The Secret History of Xuanmen

Chapter 319 Open Your Eyes
Master, save me.

A cry for help rang in my ears. The voice didn't sound urgent. For a moment, I couldn't tell whether the other party was really in danger.

I subconsciously wanted to look in the direction of the sound, but just as I was about to open my eyes, I remembered Taishan's instructions. On the way to Thousand Machines City, you must not open your eyes, otherwise everyone will die.

Thinking of this, I quickly controlled my curiosity and pretended not to hear anything.

So I continued to move forward, and the cry for help didn't stop all the way. I thought it was an evil spirit bewitching me and ignored it.

In addition to this cry for help, I also heard a burst of animal roars.

The roars of these beasts are extremely captivating when heard. They are not like ordinary beasts outside. They are probably rare and extinct beasts in the outside world.

At this time, I was really curious about what kind of road we were walking on. It seemed that we had obviously left the desert, and it was more like entering a paradise.

I really don’t know how there is such a mysterious place in the vast desert. If I weren’t afraid of hurting everyone, I would really open my eyes and see what happens.

I didn't know how long I walked like this, but I felt like my feet were not moving, but my body was jolting, as if I was being carried forward.

I kept chanting the meditation mantra, trying to stabilize my mind and not be disturbed by the sounds around me, but I still felt a little powerless. My upper and lower eyelids kept fighting, and I was on the verge of opening my eyes.

And just when I felt like I couldn't resist the temptation, I suddenly realized something was wrong.

It stands to reason that my willpower in this team is, if not the first, then the second, at most not as good as Mount Tai. But why are Kelsang and Fatty able to avoid interference from the outside world? Until now, there have been no reports of any abnormalities, and there has been no change due to blindness. How about looking around and affecting everyone?

As soon as this thought came up, I immediately thought of the answer.

They must have set up their own ears and eyes from the beginning. No matter what noise is coming from the outside world, they can concentrate on it because they can't hear it at all.

But because I relied on my skill to be brave and wanted to test things out, I didn't do it. On the contrary, my cleverness led to my being misled by my cleverness.

Thinking of this, I immediately sealed my ears and stopped listening to every move from the outside world.

Sure enough, after he sealed his ears, those strange beast roars immediately disappeared.

I thought that after doing this, we would be able to reach Thousand Machine City smoothly.

What I didn't expect was that the beast's roar disappeared, but the cry for help became more and more real.

This cry for help is getting closer and closer to me, even as if it is whispering next to my ear.This sound is so pervasive that even if I block my hearing, it can still reach my ears.

I was confused, how could I still hear the sound even though my ears were sealed.

Could it be that the magic failed?But why didn't Kelsang and the others encounter this situation?

Just as I was wondering, I suddenly realized something. The voice didn't seem to be in my ears, but in Zhao Goucheng's ears.

So even if I seal my ears, I can still hear the cry for help, because the voice is addressed to the paper man Gou Sheng, and since we are actually one person, I can still hear it.

It’s really a close relationship. I have always been the center of attention along the way, but I didn’t pay attention to Gou Sheng’s side.

Thinking of this, I wanted to seal the remaining ears of the dog.Although he does not have a strong Qi machine, he can still perform simple Yin and Yang techniques.

However, at this critical moment, when I was controlling him and preparing to perform the technique, the cry for help suddenly became louder, almost roaring in Gou Sheng's ears.

At the same time, 'my' body was shaking violently, as if it was about to be shaken to the ground.

At this moment, the remaining 'I' of the paper man opened his eyes instinctively.

I thought to myself that it was not good. I didn’t expect that my dual identity had helped me so much since I entered Xuanmen. At this moment, the boat capsized in the gutter.

'I' quickly closed my eyes and thought about making amends.

However, before I closed my eyes, I saw a scene that made my hair stand on end.

I saw that we were not moving forward by ourselves at this time. We were lying on the backs of big snakes. They were carrying us forward, so I felt like we were swimming before.

This is not an ordinary snake, but a snake man with a human face and a snake body.

Snake people are not scary. I have heard of them in many Taoist unofficial histories.

What scares me is that the faces of these snake people are actually our own.

We are carrying ourselves and crawling all the way. This scene is really weird.
