After a brief jump of joy, everyone quickly recalled that they looked a little more vigilantly at the people around them.

The underground palace was opened, but it was a small opening that only allowed one person to pass through.The question is obvious, who gets in?Who advanced?No one wants to give up the opportunity at their fingertips to others.The teammates who had broken through the formation side by side just now, looked at each other with hostility in an instant.

And the eyes of most of them fell on Ji Xingmian at the same time. His identity was unknown and he did not participate in the previous break-up. Everyone was in the same hatred, so it was normal to want to isolate him.

The situation was suddenly delicate, and the attitude of the young man who stopped Ji Xingmian before was no longer friendly, "My lord, please don't go any further."

"Elder brother, why are you being so polite to him?" Another young man who was following him spoke out with contempt on his face, "This man came at such a precise time, it seems that he is here to pick up the leak."

They seemed to belong to the same sect, and there were several other disciples behind them, echoed loudly, and surrounded Ji Xingmian and the two into a semicircle, "Second senior brother is right, senior senior brother, don't be so polite to him."

"Stop being rude." An old voice came from behind, and the crowd paused, retreating to both sides, giving way to a white-haired old man, "Master, you come from a noble family, how could you care about such a thing. Wait a minute If you make wild speculations about it, don’t hesitate to apologize to others.”

On the surface, this old Taoist was reprimanding his disciples, but in his words he was insinuating that Ji Xingmian was hungry.Even though Xi Hedang wanted to taunt back, Ji Xingmian held him down.

He glanced lightly at everyone, then stopped at the entrance of the cave for a while, made a gesture of letting go, and led Xi He back to the side.

As soon as his so-called "strong enemy" retreated, many people breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at each other with deeper eyes.After about half an hour, everyone finally decided on the order of entering the cave.

The old Taoist who stopped Ji Xingmian earlier seemed to be quite prestigious, leading his disciples to the front, followed by a few casual practitioners with high enough cultivation, and then those little fish and shrimp.

The sect of Liu Rong and others seemed to have some friendship with that veteran sect, and the position in the queue was relatively high. He originally wanted to invite Ji Xingmian to go with him, but Xi He unceremoniously pushed him back.

After almost all the people outside the underground palace left, Ji Xingmian brought Xi He in.

When the tunnel was first entered, it was very narrow, and the ground was still seeping with water, making it very muddy.After walking for a short distance, it gradually opened up, the sand turned into jade bricks, and there were more murals on the stone walls, but probably because of the passage of time, the patterns on the murals became blurred, and everyone just sighed For a moment, don't stay.

After walking through a long tunnel, they came to a wide stone hall. There were several stone statues standing in the hall. The faces of the stone statues were as vague as the murals, and only the one in the middle could be vaguely recognized as a woman.She should be smiling, lowering her head slightly, overlooking the crowd in the hall.

The crowd obviously had little interest in the stone statues. They found some strangely shaped writing on a wall, and they were gathering together to study it with their heads down.

"This seems to be an ancient Chinese, and no one uses it now." The old man with white hair stood at the front and pointed out several words one after another, "These words seem to mean tomb. Someone's tomb."

When everyone heard this, they immediately became excited. While complimenting the old Taoist, they did not forget to ask, "Is it really a mausoleum? Do you have a Taoist name? Which sect is it from?"

The old Taoist was quite flustered, he was stroking his beard and was about to continue, when he suddenly heard an untimely sneer.He followed the voice and saw that it was the young attendant following Ji Xingmian, Dang even felt a little displeased, "This little friend is laughing for no reason, but what's your opinion?"

"I'm laughing at you for unnecessary actions." Xi He said unceremoniously: "Just looking at the decoration of this place, as long as you are not blind, you will know that it is a mausoleum. What do you need to say?"

The old man couldn't hold back his face, he stroked his beard and said with a sneer, "Young Master Ji is well-informed, so he must have some good ideas?"

Ji Xingmian was studying the stone statues. Hearing this, he glanced at them lightly, and met Liu Rong's embarrassed smile. He understood that this old man had a good relationship with Liu Rong, and he presumably got his information from the other party.

