Chapter 14 Friends and Slow

Since Lao Mai and Yu Mu connected their telepathy yesterday, they answered with their minds every once in a while, so more than a day has passed, Yu Mu is still closed to his five senses, he has no idea about everything around him, and he doesn't know where he is.

Lao Mai and Yu Mu's telepathy seems to ignore distance, in fact, there is still a distinction between far and near, and the distance is very clear, and the distance is a little blurry.

He had just spoken to Yu Mu once, and he felt a strong sense of clarity, and he was already sure that Yu Mu was in the valley, and his feet sped up.

The valley seems to be a passageway, and although it is full of shrubs and grasses, there is still a very clean path in the middle, and it is faintly visible that it enters the path.

The valley path into the mountain is inclined upwards and narrows as you go, and at the end you have to drill through a crack in the mountain with stone steps for people to climb up the stairs.

The mountain crack like a line of heaven is very narrow and long, nearly 100 meters long, and Lao Mai did not hesitate to go straight through.

He didn't think that there would be an ambush here, and the despicable gang that carried out this conspiracy, since he had set up an ambush to lure him here, he would definitely know that he was a high-level pure earth cultivator, and setting up an ambush in this kind of terrain would be beneficial to him.

The dark mountain crevices are flickering by, and there is a deep valley in front of you, a bit like the small valley where Mu Qingzi lives in seclusion, except that there are not so many ancient trees, and the area covered is much larger.

At the end of the valley, there is a tall six-story wooden tower-like building, the shape is very ancient, the appearance is mottled, and the inside of the tower is dark and unlit.

Although it was the height of summer, the tower surrounded by many coniferous trees seemed a little quiet and gloomy, Lao Mai felt that Yu Mu must be in the tower, he calmed his mind, and slowed down when he approached the tower.

At this time, suddenly a transmission note floated down from the tower, and the voice inside was so stiff that it was like an electronic synthesized sound, and I couldn't hear the accent of where it was: "Since Daoyou is here, please go up to the fourth floor to speak." ”

Lao Mai sneered in his heart: "The bastard who hides his head and tail, he really can't help me, otherwise he would have set up a battle formation outside." ”

He stepped up the steps of the tower gate and walked straight into the open gate, where he saw that the wide ground floor tower was empty, and only the staircase that curved up the side of the wall.

Lao Mai walked steadily on the wooden stairs, going up layer by layer, and the second and third floors were also empty, and there was not even an ordinary table, chair and bench.

He finally stepped on the fourth floor to take a look, and the building was densely packed with all kinds of tables, chairs and benches, and everything on the first, second and third floors had been completely moved to this floor.

Only the middle is empty, and a walkway leads to it, with a futon in the center.

On the futon, a man in white sat cross-legged, a man in white who was indisputable, his body was motionless, his head drooped, and his face was covered by long black hair, sitting there like Sadako from "Midnight Bell".

When Lao Mai saw this situation at the top of the stairs, he immediately stopped and answered Yu Mu in his heart.

The closer the distance, the stronger the telepathy, and when he compared, he realized that the orientation was wrong, as if her position was upstairs, not the Sadako on the fourth floor, who was now drooping her head.

He snorted coldly in his heart, turned around and was about to go upstairs, but saw the sadako on the fourth floor with a drooping head raise his head and call eagerly: "Daoyou, slow down! ”

Old Mai suddenly turned around, staring coldly at the Sadako-shaped man who still had long hair covering his face.

The man didn't dare to show his true face, feeling the pressure of Lao Mai's gaze, he hurriedly reached out to cover the hair covering his face.

Lao Mai stared at him, took a step under his feet, and the true yuan power in his body suddenly transferred, and a huge Jindan realm spiritual pressure rushed straight towards the man.

The man was unexpectedly attacked by Lao Mai's fierce spiritual pressure aura, and weakly flipped backwards with a somersault, and fell to the ground with a flick of his long hair, struggling to get up very hard.

At that moment, Lao Mai could see his face clearly, he was a middle-aged man with bulging cheekbones and a thin face, a strange cultivator he had never met.

At this time, Lao Mai had already seen that this person's cultivation realm was only in the early stage of foundation building, and he would not be a key figure among the ambushers, at most he was just a pretending bait.

He ignored the man, looked upstairs, and walked up the stairs to the fifth floor.

Just a few steps on the steps, he suddenly heard a chaotic sound upstairs, he was worried that Yu Mu had some accident, and hurriedly pinched the magic trick with his hand, a short-distance teleportation method, and immediately stood at the staircase on the fifth floor.

I saw seven or eight futons littered on the floor on the fifth floor, all of which were unattended, and a wooden chair was placed in the middle, in which was a slender young woman, still with long hair covering her face, and holding a travel bag with a cartoon pattern in her arms.

Lao Mai felt it, and his heart relaxed, this woman must be Yu Mu.

He didn't walk in immediately, but first observed the floor with his divine sense, and there didn't seem to be anything abnormal, and then he walked in slowly.

Lao Mai walked up to Yu Mu and saw that she was still wearing pajamas with doll patterns, barefoot, and hurriedly picked up her little head and brushed her hair, only to see her eyes closed, as if she was sleeping peacefully, and she didn't feel anything about Lao Mai's actions.

He stretched out his hand to grasp her veins, and found that several veins on her body were sealed by foreign true yuan forces, causing the five senses to be closed and unable to perceive the movements of the outside world, so he carefully conveyed his own true yuan power to drive out those foreign true yuan forces one by one.

