The autumn rain is continuous, there is no summer storm, but there is a chill in the texture.

Yongzhou is close to the capital city, to the south. The air humidity is high. In rainy season, the chill is particularly sticky. If the doors and windows are not closed properly, the bedding, furniture and clothes will be stained with moisture.

In the hall where the wine was drunk a moment ago, the rain outside fell into a strange silence.

A man in the realm of alchemy pondered:

"there will be signs before the rain, but it's nothing."

The atmosphere of silence was broken, and another Wufu echoed: "yes, the fish in the lake should have just come out of the water to breathe."

He brought up a little knowledge about how to foresee rain...

Seeing this, other Wufu expressed their opinions one after another, saying some little knowledge they knew and could foresee the rain.

As he said that, he felt that the young man's "iron mouth is broken" just now was the same thing. The reason why he shocked them was that God was so cooperative.

It's like rain when it rains. It's like the young man's words.

Gongsun Xiu took a sip of the wine. Seeing that the old Taoist was silent, he frowned and asked:

"Taoist Qinggu, do you seem to have a different opinion?"

The crowd immediately looked at the old Taoist.

The old Taoist with the name of "Green Valley" suddenly regained his mind, did not answer immediately, but was silent for a few seconds, and said in a deep voice:

"then the old Taoist has something to say, the sky is unpredictable, some rain has signs, some rain has no signs. Some rain has signs, but no rain, some rain has no signs, but come.

"I know I'm going to the grave tonight. I watched the sky last night, but I didn't get any sign of rain today."

The old Taoist looked at the lake and said, "this is the impermanent rain."

"Sun yu'er slowly breathed in the water and thought," there's no way out of the lake. "

She was refuting the words of the warrior just now.

All of a sudden, people's expressions became strange again.

After a while, the Wufu of refining the spirit realm said tentatively, "if it's not a coincidence, then what kind of realm is he?"

In the eyes of the vulgar Wufu, this kind of operation of forecasting the celestial phenomena is simply an immortal means.

Not only the martial arts, but also the common people, the people who can predict the celestial phenomena and pray for rain are all the land gods.

"the sorcerer in the south of Xinjiang can only know the God of heaven, earth and rain.

"What's more, it's certain that the characters who master similar means are of frightening high grades."

The soldiers looked at each other with awe inspiring heart.

Gongsun Xiu got up and walked out of the hall. He looked at yangbai Lake in the rain. It was so vast and cold in autumn that the shadow of "wangjiyufang" had disappeared.

"Have you forgotten your appointment with that man..."

Gongsun Xiu murmured and repeated this sentence.

...

in late autumn, the rain is lingering enough. After two hours, it still doesn't stop.

In the latrine of the building ship, Xu Qian took out coir raincoat and bamboo hat from the fragments of the book. When he traveled outside, he naturally prepared rain gear.

The boat of wangjiyufang slowly berthed on the shore, and the diners dispersed.

Mu Nanzhi frowned and carefully looked at the road, trying to get around the muddy place, but it was only in vain.

Embroidered shoes are still covered with mud, which makes her very unhappy.

Aren't you the reincarnation of the flower god? It's reasonable to say that you should like rainy days and mud very much..... Xu Qi'an looks at her sulky appearance, and has a bad feeling in her heart.

Mud, mud... If I hide in the mud, no one can find it..... No, stop. I can't think about it any more. I'm a human being, not a loach......

he tried his best to fight against the side effects of dark bug, and then he used dark bug one after another, causing strong sequelae.

Back at the inn, Xu Qi'an asked the waiter to bring good wine and delicious food and start his second lunch.

Mu Nanzhi entered the room, and kicked the embroidered shoes behind the door. She walked around the room with her little bare feet.

She opened the window, immediately closed it, pursed her lips and said, "I don't like Yongzhou at all. It's damp and cold."

It's the first winter for her to leave the palace and rest as a princess. She said goodbye to the luxurious floor heating. It's going to be a tough winter.

"Know cold, still barefoot son?"

Xu Qi'an lowered his head and looked back.

Square inch skin, round light, white Luo embroidery and red Tori... This kind of jade foot can be called a miracle.

