Chapter 6 Exploring the Jinshan Water Mansion
Chapter 6 Exploring the Jinshan Water Mansion
Only Ji Duan and Ji Gang were left under the begonia flowers in the courtyard, Ji Gang looked at Ji Qing who was slowly improving his complexion and the black snake that was still wrapped around him, looked at Ji Duan respectfully, and asked softly.
"Master, is it so easy to let go of this kid, I secretly put thyme incense in those four boxes, as long as he opens it within twenty miles, we can catch him, and ...... then"
Before Ji Gang's words were finished, a "horn" sounded, and a scarlet handprint appeared on his right face. Seeing that the old man was angry, Ji Gang hurriedly knelt on the ground, lowering his head and not daring to speak.
"It's a shame that you're still a medicine seller, and you actually played with these indiscriminate thymes in front of an alchemist, otherwise would I still have to produce those three hundred star stones. ”
When Ji Gang heard that his trick had already been seen by Wang Jifei, and his master had so many star stones, he knew that it was a dead end, and he collapsed to the ground all of a sudden.
Ji Duan glanced at the big shopkeeper on the ground, slowly turned his back, and said coldly: "You can cut yourself, so that your family can still be protected by the family!"
The begonia tree was silent for a while, and suddenly there was a sound of "bang" of the body falling to the ground.
Ji Duan picked up his son at this time, slowly walked into the room, and said to his son who was still in a coma as he walked: "Qing'er, that Wang Jifei asked for so much property and exposed his identity, he must have been thousands of miles away. But the Ji family has suffered such a big loss, someone has to stand up and bear it! It's a pity that Ji Gang, an old dog who has been used for decades, ......"
In general, the idea of the end of the season is correct. However, Wang Jifei, who should have been thousands of miles away, did the opposite, not only did not go far away, but stayed in the annex of Jinjiang City.
At this time, he was on the way to Jinshan Water Mansion with another alchemist friend, Huang Laoxian, and what he did in front of Ji Duan was nothing more than a trick laid up for his disappearance.
In order to be able to draw the Dark Star Gate Stuffy Stick behind his back without being suspected, Wang Jifei had to cooperate with Ji Duan to make the illusion of slipping away immediately after making a big profit. By the time they finished exploring this Jinshan Shui Mansion, it was estimated that the people of the Dark Star Gate had forgotten about Wang Jifei.
Huang Laoxian is also a rootless and bottomless alchemist, and usually communicates with Wang Jifei to exchange alchemy skills. Later, I saw that Wang Jifei opened a medicine shop, so he simply sent his pills to him to sell, and this Jinshan Water Mansion was invited by Huang Laoxian to explore together.
After living in Jinjiang City for more than half a year, Wang Jifei has also heard more or less about the rumors of this Jinshan Mansion. Jinshan Shuifu light sounds like the name of which Immortal Cave Mansion, but it is not.
This Jinshan Shuifu is an ancient battlefield, there was a huge water battle on the river at the foot of Jinshan, a great power surnamed Zhou set up a plan here, burned alive millions of sailors of the enemy country, and countless ships sank to the bottom of the river.
Hundreds of years ago, an earthquake changed the topography of the river's bottom, and a huge black fog covered the entire river for three months. After the black fog dissipated, a whirlpool appeared at the bottom of the river, and this whirlpool led straight to the ancient battlefield under the water.
Some people say that this is the underworld connecting the bottom of the river, where the souls of the dead are gathered. Some people also say that this is the millions of war spirits at the bottom of the river who have been tortured by the current, fish and shrimp all the year round, and they are unbearable, and they work together to open up a cemetery for themselves.
Every year, people enter Jinshan Water Mansion in search of ancient treasures and unique underwater medicinal materials. However, because of the many years of appearance of the Water Mansion and the special underwater environment, some cultivators who are now in a higher realm are not very interested.
Huang Laoxian came here mainly to find some medicinal herbs unique to this place. And Wang Jifei came here to accompany him, at first he mainly wanted to rise and gain knowledge, but later Huang Laoxian said a sentence that made Wang Jifei suddenly have some ideas.
Huang Laoxian told Wang Jifei. Once, when I went down to collect medicine, I met a dead soul that was more different and more spiritual. You must know that the revenant soul has no intelligence, and its actions depend entirely on instinct.
Wang Jifei immediately doubted that there would be something soul-related to this ancient battlefield, which made the revenant soul conscious. Since his gray space involves the soul, Wang Jifei is determined to explore this mysterious Jinshan Mansion.
The whirlpool at the bottom of the river was very obvious, and Huang Laoxian, who was familiar with the way, soon took Wang Jifei to the dim underwater battlefield.
I don't know how these wrecks have been preserved underwater for thousands of years, and they haven't fallen apart. As far as the eye can see, countless huge shipwrecks are scattered scattered all over the dark water, and strange fish swim among the hulls and boulders.
What is a little strange is that not a single ghost has been seen, and it is difficult to speak underwater, Wang Jifei can only put his curiosity into his stomach and follow Huang Laoxian to slowly swim to the depths of the battlefield.
Huang Laoxian's natal beast was a second-class demon beast green cloud turtle, and when he saw him release this huge green turtle, Wang Jifei realized that they had reached the danger zone.
Wang Jifei immediately cheered up and looked around at this mysterious underwater battlefield. The black bottom of the water is covered with fragments of shipwrecks, the bones that can be seen everywhere are half-hidden and half-buried in the mud and sand of the river bottom, and schools of fish wander around the huge shipwreck at will. Everything is peaceful, nothing is going on?
