cpa300_4; Walking into the stone house where the fire was roaring, the Purple Demon Emperor only saw some stone frames and stone tables, as well as burning books and cloth quilts, not to mention human figures, even ghosts.

In the confusion of his thoughts, the Purple Phantom Demon Emperor did not go to look through the scrolls placed on the stone shelves, but was thinking about Nangong Yi's hiding place.

It turned out that just when Nangong Yi was about to sneak into the stone house of Nanshan Spirit Ape, he suddenly thought that many scriptures and secret books in Nanshan Spirit Ape's study were still clearly displayed on the bookshelf. If these rare things are discovered and taken away by others, it is indeed difficult to predict whether they will be a blessing or a curse. I also thought of Nanshan Spirit Ape's previous advice, if I leave this place, I can burn these scriptures and classics to get rid of the troubles in my heart.

Thinking of this, Nangong Yi took a look and paced into the study again, using the quilt as a guide, dripping a little tongue fire oil, and then lit the quilt with a candle. Although the quilt was dripping with tongue fireworks, there was very little of it. After it was lit, the flames burned all the way down the trail of the tongue fire oil before finally burning to the bookshelf.

At this time, Nangong Yi had already quietly slipped into the stone house of Nanshan Spirit Ape, put on the mackerel mask that Nanshan Spirit Ape had given him before, and then turned on the machine and entered the corridor through the secret door under the table.

Nangong Yi went down the steps, holding the fire candle in one hand and the stone wall on the side of the road with the other, and went down the steps without taking a few steps. Under the glow of the candle flame, I saw that the road in front of me was not big, only half a zhang wide on the left and right, and about one zhang high. The cobblestone on the stone wall is abrupt and extremely uneven, and in some places it protrudes more than a foot, and at first glance, it seems that someone is secretly hiding on the side of the stone wall. Rao is Nangong Yi is bold, and now he is walking alone in this empty road in the black and dark winter, and he can't help but feel a little worried in his heart.

Fortunately, the terrain of this road is quite flat, not like a deep mountain road with potholes and bumps. Nangong Yi followed the instructions of Nanshan Spirit Ape and walked all the way along the Yongdao. A pair of eyes probed around by the light of the candle flame, and their ears were like small beasts that came out at night to feed, listening carefully, in case suddenly some monster or bird of prey jumped out of the corridor and attacked him.

The strange rocks on both sides of the road and on the top of the road are craggy and spread out in layers, but they don't look like they have been chopped with knives and axes, but they seem to have been born naturally. The faint candle flame shone on the relatively smooth stone wall, reflecting the starry light points. As he walked forward, the sight in front of him meandered like flowing water.

After walking like this, there was a ticking sound in the empty corridor in front of me. When Nangong Yi heard this, his heart tightened, and he stopped at the moment and listened carefully. When I heard it, I realized that it was the sound of dripping water in the corridor. He suddenly remembered the water tank in the Nanshan Spirit Ape Grotto, and the water in the tank was the spring water that flowed down from the mountain. If there is a mountain spring on the mountain, there must be a source. The water spread down the cracks in the stones, and in the meantime, most of them became droplets attached to the top of the road.

Thinking about this, Nangong Yi quickened his pace and walked forward. After walking like this for a while, the sound of the ticking water turned into a gurgling stream, and there seemed to be something in the distance.

Nangong Yi wondered in his heart, could it be that there is still a spring in this road? Thinking in his heart, he didn't stop at all, he wanted to see what the sound of water in front of him was!

After a long time, the candle flame in his hand suddenly swayed from side to side, like a crimson fairy, wanting to dance. For a while, the things in the eyes inevitably disappeared and could not be seen clearly.

Seeing this, Nangong Yi hurriedly raised his right hand to take the candle flame to a go, and then he saw clearly that there was a faint light coming from not far ahead.

Nangong Yi is so smart, he saw the candle flame flickering, and said secretly in his heart: "The candle flame flickering because there is a wind blowing it, this road is full of mountain walls on the left and right, naturally there will be no wind; If the wind can blow in from the front, it means that the exit of the road is not far ahead!"

Nangong Yi saw that he was about to walk out of this corridor, and he was inevitably a little excited and a little nervous in his heart, what was outside the corridor?

The farther he went, the clearer the sound of the water became, and gradually he saw the exit ahead by the light of the candlelight.

