He held her hand, "How can you practice magic without hard work." If you don't have the help of God, how can you achieve great things? ”

"But after all, it's only five years old, how can my parents bear it...... What about your parents?" Suddenly I found that I still didn't know anything about him, and I really wanted to know about him, including the past.

A complicated look flashed on his face, and he said lightly: "When you come out of the Ghost Valley, I will take you back to meet them." ”

Yun Moxi's face flushed, "Why should I go back with you to see my parents, naturally I want to go back to Yangzhou." ”

"The ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her in-laws!" He smiled wickedly, he just liked to tease her.

"Hello? Are you still the murderous ghost eater? even molested a woman from a good family. Yun Mo pushed him away in disgust.

"I'm happy to see you blushing."

"You can even see me blushing?" Yun Mo Xi was shocked and ashamed, there was no light in the cave, and it was only because he was so close in the dark that he could see each other clearly.

"I couldn't have seen it, but I can imagine it when you said it." He smiled wickedly.

Yun Moxi knew that he had been tricked again, this person was getting more and more excessive, and he was no longer the Yun family leader in front of him.

While he was laughing, someone outside the cave shouted, "Are you two inside?" "It was the voice of the maid yesterday.

"In ...... Come in. Yun Moxi responded, and hurriedly pulled Yi Xiechen to sit up.

The maid heard the laughter of the two and was inconvenient to come in, but said outside the cave, "The holy maiden invites you two to the council chamber." ”

The two walked out together.

"Please lead the way, girl." Yun Moxi said.

Mai Mai lowered her head and looked at the two of them embarrassedly, turned around and led the way in front.

After walking for a while, I came to the big cave hall from yesterday.

The Holy Maiden and the six Great Elders were already waiting there, and one of the elders had died yesterday, and someone had already filled the vacancy. There were also some other Mai people standing in the back, presumably also people with higher seniority in the clan.

Seeing the two of them coming in, the saint said kindly, "Can you rest well?" Life in the cave is hard, don't get used to it! ”

"Thank you, Holy Maiden, it's already very good." Yun Moxi said.

"Hey, I don't want to embarrass you, but the Mai clan has strict rules that must not be disobeyed for hundreds of years. I hope that the two of them can help the clansmen find a way to relieve the poison after entering the Ghost Valley. ”

"The Holy Maiden is grateful for giving us the opportunity, and she will do her best, even if she can't achieve it, she will be willing to accept the punishment according to the clan rules." Yun Moxi said, the two looked at each other and had a clear mind.

"That's very good. It's just that what is in the Ghost Valley, no one has entered it for hundreds of years, so we can only send you halfway up the mountain, which is already our limit. The rest is up to you. The saint admonished.

"Then no one has entered the Ghost Valley since the Holy Venerable?" Yun Moxi asked.

The saint hesitated for a moment, and after a while she sighed, "Fifty years ago, a couple went in. ”

"Oh? And then? Did you come out safely? ”

"They entered the Valley of Ghosts, but they did not see the wordless book of heaven, nor did they see any of the treasures in the legend. The lady also died in the valley of ghosts, and her husband was heartbroken and wanted to follow her, but after all, he couldn't give up the world, so he chose to survive, leaving alone and desolate, and never heard from her. ”

"But why do you let him come and go as he pleases?" Yun Mo asked puzzled.

The saint looked into the distance, a mist appeared in her eyes, and the old man's voice became more and more old and weak, "It is also done according to the clan rules, and he can fight his life with his life, so he can go out of the valley smoothly." ”

"Is it because his wife is dead, so one life is worth one life?"

There was silence for a while, and then the holy woman said, "No. The couple also brought two apprentices with them when they broke into the Wenxiang Valley. They are willing to stay in the Mai clan forever and let the master leave safely. ”

"No wonder, that's why I was allowed to go to the Ghost Valley and leave safely. These two apprentices really have a deep friendship. Yun Moxi said with a sigh.

"yes...... That's when I became a saint! The old man's voice was full of emotion, and the events of decades ago seemed to be just yesterday, and in a blink of an eye, he was full of gray hair.

Yun Moxi's heart moved, and he wanted to ask again.

The gray-clothed elder coughed twice and said, "The hour is getting late. Let's go early! ”

The holy woman retracted her mind, the fog in her eyes dissipated, nodded and stood up, "Okay, let's go now." "Walked out first.

When the sun was shining outside the cave, everyone stopped and returned when they arrived at the entrance of the cave.

Only the saint was tightly wrapped and even her eyes were covered with a black veil, leading the way in front.

Outside the cave, Yun Moxi took a breath, feeling that the smell was much lighter than at night.

Although it was already noon, the sun could not fully cover the whole valley, and the mountains on three sides were too high for the sun to shine through the dense forest.

The saintess hurried ahead without saying a word or looking back, obviously the sun made her extremely uncomfortable.

The two walked behind, looking around at Yun Mo to observe the scene in the Wenxiang Valley.

I saw that there were very few tall woods in the valley, all of them were low trees and meadows, and strange rocks were stacked, and even in the daytime, it always felt like a thin layer of fog shrouded in it.

After walking for a while, the rumbling sound of a waterfall in the distance came.

It was not until they reached the bottom of the waterfall that the saint stopped, looked at them and nodded, and flew up to the mountain wall and disappeared in a flash.

"I'll carry you up!" As he spoke, he picked up Yun Moxi and jumped up, only to see that there was a sunken mountain road on the mountain wall above. He jumped up with it.

It was a narrow path, and the water from the waterfall splashed on it, and it was unusually slippery. If you are not a person with excellent skills, it will be absolutely difficult to walk on it.

Holding her and walking forward on the trail for a while, I saw that there was a big cave behind the waterfall. Because the water curtain is hidden, it is not visible from the outside.

Although the entrance to the cave is a little slippery, it is still spacious and flat, and it is normal to walk compared to the path outside.

The holy woman stood at the entrance of the cave and waited for the two of them.

Putting down Yun Moxi, he pulled her to follow the saint to the cave.

Walking inside, it is also in the belly of the mountains, but it is not like the cave where the Mai people live, this cave is not completely closed, it is unusually tall and spacious. And it's bright, you can see the sky when you look up, and there are flowers, trees, and water in it.

The saint looked back at the two of them, "This is the holy place of the Mai clan - the Water Curtain Cave, and only the saints of the past can come." It is also the burial place of the saint's old age. When a new saint is chosen, the old saint must come here on her own and wait for the saint to summon her to slowly die. ”

Although the two of them saw the beautiful scenery here, they thought of being a saint all their lives, but when they were old, they would be abandoned in this barren mountain and deep cave and die alone.

How cruel - looking at the old face of the saint was a little sympathetic.

"The Water Curtain Cave is also the highest and farthest place that the Mai clan can reach. Far away, the poison in the body will attack and die. That's why I can only take you here. The rest of the way is to be done on your own. ”

"Where is the entrance to the Ghost Valley?" Yun Moxi asked.
