Chapter 54
Chapter 54
There is no wind.After walking for a long time, I felt a strong wind blowing from the northwest.In other words, it means that I have left the confined space just now—let’s call it the main hall—and went to the courtyard, garden or corridor.Since the wind is so strong, it is probably in the courtyard or garden.After walking for a while, I couldn't feel the wind, so I entered the confined space again, probably in the house behind it.After I walked in, I started to go down the stairs. The humidity of the air became a little bit higher, and it was full of wet feeling, and finally I arrived in the cell.
...something seems to be wrong.
Cheng Wei tilted his head and thought about the route just now.
——There is a place that is completely inconsistent with the overall style of the building!
Except for that place, all other roads are straight, unless you reach a place where you must turn, otherwise they are straight.Only in that place, I turned several corners by myself.
I can understand that the prison was built far away from the palace, but that place - probably some kind of house - is also very far away, not too far away from the prison.Why was this house built in such a remote, terrifying place where people are locked up?
Cheng Weizheng was puzzled, when suddenly there was an echo of footsteps in the distance.
The voice was steady and slow, unlike Qing Cang's quick and agile pace.
Cheng Wei was startled, and suddenly thought of who was coming, and unconsciously leaned into the corner.
Chen Zhou came to Cheng Wei's cell, looked around and didn't speak.
Cheng Wei stood there quietly, nervous all over his body, not knowing what this man was going to do.
"Don't be afraid," Chen Zhou said suddenly, and sneered, "You won't live long anyway, so why be afraid?"
Cheng Wei didn't answer, but stared blankly at the direction where the voice came from.
"It's really difficult to pull the thread."
Cheng Wei's heart skipped a beat, and he unconsciously called out to Chen Huan.
"If Chen Huan comes, I will be in trouble."
Chen Zhou chuckled, and waved his palm in front of him.
"...So, don't let him know that you are here. But even if you know, he probably won't be able to reach you."
Cheng Wei's heart sank, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Why don't you speak, can't you speak anymore?"
Cheng Wei unconsciously opened his mouth to question, thinking that he could no longer speak, but the voice miraculously came out by itself: "What did you do just now?"
"So I can still say it—it's a pity." Chen Zhou turned around and wanted to leave.
"you have not answer my question yet!"
He didn't stop, and said as he walked, "It's nothing, it's just a small spell for your cell."
The foothills of Snake Mountain.
The barrier at the foot of the mountain was no longer the barrier that Chen Huan had set up when he left.The current enchantment is more sophisticated, and it is much more difficult to find the way to break it and the entrance than before.With only three people, it is even more difficult to find it under such a large mountain foothill.
Chen Huan was floating in the air, her brows were tightly furrowed, her eyes were patrolling the area, trying to find the key point to enter the mountain.
Suddenly, Cheng Wei's voice sounded in his ear, calling his name.
He was surprised for a while, and listened intently with bated breath, but his voice disappeared after a while, disappeared without a trace, and never sounded again after that.
Could it be that Cheng Wei already...?
Chen Huan shook his head, put aside this thought, and continued to observe the barrier.
A white cloud floated slowly in the sky, and an extremely imperceptible light flashed by the corner of Chen Huan's eyes.He thought it was an illusion and didn't pay attention to it. After a while, another large cloud floated over, and the small light spot appeared again, and it disappeared in a flash.
Chen Huan quickly came to the spot of light and looked at it meticulously, but she couldn't see the spot of light.
He raised his head and squinted at the clouds in the sky.The white clouds floated slowly, as if there were no worries in the world.
He opened his lips, and breathed lightly on the cloud, the cloud suddenly floated fast, just blocking the sunlight, and this part of the mountain became dark immediately.
He turned his head and carefully observed the enchantment here.The two people from other places rushed here immediately when they saw the abnormal movement of the cloud. Chen Jue saw that Chen Huan was concentrating on thinking, and asked, "What's wrong? Is this place wrong?"
Chen Huan hummed lightly, and attached the enchantment with his hand, "Just now I caught a glimpse of a light spot here, but now I can't find it."
"When you cover the sun with clouds, how can there still be spots of light?"
"That point of light is what flashes when there is no daylight."
"Self-luminous?"
The other two were puzzled for a while, and helped to find it together.
There is no difference in the scenery on both sides of the enchantment. The dead branches of the big trees extend from one side to the other, and the gray-yellow land lays out like the cracked skin of an old man.Snake Mountain is close to the northwest, and the climate is completely dry in winter and summer.Fortunately, it has not snowed in the past few days. There is no snow at the foot of the mountain, and the top of the mountain may have already been covered.
