In the forest.
A group of people each held a torch, holding each other's remaining hands, and moved forward cautiously.
This team was part of Wang Cheng who had parted ways with Pan Meng. Even the captain Wang Cheng had left, so it was naturally hard for brothers like Xu Chao to stay.
"Sir, wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to do this?" Xu Chao finally couldn't help but ask.
Wang Cheng walked at the front and said without looking back: "I have told you before that the most important thing for a team is to be united. If the units are not united, nothing will happen."
"Shopkeeper Qian really took action against you secretly? How dare he?" Xu Chao asked again.
Wang Cheng remained silent, he could not sense wrongly, it was Qian Shan who secretly used "Hit the Cow across the Mountain" on him.
If it weren't for the inner armor inside his armor, that blow wouldn't have broken his spine.
Qian Shan's attack was too ruthless. First, it was subtle, and it was difficult for others to see that he was taking action. Second, the timing was clever. He attacked the demon at the same time as the vine demon. It was completely borrowing the vine's hand to kill him.
It can be said that this is a fatal blow for him!
"Sir, are we going to the Black Dragon Pond by ourselves?" Xu Chao was curious about where they would go next.
Wang Cheng nodded and didn't say much, which made Xu Chao, who was full of doubts, feel itchy in his heart.
It was almost noon, the most dazzling moment of the day, but the fog in the forest had not diminished at all.
The group of people walked very slowly.
Wang Cheng's telepathy has always shrouded everyone. After devouring the soul of the fox, the Soul-Eating Pearl's telekinesis power fed him back, allowing his telekinesis cultivation to be directly upgraded to the late stage of object control, so he could use his telekinesis power for a long time.
In fact, like a warrior's skill, his telekinesis power also has profound differences. The telekinesis power of someone like him in the late stage of controlling objects can only be released for half an hour at most, and he won't be able to bear it for any longer.
In the process of advancing, they still did not forget to mark along the way to remind Xuanwu and others who came in later. Of course, they could also use it when they came back.
As we were walking, suddenly, the middle section collapsed under the feet of several people, and they suddenly fell down.
Both sides were tied hand to hand with ropes. Before they realized what was happening, they were dragged down by those people.
It's like a grasshopper on a rope. If one is unlucky, no one behind can escape.
Wang Cheng was walking at the front of the team. He immediately turned around and grabbed Xu Chao's hand.
His feet were dug deeply into the soil, and his whole body exploded with great strength. His knees kept sinking, and the momentum of everyone's falling finally stopped.
However, before Wang Cheng could make the next move, his feet suddenly became empty and he fell down with everyone.
Everyone's eyes went dark at first, and it took three or four seconds before they finally landed on the ground.
The ground was wet and soft, but after falling so deep, everyone still cried out in pain.
Those who fell first were the worst. They were hit by the people above and their bones were broken. Fortunately, they were not ordinary people, otherwise they would definitely be smashed to death.
Wang Cheng was better. When he fell, he adjusted his posture in time to avoid falling like others.
The torch in his hand was still burning normally, and with the help of telepathy, he quickly got a general idea of the situation here.
This is an underground cave, very large. The location they are in now belongs to a corner, because it is connected to a passage leading to other places.
He finally understood what Qian Shan meant when a group of people disappeared out of thin air. They probably fell into this cave.
Everyone looked around with confused expressions.
Yang Si looked at the dark hole above his head, scratched his head and said: "Can this damn thing still go up?"
Wang Cheng frowned. When he fell, he roughly estimated the time. It was three or four seconds. According to the free fall displacement formula, they fell at least forty-five meters.
It was pitch black above, and the moment it fell, the earth collapsed, blocking all the exits above.
Several people tried to break through, but gave up completely after digging several times.
Every time they dig a little bit, the soil above falls a little bit. If they keep digging like this, it won't be long before all of them will be buried alive.
If you can't go up there, you can only take this passage.
Wang Cheng felt heavy in his heart and immediately ordered: "Everyone take the Baicao Pill immediately!"
The most dangerous thing underground is the oxygen problem. Except for Xu Chao and a few martial arts masters who are born with true energy in their bodies, the rest of the group are Qi and blood warriors, including Wang Cheng himself.
After being trapped underground for a long time, even a martial artist would die from lack of oxygen and suffocation, let alone a Qi-blood warrior.
The main function of Baicao Dan is to detoxify, but it contains the essence of hundreds of medicinal herbs, which can maintain the normal operation of human breath for a long time. It is the top grade of Baicao Dan.
Naturally, this elixir was not given by the Hou Mansion, but Wang Cheng used his own connections to get it from Baozhitang.
Before coming to the Valley of the Dead, he also investigated a lot of related things. The "Death Swamp" in the Valley of the Dead is shrouded in poisonous miasma all year round. Without antidote pills, there is no hope of making it out alive.
No one knows what they will encounter next in the underground cave in front of them, whether they will encounter poisonous gas or something. It is always good to take medicine in advance.
The passage is very long and rugged. Some places are high, some are low, some are so narrow that even people cannot get through, and some are spacious enough to accommodate dozens or hundreds of people.
