Overshadowing the sun is always a demon
Chapter 18 The Bridge to Another World
Xiao Tang's bottle contained some kind of transparent liquid. When the blood dripped into it, it immediately divided into blood cells the size of pearls. Some other very small white balls should be the venom of the separated corpse insects.Originally, Xiao Tang planned to keep the two things and sell them separately, but he didn't expect that after the two things were separated in the bottle, the red blood cells began to swallow the white balls at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Fadu was dumbfounded, even though the initial liquid stratification and condensation into small balls were similar to the benzene extraction, but the process of blood cells swallowing venom is difficult to explain scientifically.Because of this characteristic, Fadu recovered much faster than the others. He was in a coma for only about half an hour, while the others only woke up one after another after about two hours.
There is no sun, moon, morning and evening, and no clocks. Time no longer has meaning here.In this vast, dark space, everything is unknown, and the longer the delay, the more likely accidents will happen.Of course, Xiao Tang didn't waste time. After all the bitten people woke up, they immediately packed up and set off.
Fadu thought that since the goal was Ghost Eye Gorge, it should at least lead to the ground when he got here, but he didn't expect that the stairs kept slanting downwards, and the fluorescent sticks always rolled down when thrown down, and the black paint was illuminated by the lights. The paint is bottomless.The further you go down, the temperature becomes warmer. The stone wall is covered with a thick layer of yellow substance. From time to time, there will be a hot spring gushing out. If you walk like this, it seems that you can go directly to the center of the earth.
The place where the hot spring gushes forms a lot of platforms clustered together, like layers of mushrooms, and a strange small fish actually lives in the thin layer of water on the platform.Because it is dark here all year round, their eyes have almost degenerated, their bodies are pure white, their heads are huge, and their swimming speed is very slow.
When he stopped to rest again, Fadu stared at the small fish swimming back and forth in the water hot enough to cook eggs and began to complain: "Why are all the creatures here so ugly?"
Xiao Tang gnawed on his dry rations and replied, "Anyway, it's so dark here that no one can see anyone, so let's just lengthen it casually."
Fadu: -_-!
The stairs kept going down, seemingly endlessly.In order to save energy, everyone turned off the lights and walked silently by the light of the fluorescent sticks. The sound of melting steel in the boiler gradually sounded in the ears, the whistling wind passed through the hall, and the temperature was getting higher and higher. higher.
Fa Du suddenly stopped.
Seeing him stop, Xiao Tang immediately asked, "What did you find?"
"There was a cold current just now, did you feel it?"
Xiao Tang shook his head silently: "Is there anything else that makes you feel wrong?"
"I smell a bad smell."
"There are many sulfur springs here, is it the smell of sulfur?"
"I have soaked in hot springs, and it smells completely different from sulfur. It smells like the stench of dead fish, but the smell is not strong and not pungent at all... The smell is very light, and if you don't smell it carefully I won’t find out.” Fadu hesitated a little when he spoke, because the smell came and went, and even he himself wasn’t sure whether it was real or an illusion created in this environment.
When Fadu said this, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, obviously no one else smelled this smell except him.
"Maybe it's my illusion." Although there is a vast space here, the air inside has been stagnant for thousands of years, and it is not surprising that there is some strange smell mixed in. Maybe the Tang family has long been used to it, but It was strange for him to see it for the first time.
Xiao Tang thought for a second in the dark and came to a conclusion: "Go ahead, everyone should be more careful."
The more Fadu walked down, the smell became clearer and clearer.
There are no weird things around, the abyss is on the left, the stone wall is on the right, and there is only his own shadow on the rough stone steps under his feet, nothing else.Strange, so where does this smell come from?
Fadu turned his head to look at the stone wall, could it be the smell emanating from the stone wall?
He reached out and touched the stone wall on the right. He had seen the mushroom stone platform and sulfur spring on the stone wall before. It was not surprising that the tentacles were wet. The strange thing was that the temperature of the stone wall was surprisingly cold even though the temperature here was so high.He looked at his finger under the light of the fluorescent stick, and there was no blood or mucus on it. He tried to smell it under his nose, but it didn't matter, he was so disgusted that he almost vomited.
He couldn't say exactly what was causing the smell, but it did trigger a fear in him.
Where does this stone step lead to?At the end of this stone step, is there something terrible?
"Xiao Tang, you can't go down anymore, come and smell it." Fa Du rubbed against the stone wall again, and then moved directly in front of Xiao Tang's nose.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Tang's reaction was far stronger than he expected, his body froze for a moment, and then he fell towards the cliff in a dazed state.Fadu was stunned for a moment, hugged him in a hurry, but was dragged and lost his balance: "Liu Shun, come and help!"
"Hey!" In fact, Liu Shun didn't need to greet him at all, and Liu Shun had already rushed over, dragging them back to lean on the stone steps.
"Little Tang...what's wrong with Xiao Tang?" Fadu looked at the Invincible Abyss below in shock, and then looked at Xiao Tang who rolled his eyes in pain, and had many more questions.
Uncle Zhongyi was not in a hurry at all, he was still playing with his little stone in his hand: "It's okay, it should be evil spirits invading from the situation, what did you smell to him just now?"
