The woman who came out and Yu Ji were simply carved out of the same mold.

Same.

But didn't Yu Ji follow the overlord and go to an inexplicable place?

How did it end up here?

What the fuck is this?

Ma Xiaoling covered my mouth all of a sudden, signaling me not to make any noise, so as not to startle the snake.

I nodded, staring intently at the bronze mirror.

Yu Ji stepped on the mud of the swamp with her bare feet, and she was as light as nothing, not sinking, and her feet were spotless, and she slowly walked to the center of the swamp, where the monster with the human head and the snake body hid.

She circled the swamp several times, looking here and there with her head down, as if she were picking something.

Suddenly, she stopped, reached into the mud, pulled out three snake tails, and then the upper bodies of the three monsters were also brought out.

Suddenly, I noticed that there was something strange about these three monsters with snake heads, as if their bellies were much larger, and they looked like they were pregnant.

Yu Ji took the three monsters to a smooth boulder not far from the entrance of the cave, arranged them in turn, and took out another talisman seal from somewhere in her clothes, and folded it into a small sword several inches long by her three times, and then she used the small sword to pick the monster's clothes open, and then slashed towards the bulging belly.

I saw the monster shake and let out a hysterical scream, and then it stopped moving, and it looked like it was dead.

Then bubbles bubbled up in the middle of the swamp, apparently the monsters were aware of it.

I can't bear it, although I don't like these monsters very much, but I still feel very uncomfortable to see them being treated like this, anyway, they are all descendants of Nuwa, and Nuwa is the benefactor of mankind.

Yu Ji put her hand into her dissected belly, fumbled for a while, and then pulled out an egg the size of a football, but the egg looked like a raw egg that had been skinned.

Within seconds of the egg leaving its body, the monster's body was like a deflated balloon, shriveled to only a single skin.

In this way, she cut open all the stomachs of the three monsters, took out three eggs, and left three skins.

She wrapped three eggs in her clothes, entered the hole, and the hole was closed.

I looked at Ma Xiaoling in shock and said, "Didn't Yu Ji disappear with the overlord?" How did it end up here? ”

Ma Xiaoling immediately denied: "This is not Yu Ji, if I am not mistaken, she should be a root of the peach tree stained with the essence and blood of Yu Ji's body." ”

I exclaimed, "Peach tree? Is there really a peach that can make people live longer? ”

This suddenly aroused my greed, I myself love peaches, especially peaches.

Ma Xiaoling sneered: "Longevity and longevity? Hmph, after eating that thing, you will only become a monster that is not a human or a ghost, and it will take a long time to live, but it is no longer you, which means that your consciousness will be replaced by another consciousness, remember the generals? He was born from a trace of his soul attached to the branch of the peach tree. ”

I was disappointed: "So this peach tree is not only not a good thing, but an evil thing and a demon tree?" ”

Ma Xiaoling said: "You can't think of it in a partial way, everything has its two sides, good and bad, the peach tree also has a magical effect, that is, his trunk is made into a coffin, after a person dies, lying in it is immortal, and after a few years, he can come back from the dead, there is such an example in history, King Zhou Mu." Legend has it that he took the Eight Horses Treasure Car to meet the Queen Mother of the West, and was warmly welcomed and hospitalized by the Queen Mother of the West. After King Zhou Mu left, because of the beautiful scenery of the Queen Mother of Zhou Xi and Yaochi, he finally died of depression, after his death, the Queen Mother of the West sent someone to send a coffin made of peach trees, in order to bury the body of King Zhou Mu, and many years later, at that time the Zhou Dynasty had already perished, entered the Warring States Period, there was a group of tomb robbers who inadvertently found the tomb of King Zhou Mu, dug a hole to touch the treasure, and after opening the coffin, they found that King Zhou Mu was like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, lifelike, rich as jade, handsome and abnormal, they were immediately scared out, but not long after they climbed out of the robbery hole, the tomb burst open, and a young man came out of it, it was King Zhou Mu in the coffin, they were all stunned, but King Zhou Mu did not do anything to them, but sang a song: white clouds in the sky, Yunling from the sky ... Later, some of the tomb robbers recorded the lyrics sung by King Zhou Mu, and after going back, they rummaged through the historical materials, and found that the song sung by King Zhou Mu turned out to be the "Ballad of White Clouds" written by the Queen Mother of the West for him, and then they knew that it was really King Zhou Mu who came back from the dead, they thought that there was an elixir of immortality in it, so they entered the tomb again, and found that the coffin inside actually sprouted and flowered, and also produced peaches, several people thought that this was the legendary peach that could live forever, so they rushed to pick it off and eat, In the end, they all turned into monsters that were neither human nor ghost, and were later destroyed by an ancestor of our Ma family..."

