Chapter 124: In the Cave
"Look, there's the sign of the Heavenly Demon Gate. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Wang Renhao pointed to the middle of the three passages in front of him, and there was indeed a notch on the wall of the passage that he was pointing to.
"Go, they should be not far away. "If there is an elder, they will go to the very middle passage.
Chu Xie and Zhao Ziling were not in a hurry to leave, as if they were thinking about something.
"Slow. Chu Xie raised his right hand high and motioned for everyone to stop.
"What's the matter, Senior Brother Chu, did you find something. Wang Renhao looked puzzled, and when he saw Zhao Ziling looking around, he also felt that something was wrong, so he also looked at the other two passages.
"I just think how can the Heavenly Demon Gate be so kind, but now that I think about it, I think there must be something hidden in it. "Chu Xie's judgment is not unreasonable, after all, because of what happened twenty years ago, the Heavenly Demon Sect has always had a hostile attitude towards the Qinglan Sect.
Hearing Chu Xie say this, the other elders also felt a little strange.
Wang Renhao thought for a moment and explained: "Not necessarily, it is impossible to say that the people of the Heavenly Demon Sect are in a predicament and have no choice but to seek cooperation with us. ”
This statement also makes sense, the situation of the two sides is similar, and if you cooperate, you will benefit both, and if you fight, you will lose both.
Chu Xie turned his head to look at Zhao Ziling and asked, "What does Senior Brother Zhao think?" ”
Zhao Ziling raised his eyebrows, looked at the entrance of the cave in front of him, and said: "No matter what the people of the Heavenly Demon Gate do, we can only follow them, otherwise it is indeed very difficult to get out of here, this is no way, be careful, we must not have other losses." ”
Chu Xie could feel that they were going down, but he was a little helpless, he didn't know what the people of the Heavenly Demon Sect were having, and the feeling of being led by the nose was too uncomfortable.
Zhao Ziling stepped forward and said, "Let's go, they should have passed through here for a long time." ”
The crowd was about to go to the middle passage, when a sudden change occurred.
Hearing the demon snake writhing rapidly from the right wall behind them, everyone was frightened, and suddenly turned around, and found a huge head rushing towards them, Sen Sen's mouth was wide and terrifying.
Where would a few elders think of this, they were stupid at once, their faces turned pale, and the two trembled.
Zhao Ziling and Chu Xie shouted loudly together: "Don't panic, be calm. The two of them drew their swords at the same time, preparing to face the demon snake.
The two elders were in the back, seeing the demon snake's big mouth coming, their hearts were cold, they turned around and ran, but they didn't look at the passage in the end, they fled directly in the opposite direction of the demon snake, and entered the passage on the left.
Zhao Ziling and Chu Xie made a move, the sword qi was vertical and horizontal, slashing at the big mouth and head of the demon snake, and the body was bullied forward, and the long sword split the snake's body.
However, the scale armor of the demon snake was too thick, and all the sword qi of the two of them only left some white marks on it, and the long sword cut a scratch on the snake skin, which failed to penetrate the outer skin at all, but the strong internal force attached to the long swords of the two also transmitted to the demon snake's body, making the demon snake slightly painful.
The demon snake glanced sideways at the two of them, and then rushed straight into the passage on the left, not intending to fight with Chu Xie and them, but the target was the two elders who were driven into the passage by him, and their speed was extremely fast, and they swept into the passage in the blink of an eye.
"Chase, chase!" Zhao Ziling roared, and his body flew into the left passage, and the rest of the people also followed him closely, once they lost the demon snake, then the two elders were afraid of being more than lucky.
The reality is cruel, Zhao Ziling and the others chased three forks, and finally lost the traces of the demon snake and the elder.
Zhao Ziling swung his sword violently, scratching a deep mark on the stone wall, and said angrily: "This damn evil beast, sooner or later I will have to skin and tendon it one day." ”
Chu Xie understood that their strength was even weaker now, and it was extremely difficult to resist the demon snake head-on, and this demon snake forcibly separated them, it should have been planned by it a long time ago, to eat them up step by step, when a demon snake is strong and extremely wise, it will undoubtedly be worse for them.
Wang Renhao still had horror on his face, and he hadn't fully recovered yet, and asked, "Senior Brother Zhao, what should I do now?" He knew that he couldn't look for the two of his fellow disciples anymore, and that there was a good chance that something had happened to them.
Zhao Ziling got up, swept away his previous annoyance, calmed down, and said: "From now on, everyone must be in good spirits, stay calm when encountering demon snakes, I and Senior Brother Chu will take the lead, you will assist by the side, don't be cowardly, there is only one way to escape." ”
Everyone nodded slightly, now there are only five of them, if they are separated by one or two people, maybe everyone will be destroyed here, it is a matter of life and death, so they can't make any more mistakes.
Zhao Ziling said again: "Okay, go back to the previous fork and go to the Heavenly Demon Sect, if they can get out, we will definitely be able to go out, and we have lost the news for so long, the sect will definitely take a countermeasure, it is very likely that the senior brother in charge will invite the Taishang to grow out of the mountain, and when the Taishang Elder arrives, this dilemma can be solved." ”
As the head of the main peak, he is very familiar with the affairs of the sect, and he understands the methods of the head of the sect to deal with this kind of thing, and they leave a variety of marks in the places they pass by, the demon snake and the book cannot erase all, as long as the later people find one place, they can follow the mark to find them.
"First we have to live. Chu Xie didn't know how long they could hold out, he was faintly worried, the demon snake was eyeing him, he couldn't know where it would come out from, when it would come out, and the future of following the Heavenly Demon Gate was also uncertain, the unknown made people feel frightened, he hadn't experienced this kind of taste for more than twenty years.
The rest of the elders also understood that only by living could they have the possibility of leaving, and they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in their hearts.
Zhao Ziling glanced at Chu Xie, turned his head and said seriously to the three elders: "We will definitely leave here, please believe me." ”
Chu Xie understood that he shouldn't have said that just now, so he didn't say anything more, and walked towards the previous passage.
......
Everyone in the Heavenly Demon Gate who is still below, be careful step by step.
Wu Qi lost his previous ease, cautiously looked at the gossip compass in his hand, turned his body from time to time, fiddled with the compass, and judged the specific direction he was in.
An elder behind him asked, "Deacon Wu, how long will it take to reach the Six-Winged Viper's lair, the three incense sticks on our bodies are only enough for seven days at most, and if we drag it out for a long time, we are afraid that we will be discovered by that evil beast." ”
After all, they have been coming to this cave for more than half a month, and there is not much supply left on their bodies, and if they don't have the three incense they want in the end, they will definitely be discovered by the demon snake with a developed sense of smell, and with the spirit of the demon snake, they will definitely be able to guess the purpose of their group, and they will suffer the greatest revenge.
Wu Qi stopped what he was doing and asked, "It's only seven days?"
The elder who spoke first nodded, and took out a packet of three-color incense from his bosom, much less than before he came.
Wu Qi looked at the ground, thought for a while, and said: "Enough, the position we are in is very close to its lair, at the current speed, it only takes four days to get it, and after the success, Ma Shan leaves, even if it is discovered, someone will help us block it for a while, don't worry at all." ”
With that, he quickened his pace and walked towards the fork in the road ahead, hoping to be faster and leave this uncomfortable place as soon as possible.
