Second area
Under Wuwei's obstruction, the narrow terrain caused heavy losses to the Spirit Clan and the Ghost Sect. Many disciples died tragically under Wuwei's broad-bladed sword.
With the reinforcements of Qiliang and Lu Yu, they barely managed to repel Wuwei and came to an underground room built of gravel.
The room is divided into two floors, and the interior space is very spacious. There are three sand doors on the lower floor and three sand doors on the upper floor.
Outside the two sand gates on the outside, there are two sand steps that go up step by step, leading to the sand gate on the second floor.
There was a knife mark on Qilong's face, his eyes looked at the silent surroundings, and he said warily: "Qiliang, Lu Yu, let's go over and take a look. Don't let that guy Wuwei escape."
Wuwei killed dozens of disciples of the Gui Sect and then escaped under his nose. Naturally, he couldn't swallow this breath.
However, when they opened the six sand gates, they found that each of the four sand gates on both sides had a tunnel leading elsewhere. The two sand gates in the middle contained large and small square boxes, as well as spiritual source stones all over the ground. Holy Source Stone.
Qiliang pointed to the footprints in a tunnel and said, "Qilong, come and see, that guy Wuwei must have walked through this tunnel."
Qi Long squatted down, looked at the dark tunnel, and said cautiously: "This tunnel is only wide enough for four or five people to walk at the same time. If we chase him, we will probably suffer a loss."
Wuwei's terrain advantage made them suffer a lot. If they continued to fight him in such a narrow place, they would inevitably be hit hard by him again.
Qiliang took out the folding fan from the jade belt and said carefully: "I think we should not provoke him yet. After all, we are not familiar with this place yet, and he knows everything here well. If we are ambushed by him, We will lose more."
After weighing the pros and cons, Qi Long nodded slowly. He did not want to lose more lives just for the sake of anger.
Lu Yudao: "I don't know where these four tunnels lead. Should we go separately?"
Just as the three of them were standing on the sand path on the second floor to discuss, Jia Juesheng walked up. After walking around for a while, he walked down the sand steps and shouted to the two sect disciples: "Come on, come on, come on. . The things in the lower level Samana belong to the spiritual clan, and the things in the upper level Samana belong to the ghost clan. Do you have any objections?"
As soon as he said these words, the disciples of the two sects were completely excited. The disciples of the spirit clan rushed to the sand gate in the middle. The sand steps on both sides were filled with disciples of the ghost sect. Since Qilong was standing on it, they could not So nice to go get something.
Jia Juesheng stood outside the sand gate on the first floor and shouted loudly: "Come, come, don't fight, don't grab, line up, line up, line up at the back."
The originally scattered Spirit Clan disciples immediately stopped crowding and lined up in an orderly manner after hearing his words.
The Spiritual Clan disciple who received the Holy Origin Stone bowed and thanked: "Thank you, Senior Brother Jia, thank you, Senior Brother Jia."
Jia Juesheng said with a smile: "There is nothing to thank. These are the results of your hard work. Come on, next."
The Ghost Sect disciples on the sand steps looked eagerly at the satisfied smiles of the Spirit Clan disciples, with a hint of envy.
When Qilong saw this scene, he immediately said to Qi Liang: "Qi Liang, in this case, you should share the contents with everyone."
Hearing Qilong's words, the disciples of the Ghost Sect felt happy. Fei Xiaoyuan, who was standing on the first floor, raised his arms and shouted to Qilong: "I'm coming! I'm coming! I'm going to give them the things."
Qi Long looked at Fei Xiaoyuan and nodded with a smile, then moved his gaze to Qi Liang and said: "Qi Liang, just do it. We have gone through so much and it took a lot of effort to get here, so we can't leave empty-handed. "
"Okay! Then I will share the things here with them." As soon as Qiliang finished speaking, Fei Xiaoyuan, who was standing on the first floor, came to his side.
Jia Juesheng was busy for a long time and said: "Pei Yuan, Huayao, don't be idle. Come over and help me."
Before the two of them spoke, Xiao Hai, who was standing next to Hua Yao, said excitedly: "I'm going! I'm going!"
Lu Yu said with a worried look on his face: "Oh! I'm afraid that once we are separated, it will be dangerous if we meet Qiong Wenhuan and those people."
In order to minimize the loss, Qi Long thought for a while and said: "Otherwise, we will separate the injured disciples. You will take half, I will take half, and I will give you half of the ghost disciples who can fight."
Lu Yu nodded and said: "Actually, it would be beneficial to go separately. Qiliang and I will go to one tunnel, and you, Jia Juesheng and the others will go to another."
Qi Long agreed without hesitation and said: "Okay! We will set off after they finish dividing the things."
At the Ghost Gate, after a long time after the Spirit Clan people left, Xian Qingyun dressed in white came here.
He carefully checked the traces in the four tunnels and said in confusion: "Isn't that right? Could it be that the Ghost Sect and the Spiritual Clan are separated?"
