Chapter 228 Code-named Bat (34): The Four Choices of the Door of Life and Death
I screamed in pain and covered Cheng Sulan's neck with both hands, but the blood kept pouring out of her neck and couldn't be stopped at all.
"No, no, no." I shouted, tears falling down.
"Lu An, Lu An, wake up, wake up." In a daze, I heard someone shouting my name, and then I raised my head, and saw that the scene in front of me changed. Cheng Sulan did not commit suicide and bleed. In the scene, there was no look of Chen Dian snickering, and there was no scene of Ye Mei being killed. There was only Cheng Sulan looking at me anxiously. Behind her, Cheng Sumin, Shen Yao and Acheng were also looking at me.
"I, what's wrong with me?" I sat up straight.
"You were illuminated by the light of the Pearl of Eternity and had an illusion. In fact, all of us were illuminated, but you were at the front and suffered the most severe impact, so the illusion will be more real. Fortunately, I woke you up in time, otherwise I don’t know what will happen yet.” The guardian came from behind and spoke.
"Where is Chen Dian?" I asked.
"Run away, you should enter the chamber door of the tomb in front." The guardian said.
"So that's it. The scene I saw just now was too dangerous." I hugged Cheng Sulan and said with lingering fear. The guardian was right. I saw Cheng Sulan commit suicide in front of me in the scene at that time. Maybe next I will They would all be unable to accept it and choose to commit suicide. It seems that the light power of this Pearl of Eternity is really too evil.
The guardian took us to the front. There were four stone doors in front of us. Each stone door was carved with different patterns. He pointed to the patterns on it and said, "These four doors are the inner doors of the tomb, but there is only one of them." The right door is the right one, and the rest are either turning into other exits, the death door, or the life door out of the tomb. Chen Dian doesn’t know which one he went to, so it’s hard for us to judge what we should do next.”
"Chen Dian took great pains to enter this ancient tomb because of the secret on the parchment. Will he leave easily? Absolutely not, and I believe that Chen Dian must have investigated everything here before he came in. So his purpose is naturally very clear, which is the magic of immortality on the parchment, and he will not give up. He must know which is the right door and enter inside." Shen Yao said.
"Then how do we choose? How do we know which door is the real door? Which door is the fake door!" Cheng Sumin looked at the guardian and asked.
"Don't ask me. I'm just a guardian. I'm not familiar with everything here. I only know that the living gate here is the leftmost one. I don't know what the other three gates are." The guardian shook his head and said. .
"Then we can only try one by one. If we exclude the door of death, the chance is 1/2. I think this way, we work in pairs, one person in front and the other person in the back. If we find that the door is wrong , the people behind him quit immediately, and then told the others." Shen Yao came up with an idea.
"It's okay, but if it turns out that the person from the Death Gate may fall into it, we need to come and rescue him." The guardian nodded.
"Wouldn't that be dangerous?" Acheng asked.
"Yes, there is indeed danger, but there is no other way. So Ada and I entered separately. If one of us discovers the door of death, the danger to others can be avoided for a long time." The guardian looked at it. Ada said.
"Okay, I understand." Ada nodded.
"But this is inappropriate, isn't it?" The words of the guardian and Ada made me a little bit unbearable.
"We are the guardians of this place, and we are ready to sacrifice at any time to protect everything here. Besides, Chen Dian came here to destroy everything here. Even if we lose our lives, we can't let him succeed. What's more, you are following When we come here, we have to be responsible for your safety, so don't say anything anymore. There is only one death door here, which means that at least one of Ada and I will be fine, which is enough." The guardian has already done it. The decision was made and he told us.
"Okay, let's do this without further delay. In case Chen Dian has any other mishaps inside." Seeing that the guardian was so determined, we couldn't say anything else.
The Sheng Gate is on the far left, so there is no need to go there. For safety reasons, we assigned personal choices among the three gates. The guardian will be with Cheng Sumin, A Da and Cheng Sulan, Shen Yao and I, and Acheng. The allocation is The guardian and Ah Da brought two women respectively to at least ensure that they were fine. As men, Shen Yao, Acheng and I would naturally choose to rush forward if we were to encounter the door of death.
After we selected the three groups, I looked at Cheng Sulan. Although there should be no problem according to our current arrangement, it is clear that Cheng Sulan definitely hopes to be with me. Similarly, Acheng and Cheng Sumin also seemed It's a bit of a pity. However, our arrangement has also taken everyone's overall safety into consideration, so we don't care about the long-term love between each other.
Everyone walked in directly according to the assigned door number.
I walked into the fourth gate with Shen Yao and Acheng. For safety reasons, the three of us lined up in a row, with Shen Yao at the front, me in the middle, and Acheng at the back.
Inside the door was a corridor, surrounded by darkness, but fortunately we held a flashlight. The scene in front of us was very bright under the light of the flashlight, and we could even see the scene in the distance.
"I don't think Chen Dian has ever been through this door." Shen Yao looked around and said.
"Why?" Acheng asked.
"Look at the situation on the ground. It's dark all year round. There's also seepage from groundwater. A thin layer of moss has formed on the ground. When we walk over, we will definitely leave footprints. If Chen Dian had come in, there will definitely be footprints on the ground. His footprints, so I suspect that Chen Dian has never been here at all." Shen Yao analyzed.
"That makes sense, so should we continue?" Acheng asked.
"For safety's sake, I think we should go back and pick up the guardians. Since no one has come in here, it is definitely not the place we are looking for, so we can exit first." I thought for a while and said.
"That's good. At least it can prove that this place is definitely not a living place, otherwise there wouldn't be any footprints on the ground for so long." Shen Yao agreed to my proposal.
Acheng also agreed.
So, the three of us withdrew, and Acheng and I went to the second and third gates respectively. Because Cheng Sulan and Cheng Sumin were inside, their lives and deaths were uncertain, which was heart-wrenching...
