Chapter 313: Human Skin Lantern
The second master nodded: "It's not just quite distant, they don't know what kind of smoke they put when they were in the Mass Grave Mountain, and even my exorcism incense has been affected." ”
Mr. Sun touched his chin, looked at the smooth ground again, raised his head and asked Liang Houzai: "The attainments of the Yuxian first vein in the array are the most superb among the three veins of the Soul Village, right?" The other party made such an arrangement in this place, deliberately to lead Youyi to break the formation...... If the formation here is broken, maybe it will trigger other mechanisms? ”
Liang Houzai nodded: "That's what it means." ”
The second master looked at Liang Houzai with a very amazed look, smacked his tongue, but did not speak.
At this time, Liang Houzai said: "I remember that when I saw this building before, there were two rooms on the roof of the same size as the elevator room, but after coming up, why is there only one elevator room?" ”
I asked him, "Disappeared one?" ”
Liang Houzai nodded, pointed to the left side of the elevator room and said, "One of the rooms there is gone." ”
Xian'er immediately raised the lantern and shone it in the direction of Liang Houzai's finger, and the left wall of the elevator room and the ground to its left were reflected in a faint green by the fox fire.
But even in the light of the fox fire, the vanished house still didn't show up, and the ground where the room was supposed to appear looked much smoother than the others.
After a while, Senior Brother Feng sighed: "Fortunately, there is a thick load to remind me, otherwise I would have fallen into the other party's way." ”
After speaking, Senior Brother Feng walked quickly to the side of the elevator room, pinched out a small handful of yin and yang soil from his pocket, and sprinkled it on the roof of the elevator room.
I don't know much about Senior Brother Feng's lineage, and I don't know what he's doing now.
I saw that after the handful of yin and yang soil flew into the sky, it flew out quickly in all directions like exploding fireworks.
Senior Brother Feng stood in place and pondered for a while, and then he came to the right side of the elevator hall under our gaze, and slapped a few times on the wall, and there was a very normal "pop" sound on the wall.
At least to me, it sounded like a normal slap.
At this time, Senior Brother Feng beckoned to me: "There is a way, do me a favor!" ”
I hurried over, Senior Brother Feng pointed to the wall, and said to me, "Use the green steel sword to cut this position, see clearly, this position." ”
I nodded, and then I swung the green steel sword and smashed it hard into the area of Senior Brother Feng's finger.
When the solid body of the green steel sword hit the wall, it heard a "clang", as if it had hit a bronze mirror.
I've heard the sound of a bronze mirror colliding with an iron object, the same sound that a very thick bronze mirror makes when it is struck.
Sure enough, when I smashed it like this, a brass mirror appeared on the wall out of thin air, and at this time it had been smashed by the green steel sword and deformed.
On the top of the wall is a copper nail the length of an index finger, on which is tied a black line, and at the end of the black line, there hangs this bronze mirror that is constantly vibrating and swaying.
Why does such a mirror appear out of thin air on the wall? I don't have much research on formation, and Qimen Dunjia is only at the entry level, so I can't explain this kind of thing.
I can usually only see things in this formation with the naked eye, and what I see is what it is, and what it is in my impression is.
When the bronze mirror appeared, the scene on the roof of the building changed slightly.
There was dust on the floor, and there was a glint in the cracks between the bricks, which seemed to be small pieces of metal caught in them.
But the other house that appeared on the roof before still did not appear.
Senior Brother Feng looked at the bronze mirror, raised his head again, and looked at the moonlight in the night sky.
I also looked up at the moon.
I remember that before the bronze mirror appeared, the moon in the sky was a slightly raised half moon, but now that I look at it, the half moon has become a tooth moon. Only the moonlight was still bright, not at all like it emanated from a slender crescent.
But it was supposed to be the middle of the lunar calendar, and the moon was supposed to be close to a complete circle.
Senior Brother Feng walked over and turned the mirror with his hand, and with the rotation of the bronze mirror, the shape of the moon was also changing, first it became wider and rounder, and then it became thinner and narrower, and the only thing that remained unchanged was the bright moonlight splashing down from the starry sky.
Eventually, the moon disappeared completely, and the surroundings changed a second time.
At this time, a thick layer of dust could be seen on the rooftop, and there were many palm-sized mirrors embedded in the ground, which were also embedded in the cement on the ground at different angles, reflecting the moonlight.
At the northernmost point of the rooftop, there is also an offering table, on which is placed a prism, on which the moonlight is reflected and illuminates the four corners of the roof.
In the northwest corner, there is also a bamboo pole with a pale red lantern on it.
The lantern skin seems to be very thick, and the fire inside is not too bright, and when the lamp flickers, the lantern skin still glows with a greasy luster from time to time.
