Chapter Twenty-Three: The Long Staircase, the Mural of Ghosts and Gods
Bang!
My punching fist slammed into the head of the poor man called "Bedbug", and it felt like it had hit a rock, and my hand hurt terribly.
But I didn't hesitate, and with another punch, I knocked the man to the ground.
Then I didn't give him any chance to resist and shout, I suddenly covered his mouth, and raised my hand to give him a fat beating.
I didn't show any mercy, and I didn't have any intolerance.
Judging from the cruel methods they used to deal with me before, I can know that these guys are all brutes.
Even if they lined up to be shot, none of them were innocent.
After striking the guy in the head, and after he couldn't resist any longer, I reached for his hand, and soon I got the soft gold cord that belonged to me and wrapped it around my waist.
Then I dragged the guy down another path.
I disposed of the bug in a shallow pit 100 meters away from the other road, and knocked it again before leaving, and after making sure that he couldn't wake up for a while, I returned to the space I had just had.
When I came, it was a coincidence that the gang actually opened the heavy and thick obsidian door.
I heard a rumbling sound, and the whole space seemed to tremble.
The pebbles were beating under my feet.
Immediately afterwards, there was a cheer, and then everyone walked into the door, leaving only a huge rat corpse, not far from the door, which was neatly placed.
I didn't dare to show my face immediately, but waited until the footsteps were far away, and then slowly leaned in.
The huge black space, the obsidian gate, revealed a gap that could accommodate one person.
I was standing at the doorway, and there was a wind blowing from the inside out.
I hesitated for a long time.
In fact, from the perspective of survival, the most important thing a person who has just escaped from the danger of life and death should do is not to get close to a group of murderous and ruthless guys, but to avoid them from afar.
Since Old Man Bai was able to find me through the plum blossom brand on my right wrist, it was actually the safest way for me to find a place to hide.
Because I don't have to deal with these murderous guys, and I don't have to fight them to the death.
After all, as a little guy who has just awakened, even if I progress rapidly, I can't be the opponent of these guys.
Especially that Brother Leopard and Brother Wen, they give me the feeling that they are at least above the level of a big demon.
As they say, the reason why they are now under the command of the enemy family in Kyoto is just to seek refuge and survive here.
Competently, they are not inferior to anyone.
Such a person, taken out alone, is an extremely powerful character, not to mention the fat sea that may come at any time, and the master of the Kyoto enemy behind him?
However, there was a reason why I had to stay.
Because in the conversation between those guys just now, there was a word that was like a magnet, and I was so attracted that I couldn't leave.
Candlesticks are dark.
The Candle Flame, along with Ugin, Ogim, and Sirang, was an important introduction for me to storm the calamity and survive it.
Only by getting these four things can I get through the fivefold level.
I can truly awaken the bloodline talent of the Nightkin and become a real Nightkin or I will die due to the clash of bloodlines and the curse of the heavens.
Throughout the ages, there is only one Lingming Stone Monkey bloodline nightcrawler who can successfully cross the five-fold level.
That person was later called "Monkey King".
I never imagined that I would be in such a ghost place, and I would hear words that are almost only in legends.
Not to mention anything else, the word "candle yin" alone is enough for me to do my best.
Fight for your life, too.
I took a deep breath, then walked slowly forward, walked through the crack in the door with a "whining" sound, and came inside, and found that in the middle of this small stone room, there was actually a sunken staircase.
It goes all the way down, very deep.
Almost hundreds of steps underneath, the beam of a strong flashlight came, constantly swaying, and a faint sound came up.
The material of the steps was strange, and when I looked at it, it was some kind of glowing stone.
It was neat, almost two meters in length, and then fifty centimeters in height.
On both sides of the steps, a large number of reliefs were carved.
I squinted, adjusted my pupils, and tried to look at the reliefs on the walls on either side of the steps.
