"Wuwu!"
Sorrowful voices resounded in the air. Anyone who heard them would be heartbroken. Anyone could hear the sorrow in them.
Gu Zheng hid behind a box at the side and looked gravely at the opposite side. Although the crying was heart-wrenching, he was completely unmoved.
In a large hall in front of him, a white-robed woman was sitting on the ground with an aggrieved expression. Translucent tears would occasionally fall from her drooping eyes.
Her crying was completely different from the girl he had met before. She was truly crying here, while the other girl seemed to be wailing. She was deliberately making those terrifying sounds to disturb the enemy.
Gu Zheng had already been here for a while. That was because in front of the crying woman was a red table with a golden jade on top of it.
Next to Jin Yu, there was a small bowl with green water on top of it. Wisps of green water were constantly rising from the bowl, turning into a green line that connected to Jin Yu.
At this time, a corner of the golden jade had already been transformed into green. Although it would take a long time for it to completely transform, it would still eventually be able to infect the golden jade.
"I'm afraid this is the enemy's way of controlling this area bit by bit."
Gu Zheng thought to himself. At the same time, he was thinking of a way to take it away from the enemy. Although he didn't know how to use this golden jade, he felt that the more things he had, the better. Perhaps he would be able to use it at a critical moment.
Right now, he still had a white crystal and two red crystals. As for the others, they were all from the very beginning. After such a long time, he still hadn't found anything else. His luck was a bit bad.
Carefully considering it, Gu Zheng didn't want to test just how strong the enemy was. He directly threw it to a corner not far away.
"Crackle!"
The sound of firecrackers, accompanied by sparks, rang out. The sound wasn't very loud, but in this quiet place, it was especially conspicuous.
The crying woman immediately stopped. She then stood up and slowly walked over. However, her speed was truly worrisome. She was like an old granny walking.
However, the red crystal took a long time. Gu Zheng had long since known about this. He patiently waited. When the other side turned around the wooden pillar, he quickly walked over to the red table and reached out to grab the golden jade.
"Hmm?"
Gu Zheng grabbed the golden jade in midair and wanted to bring it back, but he found that the green color instantly turned into a strong green line when the golden jade moved. It relied on the infected area and firmly bound the other party in midair.
This time, Gu Zheng did not expect that he would not be able to capture him.
At this moment, the commotion on the other side had already disappeared. Through the gap in the middle, he could see the ghost girl slowly walking over. Her movements were also as slow as before.
At this moment, he finally felt that the other party's slow speed was much more advantageous to him. He quickly increased his strength and pulled in this direction.
The bowl seemed to be sucked onto the table, and the green line in the middle kept extending. The seemingly fragile green line was actually so tenacious.
Gu Zheng made up his mind and suddenly used his strength. The green line finally could not withstand it and broke in the air. He could not control his body and quickly took two steps back. However, when his feet landed on the ground, there was almost no sound. He did not disturb the crying woman who was slowly walking back.
What he did not expect was that when the golden jade was just in his hand, the bowl in front of him suddenly exploded out of thin air. He was caught off guard and was instantly hit by a large amount of green fog. It was as if his whole body was dyed with a layer of green.
"You are here!"
The crying woman in the blind spot suddenly screamed, as if she had discovered Gu Zheng. Then, her body suddenly sped up, bypassed the wooden pillar, and chased after Gu Zheng who was already running away.
Gu Zheng complained in his heart. Who would have thought that the green bowl would explode and stick to his body and could not be removed?
He turned his head to look at the crying woman behind him and found that she was already rushing towards him. That ferocious face, that resentful gaze, it was as if he was the heartless man who had abandoned her. Especially the purple fingernails in her hands, they were like small daggers.
More importantly, the other party's speed seemed to be much faster than his. She was closing in on him at a speed visible to the naked eye.
With just a glance, the other party had already crossed half the distance. Like a ghost, she floated in the air and flew towards him.
Gu Zheng's hand was already holding the white crystal. As soon as the other party came closer, he was going to throw it out.
However, after leaving this corridor, there was another hall. This was beyond Gu Zheng's expectations. This was because he did not come here before. He felt that if he took the golden jade from the other party, it would be a sure thing. Moreover, he would not alarm the other party.
Of course, the result was that he did not follow the other party's plan.
Gu Zheng put away the white crystal in his hand and suddenly sped up. He arrived in front of the unusually conspicuous mirror. The next moment, his figure disappeared from the air.
And the mirror also made a "kacha" sound and directly shattered on the table.
The crying woman, who was following closely behind, after seeing Gu Zheng disappear in front of the mirror, also roared angrily. Then, as if she had forgotten about Gu Zheng, she aimlessly walked in another direction.
And the fragments on the small table also slowly disappeared in the air.
And on this side, after Gu Zheng's vision was in a trance, his whole body appeared in a strange place. However, when he looked around, he was still on the ship.
After all, this endless darkness was exactly the same as the scene next to him.
After knowing that these things were generated by his own magic treasure, Gu Zheng did not hesitate to activate the teleportation. It seemed that he had successfully gotten rid of the other party and saved the last white crystal. He felt that he had earned a lot.
