"Sister, where are we going?"

This is the second time Chen Mu has asked this sentence in the past few days, and because of this sense of déjà vu, Chen Mu reminded him of a very popular variety show "Where Did Dad Go" on the earth.

And whenever there is such a strange brain hole, it reminds Chen Mu that his roots are not here, he is an earthling.

Chen Mu followed behind the woman in the red dress step by step, in this dim cave at the bottom of the lake, the ghost knows if something strange will pop up.

"Sister, slow down, I'm afraid ......"

The woman in the red dress was in front, walking silently, Xu felt that Chen Mu was too noisy, and a cloud of gray mist directly wrapped around Chen Mu's face, and at the same time blocked his mouth.

Although Chen Mu, who was gagged, was resentful in his heart, the power was in front, and the hero did not suffer the loss in front of him, so he had to bow his head.

Through the gray mist, the originally dim cave at the bottom of the lake became different: the surrounding rock walls were paved with marble tiles, and the tiles were carved with dense characters that Chen Mu could not recognize; the top of the rock was horizontally built with gold, and a jade night pearl was inlaid every five meters, illuminating the whole passage.

Whether it was in the capital before, or at the bottom of the lake now, Chen Mu perceived that there were completely two worlds inside and outside the fog. He was a little confused about what was true and what was false.

At the end of the passage is a metal gate.

Chen Mu followed the woman in the red dress to the door, the woman stopped, glanced at the metal door, and frowned.

Chen Mu's mouth was choked by the gray mist for a long time, and he finally squeezed out a sentence: "Sister, I am familiar with the pattern on this door!"

"Oh?"

The woman raised her eyebrows and looked at Chen Mu, her red sleeves swayed lightly, and she collected the gray mist on Chen Mu's mouth.

With the gray fog gone, the light of the entire passage dimmed instantly, and the surrounding area became a damp rock passage again, but the only thing that remained unchanged was the gate.

Chen Mu walked to the door, observed it carefully for a while, and then affirmed: "I have seen the pattern corresponding to the twelve holes on this door!"

"You've seen it?"

"Hmm!"

Chen Mu nodded affirmatively, he walked to the door, pointed to the holes on the door, and said, "If my expectations are right, these holes correspond to the spirit runes of the heads of the twelve peaks of the Mixed Yuan!"

"How can you be sure?" said the woman in the red dress, speaking from the gray mist.

Outside the gray mist, looking at the woman in the red dress turning into a face again, Chen Mu was still a little disconnected, he drilled back into the gray mist, looked at the fairy-like woman, and laughed: "Before answering my sister's question, can you reveal what is the place behind this door?"

The woman in the red dress looked at the door, and there was a sense of expectation in her eyes that Chen Mu could read.

"Behind the door, there is the cave house where the mixed yuan son was alive. Maybe the reason he imprisoned me here is in it. ”

"It's the Patriarch's Cave Mansion!" Chen Mu was surprised, but he quickly became puzzled, "But how could the Patriarch's Cave Mansion be at the bottom of this Ming Lake?"

The woman in the red dress looked at the door and became expressionless again: "He is mixed with Yuanzi, how can I know!"

Chen Mu obviously heard that there was a hint of resentment in the tone of the woman in the red dress, and he understood that although the city was fished up from the bottom of the sea by the ancestor, after all, she had also been imprisoned for a thousand years.

Sure enough, women are all grudges! Chen Mu concluded.

Seeing that Chen Mu didn't speak, the woman in the red dress took the initiative to ask, "Since you know that this hole is the spirit rune of the Twelve Peaks, is there a way to find them?"

"Hey, hey, sister, you're asking the right person!"

Chen Mu smiled as he took out a rabbit-shaped spirit rune from his arms, and he said proudly: "Sister, look! I have a Maofeng spirit rune here!"

