Become a cat [Zhan Zhao]

A Lan is not sure whether this strange feeling is due to her hallucinations, she is no longer sure about everything now - the surrounding darkness makes everything deceptive, giving people a strong sense of unreality, even Start to question your own existence.

So, when the heartbeat started to become steady and continuous, Alan pressed his palm to the wall again.The wind in the corridor behind him kept whimpering continuously and brought a piercing chill. The darkness occupying this place seemed to have some kind of entity, giving people the illusion that they could touch it.And she tried to find her true perception through this move, but when she really touched the undulating wall, Alan suddenly found that this move made herself even more confused.

Because the feeling of the heartbeat was so clear, as if what she touched was not the cold wall, but the chest separated by the heart.

For some unknown reason, Ah Lan bent her fingers and tapped lightly on the wall three times, and said in a low voice, "Is anyone there?"

Her voice was particularly dull, and it echoed repeatedly in this section of the corridor, perhaps caused by the environment here.However, that burst of heartbeat beat suddenly, as if it was a response to A Lan, and it seemed to be surprised by A Lan's voice.

If she wasn't crazy, maybe there really was someone behind the wall.

A Lan began to move her palms on the wall. Her palms were pressed against the smooth and cool wall, trying to distinguish the strength of the heartbeat at different positions, hoping to determine the specific location of the "heart".

If this heart really exists.

When Ah Lan was doing this work, her thoughts wandered uncontrollably.What happened in the past two days was so unbelievable that Alan lost confidence in making judgments based on common sense.Whether it's the wolves dispersed by the bell, or the stone men living in the stone palace, perhaps none of them are as weird as this sudden disaster tonight.

The wolves attacked the city, but the instigators behind it were He Lian and Xing Zhongyu.Why did those half-wolf, half-human monsters kill themselves at all costs?What is the important reason for them to dispatch so many troops to besiege an insignificant person?

With a "boom", just when Ah Lan was distracted, the vibration under the palm of her hand called her attention.Alan frowned slightly, and pressed her ears against the cold wall.

"Boom", another vibration.Alan carefully tested the nearby places, and found that this place is indeed the place where the heartbeat is the strongest.So she knocked on the wall again and asked, "Is anyone there?"

The ups and downs of the wall seemed to be a little faster, accompanied by a more violent heartbeat, and even caused a change in the wind, giving Alan the illusion of being inside the monster.She shook her head to get rid of this strange feeling, and stretched out her hand to rub against the wall.

Among the many knowledge Zhan Zhao taught her that she could use in her journey through the world, there was one that was specifically about secret ways.This kind of secret way is usually more common in temples and Taoist temples, maybe this weird place should also be included.If you want to find a secret passage, you can judge whether there is a secret room by tapping the wall to hear if there is a hollow sound, or by estimating the thickness of the wall.

So A Lan tapped lightly on the stone wall, and began to search for the secret room according to the method Zhan Zhao taught her.At first, the sounds seemed to be the same, but when A Lan expanded the range, when the place she struck fell outside a certain range, the sound would suddenly become crisp.

A vague smile appeared on A Lan's face. She cheered up and knocked back and forth, roughly estimating the range of the sound change—about an arm's width, like a door.

"How should I open you?" Ah Lan muttered to herself, trying to relieve her inner tension by speaking.Her icy fingers kept trembling, and her body also trembled slightly, not entirely because the place was too cold.

After pondering for a long time, Ah Lan reached out and pushed hard on the wall.

Suddenly, there was only a sound of "Kara", and the stone wall actually moved back.

Alan, who was just probing without any hope, took a step back in shock, and suddenly raised her arms to block her eyes.The sudden light almost brought her to tears, and her eyes hurt slightly.

When Alan barely got used to the light, she could see clearly what was behind the stone wall—a stone room, a strange stone room.Unlike the stone room on Kuguo Island, which was full of gold, silver and jewels, this stone room was empty.

Except for a stone pillar standing in the middle, there is a thing emitting soft light on it, and the light in the stone room is emitted by this small thing.

Alan's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but slowly took a step forward.And when she walked through the opened stone door, she heard a "bang", and the stone wall closed again.All of a sudden, Alan turned her head and rushed to the wall, it was too late, she could only push, knock and kick with all her strength, but the stone wall did not move at all.

Except for the constant ups and downs.

It was only then that Ah Lan realized that the heartbeat sound was almost as clear as in his ears in this stone room.If the heartbeat in the corridor outside sounds like a layer of chest is separated, then at the moment she seems to be stuck to the edge of the heart.

