Chapter 93 The Deepest Secret

Since returning from the ancestral land, Bai Lu's whole person has been a little bad.

Just when she was offering incense to the ancestor, she clearly heard a strange voice, and she always felt that there was a ghost crying.

But there is clearly the ancestral land of Yunxuezong, and Yunxuezong is a famous sect, how can there be evil in such a place?

At that time, the deputy suzerain and several elders were there. If there was that voice, they would definitely have heard it.

But the voice was real, and she still remembered that sad tone to this day.

For a while, Bai Lu couldn't tell whether she was hallucinating from hunger, or if there was something strange there.

She wanted to find someone to discuss it, but found that there were raw faces around, and her sister had never come out since she entered the back mountain.

"Really, he said that he came to watch me practice, but in the end he only cared about himself."

Walking in the crowd of new beginner disciples, Bai Lu listened carefully and found that everyone was normal and did not mention the strange voice.

She couldn't help but glanced back, the spirit fox sculpture in the ancestral land was still there, I don't know how many years have passed, giving people a vague feeling.

Not long after walking, Bai Lu suddenly saw Luo Xin, her sister's personal maid standing there, and she hurried over.

"Sister Luo Xin, you are here, where's my sister?"

Luo Xin saluted: "Second Miss, Miss, she is busy practicing. This is the Qi Condensation Pill that she asked me to bring to you."

"that."

"Second miss, the slaves are going to go back to serve Miss, so I won't disturb you. Miss asked me to tell you, good life practice, don't lose the face of the Bai family.

She hopes that you can come to Houshan as soon as possible and meet her. "

After saying this, Luo Xin hurriedly left.

Bai Lu had a moment of suffering.

After eating something bad at random, it was already dusk when Shiro revealed.

The blue lake in the sect was shimmering in the afterglow of the setting sun.

She walked over and stood by the lake, thoughtful.

At this time, a few plump carp were swimming in the shallow water, very comfortable.

Bai Lu couldn't help thinking, these days, it's not some kind of ginseng juice soup, it's ice and snow lotus twelve medicine porridge, the mouth is about to fade out of the bird, why don't you catch the two tails and bake them?

Don't tell me, she took the seasoning with her when she left home.

But she soon discovered that the fishes actually swam over and spat out strings of bubbles in front of her, as if begging for food.

At first, there were not many of these fish, only a dozen or so, but later they gathered more and more, and they gathered more and more, so densely packed that it made one's scalp tingle.

Bai Lu couldn't help but took two steps back, because she was really startled.

I saw those fish gathered together, their mouths open wide, and some even came out of the water, spitting bubbles.

They looked extremely hungry, as if they hadn't eaten for a long time, but they were extremely fat, and some of the fish scales had fallen off a lot, and the fish whiskers hung around their mouths like meat tubes. I don't know how many years they lived. Gives a sense of decadence.

The most important thing is that Bai Lu always feels that they are watching her all the time.

Those fish eyes are shrouded in the afterglow of the setting sun, like some cold eyes hiding in dark corners, with bad intentions.

Bai Lu didn't dare to stay any longer and left in a hurry.

Several times she looked back and saw that the group of fish were still gathering there with their mouths open and looking at her with strange eyes.

It's like, it's like sending her to death.

As soon as this idea came up, all the hair on Bai Lu's body stood up.

I chose a Yunxuezong because it was close to my home. Wouldn't this kind of big sect be really weird?so unlucky?

For a time, Bai Lu was trembling.

Otherwise, ask the teacher tomorrow?
Yes, now that she is also a beginner, there should be a teacher to teach her.

The so-called "gatekeeper" is the person who guards the door.

It was the first time for Ji Que to be a concierge, but he quickly adapted to the role and even fell in love with the profession.

Ji Que's "Master" is an old man surnamed Luo.

Because of the accumulation of comprehension, he was worried that this errand could not be done well, and he took out paper and wrote down the key points.

The errands of the concierge are generally easy. As long as there are no outsiders visiting, just find a chair and sit there, and you can spend the day leisurely; and if there are outsiders visiting, then check it out and let people in.

Sometimes, there is even a little power. For example, if anyone near the gate smashes flowers and plants by littering, spitting and destroying the environment, he will take care of them.

In short, everything is for the image of Zongmen.

Of course, Yunxuezong has many gates, so Ji Que is not looking at the outermost one, but the alchemy room.

There are a lot of medicinal pills in the alchemy room, which are worth a lot of money, and alchemy is a rather complicated and focused task, so it is necessary to have a concierge to take care of it.

On the first day, Ji Que did a very smooth job. He looked at the door, asked people, sent a letter, etc. It was relaxed and he sat there drinking tea most of the time.

There was an accident in the middle, that is to ask an old man to pick up the wine gourd that was thrown around, and ask the other party to clean up the wine on the ground.

Don't leave unless you clean up.

