Chapter 48 Bank of China Gu
After Bai Ya finished speaking, the three of them couldn't help but have a cold war, and a strange atmosphere arose.
"Do you mean that the Zhonghang clan and its descendants have been living in Baolang Pavilion?" Lian Xiao's expression was a little ugly. Even if there were only some disrepaired mechanism traps left in Baolang Pavilion, it was enough to kill them, not to mention that there were still controls by living people.
"It's not necessarily a living person..."
Ouyang's words made people feel even more depressed, and the little witch's face turned pale. She would not feel afraid even if the ghost appeared in front of her, but this strange and mysterious situation triggered the girl's instinctive fear.
"What should I do?"
"Stay going, at most, be caught by something, and then apply a layer of wet mud on the surface of your body, slowly suffocating in the darkness and fear, until it becomes a muddy mud doll!" Bai Ya looked at Lian Xiao's pale face and deliberately scared her expressionlessly.
The little witch's face gradually turned from white to blue, but just as Bai Ya was holding back her laughter and trying to watch the show, she suddenly calmed down and turned around and glared at Bai Ya fiercely.
"I am worthy of being a genius trained by the sect!" Bai Ya secretly praised in his heart.
The most difficult thing a warrior is not the enemy, and the most difficult thing to see through is not life and death, but his own fear. The long martial arts road, only by constantly overcoming his own fear and limits can he reach the peak. Otherwise, no matter how high his talent is, he will stagnate one day because of the demonic obstacles in his heart.
Ouyang smiled at Bai Ya. He would not interrupt when the two of them were fighting. When looking at the dispute between good and evil, his mission was only to observe and not to contain any personal emotional colors.
No matter how intrigue Bai Ya and Lian Xiao were here, even if they did something contrary to human relations, he would only be a "quiet handsome man" aside. Then he wrote in a certain record, "When year and month, what did a certain disciple of the Qingcheng Sect (Heavenly Demon Dao) do in a certain place."
"Click ~"
The corridor was too narrow, and the three of them heard echoes from afar, making the surroundings look particularly quiet, as if they could hear their heartbeat.
Bai Ya's uneasiness became stronger and stronger. He felt that he was walking into a bloody mouth, as if he was walking from the earth to hell. He secretly observed the other two companions and found that they had also slowed down and should have been aware of it.
However, the road behind the corridor was closed, and now they had only one choice to continue moving forward. The strange atmosphere continued until a light appeared at the end of the corridor, and the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
When they arrived at the end of the corridor, a warm hot wind came towards them, dispelling the rich dark aura in the corridor, which made the three of them feel excited. When they saw the situation outside the corridor clearly, they were stunned.
The situation here is somewhat unexpected, and the previous feeling of anxiety seemed to be just a nightmare.
The exit of the corridor connects a huge courtyard. On both sides of the yard are flowerbeds for planting plants, an octagonal well in the center, and a stone tablet archway behind it, with the words "Rucheng".
Most of the plants in the flowerbeds on both sides of the courtyard have withered, and only a few plants are still stubbornly alive. Just looking at their leaves withered and yellow, they look listless, it can be seen that they can't last long.
The most peculiar place here is the octagonal well. Two meters above its wellhead is a red bead the size of a child's fist. The beads emit burning energy, illuminating the entire courtyard like a light bulb.
"Red Flame Pearl!" Lian Xiao's beautiful eyes lit up. He was about to take a step but suddenly remembered something. He paused and turned around and asked, "Mr. Ouyang, may you see if there are any mechanical traps here?"
"The style of this place is different from that of Baolang Pavilion. If you guess it well, this building, including the courtyard, may be the newly built living area of the last descendant of the Zhonghang family after escaping into the secret realm."
Ouyang pondered for a moment and gave his own guess, "I can't see if there are any mechanism traps here, at least there are no traces of formation..."
Lian Xiao couldn't help but nodded, and she didn't feel the fluctuation of the energy of the magic array.
If this place was really built by fugitives after the destruction of the Zhongxing clan, then there should be no mechanism trap.
If the foreign enemies who break in can pass through the master-level mechanism traps outside the Baolang Pavilion, the fugitives will no longer have to struggle. If the foreign enemies cannot find the Sebi Corpse Secret Realm, or cannot pass the magic array outside the Baolang Pavilion, why should they waste the last little resources to build a low-level magic array?
Wanting here, Lian Xiao walked out of the corridor and wanted to take away the Red Flame Bead suspended above the Octagonal Water Well.
"Miss, wait first, don't rush to take the beads. Without the Red Flame Pearl, it will be dark here." Ouyang greeted with a wry smile.
"Hehe!" Bai Ya grinned.
"Thank you for your reminder!" Lian Xiao stopped and turned around and chuckled at Ouyang, wiping out the embarrassment in an understatement. However, when Ouyang walked over, he immediately had a pretty face and glared at Bai Ya again.
