Volume 2: Qilian Xianbi Chapter 16: Maternal

It wasn't until we got back on the road that I remembered the box in Uncle Quan's hand. I turned my head to look at Uncle Quan, who was nervous, holding the iron box in his right hand, his brows furrowed.

What does the number on the arrow mean? Could it really be left by someone who has been here before? Could it be the mark that Jinren once left behind? All of this is an unsolved mystery, and we don't know where this will lead us, but then again, from the state of the past few days, I do always faintly feel that Uncle Quan is not right, what is the origin of Qi Gongming who came to him halfway? He always gave me a sense of mystery, which made people unpredictable, from the last time the patriarch of the Yin clan was able to blurt out Jinren's name, and even I don't know his life experience, and, that person named Quanquan'an, what kind of connection do they have? The thought of all this made my head dizzy and my whole body was excited.

Suddenly there was a gust of wind in the dark tunnel, I didn't even want to ask about the iron box again, my mind was dizzy, and he would go, sometimes I really thought of giving up, but there was always unwillingness, and now I was involved in more mysteries, the grandeur of this underground palace, and all kinds of strange events that happened, a person with a little normal thinking would stay away from him.

Thinking about it, my legs didn't obey the call, Liu Yu suddenly slapped me, so that I was excited and regained my spirit, because the dark passage was too quiet, the sound of "PIA" actually echoed here, and the sound became louder and louder. The group was startled and glared back at me, I lowered my head slightly in embarrassment, but suddenly found that the iron box in Uncle Quan's hand was gone!

"Uncle Quan......" I whispered.

Uncle Quan already had beads of sweat on his forehead, and I knew what he was nervous about. "That's what you have..."

Uncle Quan pointed to Xiao Jiu at the back and said, "That's in his backpack." Xiao Jiu nodded and didn't speak again. I felt that my situation was a little awkward, and I smiled and tried to make a joke, but the words came to my lips and swallowed again.

"Hee-hee... Hee-hee-hee-hee......"

With the shrill laughter in my ears, I had goosebumps on my arm, and I subconsciously grabbed Liu Yu's arm, and what I expected happened.

The sharp laughter flickered far and near, and circled around us, with human hearing, it was impossible to locate where he was, the flame in Qi Gongming's hand began to tremble, at this time Liu Yu reached out and grabbed my hand, and I also subconsciously used my other hand to find Xiao Jiu's arm, because it was very close, I grabbed him, and at the same time, as soon as the fire was extinguished, the group quickly ran in the unknown and only direction.

Now we are unarmed, this guy who can let out a sharp laugh must be a black spirit child, and a mother, to be precise, a mother!

In this state, we will not run very fast, the black spirit boy soon appeared behind us, her whole body was red, twice as big as the last one, like a toad, jumping forward, a few meters away, I can vaguely feel her murderous eyes, the mouth of the echo sound of "hee-hee". Xiao Jiu collapsed to the ground in fright, this instantly became a burden, my arm fell, and it hurt to pull, he lay on the ground and hummed in his mouth, I didn't let go, but he became a sleigh and rubbed on the ground, which instantly slowed down our overall speed.

Qi Gongming scolded "damn it", turned around and threw out of the team, and immediately threw Xiao Jiu to his shoulder with one hand, and got on our speed, but it was much too late, the black spirit boy pounced on his legs with a back kick, I heard Xiao Jiu's "ah" sound, that heartbreaking, and instantly a white light came out of Uncle Quan's hand, and the mother had the meaning of retreating, seeing the situation, I immediately stopped and ran over to pull Xiao Jiu off his back, and dragged him towards the team.

At this time, Qi Gongming can't stop, this is the best time, this is the last fireworks egg, all fate is betting on this fire that is about to be extinguished, and the rest depends on Qi Gongming's kung fu.

Taking advantage of the situation, Qi Gongming let out a loud sigh and fought back. This black spirit boy mother is not a vegetarian, where is it so easy to deal with, Qi Gongming attacked several times without success, at this time everyone's heart was raised to the throat, the fireworks egg had obviously weakened, and the sound of "hehe" came out again, and this voice appeared at this time to make people gnash their teeth. Qi Gongming also made the final blow.

He fell silent, and so did the whole atmosphere, and we didn't dare make a sound. The sharp sound was getting closer and closer, and just when a black blurred figure appeared, Qi Gongming rushed up and attacked the black shadow directly, with such a fast speed, a sharp howl sounded around him, which was deafening.

Then, more "cooing" sounds came from the other side of the dark passage, and I was shocked, not good! She's summoned the Black Spirit Child! In an instant, there were more and more voices, and the black shadows around him also surged up, and I couldn't tell whether it was caused by psychological effects or whether a large group of black spirit children really appeared, in short, it was true that there was a drum in my heart.

Qi Gongming saw that the situation was not good, and made a gesture towards us, "Run!" A group of people rushed again!

Heaven answers! There is an exit ahead! Everyone is like oil on the soles of their feet, only me... Carrying Xiao Jiu on his back, it feels like he has an extra snail shell on his back...

The moment I rushed out of the dark passage, the soles of my feet stepped on the air, due to gravity and inertia, I fell forward with Xiao Jiu's parabolic trajectory, I didn't have too much time to observe the surrounding situation, I only saw a white clearing, I closed my eyes and tried to squeeze there in mid-air, and my body didn't know how many 360 degrees I turned in the air, and when I fell on the ground, my back was down, but fortunately the ground was not very hard, Xiao Jiu was also separated from me, I don't know where he fell, the moment he landed, The first thing that comes to mind is not whether there is any injury, nor is it in the mood to feel the pain, but to immediately find the direction of other people, and leaving the team at this time is the most terrible.

I stood up and only felt a little pain in my legs, I couldn't take care of it so much, I was relieved to see Uncle Quan, Liu Yu and Qi Gongming around, I looked down to look for Xiao Jiu, but I saw blood bubbling out of his mouth, I was startled, and immediately lay down, he began to roll his eyes, I pumped him twice, and there was no response. His chest was already red with blood, and I immediately called Uncle Quan, who came over and pressed the corner of his eye, but he couldn't see the black eyeballs. Qi Gongming walked over and said, "He was injured by the fangs of the Black Spirit Boy, and he may not be able to escape this catastrophe." "I saw that his eyes were cold, and I wanted to get up and beat him! This is a living human life! However, what qualifications do I have, he rescued him from the mouth of the spirit boy, and now the saddest thing should be Uncle Quan, Xiao Jiu was brought up by him like a son since he was a child.

Uncle Quan's arms trembled, and he took a deep breath, the blood gushing out of Xiao Jiu's mouth had turned black, and he was still twitching. Uncle Quan stretched out his trembling arm and prostrated himself into Xiao Jiu's eyes.

"Goo-goo..."

"Goo-goo..."

The voice of the black spirit boy appeared again, this time from above, I looked up, startled by the scene in front of me, this is the real magnificent palace! More than ten meters of gilded pillars support the top of the ring dragon above, and the place where we fell just now is about five or six meters high unknown dark passage, but the surrounding situation is not normal at all, there are many potholes in the wall, there are many sculptures and antiquities that have been cut in half, and the whole palace is in tatters, as if it has been invaded by the Eight-Nation Alliance. There were all kinds of corpses and weapons scattered around, some of which were even nailed to the pillars and walls, but looking at their clothes, they were not ancient people, but modern people, and I was shocked, could it be Jinren?
