The fire jumped in each of our eyes, and under our feet was a real mountain of fire and swords.

Monk Luo Que threw a stone downwards, which immediately triggered the mechanism of the underground ancient city. The fire stretched for dozens of miles, like an endless hell.

"It's enough to get here." Monk Luoque repeated again, "Going down further is Abi Purgatory."

I was still frightened and asked him: "How do you know what's going on down here?"

He smiled and took out a book from his arms: "Because of it. The "Jialing Kaiwu" written by the previous head of the Gongshu Family family used to be a bestseller within the Ninth Family."

We all looked at Liu Sa.

Liu Sa looked embarrassed: "Why are you looking at me? I'm only interested in living girls. He said it was a bestseller before, and I'm still in my prime."

"Bah." We all said in unison.

"Since we can't go down, how can we reach the Immortal City?"

"Easy, climb in."

"Climb? Climb from where?"

The monk said: "Think about it, since this is a puzzle created by the previous Incense Division, there must be a way to break it.

But for those who are unwilling to use their brains, there is only one way to die.

This place is said to be an immortal city, but after all, it is just a sleeping place for turtles among silkworms. You pay attention to Feng Shui, and you know this metaphysics better than I do. Feng Shui and Feng Shui are naturally inseparable from water.

Look at that moat, that's where we enter the city."

We looked into the distance. The moat was more than ten miles away from us. There were blazing flames below. How easy was it to get across?

"Follow me." Monk Luoque led us to move laterally along the mountain wall and found a very small cave entrance on the nearby mountain wall. "This is a thief's cave."

"Nonsense, I still can't tell it's a burglary hole?" Er Pang rolled his eyes at him.

I said: "Did the people who put the rope dig it?"

Monk Luoque nodded: "I heard that it was a group of savages who did it. I have to admire these people for actually thinking of using this method to enter the ancient city when their eyes darkened."

The so-called savages refer to the unnamed Colonel Mojin. Tongyuan is a very domineering organization. All the famous tomb robbers in the world will have their names in Tongyuan. The unnamed tomb robbers are savages.

This hole is so small that there is basically no room for movement. When I got in, I could only crawl forward slowly. It was dark and humid here, and because the diameter of the hole was very long, there was no air circulation.

It is easy for people to suffocate to death halfway up the climb, or die from claustrophobia.

I hesitated for a moment and had to get in.

As soon as I entered, I almost suffocated to death due to the musty smell inside the cave.

I could only crawl forward bravely, while the second fat man behind me was complaining: "This hole is too small, why can't they dig it bigger?"

"The rocks here are very brittle, and opening a tunnel that is too big will easily cause the mountain to collapse." I explained to Erpang.

This hole was obviously dug out with a shovel, so the diameter of the hole is not as big as the hole made by explosives. In order to save time and effort, it is just enough for the tomb robber to pass through.

At the same time, the soil here is very fragile and cannot withstand large robber caves. If the robber cave is too large, it will easily collapse due to the fragility of the mountain, which will block the livelihood of those tomb robbers.

We don’t remember how long we crawled inside, because the cave is too narrow and the air is thin. If we stay for a long time, we may be in danger of suffocation.

So we didn't dare to stay for a moment and climbed forward with all our strength. During the process, narrow rocks got stuck on Erpang or Ah Hui's waist many times.

They can only let them grab the feet of the person in front, and then pull them forward and backward to get them out of trouble.

Finally, we arrived at the end of the Thief's Cave despite being extremely exhausted.

The cold water vapor hit my face, it was extremely cool,

This is the source of the moat!

Feeling relieved, I climbed out of the cave and went to the source of the river to wash my face.

Several other people saw the light ahead and relaxed.

At this time, Monk Que poured cold water on her: "If I were you, I wouldn't be so happy.

The source of the moat is the only way to smoothly enter the Immortal City. We can think of this, how could the people who established the acupuncture points not think of it?"

His words woke me up. I immediately put down the water I scooped up and took out a flashlight to shine under the water.

