Chapter 165 4 rows and 27 columns
Although you can’t see it, you can imagine it.
This is the most powerful ability of human beings.
Civilization and brilliant technology all come from imagination, and the bigger the imagination, the more exaggerated the things you think of.
Another point is that most of human beings' fears come from their imagination.
So a normal person will find a completely dark place, and what you think is a beautiful woman is pulling you for a walk, but you find that the person pulling you is not a beautiful woman, but a long, who knows how long, who comes out of nowhere. How would you react if your arms were touched?
A normal person might faint from fright, or yell hysterically because he has already imagined in his mind that the sight of this terrifying arm must be the thing he fears the most.
Or just turn on the light source and see what it is.
What is interesting is that there is a possibility here. The above options are actually dangerous.
Smart people must distinguish between fear and danger.
Dangerous things may not bring fear to people, and things that bring fear to people may not be dangerous.
Turning on the lights or shouting may bring danger. It is best to maintain the status quo. Because at this stage, the unknown arm was just grabbing Luo Xi and did not do anything else.
The main thing is that Luo Xi can't break free at all.
"Okay, you tell me where you want to go, and I can go." Luo Xi muttered.
No more pulling.
Luo Xi needs time to think about countermeasures.
First of all, a head-on confrontation is undoubtedly the last resort. He still has some cards in his hand, but they may not be able to cope with the current situation.
Hand-to-hand combat?
He is not an opponent, but if he is really forced to do so, he can only give it a try.
But when that time comes, it is estimated that there is a high probability that this cycle day will end early.
In addition, Luo Xi didn't know if Lin Qiqi had encountered the same situation as him. If Lin Qiqi was also dragged away by a hand, the situation would become very bad.
The strange arm strength seemed to realize that Luo Xi was no longer resisting, so it stabilized again.
Luo Xi groped along the way. He touched the wall, touched the door panel, and touched some strange things.
This strange thing seems to be a bell.
When touched, it made a sound.
In an instant, the weird hand holding Luo Xi was like a needle pricking him on fire. He immediately let go and shrank to some unknown place.
Luo Xi's heart moved, and he immediately squatted down to touch the bell.
It should be a stone platform.
More than half a person tall, the texture of the stone is very rough, like tiny pits caused by years of wind and rain erosion.
On this stone platform, I touched a bell.
After getting the bell, Luo Xi seemed to see a vague text.
“The soul-catching bell!”
[The soul-catching bell], a magic weapon card prop, the soul-catching bell is engraved with a six-character mantra. After shaking, wherever the bell sounds, evil spirits will The retreat is a high-level magic weapon, rare and rare. However, this object seems to be infected by some unknown evil spirit. The holder will be cursed. Every time it is used, the curse will increase. So, do you still dare to shake it?
It is actually a card prop, with a line of small words written below: The more you can bear, the more it can give you!
"Good stuff!" Luo Xi touched the bell in the dark and could feel the cold and metallic texture on it, as well as the complex lines.
Although this [Soul-Capturing Bell] is a double-edged sword that will bring a curse when used, Luo Xi still thinks it is a really good thing, especially in this place.
Weird things are everywhere, and you can’t see them yet. Even if you have a knife or sword that can destroy evil, you can’t attack in advance because you can’t see the enemy, and you can’t fight back after being attacked. May not be able to hit accurately.
But it would be much easier if there was a [Soul-Calling Bell].
Because this thing is a sonic attack, it has no blind spots at 360 degrees.
"Putting this kind of prop here is obviously for use. It may even be a key prop in this scene." Luo Xi's idea was still very simple.
From a scene design perspective, when you place a monster in the scene that others cannot defeat, for the sake of fairness, you must implant a prop that can restrain the monster.
Again, the day of confinement is false, and so is the scene. As long as it is a man-made scene, it must follow certain rules.
When Luo Xi touched this [Soul-Calling Bell], he was 100% sure of the existence of the Lightless Land.
The place where he is now is definitely not the same place as the normal underground Buddhist temple.
If so, it would be impossible to keep card props like [Soul-Calling Bell] until now, fearing that they would be taken away as soon as possible.
But it was also a bit of a coincidence. If it hadn't been for the unknown hand holding him all the way, in this absolute darkness, the probability of Luo Xi trying to touch the [Soul-Calling Bell] would have been nothing like finding a needle in a haystack. the difference.
As for the curse caused by shaking the [Soul-Calling Bell], Luo Xi still doesn’t know.
He touched the bell accidentally just now, and it did ring. So, is this a ringing?
Is there a curse hanging over me?
Luo Xi was thinking about it when suddenly he heard a strange sound, like someone whispering in his head in a very low voice.
