Chapter 208: Scheming

、、、、、、、

Southern Xinjiang, 100,000 mountains.

The icy wind gradually made people feel the chill, and the low black clouds in the sky and the deep cavern that was gradually becoming apparent showed that the cave of the legendary demon was gradually approaching. Lu Xueqi and the others stood more than ten zhang away from the Demon Suppression Ancient Cave, looking in the direction of the cave.

In the distance, a stone elephant facing the depths of the cave with its back to them stood lonely at the entrance of the Demon Suppression Ancient Cave, and there was nothing else.

Li Xun looked at the cave, seemed to be a little nervous, and said in a low voice: "This is it." ”

The yin wind was howling, and it seemed that it suddenly raised its voice a little, which made people frightened. Lu Xueqi, Zeng Shushu, Li Xun and others were deeply humane, so they were naturally not afraid of the yin qi contained in this cloudy morning, and the dozen or so disciples of the Incense Valley who followed them were all masters of one in a hundred, and they didn't look too uncomfortable.

Zeng Shushu turned his head back and said, "The demonic aura here is really heavy, but we have been observing for a long time, but there is not a single demon beast infested, which is a bit strange." ”

Lu Xueqi nodded, but her cold expression did not change at all, and she said lightly: "Since we are here, let's go over, and if there are any demonic beasts and demons, we can deal with them as soon as possible." After that, he didn't wait for Li Xun to wait for someone's answer, and walked straight forward.

Li Xun and Zeng Shushu glanced at each other, Zeng Shushu laughed dryly, shrugged his shoulders, and followed, Li Xun looked at the slender background from behind, and suddenly sighed secretly, for him, that figure really didn't know how many times it had appeared in his dreams, but when he really had the opportunity to be together, it seemed to be farther away.

He was stunned for a moment, waved his hand, beckoned the junior disciples behind him, and followed.

In the distance, near the mysterious stone elephant at the entrance of the Demon Suppression Ancient Cave, a black shadow suddenly flashed and flashed into the cave, and it was the figure of Heimu.

Almost as Kuroki's figure flashed to the entrance of the cave, a low roar suddenly appeared out of thin air in the depths of the cave, it was the voice of the fierce spirit black tiger, and then the void smoke in the middle of the air began to condense, and the fierce spirit was about to appear again. At this moment, Hei Huangdi, who was hiding behind the black clothes, said quickly: "Big brother, don't come out yet, listen to me." ”

The fierce spirit Black Tiger sneered, but the white smoke was still condensing, obviously not listening to Heimu's words, and said, "Beast, do you dare to come back?"

Heimu stood in the shadow of a corner of the cave and said, "After you appeared, it was inevitable that you would alarm these people who came over, there is an endless stream of people who came to this Demon Ancient Cave today, so don't you know what's going on?"

The white smoke of the void suddenly suffocated in midair, did not continue to increase, but did not mean to disperse, and after a while, the voice of the black tiger said coldly: "What do you mean?"

Kuroki said coldly: "They came here, naturally to deal with the people in this cave, no matter what, isn't this exactly what you wanted? Not to mention that you had already let people in earlier, why not let more people in now?"

Outside the entrance of the cave, the sound of footsteps sounded in the distance, and the group approached the ancient and deep cave of this person.

The white smoke suddenly dispersed, and in the strong yin wind blowing from the depths of the cavern, it instantly dissipated, and almost at the same time, Kuroki's black figure also disappeared into the darkness.

Lu Xueqi, Zeng Shushu and Li Xun waited for the figures, and after the next moment, they appeared in front of the entrance of the Demon Suppression Ancient Cave.

Zeng Shushu cautiously glanced into the deep darkness of the cave, his brows furrowed, obviously feeling a little uneasy about the place where the demonic aura was so heavy but so strange and unpredictable. And Li Xun, who was standing next to him, was a little similar to him, and he frowned slightly, but between his expressions, his eyes revealed a little vague surprise and surprise, he slowly walked back and forth a few steps near the mouth of the cave, but everything was calm, and there was no sound except for the strong and biting yin wind.

This seemed to make Li Xun feel a little confused, he stared at this demon-suppressing ancient cave, silent, as if he was pondering something.

Unlike these two men, after arriving outside this cave, Lu Xueqi quickly shifted her attention from the deep darkness in the Demon Suppression Ancient Cave to the mysterious and lonely female stone elephant next to her, she slowly walked in front of the stone elephant and stared at the stone elephant.