After calming down his somewhat excited heart, Gu Zheng walked around in all directions, wanting to see where he had come to.
At this time, he was in a corridor. Both sides were dark. After randomly choosing a direction, he walked forward.
"Squeak"
A strange sound came from the front, making Gu Zheng's heart freeze. He slowly approached that direction.
That sound was a bit familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.
Just a few steps, the front suddenly became spacious. It turned out to be a hall, and the sound came from inside.
Gu Zheng's vision was limited. Listening to the sound getting closer and closer, he slowly approached again.
"Pa pa pa"
When Gu Zheng just stepped into this hall, a series of sounds sounded around him. At the same time, above his head, a milky white light rose with the sound.
The uniform white light sprinkled in the entire hall, allowing Gu Zheng to see this place clearly.
In the middle of this hall, and a little bit to the side, some slippery tentacles were swaying weakly, and the strange sound just now was the sound of the other party hitting the floor.
Seeing this, Gu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the attacks of these tentacles were strange, but the other party was in a motionless state, so the threat was less.
This place should also be a hidden place. Under the automatic illumination here, he could see that in three directions, there were three golden doors and three ordinary wooden doors.
On one hand, it was a pity that the mirror was just an ordinary mirror. If only it was the target he was looking for. He bypassed the tentacles blocking the way in the middle and touched the three golden doors.
"Huh? None of them! "
Gu Zheng looked at the golden key in his hand and said with some astonishment.
The corresponding patterns on these three golden doors were different, but none of them matched the key in his hand. His luck was really bad.
Gu Zheng put away the golden key in his hand and walked towards the wooden door on the side. To his relief, the wooden door was not locked, and it opened with a gentle push.
At this time, Gu Zheng was at the wooden door on the right. It did not lead to other places, nor was it a room. It was less than a zhang away, and he had already reached the end. In front of Gu Zheng was a shelf, and on it was a small wooden doll.
This wooden doll had hands and feet, and was less than three inches in length. Its edges and corners were vivid and lifelike, and it was very delicate. The strange thing was that the face of the little doll was blank. It was a faceless doll.
Gu Zheng really did not know that there was such a strange thing in this place, and it was placed in such a narrow place. He could not help but reach out and pick it up, carefully looking at it in his hand, wanting to see if there was any mystery in it.
However, after a simple round, there was no mechanism to open it. It gave him the feeling that it was an ordinary wooden doll. He was a little disappointed, and turned the doll to the front again to look at it.
"It doesn't seem to have any hair before, right?"
Gu Zheng looked at the wooden doll in his hand. Its originally bald head now had some black hair, as though it had grown out right in front of his eyes. However, he had not noticed it at all, which made him feel a little strange. He stared closely at the wooden doll in front of him to see if there were any other changes.
Under his stare, the doll indeed began to change a little. He saw traces of white light appear on its face, and its outline began to slowly appear.
Gu Zheng stared at it intently, wondering if other people's faces were going to appear, or if there were other changes.
However, what he never expected was that after a few breaths of time, when the light on the wooden doll's face faded away, a face that was exactly the same as his appeared.
"Hehe!"
The wooden doll suddenly laughed strangely. Before Gu Zheng could react, its head tilted and it bit his thumb, causing a line of blood to flow out.
That pain was not intense. However, such a strange thing still caused Gu Zheng's hand to tremble. He directly swung his arm forward and threw the man away.
Even stranger was that the wooden doll that had been thrown away came to an abrupt stop in midair. It then stabilized its body and charged at Gu Zheng once more.
Gu Zheng immediately retreated and closed the wooden door again. This doll was so strange that it was best not to approach it.
But before he could heave a sigh of relief, the wooden doll passed through the wooden door. He watched helplessly as it rushed into his chest and disappeared.
"Where did it go?"
Gu Zheng touched his body, but he did not find any trace of it. He did not even feel anything different about his body.
After being alarmed for a long time, Gu Zheng calmed down. Thinking that this was not something the other party had planted, perhaps it was something good for him.
He could only comfort himself like this. What else could he do? He couldn't even see through it. He could only be passive. He would deal with whatever came his way.
Even so, Gu Zheng still walked towards the other two wooden doors, wanting to see what was inside.
Opening the middle wooden door, there was a slightly larger space inside. A white light also rose from inside. What made Gu Zheng happy was that he actually saw a mirror inside. He knew that he had come to a dead end. Otherwise, this thing would not have been prepared to let him leave.
Besides the mirror, there was nothing else in this house. Gu Zheng arrived in front of the door, but to Gu Zheng's disappointment, the door was locked. He couldn't enter at all. Instead, through the golden door, he could see that there seemed to be a lever inside. Perhaps it was the mechanism to open this place.
It didn't matter if it was or not. In any case, he couldn't enter. He definitely couldn't open it.
Gu Zheng walked around and then walked over, wanting to see what was inside.
After leaving here, he quickly walked out of the light and fell into darkness.
There were no rooms in this corridor, but Gu Zheng also knew his approximate location. Soon, he came back to the place where he first came in.
