Chapter 84 [Nine Mirrors] (Part 2)

Yan Tianxin initially remembered the ancestral teachings. The Nine Nether Secret Realm was a forbidden area that the Jurchens, the Jurchens, had not been allowed to enter for generations. However, now that they have come here, it seems like they have fallen into an irresistible vortex, sinking deeper and deeper. Only by walking along the way is no longer possible. She also accepted the reality. No matter what kind of curse is hidden in this secret realm, she has to accompany Luo Lie all the way. Even if she is broken into pieces, she will fall into hell forever? After walking all the way from Heihu Ridge, being able to survive until now is favored by God. After experiencing danger, she has unknowingly taken life and death indifferent.

The gate of the Ice Palace was closed, and Luo Lie pressed his right hand against the cold door and pushed it with all his strength. He thought the door had been frozen, but he didn't expect that the door shaft would rotate freely after pushing it. With the squeaking sound, the door slowly opened.

A cold and cold air invaded from the ice palace. Yan Tianxin was forced by the air conditioner and couldn't help but shivered. Luo Lie walked ahead and was the first to be affected. He was stimulated by the air conditioner and sneezed twice in a row.

Luo Lie discovered that the gate of the Ice Palace was not completely made of ice, but was carved with crystal, so the door shaft and door leaf had not rotted and frozen for thousands of years, and it still rotated freely. While praising the magic of the Ice Palace, he also guessed that the owner's identity was respectful and was definitely not an ordinary person.

Although Yan Tianxin, as the leader of Lianyun Village, had never heard of an ice palace in Tianmai Mountain, and he had no way to know the identity of the owner. When he walked into the ice palace, the temperature dropped sharply. The two of them were already thin, and they felt even colder at this time, and they could only rely on each other to keep warm.

Luo Lie used a lighter to illuminate the hall, but saw that the hall was magnificent, with huge icicles of thickness and thickness supported in the hall. Above the icicles were carved with dragons and phoenixes and lotus bases, which were meticulously crafted and delicate. On the middle of the hall were carved with crystal clear lotus flowers, meaning lotus growth step by step. There were more than a hundred statues of people standing on both sides, which should be civil officials and military generals, and their bodies and expressions were all imitated by normal human proportions. Unlike the wax figures outside, these statues were all made of ice, but all of them were wearing clothes, because the special environment here was just dull in color and there were not much changes in shape.

Luo Lie reached out and touched it. Some clothes turned into powder as soon as they touched it. This made him feel a little disappointed that he was eager to find clothes to keep the cold. However, he soon discovered that several of the furs had been around for thousands of years and were still as new as new, with a warm, soft texture and soft fur. This was a timely help for both of them.

Luo Lie found two neat fur robes, shook off the dust, first put them on Yan Tianxin, and then put them on them himself. The fur has excellent thermal insulation performance, and it immediately became much warmer after the upper body. Most of these ice sculpture generals were equipped with swords. Luo Lie selected a Tang sword from them. The sword shape of this weapon came from the Han ring head knife. The blade was straight and was the most common war knife in the Tang Dynasty. The Chinese forging technology reached its peak in the Tang Dynasty. The Tang sword as a war knife was strict and the forging was fine. Considering the armor-breaking and durability, the steel was extremely tough, the blade was narrow and thin, and the toughness was extremely strong. It used the iron-wrapped technology, and the iron was the outer skin, and the inner steel was clamped with hundreds of steel. Some of the blades used the local quenching process of covering the soil and burning the blade. The blade was hard and could be cut and broken, and the blade body was tough and not deformed.

Many of the popular Taidao in Japan have learned advanced experience from the Tang Dynasty. What is sad is that the Chinese forging technology has gradually declined from the moment of the Tang Dynasty. Many crafts have been lost overseas and have been passed on and carried forward in foreign countries.

Yan Tianxin selected a scimitar and found another crossbow. She was injured in her right shoulder and her actions had a great impact. Naturally, there was no combat effectiveness. Using this crossbow, she could shoot the enemy from a distance, and at least she could play some self-protection role. She aimed at an ice sculpture in the distance, pulled the trigger of the crossbow, and a scream, and the crossbow arrow shot into the ice sculpture. The ice sculpture shattered in response to the sound, twitching, and ice scattered all over the ground.

Luo Lie took the corner bow from the body of a general Ice Sculpture, pulled the bowstring, and was sure it was available, so he carried the longbow on his body and then spread the arrow pouch around his waist.

The two of them stopped getting equipment, and they both smiled knowingly when they looked at each other. Compared to the embarrassment they had just entered the Ice Palace, now they have at least a sable fur to keep warm and weapons to defend themselves, which has increased a lot of confidence. In terms of situation alone, there is a difference between heaven and earth.

The two of them climbed up the steps and came to the throne of the ice sculpture. There was only one puppet doll on the throne. The doll was pitch black and its head was largely small. It was ugly and had a strange smile on its round face. This kind of doll was not uncommon in the local area. Because there were many trees in the Pale Mountain area, most of the toys for children were made of local materials. Most of these toys were simple and mostly not carving. However, although the puppet doll in front of them was ugly, the carving was extremely exquisite, with vivid facial features. A pair of eyes with a large proportion should be inlaid with black cat's eye gems, with black and white distinction, and glittering as if they came alive. It made people feel that its eyes were always staring at it, with a smile on its face, revealing a gloomy and mysterious chill.

Yan Tianxin just glanced at the doll, turned her pretty face to the side, frowned slightly, and felt that her heart was extremely depressed. Although her attention was shifting from the puppet doll, the unpredictable smile on the puppet face still echoed in her mind.

Luo Lie also felt that the puppet was unusual. It was hard to imagine a scene where a child regarded such an ugly puppet doll as a pet. Even those who were mature in their hearts felt disgusted and even feared from the bottom of their hearts, let alone a child full of childishness. Luo Lie reached out to pick up the puppet, which was quite heavy. The puppet was carved from gloomy wood. He turned the puppet over, but saw two words of blood on the back of the puppet to save me! These two words were carved in Xiawen.

Luo Lie felt a trembling heart. With his powerful psychological quality, he almost accidentally threw the puppet to the ground. He sucked in secret and mustered up the courage. His fingers touched the blood on the puppet's back. The tentacles were sticky, and it looked like fresh blood. Luo Lie poked it with his fingers, then he fell in front of his nose and smelled it. A smell of sandalwood came, with no blood in it. It was speculated that these blood was not real, and the wound should have been carved with a knife. As for the blood, it was probably drawn by some kind of pigment, but because it was vividly painted, it could almost be real.

Yan Tianxin bit her cherry lips, glanced at the puppet, and whispered: "This puppet is so weird, its eyes seem to be looking at me all the time." She noticed that the puppet's eyes seemed to be staring at her from beginning to end, which made her feel like she was being peeped at from the bottom of her heart.

Luo Lie actually felt the same way. He also thought that the puppet was looking at him, and his eyes were like having life. I wonder if it was his illusion, but he always felt that those eyes were staring at him slowly. He turned the puppet and placed it again on the ice sculpture throne. He turned around and left after walking a few steps. Both of them felt that there were eyes behind him peeking at him, and turned around at the same time. But he saw that the ice sculpture throne was empty, and the wooden sculpture doll had no trace in a flash. Yan Tianxin couldn't help but exclaim, everything in front of him was too strange. Could the puppet doll really have life and can you walk by yourself?
