Nightcrawler: 20 Years of Peaceful Demons

Chapter 449

This natural stone bridge is called "Naihe Bridge" by Mr. Zhang. Of course, this Naihe Bridge has the same name as the legendary Naihe Bridge, but they refer to different things.

It is only used to describe the danger of this bridge, and the horror of never returning.

In fact, such a natural stone bridge with a width of one meter, which crosses the sky and stretches into the dark depths at the end, is not very strong at first glance. There was a slight trembling and a panic in his heart, he might not be able to stand at any time, if there was a strong wind blowing, he might fall into the abyss.

The most important thing is that the other end of it is hidden in the darkness, and the other side cannot be seen, which makes people feel that there is no bottom in their hearts.

People are born with a sense of awe for the unknown.

So walking on this Naihe bridge has become a frightening thing, but we have to go. After all, the White Tiger Secret Realm is in a certain cave in the eightfold cold world of hell. We want to find that Secret Realm, here is the only way.

Seeing this seemingly endless stone bridge, it is estimated that [-]% of the people in the field are unwilling to move forward and are afraid. However, the responsibility is on their shoulders, and no one stands up to retreat, but looks at the leader of the team.

Captain Peng took a deep breath, then gestured towards Chen Jing.

Without hesitation, Chen Jing took out a large bundle of white ropes from his backpack and said to us, "I'll put a slipknot on for everyone in a while, and then put a buckle on the bridge that can travel. After getting on the bridge, we will Pulling the rope with each other, if someone has an accident, the rest should use their strength, there should be no problem, and even if you can't stand up, you can tie a slipknot on the bridge to fix your body..."

His method is quite simple to say, but in fact there are many details, but Chen Jing is calm and patient, explaining to everyone patiently, and telling everyone the emergency measures in case of accidents.

After Chen Jing's preaching, when everyone looked at the trembling stone bridge, their sense of fear suddenly became much less.

Only the little monk Mo Yan whispered timidly: "In this way, aren't we grasshoppers in a line, and no one can break free?"

When Captain Peng heard this, he was not angry, but laughed out loud. He said yes, we are like grasshoppers in a line, one prospers and the other loses, but you have to believe that with me and other people around, we will definitely let you Everyone walked across this single-plank bridge safely and reached the other side.

Teacher Zhang also said: "Crossing the bridge of Naihe is not difficult. What is difficult is how to move on after reaching the eightfold cold world of hell. We have already obtained enough information from the informant about this." , so it should be able to find the place, but there is a problem, that is, the eightfold cold world of hell is the place where the origin of the evil spirits gathers, there will be countless fierce auras, and there will be countless inner demons emerging. The worst flashback, it will induce you to do many evil things, such as massacre your own companions, so..."

Dr. Huang took out a bundle of red strings, on which was tied a gold-cast "卍" character, and distributed them to everyone.

Teacher Zhang explained next to him: "This is a magic talisman made by the royal enshrined craftsman Zhang. You wear it around your neck and stick it in front of your heart. It can shield you from the harassment of your demons-but for the eight layers of hell We are not very clear about the situation in the cold world, whether it can be prevented, or how effective it is, we don’t know, so you need to keep your heart and don’t be fooled by others.”

After hearing this, everyone cupped their hands and said, "Okay."

Captain Peng continued: "Hell's eight layers of cold world are divided into 'true, false, flying, falling, coming, going, life, and death'. Each layer has its own weirdness. We learned from the literature that there must be For those in the illusion, I hope that everyone can keep the altar clear and bright, and keep pulling the rope to follow the big troops. The rope is there, and you are not walking alone. If you break free from the rope and shackles, maybe you will fall into endless chaos. Go to the illusion and the ghost, and never come back, you know?"

The two repeatedly preached to us such a thing, that is the fact that "where the rope is, there is the person".

If you take the initiative to let go of this "life-saving rope", it is basically the same as choosing death.

In addition to these, the two also shared their understanding of Hell Yaechi with everyone, and repeatedly warned everyone that they must communicate with the people around them and not fall into their own thinking maze.

In addition, they also reminded us that in the eightfold cold world of hell, there may still be some remnants of the ancient god war, so we must be careful.

