Xu Feng's heart skipped a beat, he avoided his gaze, and said, "But I'm not good at swimming, I'm afraid I won't last long in the lake."

"It doesn't matter. The other side also captured boys and girls. It is impossible to really enter through the water. If my guess is right, there should be another entrance here."

After all, find it along the lake.

Xu Feng picked up the outer garment that He Tingzhou took off just now, threw it to him and said, "Wipe off the water on your body first."

He Tingzhou still had mist in his eyes, turned his face and glanced at Xu Feng lightly, then wiped his face casually. Fortunately, the sunshine in March was already a bit drying, and the wet clothes on his body dried up in a short time.

He Tingzhou is an expert in concealed weapons, now that he knows there are strange things in the lake, after searching around, he found a raised boulder on the nearby cliff.

The boulder was polished very smooth, obviously it was done by manpower, He Tingzhou tried to turn it, although he could turn it, but there was no movement. After thinking for a while, he raised his eyes to look at the cliff on the other side.

Xu Feng understood it, and ran over immediately, and soon found another boulder in a symmetrical position. The two of them turned the boulder at the same time, only to hear a muffled "click, click". A huge stone by the lake moved slowly, revealing a stone step hidden underneath.

The stone steps were dark and damp, winding downwards, and it seemed that they were leading to the bottom of the lake.

He Tingzhou took out the anti-drug elixir and asked Xu Feng to take it in advance, then picked a branch as a torch, and walked down the stone steps first.

Xu Feng followed closely.

At first, the sunlight from outside could still come in, but the further you went down, the darker the surrounding area became, and in the end only the faint light of the torch remained. The bottom of the lake was very humid, and the stone steps were also wet and slippery. He Tingzhou turned around with a torch from time to time, telling Xu Feng to pay attention to his steps.

They walked for about half a stick of incense, and a stone wall appeared in front of them. There are shadows on the wall, like paintings.

Xu Feng was shocked, feeling that this scene seemed familiar.

When he got closer, He Tingzhou held up a torch to take a look, and saw that the painting on the wall was really a picture of erotic palace. It's just that the people in the picture who are having sex are not ordinary men and women, but a group of monsters and ghosts with green faces and fangs, posing in various obscene poses, looking bloody and fragrant.

Xu Feng just took a look and felt uncomfortable in his heart, so he said, "This place looks a bit like..."

He Tingzhou said: "It's like the treasure cave in the back mountain of the Palace of Bliss."

It's just that the color of the painting on the wall at the back of the Palace of Bliss has long been mottled, but the painting in front of me is brightly colored, and it should have been painted in recent years.

"Could it be related to the Palace of Bliss?"

"Go in and have a look."

He Tingzhou still followed the previous method, pressing the red nipple of the person in the picture above, and immediately triggered the mechanism, and the stone wall slowly opened.

He Tingzhou stopped Xu Feng and took a step first.

There is no hidden weapon behind the wall, it is just an empty stone room with nothing in it, only erotic pictures are still painted on the four walls.

Xu Feng held up a torch to take a picture, and saw that there were still some ghosts with blue faces and fangs painted on the picture, but there were a few more ordinary women who were forced to take off their clothes and have sex with those monsters. By the time of the last few pictures, the women had all disappeared, leaving only broken arms and stumps all over the ground, while the two virgin boys and girls were pushed onto the high platform...

He Tingzhou snatched the torch from his hand and said, "Don't look at it."

Xu Feng asked: "What are these paintings?"

He Tingzhou thought about it and said: "It's an evil sect of kung fu. People who practice this kung fu have to kill a pair of boys and girls to sacrifice to heaven on the fifteenth day of each month, and use the severed heads as wine cups. Drink the secret wine that aphrodisiacs, find a virgin to have sex with, and perform the art of harvesting yin and nourishing yang, only then can the skill be greatly increased."

Xu Feng felt a chill down his spine when he heard it, and his heart burned up, cursing: "There is such an evil method!"

He changed his mind, and asked again: "This kung fu...is it from the Palace of Paradise?"

He Tingzhou did not hide it from him, and said: "It is indeed from the Palace of Bliss. But because this martial art is too vicious, it was banned a hundred years ago. It was not until more than 20 years ago that a hall master of the Palace of Bliss stole this volume. The banned martial arts secret book."

