Chapter 433: The City of Samurai(1/3)
Chapter 433: City of Warriors
The Qingjiao and his wife's cave has existed for many years. They themselves do not know where the passage here will lead. This is a huge maze. If no one leads it in, it may not be possible to get out if it is turned in for hundreds of years.
"Bordeaux, how many years have you and your husband lived here?" Xiao Han asked Bordeaux in a chatty manner as he walked.
"It's been more than 2,500 years!" Bordeaux, "When Dusha and I first came here, there were already people living here. After we beat him away, we lived here."
"Haha, you even stole their old nest?" Xiao Han smiled.
"It can be said that in Yunmeng Swamp, you can't survive without strength." Bordeaux said.
"How did you and Zhong Kui meet?" Xiao Han asked curiously.
"My brother Zhong and I don't know each other. He accidentally discovered this place. I thought he was here to compete for territory with me, so he started fighting. His cultivation was higher than mine at that time, and his pills were emerging one after another. My poison did not harm him at all. We fought for five days and five nights, but we were exhausted. I learned that he just saw that there were many rare herbs here. Those who came to collect herbs were not here to grab territory, so we became good friends." Bordeaux said.
"Aren't you afraid that he came to you on purpose?" Xiao Han asked.
"Hehe, I didn't think so much at that time. Anyway, I just couldn't beat him, and then..." Bordeaux scratched his head embarrassedly.
It is an extremely difficult for ordinary people to walk in the dark, especially the mountainside is full of forks. If you are not careful and take the wrong path, you will not be able to get out!
Xiao Han and Wei Ziting followed Bordeaux carefully and walked step by step into the "crunching" gravel.
"Sister Wei, brother-in-law, we are almost here. I almost got lost when I came here for the first time. Fortunately, I left my breath all the way, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get out of here." Bordeaux explained.
"That's true. With so many curves and forks, even if the gods come here, they will have a headache." Xiao Han said.
Xiao Han took out a magic crystal lamp, and the passage suddenly lit up.
"Bad guy, you have a magic crystal lantern. Why didn't you take it out just now? I almost sprained my ankle by the stone!" Wei Ziting said coquettishly when she saw Xiao Han take out the magic crystal lantern.
"Don't you have it there too? I didn't say I won't let you use it!" Xiao Han said innocently.
"Didn't they think of it?" Wei Ziting gave Xiao Han a fierce look.
"Then I didn't expect it just now."
Jiao Xing is born yin. When Bordeaux saw Wei Ziting's charming look at Xiao Han, his eyes suddenly became straight. In his impression, Wei Ziting always looked like an iceberg. In front of her, he didn't even dare to look at her face, but he had never seen her as a woman!
"Bordeaux, I can warn you that when you arrive at the family of human beings, you should take care of your subordinates for me. If I know that you have done something sorry for Dusa, hehe, be careful I will cut off your thing!" Wei Ziting naturally noticed the strange look in Bordeaux's eyes, immediately regained her cold expression and scolded her.
Bordeaux shivered in fear, his hands involuntarily covered his lower body, and his tiny eyes suddenly showed a hint of fear!
Without that, is there still the fun of being a human being? Bordeaux knows that the human sister in front of her does what she says.
With the guidance of the magic crystal light, Xiao Han and the other two continued to move forward for about 300 meters and came to see the stone wall.
"Brother Zhong is behind this stone wall. This was sealed by himself, and I don't know what he is doing inside!" Bordeaux pointed to the stone wall and said.
"Can you move it away?" Wei Ziting asked.
"It should be possible." Bordeaux.
"Then just move him away a gap that allows people to walk into, and you don't need to move them all away!" Wei Ziting ordered.
"Okay!" Bordeaux stepped forward, his arms stretched naturally, and he blew up at the two edges and corners of the stone wall. He shouted suddenly. The stone wall that was so heavy that he could move the gap of fifty centimeters away!
"Go in and take a look!" Xiao Han took the magic crystal lamp in his hand and walked in the first step! Wei Ziting and Bordeaux followed.
The space inside is not large, it looks about twenty or thirty square meters. Among them is a medicine cauldron, which is covered with dust. It seems that it hasn't been used for a long time.
Behind the medicine cauldron, on a stone bed near the stone wall, on the faded cushion, a lifelike old man sat upright on it, his face looked very peaceful.