Compared with Xu nanmu, there is no one who has ever slept in this place.

This is because the women in the Department of teaching workshop have to practice dancing, and they can't raise weak, boneless, white and red feet. Second, beauties are also divided into three, six and nine grades. If they are human beings, they have defects and can't be perfect.Only the most beautiful woman in front of her, the reincarnation of Huashen, is really Zhong lingyuxiu. Even the most critical eyes can't find the flaws in her body and appearance.

Well, the above evaluation is a little hasty. After all, Xu Qi'an and she haven't got to the bottom yet.

"When will you be able to eat like this?" The princess sat at the table, dragging her cheek and looking at him with a smile.

"Since being beaten and abandoned by others, I've enjoyed what I eat, and I'm in good health." Xu Qian laughed at himself.

He quickly ate the delicious food at the perfect table, and called to the waiter to clean up the plate. Mu Nanzhi quietly retracted a pair of jade feet into the bottom of the skirt.

"Hide one's strength and nourish one's obscurity" this, she almost has no teacher, as the charm infinite flower god reincarnation, hide the face is not enough, the plump and graceful figure also has the extremely strong attraction to the man, therefore, her clothes, all intentionally increased the size.

As the sky gradually darkened, Xu Qi'an stood by the window and looked at it for a moment, saying:

"I'm going to the underground palace in the evening to see the thousand year old corpse."

Mu Nanzhi: ∑ (っっ) っ

"I'll check the state of that thing and borrow some things from it. Don't worry. I'll be back before dawn. "

Xu Qi'an said with relief.

Just at this time, a carriage passed by, Xu Qi'an's figure suddenly disappeared, appeared under the carriage, he was hidden in the shadow, with the carriage away.

Xu Qian kept jumping between several carriages, gradually approaching the city gate, and then out of the city in the shallow reflection of an ox cart.

With his current control of dark insects, the maximum distance of shadow jump is 50 meters, and the time of hiding in the shadow can't exceed 15 minutes.

The ox cart goes west along the official road. The driver is an old man. Judging from the leaves left on the cart, the old man is a vegetable farmer in a nearby village.

Xu Qian came out of the shadow and watched the cart go away. Then he took out an ordinary knife from the fragments of the book and turned to the south.

At this time, the sky was green and the night was approaching. He was walking alone in the rain in his green clothes, with a knife and no umbrella.

Xu Qian walked alone in silence, leaving the official road, leaning towards the southern mountains in the mud. After walking for a long time, the outline of Nanshan became clear.

At this time, he saw a dark pit out of the depression.

There is decaying grass at the mouth of the pit. It seems that the soil is soft and collapsed.

Xu Qi'an took a deep look at the pit and resolutely turned away.

A few minutes later, he turned back.

"It's still early. If I go to the underground palace now, I'll find their way..."

"it's just that today's two hours of" being alone "haven't been achieved, and everything is for cultivation..."

"Damn, I never thought that one day, a pit would be more attractive to me than a woman..."

he jumped in with a twitch on his face.

...

Nanshan mountains.

Somewhere on a flat mountain road, several tents were set up on the cleared space.

In this area of mountain forest, there are people from Gongsun family who are responsible for driving away the scattered people who try to sneak into the mountain.

Sitting in the tent with sun Gongming and his family, they drink tea.

When the curtain of the tent was lifted, Gongsun in coir raincoat strode in, taking off his hat and saying:

"Xiuer, it's raining harder and harder. We either go down to explore as soon as possible or come back when it's sunny. I'm afraid the rain will make the cave collapse again."

Gongsun Xiu frowned, shook his head and said, "sixth uncle, wait a minute. If the things in the tomb don't bite, we won't go down."

In fact, what she said in the boat during the day was half true and half false. It was a hunter who first discovered the underground palace, but he was dead.

Because I didn't go home for a long time, other hunters in the village came to find a broken arm in the cave, which seemed to be torn off by something.

In addition to the broken arm, other parts of the body were not found, so the hunters did not dare to stay more and left in a hurry with the broken arm.

Then the abnormality here attracted the officials and people in the Jianghu. No one who went deep into the bottom of the tomb came back alive, including two alchemy masters of Gongsun family.