The three searched for a while but found nothing.Chen Huan's voice was a little low: "It seems that I misread it, so I'll look elsewhere."
As soon as he turned around, Yuge suddenly stopped him: "Wait...you have a look, what is this?"
There is a hand hidden in a pile of dry weeds, but this hand has long been turned into a bone, and its existence is incompatible with the atmosphere of this fairy mountain.The fingers curled up unnaturally, holding a small stone inside.
Yuge looked at it for a while, and said with a bit of astonishment: "This is the stone of the underworld, which is specially used to arrange the enchantment of the underworld...how can it be here?"
"It's probably Beiluan," Chen Jue said, "Can this stone break the barrier?"
Yuge nodded, and suddenly bit ten fingers one by one, chanting a spell in his mouth.Ten drops of blood dripped on the stone, emitting black and reddish light.
"This barrier can only be broken by people from the underworld. My mana is not as powerful as Beiluan... so I have to use this method." With ten fingers connected to the heart, the barrier is broken through the thoughts in the heart. The strength of the mind is the strength of the power conveyed. .
The scene at the enchantment suddenly began to distort and deform, with cracks cracking from the center, and finally completely broken.
Chen Huan stretched out his hand, and he could pass through the blocked place—the barrier was lifted!
"Thank you. Let's go." Chen Huan said quickly, and then ran towards the mountain.
Yuge stood up unsteadily, took a step forward, staggered and almost fell.
Seeing this, Chen Jue hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and said worriedly, "Are you okay? Why is your face so pale? Is something wrong?"
"No problem," Yuge struggled lightly, but did not let go of her hand, so he could only say, "Mr. Chen, I'm fine, let's go." I didn't expect Bei Luan to be so powerful, just now my mind was almost caught Backlash, if the mind is not strong enough, I am afraid that I will not be able to hold it!
"Are you really okay?" Chen Jue stood on tiptoe and gently wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
"It's okay...how can I be so weak, I'm still a man anyway." Yuge smiled self-deprecatingly.
"Then can you go?"
"... Yes. Let me go, or it will slow down your speed."
Chen Jue felt a little angry, she suddenly thumped Yu Ge's chest hard.Yu Ge didn't react, and after a while, he found himself... being held in the arms of Chen Jue in the posture of a princess.
"Mr. Chen! What are you doing!? Let me go, let me go..."
"Shut up! People who can't even walk still want to come down? - No rebuttal, no objection! I'll just hold you up and hold you tight!"
"Ah? Ah!—"
Chen Jue tapped the ground with her toes, and then quickly flew over!
In a spacious room, there is only one wooden bed.Chen Zhou closed his eyes, leaned against the cold wall behind, and sat motionless on the wooden bed, not knowing whether he was meditating or practicing.
Suddenly, his eyelids jumped a few times.
A mocking smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.
"Have people come from the underworld too? To be able to break the barrier..."
Qing Cang stood outside with an expression on his face, looking straight ahead, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Qing Cang." Chen Zhou's voice came from inside.
"Subordinates are here."
"Go to the east. There are two little wolves and a kid jumping up."
"...Yes." After finishing speaking, Qing Cang left the room.
Chen Zhou exhaled, put aside distracting thoughts in his mind, and continued to sit in silence.
Cheng Wei found that he could no longer hear Chen Huan's voice no matter what method he used.At the beginning, I could hear a few sounds occasionally, but now there is no sound at all.
In this way, the only opportunity to communicate with the outside world was cut off.
He was a little frustrated, and sat in the corner with his knees hugged, not knowing what else to do.
He was thinking of another way out with a sad face, when there was another sound of footsteps not far away.
He stood up vigilantly.Why is Chen Zhou here again, is it annoying?
The footsteps this time are of another style, light and agile, just like the footsteps of a child.The man walked for a while, then ran again, making a clacking sound, echoing in the long aisle.
He ran to the prison and asked out of breath, "How do you feel now?"
Cheng Wei was a little puzzled, who is this person, why did he ask this question as soon as he came up?
Seeing that he didn't speak, the child was shocked and said: "But he can't speak? But Qing Cang clearly... that sword is useless?"
What "that sword?" Cheng Wei frowned, not wanting to be misunderstood by him as dumb, so he reluctantly said, "I'm not dumb. Who are you?"
The child breathed a sigh of relief.Although Cheng Wei couldn't see it, she felt for some reason that he must be smiling and talking.
"I am the wolf god of Snake Mountain, Chen Xi."
Cheng Wei opened his mouth in surprise, and said in disbelief: "
