Chapter 53: A Strange One-Story Tower
The purple-robed enforcer who led the way seemed unwilling to continue walking, pointed to the wooden bridge and said to Chen Xi: "Go forward from here and enter when you see the door, there are several portals in the first layer of the tower, you can choose any one yourself." Although the Lord ordered you to be locked, it doesn't really make much difference whether this place is locked or not, because once you go in, you will never be able to get out. ”
As he spoke, he opened the chains on Chen Xi's body. It seemed that he didn't want to stay here for a moment, so he explained a few words to Chen Xi and left: "Remember, you can only be in the top layer of the tower, and you must not go down." If you don't want to die so early, it's best not to doubt anything I say. ”
Chen Xi gathered his mind and asked, "When will I leave?"
The enforcer had already walked far away, and replied without looking back: "Then who knows, it depends on the mood of the lord." He doesn't have a great memory, though, and if he forgets about you, you'll probably have to stay in it for the rest of your life. ”
Chen Xi was a little annoyed in his heart, but he knew very well that he would not run away. He seemed to be quite calm, but in fact, his heart had already turned over the river, because his parents were locked up in the Nine Shadows Dungeon. Now, he was standing outside the Nine Shadows Dungeon, how could he escape and leave? Although he knew that with his current cultivation, it would be absolutely impossible for him to rescue his parents, but it was of great significance to him to find out the road and the situation of the Nine Shadows Dungeon in advance.
He took a deep breath and stepped onto the wooden bridge. The moment his teachings stepped onto the wooden bridge, it was as if the air had frozen. The wooden bridge is wobbly and gives the impression that it could collapse at any moment. In fact, this bridge is connected to the Nine Shadows dungeon from this end by many chains, and the chains are covered with a layer of wooden planks. I don't know how many years the planks haven't been replaced, and they look almost rotten.
Chen Xi didn't dare to be careless, nor did he dare to be anxious, and walked forward cautiously step by step. After only a few steps out, he suddenly felt a tightness under his feet, and when he looked down, a man covered in blood reached out from under the bridge and grabbed his foot. The man's face has no facial features, and his face is flat, as if he has a hairy egg on his neck. But it still made a sound, and dragged Chen Xi down hard: "Don't go forward, after you enter, you will be doomed, stop quickly...... I chose to jump into the abyss at the beginning, and you see that I have now gained eternal life and left ...... Leave ......"
Chen Xi struggled to break free of his feet and strode forward a few steps, he didn't dare to look back, he always felt that the man was crawling behind him. He had only walked a few steps forward when he suddenly saw a woman sitting there combing her hair in front of him. She held her head in one hand and a wooden comb in the other, and carefully combed her hair.
As soon as her hand holding her head turned, her face turned to Chen Xi's side. Then she grinned, and blood flowed out of her mouth as she laughed: "Don't go forward, there is endless hell ahead." Stay, you see I chose to stay, I will always be beautiful. ”
Chen Xi dodged to the side and added it. When she passed, the woman's hand turned again, and her face was still facing Chen Xi: "Young man, don't go any further." Believe me...... Stay to get eternity. ”
Chen Xi bit his lip and used the pain to keep himself awake. He strode forward, knowing that there was nothing in front of him, but he almost crashed into something. By the time he appeared, the thing was already less than half a meter in front of him, and if it wasn't for his extreme reflexes, he was afraid that something bad would happen.
It's a ...... Lamp holder?
What Chen Xi saw was a naked person, unable to distinguish between men and women. Because there was no skin on his body anymore, and the flesh was bloody, and the viscous blood was still dripping down. He held a bronze lamp above his head with his hands raised, but it didn't light it. The lamppost of Chen Xixian's bronze lamp was inserted into his skull, and there was a hole in the top of his head, and the lamppost was inserted from the hole all the way to I don't know how deep.
Chen Xi flashed to the side, and when he passed by this thing, the light suddenly turned on, it was a green fire, just like the brazier that Chen Xi saw when he came in, the fire did not have a trace of temperature.
"I voluntarily stop to light the way, and I am willing to give myself to unleash the light for those who come after me. I will turn my blood into oil, and it will never be extinguished when I am there. ”
These words drifted directly into Chen Xi's mind, hovering there all the time. Chen Xi's heart was very tight, and now he finally understood why the enforcer said that he didn't have to care about anything he saw on the way compared to the Nine Shadows Dungeon. The wooden bridge is very long, at least three hundred meters, and Chen Xi has encountered too many creepy things along the way.
Just as he was about to reach the end of the wooden bridge, he saw a person who was completely different from what he had encountered before. The man appeared to be an old woman, dressed in very clean and neat clothes. She had no damage on her body and a gentle smile on her face. No matter how you look at it, this is a kind old woman, and she should never be in such a place.
Seeing Chen Xi coming, the old woman poured a bowl of wine from the wooden barrel beside her and handed it to Chen Xi: "I was frightened just now, those things were all chosen to end their lives because they didn't dare to enter the Nine Shadows Dungeon, but how did they know that this wooden bridge was not in any realm, and dying here is eternal death, and they have always retained the appearance of when they died." Come, drink this bowl of wine to warm your body, the Nine Shadows dungeon is cold to the bone, you can't survive without this bowl of wine. ”
Chen Xi subconsciously took the wine, and then he saw a strange look flashing in the old woman's eyes. Chen Xi sneered, and spilled the wine in the bowl violently, all splashing it on the old lady's face. The old woman let out a terrible wail, and her face fell off with bits of wine.
