Gu Zheng directly soaked in the water, constantly recovering his physical strength, and only then walked towards the back.
While he was resting, he had already observed his surroundings. Everything around him was surrounded by mountain walls, and there was no way out at all. However, behind the waterfall, he vaguely noticed something different.
However, this location was a little too far away from there and could not be seen clearly, so Gu Zheng walked towards it when he felt it was about the same.
Walking in from under the rushing water, he found a small groove in the back, and a wooden door was firmly embedded in the mountain wall. However, what surprised Gu Zheng was that facing him, there was a
The wooden latch seems to prevent the contents from coming out.
Wading in the stream, Gu Zheng walked forward with a little effort, and soon came to the wooden door. After twisting the latch, he pushed it open, revealing the long and narrow passage inside, filled with candles.
It had been lit inside for a long time, reflecting on the water that was submerged into the thigh. The light reflected the surroundings, making the entire passage neither dark nor dangerous.
In the distance, there is also a wooden door.
As he moved forward, Gu Zheng thought, if his prediction was correct, these candlelights were also made by the black cat. They seemed to help them in key places of the other party. Otherwise, it would be even more difficult for them to move forward.
OK.
And the power here is obviously much stronger than that over there. At least the other side has to light up one by one, while here it is fully lit, and it can even give the underground to itself, although it was discovered by the other party in the end.
Its purpose is for people like them to come to help it, but who are the people who are hostile to it and why it wants to capture so many demon souls? Gu Zheng has never been able to figure this out.
Because the information in hand is too little, it seems that we can only talk about it above. If the other party can really help me, then there is no harm in helping the other party. Although in fact, these candlelights, the remaining props, and resting points,
It has helped him a lot.
Even if Gu Zheng is not willing, he still owes the other party some favors, and Gu Zheng is actually very willing.
After opening three more doors in succession and walking through the long passage, Gu Zheng realized that he had unknowingly arrived at a spacious cave, but he was still in shallow water.
What catches the eye is the boulder in the middle, which is slightly above the water. The golden key is on it, which is very conspicuous. In addition, there is a white and red crystal stone next to it, which looks like it was given to Gu Zheng.
The same supplements.
And at the very end, there is also a gleaming golden door, just like the one that first came in.
"It turns out that all the benefits are here. If I had taken the pill and strengthened myself, it wouldn't have been so strenuous to cross the torrent." Gu Zheng looked in front of him and thought with some satisfaction.
While thinking about it, he walked towards the middle. He didn't know what was in the door next to it. He felt that there should be other paths, maybe from other places leading here.
Soon Gu Zheng came to the boulder. As long as he stretched out his hand, he could easily put away the things on it.
And he had already done so, reaching out to touch the golden key, but he suddenly stopped halfway and said to himself.
"Let me see where the door leads first, or there are some good things inside."
Gu Zheng said this, and then retreated towards the wooden door at the back, but with the movement of his palm, there was a wave of waves leading to the other side, just like the way he walked just now, approaching that door
.
When the waves came to the wooden door, Gu Zheng also retreated here. However, what surprised Gu Zheng was that there was no movement from inside the wooden door. It seemed to be just Gu Zheng's fuss.
"Did I feel wrong? Impossible, the water waves coming over there are definitely a little weird." Gu Zheng frowned at first and carefully distinguished, but he could no longer feel the slightest touch here, and then said to himself.
Gu Zheng's figure did not move, and the waves over there also disappeared. After thinking carefully for a moment, he made a decision.
He stretched out his hand, and a black mist spread from Gu Zheng's body, finally pulling it into a straight line, and the front turned into a black palm, grabbing the key of the boulder.
The moment the key was touched, a series of black tentacle-like creatures suddenly drilled down from the seemingly ordinary stone wall above the boulder. Their length was exactly perpendicular to the water surface, and they just happened to surround the boulder.
As soon as they appeared, they continued to search for the enemy in all directions, but a wisp of black mist had already retracted in the gap between the opponents, and did not prevent the key from leaving at all.
"Click"
At the same time as the key left, the door that Gu Zheng thought was abnormal was suddenly smashed directly, and a meat ball jumped out from it. He saw the location of Gu Zheng at a glance, and instantly shrank into a sphere, heading towards Gu Zheng
Come rushing.
Half of his body was under the water, like a sharp sword, drawing a white line on the water, and even causing a large splash of water, rushing towards Gu Zheng.
The speed was so fast that when Gu Zhengcai got the key in his hand, the other party had already covered most of the distance.
Without saying a word, Gu Zheng just slammed the door hard and at the same time twisted the latch with quick eyes and hands.
"boom"
Just as he was doing all this, the wooden door in front of him made a loud noise, which startled Gu Zheng. Being so close, he could feel the violent aura of the other party. Then he turned around and ran behind him again.
He didn't think this door could stop him, so he ran towards the way he came from without any effort.
According to Gu Zheng's understanding of this meat ball, as long as he avoids the opponent's sight, hides in a corner under the waterfall outside, and hides under the water flow, unless the opponent happens to come to his side, he will basically be unable to sense his existence.
