12. Laughing and snatching the soul
Shen Zhou's cry was really desolate, like a ghost, everyone in the stone room looked around, and there was silence all around, and when he was stunned, Gui Yanran raised his head and shouted: "There is an enemy coming!
Everyone looked around in a hurry, and after a while, they heard the sound of rustling and ticking from inside the stone wall, as if a wild beast was climbing in the thick stone wall. The group of heroes became nervous, took out their blades one after another, and sweated in their palms.
The people present at this time are all heroic wanderers who are accustomed to seeing the scenes of life and death, and they are not afraid of life and death, but they are in the dark, and it is difficult to distinguish between friends and foes around them, and they have both the hope of survival and the risk of destruction. Therefore, everyone in Xiaoyao Palace gathered together, waiting for the battle, the monks of Shaolin Emei gathered together, and they were strictly vigilant, and the rest of the people also formed a formation and were careful to beware.
Suddenly, the stone walls on both sides rose, and several black shadows flashed, letting out a tiger roar, coming extremely fast, and rushing into the crowd. Everyone shouted and shouted, dancing their blades, swords flashing, and tigers and tigers were in the wind. There were more and more of those monsters, and it didn't take long for them to fill the stone room, separating the Xiaoyao Palace and the others from the crowd.
Goshawk is the best at observing the battle situation, and his mind is racing, thinking: "These monsters are well-trained, and they deliberately make everyone fight separately. They didn't rush to kill people first, let alone talk to us, but blocked the sight and passage first, could it be that the mastermind behind the scenes wanted to lead us somewhere?"
The stone wall made another clanging sound, and a stone wall poked out from both sides, booming, crashing together, isolating everyone in the Xiaoyao Palace. Zhang Axe Mountain scolded and rushed to the stone wall, only to vaguely hear the soldiers on the opposite side screaming fiercely. But the stone wall was too heavy to have explosives and it was difficult to open the way.
Gui Yanran heard that there was someone behind him, and immediately looked at it, and shimmered by the torch. I saw a small door in the distance, and there was a figure in front of the small door, the figure was dismantled, and the figure was exquisite, obviously a woman.
Shen Zhou couldn't see the person's face clearly, but he couldn't help but tremble, and said loudly: "Ke'er? Ke'er? But you?"
The woman sneered and said, "If you want to see that woman, come with me!" If the footsteps are absent, they will walk away in an instant.
Goshawk said: "He said that woman, I don't know if it's Na Ke'er or Han Fei's sister." ”
Gui Yanran said: "No matter who it is, we can only keep up." Keep up close, and don't stay away. ”
Li Ruolan was secretly amused, thinking, "Brother Yan Ran is becoming more and more like the sect leader." Holding Gui Yanran's hand, both of them were warm in their hearts, and they were not afraid at all. Walk forward.
The goshawk opened the way ahead, and behind the door was a long corridor, like a tomb road, diagonally down. At first glance, it seems unremarkable, and there are no traps around, but the more prosaic it is, the more suspicious it is. The greater the harm, the goshawk transported the maggot and fly corpse sea sword to the extreme, not letting go of the slightest sign. Therefore, the group did not go fast, and after two hours, it came to an end.
In front of it is a lobby-like cave, with dozens of large sculptures on the east and west sides of the cave, about a foot high, of samurai in armor, and a flat and smooth stone wall in the innermost part, and a relief of a woman in a cloak carved on the stone wall. And the woman who had led the way before was gone.
The relief is completely different from the previous one, the woman is tied to a wooden pillar, there is a flame beside her, and the sound of water is faintly heard behind this stone wall, but I am afraid that there is still a wide place to go. Someone else inscribed: "Xuanye seals the demon here." ”
Everyone was shocked, and said, "What do you mean by this? Has the Night Demon God ever been here?"
Goshawk said, "I couldn't understand the meaning. This lifeless place, where there must have been demons, was then run by someone, burned the monster, and then locked it behind a stone wall. He walked a little in front of the stone wall with a torch, and found a small hole in the side......
Zhang Axe Mountain immediately came to his senses and said, "The woman who led the way earlier may have gone behind the stone wall. We have to open this stone wall before we can pass it. ”
Li Ruolan looked at the stone wall from top to bottom, frowned, and said: "This stone is only afraid of weighing 100,000 catties, even if we go into battle together, we will definitely not be able to push it." It's better to follow the woman's example, dig a small hole, and drill through it. ”
Soul snatcher smiled: "Lan'er, my stupid niece, not to mention that we didn't have explosives and couldn't open a hole, so we drilled through, and the enemy was plotting at the other end, it was a turtle in an urn, and we could catch it." If you want to save people, you have to go through the main gate. ”
Gui Yanran said "Huh", approached the left side of the stone wall, only to see someone draw an upward arrow with a sharp weapon, and the goshawk said strangely: "What's strange about this?" Performing the gecko swimming wall, he climbed to the top of the stone wall, stretched out his hand and groped for a while, touched a stone slab, and said loudly: "There is!" turned over and put the stone slab under the firelight.
I saw that the stone slab wrote: "The demon in the wall has slept and should have been sealed to prevent future troubles, but the world is mysterious and unpredictable." Yu has a sense of staying in this Xuanmen and keeps channeling. If you want to move forward, you should look for the successor of the Xuanye Demon Gong and open it with the corresponding secret technique, and the method is as follows: "The method of opening the door is described below.
