White Bone Monkey King

Chapter 363 The Eighth Person

"?"

The Wu brothers, who had been driven crazy by this place for a long time, hurriedly asked Xi Jian if they had seen anything.

Next, according to Chi Jian's explanation, the heaven and earth bone pit they were in was somewhat similar to a compass and a prayer wheel on the upper and lower levels. This vertical pit was actually divided into upper and lower parts, which rotated in opposite directions to each other. .

So when they seemed to be climbing up the road to the sky, they were actually being carried backwards by the double-layered compass.

As they walked down, they were actually being carried backwards and upwards by the double-layered compass.

It looks like it's up, but it's actually down.

It looks like it's down, but it's actually up.

In addition, the rock walls here absorb light, and it is easy to overlook the details, as well as the hypnotic effect of the hanging coffins on all sides, which constantly numbs people, weakens people's reaction and thinking ability, and confuses people's sense of up and down direction, so this causes them An illusion, this abyss pit is infinitely long.

This is indeed a clever Qimen Dunjia game used to trap people.

It's not like some underground palace came to life to trap them.

If you want to prove the statement of sharpening the sword, there is actually an answer from the beginning, and that answer comes from Xu Anping's voice.

When they heard the sound behind them and descended to the bottom of the pit, Xu Anping's shouts turned into going in opposite directions above their heads; when they climbed back up, Xu Anping's shouts once again turned into going in opposite directions into the deep pit at their feet.

No matter how hard they try, they are always at odds with the outside world and can never reach the end.

This is an endless cycle.

After hearing this, Jin An immediately understood the truth. Isn't this the principle of elevators?

Jin An laughed loudly and praised Xiejian: "Disciple, you are so powerful. I never thought you knew Qimen Dunjia secretly."

At this time, even the old Taoist priest was impressed and praised Jiejian for being awesome. This time he would not accept his old age. Jiajian's attainments in Qimen Dunjia were definitely higher than his.

Chi Jian's face, which looked like a living person and a dead person, was dull from beginning to end: "I don't know why I suddenly recalled this, as if it was in my mind."

As expected, he was worthy of being a thief. Even after being seriously injured and losing his memory, he could still instinctively find a way to break the situation. Jin An comforted Xi Jian and said that he should take his time to restore his memory and not be in a hurry, so as not to cause any irreversible damage to the brain.

Jin An discovered that, unknowingly, the old Taoist priest and the sharp sword had become his lucky stars. If they were missing, the three-legged cat feng shui skills he had just begun to learn would not be able to penetrate deep into the underground palace.

Then, he pondered: "Now that we have figured out the Qimen Dunjia principle of this pothole, we should find out the upper and lower distance limits of this double-layered rotating drum."

"There must be a length limit between the two, and there must be a platform for switching between them. If you find that platform and find a way to break through, you can successfully escape."

This is like the head and feet of two ladders, one up and one down. Each of them must have a platform for people to stand safely. This platform is the hanging coffin on all sides, but it is deeply hidden by Feng Shui and Yin Escape. Now they must break through these two situations and find the two most critical hanging coffins.

Just after Jin An finished speaking, the old Taoist priest said excitedly: "'Nine extremes, ten is the original void', 'Fifty avenues, forty-nine Tianyan, escape one of them', little brother, do you still remember that five-color earth pagoda?" ?"

"If the Taoist master from thousands of years ago had predicted us today, he must have left us a glimmer of hope. I think these two sentences must be the clues left for us."

"Everything is determined by heaven. We, like our divination masters, cannot reveal the secrets of heaven, otherwise the secrets of heaven will turn into murderous intent, and we will surely destroy ourselves. That senior certainly cannot reveal the secrets of heaven to us, so he can only leave it to us in a subtle way. Give guidance, but this obscure guidance cannot be too difficult to guess, it must be able to be guessed by us."

"So I think the first two sentences must be the key."

Not to mention, after thinking about it carefully, everyone present felt that the old Taoist priest's analysis was reasonable, and everyone surprisingly unanimously agreed with the old Taoist priest's statement.

"Master, it should be ninety-nine feet." At this moment, Xiejian suddenly spoke.

Chi Jian explained that he had calculated the distance, and every time he had to walk about ninety feet before he could hear Xu Daozhang's shout.

"Nine-nine returns to one, this matter is coming to an end!" the old Taoist priest shouted with joy.

Since finding a way out of trouble, the morale of the team became full of fighting spirit again. Then everyone started to break the Qimen Dunjia game without further delay.

Thanks to the old Taoist priest, he had everything in his Tai Chi Bagua bag, including the ink line that he had used to suppress corpses several times during his years as a wandering Taoist priest.

They can just use this ink fountain line to locate specific distances.

