Chapter Seventy-Three

Traces of being towed?

Hearing this, Wen Wan's heart suddenly froze, and she thought of the missing Mu Ling'er.

The place where Mu Ling'er disappeared was in the City Lord's Mansion, which was different from Lin Haochen, but the two of them disappeared on the same day so coincidentally, Wen Wan suddenly became suspicious in his heart.

It's ...... Is there a connection?

"What's wrong? But what did you find? After Lin Huaizhu told the clue, Wen Wan glanced at the corner and saw that Qin Muyu beside him was staring closely at the stone wall in the north direction, although the expression on his face was very indifferent, but Wen Yun had been with him for so many years, and at a glance he knew what he had discovered, so she turned sideways and asked Qin Muyu softly.

Qin Muyu was still staring at the stone wall seriously, and when he heard Wen Wan's doubts, he said in a low voice: "That stone wall...... It always gives me a feeling that something is wrong......"

Wrong?

What could be wrong with a stone wall......

Lin Huaizhu and Wen Wan looked at the stone wall at the same time, both with thought in their eyes.

Suddenly, Lin Huaizhu frowned slightly, and walked straight towards the stone wall without saying a word.

"Miss Lin?" Wen Wan was shocked when she saw that she suddenly had a move, and blurted out and shouted.

"There's something wrong with the stone wall here!" Lin Huaizhu stood three steps away from the stone wall, clasped his arms with both hands, his eyes swept across the scene around the stone wall, and then slowly moved to the ground, and then his eyes froze in a certain place, and said in a calm voice.

She didn't even notice that there was no shadow under this stone wall!

Where there is light, there will be shadows in real objects, and now that the sun has gradually moved westward, the shadows should drag on longer and longer, how can there be no signs of shadows at all?!

Wen Wan and Qin Muyu followed and stepped forward, followed Lin Huaizhu's line of sight, and they all found this problem, and suddenly had a serious expression on their faces.

Wen Wan raised his eyes, glanced at the stone wall and said to the other two: "There is no shadow, that is to say, the stone wall in front of me is a virtual scene." ”

A virtual scene is an illusion created by some means of a scene that did not exist here.

"Stand back." After Wen Wan finished speaking, neither Lin Huaizhu nor Qin Muyu immediately answered, and Qin Muyu suddenly spoke, summoning his natal spirit sword and trying to break the formation.

There are many ways to create a virtual scene, one of which is the blinding method, and the illusion is also a kind of illusion, and another method is to use the Qiankun Shift Array.

The Qiankun Shifting Array is a high-level formation, and its function is to move the phantom of something that does not exist in this place here, as if this object was originally placed here.

Although it is not the main body, whether it is tactile or visual, it looks very real to the touch, and it is really difficult to distinguish the real from the fake.

This formation is good anywhere, but there is a shortcoming, that is, there is no shadow of the objects that have been moved by the Qiankun Shift Array.

After seeing Qin Muyu sacrifice his natal spirit sword, Lin Huaizhu and Wen Wan retreated to a position a zhang away together, watching him swing his sword to break the formation.

Lin Huaizhu clasped his arms with both hands, looked ahead, lost his mind for a moment, and sighed very emotionally, now he also has the ability to protect the person he wants to protect......

Lin Huaizhu silently glanced at Qin Muyu a few times, and then turned his gaze to the surrounding stone walls.

The weeds in front of the stone wall are real, and the boulders are real, so the weeds and boulders have shadows, just enough to cover up the shadows that the stone wall should have but don't have, causing her to not notice the abnormality of the stone wall even if she has passed by here many times.

But when she got closer and looked closer, she noticed that the weeds in one place had been bent, as if they had been crushed by something.

The weeds in that piece fell messily in the grass next to it, and the shadow of that piece was missing, which exposed the flaws in the stone wall.

The person who wanted to use this formation also took a lot of thought, and after thinking about it a few times, he chose a place that could cover up the flaws of this formation, and successfully concealed it from her eyes.

Qin Muyu's cultivation in the early stage of the infant, manipulating his natal spirit sword, the tip of the sword stabbed at the barrier shrouded in the stone wall, the sword carried a blazing temperature that could incinerate everything, the air in the burning area was faintly distorted and deformed, and the barrier loomed in front of everyone.

The Qiankun Shifting Array is a high-level formation, and its own defense is very thick, and if the spirit sword can't be pierced once, it will come again, and after ten times like this, a few tiny cracks finally appeared in the barrier.

At first, the crack was very short, but slowly the gap became larger and larger, meandering and spreading on the barrier until it was covered in the top, and then with a "bang", the barrier shattered into dust, and the Qiankun Shifting Array disappeared.

After the formation disappeared, the original mountain wall disappeared, and what appeared in front of Lin Huaizhu and his party was the entrance to a one-person-high cave.

As soon as the entrance of the cave appeared, there was a very fishy smell from inside, so bad that people smelled so much that they wanted to vomit out what they had eaten in their stomachs three days ago, which was really disgusting.

It was like a stench that could smoke the dead, and it permeated the forest, winding around them, in all directions, in front of them, on the left and right, and there was nowhere to hide.

"What does this smell like, it stinks!" Lin Huaizhu pinched his nose with one hand, fanned the wind with the other, and said in a muffled voice with a black face, looking like he could spit out at any time, and the whole person felt about to be bad.

