A lamp talisman firefly lit up, and the faint halo was like a golden fence, covering Murong Xue's face.Murong Xue let go of the lamp talisman, and the talisman was like a cluster of will-o'-the-wisps, slowly drifting towards the passage below the cave, illuminating a dark small room.

"It's safe below." He turned his head and said to Yu Shishi and Yu Linxian.

The three of them turned down the hole one after another and landed on the gravel on the ground.Murong Xue and Yu Shishi rolled down from the temple above together, crawled for a long time in the cobweb-like corridor, and met Yu Linxian who fell unconscious.Fortunately, the old man only had a broken head, nothing serious, but the glass mirror was broken, no matter how he cast a spell, it wouldn't light up.

Going around and going around until now, I haven't met any other disciples.The underground hole system must be very large, and everyone falls in different positions.The top priority should be to find the way back, seek help from the brothers who stayed behind above, and try to find a way to get everyone together.Otherwise, some people may break their hands and feet, but they cannot be treated.But Yu Linxian insisted on going deep. According to him, the way up must have been blocked, and he had to find a way out from below.Among the three of them, he was the elder, and Delong held the highest esteem, Yu Shishi was the only one who looked up to her master, Murong Xue could not say a word, and silently followed behind Yu Shishi.

The small room is not big, with a square golden coffin in the middle, and six coffins around it are arranged in a circle around the center.The six coffins are all wooden coffins, and the lacquer on them has peeled off cleanly, exposing the decayed wooden body.The golden coffin was very intact, and there were intricate and exquisite reliefs on all sides of the coffin.Murong Xue stuck the lamp talisman on the wall, Yu Shishi touched it a few times with a full face of surprise, tired of climbing, he sat down on the golden coffin to rest.

"This must be the tomb of a Fuxi god and witch." Yu Linxian exclaimed, "Ancient books record that there are ten witches in Lingshan, who go up and down from Lingshan to reach God. Lingshan is the highest peak in the Jiuyi Mountains. They regard Lingshan as a A ladder to the sky. After they died, they buried themselves in the mountains in the hope that they would be with God Fuxi forever. These corridors are the roads left by the tombs they built, and Lingshan is the cemetery of the gods and witches Fuxi."

Murong Xue frowned, and said in a low voice: "If it's a tomb, this place should be sealed. Besides, this tunnel can't accommodate a person to pass through upright. How can they transport the earth and sand to build the tomb out of the mountain? These tunnels... the younger generation I think it should be used elsewhere.”

"What you say, a prostitute, makes some sense, so tell me, what's the use for it?" Master Yu said.

Murong Xue shook her head, "I haven't thought of it yet."

Seeing Master Yu sitting on the golden coffin, Yu Linxian was rather displeased, and said, "You child, come down quickly. This is the resting place of ancient gods and witches, how can you be so rude?"

"Dead for thousands of years, he would have turned to ashes long ago. Even if I pried away his gold, he wouldn't know it." Yu Shishi stuck out his tongue, got down from the top as he said, and squatted down to look at the reliefs on the coffin.

There are a total of four pictures in front, back, left, and right, which seems to be a big battle.The sun-like man on the cloud should be Fuxi, the great god looks at the clouds, looking down at the blood flowing into the river in the vast wilderness.A white deer with blossoming antlers is drawn in the clouds hovering in the middle, riding the wind upwards.Countless vajra-eyed monsters hovered beside it, roaring towards the sky.

"This should be the evil god of Nanjiang, the White Deer." Yu Linxian stroked his beard and explained, "It is said that it does a lot of evil and eats the hearts and livers of children. Every time the moon is full, Nanjiang will sacrifice virgins and virgins on its altar Yes. Otherwise, it will come down to make troubles and disturb the mountains and rivers. In a fit of anger, God Fuxi led the gods to attack the white deer and save the people in southern Xinjiang from the fire and water."

Yu Shishi pointed to a man in armor on the battlefield, "This man is so tall and burly, he must be the owner of the tomb. This senior witch is really amazing. He actually followed the great god Fuxi to crusade against the southern border. There are all demons Well, if God Fuxi brought them all in one litter back then, it would save us from going down the mountain every day to eliminate demons and subdue demons, and be so busy that we never touch the ground."

