I crouched down and touched the ground with my hand. It's dirt, very ordinary dirt, with the occasional scurrying around in swarms of small bugs. With each of Chen Shou's attacks, I could feel the violent shaking of the earth.

"You noticed it too? Chen Shou has been attacking the ground non-stop. Qi Yan also squatted down and pressed lightly on the ground.

"Yes, but I don't understand, the land doesn't look special." I even grabbed a handful of dirt and examined it carefully.

"I think something special should be underground, maybe what we are looking for is not in this Chen residence, but underground," Qi Yan exerted a slight force, and the ground quickly sank down, "We need Chen Shou to help us." ”

"We're going to steal the secret that the Chen clan has been guarding, I don't think Chen Shou will help us." No matter how big the differences between Chen Shou and the family are, I am afraid they will not help us in this matter.

"It's really hard to do. Fortunately, Chen Zhi is not by our side, otherwise she should be embarrassed. Qi Yan said.

"yes, now I'm suddenly glad she's gone." This is a little comfort to myself.

Suddenly, a crack opened in the earth, and the entire stone forest disappeared in an instant, and even the moonlit night disappeared into darkness. The misshapen crack grew bigger and bigger, almost forming a canyon.

"What's going on! This can't be the entrance to Chen's Villa, right? ”

Qi Yan and I turned our heads and saw a small tree with a stunned face.

"I saw that you were delayed in returning, so I came here with some worry. This is ......" asked the little tree, pointing to the crack.

At this time, Chen Shou jumped directly into that crack.

"Let's go down and have a look." Qi Yan said.

Xiaoshu and I nodded.

There was darkness under the cracks. It is darker and more solemn than night, and more silent and desperate than death. Even if we turn on our vision, we can only grope our way forward in the dark. There is some special force here that suppresses our spiritual power.

"How dare you come in."

An icy voice rang out in the darkness. You don't have to guess to know that it's Chen Shou.

"I advise you to go back quickly, this is not the place you should be." Chen Shou continued.

"Chen Shou." Qi Yan slowly read Chen Shou's name, as if chewing something.

"Sure enough, you recognized me, Qi Yan." Chen Shou said coldly.

"I know that the Chen clan is known for prophecy, and in order to show off their abilities, they even have prophecy in the names of their descendants. For example, Chen Yuan is destined to go away, and Chen Yuan died at a young age, so what kind of secret do you, Chen Shou, have you going to keep. ”

Qi Yan's gaze was like staring at a prey.

"It is rumored in the spiritual world that Qi Yan is brilliant and calm, and he really lives up to his reputation. However, you must know that some people are ruined by their own cleverness. This trip to the troubled waters, I advise you not to stir it up. ”

"It's not that I'm here to stir up this troubled water, but that no one can avoid it. I guess you won't be ignorant of the things of the Lord, and if you break into this place today, I'm afraid it has something to do with it. ”

Qi Yan kept staring at Chen Shou's face, I knew that Qi Yan was not too sure, he was guessing and gambling.

"Hahahaha! Qi Yan, will you be too confident! I don't care about the things of the Lord, it's a thing that the whole spiritual world knows, and how do you get me involved with him! Chen Shouyi waved his hand and laughed.

I saw Qi Yan's hand tremble slightly, but he still said in an extremely calm tone: "Your family has been loyal to the Lord for generations, and what you are guarding is the family's secret. In other words, you are guarding the secrets of the Lord. ”

"Humph! Guess what you want! This is the forbidden land of the Chen clan, there are many organs, it is impossible for non-Chen clan people to steal anything from here, I advise you to leave as soon as possible, lest you not even know how you died in the end! ”

Chen Shou's tone was extremely contemptuous, and after saying that, he left in a hurry.

"Follow him." Qi Yan said softly.

Just as we were walking in the direction of Chen Shou, we found that an invisible wall had formed in front of us, isolating us from Chen Shou.

"What is this?" I put my hand on the invisible wall, closed my eyes, and felt the power from that wall. It's a very strange force, not a defense, not an attack, it's more like an authentication.

"It seems that only the people of the Chen family can pass through this wall." Xiaoshu took his hand off the wall and said.

"The Chen clan has really taken great pains to keep this secret, and it makes me even more curious about what kind of secret is hidden here." Qi Yan said as he stood aside, not even approaching the wall.

"Please, we can't even get in now, so what's that secret! Now we have to find a way to get in first. "I knocked lightly on the wall, and was thinking about destroying it.

"No, in the spirit world, some knots are dead knots. For example, the spell of this wall should be a spell handed down by the Chen clan from a long time ago. We're not from the Chen family, we just can't get in. But we may be able to help think the other way around. Qi Yan had a faint smile on his face.

"How is it the other way around?" I heard it in a fog.

"You mean to say we're going to guess what's inside?" Xiaoshu asked.

"Almost, if we can find out the secret directly, we won't have to go in."

"But we just don't know why we need to go in now! If you guess everything, why waste time here. ”

"What if we were wrong in the first place? We're hell-bent on getting in and finding the secret, but in reality, there are thousands of ways to get the answer. ”

"I should have trapped that Chen Shou just now and forced him to tell the secret," I said with some remorse, and turned to Qi Yan with a glimmer of hope, "Have you already figured out a way now?" ”

"Not yet." Qi Yan said very calmly.

"What about you?" I turned to the tree again.

Xiaoshu stretched out his hands and said that he had no clue.

I walked around the little clearing like an ant on a hot pot, asking a question or two from time to time.

"How's the situation on the Lord's side now?"

"The news shows that he is still on the side of the Dead Forest, probably because he set up a bureau for him in advance to drag the master and buy us time." Qi Yan replied slowly.

"This is another abandoned script. But what exactly does he want us to do next? ”

I focused my thoughts and whispered a few times, but there was still no response. The previous few conversations had already consumed most of the energy.
