Zha Gong's evolutionary path

After the third watch, the moonlight dimmed.The silvery light was hidden behind a large cloud, and the shadows of the trees could barely be discerned in the Onmyoji Room.

The door of the main house opened quietly, and a figure shot out quickly, heading straight for the courtyard on the east side of the main hall.

He was familiar with the traps on the road, as soon as Fang stepped into the forbidden courtyard, he immediately turned over with a kite to avoid a row of willow leaf flying knives shot across the sky.Sweeping three feet to the right, a huge boulder suddenly fell from the ground where he was standing, smashing the ground into fine cracks.

Lin Gongru didn't dare to be careless, he didn't touch the ground, and jumped under the big banyan tree where he had been hiding.

As soon as he stepped into the shadow of the banyan tree, he immediately hugged the tree with his hands and feet, and jumped up the thick branch like a hozen.Standing still on the tree, staring at the bottom of the tree, a few bushes of ground thorns just happened to emerge from the bluestone slab with grinning teeth, shining coldly in the indistinguishable black and gray shadow of the banyan tree.

As long as he slows down for half a breath, he can poke his legs and feet right through.

He secretly wiped his cold sweat, only to feel that his back was already wet.

In the night, the dining hall facing the big banyan tree stands there alone, quiet and peaceful, like a harmless little animal that can be manipulated by others, or like a cold monster with its claws put away, calm and composed.

Lin Gongru clings to the tree with one hand while silently counting the time in his heart.

These days, he calculated that the most difficult time to break through the gate of life is the time when Zi Chou intersects. At this time, the yin energy is the strongest and the yang energy is the weakest.It stands to reason that Shengmen should be the easiest to break through when the yang energy is at its peak. However, this yin-yang art room is extremely strange, and it seems to go against the normal five elements and gossip.

He waited for another breath, when a cloud shadow slid across the sky, leaving behind a discernible light, he kicked his feet suddenly, and rushed towards the entrance of the dining hall like an arrow.

The ground sank when it sensed his intrusion, revealing the big hole that once trapped his feet.

Lin Gongru didn't even look at it. As soon as his ankle touched the cracked hole, he immediately inhaled and pulled himself up. A carp leaped backwards, avoiding the pure black marble wall that rose suddenly against the tip of its nose, and directly crossed the place. The cold, stiff and heavy stone slab rushed towards the concealed firewood gate.

The firewood door opened and closed, and in the blink of an eye, he was already standing in the empty, clean kitchen without a trace of dust.

This place was exactly the same as the one he had seen a few months ago. In the misnamed kitchen, there was only one wooden chopping board, which stood coldly on the largest stone platform.

Lin Gongru pulled out his back /spear/spear/, and slashed towards the ground without hesitation.

There was a clanging sound.

He used [-]% of his strength for this confident blow, and he was confident that he could pry open a crack in the ground with the heavy blow.

However, as soon as the gun was struck, it was like hitting a towering mountain head-on, and the huge rebound vibrated back, causing him /long/gun/ to almost fly away from his hand, and the ground remained motionless, without even a single scratch.

It's really difficult to see the devil.

He spat, and tied the /long/spear/ back to his back again. He half-kneeled down, groped the ground with his hands, and tapped his knuckles lightly on the cold ground.

They knocked one after another, and finally heard a hollow sound on the ground near the stone platform.

This time, I have learned a lot, so I don't try hard anymore. I draw a rough range along the hollow sound with my fingers, and continue to grope along the sideline little by little until I find a loose gap.

right here! !

He knew that he didn't have much time, and if he delayed for too long, Gu Jianyin would have to get up immediately, and he would inevitably pester him again.

The loose gap was getting bigger and bigger. After a slight peeling sound, a piece of the heavy ground was lifted, revealing the dark and dark entrance of the secret passage.

Lin Gongru was overjoyed for a burst of joy, it turned out to be smoother than expected!

He ignited the torch that he had secretly hidden during the day, and leaped lightly towards the entrance of the cave.

The landing is very stable, the hole is not too far from the ground, it can accommodate adult men to pass through with their backs straight, and there is still ample space between the top of the head and the top of the secret passage; the gap between the stone walls on both sides can accommodate two people side by side.

Lin Gongru held up the fire and took a look around. Looking within the range of the fire, the ground under his feet was dry and smooth; the stone passage was straight, and there was no moss growing on the left and right stone walls. It seemed that it was a passage for people to enter and exit leisurely, and it was well maintained. .

In normal times, Gu Jian should have taken this secret path, leading to the outside of the Yin-Yang Art House.

The length of this secret passage is unknown, and the light of Huozhezi is far from reaching the end, and the flow of wind from the outside cannot be felt.

As soon as he took a step, the soles of his feet suddenly stopped, and another person in his arms who was in a similar situation flashed before his eyes.

At that time, the ground was full of poisonous insects, snakes, scorpions and centipedes were crawling around in the Gu cave, and the stench came from the nostrils.He hugged that person, full of joy, even if he died, he was willing to make a breakthrough, and once thought that if he got out of that Gu hole, he would usher in life.

But it turned out that his fate had already been sealed.

The flame reached the tiger's mouth, and suddenly it was scalding, Lin Gongru came back to his senses with a jolt.

Now is not the time to be cranky.

He carefully untied the /long/gun/ and placed it in front of him, ready to deal with any sudden danger.Taking a deep breath, just as he was about to move forward, he suddenly felt his shoulders sink, and a ghostly hand stretched out diagonally, resting on his right shoulder.

