"It's alright..."

Time was passing by bit by bit, and Lin Jinhuan's heartbeat calmed down because of the poisonous blood being sucked out.He slowly raised his hand to caress the back of Xue Yao's head, and lifted his head gently.

Seeing that the blood from the wound had turned red, Xue Yao let go of Lin Jinhuan and got off his body.

"Get up and put on your clothes. After a short rest, I'll set off. I'll go ahead and have a look." Xue Yao wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, got up and walked forward.

Maybe it was because his eyes got used to the darkness, or maybe the poisoning was relieved. Only then did Lin Jinhuan see clearly that the two of them were in a huge stone hall. Behind them was the goddamn stalactite cave. With some abandoned tables, chairs and furniture, it looks like an abandoned front hall.

Lin Jinhuan sat up and put on his clothes.He saw Xue Yao from afar looking in front of the stone gate and didn't come over so soon, so he sat cross-legged and started to adjust his breath.

True Qi circulated around his body for a week. Lin Jinhuan felt that his body was fine, but when he opened his eyes, he saw Xue Yao standing in front of the door thinking about something, so he got up and walked towards Xue Yao.

In front of Xue Yao stood nine stone gates, these nine gates were extremely tall, and the gates were carved with intricate relief decorations.There is a groove on the right side of each door, and the door can be opened by inserting the bamboo forest realm waist card into the groove.

Opening the doors is not the problem, the problem is what is behind each door.If Xiao Yu stared at him as soon as he opened the door, the situation would be a bit tricky.

Xue Yao looked at Shimen, uncontrollably wanting to think about what happened before, and the various images in his mind alternated back and forth, making it confusing.

For a while the headache got worse.

"what happened?"

Lin Jinhuan's voice suddenly sounded from behind. It turned out that he didn't know when he came over.At this time, Lin Jinhuan had already forced out the poisonous blood, and he adjusted his breath for a while, although the residual poison was not cleared, it was not a serious problem.

"Are you alright?" Xue Yao glanced at him distractedly, and saw that his face had returned to normal, and turned back to continue studying the nine gates.

"Well, thank you." Lin Jinhuan stepped forward, stood beside Xue Yao and looked up at the stone gate in front of him.

Xue Yao laughed and said, "It's really rare to be thanked by the sect master."

Lin Jinhuan glanced at Xue Yao with some disapproval, and said, "I have always had a clear distinction between grievances and grievances." As he spoke, he looked carefully at the Shimen again, pondered for a while and asked, "The patterns on each door are different? "

"Yes, different patterns on the door should represent different things behind the door. It may be dangerous to enter any door at random." Xue Yao walked forward, put his ear on the door and listened carefully to the inside of the door. movement.In fact, there are so many memory fragments in his mind at this moment that they are about to explode, and there seem to be countless people talking in various words that he can't understand.

"Can you remember?" Lin Jinhuan also stepped forward, raising his hand to touch the relief on the door.Seeing that the relief is exquisite except for its exquisite carving, there is nothing special about it.

"No, but I can guess." Xue Yao said he couldn't, but he couldn't help recalling these details in his heart, searching through thousands of pictures in his mind.

Xue Yao's face remained calm, making it impossible to see the clue.But at the moment his head hurts so much that he can hardly think.

Lin Jinhuan saw that something was wrong with Xue Yao, and he thought he couldn't let Xue Yao go on like this.So he casually pointed to a door and said, "I think you should enter this door. You can see that this door is engraved with flames. It looks like a kitchen. According to me, it must be safe."

"Nonsense, hiss..."

Xue Yao laughed angrily at Lin Jinhuan's nonsense, and opened his mouth to refute, but suddenly his eyes blurred, and his eyes suddenly became blank.Countless fragmented pictures flashed through his mind quickly, and he couldn't make sense of it without cause and effect.There are more and more complicated memory fragments, and they are turning faster and faster in his mind like a marquee.

Xue Yao knelt down on the ground overwhelmed, his head ached sharply as if being pierced by a sharp sword.

He couldn't help himself to calm his restless mind.

Xue Yao let out an unbearable sob.

Suddenly a pair of icy hands covered his eyes, and Xue Yao's eyes darkened instantly, like a big hand forcibly breaking through his enchanted altar.

