This stone chamber is not so much square as the internal space is more like a shell. The innermost space where we fell out of the passage is the lowest space, and all the way to the wall with foxes painted on it is the highest. space.
The huge portrait of the blue-eyed fox was at the low point of the secret room. It was just right for me to hold up Ruxue to knock on the pair of charm stones, and it wasn't too strenuous.
The sound of knocking still echoed in the stone chamber. Everyone was waiting with heavy worries and an unknown mood about the next road. No one spoke.
Except for Mr. Wu, he was very interested in wandering into that passage again and again. Occasionally he would come back and say how beautiful the passage was! Unfortunately, no matter how beautiful it is, it is still shrouded in fog, and we can't arouse much interest in it.
In less than ten minutes, Ruxue finally knocked down the last pair of charm stones. As soon as I put her down, the stone room began to shake violently, which was stronger than any two previous vibrations. Everyone was unsteady. .
I hugged Ruxue and rolled to the wall all of a sudden, and the mud on the ceiling quickly fell down in large chunks. I quickly protected Ruxue in my arms.
At this moment, I heard Ruxue say softly in my arms: "Chengyi, to be able to love someone like this is already..." Unfortunately, the shaking sound was too loud, and Ruxue and I were shaken again. When I got to the other side, I couldn't hear clearly what Ruxue said next.
But how could I be willing to not hear clearly, so I asked loudly: "Ruxue, what did you say?"
Amidst this strong shock, Ruxue smiled. That smile was so beautiful that it made my heart beat as fast as ever. She shouted to me: "I didn't say anything, I just told you that it is a very good thing."
I didn’t doubt it, but I just hugged Ruxue a little tighter and expressed my love amidst such violent shaking. I always felt that there was a feeling that transcended life and death.
After shaking for a minute, everything finally calmed down. After such violent shaking, the stone room became a bit messy compared to the clean state just now. The smoke and dust had not dispersed, and there were many lumps of soil on the ground.
Before we could take a breath, suddenly I felt my eyes blur, and then I saw a new bug lying on Ruxue's shoulder. This bug was still the same 'series' bug, but the difference was that it actually had Most of it is as long as a forearm, has two pairs of wings, and has three purple stripes on its body, but they are much thicker than the first one.
This bug feels even scarier! I don't understand why they are so 'attached' to snow
Before I had time to say anything, I suddenly heard something more magical happen. It was the long howling of wolf cubs one after another. When I heard it, I heard many wolf cubs howling. I didn’t need to think about where the sound came from. The wolf cubs surrounding us next to the snow nest are great, they really haven’t left yet!
I don't understand what they are howling at this time, and they are howling at the top of their lungs. It feels like their buttocks are on fire. They are so deep underneath and through those winding caves that they can be heard like this. In my ears.
Hearing the howls of the wolf cubs, the three bugs lying on Ruxue were about to move. The movement gave people a frightened and ferocious look.
Ruxue sighed inexplicably and said softly: "Go ahead, I can't stop it anyway, just stop it."
I looked at Ruxue inexplicably. Who was she talking to? But Ruxue did not answer my interest, but the three bugs lying on her body answered me. After Ruxue said these words, they fluttered their wings and flew away from the hole where we came from.
"Ruxue, are you talking to them?" Although these bugs are close to Ruxue, just like my instinctive disgust towards the devil bugs in Black Rock Miao Village, I also have an indescribable disgust for these three bugs.
I think I need to talk to Ruxue. If I can destroy these bugs, don't keep them. I firmly believe that my feeling is not wrong.
Ruxue looked at me, her expression still calm, and she said, "If I tell you it's not the case, would you believe it?"
"I believe it, but don't you think you should give me an explanation?" My expression also became extremely serious. I love Ruxue. I can die with her, but I will never let go of my mistakes with her. , I once told Qiangzi, if you become a devil, I will lock you up and guard you.
This is especially true for Ruxue. If she is going to make a mistake, I will guard her and stop her regardless. Even if I don't do anything, I will never allow her to make a mistake. This kind of insect that devours everything, think about it. It's a disaster.
