While speaking, Sun Luyuan put down the flashlight, supported the ground with his elbows, and paralyzed himself half-lying and half-sitting.

The afterglow of the flashlight was just enough to illuminate half of his face.

He looked at the swirling pit and said to himself, "The bone refining vessel should be buried at the bottom of the pit." ”

This was said very simply, and I was also curious, so I asked Sun Luyuan: "So sure?" ”

"Ah, Su Ye is not good at illusion," Sun Luyuan stared at the bottom of the pit and said: "Actually, the situation of the Sanqing Association is similar to that of your old family, and there are not many masters in the entire guild, and it is all up to Su Ye to support the situation alone." Such a powerful illusion is definitely not from Su Ye's handwriting, and it is even more unlikely that it was arranged by other congregations. If I'm not mistaken, that illusion should come from the bone refining vessel. ”

"Hey, you haven't said what Huo Ling'er is?"

"Huo Ling'er was originally a divine artifact from Zhongshan, you should know about the Yin Nine Candles, right?"

"I've read the Classic of Mountains and Seas."

Yin nine candles, that is, the legendary candle dragon, it is the mountain god in the Zhongshan area, "The Book of Mountains and Seas" says: "The god of Zhongshan, the name is candle yin, regarded as day, sleep for night, blow for winter, call for summer, do not drink, do not eat, do not rest, breath for the wind; Thousands of miles long, in the east of Wuxi, it is a thing, a human face, a snake body, red, and lives at the foot of Zhong Mountain. ”

Speaking of which, the Yin Nine Candle is also one of the five legendary gods of the world, and some people say that it is the embodiment of the earthly world, when it opens its eyes, it is daytime, when it closes its eyes, it is night, blow a breath, the world will enter the cold winter, exhale, the world is the middle of summer.

However, to this day, people in the industry cannot confirm whether it really exists, and some people claim to have seen it during the Western Anniversary, but after all, after so many years, who said this, and how many of the words are true or false, there is no way to verify.

Anyway, I always thought that the candle dragon did not exist, and the change of day and night was originally the result of the rotation of the earth, and it should have nothing to do with the so-called gods.

I heard Sun Luyuan continue: "Legend has it that this fire spirit is originally transformed by a dragon scale of the nine candles of yin, it has no specific form, it is a wandering spirit hidden in the yin and yang, whenever it appears, it will cause a fire, this fire does not enter the samadhi, does not enter the five elements, except for the fire spirit itself, no one can extinguish it." ”

I said, "This thing must have been imagined by mortals, right?" ”

Sun Luyuan shook his head: "That's not necessarily, our family has a book of strange things in the Ming Dynasty, which records a lot of folk anecdotes, there is a story that says that at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Huo Ling'er appeared in the Longping area, as soon as it appeared, the Longping volcano erupted, and the strange fire raised on the lava was not extinguished until half a month later." ”

"Even if Huo Ling'er really exists, it can't prove that it is the dragon scales on the candle dragon's body, right?"

Sun Luyuan frowned, glanced at me, and then seemed to remember something, sighed and said, "By the way, your family members are all atheists. ”

I smiled, "I'm not an atheist, especially since I got the Nether Treasure, I have become more and more convinced that there are gods in this world. But the gods I understand may not be the same as you understand them. ”

"What's the difference?"

"I can't explain it in one sentence or two, anyway, I think it's the so-called gods, maybe it's some special energy between heaven and earth, not a specific person or life, hey, I can't tell, that's what it means anyway."

Sun Luyuan stared at me for a while, and after a long time, he scratched his head again, with an incomprehensible expression.

The speed of the big pit gradually slowed down, and it was not until it completely stopped that Sun Luyuan spoke: "I've been in contact with you for so two days, I think your cultivation has advanced so quickly, and it is not entirely due to luck." ”

I smiled helplessly: "You're right, my luck has not been very good. ”

Sun Luyuan didn't seem to hear my words, and said to himself: "I reflected on it just now, in fact, the biggest problem with me is that I am not firm enough. To be honest, if I could have the courage of yours, my cultivation would definitely be much higher than it is now. ”

I glanced at him, smiled and said, "I'll just praise me for you." ”

"I'm not joking with you, really," Sun Luyuan looked at me very seriously and said: "This way, I wanted to give up several times, but you never seem to have flinched, although sometimes reckless, but you are very firm no matter what you do, you know, and I think that no matter what you do, you will do it with a winning mentality." ”

"How can I be as good as you say, many times I am hard - hard work, this is no way, inexperienced, I can only come hard."

Saying this kind of thing is indeed a bit of pretending to be modest, in fact, listening to Sun Luyuan praise me, my heart is still quite beautiful.

But I'm not lying, looking back on the past two years in the industry, I don't seem to have ever done anything with a winning mentality, I'm just afraid of losing, especially losing to myself, which will make me look down on myself.

I've been urinating since I was a child, and I'm afraid I can't change it in this life.

