Only children eat candy!
The four people were forced to the wall. If they continued like this, they would all be eaten by insects.
Some lucky black bugs crawled onto the shoes, causing goose bumps, but were quickly shaken off.
Lin Yuan is not afraid of death, but she is afraid of pain. If she is to die from thousands of insects gnawing at her heart and liver bit by bit, she would rather stab herself in the heart with a knife like the woman in the mural. At least it is a short pain, and a short pain is always better than a long pain.
Yuan Xuanlang applied Lin Yuan's insecticide on the sword. As the black bugs came, he swept them away. When he swept to the base of the wall, his hand hit a brick on the wall, which was actually moving!
He pushed the brick down, but the stone door showed no reaction. Looking up, he saw a mural depicting two lovers swearing a vow of eternal love by the Naihe Bridge. It was the first mural. He suspected that similar bricks might be found beneath several other murals.
Yuan Xuanlang recalled Lin Yuan's teasing words: "It seems that Senior doesn't want to give you the happy head that Senior Brother wants."
Xilemen...
Yuan Xuanlang suddenly realized that the senior would not give you a happy beginning, you have to create this happy beginning yourself.
Just as Lin Yuan's mind was filled with how to die more comfortably, Yuan Xuanlang's calm and powerful voice interrupted her thoughts.
"Everyone, look for any push-button bricks underneath the mural. Then think about how to arrange the contents of the mural so that it ends with joy. This is the key to opening the stone door."
Lin Yuan distributed the powerful insecticide in the bag to Yu Luo, and touched the mechanism brick 3 feet away from the wall.
She looked at the mural again. From the vows of love, to the companionship of husband and wife, to their separation and final suicide, it was a tragedy no matter how you arranged it.
The dark room was silent, and the shadow of the flame moved up and down, sometimes like a red flower bud, sometimes like a gossamer thread, like the dying struggle of a dying person.
The fire shadows were cast on the mural, making the faces of the people in the mural look hideous. The woman on the wall seemed to move her eyes, but when Lin Yuan blinked and looked again, she didn't move at all. She broke out in a cold sweat.
Lin Yuan's heart beat faster and her throat tightened as she watched. The monsters and demons were the people in the murals. The red wedding dress was stained with blood. The couple was talking and laughing, and the corners of their mouths were cracked to their ears.
She thought of something, was stunned for a moment, then pinched her arm hard and bit out two words: "ghost marriage".
It’s a ghost marriage!
Yuan Xuanlang suddenly turned his head to look at her, and the scenes in his mind were rearranged. The couple were separated, and then both committed suicide for love. They reunited in the underworld, became husband and wife, and lived together. It was an unconventional "happy" ending.
No wonder the hen in the painting of men farming and women weaving has no eyes, it is actually a dead thing.
Yuan Xuanlang said loudly: "Senior sister, press the brick in front of you and the brick on the right, and then," he looked at Lin Yuan, "Junior sister, press the brick in front of you." As if he had forgotten about the fish falling.
After both of them pressed the buttons in turn, Yuan Xuanlang pressed the first, second, and third bricks.
calm,
The rustling of the black insects was particularly loud in the empty dark room.
Lin Yuan only had a small handful of insecticide left.
I hope the stone gate will open, otherwise I will really be dismembered by insects.
I never felt that the few seconds of waiting would stretch to centuries.
"Creaky——" the stone door opened!
Yuan Xuanlang shook his sword, and the last insecticide was sprayed out, opening a path less than three feet long in the black water.
One after another, a group of people rushed into another stone chamber.
Looking back at the black bugs on the ground, he didn't dare to step in here.
The stone door closed and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Yuan slid down slowly with his back against the wall and sat on the ground, complaining silently. He used to hate bugs, but now he hates them even more. Also, he dared not look at any murals anymore.
A candy jumped into view, and the owner of the candy was Yuan Xuanlang.
The tiny flames danced gently, casting an orange glow on the owner's face and hair, like a pug trying to please its owner.
"Come, junior sister, have some candy to calm your nerves." The person in front of her had a playful and smiling face, as usual.
Humph, you must be laughing at me.
Lin Yuan didn't give him the chance to laugh at herself, and sneered: "I'm not a child who doesn't like sweet things. You should..." Before he could say "Give it to Yu Luo", candy was stuffed into his mouth.
Lin Yuan frowned and glared at him.
Yuan Xuanlang didn't care and patted Lin Yuan on the head: "Don't waste it."
Haha, I still remember what happened last time.
Lin Yuan tasted the candy and it had a minty flavor, which was refreshing and cool, but not too sweet. She could barely accept it.
Yuan Xuanlang shared some candy with Mu Yunxi and Yu Luo. Mu Yunxi declined politely, while Yu Luo hesitated and finally thanked him and accepted it.
Lin Yuan glanced at him out of the corner of her eye and thought to herself, "He's so caring about girls, and he's so handsome, so he must have a lot of romantic opportunities. My aunt said, don't get too close to men like that, they can easily hurt you."
After a short pause, they looked around. This stone chamber was obviously much larger than the original one, but it only contained a few objects: a stone seat and a broken table.
There was a tattered paper-shaded lamp on the table, and the lamp holder on the wall held a luminous pearl, casting a soft and faint light on the entire stone room.
At this moment, two stone doors on the wall opened, and a man in black clothes ran in in a panic. Two girls came in from the other stone door. Lin Yuan looked closely and found that they were Zhao Qianxue and Gu Paner!
The two groups of people near the stone gate were on guard against each other. Suddenly, a cursing voice came from behind the man in black: "You bastard, you ****! Don't let me catch you!"
The man in black frantically ran around the stone chamber, but found no extra passages. Several people looked at him in amusement. The man plopped down on his knees before Lin Yuan, looking like a desperate and miserable person. He begged in a tearful voice, "Please, lady, save me..."
Lin Yuan shuddered, "Damn, why did you come to me?"
Yuan Xuanlang smiled and said, "Because you look beautiful, kind-hearted, and compassionate."
Lin Yuan glanced at him and said, "Are you setting a trap for me?"
Speaking of Bodhisattva, Yuan Xuanlang is more suitable because he was given the nickname "Little Bodhisattva of Mirror Lake" by his fellow disciples. Humph, that's because they don't know how Yuan Xuanlang bullied his junior sister.