Bai Ya shrugged indifferently. Seeing that Lian Xiao had signs of an outbreak, he hurriedly followed Ouyang.
"Brother Ouyang, what is the Red Flame Pearl?" he asked softly.
"The Red Flame Bead is a crystal bead born from the earth fire. It contains abundant fire energy and is very useful. The high-quality Red Flame Bead can also be used as an auxiliary object for certain fire-attribute martial arts."
Ouyang explained with a smile, "The red flame beads used for lighting are usually not too high in quality, but this one... let's take a closer look."
Before he came to the Octagonal Water Well, he did not observe the Red Flame Bead, but instead possessed himself to check the Octagonal Water Well.
"It's so deep!" Bai Ya leaned over and looked at the water well, and immediately raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Except for more than a hundred meters illuminated by the Red Flame Pearl, there is darkness under the well, as if it is leading to the abyss.
"It's true!" Ouyang looked at the well, wiped the inner wall of the well with his fingers, and then nodded.
"This well is not a water well, but a ground furnace, which is connected to the ground fire." Ouyang smiled, "It should have been built by the descendants of Zhongxing clan who fled into the Sebi Corpse Secret Realm. They used the power of the earth fire in the secret realm to compete with the Yin Qi environment, so that the houses here can live for a long time and the flowerbed can grow fruits and herbs, which lasted hundreds of years."
According to common sense, normal people cannot live in the Sebi Corpse Secret Realm, but human creativity is infinite. The escapees from Zhongxing clan still came up with some solutions in desperate situations.
"In this way, we may meet the living descendants of the Zhonghang clan?" Bai Ya and Lian Xiao's expressions immediately became solemn.
"I don't know this." Ouyang smiled bitterly, "If Zhongxing clan really has descendants, then it's probably here, but now..."
Before Ouyang could finish his speech, Bai Ya and Lian Xiao understood.
They have all gone deep into this place. If there are still living people in the descendants of the Zhongxing clan, how could they not come out?
"No matter what, just go in and take a look." Lian Xiao's eyes flashed and he walked towards the archway.
The courtyard here is only the front yard of this mansion, and the main house is behind the archway.
Lian Xiao and Ouyang walked past the archway one after another, but Bai Ya walked to the archway and stood at the word "Ruin City" on the archway.
"Xu" is a place where someone has lived but is now abandoned. The place where they live is called "Xu". It is completely imagined that the great feeling of loss after the failure of Xing's family to restore the country is. However, calling such a small house "city" shows the pride they have developed in their bones.
It was only Bai Ya who looked at the archway twice. When he stepped back, he found that there was no one in front of him.
Behind the archway is a courtyard-like courtyard. Through the archway, you can see the scene behind you at a glance. Lian Xiao and Ouyang, who had just passed through the archway, lost their traces, as if they were just a traceless spring dream.
Bai Ya's pupils instantly dilated, and a chill air appeared on his back.
Even Xiao and Ouyang Shi's fall here is no big deal. No matter how talented one is, he has no artistic conception. Although the other is knowledgeable, his strength is not high. However, such a short distance can make him unaware of anything, which is a bit terrible.
"Is there a magic circle behind the archway that they can't even notice..." Bai Ya's face looked a little ugly. Even Xiao was not allowed to hide it from Ouyang's eyes, so this magic circle was not simple.
"Enter, but don't go..." Bai Ya's expression changed a little, and finally sighed and walked past the archway.
The retreat was cut off, and he was not Ouyang. Even if he retreated to the mummy hall, he could not find the stone steps of the corridor. Now I just hope that this is just a trick set up by Zhongxing, not a magic circle that even Ouyang could not detect.
"Hey, this is..."
As soon as Bai Ya stepped past the archway, he immediately knew what was going on. He felt as if he had passed through an invisible film. This archway turned out to be a portal, an entry portal similar to mustard seed space.
Ouyang and Lian Xiao did not feel wrong. There was indeed no magic circle here, but were incorporated into a huge mustard seed space.
"That archway turned out to be a space magic weapon!!!" Bai Ya couldn't help but be shocked while awakening.
The average mustard bag is only a few cubic meters, and even the divine hidden ring of Baiya is only equivalent to the sum of several mustard bags. And this archway can actually accommodate the entire mansion. The value of this space magic weapon is simply incalculable, and it is probably the biggest foundation of Zhongxing’s family.
In addition to being surprised, Bai Ya looked at the surrounding environment vigilantly.
The place where he is located is a hall, which is about half a football field size, and Lian Xiao and Ouyang are still missing. Not far in front of him, an old man in gray was looking at him with a bright look.
The old man in gray looks very old, with white eyebrows hanging down his shoulders, his face full of old man spots, and his complexion is gray. His skin-bone dry palms are leaning on a white jade crutch, and his body is hunched. There is only a gleam in his slightly squinting eyes, looking up and down at Bai Ya.
"Don't panic with your friend, I'm going to take care of you!"
