Chapter 1574 The Trouble Caused by Red Lotus
In the high-spire tower and the heavily guarded tower area, Inaniga came to a stable on the periphery and secretly observed the situation under the tower.
"There are guards guarding the bottom of the tower. This should be where the leader of the vanguard army is. Who are these guys? Let me find out." Inaniga was about to sneak under the tower when she suddenly stopped She stopped walking and thought: "No, this is a trap." Thinking of this, she slowly retreated into the darkness: "I killed several of them. People, these people are not unsuspecting, this is probably a trap set by them."
She observed for a while next to the stable, and thought to herself: "I still don't want to use force to check them. , just hide and observe. They have done such a big thing, no one will check their background." Inaniga looked at the tower and smiled, then turned and left.
……
A golden scorpion crawled across the sand between the tents. The rising sun had already climbed into the sky, and the tired man only got up from the tent after midnight. Alice didn't have her own tent, so she originally slept with the female gangster Qiu Ya, but Qiu Ya snored too loudly at night and she couldn't bear it, so she agreed to Ruola's invitation and the two slept together. account.
When we woke up this day, everyone got dressed, washed and ate, finished what they had to do, and prepared to enter the second level of challenge.
According to Alice, the second floor should be a place similar to a maze. Since it is a maze, the most fearful thing is being trapped in it and unable to get out, and it is a dilemma. We discussed this and, in addition to marking the route, we also connected all the ropes to make a long rope to prevent them from getting lost. Everyone also understands that the maze on the second floor may not be that simple. No one knows what dangers there are, so we can only take one step at a time.
The candidates to enter the second level are still Cesanil, Langya, Alice, Abzi, Little G and Alligator, but Tyson also brought some people in. Since the general danger on the first level has been eliminated, he wanted to study it carefully.
The six of them walked along the stairs and entered the tomb passage leading to the second floor. When they were only halfway there, Langya smelled something with his keen sense of smell and said, "I seem to smell wet soil and plants. The taste.”
Little G smiled and said: "How can there be plants here? Did you smell it wrong?"
Langya didn't explain, just followed everyone forward, and soon came to the entrance of the second floor.
"This is..."
Abzi and his puppet, who were walking at the front, held a spar lamp to illuminate the scene in front of them, and saw only the second floor which was full of vitality and greenery. Abundant, as Langya said, the ground, high walls, and the top of the head are all covered with green plants. No one expected that the second floor would be like this. Compared to the cold and gloomy first floor, this place was more like a greenhouse for cultivating precious plants, which was unbelievable.
“Why are there green leaves here?” Little G asked in surprise. This is also everyone's question. Without sunlight and buried deep underground for thousands of years, even if there are any plants left, they should be dead.
Everyone stood at the top of the stairs and did not enter easily. Except for the very strange green leaves, just like Alice said, this place was a maze. Shoot the fireball and shine forward. There are high green walls on both sides. Not far ahead, there is a fork in the road.
Alice looked at the leafy plants carefully and said: "Have you noticed that the green leaves of these plants look a little awkward, as if...how to say..."
"Like fake ” Cesaniel said.
“Yes, yes, the green is too fake to be true.”
Abzi slashed the leaves a few times with his sword, and found that the leaves were quite deep. After all the leaves on the upper layer were cleared away, there turned out to be a dense mass of white bones and skeletons underneath. When he cut open the green leaves on the ground and elsewhere, it was the same. It turns out that the high walls of this maze are entirely made of human skulls.
Everyone was startled, Cesanil frowned and couldn't help cursing: "This Glonas is really not a good guy, he actually built a maze with human bones!"
"Look! "Alice pointed to the green wall plant that had been split. She saw that while they were saying these words, the green leaves and green vines that had been cut down had grown back a lot. Everyone looked carefully and could actually see the plant with the naked eye. of slowly growing. The skeleton is filled with something like soil, from which the roots of plants grow.
Everyone just feels that the tomb of the Princess of Glonas has a weird and evil atmosphere everywhere, which makes people extremely uncomfortable and uneasy.
The alligator said: "Are we still going in? I don't think this is a good place. If you don't get the treasure, you risk your life."
"Are you scared? Don’t you say you are very brave?” Little G and the alligator have been traveling together for many days, and they have become quite familiar with each other.
"Who said I was scared?" The alligator's cowering expression was written on his face, but he still showed off his strong words: "I was...I was injured yesterday, and I was afraid that something would happen soon and I wouldn't be able to cope with it. Besides, , Mr. Schaller is still on the first floor. It is not that there is no danger at all. You Aren't you worried?"