"It's not a good idea." Ji Xingmian took a few steps towards the stone wall with the stove in his hand, and quickly scanned it back and forth, "This is indeed a good ancient Chinese."

The old Taoist's face softened slightly, and he was about to speak again, when Ji Xingmian said again: "But the ancient text is not from the north, but from Xiyue."

Everyone's expression changed, and a few people couldn't sit still for a while, and subconsciously retorted, "What, Xiyue Kingdom, my son, you must have misread it. This is the northernmost border of the North, and Xiyue Kingdom is far away from here. Thousands of miles away, how could their tombs appear here?"

"I'm just telling what I saw, and you can decide for yourself." After saying this, Ji Xingmian ignored them and went back to the stone statue.

There was a commotion in the crowd visible to the naked eye. After more than ten years of changes, Beiwang's impression of Xiyue Kingdom has become that it is rich in demon cultivators, and the demon cultivators defined by the public are moody and unpredictable, and inheritance is certainly valuable. But you have to have your life to get it.

Ji Xingmian's words made many people think of quitting, but some people thought that he was deliberately scaremongering and wanted to take the opportunity to reduce his competitors.

The crowd quickly divided into several waves. Some chose to go back the same way, some decided to continue inward, and some planned to wait and see for a while and make a decision based on the situation.

Time passed bit by bit, and there were fewer and fewer people in the hall, and finally only the two of them remained.After all, there were only a small number of people who chose to go out, and most of them chose to continue going in. Before Liu Rong went in, he wanted to come and pull them together, but Xi He stared away before he got close.

Wang Shu changed his attire and went in with the crowd.

Xi He watched the crowd disappear into the corridor, with a worried expression on his face, "My lord, won't something happen if we let them in like this?"

Ji Xingmian said: "Wangshu will follow them and nothing will happen."

"Eh...then..." Xi He's expression was tangled, he hesitated to speak, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

Ji Xingmian looked back at him from the stone statue, "Are you worried about those people, or Wang Shu?"

"Of course it's those people." Xi He insisted. "Wang Shu watches so many of them all by himself, what if he misses any of them and ruins your mission?"

Ji Xingmian said, "It's okay if it's broken."

Xi He was puzzled, but Ji Xingmian didn't explain and continued to study the stone statue.He didn't come here to complete any mission.

The reason why Ji Xingmian only stared at the stone statue was because he sensed the magic breath that he sensed on Liu Rong earlier on the stone statue.And in his last life, this underground palace was also shaken out, but it was a few months later than the current time.

The underground palace in the previous life was not noticed by any big forces at the beginning, and only small fish and shrimps were attracted.It wasn't known until a disciple of the Damen Sect was accidentally folded in.

In his previous life, Ji Xingmian was ordered to solve this matter. When he arrived here, the underground palace was almost destroyed, and naturally there was no chance to see the stone statues and writings.The monster also became delirious due to swallowing too many sundries, which took him a lot of effort.

In the end, he fell into a secret passage and accidentally picked up an egg. After leaving the underground palace, he handed the egg to the national teacher, and soon he had an extra junior...

Ji Xingmian glanced up and down behind the stone statue. In his impression, it seemed that when he was fighting with that monster in this hall, the other party accidentally bumped into some mechanism, which made him fall into the secret passage.

His eyes stopped in one place, and he said to Xi He next to him, "Lend me your sword."

"Huh?" Xi He subconsciously handed over the sword, just as he was about to ask him why he didn't use his own, when the other party pulled out the sword and slashed it on a jade brick under the stone statue.

The jade brick flickered twice and moved away, revealing a very small opening. There was no sound during the whole process. If it hadn't been for seeing a hole in the ground, Xi He would never have thought that there would be a hidden place in this place. With the agency.

Right now, the two are on the back of the stone statue, even if someone comes in from the outside, they will generally not notice them here.Xi He looked around and subconsciously lowered his voice, "Master?"

"You guard outside." Ji Xingmian returned the sword to him, "I'm going down."

"Then how can I do that?" Xi He became anxious after hearing this, "What if something happens to you down there, I'll go down with you."