The stone elephant woman doesn't know how many years of wind, frost, rain and snow she has experienced, and traces of erosion can be seen everywhere from top to bottom, but as if she has some kind of induction, Lu Xueqi can clearly see that the expression of this stone elephant woman is still so lifelike, her face is slightly sad, with a sadness, her eyes seem to be confused, silently staring at the depths of this mysterious ancient cave, as if she is expecting something, and as if she is pouring out something!

It's just that in the past 10 million years, who has heard her heart?

"Senior Sister Lu, Senior Sister Lu!"

Suddenly, a few surprised shouts came from the side, Lu Xueqi's whole body was shocked, and she couldn't help but take a step back, wake up from her inexplicable contemplation, and look to the side.

Zeng Shushu was a little surprised and a little worried on his face, and said, "Senior Sister Lu, I've called you a few times, why don't you seem to hear it?"

Lu Xueqi's face turned slightly pale, and she slowly clenched the hand hanging from her waist, but found that she didn't know when it started, and her palms were actually covered with cold sweat. She took a deep breath, calmed down, and said lightly, "It's okay, did you find anything?"

Zeng Shushu shook his head and said, "No, except for the yin wind that is a little weird here, I haven't even seen any trace of a demon beast." With that, he turned to Li Xun and said, "Senior Brother Li, what did you find?"

Li Xun was silent for a moment, shook his head as well, and said, "It's nothing, but it's really weird here." ”

Zeng Shushu said strangely: "Weird, what weird?"

Li Xun was taken aback, and hurriedly laughed dryly, and said, "No, I saw that this was originally a beast demon lair, how could there be no beast demon haunting, so I felt strange." ”

Zeng Shushu smiled and said, "That's right, I also feel strange in my heart, what do you say, Senior Sister Lu?"

Lu Xueqi didn't answer immediately, the bright and clear eyes slowly flashed with light, and glanced at Li Xun again, Li Xun somehow, suddenly coughed, turned his head to look at the other Incense Valley disciples, and said, "You guys come here, don't be too far away." ”

Lu Xueqi was stunned for a moment, then looked back at the female stone elephant, and said, "No matter what, when we come here, there is no reason to give up halfway, let's go in." ”

Zeng Shu nodded and said, "Not bad." After speaking, he turned to Li Xun and said, "Senior Brother Li, what do you mean?"

Li Xun was still frowning, as if he had a difficult mind in his heart at the moment, but after a while, he still said, "Senior Sister Lu said very well, let's go in." ”

Zeng Shushu turned around and said, "Since that's the case, let's go in." But it's an extraordinary place after all, so it's better to be careful. In this way, I should open the way first, Senior Sister Lu, you will answer in the middle, Senior Brother Li, after you break off, the other senior brothers of Incense Valley will walk in the middle, okay?"

Li Xun nodded, and was about to agree, when suddenly Lu Xueqi said lightly on the side: "It's so inappropriate, let's change it." ”

Zeng Shushu and Li Xun were both stunned, Zeng Shushu said: "Senior Sister Lu, what do you mean?"

Lu Xueqi pondered for a moment and said, "I'll go ahead, Senior Brother Zeng will walk last, and the others and Senior Brother Li will be in the middle, Senior Brother Li and Yu are all disciples of Incense Valley, in case something happens, there will be someone to direct the speak." ”

Li Xun's face changed slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but Zeng Shushu had already smiled and said: "Ah, that's right, why didn't I expect that at this point, what Senior Sister Lu said was reasonable, so it was decided." ”

Li Xun frowned, but after all, he still closed his mouth and did not speak, which can be regarded as acquiescence. Lu Xueqi looked at him, then turned his head to Zeng Shushu and said, "Senior Brother Zeng, you are at the end, you have a good line of sight, you should look at the overall situation and plan in your heart." ”

Zeng Shushu smiled slightly, and suddenly turned his back to them at an angle that Li Xun and other Incense Valley disciples couldn't see, winked at Lu Xueqi, and then smiled: "Senior Sister Lu, don't worry, after I break off, there won't be any trouble, ha......"

Lu Xueqi glanced at Zeng Shushu deeply, and suddenly the corners of her mouth seemed to show a shallow smile, but then she disappeared again, Rao is so, this moment of elegance has made the young disciples of Incense Valley who secretly looked at her from time to time in the distance be disturbed, and some people couldn't help but sigh.

Li Xun snorted, his face was cold, and suddenly disappeared without a trace, Lu Xueqi's face turned cold again, glanced around, and said, "Let's go in." After saying that, he ignored the others and went first.

Zeng Shushu turned to Li Xun and smiled: "Senior Brother Li, let's go too." ”

Li Xun nodded, greeted the other disciples of the Incense Valley, and followed, waiting for Li Xun and the group to follow Ji Xueqi into the deep darkness, Zeng Shushu seemed to be unhurried, looking at the surrounding scenery for a while, as if thinking about something, and after a while, he smiled mysteriously and slowly walked into this ancient cave.

