Chapter 184: Trap
At first, I thought that the unfathomable passage was actually more than ten zhang. The ground and stone walls inside were all densely packed with sharp organs that had been quenched with poison, and there were also imperceptible silk threads in the hollow places, which glowed with blue venom.
"If you walk in, it will trigger the mechanism and poison, and if you don't die, you will have to shed your skin." Zhong Lingge walked to the entrance of the passage, not daring to get too close, and only used his divine sense to observe the situation inside. "It seems to be melting blood, and once it gets into the blood, it will melt the bones, blood, lungs and even dantian."
"Thankfully I didn't go in! I didn't expect the predecessors who wrote so brightly to be so vicious! Hu Jiufei looked back at the brief biography of Sanxiu indignantly, wishing that he could take back the bow he had just bowed.
Lan Xianyue stepped forward, and after a moment of silence, she said, "I think the passage is real, and the venom and the arrangement of the mechanism are someone else. ”
"Huh? Why? Zhong Lingge didn't think about this possibility at all, she, like Hu Jiufei, took it for granted that this was deliberately done by the owner of the relict mansion.
Lan Xianyue thought differently to her.
"A Yuanying real person who is good at formations, understands mechanisms, and can refine puppets is unlikely to use poison in the relics again. Moreover, the mechanisms in the passage are too obvious and crude, as if they were the work of beginners or unproficient people. With the glorious experience of the owner of the relic, it is really contrary to common sense that he will not be reduced to such a superficial finished product under the cloth, and it must be supplemented by poison to harm people. ”
As soon as she analyzed, Zhong Lingge and Hu Jiufei both realized that something was wrong.
Especially Zhong Lingge, she also thought that she had made a mistake in solving the formation with the formation, and inspired the wrong route that should not be excited, it turned out that her method of solving the formation was correct, this passage was indeed the passage to the first level, but I don't know who set up a new obstacle.
"That makes sense! According to common sense, the passage to the first level should not be difficult, and there is no obstacle to the three zhang we have sunk, and there should be no obstacle to this step. ”
"Does this mean that someone has gone before us and set a trap after the past?" Hu Jiufei was a little puzzled, "I entered the relic mansion to hunt for treasure, what happened to the people who came after?" ”
"Maybe I was stopped when I reached the first level, and my heart was unbalanced." Zhong Lingge said as he checked the structure and stability inside the passage to make sure that it could withstand a certain degree of attack, so he took out a stack of first-order talismans and began to destroy the quenching mechanism.
The fire attribute talisman is strong in attack, and burning can bring secondary damage, burning the venom clean.
The passages and caverns shook slightly, and a little dust and rubble fell from the tops, and there was no sign of collapse.
The fire was dazzling, and the spirit pressure of the talisman overflowed the passage from time to time, and as soon as he rushed to the cave, he was blocked by the array plate laid by Zhong Lingge, and returned to the passage and repeatedly impacted.
In less than half a pillar of incense, the mess of sharp thorns and silk threads in the passage was completely destroyed, and the burned stone walls and ground were blackened, but they could barely be seen as they were.
It is indeed just an ordinary passage, and even the "end" that I saw at a glance just now is also the arrangement of the latecomers, and after the attack of the talisman, the stone wall has collapsed into rubble, revealing the road behind.
Zhong Lingge used his divine sense to probe the distance, which happened to be the same as her calculation. "It's Sanzhang, walk over and you'll get to the first level."
The three of them successfully reached the second stone cave through the passage, and when they looked back, the place on the opposite side of the passage had been sealed, and it was a one-way passage that could not be entered.
This stone cave is several times larger than the stone cave just now, the top is inlaid with sea pearls, hundreds of years apart, the light has dimmed, fortunately, there are a lot of them, you can see the scene in the cave.
A dry skeleton sat against the stone wall due south, with an empty bottle scattered at his feet, and a third-order high-grade magic weapon with no spiritual energy in his hand.
"There's still residual poison in the bottle, and that's the one who put the barrier? I didn't find my way forward and couldn't get out, I was trapped here alive, no wonder I was so vicious. Zhong Lingge took away the storage bag on the waist of the corpse, and opened the bag that had long been devoid of spiritual energy as soon as he touched it.
There are not many things in the bag, and there are very few that can be used, except for the nine medium-grade spirit stones, only three jade slips are well preserved.
""The Art of Organs", "The Origin of Organs", and "Poison and Organs" seem to be indeed studying institutions and cannot be introduced." Zhong Lingge divided the spirit stone into three parts, divided one into three pieces, and handed all the jade slips to Hu Jiufei.
Hu Jiufei glanced at it and said, "I read the content in Bingyi, but the name has been changed." He said that this was an introductory book written a hundred years ago, and that it would be okay to look at it, but it would not be of much help. ”
The bones of the Jindan period and the third-order high-grade magic weapon can indeed be preserved for nearly a hundred years, and most of this monk has obtained the information of the relics and wants to find the true way of the mechanism, but the strength is not enough to lose here.
Zhong Lingge's fingertips lit a cluster of flames, flicked at the bones, the flames burned, and there was a thunderclap sound, and the bones quickly turned into black powder and fell to the ground.
"The first hurdle is the formation, I feel it."
Zhong Lingge pointed to the place where the bones were sitting.
"Where he sits, here, here, here. There are a total of four pathways that need to be opened one by one, one of which is the life path. ”
Zhong Lingge took out the formation flag, sat in the center of the stone cave, and began to observe the formation base under the surface.
The monks of the lower regions, whether in ancient times or today, will only use array flags, formation lots, and spirit stones as formation bases, unlike the Tai Chi period, where everything can be used, and these humanly made formation bases are much easier to find than natural formation bases.
"Found one!"
A few beads of sweat oozed from Zhong Lingge's forehead, and his eyes were glowing with excitement.
As long as you find one, you can find all of them along the vine, and then use it to open the channel with the array!
Hu Jiufei and Lan Xianyue were useless, so they could only silently cheer for her on the side, from time to time to perform a cooling technique for her, or cross a stream of spiritual wine to increase her spiritual power.
After a search, Zhong Lingge's spiritual power was almost not lost.
"There are a total of seventy-nine formation bases, and the formation is the Nine Palace Bagua Seven Star Great Hidden Formation, the fourth order, and it is not aggressive. It's not easy to solve the hidden way of life, and here is the real test, the connection to the spiritual veins is too deep, and it may take me a long time. ”
Zhong Lingge was not boring at all, he first used the mantra to engrave this great hidden array into his mind, and after greeting his friends, he couldn't wait to sit in place and began to analyze the formation with great devotion.
Seven days passed in a flash, Zhong Lingge calculated and analyzed day after day, consumed nearly half of it to meditate and cultivate, recovered to the peak and continued to invest, almost not feeling the passage of time. Hu Jiufei and Lan Xianyue have always been patient, following her rhythm to practice meditation or transmission chatting together, passing the time without hurry.
It wasn't until the eighth day of entering this place that the passage outside suddenly shook, and the three of them suddenly woke up from their meditation and looked at the entrance vigilantly.
