"Hey, what's the problem here?" Xun Zining followed.
Lu Mingshu took out a night pearl to illuminate it: "There is poisonous gas here."
"Nonsense! So what if there is poisonous gas? Do you want to get to the bottom of it?" Xun Zining had no patience for this.
What happened to the poisonous gas in the secret ground? Poison is everywhere, what's so rare? It is said that medicine is three-point poison, and if the medicine is used incorrectly, it will become poison!
"It's nothing, I just want to find out the reason." Lu Mingshu continued to walk in, "If you don't want to follow, you can wait outside."
"Come on." Xun Zining dismissed it, "Is it stupid to wait outside alone?"
"Since it's your choice, then shut up."
"Hey!"
Lu Mingshu ignored him and continued walking inside.
When they went to Guyingya, they found the Celestial Umbrella outside the Blood Pond. Now that the Celestial Immortal Umbrella was also found here, Lu Mingshu had a subtle mentality and wanted to find out.
After a certain distance, Lu Mingshu stopped.
"What are you doing?" Xun Zining didn't know what was going on with her.
"Corpse gas."
"Um?"
"Did you smell a bad smell?"
Xun Zining took a sniff, and his expression became serious: "How can there be corpse smell in this place?"
"Good question, I want to know too." Lu Mingshu let go of the metal cylinder around his waist.
"Crack!" Xiao Bu got out from inside and lay on her shoulder.
"You can smell the smell of corpses here. The source of corpses is either very close, or there are many... It's strange. There are no traces outside. It doesn't seem like people from Liangji Mountain did it." Xun Zining analyzed it, and suddenly something came from Lu Mingshu. Throwing it over there, he reached out to catch it.
"What?" It turned out to be a pill.
"The elixir made from the Celestial Umbrella." Lu Mingshu chewed the pill slowly, "Eat it, it can relieve the body's aura. If you don't want it, you can return it to me."
Xun Zining sneered: "Isn't it just a heart-clearing antidote? It's still a treasure." Then he swallowed it in one gulp.
Lu Mingshu didn't bother to argue with him, and patted Xiao Bu's head: "Xiao Bu, take us to the place where the smell of corpses is the strongest."
"Okay!" Xiao Bu agreed, jumped off her shoulders, and ran forward.
…
The Demon Emperor followed behind Xie Xingshen, and the two leisurely wandered along the underground passage where the magma rushed out, without picking a direction, and took whichever way was easier.
"Hey, do you think it's really okay?" The Demon Emperor asked Xie Xingchen who was in front.
"Why not? Didn't we discuss that the most valuable thing in Xia Kingdom is the Sky-Mending Stone? If Fu Shangqing lurks in Xia Kingdom, it is for the Sky-Mending Stone. Can he control the temptation?"
The Demon Emperor sneered: "If you put it so brightly, he will know that he has found it, and he won't jump into the pit easily, right? This is simply telling him that there is bait here, so be careful to take the bait."
Xie Xing smiled deeply: "Old bastard, as long as the bait is delicious enough, you can catch fish even with a straight hook, do you believe it?"
The Demon Emperor rolled his eyes: "Hehe!"
…
The body odor became stronger and stronger, and Xiao Bu stopped.
"The corpse smell that I smelled before should be this, but the strongest one is not here."
Xun Zining looked at the pile of corpses on the ground, showing disgust: "It's disgusting."
Lu Mingshu squatted down, picked up a dead branch and turned it over.
"Don't you feel disgusted?" Xun Zining was convinced, "You really don't look like a woman."
Lu Mingshu ignored him, and lowered his head to sniff the blood stains on the dead branches.
This smell is too familiar, when Fu Mingxi was still following her, he smelled it every day.
"It's strange. There is no sign of a fight around here. Why is there such a pile of corpses?" Xun Zining inspected and questioned, "Also, the blood is all dry. Are these corpses new?"
Lu Mingshu dropped the dead branch and looked at a small white spot on the nearby stone wall: "No. The growth period of the fairy umbrella is not short. If it is a new one, it will not grow so quickly."
"Then..." Xun Zining became more frightened as he thought about it, "Isn't it?"
Lu Mingshu stood up: "Have you figured it out? Do you think this is not important?"
Xun Zining: "..."
A pile of corpses, not even dried blood, but it has been here for a long time, so what are these strange things
"I just have one question right now."
"Say."
"Why do you find important things so easily?"
Lu Mingshu turned around and smiled, pointing to his eyes.
"You have sharp eyes?"
"No. I just want to say that I have eyes." Then he said, "Xiao Bu, keep going."
Xun Zining came back to his senses and shouted at her back, "What do you mean? I don't have eyes?"
Lu Mingshu raised his hands, but didn't even look back.
Xun Zining was aggrieved and could only follow.
None of them expected that after walking for several days, they never reached their destination.
"How much longer?" Xun Zining asked.
Xiao Bu thought for a while: "Have we walked halfway?"
"Only half?" Xun Zining looked up to the sky and sighed, "I'm so tired! I really want to strike!"
"Don't act like a baby." Lu Mingshu remained expressionless.
Xun Zining almost jumped up: "Who are you talking about acting like a baby? How can I be acting like a baby! I'm just expressing my opinion normally!"
Lu Mingshu squinted at him.
Under her gaze, Xun Zining shrank slowly.
"Think about your image in the hearts of outsiders," Lu Mingshu said, "Young Master Xun who is so cold."
"..." Xun Zining was very angry. He thought it was Lu Mingshu who was poisonous! I really can't figure it out, why is such a petite girl always looking at him with inexplicably high eyes? Then he unknowingly...
While walking, Lu Mingshu suddenly stopped.
"Why don't you go?"
"Is there a map?" she asked.
"Here." Xun Zining took out a map and handed it to her.
Lu Mingshu unfolded it, and slowly slid his fingers over it: "Two poles mountain, so it's near Tianyuan state?"
"That's right! If it wasn't close to Tianyuan Prefecture, how could they occupy such a large piece of land?"
Her fingers paused: "We've been walking for several days, we should be here."
"so?"
Lu Mingshu took a deep breath, continued to slide his fingers, and stopped somewhere in Tianyuan Prefecture: "If there are no accidents, our destination is here."
Xun Zining was surprised: "How do you know?"
Of course she knew that there was Lone Eagle Cliff, where the Blood Pond was located.
"Xiao Bu, can corpse energy travel so far?"
Xiao Bu tilted his head and thought for a while: "It doesn't feel like it's coming from other places, it's because there's always a residual corpse here."
Lu Mingshu's expression tightened: "You mean, there used to be blood corpses passing by here?"
"Um."
"When, can you estimate the time?"
"Not long ago." Xiao Bu said, "It should be just a few years."
Xun Zining felt that Lu Mingshu's expression was a bit scary.
"What's the matter?" He asked cautiously, "Is there a problem?"
Lu Mingshu let out a breath, and said lightly, "We may have caught a big fish."
"Um?"
Lu Mingshu didn't want to explain to him, but said: "Get ready, if you really find it, there may be a hard fight."
