The Demon Road of the Republic of China

The footsteps running in the tomb passage were messy and hurried.

The flickering flames came struggling from the corner, and a staggering figure of a young Taoist priest appeared, followed by two bald heads, one big and one small, and the great monk hurriedly urged: "Master Xuanxu, hurry up, ant!" The group is about to catch up!"

"It's here! It's coming soon!"

Xuan Xu ran out of breath, sweating profusely, but his eyes lit up, he supported the wall, and quickly climbed up with all four limbs.

"Come here...give me your hand!"

Xuanxu crawled into the robbery cave, and stretched out his hand to pull the little monk who was lifted up by the big monk.

The little monk was not big, but he weighed a lot, and his arms hurt from falling like a weight, and he almost couldn't hold it.

The rustling of ants and insects approached.

Xuanxu had already seen the black tide spreading from the corner, so he hurriedly dragged the little monk in, and then put his hand on the big monk.The great monk was still smiling, and instead of taking Xuanxu's hand, he jumped up on the spot and jumped up with one kick.

The great monk was obese, and he blocked the entire entrance of the cave as soon as he entered.

"Come on!"

The elder monk urged, pushed Xuanxu and the younger monk, and sent the two of them into the robbery cave for a while, then turned back and shook out a scroll of scriptures shining with pale golden light, and sealed it at the entrance of the cave.

The black ants had already rushed up densely, and they were all huge man-eating ants, ramming into the scripture with all their strength.

Seeing this, Xuanxu flicked his sleeves and threw some blue powder over, "Let's go!"

They also spent a day or two together, and they had a tacit understanding with each other.As soon as Xuanxu said this, the great monk immediately crawled forward without hesitation.

The three of them crawled quickly in the robbery cave, and there was a sudden shock behind them. There was a muffled sound, sand and stones fell from the top of their heads, and the entrance of the cave was completely blocked by the explosion.

The robbery cave is dark and narrow.

Xuanxu curled up and crawled forward quickly, and soon saw a little light, and the hole opened up a little.

But he didn't go out in a hurry, but looked inside the cave for a while.In order to avoid being chased by a large group of bugs as soon as I left the robbery hole, I didn't take a few steps.

"Is there any movement?" The monk came up and asked.

Xuanxu smacked his lips and jumped out first.

This cemetery is rather strange.

It is not so much a tomb passage as a bridge.

One stone bridge after another criss-crossed, and the bottom was supported by tall stone pillars. Looking down, there was only deep and endless darkness, and there was a slight chill blowing up from below, which made people feel chills on their backs.

The bridge deck is only two feet wide, and beyond that is the abyss. Once you fall, you will definitely be smashed to pieces.

"Where... is this going?"

They were sent here by the authorities before, and the maze-like chaotic bridges in front of them trapped them for several hours, no matter how they walked, they would be broken. In desperation, they chose to find another way from the robbery cave.

"The mountains and rivers are full of doubts and there is no way out. After that, there may be another village." The great monk said, "Master Xuanxu, don't worry. I've been working hard until now. Why don't you just calm down and take a rest before making long-term plans. .”

"That's the only way to go." Xuanxu said helplessly.

The elder monk and the younger monk sat down on the lee side of the rock wall and shared the dry food.Xuanxu was right next to them, sweeping the floor with a dust whisk very elegantly, and sat down slowly.

"Master Dao, you can rest assured to sleep," the great monk took off his cassock, covered his taciturn little apprentice, patted his head comfortingly, and said, "The poor monk is watching, and I will call you later." you."

As soon as he sat down, Xuanxu realized that he was so tired that he was almost falling apart. The exhaustion surged up, so he nodded politely: "Master, you will call Pindao later, and Pindao will stand up and guard."

The great monk nodded, and Xuanxu closed his eyes in peace.

He couldn't help but feel a little rejoiced.

I am really lucky.Although he made a mistake when creating the explosion, causing himself and Gu Jinghan and Rong Fei to be separated, at least they did not fall into the hands of the enemy.Looking at those fleshy faces, they are characters that are not easy to get along with. They will definitely be beaten up and thrown out as cannon fodder.

But it was different with the two monks, one big and one small.

The three of them are not greedy and competitive, they will not damage the coffin if they don't take things, they are cautious, and they are never curious.Perhaps it was really blessed by the Taoist Buddha. The most dangerous time since I came here is just a corpse fraud that can be solved with a few talismans.

This made Xuanxu a little puzzled, the blood tomb in Qishan, where his uncle would die even if he guessed it, is it that simple?

Thinking vaguely in his heart, Xuanxu's head became dizzy, and he fell asleep involuntarily.

