The vast land of China, the vast mountains, and the fertile land of the Middle Earth still seem to be a prosperous and peaceful scene at this moment, and there is no sense of the strange happenings in the remote mountains in the southwest border.
However, at this moment, two people were flying towards Huqi Mountain, where the original main hall of the Ghost King Sect was located. It was Jin Ping'er and Cangsong Taoist who secretly sneaked into Qingyun Mountain and broke the "Tianji Lock".
After they secretly destroyed the Heavenly Secret Lock on the four peaks of Qingyun Gate, they then carefully explored the surroundings of Qingyun Mountain as instructed by the Ghost King earlier. It took them a few days before they rushed back. Along the way, Cangsong Taoist was taciturn, and sometimes
It was rare to say a word all day long. Jin Ping'er more or less understood the contradictory moods of Cangsong Taoist, but I knew that she was not a soft-hearted, sympathetic and kind-hearted woman. On the contrary, although her face was still calm.
Ri Qiao smiled sweetly, but in his heart he actually looked down upon Cangsong Taoist. They came all the way back and entered the Baili realm of Huqi Mountain. After a day's journey, the two of them fell back to the ground from the sky and found a secluded valley to take a rest.
The valley is not big. Between the mountains, there is a small stream flowing down from the upper reaches, passing through the bottom of the valley, and flowing down the mountain. The water in the stream is clear. Jin Ping'er has been traveling all day and feels a little thirsty early on. When he walks to the stream
He held some water with his hands and put it in his mouth to drink.
The valley stream was cold to the touch, but very sweet in the mouth. Jin Ping'er couldn't help but take a few more sips, then he took a deep breath, turned around and said with a smile: "Taoist Master, this stream is quite good, why don't you come over and drink some?"
"
Cangsong Taoist sat on a stone next to him and shook his head. His face looked quite gloomy. In fact, he has always had this look on his face since he came back from Qingyun Mountain. Jin Ping'er looked at it and smiled secretly in his heart, but he was too lazy to go.
Having said that, he turned around, picked up the clear stream water with his hands, splashed it on his face a few times, then raised his head and shook it, and felt a coolness on his face that penetrated into his heart, which made him feel indescribably happy.
Under the sunlight, the crystal water droplets looked like pearls on her fair skin, slowly sliding down. Her chest was slightly wet with a few drops of water splashing, vaguely revealing the light and tender skin, which looked alluring and beautiful.
"Golden girl!" Suddenly Cangsong Taoist who had been silent behind him suddenly called out.
Jin Ping'er didn't expect Taoist Cangsong, who had always been like a dull gourd, to take the initiative to speak. She felt a little strange in her heart. She turned around, showed her signature charming smile, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, Taoist Master?"
Taoist Cangsong lowered his eyes slightly, not looking at Jin Ping'er's beautiful face that could confuse all living beings. He frowned slightly, as if he had a lot of worries and burdens on his heart. After hesitating for a moment, he just listened to him: "
The Ghost King Sect Master ordered us to secretly destroy the Heavenly Secret Lock of Qingyun Sect. I know the intention behind this. The Demon Sect..."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly choked up. Jin Ping'er looked at him with a smile, but there seemed to be a bit of irony in her eyes.
Cangsong Taoist was silent for a moment and whispered: "...the Holy Cult wants to dominate the world, and the Qingyun Sect is naturally the number one enemy. Breaking their heavenly secret lock is the most important thing. But I don't understand why the Ghost King Sect Master still ordered us to
After a detailed inspection of all the towns and villages within a hundred miles of Qingyun Gate, as well as the common people living there, these people are basically unarmed ordinary people. Even those who usually respect Qingyun Gate, it seems that they are not enough to require the Holy Religion to deal with them.
Are they?"
Jin Ping'er turned her charming eyes and said with a smile: "Why, does the Taoist Master have compassion in his heart and want to save all sentient beings?"
Taoist Cangsong's face darkened and he said: "I just think it's enough to deal with the Qingyun Sect. If we want to involve these innocent people, it's not necessary."