Next, Jin An took the ink pipe thread handed to him by the old Taoist priest. After calculating the length of ninety-nine feet in advance, he tied one end of the hanging coffin so that he could retract the thread with a hard pull, and shook the other end. Holding the wheel in his hand, he started to turn the wheel. While placing the long line, he quickly jumped over one hanging coffin after another. At the same time, he paid attention to the length of the ink fountain line to determine the distance.

After going back and forth three times, I finally located the hanging coffin with the clearest sound.

At this time, no one cared about why only the sword-sharpening person could hear outside sounds. Both Jin An and the old Taoist priest thought it had something to do with the special physique of the person who was cutting the sword-snatching corpse.

Corpse hunters are meant to walk between the dead and darkness. The darker the world, the more acute their senses.

As for the Wu brothers and Old Man Qi, ever since they were forced to listen to Jin An's daily short story, they kept their mouths shut all the way, fearing that Jin An would really leave them alone.

This time, they no longer paid attention to the faint shouts of Xu Anping behind them. Now that they had found where the upper and lower limits of the rotating drum were, they could just focus on solving the situation in front of them.

"You all stand aside and let me draw my bow and test the way forward." Jin An bent his bow and set an arrow. There was no arrow on the bowstring, only a divine treasure that exuded divine light.

At this time, in order to find a way out, he had no choice but to endure the pain and cut his body.

Buzz!

As soon as his fingers were loosened, the divine treasure on the bow string was quickly shot out.

call out!

Unexpectedly, just as Jin An shot the divine treasure forward, it flew back quickly without losing speed. Jin An raised his arm to catch the divine light that flew back from the original path.

Bang, the tiger's palm was shaken to the point of pain. The stone bow was so powerful that even if the arrow it shot was not a sharp arrow, it still made his arm sore.

"Sure enough, this place is an escape trap of infinite reincarnation. Going up is going down, and going down is going up. It's always going in the opposite direction." Old Man Qi and the others felt refreshed and felt that they had finally found a way out.

After that, Jin An tried to bend his bow and set an arrow a few more times, but each time the divine light shot out would instantly return to the original path.

After a few attempts, he started to frown.

"It's too early to be happy to say this now." Jin An squinted his eyes, trying to see the dark world ahead clearly, his eyebrows frowning more and more.

"What, what do you mean?" Old Qi and the others' voices were trembling, their eyes were frightened, and they looked expectantly at Jin An, who was constantly trying to shoot arrows.

"Let me ask you, we are walking on hanging coffins and iron chains with our feet. We are affected by the Qimen Dunjia and always fall back. Do the things I shoot out with the stone bow have feet? They fly out and fly back in the same direction. This What does it mean?"

Jin An's voice became deeper and deeper as he spoke, as if he was thinking of countermeasures.

After thinking for a moment, he continued: "This shows that there is a strange space in front of us. Even if we find the correct exit, we will still be sent back."

Hearing this, the old Taoist priest murmured to himself: "It's clearly right in front of you, but you can't get there no matter how far you go. Isn't this just so close to the end of the world..."

At this moment, Xiejian and Ruby Girl all turned their heads and looked to the right. There was a dark area, but according to common sense, there were solid rock walls with no way to go on both sides.

Suddenly.

Jin An seemed to notice something, and he also turned to look to the right.

"Do you still remember that I once said that only the dead are the most sensitive to the dead?" The first person to speak was the Hongyu girl, her voice was thick like a tomboy's.

"Actually, the dead are also most sensitive to the yang energy in the living. It's an uncomfortable feeling like looking directly at the flames."

"The longer we stay here, the more obvious the discomfort becomes. It seems that our idea of ​​finding a way out is right. This is the weakest point of the entire Qimen Dunjia Bureau."

She glanced at the man who was also full of corpse aura and death. At the same time, he looked at the sharp sword in the right direction, with no expression of surprise on his face.

What surprised her the most was Jin An.

Unexpectedly, Jin An could also feel the gaze of a living person.

And in her eyes.

Jin An is obviously a living person.

The yang fire in her body was so strong that even a dead person like her felt very uncomfortable, and she deliberately stood far away from the beginning to the end.

Seemingly seeing the confusion in Miss Hongyu's eyes, the old Taoist priest who was the most talkative said cheerfully: "Miss Hongyu, you don't know our little brother, hey, my little brother has a super strong one." His ability is that his eyes can best see through evil people with evil intentions."

The old Taoist priest and Yourong smiled and praised.

Then, the team began to move laterally. When they were groping in the dark and approaching the light-absorbing rock wall, they finally saw a beam of light. Not far from their feet was the entrance to the crack where they first entered the pit. Standing at the entrance were three people. He kept looking into the dark pit, as if he was debating whether to enter.

They have been struggling for so long, and now they are back to the starting point.