"Demons are also living beings. We just have different camps and standpoints. But in the eyes of gods, no matter whether it is a human or a demon, everyone is the same." Murong Xue said softly.

"You have a bodhisattva heart." Master Yu gave him a sideways look.

Murong Xue smiled shyly, "Senior Sister is overrated."

"..." Master Yu rolled his eyes, "You idiot, I'm mocking you."

"Oh..." Murong Xue was stunned for a moment, and lowered her eyelashes desolately.

Seeing him like this, Yu Shishi felt a little sorry.This guy is white and clean, and he is always gentle, making people want to bully him.Suddenly remembering that bastard peeping at her taking a bath, he felt confident.It's not too much for a prostitute, even if he skinned him.

Turning to the other side, the scene above the relief suddenly changed.The big witch is drawing a talisman to set fire, and the flames almost engulf the entire picture, and many unknown flowers are reduced to ashes in the flames.In the third relief, the great witch is bound by chains and tied to the altar.A group of witches surrounded him and poured a kind of juice into his mouth.Some people cut open his flesh and stuffed something inside.Murong Xue identified it carefully, it seemed to be a mandala.

"This is a divine flower." Yu Linxian said, "The name is untestable. It seems to have something to do with 'wind'. Legend has it that only the gods have this kind of flower. The ancient great witch stabbed it on his chest as a symbol of status. According to the relief From the looks of it, it was the senior witch who set fire to the divine flower and was sentenced to death."

"What is he doing all the time to burn flowers?" Yu Shishi asked.

No one knows the answer. "Shen Hua..." Yu Linxian revealed a longing look, "I don't know if I can make a golden pill out of this flower and live forever."

Just as he was talking, the light symbol on the wall suddenly flickered three times and then turned gray.Master Yu was startled, and said, "How did you draw this spell?"

"No," Murong Xue said hastily, "I added a few strokes to my lamp talisman, which can sense the breath of inhuman creatures. If the opponent's number is less than three, it will flash once. If the opponent's number is four, it will flash twice." Down."

"Just flashed three times," Yu Shishi drew his sword out of its sheath, "There are only five, not many, let's destroy them one by one."

"No," Murong Xue said with a bitter face, "This charm can only be flashed three times at most, and it's grayed out means...there are too many opponents, it can't flash it."

While talking, they heard a cold and sticky sound, as if something hard was rubbing against the ground.This kind of thing does not know the origin and the number, so it is not suitable to fight recklessly.Everyone unanimously went to lift the golden coffin. The golden coffin was very big and strong, and it would be good to hide three people.However, the three of them tried their best, and the coffin did not move at all.Helpless, they had to disperse and hide in the wooden coffin.It seems that only two wooden coffins are intact.Yu Linxian originally wanted to hide with the little disciple, but who would have thought that Murong Xue would jump in right after Yu Shishi.He had no choice but to lie down in a coffin and cover the wooden boards.

As soon as Murong Xue lay down, she heard something crawling out of the hole in the small room.The gravel was crushed to make a thin sound, which made one's scalp tingle in the silent darkness.He and Yu Shishi both hugged the arm of the corpse in the coffin tightly, facing the unknown living creature outside, this dead creature was nothing to be afraid of.

A deep shadow covered the coffin board, Murong Xue felt that the coffin was a little darker.He heard a cold "hissing" sound, like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter. "Hissing" sounded one after another, filling the entire tomb in a short while, it sounded like the outside was covered with poisonous snakes.The coffins creaked and something climbed onto their coffins.Murong Xue's heart rose to her throat, and she tried her best to hold her breath, so as not to be detected by these evil things.

They are sniffing around, separated by thin wooden boards, which are their cold scales.The scales scratched across the rotten coffin board, making a tooth-piercing click.Under their pressure, the rotten wooden coffin seemed to collapse in the next moment.He felt the body beside him trembling, and his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that this mummy is a fraud?It took a while to realize that it was Yu Shishi who was holding the corpse's arm tightly, trembling uncontrollably.

In the darkness, Murong Xue blinked, gently tugged La Yu Shishi's sleeve, put her fingers into her palm, and wrote stroke by stroke: "Don't be afraid."

Yu Shishi grabbed his hand with his backhand and strangled him tightly.Murong Xue was terrified by the pain, she clenched her teeth and didn't cry out.

