across mountains and seas

Chapter 161 The Great Hall

Without the hidden arrows shot from time to time, and with Jing Lan's help, the only remaining mechanism beast was soon pierced through its oil sac, tilted its body, and fell into the water. As the water level sank, it sank to the bottom of the water. bottom.

The three breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other in shock.

Liu Xi held back her stomach and wanted to say something, she looked at Jing Lan fiercely, she was also seriously injured, and this is not a good place to settle accounts, she swallowed her words resentfully, and hurriedly raised the knife to spare On the sandy shore, I found an open stone gate gurgling into the water on the other side.

"The fierce beast is sucked by the water gate, so it must be impossible to go there." Liu Xi said coldly.

Jing Lan walked over, seeing the only way out at this time, whether it was a dead end or a way out, she could only take a gamble, "There is a sharp edge down there, be careful when going down." After finishing speaking, she spotted the threshold of Shimen and flew Sweeping down, it landed firmly on the threshold—the water has leaked down to the knees, and the speed of the water flow is obviously much slower than before. Standing on the threshold will not be swept into the door by the torrent.She put away Chong Xiao and Ye Mingzhu, "Jump to me."

Liu Xi took a step back, "Miss Jin, you go down first."

Right now, Ling Dang only feels tired. After the battle, she was hungry and tired. If it wasn't for the pain from the wounds on her body, she might be able to sleep soundly if she fell down.

She walked to the sandy shore, turned her silver gun and glanced in Jing Lan's direction, but the distance was not close.She gasped, took a few steps back, and jumped down with a run-up.

Jing Lan stretched out her arms to catch the bell firmly, turned around and supported her against the door, "Miss Jin, stand up first." After speaking, she looked at Liu Xi with concern.

At this moment, the behemoth that was sucked on the other side let out a huge roar, and struggled frantically, as if trying to break free from the stone gate.

"Crack!" The copper ring attached to its tail suddenly fell down, and then water gushed out from the gap in the copper ring.

Bell only felt a shock in his vest, and the stone door moved slowly, as if he was about to close it again.

"Not good! The mechanism is resetting!" Jing Lan exclaimed in surprise, using her inner strength to press her palms heavily on the stone gate, urgently urging Liu Xi to come down quickly, "Sister-in-law, come down quickly!"

To make matters worse, the stone door on the giant beast's side was closed a little, and the suction force was much reduced. The giant beast suddenly broke free, roared, and rushed towards this side frantically.

All this happened in the blink of an eye, Liu Xi reluctantly jumped down.

Jing Lan freed up a hand, put her arms around Liu Xi's waist and pulled her to the back, and took advantage of the momentum to hold Liu Xi and fell into the door together.

The stone door was closed very quickly, and it was tightly closed in an instant.

"Are you all right?" Bell put down the silver gun, and stepped forward to help the two of them up.

Jing Lan shook her head and said solemnly: "We can't stay here for long, the giant beast's tail is connected to the mechanism that opens the stone gate, if it gets crazy and pulls the mechanism again, and the water floods in from the stone gate, none of us can escape. "While speaking, she raised her eyes to look at the stone wall on the top. The stone wall is not high. Once the door is opened to pour water, the golden bell will not be able to swim, and Liuxi is seriously injured. Living with the two of them is difficult even for self-protection.

Liuxi looked around, and saw a beam of light shining from below not far away. There should be a sinkhole and the only exit of this waterway.

So far, there is only one way to go to the dark.

Liu Xi stood up and said in a deep voice, "Let's go."

Seeing that her complexion was not good, Jing Lan was full of anger, and knew [-]% that she was annoyed that she lied to her.She opened her mouth, and considering that there was a bell beside her, she couldn't apologize or coax her softly, so she could only sigh softly, and walked in front silently.

The three of them had countless major and minor injuries, and it was not good to clean them here, so they could only grit their teeth and endure the pain, and first walked down for a while, to find a slightly safer place, and then examine how the injuries were?

Jing Lan walked to the edge of the sinkhole, probed down to look around under the light, and said in shock, "There is a secret passage hidden here!"

She originally thought that there would be a narrow and long waterway going down the drain. There is a waterway, and it slopes all the way down, but there is also a hidden stone step that goes all the way down in the opposite direction of the waterway. I don't know where it leads to?

