Chapter 148: Strange Stones

Elder Yanshan was full of praise for Xu Ning, and was very curious to see him move those stones again, and asked the reason.

Xu Ning told them about finding those green light sources, so the three of them let Xu Ning rest for a while, and threw the stones into the cave one after another.

The Third Elder suddenly got up and said, "There are countless treasures and cheats left behind in the wilderness, divine weapons and magic weapons, why don't we go into the cave to check them out, maybe we have really found something good?" ”

His two eldest brothers laughed and didn't care about moving the stones, Xu Ning replied: "You look at such a big natural reservoir, I don't know how many squares have been stored, and it will flow out in more than an hour, and it is clear that this stone cave is a tunnel to other places." I'd like to go in and have a look, but it's getting late and I can't take care of it. ”

The three elders lifted a large stone and threw it towards the entrance of the cave, and when they stood at the entrance of the cave and looked at it, they saw a black piece inside, and they listened carefully to the sound of the stone touching the rock wall from time to time, and they disappeared after listening for a long time.

He stroked his long beard and said thoughtfully: "This cave is unrecognizable, I don't know how deep it is, it's better not to rush in, we might as well block it now, lest someone stumble and fall down in the future." ”

So without further ado, he and the two big brothers struggled to move away from the pile of stones, and kept throwing stones inside. Although they are old, their internal strength cultivation is not weak, and the three of them join forces, and their efficiency is much higher than Xu Ning's.

Xu Ning rested for a while, then went to replace the eldest elder and continued to work. After more than an hour, there was not much left of the huge pile of rocks, and some black muddy ground began to show up.

Suddenly, he heard the third elder "Huh", and shouted in surprise: "Xu Gongzi, look, what is that?" ”

Xu Ning looked in the direction of his finger, only to see that in the sludge of the pile of rocks, most of the green objects were exposed, Xu Ning reached out and dug it out, and after wiping off the mud, he found that it was a small green square stone, and he couldn't feel the slightest weight in his hand. I picked it up again and squinted at the sky above, it turned out to be transparent, and there were some black mist-like things in it, which kept swimming.

"This thing is so strange, the three seniors have seen similar items." Xu Ning asked, and then lifted the turquoise stone for the three old men to look at slowly.

The Great Elder shook his head and said, "It is probably a piece of jade." ”

The third elder was in a hurry, took the gem from Xu Ning's hand, put the thing in his hand and turned it upside down, and wondered: "Hey, how can it be so light?" ”

The Great Elder also felt quite strange when he heard this, and he also took it in his hand, sure enough, there was no weight, he just wanted to speak, as if he remembered something, his face turned pale, and he threw the green stone in his hand directly to the ground.

There was a "bang", and the turquoise stone rolled on the ground a few times and fell into the mud.

"Great Elder, what are you...... Could it be that there is something wrong with the stone? Xu Ning asked puzzled, seeing the old man's body trembling like an electric shock.

The Great Elder pointed to the green stone in the mud and said in a trembling voice as if he had seen a ghost, "You must not touch that stone again, what is hidden in it is the spirit of the evil spirit!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, Xu Ning stabilized his mind, and unconsciously approached the small stone, and the demon slaying lock in his body quietly trembled after a long period of silence.

Based on this, what the Great Elder said must be true.

Only now, there are two ways to go, one is to quickly lead everyone out of the abyssal blood pool, and the other is to throw back this strange thing that hides the soul of the demon.

Xu Ning's eyes stared at the green stone in the dirt, and said in his mouth: "Great Elder, I see that it has just lifted the seal, plus the previous battle with me, the loss is not small, it is better to take the opportunity to get rid of him, if we escape now and let it go, wouldn't it be in vain today." ”

The Great Elder was noncommittal, and the other two elders glanced at each other and said in unison: "What Xu Gongzi said is extremely true, but please be very careful, we are here to escort you." ”

Xu Ning looked up again, and there was no demonic energy coming out again, and he was slightly relieved: "If there is really some demonic evil hidden in that stone, it is also very affected now, and it is just right to kill." ”

Before his mind moved, the Demon Slayer Lock shot out of his palm, and with a "snap", the turquoise stone in the mud was smashed into powder. Sure enough, there was a burst of green mist, and the fire on the demon slayer lock flickered, as if it had inhaled the green smoke, and nothing could be seen in an instant. He was on guard, but he waited for a while, but he didn't see any abnormal changes in front of him, let alone ghosts, and he didn't even hear half a word of ghost language.

"Big brother, you can't be mistaken." The Third Elder asked quietly.

The Great Elder slowly looked up, rubbed his eyes again, and became strange, and said in a loud voice: "I heard this from the old patriarch with my own ears, could it be ...... Am I really mistaken? ”

"Do you remember what the old patriarch said to you?" The second elder asked.

"The old patriarch once told me something about the blood pool." The Great Elder found a clean place, sat down and said, "The demonic aura in this place has been immortal for thousands of years, and it must be hiding extremely powerful demonic monsters......"

