no one knows better than me

The withered claws that emerged from the ground were extremely sudden this time, and everyone including the plum blossom ring did not react for a moment, and at the same time felt that their feet were empty and disappeared in place.

This magic circle was expanded out of thin air, similar to an illusion hidden in the void. Someone must have put it away suddenly, so what they felt being dragged into the soil was actually falling.

Zhuang Qingliu hastily grabbed Mei Hualan with one hand and Mei Sigui with the other, and the three of them fell together in the air for a long time without landing.She just thought that it would be very heavy when she fell to the ground, one hand suddenly went around behind her back, and the other lightly bent her leg, hugging her and fell to the ground smoothly.

"Uh... Mei Pan, cough cough cough!"

? ? ?There was darkness in front of him, Zhuang Qingliu just opened his mouth, and he felt like he had eaten a mouthful of sand. At the same time, the sound of howling wind suddenly sounded in his ears, and the feeling of heaven came again.

"Why...cough, I...???!!"

"Don't talk." A warm forehead suddenly pressed up, and Mei Hualan's voice in the sea of ​​consciousness was rare and solemn, "It's the wind."

"Wind?!" Zhuang Qingliu spun wildly in mid-air and hurriedly touched his sleeves, "Did I not put the big wind bag in place? Or did it open by itself?"

Meihualan seemed to have tried several times to drop it with a jack, but failed: "It's not a big wind bag, it's a natural tornado."

"Tornado???" Zhuang Qingliu wiped away the messy hair that was blown around her face, and quickly asked her, "Then where is this? Reality or an expanded illusion? Have we come out yet?"

"Come out, reality."

Mei Hualan spoke concisely, and quickly moved her forehead away after speaking. Zhuang Qingliu felt a bright golden light suddenly appear in the dark vision that she was not used to. Leaped to the ground.After a while, it seemed to be entangled in something in the whistling wind, and with a swish, it pulled them together.

This turned out to be a cave!

As soon as she landed on the ground, Mei Hualan immediately raised her hand and dropped an enchantment barrier towards the entrance of the cave. When the radiant barrier was about to touch the ground, a group of pitch-black shadows rolled in quickly from the last gap.

"What?!" Zhuang Qingliu kicked it out immediately, and at the same time motioned for Mei Sigui, who was turning into a bird, to turn back quickly.

- Swish!

As the fire talisman in Mei Hualan's hand ignited at the same time, the "something" kicked vigorously by Zhuang Qingliu slowly stood up on the spot, and said in a faint voice: "It's me."

"Uh... Little Sect Master Pei." Zhuang Qingliu couldn't bear to look directly at his nosebleed face, and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry! But—how did you come down from the sky?"

"It's okay," Pei Yi raised his hand in embarrassment and wiped his face vigorously, tore off two sleeves to block his nose, and said, "I saw the long golden rope jumping out of Mr. Duanzhu's hand, so I pulled it Put, it pulled me down with it."

Zhuang Qingliu and Mei Hualan glanced at each other quickly - if Pei Yi was there, it would be difficult to leave in a hurry.

"—But what's the situation? What about the other three?" Pei Yi swept across the empty cave.

That's right, Lan Song, Mei Xiaohan and Mei Siji were all gone except for Mei Sigui who subconsciously carried the bird into his arms by Zhuang Qingliu.

"Maybe it's still being blown by the wind and floating in the sky." Zhuang Qingliu quickly took out two messenger talismans from the sleeve of the plum blossom sleeve and said, "Sect Master Pei, please contact Sect Master Lan, and Mr. Duanzhu and I will contact the other two."

Pei Yi quickly said hello, looked worriedly at the gray sky and frantic hurricane outside, and walked a little to the side.

The magic talisman burst into blue light, Zhuang Qingliu heard the voice on the other side, and quickly called out: "City Lord Yan?"

Mei Xiaohan's voice was a little dazed at first, but soon became clear, and he said loudly, "Senior Zhuang, are you with Hualan and the others? Where are you?"

It didn't sound like it was still blowing in the wind, Zhuang Qingliu immediately said: "We are in a cave, aren't you in the air?"

"Why is it in the air?" Mei Xiaohan's voice was inexplicable, "I'm with Si Ji, we're in a...uh, a flowering place."

A guess flashed across Zhuang Qingliu's mind like lightning, and he exchanged a glance with Mei Hualan, and confirmed, "You didn't encounter a strong wind? Did you land on the flowering place?"

