At this moment, suddenly a burst of white light burst out from my arms, and then instantly burst out with thousands of dazzling colorful lights, illuminating the entire passage, like a world in a fairy tale.
This sudden change shocked everyone. When they saw the light coming from my body, the whole family was even more surprised. I hurriedly put my hands into my arms and took out the piece of gold that the old man from the Sun Realm gave me.
Round jade, I can see that it is flowing with unparalleled colorful brilliance at this moment.
Just when everyone and I were looking at this magical jade and wondering what was going on, we suddenly saw the blue creatures that were originally gathering in a group to attack Taoist Master Zengfan.
It flew deep into the passage and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
This sudden change made us all stunned. The sudden brilliance of the round jade unexpectedly drove away those strange blue unknown creatures. This is simply amazing.
At this time, Taoist Master Zengfan, who saw those blue creatures escaping quickly, suddenly shook a few times and fell back. We all quickly stepped forward and helped her up. Judging from her weak look,
At that time, Taoist Master Zengfan had probably exhausted his physical strength and energy, and his vitality had been greatly damaged.
Zhang Li cried and threw herself on her body, shouting: "Master, how are you?"
Taoist Master Zengfan smiled tiredly at Zhang Li, stroked Zhang Li's hair and said softly: "Silly boy, don't cry, I'm fine. I just spent a lot of energy, just take a rest."
Hearing what Master Zengfan said, Zhang Li and everyone else felt relieved. At this time, the light of the round jade gradually dimmed, and I quickly said to instructor Shui: "I think we should evacuate from the passage first.
Besides, Yuanyu doesn’t have much energy left, and it will be troublesome if those things come back again.”
Instructor Shui nodded and said to everyone: "Everyone listen to the order. I will carry my uncle on my back. Everyone immediately withdraws from the passage and returns to the main hall to plan the next move."
Everyone nodded in agreement. Then, we all quickly turned around and retreated towards the main hall.
Fortunately, the entrance to the passage remained open and was not closed. Everyone walked out of the dark passage one after another. After a lot of effort, he waited for everyone to come out and quickly closed the passage.
Everyone sat down under the high platform, and I expressed my doubts. Only then did everyone realize how insidious Li Qitong was. The map we had gone through so much trouble to find was actually trying to lure us away.
Towards the most dangerous situation.
Fei Yifan couldn't help but curse Li Qitong, who lived a thousand years ago, and took out the map from his arms, trying to tear it into pieces with both hands. But unexpectedly, his hands suddenly
After exerting force, the yellow paper did not move at all and was not damaged at all.
Fei Yiyi looked at this ordinary-looking piece of paper with burning eyes. He felt strange. Everyone gathered around him curiously, wondering how the paper could not be torn. It was incredible. Taoist priest Zengfan asked Fei Yiyi.
Fan asked for it, turned it over with his hands, looked at it over and over, then pulled hard with both hands, rubbed it, then frowned and said: "Apart from the fact that this paper feels a little rough, I don't see anything special about it. Why?"
It can’t be kneaded into a ball or broken into pieces?”
The little clerk then came up with an idea and said: "In that case, let's burn it with fire or soak it in water to see what mystery will emerge."
Everyone's eyes lit up, yes. This piece of paper is so magical, maybe it really hides some mystery. Taoist Master Zengfan held the paper with his hand and motioned to Zhang Li to take out the kettle and pour some water on the paper.
Let's see what changes there will be.
Zhang Li quickly took out the kettle and slowly poured a little water onto the paper. The water slowly spread on the paper, making the paper wet. Everyone looked at the paper intently for ten seconds, twenty seconds.
...A minute passed, and there was no change in the paper. Even the ink marks on the font were not blurred by water. This time everyone was disappointed again.
Fei Fan came over, took out a lighter, and cursed: "Grandma, I don't believe this paper is invulnerable to water and fire. I'll try it with fire." He lit the lighter and put it under the paper.
It started to burn, and the water stains on the paper were slowly dried away, but the open flame did not burn the paper at all. Fei Yifan was so angry that he grabbed the paper from Taoist Zengfan's hand and turned it upside down.
