Looking at the wet ground, Jing Yue and Ye Ning hesitated for a moment.
However, after being a saint for so many years, Ye Ning was not an indecisive character and quickly decided to continue in depth.
If Lin Shi and the others can come here, so can the people from Southern Xinjiang.
This time when the Lingxu opens, Nanjiang Kingdom takes the absolute initiative. Even if they cannot get the treasure, they cannot let it fall into the hands of Nanjiang Kingdom.
Ye Ning couldn't care what happened to the Qiguo, she only knew that the legendary White Emperor's treasure fell into the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom, and the hometown she had been guarding would definitely be bloodbathed.
Growing up, Ye Ning saw with her own eyes how her parents led everyone to build and improve a town so that more people could live and work in peace and contentment.
There are many hardships involved, but there is also a sense of accomplishment.
The Taichu Sect has a very deep foundation in Shu, and the people's feelings towards the Taichu Sect are definitely better than those of the imperial court and the emperor who is far away.
Ye Ning also likes this place very much, not only because she is a saint beloved by thousands of people, but also because she likes this kind of life.
When she is alone, she likes to look at the smoke from cooking fires filling this deep land. She always feels peaceful when she thinks that the smell of fireworks is related to her.
This feeling cannot be given anywhere else, because this is her home and hometown.
Ye Ning is not a hypocritical person. Originally, she felt a little guilty about Jing Yue for being dragged into the water, but this guy kept calling his wife, so she didn't have any psychological burden.
If you call me wife, you are the son-in-law in the church. It is very reasonable for a son-in-law to do something for his mother's family.
So the two of them continued to follow these watermarks.
Ahead, due to the squeeze of the mountain wall, the originally wide stone path has become much narrower, like an alley.
Although this land has gone through the baptism of time, it has long lost its original appearance. However, the mottled red walls and broken animal sculptures on the eaves can vaguely reveal the grand scene of the ancient Shu palace.
Ahead, a rockery lies halfway along the road.
The rockery was full of holes, which made Jing Yue and Ye Ning more vigilant, because it always gave people the illusion that there were malicious eyes hidden behind them.
Until they walked past the rockery, nothing happened and no eyes were tracked.
It seems that I am worrying too much.
Just as Jing Yue and Ye Ning were about to focus on the road behind them, a man suddenly broke into their sight.
This man was wearing a black official robe and a square scarf on his head, just like an official from the ancient Shu Kingdom.
He was originally nestled in the corner, but now he suddenly jumped out, which shocked Jing Yue and Ye Ning.
His whole face was already dark blue, just like the zombies in the zombie movies Jing Yue had watched. When he spoke, his voice was even more terrifying.
"Go to court, go, go to court."
His voice was extremely thick, as if his mouth was full of something.
The next moment, Jing Yue and Ye Ning really saw wet silk in his open mouth.
His eyes were protruding and he looked very serious. He was about to pull the two of them to "go to court." Jing Yue was extremely frightened at that time. With a sweep of the broad sword in his hand, the official's head flew straight out and rolled down like a watermelon. Go aside.
And his body didn't move.
Jing Yue just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but the next moment, he suddenly stepped back.
Because there was a small head drilled out of the official's clothes.
The head is white, fat and covered with wrinkles. At first glance, it looks like a silkworm, but it turns out it has a human face.
Its facial features and folds are connected together, so it looks particularly sinister.
After seeing Jing Yue and Ye Ning, the human-faced silkworm couldn't help but laugh, and said in a crazy voice: "Born to a new life, to a new life, finally to the next life."
With a click, its sound suddenly stopped as a blue spear penetrated its mouth.
It has to be said that the sound it just made seemed to be performing some kind of ritual, or some kind of curse, which made people jump with fear, so Ye Ning forcibly interrupted it.
As a result, even though its mouth was pierced, it still said the last half of the sentence - "You old cunt".
Lao Yin, I really can't hear it, because it has lost its vitality.
As soon as Ye Ning's gun was raised, the silkworm's body was lifted out, and the body of the headless official was torn to the ground.
The silkworm's corpse was nearly half a foot long. The reason why it emerged from the official's chest was because there was a hole in the official's heart, and its body was stuck inside.
Judging from the official's corpse, the silkworm must have grown in the heart, or at least the silkworm body penetrated the heart.
It has to be said that in this dim environment, this official who has lived for an unknown number of years is not very powerful, but he is also really scary.
