Chapter 99: Chamber of Secrets
After leaving Ying'er, I returned to the wooden house.
Although Cangli was calm on the surface, I knew that he was also very worried inside. After all, there was still no clue at all.
"Didn't you see the person you want to meet?" Facing the night, I sat opposite him. Although it was already spring, the coldness was not over, and a cool breeze poured into the house from the window.
I shook my head and fell into silence again.
"Have you noticed nothing abnormal?" After a while, he suddenly asked.
I shook my head again.
After a little more time, he finally couldn't help but say, "I'll go with you again."
After a while, we were already in Boyi's mansion.
"What do you think is in the west wing?"
"I don't know, but I always feel something is wrong."
Cang Liyin and I left, stood on the roof of the east wing, and looked at the house opposite us with lights off from a distance. It was very quiet, so quiet that it made people wonder. If Boyi really lives in it, how could he not even have the breath of a strange person? Or, he was not in the mansion? Where could he go in the middle of the night?
At this moment, the lights in Ying'er's room were also turned off. What's even more strange was that there was no slight anger in the east wing under our feet.
There is indeed something strange about this mansion.
Just as I was hesitating, Cangli became much more direct.
"Since the room is empty, let's go in and take a look."
Let's talk, he had already grabbed my hand and cast a little space spell. The next moment, we were already in the east wing.
Sure enough, the room was empty and Ying'er didn't know where to go.
After searching around, there was no other noteworthy place in the room. But Ying'er was obviously still in the house before, so why did she disappear in a while?
Cang Li and I left the room, stood in the open space among the east and west wing rooms, looked back at the dark windows of the east wing rooms, and then looked at the west wing rooms opposite, which were still surprisingly quiet.
With eyes connected, we have reached an agreement.
Cang Li grabbed my hand, and in an instant, the scene in front of us gradually blurred, and then we were already in another room.
This room is the same size as the east wing room, but the furnishings in the house are very different. Of course, I know that the house we are in at the moment is the west wing room, but I didn't expect that from the outside, the room that seems ordinary is full of furniture and furnishings made of stone. Moreover, there is no bed in the room, but there is a stone table in it, and there is no chair next to the stone table. Except for one side with a door, the other three sides are more or less inlaid with stone slabs, and only a few regular windows are exposed, but the windows are locked.
The stone slabs inlaid on the walls are strangely shaped and have no rules, but they vaguely feel that they are a formation without rules, because in the chaos, they will make people feel unspeakable discomfort when they see them.
Apart from these, there is nothing else in this room, and even the breath of a stranger cannot be felt.
Except for this room, I have almost walked through the houses of the size of this mansion. Ying'er lives in the east room. The rest of the room should be Boyi's residence, but the scene in front of me could not tell at all that this room would be a living room.
The Bo Mansion is filled with a strange atmosphere, but it is completely different from what I felt at Fu Yuanwai Mansion many years ago. This atmosphere is even more gloomy and terrifying.
"I didn't expect even mortals can have so many ulterior motives."
Cang Li suddenly spoke with a little surprise or contempt for mortals.
Of course I know that this is not the right time to argue with him. The most important thing at the moment is to see what kind of secrets are hidden in this strange room.
We searched the wall separately, but still didn't find it. But somehow, the stones inlaid on the wall suddenly became more and more distressed. From the beginning, I felt messy, but no matter where I saw it, it seemed to be distorted and changed, and then I thought of many very terrifying images.
"What's wrong with you?" Somehow, I suddenly fell into a dizzying illusion, and staggered, Cang Li held me from behind. I turned my head in a daze, looked at his face that seemed very far away, and saw that he frowned slightly.
I shook my head hard, and my breathing became rapid, but the dizziness just now was still lingering, making me feel a little exhausted.
"These stones are strange." I barely maintained my willpower, but my whole body had lost its strength.
Cang Li turned his head and looked around, but his brows were locked tighter.
"Did you feel nothing after seeing these patterns?"
But I saw him shook his head in disguise, and I closed my eyes slightly. This feeling really made me feel extremely uncomfortable. He held me in time, but it still made me feel shaking. Fortunately, we seemed to be close to the square stone table. I subconsciously pressed my hand on the table, hoping to borrow some more force.
But I didn't expect that this press touched something. The originally gloomy stone table suddenly became transparent. In amazement, the stone table had become like a transparent jade, emitting a white halo from the inside out.
Cang Li quickly pulled me away and retreated vigilantly. He was about to evacuate, but found that it was too late. Because the environment in the house in front of us had begun to undergo other changes. Except for the square stone table, everything around seemed to have become empty. At the same time, my previous dizziness seemed to relieve a little, but the strength of my whole body did not come back.
