"Since you can break out of my Misty Wood Village and break my paper formation, it won't be difficult for me to be for you, you can continue to move forward. But then, it's not so easy. ”

As soon as I finished speaking, a white light lit up in front of my eyes. The white light dissipated, and I reappeared in front of the huge nanmu, but there was one less steamed bun on the bluestone slab as a tribute.

I was wondering whether I should continue on or return, and just as I was undecided, a familiar figure appeared in front of me.

"Xiaohu. ”

The person who came was Xiao Hu, who ran away from the L City Hospital last time, and he was wearing a camouflage suit and smiling at me.

"Zhang Tianyu, long time no see. ”

I took two steps forward, "I forgot, you're a puppeteer too. ”

He still had that smile on his face, "You don't stay in L City, why are you here? This is not where you should be, go back!"

"I want to see Ban Yuzhuang. ”

"That's too unfortunate, he has been dead for many years, and now the puppet gate, the dragons have no leader, and the bosses in various places are fighting for the position of the door master, so don't come to this troubled water. ”

"What if I have to go?"

"Then I can't help it, but for the sake of old acquaintances, I'll give you a word of advice, don't be used by people with intentions. ”

With that, he turned and disappeared into the woods.

Gu Lei asked me to bring Ban Yuzhuang back, with his ability, if Ban Yuzhuang died, it was impossible for him not to know, which means that Xiao Hu was lying to me just now. But on the way here, I first met Lin Yushuang, the female apprentice of Ban Yuzhuang, in Xiaozhu in the middle of the lake, and then met the insect king who had a relationship with L City, as soon as they disappeared, I was besieged by puppets, and when I came here, I met a mysterious white-robed man who claimed to be an apprentice of Ban Yuzhuang, and then met Xiaohu.

The Worm King and Xiaohu knew me, but the two people who claimed to be Ban Yuzhuang's apprentices didn't know me.

Climbing up a small slope, there is a gazebo, the stone table of the pavilion is full of wine and food, it seems that it has just been made, and the chicken, duck and fish are still steaming. The flask is particularly delicate and made of sterling silver, with three glasses next to the flask.

By this time it was already dark, and the moon was hanging in the middle of it, and the white moonlight looked particularly desolate.

I walked into the gazebo and heard a woman's voice in the distance.

"Raise a glass to invite Mingyue, and the shadow becomes a trio. ”

I looked towards the place where the voice came from, and a woman in a white robe walked slowly, and she saluted me, "Childe is here alone, drink a glass of sake, warm up!" ”

Putting down the wine glass, I picked up the other hand and held it in front of me, I looked at the delicate face of the white-robed woman, "You just said that there are three people in the shadow, where is the other person?"

She covered her mouth and smiled, "It seems that Childe doesn't know the meaning of this poem, so it's okay, please drink this cup and let the little woman tell you about it." ”

I reached out and took the wine glass, and drank it down, and the wine ran down my throat and exploded in my stomach, and a warm current flowed through my body, so strong.

She made a gesture of invitation to the table, "These dishes are specially made by the slave family for the son, please sit down and taste it!"

"You are also Ban Yuzhuang's apprentice?"

She shook her head with a smile on her face, "I don't know what Childe has to do with the master?"

"There are some questions I want to ask him for a question or two. ”

She picked up the chopsticks and held them in front of me with both hands, "I don't know if Childe has any doubts, say it, the slave family may be able to answer it for Childe, and save Childe a trip in vain." ”

I didn't answer, "I have to ask my question in person." ”

She looked at me expressionlessly, "So, you want to toast and not eat and drink!"

With that, her face turned like a panny, and orange smoke emerged from between the red fangs.

I flipped the table in front of me and she flew to her feet, the broken cups and saucers on the floor levitating.

She stretched out her bright red claws and grabbed at me, and the suspended cups and saucers flew at me.

"Five Heavenly Spirits, Iron Shield. ”

I grabbed the iron shield with one hand and fended off those cups and saucers, but the white-robed woman appeared behind me in an instant, and her bright red claws struck me in the back.

The black dress that Gu Lei gave me was very effective, it was not broken at all, but the huge force still knocked me out. I did a sideflip in the air, grabbed the trunk, spun back and landed in front of her.

"It seems that if I don't defeat you today, I won't be able to move on. ”

She didn't speak, but sprayed a thick orange smoke at me, especially choking, and very strong, and in an instant the surroundings were enveloped in smoke, and the fierce mountain wind could not blow it away.

This smoke directly deprived me of my three senses, making me unable to see anything, hear anything, and smell nothing.

I panicked when I lost my three senses, and I didn't know how to fight back, but I was attacked by her several times. Knocked me to the ground, and although I struggled to get up, it didn't last a few seconds and it was the same consequence.

After being beaten for a long time, it made me calm down, the original dantian shattered place slowly gathered a golden light, and from the golden light derived red, green, blue three-color light, from the dantian straight to the heavenly spirit, and then wandered around the body, even the wind on my hair can be clearly felt, as if I and nature are integrated.

