Cai Wenjing felt very strange.

There is clearly a stone arch bridge in front of you, but why does Gu Feng say it is a ladder to the sky?

Cai Wenjing couldn't help but be curious and asked, "Is this ladder connecting to the sky any special meaning?"

"Of course it makes sense." Gu Feng said: "There is a ladder in the underworld, and it is said that the heavens are connected to the heavens. It can lead those who are extremely sinful and evil in the underworld to the Western Paradise. Legend has it that if a ladder in the tomb is set up, the souls of the deceased can be led to the heavens and become immortals."

hiss!

Cai Wenjing took a breath of air: "So, does the owner of this tomb want to become an immortal after death?"

"Um."

Cai Wenjing said in shock: "Although it's a whimsical idea, I have to say that the owner of this tomb is extraordinary, otherwise it would be impossible to build such a magnificent tomb."

"The owner of this tomb is indeed extraordinary, but the designer of this tomb is truly extraordinary." Gu Feng said: "The designer of this tomb is definitely a peerless master."

Zhou Zhe came over and asked, "Gu Feng, do you think this is an imperial tomb?"

"This possibility is not ruled out."

Gu Feng also suspected that this was an imperial tomb.

Whether it is the area of ​​the tomb or the constructions in the tomb, they are not something that ordinary people can have. It is very likely that it is an imperial tomb.

"If it was an imperial tomb, who would it belong to?" Zhou Zhe was curious.

Gu Feng smiled and said, "When you arrive at the main tomb chamber, you will know who the tomb owner is."

"Wenjing, can you still feel the breath of Senior Wuchenzi?" Zhou Zhe asked.

Cai Wenjing closed her eyes, calmed down, sniffed deeply, then stepped onto the ladder to the sky.

"Wenjing..." Zhou Zhe spoke out, wanting to remind Cai Wenjing to be careful, after all, this place is full of weirdness.

However, as soon as he spoke, he heard Cai Wenjing say, "The breath of Senior Wu Chenzi is on the ladder of the sky, and he goes up."

Cai Wenjing pointed to the ladder to the sky.

"Let's go up too, be careful," said Gu Feng.

Zhou Zhe glanced at the ladder and said with a bitter face: "I'm afraid of heights, what should I do?"

"Don't look down." Gu Feng thought for a while and said, "Zhou Zhe, go behind me."

"Why?" Zhou Zhe was puzzled.

Gu Feng said: "If I walk behind you and you fall, it may hit me, which will hurt. If I walk in front of you, the situation will be different. If you fall, you will only fall into the cliff and will not hit me."

"You, are you still a human?"

Zhou Zhe was so angry that he cursed.

Gu Fengyi said righteously: "Because I am a human being, I am afraid of pain."

Zhou Zhe: “…”

Cai Wenjing turned around, looked at Gu Feng with contempt, and said, "What are you afraid of as a big man?"

"You are not afraid of pain, are you? OK, go behind Zhou Zhe." Gu Feng said.

Cai Wenjing glanced at Zhou Zhe.

Zhou Zhe's legs were trembling, as if he would fall down at any time.

Moreover, the ladder extends upwards, step by step higher and higher, and the steps are hanging in the air, with a cliff below.

If you walk behind Zhou Zhe, if Zhou Zhe falls in front, the one behind will be smashed by Zhou Zhe, and even falls into the cliff before Zhou Zhe.

The genius walked behind him.

Cai Wenjing said: "I want to look for the breath left by Senior Wu Chenzi in front, and I can't go behind."

Gu Feng seemed to guess that Cai Wenjing would say this, and said with a smile: "Since the Ladder of Tongtian has the breath of Wuchenzi, it means that he has climbed the ladder. Therefore, before you finish the Ladder of Tongtian, you don't have to look for the breath of Wuchenzi. If you want, you can walk behind Zhou Zhe to take care of him..."

"I don't want to."

