XLVII. Theft
At the end of the passage, there is a permanent lamp.
The orange-yellow firelight is faint,
Shine on a large mottled iron gate.
The dumb old man stepped forward and groped for a while on the door,
Rumble Rumble,
A wooden platform surrounded by an iron fence rose from below.
Whoop -
The iron door opens automatically.
Elevators existed as early as ancient China,
Seeing this "elevator"-like platform, Murong Tian was not surprised.
He thought that the dumb old man would stay outside the door and operate this "elevator" and shake it down with the help of manpower.
But the dumb old man entered the car with everyone.
I saw him click a few times on the wall of the compartment,
"Boom"
The platform began to decline.
"How can there be an elevator in this world!"
Murong Tian was shocked and questioned the system in his heart.
System sound trembling:
"No... Not necessarily an 'elevator'. ”
"I can't detect its powertrain!"
"Bang-"
The elevator reached the bottom, and the iron fence opened.
Murong Tian got out of the car,
Glanced back.
There were no driving wheels on the top of the box that ancient human elevators have, and there were no chains or ropes.
So what exactly is it driven by!
Ahead is an incomparably deep passageway.
This time, there was not even a lantern, it was dark and silent.
The only sound in my ears was the breathing of the crowd.
The dumb old man takes the lead,
There is no need for lighting either,
Straight into the darkness.
Elder Yu took the lantern from Yu Qing's hand and led everyone to follow closely.
I don't know how long I walked, Yu Qing estimated that he had already come out of the range of the Jade Void Peak, and he didn't know if there was any out of the Immortal Mountain.
There was a faint yellow light ahead.
It's an ever-bright light!
The forbidden realm should be in front of you.
Thinking that the true face of the incomparably mysterious forbidden realm was about to be revealed, everyone's breathing slowed down.
It's close!
Through the light of the lantern, it can be seen that there is a large raised gray-black stone slab in the center of the stone wall.
If it weren't for the guidance of the everlasting lamp, the color of the stone slab would have blended with the surrounding mountain walls and would not have been easily discovered.
The size of the slab is only half a man's height,
If there is space in it, people can only crawl in it.
Is it possible to drill another channel?
The dumb old man groped on the stone slab,
Rumble Rumble,
The slate is automatically removed.
The true face of the forbidden domain has finally emerged -
A small square space.
It's not like a forbidden area, it's more like a safe......
The space was empty, and everyone waited for a while before a small box slowly rose from the bottom of the space.
In such a painstaking place to repair, there is only one box hidden?!
What is in this box should be the purpose of their trip - the ancient books of exercises.
The box popped open, and inside it was really a tattered ancient book, and the pages were all fried.
It seems that Fang Zhixin is really not wrong.
But this "forbidden area" is extremely dim, and it is obviously not suitable for meditation here.
Fang Zhixin should have copied it down, or memorized it in his head.
In any case, this was not taken out of the forbidden territory in the first place.
Feng Junyou opened the package tied to his back and took out a pen and paper.
Elder Yu was just about to reach out and take out this ancient book, but the dumb old man stood in front of him, his face grim.
He gestured to Elder Yu.
Elder Yu was surprised:
"He's saying that this ancient book can't be taken out, otherwise it will trigger the mechanism of the forbidden realm."
Shangyang Dao Chief, probably before putting this ancient book into the forbidden realm, was already familiar with it.
How was the faith learned?
While everyone was thinking about it, they saw that the dumb old man raised a purple cyclone, approaching the ancient book, and the pages were turned by him.
Yu Qing and Murong Tian were stunned.
This purple cyclone, they had seen it when Fang Zhixin and the Shangyang Dao Long Fighting Method.
It's rare that this old Taoist cultivator has the same evil skills as these two people?
However, the look of the dumb old man changed.
His palms trembled, and the purple cyclone could not condense, and slowly dispersed.
He vomited hoarsely in his throat for a long time, and could not make a sound,
After a while, he remembered to compare gestures.
"He said, this is not the ancient book of exercises, the things in it have been changed."
Elder Yu explained.
Murong Tian secretly breathed a sigh of relief,
Finally, I don't have to face the ending that my sister may be killed by the plot.
……
Yu Qing took a closer look at the lantern, and was frightened.
There is no writing in that ancient book!
There is only a blank slate!
Is it Fang Zhixin?
How did he steal the beam and change the pillar without triggering the forbidden domain mechanism!
Elder Yu's expression also changed, his eyes flashed, his expression was panicked, and he hurriedly gestured at the dumb old man.
The dumb old man was silent for a long time, and suddenly, his gaze locked tightly on Elder Yu.
That dumb old man wouldn't doubt Elder Yu!
The only people who are familiar with the forbidden domain mechanism are the Shangyang Dao Commander and this dumb old Dao.
If this dumb old Taoist colluded with Fang Zhixin......
Yu Qing was startled and quietly observed the look of the dumb old man.
I saw that the dumb old man was still staring at Elder Yu tightly, and his throat was rumbling, like a demonstration before a fierce beast attacked.
She quietly drew her silver sword.
"Boom!"
The dumb old man suddenly made a move, and a palm struck at Elder Yu.
!
Is that dumb old man crazy?
Or because he was afraid that the unfavorable things of his guarding the forbidden domain would be exposed, and he wanted to kill people!
Elder Yu dodged sideways, leaving a deep pit in the stone wall behind him.
This dumb old man's skill is so profound.
Everyone was shocked.
Seeing that the dumb old dao's target seemed to be only aimed at Elder Yu, everyone took up arms and joined the battle to distract the old dao's attention.
"Boom!"
The dumb old man is another palm.
This hit Feng Junyou's body directly.
He was eager to save the teacher, and stood straight in front of Elder Yu.
"Senior Brother Feng!"
Tong Lingshan exclaimed, tears instantly filling her eyes.
Feng Junyou spat out a mouthful of blood, and his pupils dilated.
Forcibly took this palm, and he only felt that his chest and lungs were crushed by a strong force.
The old man looked sad and gestured hurriedly.
But except for Elder Yu, no one recognized sign language.
Elder Yu was dumbfounded, and said angrily:
"You old man, when you secretly practiced forbidden arts, the sect master was merciful, and allowed you to make up for your mistakes and guard the forbidden area, but now you are guarding the failure, allowing thieves to break in, stealing beams and changing pillars, and you still want to kill people and kill people, and injure my apprentice!"
That dumb old man really practiced evil skills.
I saw that the dumb old man was also angry, his eyes were red, and his expression was almost crazy, and he once again attacked in the direction of Elder Yu like a ghost.
"Boom!"
The two elders palmed each other, stirring up the sea of Qi to the sky.
Everyone present was shocked by this powerful palm, and Feng Junyou fainted directly, his eyes closed, not knowing life or death.
Yu Qing urgently recited the Mind Purifying Mantra to protect his heart.
What's worse is that the stone wall where the ancient book is located has been affected by the second elder's palm, and a crack has been cracked.
One of the boxes was knocked over to the ground, and the fake ancient books were thrown aside.
The lantern was overturned, it had been extinguished, and the passage was so dark that you couldn't see your fingers.
The ground began to shake violently, and rocks continued to fall from the top of the passage.
Worst!
The trap has been triggered!
