C162 The Fragrance of the Rose

Zuo Xiping said with a grin on his face. " Just like what the Alliance Master said, the solution to this palace is very obvious. As long as we send a few more teams in and activate the mechanism, the people outside will be able to see the changes inside. "

Everyone nodded, but none of them wanted to be the test subject of this matter. Everyone unconsciously took a few steps back, and some even hid their heads behind the person in front of them.

Zuo Xiping quickly explained. "Although the structure of this palace is strange, it definitely doesn't have the ability to hurt people. Its only function is to delay time and prevent us from entering. If it can hurt people, then why didn't those fifty to sixty people shout out when they were injured? "

Murong Ke also quickly said," This way, each sect master will choose two disciples and we will form four teams. This way, we will definitely be able to crack the mechanism. "

No one was willing to do this, but the probability of each person being selected was the same. Many of the people who were chosen were even scared to the point of losing control of their lower bodies. However, there was no other way. Since they had chosen to be swordsmen, they had to face the difficulties.

The true courage was not to act without fear, but rather. . . Even though he was afraid, he still had to do it. The first team had around 30 people, They slowly stepped into the mystical palace. There was no change in the palace. They walked step by step towards the bottom of the stairs. The torch became dimmer and dimmer until they reached a certain place. Their torches were extinguished almost at the same time. Two stone slabs suddenly flew out from the left and right sides of these people.

These two stone slabs happened to be able to form an entire piece of ground, and those people from before didn't even have the chance to shout before they disappeared into the darkness. Zuo Xiping sucked in a breath of cold air. He had seen everything clearly. It was definitely not the change that he had described. This palace could eat people!

Murong Ke seemed to have noticed the strangeness in the palace, but he only felt that it was a normal thing. Therefore, he called for the second group of people to set off. The second group of people consisted of more than 30 people. The torches in their hands were trembling slightly. Their footsteps became even more cautious.

When they reached the stone slab where the first team had disappeared, a miracle seemed to have happened. This team was actually fine, everyone finally let out a sigh of relief. They continued forward along the stone slab. This place seemed to be at the bottom, but they were clear that what they were stepping on was actually a secret room.

When they reached the other end of the stone slab, someone shouted in this direction twice. However, the people outside could no longer see them. They did not know that when they were walking on the stone slab, they had already gradually disappeared from their line of sight.

They desperately shouted towards the outside. Some people even wanted to rush back, but there was already an additional wall behind them. A transparent wall. This wall came in a very strange way. It was unknown which direction it came from, because it was transparent. So when it appeared, it didn't attract anyone's attention.

The wall was very thick, so the soundproofing was very good. No matter how they shouted, they could not hear anything from outside. Moreover, the people outside would definitely not see the people behind the transparent wall, because they were too far away.

Another group of people disappeared. This time, Zuo Xiping did not even see any traces of them. This was really inconceivable. Murong Ke wanted to send out a third group of people, but was stopped by Zuo Xiping. "I think it's not appropriate to send someone down at this time. This might be a bottomless pit. "

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. A bottomless pit had actually happened in real life. Murong Ke's expression had changed. He seemed to be a little angry because Zuo Xiping didn't accept his order and refuted him. This was a great humiliation to a leader.

However, what Zuo Xiping said made sense. If this continued, no matter how many people there were, it would not be enough to fill this bottomless hole. But what should he do now? Could it be that they would give up on all the people who had disappeared and retreat in a sorry state?

Murong Ke wasn't willing to give up. Not only was he unwilling to give up, even those who followed him weren't willing to give up either, especially those disciples who were trapped in this bottomless pit. They were even more unwilling to leave like this.

Everyone placed their hopes on Zuo Xiping. Zuo Xiping kept sighing and shaking his head. He was still searching for ways to solve this problem, but he still couldn't find a way to solve it.

At this moment, someone suggested. "Damn it. I saw that the bird building was so evil. I might as well tear it down to avoid making us afraid. "

Zuo Xiping's eyes lit up for a moment. That's right. The reason why these mechanisms could be implemented was because of their cooperation. If the surface of the palace was removed, these mechanisms would no longer be effective. This way, things would be much easier!

If they wanted to do it, they would do it. The more people, the greater the strength. Each and every one of them rubbed their fists and began to make their move on the palace. They all had sabers in their hands. In just an hour, the palace had been completely destroyed by them. There were debris everywhere, and wood was everywhere.

Zuo Xiping couldn't help but sigh in admiration for this exquisite palace. These people didn't know anything. Apart from destroying it, they wouldn't pay attention to anything else. They didn't notice that while they were demolishing the palace, the palace itself was also changing.

The internal structure of the palace had undergone a huge change, perhaps due to their actions being too fast. However, from the looks of it now, the palace that had been demolished was like a piece of wood that had been basked in the sun. It was clear at a glance.

The third group of people rushed over. They were full of confidence. If something were to happen under their noses, then they wouldn't have to come here. More than thirty people were majestic and fearless. Their footsteps seemed to be much firmer than the previous two groups.

When they arrived at the center of the palace, they laughed and waved their hands behind them. The people outside also saw this scene and cheered in high spirits. Murong Ke heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed like they had passed this trial.

However, just as they were feeling happy, an accident happened again. The palace itself hadn't changed. Instead, it had changed into the palace of thirty people. These people seemed to have suddenly gone crazy and crashed into the four walls. Each of them was bleeding profusely, but they had never thought of giving up. They only stopped at the moment of death.

The smiles of the people outside had already frozen on their faces. There was no expression on their faces, only fear. What on earth happened? Could it be that there really was a so-called devil in this palace?

Some timid people had already touched the passage back, and one of their feet had already stepped into the passage. Those sect masters all wanted to go down and bring back their disciples' corpses but were stopped.