Originally, the exit of this road was at the place where a mountain stream flowed, and the mountain stream flowed down from a certain place on the top of the mountain, and meandered all the way along the mountain wall. The mountain stream flowing down flows into a stone pool at the entrance of the Yongdao, and there is a crack more than an inch wide on the left side of the stone pool, which submerges into the ground along the stone wall on the left side of the road. The clear mountain stream flowed out of the stone pool, seeping into the ground in the crevices of the stones. Because of this, there is not a trace of water veins in the corridor. And when I looked out from the corridor just now, the shining thing was the curtain of water hanging from the top of the cave entrance.

After Nangong Yi saw these clearly, he no longer hesitated, and strode along the rocks stacked at the Yongdao crossing. The figure flashed, and the candle flame with both hands came out from under the water curtain. Even though he flickered very fast, he was still drenched in water by the flowing mountain stream, but fortunately the fire candle in his hand was not extinguished.

Out of the corridor and looking around, as far as the eye can see, out of the endless darkness, is the 351 columns of 67 lines of ancient trees and grass. At this time, the night was not yet deep, and a bright moon hung in the east, slowly moving westward.

The moonlight was cold, and the night breeze was bleak, soaking through Nangong Yi's thin clothes, making him look extremely lonely. The sound of insects chirping in the ears is faint, intermittently high and low, as if the night insects are expressing sleepless worries. Thinking that Shicai was still with Nanshan Spirit Ape, and now that he was alone in the wilderness, Nangong Yi couldn't help but sigh sadly. The originally beautiful insect chirping sounded in his ears, like a sad parting song, like a dream.

Although he felt lonely and helpless at the moment, God did not let him slack off in the slightest, and he had to send Nalan Wuyuan to the Treodle Mountain Pagoda safely. Although I don't know how many ups and downs and difficulties there will be on the way, how can I regret being entrusted with loyalty!

Thinking of this, Nangong Yi raised the candle flame in his hand while raising his eyes to look around. Suddenly, a trail to the northwest caught his eye. The trail looks unremarkable, but the weeds are only an inch tall and look like they've been manicured.

Nangong Yi said secretly: "Most of this immortal valley is only inhabited by Nanshan seniors, since there is a trail here that is thought to have been opened up, there are ten * left by Nanshan seniors themselves with scimitars to cut the messy grass." Besides, only me and him know about this road, and even if others want to come somewhere, they will never open a path to the foot of the mountain. ”

Thinking like this, Nangong Yi strode forward and followed the path towards the west. After walking about fifty zhang, a towering ancient tree appeared in front of him, blocking the way head-on. Looking to the side again, three ancient trees rose into the sky at four corners. In the middle of these four towering trees, there is a wooden house one foot high and one square circle.

The exterior of the hut is made of the outer bark of a wide round tree, which is cylindrical around a circle, and is covered with several layers of branches and vines. I don't know what method the Nanshan Spirit Ape used to put those branches and vines on top of the wooden house, and the vines where the branches and leaves were located were full of vitality and did not wither. At first glance, this wooden house looks like a low tree, and this room is hidden in the middle of four tall ancient trees, if you don't go in and take a closer look, it is really difficult to find for a while.

At this time, the door of this hidden and remote wooden house was being hidden, and it was as quiet as death. Nangong Yi said secretly: "Fortunately, Nanshan's predecessors told me before that Sister Wuyuan lives outside this corridor, if it weren't for that, when a person comes to this barren mountain and valley, when he encounters such a monster that looks like a tree, not a tree, a house, and a house, he will definitely think that it is a place where ghosts live." ”

Nangong Yi took a deep breath, looked around, and saw that there was no movement, then he raised the candle in his hand and walked in front of the wooden door, and gently raised his hand and knocked it three times.

Right now, in this eerie valley, the night birds have long been asleep, and although the insects are chirping, they are only faint. If you don't listen carefully, the valley will be silent, and there will be no sound. And now Nangong Yi raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door, and the sound of "tuk tuk" suddenly spread around, and under the silence, it was like a mountain ghost suddenly coughing.

As soon as the voice started, the wooden door opened from the inside in an instant, and a childish and delicate face appeared in the glow of Nangong Yi Candle without a hint.

At first, that cute smiling face still had a hint of excitement and a smile, but as soon as he saw that Nangong Yi was a stranger, he immediately turned into surprise and dazedness.

