The pig's head opened his eyes and saw me and Liang Ruoyi, Liang Ruoyi was sitting on the ground against the city wall, closing his eyes and taking a nap; And because of the injury on my back, I can't sit or lie down, and I even feel awkward when I squat, so I can only stand next to Liang Ruoyi, like a bodyguard.

"Ahh I really thought you wouldn't wake up yesterday, how does it feel to be immortal? ”

I glared at the pig's head and spat out: "If it weren't for your kid who only cared about himself when he ran, would I have been so miserable?!" ”

The pig's head scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "Okay, okay, count mine and count mine." When you're out, I'll treat you to something delicious! ”

"You know how to eat!" I took another bite of the pig's head, walked to the side, took out the food from my backpack, and gave it to Liang Ruoyi and the pig's head. I ate a meal at four o'clock, and now that I've rested for so long, my strength has almost recovered, but because the medicine is slowly dissipating over time, my back and buttocks, including the two calves, have a sense of pain, and in the next few days, I guess I have suffered guilty.

"What the hell is the mud on those drifters? Is it poisonous? "I asked the pig's head as I ate the bread.

"This, the seventh master should know." The pig's head frowned: "But I have heard the seventh master say this thing before, the black mud on its body is a kind of purple mud at the bottom of the river, generally speaking, it is not so powerful, maybe it is because of the seawater, so it has deteriorated, and it will be so corrosive." It should be non-toxic, you can rest assured of this. ”

I nodded, and asked, "Isn't this thing an evil thing?" ”

"It's not." The pig's head chewed on the ham sausage and said, "This thing is, in a way, half a living person." When they are in the prime of life, they use the high-quality ginseng powder as the base, the black rat wood as the main base, supplemented by sea saliva water and Lingzhu grass, and use the flower bones of the ice and snow lotus as the medicine to make a decoction for them to eat, and then bury it in the purple mud at the bottom of the river, and the person's body functions will stop or slow down as if suspended, and they can live for many years. This principle is very similar to what is now said about freezing people, and after hundreds or thousands of years, they can be dissolved and awakened. ”

I listened a little foggy, and muttered: "No, don't you kid know these things, why is this so professional?" ”

"I was interested in this before, and I asked the Seventh Master, so I remember it more clearly." The pig's head said with a smile, and the meat on his face was squeezed into bun folds with a smile.

"Oh." I nodded, and remembered the dragon head that the seventh master was holding at that time: "By the way, there was a damaged dragon head in the seventh master's hand at that time, I remember that after those dragon heads entered the river, these water drifters woke up, why is this?" ”

"That's Luohan soil!" Without even thinking about it, the pig's head explained: "That thing is a kind of soil that immediately emits a pungent smell when it encounters seawater, which is rare in the world. I had smelled that thing when I came in yesterday, and it was the pungent smell that spread in the underground river, and the drifter was stimulated, and it came to life. ”

"I see...... I swallowed the last bite of bread, drank the milk and looked at the pig's head, but my heart was beating a drum: this guy can't seem to believe it, he always thinks he's stupid, no matter how you look at it these two days, if you're wise, it's stupid, not to mention that this bastard still looks stupid! At this time, when I compare him to the old clam, I prefer the old clam who is real and has something to say - although the old clam did not do a proper job in deliberately kidnapping him.

Kidnap?! I suddenly remembered that when the old clam was kidnapped, Sun Miaomiao and they knew about it, and said that the kidnapper was an old friend of theirs, now that I think about it, doesn't it mean that Sun Miaomiao and they have also cooperated with Xu Zeming? To some extent, the Seventh Master and Sun Miaomiao are already a partnership!

However, if this is the case, why would Sun Miaomiao and Chai Lao Wu give the dragon carved jade plate to the second uncle?! The only explanation is that they didn't tell Xu Zeming the secret of the iron box, so they had the courage to hand over the dragon carved jade plate to the second uncle. This can be regarded as finding a way back, if you can't get anything from Xu Zeming, there is still hope for the second uncle.

Alas, when I think of the picture of the seventh master and Chai Lao Wu talking happily, I feel that the world has lost its color again.

It was already past nine o'clock in the morning after breakfast, and we packed up our things, took a flashlight to shine a light on the stumps of the drifters all over the ground, and walked towards the city gate.

After a day of tossing, I spent all my time on destroying the drifters. According to Monk Budai, this underground river will most likely collapse in two days, in which case we will have less than a day left.

And the Seventh Master and the Budai Monk have no news yet, and they don't know where they went. Of course, with the skills of these two people, there should be no problem in saving their lives, and what I am worried about is whether these two people will have any selfish intentions......

A few minutes later, we came to the city gate again, and looking at the two dragon and phoenix pillars on both sides of the gate, I suddenly felt a sigh of emotion in my heart: a few hours ago, I thought I would never have the chance to come here again.

"Huh? You see? In the dark, Liang Ruoyi shone a flashlight at the city gate and whispered: "When I came out, the crack in this gate was not so big, and I deliberately closed it a little smaller, not enough for one person to pass, and now, it is enough for two people to pass." ”

"In other words, the Seventh Master or the Budai Monk may have already entered?" I frowned and asked softly. If this is really the case, the suspicion that the two of them are selfish will become bigger and bigger.

Could it be that the Seventh Master or the Budai Monk wants to take away the Chixiao Sword alone?

"It should be, let's go in." Liang Ruoyi said that he should step in first. I hurried with the pig's head.

The pig's buttocks were already wounded, and it was a bit funny to move, but now I have countless wounds on my entire back, and the slightest movement is unbearable, and I am even more limping when I walk.

After entering the city gate and standing on the Shinto of Qingbaishi again, I let out a sigh of relief: "It's good to be back again." ”

Turning my head to look, I found that the sculpture I broke yesterday was still there, but I couldn't hear the sound of water from the ground, I walked over and looked down, and asked Liang Ruoyi: "Beauty, when you were here yesterday, did you hear the sound of running water down here?" ”

Liang Ruoyi followed and shook his head: "No." You say this? There's another layer down there? ”

I nodded: "This sculpture was originally a palace maid, I was the first to come in yesterday, and it was fine when I came in, but I didn't dare to go forward alone, so I waited for you here." I was bored, so I came over to take a look, but I didn't expect it to break when I touched it inadvertently, and before it broke it, I found that it seemed to have pores on its body, and it was constantly seeping water into the takeaway. After it was shattered, I heard the sound of running water below, and I wondered if it had been hollowed out underneath, a burial chamber, or something else. ”

Liang Ruoyi glanced at me after listening to it, as if to say, "You won't even let go of the palace maid sculpture......"

The pig's head stepped over, took out a small stick from his backpack, and gently poked it on the base of the sculpture, and with a "bang", it easily poked a small hole the size of a fist, and then shone it down with a flashlight.

All three of us held our breath and looked down intently.

It's pitch black underneath, and it looks very deep. After a few seconds, we found traces at the bottom of the cave: there was indeed another layer underneath, about a foot or so from our depth, which looked vaguely like wet earth from the flashlight light, and there should have been water flowing through.

"I guess it's just an underground river, tidal in nature." The pig's head said: "Maybe it was used to transport things when this Yashan Sea Palace was built before. ”

Liang Ruoyi nodded slightly, and turned around to leave: "Let's go, let's go to the front to find the Seventh Master and the Cloth Bag Master." ”

The two of them turned and walked forward, and I took the flashlight and shone it down again, but something didn't feel right......
