Song of the Cave Immortals Chapter 15 The Nine Palaces Giant Array
When the last person enters the aperture, the entrance closes automatically.
Su Mai thought there must be something strange inside, but when he entered, he found that there was no vision other than those ancient and huge stone pillars.
The only difference is that there is a white light around and even overhead, as if this stone henge is already a relatively closed world.
Su Mai approached the stone pillar and found that the people who had come in earlier had already walked towards the depths of the huge array, and there were newcomers hurrying by one after another, obviously in a hurry to find an exit.
At this moment, Su Mai is not in a hurry to go deeper, if there is no vision here, half an hour is enough for everyone to go out, if it is really strange, it is in vain to look for it rashly.
Walking through the boulders, the surroundings are quiet.
Looking at those mottled and clumsy stone carvings, Su Mai suddenly had the illusion of returning to the primitive.
In addition to these giant pillars that seem to come from ancient times, the heavens and the earth are chaotic, they don't distinguish between things and things, and the aperture is dense, sealing this place tightly, where does it look like there is a way out?
In less than a moment, Su Mai felt that the surrounding sounds gradually increased, and people returned to the stone formation one after another.
After a while, the number of people gradually increased, and everyone who was in high spirits before turned back at this moment, one by one depressed, without the ambition they had at the beginning, and there were complaints everywhere.
"What the hell, there's no way out here, let alone half an hour, you can't get out even for a day!"
A familiar voice came, and Su Mai turned his head, and it was the little fat man who had previously asserted that he could come out with half a stick of incense.
As soon as the voice fell, there was a burst of complaints around him.
Just when everyone was at a loss and in a hurry, a voice suddenly sounded, breaking everyone's anxiety.
"Everyone, don't get bored!"
Everyone searched for their voices, and the person who spoke was Su Mai.
Looking at everyone's expectant eyes, Su Mai continued:
"There must be something strange in this Stonehenge, and the Iron Sword Gate has gone to great lengths to set up this bureau, and it will definitely not be as simple as letting us out, so don't look for it indiscriminately, it is in vain to waste time, it is better to gather the strengths of the crowd and discuss it together to see if you can find a clue."
"This brother is right, we can't find it like this, and we all have to be eliminated in the end. ”
The little fat man was the most active, and he had already walked towards Su Mai as he spoke.
"In the lower high soaring, I would like to listen to the brother Gao Zhi"
The little fat man arched his hand to Su Mai and said.
Su Mai announced his name, returned the salute, and then said:
"You have been looking here for a long time, what have you found?"
"Nothing was found, this place is completely closed, there is no way at all"
Gao Xiang said.
"I went to the entrance where we came in just now, and the door was gone, and I tried to push the white light around me, but it was like a wall, and I couldn't push it at all."
A girl's voice came.
Su Mai looked at it, but a thin and petite girl in the crowd was looking at her, if she hadn't spoken suddenly, it would have been difficult to find in the crowd.
Su Mai nodded at her, and said after a moment of silence:
"Since there is no exit on the ground, I think if there is no mechanism or something, the exit should be in the sky."
"Heavenly?"
Everyone looked at each other and looked at Su Mai with wide eyes.
"Yes, in my opinion, since the Iron Sword Gate wants to assess us, there is only half an hour's time, it shouldn't be too difficult, what kind of secret passage should be set up for us to find, if so, once found, everyone can go out, it is against the purpose of the selection, everyone has searched around, and there is nothing abnormal, so this exit can only be on it", Su Mai asserted.
"Even if it's in the sky, we don't know how to go up?"
Gao Xiang asked eagerly.
"The only way to do this is to rely on these pillars"
Su Mai touched the rough stone carvings in front of him, confused for a while.
"You don't want us to climb up these pillars, do you?"
The girl who spoke just now had already walked out of the crowd at this moment, stood beside Su Mai, and asked puzzledly.
"If we can climb up this pillar, maybe there will be an exit from it"
Su Mai touched his head and said leisurely.
Everyone looked up at the stone pillar in front of them, the dragon pattern hovered upward, and the dragon head at the top of the column was high, hideous and terrifying.
The momentum of devouring the sky and the sun made the young men and women below feel weak, not to mention climbing up, even if they looked at it more, they felt terrible.
Su Mai was also a little weak in his heart, and he didn't know what to do with his bold proposal.
"Who's going to go first?" the girl asked suddenly.
