Gu Shengchao originally planned to set off early the next morning. Seeing Liu Ximei's sleepy appearance, he asked her to have breakfast and catch up on her sleep. A sudden shower fell at noon, and in the afternoon the clouds were light and the wind was refreshing, and Liu Ximei felt energetic.

There were many, and Gu Shengchao was well prepared. He bought a few large cakes and packed them in case of any eventuality, and then the two of them set out on their way.

After leaving the city, there were basically mountain roads that were too high and steep to ride on horseback. The two left the horses at the inn, paid for a few days of accommodation in advance, and arranged for the waiter to feed the horses on time. Then they walked out of the small town. They had just reached the mountainside.

Liu Ximei was so tired that she was out of breath and couldn't move her legs, so Gu Shengchao carried her on his back and continued moving forward.

Gu Shengchao panicked and fell into the cave that night. When he returned the next day, he was so anxious that he didn't pay attention to the location. In addition, the stone tower collapsed completely, making it even harder to find from a distance. Dangerous peaks stood tall, and Gu Shengchao relied on his

I checked the peaks one by one based on my memory, walked around in circles several times, and finally found the rubble everywhere after the collapse of the stone tower.

There was some distance from the cliff to the entrance of the cave. Gu Shengchao carried Liu Ximei on his back as if walking on flat ground. Liu Ximei accidentally glanced down, and suddenly felt dizzy. She felt like she was floating, teetering on Gu Shengchao's back.

"I'm dizzy." Liu Ximei was scared.

"Hold me tight, close your eyes and don't look around." Gu Shengchao calmed her down.

Liu Ximei quickly closed her eyes. As Gu Shengchao moved, she began to feel seasick, as if she was in the cabin, with waves lapping against the side of the ship and swaying in the river.

"We're here." Gu Shengchao stopped.

Liu Ximei opened her eyes and saw a narrow opening on the cliff, only allowing one person to enter or exit.

"Is this right here?" Liu Ximei was unsure.

Gu Shengchao turned sideways and held her in his arms, and told her, "I'll support you below. You climb in first."

Liu Ximei had never drilled through such a small hole since she was a child, so she was a little worried, but thinking that it could cure the poison on her body, she gritted her teeth and crawled in. Gu Shengchao followed later.

It was dark inside the cave, so Gu Shengchao took out the Huozhenzi to encourage her. After a while, the two of them adapted to the environment in the stone chamber, and the weak light from the Huozhezi seemed superfluous. Gu Shengchao observed carefully, and found that the stone room was the same as last time.

No one should have come in.

Liu Ximei sat upright, took off her mask and said softly: "I'm ready, please give me the detoxification." There was an echo in the stone room, and the lingering sound became even more pleasant to the ears.

Gu Shengchao was in trouble. He didn't know how to explain to Liu Ximei and his face turned red. Fortunately, it was dark inside the stone room and he couldn't see clearly. It was even more embarrassing outside.

Liu Ximei didn't know the reason and said worriedly: "Young master, if you have any difficulties, feel free to mention them. As long as you can cure the poison on your body, I'm not afraid of hardship."

Gu Shengchao hesitated and said: "Well, my elder brother taught me the method, that is, just..." He was embarrassed and still couldn't speak.

Liu Ximei didn't understand, so she whispered: "Don't be afraid if you need money. Although I don't have many banknotes, I think it's enough. I'll pay as much as you want."

Ancient Sage Chao waved his hands repeatedly: "Girl, you are worrying too much. You don't need money, but I just can't say it."

Seeing his shy look, Liu Ximei seemed to understand, and she said generously: "The poison in my body was accumulated as a cauldron when I was practicing dual cultivation. Seeing the embarrassment on the young master's face, if I am not wrong, you must also practice dual cultivation to detoxify, right?

"

Gu Shengchao nodded and said shyly: "I just wronged the girl."

Liu Ximei smiled faintly and said with relief: "I don't know who my parents are. I only vaguely remember that they were sold to Miaochun Pavilion. Since then, no one has really cared about me or shown consideration to me. Some have only bullied the weak.

I was trying my best to learn music, chess, calligraphy and painting, just to survive. Many sisters around me disappeared for no reason. I was afraid, I was afraid that I would just throw them away like dead dogs like them. I thought all men in the world were cold and inhumane.

, it was not until I met Young Master that I felt the feeling of being cared for for the first time. It was so warm and beautiful. I know Young Master is a good person. In order to detoxify, please put aside your worries. I will not blame Young Master, but I am very grateful."

Gu Shengchao was at a loss and said: "Then please tell me the formulas and techniques for practicing. My elder brother said that as long as the yin and yang are reversed, the poison can be expelled."

"This set of exercises is simple. It shouldn't be difficult for me if you are a master of martial arts." Liu Ximei told Gu Shengchao everything, and he wrote them down one by one. Liu Ximei then undressed and took off his belt, closed his eyes and waited for Gu Shengchao.

The ancient sage Chao saw that the light was shining through the entrance of the cave, which was very dazzling. He was afraid that someone would peek, so he took the fire folder and went to the place where he accidentally fell and first entered from the stone chamber. It was now blocked by the rubble from the collapsed stone tower.

Some large stones were stacked at the entrance of the cave to block the light. He found a large stone, two feet square, with an angled edge and pierced it downwards. He lifted it up with both hands, and a small hole suddenly appeared under the stone. He was afraid of snakes and scorpions.

He rushed out and quickly pressed the rocks up.

The light at the entrance of the cave was blocked, and Gu Shengchao extinguished the fire, hiding his shyness in the dark environment.

Yin and Yang blend together, and the turbid true energy in Liu Ximei's body slowly enters the ancient sage's super meridians. Through the purification and filtration of the Dantian, the pure true energy is reinjected into Liu Ximei's body. The filthy toxins are discharged from every part of the body along with the dense heat of the ancient sage's super.

