"Has the digging been completed?" Li Shuidao asked.
The girl huddled in the tree hole shook her head.
"Then what have you dug in two months?" Li Shuidao asked in a low voice.
"Come in and see for yourself."
Li Shuidao glanced at the tree hole, frowned and said, "This is too narrow."
"Take off your clothes and you can follow me in." After Qiu Lanying finished speaking, she shrank into the tree hole, leaving only a dark hole.
This hole was dug when Li Shuilong delivered a letter to himself.
I really didn't expect it...
Li Shuidao took off his clothes, put them into a storage bag, and then threw the storage bag into the hole. Then he moved his body and got into the narrow tree hole.
Although the tree hole is very narrow, the walls of the hole are very smooth.
But it's too narrow...
The cave in the tree hole is so narrow that there is no place for climbing. Li Shuidao is like a lump of sausage meat, stuck in the pipe, unable to advance or retreat...
At this moment, a set of bright red flesh wrapped around his arm, and a huge force acted on his body. The long and narrow cave was about ten meters deep. Li Shuidao felt as if he had entered the intestines. Fortunately, the intestine is not too curly. This should be a cave dug out of the root system of a withered tree...
A beautiful little girl stood happily in the tree bag.
"Do you usually live here?" Li Shuidao asked.
Qiu Lanying nodded.
"Then what do you eat? How do you keep your body from collapsing?" Li Shuidao asked curiously.
Although this belt looks very safe, it may not be more than a prison.
Qiu Lanying didn't explain. Bright red flesh thorns suddenly appeared on her feet. The flesh thorns penetrated into the ground and inserted through the gaps between the roots...
Then Qiu Lanying disappeared entirely...
After a while.
A bright red flesh thorn came out from the gap between the roots. Then the flesh thorn became more and more numerous and thicker, and finally turned into the appearance of a girl.
"What are you eating in this dirt?" Li Shuidao asked.
"Earthworms," the girl replied.
"It should be a little swollen." Li Shuidao said suddenly.
The girl nodded, then rolled her eyes and fainted.
In this narrow tree hole, Li Shuidao reached out and touched Qiu Lanying's smooth skin...
…
When Li Shuidao came to the ground, it was already late at night...
It was very troublesome for him to move in the tree hole. At this time, "Dragon Bone Tai Sui" was already asleep. No one could help him but he could only rely on himself.
In the narrow cave, you can only move with five fingers...
If the same ginseng is a spiritual snake, I'm afraid it will be much better...
It is really difficult for frog ginseng to drill into such a narrow hole.
Li Shuidao spent a lot of effort to get out of the tree hole, but found that he didn't have the storage bag with him. He was naked and didn't even wear any clothes.
A cool breeze blew in the courtyard...
The twelve female cultivators arranged by Li Shuidao in the cave have all fallen asleep.
Not a single one of the twelve female cultivators was missing, which meant that no third-level cultivator with ill intentions came to visit him.
The cave is safe for the time being...
A bedroom located in the side courtyard of Dongfu.
Li Shuidao gently pushed open the bedroom door, and two spider threads were broken at the same time.
The companions of these twelve maids are all blood spiders, and spiders can build webs, which is the best warning method.
If you raise twelve spiders in a cave, even the True Monarch Wuxiang will not be able to hide quietly in the cave and ambush you.
No matter how high the visitor's cultivation level is, the spider threads everywhere will be triggered. At that time, the visitor will be forced to kill these twelve maids, or control them and search for the soul of one of them.
As long as any one of them dies, Li Shuidao will quietly give up here...
Before the spider silk was broken, Zero 04 and Zero 5 had actually woken up. They felt the burning in their lower abdomens, so they woke up from their dreams.
The two women sat up and saw Li Shuidao standing in front of them.
At this time, Li Shuidao had just emerged from the tree root passage and had not had time to put on his clothes.
"Go and find some clothes for me." Li Shuidao ordered in a low voice.
It took a long time for Zero Zero Four and Zero Zero Five to come back to their senses. When they heard Li Shuidao's words, they immediately replied respectfully: "Yes."
"But Lord, we don't have men's clothes." Ling Lingwu said with a frown.
"We have brought a lot of fabrics and can help the Lord make a dress." Ling Lingsi said quickly.
"Then do it quickly." Li Shuidao waved his hand and said.
"Master, come to the bed and rest." Zero Zero Four said.
Li Shuidao walked to the bed and sat down slowly.
"Zero Five... you go and ask the two sisters to help, and I will measure the master's size." Zero Zero Four said in a tone that left no room for doubt.
Zero Zero Five: "..."
Zero Zero Five shook his head helplessly, turned around and walked to the window.
Gently push the window open, and there is an almost invisible spider thread hanging on the window.
She gently fiddled with the spider silk and conveyed the message easily.
"This..." Li Shuidao looked shocked.
