Zhu Xian

Chapter 7 Xuanhuo altar

Gui Li threw the dead gray dolphin in the corner of the wall, and then carefully checked the mouth of the cave where the gray dolphin was located. Sure enough, he found that a very thin line was pulled out of the hole and connected to a bell in the distance. Presumably in the past few days, he and Jin Ping'er have repeatedly failed to sneak in, and they were all found by this little gray dolphin.

He once read the record in the remnants of "Gods and Demons" hidden by the Ghost King Sect. The gray dolphin's nose is extremely sensitive, which is far better than the mortal world. In the past few days, he tried his best to cover his body, but he did not expect that it was discovered by such a small beast.

Although he figured out the joint, the ghost frowned and then frowned. He stood in the dark corner of the wall and meditated for a moment. Although the exotic beast like gray dolphin is not an ancient mythical beast, it is also rare in the world. It has always been said that it is only found in a forest in the depths of 100,000 mountains in southern Xinjiang. There is actually this beast in the incense valley, and since the past few days, I have tried to enter the incense valley from many places, but it has been found without exception. It seems that there are still a lot of gray dolphins in the incense valley, which is really surprising.

But the most important thing is to domesticate many gray dolphins to such a point at the same time. Such beast control skills, not to mention the right path of the Central Plains, is unheard of in the demon religion, but it is said that there are quite such strange skills among the barbarians in southern Xinjiang!

Gui Li turned around and looked forward. Suddenly, he found that in the noise in the distance, the depths of the Burning Valley was still quiet, and the deep darkness shrouded it like a dark curtain, and I don't know how many secrets were hidden.

The noise at the entrance of the valley gradually calmed down. From afar, only people were heard talking loudly, but the sound of fighting had all disappeared. It seemed that the incense valley had gradually controlled the situation.

I don't know who it is. How dare you openly provoke the Burning Valley? Gui Li withdrew his eyes looking at the entrance of the valley, and unconsciously flashed the figure of the golden bottle in his heart. This mysterious and charming woman is still in the chaos at this moment!

At this moment, Gui Li has penetrated deep into the incense valley from the invisible corner just now. Along the way, there is no alarm bell triggered by the gray dolphin. I think the incense valley is mostly distributed by these small animals with a keen sense of smell in all corners of the valley. Once you get to the middle of the valley, you don't have to worry about these.

The night is dark, and the valley that has just calmed down from the noise is particularly deep. With the ghostly figure floating on the path of the pavilion in the valley, the world under the dark curtain gradually revealed.

The Burning Fragrant Valley is known as the pillar of the right path in the world. Although it usually acts low-key, it is a great school that has flourished for 800 years. What gradually appears along the way is the foundation of this valve.

Under the night, more than a dozen paths, large or small, connected to each other, scattered like human blood, deep into the darkness of the incense valley. On both sides of the road, there are either ordinary disciples' residences, or tall and majestic palaces. In the middle of these buildings, there are mostly flowers and trees, green bamboo and cold plums, and bright peony peony. They are in groups of each other, looking at each other from afar, and integrated with the surrounding palaces, which actually have their own flavor.

Because of this noise, although it was late at night, there were disciples of Burning Fragrant Valley here from time to time, and Gui Li had to be careful to hide his body to avoid exposing his whereabouts. On the contrary, the faces of these disciples seemed to be very calm. Without the surprise and shock at the beginning of the noise, we knew that the situation at the entrance of the valley had been settled.

It is naturally difficult for these few disciples of the Burning Valley to walk around. For ten years, he has practiced the true Dharma of Buddha, Demon and Taoism. Based on the strange and magical Heavenly Calligraphy, the radical speed of Taoism is unimaginable. Even the erudite and versatile ghost In the end, it can only be attributed to the principle of Buddhism and Taoism. Perhaps there is really a mystery of secret compatibility and improvement.

It's just that Gui Li is hidden in the dark. Although he doesn't pay attention to these ordinary incense-burning valley disciples, the more than a dozen roads in front of him really gave him a headache and didn't know where to go. This time, he sneaked into the incense valley secretly. With his selfish intention, he wanted to explore the secrets in the incense valley, and it was best to find out the relationship with those southern barbarians.

