When we arrived at the foot of Tianxuan Mountain, we didn't know if Lu Yao had deceived Xuanqing out of Qihuangmen, so we didn't act rashly for the time being.After waiting for a while, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy came down from the mountain.I was still very nervous when I saw that Taoist boy walking down.Xu Buyan even told me to hide so as not to be discovered.But when I saw that Taoist boy with a sluggish expression and a stiff walking step, I said wait first, maybe the situation is not as bad as we thought.After the Taoist boy walked in front of us, I took a closer look.There was no god in his eyes, and he glanced down slightly.No, it's not like the eyes of a normal person.I could see at a glance that this little Taoist boy was blinded by a ghost."
Lu Yao," I asked tentatively.Dao Tong's eyes still glanced down, his expression was very dull, and then he spoke: "Daoist Xuanqing has already left the Qihuang Gate, you can do it."
However, there is only one hour, hurry up. ”After saying this, Dao Tong turned around and walked towards the mountain.I glanced at Xu Buyan, and he nodded, indicating that he was credible.I hummed, said let's go, and then immediately followed Dao Tong and walked up the mountain.It used to take me about ten minutes to get to the gate of Qihuang Gate.Nowadays, it only takes me less than two minutes, and I don't breathe and my face doesn't blush.After entering the gate, the Taoist boy led us towards the path on the right.After walking for about ten minutes, I was a little anxious.I didn't do anything, and nearly a third of the time passed.Just as I was about to ask the boy where the python was, he walked up to a big rock and stopped.I saw the big rock, two meters high, like an egg, pointed and small at the top, and large and round at the bottom.Moreover, its surface is smooth and can reflect a faint figure.I looked around.It's all wasteland, and there are no buildings, so I asked the boy for some reason, "What are you bringing us here for?"
He didn't speak, but pointed to the big rock.I was just about to walk up and touch the big rock, but Xu Buyan told me not to move, which startled me.Then he walked over, looked closely at the scarlet lines on the base of the large stone, and then walked around the stone to its back.Looking back, I noticed that the back of the stone was actually hollowed out.In other words, the egg-like stone I saw was actually only in front."
What the hell is this?"
I asked Xu Buyan.He took a closer look, and then said to me, "It seems that Lu Yao has discovered the location of the python." ”I pointed to the empty shell egg and said that it was amazing that the python was inside.Xu Buyan said: "This thing looks like a sculpture, I don't know, I thought it was an ornament in the Qihuang Gate or something."
But in fact, it is a mechanism. ”As he spoke, he walked a meter to the right of the stone, then crouched down and gently brushed away the dirt from the surface.Unexpectedly, under the dirt, there was a stone that looked like an egg, but it was only about 20 centimeters high.Xu Buyan stretched out his right hand.He pressed it against five small, shallow indimples on the stone, and then recited the incantation.The stone slowly sank, and then the surface of the two-meter-tall stone in front of me began to become smoother, and the figure could be clearly reflected.But my figure, dressed in armor, looks like a general of the Ming Dynasty.I turned around, but I didn't expect the figure to follow suit.That's right, that's what I used to be."
This thing, called the Past Life Mirror, can reflect what you looked like in your past life."
With that, Xu Buyan walked over.His figure.He was dressed in tattered clothes, his hair was messy, and his face was dirty.I couldn't help but laugh and say, your past life was really miserable.Xu Buyan coughed and said that time was running out.Let's go in first, the python is inside.With that, he walked towards his figure, and then he and the figure came face to face, and then his body disappeared from sight.It's amazing to see Xu Buyan go in, the goldfish is more anxious than me, and he followed without hesitation.Then Wei Changfu, and finally me.After entering, a chill suddenly rushed over my face, and I had goosebumps all over my body.It turned out that in front of my eyes was a huge cave.I glanced at it, and the cave was hemispherical, about 100 meters long and 20 meters high, and it was very spacious.On the top of the cave, there are many stalactites hanging upside down, generally six or seven meters long.And the bottom is very sharp, like the tip of a gun.The surrounding rock walls are also uneven and pitted.In front of us, there is a lake.It's said to be a lake, but it's not that big.Therefore, it is better to call it a large pool.There are lights in the pool, so even in this cave where no sunlight is heard, the water is bright.And the light hits the rock wall, and it is diffusely reflected throughout the cave, so the light in it is still bright.In the middle of the large pool, there is a stone platform, layer by layer, and a chair is placed on the top, as if someone often comes here to sit.There was silence all around, and although I didn't see the python, I didn't ask Xu Buyan.Because I know in my heart that since Lu Yao is blinding that Taoist ghost, let him bring us here.That means it's very likely that the python is here, so be quiet and pay close attention to your surroundings.At that moment, there was a loud bang in the pool.Wei Changfu shouted at the same time: "There is something in the water" A few of us immediately stared at the pool, and saw that there were indeed ripples on it, as if something was really stirring the water just now.Looking intently at the clear water, my breathing slowly became heavy, as if I was carrying something on my back, and I was a little out of breath.Maybe I was too nervous, because when Xu Buyan talked about the python, I was deeply impressed.The ripples in the pool have completely dissipated, but we still haven't seen any pythons.After all, the water in the pond is only the middle part and is relatively clear.Because there's a light there.When you got around, it was pitch black and you couldn't see anything.If there is something hidden inside, we mortals really can't find anything with the naked eye."