Senior Brother Feng looked at the lantern, frowned twice, and muttered, "Good Yin Formation." ”
After that, he said to the second master: "Second master, please dismantle the lantern." ”
The second master didn't talk nonsense, he walked up with an arrow, and ripped off the lantern casually, he put his face on the mouth of the lantern, probably wanting to blow out the candle inside, but at this time, I found that the second master's movements obviously paused.
He eventually blew out the lantern, then breathed through his teeth and said to us briefly, "Human skin." ”
As he spoke, he held up the lantern so that the bottom of the lantern was facing us, and we saw that the bottom of the lantern was a straightened, complete human face, with eyes, mouth, and nose sewn together with needles and threads.
Wong Tai Sin was obviously a little uncomfortable when he saw that face, and turned his face to the side, but the others didn't react, even a few of us juniors, it was not the first time we had seen this kind of thing.
Senior Brother Feng didn't seem to care about the human skin lantern, he squatted down, looked carefully at the mirrors embedded in the ground, sighed again, and said, "Fortunately, Houzai reminded me just now that these mirrors are all organs, and if they are handled a little improperly, we will all suffer." ”
When Senior Brother Feng spoke, he pointed behind me.
I turned to look, only to find that the room that had disappeared out of thin air had now reappeared on the left side of the elevator room, and on the roof of this room was a huge oil drum, and many thin steel wires had been drilled out of the ground, connected to the bottom of the oil drum, and there was a lit torch on the ground of the oil drum.
It seems that these wires are supposed to be connected to the mirrors on the ground, and if they are touched, the oil drum will turn over. Looking at where Master and the others were standing, it was less than two meters away from this room, and if the gasoline spread, it seemed that several people would be engulfed in flames.
To be honest, the mechanism of the oil drum is very crudely arranged, but the terrible thing is that just now, we didn't even notice its existence.
Senior Brother Feng ripped off the bronze mirror on the wall and stuffed it into the crack of the elevator door.
The second master and Mr. Sun extinguished the torches and removed the oil drums from the roof.
When Senior Brother Feng and the others were busy, Liang Houzai came to me thoughtfully with his hands in his hands.
"Brother Dao, don't you think it's strange? Supposedly, when we went upstairs, there was such a big movement, and the people upstairs should have discovered us a long time ago, but why didn't they stop us after we tossed on the roof for most of the day? There was such a sophisticated formation blocking our view just now, if the other party attacked us, they would definitely be able to take advantage of it, but why didn't they do it? ”
In fact, what Liang Houzai said, I have been pondering since just now.
The person hiding on the roof didn't do anything, either because he couldn't get out of it, or he had already fled, or maybe he didn't pay attention to us at all, and he hadn't had enough of it.
I looked at Liang Houzai and asked him, "What do you think?" ”
Liang Houzai shook his head: "I can't figure this thing out, I just think the atmosphere on this building is too weird, it seems that except for a few of us, there are no other living people upstairs at all." Brother Dao, you say, could it be that I made a mistake in judgment, but in fact, there is no one upstairs at all? ”
I thought about it carefully and patted Liang Houzai on the shoulder: "No, your judgment must be right, there is someone upstairs, and this person is still here." ”
Liang Houzai asked me with some doubts: "Is it?" How can you be so sure? ”
I smiled and didn't speak.
Actually, I just want to say two words: "intuition." ”
My intuition tells me that Liang Houzai's judgment is not wrong.
But to be honest, I've never had much confidence in my intuition, even though Master said that people like us who practice small arithmetic all year round will have better intuition than ordinary people.
But how the word intuition should be interpreted, even the master couldn't say. I know that it literally means "first sense without rational reasoning." But why is it that for some people, this unfounded perception is so accurate every time?
Unfounded, yet accurate, this is a paradox at all. What the hell is intuition?
After Senior Brother Feng and Second Master and his party finished tossing the oil drums, they began to hesitate to enter the room that had been hidden before.
Second Master and Senior Brother Feng made up their minds to go in and have a look, but Mr. Sun was very opposed, he thought that the other party knew us too deeply, and the closer we got to them, the more dangerous the surrounding arrangements became.
With such an opponent, we have no chance of winning.
I have to say that Mr. Sun's words are very reasonable.
But he forgot a very important thing, now Liu Wenhui is still in the hands of those people, if Liu Wenhui is in this room, and we don't go in, it will be tantamount to watching this life die at the hands of the enemy.
Most of the people present were elders, and I was not qualified to speak, so I held my hands and listened to their discussions, and my master did not speak during this time.
It wasn't until Mr. Sun and the second master stopped talking that the master said to them: "The person who takes the lead is the way, according to the rules of the industry, what to do next, he has the final say." ”
That's right, even if I'm a junior, in our industry, it's still me who takes the lead in deciding what to do next.
