Sure enough, as everyone guessed, there was not just one corpse fox immortal in this cave, but a nest.
Unfortunately, when they found these corpse fox immortals, only the corpses with their fox faces removed were left on the ground.
Even many of the stone pillars in the cave were vandalized and dug into the ground three feet deep.
It was obvious that it had been swept away by large forces.
They were not the only ones to discover the secrets of those jade slips.
As there was no gain along the way, more and more corpses of the Great Fox were seen. The morale of the previously high-spirited team gradually dropped. As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
On the other hand, the mentality of the three people in Jin'an was much more relaxed. The old Taoist priest looked at the corpses of several great foxes on the ground and joked leisurely: "It seems that this ancient warlock really has a special preference for foxes and raised them in the cave."
Such a big nest of foxes. Slutty foxes, slutty foxes, no stinky ones, no foxes. Who would raise so many vixens in the cave if it weren’t for true love?"
"Little brother, aren't you curious whether these great fox spirits are male or female?"
The old Taoist priest blinked at Jin An.
Jin An looked at the old Taoist priest speechlessly. How could he not know what the other party was thinking? The pair of matchmaking sisters had been keeping an eye on the old Taoist priest. The old Taoist priest could not find a chance to make a move. They planned to trick him into identifying the male and female.
Jin An: "Have you ever seen anyone call a man a seductive vixen?"
The old Taoist priest was a little confused, but he still shook his head.
Jin An shrugged and did not answer.
The old Taoist priest suddenly understood and said with a serious expression: "Old Taoist, I understand what you mean, little brother. Little brother, you are saying that all the fox immortals in this litter are female!"
Jin An looked at the old Taoist priest and said, "I didn't say that it was the old Taoist priest who screamed like a vixen."
Old Taoist priest: "?"
"Little brother, have you misinterpreted what I mean by "Lao Dao"? "Lao Dao" refers to a vixen who has become an immortal through cultivation, transformed into a human form, and interacts with people. It is not a folk curse word."
Well.
Jin An: "Why are you so concerned about whether the Great Fox is male or female?"
The old Taoist priest lowered his voice and said: "Little brother, aren't you curious whether this is a male alchemist or a female alchemist? If all the vixens in this litter are male, they must be male alchemists, and if they are all female foxes, they must be female alchemists."
Jin An said without thinking: "I'm not curious."
Old Taoist priest: "Huh?"
Master Qingyun was amused by the young and old couple in front of him.
Jin An and the old Taoist priest were indifferent to fame and fortune, but lived a carefree life, playing games, and their mentality was as relaxed as if they were on an outing. Even he was affected by their temperaments, and he felt calm and looked down on fame and fortune. The three of them continued walking while talking and laughing.
…
This cave, which was once an underground river, was very long, and encountered several forks in the middle. Fortunately, with the corpses of the unmasked Fox Masters as guides, they were able to follow the large army without getting lost.
After twists and turns, as their vision suddenly broadened, they finally walked out of the cave, and their vision suddenly broadened. They were standing in a huge underground cave. This underground cave was very large. If the underground river had not dried up, this place would definitely be a desert.
Underground water cave.
People stood in the cave and felt the howling wind, which made the back of their necks feel cold and uncomfortable. Looking around, they found the source of the wind.
There is a dark wind, which means there is an entrance and exit.
Almost without thinking, everyone walked in the direction of the dark wind.
The space in this underground cave is very large, and I don't know if it is because of the limited illumination of the soul-inducing lamp. It gives people a very empty feeling. I don't know where the edge is and where the end is. I can only follow the cold wind and move forward in the dark.
Normally, this evil wind would fall into people's souls, freezing their three souls and seven souls and sending them to the underworld forever, but now it became a straw that could save people.
It has to be said that things are unpredictable.
There is no perfect path for everyone.
Not far away, a few people walking in front suddenly made a sound of surprise. They found a withered flower bud on the ground.
Because it has been too long, the flower bud has withered, turned black, shrunk and hung weakly on the ground.
Some people were driven by the desire for profit, thinking that a rare rare flower found here would be some kind of magical herb and elixir. They planned to step forward to pick the flower buds, but were stopped by the white-browed old man.
"Several forces slaughtered the corpse fox immortal, dug three feet into the ground and did not let go of a fox immortal, but did not touch these withered flower buds. There must be a reason. Don't forget that this is the underworld, and all kinds of evil things are possible.
If something happens, be careful." The white-browed old man warned cautiously.
Everyone thought this was reasonable and temporarily suppressed their greed.
The next journey proved that the old man with white eyebrows was right to be cautious. They saw many black and wilted flower buds, all of which were intact and untouched.
This situation further proves that there is definitely a big problem with these flower buds.
One or two flower buds can be said to have slipped through the cracks because the cave was too big, but there were so many rotten black flower buds seen along the way that they definitely did not slip through the cracks and were not discovered by anyone.
"Could this be the Dongfu Medicine Garden?" someone guessed.
"It is indeed possible." Everyone nodded in agreement.
According to their conjecture, this cave was formerly a water cave, and the plants planted in the medicinal garden here should be those that prefer darkness and moisture and cannot be exposed to sunlight.
"Shh, something seems to be happening!" As soon as they said there was something wrong with these flower buds, the team immediately made a new discovery.
snap——
snap——
There were footsteps in the Medicine Garden Cave. The footsteps were still far away from them. If it weren't for the dark and quiet environment here, the slight footsteps would have been almost ignored.
Everyone stood there and did not move rashly.
"Could it be the large army that came down before?"
Someone immediately retorted: "Have you ever seen any soul making footsteps when walking?"
The team stopped talking in silence, but after waiting for a while, they found that the footsteps disappeared and the underground cave became calm again. This kind of darkness and calm made people feel depressed and uncomfortable.
After waiting quietly for a while, there was still no movement. Everyone became a little impatient, and after a brief discussion, they decided to go and take a look.
Jin Ancheng did not join the discussion, but just watched everyone pretending to discuss. In fact, everyone knew very well that they said they were exploring the truth and eliminating dangers, but in fact they were going to the Jade Slip of the Great Immortal of the Corpse Puppet Fox.
…
After they walked for a while, they found a firelight in the darkness. It was an earthen temple without a courtyard built on a huge solitary rock.
The earthen temple was brightly lit, and there were a lot of people, the sound of drinking and punching, the clinking of wine bowls, and the sound of wine jars knocking over and rolling on the ground. This small temple was very lively. Just as the saying goes, the temple is small and the wind is strong.
The solitary stone and the solitary temple were full of people, and there was a little bit of uneasy foreboding, which made me feel uneasy for no reason.
But one thing they guessed right was that they built the earth temple on a solitary rock, which was once a water hole, and the building was built on high ground to prevent moisture.
"One, two, three, four, five..."
"There are at least a dozen people gathered in this earth temple."
The person who spoke was the corpse master.
After saying that, he looked around everyone and asked with his eyes whether everyone could get through?
It is said that you should not enter a wild temple, let alone a wild temple in the underworld, but there is also a saying that the timid will starve to death and the bold will starve to death. They have gained nothing along the way. People's hearts have long been impetuous and have lost their patience. No matter who lives in that wild temple
Whether it's the Great Fox Immortal or the Evil God, they both want to give it a try.
Moreover, there are also masters among them...the Gu Curse Master and the Spirit Remover asked Jin An and the old Taoist priest for their opinions. Jin An was also curious about what was in the earth temple. If he could hunt a few more jade slips, he could make up for it.
It would be better to have all the recipes, so I agreed to the proposal.
Then the team quietly approached the bustling earth temple.
