This deep forest is much bigger than it looks from the outside.

From the outside, it's just a small hill.

But when you really go into the depths of the forest, you will find that it is rugged and there are many deep ravines.

Often from a flat surface, no more than 100 meters away.

But when you get closer, you will find that there is a deep ditch in front of you, and the distance between the top and bottom is three or four hundred meters deep.

Covered in dense forests, it looks even darker below.

"No wonder the monk Wuxiang said that it is easy to trap people to death here, let alone people, I am afraid that ordinary birds may not be able to fly out."

Miao Daoyi looked at the mountain forest in front of him, and couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect that such a sinister place was hidden at such a close distance outside the palace.

Such a deep ditch turns nine times and winds seven times, like a labyrinth.

Coupled with the layer of fog in the mountains and forests that does not disperse all year round.

The fog is shrouded, and the haze is thick, and it is completely blurred, which makes the terrain here even more complicated.

If you are a little careless and step on the wrong place, even if you don't fall to death in the abyss below, I'm afraid you will fall dizzy, and you can't escape death.

This is due to the fact that Zhao Ke and Miao Daoyi both have the ability to see things in the dark.

Otherwise, if you are an ordinary person and walk in, you will not be able to get out.

Zhao Ke didn't speak, he was calm, and he realized where this wisp of evil qi was.

It's just that wisp of evil spirit, looming.

Zhao Ke felt it carefully, and couldn't help frowning.

It's too scattered, one will be east, the other will be west.

It seems like there is nothing, and it seems to be everywhere.

Just when Zhao Ke was worried about what to do, he could accurately find the location of this evil qi.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of chanting in the deep forest.

Listen carefully, the scriptures recited do not seem to be in Chinese, but in Sanskrit that is shy and difficult to understand.

"It's the sound of chanting, as if it came from the valley below."

Miao Daoyi listened carefully for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he pointed to the deep ditch below and said to Zhao Ke.

"Let's go down and have a look."

A little under Zhao Ke's feet, he saw that around him, the vines seemed to be given life, like countless giant snakes coiled left and right, weaving a rope ladder for Zhao Ke.

"You Maoshan Sect still have this kind of Dao technique?"

Miao Daoyi looked at the rope ladder under Zhao Ke's feet, and couldn't help but be surprised.

"It's just a small technique, it's not as good as the sword art of your Quanzhen Sect."

Zhao Ke's words were true, and with envious eyes, he looked at the sword clamp behind Miao Dao.

Although there is Da Xia Ding who can take him to escape.

But after all, it can't compare to the flying sword.

The two are like a four-wheeled car and a two-wheeled motorcycle.

The four wheels carry the body, but after all, it is not as pleasant as the motorcycle carrying the soul.

"Hmph, that's right!"

Miao Dao raised his nose one by one, and finally found a little confidence, otherwise the longer he followed Zhao Ke, the more he found that Zhao Ke's methods were endless, mysterious and strange.

Miao Daoyi's self-confidence has been hit hard recently.

The two of them walked down the valley step by step on the rope ladder.

Before it hit the ground, the fog from the pavement hit.

Seeing this, Miao Dao hurriedly took out two pills from the gourd on his waist.

"This is an elixir refined by my uncle, which can drive away evil spirits and avoid poison."

This deep forest has not seen time all year round, and there is a lot of rot below, and there are countless poisonous insects, snakes and scorpions, although they are not afraid, they do not want to be contaminated by these things.

"Isn't your Quanzhen Sect rejecting Danding Liu? Do you still make alchemy? ”

Zhao Ke despised Miao Daoyi, and quietly threw the pill into the stamp album to take a look.

Silver item: Filthy Pill

After eating, within three hours, it can be immune to poison damage, and has a strong expulsion effect on poisonous insects, snakes and scorpions and other highly venomous creatures.

(Note: After ingestion, please wait for 10 minutes for the effect to take effect.) ）

Seeing this, Zhao Ke nodded in his heart, took out the pill again, and ate it in one bite.

Miao Daoyi defended Zhao Ke's words: "My Quanzhen Sect rejects Danding Liu, because I feel that using pills to help increase cultivation is originally the law of the outer Dao, although it has mana, but it has a shallow understanding of the way of heaven, so it is forbidden to eat pills to help increase cultivation, and pills such as Bigu Dan and healing pills can't be rejected of course, otherwise it won't be because of choking." ”

"I see."

When Zhao Ke heard this, he had some understanding of the Quanzhen Sect in his heart.

But after thinking about it, I felt that it was too extreme.

Cultivating both inside and outside is the king, otherwise you will see the sambar deer this old immortal.

Every day, the thermos cup in his left hand, wolfberry and red dates and ginseng slices, he was clamoring for health.

is obviously a deer, but he has lived the style of a king.

