Now they finally understood why Shen Shiyun didn't tell them the location of the secret passage: it was to block the main road and make it impossible for them to escape when he released the poisonous smoke. This plan was to be carried out after they obtained the Death Seeking Chop, so that the soldiers outside the imperial court could take advantage of the situation. Shen Shiyun's plan was to kill two birds with one stone. Not only could he wipe out a large number of Wulin masters who were enemies of the imperial court, he could also obtain the Seven Evils Death Seeking Chop. Realizing that Noble Consort Yun had deliberately set up a trap to kill them, their hearts were very complicated and they couldn't tell what they were feeling.
Li Yijie said loudly, "Everyone, don't panic. Stand in line according to your sect. Don't be confused. Try to slow down your breathing … "Lu Qian sighed and said," No matter how calm you are, you will still die. What should we do? We can't be completely wiped out here, right? Alliance Master Li, Young Master Yuan, you two think tanks, come up with an idea. " This time it was a matter of life and death. Although he had always disliked the righteous sects, he also consciously grouped himself with them.
Yuan Yi sneered and said, "That's right. How can the master of the Death Seeking Chop sit here and wait for death? That method was thought up by people. I don't believe that I, Yuan Yi, will be forced into a dead end by others. That person hasn't been born yet. "He slowly walked around the hall, sizing up his surroundings. Everyone saw him as their savior. Wherever he went, people uniformly made way for him.
Yuan Yi also tried to avoid wasting too much energy. After walking for a short while, he looked up at the dome made of glazed tiles. The center was especially high. He frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Got it. This place is the closest to the top. As long as we make a hole, we can go up from there."
Lu Qian sighed and said, "Young Master Yuan, I'm betting everything on you. I was hoping that you would have a good idea and that I was as smart as you. I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it. Have you ever thought that if we break through the roof, there will be a hole, but the original pile of dirt and stones won't disappear into thin air. Later, when it scatters, we will all be buried alive. No matter what, suffocating to death is not good, don't you think? I believe Alliance Master Li should have a deep understanding of this. He had just escaped from the stone statue, and now you're going to let him suffocate to death with a piece of dirt. As a person, one should do good deeds and accumulate good karma. You can't be so cruel. "
Yuan Yi snorted and said unhappily, "As long as you control it well, there's a possibility of getting out. If it was a situation of certain death, even if I let you go, I wouldn't put myself in danger. " What he said seemed reasonable, but the pale man said, "It's just a possibility of getting out, it's not a guarantee, is it? What if he didn't control it well? What should we do? "
Yuan Yi said coldly: "Advancing is death, retreating is also death. The only difference is that if you don't try, you'll definitely die. If you try, there's at least a 50% chance. "
Lu Qian's brain was working very fast, he thought, "The Yuan family's kid has always talked in strange ways, but it's strange, when have I ever seen him make a mistake? That's right, the dirt doesn't recognize people when they're buried alive. Even if he wants to take the opportunity to slip away, I can see his path and follow him. What's there to be afraid of? " He squeezed out a smile and said, "Young Master Yuan's foresight is like a god, your hands and eyes reach the heavens. We'll be fine if we follow you. You'll definitely be able to lead us out of danger … "
Yuan Yi said, "There's no need to flatter me. If I'm determined to do something, no one can change my mind. And vice versa. " Ignoring everyone's stiff faces, he quietly circulated his True Qi in his arm. Then, he raised his hand, and the Death Seeking Chop flew up into the sky. He slashed at the dome, and then fell down again. When he looked up at the roof, he saw that only a small crack had been cut open.
Yuan Yi moved his feet, looked at the direction, and struck out with his palm. Demanding Life Chop turned in the air and struck at the same place. After repeating the same set of movements several times, the [Life Demanding Slash] drilled into a gap and stirred up the interior again, continuously sprinkling fine pieces of sand and soil. But everyone was only concerned about whether or not they could successfully dig out a way out, and didn't care about those trivial details.
Every time Demanding Life Chop stirred up the roof, it would take longer than the previous one, which meant that it dug deeper, and the force of its fall was also more ruthless. Everyone could hear the "whoosh" sound of the wind, and their hearts tightened.
Yuan Yi constantly changed his position, repelling the Demanding Life Chop that was rushing down. After an unknown amount of time, a long passage finally appeared on the glazed roof. Dawn broke, and a ray of light shone in. This gloomy Hall of the Dead had never been exposed to sunlight, and when the light shone on the things sleeping in the deathly stillness, it seemed to be more peaceful.
There were still small pieces of dirt and stones falling from time to time, covering the ground below the Hall of the Dead, but there was a large gap between them and the passage. It was unknown whether it was the Demanding Life Chop's magic, or Yuan Yi's martial arts that had reached perfection, and his control of strength was precise.
He saw that everyone was stunned, forgetting where they were, forgetting their priorities. Yuan Yi called out, "The collapse is still expanding, we must take this opportunity to leave quickly, everybody follow!" Pulling Li Yijie, he leaped up. As soon as they stepped on the slightly inclined slope, their feet touched the ground, and they ran quickly. By the time Li Yijie felt a bit of coldness on his chest and felt slightly uncomfortable, the two of them had already leaped out of the hole.
This place was still in the deserted village, and they saw deep and shallow holes all around, which seemed to be unexcavated by anybody. Sometimes it was like this, after painstakingly pursuing the wrong path, the correct path was clearly at their feet, but nobody paid attention to it.
Standing against the wind, the sunlight was slightly warm, as if the cold and gloomy air in the Hall of the Dead had been dispelled quite a bit. Looking at the beautiful scenery between heaven and earth, even the dilapidated little deserted village was very lovely, because it was still a living thing in the world of the living. Turning his head to look at the passage he came from, through the crack he could faintly see the situation inside the Hall. Thinking about how he had just gone through fire and water in this place, and how he was able to escape smoothly, it was as if he had taken a circle between the world of the living and the world of the living, as if a lifetime had passed.
