across mountains and seas

Jing Lan's nostrils moved slightly, and the special fragrance from inside the huge bronze door reappeared, which meant that the algae filaments wrapped around people's ankles were nearby.

"Be careful of your step." Liu Xi reminded in a low voice, turned around, pressed against Jing Lan's vest, and looked vigilantly at the stone gaps where light and shadow leaked.

Jing Lan deliberately took half a step forward, not wanting to get too close to Liu Xi.

Ning Guang and Jing Yue got out of their sheaths almost at the same time, with a saber and a sword in their hands, while looking around, they walked slowly along the stone path.

A rustling sound suddenly sounded between the stone gaps.

Liu Xi heard the exact position, stepped on her toes, jumped up and swiped the knife—Jingyue's blade drew a deep mark along the top stone wall, revealing the crazily surging algal filaments inside.

"Alan!" Liu Xi only called softly after landing on the ground.

Jing Lan stepped on the ground tacitly, and condensed the light to draw a bright sword light against the algae thread, like a wind and snow that invaded the valley, brushing over the algae thread seemingly lightly, but the sword edge had already been cut off algal filaments.

The chopped algal filaments fell to the ground, like loaches writhing wildly out of the water, but Jingyue would not give them any way out.

A knife arc flashed, and the algal filaments on the ground were instantly broken into two pieces.

The algae silk hidden in the rock gap seems to be ready to escape here, and Jing Lan will not give it a chance to escape.Jing Lan picked up the sword in the air, the blade hooked Zaosi's tail, twisted his wrist and danced a sword flower, and the Zaosi was entangled tightly by Jing Lan's sword edge.

When Jing Lan's figure landed, she pulled the algal filaments and landed on the ground together, as if pulling a bunch of small snakes out of the nest at the same time in an instant. As long as people look at those twisted algal filaments, they can't help but feel scalp numb.

"Liuxi!" Jing Lan steadied her momentum, and called softly.

Liu Xi nodded, the edge of Jingyue's blade trembled slightly, and a seemingly invisible arc flashed out. Like a flying crane passing through the clouds, she slashed into the center of the tangled algae silk with incomparable accuracy.

A puddle of black blood splashed out, Liu Xi drew his knife and swerved to avoid it, but a few drops of black blood were still splashed on the shoes.

Strange to say, this black blood is surprisingly fragrant.

The fluffy silk struggled crazily, several times it tried to fly out of the silk and entangle Jing Lan's feet, but Jing Lan turned over to avoid it.Jing Lan turned around to avoid it, and spotted a protruding stalagmite. She quickly pulled the algae filaments to wrap around the stalagmite, wrapping them one by one like coiled wire.

The algae silk retreated violently, the force was really fierce, Jing Lan couldn't wrap around the stalagmite for a while, so she summoned her inner strength and shook the blade.

With brute force, she is definitely no match for this monster.

But when it comes to "letting off" energy, Jing Lan has her own way.

Everything in the world, if it is a living thing, must have bones and muscles.This tremor, if it was an ordinary person, would definitely be soft and soft, but if it was this fierce thing, Jing Lan was [-]% sure that it would not be able to send out any strength for a while.

Sure enough, the ball of algae shrank suddenly, and did not compete with Jing Lan any more.

Just at this time, Liuxi's shocking moon fell again, and the ball of algae silk instantly collapsed on the ground like soft mud, and fell into the gurgling black blood that flowed out.

The fragrance is overflowing.

Liu Xi looked up at Jing Lan worriedly, seeing that she was safe and sound, she breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for three days, this martial art has improved again."

"Why are you two shooting so hard?!"

Before Jing Lan could open her mouth, half of Youyou's head poked out from the rock gap, and she shouted at Liu Xi angrily, "I'm a Zao that took ten years to grow, and you just dealt with it like this! There is one waiting below!"

Liu Xi and Jing Lan put away their weapons together, looked up at Youyou, and said in unison——

"Miss Youyou, come down and let's do the math."

"You are coming down!"

