Chapter 562: Puppet
Tian Youfang is an old horse here.
With him leading the way, the process of stepping into this Gu God Cave was very smooth.
"There should be two chambers in this cave.
"The first place is where the Gu King is, and I escaped from the Di Clan after stealing this Gu King back then.
"This is it."
Tian Youfang said as he led the way, took a step forward, and his eyes suddenly opened.
A rather strange cavern is revealed.
In the middle of this cave is a high platform.
On the table is an open box.
However, the box was already empty, and the surrounding ground was full of potholes, which were both complex and seemed to contain some kind of law.
田有方 says:
"Wherever there is a Gu King, there will inevitably be ten thousand Gu around.
"However, as soon as the Gu King is gone, these Gu worms who serve the Gu King will die."
When he said this, he pointed to the pitted places on the ground and said:
"This is the Gu bed of Gu worms, it's just that the Gu bed is still there, and the Gu King has not returned, so they have no reason to exist."
Jiang Ran smiled:
"The methods of the Di clan are indeed somewhat interesting."
"Let the honorable see the smile."
Tian Youfang smiled, pointed to another hole in this cave and said:
"This is the entrance to the second level of the cavern.
"It's just that when I just set foot here, the natal Gu in my body was desperately warning.
"I don't dare to cross the thunder pool by half a step.
"Now that you have your dignity by your side, you can find out if you want to come."
"It's just to find out and lead the way."
Jiang Ran waved his hand gently.
Tian Youyi took the lead, stepped over the Gu bed on the ground, came to the entrance of the second layer of the cave, and went deep into it.
Jiang Ran and Tang Huayi followed.
It's much darker and cramped than before.
Jiang Ran's fire flickered and flickered, and the figures of the three people were also strange.
Tang Huayi hugged his arms and shrunk his neck:
"Why does it seem a little colder here?"
"It's not like it's cold."
Tian Youfang said softly:
"Moreover, at this moment, the natal Gu in my body is almost wailing...... The road ahead is unpredictable, please be careful. ”
"Well, don't worry."
Jiang Ran raised his eyes, and his five senses were brought into play, but he didn't notice anything unusual.
At this moment, Tian Youfang's figure happened to enter a turning point.
Jiang Ran and Tang Huayi were one step away from him, but they didn't want to, and when they stepped out, they had already disappeared from Tian Youfang.
"What about people?"
Tang Huayi's face changed:
"Brother-in-law, you are deaf and clear-sighted, have you ever heard the sound of the mechanism running?"
"Not a ...... of the Agency"
Jiang Ran exhaled lightly:
"It's a formation."
He stared at a few stalactites in the cave, and after groaning slightly, he turned his fingers and took a stone, and with a flick of his fingers, he heard a snapping sound.
The scene around him changed suddenly.
It's still a road, but the direction changes instantly.
"This ......"
Tang Huayi was stunned:
"Brother-in-law, I can understand the mystery of the formation, but ...... According to the way Fang Cai looked, if we continued to move forward, we were afraid that we would hit the mountain wall, right?
"No matter how subtle and profound the formation is, it is impossible to change the terrain, right?"
"So, this is the second formation in the formation."
Jiang Ran touched Tang Huayi's head:
In other words, there are two paths.
"The first one is the one we saw at the beginning, and the second one is the one after I broke the first formation.
"After this heavy formation, whether there is another path is unknown.
"Whether this Tian Youfang just turned out of the formation and stepped into this road, or took other paths, it is even more unpredictable."
“…… That's easy, you just have to break all the formations. ”
"It's not that easy."
Jiang Ran was helpless for a while:
"Although I have learned the formation method from the Jingtan monk for a few days, this mystery and profundity are not under the martial arts.
"In this short period of time, I have only learned a few superficial things, and I am far from proficient.
"The formation here is mysterious, even if I am afraid that the Jingtan monks will come in person, it will be difficult to crack all of them......"
"So what do we do?"
Tang Huayi winked at Jiang Ran.
"If you come here, you will be safe, no matter how subtle this formation is, it will not be possible to send us out of this Gu God Cave.
