Chapter 240: Staircase of Stump Limbs
Wei Lai was much calmer than Gao Zhiying, but his heart couldn't be calm, he had tried it with an ancient sword, the material of the boundary monument was particularly hard, and now it suddenly entered Gao Zhiying's palm, just thinking about it felt weird, not to mention the existence of the red lotus mark.
Wei Lai didn't know what to do at all, even if he cut off Gao Zhiying's palm, it might not be helpful now, but seeing that Gao Zhiying was panicked, there was nothing abnormal in the other, which made Wei Lai feel a lot more at ease, if the other party turned into a ghost, Wei Lai might just surrender.
"Hey, don't be stunned, how do you feel?" Wei Lai touched Gao Zhiying in a daze, startled the other party, and then asked.
Gao Zhiying raised his palm to look at it, then stretched out his palm towards Wei Lai, and said, "Well, this thing has appeared, but not only is the body not abnormal, but it feels more energetic and strong." ”
Wei Lai looked at Gao Zhiying's palm, and in the center of Gao Zhiying's palm, there was a red mark, which was particularly clear on the palm, as if it was engraved on it.
Wei Lai stepped forward and rubbed vigorously, and found that the mark was like a birthmark, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get the mark off.
Hearing Gao Zhiying's words, Wei Lai felt even more surprised, when the boundary monument entered the palm of his hand, not only did he not feel abnormal, but his body and spirit became much stronger, what kind of truth is this?
"Don't worry, it's okay for the time being, Liulipei didn't respond, it means that your condition is not bad, maybe it's a good thing." Wei Lai tried to gain insight into Gao Zhiying, but found that there was nothing wrong with Gao Zhiying, there was no dead qi in his body, and even Liulipei did not give an early warning.
Gao Zhiying didn't seem to comfort himself when he saw Wei Lai, not to mention that he didn't notice the abnormality, although he was a little apprehensive in his heart, he also believed Wei Lai's statement, after all, there was no problem with his body, and it was always a good thing to become stronger.
Gao Zhiying recovered, Wei Lai looked towards the entrance of the cave, after the boundary monument disappeared, the entrance of the cave was revealed, and the gloomy aura could be felt, but now there was no movement, the blazing heat of the Chiyang Tower and the gloom of the Xuanyin Tower disappeared completely, as if this cave entrance was very ordinary, and there was no danger at all.
However, Wei Lai would not believe this, the previous visions showed that the bottom of this cave was by no means right, not simple, not to mention anything else, if they went on like this, it would be a big problem to escape.
In the Chiyang Tower, they can come to the top of the tower and escape from the top floor, but in the Xuanyin Tower, the top of this tower is the most exit, if they go in and are sealed, they really have no way to escape.
Wei Lai had to take these things into account, he had encountered them in the ancient tomb, when they entered the tomb, the way out behind them was automatically closed, if this was the case, they had to think of a way to escape.
Wei Lai took out the flashlight he brought, and shone it towards the idea of the entrance of the cave, the light of the flashlight passed through the darkness, and the silence of the Xuanyin Tower for thousands of years was broken, and the dim light wandered in the tower, like a lamp guiding the way for ghosts.
It made Wei Lai feel strange, he didn't find anything except the staircase down, and this staircase was particularly strange, not a normal regular appearance, but composed of strangely shaped limbs.
These limbs are made of stone, but they are carved to lifelike the stumps of a normal human body, and are used to build a ladder upwards.
"Staircase of stump limbs, no wonder it is called an evil monk." Wei Lai remembered the record of the stone tablet on the top floor of the Chiyang Pagoda, and now it seems that there is nothing wrong with calling these monks of the Xuanyin Pagoda evil monks, if it is Wei Lai, he will even describe them as evil monks.
"Let's go down and have a look." Wei Lai thought about it for a long time, but still didn't think of a good way, if they went down, maybe they really couldn't come up, and now seeing this stump staircase, although it was a little scary, it was also a way to escape, and the boundary monument was absorbed by Gao Zhiying, so it should not be able to block the exit.
"Okay." Gao Zhiying was very scared to go down, but Wei Lai was helping himself, if he was cowardly, maybe Wei Lai would be disgusted, after all, it was his own business, and he couldn't hold Wei Lai back.
Wei Lai let Gao Zhiying follow behind him, he took the ancient sword to open the way in front, when he stepped on the stump staircase, suddenly there was a whirring wind in his ears, and the originally quiet place began to be noisy, which seemed to affect his own thinking and put his consciousness in a state of panic.
"Stay calm, don't pay attention to these voices, everything else is fake, as long as you don't care yourself, nothing will happen." Wei Lai reminded Gao Zhiying loudly, but Gao Zhiying couldn't hear it at all, and was very surprised by Wei Lai's words.
"What? Do you hear the sound? Gao Zhiying looked at Wei Lai suspiciously, he didn't hear any noise, and the surroundings were still extremely quiet.
"It's okay, follow me." Wei Lai's face was a little unnatural, and Gao Zhiying didn't hear the sound, which made Wei Lai feel incredible, and guessed that it was related to the Red Lotus Seal.
