Chapter 314 The Door (Part 1)
The figure that descended from the sky was very vigorous, and the body in the air turned over and stood firmly on the ground.
This is a woman with a somewhat embarrassed face and half of her dress has been damaged. She will not be more than twenty-five years old.
He has long brown hair and pupils of the same color, and holds a short sword in his hand, with blood stains and gaps left by chopping on it.
Just looking at this dagger, Kieran could imagine what kind of bitter fight the opponent had gone through.
While Kieran was massaging the opponent, when the opponent saw Qin Ran, she took two steps back vigilantly, and took a defensive posture with the hand holding the dagger.
"Who are you?"
The other party asked.
Qin Ran didn't answer, but looked up.
A hole big enough for one person appeared in the ceiling.
"A door through which the assassins come and go?"
Qin Ran, who was guessing, was ready to find out.
"That's a dead end!"
The woman who saw Qin Ran's intention reminded Qin Ran, but when she saw Qin Ran continue to jump up, the woman couldn't help but snorted coldly.
Then, he bent down and began to explore the ground.
Fifteen minutes later, Qin Ran returned.
He frowned, not only because he found that the end of this passage was blocked, but also found some other noteworthy things.
"The road was blocked because I accidentally touched the mechanism!"
"If we want to leave, we need to find another way!"
The woman said without raising her head.
"Um."
Qin Ran glanced at the other party indiscriminately, and then began to look for the door for the priests presiding over the ceremony to enter and exit.
The encounter in a strange place made neither of the two parties have the idea of speaking again.
Not to mention self-introduction.
Click, click!
When Qin Ran pressed down on the base of the statue, the eyes of one of the wailers, there was a sound of machine springs, and the floor directly in front of the statue began to retreat slowly, revealing a row of downward steps.
"Good job!"
The woman said so and walked straight on.
Qin Ran narrowed his eyes and looked at the other person's back, and followed slowly.
There are about 40 downward steps.
The height of each step is more than 25 centimeters. There is no winding, but straight down. At the end of the steps is a wide hall.
call!
The torch on the wall lit up as the woman stepped onto the hall floor, illuminating the entire hall, and also allowed Qin Ran to easily see a stone door at the end of the corridor and the fallen man standing not far from the door. Two dead bodies.
The two bodies were also skeletalized.
The crossbow arrow in the hand of one of the skeletons told Qin Ran their identities.
"The priest and assassin who presided over the ceremony?"
Qin Ran looked at the two skeletons.
The assassin pierced the priest's heart with a crossbow, but his neck was crushed.
Judging from the distance between the two skeletons, it is completely impossible for ordinary people to do so.
However, considering the demon statue enshrined in Toudi, it is not unacceptable that this assassinated priest has the ability to cast spells.
Of course, there is another possibility: besides the two, there is another person.
A beneficiary of a mantis catching cicadas and orioles behind.
It's just that too much time has passed.
It has been so long that even if Kieran enters [Tracking]'s field of vision, he cannot find any clues.
"Come and help!"
"Those two people have become bones, what else is there to see?"
"Let's get out of here is the point!"
"I don't want to stay here any longer!"
The woman who was trying to push the stone door couldn't help shouting angrily when she saw Qin Ran staring at the two corpses and stopped.
"OK."
Qin Ran nodded and walked towards the woman.
Then, when he was two steps away from the opponent, he stopped suddenly and kicked out.
Suddenly, without any warning.
As swift as a gust of wind, a kick as fast as lightning landed on the woman's neck.
gaba!
With the sound of bones shattering, the woman's body hit the wall on one side. Her eyes were wide open, as if she was dying, and she seemed to ask Qin Ran why he wanted to kill him.
Qin Ran didn't answer.
He came to the woman's body like a shadow, and his legs turned into layers of phantoms, covering her.
Kieran stopped when the corpse was completely out of shape.
laugh!
A gray mist spewed out from the corpse, spreading faintly.
Immediately the corpse becomes picturesquely shriveled and begins to crumble into crystalline sand.
"Sure enough!"
Looking at this scene, Qin Ran was not surprised at all.
When the other party appeared, Kieran was extremely vigilant, but when he explored the secret passage, such vigilance completely turned into suspicion.
The air in the secret passage is completely stagnant.
The filthy and rancid smell forced Qin Ran to cover his mouth and nose when he entered it.
But the other party who passed through this secret passage did not have any such smell on his body.
Of course, it is also possible that a certain magical item on the other party's body has the effect of isolating these smells, but what about the sealed secret passage?
It is not something that can be achieved in a short period of time if you want to form such a dirty and rancid smell in the secret passage.
At least it is the accumulation of years and months.
But what did the woman in front of me say?
'The road was blocked because I accidentally touched the mechanism! '
The opponent touched the organ!
Then, the secret passage was sealed, and the other party stayed in the secret passage for at least a few months, and when he appeared, it just happened to fall from the sky.
This can no longer be said to be a coincidence.
From the very beginning, the appearance of the other party was full of conspiracy.
"It has the appearance of a normal human being, and has a certain amount of wisdom, but it's not too high, and it lacks rigorous logic..."
While thinking about it, Qin Ran looked towards the stone gate.
How the other party appeared, Kieran was not sure.
However, Kieran was certain of the opponent's purpose.
The stone gate in front of you.
The other party wanted him to push open the stone door in front of him.
This stone gate is neither high nor big.
Just like in a normal family with a courtyard, the gate that opens the courtyard.
However, there is no doubt that this door is far more dangerous than the courtyard gate.
In Qin Ran's perception, when he looked at the door with his eyes, he had the faint feeling of being pointed at by a sword.
And, not a handful.
It is thousands.
And when Qin Ran carefully approached a little distance, he immediately found that the surface of the seemingly flat stone door was actually engraved with densely packed runes.
These runes are small and are constantly stacked.
If you don't get up close, you can't see it at all.
Just when Qin Ran was about to examine the runes on the stone gate more carefully, the faint gray mist that should have dissipated suddenly became thicker and filled the entire hall.
Immediately, Qin Ran was shrouded in it.
