An alchemy furnace fell from the sky

Chapter 187 Giant Scorpion in Quicksand

Xu Fu followed Shi Bu and climbed into the secret passage at the bottom of the well.

This secret passage is so narrow and short that even if you bend down, you can't get through it. You can only kneel on the ground and crawl forward. Even so, you can barely pass through some narrow places.

Looking at the old man lying in front of him, Xu Fu was very curious. Where did this secret passage lead to? It was worthy of this old man.

The two of them climbed forward and backward for a full amount of time. After passing several forks, Shi Bu Zhuan finally stopped.

The front of the passage was blocked by a stone, and it looked like a dead end.

He saw Shi Buhuan grabbing the crack in the stone with his hand and pushing it aside, and immediately a faint light shone in.

Being illuminated by this glimmer of light, Xu Fu only felt his body sink and he almost fell to the ground. For some reason, his hands, feet and body suddenly became very heavy. It took a lot of effort to climb out of the last few feet.

"How is this going?"

After coming out, Xu Fu kept twisting his body, but he couldn't get rid of this heavy feeling.

"It's okay, it will be fine after a while." Shi Buzhuan seemed to be unable to feel it. Looking at Xu Fu's appearance, he smiled slightly and said: "Everything here is heavier than outside. A pound of stone, It’s worth ten pounds outside. You’re standing here, just carrying ten people your size on your back. That’s right. Ordinary people can’t stand up when they get here. If you hadn’t received my punch, , I won’t even bring you here.”

Xu Fu sighed in his heart, "The world is so vast and full of wonders." He no longer struggled. While breathing in and out to adapt to the weight of his body, he began to look around, frowning deeper and deeper.

In front of us is a huge underground cave, almost six or seven feet high, with no boundaries visible. There are some unknown rocks on the top of the head, emitting light yellow light of different shades. Other than that, there is nothing special about the entire cave.

"Old man, what is this place? Why did you bring me here?" Xu Fu asked.

"This is the place with the most abundant earth element spiritual energy in the world. Quickly see if the... earth element spirit treasure you want is here?" Shi Bujuan extinguished the fire seal in his hand and said in a hurry.

Xu Fu was stunned when he heard this, and quickly glanced into his arms, the expression on his face immediately turned into surprise.

The four great spiritual treasures were now exuding a rich brilliance, completely different from their previous appearance.

"It's right here!" Xu Fu exclaimed happily.

Shi Bujuan breathed a long sigh of relief, with a relieved smile on his face.

Xu Fu didn't care about anything else at this time. He took out the four spiritual treasures, held them in his hands, and started walking around to look for them.

"do not move!"

Shi Bujuan suddenly shouted, which startled Xu Fu. He stood on the spot, not daring to put his raised feet down.

Shi Buhuan raised his hand and threw a stone in front of Xu Fu. The originally flat ground immediately turned into quicksand, slowly "devouring" the stone.

Xu Fu was shocked. He was just one step away from stepping into the quicksand.

"This is called 'throwing stones to ask for directions'. Throw two more stones before walking." Shi Bujuan reminded. After that, he also picked up two stones and rubbed them in his hands.

Fortunately, there were a lot of stones in the cave. Xu Fu quickly picked up a small pile. If he couldn't hold it, he carried it in his clothes. If he wanted to go there, he threw a few stones first.

According to the subtle changes in light and shade of the four spiritual treasures, Xu Fu quickly determined the direction of the earth-moving spiritual treasure, and then concentrated on throwing stones and walking forward.

He had just walked a dozen feet when suddenly there was a sound of breaking wind behind him, and then his feet shook slightly, and a stone hit his feet.

Xu Fu was startled. When he lowered his head, he discovered that a palm-sized black scorpion had crawled to his feet at some point. Thanks to the timely arrival of the stone, the scorpion would have crawled to his feet if it had been a little later.

Looking at Shi Bu Zhuan not far away, who was squatting to pick stones again, Xu Fu smiled knowingly, turned around and continued walking forward with the four spiritual treasures. But this time he was a lot more cautious. In fact, as long as he calmed down and listened carefully, he could still hear a few subtle sounds of sand.

Xu Fu's shots were like lightning, and the flying stones from his hands did not miss. In a short time, he also killed several black scorpions.

"I don't know what they ate to grow up."

Seeing that there were quite a few scorpions, Xu Fu also murmured in his heart. There is nothing but sand and stones in this cave. Could it be that these are spiritual insects that can be missed by relying only on spiritual power?

