Chapter 867 [Deep into the Underground Palace] (Part 2)
Qiqi walked towards the stone bridge, Hu Xiaotian followed closely, and did not forget to tell Ji Feihua and Liu Yuzhang: "Pay attention to the patterns on the bridge deck, follow our footsteps, and never take a wrong step, otherwise the bridge deck will collapse
.”
Although Ji Feihua and Liu Yuzhang are both top experts, they did not dare to be careless and follow the footsteps of the two people in front of them.
Qiqi asked: "How did Eunuch Liu discover this place?" She learned from Hu Xiaotian that it was Liu Yuzhang who first discovered the secret of this palace.
Liu Yuzhang said: "Everything will leave clues. The first person to build the secret realm of the palace was Zhuge Yunchun, the soldier sage. The uncanny workmanship of these buildings is completely beyond the imagination of the world. Zhuge Yunchun must have been scared after he built the two secret realms under the palace.
, so he destroyed the drawings, but he left a lot of manuscripts before that. Our family searched hard in the palace for decades before we found it here."
Ji Feihua said coldly: "Eunuch Liu is really a thoughtful person!"
Liu Yuzhang Jiejie said with a smile: "You can't compare with Eunuch Ji, otherwise our family wouldn't have been forced into desperation by Eunuch Ji."
Hu Xiaotian was very aware of the past grudges between the two of them, and was worried that they would clash as soon as they met. Fortunately, both of them showed enough restraint, not because they had put aside their grudges, but because they were driven by a common purpose.
Next, put aside the hatred for the moment.
After successfully walking across the long bridge, they came to the front of the Qibao Glazed Pagoda. The four of them circled the tower and returned to the door. Qiqi sighed and said, "I have never seen this lock before. I don't know."
How to break it." When she and Hu Xiaotian came here last year, they were blocked by this lock, and this time Qiqi still couldn't break it.
Ji Feihua said: "Let me try!"
Hu Xiaotian's heart moved. In fact, Ji Feihua and Qiqi each understood one of the two skulls. The two sisters should complement each other.
Liu Yuzhang's eyes were gloomy as he watched Ji Feihua deftly unlock the pattern lock. With a rumbling sound, the tower door slowly opened. He said sinisterly: "It seems that Eunuch Ji is also a descendant of the Destiny One."
Hu Xiaotian said, "Didn't Eunuch Liu already enter the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda? Naturally, this lock cannot stop Eunuch Liu."
Liu Yuzhang sighed and said: "My lord, you think highly of me. When you entered this pagoda, someone had to guide you. Our family didn't have this ability. What's more, the pattern locks are ever-changing, and they are never repeated every time."
Hu Xiaotian secretly thought that this old guy might not be telling the truth. He had clearly said before that the skull he stole was obtained from the Qibao Glazed Pagoda, and now he said that someone was leading the way, but now was not the time to get to the bottom of it.
Ji Feihua entered the tower first and used voice transmission to let Hu Xiaotian follow at the end. So Liu Yuzhang entered behind Ji Feihua, then Qiqi, and finally Hu Xiaotian.
After entering the Qibao Glazed Pagoda, Hu Xiaotian discovered that the tower was completely hollow. Although it looked like there were seven floors from the outside, there were no stairs leading to the top when entering the tower. The interior of the pagoda was radiant, as bright as day.
Ji Feihua looked up at the top of the tower. Although she didn't see the stairs, she saw a blue spiral spiraling up from the ground and extending to the top of the tower.
Qiqi's face became paler as she looked at the spiral.
While the two of them were paying attention to the internal structure of the pagoda, Hu Xiaotian's eyes were always fixed on Liu Yuzhang. This person was absolutely untrustworthy. Liu Yuzhang was just a clone who had awakened his own consciousness. If all his actions now were motivated by his heart,
Being driven by desire is not terrible, but if his behavior is controlled by other forces, it will be an extremely terrible thing.
Liu Yuzhang's eyes were very intense, and he seemed to be full of novelty about everything. Is this the first time he has entered the Qibao Glazed Pagoda? If everything is true, then why did he say that he had entered the pagoda before?
Hu Xiaotian coughed heavily, and his voice brought the three people who were immersed in the novel scene in the tower back to reality, and the three people looked at him at the same time.
Hu Xiaotian said: "There is nothing in this tower. It seems that it has been visited by others. Should we look for the entrance to the underground palace?"
Liu Yuzhang nodded and said yes repeatedly.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Eunuch Liu has been here once, so he naturally knows where the entrance to the underground palace is!"
Liu Yuzhang's expression looked a little embarrassed. He coughed dryly and said: "I have been here before, but the structure in this tower is ever-changing. When our family came in last time, there were stairs to go up, but now it has completely changed."
The light inside the tower suddenly turned green, and the surrounding area of the tower became transparent. They could even clearly see the scene outside through the surrounding walls. Everything in front of them added evidence to Liu Yuzhang's words.
Qiqi said: "It is ever-changing, and the person who built this tower is absolutely extraordinary!"
Ji Feihua noticed that the two skulls in his hands shone brightly, and the blue spiral in the tower also began to rotate.
