"Thirteenth stele, here it means that you have left the core area of the vine forest cave."

Gu Xin propped himself on the stele with one hand and rested for a while. Although he didn't have a map, he could feel the location of Jade Cui, coupled with his extraordinary memory, so there were almost no forks in the road along the way, and the speed of returning was faster than the speed he had gone deeper into the cave before.

Gu Xin planned to wait until he arrived at the rest place of the big karst cave, so that Kong Ling would be calm and calm, and his mind would be clear, and the two of them would directly end this big test in the vine forest cave and get out of the cave in advance!

The feeling that the vine forest cave brought to Gu Xin now was very strange, Gu Xin felt in the dark that something might happen if he stayed any longer! Not to mention the mysterious humanoid black shadow that he saw in the depths of the emerald vines just now, the vital Sword Courtyard distress tokens of him and Kong Ling have all been shattered at present!

When was the distress token broken? Gu Xin didn't notice it at all!

"It's not that you crush the token yourself, can the Sword Academy receive a message for help? The token has been broken for so long, and there is no teacher in the Sword Academy to save it, so it is estimated that it will not be collected. "This means that he and Kong Ling have lost contact with the Sword Academy!

After resting for half a minute, Gu Xin continued to return with Kong Ling on his back.

When cornering and leaving the area where the stone monument is located.

His gaze lingered on the thirteenth stele for a moment, his eyes revealing a hint of doubt.

Just now, he passed by the thirteenth stone tablet with Kong Ling on his back, and the golden light stone in his hand shone out, and the stone tablet cast a shadow behind him. Gu Xin's eyes glanced at the shadow of the stone tablet, the outline seemed to be a little strange, as if it had a head and limbs, showing a human shape!

Shadows of human form? Is it the unevenness of the ground that creates the illusion of perspective?

I should have read it wrong.

Gu Xin looked at it for a few more seconds, the number "thirteen" carved on the stele had long been broken due to the wear and tear of the years, and the boxy appearance of the stele was exactly the same as in his memory when he came, and he did not find more abnormalities.

Shaking his head, Gu Xin left the No. 13 Stone Tablet area with Kong Ling.

After passing through a few more steep and winding roads.

Next to a pothole and sloping wall, suddenly, Gu Xin stopped.

“...... Number 13? A baker's dozen? ”

- Wait!

Gu Xinmeng discovered, hey, why does the No. 13 stone tablet seem to have been reversed? !

In his memory, when he and Kong Ling came, they saw the words "vine forest cave" written on the stone tablet for the first time. When you return and leave, you should only see the words "Tenglin Cave", how can you see the number "thirteen" carved on the back?

"There's a problem with the thirteenth stele! It's not going in the same direction as you saw it before! Gu Xin jumped faster, without the slightest hesitation, he immediately turned back with Kong Ling on his back, turned around and returned to the thirteenth stone stele!

Powerful Yuan Force filled his body, and Gu Xin's figure was like a gust of wind, turning the hidden stone block and returning to the place of the thirteenth stone stele.

The golden stone in his hand immediately shone towards the stele, only to see that at the moment when Gu Xin returned, the No. 13 stele standing in the center was slowly disappearing!

Gu Xin watched as the original No. 13 stele had turned into a vague translucent!

And the stele seemed to have noticed Gu Xin, who was returning again, and the picture that was disappearing was abrupt, in a translucent and opaque state, he froze for a few seconds, as if he was hesitating whether to disappear or not, and then completely disappeared in an instant!

"Gone?" Gu Xin felt his scalp tingle.

The thirteenth stone tablet of the Sword Courtyard has disappeared?!

No, Gu Xin reacted quickly, this thing, I'm afraid it's not the No. 13 stele...... It's something else, disguised as Tablet 13!

There is something wrong with this vine forest cave! There is a big problem!

Kong Ling said that there are no living creatures in the cave, only emerald green vines!

What is the situation then, what turned into a stone monument? Haunted?!

