The old dwarf said, "How many of you have seen the spring water outside?" ”

Xiao Laodao didn't say a word, the master nodded, and the old dwarf continued: "That is the lifewater of our clan, as long as a few nobles help us keep the pool of spring water, even if our clan has no body, they can die and be reborn." "It's still a draft, and I'll revise it tomorrow.

When the master heard this, he glanced at Xiao Laodao, Xiao Laodao seemed to understand what the master meant by him, pursed his lips, and said unhappily: "Isn't it just a pool of water, let's just keep it." ”

When the old dwarf heard this, he hurriedly arched his hand to Xiao Laodao, "Then there are a few nobles." ”

The master said, "Old immortal, when will those gopher spirits attack?" ”

The old dwarf glanced at the master and said, "Tonight is the deadline, if you don't come tonight, you will definitely come tomorrow at noon." ”

Xiao Laodao sighed when he heard this, and said, "Wait until noon tomorrow, I'm afraid that the daylilies will be cold." ”

The old dwarf hurriedly asked, "What did the Taoist chief say about this?" ”

Xiao Laodao said: "The evil Taoist just now should have escaped, but there are still two of us on the cliff, and the evil Taoist is only afraid that he will attack them......" As he spoke, Xiao Laodao glanced at the three old dwarves a few times, and said: "There is a way that is the three caves of the cunning rabbit, is there only one exit from your valley?" ”

As soon as Xiao Laodao said this, the three old dwarves glanced at each other, stopped for a while, and the old dwarf in the middle nodded to the old dwarf on the left, and the old dwarf on the left looked very reluctant, and said slowly: "There are still ...... There is also an exit, which is for our people to use to hide from strong enemies, and must not be opened until it is absolutely necessary. ”

Xiao Laodao suddenly smiled, "Since you have a way to avoid the enemy, then we don't need to help you guard the pool, and then you can escape through another exit." ”

The old dwarf on the right hurriedly said: "The Dao Chief's words are bad, we can escape, but the water of the life yuan can't be brought out, without the life yuan water, we are like duckweed on the water without a foundation, and the descendants of the poor road will dry up and die, and they must not leave this place unless they have to!" ”

When Xiao Laodao heard this, he smiled even brighter, and said, "It's okay if you can't leave, borrow Dao'er from us and let us leave." ”

The faces of the two old dwarves on the left and right changed slightly, Xiao Laodao glanced at them, and then said, "Don't worry, when we take care of the things outside, we will come back." ”

As soon as Xiao Laodao's voice fell, the two old dwarves on the left and right looked at the old dwarf in the middle at the same time, the old dwarf in the middle muttered for a moment, nodded, and the old dwarf on the left reluctantly said to the master: "A few people, please get up." ”

The grandfather was stunned, and the three old dwarves jumped down from the mound first, and the grandfather and several people also stood up from the stone pier when they saw this.

"Get out of the way and get out of the wood."

The grandfather hurriedly left the stump round table, stood next to it, and saw the old dwarf on the right walking to the stump round table, raised his hand and patted the stump a few times, followed by the ground shook gently, the stump shook with the ground, grew rapidly, and after a while, it grew to more than one person tall and stopped.

Looking at the top of the stump, there was a tree hole more than half a person high, the master looked at the tree hole in astonishment, the master did not expect that they led to another road outside the valley, under the stump round table, but the entrance of the tree hole was a little smaller, and those dwarves went straight into it without a problem, like the master, they had to kneel down and climb in.

Xiao Laodao arched his hand at the three old dwarves at this time and said, "The three old immortals are really righteous, please rest assured, a few people from the poor road will go back when they go!" After speaking, Xiao Laodao was the first to get into the tree hole.

The master also arched his hand towards the three old dwarves, did not speak, and the second climbed in, and then, Xiao Shiyi and Xiao Chujiu also climbed in.

Inside the tree hole, there is a soil hole, the mouth is small and the mouth is large, and after drilling into it, the grandfather and a few people straighten up. Xiao Shiyi lit a torch, and by the light of the torch, several people looked around, it was a stone cave, which seemed to be naturally formed, how tall the two of them were, four or five feet wide, and the cave wall and the top of the cave looked rugged and uneven.

A few people did not stop, and walked up the cave, the bottom of the cave was quite flat, but it was uphill all the way, and it seemed to be going up, but it was a little difficult to walk.

I don't know how long I walked, the cave began to gradually narrow, and finally, Xiao Shiyi took the lead, everyone knelt and climbed forward, climbed not far, there was no road ahead, Xiao Shiyi turned around and made a gesture to everyone, the master was at the back, I didn't see what Xiao Shiyi made a gesture, followed closely, and saw Xiao Shiyi stand up, jumped up, and then disappeared from the cave.

