Madam, please ascend.

Chapter 111 Bai Yujun

Today, Panyun Village is filled with a faint evil aura, and the people inside are in panic. The villagers are all pale and thin, and their spirits are depressed.

Yun Yi had a rat-like face, which was very scary, so no one dared to block his way. When they saw him, they wanted to avoid him as soon as possible.

He used his divine sense to investigate the village and found that there was actually a rat monster in the village. He thought that it would be inconvenient for him to walk around randomly, otherwise if he ran into that person, his identity would be exposed.

So he grabbed a skinny man and said angrily, "Are you ready to send the people up the mountain today?"

The man was trembling with fear and replied, "It has been sent to the mountain gate..."

"Humph, push this cart of firewood over to me!"

"Yes!"

It was obvious that Shu Chang had been doing evil in the village for some time. The skinny man answered every question and fulfilled every request, and immediately pushed the wooden cart to the other side of the village obediently.

At the same time, Yun Yi was secretly keeping an eye on the rat, trying his best to keep a certain distance from him.

After walking a few hundred steps, the skinny man stopped the wooden cart in front of a dilapidated house and asked respectfully, "Anything else you need?"

"get out!"

The man felt as if he had been pardoned and quickly ran away from the place.

Yun Yi looked around the house in front of him and found a coffin inside. Apart from that, he didn't see anything strange, so there should be no ambush.

So he simply went into the house and took a closer look, and found that there was no dust on the lid of the coffin, and it did not look like it had been left aside for a long time.

Yun Yi reached out and pushed the coffin open, and then heard a scream. Fortunately, he was prepared, and with quick eyes and hands, he tapped the woman's eyebrows from a distance, instantly making her unconscious.

Combined with the information obtained previously, this woman should be the "food" that needs to be delivered to the mountain today.

After Yun Yi confirmed that the sound just now did not attract anyone's attention, he allowed Ye Nianyi, who was hiding in the firewood, to enter the broken house.

He said, "I have a plan, but it may be difficult for you."

Ye Nianyi's eyes widened: "What?"

"Are you afraid of sleeping in a coffin?"

"Well, as long as you don't leave me alone, I'm not afraid."

Yun Yi nodded and placed the woman in the coffin in a corner of the shabby house, covering it tightly with the thatched grass piled there. He had just cast a spell on the woman, and she would not wake up for several hours.

Then Yun Yi picked up Ye Nianyi again, put her in the coffin, and closed the lid tightly, so that it would no longer be possible to tell that someone else was inside.

After finishing these things, Yun Yi felt that another rat was coming towards him, so he took the initiative to meet it.

The man was wearing cloth and had a beard. He looked just like the rat that Yun Yi pretended to be, with shifty eyes and eyebrows, and they were quite similar.

Judging from this man's age and appearance, he is most likely the head of Panyun Village. It was he who teamed up with the rat demon on the mountain to harm the villagers.

As soon as Shu Chang saw Yun Yi, he scolded him, "Why are you slacking off again? If someone gets out and tells us about this, neither of us will survive."

Yun Yi replied with a pinched voice: "Guarding the gate is really boring, I came to find something to eat."

"You idiot! Forget it, it's time to deliver food to Bai Yujun. You'll be in charge of delivering it to the mountain today."

"Hmm." Yun Yi glanced at the huge coffin and asked, "Should I carry it up?"

Shu Chang cursed: "What else?!"

"Oh, I'll go right away." Yun Yi carried the coffin on his shoulder and pretended to stagger.

This prompted the man to curse again: "Look at your little strength, you can't do anything right, why did I give birth to a good-for-nothing like you!"

It turned out that the two mice were actually father and son. Yun Yi's heart sank. Fearing that he would make mistakes and expose his identity if he said too much, he carried the coffin and walked out of the shabby house.

However, he would not let Shu Chang go so easily. He immediately attached a divine thought to the back of Shu Chang's head. When Shu Chang walked away, he would attack on his own and kill him directly.

After finishing the arrangements, Yun Yi glanced in the direction of Black Cloud Mountain. There was a back door in the village leading to the mountain, so he walked straight there.

Shu Chang still didn't know that his life was coming to an end. He watched Yun Yi walk away and felt a little suspicious. However, when he thought that there was no one guarding the village gate, he hurried away.

Ye Nianyi was lying in the coffin, feeling her body shaking, but she didn't dare to make any sound, for fear of ruining Yun Yi's plan.

Until she faintly heard Yun Yi's voice: "Let's go up the mountain now."

Ye Nianyi replied: "I understand."

"Stay in the coffin. If anything happens, don't panic. I'm here for you."

Yun Yi gave a few more instructions and walked up the mountain road. He found that this Black Cloud Mountain was indeed strange. The deeper he went, the darker and more depressing it became.

It was clearly daytime just now, but in the blink of an eye it seemed to have turned cloudy, with dark clouds rolling in the sky, but there was no sign of rain at all.

Yun Yi surveyed his surroundings warily, climbing cautiously. The mountain path wound upward, seemingly endless, and each step rustled against the leaf-covered stone steps.

The mountain wind whistled past, blowing up Yun Yi's sleeves. Yun Yi frowned because the scene before him suddenly changed.

The fog was thick, like layers of heavy veils, oppressive. It felt as if a pair of eyes were watching every move, and faint footsteps could be heard among the branches. Yun Yi caught a glimpse of a mouse slithering past, and immediately guessed that the cave before him was the home of "Lord Bai Yu."

There were a lot of coffins thrown randomly outside the cave, which seemed to be the "food" that had been sent in before.