Under the dead water, there seemed to be countless strange-shaped swimming fish.

They seemed to be swimming, but the water was still and so were they.

It seems like it's not the fish that's moving, but us.

I turned to look at Monk Que, and at this moment Ah Hui shouted: "Skeleton...skeleton!"

Ah Hui pointed at the water and his face turned pale. I looked at the fish swimming underwater again and found that they were actually fish bones without skin and flesh!

"This is?"

The monk recited the Buddha's name, took a step forward, clasped a Buddhist bead from the Buddha string he was twisting in his hand, and threw it toward the water with all his strength.

I thought he was trying to get away with it.

Who would have thought that as soon as the prayer bead flew to the surface of the water, it was as if there was a suction force under the water, causing the prayer bead to fall vertically into the water and disappear with a plop.

"The water is so weak that it is difficult for light feathers to float. If we want to cross the water, ordinary methods are impossible.

This water is so strange that no matter how light it is, it will sink into the water."

"Then what should we do?"

"Fill in the river."

"What?! Do you think you are Jingwei? In ancient times, there were Jingwei who filled in the sea, but now there are bald donkeys who fill in the rivers?" Erpang yelled.

"Don't panic, don't panic. The water is not deep, but it is corrosive. As long as we use something to step on our feet, we can avoid the pain of our skin and flesh." After saying that, the monk took out a thick stack of water from nowhere.

cloth.

I recognized it as soon as I saw it, it was a piece of cloth from the country of Osi!

"Where are you from?"

"Taken from Putuo Temple. In the past, foreign countries paid tribute. The Tang Dynasty had a lot of gold and silver for Master Xuanzang's cloth. Xuanzang donated all of it. Among them was this cloth from the country of Osi. We can spread it like this."

Footsteps on the road.”

The idea that Monk Luo Que gave us was that one person should wade through the water for a section with a cloth, and then we would be separated by two banks and cover the weak water surface with the cloth like a sheet, so that we would not worry about sinking into the river and being corroded into bones.

But here comes the problem. Since the water is corrosive, anyone who walks through it will be disabled from the lower half of the body.

"It doesn't matter, there is the best person to do this." Monk Luoque threw his eyes at me.

The second fat man was anxious: "You fart! Why didn't you go through the water? Why did you let the salted fish go!"

"He has Yanwei Gu on him."

"Then it can be used casually?"

The monk shrugged: "That poor monk can't do anything."

The atmosphere suddenly became deadlocked.

Although Yanwei Gu can regenerate, regardless of my current physical condition and the fact that Yanwei Gu is connected to Aunt Qian's body, even the severe pain caused by the corrosion of the legs at the moment is something that Aunt Qian and I can't do

Endurable.

This is equivalent to washing your feet in sulfuric acid or taking a bath in a pan of oil.

If I only have to bear it now, I won't hesitate.

But now I have to involve Aunt Qian, which is no longer something I can decide on my own.

I borrowed Liu Sa's mobile phone to contact Aunt Qian. I was a little embarrassed to tell her, but I had to explain the situation to her.

On the other end of the phone, Aunt Qian was silent for a long time.

I know this is difficult, and I'm afraid that she won't agree, and I'm also afraid that she will agree.

After a long time, Aunt Qian's gentle laughter came from the other end of the phone: "It doesn't matter, you can go ahead."

"But......."

"You are my son too. I will experience childbirth myself!"

Aunt Qian felt like a needle stuck in my heart.

It makes me heartbroken.

At this time, the monk Luo Que gave me a push: "Amitabha, please go away. The young monk has his own solution."

Now I have an arrow on the string and have to shoot.

I had no choice but to bite the bullet and cross the river.

I rolled up my trouser legs, and as soon as I got into the water, I felt a stinging and strong burning sensation in my legs, as if the skin on both legs was burned off the moment I got into the water.

I looked down and saw the light blue water swaying with blood.

The pain was excruciating.

But the more painful it is, the more I can't stay.