The craftsman who designed this secret passage at the beginning was really ingenious.

The water flows in through the door, rushes into the sinkhole, and will only flow down the same waterway.Just like a waterfall cascading all the way, the secret path is hidden behind the waterfall. Even if someone is washed down by the water, they can only be washed down along the waterway.What's more amazing is that the place about the lower arm of the sinkhole is illuminated by a circle of huge luminous pearls, which are dazzlingly bright, and the water splashes at the mouth of the waterway, intersecting with the pearly light, making it even more difficult to find the location of this secret passage.

Jing Lan didn't have time to marvel at the ingenious design of this place, she got into the waterway first, turned her head and said to the two people behind her: "The entrance is slippery, be careful when you come down." After she finished speaking, she waited for a while until Liuxi and Bell were both together. After following down, I continued to move forward with peace of mind.

The secret passage is not completely dark, on the contrary, every other section is illuminated by a night pearl embedded in the wall.

After walking for about half an hour, the three of them finally came to the end of the secret path.

It was a red lacquered gate, with auspicious beasts and auspicious clouds carved on it, and many spider threads strung on the copper ring, obviously it had been dusty for a long time.If this is still a part of the mirage, this should be the first floor of the Buddha's Inscription, presumably there will be no evil things inside, go in and find a dry place, first inspect and bandage the wound on your body.

The three of them had the same thought, so they pushed open the red-painted door together.

A strong fragrance came over the face, it was like a temple that had been silent for many years, and there were many unlit fragrances in it.Jing Lan took out the luminous pearl, walked to the Qibao glazed lamp in front of the main hall by the light of the luminous pearl, jumped up lightly, and lit the Qibao glazed lamp.

The petals of the glazed lamp refract and magnify the light from the wick, and the moment it is lit, the darkness in the hall is completely dispelled by the light.

The three of them gasped at the same time, not because they saw anything terrible, but because of the picture of hundreds of Buddhas carved on the stone wall in the middle of the hall-the stone wall is slightly inclined, and the hundreds of Buddhas are solemn and precious on it. It seems to come out from the stone wall.

The sense of majesty that hit their faces made the three of them inexplicably awed.

No one dared to raise their eyes to take another look at the picture of the hundred Buddhas.

Liu Xi quietly looked at the stone platform under the stone wall. If this place is really related to the Temple of Death, there may be some mechanism here that can lift the entire building to the outside.

Jing Lan saw Liu Xi walking straight towards the huge stone platform under the stone wall, only then did she realize that there was a bloody bite mark on her foot. Thinking of the way Liu Xi had walked so hard, Jing Lan couldn't help but say: : "You're still showing your strength even though you're hurt!" As she spoke, she caught up with Liu Xi and held her back, "Sit down and treat the wound first!"

"Why, you are only allowed to show off your abilities?" Liu Xi was furious, and glanced at the wound on Jing Lan's neck, "You are not much better than me."

Jing Lan frowned, "You are still angry with me at this time!"

"How dare I get angry with the young master!" Liu Xi stabbed something in his words, and brushed away Jing Lan's hand with his backhand. Seeing Jing Lan hiss in pain, he wondered if he had used too much force, After hurting her, my heart softened, so I held back the words I wanted to teach, and changed to another sentence, "Sit down!"

Jing Lan turned her face away and got angry, "Don't worry about it."

It's just that she has always been unable to resist Liu Xi, so she was dragged by Liu Xi to sit down when she finished speaking.

At this moment, the sound of the bell rang suddenly, and she had already noticed that the wound was a little strange, "Those arrows are poisonous!"

Hearing the bell's reminder, Jing Lan hurriedly looked at the wound on Liu Xi's body.

Sure enough, the flesh at the wound turned blue, which is the sign of poisoning.

"What are you still doing?" Liu Xi glared at Jing Lan. She and Jing Lan both had "Fish-Dragon Dance Jue" body protection, and the venom would kill them for a while, but the bell was different.

Jing Lan didn't dare to hesitate, "Miss Jin, sit down quickly, my sister-in-law and I will force you to persecute you." After speaking, she and Liu Xi stood up and walked to Ling Dang.

The three of them sat cross-legged.

