Hearing Hu San's words, Xixia looked happy and said, "Very good, Uncle Hu has a heart." ”

"The villain has been waiting for the return of the young lady, and today I am willing to do my best to drive it." Hu Sandao.

"Uncle Joe, how many men do you have?" Xixia asked.

"It's embarrassing to say, the seven absolute demons have occupied the valley over the years, and even the spiritual power is a lot shallow, and the villain is now only one hundred and fifty under the clan, but ......" Hu San said with shame: "Although the villain has few people, he is familiar with the terrain in the valley, and may be of some use." ”

"Very good, then bother Uncle Qiao to lead the clansmen to ambush around the Giant Bamboo Castle, and if you find that the remnants of the Seven Absolute Demons have escaped, try to intercept and encircle them." Xixia Road.

"Yes! The villain is going to prepare. Hu San immediately agreed, paused and said: "The Seven Absolute Demons are very cruel, and I hope that Miss will take care of herself." ”

"Well, I'll be careful." Yuxia replied with a smile.

Hu San took a deep splendour, and once again turned into light smoke and disappeared.

"What kind of person is this old man, he doesn't look like a human being......" Li Changjing frowned, and before Hu San left, he quickly unfolded his faceless eyes and swept over, only to see a yellow shadow crawling on the ground, with a fluffy tail behind him, which turned out to be a huge fox with a body close to a dog.

"It seems that there are not many normal people in this giant bamboo valley at all......" Li Changjing only found it interesting, for spirits, as long as they are kind, he will never reject them, nor will they discriminate at all.

The four tiger spider chariots were preparing to move forward after the dynasty, when suddenly a demon general rushed over and said loudly: "Qiqi Palace Master, the second son of the Heavenly Eagle General and the army, Ma Tianhai, has arrived, and is waiting in front!" ”

Xixia suddenly showed a look of surprise on her face and said, "Lead the way." ”

Li Changjing was stunned, and his heart beat suddenly: "Ma Tianying's second son? His father is one of the four pillars of the imperial court, and he is the famous undefeated god of war. ”

Four tiger spider chariots galloped all the way, under the guidance of the demon general, soon saw a strange horse, and when they came to the front, they found that it was forty or fifty runic stone lions, and next to them stood a man who looked like a general, nearly thirty years old, white robe and silver armor, tall and strong, heroic.

Xi Xia jumped out of the car and called, "The one in front is the second son of Ma, the commander of the horse?" ”

"It's Ma Tianhai down there, is the girl the master of the young valley?" The man said loudly.

Li Changjing looked carefully and saw that his starry eyes and sword eyebrows showed talent, but his angular face was not handsome, and he was very general-like, so he couldn't help but think a little higher about this person.

Xixia gave a blessing and said, "The little girl is." ”

Ma Tianhai arched his hand and said: "I came to help the young valley master on the order of my father, but I hope it is not too late." ”

"The generals came at the right time!" Xi Xia Xi said: "I heard that the war in Yunzhou is tense, and Ling Zun even sent troops to help, this kindness, the little girl must remember it." ”

"The young valley master doesn't have to be polite, my father and Ling Zun are deep friends, and it is incumbent on me to send them down to help." Ma Tianhai paused, and then said: "Yunzhou is indeed very nervous, and I hope that the young valley master will not forget the promise in the letter, and when this matter is over, he will give us some divine soldiers and treasure cars." ”

"This must be." Xi Xia said: "In addition, settle down here, and I will immediately lead my subordinates to Yunzhou to support." ”

Ma Tianhai was overjoyed and said: "If you can get the help of the young valley master, Yunzhou will be broken in the near future!" ”

"Dare to ask the Great Commander, what kind of artifacts are these soldiers and horses you brought?" Xixia pointed to the stone lions behind him.

"Back to the young valley master, these stone lions are the newly refined armor soldiers of our military division, although the action is slow, but the strength is infinite, I hope they can help a little." Ma Tianhai said modestly.

Xi Xia was surprised: "It turned out to be an immortal soldier refined by Di Xianji, it must be very powerful." ”

"How to dispatch at the moment, although the young valley lord orders, he will definitely follow the instructions." Ma Tian Haidao.

