173. Overlap
I was startled in my heart, and turned my head to see He Zhixu, who had just fainted, narrowed his eyes slightly, and his starry eyes were staring at me, I should have heard a conversation between me and Gu Xi just now.
Xiao You was about to cry nervously next to him: "Zhixu, and said that it's okay, your face has turned black." It's all my fault, I shouldn't have messed with the things on the door. ”
At this time, it is not to hold anyone responsible, but to know that the situation is indeed not good. Gritting his teeth, he stood on tiptoe and walked over to Gu Xi's ear, and his dark eyes turned and locked me in that sight. Ying Ying looked at each other, and finally saw that his expression was relaxed, and then heard him say: "The person who can save him here is except me, and that is you." ”
I? Why do I say I can save him?
After his eyes were bright, he said, "Have you forgotten the second time Zhu Ke played Gu on you before?" ”
After he reminded me, I suddenly remembered that although Zhu Ke had a Gu on me, but it didn't happen, and then Gu Xi said that it was because I wore his jade whistle, and the spirituality of jade was transmitted into my body, and I was invulnerable.
"So how?" I don't have time to explore more, and I can't look at it anymore.
"Simple, apply your blood to his wounds."
This was the answer Gu Xi gave me, and even though I was confused, I immediately did it. It was easy to find the wound that was bitten by the Moth King in the position behind He Zhixu's ear, which was already black and swollen at this time. I bit my finger and smeared the blood there, and it was miraculously obvious that the black was fading and swelling.
In the process, He Zhixu did not lose consciousness again, he was always looking at me, and his gentle gaze seemed clear and full of meaning compared to the past, and even I didn't dare to look at each other.
When his face returned to white, I was going to squeeze the blood to apply it again, but he dodged away, shook his head and said, "Hope, don't waste any more blood and energy, I'm really fine." ”
Hearing that title, my heart skipped a beat, he had always called me by my English name, and then he actually used an intimate title that no one had ever used. I could only reluctantly nod and get up, burying my head when I walked to Gu Xi's side, I really didn't have the courage to look at his face again. But suddenly his whisper came to his ear: "Don't forget what you just said." ”
I froze, and I had just whispered a sentence to him, three words to be exact.
Although there is an element of force, it is also my own voice, but I would never have the courage to say it in the past. I only remember that he announced to me in a cold manner: I will make you fall in love with me.
That sentence was like a magic spell, and it really worked.
Almost all my thoughts revolve around him now, I feel lonely and helpless when I am separated from him, I feel hesitant to learn that my secret has been discovered by him, and I am afraid that he will be angry even if I look at He Zhixu more. In addition, if it were someone else, even if I was waiting for help at this moment, I would not ask for it in such a soft way.
I know that those three words at least pleased him and made him put his temper down for a while.
Gu Xi rushed over from the depths just now, and he didn't stay any longer and pulled me inside. Soon my vision widened, and I saw a natural semi-circular cave, with several lights lit on the stone wall, illuminating it brightly. There are two more lanes on our left and right, and a bronze gate is directly opposite the door.
These are secondary, the main ones are...... I saw the owner.
He was not dead yet, but he sat in front of the bronze door in a daze, looking desperate.
Qin Zhou directly asked his doubts when he came in later: "Hey, why is this old guy still there?" ”
Gu Xi replied lightly: "He was there when I came in just now." ”
There was only one possibility, and he ran into here when the two of his men were attacked by moths. The stone door was ajar when we came in just now, and he must have pushed it open, but I don't know why there wasn't a moth chasing it in?
Qin Zhou looked the bronze door up and down, then walked to the other two holes to take a look, and asked, "Are we going to open this bronze door and go in?" Let's take these two passages. ”
"Will there be any monsters coming out of this door?" Xiao Youhou spoke fearfully.
Cen Xi was relatively calm, she looked around and then stared at the owner of the village and said: "This place should not be moths coming in, the owner of the village fled here I don't know what happened to cause him to seem delirious." When ordinary people see such a bronze gate, they almost instinctively think that there is something behind this door, and they must be the first to try to open it. So the owner of the village must have something to do with this bronze gate, we might as well take those two passages to see, or come back here. ”
Her analysis is reasonable and in line with her calm and steady character. But Gu Xi turned to me and asked, "What do you think?" ”
As soon as he heard this question, he knew that he had already judged, and after a little hesitation, he said the answer in his heart: "Behind the bronze gate is the destination, and the only way out." "After the Moth King suddenly attacked me just now, the road we came in has become the Yellow Spring Road, and it is impossible to go back, otherwise we will be bitten to death by countless moths like those two people.
