Half-life immortal

Chapter 82 The Way of Life in a Dead End, Climbing the Sky Tower
Xu Shili was noncommittal to his statement, and turned to Zhu Pei'er and said, "Does Princess Pei'er know where that is?"

Zhu Pei'er was immediately embarrassed, and said: "I know, I know. Uncle once told me that there is a place that is very dangerous, and even he dare not set foot in it. I can also feel that there is a faint speed of Yin Qi flowing out there. , should be one of the pathways to the outside world.”

Xu Shili clasped his fists in salute and said, "I hope the princess will give me some advice."

It stands to reason that Zhu Pei'er would not refuse their request, but Zhu Pei'er really thought it was too dangerous there, and said: "But...uncle said that he would die if he went to the Sky Tower by himself, and you are even more..."

Uncle Wu Gui once told her this very solemnly, and she firmly believed in it. Even a strong man like Uncle Wu Gui who survived the catastrophe period would die in danger, so how could they pass safely?
Xu Shili pleaded again: "Princess Pei'er, this is the only way now, Xu is willing to give it a try for all the younger brothers and sisters. If it is really impossible, I will judge the situation and return it myself."

Hearing what he said, Zhu Peier reluctantly agreed: "Well, that place is called the Ascend to Heaven Pagoda. Go out from the north of the Giant Spirit Ancient City and enter the Mangcang Mountain Range. If you go about a thousand miles northward, you will see a very tall tower. The tower, there is the Ascension Tower. I have never entered it, I only watched it from a distance, and I always feel that there is something terrible inside."

Xue Qinglan remained silent. She believed in Zhu Peier's judgment. Since she said it was very dangerous, it meant that most of them would not be able to leave there. However, what Xu Shili said was also reasonable. It is too dangerous in the middle of the road, since this is a clear way, so I will not be reconciled if I don't try it.

Feng Yutian didn't say a word, the thought in his heart was similar to that of Xue Qinglan, and as far as he knew, this absolute path was usually a dead end carefully set up by the ghost clan master who created the Yin Ruins, if this path is not dead, then There is no safety guarantee in the Yin Ruins. May I ask which Yang ghost would not consider the people?

While speaking, Zhu Pei'er drew on the map with her finger, showing them all the passages leading to the north city gate.Now they are located at the southern end of the ancient city of Juling. To get to the north gate, they have to traverse the entire underground of the ancient city of Juling. Not to mention the long distance, the risks involved are even more unpredictable.

However, there are risks left and right, and their psychological tolerance has also been strengthened. To put it bluntly, dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water. Now that they are all here, they are not afraid of walking a little longer. Maybe Yang Gui can't think of them. Will give up the near and seek the far, and go to the most impossible path.

Zhu Peier led them all the way forward, trying to avoid the sun ghosts that they would meet on the road, but there were too many sun ghosts here, it was impossible to avoid them all, and the sun ghosts still found their tracks after all!

They ran all the way, but more and more Yang ghosts followed, and soon there was nowhere to go.They hid at a corner, Xu Shili carefully observed the other side, and found that a lot of Yang ghosts were approaching, he shook his head to the people behind him, indicating that the road was blocked.

Zhao Yunhu at the back of the palace also noticed that the pursuers were about to catch up, and said anxiously in a low voice: "What should we do? There is no way out? We can only choose one direction and forcefully fight out."

Zhu Pei'er suggested: "How about I try to lure them away? You take this opportunity to leave quickly?"

Xu Shili vetoed: "No, once you go out they will know we are here."

"Then..." Zhu Pei'er had no other choice, and her forehead was sweating in anxiety.

Everyone couldn't help but fell silent, but there was not much time left for them. The pursuers were getting closer and closer, and they would soon discover the detour where they were hiding.

Liang Boshan looked gloomy, looked at Zhu Pei'er unkindly, and said, "There is another way, as long as we use this Yanggui princess as a shield, we won't be afraid that Yanggui won't give way!"

Xue Qinglan shielded Zhu Pei'er behind her without thinking, and said, "Senior Brother Liang, are you serious?"

