In the contrast between reality and dreams, Ji Chen did not realize that his obsession with her had quietly relaxed.

What he wanted to see even more was the woman in front of him, whose happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy came from his own heart. She doesn't have to compromise or worry about what anyone thinks.

Laugh when you are happy, cry when you are sad. This is what she should be.

He looked at the figure not far away that was somewhat blurred by the darkness, and when he heard her clear and sweet voice, he curled his lips. In fact, it's fine if she's here, there's no need to follow him.

At that time, Jiang Zhixia was wearing Xie Zezhi's robe, and the heat on her body was dissipated by the ice silk. Xie Zezhi was afraid that she would step on the clothes that were dragging on the ground and fall, so he tore off the excess fabric. Now her movements were not hindered. In addition, he found the hairpin on her head, wiped it clean and put it back on, which made her feel much better.

She, Xie Zezhi, and Li Xuchu checked the newly opened holes one by one, trying to find the right way out. But these cave entrances are all the same. There is nothing special about them. They are extremely narrow and can only be passed by one person. They are extremely dark inside and they don't know what is inside.

"Nine roads. If we each take one, there will be five more." She asked, "Where should we go, Lord Zhenjun?"

Xie Zeyi had no idea for a moment. He raised his head at Li Xuchu and said, "I am young and ignorant. Master Xuchu has lived a long time and has experienced a lot. He also became an immortal earlier than me. Which way do you want to go?"

Li Xuchu was so angry: Now you think of me!

Jiang Zhixia looked at the two of them from side to side, then looked at Ji Chen who stepped forward, and sighed, "You have to rely on me at the critical moment, I'll do it!"

Li Xuchu and Ji Chen looked at her expectantly, but Xie Zezhi felt a thump in his heart.

He stepped forward and took her wrist, "You'd better find a way. Are you sure you're serious? You don't have to force it..."

"Trust me! Am I that kind of person?" She rolled her eyes at him, then in full view of everyone, she took off her shoes and threw them in the air, then pointed in the direction of the toes of the shoes, "Go that way."

Li Xuchu/Ji Chen:......

Xie Zezhi: I knew it!

He knelt down and put her shoes back on, and said tactfully: "Master Jiang, this method is quite good... I'm not saying it won't work, but it's just a bit too advanced for a god."

"Anyway, you have no idea, so just follow God's instructions. This is God's reminder to us." She said plausibly, and suddenly raised her hand, "Did you hear it?"

She walked to one of the cave entrances, pointed there and said: "There is crying, and the sound is louder. Do you listen?"

The three of them held their breath and listened carefully but did not hear the cry she said. Ji Chen did hear some subtle movements, but they couldn't be said to be cries, and the sounds were sometimes there and sometimes not.

"Why don't we just go this way." Jiang Zhixia said and was about to dive in.

Li Xuchu took a few steps forward to block the entrance of the cave, "Don't be impulsive. There must be only one way out of these nine roads. If we are trapped and die inside, we will not be able to get out."

"But we are trapped here." She said: "It is even more difficult to choose the right one among the nine paths. If you don't know what to choose, just listen to me. I will be responsible for the wrong choice. Besides, This one is correct. Believe me, I have always felt that my gambling luck is very good, but I have never gambled..."

She was extremely optimistic and prepared to go in.

"Wait a minute." Ji Chen held her arm, and then quickly let go, "If this cry is meant to lure you away, then..."

"Then we have to go even more!" She had her own set of fallacies. "If it is really a trap, then it proves that there must be someone down there! If there is someone, there is a way out. Who do you think would live in a place where they can't get out? ? If he wants to be reasonable, we will be reasonable. If he wants to take action, we will kill him!

Perfect! "

After speaking, she also snapped her fingers.

Xie Zezhi knew that what she had decided would not change easily unless someone could tell her for sure which way to go. But what she said is not unreasonable. Anyway, I don't know which way to go. Instead of standing here, I might as well give it a try. Maybe there will be a turn for the better.

Because the entrance to the cave was extremely narrow and could only be passed by one person, they discussed it and decided that Ji Chen would walk in front with the Immortal Slayer Sword, and Xie Ze would follow behind. Jiang Zhixia and Li Xuchu were walking in the middle.

As soon as the four people stepped into the cave, the door closed instantly. At first they tried to use the Immortal Sword to split open the stone door, but to no avail. Now they had no way out and could only move forward.

There was no light inside the cave, and it was hot and humid. Fortunately, they seemed to be going downhill and it was relatively easy. But they walked for a long time without reaching the end, and the temperature was getting hotter and hotter.

Li Xuchu didn't know what their situation was, but anyway, he was getting more and more irritable and faintly angry, regretting why he listened to them and chose this path. Now it is neither progress nor retreat. You should stop them.

He exhaled. Suddenly, she heard Jiang Zhixia humming a tune from somewhere behind her, as if she was very happy.

