Volume 1 The Flowers Bloom on the Other Shore Chapter 41 Who lit the candle?
"How long before we came?"
Lu Xingchen rubbed his brows helplessly when he heard this, feeling that his brain couldn't keep up with the current progress, in this dark cave, he couldn't tell the years, months and days, let alone a demonic beast.
Hearing this, the Sky Devouring Beast was silent, pulled its stubby fingers, and said slowly after a while: "It seems that it will be a long time earlier, he seems to have come before I went to sleep, and you came after I woke up." ”
When Lu Xingchen heard this, he had a number in his heart, and he had the virtue of swallowing the heavenly beast, and he would sleep for at least ten days and half a month, which was still short, and if he slept over, it would be very likely to be ten or eight years.
In this way, things don't make sense again, the time between him and Bai Yun when they met the three brothers is only about half a month, could it be that the third brother was fake at the beginning? But when did the other party steal the day in front of the eldest and second brother.
A series of questions formed in Lu Xingchen's mind, Bai Yun was usually extremely smart, and when he saw Lu Xingchen's tightly knit eyebrows, he had already guessed, and then pinched Lu Xingchen's palm, signaling that he didn't have to worry about it.
At this moment, the dilapidated wooden door that was originally half-hidden closed with a bang, and everyone was shocked and hurriedly pushed it, but the wooden door seemed to be locked from the outside, and it did not move at all.
The strength of the Sky Devouring Beast was so great that even he couldn't push it, and Lu Xingchen's face gradually sank.
"Looks like someone is trying to trap us here!"
Bai Yun listened to Lu Xingchen's words, her brows furrowed slightly, the second child was nowhere to be found, the boss and Qingying were uncertain about life and death on the stone bridge, and now even they were trapped in this weird thatched hut, all of this looked like a game specially set up for them, but what was the purpose of the other party?
"Don't think about it so much, there will always be a day when things will come to light, the main thing at the moment is to find a way to get out of this place, you guys retreat. ”
Hearing this, Bai Yun and the Sky Devouring Beast took two steps back according to Lu Xingchen's words.
And at this moment, the Heavenly Demon Fire climbed up Lu Xingchen's whole body, and the raging black flames seemed to burn the space around it to distort, and the fingertips moved slightly, and then the Heavenly Demon Fire split into dozens behind Lu Xingchen like a spiritual snake, and bombarded the dilapidated wooden door indiscriminately.
For a while, the smoke and dust were everywhere, blocking everyone's sight, but when the smoke and dust settled, including Lu Xingchen, his eyes almost fell to the ground.
"Damn, this door is so strong!"
The Sky Swallowing Beast walked to the wooden door in disbelief, clenched its fist and lightly hammered it for a moment, before slowly speaking: "You guys dodge, you have to come here." ”
Hearing this, even though Lu Xingchen was a little unconvinced in his heart, he still made a way for him with interest, now is not the time to quarrel, he has lived for so many years, and naturally knows when to do something.
The Sky Swallowing Beast didn't bombard like Lu Xingchen, of course he didn't, he just did a few warm-up movements first, and then his body slowly retreated, borrowing a run-up, and his body crashed directly into the wooden door.
Boom!
The next moment, Lu Xingchen only saw a black shadow flashing in front of him, and subconsciously shouted to Bai Yun: "Flash!"
Immediately, the Sky Swallowing Beast was directly bounced back to its original place by the force of the rebound, and its fat body smashed the tables and chairs in the middle of the hut to pieces.
"I'll go, hell!"
The Sky Swallowing Beast shook its head twice unconvinced, and once again pounced on the wooden door and punched and kicked it, and Lu Xingchen and Bai Yun immediately joined in when they saw this.
The attack of the three men was so fierce that the whole hut was trembling.
And at this moment, Lu Xingchen suddenly felt a trace of energy fluctuations coming from the wooden door under his hand, and then shouted to Bai Yun and the Sky Devouring Beast: "Don't waste your efforts, this wooden door should have been blessed by some special power, and with the strength of the three of us, it can be regarded as a waste." ”
After speaking, Lu Xingchen withdrew the Heavenly Demon Fire attached to his body, pulled over the stool on the side and sat down, thinking of other ways.
"The wooden door can't be opened, so it's useless for us to attack other places, such as the roof, the roof is thatched, and it shouldn't be very strong. ”
At this moment, Bai Yun suddenly proposed, she looked at the roof above her head and thought for a long time, and felt that it should be feasible to use the roof as a breakthrough.
Lu Xingchen smiled bitterly when he heard this, he didn't think about it, but the person who blessed the wooden door should not be a fool, the wooden door is blessed, and the thatched house will definitely be fully blessed.
However, before he could say his thoughts, he heard a bang, and the Sky Eater jumped up and smashed into the roof with a punch, but at the next moment, he naturally fell down without a doubt, smashing a shallow pit into the ground.
Lu Xingchen shrugged his shoulders at Bai Yun helplessly, meaning Look, this fool is testing by himself, your method won't work.
In desperation, the two of them sat down dejectedly.
