Chapter 327: Second Floor

Xie Chen walked outside little by little, the speed was not particularly fast, but the light emitted from his body was almost able to help him illuminate the road ahead.

This made me feel a little less worried.

Earlier, he said that relying on these rays of light emitted on his body, he could enhance his immunity to weirdness.

Does this sentence mean that the ball of light has put all of its abilities into itself, and he is the embodiment of the ball of light?

Although the words are very simple, and they are also easy to understand.

But when you put it together, you think it's an incredible thing.

I've always been on the opposite side of-for-tat with her, how could I suddenly talk so well?

And he is willing to take out all his abilities, which is simply incredible.

I was not carried away by the joy, and I was worried about my current situation.

I'm afraid that this thing will do something in my body, or leave a trick behind.

When this is dangerous, if you are not on the opposite side, it is fine, but once you are on the opposite side, it will be a particularly disadvantageous thing for yourself.

I know this very well.

But now that things have happened, even if you are careful and regret it, it is useless, in your own hands this is more like a double-edged sword, it depends on how you want to use it.

After walking a little forward for such a long distance, he found that there was no big change, and his body was not out of control, so Xie Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

But even so, he hasn't left this area yet, even if the ball of light has disappeared, he doesn't have a fluke mentality.

The faint fluorescence emitted by some of them illuminates themselves, and they can barely see the road clearly.

This made Xie Chen quickly reach the area in front of him.

Although there were some obstacles in the middle, plus those currents, I don't know why they started to bubble out little by little, but fortunately, it didn't affect my pace.

As we continued to move forward, there was no further pause in between.

Xie Chen quickly came to the side of the aisle, and opened the previous gap with his hand little by little.

I don't know if it's because of my own misjudgment, or if there is an illusion, anyway, the gap in front of me seems to be much smaller than before.

If a person wants to go through, it will look particularly reluctant.

But I also thought that I used to kick from the outside to the inside, so even if this situation occurred, it was normal, and the collapse of the plank was to the inside, so now I want to drill out from the inside to the outside, and naturally there will be a lot of restrictions.

After Xie Chen broke these planks again, he also drilled out, but in the process, the light that was originally on his body slowly floated upwards little by little, and then turned into a faint fluorescence.

At first, I didn't notice it, and I even thought it was a firefly flying out from behind, but I knew that I didn't use a pocket watch, and it was normal for this situation to occur.

But as he drilled out of this hole, the fluorescence emitted seemed to be more and more, and at a glance it was a lot.

Xie Chen lowered his head and looked at it, only to find that the layer of light on his arm had disappeared, leaving only a faint part of his clothes.

Despite this, Xie Chen did not hesitate to grab it with his hand, trying to stop this layer of light from disappearing.

But this action was almost superfluous, and as he pressed down on his arm, the light that began to slowly dissipate around him not only did not appear to ease, but floated out a lot more.

Along with the dirt that wrapped around the walls, some of it was also glued.

Xie Chen only felt a little overwhelmed, the things that the ball of light imposed on him shouldn't be effective only in this area, right?

If that's the case, isn't it like a clown?

She had broken herself to pieces, but she had made such a small thing on herself that she couldn't last long......

"Forget it, it's something you can't keep anyway."

Xie Chen frowned, shook his hand, and did not continue to grasp the sleeves on his body.

Naturally, he didn't look back.

All he had to do now was to go back the way he came, and the dust walked backwards little by little, passing through the lights above his head before, still one after the other.

If you hadn't traveled this way before, you might have felt like you were still repeating the original cycle.

But there's one more thing I don't know.

Every time he took a step forward, a little more light appeared behind him, and the light that had dissipated in front of him before reappeared behind him.

Although these lights are not particularly noticeable, they are only taken out individually.

A large number of points of light swirled and converged together, like swarms of fireflies, following behind him.

And with each step he takes, there are more points of light behind him, and the number is still stacking up.

It's a pity that the brightness is not enough, so it doesn't attract my attention.

The points of light just kept floating behind them, and they disappeared in the dim light.

Although it feels a little strange, no one has seen this scene.

As Xie Chen's steps slowly slowed down, these points of light that followed behind drifted faster, until they merged into Xie Chen's back little by little.

The latter did not notice it in the slightest, and his body did not appear to be uncomfortable as usual.

I walked forward little by little, and then I came out of the exit of this tunnel.

Xie Chen returned to the cellar, where the damp and unpleasant smell still filled his nostrils.

I just want to get out of this place as soon as possible, after all, the smell is so bad that I will be disgusted to death if I continue to stay here.

The doubts of the four robots have been solved now, and the most important thing is to hurry over to Big Ben's side.

But in the middle, I used a lot of time to stop, but I don't know exactly how much time it took, and I had to go out to get the clock and compare it.

The dust of the pavilion climbed little by little, and there were only vines down here, and there was only one way to go back to the top.

It's not like an attic where you have a staircase to climb, you have to do everything yourself.

But despite his strength, the vines in front of him were very slippery.

It is also related to the humidity of the surrounding air, after all, the humidity is not small.

Moreover, this vine is still a living creature, it is not dried and withered, and in such humidity it looks more slippery, and if you want to grasp it with your hands, even if you wrap it around, you can't do it.

If you wrap it around twice, it will affect the speed of the climb when you climb up, and it will be more than worth the loss.

Xie Chen was directly distressed, he was not good at climbing, and he had to waste a lot of time to do it like this.

When he thought of time in his mind, Xie Chen's eyes immediately lit up.

If you rely on the time-stop effect of the pocket watch, then you may be able to climb out of this opening.

Thinking of such a possibility, Xie Chen immediately pressed the pocket watch in his hand, and now he just took it out of his pocket and then pressed it with his hand, which can be described as a whole go.

