Chapter 7: The Lotus Temple
Bang, bang, bang, a few muffled falling sounds, more than a dozen Warring States soldiers who were as solid as stones fell out of the phantom sound path in unison.
The fire flickered, and it was a candle flame with the mouths of several strange beast stone carvings, although it was not completely bright, but it was enough to see everything clearly.
The Warring States soldiers let out the sound of ghost screams and flew up, wanting to rush back to the Phantom Sound Dao to kill Ning Ming and the others, but unfortunately before they could take a step, the sound of ghost screams stopped abruptly, and the next moment their entire body turned into ashes and flew away.
Seeing this, Lin Shuanghua said, "It's weird, but it doesn't look like there is a mechanism." ”
Yan Hong was silent, looking at the dissipated soldiers.
Ning Ming, who was standing at the entrance of the Phantom Sound Road, saw the scattered Warring States soldiers and chuckled, "There are no traps, those soldiers can only stay in the door of life and death, and once they leave, they will dissipate." ”
Ning Ming took the lead and entered the huge space.
Surrounded by all kinds of palaces of all sizes, even in the dark underground, it looks majestic, and under the flame of the four strange beasts, there is a fierce and murderous atmosphere.
The ground was a neatly sized stone brick, and there was only the footsteps of Ning Ming and the others in the empty space, it was too quiet here, and it was a little surprisingly quiet.
On the front is a hundred stone steps, on which a strange palace is located, and its existence makes the surrounding palaces no longer have the power to win glory.
Ning Ming stopped in front of the stone steps and looked up, Zou Mei, "It looks like a lotus, it is natural, it is really a veritable lotus hall." ”
Yan Hong and Lin Shuanghua Zou Mei, they have never heard of the Lotus Palace.
Lin Shuanghua looked at the candle flames of the four strange beasts, and couldn't help sighing, "Who is this Chen Xiangsi Demon Saint, who dares to use the four fierce as lighting candles, which is also very rare in the entire demon world." ”
Just like Lin Shuanghua said, the four strange beasts are the four fierce beasts in the legend, gluttony, chaos, 梼杌, poor Qi, the stone carvings of the four fierce beasts are lifelike, not at all like the appearance of being buried deep underground for more than 2,000 years, what is even more bizarre is that the eyes of the four fierce beasts are all gouged out, the blue flames are swaying, the heavenly spirit cave is opened, and the blue flames are burning.
Ning Ming smiled, but did not answer Lin Shuanghua.
Yan Hong was not interested in the four fierce beasts, she always stared at the lotus hall in front of the square like a blooming lotus, and the stone petal lotus had no traces of man, it was really as Ning Ming said, it should be natural.
The steps in front of him were as white as jade, and they looked a little strange under the flickering candlelight.
Yan Hong just wanted to step on the stone steps, but was stopped by Ning Ming, "Don't move!" ”
Ning Ming's voice was very solemn, which made both Yan Hong and Lin Shuanghua feel that something was wrong.
"Something different?" Yan Hong asked.
Ning Ming nodded, "Don't act rashly, wait." ”
"What are you waiting for?" Lin Shuanghua said, "Or who are you waiting for?" ”
Ning Ming pointed to the jade steps in front of him, as smooth as a mirror, as bright as a mirror, "Can you see what's weird?" ”
Lin Shuanghua looked at Zou Mei for a moment, and was suddenly startled, "There is no shadow." ”
Yes, the candle flame was all around them, and it stands to reason that their shadows should be reflected on the stone steps, but the stone steps in front of them were as bright as a mirror, but there was no shadow of the three of them.
"This is what we have to wait," Ning Ming looked at the Lotus Hall in front of him, "waiting for our shadow to come and pick us up." ”
Now, even Yan Hong is frowning, and she naturally has a sense of beauty.
Ning Ming looked at it and smiled slightly, "It's really a heavenly posture, every smile is beautiful enough." ”
Yan Hong immediately returned to her cold appearance, glanced at Ning Ming, and her face was expressionless, "Do business!" ”
Ning Ming pursed his lips, glanced at Lin Shuanghua, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
At this moment, there were also a few dull sounds in the passage corresponding to the Shengmen, and several Warring States cavalry fell out, and then, as Ning Ming had seen before, the terrible ghost screams stopped abruptly, and then dissipated.
The method used is the same as Ning Ming.
Chu Xia and the others walked out of the cave, and at a glance they saw Ning Ming and the three of them standing in front of the Lotus Hall, Chu Xia smiled, "It seems that it's still too late." ”
Ning Ming looked at it, "It's not too late, I'm just waiting for you, our first demon master in the world." ”
In early summer, he was stunned, and then his smile was like a flower, very beautiful, "Hey, it's really the sun coming out of the west, and our great Ning Ming Demon Master also has a sweet mouth." ”
"Hehe," Ning Ming smirked.
The laughter between Chu Xia and Ning Ming made the people around them very uncomfortable, just like the two people who were facing each other in front of the door of life and death just now, not the two people now.
