The staircase is spiral-shaped, and the steps are narrow, just narrow enough to fit your feet. This narrowness is not the cramping of the whole staircase, but the peculiarity of the shape. The common steps are rectangular, and this step is trapezoidal, wide at one end and narrow at the other.

Zha Tso walked slowly in front, showing off his back, elegant gait, almost deliberately showing off.

Hu Xianxian silently counted how many steps there were, she knew that this ladder was strange, so she was on guard first.

From the first floor to the second floor, it is less than two and a half zhang high, and this staircase is more than four zhang around. Hu Xianxian counted the eighty-first level of the ladder, and she secretly scolded Zacuo in her heart for being idle and having nothing to do, and the whole ladder was so complicated.

When he arrived at the entrance of the second floor, Zacuo turned around and smiled: "A little irritable?" This ladder is to go up one small step at a time, which can not only show the graceful posture, but also grind away people's impetuous heart. ”

Hu Xianxian raised her head and smiled bitterly, she was really grinding and was about to collapse. At this height, she can go up with a light vertical, but now she almost forgot how to walk when she is detouring.

I really forgot how to walk, and when she walked up the corridor on the second floor, she took small steps unconsciously, but she was always strutting with her head held high.

The stairs from the second floor to the third floor are narrower, still eighty-one levels. Luckily, the place he was going to take her to was on the third floor, otherwise she would have to walk on tiptoe in the future.

Hu Xianxian was amused when he thought about walking on tiptoe, and Zacuo said with some displeasure: "Seeing him makes you so happy?" ”

"Hehe, can't you see me happy? Besides, do you really have that ability? Hu Xianxian smiled and said with some disdain.

Zacuo was aroused by her words, and said proudly: "Do you know why I didn't leave this ruined city? One is that my strength has not recovered, and I will not be able to deal with the enemy after I go out; The second is that only here is a special environment that allows me to know the world without going out. ”

As he spoke, he quickly clicked a few times in this room, and Hu Xianxian took a closer look at this room. The room is irregular and circular, with many holes of various sizes in the walls.

As Zhatso clicked, different lamps lit up in the holes. Among them was a kind of lamp that Hu Xianxian remembered seeing in the underground shrine of the earth. That kind of lamp didn't use lamp oil, no electricity, Hu Xianxian stared at that kind of lamp with some curiosity.

"That's a biogas lamp." Zatso's eyebrows were raised, as if mocking her ignorance.

Hu Xianxian didn't start, and went to look at the crystal pillars hanging from the roof. Those crystal pillars, large or small, are hollow cylinders. Against the backdrop of the light, a colorful halo of light is refracted.

With another click, Zhatso hung a large rectangular wooden lattice from the roof. The wooden lattice resembles a wardrobe without a door, except that instead of stacking clothes, a flat piece of cloth glows silvery dark.

Zacuo asked Hu Xianxian to close her eyes first, and then open her eyes when he asked her to open them. also warned her that if she peeked in advance, she would bear the consequences.

Hu Xianxian expected that he would not play any tricks, and with his current situation, he should just rely on the peculiarities of this small building to create some illusions. As long as she has a firm heart, nothing will go wrong.

She obediently closed her eyes, and after a while, he leaned over and whispered in her ear, "The one you want to see is here." ”

Hu Xianxian slowly opened his eyes, the lights in the room were much darker, and a blurred figure appeared on the silver cloth of the dark lattice.

Although the figure was very vague, Hu Xianxian could still identify him as Cheng Haofeng. He was sitting cross-legged next to a big ding, and there was light smoke on the ding, he should be refining the pill.

His expression was very focused, and by the time he lifted the lid, the smoke was thick and the picture was blurry to the point where it was completely unclear.

Soon, the smoke cleared again. He picked up the pill, shook his head, and poured out all the pills in Dingzhong.

It seemed that the alchemy failed, but he didn't show too much frustration, he re-selected the herbs and reopened the furnace for alchemy.

During this period, Qin Mufeng's figure appeared a few times, sometimes as if he was instructing him how to do it, and sometimes it seemed like he was persuading him not to do alchemy.

Cheng Haofeng didn't say much to Qin Mufeng, he just repeatedly improved the method again and again, and insisted on alchemy.

Hu Xianxian didn't know what Cheng Haofeng was going to do, she looked at that figure so stupidly that she almost forgot where she was.

Zha Cuo chuckled twice, let out a hot breath on her neck, and said to her in a charming voice that was astringent but not dumb, soft but not greasy: "It seems that Cheng Haofeng really loves you very much, even if he doesn't know how he feels to you now, he is still so good to you." ”

Hu Xianxian turned sideways and tilted his head to look at Zacuo. There is a fragrance on Zha Tso's body, not a floral fragrance, nor the scent of smoked spices, this aroma is domineering and strong, and it is very tempting for women. It's just that Hu Xianxian is the exception among women.

She was sick to her lungs at this time, and she was always wary of him, and the aroma only made her breathless, and disgusted with it.

She had a lot of doubts that he needed answers, and although she was disgusted, she didn't get too far from him.

He laughed at her stiff and awkward posture, approaching her body, almost against her back. He pointed to the image of the dark grid and said, "You can't see it? He is an alchemy for you, a cure for lung diseases. ”

Hu Xianxian recalled that the alchemy drugs were all Sichuan fritillary, loquat leaves, orange red, etc., which were indeed moistening the lungs and relieving cough.

She blinked, holding back the tears that were about to flow, but her nose was still sore.

Zhatso sighed: "You are so stupid...... You can easily have everything, but you have to make yourself embarrassed. ”

Hu Xianxian pursed the corners of her lips, she had to calm herself down as soon as possible. The purpose of this Zha Cuo to bring herself here was definitely not to let her see what Cheng Haofeng was doing and comfort her lovesickness.

What is his purpose?

Zha Tso felt her tense body as if she was about to punch and kick at any moment, so he moved away from her, handed a side of Supa and said, "Women don't have to hold back their tears, they can cry if they want to." “

Hu Xianxian didn't answer Supa, and continued to look at Cheng Haofeng's image.

Zacuo didn't force her, put away Supa, and there was a little annoyance in his tone: "What he can do, I can do it, and I can do it better than him." Are you really stupid? Can't you see that I really like you? ”

Hu Xianxian didn't answer, she wanted to hear what this Zha Cuo was going to say.

"You just have to hook your fingers to get the world's favor, but what do you see yourself?" Zhatso stood in front of her, blocking her view.

Hu Xianxian didn't push him away, she just turned around and walked out. Since he didn't let her see it, she didn't watch it.

Zacuo hurriedly blocked the door again, twisted his eyebrows and said: "It's not just Cheng Haofeng who loves you, there are many people who love you, you don't have to let yourself live so hard." I can give you the world's favor, and so can Metaha. You can make a request to us and we will help you. “

Hu Xianxian squeezed out a dry smile, what did he mean by this? Also "we"? It is said that she is sought after by many men.

Zacuo understood the meaning of her smile, her blue eyes were full of emotion, and her voice was a little lower: "Cheng Haofeng has withdrawn thousands of threads of love, and have you never had a heart and don't understand love?" Can't you feel that me, Maitha, Pan Wushan, and that ghost king love you very much? ”
