Episode 28: Black Prison (1)
Li Yichen stood in front of the forgotten door, stretched out his hand and nudged it, and the stone door that looked extremely heavy was actually opened. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
When the door opened, the fishy wind blew on his face, and Li Yichen wanted to gag. He resisted the surging in his throat and raised the Scorching Sun Sword in his hand, and the things in front of him became clear.
"Who??"
Before Li Yichen could see anything, the sharp sword blade mixed with the violent aura rushed towards him. In this pitch black environment, the sudden sound of people is more terrifying than anything else. Li Yichen was so frightened that he retreated again and again, slipped and fell on his feet.
This fall just allowed the sword blade to pass over his head, and the sword blade was too fast, and Li Yichen fell to avoid it, and he also cut off a few strands of hair.
A man in Tsing Yi rushed out of the forgotten door, the long sword in his hand pointed at Li Yichen from afar, and he relaxed a little when he saw Li Yichen's face clearly.
Li Yichen propped himself up and looked up, only to find that the man in Tsing Yi in front of him had a scruffy beard, the clothes on his body were all worn, and the remnants of the broken flesh at the corners of his mouth did not come from nowhere.
"Who are you?" Li Yichen propped himself up and asked, this person shot indiscriminately, almost killing himself, "Hero, the habit of hurting people when you shoot is really bad." If I'm unlucky, you're going to have my head cut off just now. ”
The man in Tsing Yi didn't answer, he looked at Li Yichen as if he saw a treasure: "It's actually a person! ”
"Of course it's a human, otherwise it's still a ghost!" Li Yichen stood up and scolded angrily, "It's really rude." ”
The man in Tsing Yi smiled and said, "I have been in the black prison for nearly three years, and you are the first person I have seen in these three years! So he was a little ruthless just now, and I ask my brother to forgive me. ”
Hearing the other party's words made Li Yichen interested: "You have actually been in for three years?! Could it be that you are also here to wake up." ”
The man nodded, and then sighed: "I knew that the black prison was like this, I wouldn't have come in if I was killed, but now that the Dao pulse is not awake, I will be trapped in it forever." When my Dao veins disappear, maybe my soul will be gone. ”
The man in Tsing Yi said as he spoke, his face a little gloomy. He then asked, "You're here too?"
"That's right, I'm here to wake up, too. ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, being able to enter the black prison was naturally to awaken the Dao vein, but these words were a bit redundant.
The man in Tsing Yi looked Li Yichen up and down and asked, "I'm not afraid of being surprised by my brother, I just saw your skills, and it seems that my martial arts are not very good..."
"So what..."Li Yichen stretched his neck and said toughly, "The Dao vein is not related to martial arts. ”
"Haha, that's true. The man in Tsing Yi looked a little excited, maybe it was a blessing to meet someone to talk to in such a dark environment, "Dare to be a brother's name?" ”
If Li Yichen was still in front of the Liuyun List at this time, he would definitely be able to see the word Xin Chen hanging high, he was the third monk in the Liuyun List. But now, Li Yichen didn't know the name of the person in front of him, he arched his hand and said, "My name is Li Yichen." ”
"Yichen? It's a bit free-spirited. Xin Chen smiled slightly, "I'm not afraid of brothers' jokes, I've been exploring in this pitch black for three years, and I haven't found anything, I've been in the left door, the middle door, and the right door." There is a stone tablet in each door, and nothing else. ”
"What?" Li Yichen was a little surprised, "Nothing in three years?" He thought that the autumn exam was approaching, and he only had a few days, and if he waited for himself to go out at Xin Chen's speed, he didn't know how many years it would take.
"That's right..."Xin Chen was a little embarrassed by Li Yichen's question.
Li Yichen forcibly suppressed the worries in his heart and continued to ask, "Do you charge tickets for entering these doors?"
"Tickets?" Xin Chen was a little puzzled, "What tickets?"
Li Yichen pointed to the ancient seal on the door and said: "The first door says forget words, the second door says lose heart, and the third door is scattered souls. I thought that entering the door would cost the cultivator something, but now it doesn't seem to be the case. ”
Xin Chen suddenly hugged Li Yichen's shoulders: "Brother, your knowledge is so vast that you even know the ancient seal." ”
Li Yichen was frightened by his sudden movements, and said stupidly: "I know a little bit about it." ”
"Great. Xin Chen knew that he was a little out of shape, and let go of his hand, "There are also some strange lines on the stone tablet there. I fumbled with my hands, but I couldn't get the point. Now that I see that your sword can leak light, you can find out with me. ”
Xin Chen had been trapped in this black prison for three years, and now he was a little too excited when he saw a cultivator with vast knowledge, how could he not ignite the idea of awakening and breaking through.
"Let's go and have a look!" Xin Chen pointed to the three doorways.
