Chapter 106: The Girl in Red
Sure enough, the strange noise appeared again.
Kitano Xuan didn't use his divine sense this time, he held his breath and concentrated, moved his body slightly, and gradually approached the place where the strange sound came from. The moonlight was bright tonight, and the moonlight came through the cracks in the mountain, barely illuminating this dark and damp place.
The sound of strange noises was in his ears, and he followed the sound, but he never found anything out of the ordinary. In addition to the cool stone, there was damp earth, and there seemed to be some damp liquid on the cool stone.
No! Kitano Gen was shocked, and his eyes widened! What did he see? A moving stone?
Gen Kitano stood still, motionless. He stared at the place where the strange noise was coming from, and his face was full of shock.
It was a basketball-sized stone, with four oblong prismatic stones forming its arms, one end attached to the cobblestone, and at the end of the arms, a pair of razor-bladed claws. This claw has three fingers, it is very sharp, and with a slight wave, it can cut through the boulder in front of you, silently, very weird.
After the boulder was cut, the pair of sharp claws did not stop, and several times in a row, cubes of the same size appeared. That strange sound is the sound of these cube stones falling to the ground!
What is this? Kitano Gen was very curious, there was no record of this kind of desolate beast in the Desolate Beast Secret Classic, or was this not a desolate beast at all, but just a moving stone?
He released his divine sense, and sure enough, as soon as his divine consciousness touched the stone, the strange sound stopped, and the stone stopped moving. If you don't pay attention, you'll just think it's an ordinary stone, and you won't even think that this thing is still moving!
Kitano Xuan's divine sense swept back and forth over the stone, and found that the other party did not have any life characteristics, not even a trace of soul! This made him very strange, there was no soul, why did this stone move? Looking at the piles of cube stones behind him, the other party was clearly consciously doing this!
He withdrew his consciousness and waited in silence. This time, however, it was longer than ever. Just when Kitano Gen was about to lose his patience, the stone moved again! I saw it support the ground with its two claws, its body moved forward, moved a position, and continued to repeat Fang Cai's movements. Cut the boulder open, and then continued to swing its claws, and in the blink of an eye, there was a pile of cube stones behind it. The stones are the same size, almost identical.
Kitano Gen took a few steps forward and came to the stone, but found that the other party was ignoring him and was still busy with his own affairs. Kitano Xuan's heart moved, could it be that this stone could only sense divine consciousness? Or would it mean that once the divine consciousness touched its body, it would cause it to be harmed, so that it instinctively avoided and disguised?
His doubts became more and more numerous, and he was wondering in his heart what this moving stone was, could it be a special life?
At that moment, there was another strange noise from the front. Listening to the sound, it is clear that there are such stones doing the same thing!
He stepped over the moving stone and continued on his way. It didn't take long for a similar situation to be discovered. It's just more lively here, with five or six of these stones cutting through the boulders, and behind them are also piles of cube stones.
Kitano Xuan quietly observed these moving stones, without using his divine sense, but only with the naked eye. Didn't notice anything different. But soon he found a very special stone.
This stone has not only arms, claws, but also legs! Two long prismatic stones act as its legs, allowing it to move around calmly. Under the silent gaze of Kitano Gen, the stone lifted the cube stone and turned around and walked back. It was slow, and eerily silent.
Kitano Gen didn't move, he stood in place, silently waiting. After dozens of breaths, the limb stone reappeared, and after lifting a cube stone with both claws, he turned and walked towards the place where he had come.
Gen Kitano followed the stone, slowly walking along the narrow gap in the mountain. During this period, I encountered many moving stones, some of them cutting, some of them carrying, and each performing its own duties. Especially in the back, there are more and more such stones, and the path in front is getting wider and wider.
Suddenly, Gen Kitano stopped. He found a door, a door that opened in the mountain. It is about two meters wide and only one meter high. There was a yellowish light inside the door, which was not dazzling, but extremely soft. These strange stones came in and out of this door. Ignoring the presence of the intruder, they are still busy.
