Chapter 75
After Xie Qingchen finished saying this, the phone hung up, and Qiao Mo called again, and the notification became unavailable.Qiao Mo once again felt that the communication company in the mortal world was really too unreliable.
He could hear from the phone that Xie Qingchen must have encountered some danger, so Qiao Mo immediately called Wu Man.
"Jiutiandongkou of Shuidong Village?" After hearing the place name, Wu Man thought for a while and said, "It's a place name in a scenic spot, so it shouldn't be far from here, but it's been raining so hard recently that several main roads have been closed. I don't know if I can make it through."
Wu Man paused, then suddenly thought of Jing Jing's words a few days ago, and immediately said:
"Jingjing's hometown is here, she should be familiar with it, I asked her to come over and ask."
Immediately after that, she called Jingjing's room. It had been rainy for several days, and the crew stayed in the hotel and did not go out. Jingjing ran to Qiao Mo's room as soon as she received the call.
"Jiutian Cave, I know, it's not too far from here, about a few kilometers to the east, but now the road is closed, I don't know if I can go there, oh, yes, I remembered, there is still a road behind It can go around, as long as there is no landslide, the car should be able to drive through." After Jing Jing said, she looked at Qiao Mo and Wu Man suspiciously and asked, "Are you trying to save tickets? Go to Jiutian Cave in this weather."
Wu Man couldn't explain to Jing Jing in detail, so he could only perfunctorily say: "We are in a hurry, do you know the way? Can you drive us there?"
Jingjing nodded, and stayed in the hotel for a week. She was so tired of being fun that she was about to go moldy. Of course, she would be happy to get out if she had this opportunity.
Wu Man borrowed the keys to an off-road vehicle from Bald Tou, Jing Jing drove, and the three of them headed straight for Shuidong Village. The road was lined with tree branches blown off by the wind.From time to time, rocks rolled from the mountains on both sides hit the car. Jing Jing's driving skills are good, and she avoided the falling rocks several times without any danger, and she exclaimed the thrills while driving.
Turning left and right, turning several small roads and bumping all the way, the car finally arrived at the entrance of Shuidong Village. An old tree half a meter thick was cut off by lightning and lay in the middle of the road. Jingjing sighed road:
"I can only get here, I can't fly over."
After finishing speaking, she pointed to the front and said, "After passing this village, turn to the right and you will reach Jiutian Cave at the end. Shall we go there?"
Qiao Mo said to Jing Jing: "You stay in the car and wait for us, Wu Man and I will go back as soon as we go."
When Jingjing heard this, she immediately became a little unhappy, and said, "I'm going too, it's so boring to stay in the car by myself."
Wu Man laughed and said: "It's windy and rainy outside, there may not be anything in the puddles on the ground, if you accidentally fall, you will have scars on your body."
Hearing this, Jingjing hesitated for a while, and said, "Then come back quickly."
Qiao Mo nodded, got out of the car with Wu Man, and walked forward.
Although it was raining heavily outside, Qiao Mo and Wu Man didn't feel uncomfortable. The two walked quickly all the way. According to Jing Jing, they passed through the village and came to the front of Jiutian Cave. There is stagnant water everywhere in the village, and the villagers have moved to a safe high and low place. Along the way, there is no one in the entire Shuidong Village.
After getting out of the car, Qiao Mo and Wu Man felt an evil spirit at the same time. When they reached the entrance of the cave, the evil spirit became stronger and stronger. Qiao Mo stood at the entrance of the cave, released his spiritual consciousness, and probed inside. Finally, he faintly detects a trace of Xie Qingchen's breath.
"She's inside, let's go in." Qiao Mo said to Wu Man.
Wu Man looked at the black hole and hesitated, but he immediately remembered that Qiao Mo had already broken through the stage of distraction. Although there is a magic power restriction in the mortal world, according to common sense, the mortal world can cultivate higher than him There are not many people left.He stabilized his mind and followed Qiao Mo towards the cave.