"You're welcome." Xixia groaned slightly, and then said: "The Great Commander of Annoyance led the supplement to the west of Juzhu Fort, and converged with our troops to launch an attack at three o'clock in the middle of the night. As he spoke, he took out something from the small pouch on his waist and said, "This is the token of the main palace, and the commander will take it and go forward, so naturally someone will contact him." ”

Ma Tianhai took the token and said, "I will definitely live up to the order of the young valley master!" After that, he resolutely turned around, stepped on a stone lion quickly, and recited the mantra in his mouth, and the dozens of stone lions around him immediately moved, and in an instant, the dust flew and rumbled in one direction.

Summer jumped back into the car.

"It's amazing, those stone lions seem to be a bit similar to your agency troops." Li Changjing sighed at her.

"Well, Di Xianji is a well-known refiner in Daze Township and the Outer Sea, and refiners and imperial armor have always been the same." Xixia nodded.

"Compared with these two strange soldiers, I don't know which one is more powerful?" Li Changjing said curiously.

"Of course, the bamboo soldiers in the summer are powerful, the sword is not bad, and it is difficult to invade the water and fire, which has always been coveted by many people." Xiao Zi said with a smile: "If it weren't for the Tiger Spider Chariot and the Bamboo Soldiers, Ma Tianying wouldn't have sent his son to help, so it can be seen that his wife Di Xianji's stone lion soldiers are definitely not as good as the bamboo soldiers in Xixia." ”

"Really?" Li Changjing looked at the sunset.

"Let's go." Xixia is noncommittal.

The four Tiger Spider chariots continued to gallop forward, and in less than half an hour, they had overtaken all the teams.

The surrounding wind and insect chirping gradually became clearer, and the forest seemed to be extremely quiet.

Suddenly, Li Changjing saw a verdant giant castle that reached into the clouds from among the dense branches and leaves, and said in a condensed voice: "It's time to the giant bamboo castle!" ”

"No, it's four or five miles away." Xixia Road.

"Four or five miles away?" Li Changjing was slightly stunned.

"Well, the Giant Bamboo Castle is very tall, so it looks like it's very close." Xixia explained.

"Xixia, I remember you said that there is a very beautiful pool in the sky on the giant bamboo fort!" Xiao Zi said excitedly.

"We'll pass by there later, let's hurry up and get down and you can play there." Xi Xia Dao, saying this, suddenly made a gesture, and the guards driving the car immediately braked the tiger spider chariot, and the three cars behind also stopped.

"This is it?" Xiao Zi asked.

"What here?" Li Changjing looked around.

Xixia jumped out of the car and flew back and forth through the woods, as if looking for something.

"What is she doing?" Li Changjing asked Xiao Zi in a low voice.

"Find the entrance." Xiao Zi replied.

"Entrance? What entrance? Li Changjing was stunned.

"The secret entrance of the Giant Bamboo Castle can be entered through an underground secret passage." Little Purple Road.

"With such a secret passage, wouldn't it be possible to come by surprise!" Li Changjing's heart was greatly excited.

"That's exactly what I want, but Xixia said that this secret passage is very narrow and can't be passed through by a large group of people, and it's not sure if it has been discovered by the Seven Absolute Demons." Xiao Zi said again.

As he was talking, he saw Xixia stop in front of a large cluster of bamboos, beckoning and shouting, "All come here!" ”

The four tiger spider chariots immediately gathered in the past, and came to the side of Xixia, only to see her take out a talisman from her bag, chant silently in her mouth, Lan Zhi popped out, and the talisman disappeared immediately, and suddenly the light shone brightly, reflecting the stinging pain in everyone's eyes, and subconsciously covering it with her hand.

Li Changjing's eyes narrowed slightly, but in a few seconds, the light had disappeared, and when he opened his eyes again, he found that the surrounding scene had completely changed, the four tiger spider chariots and the people on the cart were all in a circle of impermeable bamboo bushes, there was a wide open space of four or five meters, and there were bamboo rows on the ground in the center, which were overgrown with weeds, and it was impossible to see where the edge was hidden.

"Why are you here all of a sudden?" Li Changjing asked in surprise.

