Southern Xinjiang, one hundred thousand mountains.
The icy cold wind gradually made people feel the chill. The low black clouds in the sky and the gradually obvious deep cave showed that the legendary devil's cave was getting closer. Lu Xueqi and the others stood ten feet away from the Zhenmo Ancient Cave.
Far away, looking toward the cave.
In the distance, a stone statue facing the depths of the cave with its back to them stood alone at the entrance of the Zhenmo Ancient Cave. Apart from that, there was nothing else.
Li Xun looked at the cave and seemed a little nervous for no reason, and whispered: 'This is it.'
The howling wind seemed to suddenly rise in pitch, which made people startled. Lu Xueqi, Zeng Shushu, Li Xun and others had profound moral principles, so naturally they were not afraid of the evil energy contained in this wind, and the dozen or so people who followed them came
The disciples of Fenxiang Valley are all top-notch masters, and they don't look too uncomfortable.
Zeng Shushu turned around and said: 'The evil spirit here is indeed very strong, but we have been observing for a long time, but there is no evil beast coming out, which is a bit strange.'
Lu Xueqi nodded, but her cold expression did not change at all, and said calmly: "Since we are here, let's go there. If there are any monsters, we can deal with them as soon as possible." After that, without waiting for Li Xun and others' answers.
, and walked straight forward.
Li Xun and Zeng Shushu looked at each other, and Zeng Shushu laughed dryly, shrugged his shoulders, and followed. Li Xun looked at the slim figure from behind, and suddenly sighed secretly. For him, he really didn't know that figure was in his dream.
We have appeared together so many times, but when we really have the chance to be together, they seem to be farther away.
He was silent for a moment, waved his hand, greeted the junior brothers behind him, and followed him.
In the distance, near the mysterious stone statue at the entrance of the Zhenmo Ancient Cave, a black shadow suddenly flashed past and flashed into the cave. It was Kuroki's figure.
Almost as soon as Heimu's figure flashed to the entrance of the cave, there was a low roar from the depths of the cave. It was the voice of the evil black tiger. Then the illusory smoke in the air began to condense, and it seemed that the evil spirit was about to appear again.
At this moment, Heimu, who was hiding in black clothes, suddenly said quickly: 'Brother, don't come out yet, listen to me.'
The evil spirit Black Tiger's voice sneered, but the white smoke was still gathering. Apparently he didn't listen to Heimu's words and said: 'Beast, do you still dare to come back?'
Kuroki stood in the shadows in a corner of the cave and said: 'After you show up, you will inevitably disturb these people who come over. There is an endless stream of people coming to the Demon Suppressing Ancient Cave today. Don't you know why?'
The illusory white smoke suddenly suffocated in mid-air. It did not continue to increase, but it also had no intention of dissipating.
After a moment, Black Tiger's voice said coldly: 'What do you mean?'
Heimu said coldly: "They came here to deal with the people in this cave. Anyway, isn't this exactly what you want? What's more, you have already let people in earlier, so why not let more people in now?"
If some people go in, why not?'
Outside the cave entrance, footsteps sounded in the distance, and the group of people approached this ancient and deep cave.
The white smoke suddenly dispersed, and was instantly dispersed invisible in the strong wind blowing from the depths of the cave. Almost at the same time, Kuroki's black figure also disappeared into the darkness.
The figures of Lu Xueqi, Zeng Shushu, Li Xun and others appeared in front of the entrance of the Zhenmo Ancient Cave in the next moment.
Zeng Shushu cautiously looked into the deep darkness deep in the cave and frowned. Apparently, he felt a little uneasy about this place that was so full of evil spirit yet so strange and unpredictable.
Li Xun, who was standing next to him, was somewhat similar to him. He also frowned slightly, but his expression showed some vague surprise and surprise in his eyes, and he slowly walked back and forth near the entrance of the cave.
A few steps, but everything was calm, and there was no other sound except the strong and biting wind.
This seemed to make Li Xun feel a little confused. He stared at the ancient demon-suppressing cave and remained silent, as if he was deep in thought.
Unlike these two men, after arriving outside the cave, Lu Xueqi quickly turned her attention from the deep darkness in the ancient cave to the mysterious and lonely stone statue of a woman next to her. She walked slowly
Go to the stone statue and stare at it.
The stone woman did not know how many years of wind, frost, rain, and snow she had gone through. Traces of erosion could be seen everywhere from top to bottom, but as if she was sensing something, Lu Xueqi could clearly see that the expression of the stone woman was still so lifelike.
Her face was slightly sad, with a hint of sadness, and her eyes seemed to be confused, silently staring into the depths of this mysterious ancient cave, as if she was expecting something, and seemed to be confiding in something?