Youyou gritted her teeth with hatred, and said angrily: "I won't accompany you to find death! This stone road has many traps, so you can't walk through it! This girl kindly asked A Zao to catch you up and walk away, but instead, you took my revenge. Azao killed, I will ask you ten times for this debt!"

"Miss Youyou, are you still not telling the truth?" The smile on Liu Xi's face disappeared suddenly, and she looked at her solemnly, her eyes were cold, as if covered with frost, "The so-called cooperation should be Sincerely, Miss Youyou deliberately trapped me and Alan in Hailongling, what exactly is she trying to do?"

Youyou sneered and said, "If I tell you the truth, will you believe me?"

"Whether it's true or not, I can judge for myself." Liu Xi said frankly.

Quietly silent.

While waiting for Youyou's answer, Jing Lan hurriedly glanced sideways at the end of the stone path. This stone path is very ordinary, and even if there is a mechanism, it must be a hidden arrow.It is actually not very difficult to crack such an mechanism.

As for the hardened algal filaments on the ground, Jing Lan was a little curious.

She has also heard many rumors about the art of controlling beasts, but this is the first time she has seen one that can drive algae to seduce people.She picked apart the top group of algae filaments with the hilt of her sword, and found that the algae filaments were parasitic on the body of a large squid like a dodder.

She took a closer look, and shook her head violently. It's not that the algal filaments are parasitic on the giant squid, but these algae filaments grow from the giant squid.

It is not surprising that people who can defend against dolphins at sea, but this fierce creature in front of her is really unheard of. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she probably wouldn't believe a word of it.

Combining the strength of squid and the softness of algae silk, it seems absurd, but it coincides with the art of yin and yang.

Youyou is far more complicated than she imagined.

"I've thought about it carefully. You two killed my Azao. I'm angry. I don't want to tell the truth to you right now." Youyou suddenly opened her mouth, saying she was angry, but her face slowly revealed the truth. A sinister smile.

She stared at Jing Lan's face with a smile, "Young Master Jing, Young Madam, I'll be waiting for you at the end of the stone path. If...you can survive, I will tell you the truth." After finishing speaking, She giggled for a while, then slipped back between the stone gaps, and disappeared from sight again.

"She's obviously playing tricks on us." Jing Lan said firmly.

Liu Xi smiled calmly and said: "But there is one thing, I can be sure."

"She doesn't want to kill us." Jing Lan was also sure.

Liu Xi took a deep look at Jing Lan in surprise, "Not bad, Ah Lan."

"..." Being praised by Liu Xi, Jing Lan didn't know whether she should be happy or not.

Liu Xi suppressed a smile and asked: "Alan, do you believe what she said?" While speaking, her eyes looked at the end of the stone path from afar.

"Try and you'll know." Jing Lan hurriedly replied, glanced at the ground, bent down and picked up a few pieces of gravel that had been chopped down by Liu Xi.

She would never believe a word of Youyou's words.

Even if Youyou was waiting for them at the end of the stone road, Jing Lan felt that Youyou must have prepared an ambush to wait.She is not afraid of any of the traps on the stone path, but she is afraid that Youyou will summon some ominous creature to sneak attack.

"despair!"

Jing Lan threw a stone into the depths of the stone path, and the stone fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

After the lingering sound fell, there was no abnormality in Shidao.

Being vigilant, Jing Lan threw another stone on the left stone wall—the stone bounced to the ground and rolled for a certain distance, but there was nothing abnormal in the stone path.

Just when Jing Lan was about to throw the third stone, Liu Xi stepped into the stone path awe-inspiringly.

"Liuxi!" Jing Lan shouted anxiously, "I haven't finished trying yet!"

"I'll clear the way for you, it's much faster than you throwing stones." Liu Xi said with a chuckle, and strode in with Jingyue in hand.

Jing Lan followed quickly, "Nonsense!"

Liu Xi walked quickly, and soon reached the end of the stone path.

No mechanism was triggered!