"I used the Ground Shifter." Xixia replied, pointing to the ground and shouting, "Lift up the bamboo raft!" ”

Eight praying mantis craftsmen moved in response, jumped down from the four tiger spider chariots one after another, walked to the bamboo row, stretched out a long arm like a hook saw, and grabbed the bamboo row on the ground, and then exerted force at the same time, only a few times the sound of pricking was heard, and the bamboo row began to rise off the ground, and a hole nearly two meters wide soon appeared below.

Everyone went over, and cautiously looked down at the entrance of the cave, only to see that there were steps inside, and they leaned down, and the depths were pitch black, and there was nothing to see.

Xixia shouted to the guards: "You stay here and keep it as a backup!" ”

The guards received the order, and each drove the tiger spider chariot and the mantis craftsman to scatter in all directions, forming a formation around the entrance of the cave to set up defenses.

Xixia took the lead and ran into the cave, Li Changjing and Xiaozi hurriedly followed, and suddenly there was a light in the dark, it turned out that Xixia had an extra strange bead in his hand that emitted a soft white light.

Li Changjing saw that although the luster of the beads was soft, the brightness was full, and he was curious: "What is this?" ”

"Shark beads." Xia Xia answered.

"Shark Pearl? Legend has it that the shark beads are made of the tears of the shark people, I don't know if it's true? ”

Yuxia held the beads alof, and looked around vigilantly as she walked.

This is a road as high as two meters and a half meters high, about two meters wide, the top and bottom are covered with Jinling bamboo support, obviously some years, the color of the bamboo is slightly yellow, and there are many weeds out of the cracks.

"How do you have this kind of shark bead?" Li Changjing was really curious about the beads in her hand, and couldn't help but ask again.

"I caught a mermaid sister in the sea outside the sky and forced her to cry for three days and three nights." Xixia said expressionlessly.

"Really?" Li Changjing's mouth opened wide.

Xixia glared at him, took a step and continued to run towards the depths of the corridor.

"What's the daze? Let's go! Xiao Zi shouted, flying past him like a butterfly.

Li Changjing came back to his senses at this time, hurriedly stepped up to follow, and suddenly laughed dumbly: "She must be joking, how could Xixia be so ruthless." ”

There were no branches in the road, and the four of them rushed quickly, without encountering any troubles, and after about half an hour, the eyes suddenly opened up, and Li Changjing suddenly saw shadows on both sides, like many tall David soldiers with swords standing, and couldn't help but be surprised, but the footsteps were no longer able to stop, and followed the Xixia in front of him and plunged in.

"There's an ambush!" Xiao Zi at the back exclaimed, and instantly showed his weapon.

"Don't panic! These are the guards of the secret passage, and they have not yet been controlled by the Seven Absolute Demons! Xia Xia shouted.

Li Changjing looked intently, and saw more than a dozen tall bamboo people standing on the walls on both sides of the road, all wearing heavy bamboo armor, holding a giant sword made of golden spirit bamboo in their hands, their faces were smooth and flat without facial features, and their appearance was very powerful and terrifying.

"Why didn't you say it earlier, scare me!" Xiao Zi patted her heart and said angrily.

The dozen or so bamboo figures stood quietly against the wall, not reacting to a few intruders.

"It seems that the secret passage has not been discovered by those demons." Summer is moving forward quickly.

"What are these stakeholders? It looks very majestic, as if I haven't seen it in your bamboo soldiers. Li Changjing said.

"They are called Sword Commanders, there are very few of them, they are the high-level organs of my Giant Bamboo Valley, they are first-class in both attack and defense, and their individual combat ability is second only to the Sky Spider." Xixia Road.

"That's amazing!" Li Changjing praised and asked, "But why don't they move at all?" Could it be that they haven't been used for too long, and everything is broken? ”

"Their job is to guard the door, and if you get it wrong and you get it wrong, you'll know if they're broken." Xixia said lightly.

Li Changjing turned his head to look and saw that she had reached the end of the corridor, facing a closed bamboo door engraved with strange runes.

"This is already under the Giant Bamboo Castle, as long as you pass through this gate, you can enter the inside of the Giant Bamboo Castle." Xixia picked up the shark beads and moved them up close to the grooves of the runes carved on the bamboo door.

"Then you must know how to open this door?" Li Changjing walked over and looked at the bamboo door in front of her with her.