To know this, it is natural to go to the places where the important people in the Incense Valley are, but the paths in front of you look like a maze, which is really a headache.

Just as Gui Li frowned and thought about whether to catch a disciple of Burning Incense Valley to torture, suddenly there was a strange movement on his shoulder, and a slight moan came from Xiaohui's ear.

Gui Li was shocked and turned his head to look, and his body couldn't help shaking. The monkey Xiaohui grasped his clothes tightly with his hand. The monkey's face was twisted, his eyes were closed, and he seemed to be in pain. However, after all, he was psychic and human. He knew that it was not the right time, so he put up with it.

Gui Li's surprise is not a small matter. Somehow, since he entered the valley just now, Xiaohui seems to have something wrong. At this moment, it seems that there is some great pain in his body.

Reached out and gently hugged Xiao Hui. Gui Li looked at him carefully and felt that the monkey's body trembled slightly in his palm. Obviously, he was trying his best to resist the unknown pain. Gui Li was even more worried and whispered, "What's the matter, Xiaohui?"

As if because he heard the master's words, the little gray head tilted and slowly opened his eyes.

The faint red light in the golden world, like the strange ghost fire in the night, and more like the strange demon pupil under the nine ghosts, appeared in front of the ghost.

The temperature around

seems to have suddenly cooled down.

Xiaohui's breathing sound began to increase slowly. Gui Li clearly felt that he grabbed the monkey's claws of his hands, and the power was getting stronger and bigger, and the claws fell deep into the muscles.

The monkey's mouth slowly closed one by one, but the strange golden demon in his eyes stared at the ghost fiercely and never relaxed for a moment. From there, Gui Li suddenly felt a familiar, blood-eating vision like when he was crazy before...

In an instant, Gui Li suddenly felt that his whole body was cold. He turned his head and looked at his hand. In that sleeve robe, I don't know when, the blood-eating beads above the top of the soul-eating emitting a faint blue light with a slight blood light.

Blood-eating beads!

The most fierce and evil thing in the world is so strange...

As if he suddenly came out of his deep heart, Gui Li only felt a bitter taste in his mouth for a moment. He turned his head and looked at Xiao Hui. Xiaohui seemed to feel something and shouted twice in a low voice.

The ghost calmed down, and then found that there seemed to be a trace of panic behind the golden light in Xiaohui's eyes. He took a deep breath, then smiled at the corners of his mouth and whispered, "It's okay."

Xiaohui seemed to understand the master's words. His eyes blinked and slowly closed. After a moment, it seemed that the inexplicable pain gradually subsided, and the power on Xiaohui's claws gradually decreased.

Gui Li stood in the dark and slowly hugged Xiao Hui in his arms.

The night is as cold as water.

It was dark in front of me, and the figure of one person and one monkey flashed gently in the dark corner of the night.

I don't know how long he stood. Xiaohui seemed to be asleep, quietly lying in the arms of the ghost. Ghost Li didn't care at all that this was a dangerous place to burn incense valley. He stood in the dark and gently hugged the monkey.

Suddenly, the little gray in his arms moved and his head was raised. Gui Li looked down and saw that the golden light in the monkey's eyes had disappeared, and he had become a normal and lively look.

Ghost's heart was wide, but before he could say anything, Xiaohui seemed to struggle for a moment, and then his arm pointed to a road outside. Gui Li was stunned and looked up. After a while, two people came from that road, but they were the characters that Gui Li recognized.

Li Xun and Yan Hong.

Gui Li frowned. He had known these two ten years ago, and they were both excellent talents. Although the world has changed in the past ten years and we will never see each other again, the ten years of cultivation are just a flash of an eye. The two of them look almost the same as they were ten years ago, but they just watched them raise their hands and feet, and I'm afraid they are not comparable to those years.

The two of them came slowly and seemed to be talking to each other. Walking closer, he only heard Yan Hong say, "Brother, why did those monsters suddenly rush in?"