Although Wen Wan was not as exaggerated as Lin Huaizhu, she also covered her breath with her sleeves, wanting to resist the sudden stench, which was different from her previous soft voice, and her tone changed slightly, "It seems that something rots and it smells rotten, and it's not just that." ”

Lin Huaizhu was about to admire her to death, in such a stinky situation, she was still in the mood to tell what caused the smell.

The smell is really terrible, but entering the hole is an inevitable choice, Lin Huaizhu frowned, just thinking about how to enter without being stinky to death, when he swept his eyes and found that one of the three people present was very calm, as if he couldn't smell the overwhelming stench, and stood firmly.

"Senior Brother Qin, when did you lose your sense of smell?" Seeing that he was so calm and completely unaffected, Lin Huaizhu couldn't help but blurt out.

Qin Muyu glanced back at her, and said in a calm tone: "I have already held my breath and sealed my sense of smell." ”

As soon as these words came out, Lin Huaizhu and Wen Wan were both stunned, and the shame in their hearts arose.

Especially Lin Huaizhu, the corners of his mouth twitched, and the expression on his face was very rich.

How could they have forgotten that they were cultivators! Unlike mortals in the mundane world, monks can close off their five senses!

Lin Huaizhu quickly sealed her sense of smell, and the fishy smell finally dissipated, she felt better, put her hands on her sleeves, and said seriously, "Since everyone is looking for someone, there is such a strange cave here, why don't you go together?" ”

"That's for the best." Wen Wan also sealed his sense of smell before he breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile when he heard the words.

After she finished speaking, she habitually glanced at the person next to her, and was suddenly stunned, and noticed that Qin Muyu was looking at Lin Huaizhu intently, his eyes were full of seriousness.

Wen Wan glanced at Lin Huaizhu without a trace, and found that she was standing in front of the cave and looking in cautiously, not noticing Qin Muyu's staring at her at all.

Wen Wan put his gaze back on Qin Muyu again, and retracted it for only a moment, with a silent face.

For some reason, Qin Muyu's look at Lin Huaizhu made her feel scared, it was a feeling of losing the person she loved, which made her very uneasy, and her heart was inexplicably a little flustered at this moment.

"Let's go."

Qin Muyu's low voice came, Wen Wan realized that he had just shaken his head, hurriedly cleaned up the emotions in his heart, and smiled quickly at Qin Muyu unnaturally, and then lowered his head, for fear that he would see something.

Qin Muyu didn't notice this little episode, he saw that Lin Huaizhu had already entered the cave, so he said something to Wen Yun, followed Lin Huaizhu with her, and walked towards the cave.

Entering through the cave was a long passage, and there was no light, and it was dark inside, and you couldn't see your fingers.

After entering the cave, the position of the three of them changed, Qin Muyu walked in front to open the way for them, Wen Wan in the middle, and Lin Huai behind the bamboo mat.

Qin Muyu is a fire-based heavenly spirit root, and he is very handy in the use of fire-based spells, because there is a flame floating in front of him, and the size of the flame is just right, which can not only illuminate the four directions, but also not bring a stuffy feeling.

When there was a glimmer of light in the cave, everything in the cave was clearly imprinted in the eyes.

Lin Huaizhu walked at the end, holding his arms in both hands, frowning at the mutilated bones, reacting that there was something mixed with the stench before.

Not only the smell of rot, but also the cold, mildew smell caused by the lack of sunlight all year round, and the smell of blood that is still strong after many years.

Such a strong smell of blood, which has lasted for a long time, shows that many people have died here.

Lin Huaizhu's always lazy mood was finally serious.

"What's wrong?"

Wen Yun's whispered voice of inquiry came, and Lin Huaizhu found that Qin Muyu had stopped.

She had been immersed in her own thoughts, and she was unconsciously a little behind, and when she saw the two of them stop, Lin Huaizhu sped up and caught up, wanting to see what was going on.

It wasn't until I got closer that I realized that there was no road ahead, a huge stone wall in front of me, and there was no place around that could be called a mechanism.

"No way?" Wen Wan walked to Qin Muyu's side, looked back and forth at this stone wall, and said uncertainly, "Don't you want to break this stone wall?" ”

Qin Muyu swept his gaze, frowned, shook his head for a while, and said, "No, no, we can't break this stone wall, we went wrong, the entrance is not here." ”

"Wrong?" Wen Wan opened a pair of eyes slightly, looked at it again and said, "But this is the road all the way, and I haven't seen the fork." ”

"This stone wall is equipped with a formation of spiritual power to counterattack, if it is broken, not only will we be devoured by spiritual energy, not to mention, this cave, I am afraid that it will also collapse and crush us underneath." Qin Muyu said with a serious face.

"Is that going back and looking for it again?"

Qin Muyu was just about to speak, when Lin Huaizhu suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said suddenly, "I know where the hidden entrance is!" ”

"Where?" Qin Muyu and Wen Wan turned their heads together, looked at her and asked.

"It's two-thirds of the way in! There was a wall overgrown with weeds, and from a distance it looked like an arch, which I thought was strange at the time, but now I understand that it was deliberately planted with weeds to block the gap in the stone gate! ”

Qin Muyu listened to her words, resolutely returned to two-thirds of the place, and after letting him rummage through, he finally succeeded in finding Shimen.
