Chapter 1454 What is the purpose of step-by-step guidance?
Lu Chen looked at the door of the fortress in front of him and said, "I came here just to know the origin of this hairpin and what it is used for! Or, in other words, why it was given to you!"
"What if I say, you don't need to know?" the woman in the fortress said coldly.
"Then I have no choice but to go in and find you to find out."
The woman laughed inside the fortress, "I advise you to come in, otherwise you will regret it!"
Lu Chen put away his hairpin and entered the door with a leap.
When I came inside, I saw mirrors everywhere, and what was naturally shining on the mirrors was Lu's appearance, so at a glance, it was all me.
"Come in, but it will be difficult to get out." The woman's voice sounded around.
Chase Lu disagreed and said, "Do you think these mirrors can stump me?"
"These mirrors are sacred objects. Not to mention you, even if you are an out-of-body person, there is no chance of destroying them!" the woman said slowly.
Lu Chen shrugged, "What if I said that I can easily destroy these sacred weapons?"
"Don't be naive." The woman said in complete disbelief.
Lu Chen saw that the other party didn't believe it, so he didn't bother to continue talking nonsense with the other party, and instead released a stream of flames.
These flames shattered all the mirrors close to Lu Chen one by one.
Seeing the shattered mirror, the woman in the dark was startled.
Lu Chen stopped the flames and said, "Can we come out and chat now?"
At this time, a woman's shadow appeared in a mirror.
I saw a woman who was still charming, wearing purple gloves on both hands, and Lu Chen was confused on her face, "Why do you want to know about hairpins?"
"It has a lot to do with me!" Lu Chen said coldly.
The other party was confused for a while and said, "You have to tell me, otherwise I won't tell you!"
"If I said that the owner of this hairpin has something to do with me, would you believe it?" Lu Chen stared at the other party.
The other party was dubious, "The owner of this hairpin is a woman, and I have met her before and even interacted with her!"
"Have you seen her?" Lu Chen was a little surprised.
The other party hummed, and Lu Chen asked urgently, "Where is she now!"
"Before I answer you, I have to let you see something." After the other party finished speaking, he took out a small stone statue, and this stone statue looked like a woman.
Lu Chen looked at her and found that she looked very similar to his master. He said excitedly, "She gave this to you too!"
"Yes!" the other party hummed.
Lu Chen asked urgently, "Where is she now?"
"At the beginning, she gave this stone statue to me and said that if one day someone comes here with a hairpin, and whoever can make this stone statue shine, then I can tell that person where she is going." The woman said.
Tell the truth five to ten times.
When Lu Chen heard this, he immediately thought of everything the skeleton had done and what happened here, and frowned, "My master, where are you leading me to?"
"How's it going? Have you thought about it?" the woman asked.
"Okay!" Lu Chen stretched out his hand, ready to look at the stone statue.
But the woman said, "Before I give it to you, I have to make a statement."
"What is the statement?" Lu Chen didn't know what the other party's intention was.
The other party said, "My name is Huang Gu. If you are bitten by this stone statue later, then remember, it is not me who kills you, but yourself!"
"Do you think it will bite me back?" Lu Chen looked at the person who called herself Huang Gu.
Huang Gu explained, "The woman on this stone statue told me that if anyone attempts to forcefully touch this stone statue, they will be devoured until their soul is shattered!"
"That will definitely not be me." Lu Chen said confidently.
Huang Gu looked at Lu Chen and said, "I have learned your skills before you entered the town, but you have to think clearly. Once you die, you will lose everything!"
"Come on." Lu Chen said bluntly.
Huang Gu had no choice but to throw the stone statue out, and Lu Chen grabbed the stone statue with one hand, and then the stone statue released a black light that enveloped Lu Chen.
Huanggu explained, "The black light of this stone statue will corrode people, so its appearance means that the test has begun!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, the stone statue turned into golden light and flashed, and Huang Gu's eyes widened, "Are you really the person she is waiting for?"
"Can you tell me now, where is she?" Lu Chen stared at Huang Gu.
Huang Gu waved her hand, and the surrounding mirrors disappeared, and then a long black tunnel appeared, "Come in, I will explain to you."
Without thinking, Lu Chen leaped forward and rushed into the tunnel. After walking out of the tunnel, he appeared in a hall, and here, Lu Chen saw Huang Gu's true form.
However, Huang Gu's face was wrinkled and her energy was completely gone. She was sitting on a chair like a sick old lady.
Lu Chen looked curious, "Is this you?"
"Yes, and every year, I become weaker." Huang Gu said helplessly.
After hearing this, Chase Lu said, "Then you should be of a certain age."
"No, I'm just under a curse." Huang Gu replied.
"Curse?" Lu Chen was confused.
"Well, this kind of curse requires me to live a little longer every year. If things go on like this, I will get older and older."
Lu Chen became solemn, and Huang Gu continued, "Back then, this woman said that she had a way to break my curse, but in the early stage, I had to help her with something."
Lu Chen looked at the stone statue she was pointing to and asked suspiciously, "Wait for me?"
"Yes, wait for the person recognized by this stone statue." After Huang Gu said this, she looked up and down at Lu Chen, wondering why the woman was waiting for Lu Chen.
"What about her?"
"She went to the desolate palace in desolate source."
"Desolate Palace?" Lu Chen was curious about where this place was.
"The Huanggong is a mysterious place guarded by Liangzhongtian and Wuzhongtian. But what she did there, I don't know. I only know that she asked me to tell you to go there to find her."
"When did it happen?"
"One hundred thousand years ago," Huang Gu said after thinking for a while.
Lu Chen frowned, "It's been a hundred thousand years, and I don't know how she is doing now."
"Anyway, I have done everything that needs to be said and done. I hope that after you find the woman, she will fulfill her promise and break my curse." Huang Gu sighed.
Lu Chen nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
"I will ask my people to give you a ride to ensure that you can reach the deserted palace safely."
"Your people?"
"Yes, you can go out and I will explain it." After Huang Gu said this, she handed the stone statue to Lu Chen, who picked up the stone statue and turned around to leave.
Huang Gu sighed secretly, "I don't know what that woman is up to."
Not only Huang Gu, Lu Chen also wanted to know what his master was going to do.
Just like that, Lu Chen walked out of the fortress with doubts and came outside. Huo Wu Zixiao and others breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Lu Chen come out safely.
Ban Wutian and others were curious as to why Lu Chen was fine.
Not only Ban Wutian, but also many people present wanted to know why their mayor didn't take action against Lu Chen.