Under such circumstances, if there were still people going down, that would be a real big fool. Murong Ke wasn't a fool. He knew that if he continued to wear them down, they would all die here sooner or later.

It was obvious that this was a trap set up by the devil religion. It was a trap. As for where to start? It was a trap. He had no idea. Perhaps Nalan Kang had already started this trap the moment he switched sides.

Elder Xiao was collecting the rose flowers that he had planted in the garden with great interest. The rose flowers were bright in color, and the fragrance of the flowers was tempting. This was a flower that many people liked. Elder Xiao was no exception. However, he didn't like the roses because they were beautiful. And it wasn't because these flowers were fragrant. It was because they had thorns.

This was a very strange flower in nature, a type of flower that naturally had defense. Rose's fragrance and beauty were tempting factors, but those thorns were the key to hurting people.

If you can't resist the temptation, then you might be stabbed. Elder Xiao had never been stabbed before. He was very satisfied with this, because he knew how each leaf of these flowers grew.

As long as he knew the nature of things, those seemingly difficult problems would no longer be a problem. Although thorns could stab many people, they would never stab someone who understood them.

Elder Xiao trimmed the flowers for a while. The people outside the garden had already stood for a long time. That youth was only thirteen or fourteen years old, but the coldness on his face made him several years older.

The young man was expressionless. He was wearing a black linen robe unique to the Devil Cult, and there were two large pockets on both sides of his clothes. The pockets were filled with food, but there was not much left.

He was the messenger. There was a letter hidden in the young man's arms. His hands were hanging low, but he had never relaxed for more than half an hour, because this letter came from a person. And this person's letter could never have any problems on the road.

After a long time, Elder Xiao wiped his sweat and placed the scissors on the stone platform in front of the courtyard wall. He fetched a bucket of well water and took the towel from the servant. He dipped it into the well water and slowly wiped his face.

"Come in. " Elder Xiao seemed to have known that this person was standing outside the door. But only now did he call him in. The youth looked around to see if there was any dirt on his body, and after tidying up, he quickly walked into the courtyard.

The fragrance of Rose assaulted his nose. Rose flowers were everywhere on both sides of the small path in the courtyard. There was only a small long path that he could walk on. The young man had never been here before, but he knew that as long as he walked along this road, he would be able to find that person.

Unfortunately, he was wrong. He would never be able to find that man. At the end of the rose, there was a small house. In front of the house, there were all kinds of tools for farming. There were hoes, plows, and a small stone table beside the wooden bucket. On the stone table were scissors, kitchen knives, hammers, and so on.

The young man sized up the wooden barrel. The surface of the barrel was old, but the copper wire that was wrapped around the outer ring was very new. He did not see any copper or green at all. The young man took a few steps forward, and a strange smell rushed into his nose. It came from the wooden bucket.

The youth covered his nose. At this time, he heard Elder Xiao's voice, "Did your Mistress bring a letter?" The youth nodded. "Yes, I have always kept Master's letter in my bosom. "

Elder Xiao smiled and said, "Could it be that you haven't opened it and read it?" The young man was slightly stunned. "Never read it. The letter is for you. I won't read it. "

Elder Xiao nodded his head in satisfaction. "It seems that the matter has been settled?" The youth did not reply. He knew that since he had never read this letter, he would not know whether the matter had been completed or not. He should not even know what this matter was referring to.

After a long time, Elder Xiao sighed slightly and said: "You are a smart child. I will not let you stay here today. Put the letter down and you can go back "

The youth nodded. He took out the letter from his bosom, but he did not know where to place it. After he stayed in place for a while, he asked, "Who should I give the letter to?"

There was no reply, and cold sweat broke out on the youth's forehead. He slightly turned his head and found that there was no longer a path behind him. He circled around like a madman, but no matter how he tried, he could not find another way out. He could only brace himself and walk through the flowers.

The roses were fragrant, the roses were beautiful, and the roses were piercing. The thorns were like needles that pierced his body until he was covered in wounds. He gritted his teeth and still wanted to walk forward, but there was only despair and despair in front of him.

The youth gave up on the direction he was heading in and returned to the small house. He discovered that his body was covered in bloody wounds, and there were even Rose Spikes in the depths of the wounds. These rose thorns seemed to be a bit more special than ordinary rose thorns, because these thorns definitely couldn't be pulled out by hand.

The young man struggled, and the wounds on his body became more and more painful. He looked around and saw kitchen knives, scissors, and hammers. He grabbed the kitchen knife with one hand. He aimed the knife tip at the Rose Thorn on the wound and slowly gouged it out.

After a scream, the young man fainted. The Rose Thorn came out, but it came out together with the Rose Thorn. There was also a large piece of meat. This was the youth's flesh. He never thought that this thorn would actually stab into his body.

The youth seemed to have lost all hope of survival, but he would never be able to endure this kind of pain. There was a pile of white powder in the wooden barrel, and the wound was bleeding. He gritted his teeth and took out a handful of powder from the barrel and sprinkled it on the wound.

The blood had already stopped, and the youth let out a sigh of relief. However, the pain had never disappeared, and there were thorns all over his body. He could only gouge them out one by one, and gouge out the flesh. When he gouged out the blood, he would use the white powder to stop it.

However, he had never thought about what exactly these white powder were. When he gouged out the last thorn, there was practically not a single part of his body that was still intact. There were white patches everywhere. He laid in front of the stone platform, still expressionless. He suddenly remembered that letter.

The letter was still there, but he had never read it before. Rather than dying like that, he might as well open it and take a look. This letter was sealed tightly, and as long as it was opened, it would definitely be discovered.

The youth didn't care about much and opened the letter. The letter was a brand new Luoyang Xuan paper, and it was folded three times. The moment the youth opened the letter, he was completely stunned. This letter was actually blank!
