The Monk

Chapter 142 Ghost Lake

After walking for more than an hour, we entered the center of the dark passage and could no longer see the big ice worm. Zhang was afraid that he would meditate to heal his injuries. This was the first time he had been injured since his cultivation. He took some life elixirs and various elixirs to his full stomach. I continued to meditate and regain my breath, and soon the injury was completely healed. Song Yunyi asked him: "Is the injury healed?" Zhang Ping said: "Okay, luckily I have the five elements magic weapon to protect me."

There was a big ice worm blocking the way ahead, so the two had to retreat to the lava pool. After walking around the lava pool, he found more than a dozen passages. Zhang Ain smiled bitterly: "It seems that we are unlucky. There are so many paths and we can choose the big ice worm."

The two walked around and chose a new passage that seemed auspicious to enter. This passage is also very long, very similar to the passage we just walked through. As he neared the exit, Zhang was a little nervous: "There won't be any more big ice bugs in there, right?" The little pig squatted on top of him and hummed, despising his timidity.

Finally walking out of the passage, there was another difference. There was no fire or ice, and it was pitch black as far as the eye could see. Zhang Ai condensed a ball of light to illuminate it, and it turned out to be a lake. Is there a lake in the ghost cave? It was indeed strange, and what was even stranger was that the water in the lake flowed silently.

The lake is very wide, filling the entire space outside the channel. There is a small island in the middle of the lake, about ten meters long and wide. There is a black-haired young man sitting cross-legged on the island. There is a thin black knife across his knee. The knife is completely black, and even the blade is black, from the tip to the end of the blade. Engraved with nine ghost heads.

Ghost knife? Zhang was frightened and was on guard.

The black-haired young man saw the ball of light shining at the entrance of the passage and shouted: "Put it out!" Zhang was afraid that before he understood what he meant, hundreds of spikes shot out from the lake and flew towards the two people and the pig. Zhang Ai hurriedly raised the golden crystal shield, only to hear the rustling sound. The golden crystal shield was full of spikes, just like a big hedgehog.

Evil! These magic weapons are extremely powerful outside, and even Nascent Soul masters may not be able to break them. If they enter the ghost cave, they will become useless. They can be bullied by anything.

Seeing that he was in a daze, the black-haired young man shouted hurriedly: "Quickly extinguish the ball of light!" Zhang Ai hurriedly extinguished it, and the lake returned to darkness. When I wanted to ask why, a cold voice of a black-haired young man came from the dark lake: "This is a ghost lake. There is a kind of fish in the lake called dark fish. It will go crazy when it sees the light. I don't care if you want to die. Don't involve me."

"Are you a ghost sword?" Zhang Weijing had many questions.

"You have no control over who I am." A cold voice sounded again in the darkness.

"What are you doing in the middle of the lake?" He really had a lot of questions.

"Nonsense, if I could leave, I would have left long ago!" Listening to his words, it seemed as if he was trapped here.

I still want to ask again, but the lake is turbulent and there is a sound of waves. Something hits the water and makes a clanking sound, followed by a plop sound falling into the water, and finally calms down.

Although he couldn't see what happened, he roughly guessed that something was attacking the black-haired young man. It was obviously pitch black in front of him, but Zhang Ping felt that there was a black line that stood out in the darkness. It flashed away. It should be the black line drawn by the ghost sword.

"Still not leaving? Do you want to come in and accompany me?" In the darkness, the young man suddenly spoke.

Zhang was afraid that he didn't understand the meaning of the young man's words, but he was always good at listening to what others said, so he pulled Song Yunyi back quickly. After a while, he exited Li Xu, guessing that the dark fish in the lake couldn't see him, so he popped up a light ball for illumination. As soon as the ball of light appeared, Zhang was startled again. The land inside and outside the passage disappeared and turned into a river, slowly flowing towards his location. The ground beneath my feet is soft, and I think it will turn into a river in a while. He hurriedly retreated and didn't stop until he was sure it was safe.

