At this time, Na Jiao Gongxian took Yi Dan, Du Gao, Du Qian's uncle and nephew, rode fast horses, and ran towards the road to Yuzhou.

After arriving at the boundary of Luzhou, Yi Dan suddenly remembered that this Luzhou was the place he originally wanted to come, and it was also Xu Gui and Mu Yongxiao who told him that in Changqingshan, Annan, there was a woman who was born in seclusion. The purpose of Yi Dan's resignation to Annan was to visit the heroine. So he hurriedly asked Jiao Gongxian: "Brother Jiao, may I ask if there is a place called Changqing Mountain in this Zhou?"

Jiao Gongxian asked curiously, "That's right, why do you know Changqing Mountain, Miss Yi?"

Yi Dan said: "I have heard a few friends in the rivers and lakes mention it. They say that in Changqing Mountain, there is a mysterious and reclusive female knight, she likes to be with birds and beasts, her body is flexible, her martial arts are strong, her cultivation is profound, and she is mysterious. May I ask if there is really such a person in Changqing Mountain?"

Jiao Gongxian said: "That's right, I know that there was indeed such a woman in Changqing Mountain. Moreover, the lord once sent someone to invite her, wanting to ask her to serve me Annan, but she categorically refused the lord's messenger several times. ”

Yi Dan asked, "What about later?"

Jiao Gongxian said: "Not long ago, I heard that she had left Changqing Mountain and her whereabouts were unknown. ”

Yi Dan said: "What? Hey, it's a pity, my junior brother and I came to Annan this time just to visit the woman." I didn't expect to miss it again. ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "Then it's really not the right time for you to come, if you came here half a year ago, maybe you might still meet her." ”

Yi Dan hurriedly asked, "May I ask Brother Jiao, what is the name of this woman, where should I find her?"

Jiao Gongxian said: "No one knows her name, and I only heard that she is dignified and beautiful, and she is kind and kind." Good for the company of the forest, but never harming the living. It is rumored that she is good at using a peacock feather as a weapon, so people in the rivers and lakes call her the feather fairy. ”

"Feather Fairy? That's right, that's what Mr. Xu said at the beginning. May I ask Brother Jiao, then this feather fairy, where is she sacred, where am I going to find her again?" Yi Dan hurriedly said.

"As for where she went, I don't really know. But I just heard that she may be from the country of Changhe. If it's true, then I think he should have returned to Changhe Country now, right?" Jiao Gongxian replied.

Yi Dan said: "Okay, I know, it seems that I still have to go to Changhe Country." ”

At this time, Du Qian, who was riding on a horse, asked, "Miss Yi, what are you talking about?"

Yi Dan said: "We are talking about the feather fairy, and it's a pity that we can't see her when we come to Annan this time." ”

Du Qian said: "Miss Yi, are you talking about the feather fairy of Changqing Mountain?"

Yi Dan said: "Yes, Du Gongzi, do you know her?"

Du Qian said: "I used to go in and out of Changqing Mountain, and I am also familiar with many tribes in the west of Changqing Mountain. I've seen that fairy a few times. ”

Yi Dan listened to Du Qian's words, and immediately showed a happy expression and asked, "Yes, have you really seen this feather fairy?

Du Qian said: "Yes, I know that she likes flowers, birds, fish, insects, birds and animals." Her favorite is the peacock, she said that the peacock is not only beautiful, but also very aura. She has generous eyebrows, a kind heart, and is very kind to others, but she is a little uncannibalistic. ”

Yi Dan asked, "Then may I ask if she has a chivalrous heart?"

Du Qian said: "Whether she has a chivalrous heart or not, I don't know this." But I knew she must have a loving heart. ”

Yi Dan said: "That's great, may I ask Du Gongzi, do you know where this fairy is now?"

Du Qian said: "She used to live in a wooden house in the Changqing Mountain, but now it seems that she is no longer there. ”

Yi Dan asked, "Then do you know where she is now?"

Du Qian said: "I don't know this, I only know that she was originally from Nanzhao, but later Nanzhao was usurped and became Changheguo, so she lived in seclusion in Annan." A few days ago, I heard that a few people from Changhe Kingdom went to Changqingshan to look for her, and then the feather fairy disappeared. I think she should be back to Changheguo, right?"

Yi Dan said: "Well, I understand, since you all say so, it seems that it is really possible for this fairy to return to Changhe Kingdom." ”

Jiao Gongxian asked, "Miss Yi, why did you go to find that feather fairy?"

