8 There was no sound in the receiver of the floating secret room. Maybe Su Lun got angry and hung up the phone.
I put away the phone and explained slowly when we have time to meet each other in the future. Now one is in the primeval forest at the junction of Sichuan and Tibet, and the other is in the weird Fengqie Temple. No matter how long the phone call is, we may not be able to communicate smoothly.
After going down another level, when I stood on the empty ground, I still couldn't find the shadow of Tengjia.
"What? Did I make a miscalculation and count the wrong number of floors when I came down from the top of the tower?" There was a staircase on the left, so I subconsciously ran down it because I didn't seriously stop to think about what was going on.
I just thought that the end of the stairs was the first floor of the "Tower of the Dead".
When I walked around the "Tower of the Dead" several times, I only found the stairs leading to the top of the tower, so I had the stubborn impression that "the stairs only lead from the first floor to the top of the tower."
After going down three floors in a row, my mind began to become confused, as if I had stepped into an endless nightmare. No matter how I calculated, I should have reached the first floor instead of endlessly advancing up the stairs.
I stopped and took deep breaths, hoping to calm down and think about what happened.
The stairs under my feet seemed to be different from before, emitting a vague white light, including the walls. I leaned against the wall, pressing my forehead against the cold stone. After about five minutes, I felt that my mood was calmer.
, continue to go down the stairs, step by step slowly.
There was no one on the stairs, and no one on each floor. It was as if I was the only one left in the "Tower of the Dead." At this time, the only belief left in my heart was: "Go to the end and get out of this tower!"
I don't know what happened. I went up and down the top of the tower several times, but nothing like this has ever happened. Now, walking on the stairs is like entering a maze that is always unpredictable and has no end.
Turning another corner, a person suddenly appeared in my sight, with her back to me, sitting on the stairs. Her head was lying on her tight knees, and her hair was hanging down casually, all the way to the ground, just like that.
He sat silently, motionless, and showed no signs of breathing.
"A...dead person?" I held on to the wall and walked down very carefully until I was behind her. The smell of French perfume entered my nose, and her slender waist also made me feel very familiar. The clothes she wore
She was wearing a long black dress, with a short and soft pure black fox fur covering her upper body - "It's Guan Baoling! It's her, it must be her!" I began to become ecstatic and walked gently past her,
Then turn around and squat down.
She remained motionless, as if she had fallen asleep deeply.
I slowly reached out and held a lock of her black hair. Her hair was so soft and smooth, as if I was holding a piece of the finest silk. For a moment, I forgot where I was and what I was doing.
I want this moment to stop forever.
There was no wind, no sound of water, no smell of sea - nothing, just this vaguely glowing staircase, the wall, and two people.
Her feet were bare, and her ten small toes were slightly red and swollen, but her shoes were nowhere to be found. It was obvious that she had been walking around non-stop for a certain period of time, and then threw away her shoes in order to walk faster.
.
My nose suddenly felt a little itchy, so I covered my mouth hard, turned away and sneezed lightly.
She was awakened, and suddenly raised her head, flicking her black hair back to her back.
"Miss Guan, it's me, Feng." I smiled apologetically at her, but saw infinite confusion and confusion in her eyes.
"I'm so happy that you can come back again!" This is the truth. Guan Baoling's reappearance can calm all the tycoon's accusations. Both the Sharpshooter Association and Fengqie Temple will be safe, and the big stone hanging in my heart is finally over.
Let it go.
"Is this another hallucination?" She stretched out her hand, pressed her cold fingers on my forehead, kept sliding and groping, her movements as gentle as a severe sleepwalker.
I squatted quietly, letting her hands slide on my head, face, and shoulders. Her face was pale and haggard, her chin was sharply pointed, and her already thin shoulders were shaking constantly.
"Isn't it a hallucination? Is it really you?" Her lips trembled. With this look, she no longer looked like the most charming and admired Chinese actress under the spotlight, but just a helpless little girl in loneliness and hardship.
girl.
"It's me." Maybe I should stretch out my arms and give her a warm hug, because now she looks tired and cold, and she really needs someone to warm her.
Guan Baoling retracted her hand, suddenly jumped forward, and bumped into my arms. Then her body trembled and her arms tightly hugged my waist.
I hugged her blankly, and the feeling of happiness washed over my whole body like a tide. At this moment, I really hugged Guan Baoling, the "tycoon's woman" who once fascinated me. Her body was very beautiful.
It is light and very soft. It reminds me of the little pigeon and kitten I held when I was a child. I held it carefully for fear that it would be disturbed and run away.
"Thank you, I'm really scared. This place is cold and quiet, maybe it's hell on earth... I don't know what I've done, and God wants to punish me like this." She murmured into my chest, wet with tears.
