Chapter 702: Cliff Cave
As soon as the words fell, the two masked men turned around and walked into the building, and after tinkering for a while, they saw the two of them walking out carrying a large long box, the leather of which was painted vermilion, which was extremely dazzling in the black and white underworld.
Fan Chuan looked at the two masked men who seemed to be a little struggling, and couldn't help but be curious: "Dare to ask what is in here, is it so heavy?"
The two masked men hurriedly shook their heads and said, "Your Excellency, I'm sorry, I can't tell you at the moment, this is a special order from the Uncrowned King, and when we arrive at the banquet, Your Excellency will naturally know." ”
In desperation, Fan Chuan had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay then, let's go?"
"Yes. ”
The two masked men led the way, and began to shuttle through this strange underworld, where a floating ladder was placed in front of them, and a platform was connected, and halfway through, they would pass by bare cliffs and deep forests filled with white mist.
After this experience, Fan Chuan clearly knew some of the fur about the underworld, the underworld is far more small than what you see from the surface of the Lechuan River, although it is only connected by the towers on the cliff, but the intricate arrangement and construction are enough to shock.
And the two masked men in charge of leading the way never seem to know that they are tired, they have been shuttling for so long, they are still walking like flying, and they don't talk about it along the way, they don't say a word, if it weren't for Fan Chuan's embarrassing question, I'm afraid it will make this picture even more gloomy and bleak.
Finally, after walking a pontoon ladder again, the two masked men stopped in front of a flat cliff.
Fan Chuan noticed that there was no platform in front of him, but a smooth and flat cliff, from top to bottom it was like a big mountain being cut horizontally, and the top of the cliff was covered with dark clouds, and it was not clear to see, and under the cliff, it was still deeply immersed in the Lechuan River.
And in the middle of the neat cliff, Fan Chuan saw a passage, which was in the middle of the cliff, as if it had been deliberately built, and at this time the passage was open, and on both sides of the stone gate of the passage, there were two pots of blue firelight.
If you want to enter this cave in the cliff wall, you must pass through a long staircase composed of more than 100 steps, which can be directly connected to the entrance.
The two masked men stopped in front of the long ladder, and looked up at the entrance of the stone gate cave on the cliff wall at the same time, it seemed that the two of them wanted to walk up the steps, so that this place in the cliff was very likely to be the location of the uncrowned king of the vain death realm.
Fan Chuan couldn't help but say curiously: "Shall we go up now?"
Fan Chuan knew that he couldn't directly ask if this was the location of the uncrowned king, so it would naturally be exposed, although it was a matter of time before he was exposed, but at the moment Fan Chuan still wanted to make sure that nothing went wrong.
The two masked men glanced at Fan Chuan, and then replied: "Yes, Your Excellency, the uncrowned king is holding a banquet here, Your Excellency, please." ”
"Uh......" Fan Chuan smiled slightly: "Let's go in first, I'll go over immediately." ”
The two masked men frowned, but then nodded, "Alright, Your Excellency, let's stop first." ”
After the two masked men stepped on the long ladder, Fan Chuan couldn't help but look behind him, in the direction he had come before, only to see a piece of gray, as well as the looming platform, and the floating ladder that seemed to be floating in the air, as for the specific route when he came, Fan Chuan had long forgotten, there was no comparison in the four places, and it was difficult to remember at all.
After some helplessness, Fan Chuan came back to his senses again, carefully observed the cliff in front of him, and through the blue light at the entrance of the Shimen Cave, Fan Chuan saw that the cliff was mixed with many white bones, just like the deep path outside the flowers on the other side before, all of which were made of white bones.
Fan Chuan couldn't help but be a little resistant, and his heart even rebuked the style of the underworld, which was too cruel, but Fan Chuan didn't know that the underworld was where the ghosts and the undead were located, and the so-called white bones were just the skin left over from the earthly world.
When Fan Chuan took a few steps to the side, he came to the edge of the cliff, and below was the abyss-like surface of the Lethe River, and Fan Chuan could even hear the sound of the Lethe River flowing through the dead silence of the air.
Turning around again and glancing at the entrance of the stone gate cave at the end of the long ladder, Fan Chuan couldn't help but sigh a little, Fan Chuan clearly knew that if he directly entered the entrance of the stone gate at the moment, his identity would naturally be exposed, and a vicious battle would be inevitable, and for the ability of the underworld, Fan Chuan had already seen it, the so-called odds, Fan Chuan did not have much confidence in himself at all.
However, if you don't enter the entrance of this stone gate, then from a young age, the clues about Qiong Ji and Su Qing will be interrupted, and there is also the ethereal hope about Ying Bai, in general, the cultivation realm and the immortal realm, as well as the heavens and all the worlds, will be implicated by the underworld. Fan Chuan didn't want to give up, but for the current unknown, Fan Chuan didn't have the slightest ability to control it.
Entering, it is nine deaths, but you can get more clues.
Retreat, safe and sound, just a trip to the underworld for nothing.
And there is another important reason, Fan Chuan asked himself if he went back to the fairy world now, there was no way to go, he couldn't find the direction at all, and how to leave the underworld after all, Fan Chuan was still confused.
