Chapter 54: A Fork in the Road, Life and Death

"I had no choice but to continue along this path. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Midnight sighed, looked around at the pitch black, and muttered to himself helplessly.

The narrow passage leads straight to the depths of darkness, and with his powerful eyesight, the range that can be seen in midnight is only four or five zhang away.

Walking all the way down the secret passage, Midnight's heart calmed down, and the pace of walking became faster. Suddenly, while walking, I accidentally fell into a very soft place in the middle of the night. Before he could react, a piercing scream rang in his ears.

"Ah~ indecent!"

In the middle of the night, he felt a huge force attack, and then he fell to the ground, his whole body stiff and unable to move.

"Okay, so cool......"

At this time, his mind was already blank, and the feeling was something he had never felt before, soft with a faint sweet fragrance......

"Smack!"

Xiao Rou covered her chest with one hand, scolded angrily with a pink face, and stepped forward and slapped Midnight fiercely.

"Hiss~, you, why did you hit me?" Midnight's fingertips touched the red five-finger mark on the left side of his face, and he couldn't help but gasp, and then, looking at Xiao Rou innocently, there seemed to be tears in his eyes.

"Humph! It's already very merciful to let you take such a big advantage and just slap you in the face. Don't get cheap and sell well! Xiao Rou's face was still a little pink, and she twisted her head to the side and said.

"Cheap? What did I get cheap? Not only did I fall, but I was slapped by you. It hurts me! Midnight covered his face lightly, grinned slightly, and said with a depressed face.

"Humph! You, you're a scoundrel! Xiao Rou said angrily.

"Hooligans? Didn't I just hit you! As for this? Big deal, you'll bump back again! Midnight replied indifferently, he was still a teenager, and although his mind was mature, he still didn't know anything about men and women. He only knows the difference between men and women, but he still doesn't understand the sensitive parts of girls.

"You, you, you're mad at me!"

Xiao Rou listened to the words that were enough to choke people to death in the middle of the night, and the anger that had already disappeared for most of them burned again. However, when he saw that there was not the slightest blasphemy in Midnight's eyes, the anger in his heart was not good, so he could only stomp his feet, turn away, and ignore Midnight.

Midnight tilted her head, thought about it and thought about it, but still didn't understand why Xiaorou was so atmospheric. However, he didn't know what to do when he was once autistic, so he had to stop squeaking and stand behind Xiao Rou and look at this place.

This place is different from the secret passage that I walked before, there is no sense of crampedness, but more wide and hearty. It can be said that there is no way out of the mountains and rivers, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village!

Looking around Xiao Rou, who crossed her hands on her waist and her gills were bulging, a fork in the road suddenly appeared in front of Midnight's eyes. However, this fork in the road is a bit special, it can be said that there are two Yongdao, and it is sealed with two stone gates. The stone door on the left hand side has a character engraved with an inscription that Midnight can't read, and the stone door on the right hand side has a character engraved with the same inscription, but the two characters are different.

Midnight stared at it for a while, his eyes changed to bloody eyes, and when he looked again, under the bloody light of his bloody eyes, the two stone gates had different reactions. The stone gate on the right was no different, but the stone gate on the left showed layers of faint black mist. At the same time, an inexplicable sense of familiarity came from the black fog, and it pulsed up and down with the heartbeat of midnight.

Midnight looked up at Xiao Rou, but Xiao Rou snorted coldly and turned her head, completely not accepting Midnight's gaze.

Alas!

After sighing in his heart, Midnight secretly swore that he would not provoke a creature like a woman casually in the future, which was simply incomprehensible. Shaking his head helplessly, Midnight took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the stone gate on the left that showed black mist.

"Huh?"

Xiao Rou saw that Midnight didn't pay attention to her, so she turned her head, but she happened to witness Midnight's movements, and sighed softly in her heart.

When she saw Midnight put her hand on the stone door on her left, trying to open it, her face suddenly became ugly.

"Don't! Stop it! ”

Midnight had just put his hand on the stone door, but before he could make a move, he was shocked by a coquettish cry from behind him. Slowly looking back, I found that a little sweat particles appeared on Xiao Rou's smooth forehead, and it seemed that even her breathing had become a little short.

"What's wrong?"

Midnight seemed to have guessed something, took his hand off the stone door, and looked at Xiao Rou motionlessly.

"Do you know the inscription on the door?" Xiao Rou asked a little nervously.

"I don't know." Midnight replied directly.

"I don't know what you're messing with! It's dangerous to know it! As soon as Xiao Rou heard this, she was furious and shouted loudly, fortunately she shouted in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

“……”

"These two stone doors are unusual things, it is very likely that they were built by some capable person, it can be said that there are many mechanisms, and if you are not careful, you will end up with no place to be buried." Xiao Rou said with a serious face, looking very serious, and the awe in her eyes was also very real, not like she was joking.

"Well, I see! Thank you so much. Midnight was silent for a long time, and he raised his head to thank Xiao Rou, and his good impression of Xiao Rou in his heart increased a few points. Glancing back at the stone gate, the faint black mist seemed to be able to let go of him, but in the dark, there was still a voice that kept calling for midnight. Midnight suppressed the throbbing in his heart, slowly walked beside Xiaorou, and re-examined the two stone doors, Midnight seemed to see more things.

"So, what does that have to do with the two words on the door?" Midnight still asked with a cold face, but this time his expression was more serious, and he didn't have the nature of a child.

"You really don't recognize this word?" Xiao Rou asked again, a pair of glowing eyes looking at Midnight with some disbelief.

"Do I have a reason to lie to you?" Midnight glanced back at Xiaorou and said lightly.

"Uh, oh, that's right." Xiao Rou retracted her gaze and explained earnestly, "There are two stone gates here, corresponding to two roads, which seem to be two roads, but these two roads are one to some extent. At the same time, it also has a nice name, Life and Death! The path of life and death has the same origin and different paths, whether you open the road of life or death, it will reorganize life and death, and the two paths will overlap. But if the person who opens is very lucky, the path of life and death will not change, life is life, death is death and then life! ”

"The road of life and death, the road is the same origin. That is to say, these two stone gates correspond to two paths of life and death, and the inscription on the stone gate is the word life and death! Midnight made his own inferences.

"Well, that's right!" Xiao Rou nodded, signaling that Midnight was right.

"So, what is the stone door I was about to open?" Midnight asked with some trepidation.

"Dead end!"
