Chapter 52: Nine Shades
Ding Mei chased after Gao Qingshu, and couldn't stand Gao Qingshu's dullness and couldn't help but ask: "Sir, is there any reason to do this?" Chen Xi obviously didn't have the slightest fault, those two people went to hunt down and kill Chen Xi, why is the Discipline Hall so unreasonable? Since the Discipline Hall is a fair and fair place, how can it be so unfair and unjust?"
Gao Qingshu sneered: "You are no longer a child, you should understand that there is a difference between strength and weakness in this world, so there is less fairness and justice." If you want the truth, you can challenge Chen Dingdang, and if you win him, you are the truth. ”
Ding Mei was speechless, and his angry face became whiter. Gao Qingshu's footsteps stopped, as if he couldn't bear to see Ding Mei so worried, and said after softening his tone: "You can rest assured, although Chen Dingdang is rude and domineering, but since he is the head of the Discipline Hall, he naturally has his roots. He doesn't do such a thing for no reason, sometimes...... Bad things are not necessarily bad, and often hide a good side. ”
Ding Mei said: "The bad is the bad, the good is the good, I don't understand what Mr. means." ”
Gao Qingshu didn't bother to say anything more, and walked to the Cuiwei Cottage. After walking a few steps, he seemed to feel something, and looked back at the Purple Qi Donglai Pavilion on the cliff and took a look. It was as if there was someone there, and there was something very complicated in Ding Mei's eyes, so complicated that she couldn't understand it.
Chen Xi was escorted into the waterfall by four purple-robed enforcers, and many people heard the news and came to watch along the way. Among them, including Guan Lie, Chen Xi saw anger from the expression on Guan Lie's face. Presumably, this genius boy didn't understand why such a simple thing changed its flavor when it arrived in the Discipline Hall.
Chen Xi also saw the Divine Division Baijue, standing not far away with a few black-clothed subordinates, looking at this side with a gloomy face. Obviously, that Baijue didn't look at Chen Xi unpleasantly, but the people in the Discipline Hall were unpleasant.
Many people know that there is a secret prison behind the waterfall, which is where the Discipline Hall holds errant disciples. But few people know that there is more than one prison behind the waterfall. The four enforcers stretched out a large bamboo umbrella and passed through the waterfall curtain, and the water smashed on the umbrella surface with a dull sound. There was no one to hold an umbrella for Chen Xi, so he was immediately soaked.
It was pitch black behind the waterfall, and Chen Xi got used to it, and now this cave is actually very wide, and there are more than ten meters under the horizontal, and it looks particularly humid inside. An enforcer blew the fire breaker and walked over and lit it on the stone wall, and a fiery snake crawled out. It turned out that a long ditch had been carved out of the stone wall, and there should have been something like fire oil in it, and after it was ignited, it spread all the way to the depths.
Walking along the secret passage, Chen Xixian walked in a few dozen meters and began to appear one after another, and there were voices coming out from time to time. He guessed it was all cells, but he didn't know why there were so many. He had never been here at all, and he had never heard his father talk about it as a child.
After walking for about a mile, the road gets narrower. And it's no longer a flat road, it's starting to slope down, so it's slippery. Chen Xi and the others walked for about ten minutes and then went down to a place that looked even wider, and then Chen Xi was surprised to see that there was actually a dark river here.
This is inside the mountain, and it is really strange that there is a river passing by. The law enforcers took Chen Xi along the dark river for dozens of meters and got on a small boat parked on the shore. Two people stood on the left and right with wood pulp, and the division of labor was clear and tacit. The boat traveled against the dark river, fast but steady. It can be seen that these law enforcers are all good at cultivation, and they are standing still on the boat.
There is such a big hollow in the mountain, and there is such a wide river, how many secrets of the Qingliang Mountain are, who can say clearly? A purple-robed enforcer stood at the bow of the boat carrying a lantern, and after the boat had traveled for about half an hour, he looked back at Chen Xi and said, "Now we are under the Confusion Forest, and the place where the boat will stop for a while is the Outer Sect." You were sentenced to be imprisoned on the first floor of the Nine Shades Dungeon, and the Throne didn't say how long he would keep you......"
Chen Xi nodded and didn't say anything. He didn't know Chen Dingdang yet, after all, he hadn't returned to the Inner Sect for ten years. Chen Dingdang was not considered his father's cronies at the beginning, otherwise he would not have lived until now. But who has survived until now, who knows if it is related to the tragedy when his family was almost wiped out?
Although these law enforcers did not speak much, they did not seem indifferent. Chen Xi faced enough things, so he knew how to see this person's feelings from a person's eyes, and he didn't see hostility and conspiracy in the eyes of these law enforcers. So he didn't understand, why did he do it since it wasn't intentionally aimed at him?
The boat went up the river and traveled for half an hour before stopping. The enforcer standing at the bow of the ship threw the rope and applied it precisely to the stake on the shore. He pulled the rope with one hand, and the boat approached. After getting off the boat, Chen Xi followed them all the way to the place where there was a light, and then Chen Xi carved the route deeply into his mind.
He's going to go to the Nine Shades Dungeon sooner or later, and it's not a bad idea to familiarize himself with the route first. Once here, two purple-robed enforcers could be seen guarding at intervals. They watched Chen Xi pass by with expressionless faces, and they didn't even bother to take a look.
Chen Xi was surprised that the huge structure under the Little Mantian Sect was actually not small compared to the inner sect and the outer sect combined. From the time he landed on the shore to Chen Xi's sight of a building, he walked a total of 2,999 steps, and there were a total of thirty-six purple-robed guards on this distance.