"It can't go up there, so let's go down!"
After a long period of silence, the Sky Swallowing Beast raised its fat head, its eyes flashed, and it proposed to the two people in front of it.
“......”
“......”
However, before the two of them could express their words, the Sky Swallowing Beast, a doer, moved again, a pair of sharp claws quickly scraped into the ground, and it didn't take long for his fat body to sink.
There is a door!
Lu Xingchen was overjoyed when he saw this, but in the next second, the Sky Devouring Beast raised his body with a whimper and raised his fat palm to show the two of them.
I saw that his originally sharp nails were broken at the root, and some even began to spill blood.
Lu Xingchen rubbed his temples and sighed helplessly, now it is really a desperate situation where there is no way to heaven and no door to hell.
Although they don't need to eat or drink to survive now, they need to breathe fresh air to boost their body's metabolism, and if they are locked in such a confined space, even if they can endure loneliness, they can suffocate to death.
"What now?"
Bai Yun was really a little panicked at the moment, the confined space was the most frightening, and the burning candles placed around it also began to be declared exhausted, and the wax oil flowed on the ground and solidified into wax spots, rendering the atmosphere in the room even more weird.
With a pop, the candle flame was extinguished, and everyone suddenly fell into darkness, but fortunately, the darkness was not much different from the previous one in the cave, but it was not unacceptable.
For a while, the two of them and one beast just sat like this, staring at each other, and there was nothing they could do about this wooden door.
And just when everyone was very depressed, there was a sudden creak from the wooden door.
"Someone's coming!"
Lu Xingchen let out a low sigh, clasped his hands together, ready to take down the person in front of him at any time.
However, when they saw the two familiar figures, they were stunned, and the people who came were Qingying and the boss above the stone bridge.
Qingying and the two of them were overjoyed when they saw Lu Xingchen, and they were about to step forward, but they heard the two people and a beast in front of them shouting in unison: "Don't close the door!"
This sudden voice directly frightened Qingying and the boss, and the wooden door in his hand slammed shut again.
"Damn!"
"Finish the calf!"
“......”
Seeing this, everyone was speechless again, and the gaze staring at the two became a little unkind, but Qingying didn't know what was going on, scratched his head and said with a simple face: "What door?" ”
Lu Xingchen didn't bother to pay attention to him when he heard this, and slowly pinned his head to the side, and Qingying had to come up facelessly and chattered in front of Lu Xingchen about their experience along the way.
Lu Xingchen's brows furrowed more and more, and finally he couldn't help it, kicked Qingying's ass, kicked him aside, and said viciously: "If you dare to say a word in front of me again, believe it or not, I will hang you up and beat you!"
Qingying was stunned when he heard this, and then he saw that Lu Xingchen was angry, smiled wryly, and hurriedly walked behind Bai Yun and was silent.
"This wooden door should only be opened from the outside, by the way, boss, you can see if it is the body of your third brother. ”
The boss was grinning at Qingying's head, but when he heard Lu Xingchen's words, his body shook suddenly, and he couldn't believe his ears, so he hurriedly dug it out a few times and asked Lu Xingchen, "Boss Lu, what are you talking about?"
Lu Xingchen knew what he meant, got up and walked to him, patted the other party's shoulder gently, and said slowly: "Mourning is smooth." ”
When the boss heard this, he seemed to be hit by five thunderbolts, and strode to the side of the dead corpse to take a closer look, and his body suddenly twitched.
Seeing this, everyone wanted to step forward to be safe, but they were stopped by Lu Xingchen, because of the dim light in the room, the boss did not notice that there was still a corpse lying on the ground, and at this time, it was his third brother who had disappeared for a long time.
"Let him be alone for a while, let's find a way to get there, there are traces of people living here, and theoretically there should be a way to the outside world. ”
After speaking, Lu Xingchen stopped paying attention to everyone, and his spiritual sense was released and looked at the surrounding environment.
Previously, I was in too much of a hurry to observe the placement in the room carefully, but now it seems that in addition to the tables and chairs that were crushed by the Sky Swallowing Beast, there is also a solid wood cabinet in an inconspicuous corner.
Seeing this, Lu Xingchen stepped forward slowly, and was about to reach out to touch the handle of the cabinet, but his eyes were slightly dark.
The wooden cabinet was covered with dust, as if no one had lived in it for a long time, but except for this corner of the wooden cabinet, the rest of the place was cleaned, and most importantly, who lit the candles!
Unwilling to be the third child, inferring from the corpse spot on his neck, it should be dead for a long time, not the third child, who would it be?
The place where the second child was harmed by the fake third child is not a short distance from here, whether it is from above or below the stone bridge, it is impossible to come here one step ahead of everyone, and besides, the realm of the second child is only the realm of the Great Spirit Master, and it is completely impossible to get here, even if it is Bai Yun and the boss who are present, it is because of himself and Qingying that he can get here.
So why exactly?
One question after another in Lu Xingchen's mind followed, and he turned to face everyone after a while, and said abruptly.
"Who lit the candle?"