Liu Xi sat on the left side of the bell, and Jing Lan sat on the right side of the bell.

"Golden girl, stretch out your palm."

Ling Dang's palms stretched out horizontally, touching the palms of Liu Xi and Jing Lan.

Keep quiet and be quiet.

Liu Xi and Jing Lan concentrated on urging Qi Dan to circulate at the same time, and passed the inner breath through the palm of the bell, forcing the venom in each other's blood to continuously flow out of the wound.

She and her inner aura were like fire, burning the blood vessels so painfully, and the poisonous blood gushing out of the wound made the wound several times more painful than before.

The three of them endured the pain, circulated their inner breath in each other's blood for three weeks, and after confirming that all the venom had been forced out of the body, Liu Xi and Jing Lan stopped, each crossed their knees to breathe, and the rolling breath Dan gradually calmed down.

Liu Xi opened Jing Lan's eyes for a moment, looked at Jing Lan's slightly pale face, and it would be a lie to say that she didn't feel distressed.

Who made her like this girl's stupidity?Although A Lan tricked her into taking risks alone, which made her feel sad and annoyed, the reason was also because Jing Lan wanted to fight for everyone's survival.

What's wrong with her?

Liu Xi breathed a sigh of relief, tore off a section of the drenched sleeve, and made several more, stood up and came behind Jing Lan.

Jing Lan heard the movement, and stared at her blankly.

"Don't move." Liu Xi reprimanded lightly, but the movements of his men did not stop at all, and quickly wrapped the cloth strip around Jing Lan's neck, and tied the knot neatly.

Jing Lan pursed her lips, and the words stuck in her throat could only be said, "I...don't be so brave next time..."

"Show off, try to show off, at worst, my sister-in-law will risk her life with you, and it will be over." After a slight pause, Liu Xi changed the subject, "I don't want to kneel in the mourning hall in sackcloth and mourning..." Liu Xi said After finishing, when I raised my eyes to look at Jing Lan, there were tears in my eyes, "Be strong! Don't let the world think that my fate is hard. I beat my husband to death on the first day I got started, and my second uncle got sick after I got started. Give the youngest brother-in-law..." At the end, she held back those words and asked, "Where else was bitten?"

Hearing what Liu Xi said, Ling Dang suddenly felt relieved from what he had felt strange before.

She originally had such thoughts, that's why she protects Jing Lan, this little uncle in everything.The world is the most harsh on women, and they have to drag women to bear some of the blame for anything wrong. Liu Xi, a widowed wife, must have had a bad time in the Jing family.

Thinking of this, Ling Dang felt more distressed for Liu Xi, so she helped Liu Xi and said: "A long sister-in-law is like a mother, Jing Lan, you should treat your sister-in-law better."

Jing Lan thought she had heard wrong, and looked at Ling Dang in astonishment.

Ling Dang gave her a blank look, "What? If I have an elder brother, and marry me such a capable sister-in-law, I'm afraid I'll wake up laughing in the middle of the night! I don't know how to be blessed when I am blessed!"

Liu Xi suppressed a smile, "Listen, Miss Jin is more sensible than you."

Jing Lan pursed her lips, but she couldn't argue. After all, it was one against two, and she was definitely not their match.

"Sister Liu, I'm here to bind you." Seeing that Jing Lan wanted to help Liu Xi bind the wound on his foot, Ling Dang took a step ahead of Jing Lan and pushed Jing Lan away, "After all, uncle and sister-in-law are different, so I'll do it."

Jing Lan stood up with a wry smile, and when she lowered her head, she saw the smug smile on Liu Xi's lips, what else could she do?It would be great if Xi'er doesn't annoy her, otherwise she really doesn't know how to comfort her.

"Laojin is here." Liu Xi smiled and nodded.

Ling Dang laughed and said, "Grandpa taught me a lot of ways to first aid wounds in the military, so it's all right."

Jing Lan didn't dare to intervene, and simply returned to the stone platform again.Liu Xi has been staring at this side just now, presumably she must have thought of something?Jing Lan leaned on the edge of the stone platform, carefully looking at the carvings on the stone platform.

The carvings are ordinary, and there is nothing special about them.

But the top of the stone platform is empty, which seems weird instead.