Cai Wenjing turned her head and walked quickly in front.

"Brother Zhou, you saw it. I have said everything I should say. It's because she doesn't want to take care of you. I have no choice. Be careful yourself!"

Gu Feng stepped on the ladder to the sky and walked up the steps.

"You...you...I hate you so much! I want to break up with you!"

Zhou Zhe shouted loudly from behind.

Even so, neither Cai Wenjing nor Gu Feng looked back.

Zhou Zhe looked at the ladder of the sky, took a deep breath, and calmed himself down, then slowly took steps and carefully stepped onto the ladder of the sky.

"Isn't it just a fear of heights? I can definitely overcome it. Zhou Zhe, you can do it!"

Zhou Zhe cheered himself up in his heart.

...

A ladder through the sky, made of bluestone.

There are 999 steps in total.

Nine, in the theory of Yin and Yang, it is an extreme number, representing supreme.

Each step of the ladder is about three feet long and one foot wide, with sun, moon and stars carved on it. It means that this is a way of guidance. The dead can step on the sun, moon and stars, and their souls ascend to heaven and become immortals.

Gu Feng also noticed that the lamp holder of each eternal lamp is carefully carved from top-quality white jade and is in the shape of a lotus.

It can be seen that the owner of this tomb must be quite big.

Half an hour later.

Gu Feng and the others were already standing on the 999th step. Looking down, it was a bottomless cliff.

call--

A cold wind blew up, making the whole body feel cold.

Zhou Zhe looked down and felt dizzy and almost fainted. He said in a trembling voice: "Gu...Gu Feng, if you fall accidentally, you must help me!"

"Okay." Gu Feng said: "I'll help you collect the body."

Zhou Zhe: “…”

"Don't waste time, this is the last step. We will be safe after we walk." Cai Wenjing said.

The last step of the ladder to the sky is dozens of feet long, and it is built on a cliff that is extremely dangerous.

Every five meters, there is a lit eternal light.

Cai Wenjing walked in the front, Gu Feng walked in the middle, and Zhou Zhe walked in the end.

"Zhou Zhe, do you know why these eternal lights can still be on in the tomb?" Cai Wenjing asked.

Zhou Zhe stared at the steps and moved his steps forward carefully, without any intention of answering the question.

"I'm asking you." Cai Wenjing asked again: "Do you know why these eternal lights are on?"

Zhou Zhe didn't raise his head: "Because there is oil!"

Puchi-

Gu Feng couldn't help laughing.

Damn, this answer is amazing.

Cai Wenjing was a little unhappy and muttered: "I want to ask, why are these eternal lanterns on?"

"Because there is oil!"

"No, I mean, why are they lit up in the tombs?"

"Didn't I say it, there's oil!"

"That's not what I mean."

"What do you mean?"

“I mean…”

Cai Wenjing was about to go crazy and wanted to scold Zhou Zhe. Why didn't he understand what he meant by this stupid critic?

"Do you know why the eternal light is on?" Gu Feng asked Cai Wenjing.

He thought that Cai Wenjing wanted to divert Zhou Zhe's attention and deliberately asked a question.

Who knows, Cai Wenjing shook her head: "I don't know."

No, don’t you know such simple common sense?

Gu Feng was stunned.

"Do you know?" Cai Wenjing asked back.

Of course I know!

If I don't know, wouldn't I be as stupid as you?

Gu Feng said: "The reason why the eternal lamp can be lit in the tomb is because there is air in the tomb."

"It's that simple?"

"Or what do you think?" Gu Feng smiled and said, "Of course, what Zhou Zhe said is correct. Although there is air, oil is indispensable."

Cai Wenjing was speechless.

If I had known it was so simple, I wouldn't ask. Obviously I was very uneducated.

All three of them were very careful.

As I was about to walk the ladder to the sky, suddenly, a thick mist filled the sky and murderous intent suddenly appeared.