Xu Fu was listening intently to what was going on around him, when suddenly there was a "squeaking" sound. Following the sound, he saw a fat mouse emerging from a crack in a stone.

The mouse seemed to have seen Xu Fu, and after getting out, it ran away. Unfortunately, it was also affected by the heavy body, and its movements were quite slow. After running less than a foot away, its legs and claws sank into a quicksand.

I saw a sudden surge in the quicksand, and three black scorpions suddenly emerged, and the scorpion tails stabbed directly into the mouse.

The mouse only struggled twice and then stopped moving. The three scorpions scrambled to drag the mouse into the quicksand. There was no trace left on the quicksand.

It only took a few breaths, but Xu Fu's scalp was numb. Everyone said that the scorpion tail needle was the sharpest and hardest, the nemesis of "copper skin and iron bones". He didn't know if he could resist it. But even if he could bear it, Xu Fu shuddered unconsciously when he thought of the black scorpions crawling on his body.

Xu Fu shook his head and his eyes became firm again. After going through so many hardships to find this place, he naturally wouldn't back down just because of a few scorpions here. Seeing the brilliance of the Lingbao in his hand getting brighter and brighter, Xu Fu's steps became more determined.

"Can't go anymore."

Shi Bu Zhuan's voice came from behind Xu Fu.

Just as the sound of the stone not turning came out, Xu Fu had already stopped. He had actually discovered that the stones thrown forward, left, and right just now, without exception, all fell into the quicksand. The path he took It's over.

"Is it in here?"

Xu Fu looked at the seemingly peaceful open space in front of him and sighed helplessly.

Xu Fu first squatted down and started poking the ground in front of him with his hand.

After just two pokes, he hit the quicksand. Xu Fu felt as if his fingers were being sucked by an inexplicable force, pulling him down.

Xu Fu quickly pulled his hand back, wondering if he could escape if he jumped into the quicksand.

"Old Master, what's down here?" Xu Fu turned to ask Shi BuTuan not far behind him.

Shi Bujuan saw that Xu Fu had not found the spiritual treasure he was looking for even at the end of the road. His face had long lost its previous ease. When Xu Fu asked, he was slightly startled. He immediately understood what Xu Fu was thinking and hurriedly said: " Don’t be stupid, no one can come up after going down.”

"No one wanted to go down and take a look before?" Xu Fu asked again. Is he the only one who is curious about the appearance under the quicksand?

"This place is the top secret of Shi Mansion. I accidentally discovered this well and built the Shi family here. No one except me and Qingshan knows about this place. However, I once put a well there ten years ago. The fifth-grade black mountain turtle was tied up and thrown in. When it was pulled up, only half of the turtle shell was left. In this quicksand, it was impossible to exert force, and the poisonous scorpions can hurt people. Even though I have cultivated to the ninth grade, I didn't dare to Jump down and give it a try..."

Xu Fu listened carefully to what Shi Buhuan said, but still didn't take a step back, but looked a little eager to try.

"Little brother, are you sure this Earth Elemental Spiritual Treasure is inside?" Seeing Xu Fu's appearance, Shi Buzhuan simply stepped forward and asked.

Being reminded by Shi Bu Zhuan, Xu Fu made a thought and gathered his spiritual power towards his eyes. The thick sand gradually became transparent, and he could see everything within a few feet of his eyes.

Even so, Xu Fu still couldn't see the bottom of the quicksand. There was nothing else in the quicksand, only countless black scorpions lurking in it, which made people's scalp numb.

Although these scorpions looked motionless as if they were dead, Xu Fu knew that this was just to save energy. Once a living creature fell into the quicksand, they would immediately "come back to life".

Xu Fu continued to search in the quicksand. Just when his eyes were sore and unsustainable, a little light made Xu Fu ecstatic.

The earth element treasure was found!

However, Xu Fu soon calmed down. Although he had found the Earth Spirit Treasure, how to take it out was a headache.

"Found it." Xu Fu answered Shi Buzhuan at this time.

"Just inside?" Shi Buzhuan asked hurriedly. He had just seen Xu Fu's eyes flashing with light, and he admired the young man in front of him even more.

"On the back of a big scorpion."

Xu Fu thought about the picture he had just received. A giant scorpion that was several times larger than the ordinary black scorpion was lurking underground like other scorpions. The Earth Spirit Treasure was shining on its back.

Shi Bujuan immediately turned his head when he heard the words. Before Xu Fu could figure out why the old man suddenly backed down, he saw him raising his hand and throwing a stone, smashing the head of a mouse.

