Chapter XXVII
The door slowly opened, and Elder Zhao and the black and white envoy also consumed a lot of true qi, and the group recovered on the ground for a while and entered the door.
In front of everyone is a large high platform, in the middle of which is a huge incense burner, and ascends the steps to the high platform, in front of which is a majestic hall, in which many huge pillars support the dome, and people seem to be in the palace.
"It looks a little more spacious here, and it's not what we're looking for. Zhu Zixin pursed his lips.
"There's no cave here. "Elder Zhao is not in a hurry.
Walking to the main hall, there is a strange circular pattern on the ground, and there are four beast-shaped stone statues gathered together in the circle, with different expressions and mysterious atmosphere.
Elder Zhao stepped forward, took out the porcelain vase again, and dripped blood on the four stone statues.
The four stone statues seemed to be alive, slowly devouring the blood.
After a few moments, the four stone statues moved in all directions, revealing a large hole in the ground.
"Go down. ”
Elder Zhao ordered Ruan Ruan and a few people.
Ruan Ruan pretended to be very reluctant and jumped into the hole, and Zhu Zixin and Qiu Meili also jumped down.
The wind was gusting in his ears, and he was running his true qi in the air, only to see that there were stone walls on both sides, which were extremely smooth, like a deep well.
"Poof. ”
The body fell into the water, and in front of him was a huge cave, and several people were in a small lake. Fortunately, it was very close to the shore, and several people swam to the shore and dried their clothes with real qi.
Several people were inexplicable, what was Elder Zhao's purpose in letting them come down.
From a distance, I heard Elder Zhao's voice coming from above, "There is movement below. ”
Ruan Ruan shouted loudly: "No. ”
A rope ladder hung down from above, and Elder Zhao and the three of them climbed down the rope ladder.
Zhu Zixin said angrily: "Since there is a rope, why let us jump down." ”
Elder Zhao sneered, "It's just to test you, if you cooperate, I won't be embarrassed." ”
"What the hell is this place, what are we looking for? Ruan Ruan asked.
"There is a precious treasure hidden here that we haven't found for years. Not only that, but he also lost a lot of disciples here. Elder Zhao's face was gloomy.
Several people walked down the cave in front of them, and the front branch into three branches.
"Then what should I do now?" Ruan Ruan looked at Elder Zhao.
Elder Zhao also hesitated, frowned, and said, "We have all explored these three paths, but none of the people who went in came out, so I don't know which one to take." ”
"Then pick any one. Ruan said lightly.
Elder Zhao exchanged glances with the black and white envoy, and said slowly: "The six of us are divided into three groups, I will walk on the left with you, the black envoy and the nerd will walk in the middle, and the white envoy and the drunkard will walk on the right. ”
Zhu Zixin paused for a moment, and said unconvinced: "Who is the idiot?"
The Black Envoy grinned, "That's you." ”
Zhu Zixin looked at Ruan Ruan, who quietly stretched out his palm to him and gestured, meaning to act at the opportunity.
Qiu Meili said lazily: "That nerd is a broom star, be careful with him." ”
The black envoy was stunned when he heard this, "Is it really such an evil sect?"
The white envoy was a little impatient and urged: "Let's go, there is a lot of nonsense." ”
Elder Zhao pointed at Ruan Ruan, "Let's go." ”
The three groups of people entered the three forks in the road according to the left, center and right.
Ruan Ruan walked in front, and Elder Zhao followed two or three feet away from him. Ruan Ruan secretly laughed at the old fox for being so cowardly, deliberately fast and slow, and the harmful Elder Zhao was blowing his beard and glaring at the back, but he was helpless.
After walking for a while, the more you walk, the hotter it gets, this is deep underground, and it is strange that there is such a climate.
Several fiery red figures appeared not far away, and the two were surprised, only to find that it was countless red ants gnawing on the corpses.
"It's a fire ant!"
Elder Zhao exclaimed.
Ruan Ruan saw thousands of fiery red ants rushing towards them, and those red figures just now were formed by these ants attached to the corpse.
These fiery red ants are much larger than ordinary ants, and they survive in the underground magma all year round, and their vitality is extremely tenacious.
Elder Zhao's face turned pale, and he used his true qi to shoot towards the ant colony, and many ants were knocked away, but soon they continued to swarm again.
Elder Zhao gritted his teeth and took out a sigil from his pocket, and with words in his mouth, he formed a wall of ice in front of him.
The fire ants were kept out of the ice wall and couldn't rush for a while.
Ruan Ruan looked at it and sighed secretly in his heart, this old guy still has some means, but just defending like this, how can the road ahead pass.
Fire ants gnaw on the ice wall, making a rustling sound. Seeing that the ice wall was being thinned little by little, Elder Zhao's face became more and more ugly.
Ruan Ruan pulled out the Frost Whisper Sword and ran the Qingming Xiaoling, transforming the true qi in his body into an ice attribute. This is also the harvest of Ruan Ruan's recent practice, Qingming Xiaoling can transform the true qi in the body into various attributes. This is not only the wonder of this exercise, but also the fact that after the formation of Ruan Ruan's golden pill, his perception of all things in heaven and earth has become more affinity, and it is only a simulation at present, and has not yet reached a real transformation.
It is more than enough to deal with these ants in front of you.
