Shen Yuan nodded and walked over, standing four or five meters opposite the man. Carrying a gun, he asked, "Who are you?" What do you want to do? ”

"Boy! Now you don't need to know that, you just need to know that we're not enemies now! As for whether you will be an enemy in the future, it will depend on your own choice、、、 what I want to do now, even if I tell you now, you will not understand, I still advise you to hurry home. 、、、But maybe in the future, I'll take you to find the answer you want. ”

Shen Yuan frowned and said, "Isn't that equivalent to saying nothing?" ”

The man turned half of his body, and Shen Yuan noticed that the man was about thirty years old, thin and pale. With a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, he looked at himself quietly, but there was a thick death breath all over his body!

The man said softly: "This time, we are here to send the bone burner into the Five Immortals Sect, and then take one thing by the way. I didn't expect to meet the two of you, it seems that we are really fateful! Wang Ziheng, that stupid thing didn't hurt the two of you outside, it's really lucky! Now that the people in us should have succeeded, I stayed just to meet you and say hello to the jade connoisseur. Everything has a chance, don't go against the sky, I will come to you in the future, I hope you will not be hostile to me when the time comes! ”

"Do you still want to go? Leave it to this seat, the obstacle of iniquity! A cold snort suddenly sounded above the heads of the three of them! Shen Yuan hurriedly looked up, only to see Hu Xiaomei, who had long since disappeared, that is, the fox fairy family, and jumped to the top of the dense pine forest at some point! At this time, it swooped down like a crane in the dust, but the white silk scarf around its neck disappeared.

"Silk scarf、、、 stand-in?" The man in black sighed: "The immortal family is really good!" ”

The fox fairy's eyes showed a cold light, and the aura around him became more and more cold, and he stepped on the top of the man's head with one foot in the air! The man leaned over like a wheel, and flipped backwards with his palms propped up, and the range of movement obviously exceeded the limit of the human body!

Shen Yuan could even clearly hear that the knots in his body were making a fine crisp sound、、、 the fox fairy family missed, but the toes of his toes hit Shen Budo's stiff shoulders!

Shen Budo stumbled and rushed towards Shen Yuan, Shen Yuan quickly stretched out his hand to support him, and saw that the fox fairy family borrowed a little power from Shen Budo's shoulder. Pounce forward like a cheetah! The right hand is like a claw, grabbing the man's throat, and the movement is as fast as lightning!

The man couldn't dodge, and only barely stretched out his arms and crossed them in front of his face, "Ka! With a sound, the fox fairy family had already pinched the bone of one of his arms, and the man was unconscious, opening his mouth and exhaling a breath of black gas! Retreat again!

The fox fairy family waved his sleeves, waved away the black qi, stood on the ground and looked at the man, and said in a dark voice: "Is it a bad qi borrowed from the corpse technique?" ”

The man smiled slightly and saluted with his intact arm: "The immortal family has good means and good eyesight!" ”

The dark green eyes of the fox fairy family were shining, and he said coldly: "You are so bold! I was so arrogant outside my gate! After decades of hibernation, you're all starting to regain your yang, right? Do you think you can deceive me by borrowing the remains of my disciples and hiding them in the ground? ”

The man lowered his head and smiled: "I don't dare to deceive the immortal family, it's really that thing, the immortal family has always refused to give in, and I was forced to make this decision!" There is no malice in leaving this technique, I just want to say hello to this generation of jade masters、、、"

"Dream on! Now I see how you managed to escape from the palm of my seat? ”

"Don't worry! 、、、" The fox fairy family didn't listen at all, and waved his hand to grab the man's heavenly spirit, and the man bowed his head directly, and his uninjured right hand quickly pinched a fingerprint! With a soft sound of "bang", the man's body eerily shot out more than a dozen yellow paper spells in all directions!

The fox fairy frowned, raised one palm, and a cold suction suddenly appeared in the palm! Seven or eight flying yellow talismans rolled back, and a pale green flame burned in the palm of the fox fairy's palm! The few remaining yellow talismans were still flying without a trace、、、

Hu Xiaomei, the fox fairy family, shook her hand hatefully, and the ashes were splashed. He said in a deep voice: "Life is really big! A small chance can also save a life! ”

Shen Yuan and Shen Budo, who had recovered his strength, looked at each other and were so frightened that they couldn't speak.

The fox fairy family turned around and looked at them coldly and said, "Come in!" When you go to the cave, you go to see Hu Baoyi first, and if there is anything you can help, go and help. Come see me again in the evening, Hu Baoyi will arrange for you. As he spoke, he walked forward slowly, and Shen Yuanshen hurriedly followed.

