Snowy Demon Cave Chapter 23 Eternal Life

Seeing that he was in a hurry, it didn't seem like he was lying to me, so he put away his gun, stood up slowly against the wall, and pointed to my flashlight and asked, "No power?" ”

I nodded, and he took two batteries out of his body and threw them at me, and when I was done, the two of them walked briskly through the small door at the other end of the room with flashlights and came to a circular hall.

This hall is about the size of two basketball courts, surrounded by a dense number of small doors, there are more than a dozen floors, and behind each small door there should be a room, I secretly think that there must be tens of thousands of rooms here.

The roof of the cave in the hall is the same as the outside of the castle, the fiery red clouds tumble in the rocks, illuminating all this at the same time, and at the same time covering everything with a strange color, the ground is paved with square black stone bricks, in the middle of the hall, stands a cylindrical eye statue of seven or eight people hugging each other, the column is more than a foot high from the ground, carved a pair of white eyes, this pair of white eyes in the black stone pillar flickering far and near, ethereal, as if there is life.

I asked Li Xiao: "This carving looks like the real thing." ”

"It's not carved, it's natural, the whole temple of Jemoth is built around this thing, according to the parchment map, the center of the whole temple is it, on the map, there is a Sanskrit sentence next to it, I later checked the information, it means the eye of Jemo." ”

Listening to Li Xiao's explanation, I looked at the stone pillar in front of me dumbfounded, and found that the stone pillar looked like jade and not jade, with a smooth surface and an agate-like luster.

I looked around at the dense crowd of doors and asked, "What are these doors for?" ”

"Behind each door there is a passage similar to the one you just passed, but the environment in each passage is different, you are lucky, just mirrors, those mirrors can reflect what you are thinking, like a dream, of course, not all, some of them are things that have already happened, but they may not be in the yang world.

And some of them are much more terrifying, they can directly take people's lives, but there are no detailed explanations on the map, just eighteen representative passages are marked, the god Yemo is called Hades by us, and all our ideas about hell also come from here, but we have simplified it to eighteen layers, you look here, not to mention 1,800 rooms, although we have always believed in the reincarnation of the world, but in fact, there are only infinite tribulations here, and there are a few people who can truly reincarnate. ”

"And how did you find me?" ”

"Hehe, the so-called ever-changing is inseparable, no matter how many passages eventually point here, so I got here first, and then which room had a sound, I went over to check, and I just heard you crying, I ....."

As he was talking, there was a sound of footsteps coming from a door opposite, Li Xiao motioned for me to extinguish the flashlight, and the two quickly turned around, found a dark place, squatted down, and hid.

As soon as he hid, the people over there came out, only to hear Li Ruhai say to himself: "That's it, that's it." ”

Li Xiao heard Li Ruhai's voice, stood up, turned on the flashlight, and Li Ruhai asked nervously on the other side: "Who?" Then came the metallic sound of the bolt being pulled.

"Master, it's me. Li Xiao shouted, I actually don't want to stand up, because there is no one on the other side that I want to see, I wish I could let Li Ruhai take some eternal life early, leave quickly, I can also follow Li Xiao out, from now on I don't owe each other, and I don't communicate with each other, but I can't hide from his voice, so I have to turn on the flashlight and stand up with him.

Li Ruhai asked again in a panic: "Who?" ”

Li Xiao shouted, "Yuanfu, Master." ”

Hearing the word Yuanfu, Li Ruhai calmed down, returned to his usual tone and said: "Ah, Yuanfu, no, it should be Chief Li Xiao, how could you deign to come here?" How? What about your team? ”

When I heard it, I couldn't help but wonder, what about Yuanshou? It's okay if you can't say anything, after all, it's the Li family's business, but Yuanshou has no reason to pretend to be dumb.

Li Xiao responded as she pulled me towards them.

"Master, I sneaked out this time, I originally wanted to make up for my mistakes and help you, but who knew that I would be one step late, but fortunately I saved Lei Dangjia." ”

When I got closer, I found that Yuanshou was covered in blood, and at this time his eyes were closed and lying on the back of a knife, looking at a knife-flat with a strange posture on his back, I looked at it carefully and curiously, and was suddenly surprised to find that Yuanshou's left arm was gone, and a right arm was hanging in front of a knife's chest, which happened to complement Yidaoping's left arm, no wonder they looked very coordinated.