Without stopping, he continued to walk in that direction. This time, he didn't walk too far. A new hall appeared in front of Gu Zheng.
The familiar light rose again with the arrival of Gu Zheng, revealing the appearance of the entire hall.
There were no tentacles in this place. The whole hall was unusually clean. There was only a wooden door directly opposite, and in the middle, a golden jade shining with golden light was lying there quietly.
Gu Zheng was also a little happy when he saw this. He didn't expect that there would be a golden jade in this place. It was really beyond his expectations.
However, he didn't immediately go to take the golden jade. Instead, he walked towards the door. He felt that there should be something inside.
Unfortunately, this door also couldn't be opened. This made him extremely disappointed. He didn't know why there were so many doors that couldn't be opened.
Gu Zheng sighed regretfully, then turned around and walked towards the golden jade in the middle. Since there were only two small places here, he could pick up the golden jade and leave. The green light on his body had also completely disappeared. Presumably, the ghost girl wouldn't be able to catch up.
He didn't notice that the moment he turned around, the wooden door behind him was gradually dyed red with blood. It quickly spread upwards.
"Dingdang!"
Gu Zheng had just taken the golden jade in his hand. He didn't even have time to check if there was anything different on it. Suddenly, a sound that frightened him rang out from behind him.
Turning slightly to look, he found that a ghost girl had already rushed up from behind him. It gave him a big fright. There was actually a ghost here. And the blood on the door that hadn't faded yet made him understand how the other party came out.
Feeling the biting cold dark aura behind him, Gu Zheng didn't say anything. He directly supported himself with one hand on the table in front of him and instantly jumped over. At the same time, he quickly ran towards the opposite passage.
"Bang!"
The bell in the ghost girl's hand continuously rang. She directly knocked over the table in front of her. Her speed wasn't slower than Gu Zheng's as she chased after him.
Feeling that the ghost girl was getting closer and closer behind him, Gu Zheng wasn't in a hurry. With the distance between them, by the time the ghost girl caught up, he would have already rushed to the opposite room and left. The passage in the middle wasn't long at all. In a few steps, he had already rushed over.
Seeing that he had just entered the hall in front of him, the ghost girl suddenly waved the bell in her hand. A sudden loud sound reverberated from her body.
Layers of red light waves that could be seen with the naked eye instantly rushed forward. The golden jade on Gu Zheng's body trembled slightly and instantly raised a golden shield, blocking the red light waves.
Before Gu Zheng could be happy, the tentacles in the hall, under the red light waves' sweep, one after another, their bodies swelled up by three times. The huge tentacles filled all the space in front of them. The tentacles at the front were even more restless, dancing in the air, ready to attack Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng immediately shouted when he saw this. At the same time, he suddenly jumped into the air and then heavily stepped on the ground.
"Boom!" A loud sound was heard.
The entire room suddenly shook. At the same time, under Gu Zheng's feet, a black light flashed, and a black air wave instantly rushed in front of him.
The air wave didn't seem to have any power, but the tentacles seemed to have seen a ghost. Wherever it passed, all the tentacles shrank back and disappeared from the floor.
The entire area in front of him was instantly empty. Although there were still many tentacles around, they were no longer able to reach Gu Zheng.
At this time, the ghost girl behind him took advantage of this opportunity to open up quite a bit of distance between them. She was now less than thirty feet away from Gu Zheng, and the bell in her hand continuously rang out in an attempt to interfere with Gu Zheng's actions.
Unfortunately, under the protection of the golden jade, the other party's interference was minimal. It didn't affect his actions at all.
Like a gust of wind, Gu Zheng's figure rushed into the room in an instant. With a flash of light from the mirror, he disappeared from the room again.
After Gu Zheng's eyes were in a trance again, he found himself in an unfamiliar room. The surroundings were quiet, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Thinking of what happened just now, he was also very glad. Fortunately, when he was below, he didn't go there first. There was actually an ambush in that place. Otherwise, he would have to use that life-saving thing to get away.
Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, Gu Zheng subconsciously looked around. His eyes suddenly lit up again, because in a half-closed drawer next to him, he could clearly see a key shining with silver light inside.
However, such a familiar scene reminded Gu Zheng of that despicable black bug, which had nearly caused him to fall into its trap.
But now he wasn't afraid of the other party. With that layer of protection, at least he could open it with peace of mind.
Coming in front of the key, Gu Zheng looked through the gap, trying to see where the other party was hiding. But no matter how he looked left and right, even if he pulled it slightly, he still couldn't find the other party.
After a slight delay, Gu Zheng didn't hold back anymore. Through the small gap, he directly reached out and took out the silver key.
The moment he held the key in his hand, a black light instantly rushed out from inside. Even Gu Zheng, who had been carefully watching below, didn't notice how the other party appeared.
When his eyes followed the other party's light down, the other party had already attached itself to his bare feet.
But this time, a layer of transparent light blocked the other party's bite, and the other party could only do nothing.
With a shake, the other party was easily thrown off. The next moment, a large foot trampled the other party to death on the floor, splashing a pool of black water.
Putting away the key, Gu Zheng left the room.
