【848】Three-stick wood

The wind whistled, and the swamp fell silent. Xiao Shizhu and the cyclops python disappeared into the quagmire.

On the quagmire, the helpless national teacher Yingying concentrated and sensed the breath of Xiao Shizhu. But she found nothing, which made her even more anxious. The national teacher Yingying, who frowned, was full of fine sweat on his forehead.

Between the facial features, worry and anxiety are also intertwined. There is also nervousness and fear, flowing with the blood of ghosts in the body, making the national teacher's palms full of sweat beads.

Just when the national teacher Yingying was at a loss and didn't know how to find Xiao Shizhu's whereabouts, the quagmire tumbled, like boiling water, and the muddy water kept splashing.

Suddenly, the national teacher Yingying could sense it again, and Xiao Shizhu's breath disappeared for a moment, and suddenly reappeared.

Just as she turned to face the direction where Xiao Shizhu's breath appeared, the muddy water in that place immediately split into two, surging in the opposite direction like a tide, and the corpses in the muddy water followed the waves, surging up and being submerged by the rolled up muddy water, and they couldn't review it again. Xiao Shizhu, who had disappeared for a moment, flew out of the broken muddy water.

As for the one-eyed python that swallowed Xiao Shizhu, it never reappeared. This made the national teacher Yingying have an illusion in a trance, the so-called one-eyed python does not exist at all, it is all imagined by them.

Xiao Shizhu, who was ejected from the mud, did not have any scars on his body, let alone the slightest mud, and his body was clean. However, his eyes had returned to their original state, and the bulging blood vessels in his neck had also returned to normal.

And the Moon Destroying Sword was also retracted from its sheath. It's just that there is more spirit in his eyes, and the essence is skyrocketing.

He rushed out of the darkness, and suddenly felt that the light of the cloudy sun in the east was very dazzling. The light of the Tao pierced his eyes with a faint pain, so that he couldn't help but narrow his eyes, and the light in his eyes was restrained.

In this electric light, Xiao Shizhu has taken advantage of the strong wind to soar into the air for several feet. He immediately summoned his Xuan Li, made a few sharp backflips in mid-air, and then fell backwards.

The muddy water that had parted below had closed up, and the swamp mire had returned to its original state. After all the quagmire quieted down, the floating corpses of the ghosts all gradually sank into the dark muddy water and disappeared.

Xiao Shizhu landed steadily beside the national teacher Yingying, and before he could recover from the strange things he experienced in an instant, the national teacher Yingying beside him had already stretched out his arms, hugged his neck desperately, and cried with joy: "Great, great." It's good you're okay, it's good you're okay. ”。

As he spoke, he wrapped his arms tightly, so afraid that as soon as he let go, Xiao Shizhu would disappear out of thin air.

"Whoever said I'm fine, you're about to strangle me. Xiao Shizhu, whose cheeks were red, suddenly felt that his throat was clamped by something, and he was almost out of breath.

had to say this sentence vigorously, so frightened that the national teacher Yingying hurriedly let go, apologized repeatedly, and accompanied him.

When she let go of her wrist, Xiao Shizhu took a long breath and gasped for breath, as if she had never breathed air in her life.

"You have too much strength, no matter how beautiful a hug is, you can be murdered by you, so you will marry like this in the future?" Xiao Shizhu, who was breathless, teased his national teacher: "Then when your husband and you make love, he must not be strangled to death by you first?"

National teacher Yingying's cheeks turned red when she heard this, and it was red all the way to the base of her ears. On his face and ears, it was as hot as fire.

"Hug like that. With that, Xiao Shizhu took the national teacher into his arms and gave the other party a warm hug.

Before he hugged it, he noticed that the deer in the national teacher's Yingying chest was colliding. Before he could speak, the national teacher Yingying, who was panicked again, pushed Xiao Shizhu away in a panic.

"What the hell are you going on?" pushed Xiao Shizhu away, and the national teacher Yingying asked in a trembling voice. In a panic, she almost said her words incoherently: "Why did it suddenly disappear and suddenly appear again?"

"It's amazing to say, you listen to me tell you slowly. Xiao Shizhu, who was on the trunk of the tree, leaned on the trunk and took out the kettle, took a sip of water first, and then told the national teacher Yingying what he had just experienced.

The wind howled again, and the mist that had spread across the mud pool among the dead trees was blown away by the wind. Everything in the swamp is no longer hazy. In the cloudy light, everything became clear.

Xiao Shizhu said for a long time, and he said everything for a long time before he finished talking about it all.

A moment is just a moment outside of consciousness, a moment. And he was in Huangquan's divine consciousness, but it was a long time.

And the national teacher Yingying, who heard all this, was stunned and didn't know what to say. Everything Xiao Shizhu experienced was not surprising, but what surprised her was nothing more than two things. One is that the world of Huangquan is nothing more than an extension of an alternative ghost, which is diametrically opposed to the creation theory of the ancient gods, where each life is an individual.

The second is that Emperor Xi can actually foresee today's events, which makes her very surprised.

Even Xiao Shizhu, the Yellow Spring, and his party, are clear about what calamities they will encounter.

These two things are enough to surprise the national teacher Yingying. The abilities of the ancient gods are different, but when it comes to knowing the past and the future, the ability to foresee everything is still powerful.

