Chapter 161: The Trap
Zhou Tong took a cursory look at the dilapidated and old mahogany staircase, lifted one foot and stepped tentatively on the first step a few times, bang, the rebound force from under the bottom of his foot showed that it was still strong. High-speed update // (update the fastest 8 degrees, he walked up the stairs with confidence, but before he could go up a few more steps, there was a sudden crackling sound, the step plate under his feet broke, and the entire calf of his left foot fell into a crack.
"Why am I so unlucky?" Zhou Tong depressedly lowered his head and looked at his feet, carefully avoiding the sharp edges of the crack, and slowly pulled his calf out of the crack.
Huh, Zhou Tong had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he felt that something was not quite right, and he couldn't mention anything wrong for a while. Test Text Watermark 2. He looked at the staircase in front of him, which was covered with a thick layer of dust, and there was a footprint on it, but the left and right feet were different. Footprints?!yes! That's right! He remembered very clearly that it was the strange old man who walked up to the second floor first, and then Uncle Xiao, but there was only one person's footprints on the steps ahead......
Just thinking of this, Zhou Tong's Adam's apple couldn't help but roll a few times, and said so...... That weird old man doesn't ...... No...... He patted his head irritably, "No matter how great Uncle Shi's skills are, if he falls into an ambush by ghosts, it will be useless for heroes! No! I have to tell him quickly." Test Text Watermark 3. Zhou Tong was about to take a big step and run up to the second floor, when he thought that the mahogany stairs were not strong enough, he quickly took a light step and walked up to the second floor. ”“
"Uncle, uncle...... Uncle Xiao, where are you?......" In the criss-crossing corridor, Zhou Tong called out to Xiao Chi?, his two eyes were busy looking for his figure, but no one answered in the empty corridor, and there was a deathly silence.
"Answer me quickly!-" Zhou Tong was restless in his heart, he didn't know if Uncle Xiao had been ambushed by ghosts at this moment. Test Text Watermark 3.
The sun had completely set in the western mountains, and it was pitch black in the inn, and I couldn't see my fingers. Zhou Tong's anxiety continued unabated, staying in this dark space made him feel an inexplicable sense of tension, since he lost the ability to protect himself, there was always a string in his heart that was tense all the time, in this strange world, he was like an ordinary person lying on a cutting board of fish meat that could be slaughtered at any time.
After shouting for a long time, there was no other response, Zhou Tong was a little tired, he squinted his eyes and tried to see the surrounding scene clearly, but in the end he was more than enough and his strength was insufficient, at this time he was like a child standing at a crossroads and getting lost, not knowing where to go. Test Text Watermark 1.
In the quiet darkness, Zhou Tong felt cold and abnormal, and he didn't know if it was the psychology or the environment was really like this. At this moment, the burden he was carrying on his shoulders fluttered restlessly again, and Zhou Tong was excited, so he quickly took off the burden and put it on the floor to untie it.
When the burden was untied, a small and sensitive black shadow jumped out from inside, climbed up and squatted along Zhou Tong's arm, "Zhou Tong, you're about to suffocate me to death! Huh? Why is it dark here? Don't even want to light a lamp?"
"This is a black shop, but my Uncle Xiao likes this atmosphere, maybe he has fallen into someone else's trap and is waiting to be slaughtered. Test Text Watermark 9. Zhou Tong became a lot more relaxed because of the presence of dandelions, and there was a little banter in his tone.
"What is a black shop? Is it a black shop if it's pitch black and not lit?" Dandelion lovingly tilted her head.
"When we find him, you'll probably know what a black shop is. Test Text Watermark 5. Zhou Tong replied.
"You mean that stinky Taoist priest has become someone else's captive?" the demon spirit rose from Zhou Tong's back like a puff of light smoke. "Zhou Tong, you seem to be scared?"
"Uh......" Zhou Tong paused slightly, and finally was unwilling to reveal his state of mind to the demon spirit, he said categorically: "No, you are wrong. ”
The demon soul was a little hesitant before noticing Zhou Tong, knowing that he was not telling the truth to himself, and he did not plan to explore further. Test Text Watermark 4. So, he changed the topic and said, "Zhou Tong, do you want to save that stinky Taoist priest?"
The demon spirit's proposal reminded Zhou Tong of Xiao Chi's safety, and replied without hesitation: "Nonsense! Of course you can be saved!"
"Zhou-Tong-!Zhou-Tong-!Come on!-Come on!Come on!Come to Uncle Shi!-"
Suddenly, Zhou Tong heard a faint voice calling his name in front of him, the voice was like nothing, which made people not really hear it, and it was a little weird in his ears, but it was a little familiar. Test Text Watermark 6. "Did you hear anyone calling me?"
"Did someone call you? Why didn't I hear me?" Dandelion shook her head.
"I haven't heard it either, you know, I'm not as good as I used to be. The demon soul sighed helplessly, "You might as well ask that dandelion beast to sniff the smell here with its nose, and maybe you can find some clues." ”
"Are you a dog?" Dandelion grinned angrily at the demon spirit, her eyes wide and growling menacingly. Test Text Watermark 3.
"Well, when I didn't say it, I really can't see that your little divine beast is really flattering to start a fire. The demon ghost teased disappreciatively.
"Dandelion, is your nose really so smart, can you help?" Zhou Tong gently stroked the back of Dandelion's neck and pleaded.
"Hey, I'm afraid of you!" Dandelion finally relented.
The dandelion concentrates on adjusting its snort, trying to sniff out the various unusual scents that lurk in the air.
Crackling...... A series of crackling sounds suddenly sounded, and the floor above the corridor in front of them was like a wave of rolling waves rushing towards Zhou Tong and them, menacing, and their intentions were not good. Test Text Watermark 4.
"Everyone be careful!" Zhou Tong and the others hurriedly dodged back and avoided its ferocious momentum in time. This piece of floor seems to be connected, and it seems to be broken, like an unstoppable evil dragon, swooping down on the place where they just stayed, it is really extremely dangerous!
Boom!----After the loud bang, a mountain of fine 'wood slag' appeared in the corridor about one meter wide, surrounded and suspended by countless dust, and for a moment, the air on the entire second floor became even more turbid.
"Dandelion, you take the lead in front, I am responsible for the aftermath, remember! The demon soul was keenly aware of the situation in front of him, and it was very unoptimistic.
Zhou Tong glanced around vigilantly, this inn that seemed to have been abandoned did not look as calm as it seemed, who was behind the sneak attack on them? Why did Uncle Xiao choose this inn to settle down? Why is there such a strange place in an ordinary town? These questions kept spinning in Zhou Tong's mind.
Dandelion turned its head slightly, and quickly ran down Zhou Tong's shoulder, and after a while, its whole body glowed with a soft blue light, and its short body became higher and larger, and it only stopped when it was about three meters long.
"Zhou Tong, remember to hide behind me. Dandelion whispered, its eyes flashing, cold light bursting, sharp eyes like knives slashing around.
