Chapter 13: The Ghost Gate!
It is really hard to deduce the birth gate, Li Canghai has never felt so tired, he now admires those metaphysical scholars, deducing such a huge amount of information, it is simply a group of non-humans.
"In this forest, how can there be Qimen Dunjia? What was that ghost before, and where did it go? ”
Li Canghai pinched his eyebrows vigorously, the more he thought about it, the more headache he felt, many things appeared in his mind like a fog, and he soon fell asleep.
I don't know how long it took, he was woken up by Di Qing, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that it was almost sunset.
Li Canghai hurriedly sobered up his head, and while he was silently calculating the time in his heart, he asked Di Qing to prepare the torch.
When the sun set in the treetops, Li Canghai knew that the time had come, and hurriedly pulled Di Qing to the east.
After daytime observations, he speculated that this Qimen Dunjia was laid out with an outer square and an inner circle, contrary to the traditional theory of 'the sky is round and the place is round'.
This led him to make a bold assumption that if he wanted to leave this formation, he would have to go in the opposite direction.
Qimen is hidden under the six instruments, lying in the three odds, following the yin in the yang, and walking in the puppet when encountering the odd, so that there is a glimmer of vitality.
The night was miserable, and fog fell again on the whole forest.
The two of them held torches and carefully walked through the fog, which was much more complicated than Li Canghai's speculation, the direction was difficult to distinguish in the dense fog, and the slightest mistake might cause them to get lost in this formation again.
After walking for nearly an hour, I don't know how many times I turned, and the surrounding mounds gradually disappeared.
But what they saw in front of them made them feel confused.
It was a relatively open area, and the whole area was shrouded in fog, and only a few buildings seemed to stand in the depths.
"What kind of place is this, it's so cold." Di Qing rubbed her face tremblingly, and asked with some trembling.
Li Canghai shook his head, he didn't know where this was.
"It's a gloomy atmosphere here, so let's be careful."
Li Canghai burned the torch more vigorously, set the direction slightly, and walked forward with Di Qing.
The two walked about twenty zhang or so, and they found that in front of them was a cliff dozens of zhang wide!
The cliff was shrouded in fog, bottomless, and the wind roared in the cliff, and the low sound was like the wailing of countless night ghosts, which made people shudder.
"Li Canghai, there is a stone tablet here."
At this moment, Di Qing suddenly found a stone tablet erected on the edge of the cliff, and hurriedly called Li Canghai to go over and take a look.
Li Canghai walked over quickly, the stele was a few feet high, and the stele was covered with thick moss, which looked extremely mottled.
After getting the moss off, Li Canghai took a torch and shone it on it, which suddenly made his face pale.
Di Qing felt strange, and hurriedly leaned over to look, she suddenly saw a few big characters on the stone tablet with dragons flying and phoenixes dancing:
Death!
The blood on Di Qing's face faded instantly, and the whole person stood on the spot as if petrified.
"Ghost ...... The door is closed, have we come to Hades? Di Qing was obviously frightened and trembled.
Li Canghai was also scared into a cold sweat, but he quickly calmed down.
He has never believed in the existence of ghosts and gods, so he took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said: "So far, we can only move on, I don't believe that there are ghosts and gods in this world." ”
"But...... What if this is really the underworld? ”
Li Canghai took Di Qing's hand and said in a deep voice: "If it is really the underworld, I will accompany you to die together." ”
It's strange to say, after Di Qing's hand was held by Li Canghai, her troubled heart quickly calmed down.
Behind the stele there is a stone bridge that is not more than a foot wide, and the stone bridge is hidden in the fog and leads directly to the opposite cliff.
Li Canghai patted the back of Di Qing's hand, and then led her to the stone bridge.
I don't know if it's psychological, but when they walk on the stone bridge, they can always feel that there seem to be countless wandering spirits around them, and occasionally they can hear some sad and complaining ghosts crying.
Di Qing was already afraid of ghosts, so she simply closed her eyes and let Li Canghai drag her forward.
Li Canghai was calm on the surface, but there was sweat on his forehead.
The stone bridge is narrow and hidden in a thick fog, and if the pool falls into the cliff, it will be shattered.
It took them half an hour to walk a distance of about twenty zhang.
Li Canghai's whole body was about to collapse, and he and Di Qing rested for a while before continuing to walk inside.
It is a square with red flowers on the other side.
The blood-red flowers on the other side are connected, like a sea of blood, and the red ones are dizzying.
Passing through the square, there is half of the mountain cliff, and the cliff is carved with countless hideous ghosts and gods.
There was a swarthy cave in the straight line where the cliff faced the stone bridge, and the two of them looked at each other and walked in.
The cave is more than ten zhang long, and the dark and oppressive cave is full of strange and gloomy statues of ghosts and gods.
When I walked out of the cave, I suddenly saw a magnificent palace complex.
There is a clear river in front of the palace complex, and the water flows slowly.
Both sides of the bank are full of flowers, and a road paved with yellow dirt winds its way in a sea of blood-colored flowers.
The surrounding fog is gloomy, and the red, yellow and black colors form a strong visual impact and hit people's hearts.
"Look, there's a stone bridge there!" Di Qing was also deeply shocked by what she saw in front of her, and forgot to be afraid.
Li Canghai looked in the direction Di Qing pointed, and sure enough, there was a stone bridge erected over the river.
The two came to the stone bridge, stood on the stone bridge and looked down, the clear river was like a smooth mirror, reflecting the figures of the two.
For some reason, his past appeared on the river, as if he was playing a movie.
At that moment, the two seemed to be in a daze, and they actually leaned out half of their bodies, and they would fall to the bottom of the river at any time.
At this moment, a white shadow suddenly flashed on the surface of the river.
The white shadow spread out its head and stretched out its claws to grab at the two of them.
"Ghost!"
Li Canghai screamed, and suddenly came to his senses, and he was shocked to find that he and Di Qing were in a strange posture about to jump from the bridge into the river.
He glanced at the river and broke out in a cold sweat.
In the originally clear river, countless strange fish appeared.
The fish looked like they weren't human, with scales all over their bodies and a tail.
Li Canghai instantly understood that these were the legendary 'mirages'.
The 'mirage' is a type of merman, and unlike the merman, the mirage is good at confusing people.
Li Canghai suddenly woke up to the fact that all he saw was confused by this 'mirage', he hurriedly grabbed Di Qing, who was about to jump into the river, and shouted: "Miss Qing, wake up!" ”
Di Qing's cheeks were crimson, and she didn't know what she saw, showing a rare shyness, but her eyes were still empty.
The mirages below, with barbed fangs, raised their heads and waited for their prey to fall.
At that moment, Li Canghai actually saw the treacherous appearance in the eyes of those mirages, which made him shudder suddenly, and said in his heart, Could these monsters be fine?
Thinking of this, Li Canghai didn't have time to think about it, they were confused by the mirage's eyes. He directly turned Di Qing's head to the side, and then kissed it, using his own body to separate the eyes between them.
