Jiang Yuebai looked at Monk Ruosheng suspiciously. This corner was indeed in front of the direction she was going, and it couldn't be said that the other party was following her.
It's just that his appearance was too strange, with no traces before and after. It reminded her of Shen Huaixi's hiding method, and her nerves became tense.
If the wind net could not capture the wind tracks caused by all movements, in her spiritual exploration, the monk would be no more than a rock.
Jiang Yuebai didn't say a word, stepped back to get out of the way, and motioned for him to go by himself.
Ruosheng stood still, his phoenix eyes falling on Jiang Yuebai's pure white mask with no facial features.
"The poor monk remembered that there was a six-winged centipede in the late stage of foundation building in the nest over there. Seeing that the donor came out of there unscathed, the six-winged centipede must have been killed by the donor."
"The benefactor has extraordinary abilities, and the poor monk admires him. However, the poor monk always feels that the benefactor looks familiar. Have you seen the benefactor somewhere?"
Jiang Yuebai remained calm. She had been covering her face since she entered the quicksand area. This monk might be deceiving her.
"Master, what advice do you have?"
Ruosheng has phoenix eyes, a smile, and an eager attitude, "We are destined to meet each other. The donor is willing to go with the poor monk. The depths of this insect nest are full of insect beasts above the foundation stage."
"The poor monk wants to go to the bottom to take something, but there is not enough manpower to catch it. You and I are walking together. Apart from that thing, the other poor monks will not take anything. I would like to take the Buddha's oath."
"Buddha's oath? Is that thing binding on you?" Jiang Yuebai glanced at Ruosheng's red clothes. She had never seen such a charming monk.
If you don't care, "The poor monk was born in a temple and grew up in a temple, and he is a member of the Buddhist sect. The donor cannot discriminate against the poor monk because he likes bright colors. All appearances are false, and if you see things that are not true, Now you will see my Buddha."
Jiang Yuebai adjusted his mask, "You mean your appearance is not your true appearance, because I am not mature enough?"
"Amitabha, the donor is smart. By the way, the poor monk knows a shortcut to reach the underlying underground river faster."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuebai stood up straight and said, "Your words are more convincing than the previous ones."
Zhong Shanhu and Yu Tianlie walked together first, and they might have arrived in front of the Scorpion King earlier, so she had to speed up.
The most valuable person in this insect nest is definitely the Scorpion King.
However, thinking of Mo Baichun's sudden attack on her before, Jiang Yuebai felt a little more defensive.
"You walk in front of me and lead the way. If you can accept it, then set off."
"Amitabha, just follow the donor's request."
After saying that, Ruosheng held the rosary and walked in front to lead the way. Jiang Yuebai secretly took back Xiaolu and followed behind.
After turning a few corners, Ruosheng stopped in front of a rock wall covered with spider webs and threw up the string of beads in his hand.
The golden light turned into several Buddha characters and hit the spider web. There was actually a relatively narrow passage behind it, winding down, and the rustling sounds were so dense that it made people feel numb.
"The road is very steep and there are many scorpions in it. Please be careful where you step."
If Ruosheng stepped into the cave, a large number of ordinary scorpions as big as fists would immediately be frightened and flee.
Ruosheng, like Jiang Yuebai, can see in the dark without lighting. If he encounters a small low-level scorpion, he will kill it with rosary beads and not bother Jiang Yuebai.
But before they could get out a hundred feet, the two of them encountered many child-sized earth scorpions, blocking the narrow passage.
Ruosheng kept killing people in front, and many people appeared behind Jiang Yuebai, making it impossible for the two of them to move forward or retreat.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuebai took out a purple pill bottle, took out a pill and smashed it on the ground.
Purple smoke suddenly filled the air, and the pungent smell caused the surrounding terrain to disperse like a tide.
Ruosheng covered his mouth and nose, "What kind of poisonous smoke is this?"
Jiang Yuebai shook the medicine bottle, "The insect repellent smoke does no harm to the monks, but the smell is a bit pungent. It can drive away the monsters and poisonous insects below the foundation."
Jiang Yuebai got this thing from Xue Liuzhi's alchemy room.
In addition to insect repellent, there is also a powerful insect-attracting incense. She did not dare to use it by herself before, fearing that it would be self-defeating.
Ruosheng continued to walk forward and couldn't help but ask, "The donor doesn't look like a poisonous cultivator. At such a young age, he has the early stage of foundation building and is top-notch in martial arts and spells. Could it be that he is a disciple of a large sect, coming out to practice?"
Jiang Yuebai remained silent and silently alerted her surroundings. She seemed to hear the sound of water flowing. This road could indeed lead to the underground river.
