After learning that Zhong Zhuo and Zhong Min might still be alive, He Yi and Zhong Ci were also a lot more relieved.

Although the soul talisman technique is extremely damaging to oneself, as long as the soul power is not completely exhausted, it will not cause danger to one's life.

Even so, after all, it is a loss of one's soul, so it must be recuperated for a long period of time to nourish and recover.

......

The ice chamber used to store the corpses was almost completely sealed, and it was clear at a glance whether there was a way out.

He Yi walked back and forth in this pile of corpses slowly, and when he caught a man dressed as a civilian, he had to take a careful look at the back of the person's head for a while.

This scene fell in Zhong Ci's eyes, but it was all laughing, and the sad mood was also diluted a little: "What are you looking for?"

He Yi said casually: "When he was in Huyang, he promised a child to help him find his cousin. ”

Hearing him say this, Zhong Ci felt more and more funny: "Since you are looking for someone, what are you looking at without looking at the appearance, but staring at the back of the corpse's head?

"......" He Yi glanced at him helplessly, and said, "I don't know that child's cousin, but I heard that there is a white slender scar on the back of his head, so that's it." ”

“......”

Most of the corpses in this ice room were cultivators dressed in robes, and there weren't many short brown people, so they searched around like this, but they didn't find any useful clues.

Continuing uphill, there are still ice houses, about seven or eight places, and a large number of ice corpses are stored in them.

He Yi roughly estimated the number, just saying that the corpse of the monk was already nearly a thousand, even more than the number of inner disciples of the Qi Sect.

If all these corpses were manipulated by the snow ghosts and turned into "flying corpses", what kind of terrifying force would it be?

"These walking corpses are so numerous, sooner or later they will become a scourge! Zhong Ci's voice was cold, his face was like frost, and he held a torch from nowhere in his hand, clutching it tightly.

If there was a bucket of fire oil beside her, she would not hesitate to pour it on it, and then burn it all.

"I said, Miss, can you think before you do something? This is a secret room! Are you going to burn yourself to death? Find a way first!" He Yi said helplessly.

He thought differently from Zhong Ci, this corpse was nothing more than some tools, and if it was not manipulated by the wicked, there would be no danger at all.

Rather than taking the risk of scaring the snake and spending a lot of time burning the corpse, it is better to seize the time to find an exit and bring the news out so that more people can be spared.

...... ......

Continue through a few ice chambers and the ascent will come to an end.

A dead end, no exit.

This made He Yi very disappointed.

This is the only way out of the cave, and if it doesn't lead to the ground, it means that there is no way out of the cave on this side.

If it was a cultivator, he could naturally easily fly through the sky and leave the mirage clouds above the ice bridge, but for He Yi and Zhong Ci, who couldn't fly in the sky, this place would be an absolute place of death.

The two of them returned the same way, re-entered the bottom of the cliff cave, explored another straight passage, and soon came to the end again.

The passage was not far deep, and at the end of it was a small stone chamber with a stone bed, a stone bench, a wooden table, and a row of large wooden frames.

It seems to be for human habitation.

On the table and wooden shelves lay a few celadon jade vases, a few utensils, and even a secret book of exercises for practice.

He Yi's gaze swept over these items one by one, and finally stopped on the stone bed beside him.

On top of it lay a very shabby black robe, almost twisted into a ball, as if someone had discarded it there.

He walked over, picked up the corner of his robe, and carefully examined the black robe, only to see that there were many gaps in it, some were cut, some were burned, and even some vines were torn up in it.

He Yi immediately fell into deep thought.

A moment later, a black-robed figure with a face full of knife marks and vicious eyes suddenly appeared in his mind.

It turned out to be him?

At this point, He Yi finally determined the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes, who was the black-robed Immortal Venerable with Zhao Han outside Huyang City that day!

However, wasn't that black-robed Immortal Venerable a person who practiced Qi Sect? He Yi was secretly puzzled.

Moreover, according to Jiang Sheng, the identity and status of the black-robed Immortal Venerable in the Qi Cultivation Sect were also extremely high.

At first, He Yi was also worried that the black robe would truthfully spread the news of Huyang's change of ownership into the Qi Cultivation Sect, causing the Xianmen monks to besiege Huyang. But since the collapse of the Zhao family, the Qi Cultivation Sect was unexpected, and specially sent another inner disciple to Huyang to investigate the affairs of the Zhao family.

In other words, the news of Huyang City did not reach the Qi Cultivation Sect at all......

If you continue to speculate along this clue, the true identity of this black robe will become a mystery.

Perhaps, he is not a Qi Sect practitioner at all.

The most important thing is that the purpose of the black robe going to Huyang is to obtain the Yelang Heavenly Book, which has the power of "resurrecting the dead", and there are so many corpses of family monks hoarded around......

