The pear tree on the wall is snowy and delicate

Chapter 72: Dark and foggy, many strange things

Cheng Yu and his party fell into the Firefly Swamp, which was covered with weeds and mud everywhere. There were countless low-lying puddles of water. If one was not careful, one would get stuck in the mud.

What is even more dangerous is that in this dim swamp, fireflies are everywhere, either attached to the grass or flying in the air. Looking around, the dark green light spots are endless and extremely strange. If you walk through them, they will fly up in piles and dazzle your eyes.

It was already difficult to find the way in the dark, and there was a swamp, and the spots of light confused the vision. Cheng Yu and his three companions had to carefully explore with swords. They lost the way several times, and when they wanted to go back, they couldn't find the original way. After going back and forth, no one knew where they were, nor did they know what to do. They just walked numbly.

In fact, Cheng Xi would rather encounter some vicious beasts that he could see and touch. Whether he could defeat them or not was another matter, but at least it would be quick and efficient. His current situation was really like the saying "dragging it out in a muddle", which made people feel irritated and unbearable.

At this moment, the person walking at the end suddenly shouted, scaring the three people in front so much that they almost fell into the mud. The person suddenly sat on the ground, his face full of fear, pointing at the water and trembling, he said:

"Eye...eye...in the water...there's a big eye in the water!"

After hearing this, Cheng Yu and the other two immediately became alert, but when they looked in the direction the man pointed, there was nothing there, only darkness.

"I'm afraid Awei has been bewitched by these fireflies and is seeing an illusion for a moment!" One of them said, and was about to help the person sitting on the ground.

The man sitting on the ground named Awei ignored the person who wanted to help him up. He just stared at the direction of the finger with his eyes wide open. He clearly saw an eye as big as the mouth of a jar open under the firefly. It was definitely not an illusion.

"No! I didn't see it wrong! There was indeed an eye staring at me!" Awei shouted tremblingly.

At this moment, there seemed to be some noise in the water, but it returned to silence in an instant. However, even so, Cheng Yu still heard it. He instinctively felt that there must be something going on here, so he quickly pulled the two people around him to kneel down and gestured to be quiet.

However, there was a dead silence all around, which was eerie.

Just when a few people thought that it might be just the fish and shrimp in the water causing trouble, they saw a large number of fireflies flying up, and the water was also churning.

With the help of the light of fireflies, Cheng Yu looked closely and saw a huge creature swimming in the water. It had a body like a giant snake and scales on its back.

At this moment, there was a long roar, the water surface exploded, and the giant creature in the water jumped out. Its body was like brocade, its claws were like long oars, there were white stripes on its neck, its mouth was long like a crocodile, its eyes were like lamps, and it had short horns on its head.

It turned out to be a giant dragon!
……

I don't know what kind of fate it is. Liu Xia never thought that he would meet Banxia even in the last martial arts performance. This is great. There is only one mystery in each level. Is it possible that he has to compete with four women? This is too ungentlemanly!
The place where Long Qi and his four companions were located was the misty forest in the map of mountains and rivers. The trees here were tall and lush, blocking out the sky and the sun. Only occasionally a few beams of light could fall down and sprinkle on the forest mist. At first glance, it looked like a fairyland.

But in such a dense forest, there was not a single bird song to be heard. The only sound was the sound of people stepping on fallen branches and dead leaves, which frightened Zhao Wuyang so much that he grabbed Xinyi's robe sleeve tightly and refused to let go.

As they were groping, they heard a rustling sound not far away. The four of them quickly drew their swords as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

However, just as the sound was approaching and the four were about to rush forward, they saw a talisman fire coming towards them. It didn't hit anyone, but it scared Zhao Wuyang.

"The one who uses the talisman... is a human..." He whispered in Xinyi's ear.

Xinyi just patted his head and smiled: This silly boy probably doesn't know that some traps can also fly talismans... Talismans? Are there other outer disciples who can use talismans? Unless...

He looked at Long Qi and Liu Xia, and they both understood what was going on. Zhao Wuyang suddenly remembered Banxia, ​​who had practiced with him in Xianyunju. But the fog was too thick, and he couldn't see far. If he really met Banxia, ​​he didn't know whether it would be good or bad.

At this moment, two women's voices were heard from the front:

"Did you hit him? Did you hit him?"

"How would I know? This is my first time using a talisman."

This voice...is indeed hers.

Liu Xia sighed in her heart: This woman is really haunting...

After hearing the voice, Long Qi hurriedly called out to greet them. The forest was thick with fog, and it would be bad if a few more talismans flew over. He knew Banxia, ​​and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a green and foolish man.

When Banxia heard Long Qi calling her, she felt like a fish in water. She hurried over to the sound and shouted, "We are saved! We are saved! Lianqiao, we are saved!"

When the two groups met, they found out that there were only two of them left in Banxia's group, and the other two had long been separated and their whereabouts were unknown.

Banxia was also helpless. They had agreed to travel together as a group of four, but they walked too fast and she couldn't keep up. She was the only one wandering in the fog for a long time. Unexpectedly, she soon met Lianqiao, who also couldn't keep up and was wandering alone.

After hearing her words, Long Qi and the other three were speechless. No wonder the old people always say that birds of a feather flock together. Banxia was so careless, I'm afraid Lianqiao and the two people who got lost were also like this. It seems that they didn't even know that they had lost someone before...

The two men finally saw each other and didn't want to walk any longer. They just planned to leave this damn place when the martial arts performance time came. However, they didn't expect to meet Long Qi and the others again.

Long Qi was a little surprised. The art of talismans was such a difficult thing, and Professor Lingxiang had only been chanting them for three or two days, but Banxia could already fly them. He had been learning for more than half a month and was unable to use the power of talismans. Could it be that Lingxiang deliberately kept it to herself and didn't teach him properly?
In fact, Banxia could only use low-level talismans such as fire talismans for the time being. Last night, she thought that since she had understood the general principle, she might as well try to draw two, which could be regarded as preparation for the martial arts performance. At first, she drew the Speed ​​​​Talisman and the Mother-Child Talisman, but there was no effect at all.

However, she was already very satisfied to be able to use the fire talisman. After all, her own cultivation level was there, and she couldn't be impatient to get the upper hand.

So yesterday she drew a stack of talismans such as fire talismans and wind talismans. Although not every one of them is effective, they are almost as good as expected.

Hmm? Wind Talisman?

Everyone saw Banxia taking out a stack of yellow papers, pinching the wooden seals and trying them one by one, muttering some seals. He looked just like the fake Taoist priest who was cheating people down the mountain, and his appearance was very funny.

Just as Zhao Wuyang was stunned, wondering if this girl was possessed by a demon, he saw Banxia's sleeves fluttering, and in an instant a strong wind blew up, and fallen leaves swirled around her, and soon the surrounding mist was blown away.

The talisman paper in his hand turned into sand, and as the wind dissipated, the talisman finally stopped when all the flying leaves fell.

When Banxia opened her eyes, she saw several people in disheveled clothes. At this time, Lianqiao was tidying up her hair that was blown by the wind and complained loudly:

"Banxia, ​​next time you perform a spell, can't you give me a heads up?"