The clothes on my chest.
I patted her shoulder lightly: "It's okay, it's okay. You're back. Just like last time at Xunfuyuan Villa, didn't you come back safe and sound?"
These were just ordinary words of comfort, but she sat up immediately, let go of my waist, blinked and looked around. As far as her eyes could see, there were stone steps and stone walls emitting a vague white light. There should be nothing special about them.
Weird place.
"Come back? No, no, we are still here, how can we 'come back'? Don't you think these stone walls and stone steps are weird? And, and... there are even weirder things below..." She stretched out her hand and pointed downwards
He looked up, and the fiery red kodan on his fingertips was so bright that it caught his eyes.
My thoughts still haven't turned around. Maybe it was the tender hug just now that made my thoughts and soul fly to the sky? I don't understand what she is talking about at all.
"Down below? I know that Teng Jia and Master Shenbi are both on the first floor. Let's go down! They don't know how happy they will be when they know that you are out of danger!" I was still hesitating whether to tell her that the tycoon had been to Feng.
I was afraid that after hearing the news about the tycoon, she would abandon me immediately.
Once caught in the emotional whirlpool, everyone's thoughts will become chaotic, whether they are poor and lowly like beggars or noble like royal nobles, it is all the same. If it were normal, I should have thought of the weirdness of the thing - the infinitely increasing number of stairs.
The weird luminous stone steps and walls, Guan Baoling's fear...
"Shall we go?" I held her arm and slowly lifted her up.
"Go? Down or up? Where is the exit?" She smiled bitterly, and two strings of crystal tears suddenly flowed out of the corners of her eyes and slid down her cheeks.
"Of course it's going down. You need to have a good night's rest. When you wake up tomorrow, everything will be back to normal. Don't worry." I supported her and went down the stairs. Her body was shaking badly, and she kept sighing and crying.
After going down another flight of stairs, if my calculations are correct, we will already be on the thirteenth floor after coming down from the top of the tower.
White light appeared below. Perhaps Master Shenbi brought some kind of lighting tool?
I shouted happily: "Miss Fujika, Master Shenbi! Look, who did I find?"
No one answered, and there was dead silence below. Even the sound of water could not be heard.
Guan Baoling smiled bitterly, put her hand on the wall, and refused to go down any further: "I'm so tired, I don't want to go any further. You go down first, and I'll take a rest before coming back." Her long eyelashes fluttered in pain, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
String after string kept rolling down.
I thought about it and said hesitantly: "I can't leave you here alone... How about I carry you down?" Because I don't want to fall short again and don't want any changes to happen again. I must take her out of the "undead" with my own hands.
Tower".
"You...don't you think it's weird here? Why do you have to go down? I'm afraid..." Her words were incoherent.
I bent down and picked her up, and strode down the stairs. My heart was filled with the heroic feeling of a hero saving a beautiful woman. Compared with Wang Jiangnan, my luck should be thousands of times better. Guan Baoling disappeared from him, but I found it with my own hands.
Coming back was enough to prove that Wang Jiangnan was only capable of leading the people of the Sharpshooter Club to kill, and he couldn't take care of her at all.
At least mentally, I have completely defeated Wang Jiangnan. In one minute, I will become a hero in Fengqiao Temple, just like the last time I rescued Tengjia in the deep well of the pyramid.
"sky--"
When I actually stood on the first floor of the pagoda, my thoughts suddenly became extremely confusing, fearful, and horrifying - the ground was transparent, and we seemed to be standing on a transparent glass floor. There was only one pagoda door, but it was dark.
It was completely dark and nothing could be seen outside.
I held Guan Baoling in my arms and turned around to look around. This was definitely not the first floor of the original pagoda, and of course Tengjia and Master Shenbi could not be found.
"Where...are we?" My teeth began to tremble uncontrollably. Just outside the floor, an eel with a soft and slender body swam nonchalantly and swam past. The red spots on its body exuded a faint fluorescence. The fish was
It's impossible to swim in the air. I can see that everything outside is water.
"I don't know." Guan Baoling lowered her eyes helplessly, her long eyelashes trembling.
Another fish swam over, with a flat body and colorful dorsal fins like a row of long streamers. Like the eels just now, they are all marine fish, so we may be able to conclude that we are in sea water.
I looked at my feet, and across the transparent ground, I saw a large group of chubby salmon, twisting their gray bodies and walking between the big puffs of seaweed. There were little bits of fluorescence everywhere.
Flickering, this situation is exactly the same as what I saw when I was doing deep sea diving in Europe.
"This is a dream!" I laughed loudly and put down Guan Baoling. Her black diamond-encrusted high heels were next to the tower door on the right. I strode over, bent down to pick up the shoes, and suddenly wanted to step through the door.
