Chapter 589 Evolution
"Uh, why, do you know that monk?" Seeing the other party's sudden change of attitude, a vigilant look appeared on Hu Zuotian's face, he took a step back unconsciously, and asked aloud.
Seeing the opponent's actions in his eyes, Gu Yueran became more certain of his guess, the corners of his mouth curved imperceptibly, and then nodded with some indignation: "That's right, that monk broke the rules and precepts and harmed good women everywhere. My elder sister also died because of this, and this time it was because I heard that scumbag came here that I came here alone, unexpectedly, I strayed into this place!"
Harming women from good families?Hu Zuotian and Chu Wei looked at each other, and then thought that indeed, every time the monk appeared on the stage, there always seemed to be different women by his side. From this point of view, this statement is true.
Seeing that the expressions of the two were a little loose, Gu Yueran chuckled, knowing that the other party had already believed her words, but it was far from letting the other party lead her to find Ye Xiaosan. After all, a useless burden would not Someone wants to take it with her, and at this moment, she still needs to add a little bit of leverage.
Thinking like this, Gu Yueran clenched his fist pretending to be regretful, and murmured in a low voice: "Damn it, I thought I could finally take revenge after mastering that kung fu, but I didn't even find anyone! I'm really useless! "
Sure enough, upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across Hu Zuotian's face, and he hurriedly asked: "Martial arts? Do you have the martial arts that can restrain that monk?"
Like a frightened rabbit, Gu Yueran hurriedly took two steps back, looked at the two of them vigilantly, and after a while, said reluctantly: "That's right, my sister has a very close relationship with that monk, and I know each other very well. It's a pity that I was harmed by it. In order to get revenge, I worked tirelessly and finally learned it. Although that scumbag's Bodhi determination is very powerful, my inner strength can easily destroy the opponent's Protecting the Buddha's light."
Seeing that the girl's words were convincing, Hu Zuotian couldn't help but believe a little bit, but he still had doubts in his heart. In order to be sure, he quietly released a little internal energy, wanting to check the girl's skill and see if she was lying.
This level of probing, with Gu Yueran's strength, is naturally easy to discover, but the girl did not stop her, suppressing her own internal force on the one hand, and silently guiding the other party's internal force on the other hand.
Under the young girl's control, Hu Zuotian really failed to see the depth of her martial arts, but only faintly felt an obscure and strange internal force. So far, he has no doubts about what the young girl said.
"What should we do? Shall we take her to find a way back?" Chu Wei looked at Gu Yueran's appearance, with deep desire in his eyes, and hurriedly asked Hu Zuotian next to him in a low voice.
The latter glanced at him contemptuously, naturally knowing the other party's dirty plan, but when he rolled his eyes, he felt that this proposal was very feasible. The monk used some method from somewhere, and his martial arts improved by leaps and bounds every time he met. At this time, it is already difficult for me to be the opponent of the other party, not to mention that the guy has a more powerful woman beside him now, if the girl's words are true, it can indeed be a help.
Thinking of this, Hu Zuotian nodded, and said to the girl: "You are lucky to meet us. It just so happens that we only met that monk not long ago. Come with us."
"It's done!" Gu Yueran quietly clenched her fists. She didn't expect these two little guys to be so easy to deceive. What's rare is that they also brought unexpected information. As long as I follow them, I can find Ye Xiaosan , and when necessary, potential competitors can be easily eliminated, killing two birds with one stone.
Immediately, the girl smiled and nodded, and followed the two of them like a little bird, and the two of them were also eager to get rid of Ye Xiaosan, and after making up their minds, they returned the same way. Heading towards the place where I met Ye Xiaosan before, although I don’t know why, thick fog gradually rose in the Cangzhen Palace, but relying on the memory of the time when I came, I was still able to find the way. In this way, a group of three walked together, Once again plunged into the strange fog.
--------split line--------
"Ah!" Ye Xiaosan, who was observing whether there was an exit, sneezed loudly. Seeing Hari looking over curiously, he waved his hands quickly and said with a narcissistic smile: "It's nothing, I guess it is." Which beauty thinks of me again, there is no way, being handsome is troublesome."