Mei Xiaohan's voice became worried: "Yes, what happened to you?"

That's right, they and Mei Xiaohan were sent to different places when they were dragged out of the illusion by the withered claws!I just don't know if this was intentional or accidental.

"It's a long story, let's talk about it when we meet." Zhuang Qingliu asked quickly, "Tell me what you have over there first? What is the general scene?"

"Uh...orchid."

"... Lingbi is full of orchids, and many people have the surname Lan." Zhuang Qingliu said, "Say something else?"

Mei Xiaohan seemed to look around for confirmation: "Nothing else, just orchids and blue sky, it seems to be an orchid valley."

Zhuang Qingliu covered her face with her hand, and after confirming again that she was the only one with Mei Siji, she quickly turned to ask: "Then are you and Siji safe?"

Mei Xiaohan said cautiously: "There should be no danger."

"Okay." Zhuang Qingliu and Mei Hualan looked at each other, "Then you guys find a way to get out of there for the time being and find out where it is. Meipan and I are fine. We will contact you at any time and we will meet again later."

Mei Xiaohan and Mei Siji are together, at least there is a support - but that is to say, Lan Song is alone now?

Zhuang Qingliu quickly turned off the talisman, turned to look at Pei Yi, Pei Yi had already confirmed, and said to her: "Brother Lan said that he was blown away by the hurricane, and now he fell alone in a valley with deep forests and dense trees. I know exactly where it is, and I was slightly injured."

Alone, that is, no one knows whether he is telling the truth or not.

Zhuang Qingliu nodded calmly to show that he understood, and then glanced outside the barrier, the hurricane was still raging in the dark, and it seemed that it couldn't stop for a while Pei Yi Ning brows also tilted his head and said: "Then what should we do? Stay here and wait for the hurricane to pass?"

"Yes, that's all there is to it."

After thinking for a while, Zhuang Qingliu asked Mei Hualan to light the Dao Fire Talisman, walked into the cave, and looked around carefully - there was no trace of man-made excavation in this cave, it seemed to be a natural wall hole, and there was a different hole in it. Small big hole.

Having not slept all night, Zhuang Qingliu was so sleepy that his mind couldn't turn. Just as he was about to say, "Let's go to sleep first and then talk about it", a black shadow suddenly passed by the corner of his eyes, and something jumped over from the corner of the wall like lightning. .

"what is this!!"

The palm on the side of the face slammed down sharply, and Zhuang Qingliu quickly turned the direction of the fire talisman following the movement of Mei Hualan. The two lowered their heads at the same time, and Pei Yi's face sank: "It turned out to be a snake!"

"Why are there snakes here?!"

As his words fell, the body of the snake that had been slammed down by a palm seemed to straighten up, and at the same time, the two bright and unusual eyeballs suddenly turned.

"wrong!!"

Zhuang Qingliu immediately raised his hand to pinch it - the things that were unusually bright in the snake's eyes were two magic charms, which had already been activated!

— Hiss.

In an instant, there were creepy rustling sounds from all around the cave wall, as if snakes crawled out from all directions.

Although Zhuang Qingliu couldn't stand snakes as icy cold things, and she didn't know whether they were poisonous or not, she quickly turned her head and pulled Mei Sigui behind her. The snake that was attacking towards the leap was a chop.

"It doesn't matter, Pei is the best at chopping snakes."

As he spoke, he took a few steps forward, and the eyes of those more sneaking snakes had two green lights like will-o'-the-wisps... Wait!

After Pei Yi finished chopping, he suddenly lowered his head, approached with a fire talisman to illuminate it, picked it up and looked at it: "...this is not a snake." How could the body of the snake be too hard to cut off.

At the same time, Zhuang Qingliu discovered that it wasn't Youyou Snake Eyes that had just shone from around the cave wall, these things didn't have eyes at all, and the two balls in the eye sockets were ghost fires!

These are bone snakes!

Pei Yi was no longer good at it all at once, the bodies of these bone snakes were as hard as steel, no matter how they were cut, they would not be damaged at all, and a burst of crackling sparks soon splashed in the dark hole.

Mei Hualan frowned a little, and tried twice with the sword wind in her arms, but she couldn't do it either.Instead, she threw a fire talisman over, and these bone snakes were not afraid of fire.