Surviving two great calamities, he was sure to have endless good fortune. In the Hall of the Dead, he had thought several times that this moment was the end of the world, who would have thought that right now he could stand safely outside the tomb, breathing the morning air, looking at the beautiful scenery of the world, basking in the radiance of the sun, continuing the greater part of his life. Anyone who had gone through this process would surely enjoy it. What kind of disaster could not be overcome that was worse than death?
For a moment he felt that even Jiang Liechen had become insignificant, the Qi Sha treasure was also not worth mentioning. He only wished to stand under the blue sky and white clouds, to embrace the entire world of mountains and rivers. Since the world was so beautiful, why must people fight and kill each other? If pairs of men and women from different countries and nationalities could accompany each other under the moonlight, lighting bonfires, singing and dancing, how beautiful would that be? But why did the Heaven have to put on a tragedy of life and death? Should this responsibility be blamed on people or the Heaven?
Yuan Yi looked at Li Yijie's contented and intoxicated expression and snorted, saying, "Alliance Head Li is so carefree. Why, you don't care about that little girl anymore? "
Li Yijie asked curiously, "What little girl?" At this moment, he was completely intoxicated, immersed in joy. Contentment brought joy, and he truly knew how to be contented.
Yuan Yi said, "Just now in the Hall of the Dead, you and Master Lu were very worried about that little girl. I was still guessing how the relationship between the three of you had developed, but I didn't expect that once you saw the exit, you would abandon her and run away without a word. It seems that you don't really love her that much, I'm disappointed. "
Li Yijie was startled for a moment, saying, "No, you misunderstood, she is my Shimei, I … have always treated her like my own sister … Hey, what happened to me just now? I actually only cared about myself and didn't come to save her … At that time, it was such a dangerous environment, and there was no one by her side, she must have felt very uneasy. "
Yuan Yi sneered, "You really are heartless. In order to survive, you even abandoned your Shimei … "Before he finished speaking, he saw Li Yijie throw himself in front of the hole, his hands grabbing onto the grass on both sides, ready to jump in to save Xue Xue. Hastily, he pulled his arm and tried to persuade him, saying, "That's enough, it wasn't easy for me to save you, I don't want to see anything happen to you again. You'd better stay here, if worst comes to worst, I'll go save that little girl for you. "
Actually, he was about the same age as Li Yijie, but he kept calling Nangong Xue "little girl". At first, Li Yijie only thought it was funny, but then he thought about it, he was just a young man who had just stepped into the Jianghu and was arrogant. From the beginning, he saw himself as a chivalrous hero, hoping that others would come to him to ask for help. This was a common problem in the secular world, it was unusual. He cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Chivalrous Yuan, many thanks, many thanks!"
Yuan Yi was startled, and as expected, a smile appeared on his face. He cupped his hands and said, "You're welcome, you're welcome." As he spoke, he leapt down, his movements extremely light. Li Yijie saw that although he was young, he was skilled in both internal and external martial arts, and secretly admired him. But just as Lu Qian said, this young man was both righteous and evil. If he was righteous, he would be a more suitable candidate for the position of Alliance Leader; if he was evil, in the future he would be a great devil like Jiang Liechen. In the future, Li Yijie would have to observe him and guide him.
The two of them had set a successful precedent, and the others in Gu Mu were not willing to fall behind. They all knew that the hole would only get bigger and bigger, and in a moment, the rocks would completely bury this place. Every minute and every second was extremely dangerous, and the longer they waited, the harder it would be to escape.
Several experienced and knowledgeable people shouted loudly, telling everyone not to fight, because if they made too much noise, the rocks would shatter faster. If they wanted to jump up, they would have to take the risk of inhaling the poisonous smoke. They must not panic, two or three mouthfuls of poison would not kill them. Those who had some skill in lightness kungfu took the lead. Tiantai's Fei Ying and Lu Qian were the first to jump up.
Li Yijie saw that when Lu Qian escaped from danger, he also danced with joy just like himself. Patting his shoulder, he asked, "Lu Xian Xiong, your hands and feet are quite fast. That's right, where are your disciple and Cheng Jiaxuan? "
Lu Qian pointed to the big hole next to him and said with a laugh, "They are still lying in there! I don't know which righteous person would be kind enough to save them. "Li Yijie's heart turned cold." How could that be? " He asked, "In a dangerous situation, everybody wants to protect themselves, who would take the initiative to carry two burdens?"
Lu Qian waved his hand unconcernedly and said with a laugh, "Jiaxuan follows me, his luck is great, he won't die that easily." He heard a cold laugh from his side, "Following you is not bad, but I am afraid he will be a scourge for a thousand years." Tiantai's Fei Ying clasped his hands behind his back and walked in line with the two of them. He raised his eyebrows and looked at the distant mountain on the horizon.
Lu Qian laughed and said, "What's the harm in that? Don't tell me you don't want to live? Even if he is a scourge, it is still better than you, a good person, living for a hundred days. "
Tiantai's Fei Ying laughed coldly and said, "Don't daydream! You are a scourge with good luck, but your disciple is not so lucky. As his Shifu, I don't care about him, he will die for sure this time. "
Lu Qian giggled and said, "Senior Ying is a good person, his conscience is in his bosom, he will not bear to see a young and promising person lose his life in vain. I would like to trouble you to go save him. Fei Ying can jump up and down, won't it be as easy as walking on flat ground? " Tiantai's Fei Ying humphed coldly. Thinking about how Lu Qian's skin was so thick, he could not help but laugh.
