"That would be terrible news. To be honest, this is the worst secret room we've ever had, because at this rate, we'll probably be drowned to death by the blood cistern water in half an hour."
Zhang Ziyuan actually used such a calm and collected tone to tell me such a terrifying thing!
"Actually, there's only one possibility left in this situation …" I said nervously.
Zhang Ziyuan looked at me suspiciously.
"In other words, the mechanism to open the door is very likely real. The bottom of the blood pool …"
I suddenly felt that the person who built this tower wasn't a good person, otherwise how could he build a pool of blood made from the blood and limbs of living people so funnily? Furthermore, with so many mechanisms that could kill people, it wasn't something that a person with a clear conscience like Senior Yao Guang could do.
"Then, what should we do?" Yue Feng was quite brave. Other than being afraid of fire, he had not discovered any other weaknesses.
"Of course it's down there that's on, but I don't know how to swim!" I didn't intend to shirk my responsibilities. I really didn't know how to play, let alone dive into the water. Even if it wasn't a blood pool but a clear lake, I would drown if I went down.
"Then I'll go down. We Southerners know how to swim, so I'll go down to check if there's anything wrong with the water. I'll tell you if there's anything wrong with the water. You tell me how to activate the mechanism before I go down!"
As Yue Feng said this, he began to take off his clothes and shoes. He guessed that such a strange cistern water wouldn't even be able to take his clothes once it was brought up.
"Yue Feng, are you alright?"
"I can swim without a problem. Don't worry, if there really is something underwater, with my speed and speed, I'll probably be able to escape. Don't worry."
After saying that, Yue Feng did not hesitate, and jumped down with a "Putong".
I felt that I had truly let Yue Feng down. Jumping into such a terrifying pool of blood, and even going down to look for the mechanism, I felt that even if I knew water, I still might not be able to make this decision.
"Wife, what do you think is the situation below?"
"I can't say, but I'm afraid there will be something down there. If that's the case, then Yue Feng will probably suffer a loss down there."
"Why don't I go down as well …"
"I also feel that Yue Feng might not be able to handle this by himself …" But when I thought about how Zhang Ziyuan also had to jump into such a disgusting pond, my heart started to feel conflicted. After all, I was often close with him, cough cough.
Forget it, the bigger picture is more important.
"Hmm, wait a minute, are you sure you can swim?"
"I'm a ghost, so I don't need to breathe. It won't be a problem for me to dive into the sea." Before Zhang Ziyuan finished speaking, he also jumped down.
I was the only one left on the shore, feeling even more obedient. I suddenly had a thought, what if both of them are unable to make it up and there's only me alone? How can I …
F * ck me! What kind of idea was this! They would definitely be able to complete the mission perfectly.
After waiting for a while, there was still no movement from below. The cistern water was already at the ankle, and it felt extremely cold and uncomfortable.
I started to get anxious and kept looking in. He looked at the blood that was boiling inside, hoping for someone to hurry up and come up.
After waiting for a while longer, there was finally movement. Yue Feng rushed out of the pool of blood, his entire body seemed to have been dyed red by the blood, it was extremely scary.
"What about next?" It must have been hard on them to dive in such a disgusting place.
Yue Feng came out and stuck his head out as well, "There is indeed a monster down there, it is a strange fish, but it has already been taken care of by the two of us, and the current situation is that there is indeed a mechanism down there, but it needs to be arranged smoothly, so the two of us don't know how to remove it at all?"
"Don't be in such a hurry, speak slowly. Let me tell you what kind of trap it is. I'll tell you how to activate it."
After listening to Yue Feng's narration, it turned out that it wasn't really a difficult arrangement. I told him two plans, and one of them would eventually be opened.
Sigh, this underwater mechanism is troublesome. If the people who came in were all landlubbers, they wouldn't even know how to swim, wouldn't that mean they wouldn't be able to get out?
By this time, the blood was already close to my knees. Thinking that there were still two more people fighting desperately underwater, I decided to endure such a disgusting matter as well.
Not long later, the door opened. Because there was space, the blood flowed out and the bone-chilling, ice-cold feeling was finally gone.
When we came out safely, I felt very touched.
"Are you all right?" I rushed to support two people, but was stopped by Zhang Ziyuan.
"Wife, please don't come over!" We're all too dirty, and the smell is too strong, so stay away from us. "
I was very touched that she was still taking care of my feelings at this time.
"Hurry up and come up. We need to leave this place as soon as possible. I think that the cistern water are still increasing. It's better to hurry and block this secret room."
The smell of Zhang Ziyuan and Yue Feng could no longer get close, the way they were dyed red with blood was also terrifying.
"I reckon they thought something happened to us when the two of you went out."
Originally, Zhang Ziyuan had a handsome but evil looking face. Adding to the blood on his body, he felt that everyone who saw him would be scared.
"Behind this door is probably the top floor."
"Zhang Ziyuan, are you sure?"
"If my guess is right, the whole structure of this building should be spiral-shaped. It's not what we felt from the inside."
