Chapter 1227 knocking on the door(1/2)
A group of eight people flew forward for half a day. For fear of disturbing the ferocious beasts on the sand dunes, they did not dare to make too much noise, so the flying speed was not too fast, but not too slow. After all, they were all from the Star Realm.
Cultivation.
They flew forward for eight to nine hundred miles in half a day, but found nothing special and there was still no end in sight.
Worried about danger after nightfall, they did not dare to explore further, but turned around early and turned back.
Night fell again, and strong winds blew again on the Huangsha Ancient Road.
The wind direction was completely opposite to that of last night, just like the wind that blew last night was blown back tonight.
But the sound of the wind did not last all night, but stopped in the second half of the night.
"Hello!"
"Come and listen!"
In the main hall where Yuan Taiping was, a cultivator on night duty suddenly lowered his voice and shouted to the people resting in the main hall.
There were more than 300 people living in their main hall, and they were worried about emergencies at night, so they arranged for people to stay vigil in groups of five, rotating in two shifts at night.
The man shouted and pointed at the stone door. The other four people were putting their ears against the stone door, as if they heard some strange movement outside.
Yuan Taiping remained alert and opened his eyes immediately after hearing the sound.
Most of the cultivators in the main hall woke up alertly, but only a few with big hearts were still sleeping soundly.
Qin Rulan did not wake up because Yuan Taiping specially placed a soundproof barrier outside the tent in order to let her sleep peacefully, so the tent was very quiet.
"Stay here and don't move."
Yuan Taiping gave instructions to the three beasts, then stood up and walked towards the stone door.
"Shh!"
"Listen carefully, there are footsteps outside."
The cultivator on night duty made a silencing gesture to the people approaching.
When everyone heard the words, they immediately stopped talking, or came forward and put their ears to the stone door, or got close to the stone door and listened.
Cha… Cha… Cha…
Sure enough, as the cultivator on duty said, I heard rustling footsteps.
The footsteps sound very light, but in fact they are not, because the stone door is three feet thick and is very well sealed. The fact that the footsteps can be transmitted through such a thick stone door means that the footsteps are very heavy.
"It sounded like human footsteps."
"Did the people in the other temples hear the wind stop and open the doors to go out?"
"Is there any good opportunity? Open the door and take a look." One person shouted with his eyes shining brightly.
The person next to me said angrily: "Shut up, who dares to go out in the middle of the night? Do you dare to give you ten courages?"
The man laughed dryly and scratched his head.
"Who could that be? Apart from us, is there someone else here? Or is there someone else coming in from outside?"
"It might be a vicious beast, so it's better not to open the door."
Everyone was standing behind the door, speculating and discussing. They were alert and afraid of unknown dangers, so they didn't dare to open the door rashly.
"Shh!"
"Listen, footsteps are coming towards us."
Yuan Taiping made a silent gesture and said.
He had good ears, and even without putting his ear against the stone door, he accurately captured the changes in the footsteps outside the door.
Everyone immediately fell silent after hearing this.
Chachacha...
As Yuan Taiping said, the footsteps were approaching step by step, and it sounded like they were walking directly towards the stone door. "Coming, coming."
"I wonder if it's a human or a ghost?"
Gulu!
Hearing the footsteps approaching quickly, some people began to swallow in fear. The danger last night left a serious shadow in their hearts, making them full of fear of the dark night here.
The footsteps stopped in front of the door, and then there was a rapid knock on the door, which shocked everyone's heart.
Bang bang bang!
"Open the door!"
"Who is outside the door?"
A bold cultivator asked aloud.
"it's me."
Someone outside the door answered.
call…
When everyone heard the voice of someone outside the door, their tense nerves suddenly relaxed.
"Dry!"
"Who are you? Why are you wandering around outside in the middle of the night if you don't sleep?!"
"Damn it, we were so scared that we thought it was haunted."
Everyone yelled and cursed in dissatisfaction.
Bang bang bang!
"Open the door!"
The person outside the door did not answer everyone's questions, but instead knocked on the door again. This time, he was afraid that the force of the blow would be so strong that the sand on the stone door would fall.
"grass!"
"What a bastard!"
The loud knocking on the door startled several cultivators who were close to the stone door.
"Open the door and let him in. I will roar in his ears and deafen him!"
someone shouted angrily.
"Don't open it!" Yuan Taiping stopped the person who wanted to open the door and said, "Ask him who he is."
"Hey, who are you? Why are you here here in the middle of the night?" The cultivator close to Shimen asked at Yuan Taiping's request.
There are more than 1,700 people in total, and they live in six halls in total.
Bang bang bang!
"Open the door!"
The person outside the door responded.
This time the knock on the door was louder than before.
"Who are you? Tell me your name!" Yuan Taiping shouted.
Bang bang bang!
"Open the door!"
The person outside the door responded in the same way again.
"Your uncle!"
"Are you stupid?"
The cultivators inside the door yelled and cursed in displeasure upon hearing this.
"I...Why do I feel a little weird?"
"Are you sure there's someone outside the door?"
A timid cultivator suddenly swallowed his saliva and asked, a terrible idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
After being reminded like this, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill running down their spines, and they all began to feel that the person outside the door was a bit strange.
Bang bang bang!
"Open the door!"
The person outside the door knocked on the door again with greater force, causing the entire hall to tremble.
"Shh!"
"Don't answer him, listen to what he says."
Yuan Taiping lowered his voice and said.
Everyone nodded and stopped responding.
