted at the same time: "Wei Zi." ”
When Han Wei was grabbed by Liu Shi's arm, he instinctively resisted, his strength was greater than Liu Shi's, and he shook his hand violently, but threw Liu Shi's whole person out, Liu Shi was defenseless and rolled down the steps. At the moment when Liu Shi was thrown away, Han Wei's consciousness was already awake under the action of spiritual power, and he quickly controlled his body without falling down the steps. wanted to reach out to pull Liu Shi, but like Li Hua, he was a step too late, so he could only watch Liu Shi roll down, and then entered the white fog, and he couldn't see his figure again.
"Stone!" Han Wei screamed eagerly, and then immediately went down the steps, going to find Liu Shi, and didn't care about anything else.
Li Hua and Lin Xue also hurriedly followed, all worried about Liu Shi's safety, if Liu Shi really had an accident, not to mention that Han Wei would never be able to feel at ease, even they would not be able to let go. Here, Han Tian, Scar, and Fat didn't know what happened just now before they could react, and when they saw that Han Wei and the others were gone, they hurriedly followed, and almost rolled down the steps because they were in too much of a hurry.
It didn't take much time to take hundreds of steps, Han Wei had already taken the lead in finishing, but he didn't find Liu Shi's figure along the way, there were no guardrails on both sides of the steps, could it be that he rolled down from both sides halfway? Han Wei was even more anxious in his heart, at a height of dozens of meters, no matter how strong he was, he was also flesh and blood, where could he withstand it. Han Wei shouted heartbreakingly: "Stone, stone......" Then the person immediately rushed to the left side of the steps, looked nearby, and found no Liu Shi. Then run to the right side of the steps, either on the left or on the right, unless one can fly away.
But when they got to the right, they still didn't find Liu Shi's voice, and Han Wei, Li Hua, and Lin Xue shouted at the same time, but they didn't see Liu Shi's response. Lin Xue even went all out to release her spiritual power to investigate, and did not hesitate to forcibly break through the limit, just so that her spiritual power could extend to a farther place. The spiritual power didn't sense Liu Shi either, could it be that the person was already dead? But even if he died, in that short period of time, the spiritual power could still capture his consciousness, how could he not find anything?
Han Weiyin's red eyes looked a little terrifying, his hands were clenched into fists, and he couldn't forgive himself. Li Hua and Lin Xue didn't comfort Han Wei, not to blame, but they were also people who needed to be comforted, at this moment both of them were so anxious that they couldn't even sense their mental power, what happened in the middle of the way?
Han Tian, Scar, and Fat finally came down, and the only thing they could do at this moment was to continue to search and expand the scope of searching, although they knew that the distance between the people and the people would not be too far, but they still had a trace of luck. Lin Xue couldn't care about the secret of hiding her spiritual power, and her spiritual power entered the minds of Han Tian and the others at the same time, and they could know what they found at the first time. If you want Han Tian and the three of them not to resist their spiritual power, they can only tell them that the three of them were speechless, and the fat man's body trembled, Han Tian and Scar had long known the magic of spiritual power, but they didn't expect it to enter people's minds, just like a wireless.
Everyone scattered to search, and at the same time kept shouting Liu Shi's name, but for half an hour, they still didn't find Liu Shi's shadow, and their spiritual power never sensed his existence. Han Wei and Li Hua's voices were hoarse and their voices changed, the hideous color on their faces was particularly terrifying, and Han Tian and the three of them were shocked, and the atmosphere became more and more depressed, for fear that Han Wei and Li Hua would be angry with them.
"If the person is not found, it means that the person is still alive......" Han Tian really couldn't stand this depression, he felt suffocated, and said hard.
Although Han Wei and Li Hua were anxious, they would not be angry with others casually, and the two of them thought in their hearts, what accident happened? Soon, Han Wei thought, could it be that on the stairs that rolled down, he encountered a mechanism, and it happened that the person fell into the mechanism, so he couldn't find it? This explanation was reasonable, and seeing a glimmer of hope, Han Wei immediately returned to the steps, and then asked Han Tian and the others to separate, and carefully looked for each step.
Five or six hundred steps, carefully searching one by one, how much time does it take? Regardless of whether you can find someone or not, how long can you stay in the dungeon afterwards? There was not much food and water, Han Tian, Scar, and Fat Zi did not agree with Han Wei in their hearts, but they did not dare to raise objections, in Han Wei's fierce eyes, they had to give in, and Lin Xue's spiritual strength was there, so they didn't dare not be serious at all.
Time passed minute by minute, and after a long time, they found fifty or sixty steps, and still did not find Liu Shi's figure, Han Wei, Li Hua, and Lin Xue insisted on shouting, even if they were hoarse enough to completely change their voices and their throats burned, they still had no intention of stopping shouting, and Lin Xue's mental power had been maintained at the strongest, unwilling to give up any opportunity. When looking for the mechanism on the steps, Lin Xue actually sensed a trace of abnormality, looked at the lower right of the steps, and seemed to see a black mist, but in the blink of an eye, it changed again and turned white. Lin Xue also moved her spiritual power over, focusing on investigating there, but she didn't sense any special existence, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
Lin Xue didn't remember that when he came to the bottom of the steps for the first time, Liu Shi had felt that the black floor tiles on both sides of the steps were very special, but he was the only one who felt uneasy, the black fog he saw just now, was there really no connection between the two? It doesn't matter if there is a connection or not, because no one takes a second look at the lower right, as long as someone takes a second look, they will find the black fog, and they will also find a vague figure under the black fog, a figure that can't even be sensed by mental power.