In this way, as long as the hurricane outside doesn't stop, sooner or later they will be exhausted from chopping snake bones in the cave—or... they will choose to go out and be blown into the sky.

Could it be that someone is forcing them out of the cave?

"Okay." As long as it's not a cold snake, Zhuang Qingliu said suddenly, "Look at me."

As she said that, she took two steps forward suddenly, stretched out her hand and grabbed it suddenly, grabbed a snake bone from mid-air as a whip, whirled behind the plum blossom ring in a circle, and beat all those bone snakes head-to-head and face-to-face.

The bone snake fell to the ground in an instant, its back was so sore that it couldn't lift it up, even if it managed to straighten its upper body, it quickly fell to the ground again.

Pei Yi was dumbfounded.

Zhuang Qingliu didn't stop at all, her feet were moving rapidly in the cave, and her hands swung wildly in a circle like a storm of evil wind, and the bone snakes flying around were quickly smashed down by her, flying from the air. Crash, bang, bang, bang... It fell apart and became a pile.

There was an eerie silence for two seconds.

"What are you still in a daze for?" Zhuang Qingliu swished, and threw the real snake that he pinched at the beginning to Mei Hualan through his sleeve, "Mei Pan, there are some magic charms nailed into the snake's eyes, pull it out quickly/ come out!"

As she spoke, she continued to smash violently, the snake bones collided with missiles everywhere, rocks and dust flew from above her head, half of the cave suddenly collapsed.

At the same time, Mei Hualan pinched her two fingers quickly, the narrow and slender snake eyes in her hand suddenly disappeared, and the non-stop rustling sounds from all around fell silent.

The controlled bone snakes also stopped moving.

Several people took a breath at the same time, Zhuang Qingliu threw the snake bone whip, walked closer to look at the little snake in Mei Hualan's hand for a while, and said: "Mei Pan, let it go, it is also being killed by someone. The innocent take control."

The little snake is only about as thick as a finger, and its body is green and tender. At this moment, it looks a little naive and cute, as if it can understand Zhuang Qingliu's words. The two black bean-like eyes are moist, and suddenly rushed She froze.

Zhuang Qingliu also seemed to understand what it was saying, and said: "That's not because of kindness, it's because you don't even have enough meat for us to eat."

snake:"……"

Pei Yi's face was gloomy, and after carefully checking the surrounding area again, he approached and took a look at the snake in Mei Hualan's hand, and then realized: "So what's going on? Is someone trying to use this thing to force us out? "

Zhuang Qingliu suddenly swept him up and down without saying a word.

Pei Yi looked at her keenly, and his face suddenly darkened: "Master Zhuang, do you doubt me?"

After a while, Zhuang Qingliu said truthfully, "That's not true."

This is a real snake with a magic charm attached to it, so it can use the bone snake to attack Zhuang Qingliu and the others, but at the same time, it shows that the person behind the manipulation is not very strong, because a person with good strength does not need to spend money. Such thoughts.

Pei Yi obviously belongs to the latter.

Zhuang Qingliu said quickly: "I just want Sect Master Pei to help guard the entrance of the cave. The hurricane will not stop for a while, so let's go in and sleep for a while. Since someone wants to force us out, at least it means that the cave is safe .”

Pei Yi: "..."

"Little Sovereign Pei, I trust you to entrust this task to you." Zhuang Qingliu winked at him, waved his hand, and then pulled Mei Hualan and Mei Sigui together, and the three of them entered the half-collapsed hole.

Mei Hualan quickly placed a barrier and soundproof symbols at the entrance of the inner cave, and then helped Zhuang Qingliu to straighten her hair: "Do you doubt Pei Yi?"

"That's not true." Zhuang Qingliu suddenly couldn't control himself and dropped his head on her shoulder, "I'm really sleepy and can't stand it."

Plum Blossom Lane: "..."

Zhuang Qingliu closed her eyes, clearly feeling her sudden sleepiness: "Mei Pan, why on earth do I become so sleepy every time it's time? Am I really a water lily?"

"..."

Mei Hualan's face moved in a strange way, and at this moment she even wanted to say: "I don't have that kind of thing."

Zhuang Qingliu: "...Then what did you raise?"

Mei Hualan leaned against her head, and seemed to laugh very lightly: "Kittens and birds."

Zhuang Qingliu: "..." How could this person be like this at a time like this.

She rubbed her head slightly away from Mei Hualan's shoulder, and said in a breathy voice: "I have something to discuss with you before going to bed."

