Volume 2 The Phantom Flower of the World Chapter 60 Putting Death to Death
The stone pillar on which Weaving Dream was standing at this time was very close to the ice wall, and she clearly watched as a black shadow flashed in the ice wall.
As soon as her words fell, several people behind her also stopped, staring at the ice wall with vigilance.
After a long silence, the ice wall in front of them suddenly cracked with a click, and as the crack became bigger and bigger, countless tiny ice cubes peeled off little by little, like a mirror that had been shattered, and the ice cube fragments quickly fell into the abyss under their feet, and disappeared in an instant, and they couldn't even hear the sound of landing.
Before he could exclaim the golden branch slowly revealing behind the ice wall, he heard a few violent scolds coming from the other side of the ice wall.
"You, who gave you permission to move, what if you trigger something to put us in danger?"
"I ......"
"What am I?"
"Can you ......"
"What are you!"
A familiar voice came and interrupted his aggressiveness, "Sect Master Huang, don't go too far!
"Oh, it turned out to be a protégé under the sect master of Fang!
Hearing this, Fang Xu's face became a little ugly, and the face of Fang Xu's protégé who was reprimanded also changed, he looked at Fang Xu guiltily and explained, "Sect Master...... I'm sorry, I just saw a black shadow in this ice wall and poked it with the hilt of my sword, but I didn't expect ...... "I didn't expect this poke to collapse......
It just so happened that the ice wall was almost shattered, and although the two sides were far apart, they could see the situation on the other side at a glance.
It turned out that after Fang Xu took the rest of the people to enter from the left passage, after walking that section of the road, there was only a narrow sheep intestine stone road hanging on the bottomless abyss in front of him, and there was an exceptionally thick ice wall with cold light on the right hand, faintly exuding a cold air. The trail is too narrow, even if you stand on it alone, it is a little inconvenient, not to mention the faint cold wind that keeps blowing up from the bottom of the cliff, which only makes people walk shaky, pinch a sweat, like walking in the clouds and hanging in the air, you may fall into the abyss at any time.
They were not afraid, one by one they stepped on this path with no end in sight, and they did not know whether it was the cold air emitted by the ice wall or the misty mist floating up from the abyss.
After walking for a long time, the tension dissipated a lot, a protégé mustered up the courage to start looking around, he looked at his feet, as long as he took a step in the air, he would immediately fall into the abyss and fall to pieces, he quickly withdrew his gaze in his heart, and looked at the ice wall again, there was a small black shadow flashing, he couldn't help but rub his eyes, and looked again, the black shadow moved again, out of curiosity, he used the hilt of his sword to poke the black shadow in the ice wall, as a result, this seemingly very hard ice wall, was poked by him and cracked, he happened to follow the Huang sect master nearby, and immediately pointed at him and scolded him。
Presumably along the way, these sect masters have been very aggrieved, and they took the opportunity to attack when they found the signs.
Obviously, the black shadow that this protégé saw was Weaving Dreams, and Weaving Dreams also happened to see a group of people opposite, although they were far away, and the shadows became small after being reflected by the ice wall, and only a black shadow could be seen, but it was indeed very suspicious.
The ice wall was really like a mirror, a thin layer, but it only looked thick.
However, at this time, they didn't have time to dwell on the strangeness of this ice wall, behind which was the golden tree!
Although only a single branch of the tree could be seen in the distance, it was obvious that if you continued to walk a little further, you would see the entire golden tree.
What was dizzying was that the real Golden Tree was even bigger than what they had seen in that stone chamber.
Weaving Dream stood on the stone pillar and said to the three people behind him, "I have a bad premonition. ”
Rong Lian nodded, and hugged his arms for a long time, "Although you have said this many times, it is unfortunate that I have it this time." ”
The men on both sides said hello and walked forward together, although the road seemed to have no end in sight, and the road ahead was hidden in the darkness
If it appears, but it keeps going and it comes to the end, and there is a golden tree at the end.
At the end of the rugged path of stone pillars was a clearing with a circular dome above it, like a half-shell enclosing the golden tree.
Weaving Dream stared and jumped forward onto the clearing, she breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head and beckoned to them, "It's on the ground, come here!"
When a few people stood in the clearing, the group of people on the opposite side also arrived one after another, constantly gathering in this clearing.
As soon as the fire shone in their hands, the golden tree stood quietly in front of them, and its roots were dug into the abyss, revealing only a huge canopy, reflecting the fire in their hands, dazzlingly bright.
As soon as he arrived, Rong Lian took two steps casually, then lazily leaned against the stone wall on the side, coughed twice in a low voice, and some flush climbed up his cheeks, the luck of the long time made him a little uncomfortable, although he could hold on for a long time, but his body bones were still poor, and he couldn't cough.
Weaving Dream patted him on the back, gave him relief, and told him to sit down and rest first.
Rong Lian shook his head: "It's okay, just stand." ”
Weaving Dream didn't say anything more, and walked back to Shuhua to check on their condition.
Zhu'an carefully placed Mu Feibai next to a stone, and Shuhua sat quietly aside, not caring about the golden tree at all, and didn't take another look.
Zhu'an moved his shoulders, Shuhua glanced at him, and said again, "Thank you." ”
Although Shuhua's expression and tone have not changed as before, they are still the same cold and expressionless, and the aura that is not close to gods and ghosts is still extremely powerful, but Zhu'an always feels that Shuhua has changed slightly.
Unlike the few of them who just wanted to go out early, their previous bad premonition was verified, and the eyes of the people from the family sect began to move again.
Weaving Dream looked at the familiar gaze and rubbed his eyebrows, "Brother, let's go find a way, I have a headache looking at them!"