Even though Liang Boxan is her nominal senior brother, and Zhu Pei'er is a foreign ghost, theoretically speaking, she should not hesitate to stand on Liang Boxan's side, but in fact her reaction is just the opposite.She has known Liang Boxan for less than a day in total, so she doesn't have any feelings for him, not to mention she doesn't like this guy when she sees him. For the sake of reluctantly walking with him.In fact, Zhu Pei'er's status in her heart is much higher, even ten Liang Boshan can't compare.

Liang Boxan was also displeased with her attitude, and said: "Junior Sister Xue, now that the enemy is at hand, Junior Sister should take care of the overall situation. My suggestion is the best, besides, she is just a ghost, so what if she sacrifices a little?"

Zhu Pei'er didn't know what he was going to do to her, so she hid behind Xue Qinglan in fear.

Xue Qinglan was still loyal, and the friends she identified would not betray her easily, she said: "Liang Boshan, Pei'er just saved our lives, how could you say such a thing? So what about the Yang ghost? Could it be that she is not alive? Why don't you sacrifice yourself first if you want to sacrifice her?"

She was very angry, and even called Liang Boshan by his first name, instead of calling him senior brother in a fake way, but because she was surrounded by enemies, she didn't dare to speak too loudly, and deliberately controlled her volume and anger.

Liang Boxan refused to accept it, and said: "A woman's benevolence, I'm not trying to kill her, but to take advantage of her status. Compared with the lives of us present or her dignity, which one is more important?"

He originally thought that these words could make Xue Qinglan speechless, but he didn't know that Xue Qinglan was just a hob meat, and she didn't take this kind of thing at all. Instead, he said straightforwardly: "Is dignity not important? Then you now Take off your clothes and go out and run three laps in front of Yang Gui, and I'll see which one is more important, your life or your dignity."

According to Xue Qinglan's personality, dignity is a dish, right?What is more important than a small life?But this refers to herself. When the angle is changed to her good friend Zhu Peier, and the person who is speaking is Liang Boshan, whom she dislikes very much, her words are naturally aimed at Zhu Peier, even if it is unreasonable, she should take it for granted!

"you--!"

Liang Boshan was so angry that he pointed at Xue Qinglan's nose, looking like he was about to have a seizure.

Xu Shili hurried out to smooth things over, and said, "Stop arguing, Junior Brother Liang, now is not the time to mess yourself up. Junior Sister Xue, please don't say a few words. Princess Pei'er is kind to us, so naturally we won't use her without authorization. , please relax."

He is the highest seniority among the crowd, and he is also the one who speaks the most authoritatively. Everyone, including Xue Qinglan, must treat him with some disrespect.Liang Boshan turned his head angrily, temporarily dismissing it.It wasn't that Xue Qinglan didn't know what to do, she just went down a step, nodded her head and didn't pursue further.

Xu Shili said: "Now time is running out, we still have to find a way to break through, instead of complaining and quarreling with each other. The more we are in this kind of time, the more we have to work together to overcome the difficulties, so that there is a glimmer of hope."

Yulian, who had always looked sluggish, recovered a little at this time. Apart from being unable to fight with others, she was able to move normally without any hindrance, and she silently listened to everyone's discussion.

Feng Yutian saw that her expression was slightly better, and said in a low voice: "Junior Sister Yulian, how do you feel now? If you want to break through in a while, can you still hold on?"

Seeing that Feng Yutian rarely cared about her, Yulian cheered up and said with a sweet heart, "It's okay."

To put it bluntly, Yulian was very beautiful. At this time, her face was pale, but she also had a different kind of beauty. In short, no matter what she was doing, she was beautiful, and Xue Qinglan couldn't compare to it.Of course, Xue Qinglan is a bit heartless in this regard, and she has never compared herself with others. She even rejoices that she has an ordinary appearance. As the saying goes, if she is not for her ordinary appearance, she does not know how much trouble she will get into.

Xue Qinglan didn't even notice the conversation between Feng Yutian and Yulian, she was seriously looking at the parchment map in her hand.She hugged the map and thought hard, and suddenly said: "Pei'er, you said that there are several layers here, and the map is drawn separately. If they are put together, it should mean that this place is layer by layer?"

Because the underground passages of the Djinn Castle are too complicated, the parchment map Zhu Peier gave her cannot cover all the routes with a single map, but the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth floors of the underground The route is drawn on five maps, which is more clear.

