Trapped under the dragon abyss.
Qing Lin breathed out the snake letter softly, the violence in his eyes had dissipated, and the snake eyes looked at Bai Ze like that, making the young man's heart ache.
She was still a child, and it was obvious that he was the one who should stand in front to protect her from the wind and rain, not Qing Lin. But in order to save him, Qing Lin was covered with bruises and was killed by the ghost general until he was dying.
Bai Ze was so angry that he wanted to tear the ghost general into pieces with his own hands. But there was no true energy, and the two major killing weapons, Dragon Soul and Sword Spirit, could not be mobilized. He could only watch Qing Lin suffer.
The ghosts wailed, and the ghost general and Xu Peng looked at each other from afar, with murderous intent in their eyes. But in the end, neither of them took action. The confrontation lasted for an unknown period of time. The ghost sank into the pool. Seeing it escape, the group of ghosts screamed and sank to the bottom of the pool one after another.
Xu Peng breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally made it through another night.
Qinglin's body was shrinking rapidly, turning into a small snake less than one foot, which was carefully held by Bai Ze in his hand with a gloomy look.
"Alas." Xu Peng sighed and looked at Bai Ze's back, "These evil spirits in the trapped dragon abyss are extremely difficult to deal with. Whenever night falls, they will come out in droves. We can survive tonight, but they will still be there tomorrow night. Will come again.”
"This is not the way to go." Bai Ze said in a low tone, "It's just tonight, we can't stop it. The ghost general who finally appeared should be unaffected by the Spirit Suppression Stone. No, it should be said that all ghosts They don't seem to be affected by the Spirit Suppressor Stone. But the ghost general's cultivation is equivalent to that of a powerful person in the Supreme Realm. If we come back tomorrow night, senior brother may be able to live for a few more days, and we may have to explain here tomorrow."
Xu Peng just remained silent.
Bai Ze gritted his teeth and stood up. Qing Lin was seriously injured, but for some reason, all the healing medicine on his body was gone.
For the current plan, we must leave here as soon as possible, otherwise Qing Lin is so seriously injured and if he is not treated quickly, Bai Ze will probably die under this trapped dragon abyss first.
"There is a way." Xu Peng looked at Bai Ze with strange eyes and said.
"What can be done?" Bai Ze asked him.
"Since the evil spirits are not affected by the spirit-suppressing stone, if we want to escape from here, maybe the opportunity lies with these evil spirits." Xu Peng said.
"What do you say?" Bai Ze looked at Xu Peng.
"Everywhere in life and death, there are rare treasures." Xu Peng looked gloomy, "There are many ghosts here. I think there may be something under this pool that can control these ghosts."
"Senior brother, are you talking about something similar to the Yin Tiger Talisman?" Bai Ze said solemnly.
Legend has it that seven hundred years ago there was an emperor in the Zhongzhou Dynasty named Emperor Tianzuo. Born with yin and yang eyes, he can travel freely between the world and hell.
One day while taking a nap, Emperor Tian Zuo dreamed that he had gone to hell. He was curious and wandered around in hell. As a result, he accidentally ran to the ghost king's mansion and saw a tiger charm on the table in the ghost king's study. Emperor Tian Zuo picked it up and played with it. Unexpectedly, there was a sudden movement outside the door, and the ghost king was back.
Emperor Tianzuo was so frightened that he woke up at that time.
But when Emperor Tianzuo woke up, he was even more surprised. The tiger talisman he stole in his sleep was actually held tightly in his hand when he woke up!
This is the origin of the Yinhu Talisman.
Emperor Tianzuo got the Yin Tiger Talisman and soon discovered that with this tiger talisman, he could mobilize the Yin soldiers to fight for them by air.
Emperor Tian Zuo was overjoyed and used the Yin Tiger Talisman to borrow Yin soldiers to form an army of Yin soldiers, which swept through most of Zhongzhou and established a prosperous dynasty.
But the good times did not last long. Emperor Tian Zuo was in his prime, and he should have been strong and healthy. However, he suddenly began to fall ill. He became mentally disordered and suspicious. He would call anyone he saw in horror the ghost king.
Emperor Tianzuo went crazy for three whole years. The prosperous dynasty of Zhongzhou that he had built in these three years fell apart.
Emperor Tianzuo himself was called the Mad King by later generations because he went crazy, and was eventually killed by his own son.
But the strange thing is that after the death of Emperor Tian Zuo, the whereabouts of the legendary Yin Tiger Talisman was also unknown.
Some people say that Emperor Tian Zuo suddenly woke up before his death and realized that he had committed too many sins, so he destroyed the Yin Tiger Talisman with his own hands to prevent the Yin Tiger Talisman from continuing to cause harm to the world.
Some people also say that the Yin Tiger Talisman was taken back by the Ghost King, and that Emperor Tian Zuo's madness was also related to the Ghost King.
