Mu Qing looked at Zhong Linger.
Since entering this mountain, Zhong Ling'er has shown this frowning and thoughtful expression several times.
Zhong Ling'er remained silent for the time being and did not answer Mu Qing's words. Mu Qing had no choice but to raise her head and look outside the cave.
The dense branches and leaves blocked the skylight through the thick fog, and the surrounding area was no different from night. Occasionally, a cold wind would blow up, and the leaves would sway slightly and make sporadic rustling sounds.
Mu Qing said: "I have been looking around with my consciousness, but apart from the intensity of the miasma in the forest, I didn't find anything else."
In fact, Meng Zhang found nothing unusual, so Mu Qing was looking forward to Zhong Ling'er's answer.
Zhong Ling'er finally ended her troubled thinking and said, "It's strange that I didn't feel like I was being stared at in the first cave."
Mu Qing raised his eyebrows slightly: "Besides there, do you always feel that something is staring at you?"
Zhong Ling'er said humbly: "And this feeling has also changed. If it was a warning before, then it is hostility now."
Mu Qing said: "It seems we have to go back there."
Zhong Ling'er was a little worried: "What if we encounter danger?"
Mu Qing said: "If your feeling is correct, then we have already encountered danger. The other party may be just waiting for an opportunity, maybe when we leave, maybe it is the next cave, but no matter what, the danger on the surface is , it’s more acceptable than the one in the dark.”
The two of them did not explore the remaining caves and quickly returned to their original place.
Mu Qing stood beside the rising mist, instead of rushing directly into the waterfall, and examined the water in front of him for the first time.
The water seeping from the mountain flew down from the top of the boulder, stirring up silver ribbons on the smooth stone wall, and then hitting a shoal on the ground at the bottom of the boulder. The water in the shoal then flowed into the distance.
Now, this knee-deep shoal has undergone some changes, revealing the low rocks at the bottom of the creek, which is much shallower.
Where did the water go?
Mu Qing turned around and looked behind him. There was no daylight when he came, but at this time, the forest was dark again, and there was a damp coldness in the air.
Zhong Ling'er's feelings were much more sensitive, so the spiritual light ribbon around her came to life again, turning into a fire dragon and swimming around the two of them.
Zhong Ling'er tilted her head and said to Mu Qing: "This place is the same as the Great Sun Sect."
Mu Qing smiled slightly, nodded and said: "Yes, it seems that there is an owner here. What we are doing is indeed unethical."
Zhong Ling'er curled her lips in disgust and took a step away from him, "You have all those pills, but I didn't take any of them."
With that said, Zhong Ling'er turned around and looked around, and said crisply: "I have discovered you. Come out and I promise not to deal with you with him. I think this is a misunderstanding. We thought there was no one here before."
Mu Qing didn't think about Zhong Ling'er's words, thinking that the owner here might not be human after all. He seemed to have discovered something, raised his head and said, "The fog is much thicker."
To the outside world, this mountain is a veritable poisonous mountain. The miasma in the forest is poisonous, and the white mist outside the mountain is even more poisonous.
But poisonous gas is actually a special kind of spiritual energy.
In the world outside the mountain, countless spiritual energies are already swarming towards the mountain.
Zhong Ling'er felt it and said to Mu Qing nervously: "He should be out soon."
Mu Qing suddenly thought of the two mountains of the Shuangji Sect and sighed: "It seems that those people back then liked to use the heaven and the earth as a formation."
Mu Qing looked more serious and told Zhong Ling'er: "This mountain is a formation, no wonder only you can sense it."
Just as Zhong Ling'er was about to speak, Mu Qing sent another message into the secret, reminding him: "He will probably attack you first. You should see the opportunity and leave the range of the formation."
Almost the moment Mu Qing finished speaking, a soul-piercing scream resounded through the mountains, and the afternoon light suddenly poured in.
They both looked up, and both were surprised.
The dense forest fell to both sides, and the white mist in the sky was suddenly separated by something, revealing a wide sky. A bloody mouth with huge blue and black teeth suddenly appeared above the two people's sight, taking away the newly exposed skylight. , biting down on both of them.
Mu Qing sighed softly: "Really
greedy. "
Two piercing sounds sounded one after another.
"Ah!!!" Zhong Ling'er screamed in horror, but she had already thrown the Xinghua Bell out and shattered a huge tooth that was crushing towards her.
This blow seemed to completely anger the attacker. He roared angrily, endured the pain, and still bit the two of them.
boom--
Mu Qing's attack arrived at the right time.
The Demon Suppressing Sword hit the remaining giant tooth. Although it did not shatter the giant tooth, it blocked the big mouth for a moment.
By the time the big mouth fell and stirred up countless water vapor, Mu Qing and Zhong Ling'er had already disappeared.
in the air.
A black mist swirls endlessly, trying to corrode everything inside, and never dissipates.
But after a crackling sound, and accompanied by the light of fire emerging from the black mist, the black mist quickly disintegrated, revealing the two figures trapped inside.
Mu Qing wiped off the venom that corroded the flesh and blood on his neck, nodded towards Zhong Ling'er, then looked down, his pupils shrinking involuntarily.
A huge green snake was coiled on the mountain, looking up at the two of them.
Black and blue blood mixed with venom dripped from the broken part of the snake's mouth onto the mountain below.
