It was dark outside, but there was a bright light not far away, as if someone had lit a fire. According to the distance of the light, the person should be on the opposite side of the river bank. From time to time, there were several vague yells and curses. Then there was a green light flashing around,
It was the flickering light of that person's magic weapon, and he seemed to be having a fierce fight with someone.
"That person should have come in with you, right? He shouldn't have lit a fire. All the monsters in the river would climb up at night, and he would be besieged." Old Tan said calmly. People on the other side didn't know that there was night in the valley.
Monsters will appear, and when he catches fire, it is equivalent to completely exposing his position to all monsters.
Mu Yu didn't know what the so-called monster was, but he was glad that he met Lao Tan, otherwise he would probably be fighting the monster down there tonight. That person was in the Nascent Soul stage, so he could insist on it, and he was only a cultivator in the Golden Core stage.
Why, how can I persist for so long?
"Can we help him?" Although that person had a very bad attitude towards Mu Yu, if we could stay together in this hellish place, we would have more chances of survival.
"Help? How to help? If he is smart, he will put out the fire, otherwise more and more monsters will be attracted, and he will definitely die by then." Old Tan shook his head and retreated into his cave again. So
It's a long distance, it can't fly, and it can't see the situation clearly, so you won't know who it will hit when the time comes.
Mu Yu thought about it, and now he was really watching the fire from afar. The fire was still there, and the man would not be able to escape the danger.
Fortunately, after a while, the man seemed to realize this problem. The fire on the other side suddenly disappeared, leaving only the light of the magic weapon. After a while, the light of the magic weapon also disappeared. I don’t know if the man deliberately didn’t
Whether it emitted light or was buried in the monster's mouth, the surroundings returned to tranquility. Mu Yu sat back in the cave. The only solution for now was to rest first and make plans for tomorrow.
Mu Yu slept very poorly that night. He tossed and turned for a long time before he fell asleep. Then he had an inexplicable dream. He dreamed that he was trapped in this ghost place for the rest of his life. In the end, he couldn't stand the loneliness and wanted to commit suicide.
.Then he saw Feng Haochen coming to stop him. Before he could be happy, the people from Sanzhong Palace came over and Feng Haochen was captured by them. Mu Yu stretched out his hand to save him, but then his hand touched the cave wall and pulled him away.
The pain woke me up.
He turned around and went back to sleep. When he woke up the next day, he had no memory of the dream at all.
The sky was bright and there was still heavy fog around. Lao Tan woke Mu Yu up and told him that it was almost noon. Mu Yu looked outside and thought it was early morning. He stayed in the cave and couldn't stretch his arms and legs, so they
Then he climbed down. On the bank of the river, Muyu opened his eyes wide to see clearly the situation on the other side. Unfortunately, the visibility was too low and his field of vision was severely suppressed.
Mu Yu went to the river and washed his face. The cold water made him sober up a little. He wanted to try again, but Lao Tan told him that it was futile, but Mu Yu was unwilling to give in. He ran forward this time.
, needless to say, came full circle and came back.
"I have tried it many times. This maze is too powerful and there is absolutely no way I can use it." Lao Tan said calmly. He was unwilling to give in. After walking dozens of times, he finally became discouraged. Now he has
He was used to it, and he knew that if he wanted Mu Yu to accept this situation, he could only wait for him to go through it a few more times to make him give up on this idea.
After Mu Yu walked two more times, he began to feel irritable. It was not an option to continue like this. Lao Tan had walked by so many times, and he was much more experienced than me, but he still didn't go out. It was even more impossible for him to go out if he was so stupid.
.He sat down and practiced the Luochen Mental Technique to calm himself down.
Xiao Shuai shook his tail and said: "I remember this formation. If I guessed correctly, this formation should be a mirror formation. I heard the old man with a white beard talk about it a long time ago."
"What is the mirror array?" Mu Yu asked quickly.
Xiaoshuai tilted his head, thought for a long time, and then explained: "To put it in layman's terms, the mirror array is a straight road with a mirror placed at both ends. If you walk along a road, you will walk directly into the mirror, and then
Come out of the other mirror. In this way, you will keep walking back and forth on this road. If you want to go out, you must find these two mirrors."
A bright light flashed in Mu Yu's mind, and he suddenly understood how to break this formation!
He deliberately walked around the river bank again. The difference from before was that this time he counted the steps.
He began to calm down and think about this matter. First, he walked about a hundred steps away from the green poisonous mist before throwing away the vine. He walked about 2,645 steps from the vine to here, and from here to
It takes one thousand three hundred and fifty steps to walk forward to the vines, which means that it takes about four thousand steps to walk around the maze.
Every formation must have a boundary. As long as you find this boundary, it will be easy to find a way out. This boundary is what Xiaoshuai calls the two mirrors of the mirror array.
But how to determine the location of this boundary?
Mu Yu took a step and stopped to observe the changes around him. If it was a border, then there would definitely be some flaws on the left and right sides of the border, such as faults in the soil and stones on the ground.
Muyu spent a day searching the ground for four thousand steps, trying to find something wrong, but he was a little disappointed.
It seems that the organizers may have noticed this problem long ago and erased the abnormality.
