[852] A ray of light
Under the night wind, Yingzhao's mane shook and swayed in the wind.
"Bringing the fungus man, although it was my own idea, it has been reported to the Yuque Palace. After a pause, Ying Zhao said to Xingtian again: "The Yuque Palace has already agreed to this proposal, you can take this fungus man into the Yellow Spring together." ”。
Xing Tian nodded his head without thinking about it this time, such a little ghost, it doesn't hurt to bring it. What's more, although the person with this fungus has no combat effectiveness, but he can contact Xiao Shizhu faster, Xingtian is of course willing, and even can't ask for it.
"Little Wu, come here. Xing Tian beckoned to the fungus man, and turned his head to look at the headless ghost sitting under the ring corridor on the other side.
This headless ghost is stronger than Xingtian, but less than Xingtian. Seeing that Xingtian was looking at him, and after calling his name again, he put down the dishes and chopsticks and stood up, pulled his legs and flew to Xingtian's side to stand still, and raised his hand to wipe the oil stains on the corner of his mouth.
"This fungus man has been handed over to you to protect, don't let him have any accidents, and don't lose her. Xingtian solemnly explained to the headless ghost.
"No. The headless ghost named Xiao Wu crouched down, reached out, and let the fungus man jump onto his thick palm, and put the fungus man firmly on his shoulder.
"Great. At this moment, Ying Zhao's adjutant Yu Xuan ran in in a hurry, and ran straight to Ying Zhao's side, and before he could even breathe, he hurriedly muttered in Ying Zhao's ear.
The mountain wind was blowing, Yu Xuan's voice was laughing again, and only Ying Zhao could hear what he said. The surrounding ghosts saw that Ying Zhao didn't listen to a word, so they frowned tightly and widened their eyes. When the surprise appeared in his eyes, the pupils trembled slightly, and he could see a little panic mixed with it.
can be seen that something seems to have happened suddenly and caught Ying Zhao off guard.
It wasn't until Yu Xuan finished saying everything that Ying Zhao settled down and said to the disciples of Su Tianju behind him: "Disciples of Su Tianju, you stay here, and everything is arranged by General Xingtian." ”。
"Yingzhao, do you need any help?" Xing Tiancai hurriedly asked, thinking about whether there was another enemy attacking the island.
"No need, General Xingtian, just get ready to enter the Yellow Springs. is entangled in official business, so Yingzhao will leave first and not bother. Ying Zhao hurriedly saluted, turned around and left with Yu Xuan.
Everyone can see that Yingzhao seems to have encountered some thorny problems. But he didn't say it, and the Xingtian didn't want to ask too much. After seeing him leave, Xing Tian went to greet the Su Tianju disciple.
After the two ghosts of Ying Zhao and Yu Xuan walked quickly one after the other, and after walking out of the military yamen, Ying Zhao looked around at no one, his face was anxious again, and he asked Yu Xuan in a hurry, "What's the matter? Why is Lord Weng about to arrive at the southern port? Didn't Fan Jinhong just let the fungus people report the day before yesterday, and they won't arrive until the day after tomorrow?"
It was this matter that Yu Xuan gave Ying Zhao in return, and Xiao Lingling was already about to arrive on the island. However, Xiao Shizhu has not returned.
"Today's reward for Fan Jinhong is that the owner of Yuque Weng suddenly asked the crew to speed up, shortening the travel time. Yu Xuan also had the word "anxious" written on his face, his brows were always locked, hot sweat broke out on his forehead, and beads of sweat the size of beans quickly slid down his cheeks.
"My niece is still so unexpected. The corners of Ying Zhao's anxious eyes instantly became bloodshot, and the wind was under his feet, and he walked faster and more urgently.
Then seeing Ji Kang coming towards him, Ying Zhao walked up and asked urgently: "Have you heard?
"I heard. That Ji Kang was also full of anxious looks on his facial features, and his face was full of hot sweat, dripping down.
He walked side by side with Ying Zhaoyu Hyun and hurried down the mountain, then said, "I have sent several warships to the sea to prepare for them, and I hope they will slow down the pace of the lord a little." ”。
They all knew that Xiao Lingling's acceleration was because she missed her father Xiao Shizhu. This Weng master can't wait to see Xiao Shizhu.
Of course, it is also to confirm whether Xiao Shizhu is on the island.
Moreover, Xiao Fuling's mission here is to take Xiao Shizhu back to Yuque City. But now Xiao Shizhu has not yet returned from the Yellow Spring, and Xiao Shizhu can come back from the Yellow Spring at the earliest, tonight and every day at the latest. And this secret plan has been highly classified from planning to execution, and it is a Class A military operation of the Nine Shadows Kingdom. Even if Xiao Fuling is the owner of the Weng, then without Xiao Shizhu's permission, all the participants must keep it absolutely confidential from the Weng master.
But if Xiao Fuling comes to Xiaoyu Mountain City at this time, and he can't see Xiao Shizhu, then he will be in trouble.
Ying recruited them to find a way to keep Xiao Fuling from approaching Xiaoyu Mountain City for the time being.
"Dashuai, let's lie to her. He didn't go far, Ji Kang took the lead in thinking of a solution, and blurted out: "Let's just say that Xiaoyu Mountain City is busy with the matter of captives and co-optation at this time, and the lord has an order to let the lord rest in the port for a day or two." Wait for things to settle down here, and then take her over. For her safety, the owner should be honest enough to stay in the harbor for a day. ”。
"Hehe, it's not that simple. This niece of mine has never been afraid of danger, and she has the same virtue as my eldest brother. Forget it, you still stay and preside over the affairs of the city, and I will go to the southern port myself. Ying Zhao suddenly stopped, and after a moment of silence, he said thoughtfully: "But Ji Kang, you reminded me." If I had been with her, she might not have been able to come for a while. The method can also be used as said, but it can't be said that Xiaoyushan is collecting prisoners, and it is said that she should do something in the port. ”。
"Do something?" Ji Kang and Yu Hyun asked in unison.