Then Chen Xi saw a wall, there was only one wall, and the wall couldn't see this end or that end, and he didn't know what such a wall wanted to close underground. Chen Xi paid attention all the way, and when he walked to the wall, he saw that there was only one door on the wall, so that when he looked left and right, he couldn't see the end, and there was only one door on the wall.
There were two old men in red robes standing at the door, because it was too dark, so they couldn't tell their specific age. When the four purple-robed enforcers saw the two red-robed old men, they immediately bent down and saluted, with an extremely respectful attitude. Chen Xi was taken aback when he looked over carefully, because the eyes of the two old men were the same, and there were no black eyeballs......
It's as if there's a stone ball in the eye socket. And the faces of the two old men were frighteningly white, as if they had been smeared with a thick layer of powder. After the enforcer saluted the red-robed old man, he took out a jade plaque and shook it, and one of the old men immediately opened the door.
When Chen Xi walked over to the door, he saw one of the old men sniffling, then grinning, revealing very yellow teeth: "A very tender person." ”
His voice is like an owl chirping in the night. Chen Xi felt a little cold, and when he passed by the old man and was about to follow the enforcer in, when he walked to the door, the wall suddenly moved, and a distorted human face stretched out from the wall, but it was as if his face was covered with a membrane, and it couldn't be broken. The membrane is very flexible, outlining the facial features of the face, as if it is roaring but not hearing a sound.
The face sticking out of the wall was only a few centimeters away from Chen Xi's face. Chen Xi even saw the angry and resentful expression on his face, and also saw that there should be no flesh and blood on that face. At this moment, one of the red-robed old men punched him with an expressionless face, and it hit that face, which immediately sunken down, and the wall immediately returned to normal.
Then the old man smiled and said in a hoarse voice, "Young man, welcome to the underworld." ”
......
......
After entering the door, Chen Xi felt as if he had arrived in another world, where the lights were as bright as day, and there were many braziers lit around, and the flames in the braziers were one meter high. The braziers on both sides of the road stretched out into the depths, and I don't know how many there were. But Chen Xi didn't feel the temperature at all when he passed by these braziers.
This fire is not hot. He subconsciously looked into one of the braziers, and now there were a lot of white bones piled up inside, and the flames were burning on the white bones. He could see it clearly, it was definitely human bones. Just as he leaned his face over to look at it, a hand suddenly stretched out from the brazier and almost grabbed Chen Xi's face.
There was no flesh on that hand, only bones. It seems that he is suffering from some kind of pain, and he keeps stretching and clenching. Chen Xi's face was a little pale, and he took a step back and left the brazier to follow the enforcer and continue to walk forward.
The enforcer who had spoken to Chen Xi on the boat before smiled, and seemed to be surprised: "Don't be afraid, these things are sealed by extremely powerful forces, and they can't get out." But you'd better be careful, get too close and no one can save you if something happens. ”
Chen Xi nodded, his heart full of questions. Why is there such a place under the Little Mantian Sect? What is that wall? Why is there a human face in the wall? There are so many braziers on both sides of the road, and there are actually human bones burning in them, who are these people?
Seeing that Chen Xi's face was a little strange, the enforcer said to Chen Xi as he walked: "Further forward is the Nine Shadows Dungeon, what you will see along the way is too unworthy of attention." In the Nine Secluded Dungeon, there are some things that are so terrible that you can never forget them once you see them. ”
"Remember. ”
The enforcer's tone seemed to be deliberately strengthened before he continued: "Don't look back when you cross this road, and don't leave the road, just keep going. If you leave the road or turn back, you may be taken into another world by some force that you can't resist, and you won't be able to come back. ”
This person seems to be very kind. Chen Xi memorized all his words, and then he heard someone singing behind him. It was a woman's voice, very light and beautiful. It was as if it was singing right behind his head, and the song was so beautiful that one couldn't help but want to stop and look back to see what kind of woman could sing such a beautiful song.
Just when Chen Xi felt that he couldn't resist the temptation, he thought of the reminder of the law enforcer just now. He was distracted and quickened his pace.
"That's something you can't get out of. ”
The enforcer sneered, "Something that can never get out." ”
Chen Xi didn't understand what he meant, but he always felt that someone was blowing gently in his ear. It seems that there is something like a woman's silk on her face, tickling. He took a deep breath and forced himself to focus all his attention on the road. After a little more walking, the song died away, and then there was a long sigh.
Chen Xi counted his steps, and after walking another 2,999 steps, the road came to an end, and he saw a huge space! It was a huge deep pit with a diameter of 1,000 meters, and it was an irregular circle. There is no end in sight when you look down, and it is pitch black as far as the eye can see.
Chen Xi raised his head and looked forward, completely shocked by what he saw!
In the middle of the sinkhole, there is a nine-story tower. It's just that the nine-story tower is upside down, with the spire facing down. From the edge of the sinkhole, there are four wooden bridges leading to the first floor of the upside-down nine-story tower, the most shocking thing is that the nine-story tower is hanging in the sinkhole, so hanging in the air, people can't help but worry that the next second the whole tower will fall into the endless sinkhole, except for the four wooden bridges, there is nothing else connected to the tower.
The enforcer who led the way let out a long breath, still unable to hide the fear on his face. He walked to the mouth of a wooden bridge, pointed there, and said, "This is the Nine Shadows Dungeon. ”