"Could it be this person..."

"No, the hall master was later besieged by black and white forces, and he was already dead. It's just that the martial arts secret book has disappeared, and I don't know whose hands it fell into."

"Why do some people practice such kung fu that kills people?"

"Although this kung fu is vicious, it also improves extremely quickly. One year of practice is equivalent to ten years of other people's kung fu. But how many people who practice martial arts can resist this kind of temptation? It seems that Qin Lie betrayed bliss for this palace."

When the two of them were talking, they had already checked the stone room, and found no other exit except for the four walls.

When Xu Feng walked towards the last stone wall, he didn't know what mechanism he was stepping on, and only heard a "click", and the wall painted with erotic pictures suddenly turned over.

Then he heard the sound of "咻咻", and several hidden weapons were shot from the dark wall, flying straight towards the two of them.

"careful!"

He Tingzhou took a step forward and immediately stood in front of Xu Feng. And Xu Feng has also drawn out his sword, swinging it to protect his whole body. In order to avoid the hidden weapon, the two unknowingly took a few steps back. Xu Feng's back leaned against another wall, and another "click" sounded in his ears.

It turned out that there was also a trap on the wall, and when the wall was turned over, a secret passage appeared.

Xu Feng was caught off guard and fell into the dark passage.

His body fell straight, and he heard someone shout: "Brother Feng—"

Then the wall was closed again.

The secret passage was slanted downward, and Xu Feng rolled several times before stopping. He didn't hold a torch in his hand, and the surroundings were pitch black, only a strong smell of blood could be smelled.

Xu Feng didn't dare to be careless, he struggled to get up, and was about to walk back from the original road, but heard a loud "bang", the wall just now seemed to have been hit hard, and suddenly shattered, and the stones Fly away.

In the flying dust, Xu Feng first saw a glimmer of light, and then he saw He Tingzhou under the halo.

He Tingzhou held the torch in one hand and hid the other hand in his sleeve, walking towards Xu Feng step by step. He was a little short of breath, and his expression was difficult to distinguish under the firelight. He held up the torch to shine on Xu Feng, and asked: "Feng...Xu Shaoxia, are you okay?"

Xu Feng knew that he must be in a mess, so he dusted off the dust on his body and said, "It's okay."

He Tingzhou didn't speak any more, just stared at him.

Xu Feng felt uncomfortable looking at him, looked at the wall that was shattered by his internal force, and said: "You make such a big commotion, I'm afraid you will startle the snake."

While talking, He Tingzhou stretched out his hand and touched his hand.

Xu Feng hurriedly withdrew his hand.

But He Tingzhou followed closely and grabbed his hand.

"you… "

Just as Xu Feng was about to speak, He Tingzhou had already pressed him against the wall. He leaned over, held Xu Feng's hand firmly with one hand, and threw the torch away with the other hand. After groping Xu Feng's body carefully, he took a deep breath and said in a slightly hoarse voice. : "Well, no injuries."

Xu Feng was so close to him, it seemed that even his breathing was mixed together. After a while, he woke up and said in a deep voice, "I'm really fine, you can let go."

He Tingzhou was quiet for a while, and slowly stroked his hand up, but he didn't touch Xu Feng's face, he just picked up a strand of hair scattered around his cheek, and gently pinned it behind his ear, then backed away, saying: "... I was the one who was being rude."

After saying that, he quickly turned around, picked up the torch on the ground and said, "As long as Xu Shaoxia is fine, let's go."

There was a deliberately suppressed indifference in the voice.

Only then did Xu Feng feel that his palms were wet. He looked down, but caught a glimpse of dark red blood.

Was it the man who was injured when he smashed the stone wall

Xu Feng hesitated again and again, but finally tore off a piece of sleeve, handed it over and said, "The wound on your hand... bandage it up."

He Tingzhou took it in his hand and thanked him in a low voice. Under the firelight, his face was much paler than before, and even his lips lost their color. With his kung fu, even if he used up some internal energy just now, it should not be so, unless...

Xu Feng's eyelids twitched, and he suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but ask, "How is the Gu worm in your body?"

He Tingzhou was concentrating on wrapping the wound on his hand, as if he didn't hear his words.

Xu Feng had no choice but to ask again.

Only then did He Tingzhou raise his head, and said casually: "Mr. Xu's magical hand has rejuvenated, and he has already taken out the Gu worm."