The coffin was extremely dark, and those unknown monsters hadn't left yet, wandering around in the small room.Murong Xue tilted her head, trying to look outside through the gap, but it was pitch black and she couldn't see anything.He opened his eyes for a while, gradually getting used to the darkness, looked into the gap again, was startled suddenly, and immediately froze as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Yu Shishi felt that he became stiff, and wrote on his palm: "What's wrong?"

He didn't answer.Just now, he vaguely saw an eye outside the crack of the plank, which seemed to turn a few times.He suddenly understood that there was an evil creature lying on the coffin board and peeking inside, motionless.Murong Xue didn't know if this thing had noticed them, she held Yu Shishi's hand tightly, but Yu Shishi sensed something and didn't dare to move, the two of them maintained the posture of holding hands, like two sculptures.

Gradually, the "hissing" sound faded away, and the small room fell silent again.The coffin board creaked, followed by the crackling sound of scales rubbing against stones, and the thing lying on the coffin seemed to leave.But Yu Shishi and Murong Xue still didn't dare to move, and they didn't hear Yu Linxian's voice. The two of them were silent for a while, and then they called out quietly: "Master..."

No one answered, and there was no strange sound.

Master Yu called out again: "Master?"

The two lifted the coffin and touched his master's coffin, only to find that Yu Linxian's coffin was empty, only the original mummy inside.Murong Xue lit the lamp talisman, and the talisman light illuminated Yu Shishi's anxious face.

"Was my master captured by a monster?"

"..." Murong Xue whispered, "I'm afraid not."

He pointed to the coffin they were lying in just now, and a yellow paper charm was pasted on the edge of the unobtrusive coffin lid. Master Yu picked it up and saw that it was dripping with human blood.

"Those evil things have been around our coffin, probably because of this bloody talisman. Your master took advantage of them being attracted by us, and escaped quietly by himself. Fortunately, they seem to have scruples and dare not destroy them. coffin." Murong Xue said dejectedly, "Senior Sister Yu, while it's just the two of us, I have something to say to you. Your master is not a good person. I didn't peep at you taking a bath, he peeked at you. Master, who dares to approach your tent? I warned him several times before he restrained himself."

Master Yu was beyond shocked, "Don't talk nonsense, he is my master!"

Murong Xue glanced at her, as if feeling wronged, she lowered her head and said nothing.

The blood talisman was clutched in his hand, his nails pierced his palm so painfully, Master Yu couldn't believe that the master who raised him was such a person.

"I'll ask my master about this matter." Master Yu put the blood talisman into Qiankun's bag, "If it wasn't you who peeked at me taking a bath, then why did you draw my little portrait?"

"I..." Murong Xue's cheeks turned red immediately.

Unable to see his face clearly in the dark, Yu Shishi snorted coldly, turned his head and walked outside, and climbed up to the entrance of the cave first.It was pitch black outside, so I didn't dare to use too many lamp symbols, I only dared to light up one, faintly illuminating the square inch of the field.There was no strange sound, and those evil things were indeed gone.

Yu Shishi squatted at the entrance of the cave, looking left and right to beware of evil things, and asked in a low voice: "You said, those ghosts know that there are us in the coffin, why don't they lift the coffin?"

"I don't know..." Before Murong Xue finished speaking, there was a creaking sound from behind, the golden coffin board moved a crack, and a blue-black corpse hand with unusually long nails stretched out from it.Murong Xue's scalp exploded, and she hurriedly climbed up.

Those evil things dare not touch randomly, it turns out that there are more powerful things here.I don't know how fierce this great witch who has never died for a thousand years is.Murong Xue stretched out the hole with both hands, and looked down, the shadow of the witch corpse had already been cast on the ground below.Yu Shishi also trembled, took out a handful of charms and pasted them at the entrance of the cave, and the two hurriedly fled.

In the panic, he didn't know where to escape, and he only chose the path without traces of evil things.Murong Xue accidentally pushed a stone slab, two people got in and moved the stone slab back to its original position.I really didn't have the strength to climb, and I was panting against the stone wall.Light up the lamp talisman at the first time to check if there are any evil things here.The light symbol did not flicker, and the two breathed a sigh of relief.

