Rong Yi nodded and commanded softly, "It's the time when the wind is down, and the rudder is moving forward."

"Helm—" shouted from the head of the water, and the tall masted white-sailed ship swept away at full speed to the sound of oars.

This mansion was actually built on a lonely island in Yunmengze, surrounded by water, and could not be approached without boats. The courtyard wall of one color of blue bricks to the height of the ground, the house is carved with bucket arches, and the eaves are warped, although it is not majestic, but it is very gorgeous. This house is covered by the steaming water vapor of Yunmengze all day long, if it is not for the high sun to disperse the water vapor, it is indeed difficult to find it if it is not close.

An old man greeted him on the shore, and Rong Yi was not polite, only ordered: "Go to the backyard."

The old man of the family was silent and led the way, Wu Kui came for the first time, so he could only follow behind the master, and the group quietly entered the backyard. The shape of the rear courtyard is slightly smaller, and two wings are built on the east and west, and between the wings there is a large round mound more than one person high. The large round mound stood alone to the north of the main house, like a huge tomb.

Wu Kui's heart tightened: "How can anyone build a tomb in his own home? What the hell is this?"

Taking advantage of the old words of the master, Wu Kui quietly approached and gently touched the left side wall of the round mound, only to feel the unevenness of the tentacles, and knew in his heart: "It turns out that this round mound is made of gravel." Looking closer, there were glutinous rice juices between the rubble, and Wu Kui couldn't help but wonder, "Master has taken such great pains to build this round mound, and has built it so strongly, what is the use of it?"

She circled the mound again, and saw a small door five or six feet high on the south side of the mound, and a brass lock hung from the door. Wu Kui shook it slightly, and the copper lock did not move at all.

"Don't move!" I only heard Rong Yi's low and majestic shout. Wu Kui was so frightened that he let go of his hand, and pleaded guiltily, "It's abrupt, but I don't know what it is here? What's the mystery, I hope the master will give me some advice!"

"That's fine." Rong Yi sighed softly and said, "I'm going to Danyang, this mansion still needs you to stay and take care of it, and the most important thing is the things in this round mound, you need to be careful and careful." Come with me!"

He took out a copper key from his sleeve and opened the copper lock, and the moment the door opened, a pungent stench hit, and Wu Kui covered his mouth and nose with nausea. The stench was like something rotting, and people wanted to vomit.

It was cold and damp inside, and it was pitch black, and the two of them each lit a torch and walked cautiously forward. On both sides are hard stone walls, and at the foot are stone steps that extend straight to the ground, as far as the eye can see, with no end in sight.

After walking for a while, the rancid smell became stronger, and Wu Kui only felt that he couldn't breathe well, and the feeling of evil in his chest gradually increased, and his heart became more and more suspicious: "This is not like the tomb of the mausoleum, but like a secret room. However, since it is a secret room, the entrance must be very hidden, how can a small door be opened on the south side of the stone mound, then what secret is there?"

Walking forward, the soles of my feet suddenly became soft, and when I shone it with a torch, there were white flowers on the stone steps, as if a thick layer of snow was covered. Wu Kui asked in a low voice, "Master, what is on the floor?"

Rong Yi said without raising his head, "It's lime."

"Lime? What do you do with lime?"

Rong Yi glanced at her, stopped and said, "Naturally, it's to depoison. Do you remember the rat plague in Hokyo?"

Hearing this, Wu Kui only felt a chill pass through his spine. The epidemic that almost killed half of the city, as long as it is mentioned, which one in the world of the Great Zhou is not afraid? She understood a little: "Perhaps someone in this secret house died of the plague, and the rest of the people built a stone tomb for fear of the plague epidemic, and sprinkled lime in the tombway......

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but be dumbfounded, knowing that she didn't make sense at all, if someone really died of the epidemic, how could lime be sprinkled in the dwelling of the dead before his death, how could it be sprinkled in the grave? Besides, this is not a tomb at all? Unless...... There's a living person hidden in there! As soon as I thought of this, I shuddered in my heart, only to feel that this mysterious stone room was full of weirdness, as if there was a pair of eyes staring at me all the time, a cool breeze came out of the back of my neck, and the hairs on my body stood up.

Probably seeing the fear in her heart, Rong Yi smiled: "Don't worry, it's not a person buried here, don't believe it."

Before they knew it, the two of them had reached the end of the stone steps, and saw a stone pile more than six feet high standing in front of them, the bottom of which was about a foot long, and the higher they went, the narrower it became, and the top was pressed by a stone about three feet wide. The mound is also covered with lime.

Seeing this strange pile of stones, Wu Kui couldn't help but sigh, "Master, what is this?"

Rong Yi didn't answer directly, but just moved the stone off the pile and motioned for Wu Kui to come forward and take a look. The middle of the pile was empty, the size of a large cage, and there was some minced flesh in it, all of which had rotted, and the stench was so great that ----- light was so dim that it was not easy to see the rest of the room, except for the middle line.

