Like dominoes, the crack effect in the palace continues to intensify. Starting from the stone chair, the entire palace floor is cracked. The ground is constantly sinking and collapsing. But strangely, the ground is collapsing, and the walls of the palace are collapsing.
But it was not affected.
But at this time, everyone's minds were not on the wall and they had no time to care.
Fortunately, Feng Yi was well prepared and immediately asked Xiao Qi to carry He Yingqiu and Xiao Ke into the air. Seeing that the two children were fine, Luo Sang and Zhang Yunyi jumped up and jumped to the side of the statue.
The collapse lasted for half a stick of incense and finally stopped. The ground was uneven, and in some places there were cracks more than ten meters deep, like a devil's open mouth, which made people shudder.
"Is everyone okay?"
Feng Yi asked with concern.
Several people shook their heads and asked, "What on earth is going on?"
"It should have something to do with this bead."
Feng Yi pointed at the bead and pursed his lips and said, "However, I don't see anything extraordinary about this bead."
He Yingqiu said with some displeasure: "Daozhang Feng, that monster must be trying to harm us and lure us here with a useless broken bead. We can't spare it when we go out!"
"It has been disabled by me, and it will be very difficult to recover within a few months. But you are right, it is harmful to people's hearts and has even killed people. Since it is still evil, let it disappear forever."
Feng Yi was also a little unhappy in his heart.
Just when a few people were about to leave the palace, a sudden change occurred, and a strange clicking sound suddenly sounded in the palace.
Everyone turned around and inspected the circle carefully. Xiao Ke pointed at the statue and shouted loudly: "Master, look!"
Feng Yi also noticed that the iron sculpture outside the statue was cracking bit by bit. He stood at the front, blocking everyone with his body, ready to take action at any time.
As the iron sculpture fell away bit by bit, white feathers appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Only after most of the iron sculpture fell off did everyone discover that there was another mystery hidden inside the statue.
This is an animal covered with white feathers, exactly like the statue, except that the statue is dead, but the animal seems to be alive.
Everyone's expressions were a little solemn. When the animal stretched out its bat-like wings behind it, all the iron sculptures fell to the ground.
This animal is alive!
"Mr. Feng, this, this is actually a living thing?!"
Zhang Yunyi changed his expression and said in surprise.
Feng Yi frowned and said, "I didn't notice this when I got close to the statue just now.
In this case, Luo Sang, Taoist Zhang, you retreat first, I will stay here to check the situation."
"good."
This was not the time to act curious. Luo Sang and Zhang Yunyi did not hesitate and walked little by little outside the palace. At this moment, an old and dull voice sounded in the main hall: "After so many years, I didn't expect that I could wake up again.
...This friend, did you save me?"
One of the animal's eyes still looks hollow, its mouth is tightly sewn together, and it's unclear where the sound comes from.
But Feng Yi was surprised to find that the beads in his hand were changing color little by little.
The strange thing is that only the upper part of the bead turned white, while the lower part was still as dark as ink and charcoal.
"I, Feng Yi, came here accidentally. I didn't expect to disturb your retreat."
The other party's voice was gentle and did not seem to be malicious, so Feng Yi was not in a hurry to take action.
"Retreat?"
The old voice said with a touch of bitterness: "Friend, you guessed wrong, I am trapped here."
"oh?"
Feng Yi asked curiously: "Can you tell me more carefully?"
"Since Your Excellency can rescue me from the statue, it means that you and I are destined. You are my benefactor, so naturally you have nothing to hide. But the damage here is very serious, let's go out and talk about it."
As he spoke, the animal flapped its wings, flew out of the palace, and stopped on the open ground.
Feng Yi and the others looked at each other and walked out of the palace.
The animal was very tall, more than three meters tall. Feng Yi, the tallest among them, was like a little doll in front of him. He had to raise his head to communicate with the other person.
The animal is also aware of this. It hides its only leg inside its body and supports itself with the wings behind it. It is a bit like "Ge You Lying", which looks a bit weird but also quite interesting.
"Sorry, I'm naturally taller."
The animal spoke.
"It's okay."
Feng Yi looked at the animal's big empty eyes and couldn't help but ask: "Your eyes..."
"What you hold in your hand are my eyes."
The animal said calmly.
"ah?"
Even Feng Yi was a little surprised now. He looked at the half white and half black beads in his hand and said, "Are these your eyes? I'm sorry, I didn't take them off on purpose."
Having said that, Feng Yi felt that it was ridiculous. Who puts his eyes in his mouth?
"It doesn't matter. The eyes have been removed and naturally have no effect. Now I use my body to sense your position..."
The animal shook its ears like dragon beards and said, "Do you want to hear a story?"
If it was a story, it must be something that happened to the animal itself. Seeing that the other party did not take the initiative to ask for his eyes back, Feng Yi was not in a hurry to return them to the other party and said, "I'm all ears."
"A long time ago, there was an isolated area, where a group of hard-working and simple creatures lived, and they had a patron saint named Day and Night."
The animal said slowly.
Patronus?
day and night?
Feng Yi listened with great interest, and the others continued to listen patiently.
"It's said to be one patron saint, or it can be said to be two."
The animal explained: "The one who protects the living beings during the day is called day, and the one who protects the living beings at night is called night. They share the same body and protect the living beings day and night."
oh?
Feng Yiyi raised his sword eyebrows and couldn't help but said: "This patron saint has a dual personality?"
"You can think of it this way."
The animal shook his head and said: "Day and night have shared the same body since they appeared in this world.
However, day and night have different thoughts, different personalities, and different life trajectories.
It can be said that he has a dual personality, but it can also be understood that he is an intimate brother."
Everyone was very surprised to see animals say this. After living for so long, this was the first time they had heard of such an existence.
But they also vaguely realized that the animal in front of them should only be one of day or night.
"excuse me."
Feng Yi interrupted the animal's words and said: "This day and night is related to you, right?"
The animal nodded and said: "Yes, I am the day in this story."
Everyone felt strange. They could guess that there must be something wrong with night for day to become like this. But day and night clearly share the same body. Now that day is here, where did night go?