"I haven't thought about it yet, but if I give her a high-end and high-end looking task, my niece will complete the task and come back. Ying Zhao said, spread his wings and waved, and the yin wind suddenly appeared, blowing the robes of Yu Xuan and Ji Kang around him, and the cuffs swayed and hunted.
Then Yingzhao took off into the air with four hooves, waved his wings and flew into the starry night sky, and flew towards the south of Shuoyue Island.......
Yellow Springs, in the secret passage underground.
The Huangquan ghost soldiers, who had replenished sufficient water sources in the underground river and had also rested, continued to move towards the north as Xiao Shizhu continued to advance.
The army marched through the tunnels, the sound of footsteps echoing in the tunnels, and the torches continued to smoke the walls and ceilings of the caves, roasting them to pitch black.
The army, which had eaten and drunk enough and had rested enough, was full of strength, and the marching speed was naturally twice as fast as before.
But Xiao Shizhu, who has always been at the forefront, always controls the rhythm of his footsteps and does not dare to let the army accelerate again.
There was still a long way to go, and not only that, but once they got out of the exit, they had no idea what problems and unknown dangers they would encounter. You have to keep some strength up to deal with all the troubles that may arise ahead.
Therefore, Xiao Shizhu did not dare to go fast, but he also couldn't go slowly. According to their previous plan, in a few hours, the passage connecting the southern part of Yellow Spring to the Netherworld would open again. They had to get to the side of the passage on time and enter the passage on time.
"Father-in-law. Walking a few steps quickly, Shi Cianming, who had caught up, walked side by side with Xiao Shizhu, and hurriedly told Xiao Shizhu the news from the rear: "Walking at the end of the line, we have made a new discovery for Yingying, the national teacher behind our palace." According to her, there were traces of the activation of the mechanism as we walked through the passage. She studied it for a while, and Pai Taifeng caught up and told you the results of her research. ”。
As he spoke, Tai Feng also caught up from behind Xiao Shizhu.
"What did the national teacher Yingying find?" Xiao Shizhu immediately asked.
"The forbidden sigils carved into the stone walls and cave roofs will transform into a kind of destruction sigil shortly after we pass through. Within three days, this secret passage will be completely destroyed. Tai Feng wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and after taking a breath, he said to Xiao Shizhu again: "It is said that she discovered these clues when we crossed the underground river. ”。
When the words landed, Xiao Shizhu remembered the forbidden talisman seal that lit up on the door after he touched the door with his hand.
It seems that at that time, he had already opened all the self-destruct devices in this secret passage.
"Tai Feng, tell the national teacher Ying Ying to write down this kind of talisman ban, and it is best to study the principle of their original works. Maybe in the future, when we get to the Netherworld, we can still use these talismans to get them. After thinking for a while, Xiao Shizhu turned his head to Tai Feng beside him and ordered: "But don't fall too far behind because of this." ”。
"No. Tai Feng answered, turned and walked towards the way he came.
"Father-in-law, what's the use of this?" Shi Cassia asked stupidly.
"You'll find out later. Xiao Shizhu smiled meaningfully and said no more.
They walked forward for a long time, and suddenly saw the female Lu who was exploring the way in front with the ghost soldiers, and led the troops back to Xiao Shizhu's body. According to this, it is a maximum of five or six miles. ”。
"Really?" Xiao Shizhu also became excited, and when he raised his hand to order the army behind him to stop, he also shouted, "Rest in place for a while." ”。
"Shi Cassia Ming, I'll go up and take a look, and the female Lu will stay to take care of the army. Just as the echo echoed in the secret passage, Xiao Shizhu called out to Shi Cassia and rushed towards the path where the female leader had come.
For some reason, thoughts came flooding back, and there was only one thought left in Xiao Shizhu's mind: if he can go home soon, he will be able to go home soon.
The Moon Destroying Sword came out of its sheath, and the Xuan Power was injected into it, and a white light suddenly lit up on the sword's body, cutting through the darkness in front of him.
At the moment when the light flashed, Xiao Shizhu was in a trance, and from the depths of the white light, he saw the strange flowers and herbs in the Juexiang Garden.
He used his Xuan power, lifted his breath and jumped forward on tiptoe, and immediately flew forward for several feet, leaving Shi Cassia far behind him.
Immediately after he turned a corner along the secret passage, Huo Ran stopped and stopped.
The right hand holding the Moon Destroying Sword trembled suddenly with excitement, and his ears were filled with the sound of whirring wind.
Shi Cianming, who had also caught up quickly, stood beside him, half-bent his knees, and after a few rough gasps, he also heard the whirring wind in his ears. When you look up and look ahead, you will be greeted by the coolness of the wind. The first thing that caught Shi Cassia Ming's eye was a straight and deep dark passage, completely different from the path he had walked before.
Not only are there no twists and turns, but there are also no arched double walls. The entire passage, except for the arched top, is a flat and smooth stone wall. Every few zhang, there are two stone carvings with human bodies and snake tails, standing opposite each other.
At the end of the passage, Cassia saw a ray of light, standing in the darkness. Looking closely, he could vaguely see that behind the glimmer of light, there was wind and sand flying. A lot of grains of sand, still not, poured in with the strong wind.
"Export, that's export. Shi Cianming's round eyes suddenly showed excitement.
