Half a day later, Xue Huan and Baili Hongguang appeared at the bank of the Black River.
After Baili Hongguang's revelation, Xue Huan realized that the old skeleton man who was rowing the boat on the Black River was not always staying in one place, but appeared randomly.
If she didn't know this, she probably wouldn't be able to find him even if she circled the Black River.
But now, with Baili Hongguang, a native of the secret realm, leaking the secret, she went straight to the place where the skeleton old man would appear to guard it.
Baili Hongguang was holding a bucket of popcorn and eating it non-stop.
When she tasted the popcorn, she was astonished. There was such a delicious food in the world! She felt that the past thousands of years had been wasted.
From now on, she will follow Xue Huan and try all the delicacies in the world!
Xue Huan said that her wish is a bit difficult to realize because there are so many delicious foods in the world, and the number is still growing.
While waiting, a bridge suddenly appeared on the Heihe River. The bridge was more than ten meters wide and hundreds of meters long, spanning the entire Heihe River.
"Why did a bridge suddenly appear here?" Xue Huan asked.
When Baili Hongguang saw the bridge, his expression changed and he became alert. "That's not a bridge, it's the tongue of the Candle Dragon."
Xue Huan was shocked. Such a long... tongue? How big could the body be?
"The Candle Dragon is the only being in the underworld that I dare not provoke. It is extremely large, and when it moves, the earth shakes. However, it is usually too lazy to move and just lies there sleeping. If you don't know it, you would think it is a mountain.
"Every time someone comes outside, it wakes up when it smells the fresh human scent. Once it wakes up, it needs to eat, but it's too lazy to eat, so it sticks out its tongue and pretends to be a bridge, lying there waiting for someone to step on it."
Xue Huan: “…”
This hunting method is really unique. Perhaps only Zhulong can use it? After all, no other exotic beast has a tongue as long as its.
After a while, Xue Huan saw two people rushing towards her on a flying sword. Weren't they Xiang Maoyan and Xiao Ziqiong who she had thrown out of the formation before?
These two people are still alive? She thought they had died in the zombie siege.
But think about it, after Baili Hongguang captured her, he retreated with the zombie army, so it is not impossible that the two of them survived by chance.
When enemies meet, they will be jealous of each other. Of course, Xiao Ziqiong only unilaterally regarded Xue Huan as an enemy. Xue Huan just disliked the two of them, but it could not be said that she hated them.
Seeing Xue Huan, Xiang Maoyan was surprised, and Xiao Ziqiong was angry: "You are not dead?"
Wasn’t this woman captured by the Zombie King?
Of course, she heard what the group of people in the formation said. At that time, she was surrounded by a group of zombies and could only take care of herself, so how could she have the mind to pay attention to Xue Huan?
Xiang Maoyan turned his gaze to Baili Hongguang beside Xue Huan and analyzed her situation in his mind.
Taking Baili Hongguang with her, Xue Huan cast an illusion on her to change her appearance in order to avoid panic and misunderstanding. So now Baili Hongguang looked like a beautiful human woman, with her iconic red eyes, pale skin, and sharp purple nails all hidden.
As long as your cultivation level is not much higher than hers, you will not be able to see through her illusions.
Xiang Maoyan is only in the early stage of Jindan, not as good as Xue Huan. How can he see through her illusion?
Xue Huan raised an eyebrow and smiled at Xiao Ziqiong, "Who told you I was dead?"
Xiao Ziqiong: "Fu Xiaoxing and the others said that you were captured by the Zombie King. How could you still be alive? Oh, I know. You are actually dead. Now you are a zombie!"
Being bitten by a zombie, especially a high-level zombie, will only result in being infected with the corpse poison and turning into a zombie. After becoming a zombie, one loses his humanity and becomes a monster that only knows how to drink blood, like a walking corpse. In the eyes of most people, this kind of existence is no different from being dead.
Xue Huan's mouth twitched, and she admired Xiao Ziqiong's imagination very much.
"Yes, I am a zombie now. I am in a good mood and have no desire to drink blood. You should run away quickly. Otherwise, if you are caught by me, I will turn you into the same kind as me."
When she said this, Xiao Ziqiong became suspicious. She looked her up and down and found that she was no different from before and had nothing to do with being a zombie.
Then she realized that Xue Huan was teasing her and said that on purpose.
Xiao Ziqiong glared at her fiercely and stopped talking to her.
Instead, he pulled Xiang Maoyan and said, "Brother Yan, there is a bridge over there. Let's go over there quickly. If we are late, we won't be able to get the good things inside."
The Yellow Springs Secret Realm opens once every ten years, and it has been opened no less than thirty times so far. Every time, many people come in and have already gotten to know the situation in the secret realm. Everyone knows that the good things are located in the inner ring of the secret realm.
Of course, this "big family" is limited to those forces that have Nascent Soul cultivators as their backers. Other forces and families are not qualified to know this information.
There is a barrier between big forces and small forces. To break this barrier is both simple and difficult.
It is simple because everyone knows that it is to produce a Nascent Soul cultivator, but the difficult part is that few people can do it.
Xiang Maoyan was not as reckless as Xiao Ziqiong. He carefully observed the bridge for a while and even threw a talisman over to test it, but the bridge remained motionless and just lay there quietly.
Out of humanitarianism, Xue Huan kindly reminded them, "That bridge is the tongue of the Candle Dragon. You'd better not go up there, or you'll be swallowed up by the Candle Dragon."
Xiao Ziqiong laughed out loud after hearing this. "Even if you want to make up an excuse, make one that's decent. And the Zhulong tongue? Is there any beast in the world with such a long tongue? Besides, this is just a stone bridge. How can it look like a tongue?"
Indeed, the bridge looks like an ordinary bridge. The only unusual thing about it is that it is built over the strange Heihe River.
But this was what Baili Hongguang told Xue Huan, and they had signed an equal contract. Baili Hongguang would never harm her, so Xue Huan believed her words 100%.
As for why the bridge doesn't look like the tongue of a strange beast at all, we have to ask the owner of the tongue - Zhulong. How does she know how it was made?
Xue Huan was just giving a reminder out of humanitarianism. As for whether Xiao Ziqiong and the others believed it or not, she didn't care. Even the King of Hell couldn't control those who were seeking death.
"Brother Yan, this woman is deliberately deceiving us. Let's go." Xiao Ziqiong tried to pull Xiang Maoyan's hand and walked towards the bridge.