On the way here, Jing Jing gave them a brief introduction to Jiutian Cave. It is a natural karst cave. There are nine skylights that are the same as the ground, so it got its name. There are three rivers, three lakes and twelve waterfalls in the cave. These days, there has been heavy rain , rainwater poured into the cave from the skylight, the water level of the Yin River soared, submerged some landscape platforms and scenic spots, and the electrical equipment in the cave was also damaged.
After the two entered the cave, they felt that their feet were slippery, the cave was pitch black, and the sound of water continued.With a wave of Qiao Mo's left hand, Dragon Yin appeared in his palm. The blade of the sword shone with green light, illuminating the road ahead like a green torch.
The two groped forward for a long way. After walking for about 20 minutes, they came to an empty hall with a lake in the center, a platform in the lake, and a large skylight opening above the platform. Then they shot With the light in the cave, Qiao Mo saw Xie Qingchen, half of her body submerged in the water, lying face down on the platform, pink bloodstains could be faintly seen on the stone platform beside her.
Qiao Mo checked the surroundings and found nothing unusual, so he quickly walked to the stone platform, and together with Wu Man, dragged Xie Qingchen up from the water.
Xie Qingchen's face was pale, there were faint bloodstains on the corners of her mouth and forehead, Wu Man checked her breath, and said:
"He's still alive, he should have passed out."
Qiao Mo stretched out his hand to hold her wrist, and injected true energy into her body. After a while, Xie Qingchen's complexion gradually turned better, his chest heaved twice, coughed a few times, opened his mouth, and spit out two mixed mouthfuls. Drenched in blood-colored water, he slowly opened his eyes.
"What's wrong with you? Who hurt you?" Qiao Mo asked.
Xie Qingchen was confused for a moment, and then her eyes became clear again. She looked around and found that the three of them were on the platform in the middle of the lake. Their expressions changed instantly. She stood up, pulled Qiao Mo's skirt, and struggled. Opened the mouth and said:
"Quick, get out of here."
Before her words fell, a gloomy voice sounded in the air:
"Hee hee hee, it's late, here are two more."
Qiao Mo was startled, and raised his head to look around, but he didn't see anyone. Just when he was surprised, he suddenly felt the stone platform below him shake violently. The arm-thick stone pillars were lifted upwards and gathered in the air, forming a huge onion-shaped gabion, trapping the three of them firmly.
Xie Qingchen coughed violently again, and Qiao Mo knew that her lungs must have been injured.She took a deep breath and said with difficulty: "Stone demon." Then she stretched out her hand and pointed to a stone pillar opposite.
Qiao Mo looked at the opposite side, and there was a huge boulder beside the stone pillar. After the lake rose, the Yin River accelerated, and the boulder was displaced a little, revealing a dark stone underneath. tower.
Qiao Mo opened his sky eyes and saw densely packed spells on the boulder. He immediately understood that this boulder was originally used to seal and suppress the monsters below. Unexpectedly, it was accidentally washed away and moved its position. The demon ran out.
Xie Qingchen must have sensed the evil spirit nearby, so he came to investigate, but he missed and was injured.
Qiao Mo handed Xie Qingchen in his arms to Wu Man, stood up and raised his head, looked at the top of the gabion, and said:
"Monster, you escaped on your own and hurt the innocent, so you can catch him without a fight."
There was another smirk in the air: "Hahaha, don't think I don't know, the mortal world will soon be occupied by the demon world, you stupid mortals will become the slaves and food of the monster sooner or later, instead of When the time comes to suffer, why don't you replenish my spiritual power, it seems that you all still have a little cultivation, and my luck is really good."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Mo said, "Who told you that the demon world is going to occupy the mortal world? And who told you that I belong to mortals, you stupid evildoer."
Wu Man shook his head aside and sighed: "With this IQ, let's just stay in the seal."
The stone demon seemed to be enraged, the onion cage shook violently a few times, and then said:
"When I strangle you, you'll know who's stupid."
After all, I saw that the cage quickly became smaller and closed up.A cold light flashed in Qiao Mo's eyes, and he waved the dragon chant in his hand, a beautiful arc-shaped sword flower flashed by, and the stone pillar broke in response.
"what!"
The stone demon screamed, and saw the stone arms retracted one after another, and the stone platform under the three people's feet shrank rapidly and began to shake.