There are too many strange things and too many dangers in the ghost cave. How can we find an exit and leave here as soon as possible? Zhang was afraid that he had no clue. At this moment, he remembered the cold voice of the black-haired young man: "The lake has receded. Come back." So he took Song Yunyi and walked towards the lake again.

Sure enough, there was no more river in the channel, and the solid land reappeared, stretching all the way to the lake. Zhang Wen walked in and saw the black-haired young man looking around with a big ball of light. When he saw the two coming back, he said, "It's safe for now. Help me figure out how to get out."

Zhang Awei cupped his fists and said, "Thank you for reminding me, so I don't fall into the lake and be in danger." The black-haired young man glanced at him and sneered: "Do you think I'm making a fuss? Even if I fell into the water and just got wet, how could there be danger? ?" Zhang Wei quickly waved his hands to deny it. The black-haired young man ignored the authenticity of his words and said directly: "The distance between the lake and the passage from the small island to the passage, and the equal distance of the land in the passage, are the yin and yang roads of water and soil. The water and soil change alternately every hour, that is, It says that a road will appear in the lake between you and me, and at the same time the passage under your feet and behind you will turn into lake water; don’t imagine flying in the air, nothing can fly here, including magic weapons.”

Zhang was afraid to understand and asked: "Is this how you were trapped on the island?"

The young man said yes, and then added: "When the land in the passage turned into a lake, the walls became soft and could not bear the strength, and there were ferocious water monsters in the lake to sneak attack. It was impossible to escape by climbing on the wall." After he finished speaking, he held the knife fiercely. Standing there, the ball of light in his hand was thrown into the distance, then exploded and disappeared, leaving the cave filled with darkness again. The sound of clanging and splashing of water could be heard again in the darkness.

The young man continued in the darkness: "I don't know what kind of fish it is. It's so strong that even a ghost knife can't kill it. I'll invite you two to listen to the show for a while." As he spoke, the sound of clanging and crashing could be heard, and the darker knife in the darkness The threads waved back and forth.

The collision lasted for a while, and the strange fish finally got tired and sank into the water to rest. The black-haired young man said: "Run and come back later." Zhang Afraid and Song Yunyi retreated as he said, and sure enough, the land in the passage turned into a lake again, and the walls became too soft.

After waiting for a while, the land returned to its original appearance, and Zhang Song approached the lake. The young man held up a big ball of light and asked, "Have you thought of a way?" Zhang Ai looked around and saw that there was nothing but the lake and the passage, so he could think of any way. The young man was worried that Zhang Wei would not save him, so he solemnly promised: "Don't worry, as long as you save me, it doesn't matter what you say. I, Zhang Tianfang, owe you a favor. I will help you kill anyone you want to kill in the world."

Zhang Weijing was in a dilemma: "How to save me?" The black-haired young man had obviously thought about this problem and asked: "Do you have any discarded magical weapons, or any rope-like magical weapons?"

"I don't have any ropes, but I have spiritual silk." Zhang Ping thought of the big fat silkworm.

The black-haired young man's eyes lit up: "Better, better, as long as the two ends are fixed, I can walk over it." After saying this, the light ball disappeared, and he slashed with the ghost sword, and the clanking sound started again, and those who didn't know thought it was darkness There is a blacksmith shop in it. Zhang Tianfang said while chopping: "Go back to the passage first, and come and rescue me in an hour."

Zhang Weijing was a little worried and asked cautiously: "I can save you, but..." He was worried that something unexpected would happen if he rescued Zhang Tianfang, such as repaying kindness with enmity.

Zhang Tianfang said proudly: "With the name of my ghost sword Zhang Tianfang, how can I be a treacherous villain? Don't worry, my benefactor, I will swear the blood oath of the Holy Sect later." He had been trapped for too long and was anxious to get out. Seeing Zhang Wei was worried , swearing with blood to beg him to believe.
