Chapter 2: The Ghost Forest
Baiyunju. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Jiang Xiaobai stood at the door of the attic, took a deep breath, and stepped in.
"Senior Brother Jiang is here, please come in. ”
Before Jiang Xiaobai knocked on the door, the door opened from the inside, and Xu Fei walked out of the room with a smile on his face.
"Senior Brother Xu. ”
Jiang Xiaobai clenched his fists.
"Senior Brother Jiang, please sit down, wait a moment, there are two fellow Daoists, come with us this time. ”
"Good. ”
Jiang Xiaobai didn't say much, nodded, and sat down on the side.
Xu Fei smiled in return, and also sat down on the side, waiting quietly.
For a moment, the room fell silent.
About half a stick of incense had passed, and there was a knock outside the door.
Knock knock.
"Please come in. ”
Xu Fei hurriedly got up, took a few steps forward, and opened the door.
"Brother Chen. ”
"Brother Xu. ”
Xu Fei stretched out his hand and invited someone to sit down.
The person known as Brother Chen also hugged his fists and sat down beside Jiang Xiaobai.
"What's the matter, Brother Bai has never been with Brother Chen?"
Xu Fei looked outside the door and found that there was only a monk surnamed Chen, and said in some surprise.
"Brother Xu doesn't know that that person who has always thought highly of himself can be with a rough person like me. ”
"This ...... Hehe, it's Xu's inappropriateness, don't blame Brother Chen. ”
Xu Fei smiled, his expression was slightly embarrassed, obviously he knew a lot about the one in the mouth of the monk surnamed Chen.
"This is the Senior Brother Jiang you said?"
The monk surnamed Chen suddenly looked at Jiang Xiaobai, and his words changed.
"This is an oversight under it. ”
Xu Fei laughed, pointed at Jiang Xiaobai, and said, "Jiang Xiaobai, Senior Brother Jiang." ”
"This is Chen Hu Daoyou. ”
Xu Fei pointed to the monk surnamed Chen and introduced.
Jiang Xiaobai nodded and looked at the monk surnamed Chen.
"Jiang Xiaobai. ”
"Chen Hu. ”
The monk surnamed Chen nodded slightly, and while saying his name, he glanced at Jiang Xiaobai with thought in his eyes.
Jiang Xiaobai quickly glanced at the monk surnamed Chen.
This is a middle-aged man who seems to be rough, with very thick eyebrows and eyes like copper bells, especially his body, but he really looks like a human tiger.
Jiang Xiaobai retracted his gaze, with a hint of essence in his eyes, and he had a guess in his heart about this monk surnamed Chen.
As time passed, Xu Fei looked up at the window from time to time, and his eyes gradually became anxious.
"Why hasn't this Bai Fei Daoist arrived yet, could it be that something has delayed?"
The monk surnamed Chen snorted coldly and said nothing.
Knock knock!
At that moment, there was a knock at the door.
Xu Fei immediately got up, looked relieved and opened the door with a smile.
"Brother White. ”
No surprise, it was the last person everyone had been waiting for a long time.
When someone stepped out and entered the room, a chill immediately spread, causing the temperature in the room to drop suddenly.
Jiang Xiaobai's pupils contracted, and as soon as this person stepped in, he immediately gave him an extremely strong crisis, especially this person's sharp edge, very flamboyant, coupled with his cold and arrogant temperament, it seemed that around him, there was no cold winter all the time.
This person's surname is Bai, Bai Fei, his snow-white hair like ice and snow is very eye-catching, his eyes are blue, and he faintly reveals a cold look.
The monk surnamed Chen looked at Bai Fei who entered, and while snorting coldly, he seemed to condense an extraordinary momentum, and rushed towards Bai Fei, forming a coercion, as if he wanted to give Bai Fei a good look.
But it seems that Bai Fei did not put the monk surnamed Chen in his eyes, and took a step forward, and the coercion of the monk surnamed Chen was like spring and white snow, disappearing invisibly.
This scene made the pupils of the monk surnamed Chen shrink, and at the same time, it also made Jiang Xiaobai's heart awe-inspiring.
At this moment, he also saw that there seemed to be some discord between this monk surnamed Chen and Bai Fei.
At the same time, I was also a little puzzled in my heart, this Bai Fei behaved like this, why did Xu Fei want this person to join this operation.
"It seems that this Bai Fei's cultivation is really unfathomable. ”
Jiang Xiaobai had a plan in his heart, and Bai Fei spoke on the other side.
"Xu Fei, now that everyone is together, let's start. ”
As soon as Bai Fei spoke, his tone was very arrogant, as if he was on top.
The monk surnamed Chen snorted coldly again.
At this moment, Xu Fei's situation was a little embarrassing, he glanced at Jiang Xiaobai, nodded slightly apologetically, coughed, and said, "Since everyone is here at the moment, let's talk about the next plans for this trip." ”
Xu Fei waved his hand, and the previous animal skin map appeared on the Eight Immortals table, and Jiang Xiaobai and the four of them formed a circle, all eyes gathered on this small map.
Especially when Xu Fei talked about the Xuanming Cave, whether it was Jiang Xiaobai or the monk surnamed Chen, even the arrogant Bai Fei was also solemn.
Xu Fei looked at Jiang Xiaobai, arched his hand and said, "This is through the Xuanming Cave, but it depends on Senior Brother Jiang." ”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded, indicating that he understood.
The monk surnamed Chen glanced at Jiang Xiaobai deeply and did not speak.
Bai Fei didn't seem to hear it, from beginning to end, until this moment, this Bai Fei's gaze did not stay on Jiang Xiaobai, even for a moment.