Sun Luyuan seemed to see through my thoughts, glanced at me, and said, "What kind of big-tailed wolf, what kind of pretending to be a wolf is the most annoying thing for a person like you to pretend to be modest, it's really hypocritical." ”

I smiled and said to him, "Aren't I here to take care of your mood?" Hey, look at your jealous face, I don't hesitate to talk about you. ”

Sun Luyuan sighed sullenly: "I'm not jealous, it's envy." Seriously, I especially envy people like you who have a backbone, I can't do it, I'm too soft-natured and unassertive. ”

With that, he sighed again, and then fell silent.

I don't know why he suddenly became bitter, but I was too embarrassed to ask him, so I chose to remain silent.

After an hour, I finally came to my senses, got up from the ground, and left the ninth cave with Sun Luyuan.

Sun Luyuan and I both knew in our hearts that this trip to the Nine Dragon Caves was far from over, and if nothing else, there would be a competition between me and him.

The exit of Cave 9 is connected to a shallow tunnel, and at the end of the tunnel hangs a black curtain that hangs down to the end, and to the naked eye, it looks as if the front is shrouded in darkness.

There was a noise behind the curtain, and it sounded like a small cart was approaching quickly.

Soon the curtain was lifted, and the person who lifted the curtain was the doctor I had seen in Mingtang, and beside him was a white-robed messenger, I looked carefully at the corners of his mouth, and there was no mole, so I knew that he was Li Dan.

At that time, Li Dan was still pushing a mobile hospital bed in his hand.

"Are you hurt?" Li Dan asked us from afar.

Sun Luyuan waved his hand: "Just rub a little skin, it's no big deal." ”

After speaking, Sun Luyuan turned his head and smiled at me, and I also returned a smile.

I guess when we walk through this curtain, the two of us will have to fight.

Seeing that the two of us were fine, the doctor turned around and left, Li Dan pushed the hospital bed aside and said to us, "You two should find a place to rest first, and I will go to the stone hall to get you food." Do you still have to change your clothes? ”

I said, "No need to change it, anyway, you'll have to fight after a while, get a new dress, and it will be torn in minutes." ”

"Then you two will have to wait a while," Li Dan said, "If the latter group can also pass through the ninth cave, you have to fight them first." ”

Sun Luyuan looked a little surprised: "Apart from us, can anyone pass through the eighth cave?" ”

Li Dan nodded and said, "He Honghao and Liu Shuwang's group have already entered the lounge. This year's juniors are very good, there are eight groups of people who have entered the sixth cave alone, but when they got to the seventh cave, most of them were brushed down, and in the end, only He Honghao and Liu Shuwang crossed the seventh and eighth caves. Don't worry, no matter what the final result is, the two of you can also be rated as a junior. ”

Sun Luyuan was happy when he heard it: "Yo, the level is so high?" That way, I can go home and have good news. ”

Before the smile on his face unfolded, Li Dan splashed a basin of cold water: "You two are just rated as top in the juniors, and you still can't be ranked in the whole industry." Hey, there are many masters in the junior who don't participate in the spring review, and you 'upper' have quite a lot of water. ”

Sun Luyuan glanced at him, and replied in a long voice: "If you don't say this kind of thing, I know it!" ”

"Just know." Li Dan smiled and pushed the hospital bed away.

Sun Luyuan looked at his back with hatred, and muttered to himself: "What kind of person, I was very happy, but I have to add some blockage to my heart." ”

To be honest, listening to Li Dan's words, I was also a little panicked in my heart, but fortunately, I was used to being beaten when I was a child, and I felt that it was nothing when I thought about it, so I simply stopped thinking about it.

Sun Luyuan seemed to care a lot, with a bitter and hateful face, and when I talked to him, he also looked like he didn't like to answer.

Outside the curtain is a large burial chamber, there is a small door on the south, north and west walls, and when Li Dan left, he walked through the door on the north wall.

He Honghao and Liu Shuwang have just entered the lounge, Sun Luyuan and I will stay here for at least three days, don't worry about eating and drinking, Li Dan will send the supplies over soon, everyone is a practicing family, and there is no problem in paying attention to a few nights on the ground, the key is how to go to the toilet, I am a little anxious now.

Fortunately, the Sanqing Association is not too inhumane, the small door on the south wall leads to a bathroom, and then Sun Luyuan and I opened the west door to see, there is a deep tunnel inside, and there is no end in sight, Sun Luyuan shines a flashlight, and the beam of light fails to penetrate the darkness.

"This should be the exit of the Nine Dragons Cave, right?" Sun Luyuan turned off the flashlight and said to himself.

I nodded, thinking to myself, even if it wasn't an exit, there was probably a warehouse behind the tunnel, nothing special.

On the third day of entering the tomb, Li Dan brought news, saying that Liu Shuwang had successfully broken the barrier, and now he was coming towards us, this guy's means of breaking the pass were quite shady, he attacked his fellow foot He Honghao, causing He Honghao's life to be in danger, Su Hansheng had to crack the illusion, he just took the opportunity of the illusion to be broken, and rushed out of the pit in one go.