Cen Xi heard that I almost refuted everything she had just done, and immediately questioned: "Why do you say that the bronze door is the only way out?" Aren't there still two passages here? ”
"Those two paths are similar to the one we entered, and they are the same as the roads behind the other two stone doors that have not been opened at the round platform outside, and no one knows what is inside, so it is better not to risk it."
After hearing this, several people's faces turned pale, probably thinking of the moth just now.
"But ......" Cen Xi looked at Gu Xi again and again, and after Gu Xi's eyes turned to her, he said in a quiet voice: "What if there is no way out behind the bronze door?" ”
Gu Xi laughed when he heard the evil words: "If there is no way, kill a way out." ”
Strange in my heart, although I heard him say it was an understatement, but if there is no road to the outside world in the bronze door as Cen Xi said, then it is inevitable that we still have to come back here to do this three-choice question, no, it is a multiple-choice question.
The path of the moths that came in was already a dead end, and it was impossible to choose another way, so they could only choose an unknown path from these other two passages to kill. Having said that, what exactly was behind this bronze door, and why did the original owner not only design the Qimen Dunjia Array, but also set up these barriers to block anyone who might want to approach here?
But the current situation is that even if there is a way out of the bronze door, we must first open the door.
Under Cen Xi's instructions, the man named Ade stepped forward and pushed the door, but the door did not move. Gu Xi also stared thoughtfully at the bronze door, probably thinking about how to open it.
I thought that I was going to break the Qimen Dunjia Formation when I came down from above just now, so will this gate be opened? If there is a array, it should be arranged in the semi-circular space where we are standing.
I definitely can't help with breaking the formation, so I can only find out if there are any details that need to be paid attention to. After a circle of sight, it finally settled on the owner, so far we have not found anything strange, what happened to him to become like this? Taking advantage of the time when everyone was looking for a way to open the bronze door, I walked around him half a meter away, and found that he didn't even move his eyes, just stared ahead, keeping this desperate expression.
After thinking about it, he sat on the floor at the same height as him, and followed his line of sight to see the bronze door.
The door was textured, but it didn't have a pattern, as if it had been carved at the time of casting.
The owner, who had been unaware since we came in, turned his head and asked, "Did you see that?" "Instantly, the silence in the space fell, and everyone's eyes were on us, and no one would have thought that the owner would suddenly speak, including me.
After a moment's hesitation, I asked softly, "What do you see?" ”
The owner of the village looked disappointed, turned his head and said to himself: "I can't see it, only I can see it." ”
They looked at each other in the afterglow, and I couldn't help but think about it, although he looked sluggish, he didn't seem to be insane, could it be that he could really see something and we couldn't? Especially his expression was not fear, but despair.
Fear and despair are two different emotions, people feel fear when they see something terrible or even unbearable, but despair is the emotion that rises in the heart when all hope is gone.
Judging from the previous performance of the owner, he had spent nearly his whole life in this place, and he desperately hoped that someone could break through the Qimen Dunjia Formation and let him enter this much-desired place. Obviously he wanted something, and if that was his hope, then despair meant he couldn't get it.
I tried to look at the bronze door and the space around it from his point of view, and gradually the lines on the door seemed to fly, colliding with each other in the air. Wait, they're in ...... Recombination? Aren't these lines carved at random?
Immediately remembering the fragments that had haunted me for a long time, and the pattern that appeared on the stone gate of the underground siege, I had a vague feeling that this place was probably connected to the underground siege on the other side of Brin Town. Will some message patterns be hidden on the bronze door in the same way? Immediately sinking into consciousness, concentrating on those lines, my brain worked quickly to reassemble and piece together these lines, and I felt clueless after a round, and I couldn't help but reach out and gesture in the air.
The lines are not completely irregular, and if they cannot be combined in ordinary permutations, then ...... What about overlapping?
