Chapter 2539: Climbing the Ladder
"That should be it." Gu Yan turned her head and looked at them. She said, "We just hit a few of them. They should have retreated temporarily, but they may come back after a while. Now this is not a place to stay for long."
"If the other side comes with more people and is very familiar with this terrain, it will be very disadvantageous to us." Wen Lan nodded.
Gu Yan nodded, and went to check on the condition of several wounded soldiers. After confirming with Angel and the others that they could continue the transfer, he immediately led his men to retreat.
The only direction they moved to was the temple in the clouds.
In fact, Gu Yan didn't want to rush in directly. After all, he didn't know how many mechanisms and traps were inside, and what if there was some talisman formation or something.
But the current situation no longer allows Gu Yan and the others to make long-term plans.
only……
Seeing the hesitation in Gu Yan's eyes, Miao Xiaoyu said, "Gu Yan, you are worried that they might still be in the Savage Tribe, right?"
"If they were really caught by the savage tribe, they would probably have been eaten by now, right?" Moloch muttered beside him, and then said with a bit of pride, "But they definitely wouldn't dare to eat the boss. If they ate the boss, they would be poisoned to death!"
Gu Yan was a little speechless.
Hey man, is this something you're proud of?
If the other party eats Lucifer, even if he is poisoned to death, Lucifer is already dead, okay?!
Miao Xiaoyu patted Moloch's head hard and said, "Stop talking nonsense, you crow-mouth! The boss is definitely safe!"
Gu Yan turned her head to look at the smoke-filled building, thought for a moment, and said, "Let's retreat slowly first, see how the other party reacts, and then make plans."
It is definitely not possible to rashly enter that building. Even Liu Xingyun is afraid of it. It must be very dangerous.
If they were really trapped in some formation, even if they had all the skills, they would be useless.
We can't blow up the whole building.
And just as Miao Xiaoyu said before, Gu Yan was indeed worried that Aye and the others would be trapped among the savages.
Now that we're here, it's always better to be cautious.
When Gu Yan and the others retreated to the outskirts, they rested for a while and found that there was no movement outside.
After all this commotion, the sky gradually darkened.
The night covered everything equally.
Gu Yan and the others did not advance rashly, but stayed in a low house, which could shelter them from the wind and rain, and was still a long way from the main hall.
Looking at the tall steps covered with grass and trees, they seemed a bit sacred in the moonlight.
"There are a total of 13,199 stairs. Those who seek immortality need to walk to the end step by step without stopping. If they stop for more than a quarter of an hour, it will be considered a failure." Liu Xingyun's voice was full of nostalgia.
Gu Yan turned around and asked, "Seeking immortality?"
"They are just legends. Deep down, everyone believes in the existence of immortals."
Gu Yan knew that Liu Xingyun didn't want to continue talking about this matter, so she didn't ask any further questions.
Guo Rou came over and said curiously, "Although there are many stairs, most of us should be able to walk to the end in one breath. We only need to rest for three to five minutes at most, and we should still be able to climb up."
"Of course, all of you have very good physical fitness, but the kind I'm talking about are teenagers." Liu Xingyun explained patiently, then he raised his head and looked at the stairs that seemed to lead to heaven.
It was as if I saw the little silver-haired beggar struggling to climb this ladder many years ago.
