Chapter 84: The Boss's Punishment
Gu Zhizhi's words were conclusive, and even when he said the last sentence, he took two steps forward on his knees, pulled the master's robe, and looked up at him with extremely earnest eyes.
I have to say that her language talent is really strong.
After hearing this, the head of the sect reacted similarly to Lian Zhan Fang Cheng, and out of concern for Ying Ling, he immediately shifted the focus to the heart knot.
"What do you want to investigate...... It is a secret of the Qingyun Sect. ”
The head sighed, and his gaze became far-reaching, as if he was reminiscing about the past.
"All the files that record this matter have been destroyed, and there are very few people in the entire immortal cultivation world, all the sects, who know about it. Even those who knew about it had reached an agreement with the Qingyun Sect and would never mention it again. ”
Gu Zhizhi frowned, "What happened back then was so serious?!" ”
"It's not serious, it's tragic." The master's gaze fell back on them, "Don't think you'll be able to avoid punishment this way. ”
Gu Zhizhi: "......"
This old man is very good!
It was getting dark.
The candle flame in the library suddenly lit.
The night breeze blew in through the half-open window, but the candle flame did not beat in the slightest, as if in a windless and static space.
"Come with me." The head of the house walked downstairs around the three kneeling people.
The three of them got up from the ground, did not dare to ask any more questions, and followed him in confusion.
The head of the house walked out of the library building and went straight to the treasure pavilion.
He led them up four floors and finally stopped in front of a mirror.
"Master, what is this?" Gu Zhizhi couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked.
"This is your punishment for stealing the waist card and trespassing on the library."
As he spoke, the head of the house tapped his eyebrows together with his fingers and pulled out a wisp of spiritual power and injected it into the mirror.
Gu Zhizhi and the others looked at him nervously and in surprise.
The next second.
With a wave of his sleeves, the head of the house slapped a wisp of their soul into the mirror!
The body outside the mirror instantly softened, and the three of them fell into a ball.
"I didn't expect that after such a long time, Ying Ling was still haunted by the events of that year. If you let it go any longer, I'm afraid you will really have to respond to the words of these three little ghosts. Ying Ling, Ying Ling......"
The head shook his head helplessly, "Fortunately, your three disciples are thoughtful and think about you, hoping to help you survive this catastrophe." ”
.
"Senior brother, be careful!"
Gu Zhizhi reflexively stabbed Luo Qichen to the side of his face, killing a monster that wanted to attack him from behind.
This action is smooth and agile, and the reaction is also fast, Gu Zhizhi can't compare to it at all.
No, I don't think I'm controlling this body!
Gu Zhizhi reacted, and then looked around.
This is the Underworld!
How could they have come here all at once, weren't they in the Treasure Pavilion with the master?
Gu Zhizhi suddenly realized.
It must be in that mirror.
Before coming here, the head of the sect injected a ray of his mind into the mirror, probably to create this illusion.
Then they are ......
"The demons are too dense, and we can't stand it if we don't find the red sky like this!" Luo Qichen shouted.
Gu Zhizhi was dealing with the monsters surging from all directions, and at the same time, he was looking for something everywhere.
"Go there!"
Luo Qichen looked along the tip of Gu Zhizhi's sword and found that it was a cave.
The hole is in the ground and extends down to the ground.
It looked like a cave of some kind of earth-based monster.
But for now, it's better to be there than to be on the ground.
If you choose between being attacked from all sides, it must be the former!
"Let's go! Retreat in the direction of the cave! Luo Qichen shouted loudly.
Immortal friends from various sects responded one after another.
A group of people fought and retreated, and finally entered the cave.
Those who still have strength to hold the entrance to the cave, and those who are injured and exhausted can rest for a while.
Although the situation was still dangerous, everyone was finally able to catch their breath.
"Senior brother, let's go to the cave to find out, in case there are monsters lurking on the side all the time." Gu Zhizhi proposed.
"Good!" Luo Qichen responded in one bite.
"Two immortal friends, I'll go with you." Fang Cheng ran from behind.
Gu Zhizhi and Luo Qichen nodded.
"It's good, there are many people to take care of."
The three of them slowed down, kept on alert, and slowly touched deeper into the cave.
Gu Zhizhi thought darkly.
She couldn't control the body's speech, eyes, or movements, and it seemed to be someone's memory.
She could only follow the man's memory and go through what she had experienced.
And what about her......
Gu Zhizhi guessed that this person was most likely the woman that the master cared about.
It's just that in order to let them have a good experience, the head replaced their names and appearances with them.
Luo Qichen and Fang Cheng should be able to guess this.
As their memories progress, they will be able to understand what happened in the past and the origin of the master's knot.
Judging from the clothes, Fang Cheng is not a member of the Qingyun Sect now.
I don't know what important role he plays in it.
Gu Zhizhi's thoughts were fleeting.
Except for the fact that the brain can't keep up with the original owner's reaction during the battle, there is a sense of substitution at other times.
This is more VR than modern VR.
Gu Zhizhi's spirit melted into this body, immersed in an atmosphere of tension and silence.
The cave is not very deep, and it doesn't take long to reach the end.
Luo Qichen looked around, "The cave is impassable, it's not a mouse or a rabbit or something, and it doesn't look like a snake." ”
Gu Zhizhi shook the tip of his nose, but he didn't smell any peculiar smell.
Fang Cheng observed along the cave wall and found some traces of violent destruction on it.
"Look here, it's either a scratch or something hard."
"Senior brother's guess is right, but I can't be sure what lives here just by this." Gu Zhi knows.
Fang Cheng said: "It doesn't matter, at least it proves that this place is safe for the time being, let's just go back and guard the entrance of the cave." ”
Gu Zhizhi and Luo Qichen nodded.
The three of them were about to walk back.
Suddenly, the ground shook!
The cave shook, and the walls were rustled with rubble.
"Senior sister!"
In a panic, Luo Qichen reluctantly supported Gu Zhizhi.
The three of them staggered and didn't stand firm, but they found that the ground was slowly rising.
No!
It's not the ground!
As the yellow sand and stones shook off, the "ground" revealed its original black appearance.
Two large pincers protrude from the ground.
"Be careful!" Luo Qichen shouted, and rolled to the side with Gu Zhizhi.
Bite!
A hook spike landed where they had been standing in the next second.
The spikes are sharp and shimmer with a metallic sheen.
There was also an ominous drop of dark purple liquid hanging from the sharp tip.
When it was completely out of the ground, the three of them saw it as it was.
It's a huge scorpion!
The three of them were horrified as they took out their sidearms and fought back.
But whether it was Gu Zhizhi and Luo Qichen's sword qi, or Fang Cheng's scimitar, they could only leave a shallow white mark on the scorpion.
It is absolutely unusual for this scorpion to have such a size.
Not only does it carry poison, but it also has powerful pincers and a scorpion tail, and even the shell is so hard.
For a while, the three of them couldn't find a way to deal with it!
The cave is narrow, and they have to find ways to attack inside, but also dodge and escape, and they are in a state of confusion.
