This single stone chamber has a stone door, which has become an ice door with a thick layer of ice.

As soon as the old man opened the iron door, an old and dull voice came from the stone room.

"Old friend, you're here, why did you bring someone with you!"

The old man smiled bitterly and signaled Zhao Yu to stay at the door and not move. He pushed open the stone door and said in a lazy tone, "I brought you some food, and a bottle of wine." This little friend is a descendant of Lao Lao I to deliver food. I'm getting old and my legs are useless!"

roar

An earth-shattering roar was like a thunderbolt, and Zhao Yu's eyes were full of stars, and his eyes were black and fainted.

The old man looked at Zhao Yu, who had fainted on the ground, and said to the old man in the stone room: "You are still so cautious, why do you bother, what can he reveal as a child!"

"It's nothing, I just want to catch up with old friends, and it's a little inconvenient to have a third person here. The old man in the stone room sighed.

The old man snorted with great contempt.

The old man in the stone room said: "For more than a hundred years, he has harmed you like this, and he has robbed you of your position, do you hate him?"

The old man said, "Didn't you also suffer a hundred years in prison because of him?"

"If I hadn't been plotted by him, would I have been trapped here?" said the old man in the stone room dissatisfied.

"Isn't it retribution that you did all the bad things back then and mutilated the innocent?" said the old man sneered.

"Hmph, retribution, you think I don't know the real purpose of him trapping me here. The secret of your Chaokun Sect, I'm afraid you know better than I do!" The old man in the stone room sneered.

The old man's face changed, and he said indifferently: "What is the secret of that!"

The old man in the stone room said: "He trapped me here, if he hadn't kept forcing me to hand over the Fire Spirit Bead, I'm afraid he would have abolished my Taoism and made me a waste." He wasted so much effort to collect the Five Spirit Beads, don't I know his true intentions. Hehe, old friend, you have ended up like this, I'm afraid it has something to do with the secret of your Chaokun Sect. ”

The old man of Gray Chen said angrily: "Old Monster of Fire, you are bloodthirsty and killing, locking you here is to make you repent and change, if you are let out, the lives of the world will be ruined!"

The fire old monster sneered: "So, I have to thank you for the kindness of Chaokun Sect!"

The old man said, "You can do it yourself." He put down the food and wine, picked up the unconscious Zhao Yu and limped away.

The old fire monster said to himself: "Don't think that you want to trap me with the power of two spirit beads, I will always go out!"

Two hours later, Zhao Yu woke up from his coma, and he felt dizzy. He patted his head, looked up suddenly, and was startled, the old man was sitting on the edge of his bed, looking at him lightly.

Zhao Yu said hesitantly: "Why am I here?

The old man didn't answer his question, and said lightly: "It's okay if you're fine, take a good rest, I'll come back tomorrow morning." ”

Zhao Yu snorted. The old man turned around and left. He sat on the bed, scratching his hair, trying to recall the scene before he fell unconscious. He said in his heart: "Why did I faint when I was so decent, is it too cold inside?" He pondered for a long time, but he couldn't think of the real reason, so he simply stopped thinking about it. He took out the earth spirit bead from his arms and looked at it carefully for a moment, the yellow bead lay quietly in his hand, like a sleeping child. With a wave of his right hand, he said to the earth spirit bead in his left hand: "Get up, get up!"

For a long time, the Earth Spirit Bead remained motionless.

Zhao Yu was speechless and casually put the Earth Spirit Bead into his arms, and said depressedly: "What's the matter? According to the Thick Earth Determination Technique, I should be able to enter the realm of exorcism and operate the Earth Spirit Bead." Why is this earth spirit bead still motionless, is it not my cultivation yet home? Hey, forget it!"

Taoist cultivation is divided into the three realms of gathering spirits, driving away things, and controlling spirits.

Gathering spirits is the stage of feeling the aura of heaven and earth, and when you reach the realm of exorcism and control the magic weapon, you can be regarded as a true cultivator.

Breaking through the realm of gathering spirits and entering the realm of exorcism is the dream of many cultivators. Many cultivators have cultivated all their lives and have not been able to break through this realm. But all cultivators will have some experience in cultivation taught by their masters, and there are very few people like Zhao Yu who have no famous teachers to teach and cultivate on their own. Because of this, he has put in several times the efforts of ordinary people.

The next morning, the old man Gray Chen arrived as promised, still like yesterday, and took Zhao Yu to the kitchen to get the food first, and then distributed them to the prisoners in the ice prison one by one.

