Chapter 190 The Secret of the High Priest

Pushing open the stone door and walking a dozen steps forward, there was another stone door.

There was also thick dust accumulated on the stone door.

Push open the stone door.

What came into view was an empty palace. The palace was closed, so no dust fell. No totem statue was found in the temple.

Nangong Ning's face turned pale:

"Fellow Daoist Fu, I'm sorry. Without the totem to protect us, we won't be able to survive tonight."

Stunned for a moment.

Nangong Ning immediately turned around and walked back.

While walking, he said:

"Fellow Daoist Fu, hurry up, before it gets completely dark, we have to rush back to Qiu Shan Village and find a place to hide for the night."

Fu Shaoping's hatred of outsiders in Qiu Shan Village is obvious to all.

and.

Since the high priest can use the power of the totem, they might be caught as soon as they return. Fu Shaoping raised his head to estimate the distance, shook his head and said:

"Fellow Daoist Nangong, it's less than half an hour before it gets completely dark. It's too late."

Nangong Ning paused.

She had already reached the main entrance and looked up at the sky. The gray sky had dimmed at this time, and her face couldn't help but look paler.

Look back.

But I saw Fu Shaoping looking carefully for something in the temple.

Generally speaking.

In the temple.

Generally, villagers will set up escape shelters.

Nangong Ning's eyes lit up, and her hope was rekindled. She quickly reached out and closed the stone door with a bang, and quickly returned to the temple. Without saying anything else, she and Fu Shaoping began to look for possible entrances to the shelter.

As time passes by.

The two searched the entire temple no less than ten times.

But still found nothing.

at this time.

The sky began to darken.

Nangong Ning finally escaped, she didn't want to die:

"Fellow Daoist Fu, what should I do?"

Fu Shaoping sighed. Now that things have happened, he is afraid that he will have to use his second destiny attribute points to find the entrance to the shelter. Second destiny attribute points are rare.

Currently he only has two points left.

Therefore.

before using it.

He still asked:

"Fellow Taoist Nangong, is it possible that the weirdness you mentioned could see through the invisibility cloak?"

Said.

Fu Shaoping waved his sleeves.

A breeze blew.

The invisibility cloak was put on him, and his entire figure disappeared in an instant.

Nangong Ning was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"Fellow Daoist Fu, invisibility cloaks are useful for humans, but weirdos don't recognize us through sight, and it won't help if we put on invisibility cloaks."

Nangong Ning sat on the ground dejectedly.

Once the darkness spreads to the ruined temple, the two of them have nowhere to hide.

I thought it would be a bright future, but I never expected that I would still die in the end.

Since the invisibility cloak was useless, Fu Shaoping simply recited in his mind:

"Ancestral blessings!"

The moon in the chaotic space suddenly lit up, and the misty moonlight fell on the Xuanming treasure mirror. The treasure mirror trembled slightly, and the crescent moon at the center of the eyebrows heated up slightly.

A mysterious force guided him to the southwest corner.

The floor in the southwest corner was no different from the rest of the ground, but he was still convinced of the Xuanming Baojian. He slightly curled his middle finger and tapped it gently.

dong dong dong

Fu Shaoping let out a light sigh.

He knocked on the extremely fast stone slab beside him again,

I found that the feedback voice at my feet was a little crisp:

"Found it!"

Fu Shaoping was excited.

At this time, Nangong Ning, who was sitting on the ground, also came up:

"Fellow Daoist Fu, what did you find?"

There was cautious hope in Nangong Ning's eyes, and she was very uneasy, fearing that Fu Shaoping would shake his head.

Fu Shaoping did not sell out.

In this underworld sky.

Nangong Ning obviously knew much more information than he did.

If he wants to leave this place alive in the next three months, he will have to rely on the other party.

So he said directly:

"There is something strange about the floor under my feet. Fellow Taoist Nangong, please move it away and have a look."

Fu Shaoping took a step back.

If it is a trap.

I'm afraid it might be dangerous when it's opened.

Nangong Ning stiffened, but it was Fu Shaoping who found the mechanism, and Fu Shaoping saved her life, so she just hesitated for a moment, then bent down and knocked on the ground with her bare hands. Although she could no longer use her elemental power, her body had gone through the elemental force after all. After tempering her strength, Nangong Ning's strength is still a bit greater than that of ordinary people.

A few punches down.

The floor suddenly rose slightly.

After moving it away with bare hands.

A huge red stone slab came into view:

"Fellow Daoist Fu, this is really the entrance to the refuge!"