"I wonder if the donor has been to the Vajra Platform in Muyun Domain. I heard that the Vajra Platform is the only remaining Buddhist holy place in the world."
Jiang Yuebai said casually, "It's not like you don't have long legs. The Muyun Territory is just north of the Quicksand Territory, just across the Peacock River, and it's not far away."
"A Peacock River is already very far away. In fact, I don't want to be a monk. It's a pity that I don't have long hair. Alas..."
Jiang Yuebai:…………
Ruosheng didn't say anything more, and the two of them hurried on at full speed relying on insect repellent smoke. After several small battles with near misses, it took more than two hours to reach the end of the passage.
Jiang Yuebai walked up from behind and found that the end of the passage was on the cliff, with a vast underground space and a large lake below.
The lake is clear and green, like a piece of flawless emerald standing quietly in the darkness, which is breathtaking.
What moved Jiang Yuebai's heart the most was a three-foot-tall tree on the small island in the center of the lake.
There are more than a dozen fruits hanging on the tree, green with red, almost ripe but not yet ripe.
Jiang Yuebai squinted and looked over carefully, guessing based on the shape of the trees and leaves.
"Is that a snake sloughing fruit? A snake sloughing fruit that can make a person reborn and regain his vitality. It can save thirty years of hard work of physical training?"
Ruosheng said, "Exactly, this tree has been growing here for thousands of years, and the bottom of the lake is full of corpses of insects and beasts competing for the fruit trees."
Jiang Yuebai looked under the tree and didn't see the fake elixir realm Scorpion King, but it was definitely nearby.
"What do you want to get?" Jiang Yuebai asked.
If the two palms are put together, it is unpredictable, "Buddha said, it cannot be said, the time has not yet come to take the thing. If there is an obstacle in the future, I hope the donor can help."
Jiang Yuebai didn't agree directly. He took out the Zangkong robe and put it on. As long as Ruosheng didn't want the spirit fruit tree, there would be no conflict with her. It was possible to help her depending on his mood.
With his aura gone, Jiang Yuebai spread out the wind net and prepared to sneak over, cut down the tree and carry it back, just to leave a root for the insects and beasts here.
Such a big thousand-year-old spiritual fruit tree must be more powerful than spiritual grass when sucked.
"Donor, please wait!"
Before Jiang Yuebai could move, Ruosheng opened his mouth to stop him, and her wind net also captured the sounds of the fierce battle.
After more than ten breaths, the fierce fighting stopped, and two male cultivators rushed out of a passage below the cliff.
It is Zhong Shanhu and Yu Tianlie!
Jiang Yuebai and Ruosheng hurriedly knelt down and lowered their bodies to observe secretly.
The two walked to the lake and were overjoyed to see the snake-sloughed fruit trees in the distance.
However, the two of them were relatively calm and did not rush to pick fruits. Instead, they carefully explored the lake and its surroundings.
"Is there any trace of the Scorpion King?" Zhong Shanhu, who was in the late stage of foundation building, asked.
Yu Tianlie, who was in the middle stage of foundation building, shook his head, "Could it be that he was seriously injured and died, and his body was swallowed by other insect beasts?"
The two exchanged glances.
"Go to the island."
Yu Tianlie walked in front, and Zhong Shanhu followed behind. After taking two steps, Zhong Shanhu suddenly raised his hand and threw a talisman light at the place where Jiang Yuebai was hiding.
Boom boom boom!
The volley of fire bullets exploded the cliff into pieces in an instant, the fire engulfed the entrance of the cave, and illuminated the underground river a fiery red.
Jiang Yuebai broke through the air and flashed to the lake. He frowned and saw that the broken hair on his forehead was burned and curled, giving off a burnt smell.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, it turns out to be you!" Zhong Shanhu recognized Jiang Yue's black clothes under Zangkong's robe.
Jiang Yuebai stood up and found that Monk Ruosheng was nowhere to be seen, and cursed in his heart.
You ran pretty fast when something happened, and you still want her to help? Help me!
"I had a pleasant time getting along with these two fellow Taoists before. Why are you so rude when we first come up?" Jiang Yuebai asked with a half-smile.
Zhong Shanhu and Yu Tianlie looked at each other, and Yu Tianlie said with a ferocious smile, "I have known for a long time that you are a wealthy sect disciple. Since we meet here, let's keep your life and your magic weapon." !”
As soon as the words fell, the two of them separated in a tacit understanding, one on the left and one on the right, and used all their killing moves towards Jiang Yuebai.
Only then did Jiang Yuebai realize that the two of them were not strangers at all. They must be veterans who pretended to be strangers and mingled with the demon hunting team, waiting for opportunities to kill people and seize treasures!