Although He Yi couldn't guess the true identity of the black-robed Immortal Venerable for a while, its ultimate goal was already clear.

He wanted to resurrect the bodies of these cultivators through the Book of Yelang Heaven......! Assemble an army of obedient deceased!

He Yi let go of his fingers pinching the corners of his clothes, and the black robe immediately fell to the ground again.

Things seem to be getting more and more complicated......

......

"He Yi! Look here, this is the waist card of the Qi Sect!" Zhong Ci rummaged on the wooden table for a while, but picked out a jade waist card.

The front book is "Lian Qi", and the back is engraved with the word "Hongling", which should be the name of the black-robed immortal.

She also knew something about the Qi Cultivation Sect, and after thinking about it for a while, she said to He Yi: "I remember that three years ago, the previous sect master of the Qi Cultivation Sect died violently for no reason. After that, his disciples, Hong Jing and Hong Ling, each held the inner gate forces and competed for the position of the sect master, and finally ended in Hong Jing's victory. As for Hongling, there has been no news, but I didn't expect to hide here!"

That Hong Jing and Hong Ling, originally born from the same root, are brothers, but for the position of a suzerain, they don't even care about brotherhood.

It is said that in the final battle, Hong Ling was attacked by an undercover agent arranged by Hong Jing in advance, so that his appearance was completely ruined and unrecognizable, so he was able to blend into the chaos, successfully escaped, and picked up his life.

Listen to the bells

Ci said this, and He Yisui thought of the black-robed Immortal Venerable's face full of scars......

You shouldn't be wrong.

The battle for the position of suzerain failed, and he was unwilling, so he wanted to use the ability of the snow ghost to collect a large number of corpses of monks and people, and then resurrect the corpses of these cultivators with the ability of Yelang Tianshu, forming an army of the dead with the power of immortal law, and counterattacking the Qi Sect for revenge......

He Yi quickly sorted out the clues in his mind, and the conspiracy behind the whole thing began to gradually become clear......

For the next half a day, He Yi and Zhong Ci searched repeatedly in this cliff cave, but did not find another exit.

And the two monks had never come out since they entered the cliff cave on the other side of the ice bridge, which couldn't help but make He Yi wonder if there were other exits in the cliff cave on the other side.

But they didn't dare to rush in.

After all, there is still a snow ghost sealed inside, with the current situation of He Yi and Zhong Ci, once they are discovered by the snow ghost, they are afraid that they will be drained of their souls on the spot and turned into two cold walking corpses.

As time passed, He Yi's face became more and more anxious.

After all, the two of them are just ** mortals, not like monks who can eat and drink, and not long after, Zhong Ci's stomach took the lead in making a "cooing" sound.

"Hungry?" He Yi glanced at Zhong Ci with a smile.

It is no wonder that it has been a whole day since yesterday afternoon when I was in a hurry, and I was ambushed by walking corpses in Lijia Village, and fought fiercely all night. Don't say it's Zhong Ci, even He Yi feels unbearable hunger and thirst.

Zhong Ciqiao's face flushed, and she hurriedly lowered her head and said, "I'm not hungry." But before he could finish speaking, his stomach rumbled again.

He Yi quipped: "Hungry is hungry, what is there to say? I'm hungry too, this is for you." ”

As he spoke, he took out something from his arms and threw it into Zhong Ci's hand, and took a look, but it was a clean white-flour steamed bun.

Seeing this, Zhong Ci's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help asking, "Where did you get the steamed buns?"

"Picked up from the ice room. ”

"Then why didn't you take it out earlier?"

"Uh...... Eat quickly, after eating, let's break into the cliff cave that sealed the snow ghost, and if we continue to consume it like this, we won't even have the strength to walk. He Yi said vaguely, and then took out half a piece of bread from his arms and gnawed it on his own.

The food was found in the arms of corpses in the ice chamber.

Although the monks could cut the grain without eating, the people could not.

In the Northland, when people go out, they generally hide the bags of dry food close to their bodies to prevent them from being frozen and difficult to eat.

Fortunately, the ice chamber was mixed with a few corpses of the people of the Northlands, otherwise, they would have really acted hungry.

Zhong Ci lowered his head and gently bit into the steamed bun, but it was still a little soft and warm, but the cold air in the ice room was cold and heartwarming, where could there be such a warm thing?

Xu He Yi hid this steamed bun close to his body early and took it out after warming it with his body temperature.

Thinking of this, Zhong Ci remembered all the previous misunderstandings, and suddenly felt an unspeakable sense of guilt in his heart.

But she didn't expect that under the seemingly indifferent appearance of this Taishou Lord, there was also a delicate and soft heart.
