【580】Boy, we meet again!
(Cat flutter Chinese)
"Take care!" Successfully persuaded Xu Cheng to return the same way, until we saw them go straight away, and then we did not hesitate.
Everyone got together and had a brief discussion, and everyone couldn't help but nod solemnly, and finally made up their minds!
Only then did Xu Zhenren, under the leadership of Xu Zhenren, he hurriedly rushed straight towards the huge portal before.
"Huh-" Rao Youjiang Li repeatedly assured that we would not encounter any danger when we entered.
But with the experience of the snake demon of the Liu family before, to say that we are not nervous at all, it is obviously false.
But no matter how nervous we are, what can we do? I could only take a deep breath and bite the bullet, and then slowly and cautiously walked towards the door.
Thankfully, it seemed that we had not encountered any danger, and after the darkness and light in front of us, we were soon able to pass through the huge portal in front of us with ease.
It's just that behind the portal, there is a jump down the stairs, so we all stumble a little under our feet!
I had just stepped through the door, and I didn't even have time to look at the surrounding environment at this time, so I quickly looked at the people around me for the first time.
It wasn't until I found that everyone around me was safe and sound, and after a lot, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in my heart, and then I had time to quickly take a look at the completely unfamiliar environment around me.
The first thing that caught our eyes was the unusually wide bluestone steps under our feet, and then when we looked around, it was desolate, and we couldn't see any green vegetation growing at all.
It's a bit like the Gobi Desert in the middle of the Mongolian Plateau, and even more desolate than the Gobi Desert! And the quality of the soil around here seems to be very different from the outside.
As far as the eye could see, it was pitch black, as if it had been burned by fire, a veritable scorched earth!
"I'll go! It's too desolate, isn't it? Muttering to myself, I couldn't help but ask Jiang Li
"Are you sure this is the legendary Netherworld?"
"That's right!" Nodding affirmatively, Jiang Li subconsciously replied
"The canyon we passed through earlier should be the place where the two worlds of yin and yang overlap! And once we cross this huge portal behind us at this time, every inch of land under our feet is under the jurisdiction of the underworld! ”
"If you don't believe me, you can try to sense the fluctuations around you! Except for some of the heavenly and earthly treasures that we carry ourselves, we will no longer be able to absorb even the slightest trace of heaven and earth aura from the outside world! ”
"Oh?" Frowning slightly, I really started the internal exercises, and tried to sense the fluctuations of the Qi field around me.
As expected, as Jiang Li said, I really didn't feel the slightest fluctuation of aura here.
The only thing that could be felt was the bursts of rich yin qi that was almost indissolvable, and the aura of death mixed with it.
And in such an environment, it is obviously impossible for us to live here for a long time, because we have lost our strength, and the true qi in our body is really less than a point, except for the heavenly and earthly treasures we carry, we have no way to replenish any energy at all.
"That's it!" At the same time, Xu Zhenren had obviously sensed something, and couldn't help but hurriedly urge us
"Let's talk while walking, the place of right and wrong is not suitable for a long time, the longer we stay in this ghost place, the more unfavorable it will be for us, we have to quickly find a way to find Qiu Yu's predecessors and others, this is the right thing!"
"That's right!" Also nodded, and then I hurriedly asked Jiang Li again
"How do I get there now?"
"Let's go down this staircase first!" Jiang Li subconsciously pointed to the end of the steps at the foot of the mountain
"According to the memory in my mind, there should be a large ghost market about ten miles away from here! I think Brother Zhou, they are probably in that ghost market! As he spoke, he couldn't help but admonish us with a solemn face
"But we'll have to be careful! It is said that this passage was guarded by the Minotaur himself! At the bottom of this stone staircase, there seems to be a statue of a bull's head, so we'd better not alarm it, otherwise we'll ......."
"Bull's head?" didn't even wait for Jiang Li to finish speaking, I couldn't help but be stunned on the spot, and said in my heart, Is there really a bull head and horse face in this world, and there is such a yin difference as black and white impermanence?
But it's no wonder if you think about it, since even the underworld is peaceful
"Yin Luo Ten Heavenly Sons" are all real, so the existence of yin is naturally a very normal thing.
"Huh?" Really! Almost halfway down the stairs or so we had just gone, passed me
"Tianyantong" observation, I really saw a very huge bull head statue! That's weird!
As early as when Jiang Li's words just fell, I had already carefully glanced at the end of the steps under my feet, the place was obviously empty, and I didn't seem to find any statues.
Why did it suddenly pop up now? It stands to reason that such a large statue, let alone be mine
"Tianyan is clear", even if it is the naked eye of ordinary people, at least you can see a rough outline, right?
