"here……"
Chen Xuejiao looked around. Apart from trees and vines, there were only snakes, insects, rats, and ants. It didn't look like the cave of True Saint Dongxu.
"There is an underground passage. After I came out last time, in order not to be discovered by others, I re-covered it with some dead branches and leaves."
Tang Qian lowered his head and began to search carefully. In order not to be discovered, he didn't even mark it, so he could only rely on memory to search inch by inch in the general direction.
Zhuzhu and Chen Xuejiao lowered their heads to search with him. After a while, Chen Xuejiao's feet were empty, revealing a dark passage.
"This is it."
Tang Qian hurried over and peeled off the leaves, pointed to the bottomless passage below and said, "I will lead the way, you follow me."
After that, Tang Qian jumped down, followed closely by Zhuzhu and the other two people, who jumped down the passage.
There were bumpy and raised stones or mud on both sides of the passage. With the help of these two things, the three of them controlled their bodies and descended bit by bit, so as not to be injured like Tang Qian's first time here.
After walking for more than an hour, I finally reached the end and stood in a cave.
Tang Qian took out the luminous stone and walked forward according to the path under his feet. After walking for more than two miles, he saw a vermilion door and an endless white wall.
A plaque with the words "Youlanju" hangs above the gate.
From the moment they walked here, Zhuzhu and the two found that everything basically matched what Brother Tang said.
There was no longer any doubt about him.
Tang Qian opened the door and led them into the first courtyard of Youlan Residence.
The first thing I saw was a large screen wall. Through the screen wall was a stream that spanned the courtyard.
Above the creek is a beautifully arched stone bridge carved with many flowers, birds, fish and insects. Across the stone bridge is a rockery stone forest with many wild orchids.
Tang Qian led the two of them through the stone forest to a vermilion door.
"This is the second courtyard entrance gate of [Youlan Residence]. I stopped here last time."
Tang Qian pointed to the door and said, "Senior Luolan's Taoist name is Landie, also known as True Sage Landie. True Sage Landie has only been obsessed with raising orchids and practicing cultivation in his life, and he hates men the most. Because in his early years, he was too beautiful because of his appearance. He was forced to lose his virginity by a Jindan master. Later, Zhensheng Landie became stronger step by step and killed the Jindan master, and then went to sea to Butterfly Island, which was relatively desolate at the time.
She wanted to live in seclusion here for the rest of her life, but she found out that she was pregnant with her enemy's child, and that the child was still a hidden fetus. She didn't know it until she was too fierce in a fight with others and had fetal gas.
At this time, the fetus had been in her body for two years. Not only had it taken shape, but the uterus and pubic area were almost integrated.
If she aborts the fetus, her Dantian will also be severely damaged and she will most likely lose her cultivation.
Lan Die Zhensheng had no choice but to grit his teeth and use spiritual energy to promote the growth of the fetus every day, and at the same time peel off the uterus bit by bit.
She finally succeeded in conceiving after another three years and gave birth to a daughter at the same time.
Fortunately, she was a daughter. True Sage Landie refused to kill her, so he had to raise her while building Roland City.
It was also during this process of raising children and building Luolan City that Zhensheng Lan Die became more and more open-minded, and successfully gave birth to a baby in his epiphany.
And the Luo family gradually blossomed in the hands of her daughter, becoming the only aristocratic family in Luolan City. "
I didn’t expect that the past of True Saint Landie would be so bumpy, but she was considered a strange woman. Not only did she build Luolan City, one of the largest cities in Tianyuan Continent, but she also raised her daughter by herself. Mother and daughter took care of the Luo family. It developed into the largest aristocratic family on Butterfly Island.
What impressed Zhuzhu and Chen Xuejiao the most was that after being bullied and forced to surrender to survive, she was able to become stronger step by step in this desperate environment and kill the man who bullied her.
It can be seen how strong the mentality of True Saint Landie is, and he can also raise the child born from the union with that man.
Whether it is from the open-minded attitude or the perseverance of character, Lan Die Zhensheng can indeed be called a hero among women.
"But Brother Tang told us this?"
Zhuzhu and the two looked at him.
Tang Qian scratched his head in embarrassment: "Sage Landie once said that although she does not hate all men in the world, she has been hurt by men after all, so no man is allowed to set foot in her cave. I'm afraid it's because of the man's identity. You can't enter the second inner courtyard door, but it shouldn't be a problem since you two are women, so the rest of the adventure will depend on you."
Zhuzhu and Zhuzhu understood why True Sage Landie hated men so much, but before leaving, Zhuzhu gave Tang Qian a seven-day detoxification pill: "I don't know if we can come out within five days, so I'd better give the detoxification pill to Tang Qian." Give Dan to Brother Tang in advance."
Tang Qian was very moved after receiving the seven-day poison elixir: "If you don't come out within five days, my eldest brother will risk his life to break in and rescue you."
"If the two of us really can't get out, it means it's really dangerous inside. It's better for Brother Tang to leave here quickly." Chen Xuejiao joked with a smile.
"Bah, bah, bah," Tang Qian spat three times immediately, "Don't say such unlucky words. I believe that the two girls are lucky."
Zhuzhu and Chen Xuejiao said goodbye to Tang Qian, and stretched out their hands to push towards the door. The door did not move at all, but a line of words suddenly appeared on the plaque above: "Who is coming?"
Zhuzhu and Zhu were stunned for a moment, but they quickly realized that they must have triggered a formation or mechanism when they pushed the door.
Zhuzhu cleared her throat and stepped forward: "I am Ni Sizhu, a disciple of Tianyun Sect, and this is my senior sister Chen Xuejiao."
Soon the words on the plaque faded away, and then there was a crisp sound, and the vermilion door opened.
However, there were two corridors, one on the left and one on the right. On one side there were flowers blooming like birds chirping and the fragrance of flowers, while on the other side it was covered with snow and silver.
The font of the plaque above appears again: "Each person chooses a corridor."
Zhuzhu and Jiaojiao looked at each other and seemed to be separated.
Based on her ice spiritual roots, Zhuzhu chose the corridor on the right where the silver-clad trees were wrapped, and Chen Xuejiao chose the corridor on the left where the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant.
When they stepped onto the corridor of their choice, the door behind them closed again with a "snap".
There is no retreat behind us, we can only explore forward.
Zhuzhu walked forward with firm steps, admiring the scenery on both sides of the corridor as she walked.
Although it is covered with silver trees, you can still vaguely see the surrounding flowers, trees, pavilions and rockeries.
If the heavy snow melts away, the courtyard scenery will be very beautiful.
Gradually, the snow covering the surrounding scenery became thicker and thicker, and even Zhuzhu in the corridor felt cold.
It's not just the cold climate, but also the lonely and desolate coldness when she is the only one left between heaven and earth.
A sad emotion gradually came to her heart. Zhuzhu couldn't help but think of herself in a different world and wanted to blend in. However, in countless midnight dreams, she felt that everything here was unrealistic and always incompatible with it...