The woman didn't seem surprised that Chen Mu took out the spirit rune, she just said lightly: "Stuff it in." ”

Chen Mu gave the order, he walked to the gate of the cave mansion and put the Mao Feng spirit talisman into the rabbit-shaped hole. The metal door then shook slightly, accompanied by a glimmer of light, but soon ceased to move.

The sleeves of the woman in the red dress danced lightly, and a gray mist hit the gate, as the gray mist gathered more and more, the gate vibrated violently, and Chen Mu even saw that the metal door opened a crack, and it opened bigger and bigger.

Suddenly, the twisted lines originally engraved on the metal gate emitted a burst of bright light, and a simple magic circle took shape in front of the twelve holes; on the magic circle, there were twelve hieroglyphs engraved with "Zi Chou Yin Mao", except for the word "Mao", which was a little dimmed, the other characters all shone brilliantly, and the gray mist that had originally gathered on the gate was shrouded in this light, dissipating like melting snow.

The woman collected the gray mist, frowned, and said, "No, at least five spirit runes are needed before I have a chance to open it!"

"Five more runes......

Chen Mu was speechless, except that he was lucky to be given a spirit rune by the petite woman, he only knew that the young master of the workshop had a Yinfeng spirit rune, and the key person still defeated the spirit beast of the Ghost Realm to obtain it.

Besides, the Qianyuan Secret Realm is so big, how can you find the remaining spirit runes?

The woman glanced behind her at the road she had come from, and said, "The passage between the capital and the outside world is open, and those candidates should be here soon, and I need you to help me take the rest of the spirit runes from them." ”

"Huh?"

Chen Mu thought he hadn't heard clearly, so he asked again: "Sister, you just said that let me help you snatch the spirit talisman from the hands of the candidates?"

"This Qianyuan Secret Realm was originally a trial for your new Mixed Yuan life. Even if the capital is alive, those peaks will not necessarily come to explore in person. But if I did, they wouldn't sit idly by. ”

"So I need you to be my messenger and capture the remaining runes for me. ”

After the woman finished speaking, she glanced at Chen Mu, as if to say that I gave you the right to represent me, you should be flattered.

"Obviously begging me to do something, but I don't have the attitude of begging for people at all!"

Chen Mu slandered, but he didn't dare to express it openly, so he had to say euphemistically: "Sister, you don't know how important this spirit rune is to every candidate! You see that I am a monk who has not even reached the Yuan Habitat, even if I want to rob it, I can't beat them!"

"Strength is not good, it's your business. The woman spoke, her voice without the slightest emotion, "Whether you steal or rob, you must bring the remaining four spirit runes, otherwise you will stay here and be the companion of this deserted city!"

After the woman finished speaking, she turned into a gray mist and left the way she came, leaving Chen Mu alone to stay in place, wanting to cry without tears.

Chen Mu kicked the gate of the cave, and the gate made of gold and stone did not move at all, not to mention, and Chen Mu's feet hurt when he kicked it!

"Sure enough, the heart of a beautiful woman is as hard as this iron gate!"

"Bang dang", the Maofeng spirit rune originally inlaid on the rabbit-shaped hole, fell to the ground because of Chen Mu's foot.

Chen Mu bent down to pick it up, and just saw where the woman in the red dress was, and a mask wrapped in gray mist was left on the ground.

"What is this?"

Chen Mu stepped forward and picked up the mask, and suddenly, a gray mist wrapped around his fingertips, and he was able to manipulate the gray mist through this mask!

"Hehe, I knew that the ghost sister was a knife-mouthed tofu heart, no, she left a gift for me!"

Obviously, this mask was deliberately given to him by the woman in the red dress, and the many mysteries of the gray mist were also reflected in Chen Mu's mind the moment he picked up the mask.

"Not only can it be used to conceal one's own body, but it can also manipulate the minds of others through the gray mist! The key is that the ghosts covered in the gray mist can still be used by me, isn't this equivalent to I have a dark army!"