Yi Dan said: "This matter is a long story, and when I have time in the future, I will talk to a few more people in detail." ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "That's good." You see, after passing the town in front of you, you will reach Ziyun Valley after walking a few miles further. We all have to be careful, there are many mechanisms in the valley, and not ordinary people can break in. ”

Yi Dan said: "Well, okay, we must be careful. ”

As he passed through the town, Jiao Gongxian stopped in front of a shop selling sesame oil. He dismounted and walked into the store and said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, bring me two catties of sesame oil." ”

The shopkeeper took out an empty gourd, loaded it with two catties of sesame oil and handed it to Jiao Gongxian: "Five copper coins with oil and pot." ”

Jiao Gongxian handed the money to the man, and then pulled more than ten feet of linen cloth in a cloth shop next door. He put away the sackcloth and took the gourd, mounted his horse and continued on his way.

Yi Dan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother Jiao, what are you buying oil and ripping cloth for?"

Du Gao said jokingly: "Yes, your daughter-in-law bought it, right?"

Jiao Gongxian hurriedly explained: "Oh, no. These are all spare things, don't explain them yet, and you'll know when they come. ”

When Yi Dan and the four of them came to Ziyun Valley, they saw a wooden bridge in front of them, and when the wooden bridge passed, it was all a stone road. The road is paved with dots of white glue, which looks very obvious.

Jiao Gongxian said: "It seems that my Uncle Zhen has gone out. ”

Yi Dan asked, "How can you see it?"

Jiao Gongxian said: "He has opened the mechanism, which proves that he is not in the village, we must be cautious." ”

After that, Jiao Gongxian sat on the trunk of the big tree on the side of the road, looked forward for a while, and then said: "My master is also imprisoned here, and I have come to Uncle Zhen many times to ask for someone, but he used the lord as an excuse to prevaricate me. Today is the opportunity to take this opportunity, if we can rescue Master and his old man, it will be great. ”

Yi Dan said: "Okay, let's find a way together to rescue all the people who should be saved." ”

Jiao Gongxian nodded, tore the cloth he bought in the town just now, cut it into eight equal parts, handed two copies to each person, and then said, "Everyone wrap the cloth under their feet first." ”

Although everyone didn't know what Jiao Gongxian was going to do, they all obeyed the instructions and wrapped the sackcloth around the soles of their feet.

"Well, it's done. Yi Dan got up and said.

"Okay" At this time, Jiao Gongxian unscrewed the lid of the gourd and smeared the sesame oil on the linen cloth under everyone's feet.

Du Gao asked jokingly: "Jiao Daxia, what are you doing? Smear oil under your feet, are we going to slip away?"

Jiao Gongxian didn't speak, and the smart Yi Dan seemed to understand something, so he said: "Du Daxia, Du Gongzi." This oil is the nemesis of glue, and if we apply oil to the soles of our feet, we are not afraid of being sticked. Is that big brother?"

Jiao Gongxian said: "Yes, Miss Yi is really ice and snow smart. Everyone is following in my footsteps, don't make a mistake. ”

So, the four people who smeared oil on the soles of their feet, under the leadership of Jiao Gongxian, walked across the stone bridge, and began to step on it impartially along the stone pavement where there was white glue.

At this time, Du Qian, who followed at the end, asked: "Jiao Daxia, why don't we walk on a clean road?

Jiao Gongxian said: "There are mechanisms where there is no glue, so please be sure to follow me." ”

Du Qian said: "Oh, I understand. But what about the open space next to here, can't you walk over?"

Jiao Gongxian was in front, and while carefully leading the way, he said: "These flat open spaces are all illusions, but in fact, they are all clay underneath, and if people step on them, they will not be able to pull them out." ”

"I see, it's terrible. Thankfully, I didn't step on it. Du Qian said.

"The raw material for my Uncle Zhen's secret weapon 'tearing skin' is called rubber bean vine, which grows from these clays. Don't underestimate it, once you get into it, it's hard to pull it out. Please follow in my footsteps, and don't touch other places. ”

Everyone understood what Jiao Gongxian meant, so they all followed his pace closely, not daring to be out of shape.

Walking and walking, Du Qian, who suddenly followed closely at the end, accidentally stepped on a wrong step. Stepped on the floor tiles without glue.

"Whoosh whoosh" Many random arrows suddenly shot out on both sides of the aisle, and the arrows were not shot from a high position, at most more than a foot above the ground.

"Everyone be careful" With Yi Dan's shout, everyone hurriedly jumped up from the ground hand in hand, avoiding the random arrows.

When everyone landed on the ground together, they stepped back on the ground that had been paved, and the ground suddenly opened and collapsed like a door. Everyone's light work lost its support and they all fell into the deep pit.

