Chapter 36: Rescue Operation (II)
?
The old man looked at Situ Wenming, who was a little helpless, with a smile on his face, and said, "Okay, little mosquito, but the old man is very curious, how can you be so unfortunate and imprisoned here, did you deliberately want to break into the enemy's interior to come up with this strategy?"
"Oh my God, senior brother, don't be sarcastic about me, I think you also speculated on the layout of this Soul Killing Array, but it's a pity that our group was ambushed by the enemy when we first came here last night, and somehow we were sealed with mana in a daze, and we didn't even know who the enemy was and were locked up here. Situ Wenming said with an unwilling look of anger.
"Okay, little mosquito, after becoming the 'door' master, your irritable temper hasn't changed much. ”
Yuan Shuai listened to it and stepped forward to 'interject' and said, "Could it be that he was poisoned by Gu and couldn't activate his mana?"
"Well, it's quite possible. The old man stepped forward and patted Situ Wenming on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Poor little mosquito, you have suffered, I think the old man was also persecuted by this poisonous Gu, and it took the boss's strength to spit out that thing." ”
"Ahem, cough, Xuanqing and Xuanming, it's not time for the two masters to talk about it, it's the key to rescue us from here as soon as possible. A man in his early thirties on the side said with a wry smile to the two elders.
Yuan Shuai fixed his eyes and saw that this man was also an acquaintance, his name was Wu Guang, the road name was Qingchen, when Yuan Shuai and the old man lived in Qingyun Taoist Temple, he was ordered by the head of the sect to send some funds and daily necessities every once in a while, so Yuan Shuai was also quite familiar with him.
"Yes, old man, don't complain to Uncle Wenming anymore, it's important to leave now quickly. After that, Yuan Shuai took the bloody wooden sword and was about to step forward and cut off the chain that Situ Wen had ordered them to detain, but at this time, the old man stopped Yuan Shuai's actions.
"Don't be busy, don't rescue them yet!"
"What old man, where did you take the wrong 'medicine', now that the time is so short, you still have the time to play around. Yuan Shuai was puzzled.
"Do you think I'm joking with such a serious face, I mean you also heard the conversation between the two guards just now It seems that the Eternal Life Sect is going to hold a grand sacrificial ceremony tonight, but Wen Ming They are the key sacrificial items, if we use this to lure out the Nangong Apostle and the gang and then wipe them out, what a hilarious plan it would be. ”
Yuan Shuai and the others thought about it and felt that what the old man said was quite reasonable, so that they could not only attract the Nangong Apostles to wipe them out, but also destroy the 'yin' plot they wanted to plan in one fell swoop, this kind of best of both worlds can indeed be described as cunning and big.
"Well, senior brother, you're right, we're willing to use ourselves as 'bait' to assist you!" Situ replied enthusiastically.
"Woo, Uncle Shi, you must rescue us in time, I don't want to die so early. Wu Guang pitifully said to the old man and the others.
Just as the group in the water prison was discussing the specific details, the old man who was still smiling suddenly frowned, and suddenly turned his head to warn everyone: "Be careful, there is a demon!" Then, the feng shui compass in Yuan Shuai's arms also sounded a corresponding alarm.
Facing the dim environment of the underground dungeon, Yuan Shuai hurriedly took out the gossip mirror and 'shot' the light on the demon mirror into the water dungeon, but there was no trace of any monster on the water surface deep with Qi 'legs'.
"Everyone be careful, monsters lurk in the water!" Yuan Shuai warned everyone cautiously with a gossip mirror in one hand and a bloodwood sword in the other.
"Xiao Yuanzi protects everyone, this monster doesn't seem to be deep, and the old man can do it alone. As he spoke, the old man took out a spirit talisman from his bosom and threw it into the water, then clasped his hands together and shouted, "Waterspout, Ma Mi, Ma Mi!"
A whirlpool swirled out of thin air in the water dungeon, but in the whirlpool, everyone was surprised to see a two-meter-long giant toothed crocodile with a bloody mouth on its hard armor.
"Damn, it turned out to be a crocodile that has become a 'fine', how can there still be such a thing in this water prison!"
The crocodile 'spirit' lurking in the water no longer hides when it sees that its actions have been exposed, and it opens its mouth to the old man as a water arrow, but this kind of pediatric attack is easily defused by the old man with just a wave of his hand.
"Fall!" the old man pointed with his hand, and a boulder at the top of the water dungeon smashed the crocodile 'essence' in the water from the sky.
After all, the crocodile 'essence' began to have wisdom, and seeing that the old man's spell was powerful, he didn't dare to take it easily, so he turned over and dodged the boulder that fell from the sky, but instead plunged into the water again and disappeared.
The water surface returned to its previous calm, and everyone held their breath and watched cautiously every move around them, they didn't know which direction the crocodile 'spirit' would attack next time, but they were also afraid that the noise in the water prison would attract the other Immortals.
"Hmph, little guy, do you think I don't know you if you're stuffed in the stinky ditch, and you're a clever beast!" the old man took out a spirit rune from his hands, and then pulled up the magic seal at a very fast speed and shouted, "Earth Burst!"
