Xu Jinxiu's eyebrows showed pain.

"What are you talking about?"

I frowned and looked at Xu Jinxiu.

Her face was as pale as snow, and there was even a hint of evil between her brows.

This is definitely not caused by accident, it should be caused by some kind of injury or poison.

I put my hand on Xu Jinxiu's pulse.

"You've been bewitched."

I said calmly.

"Poison?"

Xu Jinxiu's expression changed: "You said I was poisoned?"

I nodded and stretched out my fingers to gently touch Xu Jinxiu's neck.

I am convinced that Xu Jinxiu was really poisoned.

But Xu Jinxiu really couldn't believe that she hadn't touched anything at all along the way.

How could he be poisoned for no reason?

I was also a little surprised. Could it be that grimace just now?

I turned my head to look at that ghostly face. I don’t know when, that ghostly face had turned into a complete person standing there.

A woman wearing a classical Chinese trousseau, with a pale face, a phoenix crown on her head, and a golden hairpin with tassels swaying.

There was an evil smile on the corner of his mouth, and his orifices were bleeding.

Upon seeing this, Liu Bao stuck directly behind me.

"Isn't this the body we just saw outside?"

Liu Bao exclaimed.

I turned to look at Liu Bao, who then told them what happened to them before.

When they were looking for me, they passed by a tomb chamber with a crystal coffin inside, and this woman lay inside.

I can't believe it. Could it be that this underground palace was specially built for this woman?

Just as I was thinking about it, the woman walked towards us slowly.

"If you want her to live, use the flute in exchange."

I squinted my eyes, what was this flute? Could it be the voice we heard all the time?

"Who are you?"

Xu Jinxiu's tone was cold, and she stared at the woman in front of her, as if she wanted to kill her immediately.

The woman raised her head and glanced at Xu Jinxiu: "It doesn't matter who I am, I want to live forever."

As the woman spoke, she stood upright in front of me, staring at me with her eyes.

"Then you have to tell me where that disciple is, right?"

I looked at that woman with vigilance. She was able to plant the poison in Xu Jinxiu's body unintentionally.

It can be imagined that this woman is definitely not an ordinary ghost.

"You go find them and they stay."

The woman smiled coldly and pointed at the wall behind me.

"That's the prop that leads to the center of the underground palace. If you can't come back within one day, they will all stay with me."

After the woman finished speaking, she slowly retreated to the corner.

After she walked away, Liu Baocai carefully poked his head out from behind me: "Brother Chen, what the hell is this?"

"Shh..."

I made a gesture of silence, which silenced the other people.

Xu Jinxiu looked at me with some worry. This underground palace is mysterious and unpredictable. It might be dangerous for me to go alone.

I shook my head, whispered something to Xu Jinxiu, and gave her a charm stained with my blood.

After I was done, I walked directly in the direction she pointed. There was a hidden mechanism on the wall. After I opened it carefully, a long, dark corridor appeared in front of me.

The moment the door opened, a cold breath hit him.

The surrounding lights were affected and all started to sway.

I glanced at Xu Jinxiu and the others behind me, and I seemed to have no choice now.

Under the gaze of the woman in red, she walked directly into the corridor.

My speed was very fast, but the further I walked inside, the colder feeling became stronger, and even the surrounding temperature dropped a lot.

At this moment, I suddenly stopped because I smelled a foul smell, right in front.

I held my breath and took two steps forward.

I saw a rotten man lying on the ground, with pieces of clothing scattered around him.

I looked closely and saw that those clothes were covered with all kinds of weird runes.

This guy has been dead for many days and seems to be in a state of decay.

At this time, the woman's figure floated over again.

She was standing next to the rotting corpse, looking at me.

"What do you want to do?"

I held the flashlight and looked at the woman warily, and at the same time, my eyes fell on the pile of clothes next to the corpse.

The clothes were torn, and they were torn from the back. Although the body was decomposed, the wounds could still be vaguely seen. It was caused by something taking out the internal organs directly from the back.

The clothes were densely covered with words. I took a quick look and saw that they were all spells to expel ghosts and evil spirits, but they didn't work at all on the red-clothed ghost in front of me.

"Have you seen this person? He also promised to help me get the flute before, but then he went back on his promise and he has no choice but to die here."

The woman in red said with a cold smile, she was putting a tight spell on me.