But in these millions of years, who has heard her inner voice?
…
'Junior Sister Lu, Junior Sister Lu!'
Suddenly, several surprised shouts came from the side. Lu Xueqi's whole body was shocked, and she couldn't help but take a step back. She woke up from her inexplicable meditation and looked aside.
Zeng Shushu's face was a little surprised, but also a little worried, and said: 'Junior sister Lu, I have called you several times, but you don't seem to hear me?'
Lu Xueqi's face turned slightly pale, and she slowly clenched the hands hanging at her waist. However, she found that her palms were covered in cold sweat from some unknown time. She took a deep breath, calmed down, and said calmly: "It's okay."
,did you find anything?'
Zeng Shushu shook his head and said: "No, except for the strange wind gusts, there is not even a trace of a monster here." After saying that, he turned to Li Xun and said: "Senior Brother Li, you found it."
What?'
Li Xun was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said: 'It's nothing, but there is something really weird here...'
Zeng Shushu asked curiously: "Weird, what is weird?"
Li Xun was startled, and he laughed quickly and said: 'No, I thought this place was originally the lair of beast monsters, but there were no beast monsters here, so I was surprised.'
Zeng Shushu smiled and said: 'That's right, I'm feeling strange in my heart too! What do you think, Junior Sister Lu?'
Lu Xueqi did not answer immediately, her bright and clear eyes slowly flashed with light, and she glanced at Li Xun again.
Li Xun suddenly coughed for some reason, turned his head and looked at the other Fenxiang Valley disciples, and said: 'You guys come here, don't stay too far away.'
Lu Xueqi was silent for a moment, then looked back at the female stone statue and said: 'No matter what, when we come here, there is no reason to give up halfway, let's go in!'
Zeng Shushu nodded and said, 'That's right.' After saying that, he turned to Li Xun and said, 'Senior Brother Li, what do you mean?'
Li Xun was still frowning, as if he had some unexplainable thoughts on his mind at the moment, but after a moment he still said: 'Junior Sister Lu is right, let's go in!'
Zeng Shushu turned around and said: "In that case, let's go in! But this place is extraordinary after all, so it's better for us to be careful. Let me clear the way first, Junior Sister Lu, you will be in the middle to support me, Senior Brother Li, you will stay behind, and everyone else
Brother Fenxianggu is walking in the middle, okay?'
Li Xun nodded and was about to agree when suddenly Lu Xueqi said calmly from the side: 'It's so inappropriate, so let's change it!'
Zeng Shushu and Li Xun were both startled. Zeng Shushu said, 'Junior Sister Lu, what do you mean?'
Lu Xueqi pondered for a moment and said: "I will go in front, Senior Brother Zeng will walk at the end, and everyone else and Senior Brother Li will be in the middle! Senior Brother Li and you are all disciples of Fenxiang Valley. If anything happens, it would be nice to have someone to direct the conversation."
people.'
Li Xun's face changed slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but Zeng Shushu already smiled and said: 'Ah! That's right. Why didn't I think of this? Junior Sister Lu is right, so that's it.'
Li Xun frowned, but finally closed his mouth and said nothing, which was regarded as acquiescence.
Lu Xueqi looked at him, then turned to Zeng Shushu and said: 'Senior Brother Zeng, you are walking at the end and have a better view. You should have a comprehensive view of the overall situation and make plans in mind.'
Zeng Shushu smiled slightly, and suddenly turned his back to Li Xun and other Fenxiang Valley disciples from an angle that they couldn't see. He blinked at Lu Xueqi and then smiled and said: "Junior Sister Lu, don't worry, with me as your heir, you won't be afraid of any trouble."
Hahaha……'
Lu Xueqi took a deep look at Zeng Shushu, and suddenly there seemed to be a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, but then it disappeared. Even so, this moment of magnificence attracted the attention of the young disciples of Fenxiang Valley who kept looking at her secretly from a distance.
The mind was in turmoil, and some people couldn't help but sigh.
Li Xun snorted, with a stern look on his face, and the strange sound suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Lu Xueqi's expression turned cold and indifferent again, she glanced around and said, "We're in." After saying that, she ignored the others and walked away first.
Zeng Shushu turned around and smiled at Li Xun: 'Senior Brother Li, let's go too!'
Li Xun nodded, greeted the other Fenxiang Valley disciples, and followed.
When Li Xun and the others followed Lu Xueqi into the deep darkness, Zeng Shushu seemed to be unhurried and looked at the surrounding scenery for a while, as if thinking about something. After a while, he smiled mysteriously.
