At this time, in a dark cave, a group of people were walking slowly in the long and narrow tunnel. Only a dim night pearl illuminated the passage at each distance, coupled with the dripping water coming from nowhere.
The sound, combined with the friction sound as they walked, made it look even more eerie.
The passage is very large, and there is not just one road. It is a complicated route. If you have never been there, you will definitely get lost easily.
Among them, a young woman took the lead and walked in the front, but her face was still a little timid. She was followed by six people, looking at the side with wary expressions.
But the others were behind and couldn't see her expression at all.
They were Shuang'er and his party who had just arrived here. When they came all the way here, their speed was relatively slow. In addition, it was some distance away from Fengcheng, and the sky was already getting dark. In a dilapidated
The entrance to this cave is found in the temple.
"Why is it so quiet here? Didn't you say there are a lot of people here?" Shuang'er in front was also a little scared when he saw the surrounding scene, but he did not show it.
"I don't know. There were many people there before. Could it be that we are already late?" Fifth Sister, who was leaning behind him, said in a low voice.
"How about I go to the front and take a look first? There doesn't seem to be anything next to it, and we don't know exactly what it is. I heard that it seems to be storing some sundries and the like, and the location Wu Mei mentioned is the back location where they are resting outside.
." The boss who was next to the fifth sister said at this time.
"Okay, let's go directly." After a long time, they hesitated to be careful and walked half the distance. After hearing this, Shuang'er gave the order without hesitation.
Even though she felt a little twisted in her heart, after all, she had always followed other people's orders before, and now she was asked to lead a team of people. In fact, she had always been a little uneasy in her heart.
However, she couldn't show it on her face. She had a normal Gu Zheng look, and tried her best to have a faint smile on her face. Although it was a little stiff, it also gave her an inexplicable confidence, as if Gu Zheng was by his side.
As they slowly advanced, a painful low groan suddenly sounded in the air.
"There's someone!" Shuang'er whispered subconsciously, and at the same time, her figure began to accelerate suddenly. She broke away from the team in an instant and ran towards the front.
Because she could clearly hear the sound of some kind of pain, she instantly forgot that she was leading several members and rushed over.
Seeing Shuang'er disappear in front of them in an instant, the boss was stunned, but without saying anything, he quickly led a few of them and followed along the path.
When they got there, they found that the two people were lying on the ground, twisting and turning, and their clothes were half torn, exposing the red skin.
The faces of the two people were also extremely red, like ripe apples. Little bits of heat evaporated from each other's bodies, as if they were being evaporated by flames, and they looked very uncomfortable.
And here Shuang'er has already taken out a relatively large box, which is filled with bottles and cans, all of which she usually figures out and refines by herself.
She usually carries two different medicine kits, one is specially designed for ordinary people's injuries, which can also be used to treat some low-level warriors, and the other is specially designed for her to treat injuries of people with higher cultivation levels. These medicines themselves
Of course, some of the things I figured out were the medicinal materials given by Mr. Qi, and the other part came from Gu Zheng.
Not only that, she also created new treatment methods by herself based on her previous medical knowledge and some of the simple healing methods of immortals.
Of course, everything must be thanked to the deceased Mr. Qi, because he did not give Shuang'er other training, but he collected a lot of knowledge in this field for her.
Shuang'er quickly took out a blue jade bottle from it, and carefully dripped a drop of blue water from it. The water droplet stayed between them, and layers of ice breath came out from it.
The temperature in the air began to drop sharply, causing the six friends of Qingcheng who had just arrived to shiver suddenly. They couldn't help but take a few steps back, and then they felt a little better.
But the two people below seemed to feel much more comfortable, even their moans were much softer, and their bodies unconsciously leaned towards the middle.
"They were hit by a blood curse. It seems that it just happened for a while. If we had come later, I'm afraid you also know what happened to the two of them." Shuang'er said quickly, and at the same time, he kept moving his hands.
A layer of unknown powder was lightly sprinkled on their bodies.
"Blood curse!" They suddenly remembered the restrictions on their bodies. They looked at the two people in front of them who had met each other. They looked miserable just now. Now they also had many blood marks on their bodies, which were scratched out just now. Their hearts surged.
Fortunately, if they hadn't happened to meet Mr. Gu, their fate would have been doomed.
"Well, but I can't relieve them. It would be better if there is no attack. Now I can only suppress it for the time being. If everything goes well, I should be able to take them back and let Mr. Gu treat them. If they are here, then I will be helpless.
." A strong white light emerged from Shuang'er's hand, covering the two people's figures.
After half a cup of tea, a trace of sweat appeared on Shuang'er's forehead, and then she put away the white light in her hand.
Looking at the two people, there is only a faint red color on their skin now, and their breathing is much easier. They are many times better than before. No matter what, at least their lives are saved now.