"So, for the time being, other aspects can only act when the time comes. ”
After some research and discussion, it has been most of the past half of the time, Xu Fei waved his hand to put away the animal skin map, looked up at the window, and groaned slightly.
"Another hour and a half will be three o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun is blazing, and it is advantageous for us to make this trip, so how about leaving at this time?"
Xu Fei said, looking at Jiang Xiaobai and the others, especially Bai Fei's body, staying for the longest time.
"No problem. ”
The monk surnamed Chen spoke, Jiang Xiaobai also nodded and agreed, as for Bai Fei, he found a place to sit down alone, without saying a word.
Jiang Xiaobai obviously noticed the look of anger in Xu Fei's eyes, which had been the case before, but when he saw his fist clenched and released, he swallowed the anger in his chest, but he didn't know why.
"Could it be that there is anything special about this person?"
Glancing at Bai Fei again, Jiang Xiaobai didn't say anything, returned to his position and sat down, closing his eyes and pranayama.
The monk surnamed Chen glanced at Bai Fei, snorted lightly as if he had disdain, and there was no extra movement.
The room was quiet again.
Time passed quickly, and in a short time it was three poles up, and the time came to noon.
Several people in the room opened their eyes almost at the same time, Xu Fei glanced at Jiang Xiaobai and a few people, turned around directly, and took the lead.
"Let's go. ”
Jiang Xiaobai and the others were not slow, and followed closely behind, walking out of Baiyunju one after another, descending from Tianmen Peak, and heading towards the direction of Xuanming Cave.
The speed of several people was very fast, and there was almost no delay halfway, and in less than half a moment, Jiang Xiaobai and the others came to a dense forest.
Phantom Forest.
There are huge ghost trees all over the place, these ghost trees are bare, only branches, and there is not a single leaf on the whole tree, which looks very eerie.
The vegetation around the ghost forest is also very sparse, and it seems to have the gloom of the ghost forest, showing a dark green.
This ghost forest is the last stop on the way to the Xuanming Cave.
As soon as he stepped into the ghost forest, Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help but shiver, as if he had stepped into the cold winter in an instant, the temperature difference changed suddenly, and the other people were not much better, although the situation was much better, they all ran their cultivation almost at the same time to resist.
Monk Chen and Xu Fei glanced at each other, and nodded at the same time, while Monk Chen took a step forward, patted the storage bag on his waist, and took out two more big swords in his hand that looked like door panels, and walked forward cautiously.
Xu Fei followed, and the soldier he used was actually a spear, with an ordinary style, and at this moment, with the spear in his hand, Xu Fei's momentum immediately became different.
Bai Fei's hands were empty, but Jiang Xiaobai clearly felt that the air around him had become a little more solemn in an instant, and it was obviously not completely inactive.
Jiang Xiaobai patted his waist, and the fine iron long sword appeared in his hand, and under the sleeve robe, three Xuanyin needles were secretly prepared, and his eyes swept vigilantly, and he stepped forward.
The ghost forest is very quiet, and even quiet is a little infiltrating, and in the huge forest at this moment, there is no sound except for the sound of Jiang Xiaobai and a few people advancing.
Rustle!
"Squat!"
The monk surnamed Chen and Xu Fei at the front suddenly changed their complexions and quickly squatted down, their bodies pressed extremely low, and they seemed to be trying their best to control their breathing.
Although he didn't know what was going on, Jiang Xiaobai was not slow to react, his body quickly lay down, and he stuck behind a mountain rock, but Bai Fei on the side seemed to know something, changed color slightly and recovered quickly, and the same speed was not slow, squatting into a low grass.
Rustle!
At this time, there was a rustling sound in front of him, and with the appearance of this voice, Jiang Xiaobai's pupils contracted, and his cold hair stood up.
A large black insect like a black cloud, with huge mouthparts, with hideous, a pair of eyes scarlet with a ghostly light, this black cloud composed of insects, the dark air, a pair of scarlet eyes revealed in the black cloud, like ghost eyes, making people chill down the spine.
Netherworms.
A notorious death bug.
His notoriety, and his ferocity, are not only low-level condensing vein cultivators, but also even life sea cultivators, and he is also a discoloration when he hears it, like avoiding snakes and scorpions.
The Netherworld Worm is tiny in size and has a hard shell, but it has an extremely terrifying feature.
The Yin Pluto Worm is immune to almost any energy body, and only a few powers, such as spiritual power, will have some effect on it.
In particular, this kind of power is under the sharp mouthparts of the Yin Worm, and this power is amplified to the maximum, and for anyone or thing who is against it, it will be like a great enemy.
I didn't know before, but now I knew that it was a creature like the Yin Netherworm, and Jiang Xiaobai's heart was shocked, and at the same time, he hid himself more carefully.
The speed of the Yin Worm was extremely fast, bringing the shadow of death, almost a few breaths, just past Jiang Xiaobai and the others, whistling.
It took a long time for Jiang Xiaobai and the others to stand up from the ground, looking at the direction of the Yin Worm's departure with palpitations, and several people glanced at each other, without saying a word, and continued to move forward silently.
In the next journey, several people were more cautious, but what frightened several people was that almost every time they walked a distance, they would encounter a black cloud composed of Yin Worms, whistling by, under this kind of close to death, luck seemed to have been with them, and every wave of Yin Worms seemed to be in a hurry to go, and did not find them.
And except for the Yin Worm, this way, he has not encountered any other dangers.
If it weren't for the huge value of the Heavenly Crystal Fruit, most of them would have given up at this moment.
It wasn't until it was dark that a few people were careful and finally came out of the ghost forest, and when they looked back, they all had a feeling of escaping death.