, slowly walked into this ancient cave.
The sound of low footsteps echoed out from the darkness, and the entrance of the Ancient Demon-Suppressing Cave fell into silence again. As the footsteps became lower and lower, became farther and farther, and finally disappeared, a sudden flash of light appeared in the darkness.
A figure passed by, and then Kuroki's figure slowly walked out of the darkness, walked slowly to the stone statue of the woman, and looked at the stone statue silently.
Behind Kuroki, illusory white smoke slowly floated and condensed, and the huge figure of the evil black tiger also appeared again.
But at this moment, the ferocious black tiger did not immediately speak evilly to Heimu. Instead, he turned back and stared into the darkness deep in the cave for a long time. He suddenly sneered and said: "These people in Middle-earth have never ceased to scheming.
When we got here, we were still fighting non-stop.'
Heimu turned around and said calmly: 'People's hearts have always been like this. Don't say it's them, it's you and me, and even the empress back then, isn't it the same way?'
'What?' The huge body of the ferocious black tiger suddenly turned around, because the speed was so fast that it made a muffled sound like a beast's roar in mid-air. When he looked at his face again, it was full of anger.
, extremely ferocious, I just heard him yell: 'What are you talking about, you dare to insult the empress, and you still do it in front of the statue of the empress?'
In front of this terrifying monster body, Kuroki's body looked extremely small, but somehow, although he couldn't see his face clearly, you could tell from his calm tone that he had no trace of anything.
There was more of a feeling of fear, but more of a feeling of deep tiredness.
'Brother, if the empress didn't have any scheming at the beginning, what do you think could have sealed that immortal monster in this ancient cave for so many years?'
The evil spirit Black Tiger was obviously suffocated, but he obviously didn't want to admit it, and shouted: 'What nonsense are you talking about? That was all from the past...'
'Okay!' Suddenly, Heimu, uncharacteristically, shouted, interrupted the evil spirit Heihu's words, and said: 'Don't always talk about the empress, the empress, respecting the empress.
The points are no less than yours.'
The huge body of the fierce black tiger froze for a moment, and a look of shock appeared on his face involuntarily. After a while, he did not get angry, but his face calmed down, and he looked at this relative from his previous life from top to bottom.
He suddenly smiled, and then said lightly: 'What's wrong with you? You never spoke to me like this before?'
Kuroki sneered as if he was mocking himself, then slowly turned his gaze back to the exquisite stone statue of the Miko Empress, and said slowly: 'Yes! I would never speak like this before, but why?
Now I will become like this? I don't know myself, who can tell me?'
The fierce black tiger said coldly: 'That's your own business. I'm not interested and don't want to know. Just tell me one thing.'
Heimu stared at the exquisite stone statue and said, 'What?'
The evil spirit Black Tiger said: 'It was you who betrayed your mother's legacy and was treasonous. You secretly helped that evildoer retrieve the five sacred weapons of the five tribes in southern Xinjiang and resurrected him. But why did you let me let him in again today?
hole, with intentions against him?'
Heimu's eyes never left the exquisite stone statue. After a while, he said in a low and painful voice: "The Queen made a mistake when she sealed the beast god. We followed the Queen and asked for the art of immortality, so we created
It was a mistake for these monsters to come out. I thought that the beast god was not guilty of this, but unexpectedly he angered the people of the world, causing this unparalleled catastrophe. I was also wrong.'
He smiled miserably, turned around suddenly, opened his arms, shouted to the sky with a shrill voice.
'Wrong!...Wrong!...Wrong!...It turns out we were all wrong...'
The cry echoed far away, and the mountains responded, but the heaven and earth were indifferent, but as if nothing had changed, they stared coldly at the mortal world.
The huge body of the ferocious black tiger stood aside. Looking at Kuromu's suddenly painful figure, he also fell silent. He didn't say a word, just stood silently behind him, with a complicated look in his eyes.
It was flickering, but there was no trace of tears.
Neither he nor Heimu, in this desolate world, have lost the right to cry for thousands of years!
Lu Xueqi, who was walking in the Ancient Demon-Suppressing Cave, suddenly seemed to feel something. She stopped and turned around to look at the road she was coming from. However, the road behind her was dark and silent. Apart from silence, there was no sound at all.
It was just that sudden throbbing that was rolling and reverberating in my heart, and it never calmed down for a long time.
Li Xun, who was not far behind her, whispered: 'Junior sister Lu, what's wrong? Did you find anything?'
In the darkness, Lu Xueqi slowly turned around and faced the front, where there was also darkness.
