Both Tie Niu and Red Apricot were frightened by the nervous look of the poplar, and they both stared at the grass and did not dare to move.

But after waiting for a long time, I didn't see any movement.

Bai Yang's heart was on Ding Lingling, and he really didn't want to waste more time, so he took a few steps forward and gently touched the grass with the camphor stick in his hand.

Silently, but terrifyingly, a long, strange centipede-like reptile crawled out of the grass.

It is said that it resembles a centipede, first of all, because it looks like a centipede, is brownish-yellow in color, and has many feet.

But it was too big, a foot long, and its color was much brighter than that of a centipede.

"Why do I think this thing looks so much like the Old Witch's Gu King, isn't it Lao Bai?" Iron Bull asked in a low voice.

Poplar also feels a bit like it.

However, Grandma Zu's Flying Gu King not only had wings, but also had a hook spines on his tail.

But the reptile in front of me has no hook spines on its tail, but it has two obvious front claws.

The centipede also has a pair of claws similar to the front claws, but the claws of the centipede are not very different from its feet, and they are far less large and obvious than the front claws of the reptile in front of them.

And no matter how big a centipede is, when it encounters a human again, its first reaction must be to burrow into the grass.

However, this reptile actually raised its upper body, raised its red-gray head high, and had a sharp mouth that was also very different from centipedes, and actually hissed, as if it was demonstrating a warning to Poplar and others.

"What kind of monster is this?" asked Hongxing in a whisper from behind.

"It doesn't matter what kind of monster it is, I'll kill it with a stick!" said Iron Bull, raising his stick to fight, but Poplar hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it.

"Can't fight, be careful to draw out its kind!" said Poplar.

The Iron Bull was so frightened that he immediately retracted the camphor stick.

The three of them didn't dare to move, but they kept looking at the grass on both sides, for fear that there would be other similar reptiles that would come out of the grass and attack them.

Thankfully, there have been no other crawlers.

The reptile may have seen that Poplar and the others were motionless, as if they were very proud to make a "hissing" sound again, and suddenly turned around and burrowed into the grass again.

Poplar and the others clearly saw that there was a red mark on the ground where the monster crawled.

But the marks scattered with the wind, and soon disappeared without a trace.

"I know what this is!" said Hong Xing suddenly.

Poplar Iron Bull immediately turned his head to look at her.

Legend has it that this centipede has red venom, and wherever it crawls, it will be like a soldering iron. If you are bitten by its sharp mouth, or clamped by its front claw, it will hurt even more to the bone marrow. ”

Poplar and Iron Bull were originally "lonely and unheard", but in Old Man Bai's notebook, there was no record of this kind of monster, presumably this kind of monster was not born and raised in the tomb.

So Poplar didn't say a word and continued on his way.

Tie Niu was originally following him, but at this time, he turned his body sideways and said to Hongxing: "What's the matter, let's go quickly! The thought of this kind of monster in this forest makes me feel furious!"

Hongxing was also covered in hair, and hurriedly walked in front of Tie Niu in two steps, and replaced Tie Niu to stay at the end.

Soon through the woods, there was an open grassy slope in front of me, and the grassy slope went up to the top of the hill.

Suddenly there was a huge building standing up there.

The building looked gray and damp, clearly old, with walls and roof covered in dark green moss.

The style of the building is a bit like a temple, but it does not have as many painted beams and carved edges and corners as temples.

On the whole, the building tends to be more sturdy and stable, and has abandoned a lot of fancy and ornate. Even the wooden materials most commonly used in the construction of temples have been replaced by black stone strips.

The building was facing the path, and a wide gate opened—

Because it is surrounded by high mountains on all sides, it is difficult to accurately judge the southeast and northwest, but this gate should be facing due south.

In other words, the building is exactly the best orientation in traditional Feng Shui: sitting north and facing south.

There is a very imposing plaque hanging above the gate, and although the flat forehead is also covered with moss, several large fonts are still legible.

And the font is in regular script, and Poplar recognizes it at a glance, it is the five words "Biyou Goddess Palace".

Hongxing suddenly took two steps forward, raised her head and looked at the plaque carefully, as if trying to see it clearly.

Tie Niu followed and said, "This is the five words of Biyou Goddess Palace, right?"

Hongxing ignored him, turned her head, and looked at a stone tablet standing on the left side of the gate.

The stele is full of inscriptions, which naturally records the origin of this building.

The inscription is also in regular script, and the poplars are basically recognized.

It's a pity that it's all in classical Chinese, and Bai Yang was pondering the meaning of the inscription, when he suddenly heard Tie Niu ask: "What's wrong with you, Hongxing, you seem to be very excited!"

Poplar turned his head and saw Hongxing glaring at Tie Niu.