Even if he swayed slightly in the water, the sound of the huge water pouring was enough to cover it up.
"Dong dong"
But what Gu Zheng didn't expect was that when he ran to the second door, the wooden door that had been hit five times was forcibly broken by the opponent's huge force. In an instant, he saw himself trying to close the door again.
Then he accelerated towards this side again.
"This is too bad. It's almost time."
Gu Zheng was suddenly startled, but he did not move slowly and closed the wooden door again and ran towards the back.
At this moment, the moment Meat Ball came in, the brightness of the candle next to it suddenly increased, like small suns. A large piece of golden light emerged from the candlelight and entered Meat Ball's body, causing the body to glow with a faint glow.
The black smoke seemed to be forcibly expelling the opponent.
But Meatball didn't seem to care at all, and rushed to the wooden door again. First, he hit hard with his body. Although he backed up again and rushed again, it was the same as last time. After five times, the wooden door shattered, revealing the other side that had just run to him.
The ancient struggle on the side accelerated and rushed forward again.
Gu Zheng also noticed the strangeness of the candlelight, and he understood that by leading the other party into the passage, he would be able to stop halfway with comfort as long as he took some time.
However, my speed is too slow and my strength is a little lower, which have two completely different consequences.
Gu Zheng ran back here, but his movements in the water were not as flexible as on land, which not only consumed his incompletely recovered physical strength, but also slowed down Gu Zheng's speed.
Looking at the meat ball chasing after him again, Gu Zheng calmed down. At least he had a way, but it was a bit dangerous, but other than that, there was no other way.
When it came to the last door, Gu Zheng didn't close it at all, allowing Meiqiu, who was already sprinting halfway, to use his speed without any hindrance.
On Gu Zheng's side, the water flowing down from the sky jumped in depth, flying over the wall and moving quickly ahead. In the blink of an eye, it landed in front of the water that continued below.
However, Gu Zheng did not stop. He jumped forward again and jumped down as if committing suicide. Just as his figure fell, a galloping figure rushed out from his position, following Gu Zheng.
Jump down.
However, as soon as the meat ball jumped down, he saw Gu Zheng hanging below. Although his figure was constantly shaking due to the impact of the water flow, and it seemed that he could fall at any time, a black thread in his hand was firmly attached to it.
He caught him, and this black thread was already firmly connected to the wall that Gu Zheng had just walked through.
Meatball wanted to stop and continue to pursue, but the huge impact, coupled with the extremely smooth slope, caused him to skid directly into the endless void below, and he was either dead or dead.
Here Gu Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief and pulled himself up again by pulling the black thread.
"Huhu"
His body relaxed slightly, and he held his knees with both hands to support himself. Gu Zheng gasped for air, and big beads of sweat fell from his forehead. He was just a little bit away from being hit by the opponent. The result is self-evident.
Metaphor.
"Fortunately, there is a good dragon, otherwise it would be miserable."
After taking a breath for a moment, Gu Zheng finally thought about it, but then he smiled bitterly. Without Shanlong, he would have swallowed the pill directly. At that time, he had no choice, and in fact, he was about to swallow it.
In that case, if my strength is one level higher, I'm afraid I won't be so dangerous.
But it was all worth it. Compared with the risk of his position, he would rather not take the elixir. Besides, with the help of Shanlong, everything was not a near miss.
Gu Zheng could only comfort himself in this way, and then moved forward again.
When they arrived at the cave, the tentacles hanging upside down had disappeared, and the door that was next to it had also disappeared. That location was now a stone wall, as if everything was an illusion just now.
This time Gu Zheng unceremoniously took away the boulder's belongings. There was no way the other party would have an ambush. Even if there was one, it would be completely eliminated by the candlelight. After all, the black cat's power here seemed pretty good.
After picking up the key and successfully opening the door, Gu Zheng didn't bother to study whether the golden door would be locked again, and walked directly inside.
The farther inside, the terrain felt higher and higher. By the time Gu Zheng completely emerged from the water, he had already reached the end.
There are no rooms or ways to other directions. There is only a red table leaning against the wall, and there is only a round mirror on it, just like the bronze mirror used by ladies to dress up. At this time
It was glowing with a faint golden light.
After Gu Zheng observed for a while, he determined that the mirror should have teleported him away. However, he was not in a hurry. After resting nearby for a long time, he completely recovered his strength and then stepped forward to touch the bronze mirror.
As soon as he touched it, a strong golden light suddenly emerged from it, causing Gu Zheng to squint his eyes and see nothing except the golden light.
However, this golden light came and went quickly. In just a few breaths, the golden light in his eyes had completely dissipated, but he found that he had escaped from below and came to another place.
There is still the red table in front of him, with the dim bronze mirror placed on it, which has completely lost its effectiveness. Apart from that, there is nothing else. However, it is like a corridor next to it, and you can see the scenery in the distance.
.