Almost at the same time, Luo Xi reached out and grabbed it.
Caught nothing!
After a short period of silence, the strange sound came again, and this time, it was like a thorn suddenly piercing the ear hole.
Buzz.
Luo Xi froze for a moment.
"Psychic attack?"
Obviously, this is the negative curse caused by accidentally touching the [Soul-Calling Bell] just now. In the following time, that kind of low and weird whisper would sound from time to time, and every time, my head would buzz like a needle, causing strong discomfort.
But to be honest, this discomfort is simply not comparable to the headache caused by the previous bowl of noodle soup.
One is the junior level and the other is the top level.
Even top-level pain can be endured, let alone such a low-level one.
In the darkness, Luo Xi smiled.
"This kind of curse is not a big problem, even more will be fine."
Continuing to explore, Luo Xi has already memorized the route and direction he just walked, but because he can't see , there is no reference, so this route is almost useless.
If you take a few steps in place, you will lose your sense of direction in the dark.
"It's so quiet!"
Except for whispers from time to time, there is almost no movement around, and occasionally there are strange rustling noises, like a big insect. From here, Climbed over there.
"There are only three possibilities for Lin Qiqi not making a sound. One is that she died, one is that she turned on the light source and escaped from the lightless place, and the last one is that she sensed some kind of danger. , maybe you will die if you shout."
No matter what kind of situation it is, Luo Xi should remain quiet.
It is never wise to be the first to break the silence.
Regarding the strange rustling noise in the darkness, Luo Xi thought of the big centipede with a Buddha's head on its head.
If it is the Insect Buddha, the danger increases, but this possibility is not high, because the Insect Buddha is a statue, and like other Buddha statues, it will only appear when the bells ring. Come alive.
Slowly explore forward.
This kind of exploration is full of unknowns. No one knows whether there will be sharp spikes ahead, and no one knows whether the next step will miss the mark and fall into the abyss.
The pressure you have to endure here is definitely unimaginable by others.
Especially when you find some weird things and unknown noises in the dark, you will naturally think of the things that scare you the most.
But Luo Xi is immune to this kind of pressure and fear.
He is just exploring.
"It should be a wooden beam. The wooden beam has mortise and tenon joints and railings. It may be a corridor. No, it is actually a pavilion. Is there something wrong with your brain when building a pavilion in this place?" Relying on the touch from his fingers, Luo Xi can judge the surrounding environment.
He continued groping.
Then he touched the body.
The hanging corpse.
"It's completely dead. There are more than one corpse. Most of them are stiff and dry. They must have been dead for a long time. Hey. There is a softer one here with flesh. Could it be that he just died?"
< br>I felt up the body and found that it was some kind of weird thread that was strangling the body.
It was so thin that Luo Xi accidentally cut her finger on these threads.
"It's a bit like a wire rope, but thinner. What exactly is it?" Luo Xi did not change direction, but continued to move forward. The corpses in front of him were like curtains hanging down, blocking the footsteps of anyone passing by.
Many.
I can imagine the scene of many corpses hanging and crowded in a passage.
So, Luo Xi bent down and lowered his head.
He is bold, which does not mean reckless.
He is very careful, and if there is danger, he will not hesitate to shake the [Soul-Calling Bell].
After passing through the hanging area composed of countless corpses, Luo Xi touched a wall.
There are grids on the wall. The grids are regular and seem to be arranged on the wall. It feels like a small locker, or the kind of grid wall where ashes are stored in a cemetery.
Luo Xi spent a lot of time figuring out the size of this wall and how many grids there were.
Although invisible, at this moment, a wall with 5 rows, 30 columns and 150 grids has been constructed in Luo Xi's mind.
It can be said that that kind of picture is vivid in Luo Xi's mind.
“It turns out that this is what 4 and 27 mean.”
The password hidden in the Buddhist verse on the merit box corresponds to a new address, ‘Lightless Land 427’.
Now, Luo Xi has found the Lightless Land, and 4 and 27 are most likely pointing to the 'coordinates' on this strange grid wall.
"4 rows, 27 columns." Luo Xi has found the corresponding position.
Each grid has a small wooden door with a metal ring embedded in it, which can be opened with one pull.
“What will be hidden inside?”
“You have spent so much effort and effort to lead me to this place, what will be left inside?”
< br>Luo Xi tried to pull.
He thought it would not be that easy to open. After all, although the Lightless Land is difficult to enter, after such a long time and so many cycle days, it is impossible to say that no one who collects memories has entered here.
But he pulled away easily.
Luo Xi went in and touched behind him, and then touched a human face.
