Chapter 55: Behind the Stone Wall
The beads that suddenly rolled down attracted Bai Shu's attention, Bai Shu picked up the jade beads, and looked carefully, this is a dark blue jade bead that is transparent all over, not big, about the size of a grape, and if you look closely, there seems to be a bright galaxy flowing slowly in the jade beads, just like a beautiful starry sky.
Although the jade beads are very small, and the carvings inside are even smaller, they faintly give Bai Shu a kind of looking up at the vast universe, which is shocking.
Click, click, click.
When Bai Shu was carefully observing the jade beads, a subtle sound came from the stone wall, and Bai Shu followed the sound and looked, and a beast's head stone carving appeared on the originally smooth stone wall. It's like the legendary Pixiu.
Bai Shu found that the Pixiu stone seemed to be missing an eyeball, and the size of the eyeball was similar to the jade bead in Bai Shu's hand.
"Could this be a mechanism?" Bai Shu didn't think much about it, and gently put the jade bead in his hand into the groove in the Pixiu stone's eye socket.
Click. The moment the jade bead was put into the groove, it was immediately stuck, as if the jade bead and the Pixiu stone statue were born together.
A pale blue light shot out from the eyes of the Pixiu stone statue, and the light shone on Bai Shu's body.
Boom, a dull sound, came from the stone wall, and after a while, the stone wall slowly opened like a gate, and the dust was flying. An entrance appeared in front of Bai Shu.
"Huh?" Bai Shu was slightly surprised, and said to himself, "There really is something else here. ”
"To enter, or not to enter?" Bai Shu pondered, he was slightly confused when he first came, many things were not clear, and a sudden entrance made him hesitate, he didn't know where the entrance led, and he didn't know if there was danger inside. He had to keep himself safe.
It's a pity that Bai Shu is an adventurous person, and he is very interested in this Vast Continent, if he can learn about some of the secrets of the Vast Continent, Bai Shu is still very willing to go.
"It's already open, don't you go in yet, anyway, you've come to the Vast Continent, and I can't turn back. Bai Shu said to himself, "It's a big deal to escape in the end." ”
Having made up his mind, Bai Shu exhaled and walked into the entrance. As soon as Bai Shu stepped into the entrance, the stone wall closed.
Listening to the sound of the stone wall closing, Bai Shu's heart throbbed.
"It seems that there is no way to go back again when you walk in this entrance. Bai Shu pondered, then smiled, "This has to go forward." ”
Behind the stone wall is a long passage. The passage is inlaid with crystal after crystal, shimmering with a faint light. This is exactly what Bai Shu had seen before.
"It seems that the previous light was emitted by these crystals, but where will this passage lead?" Bai Shu stood in place, looking at the long passage, a little at a loss.
The faint light in the passage flickered from time to time, making the dim passage even more mysterious. Time passes by drop by drop.
Bai Shu still stood in place and thought, and the quiet passage gave people an inexplicable fear. Bai Shu could hear the sound of his own breathing, which was staggered.
"Still, let's move forward. Bai Shu muttered, "After all, there is only one way forward." ”
Bai Shu finally moved his steps, slowly.
So, there was the sound of Bai Shu's footsteps in the faint light, dim, and silent passage.
Da, da, da.
Bai Shu wrapped his spiritual power all over his body, and the dust in his hand was tightly clenched. With the utmost vigilance, he is on the alert, and he must be prepared for a crisis that may come at any time.
The passage became narrower and narrower, and the light of the crystal became weaker and weaker, and Bai Shu's heart was almost up to his throat. Sweat had soaked through Bai Shu's clothes. Gradually, the passage could only be passed by one person, and gradually, only one person could pass sideways.
Finally, Bai Shu squeezed through the narrow passage, and suddenly opened up in front of him, and a locked bronze gate appeared in front of Bai Shu's eyes.
The bronze gate is engraved with four huge characters, and the comer stops. The four big characters faintly contain majestic spiritual power.
Bai Shu recognized these four words, and also felt a faint spiritual power slightly, a trace of danger fluctuating, and his brows furrowed.
"Stop?" Bai Shu thought about it, and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, "You can't retreat, you can't advance, do you want to trap me here?"
"No, I have a strong premonition that I have to move forward before I can get out of here. Bai Shu muttered to himself.
So, Bai Shu slowly walked into the locked bronze door, he wanted to see if there was a switch on the door, but Bai Shu felt as if there was a pressure coming over him, making his steps very heavy.
The closer he got to the bronze door, the more difficult Bai Shu felt, and before he could get completely close to the bronze door, Bai Shu was already out of breath. However, in the end, he also resisted the strong pressure and stood under the bronze door.
"Whew!" Bai Shu exhaled deeply, "Next, let me see if there is a mechanism on the door." ”
Bai Shu's hands had just touched the bronze door, when suddenly a loud voice came from behind the door.
"Human, stop!"
Bai Shu was shocked, and immediately released his spiritual power, and held Wuchen tightly. But he didn't retreat, because if he retreated, he would be trapped here, and if he moved forward, there was still a glimmer of hope. Therefore, Bai Shu did not retreat but advanced.
"Human, if you don't stop any longer, I will kill you on the spot. A loud voice came again.
"Then dare to ask, how do I get out?" Bai Shu did not panic, but was very flat.
"Go out, hehehe, it's ridiculous, since you've come in, just stay here, make a dry bone, turn into this crystal." A joking voice came.