The lighter was pointed at a corner of the paper. But something strange happened again. The paper did not catch fire at all. In other words, fire could not burn the paper at all.
Fei Fan was completely dumbfounded. He shook his head with a wry smile and said, "This thing is simply not paper, no! It's definitely not paper. I have no choice."
As he spoke, he thrust the map into Taoist Master Zengfan's hand, sat down on the steps, and said nothing.
Everyone fell into silence for a while. Is this thing paper? Is it really not paper? But another strange substance?
After a while, I was in a daze while looking at the lamps lit by strange heavy water in the hall. Suddenly a scene appeared in my mind. It suddenly occurred to me that the most amazing thing about this city of heavy water is the heavy water that is somehow material. Why not put the map on it?
What will happen in this heavy water?
Thinking of this, I stood up excitedly, walked to Taoist Master Zengfan, asked her for the map, and then walked to the heavy water lamp. Everyone looked at me curiously, not knowing what I was going to do.
I gently put the map into the heavy water lamp. This bronze lamp was about the size of a football. Although the heavy water inside burned with blue light, the heavy water inside did not seem to decrease. When I put the map in, it slowly sank to the bottom.
department.
At this time, everyone gathered around and looked at the map inside quietly with me. I hoped in my heart that the heavy water could produce magical changes in it. A few seconds passed, and under the gaze of all of us, sure enough,
The map seemed to have changed, and the black lines inside were distorting. I blinked hard and looked at the map again. It was not an illusion! The lines in the map had indeed changed, and they gradually disrupted the original ones.
Sequence and connection, constant change, reorganization.
After about a minute or two, the map stopped changing, and when everyone saw the map again, the lines in it had changed a lot. The road out of the main hall no longer had the black line under the high platform.
Instead, a line leads directly outside the main hall.
Everyone couldn't help but get excited, and Fei Fan shouted: "What a Li Qitong, and he is so scheming. This guy is definitely a bad guy."
At this time, I pulled out the military dagger, reached into the heavy water lamp, and picked out the map. The strange thing is that the map had been soaked in heavy water for more than a minute, but there was no water stain at all, and the heavy water did not have any ripples. Everyone is doing this
By that time, I had basically gotten used to it and didn’t think anything of it.
I handed the map to Fei Yifan, and then said to him with a smile: "Senior Fei, you still have to study this map to see where to go next."
Fei Fan took the map, looked at it over and over for a while, and then said strangely: "How can there be so many magical places on such a thin layer of paper? It's really unbelievable."
I patted his shoulder and said to him: "Senior Fei, haven't we seen enough magic? Don't think about it. Even if we try to break our heads, we can't figure out these strange things. It's better not to go to Fei.
The most important thing is to use your brain to study the next course of action."
Fei Fan looked at me who was laughing. Surprisingly, he didn't feel angry or roll his eyes. Instead, he looked at me with some confusion and asked: "Boy, where do you get so many foreign objects and phenomena on your body? Are you from Earth?"
?”
His words immediately made us all laugh in the hall. I couldn't help laughing and said to him: "Senior Fei, don't think about other things. We will still think about how to complete this mission later."
Fei Fan rolled his eyes at me in embarrassment and walked aside to study the map. We all also took advantage of this rare moment to sit down and rest for a while.
I looked at the comrades around me. Everyone had a look of exhaustion on their faces. Master Zengfan even looked much older than when I first met her. Wu Wu suddenly appeared in my mind.
The young faces of Fei, Zhang Heng and Ji Haifei are now sacrificed in the process of carrying out our mission and have been sleeping in those strange places. I sighed deeply in my heart: We people, this time
They are all sitting together for a second, not knowing who among them will leave in the next second...
Feeling depressed in his heart, Fei Fan suddenly shouted: "This map doesn't seem right, does it? The map shows that after we leave the City of Heavy Water, we have to pass through the City of Darkness and the City of Crystal to finally reach the City of Life and Death. In this case, we still have to
Faced with the dangers of Dark City and Crystal City like those blue unknown creatures just now. I looked at it several times, and it was the same route. Of course, the map also marked that we can avoid Baiyu, Houtu, and Wan.