Those people may have died in the tomb, or in unknown monsters.

In order to catch the cannibal monster in the tomb, Gongsun Xiu hooked the pig's head and threw it into the hole, trying to lure it with the smell of blood.

"The rope didn't move."

Gongsun shook his head to Ming.

"Wait a minute."

Old Taoist Qinggu said with a smile: "the Yin objects in the big tomb stay in the tomb all the year round and lack food. Their frequency of eating is not high. They only hunt when they are extremely hungry.

"If you don't take the bait tonight, I suggest you keep waiting."

A young man of Gongsun family asked curiously, "do you mean zombies when Taoist priest said Yin things?"Old Taoist Qinggu said, "well, it's a zombie. It could be other monsters or puppets. In view of its flesh and blood characteristics, it should be the first two. Zombies and monsters are afraid of light after staying underground for a long time. If you want to catch it, you have to do it at night

Gongsun Xiu added: "there are many experts who die in it. Ordinary zombies don't have the strength."

Raindrops on the tent, crackling, when there is only one voice left in the world, it highlights a sense of quiet.

Gongsun Xiu was drinking hot tea and suddenly said, "I met an expert in yangbai Lake today. If I could invite that expert, I would be sure to go down the tomb this time."

Gongsun Xiangming was stunned and said, "what's the matter? Let's talk about it in detail."

Gongsun Xiu will encounter a man in green things, simply said again.

Gongsun frowned at Ming: "it's not necessarily an expert. Maybe it's just bullshit or coincidence."

Green Valley old way smile, don't refute, way: "six ye say of reasonable, all just old way of guess."

It's true.

Gongsun Xiu asked: "sixth uncle, you used to live in the capital for a few years. Have you ever heard of Xu Qian?"

Gongsun shakes his head and laughs:

"the capital is crouching tiger, hidden dragon, but the experts are generally low-key, not temperament, but no one dares to be high-profile and domineering in the capital. The ten golden gongs of the watchman Yamen and the six disciples of the supervisor are very powerful and low-key top figures.

"In addition, there are also experts in the army, senior officials and Keqing in your mansion. The number of four grade experts is far beyond your imagination. These people are real, but they have no reputation.

"Those famous heroes in the world dare not fart when they enter the capital. Even if Xu Qian is really a master, I don't know. "

"It's really because of this that Xu Yinluo is different," said a young son of the Gongsun family

Since his debut, Xu Yinluo has always been high-profile, and more and more high-profile. In the past, the high-profile was only to solve cases. Later, he was to behead the Duke of the state. Recently, he was high-profile again, so the emperor died.

At the beginning, when the Imperial Palace newspaper reached Yongzhou, no one dared to believe it.

Many people in Yongzhou went to the capital to find out.

Gongsun waved his hand to Ming Dynasty: "how many people like Xu Yinluo came out in the 600 years since the founding of Dafeng?"

Gongsun Xiu listened with a smile. Recently, she chatted with her elders and peers. She always talked about the God like man.

In front of outsiders or men, she will keep a certain reserve. In front of the family sisters, she will let go and talk about Xu Yinluo with them.

Just then, a roar came from outside the tent:

"Miss, sixth master, that thing is hooked."

In the tent, the atmosphere suddenly changed. Gongsun Xiu was the first to rush out of the tent, Gongsun Xiangming was the second, and then Gongsun's children.

In the rain, more than a dozen armed men were holding torches splashed with kerosene, and several armed men were pulling a rope with a baby's small arm. The rope collapsed straight and went deep into the cave.

Finally, Gongsun Xiu was surprised and pleased. He was surprised that several martial artists could not pull the Yin thing out. He was glad that he didn't wait for nothing tonight.

"Oil, barbed wire!"

With both hands, sun Gongfu and Ma Jiaofu made an order to weave the rope.

"Whining..."

a baby's shrill cry came from the cave, and a dark shadow was pulled out, shaking in the wind and rain, and shaking in the fire, which reflected the appearance of this Yin object.

He is a lizard, with a human like face. His eyes are gray and dull. His vision seems to be very poor.