Then Shuang'er split the drop of water into two parts using some unknown method, and put each of them in a crystal ball of a tiger, and put it around his neck. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and put away the things next to him.
"I am a doctor by profession, so whenever I encounter a situation like this, I subconsciously run here." Shuang'er then remembered that she had abandoned the six of them and explained.
"It's okay, it's okay." The boss waved his hand and looked at the brothers behind him, so he was very shocked. They had never heard of the name doctor, but they knew that this profession usually involves doctors who treat ordinary people. In their hands
They are all inferior elixirs that have been passed down, and they are extremely valuable even though they are like this.
In this way, after being under Shuang'er for such a short period of time, they can see that Shuang'er has a very gentle personality, which makes each of them feel much smoother. If this is true, their pills will not be able to be used in the future.
It will be lacking, but it can also be said to be a blessing in disguise.
If you let them go now, they won't leave, because usually even if they support you, people like this might not want them.
"I'm going to look for the entrance. That entrance is hidden. I discovered it accidentally. I went down a little and took a look and then came up in a hurry. I don't know if it was closed or not." After the air-conditioning in the air subsided, Wu Mei volunteered.
.
Now is the time for them to show their own value. If they really see Shuang'er as having a gentle personality and deliberately not doing anything, then they will be kicked out and they will cry.
After saying that, she walked around the unconscious man on the side. This was the temporary residence of the controlled people. In the middle was a slightly larger living room, and small rooms were dug out next to it. It was also here that they took on the task.
catch.
But she had just passed the fainted person on the left, and suddenly someone reached out and grabbed her ankle. She was a little nervous when she came in, for fear of attracting other people's attention. The strength of the copper-faced man made them all despair.
If they hadn't known that Shuang'er's cultivation level was also that of an immortal, they would have persuaded Shuang'er to go back.
"ah!"
Suddenly a big fiery hand grabbed him, and she felt so unexpected that she couldn't help but scream, subconsciously jumped forward, and broke away from his hand.
"do not go!"
A weak voice sounded from this person's mouth, but everyone was not an ordinary person, so they all heard it clearly.
"Are you awake, Yuan Qing?" The boss who had dealt with him quickly walked over and supported him against the wall.
Before he could answer, the other man next to him groaned and woke up. The third and fourth children behind him immediately walked over and helped him lean against the wall.
The second child and the sixth sister were warning the surroundings in case unknown enemies appeared.
"Are you feeling better?" The boss and the others fed each other the most basic Qi Rejuvenation Pill and asked.
Both men nodded feebly, but the previous torture seemed to have drained their energy, and even their eyes were half-closed.
"Don't go to that hidden passage, because it is a trap. I'm afraid you didn't pay attention. If you go back to the original path now, you won't be able to get out." Yuan Qing took a breath and said in a weak voice.
"How could this happen?" The boss said in surprise, and at the same time motioned to the fourth and second children to go and take a look at the original road.
"Ahem, not long ago, a new copper-faced man came here. He asked the only few people to leave first, and then tortured us again before our restraint broke out. He may have known that we were destined to die.
, and that information was leaked at that time." Another person continued what he said.
"Yes, because of the failure of your mission, they thought that someone would definitely come here, so they directly set up a defense. Once you come in and find the hidden cave entrance, the entire cave will explode, and they have long since
There is another passage leaving here, and we are the abandoned bait." Yuan Qing gasped for air, as if he had just moved a little and scratched the wound.
"Only by finding another entrance can you enter the secret room below. There will be a new escape passage there."
The two of us quickly figured things out with each other.
"What kind of restriction can trap us?" Shuang'er said unconvinced. At the same time, she stood taller and stretched out her jade palm to hit the top.
The result was beyond her expectation. The moment her palms came into contact, the ordinary-looking wall flashed with a yellow light, blocking Shuang'er's blow and rebounding with a huge force.
She didn't think of this at all, and landed from above in a somewhat embarrassed manner.
"Don't waste any effort. When you came in, the defensive formation was already activated. You must know that this place is so close to Fengcheng. Why are so many experts unprepared? This is also a prison for the opponent, with extremely high concealment and defense." Yuan
Qing looked at Shuang'er and said, at this time he had some strength, much better than at the beginning.
"If you hadn't come earlier, we would probably have only one skeleton left. We'd better find a way to find the other side's backup passage." Another person, Yun Lang, said.
At this time, there were rapid footsteps outside, and the second and fourth children came back with solemn faces. Looking at everyone's questioning eyes, they nodded seriously and told everyone that what they said was true, and the entrance had been blocked.
"Okay, don't be discouraged. We have to find the passage below. Get down quickly before the other party leaves here, otherwise we will die trapped here." Shuang'er said calmly, with ancient contention in her body.
Given the protective equipment, even if everything here collapses, she is sure to protect everyone.
