Chapter 47: The Ancient Cave

The ancient and mysterious Luotu Mountain is located about forty miles southeast of Tianshui City, less than twenty miles away from the valley where the twelve female disciples of Ciyun Nunnery were killed that day, and the peaks of Luotu Mountain that directly plunge into the sea of clouds can be faintly seen.

Yun Xiaoxiao waved a short stick in his hand, and he didn't know why, not only was the entire Luotu Mountain much bigger than the surrounding peaks, but even the poisonous snakes and beasts were surprisingly numerous, and they were more poisonous, as if this was a poisonous mountain.

At dusk, the two of them were still wandering around the mountainside of Luotu Mountain, and they didn't find any traces of the demon sect demons, Yun Xiaoyi saw that there were many poisonous snakes around, so he immediately retreated, and said, "Senior Sister Han, it's getting dark, let's go back." ”

Han Xuemei nodded and did not speak. At this moment, there was a sudden sound of breaking the sky in the sky, and I saw a man wearing a mask of demonic fangs passing over the heads of the two and flying somewhere at the foot of the mountain.

Yun Xiaoxie and Han Xuemei were stunned at the same time, and their eyes looked at the mountain wall behind the jungle in the distance, and in that dark corner, there seemed to be a great secret.

Han Xuemei's eyes flashed, she glanced at Yun Xiaoxie, and said slowly: "You wait for me here, I'll take a look." ”

Yun Xiaoye immediately shook his head and said, "What do you mean? When I Yun Xiaoye eats soft rice, you want to go with us!"

Han Xuemei looked at Yun Xiaoxie deeply, without saying a word, the goose-yellow figure flashed, and flew silently in the direction where the man in black fell. Yun Xiaoxiao followed behind her, and also didn't say a word.

Under the stone wall, the rattan thorns trembled slightly, as if someone had pushed them away. Yun Xiaoye stepped forward, stretched out his short stick and flicked it, and immediately a black hole appeared behind the dense rattan, like the eyes of a hideous beast, staring coldly at the two of them.

Yun Xiaoxie felt a chill in his heart, and a chill welled up in his heart, and he subconsciously took two steps back, laughed dryly, and said, "That person seems to have entered this cave." ”

Han Xuemei nodded slowly, and said lightly: "No wonder we have been looking for a few days and there is no trace, it turns out that we are hiding here, hum." ”

She snorted coldly, cold and piercing, as if the chill brought was stronger than the mysterious ancient cave in front of her, and the pair of eyes as bright as autumn water stared coldly at the dark cave in front of her, and suddenly, she took a step.

Yun Xiaoye pulled her and said in a low voice: "I don't know how many demons and monsters there are, just the two of us killed it, do you think we seem to be a little thin in terms of numbers." ”

Han Xuemei looked at him and said lightly: "This mountain should be Luotu Mountain, you use the magic sound stone to transmit the sound to Senior Sister Linlang and tell them that they have found traces of demon demons here." ”

Yun Xiaoye nodded and said, "That's the best." ”

Yun Xiaoye took out the magic sound stone in the Qiankun Dao, which was about the same size as the Haotian Mirror on Li Ziye's body, refined from the Nine Heavens Xuanshi, and engraved with mysterious lines, as if it was a mysterious small magic circle. Through this stone mirror, long-distance communication can be carried out.

Yun Xiaoxie's mental power urged the Magic Sound Mirror, and a faint black light suddenly flashed, and he said to the Magic Sound Mirror: "Senior Sister Lu Linlang, I'm Yun Xiaoxie, where are you?

After a while, the black qi of the magic sound mirror was entangled, and Lu Linlang's figure appeared in the mirror, Lu Linlang rolled his eyes, and then a voice came, "We are going back, have you and Xuemei found anything?"

Yun Xiaoye nodded and said: "In Luotu Mountain, dozens of miles away in the southwest, I found traces of demon sect demons, that is, there is a hidden hole in the yin of the mountain, and Senior Sister Han and I are going to ...... Senior Sister Han ......"

Yun Xiaoye raised his head, but saw Han Xuemei walking into the dark cave alone, his face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said: "Senior Sister Han has already entered, God knows how many demon sect demons there are inside, hurry up and bring a large team of people to come over to support!"

The pitch-black cave lit up a strange white light, the white light condensed but did not disperse, and the piercing coldness shone like a cold moon in the darkness.

Frost!

When Yun Xiaoxiao stomped his feet and gritted his teeth and chased in, Han Xuemei had already held the invincible Nine Heavens Divine Weapon in her hand, illuminating the darkness of Fang Yuanzhang Yu.

Yun Xiaoxie walked quickly behind her and said softly: "You are too young, you are completely inexperienced~ Now at this time, we should block the entrance to the cave and wait for the arrival of the team!"

Han Xuemei didn't stop, just walked in slowly, and said lightly: "What if there are other exits inside?"

The cave was dark and damp, and there was a strange sound of a whining wind cutting across the rocks from the depths, adding to the strangeness.

Yun Xiaoye frowned, the boss in his heart was unwilling to take risks with Han Xuemei, this woman didn't know whether she was alive or dead at all, but now that she had entered the cave, this indifferent weird woman should, probably, maybe, definitely not look back. In desperation, he had no choice but to follow.

The time of the half-pillar incense passed quickly, and the two came to a cave in the belly of the mountain, and there were as many as nine forks in front of them, each of which was pitch black, and it seemed to be the nine pitch-black heads of the legendary Hydra Demon.

Han Xuemei bent down and picked up something on the ground, it turned out to be a meat bone, it looked like it should have been discarded not long ago, she looked contemplative, turned her head to look at Yun Xiaoxie, but saw Yun Xiaoxie standing in front of the nine forks in the road with a pensive face, and there seemed to be an incredible look in his eyes.