"I hope I'm not mistaken." Xixia said, took a step forward, raised his right hand, and pressed a round bamboo bead embedded in the rune groove on the bamboo door with his fingers.

"Xixia, be careful." Xiao Zi looked nervously at both sides.

The road is very quiet, and there are more than a dozen pairs of silent bamboo people, which seems a little eerie and terrifying.

Xixia moved her fingers, pressed the round bamboo beads and rolled along the grooves of the runes, and when she reached the fork of the runes, she pondered for a while, and then chose one of them to continue rolling away.

"The track of this groove seems to be some kind of ......deformation of the Nine Palaces," Xiao Zi rubbed his chin and said strangely.

Li Changjing looked at it carefully, nodded and said, "Sure enough, it's a bit similar, I didn't expect that there was such a way to arrange it." ”

"Don't make noise, be careful of disturbing the summer." Xiao Zi glared at him, but after saying that, she became a little scared again, shrunk her neck and said softly: "If the beads roll in the wrong way, will these bamboo people really come to attack us?" ”。

"Yes." Xixia stared at the bamboo gate and said, "They will clean up all the life in this corridor." ”

Li Changjing and Xiao Zi's hearts sank, and they were immediately silenced.

Xixia's hand suddenly stopped, and the bamboo beads pressed by his fingertips paused in a place with three branches.

"What's wrong?" Li Changjing asked in a low voice.

"I forgot how to get around this place." Xixia Road.

The two people next to him immediately became nervous, and Li Changjing smiled dryly: "How powerful are these sword commanders?" ”

"A Sword Commander can probably take out ten falcons, five spearmen, or three war eagles." Xixia said lightly.

Li Changjing gasped.

"You are ready to fight." Xixia sighed, "Let's see if God is willing to help us." As he spoke, he pinched his fingers and rolled towards one of the branches of the fork in the road with a bamboo bead.

I only heard a soft "click", as if it came from a very long distance, but other than that, there was no movement.

"I didn't ...... Didn't get it right? Li Changjing looked at the bamboo gate and then at the sword commanders standing on both sides.

"Wait." Xixia frowned, as if listening to something.

A few seconds later, I heard a "click" again, but the sound was much louder, and then the sound of a zha was heard, and the bamboo door finally slowly moved to the right, revealing a doorway in the back.

"It worked!" Xiao Zi jumped on the spot with cheer.

"The response is so slow, it seems that this door is in disrepair and is about to break." Li Changjing wiped his sweat and said.

"Don't pretend to understand if you don't know, the source of power is far away, doesn't it take time to transmit power!" Xixia has no good airway.

"I see." Li Changjing suddenly realized: "I once went to an underground skull nest, where the mechanism uses the lake above as a source of power, I don't know what your giant bamboo castle uses?" ”

"A vein." The sunset walked forward.

The other three hurriedly followed, and Li Changjing said, "Use a qi vein as a source of power?" ”

"Hmm." Xixia said: "There are ten spiritual veins in Daze Township, and Juzhu Valley has ...... of them."

"I know this, it's Taibi, right?" Li Changjing said, suddenly thinking of the giant nest above Taibi, and the longing for Xu Huairou in his heart was a little stronger, I don't know how she is doing in Zeyang City now?

"That's right, but Taibi is just the image of the yang vein, and the other half of the yin vein is here, which is the foundation center of our giant bamboo castle." Xixia Road.

"This spiritual vein is still divided into yin and yang?" It was the first time Li Changjing had heard this kind of statement.

"Each spiritual vein is different, just the crystal pool in the ten spiritual veins represents balance, has the effect of stability, deployment and integration, and plays a buffering role in the five phases; The happy crystal represents life, has the function of prolonging life and enhancing the power of the yuan, especially for the water between heaven and earth; The dream nest represents the fundamental, has the power to nurture and protect, consolidate the foundation and cultivate the yuan, and is of great benefit to all earthly things; And the Taibi of our Giant Bamboo Valley represents vitality, has the ability to grow, restore and reproduce, and is of supreme benefit to all wood things. "Xixia Road.

"I see." Li Changjing said, admiring Xixia more and more in his heart, he couldn't see that she was young, but she knew a lot of things, which was very similar to Lu Li.