Black blood flowed from his mouth, and the hook went deep into his jaw.

The Yin object was illuminated by the fire, and it gave out a shrill cry like a baby. It turned and was about to escape back to the cave.

"Cast the net!"

Gongsun roars at Ming.

Gongsun's children, who had been ready for a long time, threw out their big net. Cover the Yin.

Clank..... The monster's power is infinite. Its claws tear the barbed wire and break a big hole. It comes out of the net and continues to escape to the hole.

It sensed the danger and burst out with terrible force.

Gongsun Xiu falters and is almost turned over by it. This beautiful woman, who has stepped into Huajin at a young age, suddenly turns red, and her smooth forehead is blue.

She raised her foot, hooked the rope, wound it a few times, and then stepped on it.

Yinwu's head was pulled up suddenly, and more black blood gushed out of his mouth.

On this side, Gongsun Xiangming seized the opportunity, yelled angrily, drew out the iron sword, ran the Qi machine, and stabbed at the throat of the Yin object. There was no cutin covering, which was a weak part of protection.

The rain curtain was torn in an instant.

Unfortunately, the raindrops that came into contact with this sword seemed to drop on a piece of hot iron, whirring and turning into a puff of smoke."Poof!"

The iron sword pierces into the throat of the Yin object, and the black blood immediately comes out, just like a spring.

"Ying......"

the Yin object screamed bitterly, its slender and powerful tail swept across the chest, and "Dang" beat Gongsun Xiangming on the chest, which made him fly like a broken kite.

Copper and iron!

The Yin thing that suffered a great loss aroused his anger. Instead of thinking about escaping, he turned around and threw himself into a dark shadow to Gongsun Xiu.

Gongsun xiuchao, who has a hunch of crisis, rolls over and avoids perfectly. The two alchemy realms behind her also evade, but the other three can't predict in advance because they don't have the supernatural power of alchemy realms.

Broken bones and broken tendons, killed on the spot.

After several turns, Gongsun Xiu rose without any stagnation. Only the huajinwu can make such a mellow and natural movement. She snatched the jar from a warrior and kicked it to the Yin object.

Other warriors followed suit.

Bang bang!

The jar was smashed on the thick horny armor of the vulva, and the fire oil drenched it.

Gongsun Xiu, holding a torch, runs wildly. In the process, she suddenly falls on her knees, leans back and shovels. Just at this time, the genitals support her limbs and kill Gongsun Xiu.

As soon as both sides go up and down, they pass by by by mistake.

The warrior's intuition made her predict the attack of the Yin object.

Gongsun Xiu calmly raised the torch, crossed the monster's belly, ignited the fire oil, and the flame spread rapidly, devouring the Yin things.

The rain can't extinguish the fire oil. The Yin objects scream and roll wildly in the mud, trying to put out the flames.

Gongsun Xiu calmly issued the order: "spear!"

More than a dozen armed men pulled out the prepared spears, twisted their waist and swinging their arms, and struggled to throw them.

In the sound of "puff, puff", some spears pierced the burning and brittle cutin and nailed it into the Yin object; some spears were bounced away by the cutin.

Soon, the Yin object was punctured into a hedgehog, it gradually no longer struggled, the flame was still burning, and the air was filled with a scorching smell and strange stench.

This kind of Yin thing is full of poison, and the smell of the corpse is extremely poisonous.

Cheers were everywhere.

The son of Gongsun family found Gongsun Xiangming in the bush. The sixth brother of the patriarch suffered a lot of internal injuries. His body was pale, and he was almost broken.

"Sixth uncle, are you ok?"

The muddy Gongsun Xiu came forward to greet him.

"You can recover in half an hour."

Gongsun Xiangming swallowed a few pills of pills and went back to the tent to cure his wounds.

In the battle just now, the granddaughter of Gongsun family, who is outstanding, takes old Taoist Qinggu and others to check the body of the half charred Yin objects.

"You cover your nose and mouth. It's very poisonous."

Old Taoist Qinggu tore off a piece of wet clothes, covered his mouth and nose in one hand, and examined the monster's body with a torch in the other.

They gathered around the corpse to inquire.