Yidaoping put Yuanshou on the ground, stood up and looked at me coldly, I also looked at him with some annoyance, neither of them spoke, only listened to Li Xiao and Li Ruhai on the side.

Li Ruhai said: "Okay, good, it is also the first thing to save Lei Dangjia, when the old man drinks this immortal water, let's go out together, the previous things are not to blame, you come back and continue to be your senior brother, how about it?" ”

"Of course, it is a great thing to be able to return to the master's sect, but master, are you willing to give up that Fuxi ghost hexagram?" ”

"Hahaha, to be able to live forever, who cares if it's a ghost or not, I live him for two hundred years, three hundred years, my Li family's disciple and banner master, passed down from generation to generation, will only get bigger and bigger, by then why should the world not be my Li family?" Hahaha"

His arrogant and crazy laughter kept echoing in this hall, and I pulled Li Xiao's clothes and asked quietly, "Since this is the center of the temple, where is the eternal life or something?" ”

Li Ruhai actually heard my words and said, "Don't worry, this eternal life is in the eyes of this Yemo, and the old man will go and take it." ”

Saying that, he stepped forward and circled around the pillar left and right for eight or nine circles, watching his expression gradually change from smug to anxious, and finally the beads of sweat on his head fell straight down, it seems that he didn't find the location of the mechanism, Li Ruhai stood and thought for a while, walked in front of Li Xiao, forced out a smile and said: "Yuanfu, where do you think the mechanism of the Eye of Yamo?" ”

"Master, I have already handed over the sheepskin map of this temple to you by hand, if you don't know it, the disciple will not know it. ”

"Hehe, don't act in front of the teacher, that sheepskin map is true to me, but I found that this map is missing a small piece, isn't it in you?" ”

"Haha, I really can't deceive the master's eyes for anything, it's really here with the apprentice, at that time I was just curious, cut a little, and wanted to judge the material and age." ”

"Should that be given to me?" Li Ruhai's mouth was not painful or itchy, but his face was full of a look of preparation for forcible seizure.

"Oh, when I was doing the experiment, I accidentally burned it, Master, you know, to identify whether it is a real sheepskin, you will see it as soon as it is burned, I remember that you taught me." ”

"Okay, it's a good one, but according to your brain, you won't forget what was written on it so quickly, right?" Li Ruhai jumped out from between his teeth word by word.

Li Xiao looked at me with a smile, I looked at him blankly, he turned his head and beckoned to Li Ruhai, Li Ruhai hesitantly stretched out his ears, Li Xiao whispered again, Li Ruhai didn't seem to understand too much at first, looked at him with a puzzled face, Li Xiao nodded solemnly, Li Ruhai also looked at me immediately, I wonder what is wrong with these two people?

Li Ruhai returned to the eye of Yemo suspiciously, between the two eyes, found the correct position, lowered his head and counted the turns on the ground, and recited silently in his mouth, 8, and then knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times, then stood up and took another step forward, knelt down and kowtowed, and then continued to move forward, just like that, counted four groups of numbers, kowtowed four groups of heads, Li Xiao hugged his arms from beginning to end, and watched him with a smile until he knocked on the first brick in front of the stone pillar.

Sure enough, when Li Ruhai finished kowtowing and just stood up, the stone pillar made a huge noise, and as the sound became louder and louder, the two eyes inside the stone pillar really began to move, and I saw the two white eyes in the stone pillar constantly entwining in a circle.

This scene frightened me involuntarily took a few steps back, and dragged Yuanshou backwards, only Li Ruhai was stunned with excitement and surprise, looking at everything in front of him, motionless, Li Xiao still kept smiling and looking at him.

When the two eyes completely stopped moving, I saw that from the position of the pupil of the eye, a crystal clear ball fell out from one side, like two tears, the ball slowly rolled down the dark groove that had just emerged on the stone pillar, and stopped in front of Li Ruhai, Li Ruhai trembled with both hands and gently held the two balls in his hands, looked up at the sky, as if he was looking up to the sky and sighed, and it was like holding back the tears in his eyes.