The sound of low footsteps echoed out of the darkness and the mouth of the Demon Suppression Ancient Cave fell into silence again. As the footsteps became lower and farther and farther away, and finally disappeared, a figure suddenly flashed in the darkness, and then Kuroki's figure walked out of the darkness, and slowly walked to the female stone elephant, silently looking at the stone elephant.

Behind him, the illusory white smoke slowly floated up and condensed, and the huge figure of the fierce spirit black tiger also reappeared, but at this moment, he didn't seem to immediately speak ill of Heimu, but turned back to the darkness in the depths of the cave and stared at it for a long time, and suddenly sneered, and said: "These people in Middle Earth, intrigue and intrigue are never endless, even when they come here, they still keep fighting. ”

Kuroki turned around and said lightly: "People's hearts have always been like this, don't say it's them, it's you and me, and even the mother back then, isn't it the same?"

"What?" The huge body of the fierce spirit black tiger turned around, because the speed was too fast and fast, so that it made a muffled sound similar to the roar of a beast in mid-air, and when he looked at his face again, his face was already full of anger and hideous, only to hear him roar: "What are you talking about, you dare to insult Niangniang, and you are still in front of Niangniang Divine Elephant?"

In front of this terrifying fierce body, Kuroki's body looked extremely small, but somehow, although he couldn't see his face clearly, from his calm tone, you could hear that he didn't have the slightest fear, and more, it seemed that he was deeply tired.

"Big brother, if Niangniang didn't have a scheming at the beginning, after so many years, what do you think can seal that immortal and immortal demon in this ancient cave?"

The fierce spirit black tiger was obviously suffocated by this, but he obviously didn't want to admit it, and roared: "What nonsense are you talking about, that's all back then."

"Alright. Suddenly, Hei Mu was unusual, and he actually broke off, interrupted the words of the fierce spirit Black Tiger, and said: "You don't always hang Niangniang and Niangniang in your mouth like this, I don't have any less respect for Niangniang." ”

The huge body of the fierce spirit black tiger froze for a moment, and his face involuntarily showed a trace of consternation, after a while, he did not get angry, but the expression on his face calmed down, looking at this relative in his previous life from top to bottom, he suddenly smiled, and then said lightly: "What's wrong with you, you wouldn't have said this to me in the past?"

Kuroki sneered as if he was laughing at himself, and slowly turned his gaze back to the delicate stone statue of the shrine maiden, and said slowly, "Yes, I would never have spoken like this before, but why am I like this now? I don't even know myself, who can tell me?"

The fierce spirit black tiger said coldly: "That's your own business, I'm not interested or want to know, you just have to tell me one thing." ”

Kuroki looked at the delicate stone elephant in a daze, and said, "What?"

The fierce spirit Black Tiger said: "It was your betrayal of Niangniang's legacy that you left behind, and you rebelled against the way and privately helped that demon recover the five holy weapons of the five clans in Southern Xinjiang and resurrect him." But why did you let me go into the cave today, in order to disuse him?"

Hei Mu's eyes never left the delicate stone elephant, and after a while, his voice was low and bitter, and said: "Niangniang sealed the beast god back then, it was wrong, we followed Niangniang and asked for the art of immortality, so it was wrong to create such a monster, I thought that the beast god was not guilty of this, but I didn't expect him to be angry with the world, the common people, so that out of this catastrophe, I was also wrong." ”

Kuroki laughed miserably, turned around suddenly, opened his arms, and shouted in a terrible voice, "Wrong, wrong, wrong, it turns out that we are all wrong"

The shout echoed far away, and the mountains responded, but the heavens and the earth were indifferent, but as if nothing had changed, they stared coldly at the mortal world.

The huge body of the fierce spirit black tiger stood aside, looking at the suddenly spasmodic figure of the black wood, and was silent, without saying a word, just standing silently behind him, in the eye sockets, the complicated eyes flickered slightly, but there was no trace of tears.

Whether it is him or Kuroki, in this bleak world, for thousands of years, they have long lost the right to cry!

It's just that Lu Xueqi, who was in the ancient cave of demon suppression, suddenly seemed to feel something, stopped, turned around and glanced at the road that had always been the ground, but the road behind him was dark and silent, and there was no sound except for silence.

It's just that the sudden throbbing is tumbling and echoing in the heart for a long time.

Li Xun, who was not far behind her, said in a low voice, "Senior Sister Lu, what's wrong, have you found anything?"

Lu Xueqi was in the dark, slowly turned around, and looked ahead, but there was also a dark and dreary darkness.