After walking through this narrow passage, the scene in front of me suddenly became wider.
A piece of water appeared in their sight.
The water is green and the depth cannot be seen clearly, but at the end of the water is a magnificent palace.
That should be the Jinluan Palace of the previous dynasty.
The entire temple left a reflection in the water, but it gave people a particularly weird feeling.
Because the Jinluan Palace is not just a style, its lower half was originally in the style of a royal palace, but the upper half was engraved with Bagua reliefs, yin and yang fish, Buddha statues, and even several bronze coffins inserted upside down above the eaves.
At first glance, it looks like Taoism, Buddhism, royalty, and things related to burying the dead are all integrated into one, giving people a sense of being out of place.
But it is not chaotic, because at a glance, you will still feel that it is a magnificent palace.
The next moment, Ye Ning suddenly pulled Jing Yue and hid back in the alley.
Because at this time, many footsteps suddenly appeared in the distance.
Some people came, quite a few.
The feet of these people stepped into the water and made a sound.
After that, Jing Yue and Ye Ning saw the crowd.
It was a group of officials in official regalia, holding memorials in their hands, and they looked very similar to the one they had just killed.
They walked step by step towards the location of the Jinluan Palace, unable to see their faces clearly.
My dear, do you really want to go to court?
If they want to get close to the White Emperor's secret treasure, they cannot let go of the Jinluan Palace.
But as the crowd grew larger and larger, including officials and sergeants in armor, Jing Yue and Ye Ning gradually gave up their impulse.
Too much.
From time to time, silkworms with human faces would emerge from the lapels of these officials and sergeants.
These silkworms looked around like sentinels, forcing Jing Yue and Ye Ning to breathe lightly at the same time and blend into the wall behind them.
Yes, even though they had easily killed the official before, Jing Yue and Ye Ning still instinctively felt danger after seeing these things.
Not just because there are more of them, but also because they have an intimidating quality about them.
At this moment, a burst of suona sounded in the spirit ruins, pushing the horror in the room to a climax.
After the officials and soldiers, a group of Taoists appeared in Baidi Lingxu.
The Taoists were dressed in yellow robes and crowns. The ones in the front were playing the suona to their heart's content, while the ones in the back were carrying a big stone.
Seeing this big stone, Jing Yue's eyes suddenly turned red.
Five Elements Jade?
The Master's Five Elements Jade Bed did not stay with Jing Yue for a long time, but Jing Yue should never forget it.
Because it once gave him hope, and it also contained the fire inheritance learned by his master.
After being forced to destroy the jade bed, if Jing Yue still wanted to get a second jade bed, he could only focus on Zhang Chuyi.
If the life of Zhang Chuyi's jade bed has not ended and it has not completely collapsed, then he can use it to save it. So for a long time, Jing Yue was "overestimating his own capabilities" and thinking about how to defeat the weak with the strong. , kill Zhang Chuyi.
But who would have thought that there is a jade embryo of Five Elements Jade in the Baidi Lingxu.
He could recognize the material of this jade at a glance.
If he could get this jade embryo, he probably wouldn't be able to make a jade bed on the scale of Master Jiang, but he should be able to make a simple version.
That way, maybe we can continue to live in peace for many more years.
But in the current situation, trying to grab this jade may cause danger.
As a result, Jingyue's breathing became a little heavier involuntarily.
Ye Ning noticed this and couldn't help but use the "Mo Chi" in her consciousness to communicate with Jing Yue: "What's wrong with you?"
Jing Yue blinked, his greedy eyes regained clarity, and replied: "That piece of jade carried by the Taoist priest might be able to cure my poison."
Ye Ning suddenly became more excited than Jing Yue and replied: "Why don't you grab it?"
At this time, the team has entered the central area of the water. The shadows of these "people" are reflected under the water, and the water and the water are like two worlds.
"Wait a minute." Jing Yue was afraid that his wife would be impulsive, so he quickly reminded her.
As a result, at this time, the Jinluan Palace in the distance had already changed.
Strips of white things stretched out from the temple and swayed.
Jing Yue and Ye Ning recognized it at a glance. It was the body of a big silkworm, and there were quite a few.
This kind of giant silkworm seemed to be much larger than the silkworms that lived on these people's bodies. If the silkworms that chased them in Caohai before were the size of dragons, then the ones that emerged from the Jinluan Palace were dragons.
