Deep underground in the city lord's mansion.
Although violent fireworks erupted from a place not far away, the newly opened space was not affected much because it was reinforced by the formation.
At this time, with a soft "bang" sound, a bright yellow halo spread in all directions. The middle-aged man holding the fire folding bag had his face dispelled by the fatigue in the firelight.
He was about to walk towards the entrance of the passage ahead, when he suddenly frowned and looked back. The weak light of Huo Zhezi poured behind him, illuminating a pair of bright and big eyes.
The man's expression changed. After blowing out the fire certificate, he rushed to the little girl, grabbed the little girl and walked away. The little girl shrank her neck in fright at his actions, and her little body stiffened slightly. She waited until her little feet were gone. After landing, he exclaimed: "Uncle Ge."
Geshan frowned for a moment but then relaxed, and said softly: "Didn't I tell you to stay with everyone? If you follow me, won't you be afraid of the dark?"
"Of course I'm afraid of the dark..." The little girl's body softened, and Geshan took advantage of the situation to hold him in his arms. He lowered his steps and walked in the opposite direction to the movement in front. The little girl tilted her head and said softly: "But I I want to be with Uncle Ge."
Geshan frowned slightly. The little girl was actually seven years old, but because she was not as tall as a three or four-year-old girl, she had been bullied by those children. Geshan patted the little girl's back gently and said softly: "Little girl Lu Guai, when Uncle Ge comes back, I will take you to find your parents."
The girl gently rubbed her face against Ge Shan's chest and replied angrily: "I heard from the grandmother next door that my father and mother are here to work. Can Uncle Ge really help me find them?"
Geshan's brows slightly furrowed, he smiled and nodded, "Of course, Uncle Ge will definitely find your parents."
Geshan didn't need light to find the right direction in the intertwined secret passages. He carried the girl to a smooth wall, turned the mechanism and put Xiaolu back into the secret room. He looked into the secret room, Dozens of pairs of eyes in the secret room also looked at him.
Geshan raised his finger in front of his mouth. Seeing that the children were all cooperative and did not speak, he smiled and nodded, his eyes slightly lowered. Xiao Lu was looking at him with her little head raised.
The height of the mechanism in the secret room was changed by Ge Shan, and it is located in the corner. Ge Shan squatted in front of the little girl and pointed there: "It's not only dark outside, but also very threatening. When Uncle Ge comes to find you, remember not to come out again."
Geshan came out of the secret room, increased his speed to the limit, and ran towards the space where the Dragon Blood Pill was refined.
In order to win Bai Hao's trust, he naturally arrested hundreds of children, but it was impossible for him to do anything that would break the bottom line.
There are more than ten such secret rooms in total, and clean water and food are prepared in them. Moreover, even if he cannot come back to open the door for these children in person, the letter that went out with Que Chun will be delivered to Xing Fei.
Now, all this is fighting for is time.
Geshan thought this way, and hit a wall of air head-on. Then it became increasingly difficult for him to move as if he had fallen into a swamp, and his heart suddenly dropped to the bottom.
"snort--"
The breath was unfamiliar and powerful, but the voice was very familiar. Geshan was wondering if he had been exposed. Bai Hao, who had finally escaped the pursuit, said coldly: "If you want to escape, you should prepare your things first. Is this your loyalty?" ?”
In the dark passage, the oppressive momentum receded like a tide. Geshan staggered a few steps forward, pursed his lips and immediately took out a cold jade box from his sleeve: "City Lord, Dragon Blood Pill is here." In the box.”
The Han Jade Box was held in front of Bai Hao by a force, and Ge Shan had time to raise his head and focus on Bai Hao.
In the low light situation, Bai Hao's face turned a little pale, his breath was cold and deep, and his broken arm also grew longer.
Geshan's heart became more and more alarmed. How big the commotion inside the fire screen was. He was probably the one who felt the deepest besides the person involved, but outside the fire screen...
Didn't the city defense troops withdraw, allowing Bai Hao to successfully gather enough blood?
Geshan was still blinded until now, and he didn't know that the most dangerous moment would be when the Nether Flame Formation stopped, but he already had a lot of doubts accumulated in his heart.
So he asked aloud: "Has the city lord succeeded?"
The Cold Jade Box happened to open with a bang at this moment, and the rich power of blood surged out. Bai Hao focused all his attention on the Dragon Blood Pill and said in a deep voice: "You can roll as far as you want now, as long as I succeeded, and it is indispensable without your contribution."
The red dragon blood pill was held and flew towards Bai Hao. Bai Hao opened his mouth and was about to swallow it, but stopped. His eyes fell on Ge Shan's face. Ge Shan frowned and asked, "Is there anything wrong? My subordinates have been This elixir was refined according to the instructions of the city lord."
Bai Hao has a very keen sense of blood energy. He can feel that the dragon blood pill is indeed full of blood energy, but the characteristics of the dragon blood pill that Cao Jin described to him before are as big as the difference between a bad product and a treasure.