The strong smell of blood was mixed with Lin Jinhuan's usual scent of aloes, and it instantly enveloped him from behind.

Lin Jinhuan squatted down and pressed Xue Yao from behind, and he raised his hand to cover Xue Yao's eyes.Xue Yao felt Lin Jinhuan's chest against his back, and he could hear Lin Jinhuan's heartbeat clearly amidst these complicated thoughts.

"If you can't remember it, don't think about it." Lin Jinhuan's voice sounded in Xue Yao's ear, with his usual defiant look.He said arrogantly: "It doesn't matter what is behind his door, just call it."

Surprisingly reassuring.

Xue Yao was silent for a long time without speaking, the chaotic images in his mind began to dissipate slowly, and the indistinguishable human voices in his ears were gradually receding like a tide.

"All bragging." Xue Yao pulled down Lin Jinhuan's hand covering his eyes, and said nonchalantly, "Just now I don't know who just came in and almost confessed here."

Seeing that he was free to play tricks, Lin Jinhuan stood up and said with a smile: "Then I would like to ask Xue Zuo envoy not to spread the word in the future, and save some face for me."

In the end, the two really chose a door at random to open as Lin Jinhuan suggested.

"I'm going to open it?" Xue Yao put the badge on the door and asked Lin Jinhuan back.

"Let's go." Lin Jinhuan stood in front of the door leisurely, with his hands behind his back and his head slightly raised, as if he didn't care about the situation inside the door at all.If his clothes were full of blood at this time, it might be more convincing.

Xue Yao turned the waist plate lightly, and the Shimen began to vibrate, and fine dust fell down one after another.Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of "tap, tap, tap" from inside the stone gate, and the heavy stone gate slowly opened with Xue Yao's movements.A gust of wind blew out from the crack in the door, stirring the corner of Lin Jinhuan's clothes.

It was pitch black inside the door, and nothing came out of it except the wind.It's just that the wind blowing from the door is a little cold, and it also has a disgusting smell.

It only took a moment for the stone door to open to a size that could allow a person to pass through. Lin Jinhuan walked in the door first. He was not too bothered by the tricks of the bamboo forest environment, and now he just wanted to rush in and arrest Wei Ziyao. come out.He was too lazy to throw stones to ask for directions, the worst would be to meet gods and kill gods and ghosts and ghosts.

There was a dead silence inside the door, gloomy and empty without a single sound.Unlike the usual quietness, there is no breath of life here.Lin Jinhuan raised his eyes and looked around. The surrounding scene was somewhat beyond his expectation. Although Lin Jinhuan was well-informed, the scene in front of him still caused him discomfort.

Inside the door is a huge space, all four sides are made of stone.I don't know what is the mystery of this stone, but it is exuding cold air continuously, and there are even frost flowers hanging on the surface of the stone wall.

There were things hanging neatly on the roof. Lin Jinhuan took a closer look and found that there were people hanging on them, men, women, old and young, tall, short, fat, and thin, arranged in different categories, so densely packed that they couldn't be counted.

These people's faces were blue and white, their eyes were closed tightly, their limbs were naturally drooping, and they seemed to have lost their breath.

Xue Yao came in from behind, and he also looked around, and said in a normal way: "It turns out to be the ghost warehouse."

Xue Yao is no stranger to this place, the corpse ghost warehouse. Almost every ghost sect that can afford it will build at least one.As the name suggests, the ghoul library is the place where ghost cultivators store ghouls. After ordinary corpses are refined into ghouls, they will be sealed here when they are not allowed to be summoned.

The scale of the warehouse where the ghouls are stored in the bamboo forest is much larger than the one in front of you.

"It seems that the owner of the door is lucky. Generally, the ghouls do not arrange organs in the treasury, because the fear of accidentally injuring the ghouls is not worth the loss. If we pass carefully, there will be no problem." Xue Yao said as he walked forward: "Furthermore, the ghouls To people other than the ghost master, it is just a corpse that has been dead for a long time, not a valuable treasure, and almost no one has the idea of ​​attacking the ghost library."

Lin Jinhuan suddenly remembered a past event more than ten years ago. At that time, he was almost obsessed with self-blame because two hundred people in the village were killed by Zhai Xidong and turned into ghouls. Looking back now, he felt a little naive.

