In the boundless cold darkness, there was a long, faint cyan glow of stone pavement, which seemed to be broken a little in the middle. The surroundings were silent and cold, empty and oppressive, and the extreme darkness seemed to be able to swallow everything and make people fearful.

With a finger from afar, Wang could see that there was a pale cyan thing on the opposite side, glowing. For some reason, in the darkness where he couldn't see his fingers, the faint light was not so eye-catching, it seemed to blend in with the background, or it was too far away from him, and it was not excluded that the candlelight of the bronze lamp in his hand obscured his vision. In short, he could barely see what existed on the other side, which was the broken bluestone pavement.

Zhang Linchen took advantage of the direction of Wang Duan's finger, looked at it for a moment, squinted his eyes and said, "It should be the road that is broken." ”

"For some reason here, the poor road can't fly into the air, so if you want to get there, you can only jump!" Wang Duan frowned.

"It feels like it's far away, can you jump over?" Zhang Linchen measured, because the four sides were too dark and there was no reference, it was difficult for him to grasp the specific distance on the other side.

Suddenly, the king's whole body was surrounded by divine light, in this darkness, extremely dazzling, and then he punched out a palm, and a brilliant light rushed out, but before it could touch or even shine on the cyan slate, it was swallowed by the darkness and instantly annihilated.

"It's so far?" Zhang Linchen clearly sensed that Wang Du's blow was powerful, at least far more than him, but there was still some space on the other side.

Wang Jian thought for a while, and felt that it was very tricky, and he didn't dare to jump over directly, so he couldn't help complaining: "Who has nothing to do to interrupt the road, it's really full!"

"Why don't you throw something and take a look?" Zhang Linchen proposed.

Hearing this, Wang Duan nodded in agreement.

He took out two fist-sized pieces of discarded material, one of which he threw into the cold darkness in front of him, like a mud cow entering the sea, silently, without making any waves.

He weighed the other piece and threw it lightly, and the scrap formed a parabola. After passing through the place where there was no light and disappearing for a moment, the two saw a black mass directly pass by the cyan glow on the opposite shore and fall into the darkness.

Zhang Linchen: "......"

Wang Duan glanced at him and said embarrassedly: "Poor Dao made a mistake, it doesn't matter, do it again." ”

He pulled out another slightly larger scrap, weighed it a few more times, stared at it, and threw it away. In less than a breath, he only heard a "jingle bell", which was very crisp, and a flash of joy flashed in his eyes.

"Did you deduce it?" Zhang Linchen asked.

Wang Duan frowned slightly, "um", he had a rough distance in his heart through the time of landing and the sound that came, no more than ten zhang. But the important thing is, why didn't the attack he unleash just now reach the other side of the river without crossing a distance of more than ten feet?

He tried it again, and found that it was still the case, and finally he gave an answer in his heart, that is, any Dao method released here would be weakened to a great extent, which was why he couldn't step into the air.

"Did you figure it out?"

Zhang Linchen saw that he slapped the other side again, the light was fleeting, and then he looked pensive.

Wang Duan said truthfully: "We are no more than ten zhang away from the other side. ”

"It's not too far. Zhang Linchen pondered: "You can jump over." ”

Wang Duan held the candle lamp, looked at him and said, "The key is that Daoist friends dare to jump?"

"This ......" Facing the dark and boundless space under him, a trace of fear rose in Zhang Linchen's heart, which was a kind of dead silence. Unlike before, there was no light, only deep darkness, and that was the biggest reason for fear.

Thinking back to the kind of fear he had encountered, it was desperate, for a while, Zhang Linchen was actually not so afraid, his eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, and he said in a firm tone: "I can jump over." ”

"Good!" Wang Duan exclaimed: "It is worthy of being a friend of Linchen Dao, so resolute and brave, not afraid of anything, with an invincible heart, and the poor road is far behind!"

Zhang Linchen tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "Don't be so godly, don't you just want me to jump first?"

As if he had seen through the trick, Wang Jian smiled stiffly: "That...... Poor Dao is a sincere admiration for Taoist friends, before thinking about it, Taoist friends are on the next gram, across a big realm to kill the enemy, shocking people's hearts, but unfortunately poor Dao did not observe the Taoist Shenwei, quite regrettable, now ......"

"Alright, alright. ”

Hearing Wang Duan boast like this, Zhang Linchen felt embarrassed, his old face turned red, and he waved his hand and said: "If you want me to be the first to jump, you can give me half of the water in your gourd." ”

Hearing this, Wang Duan said with a serious expression: "Daoist friends have misunderstood, how can poor Daoist friends let Daoist friends explore the way? This kind of thing should be done by poor Daoists!"

He stood on the broken bluestone slab, put away the items in his hand, squinted at the faint glow in front of him, kicked his footsteps, ran out, and his figure disappeared into the darkness.

The next moment, a bean-sized point of light appeared on the opposite bank, Wang Duan held a candle and said loudly: "Fellow Daoist, come here!"

Zhang Linchen retreated a distance, calmed down, looked ahead, ran hard, and finally indulged in a leap.

Da!