In the end, the old man just picked up the wine gourd, and didn't care about spilling it on the wine pipe, and glared at him when he left.

"This stinky old man is quite arrogant!" Ji Que said sullenly.

If he hadn't kept a low profile as an undercover agent, he would probably have wiped the old man on the ground and wiped his face clean.

In the end, he wrote down the old man's mistakes in a notebook, and then watched how old man Luo dealt with it.

Although an undercover agent has to keep a low profile, he has to play his role well. Being a concierge is not advisable.

Just like the uncle and aunt of the concierge of the school in the last life, once the door to the bedroom is closed, the mandarin ducks, no matter how hard they are, have to be broken up.

Anyway, after looking at the piece of paper, Old Man Luo fell ill and took several days off.

He later learned that the smelly old man who threw the gourd was a worshiper here, who was second only to the elders. It was said that he had a very small mind.

But he didn't come to find Ji Que's trouble.

All I can say is that he was lucky.

On the third night, Ji Que had completely adapted to the role of the porter and knew that he had to act.

That night, it was Old Man Luo's turn to be on duty, and he was given free time.

Ji Que dressed up that night, wearing a mask for disguise, and went straight out the door.

In the past few days, he seemed to be only in the concierge, but in fact, he had made a lot of preparations, such as reading the map that Lin Xiangzhi had marked when he got up early and went out to work.

Before coming, he already had a brief map of Yunxuezong, but he did not elaborate it.

This task naturally fell on the lovely cat.

Lin Xiangzhi gave him a map, nibbled on a cold steamed bun, and said dejectedly, "I'm exhausted, so will you give me this?"

Ji Que reassured: "This concierge's food is like this, bear with it, I can't expose my identity for the sake of delicious food. I'll find an opportunity to invite you to eat venison."

"Vison, really? Not a pancake?"

"When have I ever painted a pie?"

"Okay, trust you again. By the way, be careful, I don't see anything weird about the place you're going to, but it makes me a little uncomfortable."

With that said, Lin Xiangzhi stretched out after a long day and was about to find a place to sleep, and Ji Que's activities had just begun.

The place he is going tonight is the ancestral land of Yunxuezong.

According to the information from the previous senior, the last place he went to was the ancestral land.

There was no lake in the ancestral land, not even a pool of water. He had to confirm how much the ancestral land was related to the information on "the bottom of the lake, fish corpses."

There are no stars and no moon tonight, and the Yunxue Sect in the night is very quiet.

The buildings built along the mountain are only lit with lights in a few places. If the mountains at night are like lurking giant beasts, those lights are like their eyes.

Ji Que walked in the shadow of the dark place and landed silently.

The disciples who encountered patrolling in the middle of it all avoided it easily.

Similar to what the intelligence pioneer Lin Xiangzhi had seen, the vast majority of these outer sect disciples were around the second realm of Qi-mining realm, and there was still a slight gap between Ji Que, the new Jin-jin realm of the third realm.

Especially when it came to the ancestral land in the back, there were no buildings around, only a mudstone road and lush trees.

Ji Que was once again unbearable, let go of himself, gliding lightly, and jumping up in two stages.

To be honest, when he first saw this ancestral land in this dim environment, Ji Que did not feel the heritage and momentum of the so-called famous sect, but felt like a tomb.

In the words of Lin Xiangzhi's cat, she felt uncomfortable here.

Cats are supposed to be more sensitive to evil things. Does that mean that there is really a problem here?

At this moment, Ji Que flashed and hid behind a big tree.

Through the lush vegetation, he saw that there was someone at the end of the gravel road.

It was a man in a black robe, who could not see the male or female, and was offering incense to the spirit fox statue.

In the darkness, the fragrant sparks became the only light source here, reflecting a pale face as pale as paper.

No, to be precise, that's a paper face.

The man was wearing a white mask, except for white, there was no extra color on the mask, and it looked like a white board in a bamboo card.

The purple incense was stuck on the ground, and the white-faced man bowed again to the spirit fox statue, muttering words.

Standing here, Ji Que couldn't hear what he was reading at all.

The tone of the voice was very flat, and it was impossible to distinguish between men and women, and there was no emotion. It was like the sound of two pieces of iron squeezed. It had no emotion at all, and it was very uncomfortable to hear.

In such a late night, a person wearing such a strange mask worships the spirit fox here, and there is an unspeakable strange feeling.

Before long, the mysterious white-faced man stood up, sneered, and said, "It's useless."

There was no one there, but he seemed to be talking to someone.

For a while, Ji Que hid behind the tree, let alone breathing, the pores on his body were closed, just like a stone.

The man came over from the end of the road, not in a hurry.

In the darkness, the white mask on his face was quite conspicuous, like a human face floating in the air.

Ji Que looked at his hairstyle and body shape, but felt that it was unremarkable, and it was difficult to find decent features.