After talking like this for a while, I probably felt that the atmosphere in the field was a bit gloomy. Captain Peng and Teacher Zhang glanced at each other, knowing that before going on, I am afraid that everyone will only have the will to die, so no more chatting. Instead, Captain Peng said: "Everyone, for this trip, we have made a lot of preparations before we set off. It can be said that we are fully prepared. In addition, there is also the Buddhist relic in the hands of little mage Mo Yan of Xuefeng Temple."

Hearing this, the little monk raised the magic pestle in his hand high, shook it lightly, and there was a crashing sound like fairy music, which was really crisp and loud in people's ears, with endless aftertaste.

In order to boost morale, he no longer hides from us team members who have been with us all the way, and said seriously: "This one in my hand is the only relic of the ancient lamp-burning Buddha in China, the only one If it’s true, it’s definitely a fake, because it’s the only one in our Xuefeng Temple!”

He spoke very earnestly, repeated his words, and seemed very persistent. I always found it a little funny, but it was also because of his determination that everyone calmed down a little bit.

slap, slap...

Captain Peng clapped his hands and said, "Let's get started!"

Chen Jing began to come over to help tie the ropes and tie the slipknots. We stopped in the order of exploring the way before, but Tang Dao and Captain Peng changed positions, and fell from the front row to the back. On my side, Xia Longfei was in the front and Xia Longfei was in the back. Teacher Zhang, Ma Yi'ao is behind Teacher Zhang.

With the two of us protecting Teacher Zhang, we can feel Captain Peng's trust in us.

With the help of Chen Jing, I made a slipknot and tied it on my left arm. I touched the thumb-thick rope and found that it was not ordinary hemp rope, but a bit like silk weaving, full of toughness.

The slipknots of the ropes are tied, and the distance between each person is about 1.5 meters. The ropes at the front and rear ends are tied to the bridge body of the stone bridge, and they are not tied dead. They can be moved and used as safety ropes.

After finishing all this, Captain Peng gave another speech to us. After boosting the morale of everyone, he took the lead on the bridge.

Chen Jing walked in the front, and Captain Peng followed closely behind him.

To be honest, when I first stood on this stone bridge, my heart was inexplicably flustered. I subconsciously wanted to see the abyss under the bridge, but I didn’t dare to look at it. My heart was hanging in the air. There is a feeling of going to the guillotine.

I believe that other than me, other people should be the same.

It's just that Captain Peng kept encouraging us, and told us not to look into the abyss below, but to focus on the road under our feet and our companions ahead.

He repeatedly chanted, as if bringing strength to all those who harbored fear, the team also started to move slowly from the initial stagnation, and then, when everyone entered the rhythm, the whole team began to move slowly and firmly move forward.

We walked slowly on the "single-plank bridge". The longer we walked, the calmer our hearts became. When I walked with all my attention, all the distracting thoughts in my mind were eliminated. This feeling is actually quite good.

After walking like this for about 10 minutes, suddenly, a biting gust of wind blew from the left direction.

At the beginning, the wind was very "mild", just bitingly cold, but as we walked forward, the strange and unstable wind became stronger and stronger, coming from the left for a while, coming from the right for a while, and sometimes pinching from top to bottom , making people suddenly feel a little unsteady on their feet.

And I was a little unsteady, not to mention the ordinary people in the team who had no cultivation base. After a short attempt, the team began to stagnate.

Everyone squatted down spontaneously, and some even couldn't bear the wind and fell directly to the ground.

The team came to a standstill, which made Captain Peng, the leader, very anxious. He shouted in front: "Get up, get up, this wind is uncertain, we can still go now, and it may explode in a while, and it may even kill us directly." Rolled to the sky, can't stop, hurry up, don't stop."

At this moment we were all tied to a rope, and if one stopped, the rest would not be able to go, so he was very anxious.

Fortunately, Captain Peng's prestige is still there. He urged loudly, even reprimanded, those people lying on the ground also tried to overcome the fear in their hearts, got up and moved on, and the team started to move again, but the speed became even slower. As I walked with my body bent, I felt that the strong wind hit my face, like a knife shaving my face, it was very powerful.

I walked like this for about 5 minutes, but the speed was like a turtle. At this moment, I heard Tang Dao at the end of the team shout, because the wind was too loud, I couldn't hear it very clearly.

After walking a few meters, Tang Dao yelled again. This sentence came with the wind, and I finally heard it clearly.

He was shouting: "There are people behind us."
