After passing through the dense primeval forest, we arrived at a towering mountain. Halfway up the mountain, there was a temple with double eaves and flying corners, carved beams and painted buildings, and green tiles and red walls.
On the plaque on the large golden bronze door, there were three large and flamboyantly written characters reading "Gu Shen Temple".
In front of the Gu Temple, colorful ribbons were flying and silk banners were waving. A group of big men with bare upper bodies were beating drums and gongs vigorously. It looked like there was some happy event.
Sacrificing a young girl to the Gu God is a great joyous event for the Sheng Gu Sect.
This was a celebration before the sacrifice. In addition to the big men beating gongs and drums, there were also some disciples in long robes constantly burning incense and worshiping.
In the crowd, Ye Feng saw a strange person wearing a red robe and a veil. She looked like an old woman. Although his face could not be seen, the skin on her hands was wrinkled like tree bark, indicating that she was at least seventy years old, if not eighty.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, Ye Feng and Bai Wu quietly landed in the backyard of the Gu Temple. Although there was a lot of noise and beating of drums and gongs in the front, the backyard was quiet and remote, with no one there.
Ye Feng smiled generously and said, "That's great. The leader of the Holy Gu Sect you mentioned is in the sacrificial team. We can just rescue Yiyi."
Bai Wu had been worried, with her eyebrows furrowed. Seeing Ye Feng so optimistic, she relaxed and nodded with a smile: "Well, I guess Yiyi is imprisoned in Gushen Cliff now. We can go and rescue her."
"Where is Gushen Cliff?"
Bai Wu pointed to the towering hall behind the Gu Temple and said, "It's inside."
Ye Feng asked in confusion: "Isn't Gushen Cliff a cliff? How come it is inside the main hall?"
Bai Wu frowned and said, "That is not an ordinary cliff, but a cliff for worshipping the Gu God. It is not outside, but inside the mountain. It is a huge underground abyss. If I don't take you to see it, you will never be able to imagine it."
Having experienced the underground mummy cemetery on Harris Island and the abyss under Mount Zhongnan, Ye Feng was no longer surprised by the abyss in the cave.
When Bai Wu mentioned the underground abyss, Ye Feng's calmness surprised her a little.
"Don't you find it strange?"
Ye Feng smiled and said, "Let's go. The abyss I have seen is definitely much deeper than what you have seen."
The Gu God Hall was covered with a bright red carpet that extended all the way to the outside of the gate. Four burly men were standing at the entrance of the hall.
Ye Feng and Bai Wu went around to the back of the hall. The flying sword in Ye Feng's hand silently cut open an iron window, and he entered the hall through the iron window.
Bai Wu pointed at a towering stone statue with a human body and an insect head in the main hall and said, "That is the Gu God that the Holy Gu Sect has always worshipped. There is a cave under the Gu God statue, and that cave leads to the Gu God Cliff."
Ye Feng gently held Bai Wu's small hand. Her fingers were soft, boneless, slender and long.
Ye Feng smiled and said, "Luckily I met you first, otherwise where would I go to Yiyi?"
On the base of the stone statue of the Gu God, Bai Wu touched a protruding stone and pressed it down gently. A spring sound was heard next to the stone base, and a large stone moved to the side, revealing a bottomless cave.
A sacrificial ceremony was being held, with the deafening roar of gongs and drums covering up all other sounds.
A chilly wind blew out of the cave, indicating that the cave was not a dead hole, but a living cave.
This cave is definitely spacious and connected to the mountain. There are also other air outlets, so air can flow.
Bai Wu is still a little afraid of this place. Twenty years ago, she escaped from this cave. In order to save her, her father Yi Lai betrayed his master and poisoned five fellow disciples and injured her senior sister.
Twenty years later, in order to save her daughter, Bai Wu re-entered the cave and returned to the place that terrified her. Facing the dark cave entrance, she seemed to have returned to twenty years ago, and her heart suddenly rose to her throat.
She felt a terrified urge to escape, but facing the cave entrance, she hesitated.
Thinking of my daughter, I know it's okay to go there even though I know there's a tiger there. My father also had such complicated feelings when he saved me.
But in order to save her daughter, all fear and everything can be abandoned.
She resolutely raised her legs and stepped into the dark cave. The only thing that made her feel comforted was that she felt Ye Feng's warm big hand.
The feeling Ye Feng brought to her was just like the sense of security her father gave her back then.
At that time, she was clinging tightly to her father's chest, and was carried out of the cave by her father. Today, things have changed, and her father is no longer with us, but that tall and majestic figure has been replaced by Ye Feng.
She clung to Ye Feng's chest like a frightened kitten: "Thank you, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't dare to come back here."
Ye Feng felt her body trembling. This was Bai Wu's former nightmare, but in order to save her daughter, she mustered up the courage to return and face her fear again. This kind of courage made him secretly admire her.
Walking down the stone steps gently, there are grooves in the stone walls on both sides of the cave, and electric wires are passed down. Wall lamps are installed on the stone walls. Although the light is dim, it can illuminate the stone steps.
With the help of the dim light, Ye Feng could see everything clearly on the Gu Shen Cliff.
There were five or six disciples of the Sheng Gu Sect playing poker around a table.
Sitting on a chair nearby was a girl wearing a bright red skirt, covered with gold ornaments and a red veil. The girl had a slim figure and her exposed arms were as white and tender as lotus roots. Needless to say, it was definitely Liu Yiyi.
Liu Yiyi was dressed like a bride-to-be, except that her husband was not a handsome man, but a worshipped Gu God.
When Bai Wu saw her daughter, she was so excited that she almost shed tears. She wanted to run over and hug her daughter tightly. Ye Feng signaled her not to make any sound and to wait calmly.
If I run over suddenly and rashly, it would bring danger to Yiyi.
In order to make the attack successful, Ye Feng released the silver ice silkworm and flew over quietly with the flying sword.
The disciple guarding Gushen Cliff was shouting excitedly: "Haha, I won, 500 yuan, pay me quickly."
"It's only 500 yuan. You're so cocky. The sect leader said that if we complete the sacrifice today, each of us will get a bonus of 10,000 yuan."
"Not only can we get bonuses, we can also be assigned to be disciples of the seven great Gu Kings. Haha, we will have our own natal Gu."
"Haha, we can have our own natal Gu. I heard that the Gu insect is very psychic and can save lives at critical moments."
Suddenly, a cold voice came from the darkness: "It's useless. Even if you get the life Gu, you will still die miserably."
"who?"
"Come out here."
"Who are you and how did you get in?"
A disciple cursed: "You are dead, this is the King of Hell's Palace, how dare you break in? You are courting death, there is nothing we can do."