Probably seeing Bai Yang turn his head to look at her, Hong Xing smiled and said, "I'm a little excited, I didn't expect that I actually know all the words on this inscription!"

"This should be regular script, don't talk about you, I know almost everything!" Tie Niu smiled.

Hongxing sneered and said, "You know everything, then you can help me translate!"

"This ...... Wen Yanwen, I don't know much!" Tie Niu scratched his scalp.

Bai Yang knew that Tie Niu's writing level was indeed quite poor, so he said: "This is to say that in the era of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, there was a prince named Xiao Changlin in the Great Qi of the Southern Dynasties, who lived in seclusion here with a Biyou goddess, and it was this prince who spent financial resources to build this palace. ”

As soon as he said this, Hongxing suddenly interjected and said, "I remember...... According to historical records, there was no one named Xiao Changlin in the Southern Dynasty Daqi, but there was a prince named Xiao Changmao who died young.

Bai Yang didn't expect Hongxing to be so knowledgeable about history, and Tie Niu even boasted directly, saying: "I didn't know that the Northern and Southern Dynasties were in that era, but I didn't expect Hongxing to be so knowledgeable that you even knew this kind of thing!"

Hong Xing glanced at him and said coldly: "I was originally an antique, I don't know the history thoroughly, and I was deceived so early that I even lost my capital?"

Tie Niu was right when he thought about it, so he smiled again.

Bai Yang's heart froze, and he suddenly remembered that Ding Sicheng told him that Hongxing was the young master of the Gleaning Sect.

However, Bai Yang's face did not move, and he only said: "What Hongxing said is not unreasonable! Since the history books record that a prince died young, it is very likely that this prince who accompanied the Biyou Goddess to live in seclusion is really the prince! The inscription says that the Biyou Goddess is immortal, and if this prince believes it to be true, it is not inconceivable that he would give up the throne in order to follow immortality!"

"Yes!" Hongxing nodded in approval, "The prince's name is Xiao Changmao, and there are exactly two wooden characters in the Mao character, so it is logical that he changed his name to Xiao Changlin!"

Neither Poplar nor Tie Niu knew which "mao" character would have two "wood" characters in it, but neither of them asked a question.

However, Hongxing raised her head, looked up at the tall and spacious building in front of her, and said: "Whether this Xiao Changlin is Xiao Changmao or not, but his identity as the prince of Great Qi must not be fake! And with the technical conditions at that time, to build such a magnificent building in this deep mountain, the difficulty of construction can be imagined, and Daqi will perish in just over 20 years, maybe it has something to do with the fact that too much financial resources have been spent on it!"

Poplar and Tie Niu'er heard that she knew a lot about these unknown histories, and couldn't help but secretly admire her. Especially Bai Yang felt that she, the young master of the Missing Sect, seemed to be really well-deserved.

"I think we'd better hurry in and see what kind of demon this Biyu Goddess is!" said Tie Niu.

Bai Yang nodded and said, "Let's be careful, don't forget this Biyu Goddess, but I don't know how many young men and women have been killed for thousands of years!"

Iron Bull agreed and walked up the steps in front of the gate, Poplar followed, and Hongxing followed behind the two.

The two gates were closed, and although there was green moss on them, it was nowhere near as much as on the walls.

Especially in the middle of the gate, it is smooth and dry, as if someone often pushes and pulls the door.

Tie Niu grabbed the camphor stick with one hand and pressed it on the door with the other hand and pushed it in.

With a "squeak", the door slowly opened inward.

Bai Yang and Hongxing were all nervous, Bai Yang simply threw away the camphor stick, and drew Ding Lingling's two short swords with both hands, ready to attack at any time.

But when the door was completely opened, Poplar Tieniu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

There was no "goddess" in front of them, but a quiet small room that was not very spacious.

Just from the outside, this house is majestic and spacious, but the width of this room in front of me is only seven or eight meters, and the depth is a little more than six meters at most.

Needless to say, there is space on the left and right sides of this house, as well as further inside.

However, on the left and right side walls, there is no portal or anything like that.

And this room, which is only about fifty square meters, looks like a temple dedicated to the gods in the temple.

There is a stone statue of the god in front of it, and it is carved from extremely precious white marble.

Its carving is extremely superb, and the face and posture of the statue, and even the soft smile at the corners of the mouth, are vividly depicted.

It was a statue of a goddess, with a beautiful face and a graceful body.

But she was not dressed as a Han person, but a Miao girl.

"It's so strange, since it is the woman that the prince of the Southern Dynasty Daqi has taken a fancy to, it should be a Han person, why is this statue of a god dressed as a Miao person?" Tie Niu asked first.

No one was able to give her an answer.

Hongxing raised her head and looked at the statue carefully, and suddenly asked Baiyang: "Baiyang, do you think this idol will be the Biyou Goddess?"