Dense lines of sharp arrows are inserted under the tunnel, facing the top.

Jiao Gongxian and Du Gao, who were the first, hurriedly propped themselves on the ground with spears and halberds. Then, with the help of the gun and halberd, he jumped out of the arrow pit. Immediately afterwards, Jiao Gongxian threw the spear in his hand to Yi Dan, who propped the spear on the ground and jumped out of the arrow pit.

And only Du Qian, when he landed just now, he fell on the side of the road. When the ground collapsed, he grabbed the crumbling edge of the pit with one hand, and the whole person hung in the air. He looked down at the arrow pit below, and his body went limp with fear.

"Du Gongzi, be careful. Yi Dan looked up and saw that the stone on the top of the pit was about to fall off, so he shouted.

Du Qian retracted his legs and wanted to climb up. However, his feet were dangling in the air, and he had no point of strength, and he could not climb up, but while struggling, one of his shoes fell into the arrow pit.

He shouted anxiously and fearfully, "Uncle, save me..."

Du Gao looked at the crumbling Du Qian and was very anxious. But because of the danger of the arrow pit, he couldn't think of a way.

When it was extremely urgent, Yi Dan hurriedly took out the nine-section whip on his waist. At this time, Du Qian finally couldn't support it anymore and fell down with the stone in his hand.

"Ahh If you fall into the pit of arrows, you will surely die.

The three of them were stunned with fright, and Yi Dan quickly threw out the whip, wrapped around Du Qian's waist, and then dragged Du Qian, who immediately fell into the arrow pit, over.

At this time, the stone gate mechanism on the ground closed with Du Qian's fall. The cave was pitch black, and nothing could be seen.

After Du Qian was saved, he was shocked and hugged Yi Dan.

Yi Dan asked, "Du Gongzi, how are you?"

Du Qian came back to his senses at this time, and quickly let go of Yi Dan, and said: "I thought I was dead, thank you Miss Yi for saving me, thank you so much!"

Yi Dan said: "Du Gongzi, don't talk first, take a breath." ”

Jiao Gongxian took out the fire, lit it, looked around and said, "It seems that this should be the underground cell that Uncle Zhen is responsible for guarding." ”

Yi Dan looked forward and saw the dense tunnels in front of him, staggered, so he said: "This underground road looks complicated, how do we go so that we don't make mistakes?"

Jiao Gongxian said: "I heard that this dungeon is built according to the gossip trend in the sixty-four hexagrams of Zhou Yi, let's face the yin and yang heart and go to the right." As long as we follow the position of the yang hexagram in the gossip, it will definitely be right. But don't touch the wall again. ”

Du Qian said: "I'm sorry everyone, I accidentally touched the mechanism just now. ”

"It's okay, Du Gongzi, you don't have to blame yourself too much, after all, these organs are not set up by you. Yi Dan said.

Jiao Gongxian looked at the hexagram traces marked on the wall and said: "Here are the yang on both sides, and the yin in the middle should be the fire separation hexagram in the gossip." When you walk, walk on both sides, never in the middle. ”

Du Gao asked curiously, "But there seems to be no difference between the middle and the two sides of this road." ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "Because of this, you must follow the instructions of the hexagram, otherwise there will definitely be no return." This underground city is all-encompassing and ever-changing. It is said that the drawings of its construction are the drawings of the great minister Yuan Tiangang who built a tomb for himself. Later, it flowed to the people, and then fell to Jiaowutang. Master Jiaowu built this underground gossip dark city according to that drawing. My ancestor, Huo Yingguang, originally retreated here and practiced martial arts. Later, the ancestor died in Guangzhou, and the old lord also died. The new lord has transformed this place into an underground prison for opponents. I've never been here, but I've heard of it, so trust me and don't mess around. ”

Yi Dan said: "Okay, we believe in you, Brother Jiao, please lead the way quickly." ”

Under the leadership of Jiao Gongxian, everyone circled around the outer circle indicated by the gossip hexagram, followed all the yang hexagram routes, carefully, and everyone followed the footprints of their predecessors and walked forward, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

When passing through the Shuikan hexagram and the Lei Zhen hexagram, Jiao Gongxian reminded: "Everyone here should be very careful, these two hexagrams have only one yang hexagram, don't go wrong, the yang hexagram of the Shuikan hexagram is in the middle, and the yang hexagram of the Lei Zhen hexagram is in the innermost, please follow my footsteps." ”

Everyone followed the footsteps led by Jiao Gongxian, carefully followed the gossip hexagram in a circle, and finally came to the Dikun hexagram safely.