Ruan Ruan's soft sword flashed, stabbing or cutting or picking, passing through the bodies of the fire ants, and the cold ice true qi destroyed the vitality of the fire ants from the inside, which was the nemesis of the fire ants.
Elder Zhao saw that his sword was like rain, and he couldn't help but admire his exquisite swordsmanship. He was even more glad that he was able to kill fire ants.
Ruan Ruan didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't dare to expose his strength, but he just gave full play to the Yu family's swordsmanship, but with the death of the fire ants one by one, his swordsmanship had a lot of insight.
In a short time, a thick layer of ant corpses was laid on the ground. With the rise of Ruan's soft killing, the sword flowers fluttered, and the fire ants fell in pieces.
Finally, the fire ant colony was wiped out. Elder Zhao's face twitched, "Xiaoyou is really good, I almost underestimated you." ”
Ruan Ruan's long sword was on the ground, panting, "I'm tired to death, if it weren't for my family's ant exterminating sword technique, I might not have escaped this catastrophe today." ”
"Ant Extermination Sword Technique?" Elder Zhao was skeptical.
Ruan Ruan coughed a few times and bent down, "There are often insects in my hometown, so I have practiced this ant extermination sword technique since I was a child, and it is the most effective to deal with ant insects." ”
Stepping on a thick layer of fire ant carcasses, the two continued on their way.
Zhu Zixin and the black envoy entered the middle passage.
The black envoy's sword hung low, and his nervousness could be felt from the hand in which he held the sword.
Zhu Zixin muttered in private, "Why are you so cowardly, why do you come out, it's better to hide in the door and enjoy the blessings." ”
With a swing of his sword, the black envoy slashed past him, leaving a sword mark on the ground.
Zhu Zixin was startled, put on a pose, and shouted at the black envoy, "Are you going to fight?"
The black envoy didn't answer, and motioned for him to walk quickly, Zhu Zixin glared at him, kicked a stone with hatred under his feet, kicked a stone into the air, and rolled far into the passage ahead.
There was a rustling sound from the passage, Zhu Zixin pricked up his ears and whispered to the black envoy behind him, "Did you hear it?" ”
The Black Envoy nervously grasped the sword in his hand and tried to look ahead.
"It's ......"
Zhu Zixin turned around and ran back, but the black envoy was caught off guard and collided with him.
He was about to lose his temper when he saw something rushing in front of him, his mouth opened wide, and he couldn't make a sound in horror.
Mouse.
A large swarm of rats.
Each of these rats was huge, the size of a puppy, and there were hundreds of them.
In this narrow passage, this group of rats is no less than an army of horses. A pair of blood-red eyes, like soul seducers from hell, stared at the two of them, sharp teeth, like a life-threatening scythe, ready to harvest blood at any time.
The black envoy reacted, and hurriedly took out a piece of paper and pasted it on his leg. It was the "Wind Talisman" that could increase the speed of movement, and he was good at escaping for his life, and at this time, his short and fat body was like a barrel with wheels, and he fled backwards with a grunt.
Zhu Zixin scolded secretly, although he was a little flustered, he quickly calmed down. It's just some mice, can you still stump yourself, but you are also a congenital master.
Carrying the Immortal Secret Technique, the true qi surrounds the whole body, and the light of the Cuiwei Sword in his hand shines. Raising his hand, he stabbed at the nearest mouse, hitting the rat in the neck, and with a twist of the tip of the sword, the ugly rat's head snapped off and spurted out a cavity of black blood.
With a successful sword, Zhu Zixin's heart was determined, and the sword light shimmered, and he fought with the rats. Don't forget to greet the black envoy, "Black fat man, come and help." ”
The black envoy had already run out of dozens of feet, and when he turned around, he saw that Zhu Zixin was fighting with the rats, and he faintly had the upper hand. Hearing Zhu Zixin call him, he turned around and joined the battle.
The two of them chopped and chopped in the middle of the rat colony, and killed more than a dozen rats in a short time.
These rats are not afraid of death, and constantly besiege the two.
The clothes on the Black Envoy's body were splattered with a lot of blood, most of which were rat blood. He slaughtered so vigorously that even though there were many colors on his body, he still snorted and drank in his mouth, and his long sword kept beckoning to the rats, completely forgetting his cowardice in escaping.
Zhu Zixin was much calmer, the rat couldn't break his protective true qi at all, so he was not injured, and his body was clean, not as embarrassed as the black envoy. His subordinates didn't stop, but he was puzzled in his heart, this black fat man was so timid at first, but at this time, he was suddenly brave, it was because of the "rat crazy".
At this time, Qiu Meili and the white envoy also encountered a group of difficult monsters, one by one as many as a fist-sized mosquito, there were hundreds, and surrounded the two of them.
The folding fan made by the white envoy is made of fine iron, and the fan surface is woven with steel wire as thin as a hair. The fan unfolded, the edge was as sharp as a knife blade, and in the middle of the dance, several mosquitoes were cut open, and their limbs flew sideways.
Qiu Meili raised his head and drank a sip of wine, spraying at the place where the mosquitoes are dense, containing true qi, every time he vomited, there were large mosquitoes falling, and the speed of killing mosquitoes was faster than that of the white envoy.
Although there is no communication between the two, there is a tacit understanding. Seeing fewer and fewer mosquitoes, the speed of the two men did not slow down, and the mosquitoes in the entire passage were completely emptied in a moment.