Qiao Mo picked up Xie Qingchen, and winked at Wuman. Wuman understood, and immediately turned into a turtle shape and jumped into the lake, swimming towards the opposite bank. Xie Qingchen put it on the ground, turned around and opened the sky eye, looking at the center of the lake.
There was that weird voice again in the air: "It's useless, hahaha, I'm a stalactite demon, any place in this cave can merge with me, no matter where you go, it's useless. "
Before he finished speaking, a sharp stone thorn protruded from the wall behind Qiao Mo, stabbing straight at Qiao Mo's vest.Qiao Mo noticed the same thing, turned to one side to avoid the stone thorn, and at the same time smashed the stone thorn to pieces with a wave of his wrist.
There was a moment of silence in the cave, except for the sound of splashing water. The rain was getting heavier and falling into the cave along the skylight. The stalactite walls in the cave were filled with water traces, dripping down. hit the water.
Qiao Mo watched the surrounding rocks vigilantly. The stone thorns would suddenly come from different directions. While dodging, Qiao Mo waved the dragon's voice to cut the rocks.Seeing this, Wu Man stayed in the water at the moment, only lifted the head of the turtle out of the water, observing the situation in the cave.
Qiao Mo pondered for a while, and felt that going on like this was not an option. He looked around, inserted the dragon's chant in his hand into the rock on the ground, stretched out his hand to hold the sword hilt, and injected true energy into the dragon's chant, the blade glowed with blue light, Along the water flow on the ground, Qiao Mo's zhenqi was spread, covering the entire cave wall.He closed his eyes, held his breath, integrated his spiritual consciousness with every drop of water in the cave, and checked the rocks covered by the water drops.
At this time, the gloomy voice sounded again: "Hee hee hee, are you ready to catch it without a fight? Then I will start with this woman first, and it can be regarded as a first-come-first-served one."
Qiao Mo and Wu Man were startled when they heard the words, and immediately looked in Xie Qingchen's direction, only to see a stone thorn suddenly protruding from the stone wall above, stabbing straight at Xie Qingchen's heart.
With a wave of Qiao Mo's right hand, a blue air blade flew across the air, cutting off the stone thorn. However, the broken stone thorn was only deflected in one direction, and it still fell towards Xie Qingchen below.
Qiao Mo secretly thought something was wrong, and was about to move towards her, but suddenly saw a figure emerging from the hole beside the stone wall, grabbed Xie Qingchen's shoulder and pulled her back violently, dragging her body away by one meter. distance, avoiding the broken rocks.
Qiao Mo was slightly startled, and after looking at the person, it turned out to be Jing Jing.Jingjing let out a long breath, and made a V gesture to Qiao Mo, with a smug expression on her face.
Qiao Mo frowned slightly, wondering why Jing Jing came here, but at the moment he didn't care about it, his spiritual sense noticed something abnormal, he opened his eyes to look at a rock in front of the cave wall, and he saw Seeing the faint yellow light, Qiao Mo knew that it was the soul of the stone demon. He pulled out the dragon chant, and flew to the wall in a teleport. Chop into pieces.
A shocking scream echoed in the cave, and the entire cave shook. A golden stone the size of a goose egg fell to the ground, shining with a faint light. After a while, the light gradually dimmed, and finally turned into charcoal black. .
Seeing that the stone demon was dead, Qiao Mo breathed a sigh of relief. Wu Man also changed back into a human form, put on his clothes, jumped ashore, walked to Qiao Mo's side, looked down at the stone, and sighed:
"It's a pity that it has been cultivated for thousands of years."
Afterwards, Wu Man looked up at Jing Jing in front of him and said, "Didn't I tell you to stay in the car? Why did you follow? But it was also thanks to you just now."
While speaking, Wu Man stood up and was about to walk towards Jing Jing, while Qiao Mo behind him stretched out his hand to hold him.Wu Man was taken aback, and turned to look at Qiao Mo.
Seeing Qiao Mo's cold face, the vigilance in his eyes was stronger than when he faced the stone demon just now. He raised Dragon Yin, pointed the tip of his sword at Jing Jing's throat, and said coldly:
"Who are you, come out."