After listening to Ma Xiaoling's narration, I was silent for a long time, I did not judge the truth of the story, but in my heart I always preferred that this thing was true, because the things I have been exposed to these days have gradually changed the concept formed by the knowledge I have received for more than 20 years.

I asked Ma Xiaoling what to do now?

Ma Xiaoling shook her head, meaning that she didn't know what to do.

Obviously, the suddenness of this impostor Yu Ji greatly surprised her.

I knew that if I put all my hopes on her at this time, it would not work if I let her call the shots.

I had to use my brain to think about things and find a way out, so I thought about it for nearly half an hour, and a bold idea suddenly appeared in my mind, and then I calculated the idea back and forth, and found that there was no big flaw, so I told Ma Xiaoling.

I said: "Do you see if there is such a possibility, after the people of the Huangfu family killed the women in the Fengying Village, that is, the descendants of Nuwa, they all put them in coffins, and then transported them here, and the bloodline seal of these descendants of Nuwa was lifted, one may be because of this swamp, and the other may be caused by the magic used by the Huangfu family, no matter what it is, put this aside first... The people of the Huangfu family fed all the people who carried the coffins to these Nuwa's descendants, in order to make them form those eggs in their stomachs that were taken away by the fake Yu Ji? ”

Ma Xiaoling didn't refute, obviously agreeing with my idea, and said, "You go on." ”

I continued: "It's likely that they and Yu Ji are old acquaintances, or maybe not, and it's like a deal, exchanging those eggs for a ticket to enter the Jade Corpse Tomb, as for what Yu Ji is doing with those eggs?" We'll have to wait until we're in the cave to find out. ”

Ma Xiaoling thought for a while and said, "Your conjecture is good, but if this is the case, it will be even more troublesome." ”

I wondered, "Why?" ”

Ma Xiaoling said: "The head of the Huangfu family and his three sons just now have extremely high cultivation, and the worst estimate is also the king level, and they still need to trade before they can enter the Jade Corpse Tomb, let alone us?" ”

After saying that, she looked me up and down, and the look in her eyes seemed to have taken me as a person with no weight.

Although I was a little unconvinced, I was also self-aware, knowing how many pounds and taels I had, so I said, "What kind of cultivation are you?" ”

I've known Ma Xiaoling for a few days, but I still don't know what kind of cultivation she is.

Ma Xiaoling sighed and said, "My cultivation can barely be called a middle-level grandmaster, and there is still a long way to go from the king... The reason why I asked you to be cautious just now is that I am afraid of alarming the four old guys of the Huangfu family, they can crush you and me in the blink of an eye, and I don't dare to use any spells, because as long as there is a little energy fluctuation of the spell, they can sense it. ”

My heart sank, I felt that it was indeed a little difficult, and after thinking about it for a while, I realized that my stomach was screaming uncontrollably.

Fortunately, Ma Xiaoling brought her backpack over, and there was bread, beef jerky and mineral water in it.

Ma Xiaoling eats very little, and it seems that it is difficult to swallow.

I don't care about 3721, I eat happily.