Yu Mu woke up immediately, and at first glance, he saw Lao Mai's big flat-headed Chinese face, and shouted happily with a smile: "Brother Mai, you are here!"

Lao Mai smiled and didn't speak, touched her head, took off her backpack, and carried it in reverse, that is, the backpack containing things was in front, and Yu Mu's seat was in the back.

Yu Mu came to his senses as soon as he could, looked at the flower pajamas on his body shyly, bit his lip, took out a set of denim clothes from the travel backpack and changed into them, stuffed the changed pajamas into the backpack, tied his hair, and put the backpack on his back.

Lao Mai squatted down and let Yu Mu sit in his pocket, stepped on the soft cloth rope loop under the backpack in front of him, and then stood up.

These movements, which had been done several times at home before, were now naturally ripe, and at the same time did not forget to stuff a packet of Dove biscuits and chocolates into her.

When Lao Mai was ready, he transported the True Yuan Force and turned it into Earth-based Gang Qi, forming a protective body defense cover, wrapping the two of them and the clothes around them, and was about to go out.

But I saw a transmission note float in, and a few muddy voices came out: "Mai Daoyou, your awakening method and inheritance technique are very important to me and other cultivators in this realm, we will exchange it with you at all costs, please consider it." ”

Lao Mai also practiced the transmission note, and he was too lazy to take it out at this time, so he raised his voice and said: "I have already said that there is no such thing as awakening, and it is unintentional to get the inheritance exercises, and the exercises cannot be exchanged, I'm sorry." ”

At this time, I only heard a very dull voice outside the tower saying: "In this way, don't blame me for catching you and searching for souls, you know, what are the consequences of being searched for souls." ”

Lao Mai sneered, ignoring the crooked voices outside, walked to the staircase, unfolded his divine sense and began to investigate, to see what formation was arranged in the tower.

This check surprised him, and he was afraid: "Fortunately, I didn't go into the fourth floor, it turned out that the fourth floor was covered with a gold iron cage trapped in the array, and after I went in, the bait ran away, and the ban was activated, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape in the later stage of Jindan, and those tables, chairs and benches that are estimated to be also materialized, with thick steel on the outside, fire on the inside, and maybe the blessing of the wood exercises, you have to peel off the skin if you don't die." ”

At this moment, he remembered the words of the Heavenly Machine Sect Master's warning from the earth: "The southerners are ambushed, and the fire is gold," and at the same time, he also felt that it was a little wrong, and the current situation on the fourth floor seemed to be inside the fire and outside the gold.

After another investigation, I found that there was a composite formation prohibition on the outer wall of the tower, and the five systems of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth were all mixed, and it was estimated that not all of them were jointly laid down by the cultivators of the Great Perfection Realm in the modern foundation building period, but they were left over from ancient times and repaired by later generations.

He then wanted to climb up to the sixth floor to see if the prohibition there was weaker, but before he could act, he suddenly heard a bang from the sixth floor, and a burst of fire smoke came down from the staircase, and it turned out that the large array had already started a fire attack.

Although Lao Mai had already laid down the earth-based Gangqi Imperial Body, he was still afraid of being penetrated by the fire caused by the exercises, so he ran quickly along the stairs to the ground hall at the bottom of the tower.

The door to the outside of the ground floor hall was closed, apparently the formation had been activated, and it was completely closed.

At this time, the raging fire spread down the wooden staircase, and the entire tower had been banned by the gold system, but it was violently burned inside, and the walls of the wooden tower were still unmoving, except for the thickened iron cage trapped on the fourth floor, this tower was also a large iron cage trapped array.

At this time, Yu Mu saw bursts of fierce fire chasing them down, and he had already lost his face, and his hands wrapped around Lao Mai's neck, trembling all over.

Lao Mai saw that Yu Mu couldn't withstand this kind of scene, so he had no choice but to close her five senses again, only soothing her in his mind and making her feel at ease.

Seeing the fire approaching above, Lao Mai used his divine sense to observe the surroundings again, and the five-series formation was still very strong, and he couldn't break it hard for a while, so he stepped on the wooden floor with his foot, feeling the echo of metallic texture.

At this point, he completely understood what the warning words of the machine meant, "on fire and under the gold".

On his head is equivalent to a powerful iron cage, as well as the five-series forbidden siege left over from ancient times and reinforced by later generations, and mainly attacked by fire, and the bottom is undoubtedly a thickened cast iron base, so that he can be trapped in the local area.

The fire pressed to the staircase on the ground floor, no longer advancing, only burning in the local area, bursts of heat wave pressing, although it was not a real fire, its fire heat was not something ordinary people could resist.

Since the ban and fire attack were launched, even the transmission notes inside could not fly, and internal and external calls could only be made by roaring.

I saw the people outside shouting loudly: "Mai Daoyou, give you one last chance, hand over the awakening method and inheritance exercises, leave you alive, don't be obsessed, you must know that greed for life is the instinct of cultivators." ”

The rolling heat wave inside couldn't help Lao Mai, and he didn't bother to pay attention to the shouts of persuasion outside, just as a dog barked, but he was constantly analyzing the situation in his heart.

Obviously, this wooden pagoda is a five-system composite formation prohibition handed down from ancient times, and it has been weakened for a long time, and at this time, its function is not something that can be broken in a short period of time by himself in the early stage of Jindan.