Just when Ge Shan was about to speak, Bai Hao swallowed the Dragon Blood Pill directly. After closing his eyes and feeling it, he shook his head and said, "It's not your problem. Alchemy is a technical job. Even if it is a simple refining process, you will lose a lot." Blood."
As the dragon's blood pill turned into majestic blood and dissolved in his body, Bai Hao's face became much rosier. When he looked at Ge Shan, his eyes narrowed, seeming thoughtful.
Geshan didn't want to be silent with Bai Hao, and asked with concern: "How does the city lord feel?"
"It's a little bit off." Bai Hao shook his head and sighed: "It's not a little bit off, it's a lot worse than expected. It seems that you are not suitable for alchemy, but maybe this level of blood is not enough for me."
At this moment, the sound of sword repair could be heard all around. Geshan showed some caution on his face and said: "Then..."
The corner of Bai Hao's mouth twitched. He now understood Geshan's fear of death and his lack of fear of death. He was about to nod, but suddenly changed his mind and whispered: "I know that you and Xing Fei have saved many people, and There should be quite a few people in the underground hall even now. If you want to gain my trust, you only need to do one more thing for me."
Bai Hao whispered a few words and turned around in another direction.
Ge Shan waited until the whistling sword seemed to follow Bai Hao and changed direction, and a moment of hesitation flashed across his face. Bai Hao had obviously not activated the blood sacrifice formation, but the Nether Flame Formation had stopped spewing out fireworks. Shouldn't all this be over?
The doubts in his heart were even more unbearable than the pair of pure eyes in the secret room. Geshan finally headed towards the center of the Youyan Array. He wanted to know whether he was overthinking or whether it was Xiong San and his group. All of them are idiots, they have been affected by the Nether Flame Formation and become the help for Bai Hao's promotion.
But the same situation happened again. Before Geshan could run far, he encountered another invisible obstacle.
Especially after feeling the aura of this force again, Geshan showed some doubts on his face and asked softly: "City Lord?"
No one answered.
Geshan felt terrified as a voice sounded in front of him: "You are indeed still in the inner city."
Hearing Mu Qing's voice, Geshan was a little surprised. At the same time, he felt some problems keenly and said solemnly: "The Nether Flame Formation has stopped, why can't it be in the inner city?"
Mu Qing's voice was not as cold and hard as before, but it was still filled with a hint of hostility: "Where did Bai Hao go? He must be prevented from completely destroying the Nether Flame Formation, otherwise the underground volcano will erupt and the entire inner city will be destroyed."
"Um?"
Mu Qing felt Ge Shan's breath suddenly suffocate in front of him, and he understood a little. His eyes fell on Ge Shan's somewhat pale face and whispered softly: "Don't worry, Xing Fei and the others are very reliable in their work. The Guards have already escorted nearly half of the people." After leaving the inner city, you just need to tell me what you are still doing here and where Bai Hao might go."
Just when Mu Qing thought he was wasting precious time here in Geshan, Geshan quickly pointed out several directions and said in a capable tone: "These places are the bases of the expansion that Bai Hao personally supervised. In addition, he You are asking me to refine a dragon blood pill that can replenish a lot of energy and blood."
Mu Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze fell on Geshan's face.
Geshan raised his eyebrows and said: "Although I am not a good person, I am not as embarrassed as you think. If a fight breaks out, please try to avoid this direction. There are many children there."
"Child?" Mu Qing's voice dropped, and he agreed instantly.
Seeing that the two were about to separate after a brief encounter, Geshan did not want to be misunderstood after all, so he explained softly: "The Liu Yueshan incident..."
While silently refining the power of Shura in his body, Mu Qing responded: "Xie Xiu is dead. It was Chen Zhuo who made the move."
"It seems that Li Fu has brought the letter." Ge Shan nodded.
Mu Qing had already passed by him and asked softly: "Is there anything else?"
There was a trace of bitterness in Geshan's eyes. When facing Mu Qing, who was half her blood, he actually wanted to play the role of an elder, but he also knew that he was not qualified. He opened his mouth and wanted to persuade Mu Qing to recognize the reality. , became the city lord, but in the end he just reminded him: "You don't have to fight desperately, as long as your blood is not enough, Bai Hao has already failed."
"Just be yourself."
Mu Qing actually knew some of Geshan's past events from Huai Fenghua, but he didn't like Geshan's behavior, and he even felt disgusted with it. After leaving these words, he found a direction and left on his own.
"Just do your best..."
Geshan smiled bitterly and shook his head. He lowered his head and thought about the current situation. He suddenly frowned as if he thought of something. He wanted to raise his head and call Mu Qing to tell him his new guesses and worries, but Mu Qing was no longer behind him.
There should be seven formation bases in the Nether Flame Formation, two of which are Baita Temple and Guanhai Temple. The rest of the bases are all under the ground of the City Lord's Mansion.
Now, Bai Hao should have only the last two formation bases left undamaged.
Suddenly, a violent sword roar erupted in the direction of one of the formation bases, and then the entire space shook.
Mu Qing's eyes narrowed, he changed direction midway and headed directly towards the last formation base.
