According to legend, a hundred years ago, Jielongyin appeared briefly in Guli Town.At that time, Xixin Valley had not been destroyed, and the underground passage leading to the bottom of the valley was full of traps. Someone once secretly stole Jielong Seal and wanted to go to the depths of God's Domain to crack it. Invasion, and finally died on the spot, in a miserable state of death.

It is said that this secret passage was formed naturally, rather than artificially built in the later period. The Xixin Valley of the God Realm once repelled all demonic and filthy things from all sides, which made the helpless evil in the valley continue to spread and flow outward. Later, the stone walls around the valley were completely corroded and penetrated, so that the early prototype of the dark passage could first appear.

However, 16 years ago, Yan Jue was seriously injured and fell to the bottom of the valley. After several times of washing in the Demon God's Domain, he failed to get rid of his roots. Instead, he mastered all the forbidden techniques in a short period of time, and then—— Destroying the Valley and Tumen , Committed many deviant heinous crimes one after another.

"Yan deceived the true biography of the former Feng'ai sword master. He practiced the swordsmanship of a high-quality hand, but what he did... was full of sinful things that insulted the master."

Among the rough stone roads in the depths of the dark passage, there is only a paper lantern swaying from side to side to guide the direction in the turbulent airflow.

Gu Hebai walked alone at the forefront of the darkness, while reaching out his hand to feel the undulating and cold stone walls around him, he still did not forget to say to Xue Lanyin inexplicably: "'Fengaisu Sword'... have you heard of it? ?It is just an ordinary three-foot wooden sword. In the hands of the sword master, it has become a peerless sword for slaying demons and eliminating evil. Feng'ai sword master is an old man who has been upright all his life. The devil's rebellious person—I don't want to, one day my apprentice will become a monster in the eyes of the world, alas, I don't know whether to say it is indignant or sad..."

The corrosive atmosphere of the ground is particularly depressing.

Because Xue Lan walked slowly on the step-shaped boulder a few feet away from Gu Hebai, her complexion was cold, and even the whole person fell into a long and strange silence.

He didn't understand Yan Hao's past.The only fragments of words were heard occasionally from people's mouths. If he really wanted to talk about it, he, as an apprentice, actually knew nothing about his master.

Just thinking about it like this makes me feel particularly blocked.

The stone road in the dark passage is not as easy to walk as it was when I went down to the ground.As Gu Hebai had just revealed unintentionally, after the Xixin Valley was destroyed, there was nowhere to put all the evil and filthy things, so they could only be pushed outward continuously.

Even a woman of a foreign race with outstanding physical strength like Yun Zhehuan, under the extremely strong atmosphere of underground oppression, it is inevitable that she will have a little difficulty moving forward.

She didn't care what Yan Jue's master was like, and she didn't want to know how strong Feng'ai Sword Master was in the past.

There was only one thing, she was very disturbed.

"Deputy head Gu, the entire road below is your family's territory." Yun Zhehuan said, "If you want to secretly plan some small tricks in your heart, we have nothing to do with you."

Gu Hebai just smiled when he heard the words, and said: "If you don't believe me, just believe in the ghost-chasing needle in your hand...it won't lie."

Yun Zhehuan didn't take it seriously and said: "But after walking this road for so long, my eyes are full of stones, how can there be the two pirates you mentioned?"

Gu Hebai said: "You have already said that both inside and outside of Xixin Valley are the territory of my Lingtai Yijian Sect. If I don't know anything about the existence of the two of them, wouldn't the position of the head of the sect be useless?"

After saying that, he raised his arm high, exerted a sudden force, and pierced the sharp dagger in the center of the stone wall in front of him. Then, he gathered energy, twisted his wrist, and raised a finger to stab the end of the dagger The end is inlaid with dark pearls and jade.

In an instant, there was a loud noise like thunder, and gravel poured down like rain.

The force that seemed to shake the mountain from the ground crazily meandered all the way from the feet to the top of the head, shaking the unsuspecting three people behind them to stagger for several steps one after another, barely standing on their feet by relying on the thick stone wall around them.

After the shaking and turmoil around them seemed to calm down a little, the three of them raised their eyes again, and saw that the thick and powerful stone wall beside them was no longer there, and instead, it was carved out by a dagger. Huge hole.

I don't know how deep the hole is. When you look in, you can see uneven broken sand and stones everywhere. If you step on the incomplete and rough ground, your feet will be slightly worn.

I didn't understand what Gu Hebai meant by this move, I just lowered my head and glanced at the direction pointed by the Zhuming needle, heaved a sigh of relief, and asked in a dazed voice: "What is Deputy Head Gu planning to do?"

"The stone wall leads to the bottom of the valley. If you want to avoid detours, you can only go this way." Gu Hebai put back the dagger back into its sheath, and said, "However, the evil currents on the outskirts of the valley are retrograde, and what remains now are all those who devoted themselves to cultivating in the past. Demon barrier."

"Magic obstacle? What kind of magical obstacle?" Yun Zhehuan has always been ignorant of these things. He just bent down and leaned forward in the direction of the paper lantern, and said vaguely, "You guys who retreat and meditate every day, don't you still think about it? Something unclean?"

