"So... which floor of the prison is it... Wang..."
"Hmm..." Heipao thought for a few seconds, "Just Luoying's classroom. The prison cell is really unpleasant. Let's not call it that name in the future, okay?"
Xiao Xie shivered even more.
"Yes, King, I will take Meng Fuling to the Prison of the Dead and accept the punishment together."
"Oh, I don't need you to go with me," Heipao replied cheerfully, "but if you are willing, it would be good to teach Meng Fuling more during the process."
Xiao Xie tried his best to move his stiff cervical vertebrae, lowered his head slightly towards the black robe, tapped his cane three times, and prepared to turn around and leave.
"Wait a minute," the black-robed voice suddenly became colder, and even revealed a hint of murderous intent, "You haven't answered my question yet."
question.
Xiao Xie's right hand holding the cane started to tremble uncontrollably again.
Wang, what question was asked?
"I said, let's not call that prison cell any more in the future, okay?"
"What the king said... is naturally good and right..."
"Oh, don't say that, I have always respected you." The voice in black robe softened again.
"You have always been a kind and generous king in the hearts of the residents of the royal city."
Xiao Xie lowered his head and said softly, then clutched the dark and slender cane and quickly left the worship hall.
"Kindness, generosity."
A mocking, high-pitched voice.
The black robe sneered, flicked his wide sleeves, and a palm that looked like a dead tree appeared on the armrest of the throne.
The back of the hand is yellow, chapped, and covered with deep lines.
The branch-like fingers tapped twice on the armrest, then immediately raised their index finger, slightly bent, pointing in the air.
"Phoenix."
Several blackbirds circling in the auditorium hall heard the sound and rushed down. The leader's body was as black as splashed ink, its wings spread out fiercely, like a bullet, spinning and flying towards the withered hand.
When it was about to approach the hand, the black bird's speed dropped suddenly, it adjusted its direction, and finally stood firmly on the black robe's fingertips.
"Well...my precious companion, my phoenix..."
The black robe raised the black bird to his eyes, and the phoenix's small eyes stared straight at him.
Perhaps this is the only living being who has seen the true face of King God.
The other blackbirds had already dispersed, and they were not qualified to be summoned by the King God.
"Our big day is coming, Phoenix," the black robe said silently, "Break the sky and become a true god. No one can stop us. Go ahead, Phoenix, and ring our silent bell again, so that everyone...
…Everyone surrenders…”
The black robe looked at the phoenix flying away from the fingertips, and retracted his hand. The throne was still shining with the luster of gold. The black robe sat quietly, and there was no more sound.
***
The sound of the bell is the key.
Xiaolan quickly glanced at the Taoist priest.
The last time the bell rang, Meng Zecheng became Meng Fuling.
Now that the bell is ringing again, what will happen?
The Taoist Master understood what Xiao Lan meant. He turned around and looked at everyone. Seeing that everyone was in perfect agreement, they all quickly packed their backpacks and stood there, looking in the direction of the Black Tower.
Just because I was confused, I had to speed up even more.
After passing through this jungle, you will reach the bottom of the tower.
We must find the King God and find the answer before the Mother Sacrifice.
Several people immediately set off and walked towards the Black Tower.
***
"There is no one in Tower Square."
March lying behind a tree, holding up a telescope and said.
February and Maple Sugar each hid on one side. The three of them had already walked through the forest. They chose to overcome their sorrow with non-stop steps along the way, and they came directly to the foot of the Black Tower of the King God.
Looking from here, you can see that the black tower is not actually slender. The flat platform is about the size of half a football field.
The tower is built of black bricks and is separated from the forest by an empty tower square. The tower square is covered with a cement floor mixed with gray pebbles. Under the reflection of layers of dark clouds, it looks increasingly lonely and empty.
"Not a single guard?" Yue Yue asked puzzledly, suddenly feeling that this scene looked a bit familiar.
When they first entered the royal city, the three brothers were like this...
In February, shake your head and put the bad thoughts behind you.
This time Sanyue didn't act recklessly. He turned around and handed the binoculars to them, and the three of them took turns to take a look.
"If Wang Shen is inside, there is no way there will be no guards here," Maple Sugar put down the telescope, "I'm afraid there might be an ambush."
February and March nodded in agreement.
"Then what should we do?" March looked at her brother confused.
February looks towards the maple sugar.
"Even so, we still have to go," Maple Sugar looked at the two of them firmly, "We can't just get stuck in this unknown place, but... we have to go cautiously."
The three of them finished their disguises and wore blue-gray hoods that could basically hide them. They turned back three times and left the jungle towards the circular square.
Three people cannot get together.
Maple sugar surrounds the ugly but useful tent and passes through the center of the square in one breath.
February and March will rush in from the left and right respectively.
Maple Sugar stood in front of the long steps leading to the entrance from the bottom of the black tower, waiting for the two of them.
The person on the right appeared soon after. It was March. No one was chasing behind him, but March seemed to be even more nervous.
"Where's the second brother?" He stopped and came to Maple Sugar.
"February will come through the other side, don't worry."
As soon as he finished speaking, something pierced the air and made a frightening whooshing sound in the air.
"Teng!"
A jet-black feathered arrow rode on the wind and pierced the gray ground in front of the two of them.
arrow.
Someone!
"elder brother!"
March couldn't control it and shouted directly.
At the corner of the square, the gray figure finally appeared.
There were more flying arrows.
Maple Sugar looked around and saw no one.
Where did this arrow come from?
March waved desperately at February.
Are you finally going to escape to the tower?
Suddenly, the two of them took a breath of air.
Behind Er Yue, a sharp arrow was flying towards the ground, and the arrow was pointing in the direction of Er Yue's heart.
"Brother, be careful!" Sanyue shouted hurriedly and ran there.
Can't lose it anymore.
February, who was running, realized their warning, quickly adjusted his gait, and turned his head slightly to glance behind him.
Shocked.
However, the speed of the arrow did not give them more time to react. Seeing that the blade was about to pierce into the body, Yue Yue only had time to raise his hand, as if he wanted to use his arm to block it. At that moment, something happened
But something has changed.
When the tip of the arrow was only a forearm's width away from February, the arrow seemed to hit something hard, trembled, and then fell straight down.
"elder brother!"
March flew over, grabbed February's hand, and the two finally escaped safely back to the bottom of the steps.
All three of them were in shock.
Just being close to the black tower put the three of them in crisis.
After breathing evenly, the three of them remembered the strange phenomenon just now.