"Chengyi, I will explain to you. But not now. What I can tell you now is that these bugs woke up from their deep sleep and are hungry. The hungrier they are, the more ferocious they will be. If they are not allowed to I can't guarantee what will happen after they are full, whether they will attack you. Chengyi, believe me, the bugs just won't hurt me, but in fact I can't control them." Ruxue looked at I said it seriously.
"And..." Ruxue paused, then continued: "They are not as powerful as the devil bugs, but they can also suppress my new life Gu, but they don't deliberately target it. You may not understand what I am talking about. , but you will always understand.”
I don't understand why Ruxue mentioned the natal Gu again. Her natal Gu died in Black Rock Miao Village, and later she cultivated a new natal Gu. But does it have anything to do with this insect
The only thing I could think of was suppression, but... my mind suddenly felt like an electric shock, and I thought of one more thing, purple, that purple again, could this insect also have something to do with Kunlun
If so, why didn’t Ruxue just say it? Instead, hesitantly hinted at me like this? I looked at Ruxue, and Ruxue looked at me as well. At that moment, we seemed to have exchanged thousands of words.
She was telling me that she was helpless and asked me not to ask further questions.
And there is only one thing I want to convey, no matter what happens, I will always be by your side.
After being silent for a few seconds, Ruxue turned around and picked up the charm stones scattered on the ground one by one, carefully took out a handkerchief, wrapped it up, and handed it to me.
I looked at the bag of stones and said to Ruxue: "This is useless. It has already been sealed with other powers. What's the use of holding it?"
"Maybe it's useful, can you keep it?" Ruxue insisted.
I was really going crazy because of everything I couldn't understand, but I didn't refuse Ruxue, and I still kept the pack of Charming Heart Stones in my bag.
"Let's go." Ruxue seemed to feel more relieved after doing all this, and smiled and greeted us to go down.
"That bug, isn't it coming to you anymore?" Lao Zhang asked, somewhat unable to react.
"They? They just went to eat a few wolves and they will come to me! Don't worry, Lao Zhang, I told you not to go too far, they won't start killing." Ruxue gave a rare explanation. After all, Lao Zhang is Mountain people, those who really love this mountain, hate the idea of exterminating them all. That would destroy their roots.
How many wolves will you eat? Could it be that these wolves didn't dare to go into this snow den just because of those bugs? It is said that animals are the most dangerous beings. Could it be that what they are afraid of is not the blue-eyed foxes I thought at first, but these bugs
The more I thought about it, the more confused I became. I simply stopped thinking about it. In short, if I kept going, I would definitely find the answer. I only knew that the purpose this time was the Kunlun Tomb, and the ginseng essence was incidental. But in the deepest part of my heart, I still had an idea, that No matter what, I will never let go of Ruxue's hand.
With this idea in mind, we finally entered the downward passage. There was surprisingly no smoke and dust here, and it was clean. Although it was dark, the distance we could see with our flashlight was really like Wu. What the old ghost said was beautiful.
Of course, I can't comment on the specific details of this beauty. I can only roughly see that this bluestone passage is very detailed, with reliefs on both sides. I can't clearly see the content, but I can still feel the magnificence.
Like the stone chamber above, the darkness here seems to be substantial and more difficult to penetrate. I wonder if the darkness I see is because of the light, or is it because of something else
But after walking a few steps, Mr. Wu jumped up in front of me and said, "Chengyi, there is also a lamp on the wall, and there is still wet lamp oil in the lamp!"
Could it be that there is also a Charming Heart Stone here? But according to the properties of the Charming Heart Stone, if it existed, we should have discovered it long ago, but it doesn't exist here.
However, I quickly saw the lamp that Wu Laogui mentioned. Different from the weird wall lamp, this lamp was very simple in style, but there was nothing strange about it. I took out a lighter and lit the lamp here. But I found that the light was not the light cyan flame, but the normal yellow flame!
why is that? If this is the case, why does this lamp oil not dry up over the years? Could it be that someone else has been here? When I think about this question, I feel like a new layer of fog has enveloped my heart.
But Brother Chengxin shouted: "The legendary eternal lamp? The refining technique of a Taoist master?"
Lao Zhang exclaimed: "This mural!"
