The place where the three of them were was a naturally formed underground grotto. It was unknown how the ancestors of the Qi Medical Sect found such a cave.
Although several people had stepped on the ground and no longer had to worry about being swallowed by the weak water, their teeth were still chattering after soaking in the cold and biting water for a long time. They hurriedly helped each other to the nearby shore.
After a brief exchange, Lin Zidai learned about Jia Lihu's situation: "I didn't expect that Brother Jia would ignore his own safety. I really admire Lin!"
Jia Liehu waved his hand after hearing this: "Where, if it weren't for my benefactor Lin Qingxuan, how would I have this life? Now that my husband is in trouble, how can I turn a blind eye?"
Lin Zidai smiled when he heard this, then looked at Jia Orion up and down, and asked doubtfully: "Brother Jia, where is your bamboo knife?"
"I heard from brother Lu Chun that my bamboo sword would attract the thunder of the heavenly tribulation, so I threw it away..." Jia Lihu shrugged and smiled awkwardly.
"Really?" Lin Zidai nodded slightly, "I was originally worried that Brother Jia would be in danger if he stayed outside alone, and I couldn't worry about it. Since you can come here, that's great! Time is running out now, so let's hurry up Find the source of Zhengqi... Do you have any questions?"
As soon as Lin Zidai turned around, he saw that Lu Chun looked a little strange and asked in confusion: "Brother Lu?"
"No, everything is done according to Sir's instructions." Jia Liehu hurriedly answered Lin Zidai's words, then winked at Lu Chun and raised his voice a bit: "Brother Lu Chun, Sir is calling you!"
Only then did Lu Chun react and responded several times: "Oh, it's okay... I just choked on some water and felt a little uncomfortable... Don't worry about me, just hurry up!"
Lin Zidai just said "Oh" without saying anything more, then turned around and walked forward.
"Brother Lu Chun, let me help you up!" Seeing that Lin Zidai had already moved, Jia Liehu hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Lu Chun's arm to support him, then lowered his voice and said: "Brother Lu Chun, I hope you If he can act more normal, if he arouses suspicion, I'm afraid he will..." Jia Orion made a gesture of wiping his neck. Lu Chun naturally understood, he nodded, then stood up and followed Jia Orion.
Although the underground grotto in front of you is not small, it is not very big either. The space inside is like a layer of convex structures superimposed upwards. It can be said that except for the high stone platform in the center of the grotto, the rest of the place is a groove paved with rows of stone steps, and the position where they just landed happened to be the depth of this groove.
Before, Lu Chun slipped and fell without being prepared in advance. Logically speaking, even if he didn't die, he would be disabled. However, fortunately, the groove where he fell was filled with weak water that came from nowhere, allowing him to save a small life. .
Lu Chun rejoiced in his heart as he followed the two people in front of him around the steps outside the stone platform. This time he arrived on the stone platform without much effort.
But as soon as they stepped onto the stone platform, they felt a huge coercion appear out of thin air. It was like an invisible mountain pressing down from above their heads, causing them to kneel to the ground.
Lu Chun was already weak, so how could he bear such a load? He felt like he was about to be crushed into mud. He finally managed to squeeze out a sentence: "Old Jia, Duzi Lin, what's going on?"
Lin Zidai took a deep breath and then reluctantly stood up. He looked around and saw many swaying stone tablets arranged around the stone platform. He also waved to the two of them: "Brother Lu, Brother Jia! Follow me quickly. Come!"
Lu Chun looked up and saw that Lin Zidai had begun to crawl towards a stone monument not far away. He could only grit his teeth and twist on the ground with his hands and feet.
Although he was only a few feet away from the location of the stone tablet, it was as difficult as climbing to the sky. Every time he took a step forward, he would be pushed some distance laterally by this huge pressure. At the end, when he was only one step away from the stone monument, his body was pushed to the edge of the stone platform by the pressure.
Lu Chun glanced under the stone platform and found that the ground below was different from where it fell before. There was only a thin layer of weak water, which could only be regarded as a puddle of water stains. If you slip and fall from here, the consequences will be disastrous.
When Lin Zidai saw something was wrong with Lu Chun, he naturally noticed something and hurriedly shouted: "Brother Lu! Don't stand up!"
At this moment, Lu Chun didn't know why but didn't listen to Lin Zidai's warning. Instead, he rushed behind the stone monument as soon as he could hold up his body!
But just when he stood up, Lu Chun suddenly felt as if he was hit by a galloping horse. He could no longer move forward and fell directly under the stone platform.
Soon after, Jia Lihu, who had just hid behind the stone monument, had quick eyesight and quick hands. He directly grabbed Lu Chun's wrist and swung Lu Chun back from mid-air, and brought him behind the stone monument.
Lu Chunpo was a little shocked, but he also took a deep breath and thanked Jia Orion profusely.
"Brother Lu, why didn't you listen to my advice just now!" Lin Zidai frowned and sounded accusatory.
Lu Chun grinned: "I saw that it was already the last minute anyway, so I wanted to give it a try..."
