"The black clouds outside the cave made a whirring sound, and I walked to the stone railing at the edge of the cave to see that the sky and the sun were covered outside, and it was full of black clouds. The black cloud turned out to be a dense crowd of crows hovering in the air.

"I followed my ancestor out of the cave, and the outside of the cave was dark and gloomy by the black clouds formed by the crows overhead, like the scene of an approaching thunderstorm.

"We crossed the Shuowang Bridge, passed through the holes in the pinnacles, and descended the ruler-like staircase into the gorge.

Yi Qi Chong led a group of Xuanshi Xuantong to wander outside the black hole in the middle of the canyon, and everyone was talking.

"Seeing the arrival of the ancestor, Yi Qichong immediately greeted him, stopped in front of the ancestor and said, 'Senior Brother Yong has broken into the Divine Sword Cave. ’

"The master said, 'What the hell is going on?'

"Yi Qichong said: 'In the morning, I finished practicing morning exercises with him, and he said that he was completely well, and he had to go around the mountain, and I also warned him not to go to the back mountain, so I visited the scenery of the front mountain and the buildings in the Xuanyuan Palace, and he said that he knew. So I went to the library to sort out the scriptures. Not long after, a few junior disciples ran over and said that Senior Brother Yong had gone to the back mountain. I hurried after him, and chased him to the canyon, but there was no one to see. Later, I found that the canopy of the Excalibur Cave had been split by a large gap, and I realized that he had already gone down the cave. ’

After hearing this, the ancestor's face changed color, and he said loudly: 'You two go down and find him, and you must not let him touch the stone gate. ’

"I walked away after listening to this, but Yi Qichong stood still and didn't move.

"Seeing this, Shizu said, 'Chong'er, what's wrong with you?'

"Yi Qichong said, 'Didn't you say that let's not go into the cave casually?' ’

"Shizu said anxiously: 'Now the situation is urgent, hurry up. ’

Only then did Yi Qi Chong turn around and run with me to the entrance of the cave.

"We crossed the stream, brushed aside the branches and leaves of the trees at the mouth of the cave, and looked down, and saw that the cave was dark and bottomless, and the stream poured down the slope of the cave that stretched out to the ground, and scoured many grooves in the shape of a ridge on the stone slope, and the sound of the water was chaotic and ethereal.

"At the edge of the trenches, near the walls of the caves, there were steps leading downward, and the steps were covered with moss and lichen.

Yi Qichong and I stepped up the steps one after the other, and walked down cautiously.

"As soon as I had taken two or three steps, someone shouted from behind: 'Senior brother, wait a minute, let's go and prepare a fire for you.' ’

"Then I heard the voice of the master: 'Stand still, and there will be no open fire in the cave.' Let them go, it's not dark down there. ’

When I heard this, I secretly complained in my heart, looking like an ink jar at a glance, how could I still say that it was not dark, it turned out that the ancestor would also comfort people.

"We went down the stairs step by step, and the further down we got, the blurred vision became. When I walked to the back, I couldn't see anything at all, so I could only walk with my feet.

"In the darkness where I couldn't see my fingers, I could only hear the sound of running water in my ears, and I felt that the only organ in my body that could sense the outside world was two legs.

"After exploring in the darkness for a long time, I began to perceive a faint light in front of my eyes.

"So he asked Yi Qichong: 'Senior brother, have you seen a light ahead?'

Yi Qi Chong glanced back, and was about to speak, when the soles of his feet slipped, and he fell down the steps with a thud, and then slid straight down the depths of the cave.

"I heard a long shout: 'Ah——!'

Then there was a pop from the bottom of the cave, and the bottom of the cave became clear.

"I hurried down in the light.

"Where the steps end is a long, horizontally extended cave with a dark river running across it, and only a path overhangs the cliff wall by the dark river, leading to the ends of the cave.

"Yiqi rushed into the river and shouted: 'Senior Brother Sheng, pull me up quickly.' ’

"I jumped down the steps and came to the river, only to realize that the light had just come from the river.

"There are a lot of fish in the river that are five or six inches long, like catfish and grass carp, and their whole bodies are shining. The entire river is dotted with schools of fish like a band of light.

"From where Yiqi washed down the river, the farther you go to the ends of the river, the darker the light band, and only faint fluorescence can be seen in the farthest distance.

"Seeing that I was just looking around, Yi Qi rushed to shout impatiently, 'Senior brother, what are you doing, hurry up.' ’

"I pulled him out of the river and ashore. It is said to be a shore, but it is actually a path on the cliff.

"When the senior brother had settled down, I asked, 'This cave has two ends, and we should go that way. ’

"Yi Qichong said, 'Hear where that strange sound came from?'

"I listened closely, and all I heard was the sound of metal vibrating on my left hand.

I pointed to the left-hand side.

"Yi Qichong said 'go' and headed in the direction I pointed. I followed him closely and walked towards the end of the cave.

As we walked, the light began to dim.

Yi Qi Chong leaned down to pick up a large rock in the ground and threw it into the river.

As soon as the stone fell into the water with a thud, the surroundings immediately became brighter.

"Before I could ask, my brother said proudly, 'When I just fell into the water, I found that the light on those fish, when they were frightened, would brighten. No wonder the master said that it was not dark underneath. ’

"I said, 'I've never seen a fish that glows, and this fish in the ground is amazing.'" Brother, the fish in my cave can't be 10,000 years ago, right?'

"Yi Qichong said: 'The situation in the canyon is also what I heard from my ancestors. I haven't come down to the cave, and my ancestor won't talk about the situation inside. Whether it was 10,000 years ago or not, I don't know. ’

"As we were talking, we heard someone calling in front of us.

Yi Qichong and I hurriedly ran over.

When he came to the place where he was called, he saw a man lying on the ground against the cliff in the darkness.

Yi Qichong picked up another stone and threw it into the river.

"By the light I could see the man's face clearly, and it was the Cunli.

"I anxiously asked, 'Cunli, what's wrong with you?'

"Cunli groaned and said, 'I let the worms bite me. ’

"I thought it was funny, and said contemptuously, 'It's not like you, is it so ghostly to cry wolf after a worm bite?' I heard you cry from afar. ’

"He pointed to his calf and said, 'Look. ’

"When I saw it, I was taken aback.

On his calf, it looked like something had gouged out a fist-sized piece of flesh, and the leg bones were exposed, and blood was flowing out.

I hurriedly squatted down, tore a lock of cloth from his clothes, and tied it tightly to the base of his thigh to stop his bleeding.

Yi Qi rushed to the side and asked, 'Are you sure it was bitten by insects?' What kind of insect can bite such a large piece of meat, this piece of meat, a litter of insects can eat for a year.' It can't be dazzling, right?'

"Just then, we heard a clattering sound behind the rock corner in front of us.

Yi Qi Chong tiptoed towards the place where the sound had come from, holding the scabbard with his left hand as he went, and grasping the hilt with his right hand to the left.

Suddenly, a black shadow fell from above Yi Qi Chong, and then Yi Qi Chong was heard screaming.

"Gollum, a strange thing rolled in front of me and Cunli. ”