Shen Yuan and the others followed the fox fairy family through the dark and dense ecstasy forest, revealing a stream with continuous flowing water, the valley was quite deep, and the strange rocks on both sides were jagged and moss-mottled. There are faintly mottled insects crawling among them, and the water is clear and there is not a single fish or frog in sight.

Shen Yuan was slightly puzzled, and saw the fox fairy family's footsteps light as a feather standing in front of a short and simple stone tablet, on which were engraved with a few mottled ancient characters. Even Shen Yuan couldn't make out which seal font it was.

The fox fairy family looked back at the two of them and said, "Remember these words on the stone tablet, there are a total of five bridges on the Broken Soul Creek. Let's just take this fox fairy bridge! Don't go down into the stream, it's full of poisonous insects, and the stream is poisonous, and if you go down, even if I want to save you, it may be too late. ”

Saying that, the fox fairy family stepped on the small stone arch bridge and walked towards the opposite bank, and Shen Yuan was just about to take a step when he was stopped by Shen Budo. Shen Budo pointed to the head of the divine beast carved in stone on the bridge railing, and said to him, "Forgot? The fairy family said that when crossing the bridge, you have to step on the lion's head, be careful! ”

Shen Yuan suddenly remembered what the fox fairy family said about stepping on the lion's head to cross the bridge, and couldn't help but wonder: "Step on the railing to cross the bridge?" Light work? Can you do it? ”

Shen Budo said: "How can I have that ability? Don't you see that there are five railings carved with lions on the bridge? I can't borrow the angle to 、、、 this fox fairy family doesn't look so embarrassed now, and I still have the leisure to test the two of us、、、"

Shen Yuan stood in front of the stone arch bridge, closed his eyes and sensed it, then turned back to Shen Budo and said, "There is no spiritual power fluctuation, and the whole bridge is lifeless, not like there is something like a curse for the eyes." Is there a trap? ”

Shen Budo shook his head: "I don't know, no one has entered the main hall of the Five Immortals Sect for many years, and the people in the main hall have almost not been able to escape the world all these years. People who know these things are tacitly secret for the Five Immortals Sect and will not pass it on, and the Five Immortals Sect also has ordinary disciples. There must be some way to cross the bridge easily、、、"

Shen Yuan asked, "How did the fox fairy family cross the bridge?" Do you see clearly? ”

Shen Budo: "Remember, but I don't dare to learn, why don't you try it first?" ”

Shen Yuan: "Traitor! You deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestors! 、、、”

Shen Budo said: "She didn't look at the lion at all, and swaggered over、、、"

Shen Yuan: "Let's see if there are any stone slabs on the bridge deck with special traces, polished 、、、 shiny footprints or something、、、

Shen Budo rolled his eyes: "Do you think they are all Bodhidharma Patriarchs?" Also footprints 、、、"

Just when the two were entangled and irritable there, Hu Xiaomei staggered out from the corner of the opposite bank and rubbed her pale little face. looked at Shen Yuan and the others and said, "Brother Shen, what are you doing?" Why don't you come、、、? ”

Shen Budo was puzzled: "You are?" May? ”

Hu Xiaomei nodded: "Hmm! Just now, the immortal family got on my body, and I used to just use the spiritual power of the immortal family for my own use, and it was the first time that I directly possessed my body. It felt like I was trapped in a dark room and uncomfortable、、、"

Shen Budo: "How to cross this bridge?" ”

Hu Xiaomei: "Didn't the immortal family tell you the way?" ”

Shen Yuan said: "The immortal family only said that they stepped on the lion's head to cross the bridge, but there are only five lion carvings on the railing, so they can't step on it?" ”

Hu Xiaomei burst out with joy: "It's so stupid! How to step on the railing? Don't you just look at the ornamentation on the slate? ”

Shen Yuan and the others hurriedly squatted down to take a closer look at the mottled stone slabs on the bridge deck, and found that there were some faint patterns on them, and there were faint patterns of various lions hidden in them every one or two steps.

Shen Budo said in surprise: "Is it possible to pass by stepping on such a lion pattern?" ”

Hu Xiaomei nodded: "Just step on the side of the lion's head, stepping on it will trigger the maze mechanism, come here!" I don't know how Master is doing now! ”

Shen Budo walked a few steps on the stone slab suspiciously, looked back at Shen Yuan, and said, "Let's go!" This bridge seems to be mostly scaring people, and it is estimated that the Five Immortals Sect has something to do with the lion! Otherwise, you can't do this, and the lion 、、、 of others."

