Once they reached the bottom of the cliff, it was pitch black. The two brothers who were clinging to the vines were afraid of being hit by the iron chains. They quickly took out the fluorescent stone lighting and saw the iron chains swinging past them quickly. It was indeed thrilling.
Fortunately, the vines seemed to be aware of their existence and swung them away to help them avoid it.
Suddenly, the huge vine elf's lair appeared in their sight, and the retracted vines knocked them away.
Naturally, the two of them couldn't just watch as they bumped into each other. They looked at each other urgently and there was a tacit understanding. They jumped up one after another, each reached out and grabbed an iron chain, and looked down.
The canes carrying people have shrunk back into the nest, and there is an empty hole above the nest. Under the light of the fluorescent stone, it looks like the eyes of a devil. There are many flowers floating under the light of the fluorescent stone. Some are spinning and falling, and some are falling. Into that cave.
The flowers are beautiful, adding some peace to this dark, damp and cold environment.
The feet of the two people hanging on the iron chain were facing the hole of the vine spirit's lair. There were scattered flowers above, which hit the two people from time to time and even touched their faces. The fragrance was endless. It reduced the eerie atmosphere a lot.
Suddenly, the two of them stared down again, and saw changes in the hole, surging and sinking, as if something was unfolding.
It took a while for the two of them to understand what it meant. There seemed to be a ring of steps forming in the cave, which circled deep into the vine spirit's lair.
What's the meaning? The two people hanging on the iron chain looked at each other. Even the steps below were laid out, as if to welcome them.
To go or not to go?
Judging from the series of actions of the vine spirit, it seemed that there was no malicious intention, and he came with a purpose. Yu Qing was the first to let go and jumped down. After dodging several chains, he landed on the vine. The top of the fine lair.
The top has also been paved.
Mu Aotie then landed next to him, and the two of them looked around cautiously.
Without hesitating for a long time, for his own purpose, Yu Qing put one hand on the hilt of the sword and held the glowstone in the other. He stepped forward to the steps and walked down step by step. Mu Aotie followed closely and helped guard the rear.
As they walked, they discovered that the steps were surrounding a huge old vine. The old vine was strong and wet, and its main trunk and some main branches were pierced by iron chains.
The further you go down, the bigger the space becomes, but the iron chains pulling everywhere are still conspicuous, as if you are always reminding outsiders who has the final say here.
The two reached the bottom of the lair. There were still rocks and iron slag on both sides of the ground, but a path of vines lay under their feet, leading to the roots of the huge old vine.
The two of them also followed this road to the foot of the old vines. There was no road ahead and everything was quiet.
Suddenly, a big bulge appeared on the root of the vine, as if something was about to burst out. The two men were alerted to retreat, and they had already drawn their swords.
The bark on the bulge peeled off piece by piece, like an invisible blade carving, and soon the outline of a person was carved out.
The outline gradually gained a nose and eyes, gradually gained color, and slowly turned into a lifelike sculpture. She looked like a woman, with green hair and eyebrows, and a green dress.
Yu Qing and Mu Aotie looked at each other in shock and doubt again. Could it be that this vine spirit can already transform?
After the statue detached itself from the trunk, it opened its eyes. Once the eyes were opened, there was a finishing touch. The whole statue suddenly came alive. A kind-faced woman smiled at them and her hands moved.
She took out a hand behind her back, holding a golden bead in her palm, which was the golden orchid fruit that Yu Qing brought.
At the same time, he also spoke with a gentle voice, "You really came to the Immortal Mansion, and you actually entered Xiaoyunjian."
Upon hearing this, Yu and Mu instantly realized that their previous conversation in front of the illusion of the Immortal Palace had been overheard by the other party, and they also realized that the reason why they were allowed to see the illusion of the Immortal Palace was actually to test them.
Yu Qing immediately realized that this vine spirit was quite scheming and was definitely not as incapable of transformation as Kunlingshan thought, so he immediately asked: "Who are you?"
The woman smiled and said, "Can't you guess who I am?"
Yu Qing: "I only know that you should be related to Jinghua Fairy Garden, but I don't know who you are."
Woman: "It seems you don't know much about this place." Speaking of this, she sighed with a hint of resentment, "I was originally the usher who welcomed guests in front of the Immortal Mansion. Back then, people called me 'Du Niang', I build a flower bridge to pick up and send off all the guests coming and going from the Immortal Mansion. You have seen the flower bridge I built before."
The two brothers looked at each other. They had guessed this before, but they didn't expect it to be true.
Yu Qing looked at the iron chains that were pulling through the Teng Jing's body everywhere, and said puzzledly: "The gatekeeper of the Immortal Mansion must be quite strong, and you have lived for so long. With your strength, Kunling Mountain can lock Will I live with you?"
Du Niang sighed: "If it were me back then, Kunling Mountain would be no problem. However, things in the world are unpredictable. After a drastic change, it can only be a dragon meeting a shrimp in the shallows."
Yu Qing immediately asked: "What drastic change?"
Du Niang shook her head, "I don't know either. I only know that something happened in the Immortal Mansion. No one told me what happened. They only sent someone out to kill me directly."
Behead? Both brothers and sisters were shocked.
Mu Aotie looked her over and asked, "Aren't you still alive and well?"
"Do I look like I'm alive and well? It can only be said that I've come back to life again." Du Niang slowly raised her head and looked up at the sky, with a look of reminiscing and thinking on her face, "Back then, the Immortal didn't give me a reason and suddenly killed me. I really He died, but I don’t know how many years passed, but my spiritual wisdom gradually regained consciousness.
