Chapter 734, A First Exploration of the Ancient Building
After some corrections, there is only the last day left in the five days.No matter what kind of calculation the demons are playing, whether they will snatch it or not, they must get the power of the stars in the Guling Tower in this last day. Because when the time comes, the East Tree Continent will hold a ceremony as promised, and the new tree spirits will be awakened, and they will be teleported out of the spirit world by the purifying power of the tree spirits. The time for their actions must be before that. When they were at the gate of the city, everyone saw the shadow of Xuanwu here, and this is the far north of the spiritual world. Therefore, this must be the power of the stars of Xuanwu.
Before leaving, Ran Tianluo glanced at the corpses all over the ground with apology, shook his head and sighed, and then rushed away with Shi Yunyang's steps. The five of them walked unhurriedly on the wide stone steps, and at the end of this stone step was the ancient spirit tower suspended in the air. Thinking that after such a long journey to the spiritual realm, I finally reached my final destination. And what everyone is looking for has also been settled, everyone is a little excited, and they all stopped in front of this ancient spirit building, looking up at this lotus-like ancient building, the eaves are like flying, like the sharp points of flowers and leaves, and it seems that the fingertips are slender, and there is an unknown form of magic in the beauty.
Shi Yunyang said: "In the Vermilion Bird Tower before, we suffered a lot of losses, and this time it may be the same." All the way to today, none of us want to lose anyone, I hope you will cherish yourself. ”
Linghu Yu'er nodded and said, "I don't know what happened last time, but I have to take a good look this time." Han Lun bowed his head guiltily, still regretting the act of jumping into the fire with her in his arms. Linghu Yu'er noticed that his expression was different, so she gently held his palm and said, "Don't be careful." I know what you want. ”
Han Lun glanced at her in surprise, Ling Hu Yu'er didn't look at him, her eyes drifted to other places, she glanced at the top floor of the Guling Tower, where the area was already small, but it should be the destination of their trip. She tilted her head and wondered, "What can there be in such a small place?"
Shi Yunyang said: "Just go in and have a look, let's go." ”
A group of people really walked into the ancient spirit building, a group of people just walked in, only to hear a rumbling sound behind them, everyone was taken aback, quickly turned around, only to see a huge black boulder above the gate falling. The entire gate was sealed in an instant.
Luo Xiaocheng spread his hands helplessly and said, "Alas, it's too late to escape if you're afraid of death now." Linghu Yu'er was not afraid and said: "What's the matter, I didn't plan to go out in the first place." Han Lun pursed his lips and said, "Crow's mouth, don't talk nonsense." Linghu Yu'er was stunned, and scolded with a smile: "I didn't mean that, I mean that the five of us are indomitable, and we will never retreat." Han Lun smiled noncommittally.
Shi Yunyang looked around with a stern expression, between which was only the first floor of the Guling Tower, a square space, with a huge bronze mirror embedded in the wall, and in front of the bronze mirror there was a beautiful stone carving. The whole body is gray, but it is mighty, and the stone statue between them is very much like an adult male lion, but on its head there is a huge sharp horn, one side sharp, the other sluggish, very much like a knife blade. In addition to this sculpture on this floor, there are dense words and floral decorations on the walls, which they naturally can't understand, but because of these words, although there is only this sculpture in the whole space, it does not seem empty at all.
As soon as you enter the door, there are two more stairs leading from the corner to the second floor, and they are not closed, it seems that the interior of this ancient spirit building also needs to go up one layer at a time. Han Lun stretched out his head and looked upstairs, as if he could see the scene above. Linghu Yu'er said: "What do you do with the probe brain, since there is a road, why don't you go, I'll go ahead." With that, she walked briskly up the stairs leading to the second floor, but suddenly, Ling Hu Yu'er only felt that her feet were light, and when she looked down, where was the stairs under her feet, it was clearly a group of wriggling snakes. She was stepping on the tail of a snake at this time, and the snake was in pain, and immediately turned around and bitten, making Hu Yu'er afraid of snakes, and suddenly screamed. Too scared to move.
When Han Lun saw her stop on the wooden ladder, he looked frightened, and he knew that things were not simple. He reached out and grabbed her, and jerked her into his arms, causing Fox Yu'er to be dragged back from the steps.
"Yu'er, what's wrong with you?" asked Han Lun strangely. Ling Hu Yu'er looked frightened, buried her face tightly in his arms, and said, "Snakes, there are so many snakes! Han Lun looked at the stairs and said, "You see the dazzle, where are the snakes?"
Linghu Yu'er said: "There are really snakes." When she spoke, she still subconsciously opened her eyes and looked, only to see the black wooden ladder, where there was half a poisonous snake. Even she felt strange now.
Just when he was puzzled, Shi Yunyang suddenly shouted: "No, where do you look!" Everyone looked in the direction he knew, only to see that the only stone statue before the first layer of bronze mirrors was gone.
