Heroic Wife Reborn

400 Another Distress at the End of the Corridor

When Gu Xinglang ran into the corridor, the corpses of four monks fell down in the stone room behind him, and several of them were wounded. They stood in the stone room and did not chase Gu Xinglang into the corridor.

There was a wind running through the north and south of the long corridor, and the smell of blood mixed with rotting corpses was carried by the wind, rushing towards his face, so strong that Gu Xinglang could hardly breathe.

Xiaowei? Gu Xinglang stood in the corridor and called towards the end of the corridor.

At the end of the corridor, there were dim 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 is impossible for Gu Xinglang to leave Xiaowei and Jiang Zhuojun here and run away by himself. 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: Should we lower the door? Seal them inside?

No need, a monk shook his head, pressed his hands tightly to the wound on his chest, and whispered, They can't come out of there alive.

There are twenty steps at the end of the corridor. Gu Xinglang stood in front of the steps, his expression distorted due to excessive nervousness.

The flat ground under the steps was full of humanoid monsters that Gu Xinglang had seen in Dali Temple. On top of these monsters, there were five iron cages hanging. Jiang Zhuojun fell into the iron cage in the middle, and Xiao Wei fell on the top of the iron cage on Gu Xinglang's left, apparently out of desperation, Xiao Wei jumped onto the iron cage to avoid these monsters.

It’s just that I don’t know why, but Jiang Zhuojun who was still shouting to let Gu Xinglang and Xiaowei leave quickly, and Xiaowei who had entered here not long ago, are lying there at the moment, and Gu Xinglang can’t tell whether these two people are still alive.

In the silence, a rustling sound suddenly entered Gu Xinglang's ears.

Gu Sanshao looked down, the flickering candlelight in the wind suddenly lit up, and Gu Xinglang saw the feet of these monsters. Those long insects that the temple has seen.

Fear made Gu Xinglang take a few steps back unconsciously.

A drop of seepage water on the stone wall dripped behind Gu Xinglang, making a tick.

The monsters who were standing quietly at the bottom of the stone steps seemed to be startled by the sound of water droplets, and they turned their necks stiffly together, looking at Gu Xinglang.

The palm of Gu Xinglang's right hand holding the knife was wet and slippery. Under the horror, cold sweat had unconsciously soaked Gu Xinglang's clothes.

At this moment, the iron cage where Xiao Wei was lying on his stomach made a clicking sound.

Gu Xinglang watched helplessly as a hook supporting the weight of the iron cage fell off the top of the stone wall.

The iron cage that lost its balance began to tilt.

The monsters looked at Xiaowei who was about to fall from the iron cage again, and roared, as if seeing a glutton for a feast.

Gu Xinglang jumped up, and when Xiaowei was about to fall from the iron cage, he grabbed Xiaowei. After all, he was the general on horseback, after Gu Xinglang grabbed Xiaowei, it was impossible for him to take Xiaowei to hide in other iron cages, or simply return to the stone steps.

The roars of the monsters became more and more angry. Some monsters standing under the cage stretched out their hands and pulled the iron cage tilted above their heads.

Xiaowei? Gu Xinglang barely stood on the frame of the iron cage, hugged Xiaowei in his arms, and called Xiaowei several times.

Xiao Wei was hugged by Gu Xinglang, unconscious, like a corpse.

Gu Xinglang freed his hand, tested Xiaowei's breath, and confirmed that Xiaowei was still alive, so Gu Xinglang was a little relieved.

Pulled by the monsters, the iron cage shook violently.

Gu Xinglang looked at the stone steps, thinking how he should bring Xiaowei back there.

The sound of Xixisuosuo became louder at this moment, and Gu Xinglang saw the long worms began to climb up the bodies of the monsters, crawling towards the slanted iron cage.

Hurry up, Jiang Zhuojun's voice came from behind Gu Xinglang.

Gu Xinglang turned back in a hurry, and saw Jiang Zhuojun holding the iron cage, looking at him anxiously.

Let's go, Jiang Zhuojun shouted to Gu Xinglang, There is a stone room above here, and there is a mechanism to retract the iron cage.

There are also monsters there? 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 kind of monsters these were.

Can you go to the stone steps with Xiaowei? Jiang Zhuojun asked Gu Xinglang.

Gu Xinglang hugged Xiaowei tightly, borrowing the strength of a few monsters, it is not impossible for him to take Xiaowei away. After finding the stone chamber Jiang Zhuojun mentioned, he can rescue Jiang Zhuojun again.

They will go up the stone steps, Jiang Zhuojun reminded Gu Xinglang, After you take Xiaowei there, hurry up. Gu Xinglang, hurry up.

Gu Xinglang wanted to ask Jiang Zhuojun and Xiaowei why they were unconscious, but at this moment, a deafening bell sounded from the depths of the ground.

No! Jiang Zhuojun yelled.

The loud knocking of the bell shook Gu Xinglang so that his blood surged.

Jiang Zhuojun spat out a mouthful of blood and fell into a coma again.

After hearing the bell, the monsters calmed down, and together they stood still looking at the depths of the plain like what Gu Xinglang had seen just now.

The movements of the long worms seemed to be affected by the bell, and their crawling movements slowed down, but they were still climbing up the iron cage.

Gu Xinglang knew that he couldn't be unconscious, otherwise he and Xiaowei would fall into the crowd of monsters and be torn to shreds by these monsters. But as the bell continued, Gu Xinglang's vision also went dark.

Yu Xiaoxiao showed Tian Xingzi the brass bell in her hand, and said, Master Daoist, is this thing very valuable?

The old man looked carefully at the copper bell hooked by Yu Xiaoxiao on his little thumb. The copper bell was carved and hollowed out, and the workmanship was very exquisite, but what is this kind of small bell worth?

Yu Xiaoxiao put the copper bell under her nose and smelled it, and said, It smells like blood.

The old Taoist hurriedly probed over to smell it, and said, The poor Taoist didn't smell anything.

Er Gouzi said, Is this supposed to be gold?

The old man rolled his eyes at the young man, couldn't he tell the difference between copper and gold?

Stained with human blood, Yu Xiaoxiao affirmed.

The old Taoist looked at the giant 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 figure it out, what's so special about this little brass bell?

Er Gouzi told Yu Xiaoxiao: Princess, shake it and look, maybe the sound of this bell is particularly nice?

Really? Yu Xiaoxiao shook the brass bell hooked in her hand, and then Her Royal Highness and Er Gouzi fell silent together. Not to mention it sounds good, the sound of the bell is too soft, isn't it?

What kind of broken bell is this? Er Gouzi shouted.

Yu Xiaoxiao's novel: It's pretty bad, it's not as good as the string of wind chimes that Xiao Gu gave me.
