"Wait a moment, I've got something good for you!" Hei Xiazi turned around and took out an unlit torch from his bag and handed it to Jie Yuchen.
"What era is this? You still use this kind of thing?"
"Ah~ You don't understand, traditional wisdom illuminates your beauty!"
Xie Yuchen took the torch and lit it with a lighter, which was indeed much more efficient. Then they found that a sharp thorn had been roasted by someone.
"It seems that someone used the same method as us..." Xie Yuchen thought.
"Okay, stop studying it. I guess it's the Third Master." Hei Xiazi handed Xie Yuchen a backpack and said, "Everything is packed, let's go."
After walking a few steps forward, they came to a stone door. Hei Xia Zi pushed hard and the stone door opened. As soon as the two stepped into the stone chamber, the door closed quickly.
This stone chamber is surrounded by stone statues of blue birds, which are mysterious and sacred. As soon as the two walked to the middle of the stone chamber, hidden weapons flew out from both sides of the stone wall. Then, the stone wall suddenly lit up, and the flashlight in Xie Yuchen's hand was knocked down by the hidden weapon. It was the boomerang they encountered at the beginning.
"careful!"
Seeing the boomerang flying towards Jie Yuchen, Hei Xiazi grabbed Jie Yuchen's arm and pulled him aside. Jie Yuchen had to close his eyes because of the severe reflection of the zircon on the stone wall.
Hei Xia Zi took Jie Yuchen to avoid the endless hidden weapons, and with a "bang" he pressed Jie Yuchen to the ground.
"You did this on purpose, didn't you?" Xie Yuchen asked.
"Saving your life is the most important thing at the critical moment!" Hei Xia Zi said as he looked around.
"The zircons in this stone chamber are reflecting each other, making it hard to open your eyes," said Xie Yuchen.
Black Blind Man seemed to have thought of something, turned around and asked, "Do you want those sunglasses? I'm such a kind person, I'll sell them to you for 800!"
"No."
Xie Yuchen pulled out a handkerchief from his sleeve and tied it around his eyes, then pulled out a stick from behind and attacked forward.
The last blow landed on Hei Xia Zi's body. Hei Xia Zi took a deep breath and said, "You did it on purpose!"
"No, there are many kinds of stick techniques. The one I just used is called the Dog Beating Stick Technique." Xie Yuchen pretended to be innocent.
"Isn't it insulting to say that..."
"Dogs are great, they are good friends of humans!" Xie Yuchen said with a smile.
…
After moving the rubble in a few seconds, a hole was revealed that was barely big enough to fit through. The fat man looked at the hole in front of him, measured it with his hand, and fell into deep thought.
"I think... I might have to find another entrance."
Ji Huaichuan smiled and said, "Don't panic, Fatty. I'll help you later!"
The fat man looked at Ji Huaichuan suspiciously. The boy had a wicked smile on his face, and it was obvious that he had no good intentions. He asked, "Are you reliable?"
Ji Huaichuan said seriously: "Of course, no one is more reliable than me. If you don't believe me, ask my brother."
The fat man looked at Zhang Qiling, seeking an answer. Zhang Qiling silently turned his head to the side, and nodded only after he could no longer see the fat man's sincere eyes.
"Don't worry, Fatty. Xiao Chuan'er is absolutely reliable!" Wuxie promised, and Pan Zi also responded.
The fat man thought about the time when Ji Huaichuan treated Wuxie. He looked like a big boss when he slashed the knife with his hands. He nodded with confidence and said with a big hand: "Okay, then I will hand over the most precious thing in my body to you!"
Ji Huaichuan smiled with satisfaction, "Then you guys go ahead, Fatty and I will cover your retreat."
"be safe"
Zhang Qiling seemed to know what Ji Huaichuan was going to do, but he didn't stop him. He was the first to cross the rubble and reach the other side.
"Xiao Chuan'er, how are you going to help me later?" the fat man asked curiously.
Ji Huaichuan shook his head mysteriously and said softly, "As the Buddha said, we will know when the time comes."
The fat man frowned, "Is this what the Buddha said?"
Ji Huaichuan waved his hand, "It's not important."
Seeing Ji Huaichuan like this, the fat man felt a little nervous. His sixth sense told him that something might happen, but he still believed Ji Huaichuan. After all, Wuxie and Xiaoge said that it shouldn't be wrong.
Everyone else had gone over, and Fatty followed suit. Just as he stuck his head in, he heard Ji Huaichuan shouting from behind him, "Brother Fatty, hurry up! Suddenly, a swarm of snakes came!"
The fat man looked back hurriedly and saw a large group of snakes behind him, which looked poisonous!
"Where do all these snakes come from?"
The fat man put all his strength into drilling to the other side of the cave. Wuxie, who had entered first, also pulled him over. The whole process took less than a minute, and the fat man drilled through. Then, Ji Huaichuan slowly came over.
The fat man sat on the ground and gasped, "What kind of a hell of a place is this? Why are there so many snakes? Quick! Seal the hole!"
"No need, those snakes left long ago."
Ji Huaichuan walked behind Zhang Qiling with his hands in his pockets, without any of the panic he had just shown outside.
The fat man reacted, "Xiao Chuan'er, you are too mean! If I wasn't here, I would have held you down..."
Wu Xie covered his mouth with his hand halfway through his words, and then he heard Wu Xie say, "Fatty, even if the young man wasn't here, you still couldn't beat him."
"Me! I... okay." The fat man curled his lips and gave up the idea.
After the joke ended, everyone took a closer look at the scene behind the rubble.
Directly opposite them was a statue of a human-faced bird, with vines and moss entwined on the statue. Ji Huaichuan took a closer look and found that it was from the batch raised by Yao Qiong. It was very ferocious and could eat people, but was always bullied by the group of red-haired birds he raised.
"Why does that thing look so familiar?" asked the fat man.
"It's a human-faced bird, but it looks a little smaller than the living ones we met up there... There are human-faced birds in both Tamutu and Yunding Palace. It seems that the Queen Mother of the West has a close connection with the one in Yunding Palace..." Wuxie guessed.
After hearing Wuxie's guess, Ji Huaichuan hid behind Zhang Qiling without leaving a trace. He had never heard that Wuxie was so good at guessing, and he even guessed it right!
"No! Not only Yunding Palace, there are other places marked in Chen Wenjing's notes, but those places are all on the dragon veins, only Tamutuo is independent." Wuxie continued.
The fat man seemed to be thinking, "Could it be that the places marked by Chen Wenjing are all places closely related to the Queen Mother of the West?
This human-faced bird might be a local specialty of this place, and every time the Queen Mother of the West meets new friends, she gives some to them as a gift!"
The fat man's words became more and more outrageous, and Ji Huaichuan felt more and more guilty the more he listened. What kind of person is this? He can even guess this! As if sensing Ji Huaichuan's uneasiness, Zhang Qiling silently held his hand and tightened it. This simple action calmed Ji Huaichuan down.
"If that's the case, then we have to be careful. This thing is not easy to deal with." Pan Zi said.
As soon as Pan Zi finished speaking, the statue suddenly shook and fell off a few small pieces. Ji Huaichuan tilted his head, slowly approached the statue, and gently opened a crack with his hand, revealing a feather.
"Xiaochuan, be careful!" It was Wuxie's voice.
