The python-like strips of light slowly approached Xiao Bin's corpse. After circling around it for a while, one of the many strips of light suddenly pierced into Xiao Bin's chest. As it wriggled, it began to absorb the cooling blood in Xiao Bin's body.
The wriggling tentacle-like body undulated and the liquid flowing inside gradually dyed red and emitted red light.
The strip of light seems to be the rattan of some kind of plant. It is not a whole, but a rattan that is separated and lives alone.
The faint blue light with a trace of red light, many rattans pierced Xiao Bin's body one after another. In less than a few seconds, Xiao Bin was sucked dry. For a time, the red light flickered.
After sucking the blood, the rattans of light slowly retracted to their original position, and one of the rattans rolled up Xiao Bin's body and threw it to the edge of the platform when it left.
The body flew out and fell into the dark abyss and kept falling.
Below, it was dark and nothing could be seen clearly. Only the sound of water flowing could be heard and the flowing water was faintly visible.
When the body was about to fall into the water, a dark shadow sprang out of the water and caught the body in mid-air. Then it slammed into the water and shook a splash. After a while, it calmed down.
The height of the platform to the bottom of the water is about 300 meters, that is to say, the water at the bottom is also located in the belly of the mountain.
There is the sound of running water, indicating that the water is running water, but they don't know where it comes from, where it goes, and whether it is in a cycle.
In the palace.
Law and his party didn't know what was happening outside. When the stone door closed automatically, they all subconsciously covered their whole body with the amount of air they exhaled and were ready to defend at all times.
No one spoke, there was silence in the palace, and the light of the flashlight fell on the ground and in the distance, covered with a thick layer of dust.
Sii!
At this moment, a slight sound rang in the darkness one after another. Everyone looked slightly condensed and held their breath to guard against possible changes.
It is reasonable to say that there can be no living people in the palace, nor can there be creatures, but the poisonous insects encountered in the corridor before and the inexplicable sound of the zither just now can't be judged by common sense.
In this situation, even if a zombie jumps out for a while, Law will not be surprised.
After the sound came out, seven or eight flashlights swayed around the palace. Suddenly, the palace was illuminated by a fire, but the stone statues on the left and right walls were on fire.
"Hmm?"
Law was surprised by the sudden appearance of the fire, but he remained calm and turned off the flashlight for the first time to save as much power as possible.
In the team, there were a few people whose faces twitched slightly as they forced themselves to remain calm.
First, the stone door closed on its own. Then, it ignited on its own. Everything seemed so strange.
The light of the fire illuminated the hall, allowing everyone to see everything clearly.
On both sides of the wall, there was a tall headless stone statue every ten meters. The flames were coming from the necks of the headless statues.
Near the center of the palace, there were two rows of stone pillars that extended straight to the end. At the very front, there was a square palace. In front of the door stood six three-meter-tall stone statues with beast heads and human bodies. They seemed to be the guards guarding the door.
Stone statues, stone pillars, and palaces were the only things in the palace. Before everyone entered, they would never have thought that there would be another palace in such a spacious palace.
No one spoke. Only the sound of irregular breathing could be heard.
"If there is nothing good in it, wouldn't we have come here in vain?" Mark pulled at his black jacket full of iron rings and said gloomily.
"Go outside and rummage through the ruins. Even if you find a chamber pot, it will be valuable." Uncle Li glanced at him and said coldly, "But I prefer treasures to antiques."
Mark's face was suffocated and he was speechless. The other two telekinesis ability users standing beside him looked at the palace in front of them with expectation in their eyes. Like Uncle Li, they also like to touch treasures with their own hands.
However, as Uncle Li said, even if there are no treasures in this well-preserved palace, they can find items that collectors will buy at a high price in the wreckage of the building outside.
In other words, their trip is already worthwhile, and this palace in front of them is the last treasure chest.
At the thought of the dazzling and fascinating treasures in the treasure chest, the sense of crisis in their hearts faded a lot.
Law looked at the stone pillars and stone statues in the palace. They were very ordinary and there was nothing special about them. He just didn't know how the stone door closed automatically and how the stone statue ignited the flame automatically.
He deliberately looked at it and didn't find anything on the closed door or the flaming stone statue behind him. And along the way, except for the poisonous insects in the corridor, everything was too smooth. The most noteworthy thing was the inexplicable sound of the zither and Xiao Bin's mutation.
In this case, Law suddenly thought of the Psychic Beast and Martin's ability to use patterns to monitor. Both of them can be used as means of investigation to explore the mystery of the square palace in front of them. They don't need to personally take risks.
Everyone lifted their feet and walked towards the palace.
There were twelve stone pillars on the left and right, forming a straight palace path.
The pace of walking was very light and slow. Although the road was very smooth and they didn't encounter any traps, it was always good to be careful.
His caution was in vain.
The crowd walked until they were ten meters in front of the palace. It was calm.
At this moment, a passionate sound of zither strings rang through the palace without warning.
The sound of the zither strings, at first, was a fast glissando. It went the other way, from the high note to the low note, a total of forty-seven notes, which took only one second. It was like falling from the clouds to hell in an instant.
The extremely obvious sense of difference made the hearts of the weaker Mark and others almost stop beating.
After the glissando, the sound of the zither strings hovered back and forth between the low and middle ranges, like a vulture hovering above the sky of the wilderness, staring at the human beings who were about to lose their last breath.
The rhythm was so low and oppressive, as if the strings of a zither were heavily pressed down. It was like the music played during the funeral of the deceased in ancient times, mixed with the faintly discernible chirping of cicadas.
Listening to the constantly changing melody of the strings, everyone's faces changed with a burst of changes. They could only stand in place and be wary of any accidents that might happen.
Who is plucking the strings?
Law stared at the square palace where the sound of the zither strings came from. He just listened to the sound and didn't find anything wrong for the time being. But when he thought of Xiao Bin, he still felt a little uneasy, and others had the same reaction.
Suddenly, a huge black gas surged out of the palace, exuding a strong unknown aura.
Law looked at the black gas that suddenly emerged and his face changed.
Pressing the string, evil sound!
A part of the surging black gas separated from it and turned into arrows that shot at the crowd like lightning.
"Be careful!"
Law reacted quickly and jumped back at the same time as he reminded them. The others also made evasive movements.
Resonance, overtone!
The arrow-shaped black gas suddenly turned into a black net!
Law saw this and the air under his feet burst out and he bounced back, narrowly avoiding the black net. The black net fell to the ground, like a flame meeting water, disappearing and emitting a plume of black smoke.
On the other hand, almost all the others successfully escaped the black net. Only the two telekinesis ability users standing not far from Mark failed to escape and were covered by the black net.
The people who escaped the black net retreated far away.
The sound of the zither strings was still, the tone was clear as water, but it played so low and depressed, exuding a breath of despair.
Above the palace, the black gas surged, and no longer attacked Law and others.
The telekinesis ability user who was covered by the black net froze and remained motionless.
The black net turned into a dark air film and covered the two telekinesis ability users.
Looking at this scene, everyone felt uneasy.
They thought of Xiao Bin for the first time. Was it really the sound of the zither strings that controlled Xiao Bin, but when the sound of the zither strings sounded outside the palace, Uncle Li and others didn't notice it.