Remembering the ghosts that looked at them through the gray mist, their expressions ......

Chen Mu still had goosebumps.

"Forget it, the Hades don't need anything or anything, I'll just knock the black stick on my back!"

Chen Mu grinned, he had already figured out how to obtain the remaining five spirit runes.

"Fellow believers, I'm sorry!"

......

At the end of the forest, Qin Hu looked at the city that suddenly appeared in front of him: "I remember that this place turned out to be ...... Minghu Shore?"

Two days ago, the place where Qin Hu was standing was still on the shore of Minghu Lake, and he was still barbecuing here with Brother Mu and Brother Jiao Zhuo!

"That's what I'm talking about. ”

Li Yin looked at the city in front of him with a solemn expression, and at the gate of this sudden appearance, there were already many candidates watching here.

"There are so many candidates!"

The charming woman Lu Yu smiled coincidentally: "However, why don't they go in?"

Li Yin explained: "I have checked, the prohibition at the city gate requires at least four peak spirit runes to be unlocked, and there are only twelve spirit runes in total, how can it be so easy to obtain. ”

Lu Yuning raised her eyebrows and looked at Li Yin: "But didn't someone get two and give me one?"

"It's not a charity, it's a gift from me that I asked for your help. Li Yin smiled, "After all, everything in the capital is full of unknowns, and I need strong teammates." ”

Lu Yuning disagreed: "So, it's my honor?"

At this time, Hu Jun, a shirtless man with a scar, said sarcastically: "Hmph! Lu Yuning, you are the weakest of the four of us, don't hold us back!"

"Hu Jun!

Lu Yu was angry, but Hu Jun didn't look at her, his eyes were all focused on Mu Tianzhen, and he had a fierce fighting intent.

Li Yin naturally observed this scene, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded whether his temporarily summoned teammates were reliable.

Mu Tianzhen frowned, and he looked at the three people who were laughing again: "Having said so much, do you mean not to let Brother Qin Hu in?"

Hu Jun glanced at Qin Hu and said with a smile: "Although this wolf boy has good strength, he doesn't have a spirit rune, so naturally he can't get in." ”

Mu Tianzhen said coldly: "Brother Qin Hu can't get in, I don't want to participate in that matter!"

Lu Yuning's face was full of indifference: "It's not that no one else has a spirit rune, if you don't want to, let's find someone else!"

Seeing this, Qin Hu hurriedly comforted Mu Tianzhen and said, "Tianzhen, I don't care. Brother Mu and Brother Jiao Zhuo may be inside, and you still need to go to them!"

"This little brother has a point. Li Yin hurriedly smiled and said, asking him to find other people who have it now, how can it be so easy, "But it's not that if you don't have a spirit rune, you must not be allowed to enter." ”

Mu Tianzhen was a little curious: "Is there a way?"

"The prohibition of the city gate is not always the same, but for the first time, four spirit runes are needed to unlock the door lock, and then the prohibition will be weakened, and the conditions for passing will be much simpler. ”

"On what terms?"

"Have one spirit rune, or ten stone runes. ”

Lu Yuning pursed his lips: "This condition is also very harsh! Not to mention the spirit runes, ten stone runes are not easy to obtain, right? In this way, a few of us should be enough for ten." ”

"No need. ”

Lu Ningjue was just about to sell a favor, but was rejected by Mu Tianzhen. I saw that the girl took out a stepping stone talisman from the Qiankun bag, and there were about a dozen of them, which were stored by Chen Mu in her before.

"So much!"

Both Lu Yuning and Li Yin were surprised, and even Hu Jun, a belligerent maniac, was convinced, and at the same time, there were other meanings in his eyes when he looked at the girl: Okay!

Author's note: I have read many otherworldly novels, and after the protagonists come to the otherworld, they seem to have forgotten their identity as earthlings. I don't want Chen Mu to forget, I don't want Chen Mu to forget his roots.