"What are you looking at?" Han Xuemei said slowly.

Yun Xiaoye hit a spirit, grabbed his head and said: "It's nothing, it seems to be a little familiar, I don't know where I've seen it, strange, strange......"

Han Xuemei stepped forward slowly and said, "Let's go in and have a look." ”

Yun Xiaoxiao said: "There are nine forks in the road, which one shall we take?"

Han Xuemei pointed to the middle one and said, "This one." ”

Yun Xiaoye suddenly pulled him, shook his head and said, "No, this must be a dead end, or the third one on the right, I really seem to have seen ...... somewhere."

Han Xuemei looked back at her and said with a puzzled expression, "Are you sure?"

Yun Xiaoye shook his head slightly, and said, "I'm not sure, let's go inside, I guess I can remember." ”

Han Xuemei walked into the third fork on the right side of the road that Yun Xiaoxiao chose without saying a word, Yun Xiaoye was very smart, and drew a mark of Shu Mountain with a stone at this fork in the road, in case the disciples of Shu Mountain came to see so many forks in the road, it was good to know where they and Han Xuemei had entered.

The road is not wide, and there are no traces of artificial excavation, it is twisted and turned, and several places are blocked by stalactites hanging from it, and you can only pass it sideways.

Gradually, the crack passage of this mountain has been going down, and I don't know how many feet it has gone deep into the ground. When squeezing through a narrow gap, there is a mountain cave in front of it that is even more huge than before, with a width of 100 zhang and a dome more than 10 zhang high, but this cave has traces of human activity, and there are even four simple stone steps leading to the mountain cave from the gap.

The two were stunned, there were no demon demons in this cave, but there were nine forks in the hole, each of which was eight feet high and four feet wide, as if it was a tunnel dug out by hand.

Yun Xiaoye scratched his head and said, "Why are there nine forks in the road, what the hell is this place, how is it like the Ten Thousand Fox Ancient Caves of Qilin Mountain, seven horizontal and eight vertical, my head is dizzy when I turn." ”

Han Xuemei stood in the stone cave with the Xuanshuang Sword in her hand, the faint white light of the Xuanshuang Sword shrouded her body, and she couldn't see her expression clearly, only those cold eyes shone gently in the white light.

She said lightly: "Which way do we go now?"

Yun Xiaoxie was shocked for a while, almost crazy, and said, "It's too familiar! It's too familiar! This place is so familiar, where have you seen it!"

Han Xuemei frowned and looked at him, this cave was extremely weird, how could Yun Xiaoxie have come here? The nine forks in the road are divided into nine, even if it is known as the largest mountain bottom labyrinth in the world, the Qilin Mountain Ten Thousand Fox Ancient Cave, I am afraid that there are not so many forks.

At this moment, Yun Xiaoye suddenly pointed to the dark hole in the middle and said, "Let's go this one." ”

Han Xuemei took a deep look at the cave that was no different from the other eight caves, and said, "Are you sure? If there are nine forks in the road to get in, I will beat you." ”

"Huh?"

Yun Xiaoxie was stunned on the spot, smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "Then let's go back the same way, the man in black obviously didn't go this way." ”

He turned his head and suddenly his face changed, and exclaimed, "Hey, where did we just come in?"

Han Xuemei was taken aback, and when she looked back, she saw that there were nine identical mountain crevices on the stone wall behind her, and her eyes were attracted by the nine caves in front of her just now, and she didn't notice that there were nine roads at all!

"Labyrinth!" Han Xuemei said coldly: "This is a labyrinth arranged by a master, once we fall into it, we will be trapped here forever." ”

Yun Xiaoxie's face also changed greatly when he heard this, and he said angrily: "I told you not to come in, you have to come in, now what do you say!"

Han Xuemei didn't speak, her eyes swept towards the nine mountain crevices on the stone wall, she recalled in her mind the steps she had just taken, and she could roughly infer that there were three gaps, but now she must not take a wrong step.

She said, "That man in black deliberately brought us here. ”

Yun Xiaoxiao snorted: "I have seen it a long time ago, but you are bent on going your own way, hey!"

Han Xuemei said lightly: "Now you can only go inside, you can follow if you want, and if you don't want to follow, just wait for me here." ”

"Wait...... I feel safer together. ”

The two walked into the dark fork in the middle of the cave together, this passage was much wider than the previous one, and soon the two passed through the long passage, as expected, the end of the passage was still a huge mountain cave, larger than the previous two combined, this time the two learned smartly, did not rush out of the passage, but stood at the mouth of the passage and looked, and there were eighteen passages on the stone wall beside them!

Yun Xiaoye picked up the stone and made a mark on it, and then walked out of the passage with Han Xuemei, there was silence in the huge cave at the bottom of the mountain, and at the end of the darkness, there were also eighteen corresponding forks in the cave.

At this moment, Yun Xiaoxie calculated in his heart, but he was afraid that he had gone thousands of feet deep into the ground, and looking at this appearance, this ancient and mysterious cave seemed to have no end. A bad premonition came to his heart, he was quite scared in his heart, pulled Han Xuemei's sleeve, and said, "We...... Let's find a way to go back. ”

Han Xuemei's expression also changed, the strangeness here was beyond her imagination, she originally thought that even if there were forks in the road at the end, there would be at most nine, but she didn't expect that there would be eighteen roads. She didn't know if there was any magic circle in it, and it would definitely be bad luck to break in rashly. Fortunately, the two of them made a mark just now, returned the same way, and brought it back to the ancient cave in the middle to test it a few times, and they could still get out.
