Chapter III. The sword asks Beiyan 141.The Three Immortal Caves of Life and Death

In recent years, there are actually very few visitors from the outside world to Zhuhai Sword Pond. Because of the rules of the 'Eight Hundred Sons of Sword Pool', it has long been famous all over the world, and those people in the rivers and lakes who want to learn from teachers have long since lost their thoughts. But in the early years, whether it was those young talents who wanted to learn from the door, or the heroes of the rivers and lakes who planned to 'lend' the Zhenlong nail to enlightenment, or even those snitch thieves who came and went, they were still very keen to visit Zhuhai Sword Pool.

But Shen Gui never thought that it seemed that no one on the rivers and lakes had never coveted the treasure of the town faction, why did he just say a word, and Zuo Qiuliang showed this reaction?

Through the detailed explanation of the head of Zuo, Shen Gui suddenly realized: it turned out that it was not his Zuo Qiuliang 'acting generously', but because this treasure was originally prepared for him Shen Gui!

The relationship between Shen Gui and Li Xuanyu has long been known and unknown to everyone on the Huayu Continent. And Yue Haishan's Zhenlong nail was entrusted to him by Li Xuanyu to be responsible for 'temporary storage' back then, and he had already explained at that time, saying that someone would definitely come to him to claim this item back in the future.

Before Yue Haishan died, because Gu Jie was still outside, he was still 'chasing' the female snitch who sneaked into the sword pool and wanted to steal the Zhenlong nail; Therefore, regarding this agreement, Yue Haishan entrusted Zuo Qiuliang, who had a close personal relationship with Gu Jie, and ordered him to relay it to the successor in charge. But neither of the master and apprentice thought that Gu Jie would never return to the Jianchi station......

Because of the well-known relationship between Shen Gui and Li Xuanyu, Zuo Qiuliang is almost certain: the owner of this Zhenlong nail should be Shen Gui; And now that people come to get it themselves, it happens to be an opportunity for Zhuhai Jianchi to fulfill the previous agreement; It is more appropriate not to 'open the door of convenience' to oneself than to return things to their original owners.

Although Zuo Qiuliang is thin and mediocre in martial arts, he is a frank and upright gentleman inside! He had just bandaged the wounds of his two junior disciples, and then took Shen Gui and Urge to the shore of a lake deep in the valley.

Zuo Qiuliang took out a bamboo raft from the bamboo building next to it, tested the sturdiness, and then placed it directly on the water. Shen Gui glanced back at Urge, only to see that she also nodded to herself, and after signaling that she was also familiar with water, the two of them jumped on the bamboo raft at the same time.

When the bamboo raft reaches the middle of the lake, Zuoqiu Liang will use the long tree in his hand to find it left and right; It wasn't long before his eyes lit up, and the long tree rose high above the water, with an iron ring covered in green moss tied to it......

"Shen Shaoxia, you can just pull up along this iron ring......"

Shen Gui nodded, and dragged along the chain that fell behind the iron ring...... After dragging dozens of hands, Shen Gui's chain in hand froze, and from the cliff in the direction of the valley, there were suddenly several loud noises of 'gala'! Zuo Qiuliang's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he muttered to himself: "Devil's axe, ghost's work......

After Zuo Qiuliang rowed back to the bamboo raft, the three of them hurried again in the direction where the sound came from. Halfway through, Zuo Qiuliang explained the internal reason for Shen Gui in detail.

It turned out that the Zhenlong nail that had been sunk to the bottom of the lake was just a 'fake' that attracted the attention of outsiders!

Before Zaoyue Haishan died, he had reserved many martial arts classics for his disciples. But his old man once said to Zuo Qiuliang that he had hidden all the fruits of his life's cultivation in the Three Immortal Caves on the cliff. However, because the eldest disciple Gu Jie, his life is indifferent and quiet, and he is a good man who is very easy to be soft-hearted; Therefore, he was worried that after his death, Gu Jie, the successor head of Jianchi, would be deceived by traitors, and eventually lead to the art of passing on bandits, which would bring disaster to the world; This is why the current 'mechanism' is set up, which is intended to curb the rise of the Zhuhai Sword Pool, and in this Three Immortal Cave, there is also the Zhenlong Nail that belongs to Shen Gui.

These three immortal caves were originally a naturally formed cave; Since Yue Haishan studied under Wu Chengfeng, the head of the Chu Mo Sect in his early years, he naturally mastered the relatively 'shallow' fragments of Qin Mo's technique. And this Sanxian Cave has been transformed by him, and it is divided into six forks, which are for life and death; If you don't open the mechanism at the bottom of the lake in advance and break into the Three Immortals Cave directly, then no matter which path you choose, you will end up trapped alive in the cave; On the contrary, it leads to three paths of life, and you can find Yue Haishan's martial arts experience, an improved version of the Midnight Sword Spectrum, and the three-inch Zhenlong nail that belongs to Shen Gui in the cave.

In fact, Zuo Qiuliang already knew this secret, but he saw that his disciples had already eroded to this point, even if he got the Zhenpai martial arts classics left by his ancestors, it would definitely be a blessing in disguise. Therefore, it was not until Shen Gui appeared today that he personally opened this Three Immortals Cave, which can be regarded as his substitution for the senior brother to obey the last orders of the ancestors.

