Chapter 201

In the darkness, the light of the bright light rod illuminated the position of the abbot Xu in front of Ning Yuan, and Ning Yuan silently groped in the narrow mountain crevice with the light source, paying attention to the raised gravel under his feet at any time.

Not far behind him, the black and thin man Zizi Scar propped his left hand on the mountain wall, and his right hand held a small one-armed crossbow machine that had been wound and was firmly facing Ning Yuan's vest.

At a distance of a few feet behind him, Scar stepped steadily and lightly on the messy gravel as if it had no weight, his ears close to the mountain wall, and his fingers tapped at the same time, making a crisp "da-da" sound, and the sound continued to echo with the mountain wall extending into the distance.

"There is indeed no trace of the monster's activity. It seems that it is really a legacy of the predecessors. Scar listened for a while, raised his eyes and muttered thoughtfully to Ning Yuan, who was staggering forward in front of him, and then made a secret gesture to his subordinates holding the bright light stick behind him.

The subordinate who followed behind nodded his head imperceptibly, and passed the message backwards.

Soon after, news came from the scar on the ground where he was walking sideways in the crevice of the mountain from behind.

The subordinate cautiously approached the fine scar, and replied:

The boss said that although this kid has a bad personality, he will definitely not be reconciled, and it is estimated that he has only said half of what he said. Keep an eye on the spot for a while, make sure there's no danger, and wait until you get something. In addition, the boss can't do it because of the system oath, so you can create an accident after you get something. ”

Scar nodded slightly, and swept forward.

It's a turn in front of you, and if the other party struggles, you should start it.

They natives never underestimate the player, even if they've only been around for a few days.

However, to the surprise of Scar, the other party didn't seem to have any intention of struggling. Instead, he honestly waited around the corner for Scar.

"Isn't it here?" Scar watched the two turn the corner, and the front began to fall into darkness, and secretly said with some doubts or disappointment in his heart: "Did you really give up?" ”

Ning Yuan didn't know what the thin scar behind him thought. He just waited silently for Scar to get close to him, and then stepped into the corner with his front and back feet under Scar's gaze. Then he paused a short distance ahead, and waited for the fine scar to cross the corner before continuing to grope forward.

Stepping around three corners in a row was like this, which made Scar a little disappointed and a little relaxed.

Seeing that Ning Yuan was so cooperative, even the right arm of Zi Scar in front of him holding a one-handed crossbow unconsciously relaxed.

Seeing this situation, Scar's eyes narrowed, and he secretly guessed with some excitement in his heart:

"Maybe that's what he's for."

However, until the passage between the mountain walls began to widen, Ning Yuan did not make any special moves, which made Scar feel disappointed again.

"It looks like I've really given up." Scar unconsciously whispered to himself a little depressed.

When the passage began to widen so that the huge Scar could stand up straight and move slightly, Scar was completely disappointed, and looked at Ning Yuan's eyes unconsciously with a slight look of disdain.

It's not just the scars, it's everyone else. Walking further back, the little man muttered in a low voice: "I've lost all the player's face, and I'm still brilliant, phew." ”

Scar, who walked at the end, frowned and looked at Ning Yuan, who was honestly and silently leading the way in front of him, through the gradually widening passage, and unconsciously grabbed the iron bow with his right hand.

"Something is wrong. Although this kid has always behaved very softly, the limited two times also prove that the other party has enough courage to fight hard. Do you really think that you are safe if you have the shackles of a systematic oath? So completely soft? ”

Scar secretly scolded, "This kid isn't so stupid, is he? Someone who could stay in that place for ten days and only die once couldn't be so cooperative, right? ”

Yes. From the moment he knew that Ning Yuan had been in the Dragon Blood Great Forest for nearly ten days, Scar had maintained the most basic vigilance against Ning Yuan, an ordinary person who had not cultivated had to stay in that kind of completely unfamiliar place for ten days, and it was also a time period when the beast tide was about to rise, no matter how he looked at it, it was impossible for an ordinary person to look at it. So even if the other party behaves softly, Scar's preparations are still done.