Yi Dan asked puzzledly: "Brother Jiao, there is no yang hexagram in this place, how should we go now?"

Jiao Gongxian said: "This kun hexagram is the gate to enter the cage, but if we go the wrong way in front, this is the door of death." ”

Yi Dan asked, "We are already here, but there is nothing here, how should we enter the prison door?"

Jiao Gongxian stood still and stretched out the spear in his hand. The two ends of the Yin hexagram in the middle of the Dikun hexagram were tapped separately.

"Boom boom" came with a few loud noises, and the ground where the earth kun hexagram was located at this time suddenly sank. In a few moments, a round platform rose from the ground.

Jiao Gongxian said happily: "Okay, it's successful, let's go over quickly" After that, Jiao Gongxian propped the spear on the ground and flew to the round platform with the help of his strength to stand firm.

Yi Dan and Du Qian Du Gao also jumped up. The four of them stood on the round platform, at which point the round platform began to automatically lower to the ground.

Zhen Zhen was originally ordered by Qu Chengmei, the envoy of Jinghai Jiedu, to arrest Xiao Rui'er, who fled from the Central Plains to Annan. And Qu Chengmei had no intention of surrendering to the Central Plains Liang, but she didn't dare to offend the Central Plains court, so she let the lustful Zhen Zhen chase after him and do things perfunctorily. And Zhen Zhen is so lustful, when he learned that Xiao Ruier was a beauty, he naturally enjoyed it. Zhen Zhen wanted to cover up his evil heart under his hypocritical face. So he sent two of his disciples to arrest Rui'er.

After some playing, he finally caught Rui'er, but he didn't expect to kill Jiang Yizhong halfway and snatch the duck that Zhen Zhen got his hands on, which made Zhen Zhen feel very annoyed and angry, and at this time he was staggering depressedly and walked back to his lair.

As soon as he arrived at the stone bridge outside Ziyun Valley, Zhen Zhen found that there were random arrows on the ground. He stared darkly and solemnly at the mess on the ground. The apprentice next to him said, "Master, it seems that our mechanism has been moved, it seems that someone has come?"

Zhen Zhen said to his apprentice: "Go under the bridge, open the mechanism and let me see." ”

So the apprentice ran under the stone bridge, twisted an inconspicuous stone on the wall, and the ground opened downwards as before.

Zhen Zhen stood at the entrance of the organ and looked down, but saw no one falling into the arrow pit, but saw a shoe stuck in an arrow.

So he pondered. The disciple asked, "Master, what's going on?"

Zhen Zhen: "Someone has entered the cell, you hurry up and seal the trap so that he doesn't have a chance to escape." We're going to catch turtles in an urn. ”

The disciple pressed down a brick under the stone bridge, and the mechanism on the ground was sealed.

Zhen Zhen avoided the glue on the ground, ran over the ordinary stone pavement, and returned to a house deep in the valley.

At this time underground, when the round platform descended to the lower level, everyone was stunned by what they saw. This is a very large and dark underground palace, eight huge pillars, supporting the roof of the double-storey palace, the stone pillars on the exquisite carvings of elephants and peacocks, it can be seen that this was once a magnificent underground castle. What's even more incredible is that now both sides of this underground palace are all iron fences, and many unkempt and unrecognizable people are imprisoned inside. They may be frightened, or sluggish, or insane, or manic. They all looked at the four of Yi Dan in unison.

"These people?" Yi Dan asked.

"That's right, these should be opponents of the Lord's public relations. I've heard that now in Daluo City, anyone who opposes the new main highway line will disappear into thin air. It turns out they're all locked up here. Jiao Gongxian said.

In this way, this song Chengmei is not a good type. Yi Dan said.

"Hey, in his position, in his government. Whether it is right or wrong, I am the one who was raised by the water and soil, and we can only carry out the orders of the lord. Jiao Gongxian said.

"Brother Jiao, you are foolish. Yi Dan said.

"Anyway, I can't change anything on my own. Let's not talk about it for now, let's hurry up and find my master. Jiao Gongxian said.

Under the leadership of Jiao Gongxian, everyone searched in the corridor around the hall.

"I'm not wrong, let me go, I'm not wrong, please let me go..."

Yi Dan and Du Qian glanced at each other, and they both shuddered. I suddenly felt that the eerie atmosphere here was really a scene from the legendary hell.

Yi Dan walked and carefully observed left and right, and kept shouting, "Senior brother, junior brother, where are you?" but the whole cell turned around, and she couldn't hear the familiar voice responding to her. (To be continued.) )
