"Pa-ta!" There was a dull sound of something falling suddenly from the dark place ahead, and everyone present stopped and breathed, and turned their surprised eyes to the front.

But before they could see what was there, a black shadow quickly rushed towards the group of people holding torches, and the wind passed by.

The fire was extinguished, only the pungent stench mixed with the screams of those people and the slightest sense of dread that made the scalp tingle rippling like water.

Immediately afterwards, everything was quiet, like a moment of peace before the sky collapsed and the earth cracked.

"Hiss!" A strange tone broke the silence again, and everyone's heartbeat was so fast that standing still was like fighting with someone, and the cold sweat on their foreheads was breaking out uncontrollably.

If there is a person standing brightly in front of them, then this group of people will step forward without fear, but the problem is that there is no one, and the unknown is the greatest fear.

Just when the atmosphere was tense, two dark light spots the size of plates suddenly appeared in the darkness ahead, like two large lanterns with a yellowish color.

Everyone stared at the two lanterns in cold sweat. After a while, the lantern went out for a moment and then turned back on in an instant.

This time, they finally discovered that these two lanterns... have eyelids.

"Monster! That's a monster!!" Some idiot yelled, and the crowd retreated in panic.

And the two lanterns seemed to be disturbed by the sound immediately, they shook violently, and moved closer to them.

The light of the torch illuminated the monster, and everyone was horrified to see a black boa constrictor slowly poking half of its body into the range reflected by the firelight.

It is not too much to say that it is a monster, because its body is as thick as three or four strong men put together, and the exposed body is about seven meters long, and the cold and hard scales on it are shining with the firelight.

At this time, the huge monster was tilting its head, spitting out a bright red snake letter thick as a human arm, and its lantern eyes were unblinkingly looking at the group of creatures that could die with a flick of its tail.

"Back back! Everyone back up and go back!" Su Tianyi yelled back, pushing those frightened people, if they still didn't move at this time, none of them would have to live!

Although Luo Xingyun has not been wandering in the rivers and lakes for a long time, he has heard of a snake king with black scales and a horn on his head that looks like a jade crown, so he is called the Black Water King.

The Black Water King is usually huge in stature and has a highly poisonous mouth, which just matches the one in front of him.

Li Wanshu has seen and heard a lot, and he also recognized the snake king: "It is the black water king. It has cold poison in its mouth. People who are poisoned can only live for half a month no matter how good their martial arts are. Be careful!"

Those who came to their senses ran away immediately, but they turned back after a few steps.

"What are you doing back here!" shouted the big insider next to the emperor.

"There are snakes over there! There is no way to get there!"

Luo Xingyun and the others stood there without moving, just staring at the big python in front of them warily, Mu Zhenghong also frowned, thinking that this time it was really doomed.

"Hiss!" The black water king suddenly made a hasty sound, then raised his head high, pulled his whole body back, stared at the crowd in front with his eyes illuminated by the fire, and assumed an attacking posture .

"Be careful!" Su Tian and the others yelled, anyone who knew some snakes knew that the Black Water King wanted to hit him hard.

Before he could finish speaking, the Black Water King paused, then opened his mouth like lightning and rushed towards the crowd, his swift force kicked up a cloud of dust.

This group of people jumped up one after another. After all, people with martial arts always reacted faster, and the snake's offensive did not achieve much effect.

Su Tianyi also took the opportunity to greet the big guy with a sword after the snake's head sprinted past, but the scratch was at most a shot, and it was not a serious injury.

No matter how strong the Black Water King is, he still feels pain. After being stung by this blow, his long snake tail swung back violently, towards Su Tian and the others.

Some people who couldn't escape were slapped to the wall by the snake's tail, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and their breath was weak.

"I can't do this! The scales on this guy's body are too hard! You can't kill him!" Su Tian yelled helplessly as he watched the people around him being kicked to the ground.

Luo Xingyun and Li Wanshu jumped up from the ground avoiding the swaying snake tail, only feeling that their personal strength is really small in front of this beast.One bite is not enough for it to swallow!

"Let's find someone to lure it away! Let's cripple this beast's eyes first!" Mu Zhenghong was holding a Qingming soft sword, with a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth, obviously injured.

Li Wanshu turned his head to wink at Luo Xingyun and Su League Leader, then he jumped up with one step, and took the lead towards the snake head.

The two of them were extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye they arrived in front of the smuggler who was oppressing some elder disciples.Mu Zhenghong saw the right moment and swung his sword towards the long snake letter on the snake's head: "Beast! Look this way!"

