Chapter 229: This accountant is worth hiring!
Moreover, Lao Xiao seemed to have forgotten Lin Bai's terrifying strength.
I have never seen the power of Lin Bai after he obtained the sword energy of the Immortal Sword Technique...
Although the stone statue is tall and mighty, it cannot move its hands and feet in the narrow stone chamber.
But Lin Bai was like a fish in water, punching like the wind and moving forward and backward freely.
In an instant, fists and kicks were flying everywhere, making the stone statue dizzy and defeated.
For a moment, Lin Bai's figure was as fast as lightning, and the stone hammer of the stone statue was as powerful as the wind. The two fought back and forth, and it was hard to tell who was stronger.
On the other side, Lao Xiao seized the opportunity and rushed to the chessboard, burying his head in studying again.
The fierce battle continued. Lin Bai punched while looking for the weakness of the stone statue.
Although it was strong all over, it also had a flaw - the pair of red eyes seemed to be its weak spot!
So Lin Bai began to consciously attack the eyes of the stone statue.
After several attacks, the stone statue was forced to retreat again and again, as if it had suffered a great loss.
But before Lin Bai could feel proud, the statue suddenly attacked!
Its eyes were bloodshot, and it let out a long howl toward the sky, causing the entire stone chamber to tremble.
Then, a crack appeared on its chest, revealing a fist-sized red crystal!
The crystal was translucent throughout, emitting an enchanting light.
An astonishing wave of energy burst out from it!
"not good!"
Lin Bai secretly thought that something was wrong and instinctively wanted to retreat.
But before he could move, a beam of blazing light shot out from the crystal stone, rushing towards him at lightning speed!
At the critical moment, Lin Bai suddenly dodged to the side.
However, the beam of light seemed to have eyes and kept chasing him, determined to hit him!
Lin Bai rushed left and right in the stone chamber, and could only raise his arms to defend himself when he couldn't dodge in time. Wherever the beam of light passed, the ground was burned black, and the heat wave was rolling. It was extremely powerful.
Seeing the beam of light approaching, Lin Bai became very anxious, but there was nothing he could do.
On the other side, Lao Xiao, who was concentrating on studying the chess record, was completely unaware of the crisis behind him.
"Run quickly!"
While Lin Bai was dodging desperately, he yelled at Lao Xiao, trying to remind him to get out of the way quickly.
But Lao Xiao turned a deaf ear and continued to think hard in front of the chessboard.
He looked focused and oblivious to everything around him, as if the life-and-death struggle before him had nothing to do with him.
Damn it, is Lao Xiao deaf...
I can even be distracted at this time...
But it seems that Lao Xiao is determined to crack this chess game.
Given the current situation, delaying time becomes particularly important.
Seeing this, Lin Bai had no choice but to buy enough time.
The two of them each performed their duties.
One is working hard to break the deadlock, while the other is fighting bloody battles.
At the critical moment of life and death, they showed their unparalleled tacit understanding.
Finally, at the critical moment, Lao Xiao raised his head!
“I found a breakthrough!”
"Just do as I say, quick!"
His eyes sparkled, and he looked extremely excited. He pointed at the chessboard and said loudly...
Immediately afterwards, Lao Xiao began to give orders quickly.
"Lin Bai, immediately retreat three squares to your left!"
"Next, move right two spaces, move forward one space, and stop!"
"Finally, move five squares diagonally backward!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Bai immediately followed his instructions.
While he was alert to the stone statue's attack, he moved flexibly on the chessboard.
At the same time, Lao Xiao just finished his last instruction.
He stretched out a finger and pointed at a certain square:...
"It's right here, step on it!"
Lin Bai stepped down without hesitation.
In an instant, the entire chessboard suddenly lit up with dazzling light!
Colorful lines burst out from the crisscrossing squares of the chessboard, forming a huge magic circle!
“Now!”
Lin Bai seized the opportunity and attacked suddenly.
He pounced forward, his five fingers like hooks, aiming at the red crystal on the chest of the statue and grabbing it fiercely!
The stone statue was trapped in the magic circle at this moment and had no time to dodge.
I watched helplessly as Lin Bai's hand reached into his chest and tightly grasped that strange heart!
“Break it for me!”
Lin Bai shouted loudly, and used all his Qi to pull the crystal stone out of the stone statue's chest!
With a loud bang, the stone statue fell down.
Its body was torn into pieces, turning into dust and rubble all over the sky.
The crystal stone that was taken away also shattered into pieces in Lin Bai's hands and finally turned into powder.
“It worked!”
Only when everything was settled did Lin Bai and Lao Xiao breathe a sigh of relief.
wipe!
Do you want to play so excitingly...
By the way, Lao Xiao is really versatile!
This accountant is worth hiring!
I saw that the chessboard that was full of traps just now was now slowly sinking.
As it sank, a passage leading to deeper depths gradually emerged.
"Let's go and see what's waiting for us at the next level."
Old Xiao limped towards the passage, and it seemed that he was seriously injured when he was hit by the stone statue.
I also suffered some minor skin injuries.
"Is it serious? How about taking a break first?"
Lin Bai quickly stepped forward to help him, and said with concern...
Lao Xiao waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.
He took out some medicine and bandages from the package and bandaged the wound in no time.
He swallowed a few pills of the tonic that he had prepared earlier, and his complexion improved a lot.
The two took the opportunity to eat some dry food and drink some water, and then they regained some strength.
"I wonder what other surprises that old guy Yuan Tiangang has prepared for us?"
Lin Bai smiled and said in a relaxed tone...
Lin Bai and Lao Xiao took a short break and then continued to move deeper...
The passage became increasingly narrow and deep, and an eerie atmosphere filled the air.
In the dim light, you can vaguely see the strange yet exquisite patterns carved on the wall.
“These murals seem to be telling a story.”
"Look, the clothes and attire of the characters in the painting are a bit like those of monks..."
Lin Bai looked at it for a long time and said thoughtfully...
But in Lin Bai's impression, Yuan Tiangang should have nothing to do with monks...
Yuan Tiangang is a lobby sorcerer, but I have never heard that he believes in Buddhism.
But it’s not impossible!
After all, Buddhism and Taoism had already been integrated during the Tang Dynasty.
It is said that Buddhism and Taoism are one.
Therefore, many monks at that time were proficient in both magic and Buddhism.
There are also countless people who practice dual cultivation or triple cultivation...
So the two of them slowed down and carefully studied the contents of the murals.
The pictures are divided into three groups, each group is marked by an ancient bronze bell.
In the first set of pictures, there is a man in gorgeous clothes sitting on a high platform.
He held a sword in his hand, his eyes were as sharp as torches, and he exuded an air of looking down on all living beings.
At his feet, countless people in simple clothes prostrated themselves and knelt down, like subjects worshipping their king.
As you walk forward, the second group of murals comes into view.
The tomb owner now had white hair and beard and a gaunt face, a complete departure from his former high-spirited self.
He was sitting at an antique stone table, buried in a pile of scrolls and books.
The surroundings were filled with pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and there were several lamps on the table that were lit day and night.
All signs indicate that the owner of the tomb was concentrating on researching something here.