Zhu Pei'er nodded and said, "That's right, we have come to the third floor from the fifth floor, we should see... this picture!"

She pointed to one of the drawings on the map, which showed the location of the third floor.

Xue Qinglan knocked on the ground, listened carefully to the sound, and could vaguely hear some echoes, she was convinced of her guess immediately, and said: "Look, Pei'er, according to the map, our feet happen to be in line with the fourth floor. A stone chamber is connected, and the soil layer here is not too thick, if the ground is smashed through, can we find another way out?"

Originally Xu Shili was ready to break through, but after hearing Xue Qinglan's suggestion, he suppressed it and said, "If that's the case, it would be a good strategy."

He didn't doubt Xue Qinglan's judgment, on the contrary, he showed great trust. He didn't even confirm the map again. One person jumped down.

Xue Qinglan was stunned to herself, thinking that Xu Shili's sword energy was so powerful, the distance between the third and fourth layers was at least a few feet deep, and he used the sword energy to penetrate the layers without blinking, and he did it well So silent, this control is not easy.

He probed a little, but he didn't feel the breath of the Yang ghost below, nor heard any other noises, so it should be safe to come down here.He greeted everyone briefly, and then he was the first to jump off from here, without delay.

Xue Qinglan admired his style of conduct, and gradually realized that he was not the kind of young man with upturned nostrils before she could get to know him objectively.Perhaps it was because Xu Shili accepted her proposal without hesitation, and she couldn't help feeling a little bit fond of him.

Everyone jumped down from here and returned to somewhere on the fourth floor.However, this does not mean that they are safe. On the contrary, those Yang ghosts who were about to find them just now will definitely find the hole where they escaped soon, and then follow them. They must leave as soon as possible.

Xu Shili said to Xue Qinglan: "Junior Sister Xue, I have an idea, can you lend me the map for a while?"

"Okay." Xue Qinglan still believed in him in her heart, and handed him the map.The route here is too complicated, if you don't hold a map in your hand, you can't remember the way at all.The people present were not ordinary people, but they did not have a photographic memory. Even Zhu Pei'er, who was most familiar with this place, couldn't remember all the passages in the ancient city of giant spirits, let alone others.

Zhao Yunhu said: "Brother Xu, what method did you think of?"

"I came up with this under Junior Sister Xue's suggestion. Since this place is already so complicated, why don't we make it more complicated to confuse the public."

He smiled slightly at Xue Qinglan. Xue Qinglan was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say, but Zhao Yunhu agreed, "Okay, let's make a big fuss."

They made up their minds and began to wreak havoc along the roads. As long as they could build roads, they would definitely create two or three interconnected places. Most of the gaps are used to confuse the pursuers behind, and it seems to be very effective. Sure enough, no one can catch up with them for a while.

Afterwards, they came to a large hall lined with stone pillars. Although it was underground, it was extremely magnificent. After comparing it with the map in their hands, they realized that this place was already close to the center of the ancient city of Giant Spirits. That is to say, they were about Across half of the ancient city of giant spirits.

However, their luck seemed to be exhausted, because not long after they stepped here, the old voice of the five ghosts came from behind them.

"Little dolls go far enough."

Everyone was shocked, and Zhao Yunhu, who was originally in charge of the rear, broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly drew his long sword and looked around.

Zhu Pei'er was even more frightened, and hugged Xue Qinglan in a panic, and Xue Qinglan also hugged her back, looking around for the figure of Uncle Wu Gui.

Feng Yutian fought with him for a while, he was more familiar with his aura, and with a slight frown, he sensed the hiding place of Wu Guibo, pointed his sword at the shadow of the stone pillar not far away, and shouted: "There."

When he breathed out luckily, a gleam of light shot towards the point he was pointing at his fingertips, which was the sword energy emanating from his fingertips.

With a soft "ding", his sword energy seemed to hit an invisible wall in the air, and then disappeared in all directions. At the same time, the figure of the five ghosts also appeared. It turned out that he was hiding in the shadows.

Uncle Wugui was not surprised that he was discovered, his expression was calm, and needless to say, he waved out five little ghosts.The five little ghosts seemed to be angry this time, not as naughty as last time, but turned into five balls of light and slammed into them as soon as they came up!