Nangong Ning was overjoyed.

He immediately increased his speed and uncovered the extremely fast stone slabs next to him one by one.

Seeing that there was no trap, Fu Shaoping also stepped forward to help. The last red stone slab, which was about thirty feet long, was fully exposed. The two of them bent down to cooperate and were about to lift it up when there was a rustling sound outside. sound.

But it was when they were busy.

It was completely dark outside.

The rustling sound coming from his ears sounded like a ghost crying or a beautiful lady singing. It looked like a human but not a human, a ghost but not a ghost. Fu Shaoping felt goosebumps rising all over his body.

Nangong Ning's face suddenly turned pale, and her voice trembled:

"Fellow Daoist Fu, hurry up, use your strength, Wei Wei is coming!"

It's late.

None of them will survive.

The two shouted loudly and worked together to move the red slate away.

A passage shining with red light came into view.

"What a refuge!"

Nangong Ning quickly ran towards the passage below, but was caught by Fu Shaoping:

"Fellow Daoist Nangong, please move the red slate back to its original position."

Nangong Ning only thought about escaping, but forgot about this. The two of them made a joint effort and moved the red slate to its original position.

Right now.

Boom!

A loud noise came from above the stone slab.

The rustling sound was closer and clearer, as if it was ringing in my ears.

Nangong Ning was so frightened that she stepped back:

"Fellow Daoist Fu, hurry up, hurry up, Wei Wei is up there!"

Can't see.

But they can clearly sense their existence.

Fu Shaoping turned around and followed Nangong Ning towards the stone staircase. Halfway there, he looked back and saw that the sound of tapping on the stone slabs was getting louder and louder.

The red slate is also wonderful.

It looks like it can be mashed in one circle.

But there was nothing that could be done about those weird things.

If you observe carefully, you will find that the red slate is surrounded by a layer of faint red light. With this layer of red light, the strange attacks outside are like falling into cotton, and they cannot destroy the slate at all.

"Is this red light the power of the totem?"

Fu Shaoping narrowed his eyes slightly.

Interest was kindled in my heart.

But he doesn't know how powerful this totem power is. If he can master it, he will have the power to protect himself in the Underworld. Go down the long stone staircase.

What was originally just a faint red light began to slowly become richer.

Walk, walk.

Fu Shaoping felt something was wrong:

"Fellow Taoist Nangong!"

He called to Nangong Ning in front of him.

After organizing the language, he said:

"Fellow Taoist Nangong, do you feel that this red light has an evil nature? What was the totem worshiped by Luoye Village before?"

It stands to reason.

The totem statue should be in the main hall.

Nuo should not be sent to the underground passage. The more Fu Shaoping thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

Nangong Ning couldn't help but shudder when she was reminded like this. She swallowed and said:

"As far as I know, the totems worshiped by Minghuangtian are generally the incarnation of justice. Luoye Village has been around for a long time and declined before I came, so I don't know much about it. However, the totems worshiped by Qiushan Village are three jackdaws. The power of the jackdaw is black light."

The power of black light is gentle.

The red light in front of him gave people a cold and murderous feeling.

When Fu Shaoping heard this, he immediately became very cautious. He shook his head and said:

"Fellow Daoist Nangong, since those weirdos can't come down, we don't have to go down anymore. We can just stay here until dawn."

Although Fu Shaoping is curious about what is hidden at the end of the long stone staircase, he is different from the past. He is just a mortal now. Without the ability to use his Yuan Power, he cannot even protect himself, so he should be careful. superior.

When Nangong Ning heard this, she nodded immediately:

"Fellow Daoist Fu has thought carefully."

Nangong Ning immediately stopped, walked up a few steps, and got closer to Fu Shaoping.

The two sat down on the stone stairs.

Soon.

A gurgling sound came from Nangong Ning's belly.

Mortal body.

Only by entering the Tianyuan realm can one be able to escape from the valley.

and.

Without the use of Yuan Power, they are just like ordinary people. They will become hungry when the time comes. Nangong Ning's face showed a trace of unnaturalness.

Fu Shaoping put his hand into his sleeve.

A thought.

He took two white bread buns from the chaotic space and handed them to Nangong Ning:

"Give."

These grains.

He prepared it in advance in the chaotic space.

Never thought about it.

It really came in handy at the critical moment.

Nangong Ning took the white-flour steamed bun and felt a sore nose. For many years, she had been eating worse than pig food. Looking at the white-flour bun in her hand, she couldn't help but feel a mixture of sadness and joy:

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Fu!"

