On the bank of Wanhe Pond, Nanzhu, who was worried, walked back and forth uneasily. Suddenly he saw a graceful woman walking towards him. The charm immediately cheered him up, and he temporarily put his worries behind him. He felt that Old Shi
Wu Ting was cunning, so he probably wasn't that prone to accidents. He even straightened his clothes to make his stance more upright.
I didn't forget to take a sneak peek inside the shop, but I was afraid that Baili Xin would think too much if she saw it.
After taking a closer look to see who the visitor was, he immediately gave up his demeanor, because it was unnecessary. He also knew Lian Yu. When he first saw the lintel of Shi Xinju in Baizhangting, he had seen the person sitting on the door lintel.
Lianyu in the sedan chair.
The three brothers and sisters were together at that time. They were afraid that Lian Yu would recognize him, so they immediately turned around and faced Wanhe Pond to watch the sunset. As for the beauty, there was nothing interesting to see.
Of course, this was also because he didn't know that Mu Aotie and Lian Yu were having an affair, otherwise it wouldn't necessarily be the case.
Yu Qing didn't say much to tell him, not because he didn't want to tell him, but because it was inconvenient. Every time the two parties met, it was Baili Xin who met to hand over things. How could Yu Qing casually talk to Bai Lixin about such things?
Talk about business.
He originally thought that Lian Yu was just walking around here and might not come over, and even if he did, he would pass by him.
What he didn't expect was that Lian Yu stopped as soon as he came to him, stopping only ten feet away from him, and stood on the edge of the cliff to watch the sunset.
Occasionally, the breeze blows, and the graceful beauty's clothes flutter against the glow, like a painted scene.
The wind also brought body fragrance, and Nanzhu glanced at it from time to time.
Unfortunately, at a certain moment, Lian Yu suddenly turned his head, met his peeking eyes, and said, "Have we met before?"
"Uh..." Nanzhu immediately shook his head in denial, "No."
Lian Yu said nothing and said nothing more, but just stood here and continued to watch the sunset, as if he had no intention of leaving.
In fact, she just wanted to observe and see what the actions of Yu Qing and his gang were overt and covert, and to get some clues.
Huniu who was accompanying me slowly shook her tail, and occasionally glanced sideways at the shop...
Deep underground, Yu Qing and others, who had walked for quite some time without encountering a fork in the road, found that the passage ahead was getting wider and wider, and the walls were becoming smoother and smoother. It felt like a maze-like path ahead.
They are all the result of drying up and shrinking, and this is what the underground passage should have been like originally.
When we got to the back, the two teams could already run parallel to each other.
Suddenly, everyone stopped one after another. If there was no fork in front of them, there would be nine forks.
In other words, there are nine entrances in front of this passage, nine very large entrances.
Yu Qing subconsciously looked towards Duan Yunyou, guessing that this person should also know that the Toad King's lair was right in front of him. He wanted to know what this person should do next after pretending to be confused until now. If he really wanted to help the Zhenshan Gang
Can’t we rob Tongque Lake?
This is also the reason why he can bring people here honestly. He feels that Duan Yunyou must be holding something back.
Wei Yue also looked at Yu Qing, obviously waiting for route selection.
Yu Qing waved his hand and ordered all the poisons he brought to be thrown out. Several people who went out did so and threw all the prepared poisons into the nine entrances.
The situation was obviously different from before. The poisonous things that were thrown in suddenly turned around and ran away, running madly towards the way they came, even though they knew that there were a bunch of people in front of them who had just caught them. This happened at all nine entrances, without exception.
Wei Yue was stunned for a moment, then he opened his arms and pushed through the air, and the poison that escaped was shot back into the nine entrances.
The result was the same as before, they all fled back soon.
This time Wei Yue did not stop the poison from escaping. He stared at Yu Qing and shouted: "What's going on?"
I have watched it all the way, and I have watched it for a while, and I know that poison is the way to choose the right route. Now that the situation has changed suddenly, I naturally turned against it.
Yu Qing was not surprised at all by this. According to the records in ancient books, the poison test was invalid when he arrived at this place. He just wanted to verify the accuracy of the records. Anyway, he had caught these poisons on the way. Naturally,
I just want to give it a try.
Yu Qing: "Nothing. Let's verify it and see if any road leads to the end."
Wei Yue warned: "It's better not to play any tricks?"
Yu Qing sighed: "How dare I play any tricks? By the way, the end of these roads is the lair where the Toad King is hiding. Gang Wei, please be careful."
Hearing that the destination was ahead, Wei Yue became energetic and alert. He waved his hand and said, "Then lead the way quickly."
Yu Qing refused directly and said: "Then what is the strength of the Toad King? We don't know anything about it." He stopped saying ugly words and waved his hand to show weakness, indicating that the Scorpion Gang was not strong enough, and signaled to the stronger Zhenshan Gang to clear the way.
Wei Yue scolded: "What nonsense, City Lord Nie can't possibly make a test that everyone can't complete. Don't be nagging, Scorpion will lead the way."
Yu Qing really didn't know the strength of the Toad King. Now that he was being held hostage and couldn't make any extra moves, he couldn't let his side take the risk first. There would be no room for change, so he firmly objected: "That's not what I said.
Yes, it is indeed unlikely that City Lord Nie will come up with a task that everyone cannot complete, but that is only for you five major factions, and it is not necessarily possible for us, the Scorpion Gang."