I found the frescoes and reliefs on the walls to be very different from those on the obsidian gates, very insolent and freehand, imbued with a strong sense of individuality, and the reliefs seemed to have been drawn by one person, as if they had been quickly sketched with objects of gold and iron, and then burned with flames.
The content in it is also full of killings, fights and mountains of corpses and a sea of blood, and from the messy outline, you can see a lot of specific images.
I could see a lot of familiar animals, as well as the appearance of nightcrawlers.
What is known, what is not recognized, as if countless images are revealed in this long corridor of steps.
When I went down to the twentieth step, I saw a very familiar image.
Domineering.
It is the big turtle that has lived for thousands of years, and is ready to return to the world but has done something bad, and it also appears in the mural.
Of course, such mural sketches are really freehand, like the wild grass in calligraphy.
If I hadn't seen the appearance of the big turtle with my own eyes, and could feel the arrogant and domineering charm in the relief of the mural, maybe I really wouldn't know what these lines were.
The more I looked, the more frightened I became.
There is a saying that describes it very aptly, it is called "magic work".
Such a scenario is simply not something that can be achieved by human beings.
Who did all this?
Is it really the Great Demon Vermilion Bird of the Wilderness, or did it already exist before it?
I do not know.
I was in awe, not knowing how to express it, and just as I was engrossed in the charm of the demon beast under Naha, a beam of light shot up from the depths below.
The moment I sensed the light, I fell straight down on the steps.
I try to be as light as possible so that people don't hear too much movement.
Because the group had already gone very down, the beam of light came up, and it didn't fall on me, probably because of the blind spot, so after looking at it for a while, they left again.
This made me breathe a sigh of relief, but also a little more vigilant.
This is not the time for me to appreciate this miracle.
I had to survive before I could have other minds to appreciate the wonders and beauties that were not ordinary people.
I waited for the beam to disappear for a few moments before I dared to cautiously descend the steps.
And I was always on the lookout, and if any call-up was discovered, I immediately bowed down so that no one could see it.
The process of descending the stairs is very long.
I don't even know how many steps I went down, but it took me more than half an hour, and when the echo came from the front, I knew I was almost there.
At this time, I was extra cautious.
Because just now, a bright flashlight shines towards it from time to time, which shows one thing.
The people below are actually suspicious, and they feel that Hou Mo, who has disappeared, may also follow.
After all, the most fundamental reason why they discovered this secret realm was because they were chasing me.
I was afraid that the gang would set up an ambush at the bottom, and when I showed up, several people appeared together and captured me, so I was very careful.
The closer I got to the bottom, the more careful I became.
Later, I crawled down almost step by step.
Because of the changes in my eyes, my vision began to change and I was able to see the subtleties even in the very dim situation.
I don't know if I thought too much, but when I walked down like this, and when I was about to reach the bottom, I didn't see any signs of an ambush.
If it had been before, I might have gone down without thinking.
But after my previous experience, and knowing the viciousness and ruthlessness of these people, I seemed to be more patient, not panicked, and lay on the ground steadily, looking at the empty exit not far below, and waited patiently.
One-minute, two-minute, three-minute......
Before I knew it, time passed quietly, and I don't know how long it was, and suddenly, I heard a loud roar far below.
Immediately after that, someone screamed: "Da Tuo, Zhang Da Tuo......"
Listening to that movement, it should be far away, and there is a distance from it.
At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps at the mouth, and then they rushed away into the distance, and I heard it, but I held back my temper.
I waited five minutes before tiptoeing down.
I didn't think that I had just walked to the bottom of the stairs when a strong wind came in front of me.
Although this time it was very ruthless, I had been prepared, but I was not afraid, but I jumped towards the rear, only to see a tall man appear in front of me.
He held a sharp dagger in his hand, and with one miss, he protected his chest.
The guy said viciously: "Dog day thing, you killed my little black, I let you pay for it!" ”
I heard it and immediately understood.
This person is the leopard brother.