"Hehe......"
Fan Chuan couldn't help but smile bitterly, daring to love this underworld is that there is no return.
Finally, Fan Chuan made up his mind, the first half of his life has been swaying in the wind and rain, and he has experienced a lot of so-called difficulties and setbacks, and it is not bad for this time.
But although Fan Chuan decided to enter the entrance of the stone gate, he still needed some planning, and he couldn't act recklessly, so as not to lose more than he gained.
But right now, Fan Chuan is looking left and right, there is no clue at all, it will not work at all to hide the immortal qi and hide the sky and the sea like that before, not to mention guessing that the ability of the uncrowned king can penetrate everything, it is difficult to work just the lie told by Fan Chuan, after all, the uncrowned king did not feast Fan Chuan at all.
At the moment when Fan Chuan was in a dilemma, suddenly a burst of footsteps came from the darkness not far away, Fan Chuan panicked, and hurriedly dodged to the bottom of the long ladder, hiding under the long ladder alone, with the help of the darkness in the four directions, he hid himself.
As the footsteps approached, Fan Chuan looked out slightly, and saw several black-clothed and masked people walking over, they were silent among themselves, only lowered their heads and climbed the long ladder, ready to go straight to the entrance of the stone gate at the end of the long ladder.
However, due to the width of the long ladder, it can only accommodate two people walking side by side, so at this time, a black-clothed masked figure was left behind, unhurriedly following the black-clothed masked man in front.
Seeing this, Fan Chuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and had a bold idea.
The opportunity should not be missed, I saw Fan Chuan suddenly dodge and move, rushed out from under the long ladder, and gently and quietly followed behind the group of black-clothed masked people, and after only climbing a few steps, Fan Chuan suddenly made a move and covered the mouth of the last black-clothed masked man.
Immediately afterwards, Fan Chuan stuck the neck of the black-clothed masked man, and suddenly turned it hard, causing the black-clothed masked man to lose consciousness instantly and pass out.
The speed of all this movement was so fast that the black-clothed masked men walking in front were not aware at all, and they just climbed the long ladder up.
Fan Chuan then dragged the unconscious black-clothed masked man to the dark place under the long ladder, and then quickly took off the clothes of the black-clothed masked man, as well as the black cloth strips used to mask his face, and put them on his body.
Everything is ready, but there is only one thing that makes Fan Chuan a little dissatisfied, that is, his long white hair, which is so conspicuous in this darkness, but he can't care so much at the moment, I saw Fan Chuan tidy up the black clothes on his body again, took a deep breath, and then covered his face with a black cloth, turned around and stepped on the long ladder, and quickly caught up with the group of black-clothed masked people in front.
After Fan Chuan followed the team in time, the group of black-clothed masked men did not notice anything unusual, and still walked silently. Fan Chuan's mood became more and more nervous as the number of long staircase steps decreased.
Finally, a group of black-clothed masked people, including Fan Chuan, came to the entrance of the Shimen Cave.
Standing and waiting for a while, then he heard a shout from inside the Shimen Cave, and then the black-clothed masked man in front of him moved his steps again and entered the Shimen Cave in an orderly manner.
When Fan Chuan stepped into the Shimen Cave, he was immediately surprised, compared with the outside, it was simply a cave.
Not only is there no gray and dark of the underworld, but the lights are bright, and the burning candle is not the blue fire on both sides of the stone gate, but the normal yellowing firelight, which illuminates everything in the cliff wall clearly.
In the middle of the stone wall, a layer of suspended partitions was deliberately built, and the partitions were paved with gray sunken wood, and a lot of tables and chairs were placed on it for people in the underworld to drink and have fun.
In the main hall of the cave, there is a long boulder protrusion, like a natural carving, the height of a human half-body, located in the middle, which is full of wine and meat, as well as jagged white bones, as if used to make decorations, and on both sides of the long boulder, at this time surrounded by black-clad masked people, they are either toasting to each other, or chatting with each other, the atmosphere is so lively, and it seems to form a sharp contrast with the underworld outside.
Fan Chuan also noticed that among these black-clothed masked people, there were inevitably many women, who sometimes hugged and intertwined with men, sometimes half-sat on boulders, holding wine glasses and coquettishly, showing a coquettish appearance, and those men enjoyed this feeling very much, immersed in it.
In the lower corners of the cave, there are black-clad masked men standing with long soldiers, they do not smile, and they are even more unmoved by the extravagance and temptation in front of them, they just stand blindly, like a puppeteer, ignoring them.
Fan Chuan knew that those people were the guards of the underworld, and the men and women in black who were drinking and enjoying themselves on the long boulder table were probably invited by the uncrowned king.
It's just that after Fan Chuan glanced at it, he didn't realize that anyone would be the uncrowned king, or rather, the uncrowned king was not here at the moment.
And Fan Chuan also noticed that the long vermilion box brought by the two black-clothed masked men before was safely placed behind the boulder table, as if waiting for someone to open it.
The sudden change in the atmosphere caught Fan Chuan a little off guard.
But just when Fan Chuan didn't know why, the group of black-clothed masked people in front of him who "came together" surrounded the long raised stone table at this time, joining the extravagant atmosphere......