Because the footprints in the three tunnels were very dense, Xian Qingyun thought that they were divided into three teams.
However, he did not choose the tunnel with more footprints, but the tunnel that Wuwei walked.
another place
Ziyang and Zhufeng also encountered six Samanas. After observing them carefully, they sat on the ground and thought about which way to take.
Zhufeng said: "Zi Yang, there are quite a lot of footprints in the two tunnels above. It's obvious that many people have walked through them. It should be very safe. Why don't we choose one of the tunnels above?"
Ziyang pointed to the tunnel beside him: "More people are not necessarily a good thing. I don't want to take other people's paths, so let's take this tunnel that no one has ever walked before."
"After all, you won't gain anything by following them."
Zhufeng nodded slowly: "That's right. Along the way we walked, all the sand gates were empty, and things were taken away by others. It's not a bad idea to take a road no one travels."
"However, it is strange to say that there are very few footsteps in the tunnel behind me, only three or four people. I wonder who they are?"
Zi Yangdao didn't pay attention and said casually: "This is easy to handle. Can't it be clear if you take out the jade tablet and do the math?"
Zhufeng shook his head and explained: "Let's forget it. This is not a big deal, so there is no need for divination. Besides, I know the answer to everything, so the meaning of my life no longer exists."
"Divination can let me know things that I can't figure out, but relying too much on this ability will make me sink deeper and deeper until I completely forget my original intention."
"What is your original intention?" Ziyang asked very curiously: "What is your original intention?"
Zhufeng smiled bitterly, then picked up the wine bottle on the ground, took a sip, and said, "Actually, the reason why I can own the divination jade tablet and become a divination prophet is to find someone."
Zi Yang was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Looking for someone? Who are you looking for? Have you found him now?"
Zhufeng said in detail: "I found it. However, I don't want to disturb him, I don't dare to see him, and I don't have the shame to see him."
"I feel that I should walk my own path. No matter how difficult it is, I have to walk on my own. Relying on the power gained by others is not what a man should do after all."
"I have hands and feet, and I can definitely live the life I want. Now that I have left, there is no need to think about going back."
Think back to the humiliation, suffering and tragic fate you suffered when you were a child. . . . . .
Zhufeng covered his face with his palms, crying like a child.
Zi Yang smiled and patted his back, comforting him: "What's wrong Zhufeng? Why are you crying?"
Zhufeng adjusted his mood, wiped away the tears that came from his eyes, and said, "It's okay, I just remembered some past events."
"Zi Yang, you said that people can share adversity, but can they enjoy happiness together?"
Zi Yang asked, "Why not?"
In his understanding, two people can even go through the most difficult times together, so how can they leave when they don't have to worry about food and clothing.
Zhufeng said word for word: "The greater the power, the greater the things you have to do. In order to achieve your own goals, you must give up something. This is an eternal truth."
Zi Yang said with firm eyes: "If things are really as you said, then I will break this truth."
Zhufeng's eyes narrowed and he murmured: "Break... Is this really possible..."
Zi Yang said seriously: "Nothing is impossible in the world. It is just a matter of time. Time can change everything."
Zhufeng nodded, looked at Ziyang quietly, and said, "Indeed. According to what you said, can that time change Miss Huayao's attitude towards me?"
"Uh... maybe... it's okay." Zi Yang didn't want to extinguish the hope in Zhu Feng's heart, so he said something worth looking forward to.
"That's great! Let's go quickly. I really want to see Miss Huayao as soon as possible and express my most sincere love to her." Zhufeng turned from sadness to joy, almost jumping with excitement.
Zi Yang sat on the sand, frowned slightly, and said slightly displeased: "Why are you like this? I treat you as a friend, but you treat me as a love rival?"
Zhufeng patiently explained: "No, Ziyang, friends are friends and love is love. You can't restrict my personal freedom, right? Didn't you just say that you don't object to my pursuit of Miss Huayao?"
"Besides, since you two have done nothing, I naturally have the opportunity to pursue you."
Zi Yang said helplessly: "Forget it, forget it. I won't advise you anymore. If you get beaten when the time comes, don't blame me for not warning you in advance."
"How could this happen? Miss Huayao is so gentle, how could she hit me?" Zhufeng then thought about it carefully and said: "Ziyang, you are clearly trying to intimidate me. We are fair competition, you Don’t play tricks.”
Zi Yang said: "Do you understand Hua Yao's character? Do you know what she likes? Do you have something in common with her?"
Zhufeng smiled and said, "Emotions can be cultivated."
Facing such a thick-skinned Zhufeng, Ziyang exhaled heavily and said, "Okay, I've said everything that needs to be said. There's nothing I can do if you don't give up."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards Shamen, Zhufeng chuckled, followed closely, and the two figures gradually disappeared into the tunnel that no one had passed.