Jing Lan was full of suspicion, and a knowing smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Liu Xi's mouth.

"why are you laughing?"

"Miss Xiaoyouyou actually found herself a step down."

Suddenly, Jing Lan held back her smile, "I knew she didn't dare to come down."

"Guess, will she wait for us behind this stone gate?" Liu Xi said while tapping on the stone gate at the end of the stone path.

Jing Lan shook her head, "Ghosts believe her words!"

"Yes, it's best not to believe a word, especially the words that she teased you." Liu Xi seemed to have something in his words.

Jing Lan frowned, "Liu Xi, what do you mean by that?"

"It's good that you understand." Liu Xi smiled with deep meaning.

Jing Lan wanted to explain clearly, but she hurriedly held back her words.

Why explain this to her?

"It's another fake door." Liu Xi intentionally interrupted this matter.

The back of the stone door is obviously solid, even if a chisel was used to carve a false door shape, it cannot be pushed open at all.

Hearing what Liu Xi said, Jing Lan looked around, there was no wall lamp, no relief, and the stone on the side of the door was polished extremely smooth.

The eyes of the two fell on the carvings on the stone door in unison—on the two halves of the door, the left half and the right half of the eye could be put together to form one eye, but they were carved up and down, as if It seems to be deliberately staggered.

Jing Lan looked carefully at the pupil on the left, and there was a small sea fish carved in it.

"This is the dragon." Liu Xi looked at the pupil on the right, thoughtfully.

Jing Lan seemed to have thought of something, she said to herself: "The eyes are up and down, the sea fish goes up to the sky to become a dragon, and the cloud dragon enters the sea to become a fish..." She was about to take a closer look at the carvings on the stone gate, and was surprised that Liu Xi was Looking at herself with a smile, she couldn't help giving Liu Xi a blank look, "What are you looking at me for?"

"Let me see if you can figure it out?"

"Why don't you want to?"

"You think the same as I think."

"Who thinks the same as you?!"

Liu Xi didn't get annoyed with her, just stomped her feet three times, and asked with a smile, "What did you hear?"

Empty, obviously empty below.

"come over!"

Jing Lan subconsciously reminded Liu Xi that it would not be a good thing if the door opened suddenly and she fell down and got injured, or if something ominous crawled out suddenly.

"Alan, you will catch me, won't you?" Liu Xi suddenly asked solemnly.

Jing Lan was stunned for a moment, "What am I arresting you for?"

I saw Liuxi parted Jingyue to her waist, and poked the left and right eye pupils on the stone gate with the index fingers of her left and right hands at the same time, and pulled it up and down, the left and right halves of the eyes on the two stone gates merged into one eye.

Liuxi discovered the hidden groove on the stone gate at the beginning. Although the stone gate cannot be pushed, it can be moved up and down.

The ichthyosaur is one body, and this complete eye should be restored.

"Crack!"

Sure enough, there was a sudden void under Liu Xi's feet, and a big hole was opened.

Jing Lan hastily stretched out her hand, and firmly grasped Liu Xi's hand, slowing down Liu Xi's fall.

Liu Xi suddenly spoke from below, "Let go."

Jing Lan said anxiously, "Didn't you let me hold you tight?"

"Ah Lan, good boy, I've already stepped on the stone steps, I won't fall to my death." Liu Xi's voice sounded again, without seeing her face, Jing Lan could already imagine her snickering.

Jing Lan let go of her hand in disgust, "Liu Xi, I'm warning you, if you do this again next time, no one will care whether you live or die!"

"It's fine that Ah Lan can take care of it." Liu Xi responded casually.

Jing Lan gasped, why didn't she see Liu Xi's thick skin in her previous life?

Not to mention that Jing Lan didn't see it, even Liu Xi didn't know that her skin could be so thick.

Liu Xi smiled self-deprecatingly, she has been "shameless" in the Dongjing family for so long, it doesn't matter if it is one more time.

As long as she can bring Jing Lan back safely, the life owed to Jing Lan in her previous life will be repaid with interest.
