In the dead silence, there was only the inaudible sound of breathing between teammates.

In the darkness, only a faint light illuminated the way forward, leading everyone to move forward slowly.

Everyone walked carefully.

Every step was taken very cautiously and carefully, for fear that one might accidentally step on the wrong spot and fall into the dark abyss outside the stone staircase.

The light could only reach five or six stone steps in front and back, and they seemed to be wrapped in darkness.

With every step forward, the darkness behind him also took a step closer.

The endless darkness seemed to be following them, like a shadow.

As if a wild beast was ready to engulf them at any time

"How long do we have to go!"

Fat Wang scratched his head irritably, feeling a little tired of the darkness.

The group of them walked intermittently for who knows how long, but they never saw the end point, which made him a little impatient.

"Who knows."

Ding Sitian felt that her voice was a little numb when she spoke.

Not only her, but others also felt the same.

When a person stays in the dark for a long time, all the senses will diminish.

Even people's thinking will react sluggishly to some extent, as if that person's soul is lost in the darkness.

Su Mu looked at the state of everyone, and his heart trembled slightly.

It felt like his previous guesses seemed That's correct. This should be the Soul-Suspending Staircase that Hu Ba and others encountered in the original work.

He remembered that he had seen an explanation of the Soul-Suspended Soul Staircase.

The Soul-Suspended Staircase is composed of a large number of stone steps. , is arranged in an extremely dangerous abyss underground.

The two sides of the stone steps are bottomless, and the stone steps and the surrounding area are coated with an ancient light-absorbing paint.

On the closed stone steps of the Suspended Soul Staircase, the fear of being unable to reach your fingertips , will gradually wear down the person's body and mind, thus firmly trapping the intruder...

Su Mu is still thinking, everyone else has already felt that something is wrong.

"Have we encountered a ghost and hit a wall?"

Fat Wang suddenly asked everyone. They have been walking on the stone steps now, but they have been unable to get out of this place.

It is indeed like encountering a ghost hitting a wall. It is not surprising that he has such an idea.

As soon as he said this, everyone It was as if they had an epiphany, and they all asked whether it was like Fatty Wang had guessed, and he had encountered a ghost.

"If it is true, then how should we crack this ghost wall? It seems that the things we carry with us are not equipped to deal with this aspect.……"

Ding Sitian reached for something on her back, but after searching for a long time, she found that there was nothing useful at all.

"what to do? I don't want to die trapped here……"

"I don’t want to either, but let’s think of a solution first!"

Although Hu Bayi is also very calm, after all, it is a supernatural incident, so he is still a little panicked.

Even someone who has always been very self-aware feels a little nervous at this moment, and can't help but look at the pensive face. On Su Mu

"Husband, what are you thinking about?"Xueli Yang pulled Su Mu's hand and asked doubtfully.

Su Mu looked up and saw that everyone's eyes had been focused on him at some point.

"I was wondering if what we encountered was just a physical mechanism, rather than some kind of ghost hitting the wall?"

Su Mu did not bluntly say that he knew what kind of environment they were in and what kind of agencies they encountered. Instead, he used words to guide everyone to think. After all, what he himself knew could not be stated directly and clearly. In such a way It's really hard to explain

"Why do you think so?"

Shirley Yang was very puzzled. This situation is not a ghost beating the wall. What could it be? And is there such a powerful mechanism?

Su Mu did not show off and directly pointed out what he had discovered.

He turned to Shi The edge of the ladder came closer, looked to the side, then pointed to a stone step and said:

"Did you see that?"

After hearing this, everyone boldly approached the edge of the stone steps and looked in the direction that Su Mu pointed.

They saw that the stone steps that Su Mu pointed at were at the corner of the corner, showing a crescent shape, but everyone looked at it. After a long while, I didn't find anything special.

"Is there anything special about that? Hu Bayi asked

"Remember this."

Su Mu didn't say much, but walked forward directly, reciting the number of each stone step as he walked.

When they reached a value, everyone discovered the crescent shape again.

Continue to move forward. As they walked forward, the number of stone steps between the crescents was not consistent at each turn.

However, when they reached a certain place, they repeated the number of steps from the first time.

It seemed that after going around in circles, they came back again. Reached the starting point

"Any ideas?"Su Mu stopped and looked at everyone and asked.

Everyone was thinking, and the smart Shirley Yang was the first to think of the key.

"Are we going in a circle over and over again?" Shirley Yang looked shocked.

Su Mu snapped her fingers and praised:"My wife, you are so smart!"

The unexpected confession made Shirley Yang blush for a moment, and then she reacted and gave Su Mu a roll of her eyes.

When did this happen? She's so talkative!

Although everyone also felt a sense of nausea, after thinking about it carefully , found that it seems to be really the case

"But, have we been going down?"

It was Shirley Yang who had a different opinion. Others also felt strange when she said this.

"Yes, we seem to be going down all the time. How can the stairs that go down form a circle? Hu Bayi also said doubtfully.

"And the numbers you just counted may be repeated at certain intervals, right?"

Fat Wang also expressed his doubts with some uncertainty.

Su Mu knew that the conclusion he said was a bit unacceptable.

After all, they could clearly see that every step they walked was going downwards. , normally it is absolutely impossible to connect them together.

But this is also the ingenuity of the mechanism of this hanging soul ladder.

"Well, let's do an experiment."

Su Mu didn't give any more explanation. Instead, he took out a long rope from his backpack.

He looked around at everyone, and then his eyes fell on Hu Bayi first. He stepped forward and took out the rope in his hand. Handed him a section

"Lao Hu, you hold the rope and stay here. We will continue walking, leaving one person at a certain distance. I can guarantee that as long as we keep walking, we will return to the same place."

Everyone thought for a while and agreed to Su Mu's suggestion.

So Hu Bayi took the rope, lit a candle and stayed there, while the others held the long rope and continued walking........