Four cities of wood and fire."
Taoist Master Zengfan opened her eyes because of Fei Yifan's voice. She said weakly: "Perhaps the City of Life and Death must pass through the Dark City and the Crystal City before entering. Fei Yifan,
Bring me the map and take a look."
Fei Fan followed his words and walked to Taoist Zengfan and handed the map to him. Taoist Zengfan began to look at the map carefully. After a while, she raised her head and said: "I think this Dark City and Crystal City
The reason why we must pass through should be that there are things necessary to enter the city of life and death in these two cities. For example: we found this map in this city of heavy water."
Everyone nodded and felt that what Taoist Zengfan said made sense. Fei Fan asked with some confusion: "Then why don't the other four cities have what we need?"
Pang Xiaotai suddenly asked Fei Yifan: "Have you ever played some online games? In some online games, you need to find some objects required for the task in order to complete the task. However, these necessary objects to complete the task are not
It must be somewhere, and I think the same is true for the City of Nine Heavens. The things we need to enter the City of Life and Death may only be in the three cities of Heavy Water, Crystal and Darkness."
Fei Fan tilted his head and thought for a while, then shook his head helplessly and said to Pang Xiaotai: "At my age, I don't know much about computers, so I haven't played any games, but I think what you said may make sense."
Taoist Master Zengfan said at this time: "You don't have to guess. What we are facing is a strange thousand-year mystery. We can only take one step at a time. No one can say that this map that has been transformed by heavy water has truly entered the realm of life and death."
It is a shortcut to the city. Entering the passage just now is a lesson. We all can only act carefully and go step by step."
At this time, Instructor Shui asked Taoist Master Zengfan with concern: "Uncle, how are you feeling physically? Do you want to rest for a while before we hit the road?"
Taoist Master Zengfan smiled and said: "For those who practice Taoism, the recovery of Qi consumption does not take a while. Apart from the loss of Qi, I have no physical problems. After all, in addition to practicing Taoism, I am also a martial arts practitioner."
I don't have any problems with the aisle. Rouqing, let's act as soon as possible. Let me tell you something that people don't like to hear. I feel that the fight with the Americans in the hall seemed a bit easy. What I'm worried about is that this is a trap set by the Americans.
, the purpose is to paralyze us and make us lose our guard. Therefore, we should act as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams."
Instructor Shui nodded and said, "Okay, let's each check the equipment and continue on the road."
A few minutes later, we all walked out of the hall and followed the steps to the Chongshui Lake. The boat that carried us there had long disappeared, and the Americans and corpse wolves who had fought with us included
The Hanbao who suddenly disappeared was nowhere to be seen. I really don’t know how they left here.
Fei Fan walked to the last step and said to all of us: "The map shows that there is a mechanism here. I don't know if it allows us to pass through the Chongshui Lake. The route indicates that we have to go to the Zhongshui Lake and walk out.
The city of heavy water.”
As we spoke, we looked down at the steps, and then stamped on a corner of the steps. Sure enough, there was a sound of mechanical startup, and a stone road as wide as the steps suddenly appeared from the steps under our feet toward the Chongshui Lake.
, and two rows of square stone pillars suddenly rose under Chongshui Lake. Within a few minutes, a wide and long stone bridge appeared on the entire lake.
We all couldn't help but marvel, whether Li Qitong or Yang Sicheng were two people or one person, and no matter who built the Nine Heavens City, this person was definitely a genius.
Everyone was amazed and walked along this stone road to the other side where we came from.
After coming to Chongshui Lake, we walked across the stone arch bridge behind the huge fountain. We came to the front of the fountain again. A bluestone road appeared in front of us. One direction led to the shady house where we came from, and the other direction led to the unknown.
The way forward.
Fei Fan said: "If the map is correct, we will keep walking along the bluestone road and arrive at the gate of Chongshui City. After exiting, we will see a stone forest, and then we will enter the Dark City.
"
After everyone heard his words, no one said anything. After all, the route was marked on the map, and no one needed to have any opinions. Instructor Shui gave a gesture, and a group of nine of us followed the stone road to the city of Chongshui City.