She was silent for a moment in the darkness, and then said quietly: 'Nothing, just keep walking!'
She took a deep breath, cheered up, and walked boldly. The darkness quietly dispersed in front of her, because from her hand, the Tianya Divine Sword gradually lit up, and the gentle light blue light enveloped her side gently.
It looks like a dream.
Behind him, countless people held their breath for a moment.
However, that beautiful figure walked resolutely towards the dark road ahead. Although she looked a bit lonely, she did not hesitate at all.
How should we go through this journey, this life?
She didn't look back.
Deep in the Zhenmo Ancient Cave.
The flame is burning quietly in the ancient brazier. If you look carefully, you will find that there is no flammable object such as firewood or lamp oil in the brazier under the firelight. The constantly burning flame seems to
It is a fire without roots.
The flames flashed in mid-air, tongues of fire swaying, illuminating the face of the beast god and reflecting the figure of the man who was gradually approaching.
Gui Li walked to the other side of the fire, and his face slowly appeared in the light. At the same time, he saw the familiar face in front of him.
The Beast God, who was still sitting on the ground and leaning on the small stone platform, smiled slightly, looked Gui Li up and down, and said, "I knew someone would come sooner or later, but I never thought you would be the first to arrive here." He paused.
, smiled and said: "Looking at your expression when you saw me just now, you didn't seem surprised. Did you already know my identity when we met before?"
Gui Li slowly shook his head. Facing this young and gentle-looking man, it was really difficult to think of him as the beast monster that had brought unprecedented catastrophe to the entire world. However, this was a fact.
'I guessed it later.' He replied calmly.
The Beast God looked at him and said gently: "Oh, I am very interested. How did you guess it? Did you guess it from my appearance, my clothes, or my various actions in the rumors?"
Where's your identity?'
"None of them." Gui said sternly.
The beast god seemed to be interested and said: 'Oh, what is that?'
Gui Li glanced at his side and said: 'That's it.'
The Beast God nodded slowly and said: 'Yes, this is the best method, you can't go wrong.'
Beside him, the evil beast Taotie roared.
The Beast God stretched out his hand. Looking from a distance, Gui Li could even see that the hand was strangely pale and did not seem like a human hand at all. The hand was as withered as the one he saw in Qilidong.
The hand seen by the wizard.
However, after a few gentle pats by the seemingly weak hand, Taotie seemed to have received some comfort. Taotie calmed down and slowly lay down on the ground. At the same time, the monkey Xiao Hui who had been staying on Gui Li's shoulder slowly
He slipped down, touched his head on the ground, and looked at Gui Li and Beast God again. It seemed that there was no strong hostility between the two people as expected.
It thought for a while, and then slowly, slowly approached Taotie. Taotie obviously noticed this, turned his head, and watched the gray-haired three-eyed monkey approaching. Soon, Xiao Hui approached Taotie.
Beside him, it grinned and spread its hands. Its tail actually lifted up and swayed behind it. Then, it slowly stretched out its hand and touched Taotie's head.
The gazes of Gui Li and Beast God were temporarily attracted to Xiao Hui, but neither of them spoke, just watching silently.
Watching Xiao Hui's movements, Gui Li suddenly felt something in his heart. Once upon a time, many years ago, when he was still the ordinary Zhang Xiaofan, on Dazhu Peak, Xiao Hui was also so close to the big yellow dog that Tian Buyi raised.
Taotie slowly straightened its body, but did not stand up immediately. It seemed a little confused to it. It turned its head and looked at its owner, the beast god. The beast god seemed to be careless and could not see anything displeased.
Expression, then it turned around again, and Xiao Hui's hand stretched out to its head.
Taotie snorted suddenly from his mouth and nose, as if to demonstrate. Xiao Hui was startled, and retracted his arm, and then found that Taotie had not made any attack movements, but was looking at him warily.
Xiao Hui chuckled, jumped on the ground twice, and suddenly jumped forward and jumped next to Taotie's body. Taotie was obviously frightened and shrank back, but the monkey Xiao Hui had already slowly touched it.
To Xiao Hui, Taotie's ferocious head seemed to be a very familiar place.
The Taotie let out a low grunt from its big mouth, as if it was complaining, but after a while, it slowly lay down lazily on the ground again, resting its head on its arm, and seemed a little drowsy.
Xiao Hui also leaned on it, chuckling from time to time, and slowly touched Taotie's head.
There seemed to be no barrier between the two spiritual beasts.
Ghost Li and the Beast God slowly withdrew their gazes from them and remained silent for a moment.
I don't know how long it took, but the beast god suddenly smiled and said: 'Actually, they are happier than us, aren't they?'