The Black Water King was frightened immediately, and the snake letter rolled up and shrank his head to avoid it, but the lantern eyes lit up, and he rushed towards this side with his bloody mouth open, and at the same time, the snake tail quickly rolled out come over.

There was no way for Li Wanshu and the others to retreat behind them, and the strong fishy smell from Shekou made people sick.

Su Tianyi and Luo Xingyun jumped out from the sides of the Black Water King almost immediately and jumped onto the snake. After a few steps, they jumped onto the snake's head and grabbed the scales on the snake's head to stabilize their figure.

Heishui Wang felt something on his head, and immediately swung that thick and long tail back to support him.However, Luo Xingyun and the other two stabbed into the eyes of the lantern that seemed to be on fire.

"Hiss! Hiss!" The eyes of the Black Water King were bloody, it became irritable from the pain, violently shook its body and swung its tail to sweep Luo Xingyun and the others away.

Just as Luo Xingyun drew his sword back, a big tail swept towards him. He was caught straight, and his body flew out backwards. A big bloody mouth appeared on the flying side.

It turned out that the Black Water King stretched out his head at some point.

Luo Xingyun was photographed so that his viscera were about to shift, but he was sober. Seeing that there was a bloody mouth behind him, he quickly stabbed the black water king's mouth with a backhand sword, and twisted the long sword lightly. enough force for him to jump up before the snake's mouth was completely closed.

It can be said that he passed by that big mouth, and he fell into someone's arms the next moment.

"Ayun?!" Li Wanshu hurriedly hugged him and led him away from some crazy black water kings.

The Black Water King was still in a frenzy, his tail swiped around and some stones on top of his head kept falling, and the others ran away in a panic.

"Young Master Li! There is an exit here!" Mu Zhenghong and several senior experts were standing not far away holding torches. There was a stone gate in front of them, but it had already been blasted open.

Li Wanshu and Luo Xingyun rushed towards the exit, there was still a panic behind them.After they ran out, they didn't stop. They ran for half an hour before resting for a while.

Although Luo Xingyun suffered some injuries, at least he was conscious and able to escape by himself, but he still couldn't bear to walk so far in one breath, and almost immediately sat down on the ground when he said he wanted to rest.

Li Wanshu saw that Luo Xingyun's face was pale and there was still a trace of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth, so he stretched out his finger to help others wipe it off naturally, and his voice was low and pleasant: "How do you feel?"

"Cough!" Luo Xingyun coughed dryly, and pushed Li Wanshu's hand away with an unnatural expression, "It's nothing serious, I'll just adjust my breath on my own."

After finishing speaking, he immediately closed his eyes and crossed his legs to adjust his breath.

Li Wanshu looked up, and sure enough, he saw Mu Zhenghong, who was resting at the side, looked at them with a rather strange look, but this guy was used to being shameless, and he really wanted the emperor to understand something, so that he could understand that he should not be on his own. There was a cross between him and Ayun.

It's a pity that Ah Yun has a very thin skin.

"Mr. Li." Seeing that no one was talking about it, Mu Zhenghong said, "Could it be that the white-clothed figure deliberately lured us into the bait? Although the road ahead is calm, I always feel that there is no danger along the way. It's all back."

Indeed, after being disturbed by the black water king, there are only a few people left who can follow them.

Li Wanshu also wondered if Bai Ying let them all die here on purpose, but could that guy kill so many people at once?Or is it that another group of people sneaked in here but they were not found?

For example, heresy.

"Let's hurry up and find the Martial Arts Order. I really don't want to stay in this damn place any longer." Li Wanshu patted the ashes on his body, stretched out his hand and pulled Luo Xingyun who had finished adjusting his breath, and he Looking up, down, left, and right at Luo Xingyun's still pale face, he said, "Ah Yun, do you want me to carry you?"

Luo Xingyun raised his head, puffed his chest and pursed his lips: "Sorry, I'm not so disabled that I can't walk."

"Alright then." Li Wanshu obediently withdrew his hand and stood aside, even though he thought Luo Xingyun was trying to hold on.

Mu Zhenghong kept everything in his eyes calmly, raised his eyebrows, and quietly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a meaningful smile.

Several people continued to walk forward, but this time it was really peaceful, and there were no forks along the way.But this road is full of rock walls and small stone houses, such a monotonous cave makes people feel that they have been walking the same road, if not for the marks made by the guards, Luo Xingyun almost thought it was a ghost hitting the wall.

