Views:

The strange sense of familiarity in Xu Lang's heart could not be dissipated. He thought for a long time and he did not observe carefully on the seventeenth and eighteenth floors of hell.

He always felt that the only evil spirit in the sixteenth floor of Hell had seen it somewhere, but because he could only see one back, he couldn't remember it.

In fact, he also found it very incredible. If he wanted to see the evil spirits in his capacity, it was only in the task of the newspaper.

"Is it a familiar evil spirit in a certain task?" Although Xu Lang pondered this way, he remembered it over and over again for a long time, and he didn't think of which evil spirit could overlap with that back figure.

He once again thought of the seventeenth and eighteenth floors of hell he had just experienced. In fact, the scene there was already extremely strange.

It was just a cloud of mist, but with the hazy mist, he could see that there was no movement or human shadows at all.

In other words, the seventeenth, eighteenth and sixteenth floors are somewhat similar. Except for the familiar back figure, there are no evil spirits on the sixteenth floor.

This abnormal situation gave Xu Lang an unbelievable idea.

That is, did the former seventeenth and eighteenth floors also have evil spirits, but their level is already super high, even reaching the level of the "evil gods" Xu Lang thought of, so they are no longer in hell Distressed, but left here.

The only explanation Xu Lang can think of is that they have come to the real world!

Being able to be on the second floor at the bottom, Xu Lang can imagine how terrifying their abilities are. He even guessed that the newspaper office might be one of the evil spirits on these two floors!

Because according to the ranks, it is very possible and reasonable for such a powerful evil spirit of the newspaper to be in the last two levels!

So according to Xu Lang's speculation, some of these evil spirits may be disguised as newspaper offices, some disguised as apartments, etc., but what is the purpose of their efforts to integrate into the real world

This is inexplicable and inexplicable in Xu Lang's vision.

Looking at the slowly falling elevator, this elevator seems to be exhausted, and the speed is getting slower and slower, or the nineteenth floor of hell is a very unique place, even this weird elevator is somewhat unable to support the load. Let Xu Lang enter there.

Xu Lang's expression is getting more and more serious. If his hierarchy is established, then the newspaper will already be within the two most end layers of the seventeenth and eighteenth, but what will happen to the last nineteenth layer? exist

Is it an evil spirit stronger than a newspaper

Xu Lang let out a long sigh of relief. His energy has reached the extreme, and the scenes that will appear next are likely to completely subvert his cognition and the truth of the world.

Ding!

The familiar sound of elevator stopping, and quietly responding, Xu Lang suddenly felt a trace of emptiness when the elevator stopped.

That's right, it's emptiness.

As if the nineteenth floor of hell, there was no sound, no trace, nothing, only an elevator invading here was still making the only sound.

The elevator door opened slowly, and Xu Lang looked forward to it. His fear at the moment has been suppressed by curiosity and longing. He wants to take a look at what exists in the nineteenth floor of hell that is higher than the existence of the newspaper

But at the moment his sight appeared, he unexpectedly appeared disappointed for a moment.

Because here, you can't see your fingers, darkness!

The extremely pure darkness, that is the darkness that isolates everything, is like Xu Lang and the elevator in which they are in an unknown imaginary space, and everything around is an inaccessible abyss.

Even here, the two red moons that were always in the sky no longer exist, and everything in the world becomes unrealistic and non-existent here, turning into chaos.

Xu Lang's face flushed, and he took a step for the first time. This was not what he thought, but he subconsciously wanted to explore. What was in the darkness attracted him and forced him to step forward. pace.

He walked out of the fairly safe elevator and slowly walked into the pure darkness.

Xu Lang felt that there was a hard ground under his feet. Stepping on it was like stepping on a smooth asphalt road with a slight comfort. He slowly stretched out his hand and grasped it forward like a blind man.

At this moment, the emergency light on the rear elevator suddenly lit up, but it only flickered for the first time, and then began to flicker violently, as if fighting against the darkness of the nineteenth floor of hell.

After a long time, the elevator won, and the emergency light emitted a yellowish light, illuminating the road ahead.

Xu Lang turned around and looked at the elevator. There was a slight strangeness in his heart, and he looked forward again. Although there was lighting, the visibility was still not high, and he began to walk forward slowly.

There was a faint feeling in his heart that the reason why the elevator appeared was to bring Xu Lang to the nineteenth floor of hell.

The attraction in front became stronger and stronger, as if waiting for Xu Lang for a long, long time.

So, what is ahead

Xu Lang walked, but his heart felt like still water. Anyone in this scene would have been violent, and at this moment his brows tightened and his eyes squinted slightly.

