It is a very steep slope to go down, so that Xu Mo can slide down very easily and quickly, but when he lands, it is only a slight vibration, almost no sound, from the touch of the ground, it must be a shock-absorbing material, which not only ensures that people will not be injured after landing, but also reduces the danger of being found by people outside when hearing the sound, from this point of view, it shows that the design of the secret passage is very careful.

When I landed, the floor above was closed, but it was not dark in front of me, because on the walls on either side of the rectangular aisle in front of me, there were four irregularly glowing gems, emitting a moonlight that was enough to see the surroundings.

Xu Mo looked down and saw that the ground was covered with a very fine layer of dust, and only his own footprints under his feet showed that no one had been here recently, or even for a long time.

Walking forward, the end of the aisle was blocked by a thick stone door that was concealed, and eight big characters were written on the stone door: Descendants of the Wang family, don't cultivate immortals!

These eight characters were like knives, as if they were engraved on them, and the ink was extremely heavy, the structure was crazy, and a feeling of resentment, despair and remorse almost flew out of the words, Xu Mo guessed that the person who wrote the words was probably the patriarch who caused the fall of the Wang clan two hundred years ago.

The stone door was extremely heavy, and it took him five pauses to push open a slightly wider gap that allowed him to pass through, and it was conceivable that when there were pursuers behind him, closing it completely would certainly have a good deterrent effect.

Behind the door, there is a downward slope, compared with the aisle just now, it is much more wide, the slope is not very steep, walking down slowly, you can feel the air moistened a lot, so that his mood can not help but relax a little.

The ramp is more than 50 meters long, and below it are two vermilion iron gates that are 10 meters high, as if the main courtyard is behind it.

The door was not locked, Xu Mo observed it carefully, and with a little force, he actually pushed it open.

As soon as the door was opened, a stream of fresh water vapor mixed with the soil of the roots of the tree rushed to the face, and it seemed to be an underground valley in front of me, with a wide area and a wide range of eyes, and as far as the eye could see, there were seven or eight pools of different sizes, in which I did not know what plants or creatures grew, emitting a luminous light, as if reflecting seven or eight moons;

Above are the roots of the trees that are intertwined and coiled as a roof, they are not entangled, but very regular, they look like runes, Xu Mo quickly thought that they should be the roots of the peach tree above, maybe they are arranged into a magic circle, so regular;

Not all roots are coiled on top, but occasionally one or several bunches of roots grow downwards and take root underneath, growing into a very thick mass that looks like a supporting pillar;

Under the light of the water, you can see that the distance on the left and right sides is jagged, uneven, like continuous mountain peaks;

The glowing pools, the occasional sound of falling downholes, and the occasional small flowers popping up from the roots make this underground valley peaceful, like a fairy tale.

Xu Mo didn't dare to take it lightly, just looked at the road under his feet and walked slowly, and when he approached a waterhole, he saw a circle of blue or purple mushrooms growing on the water's edge, which turned out to be a second-grade elixir Shining Spirit Mushroom!

Seeing them, Xu Mo not only didn't think about picking them in the past, but moved farther away from them, because where there are shining mushrooms, there must be blunt-footed blackheads!

The blackhead is a beetle that feeds on the Shining Mushroom and is extremely poisonous, as long as the skin is touched by it, or the poisonous gas it releases, it will be poisoned!

Once poisoned, only its eggs can be cured, and if it happens that it does not lay eggs, or if it takes more than three quarters of an hour, it is basically certain to die!

However, although the blunt-footed blackhead is poisonous, its character is relatively mild, as long as it does not touch it, it will not hurt people, and there are so many flashing mushrooms in front of you, the big ones are the size of the mouth of the bowl, indicating that its year is more than 500 years, if you can't restrain your greed, I'm afraid you can only stay as fertilizer!

Of course, if the other party knows how to pick, he also has tools at hand, but it takes some effort to pick them, and he can buy more time to escape, and cultivating so many elixirs is also a huge wealth, which can be described as a triple win for the Wang family.

Xu Mo observed carefully for a while, and saw a round-headed and round-capped insect with two stone-like blocks under a purple Shining Spirit Mushroom, which was a blunt-footed black head, and confirmed his judgment, and then saw a few blue-green particles on a slightly smaller Shining Spirit Mushroom, and after recognizing them as blunt-headed black-footed eggs, he walked over lightly and passed through the waterhole without danger.

Next, he found Ma Huangsha, four chela worms, rotten lotus and seven or eight kinds of elixirs that he couldn't recognize, and he stayed away after seeing them, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble - this time, he was mainly exploring the way, looking for a way to open the Wang family tree, as for these elixirs, they would not run away by themselves if they were placed here, and they could come and pick them when necessary.

Half an hour later, he arrived at a cliff that almost went straight up and down, under the cliff was a deep-looking waterhole, and then an underground river, it seemed that he could escape along the river by jumping down, but after seeing Wang's previous arrangement, he believed that jumping down might not have a good end!

He chopped a few stones with a woodcutter and threw them down, and at first there was no reaction to a few pieces, but as he continued to throw them down, the pool at the bottom suddenly churned like a pot, and then suddenly a bucket-thick three-headed snake emerged from the water!

Xu Mo was shocked in his heart, his soul was about to be frightened, he quickly turned over and jumped behind, retreated far away, and was careful and guarded, until he found that it had not climbed the cliff, he was relieved, but he couldn't help but wonder, could it be that this road was not the right escape route for the Wang clan, or was this snake domesticated by them and would not attack the Wang clan?

Wang's tunnel, it's a trap step by step!

At this time, he looked up, but saw a black flat boat hanging above, and a thick iron cable extending down the underground river, and suddenly realized that this was the right way to pass!

This method seems to work, but Xu Mo intends to stop there, first, he doesn't know if it will alarm the three-headed snake, he is not from the Wang family, if he is chased by it, it will be terrifying to think about!

Second, he found that Wang's secret passage project was very huge, and if it was only used as an escape route, it would be a bit wasteful, and maybe there would be another one?

If there really is such a secret passage, it is likely that some important things of the Wang family are hidden there......

In short, if he continues to go down now, the good result is to go out smoothly, and if he can't open the tin box after he goes out, won't he have to come down and continue to look for clues? In this case, it is better to go back the same way, at least the back road has been walked once, where there is danger, already know in his heart, naturally it is safer.

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

At this time, in the small courtyard of Taolin, the conversation between Kou Niang and Feng Xiafei continued.

Feng Xiafei never thought that talking for a long time would be so tiring!

She used to follow her father to walk the rivers and lakes, although she had seen more, but not much, at this time she thought that no one would speak......

After talking about the big fish she encountered while crossing the river, she licked the corners of her dry mouth, looked into the house, and asked, "What is the Xu Dong family doing?

Kou Niang didn't reply and said, "Don't worry about him, the minister said that he would call me if there was something." ”

As she spoke, she also saw Feng Xiafei licking her lips and said, "Are you thirsty?" I'll pour you water. ”

After speaking, she got up and poured a large bowl of water and handed it to Feng Xiafei's hand.

After taking the water, she couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, thinking about it, she found that Kou Niang was really a very simple person, and thought that Kou Niang said that she had been living in the peach forest, and she was very interested in anything she said, she couldn't help but sympathize, so after drinking the water, when Kou Niang asked her to continue to talk about what she had seen and heard, she didn't feel how difficult it was......
