After saying that, Cui Hao's voice slowly became darker.
Gradually, his steps became extremely heavy.
I realized something, but I didn't look back.
Cui Hao followed me silently for nearly four or five minutes. Finally, he couldn't help but shout.
"Master Man, don't you know it hurts?"
I looked back and instantly saw the blade stuck in my back.
A heartbreaking pain came, and I couldn't help shouting.
I immediately pulled out the dagger, quickly found a bandage from my backpack and wrapped it on my back.
Cui Hao was completely confused at this time.
He stared at my back in disbelief and helped me bandage it.
"Master Xiao Man, why don't I understand what's going on now? Why didn't you make any sound when I stabbed you just now?"
After saying that, Cui Hao stared at the dagger in fear.
"When I told you that I was going to use the knife and asked you to be careful, I pierced the blade directly into your back. But you didn't react at all at that time, so I felt something was wrong. Later, I followed you again For three or four minutes, you didn't even cry out in pain, your face was still so calm, as if you didn't feel anything at all."
At this point, Cui Hao couldn't help lowering his head and looked at the wound on his arm that I had made.
He muttered to me in disbelief.
"In other words, was I in the same state just now? That's why I didn't realize that you had inserted something into my body. In other words, this knife did not suddenly grow on my body, but on you Move your hands on me?"
I nodded, confirming his conjecture.
"Fat man, you finally came to your senses."
I walked over to Cui Hao and pointed at the knife edge on his arm.
"I felt something was wrong just now, because after we entered the underground, I felt very cold all the time. But suddenly you said it was very hot here, and my feeling changed. The heat around me was rising, and I also felt that it was very hot here. .”
As I said that, I took out the dagger and played with it in my hand.
"I thought at that time that the same situation seemed to be happening on the ground. You said it was very cold around me, and I felt a shiver in my body. So I felt that this place seemed to change as our consciousness changed."
I turned around and saw Cui Hao, with a bit of coldness in his eyes.
"I don't know if you can understand what I mean. Rather than saying that we are trapped in a ghost fighting against the wall, it is better to say that the two of us seem to be addicted to an illusion. This illusion can only be realized if we see the scene in person. If If something happens to us unintentionally, even if a knife is inserted into our body, neither of us will notice it."
Cui Hao looked at the blade in my hand and finally nodded and believed what I said.
He stared at his hands in disbelief.
"Then what's going on between the two of us now?"
I looked around and already had a guess in my mind.
"I think the two of us are probably already in a state of soul separation. There is a high probability that our souls are not in our bodies, so that's why we are like this."
As I said that, I looked back and looked at the other side of the chain bridge again.
"So maybe we didn't come up from below at all. I'm still in the dark space underground. We have to go back as soon as possible."
Now that we are in a state of soul separation, it is very likely that something underground has forced the souls of the two of us out.
However, this thing was extremely weird. It didn't give either of us any time to react. We didn't even realize that our souls had left our bodies.
The two of us crawled out from below in a daze, thinking that we could leave this place, but we didn't expect that we were still trapped in this place.
Cui Hao looked at me in disbelief.
"Then let's go back again?"
I nodded, grabbed the cold iron rope, and climbed back up.
"Of course, we have to climb back up again. The two of us seem to have come out, but our bodies are still inside. We have to go back the same way and look for everything along the way."
I am very worried that our bodies have encountered something unexpected inside, so we must go back as soon as possible to avoid the situation getting worse.
Cui Hao nodded, followed closely behind me and crawled back.
The two of us searched all the way and returned to the place where the hot spring is.
As expected.
I clearly saw our two bodies floating on the surface of the hot spring pool.
Our bodies seemed to be dragged to the surface of the water by something. At this time, they were constantly swaying up and down with the water waves.
"Our bodies are actually here."
Cui Hao stared at the water in disbelief, quickly stood up and planned to rush forward.
However, at the moment of his impact, his body was suddenly bounced back, and he fell to my feet with a thud.
"Don't go, there's something wrong with this place."
