Chapter 21 Section 20

Da Zhang continued the conversation: "Okay man, your mouth is hard even when your legs are soft, someday you'll recover and I'll fight you one-on-one, brother, I'm not someone who takes advantage of others' danger!" "Hmph, after you know the truth, I'm afraid that your legs will be so weak that you won't even be able to stand up!" Shopkeeper Sui is a veteran in the battlefield, but for some reason, judging from the few times he's been in contact with him, this person seems to love fighting, whether it's his body or his mouth. , I even thought he was kind of cute.

"Shopkeeper Sui, let's open the skylight and tell the truth. What is the purpose of all your efforts to bring us here?" I don't want to play around with them anymore. Shopkeeper Sui glanced at Big Sister Hu: "Sister, take them to have a look, let them have a light in their hearts, be prepared, and know what we are going to face!" Several people came out of the cellar and came to the center of the yamen lobby. Sister Hu ordered the men on duty to prepare, saying that we were going to the forbidden area and we needed to coordinate several aspects. A few black-armored warriors who looked like children got the order, turned around and went out to make arrangements.

Da Zhang and I stood in the lobby, looking at the Lilliputian scene that only appeared in fairy tales, we were filled with emotion. After a while, the two girls took out some black armors that fit adults only, and Sister Hu asked us to put them on. Shopkeeper Sui held the black armor and sighed, "It's been 20 years, I never thought I'd wear it again." Dazhang and I naturally understand that the shopkeeper Sui must have been here 20 years ago, and he must know the secret here. It seems that this guy is going to tell us the secret. Shopkeeper Sui glanced at us: "Can you wear it?"

Da Zhang and I shook our heads. "Follow me to the side room, I will teach you!" The two of them followed Lao Sui into the side room, and after another toss, they finally put on the black armor. The armor was not made of metal, it was very light and tough, and it exuded the unique aroma of black mandala flowers. I don't know what material it is woven from. Shopkeeper Sui explained to us: "This is woven by the pupa silk of butterflies in the Daba mountain that specialize in devouring black mandala pollen. I dare not say that this can resist bullets, but ordinary cold weapons can definitely defend against it."

Dazhang and I finished wearing it and looked at each other. It fits very well and feels good. Da Zhang was very proud: "Shopkeeper Sui, it feels good to wear, do you think I'm a little bit like Zhao Zilong?" Shopkeeper Sui laughed aloud: "Damn! It's like a small shrimp. Don't be poor with me, hurry up, people are still waiting." "Oh, yes, you can say what you like, please, General Sui, please, General Liu." Da Zhang was not angry, and still had a playful smile on his face. When we came to the Yamen, Sister Hu asked us to exit the lobby. She clapped her hands twice at the door, and the floor of the entire lobby opened downwards, and a wide staircase spiraled down.

The floor of this yamen is actually made of bronze. I don't know how the ancients transported these materials here, and there is no time to think about it now. Before entering, Sister Hu deliberately left Xiaotian outside. Sister Hu said that Oda's blood did not match and she could not enter. Oda seemed to know Sister Hu quite well, so she didn't make a fuss to go in. This is not her style. The four of them entered the tunnel, descending a distance of more than ten meters, and there was another thick bronze floor. After the floor above their heads was closed, the floor in front of them gradually opened.

Passing through three floors in a row, both sides of the tunnel are full of dead children and strange roots, just like the tunnel we came from. Sister Hu explained: "These are our ancestors. When they die, they will choose Come here to feed the black mandala flowers, thousands of years of inheritance, no one knows how many lives are buried in this valley." I thought about it, what a strange ecological structure, flowers support people, and people support flowers, what makes these people so persistent and fanatical, is it guided by some unknown cult? When we finally reached the bottom of the pit, we were actually in a place like a huge viewing platform. It was so dark below that we couldn't see anything, but there were some tiny purple lights floating like fireflies.

At this time, our observation deck began to fall like an elevator. I really lamented the wisdom of my ancestors. There was such a wonderful design in the Xia and Shang Dynasties. Maybe history is really in the cycle of reincarnation. It is not clear how far we have fallen, but it is estimated that it must be at least 50 meters before we fall to the bottom of the pit. There are purple floating objects all around, which is very annoying. Da Zhang scratched the purple floating dust in front of his eyes: "Bah, what are these things?" Shopkeeper Sui was dissatisfied: "Keep your voice down! This is not a place for you to run wild!"

I pulled down the big sheet, it seems that it is not the time for the bustle, I obviously feel that the shopkeeper Sui and sister Hu have slowed down. Only then did Da Zhang hum and stop talking nonsense. All around the zenith suddenly lit up lights, the cave roof is full of large and small observation decks, and the little black warriors are already standing on it, the whole city seems to be facing a big enemy. Several people quickened their pace and walked a full thousand meters before reaching the center of the cave. The huge flower vines hovered from here. This place seemed to be the old nest of the black mandala flower, and the purple dust , It is emanating from the center of the flower vine.

I asked Sister Hu: "You just invite us to see this big flower vine? Could it be that you have been waiting for such a thing for thousands of years?" "No, for thousands of years, we have guarded this place together with this Huateng!" Shopkeeper Sui said: "Hmm. It seems to be a little smaller again. Come closer and take a look at the thing between the flowers and vines. Don't disturb it!" "Oh, the flower vine of emotion is still entangled with things." Taking a closer look, there was a lizard-like thing the size of a jeep wrapped around the flower vines. The skin of that thing was like a toad, lying there motionless.

Dazhang and I looked left and right, and we really couldn’t see anything weird. We’ve never seen this thing before, but even if it’s a ferocious beast, it can’t do such a big project. The more I think about it, the more I don’t understand it. . At this moment, that thing suddenly opened its eyes, blood-red eyes, when my eyes collided with its eyes, I suddenly felt a huge heat rushing straight to my nerves, and my whole body hurt like it was on fire !I grabbed Dazhang immediately, and shopkeeper Sui saw the change, and blocked me in one fell swoop. "Sister, come back, this thing seems to be quite unstable!" "Well, go back and discuss it!" Dazhang didn't dare to speak for a long time, so he helped me, and we returned the same way.The black-armored warriors on the zenith dumped a large number of black mandala petals, and the black petals and the purple floating dust complement each other, making the scene extremely strange. Several people returned to the yamen lobby. Da Zhang and I couldn’t figure it out. Your uncle, you are awesome. You have a secret. Nearly a thousand people guard such a big toad. Mother's pretense is a bit exaggerated, even if the jeep-sized toad is a bit powerful, there is no need to exaggerate to such a degree! A few people sat together, I was stimulated by that monster, and I was dazed by the side all the time. I explain clearly. Da Zhang clearly showed his contempt for Shopkeeper Sui and Sister Hu. Facing the seriousness of the two, he could only respond by picking his nose with his little finger, with a look of disdain. Oda sat aside silently, as if he didn't want to say anything.