I seem to be able to feel the flow of air around me, and my senses are gradually becoming clearer, and I can feel the changes in my surroundings without using my eyes.

A blast of wind hit, and I reached out and grabbed her attacking claws, "This time it's up where you run." ”

I raised my hand and punched her in the face. Then, when the smoke cleared, all three of my senses returned, and the white-robed woman was gone, except for a broken mask of Prajna thrown on the ground.

I bent down and tried to pick up the mask, but I didn't expect the mountain wind to blow, and the mask turned into powder and disappeared into the mountain forest.

I didn't rush to leave, but sat down cross-legged, thinking about the breath in the dantian just now, sometimes warm, sometimes cold, sometimes hot. Later, I learned from the Xuandu Conference that this is the Sanhua Gathering.

When I ran this qi and walked through the meridians of my whole body, I felt that my cultivation had reached a higher level, and it seemed that I was going to compete with these masters a lot, which was very helpful to my cultivation.

In the early morning, Mt. Cuiyun Lan is shrouded in a cloud of mist, and walking on the mountain road is like walking in the clouds, which seems to be the origin of the name of this peak.

Halfway up the mountain, I met Xiao Hu in camouflage again, and he was surprised to see me.

"Were you okay last night?"

I looked around, and there was no movement, "What can I do?"

He sighed, "I can't hide from what I should have come, I didn't expect your cultivation to become so high in half a year." ”

I walked up to him, "Are you here to stop me from seeing Ban Yuzhuang?"

"I'm still self-aware, and with my ability, it's completely like a mantis arm to deal with you. ”

"In that case, for the sake of the old friendships, you can show me the way! I don't want to hurt any of your puppet sects, I just want to meet your masters. ”

"Why don't you believe what I say? ”

"Then I'm going to pay my respects in front of his mourning hall, otherwise I'm not here for nothing?"

Xiao Hu's expression was quite embarrassed, "Do you have to wade into this troubled water?" I am for your good, listen to my advice, go back!"

As soon as he said this, I thought of something, "The back in front of that wooden building is the shore, and you got it up?"

He nodded, "That's right, the master of the door specially explained before he died, and he must protect you thoroughly." ”

"So, your master knows me?"

He nodded, "Not only do I know, according to the words of the door master, he and you are a lifelong friendship." ”

He said that, but why didn't I have any impressions?

"Those who stopped me didn't mean to protect me, they all wanted my life, and none of them told me that your master is gone, including the insect king I saw in L City. ”

He looked around, "I can't tell you why, because they don't know that the master of the gate is gone, and you are definitely not her opponent who is the real master of the puppet door now." ”

"How do you know if you don't try, you don't have to persuade me anymore, the road ahead is my own choice, that is, Longtan Tiger's Den, I also decided to break into it. ”

"Then you can do it yourself! ”

With that, two silver threads flew out of his hands, which were difficult to see with the naked eye, and led him to the depths of the jungle.

I glanced towards the place where he had disappeared, and then continued up the hill, but not long after I left, a bloody human head flew behind me, landed in front of me, and rolled down at my feet.

It's not someone else, it's Xiaohu's head, I didn't expect him to be killed by his peers.

I held Xiaohu's head, "Maybe your advice is right, but you have not been spared, I will definitely find out the truth and give you justice." So I went under a pine tree, dug a hole with my bare hands, and buried his head in it.

Along the way, I didn't meet any strange people or buildings, until I reached the top of the mountain, I saw the wooden building that Gu Lei showed me.

The entire wooden building is blue, and even the roof tiles are turquoise, and when the sun shines, the roof reflects a comfortable light. The building is made of legendary timber as the main material, and has a total height of five floors, and a red lantern hangs outside the window on each floor. I roughly counted one hundred and eight red lanterns. Although it was daytime, the one hundred and eight lanterns were all lit, and the light source inside was so weak that it was impossible to tell whether it was an electric light or a candle flame.

There is a huge abyss between Jianmulou and me, and if you want to cross it, you can only pass it from the bluestone bridge on the edge of the cliff. The bluestone bridge is very wide, and it is estimated that it can accommodate two large off-road vehicles driving side by side, but the bridge body does not know whether it is strong or not, because the bridge is made of very little material, and the whole bridge is almost suspended between two cliffs.

As soon as I stepped on the bluestone bridge, the mountain wind on both sides blew violently, I looked down, the abyss, the bottom of the mountain was a cloud of white fog, and I couldn't see the bottom of the mountain at all.

I thought that there would be someone who could stop me in such a place, but until I came to the door of the wooden building, I didn't see anyone.

I knocked on the heavy door, but there was no response, I tried to push, and the door squeaked open.

I put my head in and looked left and right, but I didn't find anything out of the ordinary, and I didn't notice anyone.
