It took another six or seven days for Xiao Fang and his party to pass through the hinterland of central Sichuan. After another two or three days, the mountains on both sides of the bank were steep and the current was turbulent. It was impossible to sail any more. They hired boatmen to pull the boat and walked slowly for four or five days. On the same day, he abandoned the boat and changed to a carriage.

The surrounding scenery has also changed, there are many more plantain broad leaves, the temperature is transpiring, and several people have changed into thin clothes, but looking up, they can see that the towering mountains are covered with snow.

Xiao Fang's body was getting weaker and weaker day by day, He Duwu and Jiang Xiaohua made a stretcher and carried him deep into the dense forest.

After walking like this for another two days, I have entered the depths of the mountains, and Baixue is much closer. Looking from the top of the mountain, the sea of ​​clouds spreads out like ten thousand horses galloping, hiding the mountain peaks, appearing and disappearing, as if in a trance. wonderland.

A few people turned over another mountain from the col, and there was no way, only a cave less than half the height of a person appeared in front of them.It's deep and dark, and I don't know where I'm going.

Xiao Fang stopped drinking suddenly.

He Duwu and Jiang Xiaohua didn't know the reason, Xiao Fang got off the soft bed, took two steps slowly, and said: "Throw away all the poisonous objects on your body here."

After the two obeyed, Xiao Fangcai said: "Take two more steps forward, and you will enter the underworld. You must follow the direction I pointed out. If you don't, your life will be in danger."

He Duwu and Jiang Xiaohua had never seen Xiao Fang speak so seriously before, they were faintly nervous, and they said yes.

Xiao Fang smiled slightly, and took off the red robe, leaving only a long gown, with a flick of the skirt, he bent down and got into the hole.He Duwu and Jiang Xiaohua followed behind.

The cave is huge, and there is a faint wind.

Even less than three feet from the entrance of the cave, it was pitch black.

I don't know why, but the sunlight can't enter.

The cold, dark and gloomy feeling makes people really feel like falling into hell.

The two were in a panic, but at this time they heard Xiao Fang's voice coming from the front, the low, soft and slightly hoarse emphasis, singing unhurriedly: "Dry three times, Kun six breaks, shake Yang Meng, Gen cover the bowl , from the void in the center, full in the ridge, deficient in the upper part, broken in the lower part of the sun..."

What he said was the innate gossip formula, but all the members of Wuliang Sect must learn this formula, and practice the most basic martial arts according to this formula.Therefore, when the two of them heard this sentence, they came back to their senses and started to walk according to the position in their memory and according to Xiao Fang's words.Sometimes he took two steps forward, then took a step back, and even circled in place, so it took a moment, but it was only a few steps, and he walked back and forth dozens of times.

After Xiao Fang said the last sentence: "Xun Xia Duan."

The two of them had come to his side.

"My lord!" The two shouted in unison.

In the darkness, Xiao Fang's hand held the two of them.His hands were icy cold, not like a living person, but his voice was still soft: "I am here."

After saying this sentence, he suddenly heard a "chi" sound, and then a torch lit up in Xiao Fang's hand. His face was pale, but his expression was very calm: "Be careful on the road ahead."

From the cave next to him, he pulled down the torch that he didn't know where to put it, and when he passed the torch up, the torch was already lit, illuminating the surroundings.

When He Duwu and Jiang Xiaohua saw it, they couldn't help exclaiming that the road they had just walked was actually a single-plank bridge, and under that single-plank bridge was an extremely dark mud, among which piles of skeletons that hadn't completely sunk. There are hundreds.Thinking of Xiao Fang's guidance just now, the two couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.

Xiao Fang said with a smile: "This pitch-black thing is highly poisonous and can absorb light. If an unsuspecting person enters, he will fall in with one step and die immediately. If he lights a torch, he will go out with two steps. Therefore, Many people died. The reason why the underworld has not been discovered for a long time is also because of this light-absorbing poison that does not even let the sun shine. For thousands of years, only four or five people have been able to enter the underworld."

While speaking, Xiao Fang had already walked slowly into the cave.

He Duwu and Jiang Xiaohua looked at each other and said, "Then how did you enter, my lord?"

Xiao Fangdao: "The Wu Qiong clan can see things at night. I caught a Wu Qiong clansman and forced him to take me in..." He suddenly sighed: "After the matter is done, I should goug his eyes and pull out his Tongue, so that he can't leak the secret. If I hadn't been merciful at the time and asked him to go out and meet Shen Tao, how could Qiong Sanlang appear?"

As they walked along the way, Xiao Fang talked.

There are piles of white bones on the side of the road.

But I don't know why he died.

Xiao Fang explained: "I destroyed the mechanism of this route long ago. Otherwise, how could Shen Tao be able to enter the underworld?"

"My lord, at that time... why did you know about the underworld? And why did you insist on entering it?" Jiang Xiaohua hesitated and asked.

It took Xiao Fang a long time to reply: "Because I was only 20 years old, but I was about to die. A person who is about to die will believe any unbelievable legends. He will use any unscrupulous methods... The legends of the underworld are not my own. The most bizarre thing I’ve ever experienced. You don’t even know how bizarre other legends are.” He laughed, choked and coughed twice before saying, “Unfortunately, the legendary one Things are not in hell."

At this time, several people had almost walked out of the cave, and there was a faint light in front of them.

"Is it Wangyoucao?" Jiang Xiaohua asked.

"No. That's something I don't know about the 'Seven Great Hatreds'. I went to the Underworld to find another treasure. The Nestle Grass is just something I got by chance."

"Another one?" Jiang Xiaohua was stunned. "What is it?"

The entrance of the cave was in front of him, Xiao Fang had already stepped halfway, turned his head and said with a smile: "It's called... a ghost painting talisman."

"Ghost painting talisman?"
