The woman in purple said coldly: "Sima Nan, the name of the ancestor is also called by a traitor like you, who has lost his conscience!

Sima Nan said loudly: "The reason for this is insignificant to outsiders, I don't care who you are, and no matter who is behind you to support you, you have the sword of Qing Yingzi, you must have a lot of knowledge with him, looking at the Qing Mingzi for the sake of the founding patriarch, I will let you go today, see you in the future, I will not be merciful!"

Seeing this, Ye Boyu grabbed the woman in purple, and the two walked quickly into the entrance of the secret passage, and just a few steps later, they heard a loud rumble behind them, Ye Boyu looked back and saw that the ancestral hall had completely collapsed, and the entrance of the secret passage cave was completely sealed.

The entrance of the cave was dark for a while, Ye Boyu was about to use his divine thoughts to explore the way, when suddenly his feet sank, and the two of them fell at the same time. The woman in purple said urgently: "Ye Boyu, you are about to get behind the boat, use all your strength to row, and we may be able to catch up with Sima Nan." Ye Boyu saw clearly that the two of them had landed on a small flat boat, and hurriedly put Wang Baiqin down, picked up the oars after going to the boat, and carried up the power, and the flat boat rushed forward as if it were flying.

From the hole in the overhead, there were occasionally a few rays of light spilling down, and I could vaguely see that the secret passage under my feet was a reed swing with no end in sight, and the sides were covered with thousands of years of lava, and at first there was only one waterway, and on both sides were dense aquatic plants and reeds, and after a while, the water surface became more and more open, and the water was sparkling, I don't know how wide. Ye Boyu only cared about urging the boat with all his might, and the woman in purple was at the helm at the bow.

This is the weirdest but sweetest moment Ye Boyu has ever seen in his life, he has a thousand words in his heart, but he can't say a word, he only feels peace and joy in his heart, and even faintly hopes that this river is best boundless and never ends.

After half a cup of tea, the woman in purple who suddenly heard asked softly, "Ye Boyu, you are not injured, are you?"

"No, no. Ye Boyu hurriedly said: "Girl, you weren't hurt by that wind-bearded old man in the Blood Clothes Hall, right?" Ye Boyu then remembered that the woman in purple had a big battle with Sima Nan just now, and almost exhausted the true yuan, so he hurriedly threw out the last few jade cards in his hand, and performed a small trick of dehydrating water and rain, attracting the aura of the water flow under his feet to the two of them, slowly trickling down, replenishing the physical strength of the two of them.

"Nope. The woman in purple said faintly, "No, he won't hurt me." I didn't think you had so many Dao techniques at your disposal. ”

Ye Boyu snorted, feeling strange in his heart, but he also knew the temper of the woman in purple, and he didn't tell himself if he asked what he shouldn't ask, and he didn't need to ask what he should say, and he didn't speak again.

Sure enough, the woman in purple who listened whispered again, "How did you come to this bloody hall?"

While rowing, Ye Boyu inadvertently bought a worn-out yellow manuscript book, in order to crack the Chinese characters of the book to find the third uncle, after seeing the third uncle's message, he discussed with Wang Baiqin and the two to come to Xiangxi to find the third uncle, and later how he was led to the Blood Clothes Hall by Sima Nan, and the ins and outs of the matter.

After listening quietly, the woman in purple turned around and saw that Ye Boyu was using her internal force with all her strength, speaking with full energy, without the slightest appearance of internal rest, she sighed slightly and said: "Ye Boyu, although you are involved in this big right and wrong, but you are also a blessing in disguise, your current skill is far above Sima Nan, but you don't know how to use it." Without waiting for Ye Boyu to speak, he shook his head again and continued: "Although this is providential, half of it is also caused by manpower, and this is a big conspiracy that has been planned for a long time. ”

"The big conspiracy?" Ye Boyu hurriedly asked: "I am thousands of miles away from the Bloody Cloak Hall, and I have no grievances or hatreds, how can the great conspiracy of the Bloody Cloak Hall involve me?"

The purple-clothed woman's clear eyes stared at Ye Boyu for a while before she said, "I'm just a small chess piece, and I don't know much more than you." At present, in this big conspiracy, we only know that Sima Nan and Feng Yiyun are making trouble, but how many rights and wrongs are still entangled in it, it is not for you and me to know. ”

Ye Boyu was slightly disappointed, but he had nothing to say, just nodded silently.