"What kind of monster is this?"

"There is no crisis warning, no demon Dan, it seems that it is not a demon clan, but the speed and strength are better than those who refine the divine realm."

"No, it's better than copper and iron. I didn't see that uncle Liu had just been whipped away. If he fought alone, I'm afraid sister Xiu is not his opponent. "

In the discussion voice, Gongsun Xiu asked the Taoist Qinggu's opinion: "what do Taoist priest think?"

Old Taoist Qinggu pondered:

"this should be a tomb beast. It has been living underground for too long. It has been reproducing and changing from generation to generation. It has long been a brand new monster. I can't see what its ancestors are.

"With the strength of the tomb beast, the identity of the tomb owner should not be underestimated."

People are nervous and excited. The crisis is directly proportional to the income. The greater the crisis, the greater the harvest. Of course, the opposite is true, so they may face greater danger next.

Half an hour later, Gongsun took care of his internal injuries. A group of people lit torches and went down to the tomb with weapons and tools.

There are 18 people in the exploration team. The lowest level of cultivation is Qi training, and the highest level is Gongsun Xiu, who has five grades of strength.

In the rivers and lakes, such a team has been able to dominate the counties.

Weapons include spears, fire oil, barbed wire, chains, insect powder, and black dog blood.

When they got out of the cave, they held up their torches and looked around.

The more they went in, the more surprised they were. They thought the collapse was only part of it, but after walking for a long time, there were still obvious signs of collapse around them. If they didn't see a few Cyclobalanopsis walls occasionally, they would have doubted whether they had found the wrong place.

"It looks like it collapsed completely, burying a lot of tombs."

Gongsun Xiu holds a torch and walks in the underground palace with rocks.

"There has been no earthquake in Yongzhou in recent years. How could the good ones collapse?"

Gongsun frowned at Ming.As they continued to explore, they came to a half collapsed tomb. Half of the tomb was buried by rocks, and the other half was decorated with sarcophagus. The sarcophagus was scattered with broken arms, legs and heads.

These stumps and broken arms are black and thin, and they are not ordinary people's arms.

"Zombies..."

old Taoist Qinggu frowned: "it must have been dug out and eaten by that Yin thing."

As soon as he finished, Gongsun Xiu frowned and said, "no, the fracture of this hand is even. It was cut off by a sharp weapon."

Gongsun Xiangming analysis: "it may be caused by Yin claws."

The claws of the Yin object are not worse than the sharp point of the refined iron knife.

Gongsun Xiu nodded and accepted this statement. After a while of searching, they found no funerary objects.

After another quarter of an hour's walking, they never met the second one. Unexpectedly, it was calm.

Until a majestic stone gate appeared in front of the crowd.

At the sight of the stone gate, the spirit of the people was aroused. Based on the scale of the stone gate, it is not difficult to judge that behind the gate is the main tomb and the "bedroom" of the owner of the tomb.

Gongsun Xiu stops, looks at the two Wufu in the spirit refining realm, and orders them to push the stone gate.

Wufu in this realm has keen intuition and can effectively avoid organs and crises.

Zaza......

the stone gate was slowly pushed open, and the two men holding torches turned back and said, "safe!"

Gongsun Xiu was relieved and went into the stone gate with some friends who couldn't wait.

She first paid attention to the situation of the torch. Seeing that it was only a little dim, she restored to its original state and was immediately relieved. It seemed that because of the collapse, the underground palace was filled with breathing air, so there was no need to worry about suffocation.

Then she was stunned to see the light of the torch shining in front of her.

There is no road ahead. To be exact, there is no road in her imagination.

The chapped ground is strewn with large or small stones, and the stones are piled up. It gives people the feeling that it's gravel and messy ore, not the tomb.

"There's a collapse here, too?"

A swordsman of the river and Lake said in a deep voice.

"Bring me a can of kerosene!"

Gongsun Xiu took a can of kerosene from the clansman's hand, wiped the torch at the mouth of the can, and then threw it out.

Bang!

The jar burst in the air, and the fire and oil in it splashed all around, turning into dazzling sparks.

