Yan Yu was not ambiguous, and immediately took the knife from Wu Lin's hand, and then stepped away with the handle of the knife in his hand, practicing the slow and anxious set of exercises.

I waited silently for the rain, and when he brought out the first filled spiritual rhyme from his body, I immediately summoned the Lethe River Water to dispel the cold flame in front of me.

The cold flames dissipated, and the rain cut through the palms of my hands, and I took a quick step forward, relying on a rush of shock and the hard force on the soles of my feet, directly crushing a stone slab.

The rocks were flying, and the glue layer hidden under the slate was immediately revealed.

Wu Lin pushed Yanyu to my side in time, and Yanyu shook his palm and sprinkled the blood with spiritual rhyme on the glue layer.

The cold flame began to retract, and the glue layer was stimulated by the Yanjia spiritual blood, and it slowly opened.

The fire was amazing, and I hurriedly pulled Yan Yu and Wu Lin back.

Originally, I was thinking that I would summon Lethe water again to dispel the cold fire in front of me later, and then take a good look at what was under the glue layer.

Sometimes, however, it's easy to get things complicated.

I was about to do the operation when I heard a snorting sound from under the open glue layer, which sounded like the sound of a red-hot soldering iron being poured cold water, and at the same time, I could clearly feel that the temperature of the floor had risen a lot.

Two seconds later, a thick cloud of steam rushed up from the bottom of the adhesive layer.

It was a puff of steam, rather a gray-black smoke, and in an instant, the cloud of smoke burst out of the ground, rising at an extremely fast speed, and enveloping the entire ancient building in less than a minute.

This cloud of smoke is supposed to be the mist produced by the evaporation of Lethe water, and when it tightly wraps the entire ancient building, the cold flame that was still covering the floor before is almost completely extinguished.

Only at the top of the building was a swaying sapphire blue, and when I looked up, I saw that the mist had not covered the spire of the ancient building, and in that place, there was still a small blue flame pulsing briskly.

When the mist of Lethe River clears, this flame will ignite the prairie with a spark, allowing the cold flame to reoccupy the twenty-three-story ancient tower.

Before the cold flame burned back, I quickly found the entrance of the ancient building, a gossip door that opened on the wall of the ground floor.

This door is indeed quite old, the hexagram shape of the eight hexagrams is still similar to the oracle bone inscription, and these eight hexagrams are not Qian, Kun, Li, Kan, Dui, Xun, Gen, Zhen, but eight bizarre hexagrams that resemble Fuxi congenital hexagrams, but are different from the innate hexagrams.

If I'm not mistaken, this hexagram should be from a spiritual book other than Zhou Yi - Lianshan, because the shape of the hexagram is very similar to the shape of the mountain, and the first hexagram is very similar to the Gen hexagram in the eight trigrams.

Yanyu is probably not lying, such a special hexagram is a kind of hexagram that Zhou Yi had before the appearance of Zhou Yi, in other words, the age of the completion of this ancient building is indeed earlier than the Zhou Dynasty.

However, I still can't tell the age from the architectural style and taste of the old building.

Because the shape of this building does not have any unique style of any dynasty, it is a rectangular body standing straight, and there is no trace of artificial creation on the stone tip of the roof, that is, a stone stalactite that grows naturally on the roof.

I can't smell anything from this upstairs.

Now is not the time to chatter about the age of the building, I immediately took Yan Yu and Wu Lin to the gossip gate.

Wu Lin tried to push the door panel, but he didn't expect to easily push it open, at this time, the clouds and mist shrouded in the surface of the ancient building had begun to dissipate, and the cold flame had a tendency to rekindle, so the three of us didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly got into the doorway.

There is also a small blue flame shining outside the door, although the spark is not big, but the brightness is enough, even if you don't deliberately light the lamp, you can see the surrounding scene clearly with the naked eye.

But after we entered the ancient building, the door behind us closed, and the whole world was completely darkened.

Glaive was startled by the sudden darkness, and I saw his shoulders shudder rapidly.

This guy's guts are indeed a bit skinny.

Wu Lin lit the flashlight and shone it around repeatedly.

When he didn't turn on the lights, I could only see that the boxy space was very empty, and only a wide pillar with a length and width of about two meters stood near the center of the whole space, which could be the load-bearing column of the entire ancient building, which penetrated the top surface of each floor and extended to the twenty-second floor.

Strangely enough, however, the square pillar did not appear on the twenty-third floor.

In addition to this pillar, there was a stone staircase near the wall, and on the roof hung a large patch of dense ornaments, which were very thin, like some kind of thin shell, and like hard leaves hanging upside down on the roof.

It wasn't until Wu Lin swept the roof with a flashlight that I noticed that the flakes seemed to be sprinkled with reflective agents, and the reflected luster seemed to be brighter than the flashlight itself.

Without waiting for Wu Lin to sweep a few times, Yan Yu quickly approached Wu Lin with the puppet and reached out to grab the flashlight in Wu Lin's hand.