On the way, the old man began to tell Zhao Yu about the origin of the cold and ice prison. and who the people imprisoned inside are, so that Zhao Yu can remember everything he says. He gave Zhao Yu a general introduction to all the prisoners in the Cold Ice Heavy Prison, but the old man in the last stone room didn't say a word.

Zhao Yu asked the old man Gray Chen curiously, and he was also stunned in a daze, as if he was reminiscing about the past.

The old man didn't say anything, and Zhao Yu didn't ask again.

The old man Gray Chen kept warning Zhao Yu not to stay on the last floor, and to leave in a hurry after delivering the meal, so as not to risk his life.

Zhao Yu looked serious when he saw him mention the mysterious old man in the ice prison, and guessed that the old man must be the big devil that Xiao Ke said in his mouth, and kept his warning in mind.

This new errand is to go to the kitchen every morning to get some food and deliver a meal to the prisoners in the ice prison.

The people in the ice prison are all profound monks. Anyone who cultivates to a certain level will not starve to death without eating for a few days, but these prisoners have done all the bad things and have been abolished by Chaokun Sect, and at this time they are no different from ordinary people. Bringing them a meal a day is to keep them alive so that they don't starve to death.

On the third day, the old man Gray Chen still took Zhao Yu to deliver a meal, and he handed over all the tokens and keys to enter the Ice Prison to Zhao Yu, it seems that he plans to be the shopkeeper.

The old man of Gray Chen told Zhao Yu some precautions, so he asked him to deliver food to the prisoners in the ice prison alone every day in the future, and told him where he lived, and warned Zhao Yu that it was okay not to disturb him.

On the fourth day, Zhao Yu went to work alone.

It was cold and cold in the ice prison, especially on the last layer, and the frozen man had a fight with his teeth, so he put down his meal and left. Sometimes he saw that the prisoners who were chained were pitiful, and he always served them more food, which was the only thing he could do as an outer disciple.

Every day when the prisoners hear people coming, they will scold loudly, from the founding patriarch of Chaokun Sect to the current head of the Qingxu real person, and some directly scold Zhao Yu for being a little bastard and a little bastard.

Zhao Yu didn't hear these scoldings, and thought to himself: "Why don't you scold me a few words, is it a lot easier?"

The fifth floor is the quietest, the old man inside rarely scolds, the stone door is not locked, Zhao Yu is very curious about who is locked inside, and he wants to push open the stone door several times to see.

He thought about the old man's admonition, and every time he arrived here, he felt a strange sense of oppression, and he didn't dare to linger, so he put down the food at the door and ran away in a hurry.

This new errand is very leisurely, and it only takes a little more than an hour to complete every morning, and the rest of the day is fine. Zhao Yu went to the kitchen to help when he had free time.

Xiao Ke heard Zhao Yu say that there was no danger in the cold and ice prison, and when he was idle every day, he drooled with envy, and muttered in his heart: "This kid is so lucky to encounter this kind of good errand." This errand in the kitchen is exhausting, and my life is miserable!"

More time, Zhao Yu still hid in the house to practice the Thick Earth Decision and the Demon Sutra.

His residence was relatively remote and rarely visited. Since the old man Gray Chen handed over all the errands to him, he hadn't seen each other for a month or two, which made Zhao Yu even more worrying about the secret of his solo cultivation being discovered.

According to the regulations of Chaokun Sect, if a disciple of the outer sect steals a master to learn the arts, he will be abandoned and executed.

At the beginning, Zhao Yu was still a little worried, but later there was no way, if he didn't practice the Demon Sutra, the evil qi in his body would explode and make people crazy, like a madman.

The strange thing is that with the improvement of the Dao, he feels that the evil qi in his body is also increasing day by day, but the Demon Sutra can always maintain a balance with the evil qi in his body, which makes him look without a little evil qi on the outside.

Since then, Zhao Yu has started a new life in Chaokun Sect, and after finishing his work every day, he secretly cultivates.

For a few months, everything was fine, and such a life was pleasant, until one day he put his meal at the door of the stone chamber at the bottom of the ice prison and was ready to leave.

The old fire monster in the stone room said: "Boy, you put down your meal all day and run faster than a rabbit, are you afraid that Lao Tzu will eat you alive?"

Zhao Yu, as usual, planned to ignore it.

Suddenly, I heard a loud bang in the stone room, as if something was hitting the wall violently, and after a long time, there was no sound at all.

Zhao Yu was shocked and guessed, could it be that the old devil couldn't keep his loneliness and committed suicide by hitting the wall?
