Chapter Eighty-Four: Heaven in the Mirror

Liang Yu tugged at the rope tied around Meng Xianhan's waist, while Long Jiao and Liang Yu looked around back to back, and the three of them were actually crowded into a slightly damp cave at this time!

The depths of the cave were pitch black, and from time to time there was a gust of wind like ghosts crying wolf-like howls, the surface of the stones on the cave wall was rusty, and there were still a few patches of rust-red moss growing in the cracks of the stones, and there was a pungent sour smell in the air...

"Where is this?" Liang Yu asked in a cold voice, "Didn't you say that the tunnel leads to the Zou County Mansion?"

Meng Xianhan obviously didn't expect such a change, he hesitated for a long time before he said: "The villain has walked through this tunnel twice before, and he has never been here..."

Long Jiao said behind them, "Could it be that you will take the wrong fork?"

Liang Yu looked at the outside of the cave and said: "When I was in the pavilion just now, it was already nightfall, but you can see that it was daytime outside the cave! Even if you go on a bad road, there shouldn't be such a difference in the sky! Forget it, go out and have a look!"

As Liang Yu said, the sky outside the cave was bright, and when they came out of the cave, they found that the color of the sky was also reddish, with wisps of faint red clouds floating on it, and even the sun was obviously flushed.

They looked around and found themselves in a valley surrounded by mountains, where the branches and leaves of the flowers and trees were shades of red, and the damp air was filled with a pungent sour smell that was stronger than that of the cave.

As far as the eye could see, the surrounding mountains surrounded the valley so tightly that there was no way out of the valley as far as the eye could see, and under a large tree opposite the three of them was a small house made of stones.

When they were still a few steps away from the stone house, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy came out of it, and when the young man saw Liang Yu and them, he skillfully slapped a Taoist chief and said, "A few people must have been framed by someone to get to this ghost place?"

Liang Yu tugged at the rope in his hand and said to the young man: "If you want to talk about framing, it is this big man who has harmed us... Excuse me, little friend, where is this?"

"You call me Xiaoyou?" The young man looked at Liang Yu for a moment, then at the wide robe on his body, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It seems that I'm really small enough now... I don't know where this is, but based on my experience in the last two years here, I'm going to call it the Sky in the Mirror!"

Liang Yu said curiously: "What is the sky in the mirror? What's your name, little friend?"

The young man was about to speak, when he suddenly looked up and said, "You don't look like bad people, let me go in and say, it will rain soon, the rain in this place is very strong, it can corrode everything, even stubborn stones, it will be rusted." ”

Long Jiao said curiously: "You said that this rain can corrode everything, why are there still so many plants and trees?"

The young man smiled: "You guys didn't look carefully when you first arrived, those are ordinary grass and trees, the red grass everywhere is a stream of crumbs, as for those trees... In fact, they are all corroded mountains and rocks over the years! In the whole valley, only the one in front of my house is called a tree!"

As soon as Liang Yu and Long Jiao said this, they looked carefully at everything around them, and found that what the young man said was the truth, and the big tree in front of his house, although it was also full of red leaves, had the characteristics of all plants, and in addition, the tree was surrounded by a layer of faint red light.

"My name is Wu Gongxian, come in and sit," the young man said, and went into the stone house.

Although the space in the stone house is not large, it is more spacious than the previous cave entrance, and after a few people sat on the ground, Wu Gongxian continued: "The sun rises in the west and sets in the east, which is exactly the opposite of the outside world like a mirror image, so I call it the sky in the mirror!"

As soon as Liang Yu and the three of them heard this, they all looked outside, it was already raining heavily, but there were still a few rain clouds in the air, and the sun that was just in the middle of the sky really moved to the east!

Wu Gongxian said helplessly: "When I first came here, I didn't feel any inconvenience, but after a long time, I realized that I had gradually regained my youth... You look like a teenager, but in fact I'm already an old man!"

"Huh?!" the three exclaimed again.

Wu Gongxian nodded and said: "Extrapolated, after a day here, things here will be set back by a month! I believe you can also see that I was also a cultivator, but in a flash, two years have passed, and I have regressed nearly sixty years of cultivation, and at this time I am no different from ordinary people..."

Long Jiao was surprised, and asked: "This place is so weird, the grass and trees don't grow, aren't you going to starve to death in the past two years?"

Wu Gongxian pointed out the door and said, "It's all up to my wishful treasure tree... This tree can shelter from the wind and rain, water and fire are inviolated, the poison is removed, it blooms in three days, and bears fruit in six days, and I have lived until now by that fruit!"

Meng Xianhan said with some disappointment: "This is also worthy of being called the Wishful Treasure Tree?"

Liang Yu glanced at him and said, "In such a desperate situation, being able to maintain one's life is enough to call it wishful..."

Long Jiao was a little anxious and said, "How did you get here? After living here for two years, you don't have any thoughts of going out?"

Wu Gongxian pointed to the entrance of the cave where Liang Yu and the others first came and said, "There is nowhere to go in this valley except for that cave, and there is a great terror hidden in that cave, even when I am in the heyday of my cultivation, I am helpless... I almost lost my life!"

