Just when Ouyang Xiaoleng and Xia Qiu felt that they were helpless, there was movement on the cold gray wall again. Ouyang Xiaoleng habitually protected Xia Qiu behind him, and the two of them remained calm and quietly observed the changes on the wall.
A short figure suddenly appeared on the gray wall. The figure had a thin figure, and the wine bottle hanging on his waist was still swinging. For some reason, Ghost Slave No. 4, who had disappeared, came back.
It landed lightly on the ground with its feet, grinned with yellow fangs, and said after making a funny salute: "We meet again, my lords!"
Ouyang Xiaoleng raised his hand to call out Ye Shen Bing, put it against Gui Slave No. 4's throat and said, "You were clearly planning to trap us in this barrier just now, but now you are pretending that nothing happened. Look!"
"This young master, oh, no, Lord Demon King Fox, if I really want to trap you here, why do I need to come back? Such a simple question, how can smart people like you two not think about it? Where are you going?" Ghost Slave No. 4 replied pretending to be pitiful.
In fact, it did have the plan to trap Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng here just now, but when I thought about it, if they were lucky enough to escape from here, they would definitely not let me off easily. And this young man is the leader of the new generation of the demon world. If he sets up a dragnet to catch such a little ghost slave like it, its good days will be over. Thinking again, they had promised it that when they found the entrance to the secret passage hidden in the back mountain outside Chenji Palace, they would give it a bag of gold in exchange. Although there will be no good consequences for betraying the mother of Rakshasa, it would be nice to at least let her enjoy herself with the most beautiful gold in the world for one more day.
Although Xia Qiu also saw that Ghost Slave No. 4 was not telling the truth, now it was the only one that could take them two away from the barrier of this street, so he could only persuade Ouyang Xiao Leng first: "Xiao Leng, take a look first. Can it take us out of here before it’s too late to get angry!”
Ouyang Xiaoleng listened to Xia Qiu's words, took back Ye Shen Bing and warned Ghost Slave No. 4: "Don't try any more tricks, or I will find you from the end of the world!"
"I understand!" Ghost Slave No. 4 smiled charmingly and nodded repeatedly.
"Can you tell us now how to leave this barrier?" Xia Qiu asked pleasantly.
"Hehe, I just love to hear this little girl talk. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also polite when she talks!" After finishing speaking, Ghost Slave No. 4 knocked on the wall in front of him, then turned to Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng again, "I I don’t know what magic the Rakshasa Mother cast on me and other ghost slaves, so that we can easily pass through the barrier on the wall. You just need to hold me and we can pass together!"
"Hold you?!" Ouyang Xiaoleng asked contemptuously. He has a mysophobia, and he really doesn't know what to do when looking at this dirty ghost slave.
"Okay!" Xia Qiu agreed without thinking. After grabbing the ghost slave's shabby clothes, she turned to look at Ouyang Xiaoleng.
"I know!" Ouyang Xiaoleng shook his head helplessly and gently twisted a little of the ghost slave's clothes with his fingertips.
"Let's go!" Ghost Slave No. 4 said and walked directly towards the wall.
This time he didn't lie. In just a blink of an eye, Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng had passed through the wall. What made Xia Qiu even more incredible was that on the other side of the wall was a lively street. The surroundings suddenly became noisy. Compared with the lifeless street just now, this place was full of life.
As soon as it walked out of the barrier, Gui Slave No. 4 became obviously much quieter. It walked silently in front of Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng. Although its steps were not very fast, it moved very fast. Pedestrians coming and going would occasionally cast their eyes on the strange combination of these three people, but soon they would stop seeing ghosts.
They passed through one narrow path after another, going around and around, and the scenery on both sides became more and more desolate as they went forward, and finally arrived at the back mountain outside Chenji Palace. In Xia Qiu's mind, this place has always been a rather mysterious place. She remembers that when she first entered Chenji Palace, she walked along the trail in the back mountain outside the palace, and the entrance to the Demon Horse Forest was also in a cave nearby. Here, she was very curious about where the secret passage would be hidden.
Looking around, there were only rocks and moss around, which made Ouyang Xiaoleng couldn't help but wonder whether Gui Slave No. 4 had deceived them again. He had made up his mind. If it dared to continue to use any conspiracy, he would definitely kill it with one sword.
Ghost Slave No. 4 led them to jump between rocks. Although it looked very old, it was surprisingly agile. Gradually, it led them to the most remote part of the back mountain and stopped on a huge stone.
"Why don't you leave?!" Ouyang Xiaoleng asked.
"We've arrived!" Gui Slave No. 4 said as he raised his head and looked toward the sky.
"Where is the entrance?" Ouyang Xiaoleng looked around and asked
"Don't worry, Lord Demon King Fox! Wait a moment!" After speaking, Ghost Slave No. 4 stretched out a hand in the air and whistled.