Xu Ning also gathered over, and the Great Elder continued: "The turquoise stone in that hand just now is the demon crystal. ”

Everyone asked in unison, "Demon crystal?" How can you tell? ”

"The demon crystal is also the crystallization of the demon soul, and you have also seen it in your hands. It doesn't have the slightest weight, so how can a soul have weight? The body of the monster in the blood pool was destroyed, and the soul was imprisoned here, and it slowly turned into a spar-like thing over the years. "The Great Elder never got to the point, and everyone didn't understand anything about it, so they didn't ask any more questions.

However, Xu Ning seemed to be talking to himself: "There was also a burst of green mist coming out of the stone just now, but it was too faint so you didn't see it clearly, not to mention that it was getting late now, and the light was not good." ”

Everyone exclaimed in unison: "Where did the green mist go?" ”

Xu Ning replied casually: "I was sucked in by the demon slaying lock on my body." ”

Hearing this, the expressions of the three old men eased, and the great elder wiped his sweat again and again, and kept saying: "Fortunately, fortunately, even ......."

Xu Ning was a little dazed and asked, "Senior, why is this, why were you so nervous just now?" ”

"If that cloud of smoke escapes, maybe it will be attached to someone......"

The Great Elder hurriedly stopped before he finished speaking, and began to look at Xu Ning uneasily, seeing that Xu Ning was so embarrassed, not to mention that he was still shirtless. After looking at him like this for a while, and seeing that he was as normal as before, the Great Elder was slightly relieved.

Xu Ning understood: just now he must have heard that the green smoke was absorbed by the Demon Slayer Lock, so he was worried that he had fallen into the demon spell and was possessed by a ghost.

He and the three elders of Yanshan were arguing inside for a long time, and the people above obviously couldn't wait, Yan Bing stood on the edge of the "blood pool" and shouted loudly below. It is estimated that if the four of them continue to stay for a while, she will definitely climb down.

"What about the rest of the stones?" The Third Elder asked suspiciously.

"You put him in your pocket and take him back." The other two old men teased.

Everyone laughed and began to climb up the rock wall. The rock wall is covered with moss and mud, and it is a lot more difficult to climb up, but fortunately, the four of them are extremely skillful, and after spending some time, they all reached the top of the mountain.

Xu Ning didn't feel how deep this pit was just now, but now when people stand on the top and look down, it is blurry and unfathomable.

Yan Bing put on a long robe for him, and naturally complained a lot, such as: why did he stay down for several hours, how he didn't know that the people above were anxious, and he wasn't sure if something was wrong......

Xu Ning explained casually, and saw Yan Qingzheng leading everyone to sprinkle medicinal powder on the side and recite incantations.

He quietly asked Yan Bing, did anyone get injured and die after he went down? After making sure that no disaster had happened to everyone, Xu Ning's heart finally let go completely.

Although it was twilight now, the demon fog near the blood pool had greatly weakened, and the sky was clear. The clouds after the sunset faded with a red, and the dead trees and weeds that stood alone in the bleak wind and mist on weekdays became lively in Xu Ning's eyes.

Maybe it was because he had been down there for too long, and he was a little intoxicated at once.

Yan Qing was meticulous in her work, and it was not until the last ray of light was engulfed in darkness and night covered the earth that she beckoned everyone to go back. So everyone hugged Xu Ning, cheering and laughing towards Zhupingzhai.

The old patriarch had already taken thousands of villagers to wait in front of the cliff wall, and it turned out that Yan sent someone back early in the morning to report to the old man about the blood pool's extermination of the monster ghost, which could not only reassure the old man in advance, but also have time to slaughter livestock and reward everyone.

The two sisters of Yanqing and Yanbing helped the old man to Xu Ning, and before Xu Ning could salute, he was held tightly by the old man, and said in a loud voice: "Today, thanks to you, this child, who put his personal safety at risk and bravely killed the evil demons, in exchange for the peace and quiet of my Yan clan." ”

Xu Ningcheng was frightened, so he had to reluctantly accept the old man's praise, and everyone was overjoyed to return to the village together, and after washing, they held a feast in the orchard, and the whole Zhuping Village was full of joy.

It wasn't until the second half of the night that everyone returned home drunk.

Yan Bing led Xu Ning back to the attic and treated him with his gentleness. The bright moonlight shines through the window lattice, spilling down, and the whole room looks more peaceful and clean.

If it is said that in this wild place infested with deceitful demons, which place can make Xu Ning feel at ease and calm the most, it must be in this small wing.

The Yan Bing in his arms fell asleep lazily like a kitten, with soft willow eyebrows, a beautiful nose, fragrant cheeks, and dotted cherry lips all in the bright moonlight.

Xu Ning was stunned and intoxicated.

He originally wanted to tell her about the terrible scene he had seen in the mountain behind Juling Peak last night, but at this moment, he really didn't want to spoil the scenery and destroy the most beautiful thing in the world that he had right now. Moreover, Yan Bing was already extremely tired.

Finally, Xu Ning fell asleep in Gentle Township.