After I woke up, I realized that the entrance to the Immortal Mansion had been sealed, but the seal seemed to have been eroded by something, cracks appeared, and the essence of grass and trees occasionally leaked out. This should be the reason why I was able to wake up again. "
Yu Qing thought of the space crack and asked again: "In other words, the scene of the Immortal Mansion we saw before was not an illusion, but real?"
"It is both an illusion and not an illusion." Du Niang sighed and held up the golden bead in her palm. "It stands to reason that this thing can only be conceived in a place of origin like the Golden Ruins. When mature, it can be gestated into an extremely A rare golden spirit, but unfortunately someone picked it too early and it was destroyed. Even so, it is a rare gold source in the world. It can turn stones into gold. It should be a thing of the immortal family. You guys Did you get the things from 'Xiaoyunjian'?"
Yu and Mu looked at each other again and found that this person was indeed no ordinary person. There was something they had not understood yet. The other party could actually see the origin of this golden bead at a glance, and also knew whose hand had picked it early. It is worthy of the knowledge of being around an immortal.
Yu Qing hummed noncommittally.
Du Niang suddenly frowned again, "No, you can bring this thing here and know the location of the entrance to the Immortal Mansion. How could you not know what the previous illusion was about?"
Yu Qing responded casually, "It's just a partial understanding. Otherwise, how could I not know who you are?"
Du Niang thought about it and nodded slightly. .
Yu Qing was not polite. He still held the sword in his hand and asked her directly, "The entrance to the Immortal Mansion is clearly above, why is it an illusion?"
Du Niang: "I told you, the entrance has been sealed." She gestured to the golden bead in her hand, "If I hadn't lifted this object up, you wouldn't even be able to see the illusion of the entrance."
Yu Qing humbly asked for advice again, "How do you say this? Senior, please clarify."
Du Niang said slowly: "How can ordinary people peep into Fairy Baihua's cave? As you said before, people without immortality can't see it. If you can't find the right angle and direction, you can't see the cave." The entrance. After the entrance is sealed, even if you find the right angle and direction, it will still be invisible. It can also be said to have disappeared from this world.
However, Baihua Fairy's cave is a place of wood flowers. Although the entrance is sealed, it is not a desperate situation that cannot be opened. This golden bead can be used as the key to open it. It should be noted that metal overcomes wood. Once this object is close to the entrance of the cave, under the influence of restraint, the entrance of the cave will appear.
The so-called gold can defeat wood, not all gold objects can make the entrance appear. After all, the access control of Xianjia Cave is extraordinary, how can it be overcome by ordinary gold objects? Only this rare source of gold can make it appear, and only this immortal thing that can turn stone into gold can transform the sealed door here. "
The two brothers and sisters were very surprised when they heard this. They didn't expect that the thing that the fat man Lao Qi took from Jinxu was actually the key to Baihua Fairy's cave. How can this be justified? It was simply beyond my wildest dreams.
Before, they just suspected whether the orchids in Jinxu were related to the orchids here. They just had the attitude of trying to hit the target if there was no date.
Du Niang looked at the golden beads in her hand and sighed again, "If I hadn't noticed that you had this thing on your body, I wouldn't have been able to show up to you, otherwise it would be useless to see you."
Speaking of this, Yu Qing couldn't help but ask: "Senior also wants to return to the Immortal Mansion?"
Du Niang: "Of course I want to go back, but for now, I can't go back. After I was beheaded and woke up, I not only found that the immortal mansion had been sealed, but also that my life soul had been deprived and gone. As for my natal soul, my cultivation is progressing slowly, and I cannot leave this place yet. Otherwise, how can a mere iron chain penetrate it to lock me.
I can sense that my soul should be stored in the Immortal Mansion, so I am willing to help you enter the Immortal Mansion, on the condition that you help me find my natal soul for me. "
Yu Qing hesitated for a moment and then said hesitantly: "It's a good thing to be able to help seniors, but there may be mountain guardian beasts in this immortal mansion, and their strength may not be easily matched by people who break in from the outside."
Du Niang said: "The one guarding it is a 'Queen Bee'. I know its weaknesses. As long as you can help me find my natal soul, I will naturally give you a way to deal with it."
Yu Qing nodded and suddenly asked: "It is said that the Immortal Family has three fairy springs for heaven, earth and man. I wonder if Baihua Fairy has a cave?"
Du Niang was obviously startled for a moment, and then she thought quickly and said, "There are not three fairy springs in the cave here. There seems to be only one. As for the specific spring, I was not well-known at the time and have never seen it. I don't know it yet."
Yu Qing: "Okay, then it's settled. We are willing to help each other with our seniors. However, the Chaoyang Conference is currently being held in Kunling Mountain. We sneaked in as participants. If we are found out after dawn, we will It will cause unnecessary trouble, so we cannot stay for a long time. Let us come back another day."
After saying that, he reached out his hand and made it clear that he wanted the golden beads back in his hands.
However, Du Niang conveniently hid the golden beads behind her back. She seemed to have heard about the Chaoyang Conference here, and said generously: "In that case, let me leave it here for now, and I won't give it to you when I come next time." Late."
In a flash, the two senior fellow apprentices were lifted up by the vine branches under their feet, pushed up directly, and sent off directly.
In the sight of both the guest and the host, each other quickly disappeared into the darkness.
After coming out from the top of the vine spirit's lair, the vines saw the guests off, and then directly sent the two of them to the cliff before shrinking back.
At this time, Yu Qingcai muttered, "There may be something wrong with this old monster."
Mu Aotie was slightly shocked, "How?"
Yu Qing reminded in a low voice: "She said she didn't know what happened in the Immortal Mansion that year. She said she found out that the Immortal Mansion was sealed after she woke up. How could she know that there was a 'Queen Bee' in charge of the Immortal Mansion?"
