[Baiyutang] Wind-dried clothes

Seven days later, although their injuries were not fully healed, they were able to move without hindrance.Going up the mountain again is in the evening.The snow in the mountains has melted and exposed patches of land, like moss.Stepping on the ground, the mud is quite slippery.Lu and Bai asked their neighbor Uncle for advice, and Uncle pointed them out to the hunters in their village and borrowed two pairs of boots with iron inverted hook soles. The hook brought up layers of mud, making the feet heavier and heavier.

It was easy to climb up, and lay in ambush under the abyss. Lu Caishu twisted his hands, used his nails to pick up the mud on the soles of his shoes, and rubbed and rubbed on the dead branches, but he still felt uncomfortable.

The two listened quietly for a while, but found that the surrounding wall was very quiet, and they couldn't even hear the footsteps of the soldiers outside the gate. Voice.

Lu Bai and Lu Bai looked at each other, Bai Yutang thought in a low voice: "Could it be that the Yuan Pavilion has already been empty?"

Lu Caichun shook his head and said, "There hasn't been any movement on the mountain these days, and no one has come down the mountain. Maybe those soldiers are still hiding in the pavilion. We'd better be careful."

The two of them waited until the top of the branches on the moon, and then quietly pushed aside the branches blocking their eyes, and probed to look.

There was really no one in front of the door.Looking up at the Chongxiao Tower, the lanterns under the eaves were not lit, and the lanterns shot by arrows were still crooked, and no one came to take care of them.

"Is it possible to play an empty city plan? Waiting for us to go in and throw ourselves into the trap?" Lu Caichun hesitated.

Bai Yutang circled his thumb and index finger, put them in his mouth, and blew. The sharp and clear whistle pierced the night sky, causing the birds to buzz.

The two held their weapons in their hands and turned around to dodge, but they found that after the whistle sounded, the abyss hall was still as quiet as a graveyard, and there was no movement inside.

Lu Caichun frowned and said, "I'm afraid people really left. Maybe even the things in the skyscraper were taken away."

Bai Yutang waved his head: "People may have gone clean, but the Skyscraper Tower has not been touched. Think about it, when we came down from the Skyscraper Tower last time, none of the soldiers outside came up. If the Skyscraper Tower It’s true that people in the abyss can enter, as long as one person leads the way, and we are blocked in it, it is difficult for us to fly. But in the end, no one came up.”

Lu Caichun nodded and said: "Fifth Brother's words are reasonable. But such a building is built, and no one can enter it. What kind of treasure is hidden?"

"Don't guess, let's go up first." Bai Yutang opened the wild branches of the Yanling Saber, jumped up, turned around and pulled Lu Caishi.

All the way to the courtyard unimpeded fruit.Going back, you can still see the charred houses, the window screens and lantern papers are torn, and the drafts pass through the hall, making a rustling sound.

Looking back and forth, there was really no one left.When I entered the house again, I saw that it was cleaned up, not even a tile was left.Bai Yutang rubbed his chin, pondered: "It seems that they are not in a hurry, and I don't know why, there are hundreds of people, if they can't tell where they are, they will stop."

Lu Caichun said: "Perhaps the people behind the scenes have some plans to send these people to do things."

Bai Yutang said: "Forget it, let's go to the Sky Tower first."

The two stood in front of the skyscraper again, and Lu Caishu lit another torch, opening up a circle of light.The door of the Sky Tower is open, and at a glance, it is still dark and bottomless.

Walking in, there is still an iron screen standing silently.After walking for many times, they were already familiar with the road, got into the formation, and encountered several corpses, all of which were forced to be killed by Lu Caichun when he brought Bai Yutang out last time.

Fortunately, it was cold winter, and the corpse hadn't rotted and smelled yet, but it was still very creepy to see a pool of blood here and there.

Walking up to the second floor until the third floor, both of them seemed to be strolling in the garden.

