The cave that the two-eyed rat found was the place where the red fire spider lived. The secret passage here was higher than other places. It was enough for four people to walk side by side, and they could even run, jump and spin in circles.
Shen Qingxi tapped her toes and turned around in the spacious cave. She saw sparkling water coming from the depths of the cave, so she excitedly took three steps at a time and untied the luminous pearl hanging from her waist. Taking advantage of the light, he walked in first.
"Squeak!" The double-eyed rat gave a warning cry, and its legs ran very fast. Wang Yuanting, who came in last, couldn't help but quicken his pace. Shen Qingxi turned into a monster without paying attention. It was really worrying. It would be difficult if there were still red fire spiders left in the cave.
Wang Yuanting rushed into the hole with his double-eyed mouse, and within a few steps he saw the light of the night pearl. He breathed a sigh of relief and strode towards it.
When Shen Qingxi saw Wang Yuanting rushing over, she waved to Wang Yuanting excitedly: "Elder brother, there is actually a pool of water here!"
Wang Yuanting winked at the Double-Eyed Rat. The Double-Eyed Rat immediately understood and slithered into the pool and disappeared.
"Ah, the little guy can actually swim. It looks like he can swim faster than his senior brother!" Shen Qingxi couldn't help but praise her repeatedly, but she accidentally offended Wang Yuanting.
"Cough!" Wang Yuanting knew he had lost face and coughed slightly to cover up his embarrassment.
Shen Qingxi didn't notice anything strange about Wang Yuanting at all, and was fascinated by the double-eyed rat's vigorous swim under the water. After a while, its wet little head came out of the water, with a lively little river in its mouth. shrimp.
Wang Yuanting knelt down, took the river shrimp from its mouth, stood up and looked at it carefully, nodded with satisfaction, and threw it back into the pool.
"How is it?" Shen Qingxi came over anxiously. When she saw the double-eyed rat returned safely, she knew that there was no big problem with the pool.
Wang Yuanting nodded affirmatively and replied to Shen Qingxi: "This pool is deep in the cave, and there are actually living creatures living there. It seems that the underground water here is very rich. Although it is not as good as the spiritual spring in the valley, the living water is drinkable. .”
As he spoke, he took out the water bag from the storage ring, took the water and tasted it first. After making sure that it was fine, he let Shen Qingxi drink it with confidence.
After one man and one rat drank the water, they returned to the entrance of the cave to guard Wang Yuanting. Shen Qingxi sacrificed the magic weapon Soul Seizing Bell and cast a spell to create an illusion to hide the entrance of the cave. The huge entrance of the cave suddenly turned into a hard stone wall.
"You see, I'm still useful. This stone wall looks just like the real thing." Shen Qingxi praised herself vigorously, trying to gain some confidence in front of the double-eyed rat.
"Zhizhi!" The double-eyed rat squeaked arrogantly twice, twisting its butt twice, as if it was disdainful of her spells.
Shen Qingxi was a little annoyed and had nothing to do with him, so she had to take out a piece of spiritual grass and wave it in front of its eyes.
The double-eyed rat immediately showed a longing look. Upon seeing this, Shen Qingxi put away the spiritual grass, pinched her waist and threatened: "Sister, I am also a monk in the Golden Core stage. No matter how much you look down on me, you must speak to me nicely." You are so arrogant, otherwise I will file a complaint if Senior Brother wakes up!"
The double-eyed rat was immediately discouraged upon hearing this. It "squeaked" feebly twice, lowered its head and looked up at the spiritual grass again, its eyes filled with desire again.
"The little guy is so good!" Shen Qingxi threw the spiritual grass over with satisfaction. The double-eyed rat's clumsy body was agile, and he easily jumped to grab the spiritual grass and ate it happily.
One person and one mouse were extremely comfortable in this Lingzhu Cave, and were not affected by the strong smell of blood at all. However, this harmonious atmosphere also made Shen Qingxi start to take it lightly.
Seeing that the double-pupiled mouse was eating very happily, she also took a piece of hibiscus cake from the storage bag on her waist to eat. She picked up the spirit spider demon pill and started to play with it while eating.
The third-level demon pill had cooled down for a long time and was no longer hot to the touch. The red color in the gold was particularly eye-catching. It was a pity that Wang Yuanting made such a beautiful thing into "tatters" just to make her happy.
"Chichi!" The double-eyed rat cried out excitedly. Shen Qingxi thought it became excited again after seeing the demon pill, so she didn't pay too much attention.
She smiled happily and comforted him: "I will definitely ask your master to get you a metallic demon elixir to try in the future."
"Squeak!" The double-eyed rat once again let out a warning cry. This time it was even more impatient than the last time. It straightened up, put its two hind paws on the ground, and stood up directly.
Shen Qingxi finally noticed something strange. She used her spiritual sense to look around, and suddenly found two golden elixir stage monks rushing toward the Spirit Spider Cave.
"Who could it be? Could it be someone from the Huan Mie Sect?" Just when Shen Qingxi hesitated, one of them had already arrived in front of her.
The man came with a sword, rushed out of a narrow cave, landed firmly in front of Shen Qingxi, bowed his hands calmly, and asked: "May I ask, girl, is this the Red Fire Spirit Spider Cave?"
"It's actually a woman?" Shen Qingxi looked at the uninvited guest in front of her, a strong woman in her thirties, and couldn't help but sigh. She had never heard that the Huan Mie Sect had female disciples.
Shen Qingxi's question made the woman stunned for a moment, but then she regained her composure and asked seriously: "What does the girl think is wrong?"
