Chapter 62: The Cave (3)

Under the light of the fireflies, Murong Zhi and I saw clearly the deep valley covered in darkness.

In fact, the place we are in is a road with no end in sight, just like the long tomb road in the ancient imperial tombs in Yeshili

――Now I'm finally convinced that I'm walking down a narrow slope to the belly of the mountain.

Once the inner workings are seen, there is no mystery to the road, and our sense of fear is gone.

"If Wang Qinian can also fire curses, then there is no need to touch the black and bump for a long time. With enough lighting, we won't have to walk to the entrance of the cave in a day, and it will look like the cave is in the middle of the belly of the Falling Star Mountain. ”

I boasted about my great work.

"Well, it is true that the martial artist does not have the multi-faceted spells of the cultivator. However, it is rumored that there have been other Jindan cultivators who have come to Falling Star Mountain to explore in the past five hundred years, and they have never returned, so we are always careful. ”

Murong Zhi mentioned the cultivators, I also heard people talk about them when I was listening to the information on the island a few months ago-Wang Mang said that there were cultivators who flew into the Falling Star Mountain-but I never took it to heart.

-- The thunder method that specializes in destroying monsters is a spell that almost everyone in the cultivator knows, and they all died in this Falling Star Valley.

I'm feeling a little weird now - isn't it a little late?

"However, after all, those cultivators don't have the thirty years of experience of the two Elder Wang in studying monsters, so they may just see a little bit of aura coming out of the tip of the Falling Star Mountain, and fly into the valley to hit the luck. They don't know the ability of the monster - if the raided dust-eating insects in Yongdao come and rush up, the cultivator who doesn't know the truth may not even have time to cast the spell and move his head directly - in this kind of narrow area, the cultivator does not have the agility of the Jindan warrior. Even Wang Qinian, he had eaten the secret loss of being torn off his shoulder by a dust-eating insect outside the valley before, and he was only wary after entering the valley. ”

This is the basis for my reasoning and the rebuttal of my own confidence.

"There is some truth to it. I think Baiyun Township is a deserted place, and it is difficult to see from the outside that there is a cave hidden in the mountain. Most of the cultivators who entered the valley to hunt for treasure were also third-rate people or uninformed loners, who didn't know what was going on inside - they weren't even able to see the marks left by the owner of this cave. ”

"Marking, has the Lord of the Cave made a mark?"

"Just as a wild beast leaves a scent on the borders of its own territory, warning foreign enemies to avoid it, a cultivator leaves a unique seal in his treasure land. I've been reading books in the library for the past few days, and I've learned a lot of cultivators' practices in the secular world -- the storm wall around Baiyun Township is not only a means to block mortals from entering the island, but also a warning to those passing by the cultivators, and the projection runes covering the entire valley show the grandeur of the lord of the cave. Only those cultivators who don't know how to advance and retreat will venture into it - if they are eaten by the spirit beasts guarding the mountain, or die in the formation, don't blame the owner of the cave mansion for being ruthless. ”

"According to what you say, aren't we very similar to those cultivators who don't know what to do?"

"Ha, Wang Qitai never asked us to get the cave, but only told us to kill the dust eaters guarding the mountain - I was the one who really insisted on getting the cave. ”

Murong Zhi laughed miserably.

- Doesn't that mean that we may end up like those cultivators in the past?

Her smile was unlucky.

"Anyway, the matter of the cultivator's exploration of the mountain is a rumor after all. Up to now, we haven't even seen a single bone of Jindan. ”

I squeezed my brain out and came up with a comforting word that I didn't believe in.

Murong Zhi silently made a prayer gesture to the heavens.

"You came to believe in the gods so suddenly?"

I asked.

"It is up to man to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen. If you die in front of the Zhumen of the Cave Mansion with me without achieving anything, will you regret it?"

"No regrets. ”

I answered without hesitation.

The dead cannot say that they regret it, and it is too late to say that they regret it when they are dying. Now that they have come here, regretting it will affect morale and make girls unhappy. After thinking about it, I had no choice but to say that the hero did not regret it.

Murong Zhi leaned close to my face and suddenly covered my mouth.

My body burned.

-- Our tongues are like two snakes knotted in the wet grass.

I didn't have to learn it, I mastered it, which is much faster than learning spells and martial arts.

We breathed rapidly, and it was not only our own hearts that were beating like a drum in each other's chests, but also each other's hearts.

Murong Zhi hesitated for a moment before pushing me away, her face burning even more than mine.

That kind of taste, the sage said that people don't know the taste of meat in March.

"Ahem. Murong Zhi turned her face away and said stiffly, "If you are a ghost, this is something that will give you the last bit of aftertaste." ”

I was still immersed in the fun, and my body was so reacting that I really wanted to take a cold shower.

“...... The road is actually made of neat stones! How many manpower did it take to dig out the mountain?...... This style, this kind of stone, is neither the style of the aborigines' dwellings, nor the stone of the main island -- can it be said that this road was built by the master of the cave and the Taoist soldiers, who carried stones from the city thousands of miles away?...... Yes, the natives did not even dare to approach the valley mouth, let alone enter the mountainside to build a road...... The Yongdao was completely created by the Dao soldiers, and that person's mana was too terrifying......

My mind was filled with the scene where my body hugged and my tongue intertwined, and something was hooked-my body was anxious to pounce on Murong Zhi, and at the same time, I used what little reason I had left to forcibly press and rise*, and I didn't listen to what she said.

