Zhang Yueqing followed the dwarf to the boat, and as soon as he stepped on the board, a fishy smell came to his nose. It's like it

Rotting corpses, long-accumulating breath.

He frowned, and he didn't have time to worry about much. The dwarf shook his oars, turned the bow of the boat, and sailed back on the way.

The boat moves slowly on the blue river, and the blue water reflects the red hull of the boat, and as the boat flows, there are layers of ripples.

In the river, there are many things like centipedes, scorpions, poisonous snakes, etc. When they saw the boat coming, they seemed frightened and scattered in all directions.

The creaking sound of the oars was harsh in the silence of the night sky.

The dwarf suddenly spoke, "When you get to the place, the hero has to find the antidote by himself, and I can't accompany him." ”

Zhang Yueqing said, "What, bring me, an outsider, in, for fear of being implicated?"

The dwarf smiled awkwardly and said, "Daxia Mingjian, in fact, having said that, a little person like me really can't help you, so you might as well raise your noble hand and let me go." ”

Zhang Yueqing said, "On this river, apart from you, there is no other pedestrian boat?"

The dwarf understood his intentions for a moment, and said, "There are other ships during the day, but I am the only one at night. But you're not afraid of poisonous insects, even if you don't have me with you, you have a way to cross this river. This explanation is a bit far-fetched, but it's better than being seen with your own eyes. ”

Zhang Yueqing said, "I remember that you said before that I had eaten ten thousand worms, what is that? These poisonous insects dare not come close to me, is this the reason?"

The dwarf nodded and said, "Yes, this Ten Thousand Snakes is a sacred relic in the Lunatic Worship Sect, and it is specially used for the disciples above the white cloth of the Lunatic Worship Sect to drive away poisonous insects. He glanced at Zhang Yueqing quietly and said, "I don't know where the hero came from?"

Zhang Yueqing said coldly, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask! Who are you? Why is a person extradited here?"

Seeing that his tone was not good, the dwarf did not dare to ask any more questions, but hurriedly replied, "I am but a boatman, and in the door, that is the most humble existence." If the elders knew that I had smuggled outsiders over, they would have thrown me into a wormhole, and ten thousand snakes would devour me and die!"

There was deep fear in his eyes.

Zhang Yueqing sneered, "Is it just a boatman? I'm afraid that I often catch some people who strayed into it, and use them as medicine for practice!"

As soon as he saw this person's appearance, he knew what Ye Xinxin said, he met her on the mountain that day, and it must be this person who wanted to arrest her back.

The dwarf was told by him, and said with a smile, "I don't want to meet a master like a hero today, and I'm ugly, I'm ugly." ”

The two were silent again, and after a while, the river was coming to an end. At the end, rows of houses rise from the ground, all of them of average height, except for one tall building. These houses, with their roofs bright red, glow with an eerie sheen in the moonlight.

The dwarf whispered, "Hero, it's here, please get off the boat." ”

Zhang Yueqing's long sword swung and brushed the dwarf's neck. The dwarf's face turned pale with fright, and he said intermittently, "Great. . . Swordsman. It's useless for you to catch me, they won't care if I live or die, take me with me, but it's a burden, please, let me go. ”

Zhang Yueqing naturally refused to believe him, and shouted, "Don't talk nonsense, go down with me!"

The dwarf was sad, but he did not dare to say more, so he had to follow him out of the boat.

Zhang Yueqing said, "How can I get the antidote?"

The dwarf pointed to the house in front of him, motioned for Zhang Yueqing to lie down, and he lay down in the grass first. Zhang Yueqing knew that he was afraid of being seen, so he also squatted down.

The dwarf said softly, "In the door, no matter what kind of poison, ordinary, powerful, the antidote is only available to the elders and the sect master. The sect master went out a few months ago, and he hasn't come back yet, so if you want to get the antidote, you can only find the three elders!"