The whole tomb suddenly lit up, and people took the opportunity to see the situation of the main tomb. It did collapse here. It is more accurate to describe it as a grotto than a tomb.

Apart from the piles of rubble and the jagged stone walls, there is nothing else in the main tomb.

Suddenly, Gongsun narrowed his pupils and said in a low voice, "what's that?"

A group of people looked along his eyes, vaguely saw a shadow sitting in the distance, but at this time, the burst of streamer fell, dim, quiet burning, unable to illuminate the distance.

Gongsun Xiu immediately made a response. With her sense of direction, she threw out the torch in her hand. The torch rotated and flew to the distance, landing, splashing dazzling sparks.

It didn't fall right in front of the shadow.

The power control of the warrior is subtle.

The torch showed the real face of the figure. He was dressed in a shabby yellow robe that could not see the age. His hair was sparse, his skin was covered with facial bones, and he was dry blue black.

His nose had only two nostrils, his eyes closed and he didn't move.

This is a very old body, it is not lying in the coffin, but sitting in the ruins.

Zombies?

No, how can a zombie know how to meditate... Or it's an extraordinary Zombie... Gongsun Xiu, a brave artist, is about to lead us close.

Unexpectedly, the corpse opened his eyes first, with a pair of dark eyes embedded in his slightly empty eyes.

Seeing the creatures break into the territory, their dark eyes flash across the red awn. The mummy opens his mouth and sucks hard.

All of a sudden, the cyclone rolled, and the mummy's mouth seemed to turn into a vortex, drawing everything around him inward.

Including Gongsun Xiu, the 18 martial artists felt a terrible force to lock themselves in, and pulled themselves closer to the mummies.

Well, what a terrible zombie, this is not a mortal can contend with..... Gongsun Xiu felt a chill in her heart. She was shocked by fear and regretted, and had many emotions. Later, she felt that something was breaking away from her.

Trying to turn her eyes and look to her side, her eyes suddenly turned round.

One of his companions, his flesh and blood shriveled rapidly, his skin wrinkled and adhered to his bones. After more than ten breath, he turned into a corpse, and his whole blood was snatched away.

People present, more or less lost their Qi and blood, and those with strong cultivation, such as Gongsun Xiu, can persist for a period of time.

Those who are low in cultivation will be drawn to work within 30 breath.Get blood essence supplement, dry corpse like a tiger add wings, cyclone and strengthen a few minutes.

The number of deaths keeps increasing, two, three, four......

the survivors are more and more scared. Gongsun Xiangming's eyes are full of blood, his eyes are full of blood, and his body muscles spasm. He tries to resist, but it doesn't help, and his blood is losing madly.

He has been wandering in the river and lake for many years. He has never met such a terrible and strange zombie, nor has he ever felt so powerless and frightened.

Little by little, I see myself dying.

Old Taoist Qinggu was not a martial arts man, so he was at the end of the camp. Fortunately, he didn't die, but he was still doomed. He was ten years old all of a sudden, just like an old man.

Want to, want to die here?... Gongsun Xiu's heart is filled with despair. At this time, she suddenly thinks of the man in green who she met in the daytime, and he warned herself that the underground palace is dangerous.

Now it has come true.

Yes, by the way, he said that if there is an irresolvable danger in the tomb, Gongsun Xiu has no choice but to be a living horse doctor on a dead horse. He said in a loud voice:

"have you forgotten the agreement with that man?"

This sentence seems to contain some power, the terrible cyclone disappeared, blood no longer loss.

The nine surviving warriors, together with an old Taoist, sat on the ground with their knees soft.

"Come on, you're saved!"

Gongsun Xiangming was both surprised and happy, and his heart was filled with joy, confusion and confusion.

Others, too, don't understand why this strange zombie suddenly shows mercy.

It's really, really useful... Gongsun Xiu opened her eyes, and she just couldn't believe it.

"There are not many people who have made an agreement with me. He is the only one in the world. What's the relationship between you and him..."

the mummy was excited when he remembered that he had made an agreement with him that he would return and return his fortune in ten years:

"where is he? Does he have something for you to give to me? Does he have something for you to give to me! Little girl, answer me quickly