I already have a lot of experience in this set of actions.

At the same time as pressing the pocket watch, he had already turned the vines on it several arcs with his hands, just like a natural bend.

Because the chronological effect of the pocket watch focuses on the vines in front of you, the vines in front of you will not be deformed unless time continues to pass.

Its state will persist until it is frozen.

This is also the routine that I found out later under the ability to use pocket watches.

As long as you concentrate on the ability to use a pocket watch on a certain item, the ability of the pocket watch will be further amplified, and the restrictions will be much greater.

Xie Chen didn't waste time, but grabbed all his hands at the place where the vine turned, just a place to put his hands on.

Coupled with the fact that his hand slowly bent forward, it can be regarded as a perfect force, and the effect has obviously met his expectations perfectly.

Xie Chen grinned, and slowly used his lower foot to cover the bent place, so that his whole body could better exert his strength.

After a period of busy work, he finally began to climb up gradually.

And because the height is not much at all, it will soon finally reach the top.

Xie Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Leaning against the wooden box next to it, I finally had some spare time to look at the pocket watch.

Although it didn't take much time to climb up, it still took almost eight minutes.

Xie Chen breathed a sigh of relief, of course he was really tired, but there was no way.

But what surprised me was the way I used the pocket watch this time.

Although I have figured out how to use this method before, when I first used it, I still felt a little bottomless.

But since this is the case now, Xie Chen also has other thoughts, wanting to verify his conjecture.

"If it's a big deal, I'll try it again......"

If the conjecture fails, it's a matter of climbing again.

But if the final conjecture is successful, the result will be different.

Xie Chen made up his mind to press it with his hand, and the time around him froze, and he also focused all his attention on himself at this time.

I just pressed the function of backtracking, and what I want to try is to focus on my body and see if I can only remove the tiredness from my body, but not move the surrounding environment.

In short, it is to only look back on one's own physical state, and not to look back on the surrounding environment.

As his inner thoughts became deeper and deeper, his surroundings did not change with the passage of time.

A look of joy appeared on Xie Chen's face.

I didn't expect the conjecture in my heart to come true.

Although this is only a small change, it also represents the ability of pocket watches to cope with a wider range of situations.

This is very good news for me.

The physical condition of the whole person has been slightly restored under the function of retrospection, which also makes Xie Chen a lot easier.

After slowly getting up, Xie Chen opened the wooden box that was stuck next to him, and then slowly walked past it.

The road has become much wider, and naturally it is easier to walk.

After passing through the aisle lined with wooden boxes, Xie Chen finally returned to the place where the coffee table was placed before.

This time it has changed a lot, the smell that has been lingering for a long time has disappeared, and what remains is a good sandalwood fragrance.

The smell is quite refreshing.

There is not much physical exhaustion, the only thing left is mental exhaustion.

The tiredness of being tormented by the weirdness and the ball of light before, was greatly relieved in this sandalwood incense.

When I returned to the front of the store, the fresh air from outside poured in and burrowed into my nose.

Xie Chen's whole person was refreshed, and the woody fragrance had been lingering around him, and he was unprecedentedly energetic, which made the whole person extremely excited.

Xie Chen, who was originally standing at the door, frowned and stepped back slightly after stretching his waist.

When I got back to the shop, I looked to the side.

I saw that the staircase leading to the second floor looked very disgusting.

When he came out, he already caught a glimpse of this strange appearance out of the corner of his eye.

But the back foot had already gone forward, and it didn't stop.

Now that I was sure that I had really returned to the store, and the street outside had not changed in any way, I followed me back to the stairs inside.

Xie Chen frowned and looked at the staircase full of mold, even blackened, but not to the point of crawling with maggots.

I didn't smell anything strange in my nose, and the woody fragrance that had just begun to linger around my body didn't dissipate over time.

"Is this really what this broken staircase really looks like?"

Xie Chen stepped forward and muttered to himself.

No wonder I felt so slippery when I was walking before, it turned out that the soles of my shoes were stepping on such disgusting things.

The steps are basically covered with mold, and the only difference is that the steps are not dark.

When I looked up at the iron door at the top of the steps, the door that had been chained and locked was gone, and only two white doors remained.

And compared to the previous iron guys, these two pieces are just broken wood.

But if it's just these two white rotten planks, it's fine.

Xie Chen's eyes narrowed, and there were several small palm prints on the two almost rotten wooden boards.

The palm print was very dark, as if it were a child's hand wrapped around the steps below, and finally pressed against the planks on both sides of it.

Xie Chen's heart was a little hairy.

Originally, I didn't want to go up, and I didn't have this idea, but now this thing is like telling myself in the open that there is something on the second floor, and it depends on whether you dare to come up.

The door that had been locked before is now gone, like a notice.

This is the same as my own conjecture.

The only thing that can imprison that ball of light is to do it.

But just imprisoning the ball of light here has no intention of guarding it at all, and it really can't be justified.

When I faced the locked door on the stairs before, I already had a little expectation in my heart.

The result now is exactly the same as my conjecture, not even the slightest deviation.

Xie Chen slowly stepped on the first step with one foot, and the familiar slippery feeling made the soles of his feet a little numb.

If you don't see the black mold all over there, it's fine.

But the problem is that this thing has long been seen by himself, and even if he wants to forget it in his head, he really can't do it.

Xie Chen endured the nausea on the soles of his feet, walked up little by little, and soon passed through the two planks next to him.

The hallway is really disgusting, and the mold spots on it are still a little floating.

Xie Chen really didn't dare to use his hands to go up, so he kept walking in the center.

After passing the two planks in front of him, Xie Chen walked forward little by little, and came to the turn of the corridor, but he did not rush to the front.

It's very dark, but now it's daytime and there's no light.