It can be seen that Yue Haishan is still quite knowledgeable!

The group came to the Three Immortals Cave and stopped. Zuo Qiuliang patted Shen Gui's shoulder and pointed towards the dark hole:

"Shen Shaoxia, these three immortal caves were originally forbidden places in the sword pool, so for many years, even Zuo has never stepped into them. However, there are occasional missing disciples under the door, presumably after stealing into the forbidden land, they were trapped and died in the Three Immortals Cave by the mechanism of the ancestor master. Therefore, whether your visit is a blessing or a curse, life or death, Zuo cannot make any guarantee to you. As for whether you want to go in or not, you'd better figure it out for yourself......"

After finishing speaking, he and Urge left the Three Immortals Cave together, leaving only Shen Gui who stood in place stunned.

If you talk about the relationship between Wu Chengfeng and Yue Haishan, they are brothers who have never met. Even if the people in the rivers and lakes had already recognized that Yue Haishan had betrayed Momen, Wu Chengfeng rarely mentioned this 'traitor'; from the perspective of technical means alone, it was obvious that Yue Haishan was the disciple who had really obtained the Momen inheritance.

For example, Shen Gui has only heard these three words for the mechanism technique that is urgently needed at the moment; He didn't know anything about the mystery and ingenuity, so he was completely unsure that he would be able to get the Zhenlong Nail, let alone be able to get out of the way...... However, no matter whether there is a sword mountain and a sea of fire or Senluo Hell ahead, you have to break through it head-on......

After all, he still needs these nine things to exchange the lives of Qi, Li, and Yan!

Shen Gui sat at the entrance of the cave, put the cuffs and trousers on his body into again, held the Spring Rain Sword out of the sheath in his hand, took a few deep breaths of air, calmed down, and then stepped into the pitch-black Three Immortals Cave.

After walking through the darkness at the entrance of the cave, Shen Gui's eyes gradually regained their vision. He carefully touched the rocks and walked slowly, his own heartbeat except for the occasional sound of water droplets......

After turning the first corner, before the eyes that were originally pitch black, there were suddenly dots of green light! It seems that the mechanism of these three immortal caves is indeed ingenious! I didn't expect to be able to move the bones trapped in those three dead paths to these three life paths and become the 'lighting tool' of the life path!

Shen Gui looked at those dotted phosphorus fires, and his heart suddenly felt a lot of emotion. He was going to go to Nankang as soon as he was free, and have a long talk with the eccentric old beggar Wu Chengfeng......

Shen Gui followed the guidance of the phosphorus fire and cautiously walked forward for a distance. When he turned another sharp corner, a warm yellow light suddenly came from his eyes, and there was a slightly sour smell in his nose, although it was not pungent, but it definitely didn't smell good......

Shen Gui looked at the light source, and saw that in front of him was an octagonal altar; In the center of the altar sat a tall, thin naked man; This person is now sitting cross-legged with his hair covered in his face, and due to the lack of light, Shen Gui, who is standing under the altar, can't see the other party's face clearly at all; Behind this person, there are three passages, and the walls are embedded with luminous jade, exuding a faint light......

Shen Gui carefully grasped the Spring Rain Sword, adjusted himself to the best fighting state, and then coughed vigorously in the direction of the 'naked man' on the altar......

"Ahem, ahem! Under the surname Shen Minggui, dare to ask Brother Taizun's surname? ”

Shen Gui's voice came out, and the rock wall that hit the mountainside echoed; But the man on the altar remained motionless, except for a slight twitch of his ears, and no more sound came out......

"Ahem! This brother Tai, the ancestor of the family and the Qingmang Sword God once had an Old Testament; Today I have come at the promise to take back my own things......"

After saying this, Shen Gui waited for a long time, and when he saw that the other party still didn't respond, he couldn't help it anymore. He jumped lightly into the middle of the altar and walked across from the man to take a closer look......

After the two sides narrowed the distance, Shen Gui realized how wrong his thoughts were! This person was extremely tall, sitting there cross-legged, only two heads shorter than Shen Gui; Although the muscles of his body are very slender, he has no fat, and the light in the cave is not sufficient, so from a distance, it looks like a 'skeleton of bones'......

Shen Gui saw that he still didn't have any reaction, so he cautiously coughed twice again; Then, it slowly circled around the direction behind him......

Suddenly, Shen Gui felt as if a mouse had just slipped past at his feet! The fluffy touch swept over his ankles, causing his hairs to blow up! Shen Gui quickly retreated, bent down, and bowed down...... Unexpectedly, the imaginary mouse did not catch it, but caught a strange object with a touch like a beast's tail......

He lifted the strange-looking thing slightly, and examined it carefully by the light of the fire, and found that it was really a beast's tail! It looks like a leopard's tail, but it doesn't have any spots; It looks like a cat's tail, but it's much thicker than a cat's tail......

Shen Gui, who was puzzled, tugged at the tail of the monster vigorously, intending to catch the 'little beast' out to take a clear look, but he didn't expect that when he raised his head again, a 'human face' appeared in front of him, and he was 'rolling his eyes' viciously at himself!

It turned out that this weird-looking tail actually grew on the body of that 'naked man'!
