After Yan Xiaoying's reminder, I immediately remembered that I had seen some small dents on the surface of the iron chain before, thinking that it was like this, but I didn't expect it to be a complicated demon sealing spell.

"It seems that the Gaoshan Clan is not simple, even such monsters can be caught." I sighed.

"Naturally, it's not simple, in the heyday of the people, they couldn't raise their heads in the 36 countries of Baiyue, do you think they don't have masters? Little demon snakes, they naturally won't rest assured. ”

"That's right, if human beings don't have masters, it won't be us humans who will dominate the world for thousands of years, but those ghosts."

I nodded and said: "It's a pity that those masters are very deep hidden, and do not come into contact with the mundane, I have lived for twenty-five years in vain, and only now do I understand the true meaning of the phrase "there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky." ”

"It's not that they don't come into contact with the mundane."

Yan Xiaoying shook her head and said, "It's just that you couldn't reach them before, becoming a Heaven Mountain Keeper is an opportunity for you to step into the ranks of Fang Shi, and you will definitely come into contact with them when the time comes." Even now...... It's hard enough for you to get out. ”

"Perhaps......"

I didn't dwell on these issues anymore, for me, these things are still a long way ago, and now I don't know if I can live to bring the antidote back to save the old fat.

We are in a huge underground cave, about 30 meters high, with stalactites as sharp as bamboo shoots hanging from it.

On one side is a deep water bay with a slow current. Yan Xiaoying and I discussed and walked down the downstream of the inlet.

The further we go downstream, the larger the space becomes, and we even feel the wind blowing on our faces, but this is underground, how can there be wind?

The air is filled with a faint fragrance, wafting from afar, and the smell is refreshing.

When I smelled this fragrance, I was immediately pleasantly surprised: "Xiaoying, I found it." This is the kind of fragrance that I smelled when I burned ghost oil in Changqing's view, and it must be the floral fragrance of ghost lanterns. ”

"You smell it, I see it, look ahead!"

I was stunned, walked two steps quickly, and caught up with Yan Xiaoying in front. I saw that at the corner, a red light appeared under the dark cave in front of me, and the red light illuminated a large space around it.

The red glow was a black plant with the thickness of an arm, and it was very strangely grown, with no branches and leaves, only a branch like a snake's body.

The top of the branch is in the shape of five fingers, and at the palm of the five fingers, a palm-sized, bright red and blood-like flower grows.

There is a red light projected from inside the lantern flower, and from a distance, it looks like a black arm holding a red lantern, which is very weird.

The strange red light, reflecting the surroundings as red as blood, is very psychedelic and makes people feel unreal. In a trance, like a fantasy.

I don't know if it's my delusion, but when I look at the strange sea of blood, I feel that my eyes are a little blurry, as if they are covered by a light veil, and as if there is a red mist hanging in front of me.

"Psychedelic ghost lanterns can only grow in places where the yin qi is extremely heavy, and if you look at the places where they grow, the ground is densely packed with corpse bones."

Yan Xiaoying frowned and reminded me: "Be careful, the fragrance of ghost lantern flowers can make people refresh when they smell it at first, but if you smell too much, you will be poisoned by the flowers and hallucinate, which is a kind of demonic flower." ”

I rubbed my eyes and nodded: "Don't worry, the ghost oil didn't help me at the beginning, just this floral fragrance, it should be fine!" ”

"There must be another reason for the red light projecting from the flowers, be careful!"

As we spoke, we walked towards the place where the ghost lantern grew.

Click! Click!

I stepped on something, and I leaned down to check it and saw that it was the skeleton of Bai Sensen.

As we approached the ghost lantern, we saw something incredible.

It was a jade altar, the altar had three floors, and it was built in the water, and because of the angle just now, I didn't even notice its existence for a while.

"This altar ......"

I was surprised: "The relief carved on the wall of the fifth layer of the stone tower has this altar, could it be that these people who died here are the Gaoshan people who knelt under the altar and committed suicide before?" ”

"It shouldn't be wrong, the ghost lantern absorbs their yin qi and is born."

We were now close to one of the ghost lanterns.

At present, there are corpses and bones everywhere, and although the number of ghost lanterns is not much, there are not a few, and there are no less than fifty bright flowers by sight.

When we came here, we didn't have to use a flashlight, because the red light reflected by the ghost lantern illuminated the surroundings as bright as day.

Looking at the ghost lantern in front of me up close, I was even more surprised.

Its rhizome really looks like an arm, but this arm is covered in black scales, which is very strange no matter how you look at it.

"It's all flowers, but where is the fruit of the ghost lantern?"

I looked around, but I couldn't see the fruit of the ghost lantern.

"Perhaps, the fruit of the so-called ghost lantern is not necessarily its core."

