Chapter Eighty-Nine: The House in the Cave

Looking at the three holes, Zhou Tao was also confused, this structure and the five elements gossip he knew, as well as Qimen Dunjia, were not the same.

Seeing that Zhou Tao was silent, Tang Can asked a little shyly: "Doesn't the shopkeeper know how to leave?" ”

Zhou Tao didn't speak, just nodded.

Tang Can's mouth was open, and he said with an exaggerated expression: "There are still things in this world that the shopkeeper doesn't know?" ”

Zhou Tao knew that Tang Can's kid was joking about him, but he still couldn't help but give him a big look.

Tang Ming pulled Tang Can from behind and said: "The young shopkeeper is not an omniscient god, there will definitely be times when you don't know, so don't make a mess there, let the young shopkeeper think about how to go." ”

Zhou Tao walked to the cave, carefully looked at the three holes that looked exactly the same on the surface, and looked at them for a while, but he didn't see any clues.

Zhou Tao sensed his breath again, but he still didn't find anything.

Turning his head and looking at the other people, Zhou Tao asked, "Did you find anything?" ”

The rest shook their heads.

Zhou Tao sighed in his heart, it seems that he can only use the most primitive method.

"Since everyone doesn't have a good way, let's try hole by hole, you say, which hole do we go now?"

Tang Can pointed to the hole on the far right and said, "Then let's go to the right, I've been jumping my right eye recently, and I may have something to do with the right." ”

"Okay, then let's go to the left first." After speaking, Zhou Tao walked towards the hole on the far left.

"Oh, no, didn't you go to the right?" Tang Can caught up behind and asked.

Zhou Tao turned his head to look at him, and said flatly: "Haven't you heard of the right eye jumping disaster?" It's definitely not good to listen to you go to the right. ”

Tang Can still wanted to refute, but he didn't know where to start, so in the end he could only silently follow Zhou Tao and walk towards the hole on the far left.

Entering the cave, a yin wind blew, and Zhou Tao felt a cold body.

Tang Ming said with a solemn face: "There is so heavy yin qi here. ”

"Well, everybody be careful."

"Young shopkeeper, did you hear any strange noises?" A Mingtang disciple next to him suddenly asked.

"Voice?"

Hearing the disciple say that there was a strange sound, everyone stopped and listened.

Suddenly, Zhou Tao's face changed, and he shouted loudly: "Everyone, get out of the way." ”

As soon as Zhou Tao's words fell, everyone also heard the sound of "Xiu Xiu".

I saw that where the flashlight shone, countless iron needles glowing with a faint blue light flew densely.

Zhou Tao hurriedly transported the chaotic qi protective body, and at the same time pulled out the broken knife to resist, but there were still two needles that were not blocked by the broken knife, Zhou Tao turned around to dodge, but he was still cut by a needle on his arm.

"Everyone be careful, there is something wrong with this needle, you can break through the aura shield." Zhou Tao drank.

Tang Can also recognized these needles at this moment, and said loudly: "These are spirit breaking needles, which can penetrate the spiritual energy protection, everyone try to avoid the vital points." ”

After three breaths, the flying needle stopped, and Zhou Tao and the others also got a temporary respite.

"Young shopkeeper, are you okay? Tang Ming walked over holding his shoulders.

"It's okay, it's just a shot in the arm."

Zhou Tao saw that Tang Ming had been covering his shoulders, frowned and asked, "Are you injured??" ”

Tang Ming smiled and said, "I'm fine, I was also shot, fortunately, these needles are not poisonous." ”

Seeing that Tang Ming was fine, Zhou Tao asked loudly to the others, "How is everyone?" Are there any injuries? ”

Everyone reported their injuries in a gossiping manner.

Among them, the best state is Tang Can, I don't know what kind of stunt this kid has, in such a dense needle rain, he didn't hit a single needle, the worst is a disciple of Mingtang, who was hit by five needles, but they were all avoided by him, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune, and everyone else basically hit three or four needles.

"Let's all recover."

Zhou Tao sat cross-legged on the ground and began to breathe, and luck forced the needle on his arm out.

After a while, the needles in everyone's bodies were forced out.

"Everyone's alright, right?" Zhou Tao stood up and shone a flashlight into the depths of the cave, but he still couldn't see anything.

"It's okay." Everyone replied.

"Since it's all right, let's move on." After Zhou Tao pulled Tang Ming up, he continued to walk into the depths.

After walking for a while, the Mingtang disciple who had the most needles suddenly spoke, with a little panic in his voice: "Young shopkeeper, there seems to be something wrong with my body, and the aura in my body is losing rapidly. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Tao stopped moving forward, turned around and walked to the Mingtang disciple who spoke, and asked with a somewhat serious expression, "What's the matter?" ”

The Mingtang disciple pointed to the five needles on his body: "My spiritual energy is lost from these needles, at first, I didn't feel anything, I thought it was injured, so the spiritual energy flowed to these places to repair, but now the speed of spiritual energy loss has accelerated a lot, and it has been dispersed from these needles." ”

Hearing him say this, everyone felt their own state, and found that their aura was also constantly draining from the eye of the needle.

