Wei Shiqi climbed up the cliff and walked all the way to the depths of the cave. The walls were wet and dripping with water, the mist was thick, and there was still a bit of requiem scent in the air, which looked like sandalwood but not sandalwood. It was very strange. After walking zigzag for a while, my eyes suddenly opened up, and I saw a hot spring with gurgling water, and unknown flowers and plants growing on the stone walls. The skylight shone in from the hole in the roof of the cave, forming pillars of light, and the water mist entangled, like Dreamlike.
White Snake Spirit did not fall asleep. She sat quietly by the spring, playing with a blue bead with her slender fingers.
"Senior." Wei Shiqi noticed that the green color was not the true color of the beads, but a dense cloud of green smoke locked in the beads. It was obvious that the green smoke emitted by the requiem was collected in the beads by her magical power. , it was not effective.
"What are you doing here again?"
Wei Shiqi didn't hide anything, and said a few words about his thoughts on finding a place to practice. White Snake Spirit was noncommittal and didn't seem to object.
"The two people outside the cave are gone?"
"Yes, it turns out that senior knows they have been here."
"That human-faced dove was clearly being manipulated, so how could it suddenly lose control?"
"This...it's hard to say. Maybe it's because Sun Ergou is not good at practicing skills, maybe it's because the human-faced dove soul is too powerful..." Wei Shiqi couldn't be sure.
"She seems to have been stimulated by something." The white snake spirit's eyes fell on him.
Wei Shiqi thought for a moment and said, "It probably has nothing to do with me. I've seen that human-faced dove before, and there was nothing unusual about it."
White Snake Spirit had no intention of going into details. She threw the bead in her hand to Wei Shiqi, who hurriedly took it in his hand without knowing what was going on.
"The requiem incense is valuable. There are not many in the entire Kunlun Mountains. It would be a pity to waste it. I will give you this requiem bead. Maybe it will be useful."
Wei Shiqi thought to himself, it turned out that White Snake Spirit had been watching their every move from beginning to end, but she just didn't say anything. If she hadn't intervened, she would have quietly waited for Sun and Shang to appear, and then stopped. He drank the requiem incense, gave them a small punishment, and let them go. He thanked him, put away the Soul Requiem Bead, and asked tentatively: "I heard from Sun Ergou of the Pingyuan Sect that the senior swore an oath at the Demon Suppressing Tower to guard Jietian Ridge for Kunlun for eight hundred years, no? Is it okay to harm any monk?"
This sentence aroused the thoughts of the White Snake Spirit. She was dazed, and after a long time she said: "Yes, the four demon kings of Jietian Ridge have all sworn to guard Jietian Ridge for Kunlun. Otherwise, how can the Kunlun sect be willing to let us go?" Get out of the Demon Suppression Tower."
A few words revealed countless secrets, including Yin Yang Ridge, Ghost Gate Abyss, Demon Suppression Tower, and Jie Tian Ridge. There seemed to be a faint line of fate connecting these places together.
Her mood was waning, and she suddenly remembered that Wei Shiqi had told Sun Ergou that when the winter hunting was over, he would go to Guimen Abyss to catch a human-faced dove to compensate him, and asked casually: "Have you been to Guimen Abyss?"
"I've been there, I only fought against human-faced doves, killed a few of them, and then retreated. The Guimenyuan is too dangerous, and with my current strength, I'm not strong enough to protect myself."
"Have you ever found the stone tablet in Yin Yang Ridge?"
"I only saw one. I heard that there are forty stone tablets in Yin Yang Ridge, all over the Ghost Gate Abyss."
"The Yin Yang Ridge Stone Stele is the site of the Tongtian Formation. Tens of thousands of years ago, the demon army entered the human world in large numbers from under the Ghost Gate Abyss. You, the Kunlun Patriarch, set up the Tongtian Formation, captured all the demon leaders in one fell swoop, and imprisoned them in the Demon Clan Tower of Liushi Peak. The dragons were leaderless. , countless monsters died under the Tongtian Formation, and their corpses were all suppressed under the Jietian Ridge. The monster aura did not dissipate, and countless low-level monsters sprouted. Due to the lack of guidance from the clansmen, they relied on instinct to seize the heaven and earth, and the sun The moon essence can only breed demon elixirs at most, but it cannot go any further."
"Those monsters only appeared in the Kunlun Mountains at first, then gradually moved south to the West Minjiang River and east to the Barbarian Bone Forest. In order to prevent them from disturbing the world, the Kunlun Patriarch selected four peaceful monsters from the Demon Suppression Tower, planted heart Gu, and established He vowed to guard Jie Tian Ridge in the name of the Demon King, collect and restrain the monsters, and guard the "hunting ground" for the seven side branches. If nothing happens for eight hundred years, he can regain his freedom, respect him as the Kunlun Elder, and sneak in the mountains behind Liushi Peak. Xiu. This is the only chance to leave the Demon Suppression Tower."
"In addition to me, the Demon King of Jietian Ridge of our generation also has Qingniu, Yuchan, and Chongmingniao. They have been guarding Jietian Ridge for more than seven hundred years. No one wants to fall short. In the past two years, the seven factions have The disciples are getting bolder and bolder!"
Wei Shiqi thought to himself: "Sun Ergou's idea of daring to kill snake eggs must be based on this. Otherwise, how could Qidu let him take the risk? However, I messed up this matter, which can be regarded as Pingyuan's. Pai was so offended."
"Those two disciples of the Pingyuan sect are determined to be evil. There is no guarantee when they will come back. I am too lazy to deal with them. You can just stay here to practice and get rid of them by the way."
"Yes." This is the best of both worlds, and it plays into Wei Shiqi's heart.
White Snake Spirit said lazily: "Okay, that's it, you can go ahead."
Wei Shiqi bowed and retreated slowly.
White Snake Spirit was sitting by the hot spring, stretching out her hand to gently play with the spring water. Her heart was ups and downs, and the past events immersed in her heart were vividly remembered one by one, as if they happened yesterday. After so many years, the past is not like smoke.