When I heard Yan Xiaoying say this, I was about to reach out and open the bright red ghost lantern to look at it, but Yan Xiaoying stopped me and said, "To be safe, don't be reckless." ”

As she spoke, she pulled out a pair of rubber gloves and a sharp dagger from her backpack.

Then she grabbed the black branch of the ghost lantern and slashed at it with her dagger.

Poof!

She cut off the whole ghost lantern at the waist and plucked it off with the branches.

The branch of the ghost lantern was cut off, and a stream of bright red liquid immediately erupted from the severed part, and at first I thought it was because of the red light around me.

But when I looked closely, I found that the liquid that came out of the fracture was really red, like blood, with a fishy smell.

The ghost lantern was cut off, and the red light inside the lantern was not extinguished. But it was a little dim, and it was still flickering, as if the electric light had been shorted, which was amazing.

"Huh...... There seems to be something alive inside the lantern. ”

Yan Xiaoying sighed lightly, took the dagger and gently peeled a gap in the ghost lantern, and before she could see what was inside the lantern, she saw a thumb-thick worm come out of it.

It is a strange bug that looks like a wasp, but its tail is translucent and glows red. It turns out that the reason why the ghost lantern glows red is actually because of the insects inside.

"Fireflies!"

I was surprised: "Didn't Lin Miao say before that this kind of firefly likes to cling to cold things, how can it be in the flowers of the ghost lantern?" Isn't it afraid of being suffocated? ”

"Look closely, this is the king of fireflies!"

Yan Xiaoying frowned and said, "It's impossible for ordinary fireflies to emit such a strange red light. ”

As we spoke, the king of fireflies, who had crawled out of the lantern, looked at us with his head probed, and then suddenly spread his wings and flapped.

It was four transparent, thin cicada-like wings, and if it weren't for the buzzing sound it made when it flapped its wings, it would have been hard to notice that it still had wings.

The next scene made me cry out in shock.

I saw the Fire Insect King flapping his wings, and his whole body suddenly spontaneously combusted, turning into a red fireball, burning and flying towards the nearest Yan Xiaoying.

"Be careful!"

I shouted, and the next moment, I saw Yan Xiaoying stretch out her hand violently, like a fly, and slapped the fireball to the ground.

But the flame of the spontaneous combustion of the Fire Insect King was very weird, although Yan Xiaoying slapped the Fire Insect King away, but the palm of her hand was suddenly ignited.

She quickly removed the rubber gloves she was wearing and threw them on the ground.

Within seconds, the rubber gloves were burned to ashes. What's even more terrifying is that after the firefly landed, it immediately ignited a skeleton, which spontaneously combusted and instantly turned into dust and smoke.

The red flames of the fireflies were still burning, and they continued to burn the bones of several corpses around them before they gradually extinguished.

"So powerful!? What kind of firefly is this? ”

I looked at the ashes on the ground and opened my mouth wide in surprise, I couldn't believe my eyes.

This fire is worse than pouring gasoline on it, and if you touch it, it will be over.

Without the fireflies, the red light finally disappeared from the ghost lantern.

When I pulled the petals open, I saw the core inside, which was shaped like a black bead and the size of a pigeon's egg.

Yan Xiaoying took off the black beads, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face, and under the red light, the smile on her face was indescribably weird and gloomy.

"Hallucination, could it be that I'm inhaling too much floral scent?"

Seeing the smile on Yan Xiaoying's face, I immediately thought that I had been poisoned by the fragrance of flowers and hallucinated, so I hurriedly reached out and rubbed my eyes.

But when I looked at her again, I found that Yan Xiaoying had swallowed the black beads in one gulp.

"Don't ......"

It was too late for me to open my mouth to stop it, and after Yan Xiaoying swallowed the black beads, the whole person looked even more weird.

The next moment, I saw strange red hairs growing on her face, and almost instantly, her whole body was covered with dense red hairs.

This change happened so quickly that I didn't have time to react, and Yan Xiaoying turned into a monster with red hair all over her body.

Yan Xiaoying, who had turned into a monster, suddenly pounced on me with a pair of eyes glowing with bloodthirsty cold light.

I was stunned, watching Yan Xiaoying, who had turned into a red-haired monster, pounce on me, and didn't know what to do for a while.

Tear and pull!

Sharp claws tore through my clothes, a deep blood mark on my shoulder, and a sharp pain raged all over my body.

Not an illusion!

If it goes on like this, I will be torn apart by Yan Xiaoying!

The pain brought me back to my senses, and I saw that Yan Xiaoying, who had turned into a red-haired monster, grabbed herself and wanted to tear my arms off alive. I screamed and threw him to the ground.

Struggling to break free from her sharp claws, she scrambled to escape.

However, as soon as I turned around, I saw a dense and innumerable number of red-haired monsters standing behind me, grinning one by one, looking at me coldly.

I've seen this scene before, on the last relief on the fifth floor of the stone tower......
