Chapter 254: Dangerous
The channel has been exhausted, but there is no door obstruction in front of it, but there is a fork in a road leading to different directions.
"I said you didn't bring the wrong place, did you? Do you know how to get there?" Long Aotian kept shouting at Rong Xing. Rong Xing once said that the first door was at the end of the passage, but now the passage is exhausted, but there is no door mentioned by Rong Xing, which makes him dissatisfied with Rong Xing.
"Enough! Now is not the time to say that!" He made a cold promise and gave Long Aotian no face at all. He said, "If you want to leave here, cooperate with us, otherwise everyone can't get out!"
"Bang!" Long Aotian smiled disdainly, but he didn't say more.
"Rong Xing, how's it going?" The promise looked at Rong Xing. He was the only one who knew something about the situation outside the stone room. Now he still chooses to believe him even if he made some wrong promises.
"I have been closed for more than two years, and the layout of the four-pole door may have changed. I probably don't need the situation I knew before. I just thought of this possibility. This is the worst situation. Rong Xing's face was ugly, and the layout of the four pole gate changed, which was unexpected and put everyone in crisis.
The promise murmured: "In more than two years, it is not surprising that there have been some changes in the layout, but it should still be the four doors. You understand their role, so you are still very important to us. Now we can't go back here, we have to take one step - although it's a little risky. What do you think?"
Rong Xing said, "I can't think of a better way. I don't know what everyone's opinion is?"
Hongluan, Dashan, Xiaodi, Yun Feiyang and Wei Ruoting all nodded in agreement, including Long Aotian. They have no way out. If they want to leave, they have to take risks.
"Then let's go and follow closely. I don't think this place is that simple." Promise walked to the front and said, "I'm exploring the way in front of you. Follow me closely!"
Yun Feiyang has a good impression of this promise and is willing to lead the way in front of everyone under unknown circumstances. If there is danger, he will be the first to encounter it. Such behavior is rare, and there is no doubt that this is a trustworthy person.
Everyone followed the promise and continued to move forward. Although the place was also very dark, because it was relatively open, it was a little brighter than before. Even without fire, they could barely see the way forward, and Emperor Xiao extinguished the fire in his hand here.
There are black stone walls everywhere, and the forks are continuous and winding, which is completely different from the previous single straight. However, none of the traps expected by the people appeared, and everyone followed the promise for a long time and remained safe all the way.
"Stop!" The pace of the promise suddenly stopped, and the people behind him also stopped.
"What's wrong?" The emperor asked innocently and puzzledly.
"I feel that these channels are very strange." Promise frowned, walked to a stone wall, and reached out to touch the stone above.
Yun Feiyang pulled Wei Ruoting and asked, "Can you see anything?"
The promise murmured: "These stones, probably the same as the stone chamber we were locked in before, seem to be the same stone."
Yun Feiyang glanced at the stone wall and felt that it was indeed similar, but the appearance alone was not enough to be sure.
"Mountain." Promise looked at the mountain and gave him a look.
Dashan is clear. Although he is not very smart, he can understand his eyes after getting along with the promise for a long time. He stepped forward, and a pair of fists as big as a casserole suddenly hit the stone wall. After two punches, the stone wall broke and fell to the ground.
Promised to pick up a gravel, looked at it twice, and said, "It's indeed the same stone as the previous stone wall." Previously, the mountain had gently smashed many stone walls, so the promise can be seen.
What did Yun Feiyang think of and said, "You mean... those stone walls were made of the same kind of stone before?"
The promise nodded: "That's good."
"Then why is the hardness different? If No. 1 to No. 200 are the same stone, then the quality should be the same." Yun Feiyang was puzzled by this. Previously, the stone wall where he was located was different from the stone wall where Wei Ruoting was. It was bombarded three times, while Wei Ruoting's place was only smashed again. It can be seen that the hardness is indeed different. How can the same stone have different hardness?
The promise did not answer, but Rong Xing answered: "Because these stones are made by people."
Yun Feiyang's heart moved and said, "Is it a skill?"
"Hmm." Rong Xing nodded and said, "These stones are made by the spiritual power in the human body. If the input spiritual power is different, the quality of the stone will vary, so there will be one to two hundred stones of the same kind but different quality."
Clouds fly well, like his words can also reduce the quality of ice, so as to condense more ice, but it is meaningless no matter how much the quality decreases. And these stone rooms are different. Presumably, the more high-quality stone walls are, the more difficult it is to build, so there are various differences, so that they only correspond to relatively powerful people, which is enough. In this way, the previous stone rooms were all made by one person, and the strength of people with a kind of ability will naturally not be low.
"The places I just walked through are all the same stones, right?" Yun Feiyang still remembers that the previous passage was composed of stones, and now it is full of stones all the way up and down.
