Chapter 140 The Clever Analysis in the Cave

After Rong Yu thought for a moment, Fang slowly said: "Neither is desirable."

What he said was exactly Ye Xinyao's thoughts.

Of the three openings around the banyan tree, the one on the left was so small that they had to lie on the ground, one in front of the other, crawling forward, but they couldn't be sure whether it was safe or not.If in the middle of the journey, some strange beasts such as earthworms, spiders, and pythons suddenly appeared in front of them, the fighting power they could display would be quite tragic.The hole in the middle seemed to be fine, but it could only allow one person to pass through freely. The two had to walk one after the other, not to mention that their bodies would inevitably touch those glowing vines.In view of the peculiar effect of the vines in the first passage, Ye Yaoyao really didn't want to use herself to test whether the glowing vines had any special abilities.The hole on the right is wide and big, and there seems to be nothing to be picky about except for being a little dark.The problem is that some very powerful monsters, or monsters that live in groups, simply cannot pass through smaller passages.If you go to the end and find that it is a dead end, and you meet a powerful guy... Even if they are not afraid of the challenge, the road to Xuanmu Cave is rugged, with nine bends and eighteen bends, so they can't fight all the way, right?The yin energy here is too heavy, if one goes through one after another high-intensity battle, the spiritual energy will definitely be unable to make ends meet.Besides, after each fight, it is also very tiring!
"Qianzhao is just like me, he's a bit heavy-hearted." Ye Yaoyao took it easy, thinking about her best friend's thinking, "When encountering this scene, he will definitely be like me, not believing in the three paths that are laid out in the open, Even if we rummage through here, we must find a hidden passage.”

Rong Yu knew what she wanted to do, so he glanced at the banyan tree, which was so dense that it could almost form a forest, and said, "Don't forget, he has a companion." Moreover, this companion may not be an equal and friendly relationship like them. Listen to and adopt the other person's opinion.So if you just speculate on Yue Qianzhao's thoughts and don't consider this companion, something may go wrong.

"But his companion's sword pill was destroyed, and his lifespan was short. He became very extreme in order to prolong his life, and he was almost obsessed with it." Ye Xinyao considered for a moment, and still chose to believe in Yue Qianzhao's sharp tongue and deceiving skills. "When necessary, he doesn't want to waste his energy confronting Qianzhao head-on. If Qianzhao wants to talk about what the other party cares about, the other party will probably listen to him."

After thinking about it, I thought it was true, so I didn't say much.

Ye Xinyao didn't talk any more, she took out a long, thin stick of unknown material from her storage bag, fiddled with the grass under the banyan tree, and explored it inch by inch.Rong Yu stood aside, her spiritual consciousness spread to every corner of this space to protect her.

"Look, here—" In a short while, Ye Yaoyao pushed aside the extremely thick weeds that could almost be called "haystacks", and cleared out a hole close to the banyan tree, just enough for people to jump into.

After finding the fourth road, she didn't show any joy, but stood there thinking for a while, and then said to Rong Yu, "I want to go to the tree to have a look."

If she was not mistaken, there should be one last path in the dense canopy of the old banyan tree.

Rong and Zhenxiu, raise the sword.

In an instant, the vines shining with light green brilliance fell down one after another, and were forced ten feet away by the sword light.

Ye Yaoyao flicked her brocade cloak, jumped onto the banyan tree with her strength, carefully stepped on the blank space in her memory that was not covered by vines, and searched little by little.With great difficulty, at the top of the banyan tree, that is, the place blocked by dense branches and leaves, I found that part of the thick trunk was hollow, which happened to be a hidden passage.

After doing this, she jumped down neatly and asked, "Above or below, which do you think is better?"

Rong Yu asked, "Which one do you think Yue Qianzhao will go to?"

Ye Yaoyao didn't even think about it, and said directly: "Obviously, above. But if you follow the principle of the mutual generation of gold and water, and the flying stars in the nine palaces just now... I think these two paths should be correct, at least they are less dangerous." , maybe the difference lies only in what we will encounter after we choose, or... how far will we go?"

Speaking of this, she smiled, and said: "I'm afraid that I've been speculating about what Qian Zhao will do, and my thinking has been misled invisibly. Even if I change my mind now and think about it again, I have a conclusion in my heart, and I will definitely Unconsciously biased. So, you get it."

"Since you think it's good, why do you ask me again, so as to influence your decision?" Rong Yu glanced at the top of the banyan tree, jumped up very simply, then lowered his head, looked at Ye Xinyao, stretched out his left hand, He said calmly, "Come on!"

The two slid down from the branches of the banyan tree and fell into an extremely wide cave.

When you look up a little, you can find the ancient stalactites in the cave here.