"I've never heard you hum this song before." Xie Zezhi said, "New to you?"

"Yeah." She nodded, "Some of those disciples who cultivate immortality are from Huainan. They were singing and playing while working in the front yard. I thought it sounded good and asked them to teach me. What do you think?"

The tone of her voice was also raised, and she sounded very happy.

"It sounds good."

Even though he couldn't see her back, Xie Zezhi's annoyance eased a little when he thought that she was in front. Now I heard her humming again. I wonder if it was my imagination, but the surroundings didn't seem so stuffy anymore.

He had a joking idea and asked her: "It's so hot here, I'm afraid you will be irritable. It seems that you are in a good mood now. What have you thought of? Is it me?"

"Blind poor. I thought of something, but I didn't have you."

"I don't believe it unless you tell me."

Jiang Zhixia laughed before she could say anything, "I remembered that one year, my master took me down the mountain to enlighten a wealthy disciple in the lower world, because mortals said that he had harmed many women from good families. That day was the summer solstice, especially It was extremely hot. We agreed before we set off that he would play my dead father and I would play the little girl who sold herself to bury her father, and then led the young man into being fooled.

Seeing the young master coming over, the master lay down on the ground. As a result, the ground was extremely hot that day. He shouted and jumped up, standing right in front of the young master. The young master thought it was a fake corpse and was so frightened that he fainted..."

She recalled the frightened look of that person that day, and recalled her master's embarrassment. She held her stomach and laughed while speaking.

"Oh my god..." She wiped away the tears from her laughter, "Ah, no, I'm going to die..."

Xie Zezhi also laughed with her.

"What happened next?" Li Xuchu asked. When he became an immortal, Master Kaiyang had not yet achieved enlightenment through cultivation, so he didn’t know much about him. Now that I heard her talk, I became curious about this old god who behaved strangely.

"Later, the young master was ill for several days. When he woke up, he couldn't be humane. Within a few months, he went to the temple and became a monk..." She laughed again, "My master was called out by the Emperor of Heaven for not doing this well. I went to the Heavenly Palace for questioning and was punished when I came back.”

"No wonder one day Master Kaiyang went to the Heavenly Palace to argue with the Emperor of Heaven." Xie Zezhi said: "He said that it doesn't matter how he did it, as long as the final result is the same as expected. He also said that even if he did 99% wrong, There was nothing wrong with that person, but the Emperor couldn't do anything to him, so he found an excuse to punish him and punish him behind closed doors. "

After listening, Jiang Zhixia laughed even louder, "It turns out that he was punished because he was worried! He told me that he argued hard in the Heavenly Palace and fought with the Confucian scholars, and finally resolved the crisis of being executed. This The old man has not been serious all day long..."

"He had already restrained himself a lot when he accepted you." Ji Chen, who was walking in front, rarely joined the conversation, "When he locked me up in Dongyao in order to make me his apprentice, one night he turned into Black and White Wuchang to seduce me. His soul told me that because I was not his disciple, my life was over."

"Hahahahahaha..."

Jiang Zhixia rubbed her cheeks that hurt from laughing.

Li Xuchu was unable to participate in their topics, but this did not prevent him from expressing his own opinions on those matters. She found that he was also a venomous person, and his comments about her master were even accurate.

The incident with Master Kaiyang eased the previously anxious atmosphere. They chatted so happily that they even forgot that they were walking on a dark, hot and endless road. It was more like three or five friends coming for an outing, laughing and laughing all the way.

After an unknown amount of time, everyone felt the wind blowing against their faces. Ji Chen saw a little red light in front of him, and Jiang Zhixia heard crying again. But this time it wasn't just her, the three of them heard it too.

Ji Chen raised his sword in defense. They moved slowly and carefully following the sound, walked out of the narrow road, and came to a more open and bright place.

It's even hotter here, with steam rising from the ground from time to time. There are torches lighting up all around, and a ten-foot-tall double-sided fox statue stands directly in front. It was wearing human clothes and sitting on a stone bench with its eyes half-closed. The two faces faced different directions, facing a stone cave respectively. However, there are many talisman ropes in front of the stone cave entrance on the right, as if something is sealed inside.

There are nine foxes on both sides of the fox statue. They were also wearing human clothes, kneeling down to the big fox, arranged in order of size, holding trays in their hands, with everything on them.

The source of the cry is the woman lying in front of the fox statue. Her voice echoed in the cave, which was quite creepy.

Jiang Zhixia casually picked up a pebble on the ground and threw it next to the man. The man noticed the movement, stopped crying and raised his head.

"Oh my god, I'm such a living person." She quickly apologized to others.

When the man heard her voice, he quickly stood up and ran towards them, but he couldn't run before he got there. Everyone saw an iron chain tied to her ankle.

"Ni, Ni Shuang?!" Xie Zezhi said in shock.
