"Old Gong was startled by Yang Gui Jin and let out a sigh, advising him to be more careful and make less noise."
Yang Guijin clenched his lips, tense-faced, and beads of fine sweat formed on his forehead.
For some reason, an idea suddenly popped into my head.
The words Yang Guijin had previously spoken must have been problematic?
He said, anything my father told me not to touch and all the others must disperse, still all went to take things, leading to death.
But now he is saying that anyone who takes away anything will die here.
His expression of fear and regret, if nothing had actually happened, I wouldn't believe him.
Is there a possibility that they actually intended to take away the heritage here, failed, and everyone perished? Is it possible that what he said before was just a lie?
I just don't understand, it would be better to just ask directly, why does Yang Guijin lie?
"Let's go..." Yang Guijin suddenly spoke in a hoarse voice, he blankly walked towards a certain direction.
I exchanged a glance with Kuang Ying, and the two of us caught up with him.
Suddenly, Yang Guijin said, "If I were to die in this Gao Tian Temple, hope you will treat my younger brother well, he is truly good to you."
"If you can see my father, remember to tell him where my corpse is."
Yang Guijin's words are not a kind of melancholic mood, but rather some tension.
This tension stems from fear?
I always feel like something is off.
But still unclear, where it's not right.
Under the guidance of Yang Guijin, we quickly went through this layer and saw another door. However, this door had no inscriptions and even no door panels. It was just a doorway.
Yang Guijin's steps sped up, and his strides grew larger!
He took a sudden leap over the doorway, then halted abruptly, his body trembling slightly.
Later, Yang Guijin quickly calmed down, and he seemed to be covering his chest with one hand.
"This layer is the Gao Tian Dao's training of the heart. The next layer is the academy..." Yang Guijin's tone became heavier, as if he was trying to cover up some emotion.
Old Gong's eyes flickered, and he muttered suddenly, "What is the dead sheep head laughing about?"
My pupil contracted slightly, Yang Guijin was laughing?
Old Gong has already said that, that must be it.
Just a moment ago, Yang Guijin was afraid of dying, and now he is laughing?
Is he really not affected by the magical artifacts?
Kuang Ying's alertness on her face did not disappear.
In an instant, Yang Guijin had walked out over ten steps. We immediately caught up.
The first layer down is a prison for children, and the second layer is a place for training the heart filled with books.
We quickly passed through the sloping corridor to reach the third layer.
However, the third layer is actually similar to the first layer in some ways.
It is a very long passage, with an iron grate door opposite at intervals.
However, this layer is much higher than the first layer.
The rooms within the iron grate doors are larger, with one bed on each side.
Some rooms are empty, while some rooms have two bodies.
These corpses have not turned into zombies, wearing Taoist robes, and are quite ordinary.
Academy... Staying in the room, repeating the tedious and boring routine they had just arrived with! ?
We soon passed through the third layer.
When we reached the fourth layer, it was more like a training ground.
The shelves around the perimeter held a variety of weapons, mostly including Taoist copper swords, long swords, whisks, and other types of artifacts.
The fifth layer had a lot of boxes, some of which were opened, while others were not.
The floor was checkered.
When we arrived here, Yang Guijin was very cautious and asked us to follow him closely, in order, otherwise the mechanisms in this place would be triggered.
In addition, the boxes here should not be moved, even if you see what treasures are in the open boxes, you should resist the temptation.
All the items here are rewards given by the Gao Tian Taoist Temple to the disciples who pass through each level above and reach this place.
I and Kuang Ying followed Yang Guijin very cautiously.
Old Gong was humming directly, and I couldn't hear what he was muttering.
To me, I know my inner greed is not strong, but when I passed by some open boxes and saw what was inside, my inner thoughts remained turbulent.
The first open box I saw was filled with Zhongshan white glue and another type of medicine I had never seen before. These two things, when placed together, were definitely of equal value.
Kuang Ying looked at it several times.
The second open box contained peach wood swords made from blackened wood.
Not one, but a set!
The wood was charred because it had been struck by lightning; that was a thunderstruck wooden sword!
I have many magical artifacts from the Tuo'e Daoist Temple, but none of them can compare to this set of thunderstruck wooden swords! As long as I hold it in my hand, regardless of the number of disciples in the Daoist Association, my strength is bound to be significantly improved.
My breathing started to become heavier.
I glanced at Old Gong.
Old Gong licking his lips, breathing just as hurriedly.
"To come and not take, it is impolite. To not seize the opportunity, it is a waste of being a person."
In front of Yang Guijin, who suddenly stopped and suspiciously stared at Old Gong, he croaked in a hoarse voice: "Don't confuse Xian Shen! As long as we take anything here, the mechanism on the ground will change, and the path I know will no longer be correct."
"Seems like no one can't see the pattern here. Old Gong, my grandpa, has great abilities!" Old Gong looked indignant.
"Xian Shen wants magical artifacts, and I have them here! Better than the ones in the cabinet!"
"You shouldn't be overconfident! Overconfidence will kill!"
"Even if you died once, do you want to experience the feeling of losing your soul and essence here?!" Yang Guijin spoke firmly.
My face changed slightly, and Kuang Ying shook her head at me subtly, trying to suppress her concern.
Yang Guijin took out the copper pestle magical artifact again, just two steps ahead of me.
In the next moment, he threw the magical artifact towards me!
Since we left the layer full of ghosts earlier, I had already put away the four-rule mirror and half-inch copper sword, leaving my hands empty.
I raised my hand and caught the copper pestle magical artifact!
Indeed... Yang Guijin was right, this artifact was definitely stronger than the others.
Especially since Yang Guijin is fine and has confirmed that the artifact is safe...
But the next second, the bone-chilling feeling came.
Before me, there were two people...
There should have only been Yang Guijin, but there was an extra person by his side!
The man's figure was extremely tall, nearly two meters high. He had a thin face, narrow eyes, and an especially cold expression on his face.
Yang Guijin showed no sign of realization, neither did Kuang Ying and Old Gong.
The man looked at me, and a smile, along with satisfaction, curved his lips.
My hair stood on end, and I felt a shiver down my spine.
Suddenly, the man walked towards me!
"Go away!" I suddenly swung the copper pestle in my hand and struck towards him!
In an instant, he vanished without a trace...
"Xian Shen? What's wrong with you?" Kuang Ying looked startled and grabbed my arm.