After a while, he looked down at the ball in his hand, then strode up to us and said to Li Xiao, "Give me your kettle." ”

Then he tore off a strip of his clothes, squatted down, wrapped one of the balls in a strip of cloth, emptied the water in Li Xiao's kettle, hung the strip of cloth wrapped in the ball on top of the kettle, pulled out a dagger, and smashed the ball with a knife.

It turns out that this round ball is like an egg, it is filled with water, as soon as the ball is broken, the water passes through the cloth strip, and falls into the kettle drop by drop, the water is very viscous, and the flow is very slow, after the flow is clean, Li Ruhai picked up the kettle, shook it, moved to Yuanshou's side, broke Yuanshou's mouth with his hand, and was about to pour it in, Li Xiao said in surprise: "Master, this...."

Li Ruhai said righteously: "Your junior brother has been with me for so many years, and this time he almost lost his life in order to protect me, how can I bear to see him like this, why not give him some first?"

After speaking, he took the kettle and gently poured two drops into Yuanshou's mouth, this immortal water was really magical, two drops of water into his mouth for only a few seconds, Yuanshou actually coughed and woke up, and then stood up while coughing, looked back at Li Ruhai, and wanted to say something excitedly, but found that he was missing an arm, and kept coughing with a complicated expression, anxious to speak.

Li Ruhai looked at him excitedly, patted his back gently, signaled not to worry, take your time, Yuanshou coughed while using his right hand, dancing with his hands, as he coughed more and more, I found that he began to change, his face became darker and darker, wrinkles began to gradually increase, his hair changed from black to gray, and his eyes became completely white.

In less than a cigarette time, a young man in his twenties became an old man of seventy or eighty years old, and the change did not stop, Yuanshou's hair began to fall off one by one, and finally became completely bald, and his eyebrows were white, and the person gradually stood unsteadily, fell to the ground, and Yuanshou, who was lying on the ground, curled up in a ball and continued to cough, but the cough became slower and slower, and the interval became longer and longer, and finally only heard a long breathing sound, and the person did not move at all.

But even so, the changes continued, Yuanshou's skin gradually dried and cracked, but there was no blood flowing out, like a dried corpse that had been buried for hundreds of years, the skin turned into thin scales like cicada wings, scattered all over the ground, and at the same time, the bones began to fall apart, crumbling into scum little by little, and finally, the whole person was only left with a puddle of white ash on the ground.

I watched Yuanshou disappear, speechless in surprise, and thought to myself, Li Ruhai is a thousand times more terrifying than any ghost here, he must have guessed that the two balls must be one true and one false, so he deliberately used Yuanshou to test the medicine, but it is a pity that Yuanshou was born with him for so many years, treating him as his own father, before and after the saddle, he waited hard, but he didn't expect to end up like this, hey, I can only blame myself for being blind and following the wrong person.

Li Xiao stared at Yuanshou's ashes, shook his head, sighed in a low voice, Li Ruhai stabbed over there, tore off a strip of cloth from his clothes, wrapped another ball neatly, raised his head, put the ball above his mouth, and couldn't wait to knock it with a dagger, the water in this ball was much thinner, like a clear spring, flowing into his mouth through the strip of cloth.

Li Ruhai looked impatient and swallowed heavily, but before he could finish swallowing, he reached out and grabbed my shoulder and dragged me back, I looked at him puzzled, and he said lightly: "Weak lang." ”

At the same time, after Li Xiao succeeded with a conspiracy, he looked at Li Ruhai with a smug smile, I didn't want to deal with it, but after listening to the word weak lang, I looked at Li Ruhai carefully, only to find that with swallowing, blisters slowly grew on his face, his skin became darker and darker, and his hair stood up one by one, Li Xiao waved his hand at us and walked towards a door next to him, I found that a small circle mark was drawn with white chalk on the side of the door.

We followed him step by step into the door, holding on to the door frame and looking at Li Ruhai, Li Ruhai had already thrown away the strip of cloth in his hand, and was raising his arms flat at this time, smelling around like a dog.

I pulled out my gun and aimed slowly, intending to kill him, Li Xiao stretched out his hand, gently pressed me and said, "Don't fight, this is the eternal life he wants, he got it, he will continue to wander in this dark temple, let's go with him." ”

I thought about it, looked at Li Ruhai, who had already begun to circle around the stone pillar, nodded, put the gun away, Li Xiao said, "Let's go", and led the way and ran towards the wall opposite the room.