"I think so." Promise: "These stones are very hard. Although they can be broken, it will take some physical strength. If we want to retain physical strength, we have to walk along the channel. And this channel is winding, and there are so many fork roads, like a maze. It is difficult to get out. Only the people of Sin City should know the right way to go. They want to trap people who want to escape in this way.
Yun Fei said clearly that if you consume too much physical strength, it will be very dangerous to meet the enemy, so don't waste good physical strength, otherwise you will fall into the plan of Sin City.
Hongluan xìngzi was anxious and didn't want to stay too much. He said, "Then let's go. It's just a matter of time to get out of here. I don't believe that I can't go out."
"I hope so. What I'm worried about is that this maze is not that simple." The promise meditated and thought about something.
"What's not simple?" Xiaodi's heart is simple and he thinks less.
Rong Xing said: "People in Sin City should also make it clear that they can't trap everyone with a maze alone. It's only a matter of time before they go out of the maze. Since they have made it clear, why don't they set traps or something in this maze? This doesn't seem normal."
"Well..." Emperor Xiao doesn't seem to understand and doesn't seem to be very good at reasoning these things.
Hongluan frowned and said, "But it's useless to think nonsense here if we don't know, or should we go?"
"Hongluan is right. We still have to go." Promised to get up from the ground and continue to move forward with everyone.
This time, the promise drew a mark on the place where it passed, so that you can see it when you go back to the original place. These stone walls are not a whole, and there are connected cracks in them. The person who built these stone walls can't make such a big stone at a time. He can only make them one by one, and then connect them, leaving these cracks.
Promise holds a dagger in his hand, and every time he goes to a fork, he draws a horizontal strip on those stone walls as a memory. As for the mouse ash, as soon as it entered the maze, it got into the arms of the promise and slept, and did not see it all the way.
After walking for a long time, people found that it was much more difficult to get out of this maze than expected. At this time, they have returned to the place with marks for the third time, that is, the place they have traveled before, which means that they have been spinning in place.
"It seems difficult to get out of here!" The promise sighed, and the pace of walking slowed down. If you don't know how to walk, no matter how fast you walk, you will go back to the same place, which is useless.
"Because there is no sun or sky here, there is no direction. If we know the direction, we will not return to the same place if we keep going in the same direction. But the current situation is that we don't know the direction. There are too many bends here. After turning a few corners, we don't know which side is the front and which side is the back. It's normal to walk back to the original place. Yun Feiyang saw the difficulty of getting out of here. No direction is the biggest problem for everyone now. There are too many turns here, and every place looks similar. After turning too much, people don't know which direction they came from, and it's easy to go back.
"Yan, I'm so tired. How long will we go?" Emperor Xiao looked very tired. After walking for a long time, he seemed to have little strength.
"Hold on." He smiled and continued to move forward with everyone. Now they can only keep exploring, and they can't even go back, because they can't find a way back. If they can't get out, they can only be trapped here forever, which is almost the same as the previous stone room.
After walking for a long time again, people have returned to the place with marks, and it is five horizontal bars, that is to say, they have returned to this place five times!
"When will this happen? Keep going around in place! I've had enough!" Long Aotian roared. He felt that it was very stupid to walk around with everyone.
"I also don't think it's a way." Hongluan also looks a little tired and doesn't have much strength.
"Yun Feiyang, I feel so tired." Wei Ruoting's breathing also became rapid and looked worse than Hongluan.
People are almost desperate, and a simple maze trapped them in Sin City. Up to now, they have not even seen the first door and begin to doubt whether it is really possible to leave this place.
"Yan, look at that!" Yun Feiyang was the most adaptable person to the darkness. At a glance, he saw the abnormality. He stretched out his finger and drew five horizontal stone walls before the promise, and his face was a little stiff.
Yan walked to the stone wall pointed by Yun Feiyang and looked at the five horizontal bars, and his eyes suddenly condensed!
"What's wrong?" Rong Xing came forward and didn't know why Yun Feiyang and the promise had such a reaction. At first glance, he was also stunned.
Hongluan was very curious when he saw the three of them like this. He also came forward to check. She saw the five horizontal bars on the stone wall lying there, which was the place where the two stone walls were connected. The five horizontal strips were neatly drawn to the gap between the stone wall, which broke and looked very neat. The other end of the horizontal bar is not long and not very neat, but Hongluan can't see any problem with it. He is puzzled, "What's wrong with the three of you? Why do you react like this? What's wrong with these marks?"
Yun Feiyang smiled bitterly, and Rong Xing looked at each other, and his face was not very good-looking.
"Yun Feiyang, what's wrong?" Wei Ruoting was also curious and asked puzzledly.
Yun Feiyang smiled bitterly, but couldn't speak. Now even if it only makes people more desperate.
Long Ao looked forward in the sky. Although he was proud but not stupid, he also saw the clue and smiled, "So it is."
Hongluan was even more anxious when he saw this and said, "What's going on? Why are you all like this?"