Or is this scene in front of me also an illusion, when has I been poisoned by the emerald ivy?!

Gu Xin looked at the place where the stele disappeared, and was about to take a closer look, but he was very hesitant, he was not sure if it was safe to observe in the past. He carefully leaned his back against the cave wall and glanced back at Kong Ling, who was still in a deep coma.

He is now carrying Kong Ling, and his movements are quite inconvenient.

"Let's get out of here first! When you return to the Great Cave, you will leave the cave directly! Tell the Sword Academy about this cave problem, and let the Sword Academy send someone to investigate! Gu Xin quickly tore the clothes on his body into long strips of cloth, and tied the unconscious Kong Ling tightly to his back, so as to free his hands.

The scene of the thirteenth stone tablet disappearing did not make Gu Xin feel scared, but it also made Gu Xin realize that there was really some unknown threat in the cave!

He is just a small Yuan Spirit Realm now, and running quickly is the best way!

Gu Xin's eyes scanned the surroundings, and his heart immediately sensed Yucui's location, and continued to return to the Great Cave.

Since leaving the Great Cave Resting Place and going inward, he and Kong Ling have not met any other Sword Academy disciples so far.

It stands to reason that the closer you get to the rest place of the Great Cave, the more likely you are to meet other Sword Academy disciples who have entered the cave to explore on the way back, and when the time comes, one more person will have more strength, and the situation of the two of them will be relatively safe! If they could go back to the Great Cave, which was full of resting Sword Academy disciples, the two of them would be safer!

The cave became darker and quieter, and Kong Ling's golden light stones were abandoned in the emerald green vines, leaving only a few in Gu Xin's hand, which were still glowing. The already dim environment was now even darker, more than six or seven meters away, and even the large outline of the stone wall could not be seen clearly.

Gu Xin walked silently and vigilantly, his chest faintly had a golden light, which was because Shou Fu was ready to smolder at any time. If there is any danger, this longevity talisman will burn immediately, temporarily increasing Gu Xin's strength.

About an hour passed.

Gu Xin passed through a narrow crack in the stone wall and came to a slightly spacious place.

He was about to pass by when he suddenly heard footsteps.

"Anyone?!" Gu Xin was shocked, he finally met the other disciples of the Sword Academy? Who will it be?

Speaking of which, there are so many disciples in the outer courtyard of the Mirror Lake Sword Academy, and many people know Gu Xin!

Footsteps came from behind the big rock in front.

Gu Xin had a smile on his face and walked closer quickly, "Hey! Is that a fellow student of the Sword Academy over there? Who are you? I'm Gu Xin! ”

The man didn't answer, Gu Xin smiled and walked around the big stone, looked over, and around the corner in front of him, a black figure flashed away.

Gu Xinli jumped hard, the longevity talisman on his chest burned instantly, and the surging Yuan Force wrapped him and Kong Ling like a barrier. Shadow?! Not the other disciples of the Sword Academy!

Gu Xin didn't hesitate at all, his whole body was full of Yuan Force, and he immediately turned around and fled in the direction of the Great Cave.

Again, this weird black shadow!

What the hell is it? This time it even has footsteps!

Is it something real, or is it an illusion of its own making?

Gu Xin lifted his spirits.

Every time a black shadow appeared, it was a flash of light, and I never saw it clearly. But Gu Xin really felt an intuitive danger from the dark shadow!

"This time there is a sound of footsteps in the black shadow, will it attack it?" Gu Xin's scalp was numb, and he didn't even dare to stop the slow burning of the longevity talisman.

To be honest, even now, Gu Xin can't be sure whether the black shadow is an illusion or a real one, he can only be vigilant at all times, and be wary of the possible sneak attack of the weird black shadow!

The Shou Fu burned in exchange for a stronger Yuan Force, and Gu Xin's speed close to the rest place of the Great Cave was obviously faster again.

He took Kong Ling and burned the longevity talisman for a quarter of an hour.

