Dongfang Yu'er's 'White Death Sword' drew an arc of sharp light. The arc light was so sharp that it severely scratched ten masked men in black. The ten masked men in black screamed, "Ah!" It rolled down from the bamboo shoots to the ground with a thud.
Sima Ao also held Dongfang Yu'er's hand and flew to the ground.
The masked man in black under the bamboo forest was also beaten severely by the members. With the participation of Zilan Fairy and ten members, Shao Siming and his ten members were at a disadvantage. Now they turned defeat into victory and beat the masked man in black. People folded and backed away.
Suddenly there was a whistle, and the masked man in black retreated and quickly disappeared without a trace. When the masked man in black retreated, Dongfang Yu'er and ten members were about to pursue them but were stopped by Sima Ao.
The members looked puzzled and asked why they didn't pursue the victory.
"When you don't know the opponent's details and purpose, don't blindly pursue the victory, just in case it's a trap set by the opponent." Sima Ao replied.
The members thought about it deeply and felt that what Sima Ao said was indeed reasonable, so they stopped asking.
Sima Ao said again: "Young Siming, what's going on? Where are the other ten members going?"
"Yes, where's Shun Dao?" Dongfang Yu'er realized at this moment that ten members and Shun Dao's brother were missing.
"After you jumped off the auspicious cloud, we had no choice but to jump off the auspicious cloud. Since we didn't jump off at once, it was impossible for us to fall into the mortal world at the same time, so... I stopped by with the other ten members. I don't know where they are. Where." Shao Siming replied.
"Does that mean we lost contact?" Sima Ao said
Shao Siming replied ashamedly: "Yes."
Sima Ao took a deep breath and said, "The only thing we can do now is go to Xuanzhen Taoist Temple to see if they will get there first."
After speaking, everyone gathered and set off to Xuanzhen Taoist Temple. Since it was difficult to ride a horse due to the large number of people, Sima Ao proposed to let the horses go on foot instead.
Along the way, Sima Ao was worried that masked men in black would suddenly attack, and reminded the members many times to be careful.
Sima Ao arranged for Dongfang Yu'er and Zilan Fairy to lead the way, with the other members following closely behind. He and Shao Siming were on guard against being attacked again.
On the way, Sima Ao asked in confusion: "Young Siming, who is that masked man in black and why did he attack us? Is it possible that you really don't know that we are immortals?"
Shao Siming was also puzzled: "I don't know who the masked man in black is, nor what the purpose of the masked man in black is in attacking us. But one thing is certain, the masked man in black will definitely Not a mortal."
"The masked man in black is scary only if he is not a mortal." Sima said proudly.
Shao Siming agreed with Ditou and said: "There will be more dangers waiting for us next."
The whereabouts of the ten members were unknown, and they were in a hurry to subdue the dragon. Now they were attacked by masked men in black. A series of events made Sima Ao feel uneasy!
Puff puff……
The dense and frightening bamboo forest suddenly picked up the wind, making a "puff" sound, and the bamboo leaves fell one after another...
Sima Ao had an ominous premonition and urged: "Quick, quick, we must get out of this bamboo forest before the sun goes down."
The members also realized that this bamboo forest was indeed strange, and they all accelerated their pace, as fast as meteors chasing the moon, and walked out of the bamboo forest just before the sun went down.
After walking out of the bamboo forest, there was a road. There was a village about 500 meters away from the road. Only then did everyone let go of the fear they had suppressed in their hearts.
"It's getting dark now. How about staying overnight in the village tonight and then on the road tomorrow." Shao Siming asked Sima Ao.
Sima Ao thought for a while and said: "Okay! It's dark and the road is not easy to walk. We'll stay in the village for one night tonight. We'll be on our way as soon as it gets light tomorrow."
Deciding to stay in the village for the night, everyone walked towards the path leading to the village.