Although the Dark Hall was created by him, he never expected that these female cultivators would have developed to this extent.
I saw Ling Ling Wu's jade hands gently sliding over the spider silk. It felt like plucking the strings of a piano, elegant and smooth.
Conveying information by playing with the strings...
How wonderful!
This is a technique that they gradually learned after practicing together with the Blood Spider.
This ability originates from the spider monster and is their innate power.
This is just like Li Shuidao using the "Eye of Catching the Wind" in battle. Even with Li Shuidao's current level of cultivation, this magical power is of great help to him.
Several maids in black came to the room after receiving the message.
They silently joined the team of maid Zero and Five and began to make new clothes for Li Shuidao. Their techniques are skillful and fast, and every stitch and thread appears so precise and attentive.
Zero Zero Four reported the measurements, and several women quickly made it. Soon a man's black robe was completed.
"My lord, please try on your clothes." Ling Lingsi turned to Li Shuidao and said respectfully.
Li Shuidao took the black robe and quickly put it on.
Although this black robe is simple, it fits her perfectly.
"Thank you." Li Shuidao said sincerely.
When these maids heard Li Shuidao's words, they couldn't help but feel a little shy.
"My lord, you are too polite." Zero Zero Four said respectfully.
"Okay, it's getting late, you guys should rest first." Li Shuidao said with a smile.
"We will wait for the Lord to rest." All the women said in unison.
Li Shuidao shook his head and said, "No need! I usually come back once every night, but you can't reveal my whereabouts to the outside world. Remember, if any Taoist friends come to visit and ask about my whereabouts, just say that I am practicing in seclusion."
"We understand." The girls said in unison
"See you tomorrow night then."
"Your Majesty."
Li Shuidao nodded and turned into a ray of light and left.
He needs to find another entrance to the underground nearby. Only in this way can the golden cicada escape from its shell when encountering a crisis...
What's more, he really can't stay in the cave for a long time.
…
The next day.
Li Shuidao did not return for a whole day, and his whereabouts were unknown.
Until night falls...
Li Shuidao quietly returned to his cave.
It was obviously a cave given to him by his sect, but Li Shuidao acted like a thief.
Li Shuidao, dressed in black robe, quietly returned to Taiyin Cave like a night walker.
The twelve female disciples sensed Li Shuidao's return and came to the small courtyard to pay homage to their master.
"Welcome, Your Majesty." The women said one after another.
"What happened during the day today?" Li Shuidao asked.
The girls looked at each other, and someone immediately said anxiously: "Reporting to the Lord, something bad has happened! This morning the monks from the General Affairs Hall informed us that each of us must pay two hundred meritorious deeds before we can continue to stay in the cave as the Lord's disciples. , if we don’t pay all the merits next month, according to the sect rules, the sect will kick us out, and even the master can’t save us.”
"I don't ask for anything in return, I just want to serve my master, but I didn't expect the monks from the General Affairs Hall to be so unkind and threaten to drive us away!"
"He said this is the sect's rule. If we don't pay all our merits next month, we will be expelled from the sect directly."
"I don't want to leave Master."
Li Shuidao pondered for a moment and said patiently: "Don't worry, I have already discussed this matter with my family. They promised to pay me merit within this month."
When the female disciples heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Li Shuidao asked again: "Besides, is there anything else?"
Zero Zero Four spoke timidly: "A beautiful female nun came to see you today."
Li Shuidao frowned: "Did she leave her name?"
Zero Zero Four shook his head: "She didn't reveal her name, she just said she wanted to see you."
Li Shuidao frowned and fell into deep thought.
Who is this woman?
But the case of the Yunmang Sword Sect?
"Master, after this person left, the sisters who are good at painting silently drew her portrait." Zero Four Four continued to explain.
"Oh? Who is good at painting?" Li Shuidao asked curiously.
"It's Sister Zero One and Two." A pretty and pleasant woman came out and she spread out a picture gracefully.
The scroll depicts a beautiful woman dressed in blue, graceful and graceful like rippling blue waves. Her face is clear and beautiful, her eyebrows are like distant mountains, and her eyes are like morning stars, showing a touch of melancholy.
Next to her, followed a big black bird...
The woman in this scroll is exactly the portrait of Lan Huaying. Although she is only painted with a brush, she can still feel the melancholy temperament exuding from her body.
It can be seen from the portrait that she is very worried...
Based on the information given by the Ding family, Li Shuidao could probably guess the purpose of Lan Huaying's visit, and he could just use her to obtain a way to break through to the third level.
The best way to face danger is not to hide, but to improve your cultivation as soon as possible, accumulate powerful trump cards, and let the enemy come and hit you with blood.
"Did she say when she would come back?" Li Shuidao asked.
The girls shook their heads together.
Li Shuidao was silent for a moment and then said: "If she comes again next time, tell her I will be back tomorrow."
"As commanded."