I'm a pirate, and robbing treasures and women is my business. I've been poisoned by those bullshit things in Confucianism, and I can't make mistakes again.

I'm the upper layer of the foundation, she is the lower layer of the foundation, and there is absolutely no problem in cleaning her up - and now I suddenly pounced on her from behind, and she didn't even have time to resist. If you dare to resist, you will beat her until she cries, and if she can't do anything, you will temporarily break her limbs.

I've been hungry for a long time, my body can't stop my brain anymore, I need Murong Zhi's body to feed me.

In my mind, I coincide with the tengu who was thinking about the delusional realm. If I didn't vent my desires, every pore of my body would be full of ants. That kind of torment is heart-wrenching, and you can't stop after tasting it once.

Eat her! Eat her! Eat her!

After I am done, I will definitely be gentle and considerate to Murong Zhi, but now I will only give her a little pain. Someone with a compassionate heart will surely forgive me for being a little rude.

- Otherwise, I'll have to kill someone!

"Puff p ”

I sank my fingers deep into the stone bricks, and the shattered stone shards mixed with my blood trickled down the stone steps.

The body bent into an arch, and I gasped in pain.

The blood that flowed out was like ice water pouring into my body, and my mind cleared,* and most of it was gone.

......

I understand why my father raped my mother.

- Sure enough, the pirate's practice ended up being nothing more than murder and rape.

We are destined to be the ones who want to be bad embryos.

Good feelings will eventually degenerate into a flood of human desires.

His father was a cheap apprentice of Nangong's big boss, and the exercises he taught his father were deliberately flawed, and when his father found out, it was too late, so he could only obediently accept Nangong's control.

"The method I learned is the second-level method of the Star Sect taught by the big boss of Nangong, and it is also his original method, called the Three Idiots and Seven Love Seals. When I was young, I practiced forking the road, and in the past few years, I have transformed into the third-level method of our family, but unfortunately there are still some drawbacks. ”

This was the first sentence my father said when he taught me internal skills.

"Isn't it true that I practiced the 'Authentic Eight Duanjin', and why is it called the Yuan Clan's three-level method?" I asked him, who was almost fifteen years old.

"There is a law in the Tao, and there is a magic in the law. "Authentic Baduanjin" is taught in any martial arts hall, but only by cooperating with me to pass on your special cultivation of the true heart method, can you go from an ordinary internal skill to building a foundation and a golden pill. For example, "Authentic Baduanjin" is water everywhere, and my mental method is a sugar cube - with my mental method, it can become a delicious sugar water. ”

At that time, I didn't seem to understand, but I heard that the family heirloom method had drawbacks and was a matter of life, so I asked,

"After practicing the mental method, is there anything I need to watch out for?"

"Magic barriers. ”

“?”

"If you get to the foundation, there will be a delusional realm, which is the obstacle that you have to go through and break through. Can't get by, only die. ”

"Can there be no magic barriers?"

"If you don't practice kung fu, you won't have magic obstacles until you get home. The magic obstacle appears when the foundation building practice reaches a bottleneck, and it is a proof that you have practiced well. ”

"What will happen after the delusion of the mind is broken?"

"If you find out, you are Jindan. Well, there is another possibility, the delusion realm has not been explored, but it has been transformed into the realm of heavenly demons. Cultivators can also use this to promote the Golden Pill, but they can only wander in the Golden Pill Realm for the rest of their lives--they regard the Demon Mind as their Dao Heart--I have also delayed it for decades, and I have done a lot of wrong things, and it is only in recent years that I have broken through the past and awakened to the wrongs of yesterday. I pass on your method to have its own improvements, and it will not be transformed into the Heavenly Demon Delirium Realm. ”

"Then why does my father still say that there are drawbacks?"

"It won't go to the Heavenly Demon Delirium Realm, but the demonic obstacle of the Delusion Realm has intensified. Although I have swept away the obstacles in your Jindan realm, it is several times more difficult for you to break through to the Jindan than it was back then. ”

......

――If it weren't for today's delusional episode, I would have almost forgotten my father's words. Who would have thought that it would not take me long to break through to the upper layer of foundation building. The foundation is unstable, and the magic obstacles are so big, I'm afraid my father didn't think of it at the time.

The little greedy joy with Murong Zhi just now touched my strong desires, and there are still a lot of traces of the Nangong family's methods remaining in my father's exercises, and my thoughts and will are still not strong enough.

I silently recited the Confucian mantra taught by my mother since I was a child, until the four voices were flat and the demonic thoughts retreated, and then I was relieved, and all of them disappeared.

"What did you just do?

Murong Zhi had a dagger in his hand and frowned.

I smiled bitterly to myself, if I really pounced on her, I would have to be stabbed by her poison a few times.

"I think it's fun and comfortable to hit stones. ”

I smirked, only now recalling the burning pain in my fingers.

"Have you forgotten! Blood will also attract dust-eating insects, so don't play with so much blood!"

- I really forgot. At that time, I just wanted to dispel my desires, where did I want so much.

"Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh-"

The bone-chilling wind rolled towards us from the depths, and a dim lantern shook faintly in the wind.

My whole body felt like I had fallen into an ice cellar, and I was bound by an invisible ghost, and my limbs were stiff.

"Ah......h

My throat was dry and hoarse, and I wanted to speak but couldn't speak, it was like I had been immobilized.

It's a dust-eating bug!

A dust-eating insect with its eyes open!
