Following Wu Ying's signal, Lu Feng successfully reached the other side. After verifying the rules of the Yin Qi traps in Yuankou, he turned back and forth to pick up Shao Yang and others one by one.
"Xiao Xiang'er~"
As soon as Qian Xin and Shao Yue stepped onto the other side, they excitedly rushed towards Ning Xiang, but were avoided by the latter.
Ning Xiang's strange behavior also immediately aroused the alarm of the two of them.
After sensing Ning Xiang's physical condition, Qian Xin and Shao Yue's already wet and red eyes instantly became moist.
Although they had heard about Ning Xiang's condition from Lu Feng before, they still couldn't help but feel distressed when they personally felt such a bad physical condition.
Ning Xiang's body at this moment was like a poisonous jar, she could lose control and die at any time!
The joy of reunion on the faces of Shao Yang and Man Zhongli also froze. Man Zhongli was so uncomfortable that he even choked on his words, and his heart was filled with self-blame for not being able to protect Ning Xiang.
Wu Ying's attention at the moment was on Huo Qiu, who was unconscious on the ground beside him. After kicking him twice as if to vent his anger, he sneered: "This kid dragged me to death when he was in the Bottle Spirit Sect, and he never gave me a bad look. Now, To be in such a situation is a real relief and a joy!"
Lu Feng stopped Wu Ying who was about to kick. Huo Qiu's life was still useful, but he couldn't be kicked to death.
Then he took out the antique cowhide map that Huo Qiu had taken out from his arms and said seriously: "Brother Wu, can you recognize the marks on it?"
From this ancient map, Lu Feng could only vaguely see some outlines and terrain, but he did not understand the various symbols that were constantly marked along the complex outline lines.
Wu Ying took the map and looked up curiously. After just one glance, the carelessness in his eyes froze and turned serious.
"This is the construction drawing of the ancient tomb!"
Wu Ying's voice of exclamation was filled with shock, and the hand holding the drawing trembled slightly, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.
A flash of surprise flashed in Lu Feng's eyes. He still knew the difference between topographic maps and construction drawings. The former usually only showed the various passages, exits and some points that need attention in the tomb, while the latter covered everything in the tomb. , whether it is a clear or dark path, or various dangerous layouts, they will be recorded one by one, and even some hidden treasure houses will also leave traces.
But on the construction drawing in front of me, there is clearly not even a single word on it. There are just some weird symbols. People who are not familiar with this will not be able to see much useful information at all.
Take for example the simplest but most frequently seen pattern of a combination of a long line and a diamond. It covers almost every path, but I don’t understand what it means at all.
In addition, there are ‘five overlapping elliptical circles’, ‘a combination of thick long lines and semicircles’, ‘two interlocking inverted triangles’…
Wu Ying looked at the confusion on Lu Feng's face and explained aloud: "These are some special marks circulated in our two-door circle of heavy thieves. A long line with a diamond pattern means that there is danger here, and the degree of danger will be different." Depending on the thickness of the long line and the number of signs with attached diamond patterns, the thicker the long line and the more diamonds, the greater the danger."
"The five overlapping elliptical circles usually refer to money vaults, treasure houses and the like, but the oval circles marked on this picture are mostly hollow and not blackened, which means that although there is a treasure house, the contents
It’s not rich, it just serves the purpose of deceiving others, it’s a storehouse of doubts.”
Hearing this, Shao Yang interrupted and said, "You shouldn't. The treasure house that Huo found earlier contained a lot of cultivation resources. If it were replaced with source stones, it would be worth at least one hundred and eighty yuan of high-grade source stones."
"
Wu Ying shook his head, his face became more serious, "Because of this, this tomb is even more extraordinary!"
"The layout used to serve as a treasury of doubts and send away tomb robbers is already so rich, then its real treasure trove..."
Wu Ying is really hard to imagine.
Lu Feng asked aloud: "From this drawing, can we see the way out? Or whose tomb is this?"
Compared to the treasure trove, he seemed to be more interested in the identity of the owner of the tomb.
Wu Ying shook his head, pointed to a mark on the drawing marked with 'large circle pattern within a rectangle', and said: "I'm afraid we won't know the details about this tomb until we have to go to the main tomb chamber."
Finally, Wu Ying pointed to the 'thick long line plus semicircle' symbol on the drawing, and said happily: "You were right to knock this boy named Huo out. There is a dark path on the path you just took. If
He found an opportunity to escape and fled along the dark path marked on the drawing. If we try to catch him again, it will be difficult. He might even suffer revenge and trigger the restrictions of this tomb realm one by one."
Shao Yang was listening, his face suddenly startled. He had seen his master knock out Huo Qiu before, and he thought he was too cautious and unnecessary. Although several of them were injured, they were more than enough to deal with Huo Qiu in this state, but in
After hearing Wu Ying's words, she couldn't help but feel scared.
On the road of spiritual practice, one careless move can lead to loss of one's life.
It is better to learn more and be more cautious and careful when doing things in the future.
Lu Feng glanced at the half-dead Huo Qiu and asked further: "Brother Wu, do you know about the term 'Contract Gu'?"
"Contract Gu?" Wu Ying was stunned and turned to look at Huo Qiu on the ground, "Does this kid still have that thing in his body?"