Li Yichen thought about it, the Xin Chen's martial arts and Dao cultivation in front of him were much stronger than his own, and he had been in the black prison for a few years, and the environment must be extremely familiar, and the two of them could not give it a try, if they were lucky, they might be able to do it in three days. So he said, "Okay, let's go and have a look." ”
After the two finished speaking, they pushed open the stone door of forgetting words one after the other and walked in.
In the Forgetting Words, the fishy smell has not decayed, and the perennial closure has made the air inside extremely uncirculating, and the accumulation of cultivators' excrement before and after will inevitably make the stench abnormal.
Xin Chen had long been accustomed to living in this environment, and his face was as usual, but Li Yichen was so smoked that he didn't dare to come out. He raised the Scorching Sun Sword in his hand, and a faint yellow halo lit up, dispelling the foul smell in the air around him.
Xin Chen was extremely interested in the Scorching Sun Sword in Li Yichen's hand, and asked, "Brother, what kind of weapon does this look very powerful, it is many times stronger than this one in my hand, but it is a little uglier." ”
Li Yichen said proudly: "My sword was bought for a million taels of silver, how can you compare it." ”
Xin Chen licked his lips when he heard this: "Although our Luoshui Xin family has a lot of money, we won't spend so much money to buy such an ugly sword, but now it seems that you earned it." ”
"That's nature. Li Yichen said loudly, "I still bought it with a loan." ”
Xin Chen stopped answering when he heard this, and pointed to a black shadow in front of him and said, "Look, that's the stone tablet in this door." ”
Li Yichen approached and raised the Scorching Sun Sword in his hand, and a faint yellow light illuminated the inscription.
The dense lines are irregularly outlined on the stele, and it looks as if it was dug by a person with sharp claws.
"This is not an ancient text..."Rao is Li Yichen has read more than 10,000 volumes, and he is not sure which ancient text it comes from, because these are all chaotic lines, "However, these lines seem to give birth to some kind of law." ”
"Regularity?" Xin Chen pondered for a moment, "I do know that the lines on this stele can trigger certain things, such as..."
Xin Chen said as he moved his hand along the lines on the inscription.
Suddenly there was a loud sound in the dark secret room, "Boom....", the lines on the stele emitted a pale blue light and projected on the surrounding walls, I don't know what kind of message these lines hid.
"This is...," Li Yichen mused, "we should associate this with the awakening pulse and the prompt on the door." ”
"That's true, but forgive me for being stupid, I really can't think of a connection. Forgetting words, what exactly is forgetting words. Xin Chen didn't dislike the dust on the ground, so he sat down and leaned on the stone tablet in thought.
Li Yichen looked at the lines on the stone tablet, and also frowned, what did these messy things mean, and what were the triggered sounds?
Li Yichen touched the lines on the stone tablet, and a cold chill passed from his fingers, as if telling a story. The finger continued to follow the line and finally encountered a breakpoint, which was followed by a new line beginning.
At this moment, Xin Chen's eyes suddenly opened: "I thought of it, it may be so!"
Before Li Yichen could ask in detail, Xin Chen suddenly ran to the stele, and his hands kept carving on the lines of the stele. The rumbling sound reminds me that unlike the previous one, this time it goes from slow to fast as if composing a piece of music.
"What is it?" asked Li Yichen.
Xin Chen's hand was getting faster and faster, and when he heard the change in the abnormal noise, he affirmed his judgment even more and said excitedly: "Take apart the two strokes of the word Forget and look for these lines in order until you form the two words Forget Words!"
"Is it that simple?" Li Yichen was a little incredulous, but the increasingly thick blue light around him told him that Xin Chen's inference didn't seem to be wrong.
After three or five breaths, Xin Chen's technique was too fast to see clearly, and he carved the words on the stone tablet over and over again. The roar around the stele grew thicker, threatening to shatter the eardrums.
"Hum..."
Suddenly, a different sound sounded, Li Yichen was like thunder, and the piercing roar was like a wireless loop instantly poured into his ears. An extremely strong tremor suddenly erupted in the soul lake in Li Yichen's mind, and the villain who resembled Li Yichen began to dance frantically with swordsmanship.
The soul lake trembled, and Li Yichen lost control of his body, and his eyes, ears, eyes, and hands senses were completely lost. But Xin Chen still danced like a mad demon, and the lines on the stone tablet became deeper and deeper, like a black hole that took people's hearts.
The abrupt and deep ancient bell rang, and Li Yichen's soul seemed to be awakened. Xin Chen's hand finally hung down weakly, and his eyes turned pitch black, as if they had never met with daylight. This hero, who has been locked in a black prison for three years, now wants to wake up and get out more than anyone else.
The lines in the stele are connected piece by piece, and the break point in the middle begins to connect continuously, and then turns into two huge characters - forgetting words.
Countless ancient breaths emanated from the two words of forgetfulness, and the layers were endless. The two people in front of them were their exits, and the dark blue aura continued to penetrate into Li Yichen and Xin Chen's bodies.
Li Yichen lost all his senses, and only felt that the world was spinning and there was nowhere to stand.