Soon, a small black dot appeared in the sky in the distance. The black dot gradually grew larger. Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng also saw clearly that it was a crow. After it circled above their heads for a few times, it landed on the outstretched arm of Ghost Slave No. 4.
Ghost Slave No. 4 touched its head with the other hand and said, "Good boy!"
Then he showed the crow on his arm to Ouyang Xiaolen and Xia Qiu. Although it looked like an ordinary crow, it had metal embedded in its beak. Gui Slave No. 4 carefully lowered the arm supporting the crow toward the boulder at his feet, and the crow jumped down.
It jumped on the boulder a few times, and then magically began to tap the surface of the boulder with its beak. The boulder and the beak collided and made a clicking sound. When the sound suddenly stopped, Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng noticed that the crow's beak poked into a hole that was not easily noticeable on the surface of the boulder. After a muffled sound, the boulder under their feet began to move, and a square entrance appeared where the boulder originally was. The crow flew away after appearing at the entrance to the secret passage.
"Look, I didn't lie to you!" Ghost Slave No. 4 asked as if he wanted to take credit, "Can you give me the gold you just agreed to?"
"Wait until we confirm where this secret passage leads. Let's continue leading the way!" Ouyang Xiaoleng ordered.
"Oh! OK, OK! Who made me meet you two!" Ghost Slave No. 4 shook his head and complained, and then walked into the entrance of the secret passage first.
The entrance was connected with steps extending downward. Soon after they all entered the secret passage, the boulders above their heads slowly returned to their original positions, and the entire secret passage became very dark. Ouyang Xiaoleng transformed into a ball of demonic fire and cast a spell to make it move with the three of them. The demon fire illuminates the space inside the secret passage. The square secret passage is dug very regularly, and the ground is paved with bricks to facilitate walking.
After continuing to walk downward for a while, they entered a flat area in the secret passage. From time to time, drops of water dripped from above and fell on them. Xia Qiu reached out to catch a drop, put it in front of his nose and smelled it. There was nothing. Special taste.
Ouyang Xiaoleng calculated the distance they had walked. After entering the secret tunnel from the huge boulder on the back mountain outside Chenji Palace, they had walked underground for about five thousand meters, but they still had not reached the end of the tunnel. . Just as I was thinking about where this secret passage led to, I felt like I stepped on something, and when I lowered my head, I saw it was a pen. He picked up the pen from the ground. It was an old-fashioned pen, and the pen body had a crack because he stepped on it.
He raised the pen and said to Xia Qiu: "Look!"
When Xia Qiu saw it, she exclaimed: "This...who is staying here?!"
"I guess it's probably God's blessing." After Ouyang Xiaoleng said that, he put the pen into his pocket.
"It is indeed possible!" Xia Qiu nodded in response to him.
"He really managed to find this secret passage!" Ouyang Xiaoleng said to himself, then raised his head and asked Ghost Slave No. 4, who was leading the way in front of them, "How long will it take to reach the exit?"
"Soon!" Ghost Slave No. 4 responded without turning his head.
Just as Ghost Slave No. 4 said, they soon entered the climbing steps, and there was a circular mechanism at the end of the steps. Gui Slave No. 4 grasped the mechanism and turned it hard. The stone in front of them slowly opened to one side, and fresh air suddenly poured into the secret passage, making Xia Qiu couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Ouyang Xiaoleng couldn't wait to fly to the ground and found that they were in a cave in the barren mountains outside the royal city. When the rock that had just been opened returned to its original position, from the outside, he had no idea that there would be a secret hidden in it. road.
Ghost Slave No. 4 wanted to take the gold and run away quickly. As soon as he walked out of the cave, he asked: "Can you give me the gold now?"
"Do we look like we have so much gold on us? Come with me to Chenji Palace to get it!" Ouyang Xiaoleng raised his hand and said.
"You don't want to play tricks on me. You don't have to guess to know that you are going to trick me into entering Chenji Palace and then arrest me, right?! I didn't expect that you, the majestic Lord of the Demon Realm, would go back on your word!" Ghost Slave No. 4 shouted dissatisfied.
"There's so much nonsense. If I really don't want to give it to you, what can you do to me?!" Ouyang Xiaoleng glanced at it and said.
"I'm really in bad luck today, just go!" Ghost Slave No. 4 cursed angrily and stamped his feet on the spot.
Xia Qiu guessed that Ouyang Xiaoleng had no intention of just letting Gui Slave No. 4 go. Although it was just a small figure, and according to what it said, it was no longer working under the Rakshasa Mother, it could provide them with useful information. The information must be much more than that. Judging from its ability to easily pass through the barrier and find the secret passage, it also proves her idea.
