Chapter Twenty-Four: Dugu Yanran
At this moment, he was extremely weak, and he was moving forward completely with a will to survive.
There was no light in the depths of the huge forest, for it was all obscured by the inky black leaves, and it was still quiet, and even if the breeze blew, the leaves did not make any sound.
Darkness is the most frightening because it is full of unknowns and confusion.
At this time, the creaking sound under his feet sounded, as if he had stepped on something, due to the pitch black, Huang Cong simply collapsed on the ground, because the last trace of strength in his body was not left, he reached out and touched the creaky thing at his feet, two small holes, one big hole, except for the human head, I am afraid there is nothing similar to this.
His eyes grew heavier and heavier, and there was a faint feeling of uneasiness in his heart, not so much an uneasy feeling as a shock from his heart, and he felt that something was calling to him, and that call made his soul vibrate.
As time passed, that call became stronger and stronger, and Huang Cong's originally dim eyes rejuvenated.
"Who is such a great cultivator, just the sound of guò can control a person's willpower," at this time, he had clearly felt that this call carried a huge vitality here, making the originally languishing body stand up again, and that call came from the front.
His feet walked forward uncontrollably, and although he couldn't see anything, he could feel that the ground was full of rotten bones, and it was a long time, because he could hear the sound of shattering with every step.
The further he went, the more frightened Huang Cong became, there were too many corpses on the ground, almost one by one, and he didn't know where to get his feet, not to mention that there was no light at all, so he subconsciously bowed to the countless corpses on the ground, and then walked with the source of the sound.
If it weren't for this calling voice, I'm afraid that Huang Cong would have died slowly in the same place just now, but now he has advanced like a walking corpse for an hour, although it is a little uncontrollable, but after all, it is where his body is.
"What kind of secret is there in this forest that will cause this scene?" Huang Cong's brain could still think, carefully looking at his situation, thinking of stopping and relying on his willpower to hold on, but once he didn't hear the sound, his body would instantly fail, because of the repeated battles, he had completely squeezed all the yuan power in his body, and if he couldn't replenish it, it would be completely wasted.
After a fierce struggle in his heart, he continued to move forward.
After a long time of incense, a glimmer of light came through, and following the light, an ancient palace appeared in front of me, and beside the palace there were some huge stones, and the light was emitted by this kind of stone.
The call is becoming more and more real at this time, it is from this ancient palace, Huang Cong looked at the gate of the palace, simple and vicissitudes, the pattern carved from it gives people a feeling of a very old age, although the wooden door is not gorgeous, but it exudes a huge coercion, which makes people unable to raise their heads.
At this time, the voice of the call became more urgent, as if it was wrapped in supreme power, Huang Cong's originally suppressed feelings suddenly felt a burst of relief, although the physical and mental coercion disappeared, but the physical force was still there, and he had to lower his head and push open the door.
With a "squeak", the door was slammed, and instead of the darkness it imagined, the furnishings inside could be seen clearly, because the walls inside were inlaid with the kind of glowing stones outside.
Huang Cong had an ominous premonition, and he didn't take that step for a long time, and the call became stronger and stronger at this moment, even affecting his mind, he shook his head and looked at the lobby, a very ordinary big mahogany table, without too much furnishings.
Finally, he stepped in, and a long-ago aura instantly permeated, and he almost fainted from lack of oxygen, and was once again awakened by this call.
Huang Cong trembled at this time, and clearly felt that the call came from the box on the mahogany table.
At this time, when he got closer, he found that in addition to the sound of the call coming from the inside of this box, there was also a faint light wrapped on the outside, and there was a yellow paper symbol on the box, I don't know what was written, because he didn't know this ancient text.
What was inside the box, Huang Cong couldn't visually detect, but he could feel that it must be a very terrifying existence, because the closer he got to this mahogany table, the more he could feel a vast coercion, hundreds of times stronger than the door just now.
At this moment, the call disappeared, and a voice came out clearly: "Youth, I saved you, in return, you only need to help me uncover the seal on the box." ”
The words that suddenly came out of the box startled Huang Cong, and he hurriedly stayed away from the mahogany table, but after carefully recalling it, he found that the sound was like a heavenly sound, echoing in the lobby, not as crisp as Huang Li, but it had a sacred charm, which made people have endless aftertaste.
However, after experiencing so many things, Huang Cong's simple heart has gradually changed his views on this world, especially when he enters the forbidden land that people often say, he naturally does not think about a good place, maybe there is a demon locked in this box.
Huang Cong took a few steps back, farther away from the mahogany table, and said, "You said you saved me, how did you save me?"
The female voice in the box came again: "Do you think that with your body, you can live past the time of a stick of incense? Ridiculous, if I hadn't supported you with my mind, I'm afraid you would have turned into a stepping stone for others in the future, just like those corpses and bones on the ground!"