With a soft sound, Zhang Linchen stepped on the hard bluestone slab, he breathed a sigh of relief, Wang Duan walked over with the lamp, and said, "Let's go." ”

In this dark place of the world, the two of them continued to walk along a bluestone road, not in a hurry, slowly.

I don't know how long it took, Wang Duan stopped his steps, and suddenly whispered: "Wait a minute, it seems to be the end." ”

I saw that the bluestone slab that emitted a glow had reached the end, and the front was dark and dark, and Wang Duan turned on the candle lamp and saw that there was a relatively wide place in front of him. He squatted down and touched it, and found that it was made of bronze, so he walked up with confidence, followed by Zhang Linchen.

"There are bones. ”

There was a golden corpse lying on the ground in front of Zhang Linchen, I don't know what race it was, it should be quite powerful.

The two of them ignored the faint candlelight and continued to move forward, but after taking a few steps, Wang Duan immediately stopped, his whole body tensed, and he looked ahead.

Zhang Linchen also stopped, glanced at Wang Duan suspiciously, and then looked towards his gaze, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat.

I saw a silhouette in the darkness ahead, and I couldn't even notice it if I didn't look closely. The silhouette was very strange, standing up, about the waist, and it was impossible to see what it was, but it could not be ruled out that it was the corpse of some creature.

After a while, the outline did not change at all, the two decided to slowly lean forward, when they reached a certain distance, when Wang Wu raised the lamp to look, Zhang Linchen was startled again, feeling that his scalp was numb, this is actually a person! And it is very weird and terrifying!

This is an old man, his eyes are slightly closed, his beard and hair are black, his clothes are exquisite, his fairy style is bone, and his demeanor is natural. He was meditating, his eyes slightly closed, his skin smooth, and a futon under him, revealing a hint of time overall. But the most terrifying thing is that his skin is actually purple, as if he has undergone some kind of abnormality.

It can be said that in this extremely dark environment, the sudden appearance of such a person will surprise and even frighten anyone.

"It's not a real person, it's a statue. Wang Duan stared at it for a while and came to this conclusion.

Zhang Linchen also began to get closer, observed carefully, and couldn't help but sigh: "This is too lifelike, except for the skin, it is just like a real person." ”

"It's best not to mess with the stuff here, or something weird will happen. The king commanded.

"Don't worry, I'm still clear about that. Zhang Linchen simply responded.

Skimming over the statue, the two then found a stone tablet on the ground, which was not connected to the bronze on the ground, but more like it was placed later, with twelve words written on it: Don't look at the door, there is no creation, if you insist, you can only die.

Zhang Linchen saw the meaning of the words, frowned, and said, "Is this a warning?"

The words are supposed to be written in blood. Wang Jian leaned on the stone tablet, sniffed it with his nose, and said: "The writer's physique is absolutely extraordinary, you see this blood, three points into the stone, obviously eroded later, and it is still bright red, but the essence has been lost." ”

"I had a bad premonition. Zhang Linchen stared at the stone tablet.

The font on it is not ancient, it is relatively easy to distinguish, Wang Duan stood up, looked at the darkness in front of him, and said, "Take a look first, and if there is anything unusual, leave immediately." ”

Zhang Linchen thought about it for a while and agreed.

The two walked less than five feet, and a square black outline appeared in front of the two of them, Zhang Linchen guessed: "Is this a wall?"

When they got closer, the two of them saw that it was a square black wall, covered with dense blue symbols like tadpoles and insects. These symbols seem to be moving gently in an imperceptible way, and it is difficult for ordinary people to feel the Tao.

Wang Duan was stunned at first, then his face changed greatly, and he immediately shouted: "Close your eyes!"

Zhang Linchen seemed to have known that as soon as Wang Duan spoke, he closed his eyes, because he remembered the words on the stone tablet before, and now it seems that the wall-like thing in front of him is probably the so-called "door".

"Bow your head and leave this door!" commanded the king.

The two lowered their heads and followed the candlelight to cross the "door", and Zhang Linchen also asked curiously, "What's going on?"

"There is a big problem with this door, and it can actually make Lao Tzu fall into a demonic obstacle. Wang Duan had a feeling of the rest of his life, he wiped his cold sweat, and said: "Fortunately, Lao Tzu remembered the words of the stone tablet and woke up in time." ”

"Then why am I fine? Zhang Linchen was puzzled.

"The realm of Daoyou is low, so it doesn't work at first, but if Daoyou looks at that door for a long time, it will gradually fall into the magic barrier like the poor Dao. Wang Duan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "And Poor Dao suspects this thing, the higher the realm, the easier it is to be tricked." ”

"How can this be?" Zhang Linchen asked, the stronger the person, the easier it is to fall into the magic barrier, what is the reason? Shouldn't it be the other way around?

"It's hard to explain, in short, this door is the most terrifying and incredible existence that Poor Dao has ever seen, Poor Dao can't imagine who forged this door, no wonder it is placed in such a place. Wang Duan was a little excited, as if he had seen a rare treasure.

When they had completely calmed down, they moved away from the door and searched around, but there was nothing but a few corpses, and the place was not as big as they had imagined, and they quickly turned it all over.
