Nangong Jing and Uncle Ming successfully found a cave entrance, but it did not lead to the outside of the cave, but to an underground empty city where not only ghosts but also strange monsters were chasing them.
They have lost all their magic power here, so they can only try to avoid it, or use some of the things they find to kill the monsters.
There are many fewer ways to deal with ghosts. The light is not very bright here. If there is a large group of ghosts, they will still have no choice but to run away.
After struggling for a while, they found a place to rest. Uncle Ming said to Nangong Jing: "I wonder who set up this formation? He loves to play with people so much, why not just give him a blow? It’s a joy to solve.”
The illusions in other formations are all designed to find people’s weaknesses and attack inner demons. This formation seems to be purely to torment people.
"I think so too. After you go out, you must find out who made this formation, and then pay careful attention to this person. I didn't expect that Wuji Mountain, which always puts benevolence and righteousness first, would have such a person. It's terrible. "
A roar of monsters came, and they ran towards the house where they were hiding. Uncle Ming hurriedly opened the closet and hid in with Nangong Jing.
After waiting for a while, the sharp flute sounded, which was a sign every time monsters and ghosts appeared and disappeared. When the flute ended, the two of them knew that they were safe.
The two breathed a sigh of relief, and Nangong Jing said: "Uncle Ming, let's go out. Neither of us are smart people. It's too difficult to find clues to leave."
This time Uncle Ming agreed to his suggestion, "Okay, let's use the wooden sign to get out. We really can't pass this level."
Nangong Jing crushed the wooden sign. Tang Yue happened to be here, so he brought Ji Chongguang to pick them up.
Tang Yue appeared and bowed slightly to the two people in front of him, "Thank you for your hard work. I am a disciple of Wuji Mountain. I am here to take you two out. I can show you how to crack the formation here. , I wonder if you two are interested, or do you want to go out directly?"
Nangong Jing and Uncle Ming returned the favor to Tang Yue first. He had already heard that this woman was the woman who helped him before, "Thank you, fellow Taoist. It would be great if we could help each other through the formation and demonstrate the formation."
If the two of them had known earlier that they could let the Wuji Mountain disciples take us through the formation, they wouldn't have spent so much money. Strength, I tried it on my own, it was really grueling.
Nangong Jing noticed that there was a man following behind the veiled woman in front of her. When she looked closely, it was Ji Chongguang, "Brother Ji, why are you here?"
"I and I I’m familiar with Junior Sister Tang, so I asked her to show me around these formations.”
Although Nangong Jing is young and not very smart, she still wants to understand one thing: a woman who can be with Ji Chongguang cannot. They are ordinary people, worthy of friendship.
"I see, I am Nangong Jing, and my father is the Lord of Nangong City. I wonder if Fellow Taoist Tang can tell me my name?"
"I am Tang Yue, and my father is the Lord of Tang City in Kunwu City."
“It turns out that fellow Taoist Tang is from Kunwu City. I am honored to meet you.”
He knew that the city lord of Kunwu City had two daughters. The eldest daughter was a concubine and studied in Xuanyuan Mountain. The second daughter was a legitimate daughter and studied in Wuji Mountain. There were rumors that the second daughter might succeed the city lord.
This was his first time meeting a young lady from Kunwu City. Tang Yue was young and later studied in Wuji Mountain, so he had no chance to get to know her before.
Although Nangong Jing doesn’t work hard at cultivating immortality, he can still do basic human relations.
But he was a little curious about why Miss Tang wore a veil? Could it be that she has a flaw in her face and is inconvenient?
But she is a young lady from Kunwu City, how could she not be able to cure the defects on her face? But he wouldn't ask about it, it would be too rude.
"You are Miss Tang who proposed advanced magic at the exchange meeting? What a pleasure to meet you. There are many monks in Huayue City studying your doctrine." Tang Yue became more modest, "It's just me. Summarized from other Shu Shu books, this theory is not original to me, it is just picked up from others’ wisdom.”
Nangong Jing has always felt that Shu Shu methods are boring, so he learned from his master. He doesn't take classes seriously. He only memorizes some key points and performs spells. He never participates in spell exchange conferences and doesn't listen to monks' explanations. Therefore, he doesn't know that there are superb theories at the gatherings.
But when Uncle Ming said this, I knew that she must be very powerful and have a bright future.
Ji Chongguang felt that it was a waste of time for the few people talking here, and urged: "We can talk after we go out. I heard that a monster is coming out, so we might as well go out."
Tang Yue nodded, "Senior Brother Ji is right, let's go out quickly. Now I will lead you to break the formation."
They followed Tang Yue to a dilapidated temple and heard her say: "This The temple is in the center of the city and is dilapidated, but there is a tall red flag in the courtyard. I hope the monks can come here to check it out."
Both Nangong Jing and Uncle Ming discovered the red flag, which was originally the case. I was invited to have a look, but later I was chased by monsters and ghosts, so I forgot about it.
Nangong Jing asked: "I see, then what is hidden here? There are monsters transformed from the fear and desire in the hearts of those who join the battle. The monks must try their best to kill them in order to pass this level. I can Directly erase this monster and take you through, or do you want to take a look?"
Uncle Ming and Nangong Jing were silent. After hearing what Tang Yue said, they actually wanted to see who the monster in their hearts was. What kind of.
"Can I go in alone? If I can't overcome it, I'll call you again." Uncle Ming did have something he couldn't let go of, but he didn't want others to know, and he wanted to face it alone.
"Yes, this monster is not difficult to deal with, as long as you face your heart and work hard to overcome it."
"I understand, I want to go in and have a look, Master. Wait for me here."
"Uncle Ming, go ahead, I will wait here." Nangong Jing has already guessed what Uncle Ming wants to do. There is always something regretful in his heart. If this It would be nice if the formation could relieve the pain in his heart.
Uncle Ming went in, and a monster that shocked him appeared inside. It was a monster with the upper body of a woman and the lower body of a spider torso.
The monster roared at him and began to spray out spider silk to attack, trying to stick to him and then eat him.
Uncle Ming dodged around while looking at Spider Woman with a sad face. She actually had the same face as his late wife. It's just that his deceased wife would never look so ferocious. She was a gentle and kind woman who was considerate and caring for him.
He still remembered his late wife's beautiful face, but she became seriously ill a hundred years ago. In order to find a cure, Uncle Ming took her around Liuzhou Realm to seek medical advice.
But my wife continued to decline day by day, her face became older and older, and her hair was gray and withered.
My wife told him that she did not want to leave in such an ugly way, and hoped that he could find a way to restore her beautiful face to her former self and leave the most perfect image in his heart, and then die. There will be no regrets.
Unable to win over her, Uncle Ming agreed with tears, but the medicine to restore youth was hard to find. In the end, he had no choice but to sell himself to Huayue City and exchanged it for a pill called One Day to Return Face, which he gave to his wife. Take it.
They spent a happy day together, and she left the next day.
Uncle Ming smiled bitterly, "It turns out that in my heart, you are a clinging spider that makes people unable to escape."
The love and responsibility for his wife have always restrained him, making him He traveled across mountains and rivers in search of a panacea, which also made him a slave to others.
My wife has been dead for many years, and the love has gradually faded away. What is left is only the unwillingness to be a slave, which gradually becomes the secret and unknown pain in his heart.