The abundance roared from the abyss.

Xuanxu didn't seem to have slept for a long time, but his heart tightened suddenly, and he woke up.He didn't open his eyes immediately, but maintained his original posture.

The inside of the sleeve was terribly hot, he quietly moved his fingers to feel it, and it was the most precious piece of Fengyang Temple that was burning hot.

Is there something big and evil nearby?

Xuanxu opened his eyes cautiously, and was about to reach out his hand to shake the great monk who was not too far away from him, but suddenly found that there seemed to be something wrong with the great monk sitting sideways to him.

The great monk's smiling face was a little stiff, as if it had been painted on, and the color of the pupils smudged onto the cheeks, making it pitch black.His obese body is slowly thinning, or in other words, his whole body is slowly shrinking.From a round and three-dimensional human body to a thin painted skin.

Xuanxu's whole body froze into stone, his face was almost ashen.

If it wasn't for the fact that he has dealt with many monsters and ghosts all the time, and his mental quality is extraordinary, he might have screamed out in fright on the spot.

The scene in front of him was really weird.

A living person becomes a skin.But the little monk still closed his eyes, clinging to this piece of skin unconsciously.Xuanxu's scalp was numb, his breathing was slow and light, his eyes were only a slit to watch carefully, his hand was close to the little monk, ready to pick up the little monk and run away at any time.

But the next moment, the great monk puffed up again.With only a few breaths, a living body that breathes slowly and meditates appears in front of my eyes again.

If it wasn't for the burning turmoil in his sleeves, Xuanxu would even think that he was just dreaming and hadn't woken up.

The great monk who has always been kind and amiable is actually a monster with painted skin?No wonder he refused to pull him by himself. The appearance can be changed, but the weight cannot.

Thoughts were spinning in Xuanxu's mind, but he closed his eyes tightly, not daring to look again.

I know my own weight, and I can't take down such a monster with my three-legged kung fu alone. It seems that I should reconcile with Gu Tianshi as soon as possible.

As soon as this thought came to his mind, there was a sudden violent vibration and loud roaring noise from under him.

Xuanxu pretended to be awakened, opened his eyes and jumped up quickly, "What's wrong?!"

The big monk also pulled up the little monk, as if nothing happened just now, looked around and frowned and said: "The poor monk doesn't know. But such a big movement seems to be coming from below. These stone pillars are shaking, and I'm afraid they won't last long , we have to leave quickly!"

The little monk grasped the elder monk's cassock tightly, with timid eyes.

"Then what should we do?" The earthquake became more and more violent, Xuanxu had to hold on to the rock wall.

He also felt the shaking under his feet. Not far away, a stone pillar began to collapse, and the bridge deck broke and fell into the abyss continuously.

The great monk looked serious, and immediately said: "Go back to the robber's cave!"

However it was too late.

The shock just now caused the gravel to fall, blocking the entrance of the cave, making it impossible to enter.

No way out.

Xuanxu subconsciously looked at the monk, seeing those black eyes, he suddenly remembered the painted skin just now, immediately turned his eyes away, quickly glanced around, gritted his teeth, and rushed up the staggered stone bridge.

He touched the motionless Ding Fengbo in his sleeve, and shouted: "Ding Fengbo has responded! This way!"

The earth is shaking and the mountains are shaking.

The entire Mount Qi seemed to be shaking, like an earthquake sweeping across the city.

The common people ran around and squatted into the small earthquake-proof fortress of their own homes.A trembling old man was brought in. While walking, he looked back at the top of Qishan Mountain not far away, and sighed, "Has it been 1000 years since today..."

Underground river bottom.

The white marble platform remained motionless, but the surrounding river was violently tumbling.

"How could this be?"

Rong Fei frowned, and squeezed the wooden sign in his hand.

In his hand, a small seal character "封" suddenly appeared on the ordinary blank wooden signboard, stroke by stroke, as if someone was writing from a distance, with black ink concentrated.

Gu Jinghan pulled him closer to prevent accidents, and said: "It seems to be an earthquake. It may be related to this wooden sign."

Rong Fei was startled: "Then this..."

Gu Jinghan took the wooden sign over, and the seal characters did not disappear, and the surrounding vibration became more and more violent, and there was no sign of stopping, which proved that it might be related, but it might just be a touch.

"You said you couldn't see the black and white coffins next to it, but only the pair of embroidered shoes floating in the air?"

Gu Jinghan frowned, he pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "I think I understand. It's Yinyan."

Rong Fei understood immediately, and suddenly said: "Is it the bone that was recovered from the perfumer? The master insisted on finding the evil eye, so it would be helpful to enter the blood tomb?"