But at this time, the few people could not control so much. They finally found the gap, and they all jumped out of the crack as if they were reborn. The three people standing at the entrance of the crack were Xu Anping, Monk Qianshi, and a strange old man who had separated before. This is another outsider who discovered the secret under the deep valley and followed the vines they left outside to enter the underground palace.

Looking at the old man with a strange face, Jin An always felt very familiar. When he thought about it carefully, he couldn't help but feel happy. Isn't this the old man Ku Zhu?

He had fought against the opponent once, so he was familiar with the aura that occasionally leaked from his body. Could it be that the evil gaze he felt just now came from Old Man Kuzhu? Did the other party also recognize him?

Jin An pretended not to recognize Old Man Kuzhu, clasped his fists towards Xu Anping and said gratefully: "Fellow Daoist Xu, we were able to get out of trouble this time, thanks to your perseverance in calling us, which allowed us to successfully find a way to break the situation."

Xu Anping's skin is as warm as jade, his robes are clean, and his temperament is as ethereal as a relegated immortal. It seems that his pursuit of Xiao Ziming and the topsy-turvy world of yin and yang last night did not pose a threat to him.

Xu Anping also showed joy when meeting old friends.

But after hearing Jin An's words, Xu Anping looked confused: "What are you calling me?"

Well.

Jin An's other words suddenly stopped, and he frowned: "Weren't you Daoist Xu just now calling us?"

He turned his head to look at the sharp sword.

At this time, Chi Jian had already put down the old Taoist priest, and he was very sure that it was indeed Taoist Master Xu who was calling them just now.

However, Jin An no longer listened to what Xi Jian said because he found that the number of people in the team was wrong: "Where are Old Man Qi and the Wu brothers who have been following us?"

"Miss Hongyu, aren't the three of them walking with you?"

Jin An looked at the Hongyu girl standing alone.

Hongyu girl was stunned, and her expression changed. The next moment, Jin An, Xiejian, and Hongyu girl ran to the edge of the cliff and looked into the hole. However, it was pitch black inside and they couldn't see far at all. , nothing was seen.

Jin An's face darkened.

The old Taoist priest who also ran over at this time looked at the dark pothole and felt a chill on the back of his neck and said: "Little, little brother, are the three of them dead inside?"

"Aren't the three of them always walking with us? When did the problem... happen?"

Although the old Taoist priest and the pair of Wu brothers were very different from each other.

But at this time, he felt a little bit sad. If they came out a step later, one of them would be the next person to die. Maybe it would be his turn next.

At this moment, the four of them all thought of the terrifying huge black figure lying on the hanging coffin in the third mural prophecy at the same time. When they thought that none of them noticed anything strange about Old Man Qi and the other three, the old Taoist priest's hands and feet went cold.

But what made the goosebumps on his arms explode even more was that seven of them went down, but after three people died, they still had seven people left. If you think about it carefully, the prophecy in the third mural becomes more and more terrifying.

After listening to Jin An's description of their experience in the potholes, Monk Qianshi testified for Xu Anping: "I can testify for Xu Anping that we were always together along the way and never acted alone. We did not see anything in the potholes. you."

After being knocked unconscious in the pothole for most of the day, when I came out, not only did I find that there were three people missing from the team, but Xu Anping himself admitted that he had never called them... Too many things had happened, and his thoughts were a little confused. Jin An calmed down After thinking for a while, I slowly figured it out. There were more than seven of them in the pothole at that time!

Except for a terrifying black shadow!

There is an eighth person!

The other party was very capable and was the first to find a way to break the situation, but for some reason he refused to reveal his true identity and instead hid in the dark to help. Since he can imitate Xu Anping's voice to guide them out of trouble, it means that the person has been with them before and knows that Xu Anping has a friendly relationship with them.

Jin An thought more deeply that he and Xu Anping arrived at the foot of the Holy Mountain on the same day, so the identity of the eighth person was either at the foot of the Holy Mountain at that time, or he was in the team of King Xiao Ling in the underground palace, because this was the only one He and Xu Anping met in two places.

Jin An frowned tightly.

Who is the other party?

Why hide your identity and refuse to show up?

Could it be that the identity of the person who was secretly helping was really one of the Feng Shui masters in the Tianshi Mansion? When he thought of Feng Shui masters, he thought of Mr. Yi, who was also a Feng Shui master.

After hearing Jin An's experience in the pit, Xu Anping and Monk Qianshi looked at each other. Although they knew that the pit was extremely dangerous, they still planned to go to the depths of the underground palace to find a deeper destiny.

"Just in time, we have found a way to break the situation. We will also go into the pit with you, Daoist Xu, and we will definitely be able to successfully pass through the hanging coffin array on all sides this time." Jin An planned to go into the heaven and earth bone pit again.