The two of us killed all the weird spider-infested bodies here.
However, because we stayed here for too long, maybe we still breathed in the smell that was spreading in the air here.
Put the two of us down here.
And it can force our souls out unconsciously, allowing us to crawl out without realizing it.
There is something wrong with the things here. Maybe someone has set up some kind of formation here.
I immediately turned my head and quickly looked around carefully.
Soon, my eyes fell on the center of the pool.
I vaguely saw a layer of gray-white light rising from there, and there seemed to be something shaking underneath.
I pointed at the gray mass and shouted to Cui Hao next to me.
"That's where the problem should be."
He glanced back in the direction of my finger and immediately realized what the problem was.
"Cui Hao, I'm going to find a way to see what's under this pool. You look at our two bodies. If anything strange happens, prepare to attack immediately to see if you can return to the body."
There is obviously something wrong under the water in this pool.
The two of us can't act together to avoid falling into it.
I could only ask Cui Hao to wait for me on the ground for a while while I rushed over to see the situation.
Cui Hao nodded at me, told me to pay attention to my safety a few times, and then walked not far from our bodies, always alert to the surrounding movements.
I took a deep breath, came to the side of the pool, held my breath and plunged straight in.
Instantly, a ball of warmth enveloped my body.
I can feel waves of heat rising up my soul, if it weren't for the fact that the surrounding environment was too cold.
I decided to find an opportunity to take a bath here. This feeling was so comfortable that it even poured directly into my soul.
I opened my eyes and carefully looked at the location where I had just seen the light.
Vaguely, I seemed to see a shadow swimming under the water.
This shadow is about three meters high and can be as long as seven or eight meters wide. It is huge and moves under the ground along with the water waves.
Since there was still some distance between us, we couldn't see clearly what this thing was.
But I can use the vague light around me to see that this thing seems to have white-gray hair, which is constantly floating with the water waves.
"What the hell is this?"
I suppressed the fear in my heart, tightened the dagger in my hand and swam towards this thing.
This time, I was not bounced back like Cui Hao just did.
As he gradually approached the shadow, the figure of this thing was clearly visible.
A roar suddenly came from in front of me. This sound was clearly the tiger roar we heard on the shore before.
I finally saw it clearly.
The gray-white thing in front of me was clearly a big tiger with black and white stripes.
"White Tiger?"
In an instant, the word appeared in my mind.
I suddenly remembered the green dragon, green dragon and white tiger, and Xuanwu Suzaku that I had seen inside the Shangmen before.
Suddenly an idea flashed through my mind, but before I could think about it, the white tiger had already spotted me.
He turned back suddenly, roared in the sky, paddled the water crazily with his four hooves, opened his bloody mouth and pounced on me.
I realized something was wrong and immediately turned around and swam back.
At this time, I vaguely saw that there seemed to be a ball of light floating in the middle of the lake.
This thing emits a faint light underwater, clearly illuminating a space.
And I can clearly see that a cloud of gray-white smoke spread from the tiger's tail, which was clearly submerged into the ball of light.
"This white tiger seems to be one with this ball of light."
After realizing this, I immediately knew that if I wanted to deal with the white tiger, I had to figure out what this light ball was.
Maybe by smashing this ball of light, we can break free from the illusion just now and return to our two bodies again.
Thinking of this, I immediately turned around and quickly turned around to see the white tiger rushing forward.
Originally, the white tiger was chasing behind me, watching me escape as if chasing prey.
Now I suddenly turned around and rushed towards the white tiger.
He was obviously stunned by me, and his movements couldn't help but slow down a bit.
And I took the opportunity to rush in front of Bai Hu, quickly swung the Shang Fang sword in my hand, and struck Bai Hu hard.
There was a crash.
Shang Fang's sword broke through the water surface. As the mist rose, Shang Fang's sword split open the hot spring water, forming a chasm underground.
Immediately after the surrounding water layer receded, Shang Fang's sword was tightly held in my hand, and I slashed head-on towards the white tiger.
