My messenger is a little fox

Chapter 42 Sacrifice

The place Zhang Songping was talking about was a hidden cave with a small entrance. Adults had to bend down to enter. There were also dense mountain vine-like vegetation around it. It was impossible to find the entrance of the cave without digging through the plants.

The cave is spacious and dry, about the size of a classroom, making it a very good hiding place.

There was still some time before evening, so everyone took the opportunity to rest in the cave. Zhang Songping has a sense of superiority as he comes from a wealthy family. Although Zhang Tiejun and his wife praised Li Yu very much, in Zhang Songping's opinion, they were only second-level cultivation, and their status was similar to that of casual cultivators (Li Yu claimed that (from a small family), so he was only polite but cold towards the two of them.

Li Yu didn't care, but Xu Die'er looked unhappy. If it weren't for Liu Hongyan's apologetic smile from time to time, she might have even said something to Zhang Songping. Therefore, Xu Dieer found a clean place to sleep soon after entering the cave. Li Yu gave Zhang Songping another healing spell, chatted with a few people, and leaned against the mountain wall with his eyes closed to rest.

Only the three members of the Zhang family were left exchanging information in a low voice and making some plans and preparations for the next rescue operation.

Li Yu felt bored after listening for a while. He didn't even know the situation he was about to face or the reality of the enemy. How useful the plan made at this time would be. It was better to rest for a while. There might be a battle or even a battle next. A series of tough battles are to be fought.

Ever since he saw humans and spirits bound by canes in the blue-eyed baboon's lair, Li Yu felt that the actions of these blue-eyed baboons might be related to what he was looking for, so he asked Zhang Tiejun and his wife to leave the corpse At that time, he had already considered how to encourage a few people to monitor the blue-eyed baboon. It's just that Zhang Songping gave him an unexpected surprise. Whether Zhang Tiejun's eldest brother was still alive or Zhang Songping encountered the blue-eyed baboon escorting the prisoners, the results were what he wanted.

Now the danger of the Jiuli Mountains has exceeded Li Yu's expectation. A single monster attacking humans crazily is not something he can face alone. Fortunately, he met Xu Dieer and Zhang Tiejun along the way, which allowed him to go all the way. here.

What if he still can't find what he wants next? What if Zhang Tiejun and his wife rescued their eldest brother or found that their eldest brother was dead and had to evacuate? Moreover, there is a person behind him that makes him extremely afraid - Chu Zihua, so he can't leave everything to luck...

Just when Li Yu's thoughts became more and more confusing, there was a sound of footsteps and the cry of a baboon outside the cave. The people resting in the cave opened their eyes one after another. Several people looked at each other and nodded, what they had been waiting for finally came.

......

Li Yu and the other four hid in a patch of rocks. Zhang Songping finally stayed in the cave because of his serious injuries. Several people followed the blue-eyed baboon all the way here.

In an open space a few hundred meters ahead, there is a simple altar made of hundreds of boulders. Countless powerful monsters that inhabit the Jiuli Mountains gather around it.

There are green-tusked demon elephants that are as big as a hill, demon-scaled pythons that are tens of meters long, chipmunks that are as big as a palm, and fire monkeys that are famous for their bad temper, etc. At this moment, each one of them was curled up or lying down, completely losing their former ferocity and cunningness. They were as honest as primary school students who were about to be called out, and most of them were carrying prey. The blue-eyed baboons also joined the group of monsters and found a place in one direction of the altar to calm down.

Li Yu and the others looked at the scene in front of them in shock. Not to mention the altar that suddenly appeared in the deep mountains, the black monsters gathered together, many of which were hostile to each other or natural enemies, were strangely coexisting together at this moment. The place is terrifying.

When the sun reached the top of the mountain in the west, the magic circle in the center of the altar gradually became brighter, and the monsters surrounding the altar also became restless.

Soon the first batch of monsters rushed forward and threw their prey into the magic circle in the center of the altar. The array suddenly glowed with light, and the sacrifices disappeared without a trace. Then several rays of light shot into these monsters from the surrounding stone pillars. A look of satisfaction appeared on the faces of the monsters, and then they hurriedly left the altar and disappeared into the distant mountains and forests.

There was nothing to stop the departing monsters. All the monsters sacrificed their sacrifices anxiously but in an orderly manner and then left. Although there were occasional disputes over the order of sacrifices, they were intimidated by the four stone lion-like monsters on the altar. All behaved themselves.

Suddenly, when the magic circle in the altar dimmed again, a colorful and beautiful bird rushed into the magic circle, and then disappeared in a burst of light. At this moment, there were only a few dozen monsters left around the altar, and they were all anxiously waiting for the sacrifices. The big bird's sudden surprise failed to attract their attention, but the four stone lions guarding the altar wanted to stop them. But it was too late.