The face suddenly said, "Who are you, Uncle Ape?" The voice was tender and crisp, like a silver bell ringing softly, making people feel so uncomfortable.

Nangong Yi looked at that cute smiling face and smiled slightly: "Don't be afraid, I'm Brother Dichen, it's Uncle Ape who asked me to come here to find you!"

On that little pink face, a pair of eyes as clear as water suddenly blinked, and asked, "Why, Uncle Ape didn't come to sleep with Yuan'er that night?"

When Nangong Yi heard this, he was stunned for a moment, but then he understood the words of this little girl. His heart moved, and he said secretly: "It turns out that every night in Nanshan, the seniors of Nanshan will come here to sleep with Sister Wuyuan through that corridor. No wonder I've always been curious in my heart, Nanshan's predecessor dared to throw such a young child here alone, and he wasn't afraid that something would happen to her! Right now, it seems that as long as he has time, he will most likely pass through that corridor and come here to take care of Wuyuan's sister!"

After wanting to listen to that verse, Nangong Yi said again: "Uncle Ape can't come today because of something, so he specially sent them to take care of you." You see, this is the token he gave me!"

As he spoke, Nangong Yi took out a two-inch-long jade hairpin from his bosom and placed it in front of the candle. Under the candlelight, the jade hairpin reflected a pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water, and what is even more strange is that the mandarin ducks and water in this pattern are actually active.

The ninety-seventh time was left alone

After the girl saw this jade hairpin, she opened the wooden door and said to Nangong Yi: "Then Brother Dichen, come in quickly, Uncle Ape said that it is very cold outside at night!"

Nangong Yi saw that this little girl finally believed in herself, and she was overjoyed, and immediately flashed into the wooden house.

The furnishings of the hut were very simple, with only a bed, a wooden chair and a square table, and the rest of the things were some of the daily utensils. There was a candle burning on the wooden table, and it was completely invisible from the outside of the wooden house.

Nangong Yi hadn't spoken after entering the wooden house, but the little girl suddenly spoke: "Brother Dichen, you came here tonight, but you are going to take me to find my father and my mother?"

Nangong Yi was stunned when he heard this, and then he remembered that the little girl in front of him regarded Nanshan Spirit Ape as an uncle, not as a father. If this is the case, then the Nanshan Spirit Ape must have told the little girl that his father is still alive. But why didn't he tell her that her mother had died?

Thinking of this, Nangong Yi was stunned again, this little girl's father is still alive, and he is also the Tongtian Demon Venerable of the Demon Clan. So who are his own parents, and are they still alive now?

In this quiet and cold wooden house, Nangong Yi thought of his parents for the first time and thought of his own life experience. But there was only this little girl at the moment, and she could never tell herself the answer. Faintly moved in his heart, he remembered that Nanshan Spirit Ape had said that he could restore people's memories of the Mo Forget Spring, and couldn't help but secretly make up his mind that when he escorted this little sister to the Panic Mountain Tower, he must find the Nine Immortal Mountain Mo Forget Spring to recover his memory, and then look for his parents!

"Brother Dichen, isn't it?, why don't you speak?" Nalan Wuyuan saw that Nangong Yi Wu was stunned by himself, and asked again.

Nangong Yi came back to his senses, smiled slightly and hurriedly said, "Yes, I'm just taking you to your father!"

Nalan Wuyuan's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and his eyes turned twice and said, "Brother Dichen, do you know where my father is?"

Nangong Yi said: "Sister Wuyuan, let me tell you, your father lives in the Treodle Tower, which is very beautiful. Moreover, your father is still the Tongtian Demon Venerable among the two major Yin Yang Demon Venerables of the Demon Clan, and the magic spells are very tight!"

Nalan Wuyuan heard Nangong Yi say that his father was the Demon Clan's Tongtian Demon Venerable, although he didn't know what the Demon Clan was and what the Tongtian Demon Venerable was, but when he saw Nangong Yi's face excited, and he couldn't help but be happy in his heart. secretly thought, my father is probably also a very amazing person.

It's just that she didn't have a complete concept of what was great, so she asked again: "Is my father as powerful as Uncle Ape?" Uncle Ape can make all the fierce beasts in this Immortal Valley dare not approach my cabin, can my father do it?"

Nangong Yi heard Nalan Wuyuan ask, and his mouth was suddenly dumbfounded.