Xu Feng didn't quite believe him, and asked, "Really?"

He Tingzhou looked at him and smiled, "It's fake."

Xu Feng was taken aback. He Tingzhou didn't say any more, raised the torch in his hand, and walked forward along the secret passage.

Xu Feng had no choice but to follow closely.

This secret passage was very spacious at the beginning, but it became narrower as you walked back, until finally only one person could pass through. He Tingzhou took a torch to shine a light, and saw that there were several huge bottomless pits on both sides of the secret passage, and there were many dark shadows underneath, and he didn't know what was hiding.

He Tingzhou stopped, lit a torch and threw it down.

The flames were fleeting.

But in such a short moment, the densely packed group of snakes could be clearly seen lying on the bottom of the pit. Illuminated by the fire, the snakes came to life, spitting out letters in the dark, making "hissing" and "hissing" sounds.

Although Xu Feng was not afraid of snakes, he couldn't help feeling his scalp go numb when he heard this voice, and asked, "Where is this place?"

He Tingzhou continued to walk forward, and said: "This should be the snake path leading to the altar. After the sacrifice to heaven, someone will throw the sacrifices into the huge pits on both sides to feed the snakes below."

The so-called sacrifice, isn't it just...

Xu Feng felt a chill in his heart, and said: "Those women who were taken away must have been murdered..."

"Probably not." He Tingzhou comforted him, "One sacrifice to heaven on the 15th of every month, even if you practice evil skills for several years, you still can't kill so many people."

But the humiliation and torment those women suffered when they fell into this lascivious den was probably more difficult than death.

Thinking of this, Xu Feng couldn't help speeding up his pace, hoping to find out their whereabouts in the underground palace this time.

This snake path was not too long, and it came to an end in a short time. There are two stone gates standing at the end. On one gate, there is a painting of a naked beauty, with a wonderful look and a very beautiful appearance. On the other gate, there is a painting of an evil ghost with blue face, fangs and red eyes. The two paintings And in one place, there is an indescribable strange feeling.

He Tingzhou pondered for a moment, and chose the stone gate with ghosts painted on the right hand side. The mechanism here is quite similar to the one in the Palace of Bliss, and he opened the door without much trouble. Behind the door is another cramped secret passage, with drops of water dripping down from time to time, after walking about ten steps, a row of stone prisons suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

It's just that these stone prisons are quiet and there is no sound.

Xu Feng ran over to have a look, and saw that every stone prison was empty, not only was there no trace of Murong Fei, even the missing boys and girls were gone, only some dried blood remained on the ground.

Xu Feng turned around and said, "What's going on? Isn't the person locked up here?"

He Tingzhou leaned down, picked up the blood stains on the ground and looked carefully, then his eyes darkened, he got up and said: "This place is a bit weird, let's get out first."

"how?"

"We broke in all the way and didn't encounter any obstacles. We went too smoothly. The underground palace here... is very likely to be a trap."

trap? Who is that for

Since it would not be an unknown person like Xu Feng, then, he would only come for He Tingzhou.

Xu Feng's heart was pounding, and while speaking, he followed He Tingzhou out of the stone prison and returned to the snake road.

He Tingzhou looked down at the bloodstains on the snake path, and said: "Sure enough. Just after the 15th day of this month, there is no fresh blood on the snake path, which means that there has been no sacrifice to the sky here for a long time. This abandoned underground palace , is just a bait to lure us in."

Now that they have entered the shell, the next step is to kill the game.

Xu Feng knew it well, but he didn't say much, he just said: "Let's go."

However, just halfway through the snake path, a fire lit up in front of their eyes. ? A group of men in black came out from behind the shattered stone wall in He Tingzhou. They all held bows and arrows in their hands, and their faces were icy cold.

He Tingzhou paused, and pulled Xu Feng to turn around.

At this time, only a few "clicks" and "clicks" were heard, and the stone door painted with naked beauties was slowly opened, and a group of men in black with bows and arrows also poured out from behind the door.

The permanent lights on the four corners light up sequentially.

Dozens of bows and arrows aimed firmly at He Tingzhou and Xu Feng.

Enemy from both sides.

There are snakes hidden in the huge pits on both sides. No matter how high your martial arts are, you will fall without bones.