The master was confused at the end, and then Xiao Laodao climbed to Xiao Shiyi's original position, and also straightened up and jumped up, Xiao Laodao actually disappeared, followed by Xiao Chujiu, and after Xiao Chujiu also disappeared, the master climbed over to take a look, and it turned out that there was a hole at the end of the cave.

The master slowly stood up and leaned into the hole, this hole is like a well, because it is dark, not too far, I saw that there seems to be wood on it, the master jumped, grabbed the wood with both hands, followed closely, his eyes lit up, he found himself on a big tree, looked around, Xiao Laodao and several people were also on the tree, looked down and looked again, the middle of the trunk was a hollow, and several people should have jumped out of the tree hole.

Xiao Laodao said at this time: "It's not good, we seem to have reached the opposite side of the cliff." ”

When the master heard this, he hurriedly held on to the branch and looked around the tree, under the moonlight, the tree was lush and green, but it was obvious that this was on the stone mountain, not far away, and the cliff and the dirt mountain on the opposite side could be seen......

The master couldn't help frowning, Xiao Laodao said: "Hurry up and go down to find out, see if there is a way to cross the cliff, if you can't get through, coming out means not coming out." ”

A few people quickly got down from the big tree, walked towards the cliff mouth, walked not far, came to the edge of the cliff, looked at the opposite side again, and indeed came to the opposite side of the cliff, but I don't know which section of the cliff at this time, there was no showgirl and old begging for food on the opposite dirt mountain.

Xiao Laodao immediately ordered a few people, divided into two groups, and searched along the edge of the cliff to see if there was a suspension bridge or road through the cliff, if they couldn't get through, it would be the same as never coming out of the valley.

Then, it was the master who took the little ghost monkey and walked to the left, and Xiao Laodao took the two apprentices to the right.

Speaking of the master, he walked not far along the cliff with the little ghost monkey, and there was a path on the edge of the cliff, and the path zigzagged to the bottom of the cliff.

At this time, the master looked at the path, this time he didn't want to go deep alone, the master was not afraid, he just felt that he was doing it alone, which would make Xiao Laodao unhappy, help those dwarves, Xiao Laodao was already unhappy, and if he left them again, Xiao Laodao would show his bull's nose temper.

After waiting on the side of the road for a while, Xiao Laodao and a few people came over, Xiao Laodao said hello to the master, and then looked at the path on the edge of the cliff.

Xiao Laodao said: "It seems that this road can go down, and after getting to the bottom, as long as we can find the rope we went down before, we can return to the hillside." With that, Xiao Laodao was the first to go down.

The mountain road is steep, not too easy to walk, everyone spent a lot of effort, only then went down to the bottom of the cliff, and then, several people divided into two groups, one to the left, the other to the right, looking for the rope that went down before.

This time, the master walked to the right with the little ghost monkey, but he didn't go far, and he didn't know where a cold wind suddenly came, causing the torch in the master's hand to shake, and it was almost not blown out by the wind.

I saw that on the loess cliff wall, there is a high soil hole, the master said in his heart, there are quite a lot of holes under the cliff, he walked to the entrance of the cave with a torch, and looked inside, the earth hole does not seem to be deep, but the master did not want to go into the earth cave to find out, and the ghost monkey was going to continue to walk forward, at this time, a voice came from the soil hole.

"Third child, go and see, why haven't you sent your children and grandchildren over ...... those foxgloves?"

When the master heard this, he immediately became vigilant and quickly extinguished the torch in his hand.

Immediately after, another voice came from the cave, "Big brother, when I went to the cliff today, I saw a few mortals, as if they were putting up a formation, those rehmannia essences, will they not come to send their children and grandchildren because of those mortals?" ”

"Mortal?"

"Yes, there are a few Taoist priests dressed up, a lame old man, and two young people, a man and a woman, the young man, full of anger, seems to be unusual."

"What do they want to do?"

"I don't know, today's full moon night, yin and yang alternate, they don't want to harvest the aura in the valley."

"Gathering aura?" The voice known as the eldest brother said: "I don't think it's that simple, I'm afraid I want to grab those rehmannia essences with us!" After a pause, the voice said again: "The second and fourth, you two, go to the cliff and take a look, the third and fifth, you go to find those rehmannia essences......"

Speaking of which, the grandfather heard a movement not far from him, the grandfather turned his head to look, Xiao Shiyi ran over at a trot, and the grandfather hurriedly gestured to him: There is a situation, be quiet.

Xiao Shiyi suddenly slowed down his pace and breathing, walked lightly to the master, and gestured to my master: Master, they have found the rope, we can go up.

The master immediately gestured to Xiao Shiyi: Don't be in a hurry to go up first, you go back and tell your master that I have found the gopher spirit's nest, let them come over.

Xiao Shiyi was stunned for a moment after seeing it, and asked the grandfather with a gesture: What about Sister Lan'er and that uncle?

The master gestured and said: Your sister Lan'er is full of martial arts, they should be fine, the gopher spirit in this hole is about to come out, I am here to block it, you go back and call your master over!