As he spoke, he leaned forward and pointed his sword finger at Huo Qiu's forehead.
As the spiritual energy submerged, the sword finger slowly moved down to the heart, and finally stopped at the belly of the pill.
"Cultivation of contract Gu is not easy. It usually needs to be based on the essence and blood of both parties, supplemented by various rare medicinal materials. Its survival rate is extremely low, and it is often difficult to save even one out of ten;"
"A successfully cultivated ordinary contract Gu will live in the heart and be connected to the life of the person being contracted. If the body dies, the contract will be completed;"
"High-grade contract Gu will be integrated into the belly of the pill, and the same soul pill will be connected to each other. Once this type of contract Gu is planted, even if the person who is contracted dies, the life soul will never be able to escape control."
"Even the scene before death can be vaguely transmitted back through the induction between the souls."
Lu Feng watched Wu Ying put his hand on Huo Qiu Dan's abdomen, and said in surprise: "What was planted in his body is actually a high-grade Contract Gu?"
Wu Ying shook his head in response, "I haven't noticed too much soul consciousness fluctuations from that gadget. It should not have reached the high-level level. Using the Gu training techniques passed down today, high-level soul Gu can be cultivated.
The method has also been lost, and Huo Yuanqiu should not be aware of it."
"The Contract Gu in Huo Qiu's body is just an ordinary flesh Gu. The reason why he can hide in the soul pill is probably because he took the initiative to accept it and devoted himself to it."
Lu Feng continued to ask: "Will the Contract Gu that he took the initiative to accept send out a specific response at the moment he died?"
Wu Ying thought for a while and said uncertainly: "It's hard to say, but cultivating Qi Gu itself is not easy. After all, after eating so many spiritual treasure medicinal materials, his body contains a lot of energy. If he has enough energy before his death, he may be able to
Through soul consciousness, this energy is stimulated to send a message to the contract owner."
At this point, Huo Qiu suddenly frowned slightly, showing signs of waking up.
Wu Ying's finger gently caused him to fall into coma again.
"It's safer to knock this guy out. Although you have banned his strength, you can't guarantee that he will be defeated to death. Since his death, he will use the energy in the contract Gu to make a final soul consciousness sneak attack."
When Shao Yang heard this, the fear in his heart could not help but resurface. Originally, he just thought that an accident might happen, but after learning that he could use the power of contract Gu to fight back before death, he was sure that if Huo Qiu did not faint, the previous
In Yuankou, unpredictable consequences may occur.
Man Zhongli and others were listening, with lingering fears on their faces. They were a little more cautious and a little less inert.
Knocking Huo Qiu unconscious was just a matter of raising his hand, but sometimes just being so lazy and making unnecessary mistakes would often lead to immeasurable blunders.
When Wu Ying saw that Lu Feng intended to keep Huo Qiu alive and asked about the contract Gu, he vaguely anticipated something in his heart.
He asked solemnly: "But you want to lure that old guy Huo Yuanqiu over?"
Lu Feng did not shy away and nodded bluntly.
Wu Ying said hesitantly: "That old guy has always been cunning and cautious, and I'm afraid he won't be fooled easily."
"Moreover, the dangers here are not over yet. Even if you have the strength to deal with him, there is no guarantee that he will not have any means to save his life. Instead, he will use the mechanisms here to harm you."
Lu Feng looked hesitant. This was a point that had to be considered. Don't fail to dig a hole and end up being buried.
But thinking about the heavy yin energy here...
You can completely borrow the power of the formation without having to do it yourself.
By then, even if Huo Yuanqiu cannot be killed, if he is introduced, he will definitely be able to make him shed his skin.
Even if it doesn't work, we can completely contain it here to solve the crisis of Ping Ling Sect.
Once the trustworthy Rong Wenxuan and other key members of the older generation around Sikongtong are out of trouble, they will surely be able to regain power.
By then, it would be good if Huo Yuanqiu died, but if he were still alive, he could scare the monkeys and help Sikong Tong establish his prestige and secure his throne as head of the family.
However, how to successfully attract it is a problem.
Huo Qiu's life alone may not be enough to impress Huo Yuanqiu.
While Lu Feng was thinking, he temporarily put aside the idea of dealing with Huo Yuanqiu and walked towards the main tomb chamber.
Right now, the key is to find out the specific situation of this tomb and find a way out to treat Ning Xiang.
Lu Feng could also help resist the Yin Qi that had seeped into Man Zhongli and Shao Yue's bodies, so it was only a matter of time before it was completely eliminated;
Shaoyang and Qianxin's injuries, through elixirs and self-conditioning, would not damage their foundation.
But Ning Xiang, who was infected with toxins, could no longer delay. She needed to find Ye Fan as soon as possible to discuss countermeasures.
Lu Feng believed Ning Xiang's words at first, claiming that with the secret technique taught by Ye Fan, he could control the balance of toxins in the body, and that he would be fine for the time being. After he got used to it, he would slowly remove it with medicine, but after being exposed to it, he felt her aura healed. Feeling weak and looking away intentionally or unintentionally when asked...
Lu Feng knew clearly that Ning Xiang must have lied!
Her real condition is probably worse than expected.