Mei Hualan soon whispered, "Say it."

Zhuang Qingliu closed her eyes, leaned on her shoulder and whispered a few words, Mei Hualan quickly said without thinking, "No."

Zhuang Qingliu closed her eyes without opening them: "I know you can't do it, okay."

There was an inexplicable obedience in her non-refutation, Mei Hualan couldn't help but gently hugged her for a while before raising her hand to touch her head: "Okay, sleep if you want to sleep, first put— "

In the middle of her speech, the little snake that had just been released crawled back meanderingly without knowing when, swam silently to Zhuang Qingliu's feet, bounced high, and unexpectedly kissed her on the face.

"..."

"?????"

One of the two was so sleepy that his soul flew away for nine days, and the other was so engrossed in hugging that person that he didn't even react for a moment.

Zhuang Qingliu was frightened by the cold touch and bounced from Mei Hualan's arms on the spot, jumping eight feet high: "..."

What the hell is this? !What is this! !Why does everyone love to kiss her face? Is her face a shared face? !

Zhuang Qingliu stared ten times in shock and even kissed her snake queen, pulled out a handkerchief from nowhere, and wiped her face back and forth several times indifferently.

Mei Hualan seemed to be in a daze for a long time, then approached with two steps with an extremely unhappy face, suddenly threw the tip of the snake sword to Mei Sigui, then stepped forward to look at Zhuang Qingliu's face, then lowered her head and used her fingertips to move back and forth Kneading and rubbing back and forth for a long time.

Zhuang Qingliu: "..."

There was a bigger and more unacceptable reaction than hers.

Mei Sigui, who had been poking her head as soon as she entered the barrier, had already turned into a bird. After looking at Zhuang Qingliu curiously, she suddenly threw the snake under her claws in front of her again.

"..." What are you doing, Zhuang Qingliu flicked away, turning her head away.

Mei Sigui seemed to be very surprised by her frightened appearance. She took two comical steps towards her, and suddenly slapped out her claws. After knocking the little snake out, she looked at it for a while, and then called it to Zhuang Qingliu.

Zhuang Qingliu: "..."

What's up with this little birdie!

Mei Sigui blinked her eyes, seemed to suddenly laugh, and lightly touched the little snake's claws against the wall a few times. After waking up, she slapped her claws unconscious like lightning...back and forth several times, and told Zhuang with her actions. Qingliu: "Don't be afraid, it's very capable."

Little Snake: "..."

The corners of Mei Hualan's eyes seemed to twitch, she took out a small blanket from Zhuang Qingliu's Qiankun bag, laid it flat on the ground and said, "Okay, come and sleep."

Just as Zhuang Qingliu approached and lay down, Mei Sigui, who was going to dance at night, walked over in twos and twos, and lay down next to her like a chicken.

"?"

Mei Sigui didn't speak, but just lowered her head to look at her, a wing suddenly lifted into the air, and then the gorgeous crane feathers gently covered Zhuang Qingliu's body like a soft and fluffy quilt.

Zhuang Qingliu blinked curiously: "Is it okay?"

Not only that, Mei Sigui's wings can also dance up and down nimbly, patting Zhuang Qingliu's body lightly, as if coaxing her to sleep.

Zhuang Qingliu couldn't help being slapped twice by it, and quickly closed her eyes.

After a while, Mei Sigui lightly grabbed the corner of Mei Hualan's clothes, motioning for her to lie down too, and then covered her body with the other wing, Mei Hualan quickly said: "I don't need to..."

Mei Sigui innocently flapped her wings up and down.

Meihualan: "... a little lower."

The bird seemed to be too enthusiastic, after a while, Zhuang Qingliu suddenly opened his eyes, and pushed the fluff on his face: "Um..."

This most authentic duvet is still smart. Seeing that she was suffocating, she quickly moved it down.After a while, they quietly surrounded the two people's chins, as if they were bound to make them feel warm.

"..." Both of them tossed and tossed all night, they were really sleepy, so they had no choice but to fall asleep in the smell of birds.

The ear quickly fell silent, and when Zhuang Qingliu woke up again, he felt like he was falling weightlessly all over his body.

But this feeling of falling turned out to be weirdly real... She opened her eyes suddenly, the sky was already bright, and the wind was whistling in her ears

boom!

The only thing Zhuang Qingliu reacted to was... She seemed to have fallen into a pool of water again.
