Immortal Cultivation and Life-Saving Guide

Chapter 152 Tower 2
Little surprises come one after another.

Wei Xi counted the number of floors of the wooden tower, there were fifteen in total.

Before Wei Xi could count a second time, the surrounding teams entered the wooden tower one after another.

Senior Brother Li Ping knew that he was on this trip to take care of the children, so stability was the top priority. After almost half of the team had entered, he let Yun Feng and the other two, who had been unable to contain themselves for a long time, in.

"Fellow Daoist Wei?" Ge Cang spoke a little louder. "Aren't you going in?"

Wei Xi came back to his senses and said with a smile, "This wooden tower is so tall. This is the first time I've seen it."

Lian Gouqie looked as if he had seen a ghost: Wei Xi usually had a gloomy face, but today he was smiling broadly. It seemed that he was addicted to pretending to be a normal person.

Qin Feng gave Lian Gouqie an elbow, asking him to put away his wolf tail.

"I haven't seen it either," Ge Cang replied as he walked forward, "The sect has buildings but no towers."

"This tower is so tall, taller than the chastity arch in our village!"

"Does your village have a chastity archway?"

The state of Ju was constantly engaged in external warfare, and population was a major concern, so widows were encouraged to remarry. Life and death were common in the military, and when men died in battle, widows and children had to survive, leading many women to remarry.

Therefore, Qin Feng was very surprised and couldn't help but ask.

Ge Cang nodded slightly, "The tribe likes this, and there are many people who wipe their necks and burn their faces with it."

Feng Xiaotian, who was following the group into the tower, heard this and frowned, "My body and hair were given to me by my parents. How can I destroy them like this?"

"Not allowed to remarry?" Wei Xi was also a little surprised. After all, in a poor village, widows were candidates for marriage.

Ge Cang hadn't expected his sigh to attract so much attention. His face flushed crimson as he stammered, "That's right. Remarriage is forbidden. If there's a chaste woman in the family, her family will have priority in choosing the silkworm seeds that year."

Yan Qingluo, who was accompanying the group to see Yun Qing off, spoke up at this moment, "Fellow Daoists, don't be surprised. Regarding the silkworm seeds just mentioned, this Daoist's hometown must be a place rich in silk."

"Silk reelers and silk weavers are both able to earn money in the family," Yan Qingluo said without any emotion on his face. "It's naturally better for them to stay in the clan."

Hearing this, Wei Xi looked at Yan Qingluo deeply.

Before, when Yan Qingluo was hanging around King Wuyang, Wei Xi thought she had been tamed. He didn't expect that she could say such words. It seems that she is not completely a vine girl who depends on others.

Ge Cang looked surprised and stammered, "I...I hadn't thought of it that way. Thank you for your advice."

"Sister Yan's work has been praised by great scholars of the time, so naturally she has profound thoughts." Yun Qing looked proud of herself.

"It's just silk produced in my hometown. I've seen some of it." Yan Qing Luo's almond eyes drooped slightly. "It's not a question of whether I can teach or not."

Seeing that they were about to reach the tower gate, Yan Qingluo hurriedly gave Yun Qing a few instructions.

The latter made a face, picked up her skirt and ran in.

Several people said goodbye to Yan Qingluo and followed him into the secret realm of the wooden tower.

Wei Xizhui was behind and saw a plaque at the entrance of the wooden tower with the words "White Jade Capital in Heaven" written on it.

Thanks to the Qingcheng Sect's literacy education, Wei Xi was still able to recognize these words.

After entering the wooden tower, I found that this floor was so huge that there was no end in sight. The ground was full of debris. It was nothing like the fairy cave I had imagined.

Wei Xi thought that this was called "White Jade Capital in Heaven", but he didn't see a single piece of white jade.

Wei Xi noticed something was wrong the second she looked. Apparently, she wasn't the only one who noticed. Feng Xiaotian asked, "Why can't I see the stairs leading to the second floor?"

Although the first floor of this wooden tower is quite high, it is not necessarily higher than the tenth floor.

Apart from the debris scattered all over the floor, there was nothing else. However, it was spacious enough for nearly 600 people to stand in a dispersed manner.

It turned out that he was waiting here. Only when he saw something strange did Wei Xi feel relieved.

"Feng Daoyou," Wei Xi said, eager to establish a trustworthy image, "how did you get into the secret realm last time?"

Feng Xiaotian, who was trying to chant the magic formula, thought for a moment, "Well, last time, it was the elders of the Heaven and Earth Sect who opened the secret realm. We went in, and there wasn't anything strange in the secret realm."

Three people being chased by a silkworm chrysalis monster, ambushed by swamp mist, and hung upside down by a blood-sucking monster: ...you just don't know how exciting it is.

"Xiao Xi, what have you thought of?" In this situation, Qin Feng said that it would be better to avoid detours, and Wei Xi could just ask her beside him.

"There's nothing to think about," Yun Qing leaned forward, "There are so many things on the ground. The mechanism might be hidden among the debris. We don't know when it will be discovered. I have a way to get everyone up there."

The other members of the team looked at the confident Yun Qing in surprise. Did they crack it so quickly?
"Miss Yun, what did you see?" Lian Gouqie asked curiously.

"No," Yun Qing said with a clear face, "How would I know what this is? Also, just call me Yun Qing. Calling me Miss Yun all the time sounds strange."

Everyone was even more confused as to what this meant.

"We have to go up and take a look. We can just step on something to get up." After saying that, Yun Qing stretched out her left hand, and a halo appeared in the palm of her hand.

Feng Xiaotian suddenly understood and explained to his brothers: "The Yun family of Zhongzhou started out as beastmen. Yun Qing must be using a contracted beast to send us up."

Yun Qing said happily, "You still have some knowledge. I've already told you, I won't hold you back! Also, my Mianmian is so pretty, don't step on her and make her dirty later!"

Wei Xi held down Yun Qing who was about to summon the contracted beast.

"Yunqing, don't be anxious." Wei Xi said to Yunqing's puzzled look.

"Junior Sister Wei," Li Ping said, "Why don't you let Miss Yun break the impasse?"

"It's good to find a new way," Wei Xi explained, "but this level of the tower is very strange."

"What's so weird about that?" Yun Qing muttered, "Maybe he's just looking for a trap."

Qin Feng said, "Wei Xi has always been thoughtful. Let's hear what she has to say."

"If it were just a trap, there should be some clues," Wei Xi lowered his voice, "but there are so many things on this floor. If we really search through them, three quarters of an hour will not be enough."

"It can be seen that this level is not looking for a mechanism at all."

"This round is to stay in the secret realm for three days," Wei Xi sorted out his thoughts bit by bit. "Why do we emphasize entering the secret realm within three quarters of an hour?"

"Now that Wei Xi mentioned that," Feng Xiaotian quickly lowered his voice, "three quarters of an hour is indeed unnecessary. It's only been a quarter of an hour, and the team has already arrived."

"What's going on?" Yun Qing asked excitedly.

"I'm afraid we're not in the secret realm yet," Wei Xi glanced at the people around him, observing their movements. "The first level is just a cover. We can't enter the secret realm from this level."