Indeed, there was something wrong with Zhang Ziyuan's words. I realized that we didn't go straight up the stairs, but had gone in a few circles.
When he opened it again, the space inside was even smaller.
However, the decoration of this secret room was surprisingly simple and elegant. It didn't have the extravagance of a banquet nor the terror of other floors. It was like a quiet study where the students lived.
There was even a beautiful portrait of an ancient beauty on the wall.
"As expected, he is already at the top …" I said to myself.
"How do you know?"
"It's just a kind of feeling. I think this is the so-called sixth sense of a woman."
"Then the Fusang Yin Yang Master has not arrived yet, can we be considered victorious?" Yue Feng asked.
"It's hard to say. The competition between us is the victory of the one who takes over the highest level first. However, we don't know how we can be considered to have taken over the highest level."
I had originally thought that the top floor would be like the Ghost Tower, with a type of ghost that was hard to deal with.
However, the situation now was such that there wasn't even a shadow of a soul. How could it be considered occupied?
I looked around to see if there were any other mechanisms, but I found that there were none. Nothing could be touched.
"There are no more traps, it seems like this proves that Zhang Ziyuan's previous deduction is correct."
"Look, this beauty flower even has a bit of cinnabar between her eyebrows. She's really extremely beautiful!"
Yue Feng stood still in front of the portrait of the beauty and carefully admired it. It was so lifelike that it looked like a real person.
No one knew which dynasty this beauty came from, but she was wearing a red dress and had a head full of praises. Her gentle and quiet temperament was like a piece of paper.
"Yue Feng, what's wrong?" However, the more Zhang Ziyuan looked at Yue Feng, the more he felt that something was wrong.
"Ah?" What happened to him? " I looked at Yue Feng, and indeed, my eyes were captivated by the beauty's painting, I was completely stunned, and looked like I was possessed.
I patted Yue Feng's shoulder forcefully when he stood in front of me, only then did he come back to his senses, and looked at me with a stupefied expression: "Miss Su Su, what's wrong?"
"What's wrong? Are you engrossed in the painting? "
Yue Feng looked at me as if he didn't know what I was doing: "I, I don't know, I seemed to have lost consciousness just now, and I don't know what I'm doing."
This is bad. From the looks of it, this painting is really evil. I must not look at it.
"Yue Feng, listen to me, I think there's something wrong with this painting, it's best not to look at her again!"
"But the girl in the painting is really beautiful …"
Damn, why are all men like this? Just like this when you see beautiful girls. The problem is, this is just a portrait!
I turned my head around to take a look, intending to clearly see where this woman's looks were. I didn't expect that I would be attracted by her gaze and freeze on the spot.
It was as if the beauty in the painting had truly intimidated my heart, causing me to not want to look away.
Zhang Ziyuan who was at the side seemed to be uninterested in the beauty painting. He quickly activated his technique and pointed to the portrait of the beauty.
As expected, after the painting was hit with the magic, it started to become restless and the entire wall started to tremble along with the painting.
"What happened?" He probably knew that he was also confused by the painting. It seems like there must be a problem that a woman like him could be infected by the painting.
When I woke up, I added more strength and cast a five-point spell. The scroll couldn't hold on any longer, and a living person came out of the painting.
I was shocked and hid to the side. I looked up and saw that the girl in the painting had actually walked down from her painting. Her appearance and clothes made her expression look normal.
"Who, who are you? Immortals in paintings? " I blurted out.
"Don't be a foolish wife. If it really is a fairy, then why would there be demonic techniques to harm people? He is only a ghost in the painting."
What, such a beautiful girl is actually a ghost? The demons I've seen are mostly ugly and disgusting, and this kind of beautiful girl is the first one I've met.
"If I'm not wrong, this lady should be the vengeful spirit locked in this painting. She hasn't been able to get free for hundreds of years and has even been hidden in this dark and gloomy Ghost Tower. What a misfortune."
Zhang Ziyuan seemed to understand the origins of this ghost in the painting.
That beauty was still as delicate as ever, and anyone who saw her would feel pity for her. "That's right, I'm just a vengeful spirit, what mistake did I have? I've been trapped here for so many years, and no one has come here in such a long time. I'm very lonely by myself!"
"Actually, I quite understand you, but it's your fault that you used demonic techniques to harm us."
"I did not harm you!"
Actually, from the moment Zhang Ziyuan and I forced him out the portrait, I already knew where this beauty came from.
"You're still saying that you didn't want to harm us? Of course, you can use the Soul Absorbing Technique to absorb all of our souls and also trap ourselves in this painting. At that time, we'll be just like you, forever trapped here."
Zhang Ziyuan looked at me in shock. He didn't expect me to know about this technique.
"Then I also did it to make you accompany me forever! For such a long time, not a single ghost had appeared. It was not easy to get a few people here, so of course I had to grab hold of them! Even though my methods might be a bit underhanded, I truly wish to have someone to accompany me. "