Wang Jifei looked at Huang Laoxian, who had already taken out the long sword, and summoned the snake Xiaoer out of the situation.
Huang Laoxian seemed to have guessed that Wang Jifei couldn't find the abnormality of the dead soul, turned his head to him, pointed at a small pile of sand on the right side with the long sword in his hand, and Nunu motioned for Wang Jifei to take a closer look.
Wang Jifei looked in the direction of his long sword, and there was a small pile of sand two or three meters high in front of a boulder on the right.
This sand pile is in the shape of a steamed bun and has a diameter of three or four meters. It looks a little familiar, and it looks like a standard grave pile on the ground! As far as the eye can see, there are really a lot of such small sand piles, and the closer you get to the shipwreck, the more there are.
The top of the sand pile that Huang Laoxian is pointing at is slowly rising, and many grains of sand are rolling down the surface. Wang Jifei looked at the top of the grave that was constantly getting sharper, and also pulled out his green thunder knife, and slowly walked forward.
Just as the two of them formed an angle to surround the grave, a complete hand bone pierced through the tip of the grave like a spear, and the entire tomb immediately exploded, and the mud and sand and other debris instantly made the bottom of the river within ten meters muddy.
Wang Jifei and Huang Laoxian retreated sharply in unison, standing with their natal beasts and quietly waiting for the troubled waters to retreat. It was the first time Wang Jifei had encountered this situation, and he couldn't help but look at his accomplices, seeing that although Huang Laoxian's face was solemn, he was not particularly panicked, and his heart slowly settled down.
The clear river flowed through, slowly sweeping away the mud and sand and other debris, the original mound had become a sand pit four or five meters deep, a complete human corpse was fighting against a rusty halberd, swaying left and right and slowly walked out, Wang Jifei saw that his hollow eye sockets were burning with something like greenish and yellow phosphorus fire, which should be the soul fire of the dead soul.
The sound of the water in his ears constantly bringing the sound of his two foot bones stepping on the sand to Wang Jifei's ears.
The sound of "chirp, chirp ......" became more and more urgent, and the movements of this skeleton that had been sleeping for a long time became more and more flexible, Wang Jifei was wondering why Huang Laoxian didn't attack before the skeleton fully recovered, but he saw Huang Laoxian pressing his hand and signaling him to be calm.
What do you mean? Wang Jifei, who was in doubt, had no choice but to suppress the curiosity and uneasiness in his heart, clenched the handle of the knife in his hand, and accompanied Huang Laoxian to look at it.
I saw that after the skeleton walked out of the bottom of the pit, he thrust the weapon in his hand into the ground, and after standing on his feet, he stood still with his big mouth in place.
Looking at the skeleton standing with his mouth open, Wang Jifei still thought that he was using some skill? After being careful for a while, he noticed something abnormal. A suction force came out of the mouth of the skeleton, and his spiritual power seemed to be affected, and his head was a little heavy.
But that's all, the late stage of the life warrior and the cultivation of Ziyang Xuanminglu made Wang Jifei's soul a lot stronger, and the skeleton only made him slightly dizzy.
You can't look at the power of the soul with your eyes, Wang Jifei's perception is that there is constantly a soul power gathering at the mouth of the skeleton, but his eyes are indeed calm, and there is no change at all.
It's a bit weird!
No, it's not that there hasn't changed at all, the few fish that were still next to it just now have disappeared, and the soul fire in the eye sockets of the skeleton is slowly becoming obvious. The aura of the entire skeleton seemed to be slowly rising, because it was the first time he sensed the enemy's breath underwater, and it was also the first time he had encountered such a strange thing as the skeleton, Wang Jifei couldn't judge the realm of this revenant soul for a while.
I don't know what Huang Laoxian is waiting for, the skeleton at this time at least has the strength of a first-class life apprentice in the late stage, Wang Jifei feels that he can't wait any longer.
The green thunder knife in his right hand used the wind and thunder knife technique, and his feet rushed straight up with the footwork of the nine turns of the wind and thunder, Wang Jifei came to the front of the skeleton crookedly and launched an attack.
The absorption of energy was interrupted, and the bone frame was extremely angry, and with his right hand, he grabbed the halberd beside him, and blocked Wang Jifei's blade with one hand.
The steel knife in his hand was restricted by the heavy river water, and the domineering and swift knife technique was like a child writing big characters.
Coupled with the undercurrents that surging under the water from time to time, Wang Jifei only felt as if he had been tied hand and foot and put into a cage, and he could only use one percent of his efforts.
On the other hand, this bone frame that should have been moving slowly, although its movements were not as fast as Wang Jifei's, and his strength was not as great as his, but every move followed the direction of the water, easily suppressing Wang Jifei.
Every blow of a two-and-a-half-meter-long halberd was as fast, accurate, and ruthless as a spirit snake's strike, and every step under his feet was as steady, heavy, and tight as a rock under the water, and Wang Jifei was always blocked two meters away.
Wang Jifei was very aggrieved, obviously he saw the flaw, but the green thunder knife was always a few points higher; obviously the strength could suppress the skeleton, but it was always dissolved by the halberd with a slight touch. Several times, Wang Jifei was almost brought to the halberd blade by his own strength, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Seeing that Huang Laoxian was still watching himself fight with the bone frame, he didn't mean to help at all, Wang Jifei, who was forced to have no choice, had to slowly try to control his strength and speed, and no longer blindly attacked, so he slowly found the feeling of fighting.
