Zhao Ge: 41. In the shadows

The one with the biggest crack was just enough to allow one person to pass through. Li Xin held the torch and approached the crack. Just standing in front of the crack, the wind "hula" blowing from inside made the flames shake violently.
Under the fire, Li Xin noticed something unusual in the crack-something in the rock wall on the left.
He turned the blade upside down and tapped the rock formation several times with the back of the blade.
Li Xin originally planned to smash the rock a bit, so that he could see what was hidden in the rock, but he didn't expect the rock formation to break apart just a few times.
"Organization?"
Jun Wanbai reacted quickly, the long sword was erected, and the white streamer enveloped her and Li Xin.
Li Xin hasn't answered yet. The two only heard the sound of clacking chain friction sounding continuously. The rock wall on the left in the crack continued to shatter, and a dark shadow in the vague firelight jumped from the rock. Out.
—It was a huge chain nailed into the rock.
I don't know how long the chain is, and I don't know what nailed it into the rock formation. At this moment, it was pulled by another huge force and slid out of the rock wall amidst the harsh friction.
The chain buried in the rock was pulled, and the cracks that could only allow one person to pass through were expanded, and the rubble continued to fall.
Jun Wanbai's face changed slightly.
The cold wind blowing from the cracks was mixed with a low and low roar of strange beasts—this movement obviously cannot be the aftermath of the "Thunder Dragon Formation" just now!
Thylishu!
The falling rock was still rolling down, Li Xin and Jun Wanbai rushed directly into the cracks where the iron locks were constantly rubbing.
………………………………………………………………………………
The sound of the noose turning, the sound of iron locks rubbing, the sound of rubble falling...A lot of noisy sounds mixed in the sound of the wind, Ye Qiusheng listened carefully, distinguishing what.
He held the ancient blade back, standing in front of Bailishu's left, vaguely showing a semi-defensive and semi-alert attitude. Bailishu stood behind him, quickly cracking the "folding nine products" on the cliff.
Bai Lishu's judgment is not wrong, and it is indeed another hidden chain that can lead to the isolated island on the black water. On the cliff, in the mysterious number of the seventh "Taiyilu", they found a bronze mechanism in a hidden place.
There was a thin layer of rock on the outside of the mechanism made of bronze. After Bai Lishu pointed out the location, Ye Qiusheng went up with a knife and knocked down a full square meter of rock.
After the black rock on the outside fell off, the bronze "folded nine products" inside was exposed.
"Zhe Jiuji" was originally a sophisticated and sophisticated organ law of the secular court, but its origin can be traced back to the Wanxian Era. Bending has the meaning of "broken, damaged, twisted", but also implies the metaphor of "premature death". Nine, the largest number, evolves endlessly. The so-called "Folding Jiu Ji" originated from Wan Xian Ji's "Nine Ji" technique, which is a kind of organ technique that gathers the essence of the world's art. However, with the annihilation of Wan Xian Ji, the rest becomes the residual number. It was reduced to a mundane royal institution, so a "zhe" was added before the "jiuji", which implied "heaven's work is ruined, and personnel are difficult to complete".
But right now, this kind of organ technique, which was only used in the secular dynasty, was used by the young Taishangzong elder to hide the "ladder".
The whole fold-nine product is prismatic and consists of nine parts. Each part has a tenon-and-mortise lock block with a number of ninety-nine and eighty-one, engraved with Taiyi Xuanfu.
To solve the "folding nine products", you must combine the theories of many metaphysical classics, which is arithmetic, and reset the disordered lock blocks, but there is an order requirement for the reset of the product locks. Once the order is wrong, the position is considered correct. , Will still trigger the mechanism, then the "ladder" hidden behind the "folding of nine products" will be buried forever, so the **** must continue to lock up all of them in one breath.
Ye Qiusheng claimed that he was not 100% sure about cracking this "folding nine products", so he was on guard and Bailishu cracked it.
He didn’t turn around to look at Bailishu’s movements. From the position of the voice, Ye Qiusheng secretly judged Bailishu’s cracking progress in his heart--the more you listened, the more frightened you were. From Bailishu to Bingzhou Qing After the Ming Tower changed, he still made Qingyu Guangzhou land in Yanmen County as usual, and he knew that Bailishu was absolutely accomplished in this respect.
But judging from the speed of Bailishu's cracking, his original estimate is still low.
Crack.
The last piece of bronze lock was closed in place, Bai Lishu stepped back to the left and stood beside Ye Qiusheng.
At the next moment, the underground caves that were originally just hovering by the wind became very noisy, and the mysterious iron chain that was still running across the air began to twist, some grew and some sank, originally just overlapping from top to bottom. The chains like a giant net are completely intertwined at this moment, forming a net in a flat sense.