There's no way to find it that way."
I said and immediately looked at Xu Buyan."
Lead the snake out of the hole" Xu Buyan nodded, took out a paper figure, and then tapped its eyebrows with a cinnabar pen.Then, he took out his small gourd and released a ghost.In the end, he made the ghost take the body of a paper man.The paper man's body immediately plumped up, not as shriveled as before.But its eyebrows were spotted with cinnabar, so it couldn't move.Picking up the paper figure that had already returned to his soul, Xu Buyan stared at the stone platform, and then threw the paper figure over.The paper figure just landed on the stone platform, motionless.After waiting quietly for a few minutes, there was no movement in the pool, as if there was nothing in it at all, and we were busy with our work.Can't wait.I said that the python was not in the pool, or that it could see that it was a paper man, so it was not tempted, "I can smell the demonic aura of the python, it is in the pool."
But it hasn't moved until now, probably because it's not interested in paper figures.After all, it has always been eaten alive. ”I gritted my teeth and said that since this is the case, then I will be the bait, and after speaking, I took the White Dragon Demon Sword and walked towards the wooden plank bridge that connected to the stone platform in the center of the pool.Xu Buyan didn't stop me if he wanted to, and besides, this method is really feasible.Walking on the boardwalk, I watched my surroundings carefully to see if there were any ripples or splashes in the dark water.Every step on the wooden plank bridge, there will be a sound on the ground, very crisp, in this cave, it is particularly clear.My breathing became faster.His heartbeat also became faster, and he repeatedly clenched the White Dragon Demon Sword in his hand.By the time I was halfway there, I was drenched in sweat.I was too nervous to stand in the middle, and I looked back and forth, and there seemed to be a figure swimming in the dark water.But the water in the pool was too dark for me to see clearly."
Dongfang, be careful, that thing seems to be heading towards you," Xu Buyan reminded loudly.I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, didn't dare to blink my eyes, and stared at the pool in front of me.Time passed very slowly, and it felt like half an hour had passed.But only a few seconds have passed.At that moment, I noticed a shadow swimming under my feet under the boardwalk.When I looked closely, I saw that the thing was almost the thickness of a basin, black and gray, faintly gray.After seeing it, I couldn't help but gasp, and then hurriedly looked back, and the pool behind me was pitch black and nothing.Did I be dazzledJust as I felt dazzled, the boardwalk suddenly shook.I immediately crouched down somewhat.Lower your center of gravity.But the plank bridge was jolting up and down as if it had been caught.I panicked and ran back.After running a few steps, the plank bridge that came back snapped and flew upwards, as if something was exerting force from below, and broke it at once.I hurried a few steps back and watched as the disconnected plank bridge fell into the water and then slowly sank.Seeing that the situation was not good, I immediately ran towards the central stone platform, which at least was considered land.As I ran forward, there was a thudding sound from the boardwalk behind me.Don't look at it.It must have been broken, and the voice was very fast, as if it was telling me that if I ran slower, I would hang up, which made me even more nervous.When I ran to the stone platform, I turned around and saw that the boardwalk had all fallen into the pool.I stood on the stone platform and looked around, as if I had been isolated, and I had become so lonely."
Did you see anything just now," I hurriedly asked Xu Buyan.Xu Buyan just wanted to answer, and then pointed at me with his finger, his expression became frightened, and his mouth was open, but he didn't speak.I felt a strong sense of moisture coming from behind me, and at the same time, the hairs on my back stood up, and I felt a panic in my heart