Little G was also worried. He rolled his eyes, borrowed the ladder and went down, smiling: "When you say that...hehe, I'm really worried, and I'm injured. It's heavier than you, I'm afraid I can't go any further." He glanced at the four Langya people.
Abuz said: "If you are afraid, just go up. It may be really dangerous if you go deeper." He turned to Alice and the other three and said: "Who else is injured, it's okay. Go up."
Alice saw him looking at her and said unhappily: "What are you looking at me for? I must go to the bottom of the tomb." Lang Ya also said: "I want to go down too. This is what I came here for.”
Cesanil hesitated for a moment, thought for a moment, and suddenly smiled and said: "If there are only three of you, I think this tomb may not be explored. I will go with you too."
A few We have discussed it personally, of course the alligator and little G It was time to run away. Langya and the others took care of Alice, who was a girl, and asked her to hold one end of the rope and stand at the entrance. Abzi's puppet held the other end and walked into the maze. But the situation here made it impossible to stay. The only way to identify the way is by relying on this rope.
......
The farther north the desert went, the less harsh the climate became. Gale spent thousands of gold coins to buy a strong griffin, and carried him and Hefemi to their own country. Rush to the old nest. Because the situation is much better than in the central and southern parts, you can always see some villages and small towns in the desert, and from time to time there are patches of woods and groups of cattle and sheep beasts. There is no need to worry about the food of the griffons.
Haifeng had calculated the time before and was just in time to catch up with his sister Qin's wedding. Now he has flown deeper into the desert and is only a few dozen minutes away from his own Gale Cave. Qin's wedding is tomorrow. His hanging heart could finally let go.
Hefemi grabbed Hayate's clothes behind him and said, "You care about your sister's wedding very much." a relative, this wedding is very important to me and her. "
Hefemi said with envy: "I wonder if I have brothers and sisters as good as you."
Bailfeng couldn't bear to make her sad, so he never mentioned it to her on the way. Due to her life experience and identity, it was difficult to answer the question, so she had to remain silent. After flying for a while, I could finally see the Gale Cave. Gale stood up happily and flew up to the gryphon before it landed.
"Hey, wait for me." Hefemi quickly climbed up and hugged the griffin's neck, guiding it to land.
Gale dusted off the dust on his body and walked towards the Gale Cave happily, but before he entered the valley sheltered from the wind, the happy look on his face slowly changed.
Hefemi caught up from behind and saw that Gale's steps had slowed down and asked strangely: "What's wrong?"
"Something's wrong." Gale looked at the low hills on both sides and in the middle The empty valley, where his men usually liked to drink and have fun, sing and dance at the top of the valley entrance, was like a party every day, but today it was deserted and there was no sound at all. Gale had a bad premonition in his heart and hurriedly ran into Gale Cave. At first glance, there was no one in the Gale Cave!
"Qin! Qin! Is there anyone there? Qin!" Gale shouted in the valley, and there were endless echoes, but no one responded to his call.
Hefemi shouted a few more times, and seeing that Hayate was very anxious, he stepped forward and said, "Will they leave? Didn't you tell me about you having more than one stronghold in the desert on the way? ”
Hayate shook his head: "No, Qin's wedding has been agreed to be held here, and she will not leave without my consent. The stage set up for the wedding is still here, and they will not leave suddenly. It must be Something happened, it must be!”
“But it doesn’t look like it’s been done here. It looks like someone has attacked me.”
Everything in the valley is still well arranged, including neatly arranged wine barrels, bags, and various things set up for the wedding, including brand new wine glasses and tableware. Encapsulated in large wooden boxes, there is no trace of mess at all.
Hayfeng saw a piece of paper under the feet of the bride and groom's puppets on the stage. He pulled it out and read: "Your sister, groom, and men are in my hands. I hope they are safe." If nothing happens, bring the Blood-Weeping Red Lotus to the east eight kilometers away. If you don't come by the time of your sister Qin's wedding, you will be responsible for the consequences."
"Blood-weeping red lotus!" Hayate immediately thought of meeting him in the capital of Saint Bikoya. The mysterious man: "Could it be him?"
He has always carried the Weeping Blood Lotus with him and placed it in a different space. This thing is closely related to the City of Gale and is very important to him, but no matter how important it is, can it be more important than his sister?
"What's written on the paper?" Hefemi walked around to Hayate's side and looked at it, then asked: "Do you have the Blood-Weeping Red Lotus?"
"Yes. "
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go and save your sister."
"Hmm." Swift wind ran out of the valley and jumped on the back of the gryphon. Hephime flew eastward.