Gu Jinghan nodded, "I can see what others can't. Or more."

Just now Rong Fei and Gu Jinghan had already exchanged their experiences during this period of separation, Rong Fei naturally remembered the illusion that Gu Jinghan experienced before.True or false, not sure.

"Then what's the difference between the two coffins you can see?" Rong Fei asked.

Gu Jinghan shook his head: "The black is empty, there is this wooden sign, and the white is closed..."

His gaze followed the words, and the moment Gu Jinghan looked at the white wooden coffin, his voice stopped abruptly.

"do not move!"

Gu Jinghan hugged Rong Fei suddenly, and retreated quickly.

But at the same time, the originally tightly closed white wooden coffin crackled and opened with a loud bang.

A huge suction came from it, completely irresistible to manpower. Gu Jinghan hugged Rong Fei so tightly that he was almost embedded in his bones, but he was still pulled away by this suction and sucked in one after another.

The inside of the white wooden coffin was like a bottomless pit. After the two were sucked away, the space of the magic circle supported by the entire white marble was completely distorted and shattered.

The river poured in.

The suction of the white wooden coffin gradually weakened, and the opened coffin lid closed itself with a bang.

The vibration slowly stopped, but the entire underground river was like a blood vessel, gurgling and pumping, as if something had been revived and was waking up.

Bump and pull.

During the rapid fall, Rong Fei tried his best to go backwards, trying to resist the suction force and catch Gu Jinghan.It's really fucking crazy to have to disperse after just meeting.

Suddenly, in the endlessly flying darkness, a little golden light lit up on Rong Fei's chest, quickly drawn into a slender golden thread, extending far away.

A slender and powerful hand appeared at the other end of the golden thread.

The howling wind blows away the trivial hair, and outlines Gu Jinghan's cool and handsome face with a sharp and forceful look.He grabbed the gold thread tightly, stretched out his arms, and hugged Rong Fei.

Rong Fei clasped his shoulders and bit his neck hard.

The suction power is weakened.

The eyes suddenly brightened, and countless criss-crossing dense branches and leaves appeared, as well as green vines entangled on the branches.

The two fell into the canopy and fell rapidly.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Gu Jinghan grabbed a vine as thick as a baby's arm, trying to stop the falling trend.Rong Fei took advantage of the situation and spun around Gu Jinghan's waist, and put his feet on a different thick tree trunk, using his strength to counter the shock.

After borrowing strength several times, the speed of the two finally slowed down.

Rong Fei stepped on a branch, pulled Gu Jinghan over with his backhand, looked around, and said, "It's so big, it's really a tree, how long will it take to grow like this?"

Gu Jinghan settled down and said, "More than 500 years."

At this time, they were in a huge and towering tree like a tall building.

Standing in it, their sight was blocked by green leaves the size of disks and criss-crossing branches. They couldn't see the real and specific shape, but they could also feel that it was an extremely huge tree, as thick as a skyscraper. There is no end in sight, and the bottom is blurry and small.

Rong Fei touched his body and found a small telescope no bigger than a palm.He looked at it carefully, and laughed: "Fortunately, it wasn't broken, let me take a look."

Gu Jinghan stared at him and nodded slightly.

In the process of falling, there were some scratches and bloodstains on his face and body, and Gu Jinghan didn't have the slightest demeanor of a nobleman at this time, the bloodstains were everywhere, and he looked a little embarrassed.A streak of blood streaked across the eyebrows, as if split and shattered, causing Gu Jing's cold and condensed eyebrows to burst into a stern and strange color.

But Rong Fei was unscathed.

But Rong Fei couldn't see it now, Gu Jinghan wished that he could find something to divert his attention.

"How?" Gu Jinghan asked.

Rong Fei looked down and said: "I can't see clearly from below, but it seems that there are many coffins hanging on the branches of the lower floor, connected with iron locks. Some can be seen on the ground... Is that a transparent jade coffin? ……one person."

Rong Fei put down the telescope, handed it to Gu Jinghan, frowned and said, "Look."

Gu Jinghan shook his head: "Go down and have a look. This should be the main chamber of the Blood Tomb."

Rong Fei raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"It is impossible for normal trees to grow to this kind of age without any defects, especially in this kind of bloody tomb where there should be no grass. The only thing that can be explained is that things are always reversed."

Gu Jinghan said: "There is no vegetation in the yin, but the extreme yin complements the extreme yang, so there is yin and yang vitality. If the blood tomb can be extremely yin, it must be the main tomb where the owner of the tomb is. No matter who the owner of the tomb is, he Burying myself here is not for resting in peace, but for reviving one day."

