Duan Lao Wu, whom Wu Dagang called, was younger than Wu Dagang, probably around thirty years old.

According to his own account, because they have about thirty sheep in their family, they often drive the sheep out to graze. Below the creek, he often goes.

As for the little cave I mentioned, he often drove his sheep over there.

"Have you been there lately?" On the way, I asked Duan Lao Wu.

He heard my question and stopped. He replied to me, "I haven't been there much lately, I've been herding sheep on the Lion Rock lately." ”

Where is the Lion Rock he said, I don't know. But I didn't ask him either. Because that's not the point. What I want to know is the cave that Old Lady Chu said, why she picked up a Xuanyin Bead there.

"Talk as you go!" I saw Duan Lao Wu stop, so I said to him.

"Oh!" Duan Lao Wu replied and continued to lead the way in front.

After that, I continued to talk to him about the riverside. But from his mouth, I didn't hear anything out of the ordinary.

But I firmly believe. There must be something strange in that place, otherwise how could a Xuanyin bead appear for no reason?

Starting from the village, after leaving the village, we walked down a mountain stream path. Because it was night and it was a mountain road, we had to take care of Wu Dagang and Duan Laowu's speed. So, we walked for almost an hour before we got down to the bottom of the mountain.

Before we reached the bottom of the mountain, we heard the sound of flowing water.

"Where is that cave?" I asked Duan Lao Wu.

When Duan Lao Wu heard this, he shone forward with the flashlight in his hand and said, "Ahead, you have to walk forward along this small river for a while." Did we take a detour? Now we have to go in the direction of the village. ”

"Then please lead the way and take us over to have a look!" I said to him.

He answered and continued to lead the way.

Along the creek, we went all the way downstream. This time it took about ten minutes. Duan Lao Wu turned back to us and said, "It's right in front!" It's coming soon! ”

It's not far from here, and I don't know why that old lady Chu ran so far away?

I looked up and could faintly see the lights coming from the top of the mountain. That's where the village is.

We were right below the village, probably under the bamboo grove we had been to before.

"Whoa! This is it! Duan Lao Wu shone a flashlight, and we saw a dark cave entrance.

"Turn off your flashlights. Stand still and don't move! "I said to Duan Lao Wu and them.

The two of them turned off their flashlights as they were told, and then the two of them stood together. Looking at his appearance, he seems to be a little scared.

"Rest assured, with us here, you will not be in any danger." I said to them.

"I ...... Mr. Tang, we know! I...... We are not afraid! Wu Dagang said.

Although he said that he was not afraid, I could tell that both of them were actually a little scared.

"Linlin!" I shouted softly to Zhong Linlin.

Hearing this, Zhong Linlin nodded. He took the shovel and held it in his hand, then raised his legs and walked towards the cave.

For the sake of safety, I also took out the money sword and followed Zhong Linlin over.

We came to the mouth of the cave and looked inside.

Nothing is wrong, huh?

We walked into the cave, and the cave was an ordinary cave, and there was no evil qi in the cave, and there was no yin qi gathered.

Walking around the cave, I took a closer look at every corner of the cave.

No problem!

Could it be that the old lady mistaken? Or is she lying to me?

The place where the Xuanyin bead was born. How is it possible that there is no gathering of yin energy?

"Tang Bing, are we mistaken?" Zhong Linlin asked me.

"I don't know! But that's what the old lady was talking about! I said.

"Could it be that for some other reason, that Xuanyin Bead fell in this place, and then happened to be picked up by that old lady?" Zhong Linlin asked me.

"That's not right! If this Xuanyin Bead was not produced here, then. We don't see any other ghosts in the village, how can we explain this? I said.

Yes, except for the three big-headed ghosts that appeared on the back wall of Wu Dagang's house, we saw the ghost of Old Lady Chu in the entire village.

How does it make sense that there are only three or four ghosts in such a large village?

Also, where did the Wraith Snake come from?

You know, in normal times. It's not easy to find a Wraith Serpent.

"So what now?" Zhong Linlin asked me.

"I don't know, or we'll ask again if they're mistaken. Are there any other caves around here? I said.

"Hmmm! It's possible that they got it wrong! Let's ask again! Zhong Linlin responded.

We walked out of the cave and shouted at Wu Dagang and the others.

They heard our shouts and quickly turned on their flashlights. Trotted over.

"How? Tang County, is there something wrong here? Wu Dagang asked me.

Instead of answering his question, I asked him, "Are there any caves like this around here?" ”

"It's gone! There's such a cave around here! Duan Lao Wu said to us.

That's weird.

Could it be that the Xuanyin Bead really appeared here by accident?

Seeing that I was pondering, Zhong Linlin said, "Don't think about it, there is no Yin Qi gathering around here at all. It can't be the place where this Xuanyin bead was born. As for the absence of ghosts, perhaps after we arrived, for some other reason, all the ghosts were destroyed or absorbed by something. ”

In the current situation, it seems that this is the only way to think.

But I still vaguely felt that something was wrong. But I can't say what exactly is wrong.

"That's it! Let's go back! There is nothing wrong here. It's impossible that there's a lot of yin energy gathered here, and neither of us can sense it. Is this possible? Zhong Linlin said.

Well?

Hearing Zhong Linlin's words, a thought suddenly flashed through my mind. But when I tried to grasp that thought, I couldn't think of anything.

Wrong!

What was the thought that just crossed my mind?

I struggled to remember.

"What's wrong?" When Zhong Linlin saw my appearance, she hurriedly asked me.

"What did you just say? Say it again. I asked Zhong Linlin.

"Huh?" Zhong Linlin was a little dazed, then she thought for a while and said, "I said, there is no problem here. ”

"It's not. Another word! I shook my head.

When Zhong Linlin heard this, she frowned and thought about it, and then said, "I said, it's impossible to gather a lot of yin qi here, and neither of us can sense it. This...... It's impossible! ”

"No!" Hearing her words, I raised my hand blankly, and said, "Is this impossible, this is very likely." ”

"Huh?" Zhong Linlin looked at me in surprise and asked me, "Why?" ”

"You forgot, during the day, didn't I arrange a formation to isolate the yin qi emitted by the evil diagram on the back wall of Wu Dagang's house, and prevent the yin qi from emitting out. If there is really a lot of yin qi gathered here, but it is isolated and sealed by someone by any means, we will not be able to sense it. I said as I thought.

"You mean, someone here has done it? How? Did you sense that isolation formation? Zhong Linlin asked me.

"No, I'm just guessing now!" I replied.

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and check!" Zhong Linlin glared at me.

I nodded, took out my compass, raised the Array Spirit Ring on my finger, and drew a few extremely simple runes, which slowly fluttered around.

The runes I drew were not used to form formations, they were all runes with extremely heavy yang energy. If there are other formations here, I will react immediately after my rune touches it. And the reason why I use runes with extremely heavy yang energy is because if there is yin energy nearby, even if it is just a trace of it, my runes will be able to sense it sensitively.

Controlling the runes, I slowly searched around.

Five minutes.

Ten minutes.

Fifteen minutes.

……

I carpet-searched all the places inside and outside the cave, and all the places nearby. But still nothing was found.

However, just as I was about to give up the search, suddenly, a rune under my control suddenly reacted to something.