The statue is really big, at least nearly twenty meters tall, right? Holding a huge trident in his hand, his body doesn't look much different from a human.
It's just that there is a huge bull's head on the neck, but it is harmonious
In "Journey to the West", the image of the Bull Demon King is very similar. The golden light in my eyes kept flickering, and I was thinking suspiciously, but Jiang Li next to me couldn't help but be startled and hurriedly stopped me
"Don't look!"
"This thing is wicked! Don't say that it's your 'eye master', even if an ordinary person looks at it, it will be the first to notice it! ”
"Really?" As soon as these words came out, I couldn't help but be equally startled, and then I asked with a fox on my face
"But we didn't find out that there was a ...... here just now" Before I could finish speaking, Jiang Li seemed to have guessed the confusion in my heart a long time ago, and couldn't help but point straight behind us
"Look at the back!"
"Huh?" I glanced at him in some surprise, and although I was a little inexplicable, I subconsciously glanced back at the direction of the previous portal.
It didn't matter, but it startled me, for at some point, next to the portal we had just passed, a statue of the same size had suddenly risen again!
The difference is that this statue is not a bull's head, but a monster with a human body and a horse's head! Even if I think about it with my toes, I know it's definitely folklore
"Horse face" too.
"?" Suddenly startled in my heart, my face couldn't help but be even more confused, and I subconsciously asked again
"What's the situation? There was nothing in that place just now, huh? ”
"Heh......" As soon as these words came out, Xu Xiaowan immediately laughed, and before Jiang left her mouth, she had already taken the lead in laughing
"You don't understand that, do you? Do you know what the magnifying glass principle is? ”
"Magnifying glass principle?" As soon as Xu Xiaowan's voice fell, I couldn't help but be even more suspicious, and said in my heart that it was so decent, how could this be followed
"Amplifying the realm" is involved? But anyway, I also relied on my real talent to get into the university, for what she said
The "magnifying glass principle", of course, I still have the impression, is not what it is called
"Convex Mirror Imaging Principle"? To put it simply, the closer the magnifying glass is to the object, the larger the object we see.
"Wait!" Suddenly, I seemed to remember something again and asked hurriedly
"You mean to say that the two statues we see are not real images at all, but virtual images reflected in our eyes?"
"That's right!" Xu Xiaowan nodded subconsciously, and then smiled
"I didn't see it, you're good at physics!"
"But it has nothing to do with the laws of physics, I'm just going to use it as an example!"
"In fact, once we set foot in the spiritual realm, many of the things we encounter are actually contrary to the common sense of physics! For example, some legendary beasts, such as dragons and phoenixes, once they enter a certain state, the farther away we are from them, the bigger the image they will show us! On the other hand, once we get really close to them, they get smaller and smaller......"
"Really?" I frowned slightly, I was a little confused by what she said, but soon my eyes lit up, because as we descended the stone steps, and when we got closer and closer to the statue of the bull's head at the foot of the mountain, the statue was getting smaller and smaller!
In just such a blink of an eye, there must be at least a nearly twenty-meter-tall bull head statue, but at this time, it has suddenly shrunk to only more than ten meters high?
"It seems...... Is that really the case? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but glance back at the place where I was near the portal
"Horse-faced statue". We found that as we got farther and farther away from it, it really became bigger and bigger, and it was conservatively estimated that it would have to be hundreds of meters high!
It's just that the appearance has become very blurry, and if we go any further, we probably won't be able to see it, right?
In a moment of confusion, we finally followed the stone steps to the foot of the mountain, and then looked at the direction of the door, and the horse-faced statue had disappeared.
The statue of the bull's head, which was getting closer and closer to us, had shrunk to the normal size of a human at this time, and even the statue of the bull's head had completely disappeared......
"Whew-" Only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief, but my heart tightened! Somehow, I always felt that something was strange, especially at the position where the bull's head statue had just been erected, as if there was always a pair of eyes, staring at me at this time, and even sneering at me...... But when I glanced at it, I didn't find the slightest clue!
At the same time, we have come to the end of the stone steps, and there are only seven or eight steps left in total, and we will walk out of this stone step.
"Delusion?" Frowning slightly, I had to comfort myself so much in my heart, maybe I was really the only one who was a little too much.
However, almost just as such a thought flashed through my mind, and I was about to quickly clear my mind of the messy thoughts.
A cold voice that didn't seem to have the slightest daring color sounded in my ears at this time.
"Boy! We meet again! "Cat flutter Chinese
