After a while, Meng Tian was ready, but saw that she was holding a strange boxy array board, similar to a Go chessboard, with lattice-like stripes and stars on it, but only a quarter of the size of the chessboard.

The silver chain that was originally wrapped around her wrist was now coiled in the center of the array, like a hibernating snake.

"Senior sister, what kind of formation board are yours, and how is it the same as a Go board?" Bai Ya couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Did you know the word "star chessboard", which means that the chess pieces on the board are arranged like stars in the sky? Legend has it that the Go board was made by Naiyao in order to teach his son Danzhu. Later, the Taoist sages discovered that the Go board made by Yao also contained the Heavenly Dao and could arrange the star array, so he created this kind of star Luo array. ”

Meng Tian raised the Star Luo Array Disk in his hand and said with a smile, "And the silver chain magic weapon I placed on it is called the Winged Snake Chain, which itself is a combination of the array disk. When combined with the Star Luo Array Disk, it will become a very useful pathfinder and will be detected by the trap mechanism as long as it has vitality fluctuations. ”

"I see. ”

Bai Ya looked at the Xingluo chessboard in her hand and felt very interesting, the Xuandao monk's protective means were indeed much richer than that of the martial artist.

The two of them bypassed the pile of rubble in front of the mansion gate and cautiously entered the hall of the cave.

It was a decaying place, with a thick layer of dirt on the ground, a lot of green between the cracks in the stones, and purple vines crawling on the walls and the top of the hall.

Meng Tian stared at the Star Luo Array Disk in his hand, there was still no movement on it, but Bai Ya was inexplicably a little apprehensive in his heart, as the two of them walked to the center of the hall, his heartbeat began to speed up, and a stream of hot blood rushed up to his head, dyeing his face crimson.

"Retreat!" Bai Ya shouted, grabbed Meng Tian's arm, and pulled her back.

Meng Tian was caught off guard and almost fell, but Bai Ya was so strong that she was lifted up like a rag doll.

“...... Huh~" Meng Tian raised his eyebrows, feeling dissatisfied in his heart, but in the corner of his eye, he saw the top of the winged snake chain on the Star Luo Array Disk raised high, like a cobra waiting to be devoured.

Just as the Star Luo Array was moving, the originally decayed and abandoned hall also changed, and I saw the purple vines on the walls and ceiling of the hall slowly wriggling, like a giant python that had just woken up from its dormancy.

In the next moment, countless vines shot at the two of them like javelins.

Fortunately, Bai Ya's reaction was one step ahead and he avoided the attack of the vines, but the two of them were also forced out of the hall again, until they retreated more than ten zhang away from the door of the mansion, and then they were out of the range of the vines' attacks.

"Senior brother, how did you find out?" Looking at the "snake cave" formed by vines not far away, Meng Tian's face was ugly, her array reaction was slow, if it weren't for Bai Ya's alertness, the two would have fought hard.

"Intuition!" Bai Ya nodded his head, the higher the realm of a martial artist, the more intuitive his intuition became, and it was much more sensitive than the magic weapon array.

"Damn, the array carefully prepared by this palace is still so sluggish. Meng Tian sighed, looking distressed.

"Senior sister, don't be upset, it's good that your array can be sensed when attacking, after all, it can't be compared to the six senses of a martial artist. Bai Ya shook his head and said fairly, "What's more, your array is mainly aimed at the vitality fluctuations of traps, and it is nothing if you fail to warn living creatures who are good at camouflage in advance. ”

"But what the hell is this thing?" Bai Ya looked at the squirming purple vines with a curious expression, "There are quite a few types of killing vines recorded by the sect, but they are all different from the description of this thing in front of you. ”

He wasn't talking nonsense, there were many kinds of vines as thick as children's arms, and there were many underground vines that grew in the cold, damp and without sunlight, but vines with flexible branches like living snakes were rare.

Plants are not animals after all, and plant fibers can be flexible to a decent degree, but their induction system is a natural weakness.

The neurons in the animal's body are spread throughout the body and are able to respond to external influences at all times, which is the reason why animals are called animals. But plants obviously don't have this, so even killer plants are hardly as flexible as animals.

And the purple vines in front of them were obviously an anomaly, almost out of the category of plants.

Speaking of which, Hongu remembered that there was something called the snake vine in Honshu that was very similar to it, but the shape of the snake vine was not so big, only the thickness of a little finger. It is very popular among the female dependents of dignitaries and nobles, and is often used as a bonsai pet. ”

Meng Tian said with a strange face, "Maybe this thing is a mutation of the Ba Snake Vine, but I don't know what chance it will grow so big." ”

"Oh, Senior Sister, does the Ba Snake Vine have any weaknesses?" Bai Ya asked curiously.

"Afraid of fire, the snake vine is a very drought-sensitive plant, the plant cannot contain water, and likes to grow in a cold and damp place, which is also similar to this thing. Meng Tian said with a smile.

"Heh, let's try it. Bai Ya thought about it, how can plants not be afraid of fire.

