Artisans in Tunli

Chapter 172
Jiang Shan brought me a cup of hot tea and said angrily, "It's only less than four meters away. You may have landed before you have time to vent the hood. If you hadn't brought your teacher's jade pendant, your soul would have died a long time ago." I went to the ghost gate to report."

After she finished speaking, she took out the teacher's wife's jade pendant from her arms and handed it to me, and continued: "My dad said, if you bring this, you won't be able to return to your soul. Can you be more careful in the future? You're almost scared to death." me."

I took the jade pendant, grabbed her little hand, pulled her into my arms, kissed her forehead lightly, and said lovingly: "I'm sorry, my wife, I don't know how it happened."

Jiang Shan, who was in my arms, suddenly broke free from my arm, stared straight at the paper ball on the ground and said, "Husband, look at this ball, does it seem that something is missing?"

I glanced at it, and then recounted my previous experience from beginning to end. She also opened her mouth in surprise and was speechless for a while.

"If this puppy hadn't saved me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to see you either."

"You mean, you didn't die, you probably entered another space?"

I nodded and expressed my thoughts. During the period, Mr. Zhuge also came to listen to my conjecture, and then paced back and forth thoughtfully without making a sound.

"Mr. Zhuge, what do you think?"

"Well, I haven't experienced this either. If Nian Qing was here, I might understand what's going on. Anyway, it's good to be back."

What he said was equivalent to not saying anything.But I can see that he behaved very calmly, as if he knew these things would happen a long time ago.

Jiang Shan helped me to stand up, and saw that they didn't know when they started a fire with a small stove, and they were distributing noodles over there.Zhou Peng came over with a paper bowl and stuffed it into my hand, then gave me a sideways glance, and then slipped back to Qin Zhaodi's side, as attentive as a dog's leg.

After putting the jade pendant back on, I took a few mouthfuls of noodles, lost my appetite, and began to look at the fresh sights in front of me.

The bottom of the stone steps echoes with the top.The above is a small gossip, but now our position is a huge gossip, and there is a candlestick standing on each position.

I pulled Jiang Shan, who was sucking noodles, and asked, "Tell me, how many years have this candle been placed here, and it's still burning, it's unbelievable."

"What, these candles were put on by my dad."

"Well, maybe it's not that incredible." In order to cover up my embarrassment, I asked Jiang Shan to sit down and eat, and I strolled to the familiar black giant door in the distance.

It has the same relief and the same specifications as the door I saw before, and there is no difference.Looking down, there was also a thick layer of ash on the ground, as if no humans or other creatures had been here for a long time.

"What's behind this black door?"

I turned around and saw that it was Qin Zhaodi, a little girl with bronze complexion, who was holding a noodle bowl and staring curiously at the taboo door in front of her.

"This will be the entrance to the passage that will change your life. After entering, you will encounter many things and things that you have never seen or heard before."

"Hmph, you underestimated me. My life is up to me." After finishing speaking, she went straight back.

Yes, life is in your own hands, how can there be any destiny?Wait, I seem to overthrow what I said earlier, but forget it, everyone's understanding of life is different.

"Okay, everyone has eaten and drank enough now, so now they will enter the underworld and hell. If you have anything to say, you can say it while you are alive."

Li Qing was really the king of cold shoulders, even in this situation, he still had the heart to make jokes that weren't funny.

"Let me say a few words first." I quickly left the black gate, walked up to Li Qing, cleared my throat and said, "You guys know me, probably because my senior brother, that is, Zhang Feng, opened the Therefore, no matter whether we can come out alive or not, we are considered friends of life and death. As the saying goes, no one has died since ancient times. Maybe this is the end, but dead trees can still sprout new shoots, which is also an end. starting point!"

"Well said!" Liu Jianguo clapped his hands first, followed by everyone excitedly clapping.

"Thirteen, I really read it right at the time. You really have the potential to be a leader. These words are exactly what I want to say. This is why we changed our name to 'Genesis'."

At this time, Xiao Qi leaned over and whispered in my ear mysteriously: "Actually, this name comes from a chapter in the Bible, and I told him first."

I smiled helplessly, poked Xiao Qi, told him to keep quiet and save some face for the old man.

Since Liu Jianguo was not going to speak, everyone picked up their backpacks again and got ready to go.Same as the previous steps, pulled Jiang Shan into the groove on the black door with the Candle Dragon Sword and Candle Dragon Halberd respectively.

In about 10 minutes, the door is divided into left and right, and the world inside is fully displayed.

The big guys have seen it or not, and they rushed up one after another, intending to take a glimpse of what this underworld looks like.But Zhang Feng and I froze in place, not moving for a long time.