Li Xun frowned, and obviously didn't quite understand. But looking at his cold face, he said coldly, "Those uncivilized beasts, who knows what they are thinking! If you want me to say that these fishmen dare to invade the valley, you have to tell them not to come back. Why bother Uncle Shangguan again?

Yan Hong said softly, "Brother, don't be angry. Lord Gu is far-sighted. There must be something we can't know about this for the time being. When negotiating with these barbarians at the beginning, it was Uncle Shangguan who showed his magic to deter him. Those barbarians regarded him as a man of heaven. As long as he came forward, those monsters must leave obediently. The owner of the valley asked us to invite Uncle Shangguan to come out. This must be the reason.

Li Xun snorted and said, "Of course I know these, but I don't understand why we should whisper to these monsters with our incense valley. Now we still need to ask Uncle Shangguan to come forward. If this matter spreads out, won't our incense valley become the laughingstock of the right way in the world?"

Yan Hong smiled and said, "Brother, I think there are still some useful things for these barbarians, so the valley owner tolerates them. Until the future..." At this point, she suddenly stopped talking, but looked at Li Xun with a pair of eyes, as if there were thousands of words.

Li Xun curled the corners of his mouth, and there seemed to be a trace of disconvincedness on his handsome face. Looking from afar, it added a little more chic. However, he didn't say anything more. He just sighed and slowly walked on the next path with Yan Hong. After a while, he disappeared into the night.

In the shadow, a sharp look like a knife, looking at their backs. Gui Li's mind turned around. It turned out that those who invaded the Burning Valley tonight were actually the fish aliens he had tracked. Thinking back to the night three days ago, I heard Lv Shun talking to the fishman in the dark. The tall fishman seemed to be the head of the family.

It seems that what happened tonight was mostly caused by the fishman leader being killed by the golden bottle, and the rest of the fishman family came to revenge in anger. At the thought of this, Gui Li couldn't help brushing the figure of the golden bottle in his heart, and his vigilance towards this woman deepened.

He stood in the shadow for a moment, and then seemed to have made a decision and looked at Xiaohui in his arms. Xiaohui's eyes blinked, and suddenly his body moved. He rushed to his shoulder and grinned. It seemed that he had completely recovered.

Gui Li was relieved, smiled faintly and said, "Let's go and see what kind of uncle Shangguan is. How about it?"

Xiaohui "squeaked" twice, and the monkey waved his hand, but pointed to the road that Li Xun and Yan Hong walked.

Gui Li smiled silently in the dark, and his figure suddenly rose, as fast as a ghost, and went up to the secluded path.

In the distance, a disciple of the incense valley was coming here. Suddenly, he felt a flower in front of him. It seemed that a ghost flashed on the road leading to the "sterious fire altar" in the valley in front of him. When he looked at it carefully, he saw nothing. He couldn't help but be stunned, then shook his head, muttered, and continued to walk forward without taking it seriously.

The path is quiet, but the road is unexpectedly long. Obviously, the place where Uncle Shangguan is located is very secluded. Gui Li didn't go far on this road, and there were no other houses around him. There were trees and flowers on both sides of the road, and the night wind blew. Under the light of the moon in the sky, the shadow of the trees was rustled. It looked like some kind of demon dancing, revealing a trace of strangeness.

Gui Li walked carefully along this path for a long time, but did not see any fork in the way as outside. It seemed that the road led directly to the location of the Shangguan uncle.

The Burning Valley occupies a huge area. This path, looking at the twist, leads to the depths of the valley.

Suddenly, a white square suddenly appeared next to the road in front of him. The ghost's fierce eyes condensed and fixed his eyes, but it was a stone tablet engraved with two lines and eight characters:

The mysterious fire is heavy

Disciple Stop

Gui Li frowned, not because he hesitated because it might be the mystery of the incense valley in front of him, but because the word "mysterious fire" quietly touched a place in his heart.

He couldn't help looking at his right arm. Under the clothes, "Xuanhuojian" was lying quietly on his arm.

He was stunned for a moment, then sneered and walked past the stone tablet with his feet.