Jin Ping'er smiled and said: "Taoist Master, why are you angry? I didn't say anything." After saying that, she paused, and after pondering for a moment, she said: "To be honest, the investigation of the towns around Qingyun Mountain was indeed ordered by the Ghost King Sect Leader.
Yes, I’m not very clear about the reason, but in my opinion, with the demeanor of the Ghost King Sect Leader, he doesn’t look like a madman who slaughters people for no reason.”
Taoist Cangsong's face softened slightly and he pondered for a moment. He seemed to think that Jin Ping'er's words were reasonable, but he still seemed to have some scruples in his heart. He shook his head and said, "Having said that, I still can't figure out why we are asked to check those ordinary people."
Ordinary people, apart from their large numbers, there is nothing else special about them. Even if hundreds and thousands of these people come together, they are no match for an accomplished cultivator."
Jin Ping'er smiled and said: "We all want to know this level. The Ghost King Sect Master's heart is as deep as the sea, how can he not figure it out? So, Taoist Master, you don't have to worry about it."
Taoist Cangsong sighed softly and said: "It is because the Ghost King Sect Master's heart is as deep as the sea, I can't guess what he is thinking in his heart at all. Although it is common sense, I am just afraid that he will suddenly..." The rest of the words
, he seemed to feel a little bored himself, smiled bitterly, shook his head and stopped talking.
Jin Ping'er is naturally not the kind of person who would worry about the lives of countless people under Qingyun Mountain. However, she is somewhat dissatisfied with Taoist Cangsong's somewhat strange attitude. She still doesn't know what her future fate will be.
Why, are you still worried about other people? Could it be that these righteous guys have this temper, and they can’t change it even if they join the Demon Cult?
Jin Ping'er shrugged his shoulders, feeling baffled by such a weird thing. He turned around and walked back to the stream. He wanted to wash his face before leaving here and continuing on his way. He said lightly: "Taoist priest, don't worry.
Okay, don’t think about what to do with this..."
Before she could say the word "what", Jin Ping'er's eyes suddenly froze. The word seemed to be stuck and she could no longer say it. Even her body seemed to stiffen.
In the stream that was crystal clear just now, suddenly there was a patch of blood, which was dark red in color. It slowly rippled away with the flow of water in the stream. Jin Ping'er stared at the blood, and his face instantly became ugly. Lenovo
Just now, he drank the water here and washed his face with it. Jin Ping'er's stomach twitched and he felt like vomiting.
She stood there and watched silently for a while, then moved her eyes and looked upstream along the blood stain. Sure enough, the blood stain was slowly flowing down from the upper stream. It was like a thin red line in the stream, stretching endlessly.
Jin Ping'er snorted coldly and walked upstream along the stream.
Behind the scenes, Taoist Cangsong saw Jin Ping'er suddenly walking away. He was a little surprised and said, "Miss Jin, what's wrong with you?"
Jin Ping'er didn't answer him, and just stared at the stream. Cangsong Taoist frowned and walked over. Then his face changed slightly, and he also noticed something strange in the stream. After hesitating for a moment, he followed.
Jin Ping'er walked upstream behind him
This creek is neither deep nor big. If you walk into it, the water is no more than your knees. You can walk to the other side in three or four steps. However, the water is gurgling and winding, and it is actually quite long. The two of them walked for less than half of the valley.
Within an hour, I was about to walk out of this valley, but there was no end to the creek, and the strange blood-stained red line in the water kept extending.
Jin Ping'er and Taoist Cangsong looked at each other and frowned. Both of them were extraordinary people. Naturally, they knew that if the blood of ordinary beasts flowed in the water, it would still flow along the water, but if
Such a long distance would have been invisible in the water long ago. The blood stains in the water are still condensed, but there must be something weird about it.
Among the mountains, the wind passed through the valley, making a strange whistling sound. The forest shook and made a strange noise, adding a bit of eerieness.
Taoist Cangsong suddenly stopped. Jin Ping'er frowned, looked at him and said, "What?"
Cangsong Taoist was silent for a moment and said: "I think we should not get too troubled."
Jin Ping'er raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't expect Taoist Cangsong to say such words, and said, "Taoist Master, are you afraid?"