She was silent for a moment in the dark, and then said quietly, "It's nothing, keep walking." She was in the dark, breathing deeply, cheering up, and walked proudly, the darkness quietly dispersed in front of her, because from her hand, the Tianya Divine Sword gradually lit up, and the gentle light blue I light gently shrouded her behind her, looking like a dream.

Behind him, I don't know how many people instantly held their breath.

In the middle, that beautiful figure resolutely walked towards the dark road, although it looked a little lonely, but there was no hesitation.

This part of the road, such a life, how should we go through?

She didn't look back.

Deep in the Ancient Cave of Demon Suppression.

The flame burned quietly in the old brazier, but if you look closely, you will find that there is no combustible thing in the brazier under the light of the fire, and there is nothing combustible in the brazier, and this incessant flame seems to be a rootless fire.

Flames flickered in midair, tongues of fire swaying, illuminating the beast god's face and reflecting the figure of the man who was approaching.

Ghost Li walked to the other side of the firelight, his face slowly appearing in the light, and at the same time saw the familiar face in front of him.

The beast god, who was still sitting on the ground leaning on the small stone platform, smiled slightly, looked Ghost Li up and down, and said, "I knew that someone would come sooner or later, but I didn't expect that you would be the first to arrive here," he paused for a moment and smiled: "Looking at the look you saw me just now, it doesn't seem that you are surprised, did you already know my identity when we met before this?"

Ghost Li shook his head slowly, facing this young and gentle man, it was really difficult to think of him with the beast demon who brought catastrophe to the whole world before, but this is a fact.

"I guessed it later. He replied lightly.

The beast god looked at him and said gently, "Oh, I'm very interested, how did you guess my identity, from the rumors about my appearance, or my clothes, or my various actions?"

"Neither. The ghost said.

The beast god seemed to be funny, and said, "Oh, what is that?"

Ghost Li glanced to his side and said, "It's it." ”

The beast god nodded slowly and said, "Yes, this is the best way, you can't go wrong." Beside him, the giant beast roared in a low voice.

The beast god stretched out his hand, but from a distance, he could even see that the hand was strangely pale, it didn't seem to look like a person's hand at all, and that hand was withered as if it was the hand he had seen when he saw the great wizard in Qilitong.

It's just that, after a few gentle pats of that seemingly weak hand, it seemed to have some comfort, and the gluttony calmed down and slowly lay on the ground. At the same time, the monkey Xiao Ash, who had been staying on Ghost Li's shoulder, slowly slid down, touched his head on the ground, and looked at Ghost Li and the Beast God again, as if he felt that there was no strong hostility between the two people as expected.

It thought for a moment, then slowly, slowly approached the glutton, who had apparently noticed this too, and turned its head to watch the gray-haired three-eyed monkey approach. Soon, Ash approached the glutton's side, it grinned, spread its hands, and the tail behind it actually shook for a while, and then, it slowly reached out and touched the glutton's head.

The eyes of the ghost and the beast god were temporarily attracted by Xiao Ash, but neither of them spoke, and watched silently. Looking at Xiao Ash's movements, Ghost Li suddenly moved in his heart, once upon a time, many years ago, when he was still that ordinary Zhang Xiaofan, on the big bamboo peak, Xiao Ash was also so close to the big dog that Tian was not easy to raise.

The gluttony slowly straightened its body, but did not stand up immediately, for it, it seemed to be a little confused, it turned its head to look at the master beast god, but the beast god seemed to be careless, and did not see any displeased expression, and then it turned back again, and the little gray hand reached out to its head.

In the middle of the glutton's nose, he suddenly snorted lowly, as if to demonstrate, Xiao Ash was startled, retracted his arm, and then found that the gluttony did not attack, but looked at himself vigilantly in his eyes.

Little Ash smiled, jumped twice on the ground, and suddenly jumped forward, jumping next to the gluttonous body. The gluttony was obviously startled, and shrank back, but the only child, Xiao Ash, had already slowly touched its head. To it, the terrifying and vicious head of the gluttony seemed to be very dear to it.

Gluttonous Blood Basin let out a low grunt in its mouth, as if complaining, but after a while, it slowly lay back on the ground, resting its head on its arm, as if it was a little drowsy, and Little Ash also sat on its body, making a "squeak" chuckle from time to time, slowly touching Glutton's head.

Between the two spirit beasts, it seems that there is no barrier.

The gaze of the ghost and the beast god slowly withdrew from them, and they were silent for a while.

I don't know how long it took, but the beast god suddenly smiled and said, "Actually, they are happier than us, aren't they?"

Ghost Li didn't speak.