"Ah, why is there no way?" Xiao Zi suddenly shouted.

Li Changjing looked at it, and sure enough, there were walls on three sides in front of him, and there was no way out.

Xixia walked to a corner unhurriedly, stretched out his hand and held an inconspicuous bamboo pole inlaid in the wall, and gently wrenched it, Xuan immediately heard the sound of pricking, and the four of them floated, all of them rising rapidly.

"What kind of mechanism is this?" Li Changjing was greatly surprised.

"It's a longitudinal teleportation platform, and there's a lot more in the Giant Bamboo Castle." Xixia Road.

"Where will it send us?" Li Changjing asked again.

"Yumengtai." Xixia said: "The highest place in Juzhu Castle." ”

"And then?"

"Then sneak into the interior of the Giant Bamboo Castle from there, and then try to find a way to touch the center of the lower level." Xixia Road.

"Grab the warrant, right?" Li Changjing continued to ask.

Xixia shook her head and said, "Go and seal Taibi's Yin veins." ”

"Seal Taibi's Yin Vein?" Li Changjing said curiously: "Why? ”

"Because Taibi's spiritual veins have a very amazing growth and reproduction effect on wood things, as long as it exists, the entire Giant Bamboo Fort is 'alive' and will be unbreakable, and all the guards made of golden spirit bamboo in the range of the Giant Bamboo Fort will have multiplied or even several times the combat power." Yuxia replied.

"It's so terrible!" Li Changjing was speechless: "How can a castle be 'lived'? ”

"It's like a living being, it has the ability to heal itself, for example, if a part is damaged, it can quickly recover on its own." Xixia Road.

"So amazing?" Li Changjing's mouth opened wide.

At this moment, the four of them felt the upward momentum paused, and the bamboo wall in front of them suddenly shrank to the side, and Xixia still stepped out first, and the other two followed.

"Wow!" Xiao Zi snorted.

Li Changjing hurriedly looked, it turned out that the three of them had stood on a high platform, the lower part of the front was a huge circle with a diameter of seventy or eighty meters, the circle was composed of countless green bamboos, and there were thousands of golden spirit bamboos on the top, all of which were inclined to the center, and thousands of water columns rolled out from one of their exits, like thousands of crystal springs with a wonderful arc to the huge pond in the center, which was incomparably magnificent and magnificent, and it was intoxicating and shocking.

"It's so beautiful! This is the air pool you are talking about? Xiao Zi exclaimed.

"Well, this is Yumengtai." Xixia nodded, took a step forward, and carefully observed the bottom.

"It's really beautiful, how can you bring water to such a high place?" Li Changjing was also shocked by the scene in front of him.

Xixia didn't answer, but her eyes quietly moistened.

At this time, the sky is dark, the moon in the sky is as bright as a mirror, and the whole pond is like a glittering huge jewel, and the thousands of fine springs around it are like silver threads decorated for it, and occasionally the wind blows, and between these silver threads, it will blow up bursts of misty mist like smoke and dew, and add a layer of charming veil to the wonders in front of you.

"There's a guard over there!" Li Changjing suddenly shouted in a low voice.

Xiao Zi stared at it, and sure enough, he saw a row of gunmen standing diagonally opposite the wall, because the color was very close to the bamboo wall behind him, and he would really ignore it if he didn't look carefully.

Xixia was as calm as ever, and it was obvious that she had already discovered it.

"Where do we get into the fort?" Li Changjing asked.

"There." Yuxia pointed to a doorway on the opposite side.

"It's so close to the guards, we'll be found in the past." Little Purple Road.

"Then I won't go." Xixia Road.

"Not going over?" Li Changjing was stunned.

Xixia actually sat down on the stage and said, "Wait." ”

"Wait? Wait for them to be removed? Li Changjing frowned.

"Most of these posts will not be removed overnight." Xixia Road.

"So what are you waiting for?" Li Changjing said: "Why don't I go and lure them away?" ”

"Look over there." Yuxia pointed to a high platform opposite.

The three people next to them looked over and saw that the bamboo clusters were dense above, and Li Changjing asked, "What's wrong over there?" ”

"There are hundreds of trap eagles hidden in that bamboo forest, if you don't want to live, you can try to lure them." Xixia Road.