The main stone of the Five Poisons Gate was shocking, and that day in the Mobei Forest, he had died at the hands of Xiao Jinyan, and he would never come back. Zhang Yueqing heard that he was not lying, his tone was gentle, and said, "Where are the three elders?"

The dwarf pointed to the tall attic in the middle of the house, "It's on the eighth floor of the Nine Heavens!"

The so-called Nine Heavens is actually a pavilion with a total of nine floors. However, among the many dwarf houses around, it is a bit of a standout.

Zhang Yueqing said, "In addition to the three elders, are there any other people there?"

The dwarf snorted a few times and refused to say any more, Zhang Yueqing said angrily, "Say it quickly, or you will be killed with a sword!"

The dwarf was helpless and said, "There are nine layers in the Nine Heavens, and it is a place for disciples in the sect to cultivate. This to the third layer are all ordinary beginner disciples, and the fourth to sixth layers are elite disciples who have cultivated for more than three years. This seventh layer. After a pause, he saw Zhang Yueqing staring at him fiercely, and then said, "The seventh layer is the best disciples. It is also a candidate for the future master of the door. ”

Zhang Yueqing suddenly thought that this elder was on the eighth and ninth floors, and he was the master of the door. However, Shi Jingtian had already died in the desert, and there was no one above the ninth floor.

The dwarf said, "The disciples practice there during the day, and they all go back to the next house to rest at night. There are only three elders who have been practicing in retreat in the eighth layer, and at this time, there should only be three of them left. ”

Zhang Yueqing nodded, although he was not sure whether there was a truth or a falsehood in his words, but the Nine Heavens must go. Mobilize enough internal force to connect several acupoints on the dwarf's body.

The dwarf snorted and fainted.

Zhang Yueqing lifted his body and threw him into the boat. And he set the anchor head on the shore, and calculated it in his heart. "When I get the antidote, I'll row and leave. There were no other ships in the vicinity, and even if they did, they wouldn't be able to catch up with them for a while. ”

Take a deep breath and return the sword to its sheath. Walk lightly, and in the silence of the night, do not make a sound.

Slowly walking into the house group, the ground is no longer mud and grass, but paved with bluestone slabs, these stone slabs are of different sizes, but the edges are very neatly polished, densely connected, there are no gaps, such a structure, it is also quite difficult.

When he looked at the Nine Heavens from a distance, he felt that the distance was not very far. However, as soon as you enter the house, it is as if you are in the sea, and there are rows of eaves overhead, and the direction is difficult to discern. He walked around from memory for a while, but could not find the location of the pavilion.

In desperation, he gently kicked his feet on the ground, went up to the roof, and when he looked again, he saw that the destination was more than 100 feet away from him. He lowered his pace and shuttled across the rooftop, and suddenly heard a few strange noises, and a large black bird flew into the air in the distance, spreading its wings in the sky, and roaring loudly.

Zhang Yueqing secretly said that it was not good, lifted his internal force, and his body turned into a feather arrow, and swept towards the Nine Heavens.

Suddenly, the lights were bright, and the noisy voices rang out. Hundreds of people flocked out of the houses.

The big bird was very spiritual, and it actually followed Zhang Yueqing up and down on the roof, and kept emitting a piercing long chirp from its mouth.

Zhang Yueqing stabbed with a sword, and the bird dodged, always keeping a few feet away from him.

At this moment, several men followed the voice and went up to the room, waving their weapons and attacking Zhang Yueqing.

Zhang Yueqing's long sword slashed and slashed, knocking down several people.

However, more people jumped up, and Zhang Yueqing stood still, holding a sword.

Out of the crowd came a young man dressed in white, probably in his twenties, with a handsome face and a scimitar in his hand. Beside him, there were several men in green clothes, yellow clothes, and red clothes. The young man in white held a knife in his hand, chanted words in his mouth, and said well, but Zhang Yueqing didn't understand it at all.

Seeing that he didn't answer, the young man in white pointed at him with a scimitar and shouted, "Kill!"