"Damn, with my many years of experience, we may have entered the hole of some monster!"
Yang Si began to show off his high level of professionalism. As he walked, he said: "This odor is only found in foxes, not just one or two foxes!"
Wang Cheng nodded and said: "It's the fox cave!"
The moisture in the cave was very heavy, covering up part of the smell so that no one else could smell it, but how could it be hidden from his nose?
He looked solemn. In the memory of that fox, there was a nest of foxes living here, two of which were unfathomable. Their sisters did not dare to move here at all.
"Everyone, please be careful and call for help as soon as possible if you encounter any emergency!"
The environment inside the cave was complicated. After walking several hundred meters along the passage, everyone suddenly came to a huge space.
At least 100 square meters, the ground is full of messy things. You can basically find pots, pans, firewood, rice, oil, salt and other daily necessities.
"Is there anyone still living here?" Xu Chao asked, looking at the pots and pans.
Wang Cheng picked up a jade bowl with a cracked opening. It was of primitive style and looked to be at least hundreds of years old.
"Did anyone really live here?"
He also didn't understand. According to the memory of the fox's soul, the two foxes here were extremely advanced. How could they allow humans to live in their lair?
"Come here and take a look!"
At this moment, Yang Si ran to Wang Cheng and Wang Cheng with a bunch of things in his arms.
There are rouge boxes, eyebrow pencils, gold hairpins, jade combs and other cosmetic items.
"Someone really lived there!" Wang Cheng said in shock.
She still looks like a woman, but what kind of woman would live in such a dark place?
"grown ups!"
At this time, Long Tao ran over with a torch in hand, pointed in a direction, and said: "There!"
Wang Cheng followed the direction and came to a corner where a stone bed was placed.
There was a withered skeleton lying on the stone bed. The clothes he was wearing had long since disintegrated, leaving only a few fragments.
"female?"
Wang Cheng saw that this withered skeleton was clearly that of a woman, and she must be the person living here.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Wang Cheng noticed the skeletal palms. The palms were stacked up and down. The lower palm was in a clenched posture, holding something in its hand.
He said "I'm offended", then opened his palm, revealing a jade pendant.
Yang Si had sharp eyes and subconsciously wanted to grab it, but as soon as he got closer, his whole body suddenly spasmed and twitched, as if he had been hit by high-voltage electricity.
He didn't stop twitching until Wang Cheng took his hand away, and then hid behind Wang Cheng with a "swish".
"What the hell is this? How evil is it? I almost died from it!"
He was like a mouse seeing a cat, staying far away and not daring to get closer.
Wang Cheng smiled and cursed: "You deserve it!"
This bastard is stubborn and dares to touch anything, even magic weapons.
The jade pendant is in the shape of a token, with a statue of a god engraved on it. The statue has an eye between its eyebrows, a magic mace in one hand, and a magic formula in the other. It is Jiutian Yingyuan Thunder Universal Transformation Tianzun, the highest god of the Lei Department.
What kind of jade pendant is this? It is clearly a Taoist magic weapon - the edict!
Moreover, it is the most powerful and powerful talisman that specializes in killing demons and monsters. It is many levels higher than the four small flying swords in Wang Cheng's hand!
Fortunately, his master had been dead for a long time, otherwise Yang Si would have turned into ashes just now.
After listening to Wang Cheng's explanation, Yang Si said with lingering fear: "This female corpse is really not a fucking thing. She still wants to harm people after she dies!"
Wang Cheng frowned and said nothing. It was rare for a dead person to have a magic weapon on him, and it was still the command talisman of Zhi Gang Zhi Yang.
Because after death, the soul will leave the body and become an existence similar to a ghost, and it is most afraid of encountering magic weapons. With the power of the magical weapon, the soul can be easily shattered. If the soul is broken, the deceased will never be reincarnated.
Unless they are vicious or evil corpses, the purpose of placing magic weapons on their bodies is to suppress the evil thoughts in their bodies to prevent them from turning into evil spirits.
This person held the command talisman in her hand. It was obvious that someone else had not put it there, but she took it on her own initiative.
"What on earth has she gone through that she would rather lose her soul than re-enter reincarnation?"
Wang Cheng looked at the bones and felt sad.
He wanted to read a passage from "The Sutra of Savior" to her, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he closed it again.
This person had been dead for who knows how many years, and had an imperial talisman placed on her body. Her soul had long since disappeared. No matter how many sutras he recited, he could not save her.
He sighed softly and took the command talisman in his hand.
Yang Si, who was hiding behind, saw that nothing happened to him and said as if he was a ghost: "Damn it! Why are you nothing?"
Wang Cheng smiled and said: "Thanks to you for blocking the blow just now, otherwise how could I have easily obtained this talisman?"
When Yang Si heard this, his lungs were about to burst with anger, and he said: "No! I took this talisman first, it belongs to me!"
Wang Cheng raised the command talisman in his hand and said, "I dare to give it to you, but do you dare to take it?"
As he said this, he was about to hand it to Yang Si. Yang Si was so frightened that he hid far away and did not dare to pick it up.
Wang Cheng shook his head and looked at the command talisman in his hand, feeling extremely heavy.