When he went up to the third floor, the barbed net on the top of his head did not fall. He thought that this trap would only be triggered if the door of life and death was touched from behind.

I saw the gate of life and death again.The six doors stood silently in the middle of the building, forming a circle for Mo Yue five people to move around. A pillar was erected in the middle. Lu Caichun put the fire folds up to take a look, and all he saw were sharp arrows flowing with iron-blue light. .Last time, it was one of them, which almost caused Bai Yutang to lose an arm.

On the gray brick floor on the third floor, the blood spilled by the two can still be seen.The brown spots are everywhere, which is shocking, which makes the building more stern and murderous.

Lu Caichun said: "Fifth brother, you said that this door of life and death, we didn't break the mechanism last time, and when we leave this time, there won't be any accidents?"

Bai Yutang said: "Probably not. Think about it, this building is still for people to walk through. If someone touches the mechanism once, people who come later will not be able to pass through. Obviously it is not in line with the original intention of the builder."

Lu Caichun said: "Let me believe you." She recited the gossip formula, chose a dead door, and wanted to walk in.Bai Yutang grabbed her from behind: "Wait a minute, let me go first." As he said that, he stepped into the door of death with one foot.

Lu Caichun was so panicked that she wanted to drag him back, but seeing no movement inside the door, she let out a long breath and followed him in.

After leaving this gate of death, what you see is another circle of gates of life and death.

Lu Caichun asked: "This time - is it time to go to the real door?"

Bai Yutang also agreed: "The person who built the building must be thinking that since the first round of death gate is the life gate, he might still feel the same way in this round. Who would have thought that he would have switched over in this round."

After speaking these words, both of them stood in place and did not step forward.Lu Caichun looked at the door for a while, then turned to look at Bai Yutang, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Fifth Brother, I'm still afraid..."

Bai Yutang lowered his head again and pondered for a while.He also couldn't tell what the builder was thinking.Once this door goes wrong, it is a matter of death, the two of them stood silently for a long time, hesitated for a moment, still looking at the door, thinking of other ways in their minds, so as to try the mechanism.

The two were really frightened by the danger of coming here for the first time.

Lu Caichun said: "Fifth brother, I have an idea. Think about it, how did this mechanism trigger?"

Bai Yutang said: "Last time, I was the one who stepped into that door, and a thousand-jin gate fell from above. The moment I stepped in that door, I just felt the gray bricks under my feet lift up, as if it was about to sink in."

Lu Caichun said: "That's right! Actually, we don't need to care whether the door is alive or dead, as long as the gray bricks inside the door are covered with heavy objects and don't sink down, and the jack gate above it doesn't fall, then it is a real door of life. "

When Bai Yutang heard this, he grabbed the Yanling saber in its sheath, put the sheath in his left hand, gathered all his energy, and threw it towards the gate of death.

The moment the scabbard landed on the ground, both of them saw the gray brick in the door shrinking. With a loud noise, the jack gate fell, and when it hit the ground, dust and dust splashed all over the place.The scabbard was locked in the door, fearing that it would never see the light of day again.

Lu Caichun pointed to the Shengmen on one side: "To be on the safe side, let's try that Shengmen."

Bai Yutang was about to search for something on his body, looking forward to throwing it at him, but he heard a creak from the door of death, and the heavy gate slowly rose again, revealing the situation inside.Both of them couldn't help looking in, but they saw that the scabbard was gone, only flat gray bricks.

Suddenly, the sound of arrows sounded downstairs, puffing densely like locusts flapping their wings.

Lu Caichun clapped his hands and said, "In this gate of death, the gray bricks are empty. As soon as the jacked gate hits the ground, the gray bricks will turn up. People who fall into the gate of death have nowhere to stabilize their bodies. They can only be held by the gray bricks." The brick was lifted down and fell to the second floor, and the bow and arrow were touched again, at this time, even the gods could not escape."

Bai Yutang also praised: "These institutions are interlocking, no wonder there is no one guarding this building."