In the silent cave, there were only the two of them.Yu Shishi glanced sideways at Murong Xue's fair face, this guy secretly painted her portrait, needless to say, he knew what kind of thoughts he had in mind.She felt that it was necessary to remind her, so she said, "I tell you, don't like me, I won't like you, I am very pursuing."

"I know." Murong Xue was very calm.

He has been like this since he was a child, when he was thrown in the crowd, he was ruined, mediocre, like the same pattern of carved flowers on the window lattice, although exquisite, but not brilliant.How could such a proud lady like Yu Shishi fall in love with him?Ever since Master Yu kicked a senior brother from the same school away in Wufang Luotian's discussion, he has liked her, but he also knows that this love has no result.So it was fine for him to be silent, and it was fine to watch from a distance, with a little joy in his heart, warming himself.

Murong Xue said: "I know, Senior Sister is dedicated to the Tao, so she definitely won't care about the affection of these children."

"Oh, that's not true," Yu Shishi said calmly, "Let me tell you the truth, those who came here today are pretty good-looking, and there is a man named Qi...not the white-haired man, It's the one with the white face, which suits my eyes well. If he's also interested in me, then I'll go back to being vulgar. If he doesn't have eyes and can't find my beauty, that Yun Zhi can make do with it."

Murong Xue: "..."

"And I was sent by a famous family, and I have a higher status than them. When you get married in the future, you must listen to me." After Yu Shishi finished speaking, he made a vicious expression at him, "If you dare to say that Tell others, and I'll tear you apart."

Murong Xue nodded like a chicken pecking rice, not daring to disobey.

Lantern symbols floated all over the hole, and only one corner was still not clearly illuminated.Yu Shishi and Murong Xue looked at each other, drew out their swords and moved over step by step.It was dark there, and there was an indescribable horror.Both of them's sword skills are actually half-baked, Yu Shishi came here because of her master's support, and Murong Xue came here because of Yu Shishi.Unconsciously sweating profusely, the pale faces of the two were reflected in the light of the sword.

"Is your monster detection talisman reliable?" Yu Shishi muttered softly.

"I..." Murong Xue stumbled, "I can't guarantee..."

Die and die!Master Yu plucked up his courage, gave a loud shout, and drew his sword first.A frost-cold sword energy suddenly enveloped her sword move, clear light drifted down, the black shadows in the corner dispersed, and Yun Zhi and Qi Lingshu appeared.One of them was meditating upright, and the other was leaning on the stone wall carelessly, raising his eyebrows and smiling at her.

"Oh, I'm so sad," Yun Zhi covered half of his face and sighed, "I have such a face, but I can only be accepted by my junior sister. In the next life, I will reincarnate with a good appearance, so my junior sister will not be wronged."

Yu Shishi was on the spot in a daze, and there was silence in the cave.The three of them looked at each other with eyes wide open, and Qi Lingshu alone meditated with his eyes closed.

Murong Xue broke the embarrassment and asked, "What are the two senior brothers doing here?"

"Of course it's to hide from those evil things," Yun Zhi said with a smile, "Could it be possible to be able to cultivate both?"

Qi Lingshu: "..."

At this moment, the glazed mirror was lit up, and Qi Yin's voice came from inside, "It's not a big deal, Nuluo was caught by those snake men, we are going to break through. After half a stick of incense, you rush to the hole in the north of the statue of Fuxi, I'll come pick you up."

"Oh, I just rested for a while, and I have to go on the road again." Yun Zhi stretched his waist, "Junior brother and sister, let's go?"

"There are so many evil things outside, how did we get to the place that the white-haired man said?" Yu Shishi wondered.

Yunzhi raised his eyebrows and smiled, showing his big white teeth, "The straight line distance from here to the cliff is only one zhang, that is to say, let's go out from here, turn around the corridor on the left, and the wall facing south is at Fuxi North of the statue."

It was south and north again, Yu Shishi was dizzy and couldn't figure it out.She is a road idiot, and she never remembers when she walks, not to mention that the roads here are intricate and messy like a ball of thread.Murong Xue muttered: "I know the way you said, that's where my senior sister and I came from. There is no hole there, we can't get out."

"It doesn't matter," Qi Lingshu wiped Wen Xuejian, the sword was shiny, reflecting his indifferent face, "If there is none, just blow one out."