Goshawk smiled: "Yan Ran, it seems that if you want to open the stone wall, you have to use your Xuanye Demon Suppression Skill." He went under the relief, and saw two more sparks like palm prints in the flames at the foot of the relief. This method is quite similar to the Yucheng Imperial Palace of the Barbarian King, and the meaning recorded on the stone slab is: as long as Gui Yanran slowly injects internal force for two hours, the stone wall will be opened.
Gui Yanran was eager to save people's hearts, took a step forward, put his palm on the stone wall, and pushed it inward according to the experience contained in the stone slab, and the stone wall suddenly lit up with a faint light, spreading out to both sides, as if unveiling the light gauze curtain. Hearing another roaring sound, the giant stone statues on both sides moved slowly, moved half a step forward, and held the blade in the air in his hand. When everyone saw it, they exclaimed, and Li Ruolan shouted: "Brother Yan Ran, you stop first, there is a mechanism in it!"
Gui Yanran couldn't let go of his internal strength, and said hurriedly: "This stone wall has sucked my palm, it's hard to ride a tiger, and I can't stop now!" Zhang Axe Mountain hurriedly said: "Look at what else is said on the stone slab?"
The goshawk turned over the stone slab, and sure enough, there was a text, reading: "When the gong is moving, the organ is active, the guards are waiting, and then they set off to kill the enemy." It is necessary to hold the golden Zen staff and tap the samurai to stop his line and resolve the danger. If there is no golden Zen staff, it can be taken from the altar of the secret path in the west. ”
Zhang Axe Mountain looked at those statues, his eyes were quite jealous, and said, "It seems that as long as we deliberately open the stone wall, the guards will wait for a while, and they will kill them." And on the west side of this hall, there is a secret altar with a golden Zen staff in it, which can stop the guards. ”
As the wife of the sect leader, she is naturally familiar with all the treasures in the Xiaoyao Palace, she said: "In the past, the sect leader of the Xiaoyao Palace did have a golden Zen staff, which was a token of the sect leader, but it fell off the cliff more than a hundred years ago and was lost. ”
The cave was very empty, and the goshawk walked far to the west, and sure enough, a small door appeared in the wall, which could be passed by one person. He didn't notice it when he inspected it before, thinking that it was only revealed after returning to Yan Ran's luck. Goshawk thought secretly: "Although Xuanye's grandson has a lot of words, there are a lot of tricks. He turned around and shouted, "You guard Yan Ran, in case those stone statues really do it, and wait for me to go in and find the golden Zen staff!"
Zhang Axe Mountain nodded and said, "Go and come back quickly, these stone statues are only afraid of being very tight." Although his palms have the power of opening a stele and cracking stones, he thinks of the ferocious Nabarian King a few years ago, and he inevitably has a kinship. It was a rare defeat in his life, and he is still deeply ashamed. These stone statues are just controlled by the mechanism, and their actions are stiff and simple, and they are certainly not as powerful as the barbarian king, but the power of the mechanism is far beyond the reach of manpower, and the strength of the thousands of catties is smashed down with a sword, but I am afraid that it will not be easy to resist.
The goshawk did not dare to delay, and with a short body, he got into the stone gate, ran a meal, passed through several stone rooms, and came to the end, and sure enough, he saw an altar in front of him, and there was a three-foot-long Zen staff on the altar, which emitted golden light on its own. Seeing that this matter was too easy, he didn't dare to slack off, judged the situation, observed the surroundings, and did not step forward for a while.
At this moment, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, and the goshawk turned around and drew his sword, only to see the Soul Reaver walking towards him.
Seeing the goshawk's expression solemnly nervous, Soul Snatcher chuckled lightly and said, "Nephew Pengyuan, I don't worry that you are here alone, so I came to see you." ”
Goshawk smiled slightly and said, "There's nothing difficult about it, you don't have to worry about Aunt Hua, aunt please go back, it's a gesture." ”
Soul snatcher took a step closer and said angrily: "You are so cold, why do you want to refuse people thousands of miles away? I asked you earlier to borrow a sword, but you didn't agree, and now you want to be close to you, and you are so unkind?"
Seeing her eyes flickering, the goshawk obviously had a plan, shook his head and said, "Since this is the case, Aunt Hua will go and get the golden Zen staff, and the little nephew will guard it." As he spoke, he took a big step back, letting go of the old way, allowing the soul to pass through, and the meaning of evasion was obvious.
An angry look gradually appeared on the face of the soul snatcher, and he walked straight towards the goshawk, his eyes were fierce, and he no longer concealed his killing intent. She sneered, "Okay, you clever ghost, how do you know I'm going to deal with you?"
The goshawk's long sword stabbed, and the sword qi rushed forward, landing in front of the soul snatcher, and the soul snatcher could only stop. Goshawk said: "Lady Soul Snatcher, I haven't seen you for a long time, your appearance is very different, I almost don't recognize you." ”
Suddenly, the Soul Snatcher screamed in exclamation, her expression was extremely sad, and she said angrily, "How do you know?"
Goshawk said, "Although your appearance has changed, I have seen some flaws. There are not many people in the world who are so enthusiastic about corpses. ”
Soul Snatcher shook his clothes and said sharply, "Do you know why I want to kill you?"
Goshawk said angrily: "You man-eating monster, if you want to kill someone, what reason do you need?"
Soul snatcher said loudly: "Goshawk! You are the goshawk! I heard that you raped my daughter! and harmed her life, I will not break you into ten thousand pieces, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart!" )