There is also a similarly turbulent waterfall on the side, falling directly on the ground below. It looks like a pool, occupying a huge area below, and not far from the water's edge is a group of buildings, which continues towards the inside.
Don't know how big it is.
At a glance, Gu Zheng saw two women dressed as maids, walking side by side along the gorgeous corridor.
But the other party was not a demon at all. The two of them glowed red at the same time, looking more like patrolling ghosts.
"What the hell is this?" Gu Zheng said with a headache as he watched the other party turn into the corridor.
This place looks very much like a place where noble people rest, but it's not certain whether anyone lives there now. Even if there is, it's probably a ghost.
But no matter what, Guzheng still has to move forward, and it seems that he is going to cross it.
Opening the wooden door in front of him, a straight corridor appeared in front of Gu Zheng. He also slowed down and walked forward, stepping on this obviously precious wooden board. The sound was almost absorbed, and no sound came out at all.
Just when he was halfway there, he noticed a staircase next to him, climbing up from below. When he looked down, he could hardly see the bottom. It seemed that he had saved a lot of effort.
Gu Zheng didn't stay much, and soon came to the place where the two maids had walked before. After hearing no sound, he walked inside.
...
"What, not here? Where did it go?"
On a high peak, Xiaoying looked at the girl in front of her with some disappointment and said with some disappointment.
"I don't know either. It's been a long time since the young master left. After careful calculation, it's been tens of thousands of years, and I haven't received any messages during that time." A woman with a solemn face handed over the tea she had just brewed.
Invite the other person to taste it.
"Thank you. I still have something to do, so I won't stay any longer. Thank you for your hospitality, I'll leave first." The smaller figure bowed to the other person Yingying and said goodbye.
"Princess Xiangxiang, you'd better go to Kirishima over there and have a look. Someone from the other party came to inquire some time ago. It seems that they have been with their people some time ago." The woman also stood up and said to her.
"Thank you, I'll go right away." Xiangxiang said again, and then left the room and quickly left down below. After reaching the mountainside, they took off together and flew towards the distance.
"Sect Master, there is news from over there. Do you think we are ready to move out of here?"
The woman looked at the other person's figure until it disappeared into the horizon, and then she spoke calmly.
"Of course, time flies so fast. Since the other party has other ideas, and all the remaining demon clan here have been completely wiped out, we still leave. This place still cannot develop, so I will leave this place to you."
"I obey the order of the sect master. The name of our Daxue Mountain must not be insulted." The female disciple behind her said with some fanaticism.
"Have you found the other party?" As soon as Xiangxiang left the mountains, a figure appeared in the sky and said to him.
"The other party is not here. I want to go to Kirishima once." Xiang Xiangyao looked at Yuan Bian and said firmly.
"You are crazy. They are looking for you over there. If you are caught and caught again, I will not be able to take you out, and the other person may have left." Heishen looked at you as if you were crazy.
Fragrant.
"I always want the other party to know what I'm going to do, just in case the other party has a way." Xiangxiang couldn't listen at all, and as she spoke, she flew away again.
"What a headache."
She muttered deeply and followed him, quickly disappearing into the horizon. However, no matter what, she had to make sure that the other party could not go back again.
...
"Thank you very much. If it weren't for your help, we might have been completely wiped out."
On a battlefield that had ended, Mrs. Xue held a cute baby boy in her arms and said to Pan Xuan who was standing aside.
"It doesn't matter, this is the other party's initiative to provoke me, although I don't want to take this trouble." Pan Xuan looked at the other party and said directly without hiding her thoughts.
"Haha, no matter what, you still saved us. My name is Xue Feiyao. You seem to have wandered here from outside. Why don't you sit down with us first and let me thank you? What do you think?" Xue Feiyao here.
Feiyao looked a little embarrassed, laughed, and then said to the other party.
"Okay, I just left not long ago, and I happen to have nowhere to go, so I'll excuse you." She smiled slightly and said immediately without much hesitation. She just happened to see where this place was and inquire about Gu Zheng's information.
The aura on Pan Xuan's body was the same as that of the other party. The moment she woke up, she knew where she had landed. She originally wanted to search around by herself, but the other party's invitation made her change her mind. After all, this place is
When I chatted with Zhu Hun and Gu Yi above, I also got a rough understanding of them, and also learned how to conceal my identity from Zhu Hun.
In addition, the Shura themselves belong to the dark system, so the other party didn't find anything suspicious at all, and they really thought she was a wandering demon soul.
"That's great. Let's pack up a moment and set off immediately. Our Cheng family definitely owes you a big favor." Mrs. Xue said sincerely with a smile in her eyes.
Pan Xuan nodded, looked around without saying anything.
In fact, the demon snake was not killed by them because she kept her hand. The man was worried about Mrs. Xue's safety and did not stay away at all, so he asked the other party to leave with a considerable number of his men.
However, in this short battle, half of their side suffered casualties, and a similar number of people on the opposite side also died.
The people who quickly finished packing up set off again towards their intended destination.
