Leng. Lin Xixue felt this cold, as if she was locked in a cold storage while wearing only a single coat, a bone-deep cold that was desperate and inescapable.
This time she did not come to the void, but instead sank into a dark river.
But the river is not completely black. Rather, it is like water that has washed a brush, half black but still a little transparent.
Lin Xixue reacted briefly and soon realized something was wrong. Her thunder body was just beginning to form at this moment. Even if the temperature of the river water was low, how could she feel cold?
The coldness of the river seems to penetrate people's souls. Could it be that the river has something to do with the underworld?
There was no reliable basis, but she suddenly had such a weird idea.
The behavior of this blue-white jade bottle is also quite strange this time. When it manifested in the past, it always led itself into the void of nothingness. Why did it bring me to the bottom of this strange river this time?
Moreover, in the past, the jade bottle always had to swallow something when manifesting, but this time it just floated safely beside her without any reaction.
She wanted to step forward and hold the jade bottle in her hand, but as much as she moved forward, the jade bottle retreated, and the relative distance between one person and one bottle remained unchanged.
She tried to retreat again, but the jade bottle also turned from retreating to advancing, and chased her again.
She just felt confused and didn't understand what the jade bottle meant.
What do you want me to do? Just say it directly.
You can obviously conjure green-gold runes to express meaning, so why do you have to guess by yourself?
Unless it is, is there any special reason why this jade bottle cannot say it directly?
But what could be the reason? To avoid detection by some kind of existence? Or is it that speaking out will violate some kind of taboo?
She couldn't figure it out for a while, so she had to explore the surroundings first to see if she could find any clues.
She swung her arms and tried to surface to take a look, but the black water had no buoyancy at all. No matter how she paddled, it was useless.
When paddling didn't work, she decided to try jumping out of the water, but she suddenly realized that she couldn't do it.
This is a very strange feeling. Her legs are not damaged at all. She can walk and run, but she can't jump.
She clearly gave instructions to her legs to bounce, and her legs clearly accepted the instructions. She even felt herself jumping up, but when she came to her senses the next moment, she was still standing where she was.
It's as if the concept of "jumping" has been deleted from this river.
She was startled by her own thoughts. Can such a conceptual thing be deleted or stripped away?
Unable to leave the black water river, she had no choice but to explore along the river. The river did not flow, and she could not tell the difference between upstream and downstream, so she could only find a random direction.
After walking out for an unknown amount of time, she discovered a dilapidated stone statue.
This stone statue is the same height as a real person. It is wearing armor and has a broad sword on its waist. It looks like a general, but most of the armor pieces have rotted and peeled off.
It's strange. Even if the stone statue is weathered and withered, it should be damaged randomly. How could the armor peel off?
Unless this was a human being whose armor peeled off first and then turned into a stone statue, there is no way to explain this phenomenon.
She then thought that if the stone statue was really a general during his lifetime, there might be clues on the sword.
As she spoke, she reached for the sword at the waist of the stone statue. However, as soon as her hand touched the hilt of the sword, the entire statue turned into dust and smoke.
The smoke and dust did not spread, and fell straight to the ground as if in a vacuum.
No, this stone statue is hollow!
Normally speaking, even if this stone statue of a person's height were turned into powder, it would at least be piled up into a mound of powder as high as the knees, and it would never be possible to leave only this thin stone powder that could not even be covered by the palm of one's hand.
The only explanation is that the stone statue was hollowed out.
She became a little nervous and took out the Splitting Light Breaking Night directly from the void, becoming highly alert.
No, in the past, I couldn't connect to the void at all, let alone take out the split light and break the night.
Could it be said that he is still in the real world and not in the time-stop space created by the jade bottle?
She moved her little finger and tried to contact Bai Qing.
Lin Xixue: "Maybe I received a message?"
Bai Qing: "Okay. Is there something unexpected that needs help?"
Lin Xixue: "The situation is controllable for the time being, no need to do anything."
Being able to communicate with Bai Qing normally without any delay means that the place where he is now is synchronized with the time in the real world, and there is no time stop.
That means that this space is probably not created by Jade Ping, but probably actually exists somewhere in the world.
She continued to explore cautiously, and there were more and more statues at the bottom of the river, including civil servants and military generals, but they were no different from the previous stone statues. They turned into stone powder after just a slight touch.
Everything was hollowed out from the inside!
Moving forward, the situation gradually changed slightly, and a vague sound of wailing came from the front.
Lin Xixue continued to explore the source of the wailing sound, and was horrified when she saw the source of the wailing sound.
I saw a group of people dressed as civil servants and military generals. Their upper bodies were still flesh and blood, but their lower bodies were made of stone growing together with the river bed, forming a chimera of flesh and stone statues.
I don’t know if the stone statue gave birth to flesh and blood, or if the flesh and blood turned into the stone statue.
In the abdominal cavities of these people, there seemed to be oval-shaped creatures swimming under the skin. During the swimming process, they did not forget to feast.
"kill me"
"Who's going to kill me?"
Lin Xixue held a knife on guard and stepped forward to ask, "Who are you and where are you?"
However, it was as if these people couldn't hear her and didn't give any response. They just repeated the previous wailing in their mouths.
Have they lost their minds, or have their voices and presence been blocked?
"Ah-ahhhhhh-"
Not far behind him, a man dressed as a Confucian scholar let out a shrill wail, and his whole body began to turn to stone quickly, turning into a stone statue in just a few breaths.
Not long after, oval-shaped worms crawled out of the stone statue's mouth and burrowed into other people's bodies.
The whole body of this worm is covered with thorn-shaped protrusions. From a distance, it looks like a sea cucumber. But upon closer inspection, it is clear that the protrusions are half of a human body reduced countless times.
Each thorn is half a person's body, and this half of the body can still move. It keeps holding the surface of the sea cucumber with its hands, trying to pull itself out and break away from the sea cucumber.
But no matter how hard this half of the body struggled, it was naturally impossible to have any effect.
As a result, you can see various expressions on the back of sea cucumbers - despair, crying, anger, or loss of consciousness.
But without exception, they were all tightly bound inside the sea cucumber's body and could never be freed.
More than ten sea cucumbers crawled out of the stone statue's mouth one after another and crawled towards different people, but no sea cucumber crawled towards her.
Except for these civil servants and generals, these sea cucumbers did not seem to be aware of her presence.
Just when she was confused, the jade bottle that had been floating behind her finally reacted.