As he spoke, Zhao Ke suddenly smelled that he didn't know when, and a special fragrance was already pouring out.

It's the effects that have already begun to work.

Seeing this, the two stepped down the deep valley.

"Click!"

After Zhao Ke landed on the ground, he looked down and saw that there was a thick layer of white bones under his feet.

I don't know if these bones are animal or human.

It's a mess, but I don't know how long it has been, and the white bones have already decayed and turned into dust with a slight thump.

"Hiss ......"

A black snake with a head like a soldering iron seems to be affected by the smell of Zhao Ke and Miao Dao.

Swallowing the slender snake letter, it crawled out from Zhao Ke's feet, the black and bright snake body writhed, and the bright red diamond-shaped pattern on the body was particularly dazzling.

In the deep valley, the chanting seemed to be much louder than before.

However, when Zhao Ke and Miao Daoyi walked along the rugged mountain road in front of them all the way to the end, they saw that there was an empty basin in front of them.

There was nothing to see but cliffs.

However, the sound of chanting, as if it had reached this point, stopped abruptly and could no longer be heard.

"Strange, I heard the sound just now, it's obviously here, why is it a dead end?"

Miao Daoyi was strange in his heart, but after speaking, he didn't see Zhao Ke respond to him, and when he looked back, he saw Zhao Ke actually squatting on the ground, staring at the stone slab in front of him with a serious expression.

"You see, the texture on these slates."

Zhao Ke gently shook the weeds around him with his hand, and Miao Dao stepped forward to take a look, and sure enough, what else was carved on these stones, but it was too vague to see clearly.

Zhao Ke stood up, his eyes scanned the surroundings for a moment, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes: "This place was a long time ago, it should have been a temple. ”

"Are you kidding? Who is well fed to sustain the temple to such a place?? ”

Miao Dao looked left and right, no matter how you looked, you can't see that this kind of place can build a temple.

I'm afraid that the monk lives here, and he won't be eaten clean by those poisonous snakes, insects and ants.

Zhao Ke didn't explain much to Miao Daoyi, he walked in front with a frown, and when he walked to a stone wall full of vines, his eyes showed a burning essence, and he waved his hand.

"Pop ......"

I saw a rattle of tree vines, which was torn off by Zhao Kesheng, and the stone wall covered by the bare and covered, a relief of a headless Buddha statue appeared in front of the two.

Around the Buddha statue, there are also scriptures inscribed in Sanskrit.

If you look closely, you will find that the wood residue left on the ground should be an incense case.

Zhao Ke kicked and kicked out a rotten futon from the dust.

Under all kinds of evidence, Miao Daoyi was stunned for a while, and exclaimed: "Is it really a temple?" How can you tell? ”

Zhao Ke pointed to the stones on the side: "Don't you think the lines of those stones around you are too straight?" ”

It turned out that the surrounding stones were covered with vegetation over the years, and some of them were even submerged in the soil.

But if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that these stones have obvious traces of polishing.

plus the lines carved on the stone that Zhao Ke had just seen.

and the sound of Fang Cai's chanting, which made Zhao Ke guess that this place may have been a temple a long time ago.

It's just that as Miao Daoyi said, who would build a temple in such a place?

As soon as Miao Dao walked in front of the other stone walls, he summoned the flying sword behind him, and after a few strokes of the brush, he cut off all the vines that were bound to be around him.

Suddenly, the vines collapsed and rolled up the smoke and dust.

I saw that on the surrounding stone walls, there were all reliefs and scriptures of the Buddha sitting cross-legged.

This further confirmed Zhao Ke's conjecture that this was indeed a temple.

At this time, Miao Daoyi looked stunned, looked at the Buddha statues around him, and said in surprise for a while: "Wait, no, why don't these Buddha statues have heads?" ”

The Buddha statue on the stone wall is vivid, even if it is not known how many years have passed, but the details are still vivid.

It's like the finger of a Buddha statue.

Hand pinched lotus, dignified and elegant, delicate to the point that even the nails are delicately depicted.

However, these Buddha statues do not have heads.

It was as if their heads had been cut off out of thin air.

"Because, someone doesn't allow them to exist." A hoarse male voice quietly came from behind him.

Zhao Ke's face changed suddenly, but he didn't rush to turn back, but grabbed Miao Daoyi's shoulder beside him, and quickly jumped out of ten meters, and then turned around.

Looking back, I saw a monk in plain clothes standing there in the shadows behind him, I don't know when.

The monk folded his hands and slowly raised his cheeks.

In those black and white eyes, two golden Buddha lotuses were born.

He arched his hand towards Zhao Ke and Miao Dao and said with a smile: "Poor monk Dajue, I have seen two donors. ”
