The drifting heavy rain poured down from the dark clouds full of lightning and thunder, and all the warriors tried their best to stand on the constantly shaking ground with their feet, Xiao Yueming hugged Su Lan in his arms tightly, and looked up into space, the heavy rain was connected to each other into an irresistible rain curtain, like a big net, shrouded towards everyone.

Unintentionally, the mage left suddenly at this critical moment, there must be some ulterior motive, Gray Cloud stood in front of Shangguan with a solemn face, protected him behind him, and said in a low voice:

"Etiquette, the ancient city is about to appear, they are all prepared, and we don't know anything about the news in the ancient city, everything needs to be careful!"

Shangguan Yili glanced at Wang Jiangyuan, who was trembling and following him, and saw that he smiled contemptuously, looking full of self-confidence:

"What can you do if you are fully prepared, the treasures of chance have been obtained by people who have been destined since ancient times, and I will fight for him in the official ceremony!"

I saw that the flying tiger bent his knees, formed a horse step, lowered his center of gravity, and cursed again and again in his mouth:

"His grandmother's, why is this still an earthquake?!"

The other three of the Four Saints of the Ancient Mountain were all observing the surrounding environment with solemn faces, not as panicked and frightened as the rest of the lowly martial artists.

In a dense forest half a mile away from the ridge clearing, I saw Wu Xiong and Gu Hong, dressed in black robes, walking slowly in the woods, the ground shook violently, and the trees shook more than once, and fine dirt and stones kept splashing on the legs of the two, but both of them were masters, and this shaking was not taken into account.

And Wu Xiong was holding half a broken map in his hand, which was yellowed all over, and there were dark marks on the edge that seemed to have been left behind after being burned, revealing the vicissitudes of time.

At this time, Wu Xiong was holding the broken map in both hands, and the entire ground under his feet was shaking, and he was very careful when he saw his appearance, as if this broken map was some kind of treasure.

"Senior Gu Hong, according to the records on the map, the secret entrance to the ancient city is near here. ”

Wu Xiong looked at the dense woods around him and said casually.

In this Qionghai mountain forest, which is full of several names, it is not easy to determine an accurate location, only through the terrain and some stones as a mark, but also thanks to the guidance of the map, the two in charge can not see anything unusual about this place at all.

Gu Hong confidently looked around, and everywhere he saw was lush trees:

"Well, let's just wait here for a moment and wait for the entrance to the ancient city to open. ”

I saw Wu Xiong carefully fold the half of the map that was about to break and fall apart, and then put it close to the placket on his chest, and said with a strange smile on his face:

"According to the map, the exit that is about to appear, although it can also enter the ancient city, but there are many mechanisms arranged in it, there are not many of them, even if it is a second-rate master, a careless will die on the spot, that group of rabble, still thinking about harvesting cheats, soaring into the sky, it is really ridiculous, I am afraid that only the master of the first-class realm can get something. ”

"It's ridiculous that they even think that they have found traces of the ancient city, it's really a fool's dream, and it's just a joke!"

Seeing that hundreds of martial artists did not know how to go deep into the tiger's den, and there were even two first-class masters among them, but he was able to take a shortcut, avoid many dangers, and directly enter the core area, which made Wu Xiong couldn't help but feel proud in his heart.

Just as Wu Xiong imagined that the treasure was about to be included in his pocket, a melodious voice of the Buddha was heard in the distance:

"Amitabha, my Buddha is compassionate, is it possible that the two donors have forgotten the poor monks?"

Wu Xiong and Gu Hong heard this voice, and couldn't help but look pale, but as soon as the voice fell, the unintentional mage performed light skills and flew in front of the two.

Unintentional mage slowly landed from mid-air, even if the ground shook violently, he could also turn a blind eye, seeing him holding the golden Jiuxi Zen staff in one hand, saluting with one hand, even if his body was already soaked with rain, but the temperament of the Taoist monk was not reduced by half:

"Two donors, even if you are a poor monk who is proud of his light work, you are not as good as you, but without the poor monk, you can't open the most important thing in the ancient city. ”

Wu Xiong naturally didn't want to see the smug face of this unintentional mage, so he immediately turned his head away, and his eyes searched for the possible location of the entrance.

A hoarse voice came from under the black robe of Gu Hong:

"Unintentional mage, without us, you wouldn't be able to enter the ancient city. ”

The rain slowly flowed down from the bald head of the unintentional mage, who did not have a single hair, and I saw him chuckle and perform a Buddhist salute:

"Poor monks and donors, but without each other can not, Buddhism once said that the mystery of fate in the world is endless, the cycle is changeable, poor monks and donors, or fate is very deep. ”

This bald donkey spoke one by one, Gu Hong had already seen it, and saw that he did not bother with the unintentional mage, but clasped his hands and waited for the entrance to open.