A strange thing happened. The whole village looked extremely desolate and desolate. The mulberry fields were overgrown with weeds, the ground was covered with dead branches and leaves, and there were no lights in the surrounding areas.
It’s just getting dark today! Did the villagers turn off the lights and go to bed so early?
Everyone saw this scene and recalled today's fierce battle in the bamboo forest, which made people shudder even more.
Dongfang Yu'er plucked up the courage to go to the door of a farmer's house, knocked on the door and shouted: "Is anyone there? Open the door! We were passing by and wanted to stay overnight."
Many times no one in the room responded, but the low voices of people in the room could be heard.
Dongfang Yu'er knocked on the door three times and called three times, but there was still no response in the room.
How is this going?
Everyone was puzzled by how strange this village was. There was no sound, the lights were out, it was desolate and deserted, and there was no trace of popularity.
I continued to look for the next hotel to stay, but I didn't expect that the door of the second house was also locked. No matter how Dongfang Yu'er knocked on the door or called, no one paid attention.
When we arrived at the third house, we saw a vermilion door with two red lanterns hanging in front of it. A faint candlelight could be seen from the crack in the door, indicating that this family was relatively wealthy.
This time, the Purple Orchid Fairy knocked on the door. The Purple Orchid Fairy tapped the door three times and called in a soft voice: "Is anyone there? Please open the door! We are staying overnight."
weird! How weird!
The people in the room heard the knock on the door, but did not respond to the Purple Orchid Fairy. Instead, they blew out the candles. Everyone was stunned for a moment, wondering what was going on? Why are the villagers in the village so scared...
"It seems that the villagers in this village are very afraid of outsiders. How about we find a flat place to set up camp outside? Can we take turns to sleep?" Sima Ao asked.
After traveling all day, everyone was already tired from dealing with the masked man in black. They all agreed with Sima Ao and went to find a piece of flat land to rest.
Everyone came to a river outside the village. There was a green lawn here, which was very open and beautiful, perfect for camping.
"Let's set up here!" Sima proudly said.
Shao Siming also agreed to set up camp here, and ordered two members to find some dry firewood nearby, and ordered two adults to find some edible food, and ordered Zilan Fairy and Dongfang Yu'er to go to the river to collect some clean water. .
After a while, the members safely found dry firewood and stole some sweet potatoes grown by the villagers. Fairy Zilan and Dongfang Yuer not only brought clean water, but also caught a big fish.
In the dark and quiet night, everyone set up a bonfire and grilled corn and big fish. At this time, everyone was less afraid and became more cheerful.
Shao Siming asked Sima Ao how he found Dongfang Yu'er. He also asked Sima Ao if floods were everywhere in the Southern Kingdom, and why so many refugees fled to the Northern Kingdom?
Sima Ao told Shao Siming in detail what happened in the southern country.
When Sima Ao mentioned that there was a Longtan acupoint in the southern country, Young Siming frowned, with a trace of uneasiness on his face.
"I once heard Emperor Donghua say that when Emperor Yu was smelting water in the south, he sealed a dragon that could call wind and rain in the Longtan Cave. Could it be that the Longtan Cave in Yancheng in the southern country was the dragon sealed by Emperor Yu."
Sima Ao nodded and replied: "Yes, I have asked the land. Now that the dragon can break through the seal, I think it is someone with ulterior motives who is secretly helping." Sima Ao said.
"It is difficult for dragons to break through Emperor Yu's seal. It must be man-made, but what is their purpose?"
Sima Ao paused for a moment. He was so smart that he couldn't guess what the purpose of the person who released the dragon was?
Sima Ao added: "What is their purpose? The top priority now is to quickly find the remaining ten members and rush to the Longtan Cave to surrender the dragon."
"What Mr. Wenquxing said is true. We must surrender the dragon as soon as possible. If the dragon does not surrender, not only will the southern country be destroyed, but the entire mortal world will also be in trouble." Shao Siming agreed.