She shook violently, and even the wooden bridge swayed with it. She kept reaching out and scratching at her face, grabbing a piece of flesh from her face every time. Then she let out a roar at Chen Xi, and several black poisonous snakes crawled out of her mouth, the poisonous snakes had their mouths open, and their fangs reflected a black-green luster.
Chen Xi skipped over the old woman, and his feet became very steady. The wooden bridge was finally finished, he couldn't help but look back, there was a fire burning on the wooden bridge, and all the strange things he had seen before were burned in the fire, and they seemed to want to rush out of the fire to catch Chen Xi, but they couldn't leave the wooden bridge.
......
......
The wooden bridge was burning, but it was not damaged. The bridge was still there, and the sea of fire came from nowhere, and the things that were churning in the fire were howling like wolves, and they were burning with flames. Chen Xi's heart was cold, and he didn't stay long and quickly stepped into the first layer of the Nine Shadows Dungeon.
This is the first layer, but the top layer. Chen Xi knew that the Nine Shadows Dungeon and the Transformation Tower were like a mirror image, and the base of the Nine Shadows Dungeon and the base of the Transformation Tower were connected. That is to say, if the top first layer of the tower can be broken, it will be able to enter the bottom layer of the transformation tower.
Before coming in, Chen Xi couldn't help but think about what would happen after he came in? Theoretically, he should fall down immediately, on the partition between the first-story tower and the second-story tower. Because the tower is upside down, then when you go in, you will have a pedestal above your head and a roof below...... But after Chen Xi came in, he realized that his speculation was wrong.
After entering, Chen Xixian was stepping on the ground under his feet, the roof was still above his head, and even when he raised his head, he could see a bright bead emitting a faint white light. There is no difference from the arrangement in the change tower, the only difference is that Chen Xi feels a little bloody, and his brain seems to be pressed by something.
After being in a trance for a few seconds, Chen Xi suddenly understood. It's not that the tower didn't turn upside down, it's that he also turned upside down. The moment he walked in the door, he was headed down and feet up, so he felt normal in the tower...... It's just that he doesn't know when it turned upside down like this tower.
Nothing has changed, when did it turn around?
Chen Xi looked around, and now this place is as empty as the Changing Tower. There was nothing on the first floor of the Transformation Tower, only some portals where you could enter and practice. The portals are all separate spaces, which is extraordinarily magical. Chen Xi watched as he walked, and the discomfort in his head became more and more intense. With his head down for such a long time, Chen Xi was worried that his body would not be able to bear it for too long.
However, he couldn't turn himself over. He tried to jump, but couldn't get both feet off the ground at the same time. There seems to be some other aura here, affecting him and suppressing him. Chen Xi tried to use the cultivation power in his body again, but now the dantian was empty, and there was nothing.
Here he turned into an ordinary person.
He didn't immediately choose a portal to enter, but walked up the steps and looked up. In fact, this is just an illusion, although he is looking up with his head up, in fact he is looking up with his head up. It's so easy to get confused here. After hesitating for a while, Chen Xi finally did not climb the stone steps.
He memorized his surroundings and chose the closest portal to the entrance of the tower. After he walked in, there was a lot of space here, and like the Fortune Tower, each portal was an independent space. What is different from the re-transport tower is...... There are people in this door.
A man who was looking at the smiling man sat motionless.
Chen Xi subconsciously took a step back, wanting to urge the Aoki Sword on his back, but without the power of cultivation, the Aoki Sword did not react. He looked closely at the man sitting cross-legged, and then let out a long sigh of relief. It was just a stone statue, but it was so finely carved that it looked like a living person.
After Chen Xixian didn't pose a threat to the stone statue, he began to walk around the room to see if there was anything wrong. Walked around and nothing. He didn't understand why Chen Dingdang locked himself up in the Nine Shadows Dungeon, and why there was no punishment after being locked in.
At this moment, Chen Xi's back suddenly cooled.
Because he had done a strange thing...... No matter where he went, the stone statue's face was facing him, smiling at him. The statue's eyes were fixed on him, no matter which direction he moved. That laugh, so creepy.
......
......
Inner Sect
Purple Qi Donglai Pavilion
The sect master looked at Chen Dingdang, the head of the Discipline Hall, and his face was a little unkind: "Why did you put him in the Nine Shadows Dungeon? There is nothing wrong with him. ”
Chen Dingdang shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "Because he died a purple-robed law enforcement, he should be punished." ”
The sect master snorted coldly: "Don't think I don't know, did Chen Diji give you any benefits?"
Chen Dingdang shook his head: "Sect Master, you can't just blame me, even if you are the Sect Master...... If you think I'm wrong, you can have someone else take charge of the Precept Hall. ”
The sect master's face changed, and he quickly calmed down again: "Don't think that I really can't do anything about you, even if you have a close relationship with Baijue, I can still abolish you." I warn you, if you don't bring Chen Xi out without any damage before the monthly exam, I will let you understand who is in charge of the inner sect. ”
Chen Dingdang smiled, turned around and walked out of the room: "If I think of it, I will release him." ”