Shi Yunyang said: "Everyone be careful, there is fraud here, don't act rashly." The five of them stood in five directions back to back, staring intently at the things around them. But he heard Ran Qianluo say strangely: "That statue has never been moved, and there are no stairs on these two sides at all, there is no way up the stairs here, it is sealed." ”
Everyone was shocked, but when they looked around, there were clearly two stairs leading upstairs. But Ran Tingluo certainly won't lie. What she saw was different from what she made people see. What is the reason for this?
Shi Yunyang thought about it, this question is naturally not difficult, Shi Yunyang suddenly thought that Ran Tianluo did not see it with her eyes, but relied on her consciousness to identify the things around her. Human beings have five senses, eye, ear, nose, tongue, and body, which correspond to the eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and nerve touch of a person. Seeing is not necessarily believing, and hearing is not necessarily false. Many times, the five senses can deceive the human mind and lead to hallucinations. Illusion also uses this principle to change people's five senses, so as to achieve the purpose of confusion. But consciousness does not belong to the five senses, and it is extremely difficult to be deceived, so what she sees is the truth, and what they see now is just an illusion.
Shi Yunyang said: "Everyone be careful, this is an illusion, close your eyes and listen to the command of Qian Luo." ”
Everyone closed their eyes as they said, and the surroundings were suddenly dark, but a strange sound gradually spread in everyone's ears. It was a squirming sound, as if some reptile was approaching them, like a snake, and the sound was chaotic, it must have been a great number, hundreds or thousands.
Ling Hu Yu'er got goosebumps, and held Han Lun's hand tightly, clenching it tighter and tighter. Han Lun naturally heard this voice, and his heart was also furious, but he still comforted her, and his thumb stroked her knuckles, this was a small action between the two of them, no matter what the situation, this small action conveyed a meaning - with me by his side.
Linghu Yu'er's footsteps couldn't help but take two steps back, and Ran Tianluo said: "Sister, don't be afraid, this is just your illusion, there is nothing around here, believe me." Yu'er nodded, with Ran Tianluo's words, she suddenly felt a little confident in her heart.
When they were young, everyone only felt a strong coercion coming from not far away, and they only heard that a behemoth seemed to be slowly approaching, and there was a slight tremor on the ground, and the slight tremor passed through the stone slab under everyone's feet into the body, and it shook to the heart.
"Everyone in the world is a mediocre person, and they seek it all their lives, but beauty, silk and bamboo, delicacies, aromatherapy, and comfort, all people in the world can't escape the fetters of these five feelings. Therefore, all that is sought in life is to do mediocre things. I have never seen anyone who can not distinguish between the five senses, the real and the fantastic, the strange, the strange. ”
Ran Tingluo heard it, and only felt that when this voice said a word, it seemed to bring echoes several times, so after a sentence was finished, it seemed to be transmitted countless times in an echo valley.
Shi Yunyang said: "Everyone open your eyes, the enemy is coming." Everyone hurriedly opened their eyes, and saw that the stone statue was still not there, but not far in front of them was wandering a strange beast, and they saw that its skin was gray-white, and its mane on its head and neck was golden, very fluffy, like a chow chow. Its tail is shaped like a horse's tail, but it is much more numerous than a horse's tail. The sharp horns on the head are also golden yellow, and the whole body looks like a combination of a lion and a horse. Although the coercion is strong, it gives people a sense of sacredness.
Before everyone could speak, the Narui beast said, "I am a Doumu Hedgehog (xie), one of the Seven Nights of Xuanwu. On the order of Emperor Xuanwu, the first floor of the Xuanwu Building was guarded. Challenger, your arrival is predestined by God, but whether you can do it or not is up to you. ”
Shi Yunyang bowed to it and said, "To be honest, we are here to be entrusted by the great god Nuwa to find the power of the Xuanwu Constellation. Doumu Qiqi said: "I know that you are not the first people to enter this place in the past ten thousand years. Almost all the people who came here were for the power of the Xuanwu Nakshatra, but they all thought that the power of the Nakshatra would greatly increase their strength, and they immediately became greedy. But for 10,000 years, no one had ever been to the second floor. Because of their greed, they have already lost at this point in consciousness. There's no going back. ”
Shi Yunyang said: "Please rest assured, Your Excellency, we are not taking this thing for our own selfish interests, but to return a long-term peace to the human world and the spiritual world. Let the demons never be able to set foot in the pure land of the human world. ”
Doumu Qi's head bowed and said, "I was originally the most difficult part of the seven-story building, and since you were able to abandon the five senses at the beginning, I naturally don't want to embarrass you anymore." If you are able to obtain the power of Xuanwu, you must remember that the people are suffering. Go ahead. ”
After that, its figure slowly disappeared, and I saw that the bronze mirror on the wall was illusory, and then a door opened in the bronze mirror, shining with a silvery white light.
