Sunlight poured down the steep black cliffs like a waterfall, shining on the giant trees that clinged to the edge of the cliffs. These trees are very strange, their thick roots are like human blood vessels embedded in the surface of the earth, and the root system of the smallest one can cover a radius of more than 30 zhang.

The trunk of the tree was so tall and swollen that three or five adults might not be able to close their arms outstretched. The purple-brown tree was uneven and covered with fist-sized scars, and from a distance it looked like a thousand strange eyes that had opened their eyes.

Its canopy was like a giant hand reaching into the sky, blooming almost straight upward, and dark purple vines fell down from a height of dozens of feet, and the wind blew like layers of curtains gently swaying.

Princess Yicheng woke up slowly, and found that her body was firmly entangled in several arm-thick vines and hung in the air, constantly swinging around in the clouds and fog.

She was stunned, and saw a Dao talisman on her chest crookedly. The Dao rune shimmered, and the spiritual power it emitted seemed to be just right against the power of the tree vines. It is precisely because of this that she was not strangled to death by the few vines wrapped around her body, and then turned from a dead corpse into a delicious nourishment for a giant tree. And these vines are attached to the giant tree that is revered and feared by the Turks and called the "Sacred Tree of Rest".

She concentrated to inspect the condition in her body, the dantian had been shattered into ruins, and the meridians were broken and twisted in many places, and the magic skills that she had once relied on to dominate the desert were now almost gone.

She was silent for a moment, and suddenly let out a strange laugh, her body shook violently, and the wounds that had just been scabbed over were cracked one after another, oozing red blood dripping down one by one.

She didn't seem to feel the pain in her body, and she gasped violently and laughed strangely, but her expression was hideous and terrifying.

Diao Xiaosi was meditating under the tree, and was woken up by the piercing laughter of Princess Yicheng above his head, raised his eyelids and looked at her and asked Li Daimo, "Is the old woman crazy?"

Li Daimo was noncommittal, and replied after a while: "Is she normal?"

Diao Xiaosi thought so, stood up and took out a copper plate and threw it on Princess Yicheng and said, "Hey, old pious woman, you can laugh worse than a dead person, how did you do it, teach me?"

Princess Yicheng's ghost-crying wolf-like laughter stopped abruptly, and she condescendingly looked at Diao Xiaosi and said: "I laugh, you are a coward, you don't even dare to kill a half-dead old woman! Don't you hate me to the core? Why, I'm here, just like a fish and a piece of meat on a chopping board, I only need you a knife to return to heaven! What are you waiting for, are you afraid that I will turn into a ghost and seek revenge on you after I die?"

"I understand what you mean, but you are mistaken, you didn't rob my wife and didn't kill my mother, why should I hate you?" Diao Xiaosi shook his head, and said with disdain: "You look down on yourself too much, and you don't pee and take pictures, like an old owl that has only plucked out its hair, old and ugly, crying and making trouble, not to say that you are a phoenix." ”

"You won't kill me?" Princess Yicheng was stunned, and the corners of her lips flashed with a cold and vicious sneer: "Little bastard, do you know what kind of place this isβ€”the Valley of Eternal Rest, the cemetery where the Turkic ancestor Yizhi rebelled and lived after his death, no one can get out of the place where he went alive......! Do you still dare to say you don't hate me?"

Diao Xiaosi didn't bother to pay attention to her, quickly took off a pair of tattered boots, took off the black and dirty cloth socks that could no longer be seen, and walked over with bated breath.

Princess Yicheng was taken aback, and seemed to guess what Diao Xiaosi wanted to do, and said sharply: "You dare, little bastard...... Woohoo......"

Diao Xiaosi twisted Princess Yicheng's nose hard, stuffed a pair of stinky socks into her mouth, and said with a sigh: "Listen to Lao Li, there is a kind of small reptile in this canyon that bites people and is particularly itchy, which is more poisonous than the spotted mosquitoes on the grassland. The next time you dare to scold my mother, I'll stuff a biting little reptile in my socks and stuff it into your mouth. ”

Although Princess Yicheng has a perverse temperament, she is also a pampered golden branch and jade leaf, when has she been insulted like this?

I don't know how long it took for her to wake up again, the smelly socks stuffed in her mouth, but to her horror, she found a pair of hands groping around her body.

She twisted her body vigorously and struggled, staring at Diao Xiaosi angrily with a "whine" sound in her mouth.

Diao Xiaosi stopped his hand, wiped the hot sweat on his forehead, pulled out his socks from Princess Yicheng's mouth and threw them away, and asked, "Tell me quickly, where did you hide all your valuable belongings?"

Princess Yicheng gasped for breath and retched for a long time before she said hatefully: "Don't be complacent too early, soon you won't even be able to cry!"

Diao Xiaosi said indifferently: "Pull it down, Lao Tzu is not a three-year-old child." You say this is a Jedi, it's a Jedi? Isn't it just burying an old guy from hundreds of years ago, what's the big deal? Lao Tzu has been lying on the grave since he was a child, and he has opened more coffins than the little white face you have slept on, and he is still alive. ”

Li Daimo, who had not squeaked for a long time, smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Princess Yicheng didn't lie to you, this is really a Jedi." No living person has ever been able to leave the Valley of Eternal Rest. Not to mention that your cultivation is barely strong enough Mahayana, even if you are a human scattered immortal of the Great Enlightenment Dao, you don't dare to enter the canyon. ”

"According to what you say, no one should know what stones and trees are planted in the valley, where did you hear about it?"

