Volume 1: Wrath of the West Chapter 95: The Loyal and Righteous Lady Hong
…
Cross the stone bridge and walk to the left side of the hall.
Originally there was a stone gate here that was ten feet high and eight feet wide.
Now it is blocked by eight huge stone slabs.
Xu Rui tried to push it and shook his head, it was too heavy.
Each of them weighs more than five tons. Unless he breaks through his martial arts innate level, there is no way he can push them.
Fortunately, there are other passages in the Pingshan Underground Palace.
But he was in no hurry to go.
I waited patiently for time to pass little by little until the night fell completely dark.
There was no sunlight at the bottom of the cliff, but unexpectedly, at night, a lot of plants emitting light blue fluorescence appeared.
This originally dark world has a hazy light, making it look like a dream.
Xu Rui stood on the platform in front of the hall, with his hands in seals.
not long time.
There was a violent flapping sound of wings.
A giant rooster, over ten feet long, with golden eyes, steel claws, and a crest like red fire, flapped its wings and fell from the sky.
It's the Angry Chicken.
All things are interdependent and mutually exclusive.
Its appearance instantly made the five poisonous creatures nearby become agitated.
Xu Rui finally managed to get them to behave themselves.
Look at the Angry Chicken again.
After digesting the purple-backed centipede, it grew larger.
It is nearly four meters from beginning to end.
The shoulder height also reached Xu Rui’s chest.
The moment the steel claws fell, the rocky ground was easily penetrated as if it were tofu.
Coo coo.
The chicken's eyes were gleaming with brilliance as it looked at the poisonous creatures nearby, revealing a hungry desire.
Xu Rui had no choice but to stop it using puppetry.
The sound of flapping wings was heard again.
One after another, big roosters flew down from the sky.
Even an ordinary rooster would not die from falling from a distance of four hundred meters, let alone those of him who had been bred with secret medicine and whose physiques had become several times stronger.
Wait until all 126 roosters have come down.
Xu Rui was fully prepared and ready to head towards the underground palace.
Walking to the southeast corner, there used to be stacked rockery here, but after the water dried up, only dead branches and leaves and dried mud were left on the ground.
Move a stone in the corner, and an iron ring appears in a depression the size of a washbasin.
After grabbing it and pulling it up hard, the thick chain was slowly pulled out.
Along with a harsh and heavy friction sound, a stone door on the nearby stone wall slowly slid open.
Ever since Wu Gui discovered this secret passage leading directly to the underground palace, he planned to break away from Chen Yulou and work on his own.
He also wanted to monopolize the treasure in the underground palace.
Moreover, the city wall was too dangerous. If he followed Chen Yulou in, he was not sure he could survive.
However, just as he was about to go in with the chickens and the poison, he stopped and a look of emotion appeared on his face.
"This woman, I clearly told you not to let her come."
On the cliff, the red girl had red and swollen eyes and a determined look on her face. She carried a rope on her back and walked towards the deep ravine.
But she was stopped before she reached the cliff.
"Red girl, he is gone. We all understand your pain. But there are poisonous creatures everywhere under that cliff. If you go there alone, I'm afraid you will never come back."
Partridge Whistle walked out from the darkness.
"Step aside."
There was murderous intent in the deep voice.
"I'm sorry, but I can't watch you die in vain."
Swish.
A scimitar flew out like lightning.
Partridge Whistle turned his head to avoid the flying knife.
The red girl wanted to cum again.
"Hong Gu."
The low voice startled Red Girl's heart and she stopped subconsciously.
Turning around, it was Chen Yulou and Kunlun.
"Don't worry ."
Looking at the red-eyed and murderous face of Miss Hong, Chen Yulou knew that she was truly in love.
At the beginning in Xiangling, countless people hit a wall in front of her, but when it came to Xu Rui, she succeeded in just over three months.
Put away unnecessary thoughts.
"Hong Gu, I understand your feelings, but I can't watch you sacrifice in vain. And I think if Master Xu is still alive, he wouldn't want you to die fearlessly in the mouth of a poisonous creature for him."
"He's not dead, he's just trapped by the poison."
Xu Rui has already established his foundation and has the martial arts strength of the marrow cleansing realm. Only she knows this.
But in the eyes of others, her persistence is more of a struggle after sadness.
"What a strong-willed woman."
Partridge Whistle said in his heart.
Suddenly, he saw Partridge Whistle signaling at him with his eyes.
He understood instantly, and taking advantage of Miss Red's excitement, he rushed forward like lightning and slashed her on the back of the neck with a knife.
The man fainted suddenly.
After helping, Partridge Whistle handed it over to Chen Yulou.
"Brother Queqiao Shao, as a man, it is inconvenient for me to take care of Hong Gu. I wonder if your junior sister Hua Ling can take care of her instead."
"sure."
"Thank you very much."
"Don't be so polite."
Give Hong Gu to Kunlun and ask him to carry her back to Zanguan.
He took one last look at Pingshan in the darkness, with a hint of thought in his eyes.
"Do you want to go down and take a look again?"
He also felt that Xu Rui's death was somewhat strange.
But thinking about that domineering poisonous creature, he gave up the idea.
Too dangerous.
Although both are poisons, the poison in the hall is obviously much stronger than the poison in the Miao village.
If he were bitten, he would probably have to endure the bitter regret.
After returning to the Zanguan, in order to prevent Hong Gu from running away again, they had to clear out a separate room and temporarily lock her up in it, and Hua Ling took care of her on weekdays.
Seeing this through shared vision, Xu Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If Red Girl really comes down, we must rescue her for her safety.
If this happens, all his plans will be disrupted.
Several owls were specially arranged to stay in the pavilion to serve as their eyes and ears, and to provide timely feedback on Hong Girl's situation.
Without any worries, he drove the chickens and the five poisonous creatures into the tunnel.
After all the roosters have come in, pull the iron ring to put the stone door back into place.
The tunnel twists and turns, and after about two or three hundred meters, a staircase leading upwards appears in front of us.
Above the steps is a stone slab three feet wide and eight feet long.
Lift it gently and the stone slab will flip over quickly.
“It turned out to be a flap.”
But there is something pressing on my head.
He moved aside with great effort and saw that there was a stone temple around him and he was in a stone coffin.
There are eight such sarcophagi in the entire hall.
The nine sarcophagi were placed according to the Nine Palaces, and Xu Rui's was on the leftmost Kun position.
After observing the hall for a while and finding nothing unusual, he jumped out quietly.
Xu Rui took the opportunity to look through the other eight sarcophagi, but they were empty.
When I got to the door, I found that the original window frame paper had already been torn into pieces. By activating the Eagle Eye Technique, I could see everything outside clearly.
It was a square paved with bluestone, with a large hall with a hip roof on the left, and a passage deep into the mountain on the right.
In front of it is a much smaller side hall.
He understood his position instantly.
According to what the Five Ghosts knew from their prior investigation, in the entire Pingshan Underground Palace, the only hall that was built with a hipped roof, an architectural style that only the royal family and the Confucius Temple were qualified to use, was the Wuliang Hall.
And below the Wuliang Palace is the nest of the six-winged centipede.
There was no rush to leave. Xu Rui sat cross-legged in meditation with his hands in seals.
His spiritual consciousness connected with the dozen or so birds that he had controlled in advance.