"You stay here." Ji Xingmian looked at him and said, "If we all go down and someone blocks the entrance of the cave, how can we get out?"

When Xi He was questioned, he couldn't find a rebuttal for a moment, his expression wrinkled like a bitter melon.

Of course, this excuse was used by Ji Xingmian to block Xihe, even if the entrance here was blocked, Ji Xingmian still had a way to find another exit.The danger down there is unknown, it's safer to let Xi He stay up there.

After he finished explaining, he was about to go down when Xi He suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Otherwise, tell me what you're looking for, and I'll go down and look for it."

"If you can't recognize it, I have to go down by myself." Ji Xingmian couldn't help but laugh, "Okay." He slowed down his tone, "You wait outside for a while, I will come out soon."

Ji Xingmian handed over the cloak and hand stove to Xi He for safekeeping, took a luminous pearl for lighting, and went down the secret passage alone.

The secret passage was dark and damp, and the stone walls on both sides were filled with a bone-chilling chill. There seemed to be some kind of magic circle set up here. The light of the Ye Mingzhu could only reach three feet around him before being swallowed up by the endless darkness. Even the sound of footsteps was overshadowed. weakened together.

The darkness makes the passage of time incalculable, and it is easy for people to have an illusion, as if the world is so big, but he is the only one left.

Ji Xingmian was reminded of some bad memories by this scene, his breathing was a little short, and his palms were subconsciously clenched.

A sharp pain spread from the palm, forcibly dragging back the sanity.Ji Xingmian suddenly stopped in place and closed his eyes.When he opened it again, his eyes had regained clarity, and he stepped forward again, but his left hand was still clenched tightly, and he did not relax at all.

Ji Xingmian counted the time in his heart, and after another quarter of an hour, there was movement behind him.

"Young Master, Young Master, wait for me."

The voice changed from far to near, and after a while, Xi He ran over, grabbed his arm to stand firm, and said out of breath, "My lord, it's not good, outside... there's a fight outside, they All crazy."

Ji Xingmian saw him holding her hand, "Why?"

"Someone opened the Treasure Pavilion, and everyone wanted it, so there was a fight." Xi He was terrified, and pulled him to try to run outside, "Go, if you don't, everyone will die."

Ji Xingmian didn't move, just looked at him calmly, "Isn't it beneficial for you when they fight?"

Xi He's complexion changed, he tightened his fingers while holding his hand, and said with a forced smile, "My lord, what are you talking about?"

Ji Xingmian didn't speak, and held the other's wrist with his backhand through the fabric.The next moment, his palm was filled with blood, and a bloody arrow pierced out of his palm, piercing "Xi He"'s wrist bone.

The other party screamed, but what came out of his throat was a woman's soft voice.She looked venomously and tried to escape, but was suppressed by Ji Xingmian's coercion and couldn't move.

"I don't like people touching me." Ji Xingmian lowered her eyes, and her eyes fell on her palm pierced by blood arrows.

It seemed that some switch was pressed, and the palm seemed to be detonated, exploding into a cloud of blood mist.Ji Xingmian completely ignored her screams, and said calmly, "Next time, remember to pretend."

As his words fell, the blood mist condensed into several blood droplets, passing through the woman's body quickly, almost piercing her body into a sieve.

Since the throat was also pierced, the woman could only make a gasp of "ho ho". She fixed her eyes on Ji Xingmian, and her lips moved, as if calling out a name.

Ji Xingmian was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously let go of his hands.The woman took the opportunity to escape the suppression and disappeared in front of him in the blink of an eye.

It took a long time for Ji Xingmian to move again. He lowered his head and wrapped the bandage around his left hand. His movements were slow and absent-minded, as if he was still digesting the impact of the name just now.

Suddenly, there was another faint sound of wind in the air, and Ji Xingmian subconsciously thought it was the woman who had gone and returned, and changed directions with a turn of his feet.The right hand pinched the formula, and was about to shoot, but stopped after seeing the person coming.

It was a slender little black dragon, whose body was only as thick as his fingers, with two small paws clawing at the edge of the wall and poking out its head from behind. Its magnificent blood pupils were like glass, and it was looking at him without blinking.