Shen Yuan hurriedly followed, and the three of them hurried to the main hall cave.

Turning a few verdant cols and a high mountain with steep walls, the black cave openings were revealed. It was about seven or eight meters tall, and it was quiet. Under the moonlight, it looks a little weird.

Hu Xiaomei took the two of them through a stone arch bridge and walked into the cave, and Shen Yuan noticed that the water under the stone arch bridge was flowing out of the cave.

The darkness in the cave made Shen Yuan and Shen Budo very uncomfortable, and when they were about to ask, Hu Xiaomei looked around and said to the two: "It seems that the fox fairy family will take down all the opponents as soon as they come back!" It should be fine now、、、"

As she spoke, Hu Xiaomei slapped her palms a few times. Two figures came out of the dark at the entrance of the cave and came to Hu Xiaomei, Hu Xiaomei hurriedly asked, "Is the fairy family back?" Where is my master now? Did the opponents catch it? ”

A taller figure replied, "One of them escaped, and the rest were killed!" The Immortal Family should have returned to the Fox Immortal Palace, and Elder Hu should also be there、、、 but 、、、"

"But what? Is my master okay? Hu Xiaomei said hurriedly.

The man hesitated for a moment and said, "Just now we were all forced into the depths of the dry cave, and Elder Hu was also injured, and six brothers were broken. Everyone suddenly couldn't invite the immortal family to come up、、、 they were trapped for a long time. Later, Elder Hu was suddenly possessed by the Zhenjiao Immortal Family, and told us that the opponent ran away with one, and the rest had been eliminated, and we were only able to get out of trouble! Now I'm afraid that the battlefield has just been cleaned inside, and the little junior sister 、、、Elder Hu, he 、、、"

"What's wrong with my master? Say it! Hu Xiaomei was in a hurry.

"Elder Hu was already injured, and this time 、、、 one of his arms was 、、、 removed、、、"

"Woo、、、 Master、、、 I'm going to see Master! 、、、" Hu Xiaomei ran to the surface of the hole while crying, and then hurriedly pulled out a small boat from the shadows and climbed up! The two disciples guarding the door offended Shen Yuan and the others, and hurriedly took out a few headlamps and handed them to Shen Yuan and the others. And let Shen Yuan and the others enter the cave with Hu Xiaomei.

Lighting the headlamp, Shen Yuan and Shen Budo helped Hu Xiaomei sail the boat into the depths of the water hole, and Hu Xiaomei lay on the bow of the boat crying while pointing the way.

Shen Budo whispered to Shen Yuan while operating the electric motor: "The Five Immortal Sect can be regarded as keeping pace with the times, and this is all environmentally friendly transportation、、、 Shen Yuan turned his head and glared at him fiercely, leaned over and patted Hu Xiaomei on the shoulder. said in a deep voice: "Xiaomei, there is Hu Xian's family!" Don't worry too much, Master Baoyi won't be in danger. ”

Hu Xiaomei only cared about crying and sobbing, and didn't want to deal with these two brothers at all.

Shen Yuan sighed and stopped making a sound, Hu Xiaomei's sobs echoed in the gloomy and quiet water hole, and the hearts of the two brothers sank for a while、、、

The water cave became more and more open, turning a rugged and strange stalactite forest, and Shen Yuan only felt that the echo of Hu Xiaomei's sobbing suddenly became much farther away. I couldn't help but lift the strong headlamp in my hand and shine it above my head、、、 just glanced at it! Shen Yuan was stunned by the spectacle in front of him、、、

I saw that the boat entered a more open water hole, and the walls of the cave became more rounded. There are a lot fewer stalactites on both sides, and Shen Yuan is on the top of their heads, in the center of the top of the cave. A longitudinal, spine-like stone beam protruded! The stone beams are irregularly divided into cracks, like the joints of the vertebrate spine!

What's even more amazing is that on both sides of this spine, there are faint stone ribs hanging down horizontally along the cave wall! Shen Yuan only felt that he had already burrowed into the belly of a giant python、、、 no, it was not a giant python! It's like a 、、、 dragon!!

Shen Yuan came back to his senses and looked back at Shen Budo, and saw that Shen Budo was also shocked by everything in front of him and was speechless. Just watching the strange sight overhead. Just as the two of them continued to sigh at the miraculous work of the creation, Hu Xiaomei wiped the snot and tears on her face, and said to the two in a hoarse voice: "It's almost there, go around the jade pillar in front of you and turn left, and behind the stalagmites is the dock." ”

Shen Budo nodded hurriedly, drove the electric boat around the huge stone pillar with a diameter of seven or eight meters and a little starry luster, and drove the boat into the stalagmite forest.