Xu Fu suddenly realized it and hurriedly caught mice with Shi Buzhuan in the cave.

Both of them were extremely good at catching a few rats. However, although the cave was large, there were not many rats that came to "visit". After searching for a long time, the two of them only caught five.

"Try it!" Xu Fu pinched the tail of a dead rat and threw it towards the place where the giant scorpion was lurking.

As expected, as soon as the dead rat landed on the quicksand, before it could sink in, several black scorpions emerged and dragged it down, devouring it all in no time.

Xu Fu looked again with his spiritual fire eyes and found that when these black scorpions were eating mice, they would specially give a piece to the giant scorpion. No wonder it didn't move even if it was so close to it.

Xu Fu threw two more mice in disbelief, but it was still the same scene. The giant scorpion did nothing, but did not eat less. No wonder it grew so big!

There were too many black scorpions in the quicksand. Xu Fu throwing these mice was like throwing a stone into the river, unable to create a big wave.

"It seems that the mouse is useless. We have to find something else." Seeing that the method of using mice as bait did not work, Xu Fu said helplessly to Shi Buzhuan.

"I have an idea," Shi Buhuan said calmly.

"Old Master, please speak." Xu Fu responded hurriedly.

"How about I do this 'mouse'?"

Xu Fu was startled again when he heard this, and then immediately refused: "This is absolutely impossible, old man, we won't make this joke. If we can't get the Lingbao today, we will get it another day. We don't have to risk our lives..."

"The two of us can wait, but I'm afraid Xiaojiu can't wait!" Shi Buhuan showed a wry smile on his face, and continued: "My precious granddaughter has been a strong-willed person since she was a child. She wants to make her own decisions in everything. Now, without her consent, , how could she let it go if she has such a hasty marriage arrangement? I have received the news that she will take advantage of the chaos to escape the marriage on the day of the competition. This child is good at everything, but I have taken her too seriously since she was a child, and she has too much experience. "Young master, she doesn't even think about how those people can make her wish come true. Now she may not even be able to get out of the door of her own house!"

"In this case, it is even more important for you to come to the rescue!"

"You don't know something. I've fallen under their evil spell. As soon as they ring the handbell, I feel sore all over and dizzy. I'm not even as good as a nursing home. How can I save her?"

When Xu Fu heard this, he immediately thought of Lang Bai and his wife. It seemed that the former head of the Shi family in front of him was also poisoned by the same poison as them. Now the poisoned person and Qingli should be from the same family.

"Old Master, believe me, as long as you give me enough medicinal materials, I can help you get rid of this evil spell."

"As old as I am, I have long taken life and death lightly. Several of my grandsons are not in this house. Even if the Shi family cannot escape this disaster, it will not make the Shi family extinct. I have an explanation with my ancestors. . It’s just that I really can’t let go of my granddaughter, so I’m begging you to take her away. I hope you can take care of her more in the future..." At this point, Shi Buhuan jumped up, and he was the one who threw the mouse at Xu Fu. direction. At some point, a faint spiritual light appeared on his body, as if there was an earthy yellow armor covering his body.

"Don't……"

Xu Fu screamed and wanted to reach out to grab it, but was slapped back by Shi Bu Zhuan's palm from the air.

When Xu Fu stabilized his body, Shi Bu turned and fell into the quicksand.

Shi Buhuan's palms were flying, and countless black scorpions were blown away by the force of his palms. For a moment, no black scorpions could get close to him. However, although he was able to block the black scorpion, his whole body kept sinking, and soon he was up to his waist.

"Where is the Lingbao?"

Shi Buzhuan let out a low roar. Among the countless black scorpions he slapped away, none looked like what Xu Fu said.

Xu Fu endured the soreness in his eyes and used his Spirit Fire Eye again, and saw that there were no more black scorpions around Shi Bu Zhuan. The giant scorpion seemed to suddenly wake up, quickly cut through the sand, and emerged from the ground.

"careful!"

Xu Fu reminded him in shock, but saw a scorpion tail as thick as a finger suddenly poked out from Shi Bu's back and stabbed into his neck in an instant.

Shi Buhuan only frowned, without any panic, raised his hand to grab the scorpion's tail, and pulled the giant scorpion out of the quicksand.

Seeing the earth element treasure glowing yellow on the back of the giant scorpion, Shi Buhuan's face showed joy. After laughing twice, he raised his hand and threw the giant scorpion towards Xu Fu.