"Brother Zhong!" Bordeaux was about to come forward to touch the old man, and Xiao Han shouted decisively, "Don't touch him!"
Bordeaux was so scared that he quickly took his hand back and looked at Xiao Han with a panic look on his face, not understanding why he stopped him.
"He is dead. If you touch him, he will immediately turn into a pile of ashes!" Xiao Han explained.
From the beginning, he couldn't feel any breath of life here. Of course, when he saw Zhong Kui on the cushion, he knew that it was already a virtual shell. Zhong Kui had been dead for many years!
"How is this possible? Brother Zhong is an alchemist?"
"If you die, you will die. If you don't believe it, you should take a closer look and see if he has any characteristics of life?" Xiao Han said.
Bordeaux slowly missed it. After carefully looking up and down, he finally confirmed that this was a dead body.
"Xiaohan, do you know how Zhong Kui died?" Wei Ziting asked. In addition to natural death, the god-level master was killed by others. Zhong Kui's age and cultivation were not yet at the time of natural death. It was very likely that he was killed by others, but here, the possibility of being killed is almost zero, so how did he die?
"You see, his expression was very peaceful when he died, which means that he was not in pain when he died. It was so secret here, so the possibility of him killing was very small. The only explanation may be that he cut off himself on his own." Xiao Han judged based on the appearance.
"You mean, commit suicide?" Wei Ziting said in surprise.
"I don't know whether it was suicide or not. Maybe there are reasons why we don't know yet!" Xiao Han said.
"What should I do if Zhong Kui's body?"
"Frozen it first." Xiao Han thought for a while and said, if it was suicide, there was naturally nothing doubtful, but if it was him, it would probably be complicated. Then Zhong Kui's body is the only clue.
Bordeaux waved his hand and Zhong Kui's body was frozen. The lifelike body was sealed inside, and then Wei Ziting's space ring was placed.
"Look for it and see if there is anything else!" Xiao Han ordered, and then began to observe the scratches on the surrounding stone walls. The natural marks were different from those of artificiality. As long as you look carefully, you will find some useful clues.
The three of them checked very carefully, but found no useful information!
"Does Zhong Kui have a space ring in his hand?" Xiao Han suddenly found that he was ignoring something and asked quickly.
Wei Ziting took out the frozen corpse and saw that there was nothing on Zhong Kui's ten fingers, and Xiao Han couldn't help but feel suspicious in his heart.
"Bordeaux, please recall carefully. When Zhong Kui came to you to lock him up, did he wear a space ring on his hand?" Xiao Han asked Bordeaux.
Bordeaux recalled carefully and said, "It seems there is one. He brought the medicine cauldron and the cushion. I remember when he came, he was empty-handed."
"So where did this space ring go?" Xiao Han frowned immediately. If he could not find this space ring, the previous inference of "suicide" would have been completely overturned.
"Will it be on him?" Wei Ziting said.
"No, I used my spiritual sense to investigate just now. There was nothing else on him except clothes." Xiao Han shook his head and said.
"Then look for it, maybe where it fell?"
In such a huge place, the three of them almost smashed the stone walls and looked for them, but they still couldn't find Zhong Kui's space ring.
In vain, Xiao Han and the other three walked out, sealed the stone chamber again, and brought out the medicine cauldron that Fang Zhong Kui refines elixirs. Xiao Han himself was missing a good cauldron to refine elixirs. The medicine cauldron of the eighth-grade alchemist is naturally not bad, it is considered an unexpected gain!
Dusha was already anxious. Bordeaux had been with Xiao Han and Wei Ziting for so long and had not come back.
"Dusa, clean up, let's take the child away." Zhong Kui died silently in the secret room where he was in seclusion, and his death was very strange. This made Bordeaux feel a little dangerous. If he and Dusa's children continued to stay here, would they follow Zhong Kui's footsteps? So as soon as they returned to the cave where they lived, they ordered Dusa to pack up and prepare to leave with Xiao Han and Wei Ziting.
"I'm so anxious, can't I leave tomorrow?" Dusha still had a little attachment to the old nest that she had lived in for more than two thousand years.
"No, let's go now!" Bordeaux said stubbornly.
