Chapter 16: The Evil Ancient Array
Gu Junyang didn't know how far he had run, and he didn't stop until he was so tired that he was out of breath. He slapped his face vigorously, but the words still lingered in his ears, like weeping.
"It's not true, it's not true, it must be that corpse has cast some kind of spell to make people who come close to it hallucinate, and I just fell in his way. Yes, it must be so!" Gu Junyang tried to comfort himself.
Wiping the sweat on his face, he found that all the way down, there was no end in sight except for plum trees and snow-capped mountains. In order to find the exit, the only way to go down the path is to go all the way. At this time, he was no longer in the mood to enjoy the scenery, and the strange moment just now reminded him that this place was not as peaceful as it seemed. After about half an hour, the scenery finally changed slightly. The front gradually began to become gray and hazy. Cautiously walked to the end of the road, shocked by everything in front of him: ahead was the evil magic circle drawn on the drawing!
Although Gu Junyang had been prepared for a long time, he knew that this magic circle was extraordinary, evil and strange. However, when you are immersed in the scene, you feel more quaint, solemn and shocking.
The huge circle is surrounded by icebergs, and the snow-capped mountains are steep and steep. It is conceivable that if you don't jump into the deep pool by yourself, there is no path to get here, and the surrounding area, the earth and the sky are even gray.
Gu Junyang looked at the magic circle, and visually measured that the floating black stone ball was about two meters in diameter, more than ten meters above the ground. The four stone balls are about twenty meters apart and form a square. Directly below the square are nine circular stone steps, about one meter high, and a large jet-black coffin is placed on the top stone steps. Because of the low terrain in which he was located, he could not see the situation on the coffin, only that he did not see the dagger depicted in the picture. The ninth-step stone steps were visibly splattered with patches of dried black blood. Between the stone balls and the stone balls, and between the stone balls and the ninth step, they are connected by eight thick black chains, and the chains are engraved with seal characters. Gu Junyang tried to climb up the altar, and as soon as his hand reached the first step, he touched an invisible wall, and the place he touched was glowing with circles of light, hindering him, and after his hand was removed, the circle of light disappeared immediately.
"Looks like there's another seal here. ”
Gu Junyang tried the various seal-breaking spells that Pei Qian had taught him before, but they had no effect, so he had no choice but to surround the magic circle and observe the black stone ball on it as he walked.
"Flying immortals out of the sky? What kind of material? Such a big stone can float!"
He looked up at the first stone ball, which was carved with dense patterns on the other side and a ferocious beast that looked like a cow and had only one eye, but with a snake-like tail. He continued to walk in the direction of the chains, and saw a second stone ball on which the beast was human-faced and monkey-like, with long hair, running like a beast. Then the third stone ball, the beast had a pair of curved horns on its head, a huge mouth, sharp teeth like saws, a pair of sharp claws, and a pair of fleshy wings on both sides. The last stone ball is carved with a beast resembling a tiger, with long hair, a human-like face, and a mouth with fangs like a wild boar. The last three stone balls, like the first one, are all covered with patterns on the other side.
"At this moment, it seems to be a few ancient evil beasts, I remember the time when I stole into the secret room when I was a child, it seems to have been mentioned in the relevant books, and I have to check it out when I go back. ”
After walking around the magic circle, Gu Junyang didn't find any other clues, but he could roughly recognize the words on the chain: Evil Demons Rampant World, Hundred Schools of Martyrdom, Siyi Sealing Souls, Yongzhen Lechuan.
"It seems that the things in the town here are really a peerless demon, and they need to send a hundred families to accompany the funeral. ”
After Gu Junyang finished speaking, he hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, looked at the coffin and said, "I'm sorry, I owe my words, you can take care of the old man inside." ”
Then he thought of something again, and said to himself, "Tut-tut, people pay attention to the round sky, but it's good here, and the whole thing is reversed like a mirror, and the bottom circle is above." Alas, the Array Eye Sarcophagus may be a medium to another world. Thinking of this, Gu Junyang immediately became interested, but after thinking about it, he wilted again, and he couldn't get in at all!
He returned to the origin of the circle, took out the map and compared, and sure enough, as depicted on the map, it was surrounded by snow-capped mountains, and there was no other exit. You can only return the same way first, and then discuss countermeasures with Pei Qian after finding a way to go out.
Gu Junyang thought about what this place had to do with his half-soul as he walked, and as he walked, he saw the red color from afar, and when he came to the fork in the road, he passed quickly, and he didn't dare to look to the right, for fear that he would be confused and produce some illusions.
"Great beauty, born so good-looking, she is really blind, how many thousands of women will be fascinated by this life, I can't stand it as a big man. It's hard to say, he keeps calling Qi Ye Qi Ye, the one named Qi Ye has been seduced if it's not good. ”
After returning to the edge of the cold pool, he checked the environment again, and found that not far from the woods in front of him, there was a blue light, and he walked to see that it was a blue circle of light that was exactly the same as when he dodged the soul devouring attack before.
"Another circle?"
Gu Junyang knew that this magic circle was not harmful to him, so he stood in directly, and sure enough, there was no reaction.
"No, if it goes on like this, I have no food, and sooner or later I have to accompany the great beauty. ”
Inadvertently, he took aim at the petals in the water, and looked closely at the plum petals that were slowly rotating in time, and put his hand on the water, and found that it was not the effect of the wind.
"It seems that this should not be a backwater, since it can lead here, it should be able to lead to the outside. ”
Gu Junyang decided to jump into the pool and try to find an exit. This time, he had previous experience, and stretched out his finger to test the water in the pool beforehand, but fortunately, the water temperature was much warmer than outside. Then he stretched, warmed up, and finally drank the wine with his neck up. Take a deep breath and plunge into the pool.
The cold pool was crystal clear, Gu Junyang silently felt the undercurrent in the water, made a little judgment, and swam towards the direction where there was a warm current. After swimming for a long distance, Gu Junyang gradually felt that he couldn't support it, and when he couldn't hold it anymore, he saw some light, so he hurriedly swam up. After poking his head out, Gu Junyang gasped greedily, fortunately there was a small cave here, which was enough for him to breathe and rest. After some repairs, he jumped into the water again, and this time he didn't swim far before he found a hole on the right side of the water that could be passed through, and the hole was bubbling outward, and the muddy water was bubbling outward.
"I hope this is an exit, or I'll be ruined." Gu Junyang thought about it and swam in. The water inside gets warmer and warmer, and the water becomes more and more turbid. It was an underwater tunnel, and the darkness was long, and when I finally insisted on swimming to the end, I saw a large bright light shining into the water in front of me.
"There is indeed an exit underwater!"
He swam forward and burst out of a turquoise lake.
"I'll go, heaven and hell will be in an instant, don't you want to be so exciting. Gu Junyang breathed the air to his heart's content, swam to the shore with the last bit of strength, and collapsed directly to the ground.