I looked at the darkness gradually spreading around me, but immediately all my eyes were locked tightly by the stone table that emitted white light. But even under our feet, there was endless darkness. For a moment, I was shocked by the boundless darkness. Suddenly, I thought about it, but I pulled out many fragments of dust from the depths of my memory that had been covered for many years.
I seem to know the feeling of the darkness passing through the void and the traction of a beam of light in despair that is submerged by darkness...
Where have you seen it?
I collapsed in Cang Li's arms and thought hard about...
Just thinking about it, thinking... I fell into a state of chaos again. When I turned my head, Cang Li's figure was gone, but the square stone table was deeply engraved in my eyes, my mind, and my memory...
After a sudden panic, I suddenly became extremely quiet, peaceful, lazy, and desperate...
A shocking sound pulled me out of the trap of consciousness that I was constantly trapped in. My heart suddenly shook and my whole body trembled. But then, I suddenly felt that I had begun to regain some strength and my eyes could look at things again.
I looked closely and found that Cang Li had indeed firmly held a golden sword in his hand. The surroundings were lit, and the square stone table also returned to its previous dark posture.
But then, a burst of surprise surged into my heart.
At this moment, we are no longer in the strange house we had before.
I looked around carefully and found that we were in a real stone chamber at this time.
On the stone wall, there were several copper candlesticks hanging. The faint candlelight shook for a while because of our sudden visit, and then returned to peace. In the light of the candlelight, we could barely see the environment in the stone chamber.
It was called a stone chamber, but it seemed to be just a slightly wider channel groove, because on our left side, there was a channel winding out and turned to a place we couldn't see.
"It turned out to be, the technique of taking the air."
Cang Li put away Cang Rong's sword and looked around. From his tone, I could hear a little surprise and awe.
"Air-taking technique? What is it?"
I signaled to him that I seemed to have recovered a little bit of strength, but he still wrapped his shoulders tightly, without any relaxation.
"The technique of taking the air is the magic of the demon world."
"Demon Realm?" I was stunned. Which Demon Realm? Is it the Depression Forest? Or the Demon Realm that was said to have disappeared?
Before the surprise had passed, Cang Li and I almost said in unison: "There is a demonic spirit!"
A strong demonic aura suddenly surged out of this hidden secret room, and the source was naturally in the direction of the channel that turned out.
As he spoke, the candlelight on the stone wall also shook.
"ah--!"
A shrill scream came into my ears, and my heart tightened. This sound...is Ying'er!
"quick!"
In fact, there was no need for me to speak, Cangli had already helped me walk into the long passage.
After a few twists, Cang Li and I were instantly shocked by the scene that appeared in front of us. Even though he was an omnipotent god, he still trembled all over because of the bloody scene he saw in front of us.
At the end of this narrow passage, there was an extremely huge square stone chamber. Among the stone chamber is an altar. The ground around the altar is sunken, and at this time, the circle of sunken ground has been filled with slowly surging blood, forming a huge blood pool, which almost occupied most of the square stone chamber. But these are not the most terrifying. In this square stone chamber, to be precise, there are countless corpses of girls hanging above the blood pool. Strangely, these girls are covered in blood and are constantly dripping into the blood pool, but their faces are intact, and even their eyes are open, lifelike, looking at the same direction - the altar in the stone chamber in confusion.
Judging from the face, most of these girls are teenagers. Judging from the outline of their bodies, they are mostly thin and slim. I believe they were also graceful and graceful people during their lifetime. But what appears in front of us at this moment is bloody corpses and a strange expression frozen on their faces.
They were tied with iron chains and hung straight from the top of the stone chamber, staggered in an orderly manner, surrounding the altar one after another, as if a huge formation was formed.
I tried hard to restrain the disgust and fear that surged in my body, and looked at the altar through the gaps hanging in the corpses.
A woman with a yellow Shan faced us, and she knelt on the ground with her head tilted exaggeratedly. We could see the outline of her facial features, and at the same time, we could also see the distorted expression on her face because of the incomparable pain. From her mouth, a red light penetrated through, and as the light continued to gush out from her body, her body trembled violently.
And in front of her, a woman in a blood-red gauze dress stood. The woman, with her eyes closed, greedily sucking the red blood gushing out of Ying'er's mouth, still seemed to have not noticed our visit.
This woman made me feel deeply resentment and anger for a moment. At this moment, my heart was surging and I could no longer explain it in words.
You Ruojun – Skills!
She was still alive, and she actually lived in such an outrageous appearance.
