"Hello sir! The free breakfast period is coming to an end, so would you like to eat? When he was drowsy, Luo Kang was woken up by a call from the front desk, he looked at the time, it was already half past eight in the morning, he hurriedly said to the waiter on the other end of the phone: "Yes, three people, we will be there soon!" ”

Luo Kang put down the phone and opened the curtains, seeing that it was still cloudy outside, and the rain was heavier than yesterday.

"It's all this time, why didn't Lin Zi and Zhuge Yun wake me up? Are they getting up late, too? Luo Kang thought as he washed.

As he expected, Lin Zi and Zhuge Yun were also woken up by the waiter just now, and after the three of them met, they hurriedly went to the restaurant for breakfast.

"Hello three guests, because the time of the breakfast buffet has passed, we have to prepare these foods for you, I hope you can understand!" The waiter said, and brought the three of them to a small table to sit down, and put on a breakfast that was not rich, but nutritionally balanced.

"In today's weather, will there be a lot of tourists in Laojun Pavilion?" Lin Zi looked around the empty hotel lobby and asked the waiter.

The waiter said, "Don't you know yet? Since the typhoon affected Yuncheng, the Laojun Pavilion scenic spot has been closed. Not to mention that the people above can see far away, this has just been closed for a day, the underground palace of Laojun Pavilion and a cave near him collapsed, fortunately there are no tourists in it, otherwise I don't know how big an accident will be. ”

Luo Kang thought to himself, the cave mentioned by the waiter should be the place where the 40,000 heroic spirits are located, and Zheng Jigong, Lu Xun, and Drought should be there.

He nodded slightly at Lin Zi and Zhuge Yun, and then asked the waiter, "How should I go from the hotel to Laojun Pavilion?" ”

The waiter replied: "Out of the hotel to the west 200 meters, is the Laojun Pavilion of the heavenly steps, this heavenly steps a total of 999 steps, both sides are cliffs, is the only path to the Laojun Pavilion, you will not go now, there are scenic security guards under the heavenly steps!" ”

"I'll just ask, and we'll go back to our room after dinner. Thank you, great work! Luo Kang sent the waiter away with a few simple words.

Zhuge Yun saw the waiter walking away, and whispered, "What should I do?" Do you want to force your way through?"

Lin Zi said: "Of course not, I have my own way." ”

After the three of them finished breakfast, Luo Kang and Zhuge Yun went back to the room to bring the magic weapon, and then came to Lin Zi's room together.

"This is a talisman that allows us to disappear in the eyes of mortals, take it with you for a while, stick it on your body, and I'll chant the spell." Lin Zi skillfully drew three talismans on the yellow paper with cinnabar, and handed over the two to Luo Kang and Zhuge Yun respectively.

After the three of them each pasted a talisman on their bodies, Lin Zi opened his mouth and chanted:

The sky is clear and the earth is clear, out of the dark and into the underworld.

The left is in the south and the right is in the seven stars.

If it is not my order, there is nothing to do.

Fighters, the array forward.

Haste as a law! Open!

In an instant, all three disappeared into the room.

"Alright, let's go!" Luo Kang and Zhuge Yun heard Lin Zi's voice and pushed each other before reluctantly walking out of the door of the room.

After going out, Lin Zi said softly: "Listen to me, we can't see each other like this, and it won't be good if we knock each other down, so be it!" I'll go first for a while, Zhuge Yun will set off after 5 minutes, Luo Kang will set off again after 10 minutes, and we will meet at the gate of Laojun Pavilion. Please reply when you receive it! ”

"Yes!" The two men replied in unison, and then they couldn't hear Lin Zi speak again.

Luo Kang estimated that the time was about the same, and walked out of the hotel, although the rain hit his body, more or less revealing his outline, but for the scenic security guards who hid in the sentry box to avoid the rain, this was a detail that could not be noticed at all.

Luo Kang cautiously crossed the cordon and the separation belt, and walked up the edge of the heavenly steps, the sentry box behind him becoming smaller and smaller as the height of his position increased.

But after walking more than six hundred steps, Luo Kang suddenly felt his face as if he had hit a warm sponge mat, and then Lin Zi screamed.

"Why aren't you leaving? What about Zhuge Yun? Luo Kang reached out and groped for Lin Zi's position.

Lin Zi said: "Don't touch it, I'm standing in the middle of the steps now, Luo Kang, you go to the right, Zhuge Yun, you go to the left, and then slowly reach forward to see what the situation is." ”

Luo Kang obeyed Lin Zi's command and reached forward to touch it, feeling like a huge transparent glass blocking the top of his head.

"What is this?" Luo Kang and Zhuge Yun exclaimed almost at the same time.

"I don't know, but one thing is for sure, there's no way we're going to go any further." Lin Zi said helplessly.

"Look at me." Zhuge Yun suddenly exclaimed.

Hearing this, Luo Kang and Lin Zi hurriedly moved towards the left side of the steps, almost squeezing Zhuge Yun off the cliff.

Zhuge Yun said: "You should be careful, look at the forest under the cliff. ”

Luo Kang and Lin Zi lowered their heads, and saw that dozens of meters below the cliff, the terrain was flat, and a large number of ancient trees grew there, but these trees seemed to have been blown up by nuclear weapons, and almost none of them were intact.

Seeing this, Luo Kang recited the "Prajna Heart Sutra" to calm himself down, and then focused on perceiving the location of Grandma Hu's soul.

After a while, Luo Kang exclaimed: "Wife, Zhuge Yun, Grandma Hu's soul is there, you two are waiting here, I'll go down and take a look." ”

Luo Kang said, jumped off the cliff, and relied on Luo Cheng's physical fitness to land lightly on the woods.

Walking in the direction of the fallen trees, Luo Kang vaguely saw a large piece of rubble, but these gravels were not ordinary stones, but bricks and stones that had been carefully processed by man.

Getting closer, I saw that a person was stuck in these stones and couldn't move, Luo Kang wiped the rain from his eyelids, and then he saw that this person was Zheng Jigong.

Luo Kang was a little excited, he took off the escape talisman from his body, revealed his true body, and ran towards Zheng Jigong with a shout.

"Brother Jigong, how are you? How did you end up here? Climbing up the gravel pile, Luo Kang approached Zheng Jigong and asked.

Zheng Jigong's eyes were blank, his big dark circles were comparable to those of a panda, only exposed on his shoulders outside the rubble pile, his clothes were tattered, and there were faint blood stains.

After seeing Luo Kang, Zheng Jigong looked a little surprised, but he seemed to be muttering something in his mouth, and he didn't pay attention to Luo Kang at all, but just pointed to the bottom of the gravel pile with his chin with his spirit.

Luo Kang climbed over the top of the rubble pile, and then looked down, a huge underground palace suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, but this palace was missing a whole wall, according to the material of other walls, it was inferred that the rubble that buried Zheng Jigong came from this missing wall.

Looking more closely, Luo Kang couldn't help but be shocked, only to see four darthorns with the same appearance grabbing the necks of four people respectively.

The droughts had hideous expressions, but they did not move, and no matter how much they resisted, they could not break free from her shackles.
