At this time, all the men in black robes, including the two men in black robes, followed closely. Only then did Gongsun Yan notice that the movements of the men in black robes behind him were a little stiff, like zombies. Gongsun Yan's mind immediately flashed.
Just a thought, puppet!
The two of them held their breath and hid behind the strange rocks without daring to move, but they were not as scared as they were at the beginning. It turned out that the ghost tribe was not omnipotent. At least they had not been discovered yet, but they were both afraid for a while.
dilemma.
If you move forward, you will face unknown dangers; if you retreat, you are likely to encounter those men in black robes unexpectedly. The two of them have seen their methods. It is not clear what strange spells they used, but it must be related to the soul attack.
, which frightened the two of them.
After thinking again and again, Gongsun Yan decided to continue moving forward. After all, there was still a lot of uncertainty ahead. They planned to go west to avoid the group of black-robed men and then leave here.
Gongsun Yan has also seen the ghost tribe members, although he only hid and watched from a distance, and did not know their "physical signs" at all.
Not long after they were heading west, they were blocked by a cliff that was too high to reach the top. The two of them did not dare to climb up the wall, as that would be too big a goal.
They had to go south along the cliff, which was the direction deep into the ghost area, but they had no choice but to move forward.
Along the way, some blue-green plants often appeared, and Gongsun Yan would pick some and put them into the ring every time.
Xing Kui saw that he was still trying to collect resources when faced with such a difficult situation, and he couldn't help but secretly sighed that Gongsun Yan had a "big heart". No wonder he dared to go deep into a foreign land alone.
Three days passed in a flash, and the two of them were still moving forward in the dark "canyon". They seemed to have lost their direction.
At this time, the "Si Nan" in Gongsun Yan's hand also stopped working. It was useless to point wherever the person went.
At this time, Xing Kui's mind was very confused. He had just escaped from the devil's clutches and entered "hell" again. If there was light, you would definitely see that his face was gray.
Gongsun Yan is not too anxious. After all, he has experienced too many things since he was a child. He knows that the boat will naturally straighten out when it reaches the bridge. If the situation is really at the end of the road, there is no point in worrying.
Furthermore, Gongsun Yan is very confident in the skills he has practiced. Currently, it is difficult for him to disappear from this world using ordinary immortal methods.
He has completed the process of refining and dispersing his soul in the body, gathering and dispersing freely, and he is really looking forward to the results of his cultivation.
On this day, the two of them were walking aimlessly in the deep valley. While Gongsun Yan was picking the "shady plants" hanging from the cliff, he suddenly discovered a cave hidden behind the dense plants.
He was greatly surprised. Thinking of his experience of meeting Rong Yu in Cuiping Mountain, he immediately had the idea to find out.
The two walked into the cave cautiously. It was very deep inside and the air was thin. Fortunately, they were both in the Return to the Void Realm. They could walk with a breath at any time. In the dark, they could see things as if they were daylight, so their exploration of the cave would not be affected at all. There was no need to worry.
I'm just afraid of meeting a "master" who I can't beat.
Gongsun Yan and the others walked for nearly half an hour before they came to the end of a place, turned a corner, and suddenly a "stone house" appeared inside.
It is said to be a stone house, but it is actually a cave that has been artificially repaired, but it is fully furnished. If there is light, ordinary people will definitely be able to see that this place is no different from the study room of an ordinary mortal family. There is also a bedroom inside.
Furniture and bedding are also available.
The two of them looked around in the study room and found that the place was very clean. Apparently someone lived and read here often. Gongsun Yan felt uneasy and whispered to Xing Kui:
"Brother Xing, no! We're afraid we've inadvertently broken into someone else's 'private house'. Don't touch anything here! Let's get out of here quickly!"
"Haha! We are destined to meet each other! Now that we are here, let's stay a little longer!"
Suddenly, an illusory voice sounded, as if it was coming from a distant place, yet it seemed as if it was very close.
After hearing this, both of them stood there in a daze, not daring to act rashly.
Suddenly, an illusory figure began to appear behind the desk, and gradually became clearer. In the end, it was no different from the image of an ordinary person.
This is a white-haired old man, sitting behind the desk at the moment, looking at Gongsun Yan and Gongsun Yan with a smile.
Both of them were shocked. Gongsun Yan quickly clasped his fists in salute and said:
"Boy, I have met my senior. We lost our way in the valley. We accidentally broke in here and disturbed our senior. We hope that our senior will be considerate!"
Xing Kui also quickly bowed and apologized.
"It doesn't matter. I haven't seen anyone from the Yangshi world for I don't know how many years. It's fate to meet you. You two little friends don't be nervous. Let's sit down and chat! I don't have anything to entertain you here, so I'd like to invite you two.
Please be patient, my friend!" the old man said politely.
Hearing the word "Yangshi", Gongsun Yan's heart tightened and he immediately became uneasy. He quickly asked:
"Senior, is this the underworld?"
"Haha, this is both the underworld and not the underworld. Let's call it the underworld. You two are still in the physical body! If it is not the underworld, I have never seen anyone from the upper world come here in these years. In short, this place is different from the upper world!
"
The old man's explanation made the two of them even more uneasy. They looked at the old man's figure with suspicious eyes.
Seeing this, the old man smiled and said:
"You want to ask me if I am a human or a ghost?"
Gongsun Yan smiled unnaturally.
"Haha! It doesn't matter! Since I said you are people from the Yang world, I have naturally been dead for many years!"
Seeing the surprised expressions of the two people, the old man continued:
"I am a ghost cultivator, the ghost clan you often call me!"
"Ah!" The two of them were shocked! They accidentally bumped into the ghost tribe.
The old man waved his hand and continued:
"You don't need to panic. If I really want your lives, how can you chat with me here? Now that you are here, do you two want to get to know the ghost clan? To avoid being misled by others in the future!"
Hearing this, Gongsun Yan immediately stood up, cupped his fists and saluted:
"Please ask the seniors to help us clear up our doubts. The juniors will be very grateful!"
"It doesn't matter, I have been practicing here for many years. It is fate that you can meet me here. It is my honor to be able to answer your questions!"
The old man said politely. It can be seen that the old man must have been a humble and kind elder during his lifetime. After a pause, the old man began to say:
"I am a native of Hezhou City in Shenzhou Continent. My name is Dongguo Huiren. After he was framed by his allies and died in trouble, his soul drifted to Youzhou and became a ghost cultivator. Later, he was kidnapped here. Many years have passed and I don't know.