Yun Yi suppressed his anger and shouted, "I'm here to bring food to Bai Yujun."

As soon as he finished speaking, the fog in front of him dissipated, revealing a deep cave entrance hidden behind it.

Yun Yi walked towards it. The cave was not spacious, so he could only hold the coffin between his arms and continue forward. Torches were stuck on the stone walls of the cave, and he could vaguely see the winding road.

In addition to the main road, there are many rat holes on the walls and underground. They are obviously small paths that only rats can pass through. They are so dense that it makes your scalp numb.

Yun Yi thought that it was a good thing that he did not act rashly, otherwise if he alerted the enemy, he would find it difficult to use his skills in this strange cave with countless rats even if he had reached the Spirit Transformation Realm.

After walking in for about half an incense stick of time, the view in front of me suddenly became wider and I entered a huge stone chamber.

Yun Yi's pupils shrank, and he immediately realized that this stone chamber was the place he had been to in his previous life.

There is a huge stone statue in the stone chamber. It is a strange bird with nine heads, a body like a crane, and two wings on its back. It is the monster "Jiuluo".

The stone statue is lifelike, with nine heads resembling roosters. If it weren't for its dull eyes, it would really look like it would come alive at any moment.

Just below the stone statue was a cold pond with icy water and thick white steam rising from it. A young woman was sitting beside it.

The person was only wearing a barely visible snow-white gauze dress, with long hair cascading like a waterfall, and a few strands of hair gently falling to the ground.

There were also a lot of dry bones piled randomly around her, which looked weird and mysterious.

The surroundings were so quiet that only his own breathing and heartbeat could be heard. Yun Yi withdrew his gaze, carefully carried the coffin down the stone steps, and finally came to the woman.

This person is none other than the rat demon who transformed into "Lord Bai Yu".

In his previous life, Yun Yi had never dealt with it, so Song Xinci killed it with a sword.

If Shu Chang hadn't mentioned the name "Bai Yujun" before, Yun Yi wouldn't even know what the rat demon's name was.

At this moment, Bai Yujun's gaze passed through the cold pond and stared at the nine-headed stone statue of a strange bird. She suddenly sighed softly, and the sound echoed in the empty stone chamber.

"Why are you here today?"

Yun Yi gently placed the coffin on the ground and replied, "My father went to watch the gate and asked me to go up the mountain."

"It's been a while since I last saw you, and you seem to have changed a bit." The rat demon changed into a charming pose and beckoned, "Come here, let me take a closer look."

"Uh... okay." Yun Yi came forward obediently.

Bai Yujun gently lifted Yun Yi's chin with her fingers and said, "Why do you seem to be getting better looking? It's really strange."

Yun Yi laughed dryly and said, "How could that be?"

"The taste... seems to have changed too."

Bai Yujun's voice gradually turned colder, and suddenly sharp nails appeared on his fingertips, but Yun Yi was prepared and counterattacked in an instant.

He turned over to avoid the rat demon's attack, and at the same time, he took out the purple gold gourd from the Sumeru Ring with his right hand, and pointed his left hand like a sword, aiming at the target from a distance.

The next moment, two sword intentions from Qinglian and Fuyao instantly shot out from the gourd, surrounding the rat demon in a blink of an eye.

Among them, the sword intent of Fuyao was the heaviest. Every time it passed through the rat demon's body, it would leave a wound deep enough to see the bone, as if it was quite dissatisfied with the fact that she was wearing white clothes.

Yun Yi was surprised to find that the situation here was slightly different from his previous life. The rat demon was only in the early stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm and was almost powerless against his sword intent.

In order to prevent her from using her strange magic weapons and supernatural powers, Yun Yi attacked with great force. The sword intent immediately cut the monster's tendons in the hands and feet, and nailed the sword into the center of the eyebrows. If it was half an inch inward, the monster's soul would be shattered.

The cultivation realm of monsters and goblins is different from that of human cultivators. The first three realms are "Spirit Awakening Realm", "Transformation Realm" and "Dancing Realm", which correspond to the awakening of spiritual intelligence, transformation into human form and the formation of demon elixir respectively.

This Bai Yujun is a demon in the transformation realm. He can already transform into a human form. From now on, his cultivation speed will be the same as that of humans. He no longer has to endure thousands of years to make a little progress.

"Sword Immortal, please spare my life!" The rat demon no longer dared to resist and immediately knelt on the ground. The clothes on his body could not hide his spring scenery, revealing a large area of ​​snow-white.

She actually knew some crude charm techniques, which she used secretly, intending to pounce on the human monk the moment he was distracted.

Unfortunately, Yun Yi was almost immune to this. The Fuyao sword intent nailed the rat demon's eyebrows, and the Qinglian sword intent blocked her retreat, leaving her no chance to escape.

Yun Yi removed his shrewd face, returning to his original appearance, and said in a cold voice: "Put aside your little thoughts and answer a few questions of mine. If you answer them quickly, I may spare your life."

When Bai Yujun heard that she could still live, she immediately responded in a charming voice, "I will tell you everything I know."

"How did you find this place?"

"To answer the Sword Immortal, a while ago, the veins of the Black Cloud Mountain moved strangely, causing the mountain to shake and the earth to tremble. Afterwards, this stone chamber suddenly appeared in the mountain. I am a rat spirit, and I heard from my tribe that there seemed to be treasures here, so I came here."

"Tell me what treasures you found?"

"It's nothing, really. It's mainly just this stone statue of who knows what it is, and this cold pond."