The promise and Rong Xing closed their mouths and shook their heads with a wry smile. Their ideas are the same as Yun Feiyang's. Saying them will only make these people more desperate and unwilling to explain.
Long Aotian didn't care so much and said with a smile, "Can't you see it?"
Hongluan didn't have a good impression on him and frowned, "What do you mean?"
Long Aotian shook his head and said, "Take a good look at those five marks."
Hong Luan stared at it again, but still didn't find anything wrong and said, "What on earth are these marks?"
The promise sighed and knew that Long Aotian could not hide it. He said, "I drew these five marks at will. You can see that one end of them is different in length and looks very neat. The length of the other side is very neat on the same line, and those lines are just in the gap between the two stone walls.
Hongluan nodded. She just saw these and said, "Is there any problem?"
Rong Xing sighed, and Hongluan was still unclear about the promise. He said, "The irregularity at the other end shows that the words did not deliberately control the length of these marks, so the length of this end should also be irregular. But they are now very flat, and just above that gap..."
"What does this mean?" Hongluan frowned and said, "Can you speak clearly?"
Promise and Rong Xing looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly. They just didn't want to say too much to tell her like this.
"This shows that these stone walls will move." Long Aotian ignored anything and said aside.
"What!" Hongluan panicked. It is very difficult to get out of the maze without direction. If the stone wall can be moved, that is to say, the route of the maze can be changed at will, so it is impossible to get out!
"That crack is where the two stone walls are connected." Long Aotian pointed to the promise and said, "The mark he drew before should have been drawn on another stone wall, but the stone wall has moved, so the mark over there has also disappeared, and you will see five horizontal bars broken at the crack and look very neat. This is a maze that can be changed at will, and someone is controlling it, that is to say... This is a maze that can't go out!"
The routes of the maze can be changed at will. No matter how these people go, those routes will guide them back to their original places, so no matter which direction they go, they can't go out!
"Yun Feiyang, is this true?" Wei Ruoting looked very flustered, holding Yun Feiyang tightly, and was very uneasy.
"Don't worry, you can definitely go out!" Yun Feiyang comforted him. In fact, there was nothing he could do, but now he can't mess up people's hearts. If he doesn't even have a heart, then everything is really impossible.
"Ha!" Long Aotian smiled, and the sarcasm in the laughter was very obvious.
Yun Feiyang directly ignored him and said to the promise, "Yan, keep going. It's not a way to stay here. Maybe you can find something if you keep walking."
"That's the only way now." The promise nodded, and the adopted people continued to move forward.
Along the way, the atmosphere of the crowd seemed very depressing, and almost no one spoke, and they were a little shaken.
"Don't worry." Rong Xing opened his mouth and wanted to ease the atmosphere and said, "Even if we can't get out of here, we won't starve to death as practitioners. Isn't it just like being locked in the stone room before?" Besides, we still have so many people now, at least we don't have to be alone. It's much better than before.
Everyone feels reasonable when they hear it, and the worst result is just like this. It's better than being locked in the stone room before.
"I think you are too optimistic!" Long Aotian was lukewarm and poured a basin of cold water on Rong Xing.
Rong Xing was furious. Now is the time to stabilize people's hearts, but Long Aotian said such things here. He turned around and just wanted to speak, but he saw him pointing somewhere on the ground.
Rong Xing looked back, and his heart immediately sank to the bottom of the valley.
There is a skeleton in the place Long Aotian pointed to, lying in a corner against the wall on the ground. It looks like he has been dead for a long time. As a monk, Rong Xing has also killed people. Not to mention the skeleton, even the ghost standing in front of him may not be afraid, but this skeleton makes him feel desperate.
Long Aotian walked to the skeleton, squatted down and said, "This is also the person who escaped from the stone room before. He has no wounds on his body and no poisonous image, but he died here. The people who can be imprisoned here by the City of Sin are undoubtedly monks, but they are trapped in this maze. How dare you say that it is better for us to stay here than to be locked in a stone room?
Promised, "We still don't know the cause of this person's death. Don't make a conclusion too early."
"Plop!"
The emperor standing in the crowd suddenly fell down and lay on the ground and never moved again.
"Little brother, what's wrong?" Hongluan was relatively close and immediately came forward to check. After checking, he said, "He fainted because..." Hongluan seemed to be a little difficult to say.
"What is it?" Everyone's heart sank.
Hongluan said with difficulty, "His spiritual power has been drained!"
Everyone was shocked. At this time, when they remembered the tired performance of Hongluan and his younger brothers before, they found something wrong. For monks, spiritual power is equal to physical strength. As long as spiritual power is abundant, they will have endless physical strength. They are all monks, but they showed fatigue just because they walked a while, which is obviously abnormal. At that time, people were thinking about how to get out of here, so they ignored this abnormality.