Damn, even if you die, you have to be a full ghost, not to mention that you don't want to eat at night, you can't even make a sound when you fart, when will you wait if you don't fill your stomach now?

After I had my fill, I took a comfortable nap.

Until Ma Xiaoling woke me up again.

It's dusk and the sun is setting, so it won't be long before it's completely dark.

I rubbed my eyes and said, "What's the situation?" ”

She made a silent gesture and said, "Someone's coming." ”

I looked at the bronze mirror in her hand, and saw that a group of people, twenty or thirty, all of them strong men, had come to the swamp under the guidance of two young men.

I frowned to myself.

What's to be done? Could it be that these people are still used by the emperor's family to feed those monsters?

Ma Xiaoling suddenly pointed at the two men and said: "These two are also from the Huangfu family, yesterday was the swamp where they took those few coffin-carrying people into the swamp, they took the opportunity to run away, this time I think it is a repeat of the old trick, and it is estimated that these twenty or thirty people will be all eaten up in the near future." ”

I exclaimed, "Damn, so many people? It's so cruel, should we find a way to save them? ”

After all, I don't have any cultivation at all, and since those two men are from a warlock family, it is estimated that they should also have a certain amount of cultivation, and I will definitely not be able to kill them, so I can only rely on Ma Xiaoling.

Unexpectedly, she shook her head and said, "You can't save them..."

As she spoke, she switched the screen, and the four of them were walking up from the foot of a mountain, which happened to be the hill they once stood.

Ma Xiaoling is right, we really can't save them, if we go out now, I'm afraid our lives will not be saved.

I turned my face away, I couldn't bear to look at the bronze mirror anymore, and it wasn't long before my ears were filled with all kinds of miserable cries, and my scalp tingled to hear them, and I blocked my ears, but the sounds still came through my fingers.

Gradually, the voice died down, and I knew that eighty percent of the innocent people had been eaten.

Ma Xiaoling touched me and whispered, "It's over." ”

I sighed, looked at the bronze mirror, and found that the monsters with human heads and snake bodies were all open-chested and naked, and they all had big bellies.

scolded in my heart: Damn, I don't even wear clothes, I'm really not ashamed.

Suddenly, the hole at the foot of the hill at the end of the swamp was opened again.

The fake Yu Ji came out, no, not one, but a group of fake Yu Ji, and they all looked and dressed exactly the same.

I was so shocked that my mouth opened wide all of a sudden, how many peach tree roots do you need to conjure up so many Yu Ji?

When the monsters with human heads and snake bodies saw the fake Yu Ji, they first screamed, and then began to flee in all directions.

The imposters didn't chase after them.

At this moment, the four of Huangfu, father and son came together, floated down from the mountain, landed above the swamp, and began to cast spells, and those monsters with human heads and snake bodies suddenly seemed to be immobilized, and they were all frozen.

Immediately afterwards, the round bellies of those monsters were all torn apart by an invisible force, and the scene was terrible, and the heart-rending cries were endless.

One by one, the eggs involuntarily flew into the hands of the impostors.

The monsters had turned into shriveled skins and collapsed in the swamp.

The impostors reached out to take the eggs with expressionless faces, turned around and entered the cave, and the four Huangfu father and son also fell down and followed them into the hole.

Strangely, however, the entrance to the cave did not close with it, as if it had been reserved for us.

Ma Xiaoling put away the bronze mirror, patted me and said, "Let's go, let's go in too." ”

I opened my eyes wide and said, "Are you crazy? ”

At this point, I really think that she is either in the water in her brain, or the water is floating in the brain.

Ma Xiaoling blinked and said, "Do you remember what I told you?" ”

I said in a deep voice, "What you said to me, not a thousand, but eight hundred, which sentence are you referring to?" ”

"You're not that easy to die."

Just as I was thinking about whether or when she had said it, she had already taken my hand.

I felt like my body was being pulled by a tremendous force and flew straight to the hole at the end of the swamp.