"The left and right are in this hole, so it's better to explore one road after another."
As he spoke, he took Tang Huayi's hand and walked towards the newly emerged path.
Tang Huayi nodded, but he still couldn't help but say:
"Who the hell did you say this person was just now?"
"This man......"
Jiang Ran was silent for a moment and shook his head slightly:
"I don't dare to say it now...... But no matter who he is, he will never be Tian Youfang. ”
Wu Di once said that when he was separated from Tian Youfang, he gave the Gu puppet to Tian Youfang.
The Gu puppet has a Gu King hidden in its body.
It's a big killer.
Now that he has returned to the Di clan and wants to save Wu Di, Tian Youfang will not use this big killing weapon.
Even if you have a chance in mind, you should keep the Gu King by your side in case you need it.
This is one of them......
Second, if he was really Tian Youfang, he would not come to the Gu God Cave even though he knew what Jiang Ran was going to do.
What kind of ability Jiang Ran has, Tian Youfang knows very well.
There are not many of them here, and there are many of them less, he doesn't go outside to call Tian Miaomiao, Jin Ge and others away, what kind of mess do you come here to fill in?
And, of course, there is a third point.
Tian Miaomiao's chaos has gradually subsided.
It can be seen that it has retreated.
But Jin Ge said that they used themselves as bait on this trip, so as to make it convenient for Tian Youfang to save people.
In other words, the core key lies in Tian Youfang.
He didn't say to go, how could they go?
But if he took Tian Miaomiao and them away, how could he appear in the Gu God Cave?
Yes, when Jiang Ran and Tang Huayi saw Tian Youfang for the first time, they already knew that there was something wrong with this person's identity.
But neither of them debunked.
There is just a lack of someone to lead the way, so that's it.
The light of the fire fold is limited, and when the fire is extinguished, it suddenly disappears.
Jiang Ran is very well prepared, who doesn't carry ten or eight fire folds on his body in case of emergency?
Immediately threw away the old one and took out a new one.
The path of this cave was very long, and Jiang Ran took Tang Huayi and walked for a while, but he didn't see any changes.
After walking like this for about a stick of incense, Tang Huayi suddenly let out a 'huh'.
Gently tugging Jiang Ran's hand, he squatted down and picked up something from the ground.
waved his hand at Jiang Ran:
"Brother-in-law, don't go, we're going around in circles."
What she was holding in her hand was the fire fold thrown by Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran said without the slightest surprise:
"I expected it, let's keep going......"
"What did you expect?"
"The formations in the Gu God Cave are very large, complex, and exquisite.
"It won't be only the previous one, otherwise, the stone on our side has already broken the formation.
"However, the end result is that the formation is still there.
It shows that there are other places that implicate the array...... On this road, there will be formation obstacles, which is a matter of course.
"Well, now it can be said that this formation is assembled, one ring after another.
But it also touched the whole body.
"I guess even if we turn back the way we started, it will be difficult to find the fork in the road before.
"And when I put this formation ...... Well, here it is. ”
Jiang Ran pulled Tang Huayi and said, if he was intentional, he seemed to take a step out unintentionally.
After this step fell, Tang Huayi found that Jiang Ran seemed to have blended into the surrounding stones, and only half of his hand was still holding his hand, stretching out of the stone.
Immediately after he was dragged by Jiang Ran, another cave suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, the Bagua...... I've spent all my life learning, and no matter how I look at it, it's a way out. As a result, the way out turned out to be a stone...... Isn't it interesting, you say? ”
Jiang Ran squeezed his eyes at Tang Huayi:
"This is an illusionary array, what is seen is not true, the truth and the false intersect with the real and the false, making it difficult for people to see the truth.
"But as long as you are firm in what you think in your heart, you can explore the falsehood."
"The investigation is to hit headlong?"
Tang Huayi subconsciously covered his head.
"Sometimes you need this kind of determination not to hit the south wall and not look back, otherwise, you can only follow the path given by the people who set up the formation, and blindly go around in circles here."