A trace of anger flashed across Taoist Cangsong's face, but he still endured it and said: "The important matter is the most important thing. The Ghost King Sect Leader has been ordering us to do things for some time. I think it's best to go back and report first." After saying that, he didn't
When Jin Ping'er spoke, he didn't seem to want to see Jin Ping'er's slightly sarcastic look. He turned around, but he flew up with his sword and flew towards Huqi Mountain.
Jin Ping'er looked at the flying back of Cangsong Taoist and snorted coldly, with a look of contempt in her eyes. She didn't bother to chase after him for a moment, and turned her head to look at the blood stains in the stream. Slowly, her expression changed.
Becoming a little more solemn
Suddenly, in the empty valley, a low roar came from the distance upstream of the stream. Jin Ping'er was concentrating on his thoughts. He was startled by the sudden cry and turned around quickly, only to see
There was a forest ahead. The stream turned a corner beside the forest, but the place where the cry came from was blocked by the dense forest.
Now that she's here, Jin Ping'er naturally won't ignore it. With a light leap of her body, she has quietly passed by and submerged into the dense forest. She jumped several times and jumped onto a branch at the edge of the forest, looking down.
At this sight, her expression suddenly changed.
Cangsong Taoist flew in mid-air and deliberately slowed down his speed and waited for a long time. Unexpectedly, Jin Ping'er did not catch up. Cangsong Taoist looked at the empty space behind him and couldn't help feeling a little annoyed. Jin Ping'er was usually polite to him.
During the conversation, the names were always called "the Tao is long, the Tao is short", but Taoist Cangsong was well versed in the world and had long seen the hint of disdain and ridicule hidden in Jin Ping'er's eyes.
Or maybe Jin Ping'er didn't actually mean to be sarcastic, but Taoist Cangsong thought so. It's no wonder that Taoist Cangsong, since he betrayed Qingyun and joined the Demon King's Sect, his mentality has gradually become so strangely sensitive.
After Cangsong Taoist was sulking, hesitating whether to go alone or go back to find Jin Ping'er, a light purple light lit up from behind, but Jin Ping'er flew over.
The magic weapon flashed brightly, and Jin Ping'er came to the side of Cangsong Taoist. The wind in the sky made her clothes fly. But looking at it at this moment, Jin Ping'er's face seemed to be thoughtful, without the usual full face.
smile
Seeing Taoist Cangsong waiting there, Jin Ping'er smiled at him, but the smile looked a bit forced, which was far from her usual charming look, and said: "Taoist Master, let's go."
Taoist Cangsong snorted coldly, turned around and continued to move forward with his sword, without even saying a word. Faced with this somewhat rude move, Jin Ping'er had no anger on her face. On the contrary, she followed slowly behind her, watching.
The figure of Taoist Cangsong who was speeding away in front had a complicated look in his eyes.
The valley is still a hundred miles away from Huqi Mountain, and the mountains are undulating. If an ordinary person wants to go to Huqi Mountain from here, it would take at least half a month to trek through mountains and rivers. But for Cangsong Blade and Jin Ping'er, who can control swords and fly, it is not possible.
It takes less than half a day
But when they flew close to Huqi Mountain in the past, it felt like they had been punched in the face. Even Jin Ping'er, who had been meditating, was shocked and speechless. As they slowly descended, the people in front of them
Everything gradually became clear. The once-towering Huqi Mountain had disappeared at this moment. On the ground of the huge mountain, a huge abyss suddenly appeared. Inside, the roar of the hot magma flowing could be heard from a distance, and from there,
Countless strange red blood rays emitted from the abyss, shooting into the sky, like the image of the legendary devil
The air is filled with a strong and pungent smell of blood
"What's going on? What happened?" Cangsong Taoist murmured
After falling to the ground, Cangsong Taoist looked around and saw that the area around the abyss, which was about ten miles away, was shrouded in strange and strange red light and shadow. The woods that were originally full of lush leaves were all dead at this moment, leaving only one
A withered tree trunk stood on the same spot, the situation was terrible.