"The water on the stone wall..." Fadu stretched out his hand but didn't dare to go over to let him smell it. Xiao Tang lay down. The most reliable person in this team is Uncle Zhongyi. If he also lay down, it would be true. The guilt is great.
Uncle Loyalty's attitude was obviously much more cautious, but he just fanned the smell with his hands from a distance, and his face turned pale, and he retched for a while.
"This is corpse water... the most evil thing. Ordinary people will be seriously ill if they get a drop of it. Even if the Tang family has been using various medicines to strengthen their physique, they will suffer like Shaolei for a while..." Uncle Zhongyi suddenly stopped, The eyes became very strange.
In fact, it wasn't just Uncle Zhongyi, the whole team looked at him strangely.
Fadu was still alive and kicking even though his hands were stained with the corpse water. Obviously, the blood of the Blood Refining Sect of Huasheng Temple was stronger than the corpse water, and he was not affected by the evil energy of the corpse water at all.
It was not adoration or curiosity, but a frightening frenzy, as if faced with a hard-won treasure.The unreasonable look in that look made Fadu feel terrified.
"Your uncle, it's okay to smell the corpse water for me... Are you fucking trying to kill me!" Xiao Tang cursed angrily just after regaining consciousness, but broke the strange atmosphere at this time.
"Corpse water? Isn't it stone water?" Uncle Zhongyi spoke with a strong local accent, and Fadu always felt that it was water born from stones, and it was nothing serious except for the unpleasant smell.
"Corpse water! Corpse's corpse!"
When Xiao Tang said this, Fadu almost vomited: "The corpse...was it flowing from the corpse?"
Xiao Tang seemed to be very relieved by his virtue, but Alfonso stood up and explained to him: "Corpse water is a Chinese folk name. They think it is something produced by the condensation of corpse gas. What they said is the most The coldest places, such as mausoleums and old abandoned houses, are very easy to breed germs. Especially mausoleums, they have been closed underground for many years. The closed state of the body made the germs mutate, in addition to the germs produced by the decay of the corpse, once these germs are contacted by modern people, the result may be fatal. Therefore, in our research, it is generally believed that the pathogenic principle of corpse water is the germs , the composition of the corpse water is not directly related to the corpse... I mean, do you feel better?"
Fadu replied painfully: "...not at all."
Evil energy and corpse energy are actually very mysterious concepts, but people are more or less sensitive to these things. Ever since corpse water appeared on the wall, everyone was somewhat uncertain.The Tang family was used to licking blood with knives and going through life and death. This group of people didn't know how many tombs they had entered and how many monsters they had dealt with. They would not even frown in ordinary scenes.But this place is very dark, filled with a very strong breath of death, anyone who has been in contact with death will be familiar with this breath, but when hundreds of thousands of death breaths converge into a torrent overwhelmingly pressing towards you , What kind of thrilling is that.
The temperature was getting higher and higher, but Fadu couldn't help shivering. The coldness penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and even made him stiff from the cold.Xiao Tang refused to approach with a disgusted expression on his face, and Fadu had his hands full of corpse water and couldn't afford to waste the limited drinking water to wash his hands, so he just huddled in the line foolishly.
"Wait a minute." The light stick that was thrown down this time did not roll down again, but was bounced back up.The bottom is no longer a ladder, but a path that stretches straight forward.It wasn't until he actually set foot on that path that Fadu discovered that it was actually made of a pile of almost completely transparent crystals.In the absence of light, that passage is perfectly integrated in the darkness, and people stepping on it is like walking on clouds, so light and completely unreal.In the presence of light, those stones glowed like mist, and one end was placed in the boundless darkness, like a bridge leading to another world.
"What kind of material is this... Is it reliable?" Fa Du held Xiao Tang tightly. Although he knew that he couldn't see anything even if he looked down, he didn't even have the courage to look down.No wonder so many people are frightened on the glass plank road of Tianmen Mountain. Standing on the cloud for 1 minute will protect you from being a hero. Courage does.
"There are so many wonders in the world, human beings know only one ten-thousandth of their own world, how can I know everything." Xiao Tang still looked contemptuous, "You bastard, just give me a hand, don't wipe the dirty things on me. "
"This... how deep is it down here?" Fadu is obviously not the only one who is afraid of heights. Liushun is usually quite courageous, but his legs are weak when he gets here, so he can only be dragged forward by Uncle Zhongyi.
"Don't look down, the more you look, the easier it is to lose your balance." Mazi added later.
"Hey! Be careful..." Liushun slid down a bit, and the fluorescent stick used for lighting came out of his hand and flew out along the side of the passage.There is obviously no steam or water mist in the darkness below, and the range of sight is extremely far away. I saw the green light kept rolling and falling downwards, and the light spot became smaller and smaller, and then disappeared. In the sight of everyone.
Fadu was dumbfounded, even though the initial liquid stratification and condensation into small balls were similar to the benzene extraction, but the process of blood cells swallowing venom is difficult to explain scientifically.Because of this characteristic, Fadu recovered much faster than the others. He was in a coma for only about half an hour, while the others only woke up one after another after about two hours.
