Chapter 685: Two More Deaths
Chapter 685: Two More Deaths
The sandstone city wall outside already makes people feel creepy.
However, when the crowd walked to the tall building in the middle of the city, it was even more intimidating.
It's better to say it's a building than an ancient castle.
Outside the castle is a moat.
In this regard, everyone was a little surprised, the Western Regions is a place where water is scarce, and they don't know where the water in this moat comes from.
On the other side of the moat is the gate of the castle.
The gate is shaped like a monster with a bloody mouth wide open, with a long tongue sticking out, acting as a bridge.
If a man wants to enter the castle, he has to step on his tongue and enter the mouth of a monster.
Looking at the gate in front of him, Gongsun couldn't help but smile and said:
"Interesting, Zhang Qiling, what's in here?"
Zhang Qiling seemed to be very nervous, and blurted out after hearing the voice:
"The upper nine welcomes the sky, the lower nine is the sacrifice, the eighteen are the number, and the sun and the moon are the lessons. ”
"Oh?!, what does that mean?" asked Gongsun Qi with a wink.
Zhang Qiling immediately sobered up, greeted him with a smile and said:
"The small one also listens to the legend, as if it says that there are eighteen floors in it, and what we see now is a nine-story building. ”
Nodding appreciatively, Gongsun Qi said, "Well, it's good, continue to lead the way." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Qiling was slightly stunned, and immediately knelt down and said:
"The little one heard that there are many crises inside, and the small martial arts are low, and I am afraid that they can't deal with it, and if the little one dies, there will be no one to guide the adults. ”
Gongsun Qi didn't expect Zhang Qiling to give him this play, and he was a little hesitant for a while.
I heard Zhang Qiling deliberately lower his voice and said:
"I heard that there are countless gold and silver treasures here, and if you get it, it will be enough to recruit soldiers. ”
"Oh?!" Gongsun Qi asked again in a questioning voice:
"Surely you have treasure in it?"
In order to confirm what he said, Zhang Qiling picked up his weapon, the iron rod, pointed to one end and said:
"This is the villain's accident, and it was originally inlaid with precious stones. ”
After speaking, Zhang Qiling took out a blue gem from his arms, half the size of a fist.
The gem glows in the moonlight.
At the first sight of the gem, some people in the guards immediately exclaimed, all of them showed greedy looks, and then two guards, one fat and one thin, stepped forward and said loudly with a loyal face:
"The little one is willing to explore the way for the adults!"
His face sank like water, Gongsun glanced at Zhang Qiling out of the corner of his eyes, and then looked at the fat and thin two guards, and sighed lightly: "Okay, be careful." ”
Suddenly, two guards stepped forward happily.
Seeing the two guards step forward, Guo Huai looked disdainful, in his opinion, these guards had nothing to do with him, and they were not his own people at all.
Gongsun Qi commanded softly: "Guo Huai, help them if possible." ”
"Yes! Guo Huai turned the double blades upside down and held the chain in his hand.
See you soon!
Two guards with blades in hand, carefully stepped into the tongue of the monster.
As a person in the rivers and lakes, there is a basic common sense that danger and opportunity coexist.
However, even if everyone is well aware of this, they will still be dominated by greed.
This is human nature.
The two guards were already very careful, but they still had to come, and it was not up to the level of martial arts to decide.
In an instant, the tongue that had been used as a bridge softened.
One fat and one thin, the two guards were in the air, and they suddenly let out an exclamation, and the people fell directly into the moat.
The thin guard reacted quickly, and stepped on the fat guard, using this to jump up with the help of the person, and the whole person hung under the nose of the monster gate.
But the fat guard was not so lucky, and fell into the river with a "plop".
Fortunately, Guo Huai had already prepared, and at the moment when the lower half of the fat guard's body entered the water, the chain wrapped around his upper body.
"Cut, hold on, I'll pull you up!" Guo Huai said with a little dissatisfaction.
The fat guard breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed the chains, and responded:
"Thank you...... Ah~~~~!"
The screams burst out!
The river splashed like a boil, and the river began to turn red with the fat guard as the center.
The screams didn't last long, and when Guo Huai pulled people up, everyone's pupils tightened, and they were horrified!
Because, the fat guard no longer has a lower body, and only Sensen's white bones remain.
Just as everyone was terrified, there was a short scream from the other side of the gate.
Suddenly turned his head, and all that remained in front of everyone's eyes was the fire-breathing gate.
After the flames passed, the skinny guard was nowhere to be seen.
In just an instant, the team lost two more people.
Of the original nine guards, only five remained.
But now is not the time to think about this, everyone must first think about how to get in.
"Let's go around it," Guo Huai suggested.
Indeed, the best way to face a fire-breathing gate is to avoid it, and it's a big deal to break the wall.
As soon as Guo Huai's words fell, a row of small monsters climbed up along the wall of the gate, each of which exuded a metallic luster.
It seems that it should be the same mechanism as the gate.
Suddenly, Gongsun Qi and his party were a little sitting.
Jumping over, the monster gate will spew flames, there is no place to hide, and there is something unknown in the water, which can instantly gnaw people into white bones.
Everyone focused on Gongsun Qi.
With a chuckle, Gongsun Qi commanded:
"Find some bricks and stones, just smash them!"
Everyone's eyes lit up, the method was a little rougher, but it was the most direct and practical.
Just as everyone was about to demolish the house, the little beasts on the wall all shrank back.
Looking at the wall with a sneer, Gongsun Qi knew in his heart that there must be someone behind this.
Reach out and slash into the moat.
"Boom!"
The river exploded, forming a wave that crossed the gate and went straight behind the gate.
Only then did everyone see that some small fish were mixed in the river, a strange fish with a mouth full of sharp teeth.
"Ah~~~!"
There was a brief exclamation from behind the door, and there was no sound after that.
Gongsun Qi took the lead and crossed the gate with light skills.
Behind the door, there is indeed an amazing set of gear and connecting rods.
"Come here!"
Gongsun Qi shouted at the gate.
Zhang Liao, Guo Huai, and five guards immediately jumped over the moat and entered through the gate.
I saw Gongsun Qi staring at the ground.
There are clear footprints on the ground.
"Who's pretending to be a ghost?!!
There was no response for four weeks.
Gongsun Qi waved his hand and said softly:
"We go in, and when it's time to come out, we always come out. ”
Climb the stairs, and soon come to a large hall, the palace is magnificent, and you can see at a glance that it is the style of the Central Plains of the Wu Dynasty.
However, the carvings on the building are completely different from the Central Plains style.
The commonly used auspicious beasts and gods are gone, and are replaced by various monsters, gods and demons.
Especially in the rafter of the hall, there is a lifelike lotus flower suspended, and I don't know what material it is, but I feel crystal clear.
Walk under the lotus flower and enter the main hall.
"Hiss~~~~!"
For a while, everyone gasped.
Saw!
Under the light of the torches, hundreds of statues of demon gods stood irregularly above the main hall.
If you don't regret it or Kunlun Sanying is here, you will definitely recognize it.
These statues of demon gods are very similar to those in the Nanfan Crypt.
It's just that the body size is a little smaller, only one zhang tall, and it is more uniform in appearance, all of which are one shape!