On the side of the stalagmite forest near the cave wall, a hand-carved stone path can be faintly seen, and the path turns and extends faintly above the corner of the stone wall.

Shen Budo tied the boat to a stalagmite close to the path with a cable, Hu Xiaomei wiped her face and jumped off the boat without saying a word with a flashlight, and took the cautious Shen Yuan and the two to climb along the stone wall to the depths of the water cave.

The trail climbs higher and higher, winding upwards from pile to pile of lustrous stalactites, and as the angle gets steeper and steeper, it gradually becomes a stone staircase.

Shen Yuan only felt that he seemed to have climbed up to a height of dozens of meters, and his legs had begun to be sore, and at this time, Hu Xiaomei in front of him stood quietly outside a hole.

I saw Hu Xiaomei tinkering a few times next to a few stalactite pillars, and it was dark and I couldn't see what she had done, and the two of them were embarrassed to take a headlamp to spy on her, and turned their heads to look at the black stone cave, and Shen Yuan didn't feel that there was any change inside.

I watched Hu Xiaomei take the lead and walked in along the entrance of the stone cave, and said to Shen Yuan as she walked: "There are three loose stone pillars behind the stalagmites, shake the one in the middle, and the disciples guarding the second gate inside will know that there is a guest visiting、、、

Shen Yuan nodded and followed Hu Xiaomei's footsteps towards the depths of the dry cave that was getting drier and drier.

When they first entered the dry cave, they felt very low, and Shen Yuan and the others had to dodge all kinds of strange rocks hanging down from the roof of the cave while walking, and gradually, the space became spacious again.

As he went deeper and deeper, Shen Yuan felt that the speed of air movement was getting faster and faster, and it seemed that the three of them were already approaching the exit of this long karst cave.

As a small narrow starry sky above the left front jumped into view, Shen Yuan suddenly felt that he should have walked to the edge of a semicircular terrace. With the starlight above and the light of the moon that only showed a corner, Shen Yuan carefully looked at the irregular and narrow terrace-like square outside the cave entrance.

The stone square is built along the hillside, and beyond the railing is a quiet lake, and a few sturdy ancient pines are rooted in the stone-paved ground. The surrounding area can be seen as a faint pine forest slope, and the wind is very quiet, as if this is a relatively closed valley or a sinkhole.

In front of the square, there are dim lights in the shade of ancient trees, and there seems to be no electricity in the valley, and the old stone houses that are faintly visible are still lit by candles and other lamps.

Hu Xiaomei wiped her face, pointed to the location of the mountainside in the middle of the valley, and said to Shen Yuan: "My master should be at the Wuzhong Pavilion of the Fox Immortal Hall, let's go over and have a look." With that, he walked along the stone path that radiated a faint cold color under the moonlight and walked towards the mountain.

The three of them walked halfway up the mountain, passing by several houses that were either silent or dimly lit, and strangely did not meet a single disciple of the Five Immortals Sect. It's as if there hadn't been a terrible battle here.

There was no trace of a fight around, making Shen Yuan wonder if what he had just experienced was a dream!

Just when Shen Yuan was still thinking nonsense, the three of them had already come to the front of a tall five-story stone pavilion, and Hu Xiaomei walked in.

The area of the first floor is not small, with an area of more than 200 square meters, and it looks like a living room. The high curtains hung from the beams, the wooden tables and chairs around them were a little scattered, and there were still a few dark black marks on the ground if you looked closely. It seems to be a trail of blood that has just started to dry up、、、

At the entrance of the wooden staircase on the east side, there were two sturdy men, who nodded to Hu Xiaomei after seeing Hu Xiaomei and the three of them enter. Fu arched his hand to Shen Yuan and the others, and whispered to Hu Xiaomei: "Elder Hu's injury has been taken care of, and he is resting on the third floor, you can take the guests to see Elder Hu!" ”

When Hu Xiaomei heard this, her mouth choked, and tears flowed out again. Hurried upstairs、、、

The three of them did not stop, and when they passed by the second floor, they only nodded to the four middle-aged men and women who were frowning and angry, and then came directly to a side room on the third floor without stopping.

In front of a wooden table at the door, a spirited, white-haired old lady was packing a pack of shiny silver needles and a few blood-stained knives, and a large pile of blood-red gauze was thrown on the ground、、、、、、

On the ground was a small stove burning charcoal, a small medicine pot was boiling on the fire, and the faint smell of medicinal soup wafted out with the steam.