An acupuncture point slowly appeared.

After a long time, most of the impurities in Liu Ximei's body were removed, and there were still some details accumulated in the meridians, which would not be easy to eradicate for a while. Liu Ximei was weak and exhausted from long-term practice. She said, "I'm so tired."

”, then he lay down and fell asleep.

Gu Shengchao stood up and covered her with his clothes to prevent her from catching cold. He thought of the small hole under the stone, and he always felt that something was wrong. He had seen many holes of snakes and scorpions, and it was not like that. He took out the fire stick to illuminate it, and moved the stone away.

If you look closely, you will see that the entrance of the cave looks like a thick slab of bluestone that was slammed down by a heavy object from above.

He was in trouble. If he dug down hard, the bluestone slab would not be able to support the collapsed gravel above, and would still fall down, filling the space below again.

The ancient sage was sweating and his mouth was dry, so he went to lick the clear spring that was oozing out. He looked at the direction of the water. There was a place on the floor of the stone room that seemed to be seeping down, and the water stains smudged a small area. He

Overjoyed, he summoned his sword and stabbed downwards. The piece of stone was not as soft as expected, but it was not that hard either.

The ancient sage was very careful and used the tip of his sword to dig down little by little, slowly gouging out a small pit. The small pit was then dug into a deep pit. Suddenly, the water in the pit disappeared, and the thin water flow into the pit disappeared.

It leaked down. He was overjoyed and found out that there was a cave underneath the stone chamber.

The entrance of the hole is as thick as a thumb, and nothing can be seen in the darkness below, but misty spiritual energy rises up one by one.

Martial arts practitioners practice arduously every day in order to absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to increase their internal strength. The ancient sage's super strong internal energy is all due to the accidental absorption of the pure spiritual energy of the pure spiritual fetus in Mengyou Villa. If ordinary practitioners want to speed up their progress,

The most direct way is to buy spiritual stones to help absorb them. However, spiritual stones come from spiritual mines, and spiritual minerals are extremely rare. As a result, the price of spiritual stones is extremely high, and ordinary people cannot afford them.

The spiritual energy floating at the moment fascinated the ancient sage. He didn't know whether it was a spiritual mine or a spiritual stone below.

The ancient sage accelerated his excavation and expanded the hole to a size that could be drilled down. He tore off a small piece of his robe, lit it, and threw it down. It was already extinguished before it hit the ground.

There is miasma.

Gu Shengchao was not in a hurry. No insects or snakes could survive in such an environment, so there was no need to worry about poisonous things crawling up. He was also tired, so he extinguished the fire and sat cross-legged at the entrance of the cave, practicing while absorbing spiritual energy.

After descending from the cliff and entering the cave entrance of the stone chamber, there were obvious gaps between the stacked stones, and moonlight came in. Only then did the ancient sage realize that it took them four or five hours to detoxify, because it was the last quarter of the moon and the moon only appeared in the latter half of the night.

.

When I woke up, the stone room was bright and bright. The morning sun reflected half of the sky red, making the stone room look red too.

Gu Shengchao opened his eyes and found that he was wearing a robe. Liu Ximei had already been fully dressed and sitting at the entrance of the cave. The rays of light came in, making her cheeks even crimson and brighter.

"Young Master is awake." Liu Ximei spoke softly.

Gu Shengchao yawned and said ashamedly: "I went to bed late last night and actually overslept." He quickly got up and put on his clothes.

Liu Ximei saluted and said: "Thank you for your help, sir. My luck didn't feel blocked at all just now. The toxins should have been swept away!"

The ancient sage was embarrassed: "Girl, you have been rewarded. Most of them have been eliminated, but there are still a few that have not had time to be eliminated. It will take some time to eradicate them."

"Don't worry, the poison in my body is accumulated over the years. It's just hard work." Liu Ximei expressed her heartfelt gratitude to Gu Shengchao.

"Girl, you're welcome. It's a simple task for me." Gu Shengchao took away the stones piled up at the entrance of the cave. The stone room became brighter and brighter. He took out the big cake and shared it with Liu Ximei. By the way, he also mentioned that he discovered that there was spiritual energy underneath last night.

Liu Ximei was also pleasantly surprised: "I used several spiritual stones when I was studying at Miaochun Pavilion. It is said that each piece is worth a lot of money. Even Miaochun Pavilion, which has strong financial resources, plans to use it. This shows that this item is really rare."

The ancient sage lit a fire and looked down at the entrance of the cave. Liu Ximei noticed the damage on his robe: "Young Master's clothes are torn. Let me mend them for you when you return to the inn. I have also learned a thing or two about female celebrities."

"Let's skip this!" Gu Shengchao tore off another large piece of his robe, lit it on fire, and threw it from the entrance of the cave.

Liu Ximei understood what he meant and ran to the entrance of the cave to look down.

This time the clothes did not fall to the ground, and kept burning until all the fabric was used up. With the brief light, you could roughly see the situation below. In the same position as the stone room above, there were bookshelves against the wall, and spiritual stones were neatly stacked on the other side.

, the spirit stone occupies nearly half of the space. The clothes just fell on the spirit stone.

Gu Shengchao told Liu Ximei, "I'll go down first and you wait above."

He first threw the fire stick toward the side without the spiritual stone. Seeing that the fire was still shining, he jumped down from the entrance of the cave, first landed on the spiritual stone, and then jumped from the spiritual stone to the ground.

There are many martial arts secret books on the bookshelf, most of which are about basic routines and Qi training. There is a book in the back that is quite special. It is not copied on paper. Judging from the quality, it should be bound with sheepskin staples. The cover has four large characters.