The earthquake lasted for about a pillar of incense, and after a pillar of incense, the shaking ground around it gradually calmed down, and the shaking trees were quiet, and the entire Qionghai mountains and forests returned to their original lifeless, death-like silence.

It was not only the earthquake that stopped, but also the heavy rain that had been drifting for most of the day, and finally stopped, Wu Xiong looked up expectantly, and his eyes could be vaguely seen through the gaps in the dense canopy, although the rain and thunder had disappeared, but the thick black clouds had dispersed for a long time, and even became thicker and heavier.

Wu Xiong, Gu Hong, and Master Unintentional saw that the earthquake had stopped, and they all looked around with heavy expressions, observing what was different around them.

"Boom~"

A roar like stones rubbing against each other came from the ground, and it was under the feet of the three of them, at the moment of the sound, Gu Hong and the unintentional mage reacted first, and the pace of the two of them retreated to three zhang away in an instant, and Wu Xiong was not strong enough for the two, but he was also a master of the ordinary second-rate realm, seeing his legs flashing one after another, he followed closely behind the two.

I saw that after making a small noise, the ground slowly cracked a crack, and as the gap continued to grow, the rainwater accumulated from the wet mud on the ground fell into the dark hole from the gap......

"Click~"

With the crisp sound of the machine closing, the original gap has turned into a pitch-black hole.

The three of them glanced at each other, and then secretly mentioned the internal force of the dantian, and carefully walked to the edge of the hole, only to see that the hole suddenly appeared on the flat ground, the hole was about half a person wide, and below was a steep building, but the surrounding environment was extremely dark, but it was impossible to see where the building led, only three or four steps of depth could be seen, and further down, it was a thick pitch black.

After all, this passage appeared so weird and abrupt, the three of them were reluctant to enter the hole first to open the way for a while, thinking that they would let each other walk in front, and when they encountered danger, they would have time to dodge, and the three of them looked at each other and were speechless for a while.

Wu Xiong took out the broken map in his arms again, and carefully compared it under the smiling gaze of the unintentional mage:

"There should be no mistake in the location, this tunnel is a safe entrance into the ancient city. ”

After Wu Xiong finished speaking, he saw that the unintentional mage and Gu Hong both looked at him with deep meaning, Wu Xiong couldn't help but be stunned in his heart, and faintly felt something:

"Two seniors, why are you looking at me?"

I saw Gu Hong dodge to Wu Xiong's side, and snatched the broken map in his hand, Wu Xiong was caught off guard, and the strength of the other party was much higher than his own, and when he reacted, the map was already in Gu Hong's hands.

Wu Xiong's face was pale, the qi and blood in his body were surging, and he couldn't help but secretly clench his fists:

"Senior Gu Hong, why are you robbing me of the map, what are you trying to do?!"

I saw that Gu Hong's voice was as usual, still calm and hoarse, as if he had just done a trivial thing:

"This ancient city is full of dangers, although we are taking the safe passage recorded on the map, but we can't avoid any unpredictable things, your cultivation is not weak, but this map is still placed here with me, it is safer. ”

"You go down the tunnel first, and the mage and I will help you well. ”

Saying this, I saw the unintentional mage clasp his hands together, and then smiled:

"Then there is Master Lao Wu, this tunnel is dark and damp, Master Wu should be careful. ”

Looking at the treacherous faces of these two people, Wu Xiong's chest burned with rage, like a volcanic eruption:

"Damn, these two despicable villains want to grasp it as a pathstone!"

Wu Xiong's cultivation and unintentional mage, Gu Hong compared, naturally not enough to see, now the most important hole card in his hand, the ancient city map was also taken away by Gu Hong unexpectedly, now Wu Xiong is like a defenseless ordinary person, and two hungry wolves who eat people and do not spit out bones, if you are not careful, you will die on the spot.

Seeing Wu Xiong's pale face, Gu Hong immediately spoke:

"You are just a dog above, the above sent me to ask you to assist me, if you dare to disobey the order, then there is only a dead end, if you obediently explore the way for me, and after success, you will naturally be rewarded from above. ”

"How to choose, you can do it yourself. ”

Wu Xiong lowered his head deeply, and his back molars were also creaking, he knew that what Gu Hong said was true, but he didn't expect that he had calculated everything, but he was put on the table by his own people, and now the most important bargaining chip, the ancient city map, was also taken away by Gu Hong.

Wu Xiong raised his head and engraved Gu Hong's figure in his mind, but he didn't dare to shed any hatred, for fear that Gu Hong would choose to cut the grass and eradicate the roots after he noticed it.

I saw Wu Xiong salute Gu Hong with a calm face:

"I hope that Guhong's predecessors can look at the feelings above, can help them, help them in the next hand, and they will be grateful. ”
