Chapter 031: Ancestral Statue, Faceless Demon
Lu Ping'an's heart was filled with too many questions, and before he knew it, he had already walked to the waterfall curtain.
On the rock wall that the girl had just banged hard, he found a hidden mechanism that, if he pressed it, should be able to separate the waterfall.
Afraid of being discovered by the other party, Lu Ping'an didn't dare to press the mechanism, but used the aura wall to resist the flow of water and forced in.
"Awesome, I see. ”
After some research, Lu Ping'an found that there were two drainage channels at the top of the original cave entrance, and the mechanism arranged in the rock wall could temporarily divert the water from the waterfall into these two canals, thus opening the water curtain door.
I have to say that the person who designed this mechanism is really a skilled craftsman.
"How offended, Xiaosheng took his leave. ”
After understanding the principle of the mechanism, Lu Ping'an's curiosity was finally satisfied, and he turned around and bowed to the cave, preparing to leave quietly.
He is a child of a big family, and he has read the books of sages, so naturally he will not do anything to trespass on people's houses, let alone that the other party is still a woman.
"Ahh
Half of Lu Ping'an's body had just squeezed into the waterfall curtain, when suddenly, a cry for help came from the depths of the cave behind him.
Lu Ping'an was startled, he thought he had been discovered, and in his panic, he forgot to maintain the aura wall, and as a result, he was swept down by the water from a height of five or six zhang, and was slapped to the bottom of the pool.
Fortunately, he was a cultivator with strong muscles and physique, if he were an ordinary person, it is estimated that he would have been smashed unconscious at this time, and then drowned alive.
"Ahem...... Ahem...... No, it doesn't seem to be because of me. ”
Lu Ping'an got up from under the waterhole in embarrassment, and subconsciously looked back, who knew that there was no shadow of anyone as far as his eyes could see, and the girl's cries for help were still coming.
"Hehe, no wonder, I'll just say, how can an ordinary person live in Daxu Mountain......"
Lu Ping'an's thoughts turned sharply, and he quickly summed up a reasonable conjecture in his mind, that is, the woman who claimed to live here was not without cultivation.
She was pretending to let the victim enter the water curtain hole unsuspectingly, so that she could sneak up on the attack.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, took out the Wind Thunder Sword from the storage bag, and flew into the cave.
Although the life or death of that little girl has nothing to do with him, he really can't let Lu Ping'an see death and not save him.
After entering the cave, the first section of the road was very narrow, and Lu Ping'an had to crouch forward, but it didn't take long for the surroundings to suddenly open up.
"I'm rubbing, this...... What kind of place is this?" Seeing the scene in front of him, Lu Ping'an was so shocked that he was almost speechless.
At the end of the cave was an extremely open space, the size of a three-way courtyard, and the highest part of the cave roof was nearly four feet above the ground.
Sunlight shines through two cracks in the mountain above, illuminating everything inside the cave.
At this time, about fifty steps in front of Lu Ping'an, there stood a majestic and tall boulder statue.
According to the posture and characteristics, it can be seen that this is a full-body statue of an ancestor.
The ancestor is also known as the ancestor of the ancient Xuanyuan Emperor, the concubine of the ancient Xuanyuan Emperor, and it is said that she invented silkworm breeding, and is the goddess worshiped the most by the people of the Eastern Continent.
What puzzled Lu Ping'an was that although the statue of the ancestor in the cave was exquisitely carved and superb, it had no facial features.
Or that the part of the facial features is not yet complete.
Underneath the statue, the well-dressed young girl stood upright, as if she had been hit by a spell of immobilization and could not move.
"Don't shout! Honestly, if you can't get the whole dough off later, I'll make you worse than dead!"
Beside the immobilized young girl, the older girl from earlier had a completely different appearance.
What made Lu Ping'an feel palpitations was that this guy's face was the same as the statue of the ancestor, with no facial features!
"Demon, Hugh is harmful!"
Seeing that the girl's pretty face was about to be cut by the faceless demon with a knife, Lu Ping'an hurriedly broke off.
"Who!"
Hearing Lu Ping'an's shout, the movement of the faceless man's hand froze, and as soon as he raised his head, he was knocked away by a slash with a wind attribute spell, and his body was broken into several pieces in the air.
"Are you okay, girl?"
After confirming that the Faceling had been killed, Lu Ping'an lifted the Wind Thunder Sword and trotted to the young girl's side.
"Ah, is there really anyone?" The girl, who had been desperate for a long time, didn't expect that someone would really come to save her, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Hey, how did you hear my cry for help?"
"If you go out and talk about these words, you tell me first, what trick did you hit. Lu Ping'an interrupted anxiously.
Although the Facelings had been killed by him, the cave was full of strange things, and it was really not good to stay for long.
In addition, this little girl is too heartless, she has just escaped from danger and has the heart to ask this and that, and I don't know if she has a good psychological quality or has been scared out of the problem.
"I don't know about that. The girl thought for a moment and replied, "She just asked me to look at the statue, but I looked at it for a while, and when I reacted, my body couldn't move." ”
"Statues?"
Lu Ping'an subconsciously raised his head, and suddenly, his brain buzzed, and then, a strong feeling of dizziness surged, almost making him faint.
"Break it for me!"
Lu Ping'an immediately realized that this was an illusion attack, and immediately loosened his fingers, causing the Wind and Thunder Sword to fall straight down, and then grabbed the blade with his hand, relying on the painful stimulation to wake up.
"Whew...... It's dangerous!" Lu Ping'an exhaled and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with palpitations.
Illusion is an advanced technique that uses the five senses as the target of attack, which can cause the opponent to fall into a state of mental trance, produce various hallucinations, and even control the opponent's actions and even thoughts.
Generally speaking, a cultivator must reach the Yuan Martial Realm and generate divine consciousness before he can perform illusions. The stronger the divine sense, the more powerful the illusion will be.
Of course, in addition to human beings, some spirit beasts and evil things can also charm people's minds, Lu Ping'an estimates that the one he met with this strange girl should belong to the latter.
"I had no choice but to destroy this statue. ”
Lu Ping'an's cultivation is still shallow, and he has no research on illusions, and after thinking about it, he decided to use the simplest and rude method.
"Hey, what's your name? Let me see your face. Taking advantage of Lu Ping'an's wound bandage, the young girl chattered again, "You are so good, is it Wanqiu......
As she spoke, the girl suddenly stopped.
She was horrified to find that the fragmentary corpses of the Facelings in the distance, as if pulled by an invisible force, began to slowly gather in one place, and in the blink of an eye, its body actually healed and regenerated!