Dusha dared not disobey her husband's meaning, so she stood up and packed it up. The couple had no money and property. Instead, they collected a lot of strange things and put them into their own domain space. Then the three of them followed Xiao Han and the other two to leave the cave and leave the Snake Valley!
When Xiao Han and the others came out, it was already dark, and they were delaying in the cave for at least five hours. It was probably almost ten o'clock at night.
Wei Ziting was very familiar with this place. She led the way in front, Xiao Han, Bordeaux, and Tussauds were behind, and arrived at the camp in less than half an hour.
The fire circle is filled with Ning Xiner and others who are constantly adding firewood to burn more vigorously, so looking down in the dark night sky is very eye-catching.
When Xiao Han came back, Ning Xiner and Bingyun couldn't wait to meet him. Bordeaux didn't know what the relationship between these two beautiful human women and Xiao Han, but when he saw Wei Ziting's expression as usual, he shrank back his words.
"Why have we been there so much? We are still waiting for you to come back for dinner!" Ning Xiner and Bing Yun said complainingly, clamping Xiao Han on the left and right.
"I encountered something, and it was delayed." Xiao Han hurriedly explained.
"What's the matter? Have you seen that Zhong Kui?" Bingyun asked in a low voice.
"I saw it, but the person is dead. Be sure to keep it confidential. Don't let the seven boys of the Zhong family know now." Xiao Han lowered his voice and said.
"Ah!" Bing Yun subconsciously covered his mouth, and a hint of horror appeared in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down under Xiao Han's soothing eyes!
"Come on, let me introduce you to you. The handsome man's name is Bordeaux, and his beautiful mother is his wife, named Dusha. From today on, they will be with us." Xiao Han introduced the Jiao King, Jiaohou and his wife to everyone and said.
"King Jiao, queen of Jiao!" A ray of light burst out from Leng Yue's eyes and she said heavily.
"Leng Yue!" Seeing Leng Yue's appearance, the Dragon King Bordeaux immediately took a long breath of air conditioning. He didn't expect to meet Leng Yue here. This is really a narrow road for enemies!
"Bordeaux, should we understand the grievances that many years ago?" Leng Yue looked at Bordeaux coldly and said loudly.
"Miss Leng Yue, it's just a misunderstanding between you and me. I don't want to be an enemy of you." Bordeaux said with an embarrassment on his face.
"Is that so? The dignified Dragon King has become thief-hearted but not brave?" Leng Yue's long sword in his hand "clang" and had already popped out of the scabbard three inches.
"Miss Leng Yue, I was just curious at the time. I didn't expect it to be you. I really don't want to peek at you!" The ugly look of the Dragon King was!
Didn’t you just peek at you for a bath? You were chased by you for thousands of miles. You finally relied on the familiar terrain to get rid of it, but you didn’t expect to encounter it here.
"Peeling?" Xiao Han's forehead was covered with three black lines. There was such a festival between Bordeaux and Leng Yue. Why didn't she mention it to herself along the way?
"Bordeaux, you actually peeked at another woman taking a bath. OK, you..." Dusha pointed at Bordeaux angrily and couldn't speak.
"Dussa, listen to my explanation. I didn't mean it, I just didn't expect it. How could I know that a human woman had the courage to run to the hinterland of Yunmeng Swamp and take off her bath?" Bordeaux explained how innocent she was.
Leng Yue's face turned red suddenly. Although she looked cold and gorgeous, she was a clean woman. She wanted to find a place to clean her because she had been in Yunmeng Swamp for a long time, and she happened to find a big hot spring lake. Unexpectedly, she was discovered by Bordeaux, who was looking for food outside. Her cultivation was no longer weak. When Bordeaux approached her, she found her, and then the two of them started fighting. She was a person who paid great attention to chastity and chased Bordeaux for thousands of miles at once. If Bordeaux was not too familiar with the terrain of Yunmeng Swamp, she really didn't know who would win or lose.
"Bordeaux, don't argue, I think you did it on purpose." Leng Yue said in anger.
"No, I didn't mean it. Look at me, I have a wife and children. You are a human woman and don't look very good. I was just curious and curious for a moment!" Bordeaux hurriedly defended himself.
"Bordeaux, I'm going to dig up your eyes!" Leng Yue trembled all over her anger!
"Why did you dig your eyes!" Bordeaux asked nervously.