Liang Yu asked, "Little friend... Belch... No, senior, forgive me for taking the liberty of cultivating before you come here?"

When Wu Gongxian heard him ask about this time, his face couldn't help but pass a trace of pride, and then he pretended to be indifferent and said: "The old decay has limited understanding, and after cultivating for more than sixty years, he has just reached the realm of refining the qi and transforming the gods, probably in the early stage of refining the qi and transforming the gods!"

Long Jiao couldn't help but smile and buried her face between her arms, while Liang Yu nodded politely: "Cultivation is not easy, just ask how many people in the world have cultivated for a lifetime, and they have only built the foundation Peiyuan..."

Wu Gongxian was very satisfied with Liang Yu's answer, and then asked Liang Yu with a high-ranking attitude: "Seeing that the three of you are also cultivators, you are young, I am afraid there is still a long way to go, and you must not force it in your cultivation, so as not to go mad!"

"Hehe... What the seniors said is very true!" Liang Yu said, suddenly stood up and walked to the door, "It seems that we can't delay any longer, if we live here for two years like our predecessors, not to mention cultivation, I'm afraid that I will become a baby in swaddling clothes in less than a year!"

Long Jiao suddenly realized: "Senior brother, you are right, we still have to go back as soon as possible!" she said that she had to rush out of the stone room first.

Wu Gongxian hurriedly stopped Long Jiao and said, "Little girl, where are you going? The acid rain outside can corrode everything! If you want to go out, you have to wait for the rain to stop!

After Wu Gongxian finished speaking, he took out a yellow and clear fruit from his arms and threw it out of the door, after the fruit flew out, it immediately withered when it rained, and wisps of green smoke came out!

Long Jiao looked stunned, Liang Yu looked at her and Meng Xianhan, nodded and said, "In this way, according to what the predecessors said, wait for the rain to stop before going!"

Wu Gongxian was puzzled: "Where are you going? I also tried to climb the mountain to get out, but those mountain tops are all enchanted, and I can't cross it! It seems that they forced me into the cave. ”

Liang Yu saw that the rain was a little smaller, and finally saw some hope, so he patiently asked Wu Gongxian, "What is the great terror you just said?"

Wu Gongxian's mood was obviously a little nervous, and said: "It's some monster with many eyes and legs! I can't fight it..."

Long Jiao smiled and asked, "Are you a master of refining qi and transforming gods, not even you?"

Wu Gongxian shook his head and said, "The so-called Dao is one foot high, and the demon is one foot high... And there's more than one monster..."

"Alright!" Liang Yu stretched his waist and said, "The rain has stopped! Let's go out and have a look!"

After an acid rain, the sour smell outside the stone house became even stronger, and Liang Yu and the others really didn't want to stay here for a long time, so they walked a few steps quickly and rushed to the cave.

Liang Yu beckoned to the direction of the stone house at the entrance of the cave and said, "Senior, are you willing to go with me?"

Wu Gongxian said with some horror: "Don't go! That monster is really fierce! You are still young, and you are definitely not its opponent!"

Long Jiao put her hands to her lips and shouted, "I'm afraid you can't afford to delay at your age!

Wu Gongxian struggled at the door of the stone room for a while before he agreed: "You wait for me, I'll come right away!" After speaking, he beckoned, and the wishful treasure tree that the two of them hugged turned into a red light and drilled into his cuffs!

Long Jiao quipped: "At your current age, I'm afraid you won't survive for half a year... Just come with us!"

Wu Gongxian smiled: "What the little girl said is reasonable... Just don't think I'm a burden!"

Liang Yu patted Meng Xianhan and said to Wu Gongxian: "Wait a minute, if you are really in danger, this person may not be able to help much..."

Meng Xianhan said with an embarrassed face: "If the little gentleman needs the villain's service, just return the mace to me!

"Forget it..."Liang Yu said slowly: "Give you the mace, I'm afraid I don't know when I will be attacked by you again!

As they walked farther and farther into the cave, the space in the cave became more and more spacious, and the sour smell around them became much lighter, and when the sour smell disappeared completely, there was a fishy smell wafting from the depths of the cave...

"Smell this, aren't we almost there?" Liang Yu asked.

Wu Gongxian said, "Uh... Maybe... Decay..."

"Click..."

"What is it?" Meng Xianhan exclaimed, Long Jiao held on to the candlestick and looked over, but it was Meng Xianhan who had just kicked a skull to the side, and looking at the skeleton, there were still seven or eight corpses over there!

Liang Yu asked Wu Gongxian again: "Someone has been here before?"

Wu Gongxian still said hesitantly: "There have been... There were..."

"Then why didn't you say it just now?" Long Jiao said with some dissatisfaction, "They are all from the Xuanmen?"

Wu Gongxian nodded and said, "Yes... But they can't beat that monster... And..."Before he finished speaking, Liang Yu's expression suddenly froze, only to hear a sudden sound of rustling from the deeper part of the cave...