How could Wu Lin let him succeed, and avoided it with a slight retraction of his arm.

"What for?" I asked Yanyu.

Yan Yu lowered his voice and said, "Don't take it, my dad said that there is a kind of fierce ghost in the ghost building that kills people without seeing blood, and looks similar to Ye Mozi!" As long as you take a light on this thing, it will wake up easily. ”

I immediately glanced at Wu Lin, and Wu Lin understood, first extinguished the flashlight, and then took out a cold light from his backpack.

This particular tube only emits a fairly dim blue light, and although the light range is very narrow and not bright enough, it can roughly allow us to see the road under our feet.

At the moment when Wu Lin just turned on the cold light, there was a sudden "fluttering and fluttering" sound above our heads, and one of the "leaves" embedded inverted in the roof suddenly twisted, and then we saw a leaf slowly open and turn into two connected leaves - it was a moth with wings that were no different from dead leaves, and the next breaking sound was made when it flapped its wings.

The three of us looked up at the leaf moth at the same time, and saw that after it fluttered a few times, it suddenly exploded into bright green flames with a "ping" sound.

Isn't this the same cold fire that I encountered earlier?

No wonder Yanyu's parents said that it was a fierce ghost that killed people without seeing blood, if it was touched by this thing, the place where it touched would be directly teleported to the quadruple space, and there was indeed no blood.

The light on its body was so bright, if I didn't make other leaf moths would also be awakened, I not only hesitated, but immediately summoned Lechuan Shui, first extinguished the cold flame on the moth's body, and then spread the yang line, and directly tied it back.

Strangely enough, as soon as the flame was extinguished, the thing was dead, and when it fell into my hands, all that was left was a dry corpse.

Looking at the moth corpse in my hand, Yan Yu lowered his business and sighed, Wu Lin didn't want to show his nervousness, but I still saw him stretch his throat.

I threw the moth corpse, and I heard Yanyu whisper, "If the sound is too loud and the light is too bright, it will wake up these moths." ”

Wu Lin pressed his palm downward, making a gesture to lower his voice and footsteps, I first nodded, and then asked Yan Yu with a little worry: "Your puppet...... I don't make much noise when I climb the stairs. ”

Glaive answered my question with action, and he quickly jumped off the doll, took out two thick sheepskin mats from his backpack, and carefully tied them to the soles of the doll's feet.

When he was ready, I beckoned him to climb the stairs with Wu Lin.

It is said that this building has been built for at least 3,000 years, but whether it is the wall, the ground, or the stone steps under the feet, it seems to be brand new, and even on the stone steps, you can still see the powder left by the stone when the stone was struck.

This scene in front of me reminded me of all kinds of experiences at the bottom of the water, where Lao Zuo and I also found a special area where time has permanently stopped, and time here seems to have stopped flowing.

I walked in front, Wu Lin followed closely behind, he lowered the cold light in his hand, and helped Yanyu light it up, while Yanyu played the leaf flute softly, and manipulated the puppet to climb the stairs.

Seriously, what I'm most worried about now is Yanyu, he's very nervous, his breath is not steady at all when he plays the bamboo leaf flute, as long as he breathes urgently, the sound will suddenly become louder, and if he doesn't get it right, he will wake up the moths around him.

Every moth is a cloud of cold flames, and so many cold flames are pressed at the same time, and the little Lechuan water I summoned is not enough at all.

On several occasions the rain failed to control its breath, causing the tune to rise suddenly, and at that time some of the leaf moths began to flicker their wings restlessly, but fortunately these moths fell asleep deeply, and they were not completely awakened, and after a few flickering of their wings, they fell back into a deep sleep.

Do you know what I'm most worried about, what I'm most worried about is the sudden green fire that erupts from those moths.

Thanks to Lord Yama, who is annoying to me and unwilling to accept me, every time there is no danger.

Half an hour later, we finally arrived at the top floor, where there were no square pillars two meters wide and no leaf moths on top of the walls, but we still couldn't relax, because there was no road here, and we didn't know how to go.

I whispered to Yanyu, "And then, how to go?" ”

Yan Yu's eyes swirled several times, sweeping the situation on this floor several times, and finally shook his head like a rattle.

Uncle, this kid really doesn't know anything, the annoying thing is that we can't leave him behind, if we don't have him, it will be difficult for us to crack the glue layer left by the old Yan family.

At this time, Wu Lin squatted down and knocked twice on the floor in the center of the room.

I also suspected that there was a mechanism on the ground, but I didn't dare to hit the floor with my hands, for fear that if I hit it too hard, it would cause a vibration and wake up the moth.

Wu Lin didn't dare to exert his strength, as soon as his fingers touched the ground, he had to pick it up quickly, he just knocked it a few times repeatedly, then raised his head and whispered: "It seems to be hollow." ”

I frowned, "Are you sure?" ”

Wu Lin knocked on the ground again and shook his head: "I can't be completely sure." ”