But she doesn’t have to do this. I will help her get the longevity flute back. After all, this is related to Xu Jinxiu’s safety.

I ignored him and walked forward. The woman in red looked at me with a cold smile.

I continued to walk forward, but found that my feet seemed to be stuck in the mud, and I couldn't move at all. In the end, I could only kneel on the ground.

"What the hell are you doing?"

I gritted my teeth and looked at the place where the woman was standing. There were beads of sweat on my forehead.

But when I looked back, there was no trace of that woman.

And on my legs, I don’t know when two severed hands appeared, holding my ankles tightly. No wonder I couldn’t walk.

I swallowed and threw the two severed hands directly.

What is all this?

The severed hand I looked at was exactly the same as the one taken out by the treasure hunter before.

Thinking of this, I closed my eyes directly. I knew this was my hallucination again, so I continued walking forward.

After a while, we arrived at the center of the underground palace.

And the centerpiece of this underground palace surprised me even more.

The entire underground palace is powered by water. According to the trend of the Qiankun Bagua, eight people stand in eight directions, each holding a Bagua flag in their hands.

In the center of the entire underground palace, a figure kneeling on the ground held a flute in his hands.

That must be the longevity flute that the woman in red was talking about.

I was just about to step forward to get it, but I thought of the tragic death of the man I met before.

Then there must be something terrifying in this place? Being able to take out a person's internal organs directly from the back is definitely a powerful being.

Maybe it's the kind of awesome big rice dumpling.

Thinking of this, I quickly took out the pistol.

If it is really a rice dumpling, this kind of thing must be afraid of weapons such as firearms and grenades, but I am not sure where the thing is, so I have to carefully observe the surrounding situation.

Suddenly, a burst of sound came into my ears, and I turned my head sharply.

I saw the red ghost from before.

"Why are you here again?"

The red-clothed fierce ghost glanced at me contemptuously, and then quickly rushed to the side of the eight figures.

I saw the red-clothed fierce ghost's hands turning into claws, stabbing the human pupae fiercely.

It was as if he was venting his anger because of some deep hatred.

Looking at this weird scene, I was so scared that I broke into a cold sweat.

Doesn’t that woman know that these human chrysalis are full of living people?

Even if she is evil, the human chrysalis is also a sinister creature, and it would be easy to kill her.

Just as I was about to stop her, the woman's hand was grabbed by a figurine.

Then the man's chrysalis' eyes opened, and his eyeballs turned out to be green.

I gasped, the green eyes were like a living thing, staring at the red-clothed ghost.

The red-clothed fierce ghost panicked, turned around and retreated behind me.

I was stunned on the spot, unable to believe the scene in front of me.

The woman in red who was so cruel just now and didn't take anyone seriously was actually hiding behind me and trembling.

At this time, eight figures moved slowly.

They surrounded me from all directions.

I cursed secretly in my heart, no wonder that person died tragically. I bet that all this was caused by the devil in red.

I glanced at the red-clothed Li Gui, my eyes full of helplessness. I originally thought she was very powerful. After all, judging from the various signs she had shown before, she should be one of the best.

Moreover, he is still wearing red clothes, which is considered a very dangerous thing among the people.

But looking at it now, she is just a little cabbage.

Without hesitation, I took my pistol and pulled the trigger on one of the bodies.

The human chrysalis was shot directly through and instantly turned into a pile of broken pieces.

This surprised me a little. It seemed that these eight human chrysalis were different from those outside. At least they were much easier to deal with.

Thinking this way, I became bolder and pulled the trigger on the remaining seven human chrysalises.

The pupae of those people were beaten into a sieve and turned into pieces one after another.

I breathed a sigh of relief, put away the pistol, and looked at the red-clothed ghost behind me, only to find that the woman was making faces at me.

I was speechless for a while.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps in the passage behind me. I looked back and saw a group of people wearing white clothes walking towards me.

They all carry an ever-bright lamp, which burns with a light blue flame.

I squinted my eyes and looked at the men in white walking over. I was a little confused for a moment. Could it be that these are all living people?

When he turned to look at the woman in red, she had already arrived in front of the disciple.

It was as if he was not afraid of the danger before him at all.

I cursed secretly in my heart, ran over in three steps, and took the flute directly in my hand.