"Ling Zun is really capable. After a long time, the national teacher Ying Ying came to her senses from her stunned and said to Xiao Shizhu: "I can calculate today's events so accurately, so I have made a plan in advance." Throughout the ages, I am afraid that only this one god has this ability. ”。

"Perhaps. Xiao Shizhu replied casually, his face full of pride and pride. It's like a child, showing off his illustrious family background and excellent parents in front of his friends. There is naturally a triumph in the eyes that is difficult to hide.

"The rebirth of the blood pool is consistent with what Xun Xiang said. After pondering for a moment, the national teacher Yingying said thoughtfully: "And the blood pool is on the land of the Northern Yin Dynasty." It seems that the lord, you are really destined to change the dynasty for the underworld. ”。

"So it's a lot of pressure, it's not good, wait for being scolded by the historian in the future. When Xiao Shizhu stood up, he was already frowning, and his face was sad: "If you are dead and lie in the coffin, you have to be scolded by the historians to wake up." ”。

How insincere this is said, Xiao Shizhu has never been afraid of historians. There are also historians in the Nine Shadows Kingdom, who often write him as a tyrant because of his cruelty to his enemies and his ruthlessness towards evil spirits. Not only is he not angry, but he also feels realistic.

Many ghost officials begged him to execute those historians who chewed their tongues, and Xiao Shizhu said: "Sour scholars are indispensable, and they can add fun to life." ”。 On this ground, the execution of the historians was refused.

So what he was afraid of was not the historian's pen, but the scolding of the ghost people.

In order not to be scolded by his mother, he had to do everything he had to do. Then you have to go back alive first.

"Let's go, follow me to find the secret passage. After a while, Xiao Shizhu put away the kettle and stretched his brows, looked up at the sky, and after distinguishing the direction by the cloudy sun in the sky, he looked to the north.

"Okay. The national teacher Ying Ying settled down and followed Xiao Shizhu to the north.

They still didn't dare to walk on the swamp, so they could only jump among the dead trees. This bottomless swamp is still dangerous, even if the one-eyed python no longer appears, the quagmire is a man-eating bloody mouth,

"If there really is that passage, we really have to thank Ling Zun. ”。

Today's national teacher Yingying, it should be said that the current national teacher Yingying has a lot of words. While following Xiao Shizhu to the north, she chattered: "Without him, we would have a lot more trouble." ”。

Xiao Shizhu didn't bother her, and said: "Then back to the Netherworld, you go to the temple to kowtow to his old man's head a few times." ”。

The two ghosts chatted one sentence after another, shuttling north among the dead trees. Most of the attention was focused on finding the fossil of the three-pronged wood that Huang Quan told Xiao Shizhu.

If they find these three sticks, they will be able to find a way to live, provided that Huang Quan does not deceive Xiao Shizhu.

However, judging from the general signs, Huang Quan really did not deceive Xiao Shizhu.

After a while, Xiao Shizhu, who had been walking in front, suddenly stopped.

"What do you see?" asked Yingying, the national teacher who followed him, after standing beside him.

Blind, she can only see the world by perception. But she couldn't perceive anything now, except for her and Xiao Shizhu, there was only a faint rancid smell left, and the muddy water of the quagmire and the scattered fossils and dead trees around her.

She couldn't sense anything else.

"I saw it, I saw the three sticks. Xiao Shizhu looked ahead and said slowly.

What caught his eye was a fossilized dead wood with a trunk as straight as a spear, and the trunk of the tree, which could only be hugged by three or five souls, was more than several feet high, and stood in the quagmire a few feet away in front of him.

Originally, I just came to see it with the hope of just in case, but I didn't expect Huang Quan to really not lie to him. Here, indeed, there is a three-stick wood.

Looking at the trunk, from the southeast and northwest, as well as the northeast, the three sides of the tree, no more, no less, a total of three branches, Xiao Shizhu was so excited that his fingers trembled a few times.

The national teacher Yingying held her breath and concentrated, carefully perceiving where Xiao Shizhu's eyes could reach.

She soon sensed the shape of the fossilized dead wood, a pillar of optimus, with three branches.

"Three Trees?" said the national teacher Yingying stunned.

"Hmm. That's it. Xiao Shizhu nodded, and took the lead in leaping towards the three pillars.

His perception has been greatly improved now, and he doesn't need to rely on the national teacher Yingying, and he can clearly perceive that there is no murderous intent hidden around. So, he went straight to the three sticks.

After a few moves, Xiao Shizhu leaped onto the three branches, the lowest branch.

Xiao Shizhu, who landed steadily on the branch, looked down and didn't see any secret passages. But he was not surprised or impressed, but walked towards the other end of the three sticks.

The national teacher Yingying followed closely and followed.

When they came to the northeast branch and stood still, and when they looked down, their eyes were filled with joy.

They saw a large hole in the north side of the trunk, near the surface of the mud pool, in the middle of the tree. As described by Huang Quan, the height and width were just enough for an adult Dangkang beast soul to enter it.

Behind the dark hole, I couldn't see what it was. But on the bark to the left and right of the cave entrance, the petrified bark people have traces of carving.

The carving is a statue of two men and women with snake tails, one on the left and one on the right. They face the entrance of the cave and stand opposite each other. In the vicissitudes of wind and rain for thousands of years, they still stand at the entrance of the cave. Letting the wind and rain blow, grinding their facial features and body contours, they still didn't move.

They are like two strong-willed warriors, who have been guarding this secret passage, guarding this secret hidden deep in this dangerous swamp.

"Looks like this is it. National teacher Yingying listened to the sound of the wind gushing out of the cave and said slowly.

"Hmm. Xiao Shizhu nodded and said.