He wondered if these stones were some kind of special life, or was there something behind them? The mystery must be inside this door! He pondered for a long time, and finally made up his mind to enter this door. It's just that he is nearly 1.9 meters tall, and it is really difficult to enter this door that is only one meter high.
Gen Kitano bent down on his knees and entered the door. Everything that catches your eye is as if you have arrived in another world!
It's brightly lit and very spacious. The space covers an area of tens of thousands of square meters, dozens of zhang high, like a cube. The surrounding walls are inlaid with night pearls, and the soft light fills the entire space. The ground is busy with dense stones, and they pile up the cube stones together, as if they are building an altar!
The altar occupies most of the space, and Kitano noticed that the stones that make up the altar are very different in color except for the same size and shape. The stones at the bottom are extremely old and even show signs of weathering. The higher you go, the better the color of the stones, and at the very top, all the newly mined stones are made.
Looking at the surface of the altar, it is easy to decipher its history.
But obviously, the focus of Kitano's observation was not on this altar, but on the figure at the top of the altar.
It was a little girl, seven or eight years old, with big eyes, a small mouth, and delicate facial features, like pink carvings. Red coat, red cape. It's very conspicuous.
Kitano Xuan stared at the girl tightly, did not speak, and the look of vigilance in his eyes was very strong.
When he saw this person, he already understood that the moving stones must be controlled by this person behind them.
Who is she? Does it have anything to do with the strange snake that spreads over the mountain? Why did you build an altar here? What is the purpose of building an altar? This little girl is full of mystery, and Kitano Xuan has to be wary of it.
When Kitano Gen looked at the girl in red, the girl in red had already discovered him. Seeing that her face was full of unhappiness, she opened her mouth and asked, "Where did the wild boy come from, and he dared to break into this place?"
Kitano Xuan frowned, and instead of answering, he asked, "Who are you, why are you pretending to be a ghost here?"
"Pretending to be a ghost?" the girl in red smiled coldly and said, "You are an ignorant wild boy, and you also know that gods and ghosts know each other, so get out of here immediately." Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Kitano didn't pay any more attention to the girl, he took a few steps forward, and then spread his divine sense.
"What are you doing!" the girl in red screamed loudly, "Hugh is rude!"
Kitano Xuan retracted his divine sense, and said with a cold smile: "Sure enough, you are pretending to be a ghost! Tell me, what is your origin?"
The girl in red was furious, her hands were sealed, and the red cloak was windless. The stones that came in and out of the ground were in a commotion, gathered together one after another, and gradually piled up into one rock giant after another! These rock giants were more than twice as big as Kitano Gen? They stomped their feet, and even the ground trembled!
Kitano Gen was not afraid at all. He slammed his right foot on the ground, leaped forward, and came in front of the rock giant. The iron fist infused with millions of catties of huge strength has long been ready to go. At this time, a punch went down, only to hear a bang, and the rock giant, which seemed to be extraordinarily powerful, suddenly fell apart and turned into a pile of rubble.
Kitano Gen exerted force continuously, and several punches in succession, and the rock giants all disappeared and turned into piles of rubble.
After finishing the work, Kitano Xuan smiled faintly, looked directly at the girl in red, and said, "Say, what is your origin?"
The girl in red's methods were broken, but she did not flinch, and still said aggressively: "I'll give you one last piece of advice, get out of here immediately." Otherwise, you won't be able to walk if you want to!"
"Are you still threatening me?is it useful?" Kitano scoffed and said, "You are so strong, why don't you show your true skills?"
The girl in red screamed, "Do you dare to underestimate me? Believe it or not, now I can easily take your life with a flick of my finger?"
"I don't believe it," Kitano Gen smiled faintly and said, "I don't know what you have to rely on." But behold the altar that has not yet been erected beneath your feet. I'm guessing you've been here for hundreds of years, right? Hundreds of years, you should have succeeded in whatever you wanted to do, but now, it seems that you haven't achieved your goal. Is the time yet right, or is something wrong with you?"