Although the stone tablet is ordinary, it seems to be a demarcation place. After passing the stone tablet, somehow, although the path is still curved and extends forward, the trees and flowers on both sides of the road are obviously much rare.

First, the grass on the ground gradually disappeared, then the low shrubs, and finally the dense trees on both sides gradually became sparse. Not to mention that the ground began to crack, even the branches of the remaining trees turned yellow, as if there was an extreme shortage of water in the vicinity, and the land was scorched.

I don't know if it has anything to do with the word "Xuanhuo"?

The little gray on his shoulder shouted in a low voice, and his body also moved, as if he was a little uneasy. Gui Li gently patted his body, and Xiao Hui gradually calmed down. At present, the surrounding scene is indeed very strange, but it doesn't look like the important thing in the incense valley. Otherwise, I haven't even seen a guard disciple along the way.

Gui Li turned his mind and turned the last corner along the path.

Suddenly, he couldn't help shaking his body. In front of him was a large piece of open space, and a heat wave came from nowhere.

In the middle of the open space is a huge round altar, with the bottom hanging in the air, and the huge stone pillars up to three feet made of thirteen white jade support the whole altar. Among them, there are twelve white jade pillars on the edge of the altar, each of which has the thickness of two people, and the thickest white jade pillar in the middle of the altar requires at least five or six people to hold it together.

Above the altar, all the buildings are built of a kind of scarlet strange stone, with steps and railings. In the center of the altar stands a tall and majestic hall, showing the shape of a pagoda. There are three floors. Each higher floor is about half smaller than the next floor, but almost each floor is incredibly ten feet high.

From afar, this altar is simply a huge burning red flame, piercing the sky. Gui Li stood under this altar, almost like an ant, extremely small.

Gui Li took a deep breath. The building in front of him is really amazing. I'm afraid that the four words "Ghost Axe" are worthy of being put here. I didn't expect that there would be such a magnificent building in the incense valley. He meditated, and for a moment, he thought of the stone tablet that had just come in, and he vaguely knew in his heart that this place in front of him was probably the famous place in the incense valley - the altar of fire.

He calmed down and then drifted over quietly. Except for the mysterious fire altar in front of us, it is an empty space with no cover. Fortunately, there was no one to guard around. He was so fast that he reached the bottom of the Xuanhu altar in a blink of an eye.

As soon as I approached the Xuanhuo altar, the heat in the air suddenly increased several times. Even if the practice was as fierce as a ghost, I still felt a burst of upset and faint sweat on my forehead. Gui Li frowned and was secretly surprised. Then he remembered in his heart that he didn't know whether Xiaohui could support such a heat, so he turned his head and looked at it, but saw Xiaohui scratching his head and scratching his ears on his shoulder, as if he seemed to turn a blind eye to the heat around him.

Gui Li was stunned and subconsciously felt that Xiaohui had been very unusual recently, especially since he swallowed the elixir stone in the Heavenly Emperor's treasure house on the god tree in the death swamp, his body obviously began to change gradually.

However, in this case, it is much better for Xiaohui not to be afraid of heat than to be afraid of heat, and Gui Li is not in the mood to take care of so much for the time being. When he was thinking about whether to grab the Xuanhu altar next, a sound of footsteps suddenly came from above the Xuanhu altar.

Gui Li frowned and looked around, but saw that there was no shelter around at all. With a slight meditation, the man flew into the bottom of the Xuanhuo altar and hid behind a thick white jade pillar.

He hid behind the stone pillar and subconsciously reached out to touch the stone pillar. Suddenly, his hand was hot. He reacted so quickly that he immediately withdrew his hand.

Under this mysterious fire altar, even this stone pillar is hot.

The footsteps became louder. Obviously, someone came down. Suddenly, an old voice said slowly, "Since the Lord of the Valley invites me, I will naturally go. It's just that you told me, why were those fishmen suddenly so violent that they were going to attack the valley?

Gui Li hid in the shadow of the stone pillar and looked out. He saw Li Xun and Yan Hong following behind an old man in gray and walking down respectfully.