Thousands of chains rubbed against each other, making the piercing sound peculiar to the metal twisting. After the enclosed space, the sound overlapped and fainted repeatedly, as if countless people chanted the ancient times that mortals didn’t understand in sharp voices. Scripture.
The island sunk in the black water was pulled by the chain, slowly, little by little, leaving the water surface.
It turns out that what was hidden is not the real chain!
The so-called "Ladder to the Sky" turned out to be such a thing-thousands of intertwined chains are connected in the air, forming a giant net that people can walk through.
The vibration lasted for a long time, and finally after the island was lifted to a place where it could not be higher, the mysterious iron chains did not change anymore, one by one stretched straight.
Ye Qiu grew a long sigh of relief, and took a step forward. The stone railings of the plank road in front of them were crushed by the sinking mysterious iron chains. The closest to them were two chains that crossed and separated.
Bai Lishu lifted the long sword he had put away, and said softly. He was standing just two steps behind Ye Qiusheng, in the faint light, he tilted his head and glanced at the unraveling "Zhen Jiuji".
The secular institutions are used here, and the bronze is in the fire, silent and heavy.
Ye Qiusheng didn't know what he was thinking. He looked at the isolated island deeply, and for a moment he laughed again, as always frivolously: "How do I think this thing looks more like a net of heaven than a ladder?"
"Let's go."
Bai Lishu did not comment on the net of heaven and earth that he said. He carried the long sword in its sheath and fluttered out, landing on the chain on the left in front of him.
Ye Qiusheng talked and laughed, but his actions were not slow. Bailishu stepped on the iron lock with his front foot, and his back foot followed.
Whether it is Ye Qiusheng who is joking or Bailishu who is still looking, I can feel it. After the "folding of nine products" is untied, the flow of air suddenly accelerates, and this kind of difficulty is faintly conceived in the air. The dangerous breath of words.
——It's always the things on top of your head that are about to wake up, right? That's really not a good thing.
With such thoughts in mind, Ye Qiusheng stepped forward quickly on the iron lock. With the experiment at the end of the plank road, the two of them did not dare to use infuriating energy on the mysterious iron lock to speed up.
However, when they were halfway through their journey, Ye Qiusheng suddenly felt chills.
"Be careful!"
He stopped abruptly, and a cold red glow appeared on the teeth of the ancient blade shark in his hand. After traveling around the land of the Twelve Dynasties for many years, tracing the ancient secrets, Ye Qiusheng's feelings have always been sensitive, especially for the sense of killing intent. Only then did he really feel a hint of secret killing intent.
Where...
Ye Qiusheng stood on the chain, not moving like loose, he lifted the knife and slowly looked around.
As soon as he said his words, Bailishu stopped, and his white robe was blown by the wind, flying like white cranes passing by. He did not ask Ye Qiusheng the reason, and stood still on the dark iron rope, the long sword in his hand pointed downward slightly.
However, there is nothing around, the mysterious iron chain under my feet is as solid as a rock, and my ears are like the sound of wind coming from the ground, the sound of wind mixed with the sound of broken water.
Ye Qiusheng casts his gaze to the top of his head. Could it be those misty birds of prey on top that look like death? The movement of the iron net connection is so loud that the dormant bones are awakened?
When Ye Qiusheng cast his gaze on the darkness above, a black shadow lay like a gecko under the chain in front of them. It was hidden in the blind spot of vision under the thick chain, splashing water. The sound engulfed the sound it made while crawling.
The wind blew by, and the black shadow paused for a while, then crawled silently again, but the target was replaced by the Bailishu on the other side.
The darkness on the top was as solid as solid, but there was no sign of the misty bird awakening. Ye Qiusheng frowned and looked at Bailishu, and asked his opinion with his eyes-whether to move on or take a closer look. Fan?
I didn’t feel it just now, but after feeling that trace of murderous aura, Ye Qiusheng began to feel that his surroundings had become very weird, as if... countless pairs of eyes were hidden in the dark, staring silently at their every move. , Waiting for them to join the trap.
Bai Lishu didn't speak, he took out the "Golden Crow" longbow again from the ring, and draped the long arrow with bright oil on the string. He did not shoot an arrow toward the darkness above his head again, but lowered the arrow and aimed it at the isolated island ahead.
The long arrow broke through the air and flew diagonally downward.
The fire ignited, illuminating the mottled shadows under the chains.
Ye Qiusheng's pupils suddenly dilated--
A two-foot-long black shadow sprang out from the darkness, volleying towards the Bailishu where the arrow had been fired!