She stumbled around the pile of rocks again. The stones were stacked very strongly, and the gaps between the stones were so small that even the blades of the knives could not be inserted. There are more than a dozen one-finger-thick holes evenly distributed in the upper part, which seem to be used for ventilation.

Wu Kui exhaled softly and said, "Master, there seems to be something in here———— as for the minced meat, it should be either a horse's or a cow's, and I still vaguely saw a small leg bone just now, but the light is too weak to tell the difference-" She frowned slightly, and said to herself, "What likes to eat beef and horse meat?"

Suddenly there was a strange sound from the pile, as if a wild beast was not as rough as a tiger wolf, as if an ape was more terrible than their cry, and Wu Kui broke out in a cold sweat when he heard it.

"What is this? Is it a tiger?" Wu Kui asked Master.

"What is it, don't you understand everything when you look at it closely?" Rong Yi looked directly into the eyes of the female disciple and commanded with a little coercion.

"Yes, disciple obeys."

The mission is like a mountain, and Wu Kui has to come forward with a torch no matter how scared he is, holding a torch and looking into the cave. The situation is the same as Fang Cai, except for a dark shadow. Perhaps because of the stimulation of the firelight, the thing seemed to lift up, and only a pair of faintly shining green eyes were seen in the darkness—

"Ahh She grew up in the grassland, and has seen a lot of wolves since she was a child, and the thing in the cave has unkempt hair on its head, black hair all over its body, especially the pair of faint and shiny green eyes, greedy and ruthless, not a wolf?

"Not a wolf." Rong Yi's calm voice calmed Wu Kui, and she stroked her chest and asked, "Master, it's not a wolf, it's a dog?" Where in the world is there a dog that big?"

Rong Yi smiled faintly, took out a copper cup from his sleeve, unscrewed the lid, and suddenly a fishy smell permeated everywhere.

"Master, what are you doing with mutton fat?" Wu Kui covered his nose and asked, although mutton is the main meat of the grassland people and the nobles of the Central Plains, but the animal fat of mutton fat is extremely fishy, and not many people use it as lamp oil.

Rong Yi smiled slightly, shook the copper cup towards the entrance of the cave, beckoned, and motioned for Wu Kui to come forward and take a look. Wu Kui stretched out his head and happened to take a look at the thing, and he was frightened: "What a human! It's a human face—"

Rong Yi threw his hand, only to hear the sound of "dang chang", which was the sound of the copper cup rolling down on the hard ground. Then there was a heavy wheezing sound, and Wu Kui looked into the cave with the courage to see that the thing that looked like a human, a dog, and a wolf was sticking out its tongue and greedily licking the mutton fat on the bottom of the copper cup, looking very terrifying.

"It's its favorite food, and if you want to trap it soon, you can use it." Rong Yi's voice sounded very cold: "The trip for the teacher can't be delayed, you stay in the secret house to guard this thing, and when I fly to the letter to pass the book, you will take out this thing and bring it to Danyang to listen to it."

"This—" Rao is Wu Kui has traveled from south to north to see a lot of knowledge, and he has never seen such a terrible thing, and when he heard that he had to guard such a monster alone, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and he dared to ask, "Master, what is this?" What does it do?"

Rong Yi turned around, and two cold lights shot directly in his eyes: "This is the Gu King!"

"Gu King!" Wu Kui was shocked.

"That's right, the rat Gu is the name of the lynx, and it has already shown its power in Hojing, and the people of half the city have died, and this root is in this werewolf. It was hit by Gu itself, but it didn't get sick, but it was bitten by it

Things, no one is spared, they will all be Gu. Back then, on the Lynx Grassland, Ao Xing also wasted his old nose strength to catch this thing, and brought it into the customs in order to set up a rat Gu without fail. But this thing is too violent and too difficult to control, and the right prime minister Jin Wu feels that it is cumbersome, so he temporarily entrusts it to our Nanlin Society to take care of it. I don't want to be defeated and run away in embarrassment, and it's too late to get this werewolf back. So, I built this secret mansion in Yunmengze to take care of this thing."

"But, Master......" Wu Kui was terrified when he heard this: "Is Master ...... this time?" Do you want to use this werewolf scattering Gu against the Chu State?"

Rong Yi's eyes were cold: "If that Xiong Qu knows each other and is willing to spit out the Copper Green Mountain, this matter can be stopped. If he doesn't know each other, then Hugh blames me for not being merciful, huh!"

The last word "hum" sounded like a death knell from hell in the dark stone room, and a chill crawled on Wu Kui's back. She quickly diverted the topic and arched her hand, "Dare to ask Master, this Gu King is so dangerous, if Master wants to get it, how should the apprentice take it out of this stone cave?"

The size of this stone cave is only enough for this monster to stick out its head, I think it is afraid that this monster will climb out. But if so, how can this monster be taken out at that time?