Everyone was silent for a while, but their eyes were unanimously looking at Su Mai.
Su Mai shook his head and smiled bitterly, since it was his own plan, naturally he was the only one who tried it first.
Gritting his teeth, Su Mai found the nearest stone pillar to him and walked over.
Just as he was looking for how to settle down, Gao Xiang walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and said:
"Brother Sumai, don't force it, this stone pillar is more than ten zhang high, if you fall down, it will kill you."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar, and a few more people came over to persuade Su Mai, it doesn't matter if you can't be a disciple of the Iron Sword Sect, it's not cost-effective to throw your life here.
The crowd was noisy, and there was some confusion for a while, and Su Mai was also a little undecided.
"I believe in you!" Amidst a burst of exhortation, a voice suddenly came from something unusual.
Su Mai's heart moved, but it was the little girl just now who was walking over leisurely.
"Su Mai, I believe you, you will definitely be able to go up"
The girl continued: "You go first, and I will follow you".
"Thank you"
Su Mai was a little moved, when everyone was against it and he was about to waver, how important it was to have personal support, not to mention a girl who seemed to be weak.
"My name is Han Ping'er"
The girl looked at Su Mai and said softly.
"Han Ping'er, don't worry, I will definitely go up, wait until I climb up first, go up to see the situation and then call you." ”
Su Mai said firmly, looking at this girl, Su Mai at this moment had no fear at all, and his blood was agitated, as if the stone pillar in front of him was a ladder to the sky.
Han Ping'er nodded, walked to the stone pillar, and stretched out his hand to grope, wanting to help Su Mai find a foothold.
Su Mai looked carefully at the dragon pattern on the stone pillar, and then reached out and touched the stone pillar.
If you want to climb this stone pillar, the only way is to follow the dragon pattern.
This huge stone pillar is like a wall, only this dragon pattern can still be settled, and the stone is rough, there should be a place to focus.
Try to try to step on the slightly upturned dragon tail at the bottom of the stone pillar, it feels heavy and solid, Su Mai feels a little more steady, this stone pillar looks mottled, but the texture is extremely hard.
Holding the stone with both hands, facing inward against the pillar, Su Mai carefully stepped on it along the dragon pattern.
Gao Xiang gently supported him, and after trying a few steps, Su Mai felt not as weak as before, motioned for Gao Xiang to put it down, took a deep breath, and climbed up.
One-step, two-step, three-step...... After about thirty steps, Sumai stood firm.
glanced down slightly, and saw Gao Xiang and the others stretching their necks to look at him, Han Ping'er was even more concerned, his eyes were wide open, and he looked up.
"Su Mai, be careful"
Gao Xiang shouted.
Su Mai nodded slightly, no longer looked down, his left hand pressed against the stone pillar, and the five fingers of his right hand opened for a while.
After going back and forth a few times, suddenly, a small depression was found in front of his right side.
Su Mai leaned forward and found that it was a hidden groove, just stretched into his four fingers, Su Mai was surprised, and hurriedly fastened the groove and climbed forward, and found the same groove after taking two steps.
Su Mai looked up and took a closer look, and found that the grooves were flattened, not naturally formed, but rather carved with the tip of a sword, and the color was obviously newer than the surrounding area.
Could it be that this is specially carved by the Iron Sword Gate to make it easier for us to climb?
Su Mai's heart moved, and he vaguely felt that his inference was correct, and the exit of this stone henge was on the top of the stone pillar.
Looking at the dragon head at the top, Su Mai was a little excited, and the assessment of the Iron Sword Gate was nothing more than that.
I was feeling complacent, my heart relaxed, and I didn't pay attention, the soles of my feet slipped back, and my legs suddenly hung in the air.
Su Mai was taken aback, his right hand probed and grabbed the edge of the groove, and his left hand propped up on the stone pillar and hung up his whole body.
"Ah......" The crowd was agitated, and everyone raised their hearts to the noisy eyes.
I only heard Han Ping'er scream: "Su Mai be careful!" The voice was a little poignant.
Su Mai froze, clasped the five fingers of his right hand, pulled his body up, bent and stretched his legs, and slowly returned to the protruding dragon pattern.
Down-to-earth, it is considered to be in danger, but it is also scared out of a cold sweat, if it really falls, it will have to fall half to death.
When everyone was panicking, a white light shot down from above, faintly covering Su Mai.
It's just that this light is almost transparent, and even Su Mai himself didn't notice it.