After that, the white-faced man left, and Ji Que still didn't move.

He didn't move again until two incense sticks had passed and it was determined that no one had returned.

Ji Que put on the black mask he had prepared, and came under the spirit fox statue in the ancestral land. He looked around and found nothing unusual.

Was that person talking to this and the spirit fox statue just now?
In the darkness of the night, the face of this spirit fox statue has long been eroded by wind and rain, and there are some holes on it, which has a gloomy feeling.

However, Ji Que took a look around, and even confirmed the male and female of the statue, but still found nothing unusual.

So Ji Que smoked a freshly lit incense from the white-faced man, put it in the other's mouth, and said, "Dude, you can talk to me if you have something to say."

Linghu stood there smoking a cigarette, but did not respond.

It seems that the questioning will not work.

"Bottom of the lake, fish carcasses."

In the end, Ji Que couldn't help but set his eyes on the well next to him.

Because whether it is the bottom of the lake or the fish corpse, it is all related to water.

And the well happens to be taking water.

But this is a dry well, and the markings on Lin Xiangzhi's map are clearly written.

Ji Que felt that it was necessary to go down and have a look.

The dark wellhead, once it exceeds a certain distance, will be as dark as ink, and nothing can be seen clearly.

Ji Que didn't hesitate, and slid down against the wall of the well.

Soon, Ji Que was enveloped in darkness. The inside of this ancient well was narrow and there was no light at all.

In this case, even though Ji Que had sharp eyes, he still couldn't see the surroundings, so he lightly tapped the Thousand Machine Sword behind him.

A little light source lit up at the hilt of the sword, illuminating the wall of the well.

This well is quite deep, and it was dry at the initial depth of about ten feet. When the finger slipped against the wall, there would be dust rolling, but at the back, slippery moss appeared.

These moss are distributed on the wall of the well, here and there, looking like snot, a little disgusting.

The deeper the well, the more humid it is. Does this prove that it is not a dry well?

Ji Que continued to slide down, and occasionally raised his head, only to feel that the wellhead seemed to have become much smaller.

In this case, people's perception of time and distance will be biased.

In this cold ancient well, even Ji Que felt a little bit of fear.

This is human instinct and cannot be avoided.

He continued to slide, and suddenly, a handsome half of his face suddenly appeared in front of him, startling him.

It turns out that there is actually water in the well.

The faint well water, whose depth could not be seen clearly, reflected Ji Que's half-covered face.

He found that the camouflage was not comprehensive enough, so he quickly took off the black mask and put a new one on his face.

This mask has exactly nine cylinder patterns, covering almost all of his face, much like the nine cylinders in the bamboo card.

The light on the hilt of the sword reflected the water in the well, and it seemed like a gateway to another world.

Ji Que took a deep breath, slammed into the water, and slid down.

The well water was icy cold, with a biting chill.

However, Ji Que has accumulated an unknown amount of True Essence during this period of time, and he is not afraid of the cold. Maybe because he is proficient in swimming, after entering the water, he feels like a fish in water.

It just didn't take long before the well bottomed out.

Well water is not deep.

The wall of the well is covered with smooth moss.

Ji Que Taijiquan vigorously stirred, and the moss in front of him was swept away immediately and gathered together to form a green ball.

The scene in the cave wall suddenly appeared.

The light on the hilt is refracted by the well water, illuminating the surrounding environment.

For a time, everything in this well was filled with an ancient atmosphere that made it daunting.

Ji Que didn't find anything. He felt that he was thinking wrong. There is nothing here, and the missing senior has never been here.

He stuck his head out of the well water, and at this moment, he noticed something strange.

I saw a claw mark on the wall of the well.

The claw marks are very clear and messy.

But Ji Que still recognized what the word was - "He's coming out, he's coming out!".

Seeing this line of words, Ji Que in this dark ancient well had a creepy feeling.

This line of characters is very small, and it can even be said to have a morbid distortion, as if the feeling of fear can be transmitted through the stone wall.

He is coming out, who is he referring to?
Immediately afterwards, Ji Que saw a name, a name that made his scalp tingle.

Fang Sihai.

Fang Sihai was the name of the senior spy he was looking for.

He has been here before, and even carved such a twisted line here.

What has he experienced here?Why engrave such a line?

Is he coming out?
What about the back?
At the bottom of the lake, what about the fish carcasses?

What does this have to do with "the bottom of the lake, fish carcasses"?
A cold and terrifying feeling enveloped Ji Que, making his breathing a little heavy.

At this moment, only the sound of falling water was heard, and there should be some water droplets dripping down from the well.

Ji Que raised his finger, and when he picked it up, he found that his fingertips were dyed bright red.

Blood?

 Sorry for the late update, I have been driving for a day, if there is only one chapter a day, it is because one chapter is 4K or 5K, or more, which is equivalent to two chapters for others.