After the female voice finished speaking, she added: "If you help me unseal it, I will completely repair your body, and at this moment you are only shrouded by my thoughts, so you are safe." ”
Huang Cong thought about it, this is indeed the case, but that kind of uneasiness has always been in his heart, he does not want to become a pawn of others again, and he must not be careless until the unknown factors are determined.
"Who are you, and why are you locked up in this box by others?" Huang Cong looked defensive.
After finishing speaking, he could clearly feel that the woman in the box was angry, the terrifying aura became more and more violent, and the supreme majesty pressed his originally broken body and oozing traces of blood.
After a long time, the female voice came again, it seemed to be calmer at this time, Huang Cong was not so uncomfortable, only to hear her say: "I was plotted by a slut, I originally regarded her as a sister, but I didn't expect her to really ignore our feelings for that supreme exercise, and a martial god fought with me, and under guard, I suffered a big loss, and was sealed by her into this dark forest." ”
After hearing this, Huang Cong felt a chill behind him, and secretly took a breath, although he didn't know what kind of realm that woman was, but he also sealed the woman in front of him into this box together with a martial god-level talent, it seems that this woman is definitely a character who has a lot of skills, after all, the martial god is a legendary person who ascended to heaven.
Seeing that Huang Cong still had a stunned expression and did nothing, the woman in the box immediately put away her thoughts, Huang Cong instantly collapsed to the ground, and once again felt the breath of death, and the vitality of all parts of her body was rapidly dissipating.
At this moment, the woman's thoughts were enveloped again, and Huang Cong climbed up from the ghost gate again, although there was no expression on his face, but he had already scolded his mother in his heart, he shouldn't play like this.
The woman laughed again at this time, completely different from the temperament just now, Huang Cong rolled her eyes, and the woman said: " If you had bargained for me so much before, there would have been no zài for a long time, today this girl is in a good mood, I haven't been so happy for a long time, I don't know how many years no one has come here, I remember the last time someone came here, I was swallowed by the undead beast for the first time, only a pair of white bones remained, boy, you are lucky, now at this time period, the undead beast is breastfeeding, so you can walk in unharmed. ”
Huang Cong pursed his mouth, seemed to be very dissatisfied with the woman's mouthful of a boy, and his voice was not much louder than himself, and asked, "How long did you say you have been sealed in this box?"
Feeling that the woman was a little dazed, she said for a long time: "I don't know how long it has been, a hundred years, five hundred years, maybe a thousand years, maybe? It's been too long, I can't remember clearly." ”
Huang Cong's mouth instantly turned into an O-shape, and he originally wanted to see if he could see the woman's face through the gap in the box, but this thought disappeared in an instant at this moment, maybe the idea of disrespecting the old man could be used as a reason.
The woman seemed to see some little Jiujiu in his heart, and said with a smile: "This girl is naturally beautiful, young and beautiful, even if it is thousands of years later, her appearance will not change, if you can let me out, I will teach you two tricks, how to save your life, it can be seen that you should have come here in desperation." ”
Huang Cong shook his head, not that he didn't want to believe the words of the woman in the box, because the world's deception is not something that can be figured out by the human heart, and the bloody battle of life and death that he has just experienced is caused by a woman, and the name Nangong Meng may not be forgotten for the rest of his life, and he clearly remembers that her eyes for help made her make up her mind, but in the end, not only did she not be grateful, but she also fell into the stone, thinking of this, Huang Cong laughed a few more times.
"What, I'm afraid I'll kill you if I come out?" the woman added.
"Yes, my life is not easy to come by, many people want to take it, but I can't die, if you really want to save me, help me heal the injury of this body first, and even if you change your attention, I have a certain ability to protect myself. ”
The woman smiled and threw out three words directly: "You can't do it"
As a man, the last thing he wants to hear is a woman saying no to herself, although Huang Cong already knew that the woman in the box was an old woman who had lived for a long time, but he still felt a little embarrassed.
"Why, I said you can't, you still don't believe it, if it's in my heyday, even if you blink your eyes, you will be wiped out, don't worry I won't kill you, as long as you can help me break the seal, I will only beat you up at most after I come out." The woman laughed as clearly as a bell.
Huang Cong had a black line on his head and asked, "So you just promised to help me heal this injury first?"
"Well, it's hard to meet you as a coward, and it's so fun, I won't let you die so quickly, not to mention that I am kind in my heart and I won't die without help. ”
After speaking, Huang Cong was embarrassed and didn't know how to take the following, and his head was hot and asked, "Dare to ask Fang's name?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt that the words were inappropriate, but the woman didn't have much of a response, and said, "Look at the four big characters on the box yourself, this is hieroglyphs, see what they are?"
Huang Cong looked at it carefully, and after a long time, he said, "Yanran smiled?"
"Well, that's right, my name is Dugu Yanran. ”