In the silent and dead night, a cold hand was placed on the back suddenly, Lin Gongru's scalp exploded, and goose bumps burst out all over his body.Without even thinking about it, he slumped his shoulders, turned around and shot.

The person behind him dodged lightly, and in the not-so-spacious secret passage, the eight-foot/long/gun/bringing sparks grazed the stone wall, making an unpleasant dragging sound.Lin Gongru retracted his gun and fought back, and just turned around, and when he glanced around, he froze in place.

Wrapped in a pitch-black robe, Gu Jian looked at him silently, his eyes flickering with light.

"You can't get out." He said suddenly, with a flat tone without ups and downs, which sounded extraordinarily cool and calm in this cold night.

Lin Gongru and Gu Jian were separated by a few feet, holding a /long/spear, and the palm of the hand was hot.After Gu Jian said this, without seeing how he moved, his figure suddenly floated forward, and he easily caught Lin Gongru's arm: "Follow me back."

Lin Gongru took a step back, turned sideways to avoid his palm, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "How do you know if you don't try?"

Gu Jian turned his back on him and held on to his veins tightly: "Follow me."

This tone was uncharacteristically, and he didn't call him the young master. Gu Jian didn't even use the superficial pretense, and directly used the tone of command.

Lin Gongru was furious, but smiled even wider, "This is the gate of life, from here you can leave the house of yin and yang, this young master wants to leave now."

He was still burning a fire book in his hand, and when his voice fell, Gu Jian suddenly felt his eyes go dark, and then he felt his hands loosen.

Lin Gongru extinguished the light source, took advantage of his short breath, slipped off his wrist like a loach, and retreated towards the depths of the secret passage with the gun in hand.

The footsteps of the young man were extremely soft, and after day and night hard work, he was able to conceal the sound of his feet landing, but he still couldn't hide it from Gu Jian's eyes and ears.

The shadow guard realized that he wanted to rush in, his face darkened, and he secretly yelled and made a fuss; he didn't dare to continue thinking, and followed Lin Gongru's breath.

Lin Gongru retreated quickly, and Gu Jian chased even faster. In the blink of an eye, the two chased one after the other into a stone room.

Gu Jian stood still for a moment, and keenly caught Lin Gongru's spear point flickering faintly, swaying behind another stone wall.

He immediately said: "The door of life also has spells, and you can't find the exit with brute force. You will only circle back and forth in this secret passage."

"..."

Gu Jian said patiently: "Unless you defeat me, the secret way will become a life door for you to get out."

"..."

He made a wrong step, his figure drifted, and he blocked Lin Gongru at the exit on the other side of the stone chamber.

Lin Gongru found that he couldn't go any further. His eyesight was far inferior to that of Gu Jian in the dark secret passage, so he was forced to rekindle the remaining flames.In the trembling light of the fire, he saw Gu Jian pursing his lips and frowning with a cold face, as if he was a big trouble, far worse than the two words he held on the longevity tablet.

His heart ached, and he wanted to pretend to be calm, and even smiled: "I'm so sure, I can't beat you?"

Gu Jian: "Your strength is not yet reached."

He was telling the truth, but unexpectedly it aroused Lin Gongru's competitive spirit.

The shadow guard no longer claimed to be a subordinate, and it was clearly written in his eyes that he no longer intended to regard him as the young master. Lin Gongru simply broke the jar and laughed, "It may be difficult on the ground, but in this secret passage that is inconvenient to move Not necessarily." Sen Han flashed the tip of his spear, "——It's the same if I beat you here."

Long/spear/one straight, as fast as a golden snake, went straight to Gu Jian's face.He knew that he was not strong enough, so he would never hold back any moves, he only wanted to win.

Gu Jian was blocking the exit of the stone room, turned his head aside, and the /long/gun/ whizzed past the hair on his sideburns, the sharp point of the gun cut off several strands of hair, unexpectedly, Lin Gongru was so diligent in a short period of time Quite a lot.Before he could be startled, the next shot came suddenly, and he took off the disc.

The space in this secret passage is limited, it is difficult for the two of them to fight freely, and there is even very little room for avoidance and dodge.

Gu Jian could only jump up on his back, barely avoiding it, but this time before Lin Gongru could make another attack, he lightly jumped onto the handle of his gun which had sunk below, and his body was heavily stagnant.

There was a loud bang, the strength of Lin Gongru's own moves combined with the strength of Gu Jian's body sinking on the gun, a good /long/gun/ instantly sank five inches into the ground of the secret passage.

Lin Gongru wanted to draw his gun back but couldn't /twitch/move/, Gu Jian stepped firmly on his weapon, and raised his eyes to look at him, which meant that the victory and defeat had been decided in an instant.

He was so angry that he wished he could throw the gun up and fight with someone in his arms. In the light of the fire, the face of the shadow guard suddenly changed.Before Lin Gongru could react, she saw Gu Jian rushing towards him and shouted, "Hold your breath!!"

Snow-white smoke suddenly sprayed from all directions of the stone room, and before Lin Gongru had time to speak, it had sprayed the two of them on their heads and faces.

It was too late to say it, but then it was too fast, Gu Jian covered himself up and rushed forward, flicking his fingers quickly, hitting several important acupuncture points on Lin Gongru's body as fast as lightning, protecting his heart veins; When holding your breath, you have already accidentally inhaled most of it.

The smoke worked so quickly that Gu Jian's eyes went dark, and the soles of his feet went limp in an instant, and he fell straight towards Lin Gongru.

"Gu Jian!!"