Go out. Since it's a dream, you won't be hurt wherever you go. The worst thing you can do is wake up in fear.
I raised my feet, and Guan Baoling suddenly shouted: "No! No! There is water outside, you will die..."
My feet stopped in mid-air. I hesitated for a moment, then slowly reached forward and passed through the dark tower door. Sure enough, my fingertips touched the cold water first, then my fingers, palms, and wrists. There was really water outside, and it was
The three-dimensional water, my hand was pushed out from the side of the water, as if entering a huge piece of jelly.
"Hiss--" I heard the sound of sucking air from my teeth. I retracted my hand little by little, and smelled a strong smell of sea in my nose. The fact that my hands were wet was enough to prove that this
The hand has actually entered the water.
"Water...outside?" I jumped back a big step and shook my hands vigorously, as if there was something ominous on them.
How could we arrive at such a ridiculous place after clearly going all the way down the stairs - a glass house surrounded by water?
Guan Baoling put on her shoes and smiled helplessly: "Do you understand now? We are trapped, and we are trapped on the bottom of the sea. Outside the door, I have seen some deep-sea electric eels swimming around. Those creatures
It only appears below a depth of 800 meters, so our current location is at least 800 meters underwater."
I squatted down and stared at the transparent ground. The dark green seaweed was swaying like a monster's long hair, and groups of unknown fish were moving through the seaweed.
Under the 800-meter-deep sea water, it should be pitch black, but the faint white light emitted by this house can illuminate the nearby scenery. This feeling is like sitting on a simple submarine in an ocean amusement park and exploring the underwater world.
Same.
A question suddenly occurred to me: "Ms. Guan, have you noticed that we can't see the foundation at all? Without a foundation, where would we be? Wouldn't this pagoda continue to sink into the water endlessly...
"Even if those weird tower doors can block the entry of sea water, what about the exposed top of the tower? What safety guarantee is there?
Guan Baoling sat on the steps exhausted: "Don't ask me, I'm so tired. I just want a soft bed and a good sleep."
The ground is hard and cold, and the feeling of sitting on it is definitely not pleasant.
I cheered up, and if she was too tired to leave, I would carry her away, but this time I would go all the way up to see if I could get back to the top of the tower. My Qinggong skills can completely fly a person down the tower without a scratch.
He's not injured. In short, he can't wait to die here.
"Miss Guan, I will carry you to the top of the tower. We will be fine." I walked over and reached out to lift her up.
She closed her eyes and replied feebly: "Okay, I want to sleep for a while, I'm so tired..."
I climbed six floors from the transparent room. If nothing unexpected happened, this should be the first floor of the pagoda. But I was surprised to find that the stairs were gone and the top of this floor had become transparent glass. Not only
Glass, and squirming deep-sea purple crabs, squatting beside a clump of swimming anemones with their teeth and claws open, ready to hunt prey.
Within ten meters, you can only see small fish, seaweed, some fluorescent snails, and meandering sea sandworms - ten meters away, you can see a terrifying dark gray, which is the color of the deep sea.
original color.
Within an hour, I ran through every floor of the pagoda, but I never dared to step out of the pagoda door. Every doorway was pitch black, and without exception, there was cold sea water outside.
Guan Baoling has been in my arms and has fallen asleep deeply.
This is a strange place, with water everywhere, but people don't feel suffocated, and the light emitted from the stone walls is enough to illuminate the surrounding space, so that we will not be in darkness.
I took out the phone, but there was no communication signal at all, and I couldn't contact the outside world at all.
I hugged Guan Baoling tightly and slowly cleared my mind - "At the top of the tower, I saw the 'Tide of God' appear, and then I went down the tower. Everything went very smoothly from the top of the tower to the first floor. I should have been in the first place.
On the upper floor, I saw Toka and Master Shenbei, but they accidentally entered here. This should be the mysterious space that Tanye said, so is this space connected to the pagoda? Otherwise, how could I get up from the stairs in the tower?
Rush down directly?"
"How did I get in? Can I still get out? If... like the people who disappeared in the 'Tower of the Dead' in the past, there will never be a chance to see the light of day again. Is it a blessing to die with Guan Baoling?"
Guan Baoling moved in my arms and moved closer to my arms. Looking at her smooth forehead and trembling eyelashes, the fear in my heart was replaced by boundless happiness. I had to admit that I had liked her for a long time.
I fell in love with her, starting from the first time I met her at Xunfuyuan Villa.
Wang Jiangnan fell in love with her at first sight, so why didn’t I fall in love at first sight?
She is a "tycoon's woman" - I began to try to remove this label on her. She is a girl who is loved by everyone. She accepts whoever she wants and stays with whomever she wants.