Mu Zhenghong followed the two of them for a long time, but it was a pity that they just walked forward in unfathomable silence.

Just when Luo Xingyun and Li Wanshu were guessing what the emperor was planning, the man suddenly said, "I heard... Mr. Li is the son of the Grand Tutor?"

As expected, the topic came right to the point.

Luo Xingyun raised his eyebrows, and glanced at Li Wanshu, wanting to see how the fake scholar would respond.

Li Wanshu cupped his hands generously: "It was the negligence of the grassroots, who never confessed to the emperor at that time."

"No problem." Mu Zhenghong waved his hand, "The Minister of Dali Temple told me a few days ago that Li Taifu's wife died in an accident while going out. The Taifu was originally my enlightenment teacher. I think it is really true that he has lost his relatives at this age. I couldn't bear it, so I wanted to investigate this matter thoroughly."

"Your Majesty wants to find out how Aunt Xiyun passed away, right? I don't want to hide it from the Emperor... Speaking of which, the common people have a great responsibility for this matter. I think the Emperor already knows part of it." Li Wanshu cleared his throat, "Just It's just that we suddenly discovered that Aunt Xiyun, who has always been a powerless man, actually possesses martial arts, and thought he was trying to plot something against my Li family."

"What's more...why did she snatch other people's family treasures? The grass people chased after her to stop her. I didn't want her to kill me, so I was shocked and had to fight back."

"Then... what exactly is a family heirloom?" Mu Zhenghong asked.

If the eyes I sent were on that thing, there must be some very important clues, but it's a pity...

Mu Zhenghong turned his head and glanced at the two people on the other side.

There is a very suspicious Li Wanshu from the Li family who is very skilled in martial arts, and it is really unreasonable for him to force him.

"Actually, it's just a purple jade box. It looks very precious. As for what's inside...no one can know."

"Oh?"

"There is a very delicate mechanism in the box. If the box is forced, it will be destroyed together with the contents of the box. The key in the hand of the little girl holding the box has disappeared a few years ago."

"So that's how it is." Mu Zhenghong smiled inscrutablely, not knowing how much he believed it.

At this moment, Li Wanshu felt his sleeve being grabbed by someone, he was stunned for a moment, then turned around to see Luo Xingyun looking at him with light-colored eyes indifferently, he wondered: "What's wrong?

Luo Xingyun still didn't speak, but rolled his eyes lightly, aiming at the rear of his upper left corner, Li Wanshu followed his gaze, his pupils shrank.

I saw a white figure leaning out from the small stone house at the back of the upper part at some point, even though it was very dark there, I could still feel that figure was peeping at them.

Seeing the two of them froze, Mu Zhenghong turned his head almost immediately, and when he saw the white figure over there, he rushed over immediately: "Young Master Li, please stop him at the other side of the stone house!"

Li Wanshu responded and ran over, Luo Xingyun and a few senior experts were on standby.

The white figure seemed to be a little flustered, turned around to look in the small stone house, and saw Li Wanshu on the opposite side stepping on iron chains as fast as walking on the ground, and at this moment Mu Zhenghong's sword had blocked his retreat.

The man in white didn't have a weapon on him, so he could only dodge Mu Zhenghong's attack with a few steps, but with the addition of Li Wanshu, he was powerless to resist, so he had no choice but to jump out of the small stone house and rush to Luo Xingyun. Go with that guard.

Luo Xingyun's reaction was very quick, as if instinctively tapped his fingers on the hilt of the sword and pulled out the sword, after confirming that the white lump was human, he didn't have any creepy feeling.

But when he was about to rush up to strike that trickster with a sword, he felt his eyes blur for a moment, a bone-piercing chill rose from his feet to the top of his head, and at the same time the fishy smell poured out from his throat, he subconsciously closed his mouth .

"Shua!" The guard at the side made two moves smoothly with the man in white, but the latter cunningly escaped.

Luo Xingyun swallowed a mouthful of fishy sweetness, only to feel that chill suddenly disappear strangely.

He retracted the sword calmly, looked at the fleeing figure and began to think about what was going on with him.

Now it seems that there is something wrong with the use of internal force, like some kind of poisoning symptoms, thinking of this, he lifted up his sleeves and looked at his wrist.

There was indeed a cut on his wrist, which should have been left in the fight with the Black Water King just now.Luo Xingyun frowned, stretched out two fingers of his left hand and quickly tapped a few acupuncture points on his right hand, and sure enough, he saw a thin white line extending from the pulse point, winding upwards.