Hearing this, Hari rolled his eyes back, and then he stopped staring at him, but focused on looking around, while observing, while listening quietly: "It's troublesome, there is no air flow around here, look for it." There is no way to leave, but yes, in this kind of chaos, it would be strange to have air."
"According to what we do now, there is not much time. As far as I know, the opening time of the Tibetan Zhen Palace is only a few hours in total. It is already halfway through now. If I continue to delay, even if I can survive that I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of the hellish enlightenment ceremony." Ye Xiaosan spread his arms and wanted to sit on the ground helplessly, but in the middle of the movement, he suddenly remembered that there was no ground around him, so he stood up straight in embarrassment body, as if nothing happened.
Fortunately, at this time, Hari was not in the mood to look at his foolishness, but frowned and muttered: "Yeah, Yakan seems to have encountered a lot of trouble, and sure enough, for us now, time and space The cracks are still too dangerous, full of unpredictable variables."
After the words fell, the two of them fell into a brief silence. Ye Xiaosan was bored and could only look at the surrounding scenery casually, but it was said to be a scenery, but in fact it was dark everywhere, and he couldn't see anything. In the mist, suddenly, something caught his attention.
"Huh? What do you think that is?" Ye Xiaosan yelled in surprise, and suddenly pointed to a space not far away. Hearing the sound, Hari woke up startled, and followed his finger to look over, waiting to see clearly the things in the mist After that, his eyes widened in surprise.
I saw, in the darkness, a flickering light flickering, because it was too small, the two of them didn't notice it at all before, but now that they looked carefully, they could find that the light was undoubtedly like a flickering lamp, Could it be that there is a way out ahead?
For a moment, the two of them almost thought of one place and looked at each other. In the end, it was Hari who spoke first: "No matter what, let's go and have a look first."
Ye Xiaosan nodded, agreeing with this decision very much, after all, no matter what kind of danger you encounter, it is much wiser than standing still and waiting to die.
As a result, the two of them, one in front of the other, quickly approached the place where the lights flickered. Although there was no concept of direction, up, down, left, and right, and there was no ground on which to stand, both of them were in the state of spirit bodies, and when they moved, they could not move. It was a few minutes faster, and in a short while, I came to the place where the lights flickered.
When they arrived here, the two discovered that the light emitting light was not the lamp they had imagined, but a strange bronze mirror. The light was released from the bronze mirror.
"This mirror. It seems that I have heard something similar recently?" Ye Xiaosan tilted his head and looked at the bronze mirror in front of him. He didn't understand why this thing was emitting light. He was observing and thinking at the same time. , I seem to have heard topics like weird mirrors from someone recently.
On the other hand, Hari's memory was better. She saw the girl put a finger on her lips, thought for a moment, and suddenly her eyes lit up: "Yes, I seem to have heard Ye Ling talk about encountering a mirror before."
"Damn!" Hearing this, Ye Xiaosan, who was still staring at the mirror, jumped, and quickly moved away. At this moment, he also remembered, didn't Hei Yue just run out of this thing? ?If you look at it this way, you won't come up with a similar ghost thing, right?
"It scares you. After all, you are also half of the Penglai family. How could you be afraid of this thing? You see, Ye Ling saw this mirror and there was nothing wrong with it?" As he spoke, Hali picked up the mirror , the speed was so fast that Ye Xiaosan didn't even have time to stop it, so he could only watch dumbfoundedly as the girl picked it up and played with it in her hands.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the moment the girl picked it up, there seemed to be a slight vibration in the whole space.
"Idiot, don't you have no power now? You are still seeking death like this. I can't stand it anymore!" Ye Xiaosan muttered angrily and quickly reached for the mirror, hoping to take advantage of the fact that nothing had changed. before putting it back.
However, Hali pouted and rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction: "What are you afraid of? Although I am completely incapable now, how can the dignified Penglai clan be timid!"
A simple translation of this sentence is, "The dignified Penglai clan doesn't even have the courage to die, isn't it embarrassing?"