Because he saw a stone platform faintly appeared in front of him, and it seemed to have something on it.

The distance is a little bit far away, he can't see clearly, Xu Lang's heart is anxious, maybe this is the purpose of the elevator to get him here.

At this time, no matter what the purpose is, Xu Lang should step forward and take a look!

Xu Lang's footsteps speeded up, and the distance from the stone platform quickly narrowed. The emergency light behind him became more intense, but at the same time it began to flicker briefly.

He knew that the elevator had reached its limit, and the power of the nineteenth floor of Hell could not be resisted.

Xu Lang ran forward quickly, wanting to see what was on the stone platform, and as the distance got closer, he finally got a real look of the thing.

That is a puzzle!

A jigsaw puzzle like a child's toy, except that the carved patterns on it are extremely delicate and the color is dark gray, but this is only a small piece and obviously incomplete.

Puzzle

The moment Xu Lang saw it, he was a little astonished. He once again felt familiar in this hell, but this puzzle made him feel more obscure, as if buried deep in Xu Lang’s memory. Suddenly, I couldn't remember it at all.

His heart drenched a little, he was about to step forward to see it really, but at this moment the elevator behind him suddenly issued an emergency alert, and the lights became more and more illusory and flickering.

Xu Lang didn't look back. He stepped forward again. He saw a notch on the stone platform next to the puzzle, and the notch looked like a few words, dyed with red paint, very eye-catching.

"Tianhai... ... "

The flickering of the lights revived the original darkness. Xu Lang looked at it repeatedly, but in the end he could barely recognize the two words, "Tianhai", but the text behind it could not be seen clearly.

Xu Lang's expression was urgent. He turned his head and glanced at the direction of the elevator. If he didn't go at this time, he might not be able to go anymore!

He took a deep look at the last, the stone platform with puzzles and lettering, unwillingly burst out at full speed, and rushed toward the elevator!

The elevator has reached its limit, and it is not easy to barely support Xu Lang to achieve this step. At this time, the elevator door has begun to close.

This made Xu Lang's expression more urgent. The wound under his ribs expanded again at this moment, making his footsteps pause for a while, but when he saw the elevator doors, a trace of cruelty appeared on his face.

No matter whether the wound under his ribs will deteriorate, he no longer hides it, and starts to sprint at full speed with all his energy.

Finally at the last moment when the elevator closed, Xu Lang finally managed to get into the elevator.

Xu Lang panted heavily, touched the elevator button with trembling hands, and left here upwards!

But when he pressed the red button, the elevator shook violently. Suddenly, Xu Lang lost his balance and fell to the ground. He suddenly raised his head and looked at the flashing lights in the elevator. Finally, he was here. It exploded with a bang for a moment.

With bursts of sparks, there was darkness in the elevator. Xu Lang took off in the air, and then fell heavily to the ground. He held the wall with one hand, and his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

The elevator is still sinking, and it descends wildly with an unstoppable momentum. It seems that the elevator has lost all its energy and no longer has the power to support it!

Xu Lang's face was pale, and in the dark space where he could not see his fingers, the torn wind around him caused his soul to be scattered and flying. If nothing else, he would fall into a pool in a few seconds. minced meat!

Xu Lang, who has endured for a long time, has finally come to an end now, and can no longer suppress the fear in his heart.

He opened his mouth wide and screamed wildly.

"what!!!!!"

At this moment, he suddenly felt that the world was brightened, and his arms were grasped by a pair of soft hands, and there was a burst of warmth.

A faint, gentle and panicked voice rang in his ear: "You...what's wrong with you? Don't you scare me?"

Xu Lang's closed eyes suddenly opened at this moment. A dazzling light directly dazzled his eyes, and he quickly covered his eyes with one hand.

"What happened to you?"

In a daze, he heard the familiar voice, this is... Nurse Xiao Liu

Xu Lang grabbed the hand holding his arm in the palm of his hand, and this made the people around him panic. "what are you doing?"

Opening his eyes, he regained his light again, and he could see the face of the person in front of him clearly. This was Xiao Liu with a panic on his face!

"You... You're not dead?" Xu Lang asked in a bit of astonishment.

"I..." Xiao Liu might not have thought that Xu Lang would actually ask this sentence in the first sentence, and said annoyedly: "Why did I die? It was not you who told me to take the elevator with you and go to the underground morgue. After you got into the elevator, you just squatted on the ground and didn't know what was wrong, and didn't answer me how you called."

Xu Lang was stunned. He squeezed his arm vigorously, which was very painful, and then looked down at the injury under his ribs. He was not injured at all. The stitches that were stitched before did not crack at all.

"Is the trip to hell... an illusion?"
