When Gu Xinglang ran into the long corridor, in the stone room behind him, the bodies of four monks were poured, and several others were injured. They stood in the stone room and did not chase Gu Xinglang into the corridor.
There was wind running through the north and south of the promenade, and the smell of blood mixed with carrion was carried by the wind, blowing towards him, so strong that Gu Xinglang could hardly breathe.
"Xiaowei?" Gu Xinglang shouted as he stood in the corridor and rushed to the end of the corridor.
At the end of the promenade, there were faint lights flickering, but there was no human voice.
Gu Xinglang touched the stone wall with his hand. There was still liquid on the stone wall, but it was not water, but mucus.
"Xiaowei?" Gu Xinglang called out again.
There was still no sound from the other end of the corridor.
At this time, it was impossible for Gu Xinglang to leave Xiaowei and Jiang Zhuojun here and escape alone. Taking a deep breath of the foul-smelling air, Gu Xinglang walked towards the end of the corridor.
A monk guarding the stone room asked his companions, "Do you want to lower the door? Seal them inside?"
"No need," a monk shook his head, pressing his hand tightly against the wound on his chest, and whispered, "They can't come out of there alive."
The end of the promenade was connected to twenty steps. Gu Xinglang stood in front of the steps, his expression distorted because he was too nervous.
The flat ground under the steps was filled with the kind of humanoid monsters that Gu Xinglang had seen in Dali Temple. Above the heads of these monsters, there were five iron cages. Jiang Zhuojun fell into the iron cage in the center. Wei fell on top of the iron cage on Gu Xinglang's left. Obviously out of desperation, Xiaowei jumped onto the iron cage to avoid these monsters.
I just don't know why, but Jiang Zhuojun, who was still shouting just now, told Gu Xinglang and Xiaowei to leave quickly, and Xiaowei, who had entered this place not long ago, are all lying there at the moment, Gu Xinglang can't see if these two people are not. still alive.
In the silence, a familiar voice suddenly entered Gu Xinglang's ears.
Gu Shao looked down, the candle light flickered in the wind, and then suddenly lit up, Gu Xinglang saw the feet of these monsters, no, it should be said that the entire flat ground under the steps was covered with his temple in Dali Temple. Those worms I've seen.
Frightened Gu Xinglang unconsciously took a few steps back.
A drop of seepage water on the stone wall dripped behind Gu Xinglang with a "tick" sound.
The monsters who were standing quietly under the stone steps seemed to be startled by the sound of water droplets, they twisted their necks together stiffly, and looked towards Gu Xinglang.
Gu Xinglang's right hand holding the knife was wet and slippery. Under the horror, cold sweat had unknowingly soaked Gu Xinglang's clothes.
At this moment, the iron cage that Xiaowei was lying on made a "click" sound.
Gu Xinglang watched as a hook supporting the weight of the iron cage fell off the top of the stone wall.
The iron cage, which had lost its balance, began to tilt.
The monsters looked at Xiaowei, who was about to fall from the iron cage, and roared, as if they had seen a feast.
Gu Xinglang jumped up and grabbed Xiaowei when he was about to fall from the iron cage. After all, he was a general on horseback. After Gu Xinglang grabbed Xiaowei, it was impossible to take Xiaowei to other iron cages to escape, or simply to return to the stone steps.
The roars of the monsters became more and more angry, and there were monsters standing under the cage, reaching out and pulling the iron cage tilted above their heads.
"Xiaowei?" Gu Xinglang reluctantly stood on the frame of the iron cage, hugged Xiaowei in his arms, and called Xiaowei several times in a row.
Xiaowei was hugged by Gu Xinglang, unconscious, like a corpse.
Gu Xinglang let out a sigh of relief and tried Xiaowei's breath. After confirming that Xiaowei was still alive, Gu Xinglang was a little relieved.
Pulled by the monsters, the iron cage shook violently.
Gu Xinglang looked at Shijie, thinking about where he should take Xiaowei back.
Xixi's voice grew louder at this time, and Gu Xinglang saw the long worms start to climb on the monsters' bodies, towards the sloping iron cage.
"Come on," Jiang Zhuojun's voice came from behind Gu Xinglang.
Gu Xinglang turned his head in a hurry, and saw Jiang Zhuojun holding the iron cage with his hands, looking at him anxiously.
"Let's go," Jiang Zhuojun shouted to Gu Xinglang, "There is a stone room above this, and there is an organ to store and retract the iron cage."
"There are monsters there too?" Gu Xinglang asked.
Jiang Zhuojun said, "I didn't see it, what kind of monsters are these?"
Gu Xinglang shook his head, he didn't know what monsters these were.
"Can you go to the stone steps with Xiaowei?" Jiang Zhuojun asked Gu Xinglang.
Gu Xinglang hugged Xiaowei tightly, and with the help of a few monsters, it was not impossible for him to leave with Xiaowei. After finding the stone room Jiang Zhuojun said, he can rescue Jiang Zhuojun again.
"They will go up the stone steps," Jiang Zhuojun reminded Gu Xinglang: "After you take Xiaowei over, hurry up and leave. Gu Xinglang, hurry up and leave."
Gu Xinglang also wanted to ask why Jiang Zhuojun and Xiaowei were unconscious, but at this moment, a deafening bell rang from the depths of the flat ground.
"No!" Jiang Zhuojun shouted.
The loud banging of the bell shook Gu Xinglang so much that his blood surged.
Jiang Zhuojun spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted again.
After hearing the bell, the monsters became quiet, and together they stood still, looking at the depths of the flat ground as Gu Xinglang had just seen.
The worms' movements also seemed to be affected by the sound of the bell, and their crawling movements slowed down, but they were still climbing on the iron cage.
Gu Xinglang knew that he couldn't fall into a coma, otherwise he and Xiaowei would fall into the group of monsters and would be torn to shreds by these monsters. But as the bell continued, Gu Xinglang's eyes were also darkened.
At this moment, Yu Xiaoxiao held the copper bell in her hand and showed it to Tian Xing, and said, "Master, is this thing very valuable?"
Lao Dao carefully looked at the copper bell that was hooked on the little thumb by Yu Xiaoxiao. The copper bell was carved and hollowed out.
Yu Xiaoxiao put the copper bell under her nose and smelled it, and said, "It smells of blood."
Lao Dao was busy looking over to smell it, and then said, "Pin Dao didn't smell anything."
Ergou said, "Is this supposed to be gold?"
Lao Daochong rolled his eyes at this young man, can he still not tell the difference between copper and gold
"Dipped in human blood," Yu Xiaoxiao affirmed.
The old Taoist looked at the big Buddha whose head was smashed by Yu Xiaoxiao. Just looking at the place where the copper bell was hidden, this thing must be amazing. It's just that the old man can't understand, what is so special about this little copper bell
Ergou said to Yu Xiao: "Princess, shake it, maybe the sound of this bell is particularly nice?"
"Really?" Yu Xiaoxiao shook the copper bell hooked on her hand, and then Her Royal Highness and Ergou went silent together, not to mention it was nice, the sound of the bell was also soft, right
"What kind of broken bell is this?" Ergou shouted.
Yu Xiao: "It's pretty bad. It's not as good as the string of wind chimes that Xiao Gu gave me."