It's just that because there are few needle eyes, I don't care too much.

Zhou Tao also sensed the loss of chaotic qi in his body, and hurriedly retracted all the chaotic qi back into the inner scene, which avoided the continued loss of chaotic qi.

Zhou Tao stretched out his hand and probed the arm of the Mingtang disciple, and sensed that his body now seemed to have become a sieve, and the spiritual energy in his body was constantly lost and dispersed outside the body, at this rate, it would not take a moment or three for the spiritual energy in this disciple's body to dissipate and become an ordinary person.

Tang Ming also sensed his own situation, and said with a solemn expression: "These needles are spiritual acupuncture, once the needle is hit, it is difficult for the wound to heal, and all the spiritual energy in the body will be drawn out of the body and dispersed." ”

"Spiritual Needle?" Zhou Tao frowned, "What did the person who designed this mechanism want to do, why did he use a spirit induction needle instead of directly poisoning the needle?" ”

After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Tao didn't understand what the reason for the designer did this, so he simply didn't want to, and there would naturally be an answer later.

Coming back to his senses, Zhou Tao said to everyone: "The person who is in the needle, with the aura in your body, it can't last too long, now you take the three people who are unconscious to exit the cave first." “

"No, we won't go, we will continue to fight with the young shopkeeper in the dragon's lair." The disciples in the needle said in unison.

Zhou Tao showed a look of relief, and patiently explained: "You see that the aura in your body will soon be dissipated, and you will be ordinary people at that time, and you will have to carry the unconscious three people on your back, and you will not be able to help in battle, and you may put yourself and your companions on your back in danger."

Now that you are leaving, taking care of the three of them will be the greatest help to me. “

The disciples looked at each other, and they all said with a lonely expression: "Then we will retreat first, and on the way back, you should be more careful with the shopkeeper, we will wait for you at the entrance of the cave." ”

Zhou Tao nodded: "Don't worry, I will definitely come out with the antidote, and you should be more careful." ”

Those Mingtang disciples turned and left.

Zhou Tao looked at Tang Ming: "Didn't you also get a needle?" and depart with them. ”

Tang Ming said with a firm expression: "I want to protect the young shopkeeper to get the antidote, the young shopkeeper can rest assured, I have only been hit by two injections, with the aura in my body, it will take more than half a day to disperse, and we should have already come out of the dragon's lair by then." ”

Looking at Tang Ming's resolute expression, Zhou Tao knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he could only agree: "Okay, then let's go together." ”

Zhou Tao, Tang Ming, and Tang Can walked deeper again.

On the road behind, the three of them did not encounter any danger, the narrow space in the cave slowly became spacious, and Zhou Tao vaguely saw a light in front of him.

This bright light, Tang Ming and Tang Can naturally saw it.

Tang Can couldn't help asking, "Could it be that the cave exit is ahead?" We came out of the mountains? ”

Tang Ming looked at the bright light in front of him carefully, shook his head and said, "Not really, the light is not as strong as the sun's rays, but more like the light emitted by the lamp." ”

"Lights? How can there be a light in this cave? Tang Can was puzzled.

"Don't guess, just take a look." Zhou Tao said indifferently.

"Yes, just go and see." Tang Ming smiled and followed Zhou Tao towards the light at the end.

"Eh, you wait for me." Tang Can, who was still stunned, hurriedly chased after him.

"I'll ......"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Tang Can's eyes were stunned, and Zhou Tao and Tang Ming were also very surprised.

I saw that in front of Zhou Tao and the three of them was a quaint stone bridge, and the light they saw was actually the light emitted by the lanterns on both sides of the bridge.

On the other side of the bridge, a palatial ancient mansion stands there, with countless lanterns hanging in front of the door and on the wall, illuminating the space incomparably brightly.

"W-How is this possible? How could there be such a large mansion in a cave? Tang Ming exclaimed incredulously.

After Zhou Tao began to be shocked, he quickly calmed down, and he said calmly: "There must be demons when things go wrong, so let's be cautious." “

Tang Ming and Tang Can nodded one after another, suppressing the shock in their hearts, it was indeed too strange that there was such a big mansion in the cave.

Zhou Tao stepped on the bridge and looked at the river on both sides of the bridge, the river was as black as ink, and he didn't know what it was.

Walking across the stone bridge, Zhou Tao and the three of them came to the door of the mansion, the gate of the mansion was closed, and Tang Can was about to go up and knock on the door.

"Crunch!"

Before Tang Can's hand landed on the door, the door was opened from the inside, and when the door opened, a fragrance of peach blossoms came to his nose.

A pretty-looking girl respectfully saluted Zhou Tao and said, "My master said that there was a distinguished guest coming to the door and ordered me to come to greet him, please come with me." ”