"If it's all a disguise up to now, where will his killer weapon be? The unreliability of Huangsheng's memory is well known. And the other party also made a system oath. Could it be that there is some test of chance? ”

"Yes, most of the legacies of predecessors will set up tests, let alone the legacy of the former that can make people have the protection of the rules of the city to knot."

Although Scar has a rough appearance and a rough voice, his mind as the leader of a team is still very active. If you want to survive in the cultivation world where you eat people and don't spit out bones, you can't live long without a little brain.

But no matter how much Scar thinks, there is one thing that he can't figure out.

That is, even if there is a test, why does that kid think that a mortal who has not cultivated can pass it, and a group of their husband-level cultivators will not be able to pass.

After thinking about it, Scar could only temporarily think that the other party had really given up.

But did Ning Yuan really give up?

The answer, of course, is no.

What Ning Yuan said under the system oath in front of the entrance, the first half of the sentence and the second half of the sentence were true.

There was no problem with the first half of the sentence, Ning Yuan really didn't know the details of the exercises and the city knot. Because he didn't get those things in the realm, and the difference in the realm line is actually uncertain in many aspects.

As for the second half of the sentence, it is not lying. However, Ning Yuan said a few words and secretly changed the concept. Memory and boundary memory are not the same concept. Ning Yuan's memory did vaguely disappear partially, but it was not a boundary line memory, but a memory of the last death. This is a side effect of the "Sunset" ability, and Ning Yuan has nothing to do for the time being.

The whole sentence is true, but it is just missing a few words that are specifically referred, and then the meaning of the whole sentence is different.

A play on words that anyone can play. But it's also a play on words that can be easily overlooked.

Since he has played a trick, it proves that Ning Yuan does not have the consciousness to give up.

Then there is a simple explanation for Ning Yuan's honest performance so far.

The time has not yet come.

However, if Ning Yuan knew the thoughts of this unseemly guy like Scar, he would probably be shocked.

Because Scar has already found the key point. It just didn't turn the corner.

So, to be honest, there is not much time left for Ning Yuan.

At this time, there were twists and turns, from the initial only for a single person of normal size to grope forward, to the narrow passage that could be paralleled by three people in the back, and finally came to an end.

Looking at the exit of the passage with a slight light outside Baizhang, a bright light flashed in Ning Yuan's eyes who were walking in front, but he immediately narrowed his eyes slightly, and when he turned his head, he was already looking behind him with a timid expression.

The fine scar swept over Zi Scar and stepped forward, looking at Ning Yuandao:

"Right ahead?"

Ning Yuan nodded timidly and said in a low voice:

"It shouldn't be far away, I remember it felt like I had to cross a cliff and cross a bridge."

Scar nodded, he had just vaguely sensed with his scout technique that there should indeed be a cliff in front of him. Then he asked:

"Can you confirm it's safe?"

"I don't know." Ning Yuan shook his head and said, "Most of the memories have disappeared. ”

Then he added: "You know, Huangsheng's chances are basically gambling. ”

Scar nodded, then summoned two team members and said:

"You go to the front and check the situation."

"Yes." The two of them clasped their fists in response.

At this moment, Ning Yuan shouted:

"This last one could be dangerous."

The two glanced at Ning Yuan with disdain, and one said:

"We are tempting for danger."

Another humane:

"If it's not for you, I wouldn't suggest you explore the way."

After speaking, he ignored Ning Yuan and rushed forward in unison.

"Two?" Ning Yuan lowered his head and said secretly in his heart.

As scouts in the squad, the two were sure that there was no danger ahead. Because they have also mastered the art of echo detection. There was nothing but stones in this passage. The only thing that is uncertain now is the situation of the undetectable channel exit.

That being said, as a scout, there are still basic qualities.

The two of them adjusted the glow of the brightness rod to a faint level similar to that of the outside of the cave, and the weapon in hand reached forward in a rather cautious manner.

Ning Yuan looked at the posture of the two, and the corners of his mouth curled silently.