Now the blood on his hands is no less than that of Zhai Xidong, I don't know how A Yao would feel if he was still alive.

The two walked through countless ghouls, and these ghouls were really as clueless to the outside world as Xue Yao said.

Lin Jinhuan asked Xue Yao as he walked, "You are also a ghost cultivator, why have you never summoned a ghoul?"

Xue Yao said: "I practiced ghouls before, but I couldn't summon them for some reason, and I didn't have much chance to use them later, so I didn't bother to practice again."

"No wonder I can only be a leftist envoy for so many years. I really don't want to make progress." Lin Jinhuan criticized seriously.

During their conversation, they didn't notice that there was a female corpse behind them who turned slowly and opened their eyes in their direction.

***

Sijiu is a low-level ghost cultivator in the bamboo forest. His cultivation has not improved much for many years.His master is one of the 24 venerables in the bamboo forest environment, and his status is very respected.It's just that the master lost patience with him and sent him to guard the ghoul library early.

Together with him, there are seven other brothers who guard the ghost library. They are sent here for various reasons.Although everyone didn't say it on the surface, they all knew in their hearts that being transferred to the ghoul warehouse meant that they were in the bamboo forest.

Although there is no future for guarding the ghoul warehouse, but fortunately, the task is free and stable. You only need to count the ghouls entering and leaving the warehouse every day, and you don't have to go out to fight and kill for nothing.After so many years, Sijiu can be regarded as an open mind. In addition, he has the oldest qualifications here, so he is more or less a small boss.

Seeing that it was almost time to change the guard, Sijiu was a little absent-minded. In the past, when the brothers saw some outstanding ghouls, they could take advantage of their positions to play with them, but after being banned by Xiao Yu's orders, they did not If people dare to commit crimes again, daily work becomes boring and tedious.

At this moment, he saw the door of the warehouse suddenly opened, and a ghoul came out alone.This ghoul was tall and handsome, but his eyes were a little dull. Although his complexion was not rosy, it could be seen that he hadn't been dead for too long.I don't know which master's treasure was used up and forgot to collect it.

"Hey, you guys, didn't you see that the ghoul came out by itself? Hurry up and put it away." Sijiu pointed to his subordinates proudly, "It's really a sightless thing."

A few ghost cultivators dared not speak out, they staggered towards the ghoul, cursing and swearing.

It's just that before the ghost cultivators reached the door, a black shadow flashed in front of them. Before they could see what happened, their necks were broken and they were thrown on the ground.

Sijiu hadn't seen this kind of scene for a long time, he was terrified and turned around to run, while running, he didn't forget to take out the sound transmission talisman to report.It's a pity that before he took two steps, a black figure landed in front of his eyes, removed his shoulders at an extremely fast speed, grabbed his neck and dragged him off the ground.

Only then did Sijiu see clearly that there was a man in front of him, his eyes were darker than the most terrifying deep pool in the bamboo forest, and his body was covered in blood, like a ghost rakshasa.

"Where are the people you brought back yesterday detained?" Lin Jinhuan asked.

Sijiu's throat made a "ho ho" sound, and the man's fingers pinched his throat, making him unable to breathe.The man's gaze was like a piece of ice that would not melt for a thousand years. Under his gaze, Sijiu felt a chill rushing from his back to the sky.

"In...in the water prison." Sijiu said with difficulty.

"Take us there." Lin Jinhuan threw the [-] on the ground: "No tricks are allowed."

Since both arms were removed, Sijiu had some difficulty getting up. At this moment, he saw the beautiful "baby" walking from the door, and the lifelessness in his eyes had long since disappeared.A pair of pitch-black phoenix eyes looked at him, cold and sharp.

Sijiu quickly stood up, walked ahead and took the two of them to the water prison.

After coming out of the ghoul library, the scenery in front of me is very different from before. The lights are bright and well decorated along the way, and it seems that I have reached the inside of the sub-altar.Sijiu led Lin Jinhuan and Xue Yao towards the water prison, and encountered several patrol teams on the way.Sijiu saw that the two of them were silently cleaning up the team with their knives in their hands, and they were so frightened that they buried their heads in leading the way honestly and did not dare to make mistakes.