After trying the life gate and making sure there was nothing unusual, Lu and Bai went in with confidence and reached the stairs on the fourth floor.

Looking at the stairs, Lu Caichun couldn't help muttering: "What kind of mechanism is placed on the fourth floor, it's really disturbing."

Bai Yutang looked straight ahead and said, "I'm going ahead, you follow."

Seeing that he had stepped on the stairs with one foot, Lu Caichun had no choice but to follow quickly.

There was no difference on the stairs. When they reached the fourth floor, the first thing they saw was the walls made of cast iron, which were extremely smooth, reflecting the fire fold in Lu Caishu's hand, and flowing bright yellow light.These four walls are extremely high, leading to the roof.The fourth and fifth floors are actually only the first floor.And there was an unknown thing hanging on the roof of the building, hanging quietly in this windless building.

As soon as his feet stepped on the ground on the fourth floor, there was a sudden sound of slamming near his feet.Lu and Bai hurriedly looked to the side, and saw the stairs shrinking one by one very quickly.

"Not good!" Bai Yutang hurriedly ran a few steps towards the stairs, but the gray bricks surged up one by one, quickly sealing the downward stairs.When Lu Caichun looked back, he saw that the ground had been closed so that there was not a single crack left, only a smooth gray brick floor.

They have been trapped in this prison of brick and cold iron.

"What should I do?" Lu Caichun stomped on the place where the stairs used to be, but the ground didn't move at all.

Suddenly imprisoned in the building, the two of them couldn't help but sweat on their backs, feeling that they couldn't even breathe smoothly.

Bai Yutang looked up at the objects hanging from the roof, and said, "I remember that when we came up, it seemed that we encountered a mechanism. If this building was not built, or people who enter the building cannot get out, then I'm afraid There's only one way to get out of here."

Lu Caichun hurriedly asked, "What method?"

Bai Yutang raised the knife in his hand, pointing the tip of the knife at the thing hanging from the roof: "Just take this thing down."

But this is easier said than done.

Lu Caichun stepped forward, touched the smooth iron wall, saw that there was no place to stay, and showed a worried look on his face: "Fifth Brother, I'm afraid you guessed wrong, this building is not for ordinary people to go up. I’m afraid that every organ in the building needs some serious effort, or someone who has prepared iron claws in advance, just to climb the wall, so as to get up and get the things hanging from the roof of the building.”

Bai Yutang touched and tapped around the iron wall, and found that the iron wall is indeed very solid, there is not even any mechanism inside, because this wall is the natural moat that separates everything on the roof.

Suddenly, there was a click on the side of the leg, Bai Yutang realized that he seemed to have kicked something, and hurriedly called to Lu Caichun: "Sixth sister, there are some foreign objects here, you can shine a light on them."

Lu Caichun hurriedly came forward with a fire bag, looked at the photo, screamed, and jumped away.

There was a pile of bones lying under the iron wall.Because Bai Yutang kicked the skeleton, the skull on the empty corpse rolled down, making a loud knocking sound on the iron wall.

"Who is the person who died here?" Lu Caichun squatted down, trying to remove the ragged clothes from the corpse.This corpse had probably been lying here for a long time, and there was only a faint stench, and pieces of meat from the bones had fallen off and turned into dust.The viscera in the abdominal cavity had dried up, hanging in the cavity made up of the ribs.

Feeling uneasy from the bottom of his heart, Lu Caichun raised his head to look at Bai Yutang, and said in a trembling voice, "It's not that no one has ever entered this building. People have died here. I'm afraid this is a death row that you can't get out of." "

"Let's not talk about anything else, just put out the fire." Bai Yutang pulled Lu Caishu up and said, "This may allow us to live a little longer."

It was only then that Lu Caichun remembered that the place where they were trapped now had no air holes for ventilation. If they still started a fire inside, they would probably suffocate to death soon.She quickly blew out the torch in her hand.