As he spoke, the dense aquatic plants separated from all directions, and a huge fork appeared in front of the boat, and the woman in purple asked Ye Boyu to stop the boat for the time being, looked around, and said: "Sima Nan came to this underground waterway for the first time, he definitely doesn't know the correct exit, there are thousands of forks here, and we can't find him at all." This waterway is the founding patriarch Qing Mingzi according to the innate gossip layout, there will be more and more forks in the road in front, and each branch intersection will have a different organ seal, people who do not know this formation, mistakenly enter the waterway, will definitely get lost in this boundless water grass, let his skills go through the spirit, but can only die of exhaustion. We can only wait for him at the exit now, if we can't wait, then it will be cheaper for Sima Nan, a thief. ”

Ye Boyu turned into a separate road according to his words, only to see that this separation was only more than a zhang wide, barely allowing the boat to pass, the iris and reeds on both sides gently scraped on the body, the woman in purple sat on the bow with her back to Ye Boyu, the mist in the water rose, faintly seemed to be covered in a light smoke, and after a while, groups of fireflies continued to fly out of the aquatic grass, flashing and flashing like stars in the sky. The woman in purple stretched out her hand, and countless fireflies landed on her palm, which was as white as jade, and the sparkling blue light reflected on her pretty face, which was indescribably delicate and bright. Seeing such beautiful scenery, Ye Boyu couldn't help but be intoxicated, drunk as if he had entered a fairyland.

The boat turned seventeen or eighteen bends in succession, went down a turbulent waterfall torrent, and finally docked on a small platform, the platform has dozens of zhang square circles, all around are craggy strange stones, in the middle is an octagonal ancient pavilion, the ancient pavilion is all stone, up and down and the ground are integrated, as if growing out of the ground, a stone table is placed in the ancient pavilion, only two stone benches are placed next to the stone table, the table and bench depict the dragon and the phoenix, the workmanship is very exquisite, but there is nothing special about it. However, the stone couplet on the pillar outside the pavilion attracted Ye Boyu's attention, Ye Boyu stepped forward and said softly: "There are thousands of words in the snap of the fingers, and there is no word in the smile." I saw the words on the couplet, the iron hook and silver stroke, the dragon flying and the phoenix, as if in one go. Ye Boyu thought to himself: "This wind beard is obviously a Taoist person, how can he write the couplet in a completely Buddhist tone, could it be that this couplet is written by someone else?"

Just as she was sighing, the woman in purple said softly on the side: "This is what the patriarch wrote with his fingers, and I was by my side at that time." ”

Ye Boyu was taken aback, only to see that this stone pillar seemed to be made of the hardest basalt, the couplets on the top were stroked one by one, the vigor was extremely strong, and there were three points into the stone. Ye Boyu wrote lightly along the strokes on the stone pillar, while imagining the success of the person who wrote this couplet at that time, the beauty was on the side, the spirit was high, and the stone chips flew down, and he couldn't help but be fascinated.

One side of the ancient pavilion is the big waterfall that just rushed down, now looking up from below, I feel that this waterfall is more than ten meters high, the silver satin-like water flows down, crashes on the rocky beach below, makes a deafening sound, very amazing.

The waterfall is surrounded by lush greenery and all kinds of unknown wild grasses and wild flowers, especially the unknown blue flowers can be seen everywhere here, and the platform is full of the fragrance of this blue flower. For a while, the two of them didn't know where they were.

The woman in purple rested for a while, her physical strength had recovered most of it, and seeing that Ye Boyu was still looking at the couplet outside the pavilion, she smiled lightly, shook her head and said, "Ye Shaoxia, offended along the way, please forgive me for being rude." ”

Ye Boyu woke up from the fugue at this time, waved his hand again and again, and said: "Girl, don't be polite, you saved my life first, where can you talk about the word offense." ”

The woman in purple looked embarrassed when she saw Ye Boyu, couldn't help but sneer, and said, "Okay, you said you don't have to be polite, when the time comes, I will be unkind to you, don't blame me." ”

Ye Boyu was born in a scholarly family, and his conceited life is also favored by many women, among which there are many young and beautiful women who pursue it, it can be said that he has seen a lot of big scenes, but for some reason, in front of this woman in purple, he is nervous for no reason, looking at the woman in purple with a smile, he is like a newly unearthed cultural relic, and he can't even say a decent sentence.

The woman in purple looked at the waterfall in front of her, frowned slightly, and said softly: "The big waterfall in front is the exit of the secret passage, the seven-star array that leads directly to the front mountain, you and I will go out from here, and we will soon be able to reach the front mountain, and we can leave the Blood Cloak Hall when we get there." ”

Ye Boyu nodded, took a step forward, and said, "Girl, can you tell me your name, I'm good, and I'm good ......?"

The woman in purple smiled again and said in a low voice: "There are too many things I have experienced along the way, but I forgot, I told you the name, don't forget, my name is Ziyan." ”

"Zi Yan, Zi Yan. Ye Boyu silently read a few words in his heart, his heart was hot, and he was about to speak, when Zi Yan, who was listening, said again: "Ye Shaoxia." As soon as he said a word, he smiled again: "It's awkward to call you Ye Shaoxia and Ye Boyu, let's call you Brother Ye in the future, okay?" After speaking, without waiting for Ye Boyu to agree, he continued: "Brother Ye, you have been staring at this couplet and pondering, but is there anything wrong?"

Ye Boyu nodded and said: "This couplet is really strange, the clear meaning on the couplet is to understand the Buddha and Zen, but when you think about it carefully, it seems that you are a little too persistent and can't help but feel a little into the devil's way." The strangest thing is that this couplet has nothing to do with the Tao and Wu factions, and I wonder what it means if it was written by the Patriarch of the Qing Yingzi?"