"By the way, find a marker!"
Mu Yu patted his thigh, and he suddenly thought of a way. This section of road is a straight line, about three steps to one meter, which is more than a thousand meters. If there is a distinguishable landmark in the center of this section of road, then he only needs to
Walk backwards facing this marker. When you can't see this marker, it means you have passed the critical line and returned to the starting point. Logically speaking, the marker should be behind you at this time, so you can determine the critical line.
He quickly told Xiaoshuai his thoughts, but Xiaoshuai blinked his big innocent eyes and asked: "Then what are you looking for as a marker? The fog here is so heavy, and people and animals can be seen two meters away without knowing each other. How do you expect it to be possible?"
what did you see."
Mu Yu opened his mouth, but was discouraged before he could be happy. Xiaoshuai was right, it was foggy here during the day, and even if you set a fire during the day, you couldn't see it! At night, there was still a possibility. The life on the other side of the river that night
Fire, they could see a vague firelight from a long distance, and the firelight was still very penetrating at night.
However, there are monsters at night, and the light of fire will draw the monsters in the river ashore, which means that lighting a fire must bear the risk of being attacked by monsters. Mu Yu has not yet learned how strong the monsters in the river are, but according to
According to Lao Tan's description of the monsters, the monsters in the river are definitely not vegetarian little sheep. This is certain. Lighting a fire at night is undoubtedly equivalent to playing with fire, and the situation will only get worse.
Mu Yu only thought of this method so far. He ran back to discuss his findings with Lao Tan. After listening to Mu Yu's explanation for a long time, Lao Tan finally understood what Mu Yu wanted to express, and hope suddenly appeared in his eyes.
look.
"You're such a genius! I've been stuck for more than half a year and haven't thought of this method. Please tell me how to implement your plan, and we can try it."
Lao Tan is actually very afraid of the monsters in the river, but if he can't find a way out after being trapped for so long, he will be trapped here for the rest of his life. Instead of doing this, he might as well give it a try! As long as he can get out
, he is willing to try no matter how dangerous it is.
"The only thing we can use as a symbol now is flame. There are no trees here, so we can only use the Dan Fire Stone. The Dan Fire Stone requires spiritual power to maintain the flame, which means that there needs to be a person in the center of the road to maintain the flame of the Dan Fire Stone.
If the flame is too small, it may not be visible, so the flame must be made as large as possible. But this will also cause serious problems. The flame will attract monsters, and the person holding the Dan Fire Stone will be very dangerous."
Mu Yu hesitated for a moment and pointed out the loopholes in this plan seriously. He could actually control the burning of plants, but if many plants that shouldn't exist suddenly appeared here, it would arouse Lao Tan's suspicion. No matter when,
Mu Yu didn't want to expose his ability to control trees.
His plan is not perfect, because the person who maintains the flame has to bear great risks and needs to face the attacks of all monsters. He may even be buried in the belly of the monster and become the delicacy of the monster. Once something happens to that person, the Dan Fire Stone will
Without the blessing of spiritual power, it will be extinguished immediately, and the only marker will lose its effect.
And the other person who wants to determine the critical line must walk in the dark. If you walk in the dark, you will inevitably encounter monsters. If you can't see the monsters, you will definitely not be any better than another person.
It can be said that the risks faced by these two people are actually the same. Once one of them makes a mistake, the entire plan will be ruined.
Lao Tan also thought of this. In fact, he immediately realized that he must be the one who maintains the flame. The person who maintains the elixir and fire stone is equivalent to telling all the monsters his exact location and must fight with the monsters.
With his high strength, he can survive the siege of monsters for a while longer, and his spiritual power is stronger than Mu Yu's, so the flames will be stronger.
But can Mu Yu avoid other monsters in the dark? You must know that these monsters only come out at night, so their night vision ability is very strong. Mu Yu only has the strength of the Jindan stage to be able to withstand these monsters.
attack?
Neither of them spoke. This plan is very risky, and the consequences of any accident would be disastrous. If something happens to the person maintaining the flame, the person looking for the critical line will lose their sense of direction. You can't fly here, and you can't find it in the dark night.
A place to stay is waiting for death; if something happens to the person looking for the critical line, and the person maintaining the flame cannot be sure whether something happened to the other person, then should he continue to maintain the flame or find a place to hide?
"The most important point is that even if I find the critical line, I am not sure that I can crack this formation." Mu Yu finally said, pushing the plan into a dilemma. This is like a semi-final, even if you
If you enter the finals, you are not completely sure that you can win the championship. But if you don't enter the finals, you have no hope of winning the championship.
"I want to give it a try." Old Tan said solemnly.
He has been trapped here for too long. If he doesn't try, he will never get out. The spiritual energy here is so thin. If he wants to practice to the out-of-body stage, he will probably never reach it in his lifetime. He must try. He may die if he tries, but he will definitely die if he doesn't try.
Will wait to die.
Mu Yu nodded, he had to try too, he still had a lot of time waiting for him to squander, but he couldn't afford to be stuck in a place where nothing could happen.
After the two decided, the next step was to discuss more details. After everything was confirmed, they began to recharge their batteries and wait quietly for the night to fall.
