Four hundred and seventieth chapters: life and death
Gu Xiu pinched his hands with his hands, and a magic trick hit the bronze mirror. In an instant, a light yellow light shot out from the bronze mirror. When the light shot out from the bronze mirror, although it was just a dot, when the light touched the mountain wall, it had already spread to an elliptical aperture that was two people high and two wide.
As soon as the aperture shone up the mountain wall, the mountain wall did not react at all. After two breaths, there seemed to be waves rippling in the aperture, rippling and rippling. The ripples disappeared at some point, and an oval exit was exposed on the mountain wall.
It turned out to be a tunnel inside the mountain belly.
As soon as the illusion at the entrance of the tunnel was broken, Gu Xiu and the other two heard a "rattle" sound coming from the mountain road.
"Is it raining?" Tang Ti looked at the sky in wonder. The sky seemed a little dark and quiet under the illumination of the dark-eating lamp, but it was indeed not raining.
"It's raining inside the mountain road, or the sound of water flowing from where it comes from." Gu Xiu stared at the ninth exit passage in darkness, with a look of inexplicable expression, and then looked at Xing Zhen, "This should be the road mixed with dead ends in the life sect in the mouth of fellow Taoists."&1t;i>&1t;/i>
Xing Zhen nodded and asked, "I wonder if my friends can find the other two ways to survive?"
Gu Xiu's eyes looked deep and complicated under the dim light of the dark-swallowing lamp, "Fellow Daoist Xing should have appeared."
"Of course, although this is a formation, the most difficult thing is the illusion array on the eye of the formation. Once the illusion array is broken, the entire formation will be broken by more than half. Now, I am afraid that even this little friend Tang will have two other ways of life."
Xing Zhen said and looked at Tang Ti.
Although Tang Ti thought that he was just a follower with these two seniors, the monks who could follow him to the Xiji Desert can be regarded as elite disciples of the Shangcheng City Lord's Mansion. Naturally, he would not be careless and just followed Gu Xiu and Xing Zhen silly.
Therefore, when the illusion array was broken, he did not ignore the two breathing auras that surged from around the valley.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
At this moment, when Tang Ti heard Xing Zhen’s question, he was about to nod, and a stronger sound wave came from the sky again.
Because of previous experience, the three of them reacted very quickly this time, and Tang Ti was always on guard against Xing Zhen slapping him again. After shaking away the hand that Xing Zhen put on his shoulder, he kept holding a defensive talisman in his hand, which was just in hand.
However, although he was fully prepared, not to mention that Tang Ti was injured before, the sound wave this time was even stronger than the previous one, so Tang Ti sprayed another mouthful of blood under the thunder without lightning as a sign of lightning.
Tang Ti sacrificed a long sword, held it on the ground, stabilized his body, and then calmly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, swallowing a healing pill.
Seeing Xing Zhen and Gu Xiu look at him, Tang Ti grinned, his eyes narrowed into slits, "I get used to it as I sprayed."&1t;i>&1t;/i>
Seeing that Gu Xiu looked like he was now, he was so innocent that he was a bit cute.
After recovering a little, Tang Ti pointed to the exits of the two passages and said: "In the order that Senior Gu has walked just now, the third and seventh exits are obviously the gate of life, and the breath of life in it is easy to feel."
Tang Ti said, and looked at the exit where Gu Xiu finally broke the illusion array. "In fact, although the ninth exit is a mountain road, it seems that it is still raining inside. I don't know where the rain comes from, but this should be a gate of life."
The three men carefully checked the exits three, seven and nine. As soon as they approached, they were completely different from the darkness that Gu Xiu had seen before. First, they smelled a scent of flowers, and what appeared in front of them was a small path covered with thick green grass.
An unknown light yellow flower grows between the grass. There are lights flashing between the stamens, illuminating the entire path like a green galaxy, giving a dreamy and charming feeling, making people walk forward without leaving their own way.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
However, among the three people present, they were all determined and could survive this temptation.
As for the seventh exit, it is a tree-lined avenue composed of unknown trees on both sides. The cicadas are singing in front, and the insects with fireflies are flying and rotating among the trees, reflecting the shadows of the trees.
Of course, this path seems to be a good choice.
Finally, there is the ninth exit that was revealed just after breaking the illusion array. This exit is like other dead gate exits, and it is dark.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, which path do you think we should choose?"
Xing Zhen's harsh voice rang again.
Gu Xiu shook his head and said, "It's not us, it's me, you and him, you choose your own, no matter what is ahead, you will bear the consequences."
"Okay, I'm saying it well, then I'll choose first."&1t;i>&1t;/i>
After hearing this, Xing Zhen nodded in agreement, then walked over Gu Xiu and walked directly into the mountain road where unknown rain was falling.
Gu Xiu glanced at Tang Ti. She thought Tang Ti would let her choose first, but Tang Ti did not. Instead, he followed Xing Zhen's footsteps and walked into the mountain road, "I'll choose this one too."
Then Gu Xiu walked in. She never believed that pies would fall from the sky, and the faint fragrance in the dark night was often the most deadly.
The moment I walked into the mountain path, I suddenly realized that this was not the tunnel in the abdomen of the mountain. The entire hillside had disappeared in an instant. This was clearly the combination of the third and seventh passages. There were tall and lush trees on both sides, with fireflies shining between the trees, and thick green grass under my feet, with light yellow flowers swaying in the rain.
When Gu Xiu saw this scene in front of him, his back felt cold.
She suddenly realized that this was indeed a dead end in the life gate. The life gate was the extension of the road leading to an unknown place ahead, and the dead end came from these rainwaters. As soon as Gu Xiu walked into the passage, when the first drop of rain fell on her, she realized that this was not ordinary rainwater. The rainwater was roughly the same as the heavy rain they experienced when they landed from the Western Ji Desert before. It has both corrosive effects and can also stagnate the divine breath in the cultivator's body.
Fortunately, Gu Xiu was prepared after experiencing that experience. Only the robe on her body could isolate most of the rain. The remaining few drops of rain that escaped the net were blocked by her guards with a defensive talisman.
This is a path mixed with dead ends in life. In general, the chance of living is greater than the chance of dying on this path. Of course, this is for Gu Xiu.
As for Xing Formation, the ghost fog surrounding him seemed to have thickened a little bit again. The water dripping into the ghost fog would produce a "sniff" sound, and the ghost fog would disappear a little at the sight, but it would be replenished soon next.