"There is a poem that has been circulated for a long time in the Mobei grassland, with a total of 3,627 words, divided into two volumes. The first volume tells the legend of Yizhi and his son, the Turkic king Ashina, who waded through mountains and rivers to conquer the four directions and founded the great cause of the Turks, while the second volume depicts the scene of the Valley of Eternal Rest and some obscure proverbs. ”

Although Princess Yicheng couldn't get a glimpse of the spiritual exchange between Diao Xiaosi and Li Daimo, she saw that his disapproving face was a little more solemn, so she guessed that he gradually believed his words, and couldn't help but laugh and said: "This canyon is endless, and the cemetery of Yizhi is buried in a hidden place that mortals can never find. Legend has it that it is like a fairyland on earth, there are long-term scenes, the garden of the sun and the moon and the night, the treasure tree and the ceiling, the Qionglou and the jade, and people enter it for thousands of years and are immortal. Unfortunately, even if you can find it, you still can't leave this canyon, and you can only live alone for years, suffering from endless loneliness. ”

Although she was smiling, the unforgettable viciousness and schadenfreude revealed in her tone still made people shudder.

Diao Xiaosiqiang resisted the urge to go up and pull out the remaining half of the old woman's hair, thinking that if this was the case, he could only and must leave this old woman full of bad tastes, and pray for another bad old man to live a long life. Otherwise, if you stay alone in this barren valley where birds don't poop and chickens don't lay eggs, who will inspire you for a long time?

Seeing that Princess Yicheng was rampant, Diao Xiaosi began to pick off her clothes without saying a word.

The old woman was laughing heartily, but she was so happy and sad that she was surprised: "Little ...... Son, what are you going to do?"

"Little Fourth Virtuous Nephew, although the color is not empty, the emptiness is not the same, it is not right to watch people pick fat and thin, but you can't swallow dates, right? You don't have to be so hungry, I can cast an illusion to make you feel like you're surrounded by a whole bunch of young, American, and beautiful girlsβ€”"

Li Daimo gasped and said: "Tall and light, small and exquisite, noble and graceful, rich and plump, young and shy, enthusiastic and unrestrained, cold and dignified, coquettish and charming,...... You can have any kind of favorite category, and the real effect is guaranteed, so that you will never want to use the old woman in front of you - the little four virtuous nephews, I really don't want to......"

"Old Qianpo, hand over all the treasures hidden in your body, Lao Tzu wants you to compensate for the loss of Wukong Grimace. ”

Princess Yicheng was stunned, she couldn't imagine that Diao Xiaosi still wanted to blackmail herself at this time, and roared: "Li Daimo, you son of a bitch, don't you dream of killing me, why are you hiding inside now and not saying anything?"

Li Daimo said tepidly, unhurriedly, and impatiently: "I never wanted to harm you, but you have always wanted to harm me." Now that you can't hurt anyone, we can live in harmony. Of course, you'd better pay attention to your remarks and drop out all words that are not harmonious, including the one you greeted Jia Yan just now. ”

Princess Yicheng snorted coldly, and after a while, she looked at Diao Xiaosi and said, "How do you know that Lu Dao can use the Voidless Grimace to crack my Voidless Body?"

"It's very simple, I know that if you've been to the Voidless Palace, you must know that there is a thousand-year-old ghost living in it. But you didn't refine it, nor did you borrow a few empty grimaces to play with like Lao Tzu, I thought there must be ghosts here. You must know that you are a woman with a strong desire to control, and you will turn a blind eye to those grimaces when you go in and out of the empty hall again and again, which can only show one problem, you can't do anything about it. ”

Diao Xiaosi said: "Later, when we fought, Lao Tzu deliberately released an empty grimace to test your reaction. As a result, you didn't dare to drive it, let alone use it to refine it, but directly smashed it with your palm, which made me believe even more that your guess was correct. ”

"When you entered the Voidless Palace, you were already thinking about dealing with me?"

"Nonsense, take precautions and never be defeated, you don't understand such a simple truth?

Princess Yicheng's face suddenly showed a sneering smile, and said: "You guessed it right, I have been an ancestor of the Turkic Kedun and Wuzang Sect for decades, and I have indeed collected a lot of superb magic treasures in the world with all my heart and pains, all of which are good things that people covet and dream of. It's a pity...... It's all lost. ”

Diao Xiaosi was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "Lost?

Princess Yicheng's ridicule was deeper and stronger, and she simply laughed loudly: "Those magic treasures are all stored in a silver hairpin phoenix, and until it falls into the canyon, it is still inserted in my hair like a shadow and never leaves my body. ”

"On your hair?" Diao Xiaosi stared blankly at Princess Yicheng's half-cloaked and half-slick scalp, and suddenly screamed heartbreakingly: "Why didn't you say it earlier, when did Lao Tzu throw it awayβ€”β€”?"