Meng Tian thought about it and took out two pieces of fire crystals from the storage bag, which were high-temperature incendiary products produced by Maguguan, but the effect was completely different from firearms such as thunderbolts, and they were generally used for refining medicine.

Usually, as long as a little powder is scraped off, it can be used to catalyze a high-temperature furnace fire for alchemy. If a whole piece is thrown into the fire, it will explode violently, it will be no different from a thunderbolt, but it is worth a hundred times more than a thunderbolt, but no Xuandao monk would really do this.

She had just taken out the fire crystal here, and when she looked back at the thing in Bai Ya's hand, she couldn't help but twitch her cheeks.

"Senior brother, what are you trying to do, and ...... Why did you bring so much oil?"

It turned out that Baiya's side directly took out a large vat of fire oil from the Divine Hidden Ring, which was a large water tank as tall as a Qi person, and it was only afraid that it could contain no less than hundreds of catties of fire oil.

It is necessary for warriors to bring ignition oil when they go out, and it can be used to light a fire when camping in the wilderness, and it is common to bring a small jar the size of a can. But like Baiya, who carries a large tank of fire oil, he doesn't know what to say at all.

"Hehe, don't you need to do this?" Bai Ya smiled, and with a wave of one arm, a large water tank filled with oil smashed towards the abandoned cave like a cannonball.

"Bang!" Before the vines intercepted the water tank, he smashed the water tank with a single palm, and the fire oil that exploded in the air poured down, staining most of the vines, and even half of the cave hall.

"Hehe!" Bai Ya rubbed his hands with a strange expression, then took out the fire fold and threw it over.

"Boom~" The wall of fire almost burned to the top of the underground cave, and in an instant, the temperature in the cave rose several degrees.

"Papa~" The purple vines writhed painfully in the flames, if it weren't for the lack of vocal organs, they would have let out a scream that resounded through the sky at this time.

All the burning vines flew into the cave, and then there was a "boom" sound inside, and through the broken door, the two of them could even see large patches of dust and rubble falling from the walls and ceilings of the cave.

"Haha, it seems that this murderous vine is very deeply rooted in the cave, it is so desperate to make trouble, even if there are still some mechanisms left in this abandoned cave, I am afraid that it will be destroyed now. Bai Ya said happily.

"Senior brother, don't you like to set fires, right?" Meng Tian squinted at him.

"What's the ...... Didn't Senior Sister let it go in Xuanying Village?" Bai Ya pouted, he wouldn't respond to this, most of the serial arsonists had mental problems, and he was a normal person.

The fire burned quickly, probably because there were no other burning materials here except for the killing vine.

When the two of them approached the abandoned cave again, they immediately smelled a fragrance from inside, like roasted sweet potatoes.

"Isn't this vine still edible?" Bai Ya swallowed his saliva involuntarily, they had never eaten since they went into the water to fight with the crocodile Jiao to discover the cave today, and they would inevitably be hungry after a big battle.

"I don't know, why don't you get some and taste it!" Meng Tian glanced at him angrily.

Thinking of the strange appearance of this thing before, she was a little disgusted, and she didn't understand how Bai Ya could think of eating it.

"Well, it tastes the same as taro, yes, do you want it, senior sister? I've tried it, it shouldn't be poisonous. ”

What Meng Tian didn't expect was that Bai Ya actually cut a piece of black vines on the ground, peeled off the charred skin and tasted it. Meng Tian was suddenly dumbfounded, after the vines in his hands were roasted, they looked soft and snow-white, with a fragrance, and they were really aroused by their appetite.

"Don't!" Meng Tian's throat moved, and he immediately turned his head.

"Hey, forget it, I'll eat it myself. Bai Ya smiled, knowing that Meng Tian couldn't accept it psychologically, so he was not as cold as him.

While eating, Bai Ya observed the hall that had been burned black.

"Senior sister, is there a dark room or something here?"

"Let me take a look first. ”

Meng Tian took out the Star Luo Array Disk again and urged the Winged Snake Chain on it. I saw the chain of winged snakes circling around them, hovering on the ground. It only took a few moments to fill the entire hall.

"There wasn't a basement room, but it seemed to be empty behind the wall on the other side. ”

“...... Indeed, most of the vines also seem to be squeezing out of the stone crevices from this side. Bai Ya's eyes froze.

A moment later, under the violent demolition of the White Cliff, a long-abandoned corridor appeared in front of the two of them.

"Stay with my brother and let me explore the way. ”

Perhaps not very satisfied with his performance, Meng Tian snatched the job of pathfinding. took out the two spars and put them on the Star Compass Array Disk, and the winged snake chain quickly expanded, turning into a giant python with iron cables the thickness of a bucket, and swam into the corridor.

"It's convenient. Bai Ya was happy to stand by and watch.

However, as he had expected, there were probably not many mechanisms left in this cave, and the chain of winged snakes extended to the extreme unharmed, without touching any traps.

The two then entered, and after passing through the corridor, they finally saw the whole picture of the cave.