Their bodies were squirming inside and outside the palace, and there were countless of them. Looking from a distance, the entire palace looked like living creatures, which looked particularly scary.
If the jade was sent there, it would probably be more difficult to get.
Ye Ning glanced at Jing Yue, said "Grab!", and ran out like a fleeting shadow.
Jing Yue saw this and followed closely behind.
Damn, why are you more active than me in grabbing things?
Almost at the same time, the fog outside Baidi's Spiritual Ruins dissipated, revealing the scene inside and outside the valley.
Only then did the eldest and second young ladies see what was at the other end of the valley.
Thousands of people were crowding in the forest on the other side of the valley. Several particularly tall figures were there. Even though they were so far apart, they still gave people a strong sense of oppression.
Those should be the poisonous generals of the Southern Border Kingdom, monsters raised by poisonous substances. The magical powers they have learned are naturally related to poison. The weakest ones are at the peak of the minor magical power realm, and the stronger ones are naturally the well-deserved great magical power poison cultivators.
The three of them, the eldest lady, had encountered one of the poisonous generals before. If Chen Ruxue hadn't grabbed them and used a hundred-mile buckle, and rushed hundreds of miles through the backlash formation inside the buckle, they might have been dragged down. And then fell into this thousands of troops.
If their mother hadn't been here, they wouldn't have even dared to get so close.
Nanjiang Kingdom brought thousands of troops, siege crossbows, and so many poisonous generals there. The entrance to Lingxu was completely controlled and even surrounded by an iron barrel.
Even if Jing Yue and the others could come out, the iron barrel would hold them to death.
It has to be said that Nanjiang Kingdom not only came prepared this time, but was also very willing to invest.
Nanjiang Kingdom and Qi Kingdom have been in constant friction, but they haven't had such a big battle for many years.
Qi Guo needs to mobilize the corresponding troops, which will take at least five days, but nothing can go wrong.
One after another, people from the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom descended into the Lingxu. Jing Yue and Ye Ning were very likely to face a situation where they could not support themselves, and the situation became extremely difficult.
When the second young lady saw this, she couldn't help but said: "Mom, what should we do if we want to go on?"
Mrs. Mu looked at the formation on the opposite side and said, "At this time, if your brain is not flooded, you will never think about it."
Mrs. Mu could see clearly that no matter who got the White Emperor's secret treasure, as long as they couldn't activate it on the spot, their side would be the loser.
Because the entrance has been sealed, it is difficult to break out of the siege. Even if she is in it, it will be difficult to escape.
The eldest lady turned pale and said, "But Ah Duan is inside."
"You're just thinking of committing suicide while he's in there? I really don't understand why he's joining in the fun." Mrs. Mu frowned and said.
At this time, the sisters Mu Qingshuang and Mu Qingqian stopped talking.
You can't tell your mother that this guy went in just to chase Saint Ye Ning, right?
Mrs. Mu looked at the situation and secretly analyzed: "This time Qiguo was so passive, it was all because of the Lingxu secret key. How could this key be in the hands of the people of Southern Xinjiang?"
She remembered that the key should be controlled by people from Qiguo.
"If you really want to save him, it depends on whether he has good luck and comes out first. But it's not enough for us people to help break through and rescue him."
Seeing that the two sisters were still looking at her, Mrs. Mu couldn't help but said angrily: "Yes, even your mother's life is not enough."
This elbow is crooked. Are you worried that I won't give my full strength?
Yes, something happened unexpectedly, and too few people came to pray for the country.
"Madam is well."
At this time, a man and a woman walked out of the woods behind them.
The man has a beard, but his facial features are very delicate. The woman next to him is dressed in green and has a gentle temperament.
When Mrs. Mu saw the man, she raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "You lunatic didn't come too late."
The man cupped his hands and said, "My little brother is still down there, so hurry up, but Madam is as fast as thunder."
Mrs. Mu couldn't help but ask: "Isn't your little brother also called Duan Yu?"
The man responded: "What a coincidence, now my name is Duan Yu."
Next to him, the gentle woman looked at the situation in the valley and said, "Dad, I feel like there is no hope of salvation. The body may not even be recovered."
The visitors were naturally Gu Qingchi and Gu Caiwei, the father and daughter from Kaiyang Academy of Taichu Sect.
Gu Qingchi couldn't help but said angrily: "Don't say anything depressing. Even a dead horse has to be treated as a living horse doctor. This kid can't leave before me. If this is the case, I will really be blind this time."