Jiang Ran said softly:
"This formation can't be broken yet, otherwise, it will be really difficult for us to find a way out.
"Mountains and rivers are changing, wind and clouds are changing, and flowing water is changing.
"One change follows another, if it was originally a mountain and a river, the first time I broke the formation, it would have become a storm.
"Now we are all in the midst of the storm, but if it is still broken, it will turn into water.
"At that time, those who know the wind and clouds will not be of benefit to the flowing water.
"What you know becomes an obstacle, a barrier to your eyes and mine, and we don't see the truth."
Tang Huayi's brain is buzzing:
"Okay, okay, brother-in-law, you're amazing, you're a formation master, don't tell me, where are we now?"
"Gu God Cave, ......"
Jiang Ran smiled helplessly.
"What about the fake field?"
"Probably so."
"This guy is interesting...... Pretending to be Tian Youfang, lead us into the depths of this Gu God Cave.
"What do you want to do?"
The answer may lie ahead...... Of course, it could also be in the back. ”
Jiang Ran smiled:
"In the end, let's move forward first."
The two of them continued to walk forward, and as they walked, Tang Huayi muttered in a low voice:
"Brother-in-law, do you know that you are very underwhelmed by talking like this."
"Huh? Can you beat me? ”
"Of course, you can't beat it."
"So let's put away your dangerous thoughts."
"But I can join forces with my sister and make you lose your armor!!"
“?”
Jiang Ran suddenly felt as if something was wrong with this topic all of a sudden.
sighed helplessly, and reached out to poke her eyebrows:
"Little girl, day by day, quietly say some tiger and wolf words."
"Where's the tiger and wolf word? Brother-in-law, where did you think of going? ”
Tang Huayi said with a smile:
"I mean, my sister and I will join forces to beat you, and make sure to hit you all over the ground to find teeth!
"How do you ...... What kind of tiger and wolf words are these? Or is there something else on your mind?
"Oh, brother-in-law, this can't be done, I'm your sister-in-law!"
Jiang Ran couldn't cry or laugh, in this Gu God Cave, he dared to talk nonsense like this.
Should I say that she is worthy of being a demon saint?
As he spoke, his eyes suddenly opened.
What appeared in front of him was a boxy cave.
In the place where the Gu King was stored before, there were already many traces of human depictions.
Now in this cavern, it is even more obvious.
The surrounding walls are straight, and the bluestones are neatly divided and built up.
The ground is flat, and there are eight platforms on the left and right sides.
Standing on the platform are stone carvings.
These stone carvings are all in the form of people, each holding a piccolo, which is obviously the shape of the people of the Di tribe.
Tang Huayi didn't care about teasing Jiang Ran, his eyes looked at it, and his brows frowned slightly:
"It's a little weird...... As far as statues go, they seem a little too small. ”
Statues, especially those placed in such places, should naturally be larger to deter visitors.
But these statues in front of me are all life-size.
Jiang Ran thought for a moment and led Tang Huayi forward.
But I didn't want to, as soon as I took a step, I heard a click.
The sound didn't come from underfoot, but from a nearby statue.
A crack appeared, and it spread all over the body at a very fast speed.
It's like a bugle call...... After the cracks on the statue's body appeared, the other seven sculptures also cracked.
I heard a bang, a bang,
Figures leap out of the sculpture.
At the same time, the sound of the tide of the sea rose, and from within the surrounding walls, a dense mass of black insects poured out.
These insects are not too big, they are pitch black, and there is a spike on their heads, and if you pick them up and look closely, you will find that they have sharp teeth under their abdomen.
"It's not a sculpture, it's a human !!"
Tang Huayi's eyes are light together, and there are stars flowing in his eyes.
Demon thoughts!
"Stop!"
Tang Huayi's voice sounded.
However, the Gu worms around him still roared without the slightest pause.
At the same time, three figures broke through the sky and went straight to Jiang Ran and Tang Huayi.
Jiang Ran took Tang Huayi's hand and dragged it behind him.
As soon as the Immortal Tiangang turned, there was a hula, and a gust of wind protected the two of them.