Then he counted down silently in his heart.

"Three, two, one."

Ning Yuan counted in his heart for a moment, and the two dim lights that were already close to the entrance of the cave disappeared in an instant.

At the same time, Scar's face changed, and when he turned his head, he just saw Ning Yuan's frightened and frightened look, and then his brows furrowed slightly, and he didn't say anything and rushed forward.

At this moment, Zi Scar, who reacted, directly pressed the crossbow arrow in his right hand against Ning Yuan's vest and shouted:

"Say, are you the devil?"

Ning Yuan trembled slightly, and said in a trembling voice:

"I don't know. I said it could be dangerous. ”

Ning Yuan, who had his back to the scar, looked down at the ground, and his face was calm.

When the people in the rear gathered around, the fine scar that went to investigate seemed to have suffered something, and a short fighting sound sounded in the darkness, followed by a loud shout:

"It's a gap in the wall, throw the bright light stick."

"What?!" Everyone was shocked, but they reacted immediately, and they knocked the bright light rod in their hands to the maximum extent, and then threw it forward like a flashbang.

The concentrated light of a large number of bright rods illuminates the place where the scar is located.

The light lit up with two short exclamations.

"Rest! ~""Breath! ~”

Two black shadows disappeared from the light in an instant, revealing a thin scar and emaciated figure.

When everyone arrived, Scar silently withdrew his posture of vigilance.

Scar stepped forward, staring at Ning Yuan with angry eyes for a long time, and only when he saw Ning Yuan's whole body trembling and lowering his head did he look at Scar and said in a rough voice:

"How?"

Scar shook his head and frowned:

"A little bruising. However, the rice scar and card scar are estimated to be gone. ”

"Didn't you say there are no demon beasts?" Scar frowned.

"It's a gap, the existence of a half-monster and half-spirit, which can be integrated with the rock, and can't be detected."

The gap is a very unique existence, and although it is classified as a demon beast, it is essentially a half-demon beast and half-spirit existence.

The so-called spirit is a unique life that is born after years of vitality nourishment by the existence of grass, trees and rocks, which were originally imperceptible to human beings. Spirits are different from monsters in that they can communicate and communicate with cultivators, and possess a considerable degree of intelligence.

Although the gap has the characteristics of a spirit, because it has no intelligence and only instinct, it is closer to a monster than a spirit. Moreover, cultivators don't know how the existence of the gap was born, so they classify it as a demon beast.

The wall gap is phototaxic and photophobic, and usually places itself in dark passages near weak light sources. It's like the two gaps that attacked the two members of the Scar team.

Because it is close to the spirit itself, and it does not have the unique consciousness of the spirit, the existence of the gap is difficult to be detected by the ability to probe.

As far as Ning Yuan knew, the gap in the wall looked like a moving piece of ground, and this ground was both their bodies and their mouths. They will leave themselves in the darkness of the cave entrance for a long time, motionless, until a creature passes above them, then suddenly open its mouth, swallow the other person, and then close its mouth and leave a piece of ground without a gap.

Let's put it this way. The player walks in a cave, and as they walk, they suddenly turn into a black hole under their feet without warning, fall down, and then you find yourself dead. Nine times out of ten, this player has hit a gap. The word "gap" refers to the hole that suddenly appears under the foot.

And those two scouts were also poisoned by the wall. However, they also blamed themselves for adjusting the light source of the bright light rod too low, of course, this was also the result that Ning Yuan expected. Ning Yuan's reminder more or less played a role.

"The gap is photophobic, and once the strong light is illuminated, it will run away, and it will not come back for a while." Scar explained the gap and then said to Scar.

Scar nodded, glanced at Ning Yuan, and asked in a cold voice:

"Is this kid a troublemaker?"

Ning Yuan, who had been keeping his head down, shook when he heard this.