Shen Qingxi waved her hands hurriedly. Seeing how serious this woman was, she couldn't help but look at her carefully. The woman was wearing a simple black short robe, with a bright yellow girdle tied around her waist. The materials used were extremely sophisticated, and they were even embroidered.
Looking at her appearance, she has thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a high nose. Although she is not tall, her limbs are slender, and her wheat-colored skin makes it obvious at a glance that she is from nearby Youzhou.
Youzhou is a sparsely populated area, and there are not many people cultivating immortals. Therefore, this female monk at the Golden Core stage is either a member of the Huan Mie Sect or a disciple of the Moying Sect. I wonder why she is here?
The woman felt Shen Qingxi's passionate eyes, and her calm expression showed a trace of panic. She raised her hands and saluted, "I'm the guardian of the Huanmie Sect, what do you call me? How can you be here alone?"
"I..." When Shen Qingxi heard that the woman named Shou Gong actually announced her family name, she directly said that she was from the Huan Mie Sect. In this way, she had to keep her identity secret, but she didn't want to lie, so she had to hesitate for a long time and couldn't answer.
Seeing Shen Qingxi's troubled look, Shou Gong couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and said to her: "It doesn't matter, we meet by chance, so it's a good thing to be more vigilant."
"Thank you for your understanding, sister!" Shen Qingxi smiled sheepishly and played with the Spirit Spider Demon Pill in her palm.
When the guard saw it, his eyes lit up, and he stepped forward eagerly and asked, "How did you get this demon pill, girl?"
Shen Qingxi was startled by her sudden approach and hurriedly put away the demon elixir in her hand. Just as she was thinking about how to reply, another cultivator at the golden elixir stage came with a sword, and she was also a female cultivator.
It is said that they are wielding swords, but in fact the two of them are stepping on knives. It is not uncommon to use long knives to make magic weapons. However, the two of them can freely control objects in this narrow and twisting spirit spider cave, which shows that their cultivation is not low.
"Who is this person?" The female cultivator landed, strode forward, and asked Shen Qingxi.
Shen Qingxi saw that she was younger than Shugong, and her cultivation seemed to have just entered the Golden Core realm, which made her begin to admire this female cultivator's ability to control objects.
Seeing Shen Qingxi's harmless appearance, Shou Gong felt a little unbearable in his heart. He saw her protecting Shen Qingxi behind her and said calmly: "She is just a casual cultivator with extremely low cultivation level and is of no use to you."
"Really?" The female cultivator smiled coquettishly, twisted her waist tightly, and walked slowly towards Shen Qingxi. Her five-color gauze skirt moves automatically without wind, flowing elegantly, and her slender thighs are looming, charming and breathtaking.
Faced with her provocation, Shou Gong frowned slightly and said sternly: "Bosi! Do you still remember what Elder Tianlong said before leaving? Have you forgotten this mission to Youzhou?"
The face of the female cultivator named Bosi suddenly turned gloomy, and her original charming look was instantly replaced by a look of hatred. She gritted her teeth and replied, "Of course I haven't forgotten that the fifth elder cannot die in vain!"
Seeing this, the tension in Shou Gong's heart eased a little, and he continued: "Elder Tianlong asked you to follow me, but he didn't tell you to steal my people."
When Bosi heard this, she laughed loudly. She finally stopped laughing, twisted her waist, and said jokingly: "My fellow disciples all said that you are different, but now it seems that you are really different from others. Since you like , the slave family won’t get involved!”
Bo Si then left with a smile, holding the magic sword and heading deeper into the spider cave, leaving Shou Gong and Shen Qingxi behind.
Only then did Shen Qingxi realize that the double-eyed rat was missing, and she cursed in her heart. Before she could think about it, she saw the guardian turned around with the word "sorry" written all over his face.
"Thank you Sister Shou Gong!" Shen Qingxi's cheeks were slightly red, and she didn't know how to thank Shou Gong for saving her life. If the words of the female cultivator named Bo Si were true, wouldn't she have to...
The corners of Shou Gong's mouth rose again. In an instant, the smile disappeared, and cold words blurted out: "Sister, don't get me wrong, I just practice different techniques from other disciples of the Huan Mie Sect. Don't think that I am a good person."
Shou Gong's words were very serious and did not sound like a joke at all, but Shen Qingxi felt that she was fake at this time, and the polite she just now was the real one!
"Since my sister protects me, I will give this demon pill to you!" Shen Qingxi said, spreading her palms, and the demon pill became even more red due to the temperature in her palm.
Shou Gong's eyes were full of longing, but his mouth was closed closer. Just now, she could exchange or rob him, it was understandable. But now it has become a thank you gift from the other party. According to the rules of the Huan Mie Sect, she can no longer accept this thing unless...
"Haha, if you want to take it, just take it!" Shen Qingxi's words interrupted Shou Gong's thoughts, and while she was in a daze, he forced the Red Fire Spider Pill into her hand.
Shou Gong had never seen such a lively and bright girl before. He was infected by her enthusiasm unknowingly and no longer postponed accepting Shen Qingxi's gift of thanks. However, the sect's rules could not be broken. Besides, she originally wanted to use other things. exchange with it.
With a flash of consciousness, she quickly took out a few brocade cloths from the storage ring and handed them to Shen Qingxi: "Don't worry, I won't bully the small with the big. When I came to this valley, although I didn't have much, I had a few things. Zhang Danfang, can I exchange it with you?"
Shen Qingxi nodded quickly, took the pill in her hand and checked it. She liked such a magnanimous person very much. If she hadn't had something important to do today, she would have really wanted to tell him her name.
If the Shou Gong is willing, the two can become Jinlan sisters, and then have some fun and talk while drinking, wouldn't it be fun!