Xu Feng's palms were filled with cold sweat. When he saw the array of arrows in Luofengzhuang, he immediately used his lightness kung fu to avoid it. At this moment, there was no way to avoid it, but he only took a step forward, blocking He Tingzhou's vital points.

He Tingzhou threw the torch away, stretched out a hand, gently held Xu Feng's hand, and asked, "Brother Feng, how much do you remember of the sword technique I taught you?"

Xu Feng didn't expect him to ask this question, so he didn't know how to answer it.

He Tingzhou stared at him, smiled suddenly, and said, "Well, that means I remember everything."

At this juncture of life and death, there was a little joy in his eyes, and he looked at Xu Feng again, and Fang Yang said: "I have heard your master's name for a long time, and I heard that he is also practicing Kungfu in the Palace of Bliss, so I came to look for him Let's discuss it. What? Is this how you treat guests?"

The group of men in black didn't make a sound, but there was a burst of laughter in the secret passage, and someone said from a distance: "Master He came from a long way, it's really disappointing."

The voice moved from far to near, when the first word was said, it seemed to be far away, but when the last word was said, it was already close to the ear. It can be seen that the comer has high lightness kung fu and strong internal strength.

Xu Feng raised his eyes and saw that it was the masked man.

He Tingzhou laughed, and said: "Your Excellency was injured by my sword a few days ago, how did you heal it so quickly? Where is your master?"

The masked man was poked into the sore spot by him, snorted heavily, and said: "Palace Master He came at an unfortunate time. My master has other important matters, so he left a few days ago. He and Palace Master He must have had a close relationship. It's a pity."

As he spoke, he slowly raised his right hand.

As long as this hand falls, it will be a scene where all arrows are fired. He Tingzhou was unafraid, he just asked: "A few days ago, in the battle, did you feign injury and defeat?"

"Injuries are real injuries, and defeats are feigned defeats. It is not easy to invite Palace Master He to come here as a guest."

"What's so difficult about it? As long as you let out the news in advance that you plan to attack Luofengzhuang, how can I not be fooled? I just wonder, how can you be sure... I will definitely come to Luofengzhuang?"

"Someone once mentioned to my master that this time the Murong family and the Lin family are getting married, one person will definitely be present. Since that person is here, Palace Master He will naturally come too." The masked man said, seemingly vaguely He glanced at Xu Feng.

He Tingzhou's eyes were full of evil spirits. But only for a moment, he was suppressed by him, and he laughed loudly instead, saying: "The person who said these words is really my confidant. It's a pity that no matter who this person is, he must die."

The mask said humanely: "When Palace Master He is underground, you can take your time to find him for revenge."

After finishing speaking, his right hand finally came down, and he said coldly, "Fire the arrow."

When He Tingzhou was talking to the masked man, he held Xu Feng's hand tightly and wrote a few words in the palm of his hand. As soon as the sharp arrow was shot at this moment, He Tingzhou read out a sword technique he taught Xu Feng: "There is Feng Lai Yi."

Xu Feng had been prepared for a long time, the tip of the sword was raised obliquely, and the sword moves followed his heart, and he used it naturally.

He Tingzhou immediately turned around, put his back on Xu Feng's back, and also used the trick "You Feng Lai Yi".

The two used the same set of sword techniques, and the identical sword moves were used continuously, which happened to make up for each other's flaws, and their power increased greatly. The sword light all over the sky protected the two of them from splashing water, and only heard the sound of "ding ding dong dong", and the arrows flying from all around fell to the ground one after another.

After a round of arrow rain, they couldn't hurt them at all.

The masked man gritted his teeth and said: "No matter how good your martial arts are, when your internal strength is exhausted, then shoot the arrows."

He Tingzhou calmed down and continued to read the sword move: "Baihong pierces the sun."

With a flick of Xu Feng's wrist, the horizontal sword chopped off the flying arrows. After this move of "White Rainbow Piercing the Sun", the next move should be "Flowers in the Mirror and Moon in the Water", but He Tingzhou didn't continue, only said in a low voice: "Brother Feng, hold my hand tightly."

While speaking, several hidden weapons that he secretly held in his palm shot out. After hearing a few "chi" and "chi", the lights on the four corners were all extinguished, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness again.

He Tingzhou put his arms around Xu Feng's waist, and jumped down the snake path.