Fine Scar glanced at Ning Yuan, remembering the horror and fear in Ning Yuan's eyes when the two disappeared:

"Probably not. He may know there is danger, but he doesn't know what it is. And he did have a reminder. ”

Scar frowned and cursed in a low voice:

"Bad luck! I didn't lose manpower outside, but I lost two of them here. ”

"Fortunately, the two of them still have a few times, and they are weak for a few months at most, which is not a real attrition." Scar sighed with a sigh of relief.

"Hmm." Scar nodded and said in a rough voice, "Get the things in your hands first." ”

As he spoke, he walked directly to Ning Yuan, grabbed Ning Yuan's back and waist and directly lifted Ning Yuan, who subconsciously wanted to struggle, to his waist, and said in a cruel voice:

"Whether it's this kid or not, in order to prevent accidents, it's better for me to catch it directly."

Fine Scar glanced at Ning Yuan's flushed face, nodded, and said:

"It's fine."

Hearing the sound of the fine scar, Ning Yuan lowered his head in resignation and stopped moving.

The Scar Team retrieved the Bright Light Stick they had thrown, lined up in battle to the exit of the passage, and then looked at the scene ahead in distraction.

There is a slight downward arc in front of the exit, and there is a huge platform about fifty zhang on the opposite side, on the platform is a circular forbidden enchantment, and there is a huge stone door standing in the enchantment, and there are more than ten or twenty treasure chests in front and behind the stone door, some treasure chests are closed, and some treasure chests are open. Colorful treasure light emanated from the open treasure chest, reflecting in the distracted pupils of everyone.

Wealth is touching people's hearts, not to mention that there are not only wealth that belongs to cultivators, but also coveted cultivation methods and low-level cultivators, and even heaven-level cultivators can never have too many rules to crystallize the city. You must know that even the lowest town-level city knot is enough for everyone to exchange for a school-level cultivation quota in any medium-sized city-state.

This is really no joke.

The preciousness of the city knot can be glimpsed by players in the system store, but it is still unimaginable.

A town-level city knot with ownership in the system store is enough for a wealthy family to go bankrupt, and a city-level city knot is enough to make a thousand-year-old family break their bones, and there is also a county-level city knot on top. As for the provincial and metropolitan city knot systems, they are not available in the store.

However, the lower three levels of the city knot alone are enough for players to know its preciousness, but when the player enters the game world and knows the true value of the city knot, I am afraid that the price of the system store is already very cheap.

What is the City Knot? For the cultivators of the Nino Continent, the city knot itself means everything.

Yes. All.

Wealth, resources, status, power, cultivation, everything. As long as you have your own city, you will have the opportunity to get it all.

Ning Yuan believes that even if it is just a player who has just entered the game, there are already many players who have bought the city and are rejoicing, and more players who have the ability but did not buy it beat their chests and regret it. What's more, now that the surface civilization of the stars has ended, the so-called wealth is just a string of inconsequential numbers, and I am afraid that it will be nothing in a hundred years.

Ning Yuan kept his head down and looked at the ground while everyone was attracted by the light and shadow on the opposite side, while waiting silently.

The people who lost their minds in the treasure light on the opposite side unconsciously began to step forward, first the weakest and the two who were the most seriously injured yesterday muttered, "Get rich!" It's mine! It's all mine! A kind of gibberish strode forward, and then disappeared to the ground in front of him in Ning Yuan's squint, and at the same time, a slight falling sound and a faint short scream could be heard in his ears.

Then, more footsteps mixed with muttered gibberish disappeared at the end of the ground in front of Ning Yuan's eyes.

"Ten, eleven."

Ning Yuan silently counted in his heart.

At this moment, Ning Yuan noticed that the feet belonging to the fine scar also began to move, but instead of moving forward, they were moving towards Ning Yuan, to be precise, towards the location of the scar.

Ning Yuan's heart trembled, and he quietly raised his eyes to look at the light and shadow on the opposite side that obviously contained some kind of terror.

Then he lost his mind in an instant.

However, before Ning Yuan lost his mind for a while, in a sharp pain, Ning Yuan came to his senses.

Ning Yuan, who was lying on the ground, gasped and couldn't help but hum softly.