Ye Xiaosan twitched the corners of his mouth, speechless to the extreme, and was about to open his mouth to refute, when suddenly something strange happened, and the whole space vibrated with his face covered, and in the darkness, one after another, sounds like a stomach rumbling sounded, shocking eardrums of two people.
"You, you see what's going on! Put it back quickly!" Ye Xiaosan wanted to cry but had no tears, why did such a brat stand on the ground, and quickly pointed to the bronze mirror in the girl's hand, motioning for the other party to put it back in its original place.
At this moment, Hari's face was also blank, as if he saw something. The vibration in this space was extremely unusual. In a vague way, the girl thought of an amazing possibility. let go.
However, I didn't notice it before. Although the place where the bronze mirror is located is dark, there seems to be a stone platform for placing the mirror in the darkness. This time, Hari moved in a hurry, and subconsciously increased his strength. Immediately afterwards, he only heard "When With a crisp sound, the bronze mirror in his hand accidentally hit the stage, and with a crash, the bronze mirror shattered to the ground like glass.
Dead silence filled the air for an instant, and the two of them froze in place, staring at each other. After a moment of silence, Hari spread his hands and said without any cadence: "Unfortunately, we seem to have gotten into big trouble."
"How much trouble?" Ye Xiaosan wanted to ask, but the fact was that there was no need to ask, because as the bronze mirror shattered, the fog in the entire space gradually dissipated, and accompanied by a strange roar, Ye Xiaosan discovered in horror , the space the two people are in is not a cave at all, but a strange space full of mucus and scarlet. If I insist on saying so, this space looks like the stomach of a creature!
"Is this the trouble you're talking about?" Ye Xiaosan raised his eyebrows and asked through gritted teeth.
"It's even more troublesome than that." Hari smiled wryly, deeply regretting the impulsiveness just now: "I suddenly remembered that there is something Yakan told me before, called a spectroscopic mirror."
"Please make a long story short"
"...Well, probably, this thing is something that maintains the stability of the entire space-time gap. If it breaks, the entire space-time gap will undergo amazing changes."
As she said that, the girl spread her hands and said in a familiar manner: "For example, the gap between time and space, which was originally chaotic and hazy, will awaken consciousness due to the loss of suppression, and the entire space will continue to evolve at a speed visible to the naked eye."
"Don't you think this mirror is that spectroscopic mirror?" Ye Xiaosan swallowed, feeling a little lucky in his heart. After all, in his opinion, the two of them were still at the core of the martial arts plane before, so they should be It's not such a coincidence, just getting close to the gap between time and space, you will cause a catastrophe, right?
"What do you think?" Sighing, Hari helplessly kicked the shards of the mirror under his feet. At the same time, the roar in the space was even more astonishing. It was at this time that Ye Xiaosan was really sure, The two people were indeed in the stomach of something, and the cry was the voice of the owner of the stomach, but because the surrounding space stretched infinitely, he couldn't be sure how huge this creature was.
At this time, the girl explained the question in his mind: "This is not a creature, or it is not a creature in the traditional sense. It is just an aggregation of consciousness, or an aggregation of time and space, because the spectroscopic Disappeared, the entire space has begun to evolve, no one knows what he will evolve into, and now it is obvious that the other party has only evolved voice and superficial consciousness, and it does not pose a threat to us for the time being."
"This should be the best news I've heard so far." Ye Xiaosan replied angrily, and then nodded his eyebrows with a headache. Pain: "Then our Penglai strongman, can you tell me how long this safe period will last?"
"Hmph." Hearing Ye Xiaosan's strange ambiguity, Hari curled his lips in dissatisfaction, and then held up three fingers reluctantly.
"Three days?"
"3 minutes!"
"What are you waiting for? Find a way to run away!" After a moment of silence, Ye Xiaosan yelled and ran away like a headless fly. Are you kidding? Even a spider can chase the two of them up and down. Jump, such a big thing, who knows how strong it will be, but as soon as he took a step, Ye Xiaosan was grabbed by He Li.
Facing Ye Xiaosan's suspicious gaze, the girl pointed her finger at the top of her head: "The way out is here."