Zhu'an nodded, and Wen Yan responded: "Okay." ”
After a few words with Shuhua, the two of them walked towards the dark place in front of them with a torch, and after walking for a while, they came to the end.
The ground at the end of the clearing beneath the curved dome was broken, and gusts of cold wind poured in from all directions, blowing the corners of their clothes.
Obviously, it is a dead end, and one step further is an abyss.
A small stone tablet was erected on the edge of the cliff, and Zhu An leaned over the torch in his hand and saw two sentences written on the stone tablet.
"Fall into the place of death and then live, put it in the place of death and survive. ”
Chai An silently recited it, "This is ...... Export?"
Weaving Dream poked his head out and looked at the bottomless abyss, "Is this the place? Do you want us to jump?"
Zhu'an's face was as warm as usual, and he looked at that sentence and muttered for a moment, affirming: "I think so." The last exit is to jump from here, put death on the ground and then live, abandon life and death, and live in death. ”
Weaving Dream nodded, "I see, this underground palace is really amazingly huge, and I don't know where I will go if I jump from here." ”
He turned to look at her, a smile on his lips, "Are you afraid?"
Weaving Dream also looked back at his gaze, and suddenly his eyebrows and eyes crooked and smiled, like the red lotus in the lotus pond blooming in the scorching summer sunset.
"Don't be afraid, if you jump, I dare to jump. ”
As long as this person is by her side, she is not afraid of the sea of swords and fire.
By the time the two of them returned to the clearing, a group of people had already begun to move, and in less than a moment they had already cut off the leaves on the golden branch in front of them with their swords.
Everyone was pinching the golden leaves in their hands, and their expressions became more and more fanatical, and they just wanted to get more!
In the open space in front of the canopy, there was originally an offering table made of golden silk nanmu, on which only a small white jade carved box was placed.
Someone ran over expectantly to pick up the jade box, opened it, and found that there were no treasures in the box, only three shriveled green plants, which were not very similar to flowers, and there was no grass like this when it was said to be grass. The man put the lid on in disappointment
A cover was thrown back, but it was intercepted by a hand reaching out.
Fang Xu opened the jade box and glanced at it, his eyes trembled, and he just said slowly: "Tyrannical Heavenly Things!"
I don't know if it's saying that this strange thing has to be packed in such an expensive jade box, and this jade box is probably worth much more than this thing!
After Fang Xu saw it, he threw his hand to the side with an indifferent face, snapped, and gently fell in front of Rong Lian, the lid of the jade box was broken open, and the three green plants rolled to the side, lifeless and decadent.
Rong Lian was alarmed by the sound, opened his half-closed eyes, glanced lazily, reached out and picked up the three shriveled and green things, held them in his hands and looked at them for a long time, his eyes didn't know where he had drifted, as if he sighed, and whispered: "The thin shadow is shining in the spring water, Qing must pity me and I pity Qing." ”
The voice was so low that no one noticed.
The two walked back to them and told them about the results of the inspection, and they had no objections and were ready to leave together.
After thinking about it, Zhu'an walked over to the red-eyed crowd and stood still, and asked gently, "We have found our way back, do you want to go back with us?"
No one bothered to pay attention to him, and the golden leaves on the branch closest to them had all been snatched away, but they were far from satisfied, far from enough! Some people began to try to reach the leaves behind, but the golden tree only showed a little, and more huge trees were still hidden in the endless abyss, and if you wanted to get them, you had to climb down the trunk to the abyss, which was tantamount to taking millet from the fire, and it would fall at any time.
They had been carried away by such a great treasure, and their fanaticism was undiminished, and they scrambled to climb up the tree, but the bare golden trunk was too smooth to support it, and the first person to climb up fell in full view.
"Ahh
A heart-rending scream came from beneath the abyss, like the roar of a demon who had fallen into hell.
The crowd was stunned for a moment, but greed is a big taboo, and after being frightened for a short time, there are still people crawling forward one after another, and the appearance is no different from crazy.
Zhu An asked patiently again, Fang Xu sighed, walked to his side, and under his leadership, more than twenty protégés also came over hesitantly.
Zhu'an asked one last time, but there were still very few people who were willing to give up, so Zhu'an turned around and left with them.
He sighed as he left, and the last sentence seemed to disperse in the greedy air with a sigh.
"Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, why force it?"
The moonlight quietly shrouded the Phantom Lake City, the pontoon bridge on the twenty-four rivers was gone, the bustling people came and went during the day, the night breeze gently blew by, the boats at the ferry swayed gently in the water, and the reflection of the moon plate crushed a gentle summer in the water.
A few fireflies perched quietly on the dense aquatic plants at the water's edge, and the fluorescence of their tails flickered and dimmed, matching with the stars in the sky, dotting the dreams of the whole city.
A herring fish jumped up from the water, disturbing a few fireflies in a panic, flapping their wings and flying over the noisy long street, the incense candles at the entrance of the water temple were particularly soft and hazy in the night.
A large number of incense sticks in the incense burner in the temple are still burning, and the ethereal smoke slowly drifts into the night. The wooden door of the main hall was wide open, and there were several kneeling futons in the eye, and the eyebrows and eyes of the statue of the water god in the smoke became more and more compassionate.
Suddenly, there were two strange muffled noises in the hall, as if something had been smashed and cracked, and a moment later a slender hand poked out from behind the idol.
"Huh, we seem to be out!"
The cracking sound rang out again, and the crack behind the idol was smashed off again, and when the gap widened, the hands clinging to the idol and drilled out, revealing a corner of red clothes.
"This ...... Isn't that the temple of water?"
Weaving Dream came out and was shocked when he saw the place he had visited, and turned back to the smashed hole and shouted, "Come out quickly!
They actually went back to the water temple!
