Ling Fengpiao, Lu Qingwen, Gao Feng and others were all young and vigorous, and they had long been impatient after being ambushed by the enemy's two traps, and they were eager to take revenge; Although Compass and Huang Yilan were more steady, they were enthusiastic and wanted to help me, so after I left, they quickly reached a consensus and went separately to help me find out the whereabouts of the Cangwu Daoist.

They think that they are just secretly inquiring, and there will not be much danger, how do they know the hidden dangers of these villages? It is likely that there are old witches in other villages, but there may not be another Huang Chaojie, if they are discovered, the consequences will be unimaginable!

Lu Qiang said that Lu Qingwen and Gao Feng were in a group, Ling Fengpiao and Ouyang Zhenfei were in a group, and Compass and Huang Yilan were in a group. Lin Mei and I can't disperse anymore, otherwise we will only be sent to death when we encounter the enemy, so I can only chase one of the groups, but who to find first?

Lu Chengshan and I have said first, Lu Qingwen and Gao Feng's safety is responsible for themselves, and now they act without authorization, and they can't blame me if something happens; Ling Fengpiao and Ouyang Zhenfei have strong self-protection ability, and the relationship is my junior brother and sister, so it is reasonable to help me; Compass and Huang Yilan have no martial arts, and they may die when they encounter a fierce beast, and they are just my friends, and they have no responsibility or obligation to help me, so it is reasonable that I should go to Compass and Huang Yilan first.

My name is Lu Qiang or wait in place, no matter who comes back, they will wait here, and they are not allowed to separate again, and then Lin Mei and I ran in the direction of Compass and Huang Yilan.

Jogging all the way, running for about an hour and a half, we finally saw a small village, we walked around the small village, and soon Xiaoxue found Compass and Huang Yilan hiding in the woods. Both of them are relatively cautious people, and they don't have any hand-to-hand combat skills, and a few villagers can knock them down, so they acted carefully, did not enter the village, only hid outside to observe, and so far nothing has been found.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and instead of scolding them, I told them to follow me immediately, telling them about the dangers I had experienced as I went. The speed of coming back was slow, it took a little more than two hours, and it was already five o'clock in the evening when they arrived near the Changsheng Temple, and the other two groups of people had not yet returned.

It was already getting dark, and if nothing happened, the other two groups should be back soon. Lin Mei and I have been running around all day, frightened and nervous, and we are already very tired, so we don't eat something to rest, and when the enemy doesn't move, we have to lie down first, so we can only rest first.

More than an hour later, Lu Qingwen and Gao Feng also returned, and they didn't gain anything. At this time, it was already dark, Ouyang Zhenfei and Ling Fengpiao still hadn't come back, we were all very anxious, either something happened to them, or they had found important clues, otherwise they should come back before dark.

The others are inconvenient to move without lighting, and using the lights will expose themselves, so Lin Mei and I will pick them up, and the others will stay in place. I have to be polite to Kompasu and Huang Yilan, but not to Lu Qingwen and Gao Feng, and sternly warn when I leave, if you don't listen to my arrangement again, I will ask Lu Chengshan to punish them when I go back.

Lin Mei and I are rushing all the way again, it's really rushing!

I desperately hoped that Ling Fengpiao and Ouyang Zhenfei would suddenly appear in front of me, but they never did, and after walking for about an hour, I suddenly noticed broken branches and overwhelmed weeds on the side of the road, as if someone had fought here. We were very nervous and searched nearby, Xiaoxue also came out to help find it, the traces of the fight were not very obvious, and the range was not very large, which proved that the battle ended quickly, and the difference in strength was quite large.

"This is Ouyang Zhenfei's peach wood arrow!" Xiaoxue screamed in the woods.

I hurried over there, and sure enough, I saw a peachwood arrow on the ground. Master once gave me a pair of willow bows and peach arrows, which I rarely used, and later gave them to Ouyang Zhenfei when I practiced in seclusion in Taihang Mountain. Now the arrows are here, indicating that the traces of the battle are left by them, and the willow bow and peach arrows are mainly used to deal with ghosts and evil spirits, which means that there are ghosts and ghosts among the enemies, and after a short battle, they were captured by the enemy.

Xiaoxue has the keen sense of smell and perception of beasts, and leads the way in front of her, and Lin Mei and I are closely behind. As I walked through the softer mud, I saw footprints that I could barely tell were left by three people. These footprints are all left by flat cloth shoes, but there are obvious differences, the footprints of people walking in the middle are shallow, and the front and back of the soles of the feet are almost deep, which are the footprints of normal people; The footsteps of people walking on both sides are very deep, and the heels are particularly deep, as if gravity falls on the heels when walking.

Xiaoxue said as she walked: "The footprints on both sides are left by zombies, and their joints are stiff when they walk, so the liliang on their heels is particularly big when they land, and they are holding Xiaofei and the little madman, so the whole footprints are also deep." ”

Corpse! I thought of the zombie in the black pine forest of Yunding Mountain, and then I thought of the living corpses that the four disciples of Cangwu had become, these things were really terrifying, not afraid of death, not afraid of pain, and not tired, even more awesome than I used the Mixed Yuan One Qi Talisman.