Every drop will take away acres of forest.
Zhong Ling'er felt that the green snake was staring at her with murderous intent. She subconsciously hid behind Mu Qing and sighed: "It's so big..."
Mu Qing nodded.
The green snake's body was wrapped around the mountain, and the white mist surrounding the mountain became an embellishment, setting off the huge snake scales that looked like jade.
Mu Qing subconsciously rubbed the wound on his neck. When he jumped out of the ground, his speed was only a minute slower, and he was caught up by the venom sprayed out by the snake.
What made Mu Qing most serious was that he was unable to refine the venom immediately.
If it weren't for Zhong Ling'er's help, he wouldn't be as relaxed as he is now.
Mu Qing's eyes swept over the trembling snake scales. He was silent for a moment and said, "You can let us leave?"
Zhong Ling'er looked at Mu Qing with some doubts.
Can their problem with this big snake be solved through communication?
She didn't know that some of Mu Qing's attitudes were gradually firmed up after leaving Shuangji Sect.
In the world of spiritual practice, all entangled problems will eventually return to the simplest logic, that is, the law of the jungle eats the strong. But once you indulge in it, you will only fall into a cycle of cause and effect.
And death is the end of the cycle.
Mu Qing wanted to make some things more possible and said: "I will still take the elixir, but the difference between having an owner and having an owner is different. This conversation should actually be before we step into that cave."
"So you can tell me what you want."
The big snake raised its head slightly, and the poisonous mist rolled around it, but it didn't respond to Mu Qing.
On the contrary, Zhong Ling'er who was standing by was very curious about Mu Qing's attitude and asked, "What if the requirement is that you return the elixir?"
Mu Qing replied: "Then we have to fight and then talk."
Zhong Ling'er rolled her eyes and said, "What's the difference? We have to fight anyway."
Mu Qing squinted his eyes slightly, his eyes never leaving the huge green scales on the snake's body. He noticed the strange rhythms under the scales, and continued calmly: "If you come up, you will kill me." , then I will definitely not talk about it, that is also the easiest."
Zhong Ling'er tried hard to understand Mu Qing's logic, and after a moment she pursed her lips and said, "It's really hard to understand people like you."
Mu Qing tilted his head and smiled at her: "You will understand when you think about our meeting."
Zhong Ling'er's eyes brightened slightly, and it was at this moment that the green snake entrenched on the mountain moved.
The green scales suddenly tightened, and the huge snake body was like a flying arrow, instantly piercing the sky and crashing into the two of them.
This time, the green snake, who knew Zhong Ling'er's power well, did not open its bloody mouth, but slammed into the two of them.
The Green Snake was charging so fast that Mu Qing and Zhong Ling'er only had time to spread out to both sides before the snake's body passed between them.
Mu Qing was about to remind Zhong Ling'er that the target of the green snake was probably her, when he saw the snake's scales suddenly blooming and releasing poisonous mist, so he had to retreat with all his strength.
In the sky, black clouds of poisonous mist swept out from the snakes, swarming and stacking together like dark clouds covering the sky.
The figure of the green snake was hidden in the poisonous mist, and the occasionally exposed scales made extremely sharp sounds when they cut through the air. Mu Qing struggled to catch the changes in these sounds, and immediately rushed towards the sky the moment the sound stopped.
The green snake attacked Mu Qing, opened its bloody mouth, and the venom it shot out caught up with Mu Qing and instantly enveloped Mu Qing's figure.
Mu Qing was well prepared this time, the lightning around him flashed, and the venom hit the lightning and was quickly purified.
When the green snake saw this, a hint of fear flashed through its erect eyes, and it screamed in the sky. The white mist of the mountain below was attracted by it and surrounded it, causing its speed to increase suddenly. He quickly caught up with Mu Qing.
In the distance, Zhong Ling'er turned back to look at the battlefield, and happened to see the huge figure of the Green Snake surrounding Mu Qing. She didn't think much, and the Xinghua Bell beside her turned into a golden stream of light and rushed straight over. .
At this time, Mu Qing, who was resisting the snake's body with his sword array, raised his head and saw the big clock above his head. His heart tightened and he said loudly: "Be careful!"
Zhong Ling'er was stunned, and quickly realized that Mu Qing was reminding her.
Although she threw out the Xinghua Bell, she was not without means. What should she worry about?
Zhong Ling'er's heart moved slightly, she looked down, and her eyes suddenly opened wide.
A little green snake appeared out of thin air and bit her.
Zhong Ling'er's little face was full of caution. She pointed her fingertip towards the little snake, and the fire dragon next to her rushed forward. The silk scarf on her wrist quickly grew in size and turned into a barrier of flames surrounding her. .
Roar! ! !
When the little green snake saw the fire dragon rushing down, a trace of determination flashed in its vertical pupils, and it transformed a few feet below Zhong Ling'er, and its figure instantly expanded!
Almost at the same time, the figure of the big snake wrapped around Mu Qing collapsed, and the small green snake expanded into the figure of a big snake, opened its bloody mouth, swallowed the fire dragon, and took advantage of the situation to swallow Zhong Ling'er together with the barrier of flame waves. Swallowed into the body together.
The next moment, its figure shrunk and rushed towards the mountain without any hesitation!