"The jade coffin should be the cold jade coffin, which can protect the body from decay for thousands of years."

Rong Fei narrowed his peach blossom eyes slightly, curved his lips and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, we shouldn't go down. When the real master comes, wouldn't it be better for him to keep us in the dark?"

He turned his head and blinked at Gu Jinghan, like a little fox wagging its big fluffy tail.

A smile flashed across Gu Jinghan's eyes, and he squeezed Master Rong's hand.

Young Master Rong turned back not to be outdone, and continued: "Three people received anonymous letters and maps and came to the blood tomb. The fake master who was dressed exactly like that master but didn't know about the evil eye, the blood sacrifice curse of the fox demon Su Qing. , Three pieces of dark eyes... Is it that master? What exactly does he want?"

"I brought all three of Linzi's urns," Gu Jinghan said, "but he is still in a deep sleep and cannot wake up. But the contact with the blood deed told me that he wants to come here."

"Then wait and see."

Rong Fei hooked the corner of his lower lip, simply sat down on the branch, and pulled Gu Jinghan down, leaning on it like a boneless one.

Gu Jinghan embraced him, feeling that as long as the narrow waist was still in his hands, his heart would be at peace, and there would be no more panic.

As soon as the two leaned on each other, Young Master Rong still raised his face from time to time to seduce Young Master Gu to take a soft and sweet kiss. It was so dangerous that it forced people to have the illusion of a leisurely honeymoon.

When Xuan Xu first saw this pair of dogs and men, he had this kind of illusion.

After finally escaping from the constantly collapsing stone bridge formation, panting with all his strength, Xuanxu saw the figures of Gu Jinghan and Rong Fei, just like seeing his own parents, he almost didn't cry.

However, after seeing clearly the crooked movements of those two people than his parents, Xuanxu's tears immediately swallowed, turned into saliva, and let out a pooh.

His face was full of disgust, but the spineless Daoist Xuanxu opened his mouth and shouted: "Gu Tianshi! Rong Shao! It's me, Xiaoxu! I'm here—!"

Rong Fei turned his head when he heard the sound, and caught sight of Xuanxu, who was slipping carefully along the vines from the rock wall.

"He's still alive, Daoist Xuanxu. Congratulations." Rong Fei joked.

Xuan Xu chuckled: "Same joy, same joy."

Rong Fei straightened up and said to Gu Jinghan: "Is this really mysterious? Why do you feel a little silly?"

Gu Jinghan said lightly: "It has always been like this."

Xuan Xu is used to the jokes of this vicious tongue duo, anyway, it's not painful, life is more important.And because of this familiar teasing, Xuanxu can be sure that the two people in front of him are really Gu Jinghan and Rong Fei.

He turned his head and looked, and saw that there was no figure of the big monk at the entrance of the cave on the rock wall, only the young monk brought out by him was lying there and did not dare to move, so he beckoned, "Come on, don't be afraid... crawl over here I'll follow you!"

The little monk looked at Xuanxu with timid eyes.

But with Xuanxu's encouragement, he finally acted, slowly hugged the vine, and crawled towards Xuanxu.

Seeing this, Rong Fei frowned and said, "Why is there only the young monk? Where is Master Zhishan? Are you separated?"

Xuanxu finally received the little monk, and while sliding towards the branch, he said loudly: "Don't mention it! The old monk scared me to death! He is not a human at all, just a painted skin! I saw with my own eyes that his body was shriveled into paper, It's back again, that is to say, Pindao has traveled the rivers and lakes for many years and escaped with extraordinary means..."

Once the person is safe, the string in his heart is slowly loosened, his mysterious and bragging characteristics are exposed again, and he doesn't even remember the danger that he just faced.

"Painted skin?"

Gu Jinghan frowned, if it was such an ordinary evil as Huapi, Xuanxu might not be able to deal with it, but he would definitely not fail to see it.Having been in such close contact before, he can be sure that Zhishan is definitely not a painted skin.

"That's right," Xuanxu said, "If it wasn't for the early warning of the storm, I really wouldn't have discovered it, the Tao must be high..."

"The Buddha beads on his body have Buddha nature." Gu Jinghan said indifferently, "If it is painted skin, it cannot be touched. Has he ever touched scriptures? Has he ever cast a spell?"

Xuanxu's figure lying on the vine paused, and he said in shock: "Yes, he used scriptures... he didn't get burned, why..."

"Because he's just a little paper man."

A deep male voice sounded from behind, Xuan Xu suddenly turned his head, facing the young monk's dark eyes, as if facing an abyss.