However, there was nothing else in the stone room except the stone pillar. Seeing that he had no way to retreat, Ah Lan boldly strode forward.

The stone pillar is only half a person high, about the thickness of a bowl.But the luminous object placed on it is difficult to describe in words, and it is difficult to understand.Alan stared at this thing for a while, then couldn't bear to look away, and a large black spot appeared in his field of vision, as if staring at the sun for too long had hurt his eyes.

However, what is certain is that the sound of the heartbeat did not come from here.It seems to be placed here simply, and I don't know how long it has been there, let alone why.

"Is anyone there?" Alan asked again, racking her brains to recall the Jianghu routine that Zhan Zhao told her, and said loudly, "Alan, a guest of His Highness Hanshi, came here by chance. If Offended the master, I hope you will forgive me." She said and cupped her hands.

However, no one answered.Although Alan wasn't surprised—maybe it was a surprise that someone answered.

Seeing that there was no one here, A Lan began to search in this stone room, trying to find another way out.Although she hated the dark corridor outside, even if this place was full of light, she would only freeze to death and starve to death if she waited here.

Zhan Zhao must have been unable to find this strange place.Alan couldn't even tell what it was here.

Is she still in the bell tower?

The only good thing is that the wound on his body is no longer so painful, but turned into a slight itching, which seems to have begun to heal.However, this should also be an illusion. A Lan knew that her injury would never get better in such a short period of time, even if it would not continue to deteriorate.

It's just that in such an environment, people cannot accurately perceive the passage of time.If it wasn't for the strong sense of hunger and thirst, Ah Lan couldn't even judge whether he had stayed here for several days or even several years.

I don't know how long it took, after beating every corner of the stone room, Alan sat down beside the stone pillar.There is no way out here, it is like a prison cell, and she is the trapped beast in that desperate situation.

Panting heavily, Ah Lan leaned back slightly, realizing how unlucky she was recently, to always encounter such weird troubles.What's worse is that Ah Lan has already started to get used to it.She couldn't help being surprised, it turns out that people are used to things like bad luck.

Could it be that meeting Zhan Zhao really exhausted all her luck in her life?

But in order to be able to meet that person, A Lan is willing to pay the price of being unlucky all his life.Thinking of this, she couldn't help showing a smile on the corner of her mouth.

However, at this moment, she suddenly felt a shock in her stomach.

This shock seemed to be not a single one. At the same time, Alan felt that the stone pillar behind him also shook.In horror, she clutched her stomach and jumped up, looking back at the glowing thing on the stone pillar in amazement.

And the belly under the palm seems to be faintly hot, even through so many layers of clothes.Alan didn't feel pain, but felt fear. She had a feeling that something in her stomach wanted to break free.

Suddenly, that vibration came again.Ah Lan clutched her stomach and let out a muffled grunt, and instinctively staggered a step in the direction of the stone pillar—it seemed that some force was pulling her there.

But Ah Lan didn't even care about this, she stared at the stone pillar opposite.Just at the moment when there was a vibration in her abdomen, the luminous thing bounced up suddenly, and rushed towards A Lan's direction, but it seemed to hit an invisible barrier above the stone pillar. As if falling, fell back onto the stone pillar again.

This scene made Alan dumbfounded.She couldn't help but stretched out her fingers to touch the glowing thing, but she didn't touch any barrier.And that glowing thing was also getting hot at the moment, Ah Lan suddenly withdrew her fingers and put her hands back on her stomach.

And she was also surprised to find that her body also seemed to start to glow—maybe the body was not accurate, it was her abdomen that began to emit a soft light, which was very similar to the things on the stone pillar.This kind of light penetrated through the thick clothes and merged with the light outside.

Alan's breathing became heavy, and when the shock came again, she seemed to hear the sound of something breaking—and the stone was also embedded in the air after bouncing up, as if it was stuck in the gap and was desperately trying break free.

And A Lan also felt the ominous movements in her belly, she even had a premonition that this glowing thing would break through all shackles and combine with that thing in her stomach—and the things in her stomach were completely Same.

At that time, will her body also become one of the shackles?Are these things going to penetrate her belly recklessly?

Alan's eyelids trembled slightly, and his fingers twitched slightly.Just when the vibration became more and more violent and the luminous object was about to break free, she suddenly took a step forward, reached out and grabbed the luminous object, opened her mouth and swallowed it.