Wucai Jinluan and Li Yu rushed in at the moment when the altar formation was about to end. This was a countermeasure discussed by several people.

This altar array is obviously a teleportation array, and I don't know where it is connected to. But one thing is certain, Zhang Tiejun's eldest brother and the others should be on the other side of the teleportation array, so Zhang Tiejun and his wife support venturing in. Li Yu, on the other hand, felt the monster's strength increase after seeing the light from the altar shining into the monster, and he became more and more convinced that what he was looking for was here. As for Xu Die'er, she thought it didn't matter where she went as long as she didn't meet Chu Zihua.

In a daze, the four people and their messengers were teleported into a huge cave. The cave is the size of a football field, and the ceiling is over 100 meters high.

The roof of the cave is similar to a wine bottle. There is a gap at the highest point that connects to the outside. Light comes in from the outside, bringing some light into the cave and also reflecting the green light around it.

"Be careful, those things that glow green are soul-absorbing trees!" Zhang Tiejun, who was in the combined state, stood in front of several people, and was reflected in the green light in the cave, making him look green.

The branches of the soul-absorbing wood were covered with previous sacrifices and bones, which looked particularly eerie against the blue light. Coupled with the fishy smell that filled the cave, even Li Yu and Liu Hongyan looked pale, and Xu Die Er even screamed out in surprise, but Zhang Tiejun, a man as iron as steel, was the first to be on guard.

Probably sensing the aura of the living beings, the soul-absorbing wood stretched out countless branches and clawed at several people, but Zhang Tiejun chopped them down one by one with a big axe. Li Yu and others also came to their senses one after another and used their methods to attack the incoming branches.

Probably no one thought that anyone could break into this place. Although there were a large number of soul-absorbing trees in the cave, most of them were first- and second-order items. In addition, the attack methods were single, so they were quickly suppressed by the four people.

The broken branches and leaves on the ground grew thicker and thicker, and eventually the branches of the spirit-absorbing tree were even avoiding the attacks of several people. Just when a few people began to relax a little, a thick branch rose up between the four of them, and the violent momentum knocked them apart.

"It's a third-level molted body! Everyone, be careful!"

Looking at the sudden appearance of the soul-absorbing tree that was as thick as two people holding it together, Zhang Tiejun, who was the first to turn over and get up, loudly reminded several people, "Everyone gather first! I'll hold it back!"

Just when Zhang Tiejun was swinging his ax and preparing to attack him, a purple-red wind chime-like flower suddenly appeared on the top of the third-order soul-absorbing tree.

The purple-red flowers swayed in the wind, sprinkling countless fine pollen all around. Pollen enveloped Zhang Tiejun, making his eyes gradually become confused, and then he slashed at the air crazily. Then there was Liu Hongyan. Because the third-level spiritual master was given priority by the soul-absorbing tree, she was also immediately recruited.

"Dream Bell Flower! Not good..."

Li Yu just noticed the abnormality and was already hit. The scenery in front of him instantly turned into countless soul-absorbing trees rushing towards him. Li Yu also fell into confusion. As for Xu Die'er, she fell into the group of soul-absorbing trees due to the surprise attack of the third-level soul-absorbing trees. She was already in a hurry by many low-level soul-absorbing trees.

Just when the four of them were in trouble in the cave, the altar outside was also in a mess.

Because of the mistakes made by Li Yu and others, the four stone lions no longer allowed the sacrificed monsters to leave, but instead drove them to search around to prevent other lurking threats. Although the remaining monsters were dissatisfied, they were afraid of the stone lion's power and had to accept the drive.

It would be fine if there was nothing, but——

"Holy shit! Boss, those monsters are here! Why should we take the blame for the trouble those guys caused?" A thin man begged the bald man behind him with a mournful face, "Boss, let's just run away, these guys The monsters look worse than those fire poisonous bees!"

"Shut up!" Qinghu said with a livid face: "Our boss will be Mr. Chu from now on!"

Then he said respectfully to Mr. Jin Yi beside him: "Mr. Chu, do you think we should fight or withdraw?"

Chu Zihua was very satisfied with Qinghu's knowledge of current affairs, nodded and said: "Don't worry, I still look down on this kind of master! You should still be the boss of your Qinghu Club. As long as you work hard, you will be indispensable for future glory and wealth." !”

After Qing Hu Nuonuo thanked him, Chu Zihua said again: "A dozen monsters are nothing! The source of the abnormality in the Jiuli Mountains should be here. Since I let you encounter it, you can just solve it easily. On the contrary, Those stone lions seem to be a long-lost technology, I will capture one or two as soon as possible, I want to take them back to study!"