The reason is that the world behind this door is completely different from what we have seen before.It was originally a peaceful and quiet place, but now it is called a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. Although no corpses can be seen, the salty smell in the air clearly proves this.

"Brother, tell me, what's happening here? Why does it look like the concentration camp written in the junior high school textbook?"

"I feel the same way."

Zhang Feng walked forward quickly, came to Zhuge Qing's side and asked: "Mr. Zhuge, is this the change you mentioned? Here, what happened?"

Mr. Zhuge said without changing his face, "This is not the scariest side, you will know later. Alright, everyone line up according to the formation I arranged before, let's go and meet it!"

it?
I stepped forward a few steps and asked Mr. Zhuge what this "it" refers to?Could it be that the candle dragon was resurrected?

"It's much more terrifying than that, okay, it's useless to talk, let's go."

Everyone marched slowly according to the previous formation.I found that the ambient light here has changed, no matter where I am, I feel that it is fiery red.

I didn't know the cause of this phenomenon until I passed by a crack in the ground.

Looking down from the crack, a wave of heat gushed out, hitting the face with extreme anxiety.And the red light was released by the magma below the crack. I thought, this place will collapse in a short time.

I broke away from the formation, walked up to Mr. Zhuge and asked him, "Mr. Zhuge, I don't understand something."

"I know what you're going to say, why is no one taking care of this place, right?" He paused for a moment, then continued: "It was because of Zhao Bai's actions back then that this space collapsed, and I'm afraid the higher-ups have already planned to abandon this place. "

I thought for a while and said, "Abandon what you mean, do you give up completely, or destroy it and rebuild it? I was lucky enough to meet Master Zhang Heng, the ghost emperor, and he said that this place really seems to be destroyed and then rebuilt."

"You already know, why do you need to ask me again?" After he said that, he ignored me and quickly walked forward to inspect the surrounding environment.

Hey, why am I like a married woman?It's a bit unpopular to stick the door upside down, but I'm not!It's only now that I've calmed down, and it's easier to get along with Jiang Nianqing emotionally.

Jiang Shan came to my side at some point, and said in a low voice: "He's like this, he's just talking all day long, don't take it to heart."

"He's your father. Why do you say that? Although what you said makes sense."

After returning to the team with Jiang Shan, they found that there was no danger around them, so they told Qin Zhaodi and Zhou Peng to hurry up and catch up with Mr. Zhuge.

As soon as my words fell, everyone's overall speed increased, and I thought that being a leader is pretty good, and I was intoxicated by my rights.

However, in the process of marching, I have been carefully recalling the scene when I came here.It turned out that this was not the path that had been taken before.

Except for the black stone road we walked in the middle, there was not a single building in sight.When I came last time, it was obvious that there were broken tiles and remnants all over the wilderness, and there were also some withered vegetation that could not be named, scattered and swaying in the breeze.

But now, apart from the ashes floating in the sky, there are cracks in the ground.The narrow one is less than one centimeter, and the wide one has to be jumped over.

"Stop!"

Mr. Zhuge greeted us to stop from a distance, wondering if something happened.

I looked into the distance nervously, my heart was very nervous, and my hand subconsciously touched the candle dragon halberd behind me.The other hand was tightly held by Jiang Shan, and I could feel that her palm was full of sweat now.

Li Qing was about to go over to have a look, but I stopped him, and hurriedly said: "Brother Li, you should stay here, I'll go and have a look."

After finishing speaking, I ran over quickly and looked back. For some reason, Zhang Feng and Xiao Qi also followed.It is understandable for Xiao Qi to be worried about Xia Juanjuan, but why is Zhang Feng following along to join in the fun?
Forget it, I followed up anyway, and after walking to Mr. Zhuge, I found him squatting on the ground, holding a handful of soil in his hand and holding it in front of his nose to sniff.

"What do you hear, senior?" Zhang Feng leaned forward, staring at the handful of soil and asked inexplicably.

"No, go back quickly, we have to go another way." After Mr. Zhuge finished speaking, he threw down the soil in his hand, then turned his head and started to leave.

I followed behind him, after hesitating for a long time, I opened my mouth and said, "It's too dangerous to go the other way, besides, there's no way?"

"Yes, I think it's safer to walk on the Black Stone Road. If we stray into this wilderness, we will easily encounter unnecessary battles." Zhang Feng also echoed.

Mr. Zhuge didn't answer, but walked back quickly. Suddenly, I felt a slight vibration on the ground under my feet, and there were bursts of strange noises behind me.

Mr. Zhuge, who was walking in front, stopped and said without looking back: "It's late, it seems that we still have to meet it."