"Who says it's not?" Interjected lightly from the side of the pillow, "There is no gold and no one is perfect. No one can guarantee that those who have attained the Tao and cultivated immortals will not have half a distraction in their hearts. If others are like this, it must be Lian Gu's assistant. The door itself... can't be perfect."

Gu He rolled his eyebrows and said noncommittally: "Who can have no selfishness? It's just that you need to know how to weigh the pros and cons at critical moments."

After finishing speaking, looking at Yun Zhehuanyou's hesitant expression, Gu Hebai moved his lips, as if he wanted to speak and explain something, but when he tilted his head slightly, he saw Xue who was diagonally behind him. Lan Yin followed in slowly, consciously or unintentionally, stretched out his hand to lightly touch the top of the dilapidated stone wall on the side, and at the end, he rubbed/stroked left and right in a rather probing manner.

Gu Hebai raised his eyebrows, took advantage of the situation and took the paper lantern in his hand to shine along the road, and said, "How about it, do you still have some impressions of this place?"

Xue Lanyin paused for a while, raised her eyes under the dim light in front of her, looked at Gu Hebai indifferently, and said, "I don't have any impression, but I remembered something Mrs. Shen said to me."

Gu Hebai's eyes flickered, but his face remained calm and he said: "What did she say to you?"

"I didn't say anything." Xue Lan said, "I just kept emphasizing that I had been to the place of Xixin Valley... However, the general memory is just blank for me. What you say and do Yes, I can't understand or understand, but I seem to be an outsider."

Gu Hebai pursed his thin lips slightly, and said, "Didn't Yan Jue tell you anything?"

Xue Lanyin shook her head and said: "...Master wants to hide it from me, so why would he say it on purpose?"

Gu Hebai let out a long sigh, and said quietly, "I think, I can probably understand why he did this."

Xue Lan glanced at him, and was silent for a while, then suddenly seemed to think of something, and said to him without beginning and end: "... I am not interested in learning about other things. The only thing I want to find out now is , the only reason why Master he bloodbathed the Lingtai One Sword Sect 16 years ago."

Although the series of clues that he always carried in his mind were messy and confusing, but in fact, his framed thinking was so clear and clear that it cannot be questioned.

16 years.

His intuition reminded him all the time that everything Yan Jue did in Xixin Valley back then was inseparable from his vague past.

Therefore, he stared fixedly at Gu Hebai's bottomless eyes, and said again almost without hesitation: "...Deputy head Gu, don't tell me, you don't know anything about this. "

Gu He raised his eyebrows slightly, and waved his palm holding the paper lantern in front of his eyes, saying, "What do you want me to say?"

Xue Lan said: "You can say what you know, how much benefit can you get by hiding it?"

Gu Hebai smiled with a cold and indifferent face: "It's nothing more than some grievances and grievances between you and me, blood debts. Yan Jue has killed countless people in this life, and no one in the world wants to take his life... And what my senior brother said earlier... What I did was just doing justice for the heavens and eliminating harm for the people."

His words were perfunctory, and the direction was not clear yet. Xue Lan naturally knew it in his heart, but it was inconvenient to argue with him, so she thought about it for a while, and only slightly teased and said contemptuously: "Master Mo, do good deeds to do justice for the sky. , in the end, my master had his legs amputated for life, and he became paralyzed for the rest of his life... He is a decent man, heh, he is really wronged."

Gu Hebai's face was flat and unwavering, and he couldn't tell whether it was happiness or anger for a moment.

After a while, Fang slightly opened his lips to respond with some appropriate words, but suddenly his ears twitched, and Yun Zhehuan, who was walking not far away, let out a low cry of surprise, and immediately made the two of them feel warm. The unfired conversation was cut off in the middle:

"...Hey, hello! Look, what is this?"

If there was a lot of noise, Gu Hebai turned his eyes away, followed her voice and held up the paper lantern to look over, and said straightly: "What's all the fuss about?"

Yun Zhe's joyful voice was still suspicious, one hand was extremely twisted and climbed on the gravel wall of different heights beside him, stroked/moped repeatedly and explored: "There are bumps on this stone, what kind of mechanism is there?"

Standing behind her with arms crossed on the pillow, it is inevitable to dissuade her in a low voice: "Zhe Huan, be careful! Don't cause any trouble if you are so reckless."

For a moment, I saw that Gu Hebai was already stepping forward holding the paper lamp in his hand, the faint but dazzling light quickly flowed along the tiptoes to the top of the stone wall, and it was able to illuminate most of the bare wall in front of him very clearly and brightly. .

"It's not a mechanism." Gu Hebai narrowed his eyes and said knowingly, "It's a character."

Yun Zhehuan immediately stopped his movements, and asked in bewildered surprise, "Huh?"

"When the ancestors passed by here, they carved the characters on the wall with their own hands." Gu Hebai stretched out his arms, and his slender and powerful knuckles were stroking the fine lines lit along the paper lanterns. It was turned upside down, and a large part of the written information recorded inside and outside the valley was lost, and what remains today are only these stone walls that have not been corroded."