Then, Wei Lai himself could hear the voices, these voices were very clear, as if someone was whispering in his ear, and it seemed that there were many people in a meeting, there were old people sighing, there were children playing, there were love words between men and women, and even the roar of jackals.
Wei Lai used a flashlight to shine around, but he didn't find anything abnormal, the stairs were very narrow and long, the surroundings were empty, and there was no figure at all, but the voice was getting clearer and clearer, and it sounded in his ears.
Wei Lai felt more and more that something was wrong, he suddenly stopped his body, and Gao Zhiying behind him bumped into Wei Lai, and asked suspiciously, "Wei Lai, why did you stop?" ”
Wei said, "You go up and walk in front, and I will follow behind." ”
Gao Zhiying was a little puzzled and didn't understand why Wei Lai was like this, but he did it honestly.
When Gao Zhiying walked in front, Wei Lai followed behind, the ringing in his ears actually disappeared, and behind Gao Zhiying, Wei Lai found an abnormal scene.
The stump staircase is long and narrow, suspended in the air and hovering structure, the empty surroundings suddenly lit up, a faint red lotus flickered, filling the entire space, Gao Zhiying's palm, exuding a strange light, accompanied by the red lotus flower.
Wei Lai looked at it carefully, and found that his body was dropped by the lotus, and soon disappeared in the body, his body couldn't help but not become weak, and his spirit and physical strength all increased, although it was not as obvious as Gao Zhiying's increase, but Wei Lai's mind was sharp, and he could perceive these subtle things.
"Damn, it looks like I'm in danger too." Wei Lai expected in his heart that as long as he entered the Xuanyin Tower, he would be infected by the red lotus, but the degree of infection was different, although his physical strength had increased, but Wei Lai did not think that these were good things, being contaminated by the red lotus would definitely do no good, and it would always be a hidden danger.
Wei Lai has no choice, he can only go down hard-headed now, the ghost knows what will happen next, since he promised Gao Zhiying to save him, Wei Lai must solve Gao Zhiying's problem, not to mention that he is also full of curiosity about the Xuanyin Tower, if he can get the holy relics, Wei Lai's goal this time will be achieved.
Wei Lai didn't urge the soul fire, he was now in the air, and it would be some distance to reach the ground, if he urged the soul fire, if there was an accident, he might fall down, Wei Lai didn't want to be smashed into flesh.
Watching the red lotus continue to enter the body, Wei Lai felt more energetic, and the more this happened, the more strange Wei Lai felt.
"It's on the ground." Gao Zhiying said suddenly, waking Wei Lai up from his thoughts.
Wei Lai saw Gao Zhiying standing on the ground, and Gao Zhiying's complexion was not abnormal, when Wei Lai stepped on the ground, the cold feeling instantly hit his heart, and the cold aura around him rushed to his face, as if it was an ancient frozen era, without any temperature.
"You didn't feel cold? I mean, there's nothing abnormal about you? Wei Lai couldn't help but shudder, but found that Gao Zhiying was not abnormal, but looked at him suspiciously.
"No, do you feel cold?" Gao Zhiying looked around, looking at Wei Lai's eyes and feeling strange, he didn't feel any coldness at all.
"It's okay, the situation seems to be a little complicated." Wei Lai realized that something was wrong, but he didn't know what the reason was, Gao Zhiying felt differently from himself, to put it bluntly, it was the relationship between the red lotus imprint on the palm of his hand.
Wei Lai asked Gao Zhiying to raise his palm, and he found that Gao Zhiying's palm was still like this, but the red lotus mark became much clearer, which made Wei Lai wonder, could it be because of absorbing the red lotus in the air.
Wei Lai raised his hand to look at his palm, and found that there was nothing abnormal in his palm, he also absorbed a lot of red lotus, but there were no side effects until now, which made him very strange.
"Is it a toxin?" Wei Lai thought of this possibility, but he hadn't heard of the toxins that made the body stronger, not to mention that he himself had a glass to protect his body, which could be said to be invulnerable.
Wei Lai shook his head, and found that it was so strange when he first entered the Xuanyin Tower, if he really went deep into the ground, he might encounter even more strange things, and couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive, wondering if he was a little reckless, and came in without any thought.
Wei Lai saw that Gao Zhiying was more nervous than himself, Gao Zhiying was now completely counting on Wei Lai, if Wei Lai was afraid, his only backbone was gone, Wei Lai said to him with a smile: "Don't worry, I just feel weird, you follow me behind, you must listen to my command." ”
Wei Lai was afraid that Gao Zhiying would not remember, so he repeated: "Remember, you must do what I say." ”
It's not that Wei Lai is verbose, but he must emphasize in advance that Gao Zhiying is not Huo Meng, Huo Meng and they come to cooperate with the tacit understanding, and Huo Meng can help him in case of danger, and Gao Zhiying is a bit cumbersome to put it bluntly, if the danger suddenly comes, Wei Lai asks Gao Zhiying to leave him, but Gao Zhiying is hesitating, not only will he encounter danger, but also Wei Lai will be affected.
"Yes, I remember." Gao Zhiying responded, Wei Lai saw that Gao Zhiying was very solemn, and knew that he took his words to heart, so he stopped speaking.