Chu Xia saw the majestic Lotus Hall at a glance, and immediately exclaimed, "Lotus Hall?!" Does it really exist?! Then he looked at Ning Ming, and his shocked eyes and expressions were asking whether Ning Ming was true or false.
Ning Ming nodded and chuckled.
"At the beginning, when you told me about the Lotus Palace, I thought it was just your casual nonsense, but I didn't expect that there was such a strange thing in this world." After the early summer exclamation, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, but no matter how he looked at it, it was a malicious smile, and he walked towards Ning Ming step by step.
"Ning Ming, you said," Chu Xia's expression was very subtle, as if he was smiling, "At the beginning, when you sealed the demon on my back, was it for today?" ”
"Of course not," Ning Ming hurriedly said without hesitation, "The sealing demon is really to protect you. ”
I can't admit it even if I was killed!
Chu Xia snorted coldly, "Ning Ming, you lied." ”
Just know for sure.
Ning Ming lost his temper and said with a smile, "Hehe, it's a little bit, but believe me, sealing the demon is really to protect you, I can swear to the sky, if what I said is true, when the five thunders hit the top, the form and spirit will be destroyed." ”
"Pull it down," Chu Xia dismissed, "if your men's vows are taken seriously, I don't know how many people die on Valentine's Day every year." ”
This makes sense, even Yan Hong thinks.
Ah Xiu, who was behind Chu Xia, nodded even more exaggeratedly.
Chu Xia and the others stood in front of the stone steps, looking at the smooth steps, and Chu Xia Zou frowned, "Can't attack?" ”
Ning Ming shook his head, "If it is just the Lotus Palace, you will have enough demons on you, but this is Chen Xiangsi's dungeon, and this Lotus Hall doesn't know what Chen Xiangsi has done. ”
Early summer doesn't speak.
For a while, it was terrible quiet, only the breathing of a few people, heavy and abnormal.
"Sister Chuxia," Ah Xiu really couldn't stand such depression and silence, and whispered, "What is this Lotus Palace?" ”
Chu Xia just wanted to say, and looked at Ning Ming, "Ning Ming, come on, you know more than me." ”
Ning Ming didn't shirk, "The earth has leylines, you all know this, and legend has it that on the leylines of the earth, sometimes a stone lotus flower will be born, absorbing the power of the leylines, and it is favored by all the demons, so many stone lotuses have not yet taken shape, they have been excavated by the demons of all parties, and few can be fully formed." And the Lotus Palace, is, in ancient times, there were gods and demons who waited for the stone lotus to be fully formed, and refined it into their own cave, and it became the Lotus Palace. ”
After Ning Ming finished speaking, several people were obviously stunned, what is this?
"That's it?!" Ah Xiu didn't believe it, "You're too vague." ”
Chu Xia was slightly angry and looked at Ning Ming, "Tell the point." ”
Ning Ming smiled, "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, but you must remember one thing, the Lotus Hall is an existence that can capture the shadow, if you are not sure, you must not approach." ”
"Capture the shadow?" Lin Shuanghua was puzzled.
At this moment, suddenly in front of the Lotus Hall, a figure walked slowly, walked down the steps step by step, and walked towards Ning Ming and the others.
After seeing this figure, several people were shocked.
Especially Ah Xiu, she was even more surprised and speechless, because the figure that walked down was her!
Ordinary clothes, the same look, exactly the same.
It's just that the figure who walked down had an evil smile on the corner of his mouth, and just looking at it made people feel creepy.
"Is that me?" Ah Xiu couldn't believe it.
Zou Mei in early summer looked at Ning Ming.
Ning Ming is also Zou Mei, "Why is it her first?" ”
"Is there something wrong?" The wolf eye on the side saw Chu Xia and Ning Ming's expressions, and suddenly felt bad, and asked uneasily.
"There's nothing wrong with that," Ning Ming said, "It's that Ah Xiu will die." ”
The wolf's eyes were stunned, as if he hadn't heard Ning Ming's words, and subconsciously asked, "What?" ”
Ah Xiu heard Ning Ming's words clearly, and his face turned pale suddenly, especially when he looked at himself on the stone steps with an evil smile on his face, walking towards her step by step.
Ah Xiu felt that death was coming step by step.
In the early summer, he stood up and blocked Ah Xiu's expression, "I'll block it!" ”
Ning Ming shook his head, "That's her shadow, as long as her body is immortal, the evil shadow will follow you, and you can't stop it." ”
"If you can't stop it, you have to stop it," Chu Xia said urgently, she understood the danger of the Lotus Hall better than the others, it was not as beautiful as its name, nor was it as beautiful as it looked, the Lotus Hall was completely a big killing weapon.
An unavoidable killer!
"I can use evil ghosts," Chu Xia was very anxious as he watched Ah Xiu's evil shadow get closer and closer, "This should be able to stop the evil shadow." ”
Ning Ming Zou's eyebrows deepened, "Demons can indeed block evil shadows, but you can't do it." ”
"Why?" Early summer rush.
Ning Ming pointed to the front of the Lotus Hall, and the evil shadows of him and Chu Xia looked at them with evil smiles on their faces, and walked step by step.