"Sir, don't blame Brother Lu Chun... hurry up and tell us what's going on?" Jia Lihu hurriedly persuaded.
Lin Zidai sighed, and then continued: "I just looked around and found that there is a gate on the wall over there. From that gate, you can reach the location opposite us, so the opposite place should be The correct path, and the way we just came is actually Zhengqi's 'flood outlet'."
"Flood outlet?" Lu Chun and Jia Lihu were confused when they heard this.
"Yes, because the center of the stone platform here is where the source of Zheng Qi is. In order to control the spreading Zheng Qi, the Qi medical sect built these stone tablets to guide the outgoing Zheng Qi so that they can be absorbed. Control. Therefore, there are two paths, one Yin and one Yang, outside the stone platform. The Yang path is responsible for guiding Zheng Qi, and the Yin path is the only one that humans can pass through."
"I see, but..." Lu Chun suddenly realized what he said, but when he was about to ask something, he hurriedly stopped talking.
"Brother Lu has some doubts, but it doesn't matter." Lin Zidai looked at Lu Chun and said calmly.
"It's nothing, I just want to say, since we took the wrong route, wouldn't we be trapped and die here?" Lu Chun glanced at Jia Lihu, and then continued to ask.
Lin Zidai didn't notice Lu Chun's look, but turned around to check the stone tablet: "That's not necessarily the case. Since this stone tablet can block the invasion of Zhengqi, we just need to use it to help us get out of the scope of influence!"
As he spoke, Lin Zidai saw a flash of light in his hand, cutting off the stone tablet by its roots, and then it broke with a click in front of them.
What Lu Chun wanted to ask just now was why they didn't notice anything when they came up from below since the stone tablet had guided Zheng Qi out, but he took back the question when he saw Jia Lihu winking at him.
Hearing that Lin Zidai wanted to use the stone tablet as a barrier, Lu Chun wanted to see what method he could use. But before he could react, he saw a flash of lightning in the hand of the man in front of him, and the stone tablet in front of him was cut off like a piece of tofu, and he took a breath of cold air.
Lu Chun had never seen Lin Zidai use such techniques in all these years, so he was even more convinced that the Lin Zidai in front of him was the wolf Qianxun pretending to be him. It's a pity that he is weak and unarmed, and he is really no match for the person in front of him. For a while, Lu Chun couldn't think of a solution, so he could only take one step at a time.
"You two, follow me closely!" Lin Zidai said, holding his hands on both sides of the stone monument, and then dragged the stone monument towards the other side of the stone platform. Although this method is simple, it works, and it has indeed brought several people out of trouble.
Because the position they were in before was hit by Zhengqi, it was very difficult to even get up. How could they bother to look around? At this time, the oppression they were under was lifted, and they were finally able to focus on the situation in front of them.
They looked towards the center of the stone platform and saw a huge stone turtle hidden among the pile of stone tablets. Although these are all carved from stone, this pile of stone tablets cannot cover up the majestic and simple atmosphere of the stone turtle.
But what is more eye-catching at this time is not the stone turtle itself, but a golden light held in the stone turtle's mouth!
Although it is indeed incredible to say this, the real situation is like this. The golden light in the mouth of this stone turtle is so brilliant that others cannot see its original shape clearly.
"Then...that's the source of Zhengqi?" Jia Lihu's eyes were filled with light, and he couldn't help but move forward. But Lin Zidai was one step faster and was already walking through the stone monument.
"Brother Lu Chun! Don't be stunned! Hurry!" Jia Lihu ran a few steps, and when he saw Lu Chun still standing there, he also hurriedly urged him, and the latter hurriedly followed the two's route.
Lu Chun originally thought that the fake Lin Zidai's sudden move was to seize the source of Zhengqi and escape, but he didn't expect that when he arrived in front of Shi Gui, he fell to his knees on the ground with a plop, muttering to himself while bowing and kowtowing three times. Let's do a great ceremony.
"The unworthy descendant Lin Zidai pays homage to his ancestors... The unworthy descendant Lin Zidai pays homage to his ancestors..."
Seeing the fake Lin Zidai in front of him who was sincerely affectionate, Lu Chun began to doubt Jia Orion's judgment. He took a step back and approached Jia Orion: "Old Jia... are you seeing it wrong? Why do I feel like this is in front of me?" Doesn’t Zizilin look like a fake?”
"Brother Lu Chun, I have been following you all the way. I will naturally be able to tell whether it is true or false! As the saying goes: What is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true! I believe that sooner or later he will reveal his flaws... So we all You must pay attention to the source of Zhengqi, and don’t let him fool you!”
Lu Chun nodded thoughtfully, and his eyes suddenly fell on the golden light in the mouth of the stone turtle in front of him.
He saw that Lin Zidai's three bows and nine kowtows were not over yet, and Jia Lihu was standing aside with no intention of taking action. Suddenly, his mind moved, and he raised his hand and stretched out in front of the stone turtle...