The sneak attack of the black shadow did not come.

The environment of the cave was still dead and silent, unchanged, and for a quarter of an hour, the two of them did not see the dark shadow again.

Gu Xin was slightly distressed and stopped the burning of the longevity talisman, and now only half of this longevity talisman was left. There is no doubt that this time he entered the vine forest cave, he has already lost a lot of money!

"It's coming, it's going to be the Great Cave soon."

Gu Xin took a deep breath and looked sideways at Kong Ling on his back.

Kong Ling, who was in a coma, frowned, and since the previous few minutes, he was muttering something in his mouth, and Gu Xin was preoccupied with the surroundings, and he didn't listen carefully.

At this time, he listened to it, as if he was calling his sister.

The original words were, "Kong Wenyin...... Kong Wenyin: Your ...... That cabinet at home ...... "something."

The name is Kong Wenyin, does Kong Ling really have a sister?

"Kong Ling!" Gu Xin reversed the order.

Kong Ling didn't react, and he couldn't wake up yet.

Gu Xin had no choice but to carry him on his back and continue to walk towards the big cave.

Gu Xin's gaze moved away from Kong Ling's face, and the afterglow of his eyes swept behind him, and a few meters behind him, in the corner of the corner, a black shadow flashed away.

But this time, maybe the black shadow's movements were a little slower, or maybe Gu Xin's timing was very accurate.

Gu Xin vaguely saw the clearer outline of the black shadow.

It was a strange humanoid thing three or four meters tall, like an enlarged shadow of a person.

Gu Xinhan's hair was upside down, and he immediately took Kong Ling and started to rush again!

Soon.

More than two hours later.

Gu Xin finally carried Kong Ling on his back and returned to the Great Cave from the depths of the underground cave.

The surrounding environment has suddenly become clearer, and the cave has become noticeably spacious, no longer so tortuous and narrow.

Gu Xin looked ahead, in the silent Great Cave, a large number of Sword Academy disciples or one or two people, each occupying one place, surrounded by golden stones, the brightness of the golden stones, as if a dim lamp lit up in the big cave.

Looking at this scene, Gu Xin was even a little happy for the rest of his life.

It's finally time to leave this strange vine forest cave!

In the last two hours, Gu Xin encountered seven or eight black shadows!

And...... After encountering black shadows many times, Gu Xin found that these black shadows did not seem to be the same! There seem to be a lot of black shadows! The black shadows I saw were not the same black shadows repeating, but different humanoid and strange black shadows!

The only thing that is the same is that these black shadows are extremely fast, disappearing in a flash, and I don't know why, they just appeared next to Gu Xin, and did not really attack him and Kong Ling, who was unconscious.

Originally, Gu Xin planned to let Kong Ling rest in the big karst cave and leave after waking up.

Now he just wants to take Kong Ling with him, leave the vine forest cave immediately, and then inform the various strange situations in the sword courtyard cave after he goes out.

Therefore, Gu Xin did not delay, and after entering the big karst cave, he went straight to the exit of the long stone road in the middle of the cave.

As a Yuan Spirit Realm, although he couldn't fly, it was still very easy to climb the stone wall, and there were still a lot of places to settle on the stone wall, Gu Xin only took a few minutes to take Kong Ling to the front of the stone road at the exit.

Gu Xin watched for a long time on the raised stone platform in the middle of the familiar karst cave.

I determined that in my memory, the location of the exit was on this stone platform, and it was not that I found it wrong.

However.

Although the stone wall next to the stone platform is pitted, it is indeed a whole.

On the stone wall, there is no crack in the long stone tunnel that can be left behind.

"Am I in the wrong place?" Gu Xin hesitated.

At this time, Kong Ling, who had been in a coma, finally opened his eyes in a daze.

"Gu Xin?"

"What are you doing?"

Gu Xin was overjoyed, and hurriedly pointed around, "Kong Ling, let's see, is this place the exit from the vine forest cave?" ”