As soon as the fire in his hand was extinguished, he looked up and saw a few pieces of glass tiles inlaid on the roof of the building. The moonlight penetrated through the tiles, and a few beams of bright light shone on the four walls, making the iron wall even colder.

Lu Caichun's voice trembled: "Are we really going to be buried here this time?"

Bai Yutang knocked on the wall, and said in a deep voice, "Anyway, I still have to try the roof to see if it is the last mechanism to break through the skyscraper."

Listening to what he said, Lu Caichun's heart gradually calmed down, and countless thoughts rolled through her mind for a moment, all of them were trying to climb up the iron wall.

Bai Yutang asked her: "Sixth sister, your lightness kung fu is very good, I wonder how high you can jump in this building?"

Lu Caichun knew that he was going to rush up, so he stretched his muscles and bones, rushed forward, kicked off the iron wall, flew up, stretched his arms upwards, but he was still a foot away from the roof.

She fell down, panting lightly: "I'm afraid I can only jump there."

Bai Yutang lowered his head and pondered, calculating the distance in his heart.In the end, he knocked the Yanling saber in his hand against the wall, and said: "My saber has no other advantages, but the back of the saber is thick, it is not easy to break, and the tip of the saber is sharp, cutting into this wall should not be a serious problem."

Lu Caichun said: "Fifth brother means to put this knife in a high place first, and I will use the power of this knife to jump up, maybe I can catch the thing on the roof."

Bai Yutang shook his head, and added: "I'm afraid you can't jump up with the knife. You have to use my strength to go up."

After hearing this, Lu Caichun worried that his injury would not be enough to hold her up, bit her lip, but still nodded in agreement with Bai Yutang's decision.

Bai Yutang held the saber in his hand, spread his five fingers apart, grasped the handle of the saber, took a deep breath, jumped high with his strength, raised his left hand, and inserted the saber in his hand into the iron wall.The solid gold collided, the flames splashed, and the piercing sound disturbed people's teeth.

Bai Yutang fell down, looking at the knife in the wall.Although the blade was slanted, half of it had been inserted, and it was already firm.Lu Caichun caught up and asked, "Fifth Brother, is everything alright?"

Bai Yutang shook his head, and told her, "After that, you can use my shoulders to jump up."

Lu Caichun nodded, Bai Yutang jumped up again, stretched out his left arm, grasped the handle of the knife with his hand, swung his body upwards, and touched the handle of the knife with his toes.After shaking twice, Bai Yutang stood still, bent slightly, stretched out his left hand, and signaled Lu Caishu to jump up quickly.

Lu Caichun said: "Fifth brother, you don't have to pull me, be careful that the knife under your feet can't bear the weight."

When Bai Yutang heard this, he didn't hold back, but said: "After you come up, rest for a while, and I'll push you up again."

Lu Caichun was worried and dared not speak to him, she just gritted her teeth, rushed forward, kicked off the wall, flipped over with a kite, and landed on Bai Yutang's shoulder.Another person came up, the knife under his feet bent down, almost did not shake the two of them, Bai Yutang hurriedly stood up.

Bai Yutang supported the wall with his hands, and his body sank slowly. Lu Caichun knew that he had to exert more strength, so he also focused on getting ready.

Pushing his feet against Lu Caichun on his shoulders, he jumped up a few feet.At the highest point, Lu Caichun took advantage of his strength to fly up, stretched out his arms as hard as he could, and with a "snap", he landed on the hanging thing on the roof.As soon as she retracted her hand, regardless of whether the wound on her palm would open or not, she firmly grasped the iron chain that hung the object.

Suddenly, she heard a ding from below, like the sound of something cast iron cracking.

Looking down, under the moonlight, Bai Yutang fell downwards, like a crane being shot down with its wings spread.

And the Yanling Saber stuck in the wall was only half broken, reflecting the moonlight faintly, it was startlingly bright.