Finished.

Nangong Ning began to eat in small bites.

It's like eating some delicacy.

Ate half.

She hid the rest in her sleeves.

Fu Shaoping wanted to say that he had enough food, but he was afraid of arousing suspicion. After thinking about it, he didn't say anything more, but said:

"Fellow Taoist Nangong, how about you stay up until half of the night tonight and I'll stay up for the rest of the night?"

"good!"

Nangong Ning naturally didn't say anything.

Fu Shaoping felt his eyelids were trembling. After walking up a few steps, he put on the invisibility cloak and fell asleep half asleep.

By the middle of the night.

He let Nangong Ning go to sleep and leaned against the wall, thinking about how to spend the next three months safely. If the underground passage was safe, he could completely avoid Nangong Ning and stay underground. Anyway, he The food stored in his body is enough, and when the time comes, he will be able to teleport smoothly.

But there is no way to find pure Yang Jade.

This meant he missed the finals.

This is one of them.

In addition, and more importantly, he is still a little worried about his fiancée Ye Yemei, as well as his clan members Shaohong and Shaoqing:

"It's better to go out for inspection tomorrow. It would be better if he can find Zimei and Shaoqing. If he can't find them, then his goal should still be to focus on finding pure Yang jade."

Thinking like this.

As the last drop of the timing hourglass in the chaotic space fell, indicating that it was dawn, Fu Shaoping woke Nangong Ning up.

Neither of them had any intention of exploring the end of the underground passage.

After coming up from the passage.

But they saw that there was no mark on the temple, as if the group of monsters that had been shouting all night had never been here.

The two of them restored the passage to its original state.

Fu Shaoping said:

"Daoyou Nangong, how about we go to the back hall to have breakfast before setting off?"

Nangong Ning had no objection. She took out half of the steamed bun left over from yesterday, ate half of it, and put it away.

Seeing this, Fu Shaoping shook his head and said:

"Daoyou Nangong, you still have to fill your stomach, otherwise if you encounter an accident, you won't even have the strength to run away. Today we have a whole day, and we should be able to find food."

Nangong Ning nodded quickly.

She used to be hungry every other day, so she was used to hiding food.

The two had breakfast.

Fu Shaoping put on the invisibility cloak and slept for a while. He was woken up by someone in a daze. Fu Shaoping lifted the invisibility cloak and saw Nangong Ning making a gesture to keep quiet and pointing to the front hall.

Fu Shaoping listened attentively.

Heavy footsteps came.

Unlike the strange sound last night, it was the sound of a normal person walking, but the steps were heavy, as if carrying something:

"Could it be that the villagers of Qiushan Village found out that I saved Nangong Ning and came to the door?"

Fu Shaoping did not say anything and immediately lifted the invisibility cloak to cover Nangong Ning.

The footsteps in front fell.

Then.

Bang.

The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground came.

After a while.

The footsteps became lighter and walked from the front hall to the back hall.

As the footsteps got closer and closer.

Nangong Ning's nervous body trembled slightly. Fu Shaoping stretched out his hand and put his hand on his shoulder. Nangong Ning calmed down and looked out from the invisible cloak.

But a familiar person came into view.

It was the red-robed high priest of Qiushan Village.

Why did he come to this broken temple?

Fu Shaoping's eyes flashed with confusion.

The red-robed high priest swept around the back hall, muttered something to himself, and turned to the front hall.

Fu Shaoping, who was hiding in the invisible cloak, saw that the other party could not see through his figure, and he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the red-robed high priest was really like what Nangong Ning said, and he could no longer call on the totem power of Qiushan Village.

But why did he come to this broken temple?

Fu Shaoping pointed to the screen in the back hall to Nangong Ning and asked him to hide behind the screen.

I followed the footsteps of the red-robed high priest to the front hall. When I got there, I found that the red stone slabs of the underground passage had been removed.

Fu Shaoping thought about it.

He jumped lightly.

He entered the underground passage.

After walking a few steps down, I saw the red-robed high priest carrying someone on his back and walking underground. At first, I couldn't see who it was, but when I got closer, I could recognize it at a glance as Nangong Ning's mother-in-law.

The old woman was carried on his shoulders.

But she snored heavily.

Obviously.

She was drugged.

Fu Shaoping stopped and glanced at the hazy red light. He hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to continue to follow or return immediately and leave this dilapidated temple.

I wish you all a happy new year and a strong spirit!