Hu Xiaotian secretly screamed that it was strange. He felt a little dizzy when he saw the spiral. He lowered his head and looked at the ground, only to see two projections of different light and dark appearing on the ground, shaped like two Tai Chi instruments.
Ji Feihua looked at Qiqi at this moment, and she handed one of the skulls to Qiqi.
Although the two people did not speak, they seemed to understand each other. They stood in the two projections holding a skull respectively. The two skulls were filled with blue light, and the spiral light spiraling upward became stronger and stronger, and finally turned into a dazzling light.
of white light.
Qiqi and Ji Feihua slowly placed the skulls on the ground. Under the white light cast from the top of the tower, the blue light of the two skulls became brighter and brighter, and dust-like smoke spread out from the skulls.
Blue light mist and white light beams danced spirally in the tower, and the blue light on the two skulls continued to expand to the surroundings. Soon the ground under their feet was completely covered by blue light mist, and the blue light mist escaping from the two skulls interacted with each other.
Intertwined, integrated, inseparable.
When the blue light completely enveloped the ground, the rhythm of the white light on the top of the tower began to change again. The movement of the beam caused a series of light and dark gratings to be formed in the tower. The ground under your feet formed a mosaic of blue and black. The light and shadow undulated in a few seconds.
The illusion of undulating waves formed in people's eyes. A vortex with a diameter of about a foot appeared in the center. Then the vortex expanded rapidly and spread to their feet. The light and shadow faded. At this time, the light on the two skulls dimmed.
The arc-shaped beam at the top of the tower also went out at the same time.
The entire Qibao Glazed Tower suddenly fell into darkness.
None of the four people in the tower spoke. They could hear each other's breathing. In the darkness, Qiqi nervously grabbed Hu Xiaotian's big hand. After a brief silence, a blue halo lit up at the edge, and then the halo brightened and disappeared in a progressive manner.
The method rapidly spreads toward the center.
The ground beneath his feet began to slowly subside, and Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "I hope it's not the road to hell."
The light projected upward from below, illuminating Liu Yuzhang's face in an eerie and terrifying way. He said sinisterly: "You'd better not make such a joke!"
"You're scared?"
Liu Yuzhang forced out a disdainful smile.
Ji Feihua said calmly: "What is there to fear about people who have died once?" Her eyes fell on Qiqi's face. Qiqi bit her lips tightly, her expression was extremely nervous, and she even closed her eyes, dying.
Holding Hu Xiaotian's arm tightly.
Hu Xiaotian smiled at her, but Ji Feihua said to him through secret voice transmission: "You keep an eye on Qiqi. If she does anything unusual, stop her first."
The person Hu Xiaotian was most suspicious of was Liu Yuzhang. He glanced at Liu Yuzhang and hinted that he was the real danger to Ji Feihua. Ji Feihua naturally understood what he meant.
Although Liu Yuzhang did not look at them, he seemed to have guessed what they were thinking at the moment, and whispered: "The more times this happens, the more we should work together, don't you think?"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Eunuch Liu is absolutely right, but I don't know whether there is a treasure or an enemy hidden here?"
The ground beneath their feet suddenly stopped sinking, and two skulls that had lost their light slowly rose up, floating ten feet above the ground, and then slowly floated one after another into the darkness in the distance.
Hu Xiaotian didn't feel anything yet, but Qiqi held on to herself tightly, her nails almost digging into his muscles. On the other hand, Ji Feihua also held his wrist, transmitting sound into the secret passage: "Strange, I feel like I'm almost
Gonna float."
Hu Xiaotian didn't feel anything strange. Looking at the two floating skulls, he thought to himself, could the space here have an impact similar to weightlessness on the destined people?
The three of them followed the direction of the skull's movement side by side. Before they had gone too far, they saw a wall of liquid floating in front of them.
The two skulls did not encounter any obstruction and entered directly through the liquid wall.
Several people stopped in front of the wall. Through the transparent barrier, they could see the rippling water in it. The back of the wall seemed to be filled with blue liquid. After the two skulls entered it, the light shone brightly. After a while, the light gradually dimmed.
The skull began to sink slowly.
Liu Yuzhang stretched out his hand and tried to pass through the liquid wall, but although he could stretch it and deform it, he could not penetrate the barrier.
Ji Feihua let go of Hu Xiaotian's arm and walked over. She stretched out her finger and lightly tapped it on the liquid wall. It was like a stone thrown into the middle of a lake, causing ripples centered on her finger.
Liu Yuzhang looked at Ji Feihua in surprise and murmured: "It seems that only the descendants of the Destined One can pass through this barrier."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Don't go in!" For some reason, an inexplicable fear suddenly arose in his heart.
Ji Feihua retracted her finger, and Qiqi also let go of Hu Xiaotian's arm at this time. She slowly walked towards the barrier, the expression on her face became peaceful and calm, and she no longer showed the fear just now. Qiqi carefully moved her finger
Stretching towards the barrier, before his fingers touched the liquid barrier, he looked at Ji Feihua.
Hu Xiaotian always felt that something was wrong. He even hoped that everything would end here and the exploration would end. He whispered: "There may be danger inside."