Wei Yuegang wanted to say that since you dare to come, there must be a way, but Yu Qing pointed to the ten held hostage Zhenshan Gang members, "I and I will also hold hostages, in case something unexpected happens.
You must abandon the others and run away first, Gang Leader Wei doesn’t want his brothers who are unable to resist to die, right?"
After saying this, the ten members of the Zhenshan Gang who were held hostage looked at Wei Yue eagerly, and Wei Yue, who looked back with blank eyes, was speechless and choked.
Fan Jiu, Jasmine and Gao Changtai's eyes met each other, and they had to admit that although sometimes the young gang leader felt unreliable and too willful, his adaptability at critical moments was still very strong.
Duan Yunyou looked at Yu Qing with caution in his eyes. He also knew that Yu Qing knew that he knew about the Toad King's lair, but he had not revealed it to Wei Yue until now. I don't know what it meant. Did he not remember it?
Wei Yue, who was in full view of everyone, was puzzled for a while, then turned around and waved to the people behind him: "Let's go explore with a group of people."
So a team of Zhenshan Gang members came out and cautiously headed straight for the passage in the middle.
The others did not move for the time being, waiting quietly.
"ah……"
Suddenly, there was a burst of shrill screams, mixed with various cries, some from men and some from women.
The sound was sharp and penetrating, making people's hair stand on end. It frightened a group of people walking in the middle passage with glowstones in their hands to stop and look around.
The sudden chaos of fluorite light scattered human figures on the cave wall, as if countless demons and ghosts were rushing toward them. Together with the scary sounds, the scene was in panic.
A group of people from the Xingyue Gang who were on their way suddenly stopped, and Guyang raised his hand to stop them.
The walking Jin Chan gang also stopped suddenly, and Shen Jin Chan looked around cautiously in the crowd.
The Tianhong Gang, who were running fast, also stopped. Shen Wukong listened in surprise, wanting to confirm where the sound came from.
The weird sounds were heard by people deep in the tunnel, making people feel as if they were approaching hell.
Outside the blocked rocks, Gu Renshan was also frowning and listening. Even though the passage was blocked, the abnormal sound was still faintly coming from the gaps in the stones.
Outside the entrance of the Nine Cave, a member of the Zhenshan Gang suddenly shouted: "Gang Leader, this is the sound. This is the sound we heard when we came down to explore the road before."
Wei Yue immediately turned around and asked Yu Qing, "What's going on?"
Yu Qing didn't know that there was no record of this in ancient books. He subconsciously looked at Duan Yunyou and saw that the latter was also frowning in confusion. He immediately shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Wei Yue asked: "Didn't the boss lady say this?"
Yu Qing spread his hands and expressed that he really didn't know.
Wei Yue hesitated for a moment. If what he said was true, there was probably no danger. Otherwise, the proprietress would definitely tell him. He immediately waved to the people in the cave in front of him, signaling him to continue moving forward.
So that group of people could only bite the bullet and continue moving forward, facing the weird sound.
You can all hear that the sound is rolling out from those nine entrances.
Yu Qing suddenly asked, "Guild Leader Wei, what do you mean by your words just now? Have you heard this sound before when you came down to explore the road?"
Wei Yue hummed and added, "It was gone when we came down."
Yu Qing understood that this strange sound did not last all the time, but came and went. The person who wrote the note might not have heard the sound when he came down.
He suddenly turned his head and glanced at his shoulder. It seemed that due to the stimulation of the sound, the big head had crawled out, lying on his shoulder and twisting his head.
He doesn't know how to describe Datou now. Anyway, he feels that things have changed since he came out of Fairy Baihua's fairy house. He usually feels like living in seclusion. Even if he is free, he doesn't like to fly around. He is often as silent as if he is dead.
He often pretends to be a "zombie", spreading his wings, and the red light is constantly flowing in the cracks on his body. Sometimes he can maintain the same movement for several days without eating or drinking.
The biggest problem is that when it spreads its wings and freezes, the temperature of its body surface becomes higher and higher, and it can no longer be placed directly on furniture such as wooden tables.
There are very few people in the world who know about Fire Cricket, maybe none at all. He doesn’t know what’s going on. He doesn’t know who to turn to to answer his questions. I wonder if this situation will inevitably occur as Fire Cricket grows.
.
The deep light and shadow in the passage completely disappeared, but the strange sound did not stop, continuing in various horrifying tones.
Everyone waited and waited. After waiting for a long time, they suddenly saw a light appearing in another passage, making everyone feel as if they were facing a powerful enemy.
However, when the light came closer, everyone discovered that it was the Zhenshan Gang investigators who had entered through the middle road before. The latter was obviously a little surprised to see them and quickly came over to meet again.
Wei Yue asked: "What's the situation? Have you seen the Toad King?"
The leader shook his head and said, "No. There is a huge space at the end. We searched it and found no Toad King. We saw several other paths, so we continued searching along one path. Unexpectedly, we wandered out. It seemed that there were several
The paths are indeed connected."
Wei Yue immediately turned around and asked Yu Qing, "What's going on?"
Yu Qing was also a little confused and asked the leader, "Are you sure there is no Toad King in there?"
"No." The team leader was sure and asked, "Do you think it makes sense to hide it when we find out?"