The surrounding Gu worms just touched this immortal Tiangang and jumped away, but there were also tenacious people, climbing along the gang qi, even if they were broken by the gang wind, they were unwilling to retreat, and finally died on top of the gang qi.
Layered, dense, endless.
But how the three figures came to be, and how they returned.
All of their moves hit themselves.
But these figures, rolling on the spot, as if nothing happened, got up again, and rushed forward.
Tang Huayi said in surprise at this point:
"Demonic thoughts are useless?"
"The demonic thoughts of the heart can be used on the living, but can they still be used on the dead?"
Jiang Ran said softly:
"How can a living person be sealed in stone?
"Don't eat, don't drink water, don't go to the toilet? Or is it every time you go out and do these things, and when you come back, you seal yourself back in a stone?
"Not too much trouble?"
"So...... They are not living people? ”
"Hmm."
Jiang Ran glanced up at the three figures who were slapping the immortal Tiangang with all their might, and said softly:
"Do you remember that Bab?"
This happened not far away, just two days ago.
Tang Huayi naturally remembers.
This Bean tribe controls the nematodes and thus manipulates the corpse, and the means can be described as extremely weird.
And then suddenly:
"It turns out that they were manipulated by similar means."
"Not only that......"
Jiang Ran pulled Tang Huayi with one hand, and with the other hand behind his back, he said softly:
"These guys are very strong, and they still retain some of the skills they had when they did it.
"It can manipulate Gu worms to kill people.
"It probably took a lot of thought to get these eight."
As he spoke, he suddenly took out a piccolo from his bosom as well.
This was captured by Jiang Ran and the others when they first went to the Ghost King's Palace.
The piccolo of the flute clan is very rare, and Jiang Ran has always carried it with him.
It's just that there's not much chance of using it.
He said to Tang Huayi:
"How about I play a song for you?"
"Yes, yes!"
Tang Huayi didn't have any nervous looks.
She's just afraid of ghosts.
In addition, she is not afraid of death even if the others are killed, let alone the situation in front of her?
I saw Jiang Ran bring the piccolo to his lips, take a deep breath, and play.
Voiceless!
However, there is a strange rhythm.
The Gu worm that was originally bent on attacking Jiang Ran suddenly made waves.
Faintly presented, the scene of cannibalism.
However, there were five figures on the opposite side, which strengthened the power of the blowing.
Let the few waves that have just been raised regain calm again.
Tang Hua laughed at this:
"Brother-in-law, you can't do it either."
Jiang Ran pursed his lips and took off the piccolo:
"Falling to the ground is different from what others have practiced since childhood, and I just know how to do it......
"That's it."
As he spoke, his sleeves shook slightly, and a chill immediately spread from him as the center and spread in all directions.
The cold wind swept in all directions.
Countless Gu worms fell under the cold wind, and their corpses fell like snow.
But more Gu worms came one after another.
Tang Huayi frowned:
"How can there be so many?"
"The accumulation of a hundred years and thousands of years, how can you underestimate it?"
Jiang Ran shook his head slightly:
"It seems that you have to capture the thief and capture the king first......"
At this point, the cold wind suddenly turned into a sword.
Slash straight at the five playing golems on the other side.
This is the lonely wind in Jiang Ran's astonishing nine swords.
Silent ...... After the wind passes, the world is silent.
How can a few puppets stop it?
All they could hear was a thudding sound, and all the piccolos in their hands shattered.
Without them, they went forward and added fuel to the fire, and the Gu worms around them suddenly lost their goals.
was swept by Jiang Rangang's wind, and it faded like a tide.
Immediately following Jiang Ran, the wind around him suddenly dissipated, but there was a law to rise from the ground.
Fortunately, in this cave, it is relatively spacious, otherwise, it would not be able to accommodate Jiang Ran's law phase at all.
I saw that he clenched his fist, and the word 'swastika' appeared on it, and the Donkey Kong Demon Fist was violently struck.
The huge fist shadow fell, and these eight figures didn't even have a trace of carrying hands, so they were beaten upside down and flew away, scattering into dust.