A person who can control zombies and serve fierce ghosts, even if he is not a Cangwu Dao person, is 100% a member of the Xuanming Sect!

Lin Mei said: "It must be them, they are good at refining zombies, it is said that the method of chasing corpses from Xiangxi corpse chasers is derived from this mysterious sect." ”

Xiaoxue said: "I have also heard that the zombies they refined five or six hundred years ago were very powerful, but it is difficult to say how many have been passed down until now. ”

I'm nervous, naturally formed zombies are already a headache, and the zombies refined by people in the evil way are definitely more terrifying. The enemy did not kill Ouyang Zhenfei and Ling Fengpiao, but captured me alive, I am afraid that he deliberately led me to death, but knowing this, how could I not save it?

The previous trail was on a ridge and we headed down the hill and through the woods to the valley. At the bottom of the valley there is a deep stream less than ten meters wide, which is not visible from a high distance due to the dense forest of ancient trees above. When I walked to the side of the mountain stream, I immediately felt a cold air rushing towards my face.

The mountain stream is narrow, but it is very deep, and the deepest point may be more than 20 meters, and there is an irregular stone staircase on the stone wall leading to the bottom. The stone steps are about a meter wide and have a lot of moss and weeds, and apparently very few people have walked through them in the last year or two.

Xiaoxue was in front, Lin Mei and I were behind, slowing down, slowing down and walking lightly, careful to prevent the enemy from attacking. After a while, we reached the bottom of the deep stream safely, and we could see that there were many places on the ground that had been trimmed, and many stone statues had been smashed and so damaged that it was difficult to make out what they looked like. Some broken runes and seal characters can be seen in the flat place of the stone wall, although it is difficult to read, but it still exudes a simple and mysterious atmosphere, which is obviously left hundreds of years ago or even thousands of years ago.

All the traces of destruction are not too long, the weathering is not obvious, it may have been destroyed in the last ten years, we are a little surprised, could it be that the Xuanming Sect has been completely destroyed?

It was the dry season, and there was no obvious flow of water in the deep stream, but it was very cold and damp, which made me feel very uncomfortable, but zombies, ghosts, and the like liked this kind of place.

Walking forward a short distance to the end of the mountain stream, a large amount of collapsed rubble piled up a hole, but now a small hole has been cleared, obviously Ling Fengpiao and Ouyang Zhenfei have been brought into this cave.

Lin Mei asked in a low voice, "Do you want to go back and call them over to help?" ”

I was a little hesitant, I didn't let Lu Qingwen and them come before, because they didn't use the lights and had difficulty moving, and if they used the lights, they might be discovered by the enemy. Now that we have found the enemy's lair, there is no need to keep our actions secret, Lu Qingwen and Gao Feng have strong combat effectiveness, Kompasu can suppress ghosts and the like, Huang Yilan can still "ban the law" if he goes berserk, and they will be of great help to me if they come. But the problem is that I'm afraid that if the time drags on for a long time, Ling Fengpiao and Ouyang Zhenfei's lives will be in danger.

"Go back and tell them, I'm here to watch." I took a compromise.

"Are you sure you won't go in first?" Lin Mei's bright eyes stared at me, and she had already seen through my intentions.

I could only smile bitterly: "I'll stealthily go in to find out the shape of the ground and the strength of the enemy, and try not to wait for you to come." Don't worry, I won't meet an old witch who can see through my stealth this time. ”

Lin Mei looked at me affectionately, took a few steps back, bit her lip, turned around and ran away. She seems to be weak and delicate, but she has a strong heart, is more decisive than many men, and never drags her feet in doing things.

I stood at the entrance of the cave, trying to calm down, knowing myself and my opponent in order to survive the battle, and I had to know as much as possible about the enemy's situation before I could do it. But the enemy seems to have found this place in a fog, and I still don't know anything about them, and I can't guess their current situation and purpose.

"Xiaoxue, if this is their lair, Weishenme will be ruined like this?" I asked Xiaoxue that when we have a problem, we need to communicate and ask each other, which often triggers a flash of inspiration for the other party or ourselves.

Xiaoxue said: "In my opinion, there are two situations, one is that the Xuanming Sect has long been destroyed, and some remnants are hiding outside, and after the rumors have passed, they sneak back and prepare to rebuild the Xuanming Sect; There is also a situation where the Xuanming Sect has abandoned this place, and for some reason is now preparing to activate it again. ”

"Then they should be able to think that I might be able to track it down to find their lair, and as a very mysterious sect, would I risk being discovered? So I don't think it's their lair, they just want to use the hostages to ambush me here. ”

Xiao Xue thought for a while: "People with martial arts and mana must have strong combat power to refine zombies, and this can be regarded as the best material for refining weapons, if the Xuanming Sect wants to make a comeback, what it needs most is to catch some cultivators to refine zombies." If they have enough strength, then they can deliberately lure us all over, and we will become fat sheep sent to the door......"

I broke out in a cold sweat, if the Cangwu Dao people had taken Ouyang Zhenfei and Ling Fengpiao as hostages, they wouldn't have killed them immediately; If the people of the Xuanming Sect captured the two of them and used them to make zombies, they would immediately start it, and I hesitated for a moment, I was afraid that what I saw was not a living person but a zombie!

I resolutely used the invisibility charm and walked towards the cave.