Others say that the new emperor ascended the throne and buried the Yin Tiger Talisman in Emperor Tianzuo's tomb.
In short, there are different opinions, but the Yinhu Talisman did disappear from the world of Jiuzhou after the death of Emperor Tian Zuo seven hundred years ago.
It was as if it had never appeared.
Xu Peng nodded and said, "I'm afraid so. There is definitely something in this trapped dragon abyss."
"What are you going to do, senior brother?" Bai Ze looked at Xu Peng.
"Although I am seriously injured, my cultivation level is there after all. I have fought against the spirit-suppressing stone in the past few days and accumulated the energy of a sword." Xu Peng said, looking at Bai Ze, "The ghost will show up tomorrow night, calling The little monk attracts its attention, and I will deal with it. That ghost general is not as strong as the Supreme, and if I strike with my sword, it will probably not survive."
Bai Ze listened with a gloomy expression.
"When the time comes, you take that peach blossom branch and go into the water. The peach blossoms can restrain evil spirits and keep you safe. Go and get the things up." Xu Peng said, "Senior brother, I won't treat you badly. No matter what is in the water, you can get it." Yes, I don’t want it. When the time comes, you can use that thing to control the ghosts and let the ghosts send us up.”
"Since senior brother knows that the thing under the water may be a rare treasure like the Yin Tiger Talisman, you are not tempted at all?" Bai Ze asked, "Just give me the thing like this?"
"No." Xu Peng said, looking at Bai Ze, "You and I are both disciples of the righteous path. That thing is an evil thing. I don't want it, and you can't want it either. Otherwise, it will harm the Taoist heart at the least, and it will go wrong at the worst. Obsessed. When we get out of the Dragon Abyss, senior brother will force you to throw things back here even if you don't want to."
Bai Ze thought for a long time and felt that this was indeed the only way. He nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it!"
Kongkong in the tree heard the conversation between the two, his eyes widened in horror, and he opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, no word came out.
The two hit it off immediately. Bai Ze checked on Tang Zhizhi and saw that the girl was pale and fell into a coma, unable to wake up no matter how she screamed.
"You don't have to worry." Xu Peng said, "Your senior sister was tired of the yin energy and was just unconscious. When we get out of here, my cultivation level will recover and I can cure your senior sister with just one finger. And your... Spiritual pet, I also have the means to heal her injuries."
"So, thank you very much, senior brother." Bai Ze breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Bai Ze was afraid that the ghosts would come out again at night, so he stayed up all night.
Until dawn the next day, Bai Ze suddenly heard Tang Zhizhi snort softly. He was overjoyed, gently pushed the girl's arm, and asked: "Senior sister?"
"Bai Ze..." Tang Zhizhi opened his eyes with difficulty, and when he saw Bai Ze, he forced a smile, but his face was still frighteningly white, weak and weak.
"Senior sister, how do you feel?" Bai Ze felt happy when he saw that Tang Zhizhi was awake and asked quickly.
"Headache." Tang Zhizhi's voice was low and his expression was tired.
"Have a headache?" Bai Ze said with a smile, "It's good to have a headache. If you know it hurts, then it's okay."
"How can you be so comforting?" Tang Zhizhi smiled again, but the pain in his eyes did not ease at all.
When Tang Zhizhi woke up, Bai Ze's mood improved a lot.
The two rested for a long time. Tang Zhizhi was finally able to stand up. His steps were unsteady, but he was already hungry. He said to Bai Ze, "Junior brother, are you hungry?"
"Of course I'm hungry," Bai Ze said, "but there aren't even any worms here. I'm already planning to ask the little master to peel off two pieces of tree bark and throw them down for me to eat."
"You and Senior Brother Xu can't move. How about I go look around? The mountains at both ends of the canyon have collapsed. Maybe there are fruit trees or something that has collapsed with the mountains. Is there anything to eat?" Tang Zhizhi said.
"But..." Bai Ze hesitated.
"There is no but." Tang Zhizhi looked at Bai Ze with a straight face, "I am the senior sister and you are the junior brother. You have to listen to me, not me to listen to you. Besides, you said you want to get rid of ghosts tonight, so we still have to Try to find a way to get the little monk down. If you don’t eat something, how can you have the strength to do these things?”
"Okay then." Bai Ze had no choice but to compromise, "Sister, you must be careful. The mountains at both ends of the canyon are very unstable. They collapsed a lot last night. You must not..."
"I know, I'll be careful." Tang Zhizhi smiled, carrying the famous Sword River Picture, and walked towards the east end.
Bai Ze looked at Tang Zhizhi's leaving figure and always felt strange, but he couldn't explain why.
While he was lost in thought, Tang Zhizhi had walked away unknowingly.
Xu Peng stared at Tang Zhizhi's farther and farther back with complicated eyes.