Bai Shu had no way out. But he can't sit still.
Click. Bai Shu touched the switch on the bronze door, and the huge bronze door opened.
A huge stone statue appeared in front of Bai Shu, looking at the familiar stone statue, Bai Shu was shocked: "Pixiu stone statue!!"
"Human, do you know you're looking for death?" said the Pixiu stone statue with a loud sound.
"Now that I have no way out, I have to move forward, and I'm ready. Bai Shu said coldly.
"In that case, defeat me. Otherwise, you'll be buried here. The Pixiu stone statue said, and in an instant, the Pixiu stone statue became a vivid Pixiu.
Pixiu couldn't help but attack Bai Shu, the speed was very fast, and the sound of breaking the wind came from the claws, wanting to kill Bai Shu with one blow.
Bai Shu's pupils constricted, mobilized his spiritual power, ran the shadow step, and his body retreated violently, dodging Pixiu's fatal blow. At the same time, Bai Shu pulled out Wuchen and slashed at Pixiu's head with a sword.
The short wings behind Pixiu swayed, and his body was slightly on one side, and Pixiu actually used his feet to directly block Bai Shu's attack. Dustless is to sharpen iron like mud.
Bell, bell, bell.
Wuchen slashed at Pixiu's body, but it was not flesh and blood, but a stone statue.
Pixiu's feet fell, but they quickly grew back on. This made Bai Shu's heart cold.
Before Bai Shu could think about it, Pixiu attacked again, and the sharp claws slashed quickly, and Bai Shu had to block it with no dust while retreating.
Bell, bell, bell.
Pixiu doesn't know pain, doesn't know tiredness, because it's a stone statue itself, can a stone statue feel it, can it be tired? But Bai Shu is different, he is a completely real human being, he is flesh and blood, and he will be tired.
Bang.
Bai Shu finally couldn't support it, and was knocked away by Pixiu's claw, and flew out of the bronze door heavily.
"Poof. Bai Shu just felt a slight sweetness in his throat, and spit out a mouthful of blood, and immediately, his chest hurt as hotly as if it were burning.
Just when Bai Shu thought that he was going to die, because once Pixiu attacked during this period, Bai Shu would definitely not be able to resist. However, Pixiu did not attack as expected, but stood in the bronze gate, not daring to take a step out of the bronze gate.
Seeing this, Bai Shu thought for a while, and immediately smiled, "Hehe, it seems that it can't get out of the bronze gate." Then I have a chance. ”
"My strength is not as good as it, but it is just a stone statue, only brute force, and I am different, I am a living person, so I can't fight it head-to-head. Bai Shu pondered.
"That's right, Pingsha Sword Pose. Bai Shu remembered the previous Pingsha sword style, since he couldn't choose to fight hard, then the melee Wuji Fist couldn't be used, this was Bai Shu's strongest killing move.
Therefore, the Pingsha Sword Style is Bai Shu's best choice at present, but with his current strength, he can barely use Pingsha and Wind, as for the return of the wild goose, maybe he can barely use it with the Wet Water Style, but the premise is that Bai Shu is in peak state, but now, Bai Shu has been injured. Therefore, he used the most flat sand in the wind.
Without the slightest hesitation, Bai Shu first used the Wet Water Style to accurately mobilize spiritual power, and then ran the Pingsha Sword Style.
"Pingsha. Bai Shu let out a low roar, and all the remaining spiritual power exploded.
The spiritual power around his body turned into tiny sword qi, floating in the air like grains of sand.
"Tempest. Bai Shu continued to use the second form, and the spiritual power turned into sword qi again, and the sword qi rotated, gradually forming a storm.
"Go!" Bai Shu's heart moved, and the wind blew the flat sand and swept away towards Pixiu.
"Roar. Pixiu roared, using its body to block the Pingsha Sword Pose, but it subconsciously covered its eyes with its front paws. This happened to be seen by Bai Shu.
"Eyes?" Bai Shu muttered to himself, then slapped his head, "By the way, it's the missing eye." ”
"It seems that here is its weakness. Bai Shu smiled, "A person often subconsciously blocks his vital point when he is most dangerous, and it seems that this strange beast is no exception." ”
The flat sand and the wind gradually subsided, Pixiu let go of the claws that stood in front of him, Bai Shu clearly saw that Pixiu's miserable situation just now, his body was broken and broken, but it never forgot to protect its eyes.
"Strike while the iron is hot. Bai Shu said secretly in his heart.
"Pingsha. Bai Shu roared again, but Bai Shu's spiritual power at the moment was no longer enough for Bai Shu to use the Pingsha Sword Style.
But the remnants of the Pingsha sword style are still there, and Pixiu is already like the bird that frightens the bow.
The sword qi as usual did not attack, but what was waiting for was a sword that Bai Shu stabbed heavily into the eye.
With a stab, Pixiu roared, and immediately turned into a stone statue, and gradually, the jade bead fell off from the groove in his eyes and fell to the ground, and the Pixiu stone statue also turned into a streamer and disappeared.
Bai Shu picked up the jade bead, put it away, and exhaled deeply. Bai Shu sat up, recovering the spiritual power he had consumed.
Half an hour later, Bai Shu stood up and continued to walk towards the bronze door, Bai Shu came to the end, empty, only a round stone table. There was a book on the table.
Bai Shu looked at the book carefully, and his heart was suddenly shocked.
The Book of Tea