Surprisingly, these stalactites are born in a very strange way, like poisonous snakes that hiss and spit out their letters; , a tiger taking a nap and resting... There are many kinds, and there are so many.

The animal-like stalactites are just the most common type in this cave, and there are countless more grotesque ones, such as Yaksha, Rakshasa, Yingzhao, Zhong Kui, zombies... All kinds of messy things have come and are displayed around. Astonishing, but also a little scary.

Ye Yaoyao and Rong Yu looked around, especially after walking around these lifelike stalactites for a long time, Ye Yaoyao said with some concern: "I don't think this is a natural place! It seems that someone deliberately made it for the red lotus. Come out with these things."

Although nature is uncanny and wonderful, it has a "degree".They wouldn't be surprised at all if Xuanmu Cave was filled with evil spirits, breeding all kinds of demons and ghosts.But Ye Yaoyao really couldn't take it as a natural place that was full of mysterious atmosphere and made people feel very uncomfortable.

"I think..." Ye Yaoyao thought for a while and came to a conclusion, "This may be the handiwork of the powerful Wu Clan."

"Witches" are similar to but very different from Shinto monks. The similarity is that they are extremely dependent on incense and beliefs; natural phenomena, even one's own ancestors, etc., draw strength from them.Shinto monks regard themselves as gods and make themselves the belief of others. They absolutely don't believe in anyone, let alone believe in them.

Since there is a contradiction at the root, the two naturally cannot go anywhere together. However, since both Shinto monks and witches are suppressed by Buddhism, Taoism and demons, the living space is relatively small, and they don't usually come out and walk around very much.With Yue Qianzhao's mouth, his experience of traveling all over the world, and his status as a Shinto monk, if he fools someone who doesn't know how to do it, the other party may really think that the two are inseparable.

For example, the same member, but due to conflicting ideas, two completely different teams?There are too many such examples, who would doubt the authenticity?
Thinking of this, Ye Yaoyao couldn't help but smile wryly.

Qianzhao wrote down his notes, originally as a "just in case" plan, how could he write down the important details one by one, so that the enemy felt that everything could be understood from the notes, and did not give him a way out?In addition, when Qian Zhao passed away, the two did not have much time to analyze and explain one by one, leading to the current situation, it is truly understandable.It's just... understanding is understanding, every time she thinks that Qian Zhao knows a lot about Xuan Mi Dongtian, but because they didn't write it down, they have to explore repeatedly, Ye Yaoyao really wants to beat him up!

Rong Yu had never met any witch before, so he asked, "What's so difficult about the witch clan?"

Ye Yao shrugged, and replied: "Any troublesome thing in the world, in the final analysis, comes from the word 'don't understand'. I don't know much about witches. Which branch of witches is related to Xuanmu Dongtian, naturally I am a little depressed."

"Little is known? Could it be that the Daoist sect has little connection with the Wu clan?"

"To be precise, almost all monks, whether they are humans, demons, demons or ghosts, have nothing to do with witches." Ye Xinyao corrected, "Those who are related to 'wu', except for some coincidences, entered the witch clan by mistake." In addition to the lucky ones who did not die due to various reasons, they inherited the blood of the ancient great witch and were born in the village of the Wu tribe. The Wu tribe often intermarries and lives together. Although the punishment is harsh and the hierarchy is clear, but There are very few traitors, or traitors will be dealt with quickly by them internally, and they will basically not let the other party escape to the outside. Their xenophobia is very serious, and their aesthetics are somewhat different from ordinary people, even if they are peerless beauties …If you want to sacrifice your own body to join the Wu Clan, your chances of success may not be great, let alone touch the core of the Wu Clan. Besides, the inheritance of the Wu Clan is still an ancient one. She lives in seclusion, talks about gods and gods, and is very secretive. Those who did not inherit the position of wizards are all strong and strong, and their body training skills are very good; those who inherit the position of wizards are very respected in the village, but they seem to be With special restrictions, it is almost impossible to capture prisoners."

When Rong Yu was still a martial artist, he had been to the southwest of the small world of Banyuan, and had some contact with the people of Miao Village.Hearing what Ye Xinyao said, he contacted the various rules in the Miao village, and then thought about the almost paranoid ancestral precepts of the Ye family in Tan County, and after a little thought, he understood the reason.

It is difficult for people who have inherited special bloodlines to reproduce, and the number must be far less than ordinary people.If they were allowed to contact outsiders, within a hundred years, the village might be left with an empty shell, and the tribe would cease to exist.

Of course it is not good to stand still and be complacent, but if the price of progress is to sacrifice the essence of traditional culture, it can only depend on personal choice.

Obviously, the Wu people were unwilling to sacrifice their beliefs, so they chose to live in the ancient inheritance, immerse themselves in the glory of the past, and be different from others.
