Traveling through the world of Paper Wedding Dress

Chapter 182 Maze

Xi Yueyao received the dolls sent by Xun Yuanfeng, a boy and a girl. They should be the dragon and phoenix piles required for the broken bridge. Xi Yueyao put the dolls into the pit and buried them, and the broken bridge was connected by itself.

Tao Mengyan said happily: "The bridge is open to traffic. Is that where Yuanfeng is?"

Xi Yueyao: "Let's go over and take a look and we'll know."

This is obviously not the way to Xun Yuanfeng. The corridor here is very long with many turns. From time to time, you will end up in a dead end or end up back at the same place.

"Are we back again?" Tao Mengyan saw the mark she had made before.

"It seems so. This won't work. We'll lose our sense of direction. The maze here is quite big." Xi Yueyao didn't go any further. They had circled around this place three times and had come back every time.

"There should be some clues." Tao Mengyan thought. According to past experience, there were always some obvious or implicit clues, but none of them were found in this maze.

"Unless the tip is not on our side."

Tao Mengyan immediately called Xun Yuanfeng: "Strange, I can't get through. There is no signal here."

Xi Yueyao felt strange: "But couldn't Xun Yuanfeng have called us before?"

"Maybe he needs to call us." Tao Mengyan remembered that Xun Yuanfeng had mentioned his mobile phone before, and it seemed that it was not available on the market. It might be because of this relationship.

"Then I'll try to contact Lao Xiao with the suona. I hope they can hear it."

Xi Yueyao blew the suona with all her might, and soon Tao Mengyan's cell phone rang. It was obvious that she heard and understood what Xi Yueyao meant.

"What happened to Meng Yan?" Xun Yuanfeng asked.

"We are now trapped in a maze, but there are no clues here. Do you have any?"

"I can see the situation in your maze from here. Just follow my instructions."

Tao Mengyan returned to the entrance according to the previous signs, then walked again according to the instructions and took a statue of Arhat placed in the maze.

"Is this Arhat statue what you need?" Tao Mengyan asked.

"We do have a lotus pedestal here but there is no Buddha statue on it. It may be from there."

Xi Yueyao sent the Arhat statue over, and not long after, Lao Xiao sent a talisman over with a bow and arrow.

"Talisman, talisman..." Tao Mengyan couldn't remember what this could be used for.

Wendy reminded: "There was a faceless stone statue before."

"Yes, his face looks like a talisman. Wendy, you have a great memory." Tao Mengyan praised.

They have been trapped in this turbid earth cave for a long time. There is no distinction between day and night in this place, so it is easy to get confused about time. Fortunately, there is a mobile phone to remind them, but there is no food here, and the physical strength they consume cannot be replenished. They have to use their brains and walk through the maze to find clues. Even a man would easily get tired, let alone Tao Mengyan and the others.

Under normal circumstances, she would not have forgotten this. Now that she needs to be reminded to remember it, it is obvious that her brain is starting to slow down. She has to leave here quickly and meet up with them.

Tao Mengyan put the talisman on the face of the faceless monk, and the monk took out a small copper boat and a bronze ball from his sleeves.

"This ball should have been placed in the maze to be used like a seismograph." Xi Yueyao said.

"We have to go through the maze again." Tao Mengyan's face didn't look very good, but she still had to go.

"Xiao Xi, aren't you tired?" Tao Mengyan found that Xi Yueyao always had that calm expression and his speed didn't slow down at all.

"A little, but it's okay. After all, I'm a doctor. Doctors take several hours to perform surgery. Even though I'm a psychiatrist, I've trained to improve my physical strength in order to take better care of patients."

Tao Mengyan looked at Wendy again and found that he looked even more relaxed, as if he was taking a walk: "Where's Wendy?"

"Me? I'm a bard. I've traveled to various countries on foot to find good stories."

Tao Mengyan nodded blankly and believed it.

Xi Yueyao noticed Tao Mengyan's fatigue: "Are you tired?"

"A little, but fortunately we can still hold on, don't worry." Tao Mengyan said with a smile, obviously not wanting to make them worry or to be afraid of holding them back.

Several people walked to the seismometer and put the bronze ball in. After that, a loud sound of stones rubbing against each other came from the far right rear.

Xi Yueyao looked at the location where the sound came from and said, "This direction seems to be the exit. The stone door was closed when I went there before. Judging from the sound, it should be open now."

Tao Mengyan: "Let's go and take a look."

At the exit, I saw a man chopping down a tree with a talisman, muttering, "Why won't this tree fall? Why won't it fall?"

Xi Yueyao stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, what are you doing?"

The lumberjack: "If I chop down the tree, I will become an immortal. That's what the scriptures say! Why doesn't this tree fall? Why is this happening?"

Tao Mengyan asked curiously: "Your name isn't Wu Gang, is it?"

The man ignored Tao Mengyan and continued to cut down trees.

Wendy asked, "Do you know him?"

"I don't know him, but his appearance reminds me of the story of Wu Gang cutting down the cassia tree." Especially the way he's dressed.

"Wu Gang cuts down the cassia tree? What is this?"

"Have you never heard of the fairy tale?"

"Because I have never been exposed to this before while abroad." Wendy lowered her head and said in a low voice. Her melancholy look made Tao Mengyan feel heartbroken.

"I'll buy it for you when we get out!"

"Really? Thank you, Sister Mengyan!" There was no trace of the bright smile from before, it was obviously fake just now.

At this time, Xi Yueyao said to the others, "I found that his axe hit the tree but there was no sound at all. Obviously, this tree is fake, it should be an illusion."

"To dispel illusions... Didn't Yuanfeng use a mirror to dispel illusions before? This should be the same."

Several people retreated to the exit and got the bronze mirror sent by Xun Yuanfeng, and then went back to use the bronze mirror to shine the tree, and found that the real tree was behind the fake tree. This time the tree was cut down. The man shouted happily: "The tree fell, the tree finally fell. I will become an immortal, I can fly to the heaven!" Then he jumped from the edge of the platform without hesitation.

Xi Yue looked at the direction where the lumberjack jumped down and was stunned for a while: "Sure enough, he didn't fly up... I was expecting it..."

"Another person who has been fooled, but fortunately, except for us, everyone else here is a bunch of residual souls, otherwise I wouldn't be able to turn a blind eye if a living person died in front of me." Tao Mengyan shook her head and sighed.