At least two ribs were broken, one of which was presumably inserted into the lobe of the lung, and the skull was also knocked out, and blood continued to flow down the eyelids.

Ning Yuan looked up with a cowardly and ignorant face.

The sight that came into view made Ning Yuan tremble, and he even seemed to forget the snort in pain.

Scar and Scar stood facing each other, but Scar's big hand grabbed Scar's neck, and Scar's dagger entered Scar's waist without a handle.

Scar's hands hung limply at his waist, his neck crooked to the side, and he was clearly dead.

The scar with his back to Ning Yuan should still be alive.

Because Ning Yuan heard a heavy gasp.

Sure enough, Scar's painful and resentful voice rang out:

"Is this your counterattack?"

Ning Yuan's timid and frightened expression was stunned, and he said hurriedly:

"Ahem, I... I do not know... Hair.. What happened? ”

"It hurts... It hurts... My ribs... Ahem, ahem. ”

Ning Yuan screamed in pain while coughing up blood, and struggled to get up from the ground.

He asked incoherently:

"Hair... Ahem... What happened? Thin.. Fine scars... What's wrong? Cough.. For... Why is this the way ... Ahem... Other.. Cough.. What about people. ”

Scar retracted his right hand on Scar's neck and let Scar's body fall backwards with a dull thud. Then press the wound along the handle of the dagger with the palm of the right finger, and clamp the handle of the dagger between the two fingers of the left hand and pull it out with force.

"Sss Scar took a breath and staggered to the other side, then slowly turned around and sat down against the rock wall. Although the wound was suppressed, the blood still trickled down the fingers, imprinting blood flowers on the ground.

The pale Scar looked at the look of fear and bewilderment, and pulled out a slightly hideous chuckle, and said in a self-deprecating tone:

"Are you still pretending?"

Ning Yuan maintained his disguise, raised his hand with difficulty to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, let the blood in front of his forehead slide down his eyelids, and said timidly: "Ahem... I don't really know what's going on. Cough.. I just glanced at the other side.,And then I woke up with this pain.,Cough.。。。 ”

"Okay." Scar's pale face showed a slight coldness and said, "Let me guess the details of the matter." ”

"The forbidden enchantment on the platform across from it is an enchantment with horror psychedelic abilities. Anyone who confronts the light and shadow of that enchantment will fall into a state of ecstasy and be drawn out of the greed hidden in the deepest depths of their hearts. Then unconsciously walked to the opposite side. ”

"But because of the height difference and the extension of the passage, everyone overlooked one thing."

Scar raised a finger in his left hand and said astringently:

"There's a cliff ahead."

"If you're awake, you can find out if you take a few steps forward. But in a state of ecstasy, he will only move forward with his first impression. As a result... ”

The left hand falls.

sighed in an inexplicable mocking tone:

"The result is a dumpling that falls to the bottom of a cliff."

"And the most terrifying thing about that Enchanted God Enchantment is that the longer you hold on, the more desires you arouse, the heavier and heavier it becomes, not only greed, but also exclusivity."

Scar shook his head and sighed with self-deprecation:

"So Scar chose to do it to me. And I also subconsciously moved the murderous intent. ”

Scar raised his head, looked into Ning Yuan's eyes, and asked word by word:

"This is really not what you expected?"

Ning Yuan sat up with difficulty, waved his hand in horror and said:

"Ahem, how is that possible? I really cough, I don't know... ”

Scar sighed, looked at the frightened expression on Ning Yuan's face and said:

"Trust me, even if I'm dying, I'll be able to kill you twice. All I need now is the truth. ”

Then he pointed to the opposite side in a weak voice and said solemnly:

"Give me the truth, and I'll send you there. With your current body, you can't hold up the other side. Even if I am resurrected, I can still hold on to your last breath to send you to reincarnation. ”

Ning Yuan lowered his head and sighed lightly, and when he looked up again, his expression was already calm.

Scar's pale face lit up with his eyes, and he said astringently:

"Sure enough."
