Chapter 18: Take you to the pit
Strange things happened again, the dark cloud sword array had obviously been activated, the dark clouds were rolling, and the wind was loud, but the thousands of long swords hanging in the air did not rush down, but all of them were shaking, and there seemed to be an invisible pressure that made these thousands of swords bend slightly. It seems to be full of fear or ------ surrender.
Everyone was dumbfounded, and in the stunned gaze of everyone, the old man with open teeth slowly walked to the edge of the sinkhole step by step, jumped down slightly, and then stepped on the pit wall, and walked away briskly.
The old man walked with great ease, but he didn't know that after he left, there were great fluctuations on it.
First, the Taiping Dao gang had two strange things in a row, and they were greatly annoyed, so the elders went out and increased the strength level of the sword array.
Instead, the dark cloud sword formation seemed to have eased up because of the departure of the old man with open teeth, and his combat power skyrocketed, which meant to take out anger on the people behind him.
Therefore, the people who challenged again in the future were miserable, and countless people were inexplicably killed on the edge of the sinkhole.
There are only a few dozen people who can really go down to the pit with their ability, including the innkeeper who came quietly.
The old man slid down quickly, and when he saw the big rock, he jumped over. The further down it goes, the weaker the light becomes, and finally, when it goes down to dozens of zhang, there is basically no light.
The old man lit the torch he had prepared and walked down. At this time, I found that this pit is not purely downward, but has an oblique angle to the distance in the middle, and the angle is getting bigger and bigger.
On a large raised stone, Tang Xunzhou, Lu Jian and the girl were waiting for the old man with open teeth, and when they saw the old man coming relaxed, the three of them relaxed.
The old man looked at Lu Pressure and quipped: "Little fat man, it's not fun to jump into the pit."
Lu Jian still had excitement on his face, and said: "At first, the momentum of the sword formation startled me, and then it kept jumping downward, you said it was so funny." ”
The old man laughed, patted Lu Zhuan's shoulder, and said with satisfaction: "This is the rivers and lakes, full of dangers and surprises, let's go, I hope there are bigger surprises waiting for us inside." ”
The four of them walked side by side very tacitly.
I don't know how long I went down in the dark, but the inclined pit finally came to an end, not downward, but flat.
After walking straight for a while, as if passing through a corridor, the eyes suddenly widened, and there was light everywhere, and the illuminated underground was unusually bright. It seems to have entered an underground world, and the upward dome is more than a dozen feet high, as far as the eye can see, like a huge square, with pavilions and pavilions in the distance, faintly wrong.
The four of them stopped and looked around, and as their eyes slowly adjusted, they could see that the reason why this place was so bright was because the four walls of the entire underground cavity were dotted with glowing stones, and they didn't know if they were embedded in them or natural ore.
Huge square, paved with large, flat white stones.
The four of them looked at the empty square, there was nothing special, and they walked together towards the palace in the distance.
After walking for a while, I saw the huge walls of the palace. The wall is very high, so when you get closer, you can only see the tops of some of the buildings that are exposed behind the wall.
The old man with a tooth saw that the wall was about 200 zhang long, and in the center of the wall, there were two huge red gates, which were tightly closed.
Standing under the door, the man looked unusually small. After all, Lu Jian and the girl were young, and they were a little tired after walking this way. Lu Jian sat on the ground and looked up at the tall giant gate.
At this time, from the farthest end of the wall, three people slowly walked over, and it was the three heroes of the wind and dust who came down first.
The bearded man arched his hand towards the old man with open teeth, and said loudly: "The old man is fast enough, he must also be a master, haha, disrespectful"
The old man patted the thick wall and said, "A few of you must have already explored it, but there is a way to enter the door." ”
The bearded man shook his head and sighed: "I don't know when the palace was built, we walked back and forth along the wall, and we didn't see any other places to enter, and there is a ban here, that is, we can't fly, and we can't climb through the wall, it seems that we can only find a way from the gate." ”
The old man sighed, and walked over to the two huge doors, tapping lightly. With the slapping, there is a muffled popping sound, indicating that the two doors should be very thick.
Just when a few people were studying and thinking about how to open the door, one after another, those heroes from all walks of life who had broken through the sword array also gathered in the square.
The innkeeper's maiden was also standing in the middle of the crowd. The Taiping Dao people appeared last, a total of 5 elders and 10 gangsters surrounded a teenager. The black-bearded old man was among them.
In front of the gate of the square, these dozens of people who passed through the gate were all sitting in a group, all thinking about how to open the gate and enter it. From time to time, some people tried to push the gate harder, and tried to climb the wall with rope hooks, but all of them failed, and the whole palace seemed to have a protective shield that would bounce off if they tried to enter.
Just when everyone was thinking hard about countermeasures, an irritable voice sounded: "Grandma, uncle still doesn't believe that he can't open such a door." ”
As he spoke, a person walked out of the crowd, with a big red shirt, short hair and eyebrows, this person should be a sword cultivator, and I saw that he was holding a blood-red long sword, revealing a faint bloody aura.
I saw this person walk to the gate, stand with his sword up, chant a spell at the gate, and then, shouting: "Tear!" The blood-colored sword in his hand flew out of his hand, turning into a rolling wave of blood, converging into a roaring blood-colored wolf head, and slammed into the gate fiercely.
Seeing the blood-colored wolf's head hit the gate headlong, this is, only to hear a roar, and then, the white transparent curtain wall in front of the gate fluctuated, watching the curtain wall shrink backwards, and then bounce forward.
But seeing that the blood-colored wolf's head let out a wail, as if it had been thrown back vigorously, more violently than castration, and suddenly smashed on the chest of the red-clothed man who was in a daze, the red-clothed man screamed, seeing that the blood-colored wolf's head actually passed through his body, and turned into a long sword, he grabbed the hilt of the sword tightly, his eyes were wide, full of shock and fear. Then he slowly lay down and was silent.
The people in the square watched this scene in shock, and immediately someone stopped the companion who also wanted to make a move just now.
It seems that this gate has a strong counterattack ability, and it can't be forcibly attacked, everyone is a little worried, and they can't get around, and they can't attack it, what can I do.
At this time, the innkeeper's lady slowly walked to the old man's side and said softly: "According to my observation and the records in the previous books, this underground palace should be opened at a specific time. ”