The otherwise calm water surface seemed to boil in an instant, and bubbles continued to rise in all directions. Suddenly, I heard a muffled roar, and a sharp stone pillar rose from the ground to push the crocodile 'spirit' out of the water, and then one after another stone pillars continued to rise from the bottom of the dungeon, so that the crocodile 'spirit' had nowhere to hide.
Seeing that the crocodile 'essence' was powerless to fight back, the old man did not hesitate, and the last golden thunder talisman blasted directly away, instantly sending the poor worm who had not had time to struggle to the Western Elysium.
"Huh~ I can't urge the mana these days, and I'm about to be suffocated, the little guy counts your back just in my hands, so I have to use you directly to practice!" The old man clapped his palms as if he had done an extremely insignificant thing.
Everyone just breathed a sigh of relief, only to see a low roar behind them from far and near, as fast as lightning, Yuan Shuai and the others hurriedly turned around in shock, and saw a wrist-thick black-veined snake 'Jing' rising from another corner. Yuan Shuai couldn't care about being surprised, and the bloodwood sword holding the bloodwood sword in the condition of reflex was a red 'colored' sword wind.
The black-veined snake 'essence' screamed in pain and wanted to run back into the water, but Yuan Shuai gave it a chance to escape, and the other holding the gossip mirror directly urged the golden light of the demon to restrain the black-veined snake 'essence', and then when the other party was desperately struggling, first a talisman completely sealed its action, and then Yuan Shuai urged the demon suppression tower to collect another poor worm with a little back into the tower.
After cleaning up the two monsters that had not yet become a climate in one breath, the dungeon finally regained its calm again. This kind of small scene of fighting was already an appetizer for both Yuan Shuai and the old man, but for the other two more novice disciples of the same 'sect', it was as if they had experienced a thrilling fight.
"There are still monsters in captivity in this underground dungeon, have they already discovered that we are lurking?"
"I don't think so, if the Nangong Apostle really finds our traces and wants to use this to catch us, then the two little demon 'spirits' placed in this water prison will also look down on us too much, in my opinion, these two demons probably belong to the guards who guarded the water prison a long time ago, and they have only cultivated into 'essence' because of the long time. ”
Hearing the old man say this, everyone finally put their minds at ease, but fortunately, the fight just now did not attract the attention of others, and the old man Yuan Shuai discussed the specific details of the night with the other four people and hid his body again......
On the night of July 13th, there was a feeling of 'gloom' in the night, but in the underground palace of the Eternal Life Cult, it was unusually brightly lit.
The entire Tongguan Town, both men and women, young and old, gathered in a huge underground hall, and their expressions were 'excited' waiting for the arrival of midnight.
On the other side, under the leadership of Liu Yang, a team of guards came to the entrance of the underground underground dungeon, and when they saw the two guards who were still asleep, Liu Yang's face instantly changed.
"Oh no, someone broke in!"
Liu Yang hurriedly ran into the underground underground dungeon with his guards, but to his relief, the four prisoners ordered by Situ Wen were still being held at the end of the water dungeon.
"It's a false alarm, damn it, I almost thought it was Yuan Shuai and their gang that broke in. Liu Yang wiped the beads of sweat overflowing from his forehead, and said viciously to his subordinates, "What the hell are those two guards, they are still sleeping at this time, this is to let the sect leader know that it is okay, and change the two of them to remove them from their positions and demote them back to ordinary sect members." ”
"Yes!"
Another guard pressed a mechanism, and with a dull opening of the gates, water from the underground dungeon suddenly flowed out of the various drainage pipes.
"It's really strange that those two guys didn't come out of the 'hole' today, which saved us a lot of trouble!" However, how did Liu Yang know that the demons in the two water prisons had already been killed and injured and easily disposed of by Yuan Shuai and the old man.
Coming to Situ Wenming and the others along the wet corridor of the 'tide', Liu Yang said to the four people with a hypocritical smile: "Today is the annual grand festival of the Sect of Contempt, so the order of the sect leader is to invite all distinguished guests to come and participate." ”
"Phew~ Humpty Dumpty, is this what your church calls hospitality, invite us to join us? With that, a group of guards escorted the four people to the outside of the water prison.
However, at this time, Yuan Shuai and the old man, who were hiding in the dark, snickered at each other, and then followed closely behind everyone and walked towards the main hall together......
After a tortuous and complicated passage, everyone finally entered the main hall, but all the people's eyes instantly looked at the four of them in an instant, and Yuan Shuai and the two quietly climbed to a higher point in the main hall to look down on the audience.
"Basically, the people of the entire town have gathered here, Nangong Hao, what are they going to do?" Yuan Shuai asked quietly.
"It's not clear, let's wait and see how it changes, so as not to respond to all changes!" As soon as the old man's voice fell, he heard a thick and heavy gong sound from the main hall, and then Liu Yang walked to the front of the main hall and said loudly to all the sect members, "The annual ceremony of worshiping the immortal god begins now, ...... now?"