Perhaps because of Shuang'er's calm expression, at least the six friends of Qingcheng were not too worried. They did not understand the power of this passage and felt that Shuang'er was confident in taking them out.
As for the two people who were rescued, they smiled bitterly, but looking at everyone, a glimmer of hope arose in their hearts that they had almost completely given up. Maybe they could escape and ascend to heaven with them.
The two of them also have the strength of fifth-level immortal cultivators. Although they are in a weak state now and there are still bursts of pain in their bodies, they know that the restrictions on them have been relieved.
Following Shuang'er's order, everyone began to scatter and move around.
Yuan Qing and the others didn't know where the hidden passage was, because at the end of the day, their consciousness was blurred and they had no idea where the bronze-faced man was coming from.
"Dip, drip"
In a separate room, the surroundings were all gloomy. A figure was cuffed to the wall, his face was pale, his breathing was weak, his hands and legs were locked, and there was even a huge iron cuff inlaid around his waist.
on the wall.
On his right side, the five fingers were spread out and fixed by small iron cuffs, and drops of blood fell from the fingertips very regularly.
There is a strange groove below, which is only slightly larger than the blood drop. Whenever a blood drop falls from it, the groove below flashes red, and then the blood drop disappears without a trace.
Following several low-pitched wails in the distance, the figure raised his head and listened carefully, but as soon as the wails continued, there was no movement. There was a deathly silence, as if the whole world had left him.
It took a long time before a low sound came to my ears.
However, the silence was soon broken, and the sound of footsteps sounded from a distance, walking towards the scene.
After walking a few steps, a low humming sound would be emitted, and sometimes a scream would be emitted, and then it would return to silence.
It didn't take long for the footsteps to arrive here quickly.
"Zhao Man, it seems you still won't submit to us."
Zhao Man, who lowered his head, raised his head again, looked at the strange man and the familiar mask, sighed, and spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, but was dodged by the bronze-masked man.
"If you want to persuade me to surrender, stop dreaming."
The copper-faced man didn't take it seriously and looked at the opposite wall, a cage made of black mist, with a spear wrapped in it, and traces of black mist entangled it every moment.
The original color of the spear was almost invisible, and it only occasionally flashed a blue light to show that it was still not blackened.
"That's a pity. Your fiancée Xue'er has been caught by us, but don't be sad. You will be reunited sooner or later." The copper-faced man chuckled.
"You" Zhao Man was furious, but there was nothing he could do. He was like this, and he couldn't save himself, let alone Xue'er.
"Master Gu will take revenge on us, just wait." Zhao Man uttered these words coldly, and could only comfort himself in this way.
"Haha, don't worry, no matter how powerful he is, as soon as the Great Elder comes out of seclusion, he will crush all the stones blocking the road, and then you will be reunited underground." Tongmian smiled contemptuously.
"It seems a bit of a pity. Your weapons can't be demonized yet. I originally wanted to leave you with a whole body, but now I have to sacrifice you to blood. In this way, your weapons will be completely owned by us." Copper Face.
He laughed, and as soon as he finished speaking, a long sword suddenly appeared in his hand.
In this dim illusion, there is still a cold light, there are still blood stains on it that have not been wiped clean, and a strong smell of blood emanates from it.
The long sword was raised and stabbed towards Zhao Man's belly. The bronze-faced man was ready to drain Zhao Man's blood and then complete the sacrifice of the spear. When the time came, he took the spear and walked away, completing the task successfully.
Thinking that Mr. Xi will receive this gift and his status will be slightly improved, he feels hot in his heart. Now that this place is under the control of Mr. Xi, this gift of mine will definitely impress Mr. Xi.
If it weren't for this spear, Zhao Man should have been executed long ago based on what he had done before. Now he is using his blood to remove the traces of him in the spear little by little, and then it will become an ownerless weapon.
things.
Zhao Man watched the sharp blade coming and closed his eyes in despair. He was not afraid of death, but mainly worried about Xue'er's comfort. Even though he now knew that the other person was transformed into a fox demon, he still loved him.
"farewell!"
But at this moment, an angry voice came from the darkness in the distance.
"stop!"
At the same time, a cold light rushed from the darkness and quickly hit the copper-faced man's head. If he insisted on continuing the assassination, Zhao Man would be dead, and his own head would inevitably blossom.
In the face of his own life, Tongmian certainly knew how to choose. Even if his sword could penetrate Zhao Man's abdomen in the next second, he still had to withdraw it now.
"ding dong"
He knocked down the weapon that hit his head. When he took a closer look, he saw that it was a short dagger, but the force attached to it was quite strong, and he almost took a step back.
He raised his sword and looked at it intently. There were figures in the distance, and a group of people were approaching quickly.
Zhao Man, who was waiting for death on the side, also opened his eyes in surprise, wondering why someone would save him.
As the group of people approached, Zhao Man's eyes widened when he saw the leader.
