Daxia Lingxian

Chapter 276 Who Are You? (two in one)

Hearing what Mu Ji said, Luo Ning suddenly felt a little nervous.

"No...mouse?"

The young man couldn't help but hold the dry pipe.The dry pipe is the only thing he carries with him, like a folding fan in the hands of a coquettish scholar.

This Longyu pipe is one foot and five inches long, and the pipe is like a small hammer. It is actually a handy weapon.

Mu Ji glanced at Luo Ning's pipe, and said in a deep voice:
"Not sure. However, the giant poisonous spiders haven't caught mice for several days. It's strange."

"I didn't eat for several days, and I was really hungry."

He finished speaking slowly, took the time to tidy up his beautiful little beard, and neatly folded the dirty ornate handkerchief again.

He seemed to be very concerned about this handkerchief.

As soon as Mu Ji finished speaking, he heard a creepy "squeak" sound from behind the stone pillar not far away, as if something was biting and fighting with each other.

"They devoured each other again." Mou Ji sighed, "Is there really no mouse? This is troublesome."

Luo Ning stood up and walked over to take a look, only to see two giant poisonous spiders biting each other, the venom from the wounds splashed all over the place, and when it splashed onto the ground, it was as black as ink.

Not long after, a giant poisonous spider was defeated and was bitten to death by another one, absorbing all the juice in its body, becoming an empty shell and dying.

Obviously, the native poisonous spiders here have no food.

Luo Ning looked at the huge underground ancient temple that could hardly be seen from the corner and was hidden in the darkness, and he couldn't help feeling a surge of horror in his heart.

Without his cultivation base and mana, he can't be much stronger than an ordinary strong man, and it's too dangerous here.

How did Mu Ji manage to stay here for fifteen months and still look so full of energy?
Luo Ning turned his head, looked at Mu Ji under the dim light, and found a problem.

Even Mu Ji thinks that the rats have been eaten, but he is still... calm and composed!
He was trapped here for fifteen months, knowing that he would not be able to pass the second test of the Concubine Zhen, and knowing that his escape from the predicament was far away, but he didn't feel any anxiety at all!
Is this what a trapped person in a desperate situation should look like?
Why are you not in a hurry when you obviously can't get out?
Luo Ning's phoenix eyes happened to meet Shang Mou Ji's gentle, steady, clean eyes that are harmless to humans and animals.

Both of them looked at each other and smiled.

Luo Ning withdrew his eyes, and clouds rose again in his heart.

Judging from the fact that Mou Ji seriously injured the giant poisonous spider with one punch, and easily suppressed these giant poisonous spiders that could easily eat ordinary people, Mou Ji's cultivation...is definitely not just a fifth-grade perfection!

In this hall sealed off by the poison domain, there is no magic power.

However, he can casually deliver a punch that weighs more than a thousand catties.

His cultivation base is at least a fourth-grade perfection, even... a grandmaster!
Otherwise, there would not be such a strong physical strength.

Just say that I am in the middle stage of the fifth rank, and my real strength is at least the fifth rank.But right now, his punch is only five hundred catties at most, which is far inferior to Mu Ji, who has a punch of more than 1000 catties.

However, Aunt Tang Xiang said that Mou Ji is a fifth-rank monk.

This only shows that Mu Ji concealed his true cultivation.

Just because of concealing his true cultivation, he knew that Mu Ji could not be an honest person.

Luo Ning was even more vigilant, he didn't want to sit with Mu Ji.

Because, Mu Ji's physical strength is much stronger than him, so he can't beat him.

The talisman will not take effect under this ancient poison domain array.

Here, relying purely on physical strength.

Being too close to Mou Ji, Mou Ji could kill him at any time, and he didn't even have time to react.

Thinking of this, Luo Ning decided to find another place, farther away from Mu Ji.

"Ning'er." Mu Ji's voice came, with a hint of concern, "Come and sit, there are lights here. It's too dark in other places."

"Uh..." Luo Ning smiled, "I'm not afraid of the dark, so I just want to visit other places."

Mu Ji's smile was gentle and considerate, "There's nothing to see, dark places are dangerous, there are too many poisonous spiders and insects, and there are monsters hidden."

"They are afraid of the light."

Hearing this, Luo Ning couldn't help feeling his scalp tingle.

However, the more gentle and caring Mu Ji was, the less he dared to sit with Mu Ji.

However, the only light around Mu Ji made him very envious.

"Senior, this lamp..."

Luo Ning really wanted to know where did Mu Ji get the lamp.

Mu Ji smiled.

"This is a lamp lit by mouse oil. The meat of the mouse can be eaten, the oil can be used to light the lamp, and the skin can be used as a lampshade... the whole body is full of treasures."

Luo Ning chuckled, "Senior, I'd like to borrow a lamp to see other places."

Mu Ji stopped laughing.

Under the light, his face was cloudy and uncertain, and it became strange and unpredictable.

Seeing this, Luo Ning also felt uneasy.

At the end, suddenly Mou Ji smiled again, "I can give you a lamp, but to see the danger in the dark, you have to rely on yourself."

After speaking, he took down a mouse skin lamp, and said very crisply: "Take it."

Luo Ning stepped forward cautiously, and took it carefully, "Thank you, senior!"

While feeling relieved, he thought to himself, "Did you misunderstand him?"

"Ning'er." Mou Ji showed concern again, "Go and come back quickly, don't go too far, lest I go find you and save you."

"I only give you a quarter of an hour. If I don't see you for a quarter of an hour, I can only save you."

"The deeper the darkness, the more poison there is. Don't go deep. Remember."

His tone and expression are very solemn.

"Okay, I'm just looking around casually, and I'll be back soon." Luo Ning wished he could get out of Mu Ji's sight immediately, took the mouse lamp and left directly.

Mu Ji kept staring at Luo Ning's back until Luo Ning's figure disappeared into the darkness.

Holding the mouse skin lamp, Luo Ning walked deep, feeling sad in his heart.

People's hearts.

Why is it so dark?Even darker than this huge underground palace.

There are only two people, who obviously should unite as one and overcome difficulties with each other honestly, but they are suspicious and wary of each other.

I am like this.Mou Ji... is even more unpredictable.

Of course Luo Ning would not listen to Mu Ji's advice.There are dangers in the depths, but in this place, what is more dangerous than Mu Ji?
Once he can't bear the hunger, will he kill himself...cannibalize human flesh?

At this moment, Luo Zhiyuan would rather face unknown poisonous insects than Mou Ji.

People's hearts... too dangerous!
Don't dare to gamble.

Luo Ning held the dry pipe tightly in one hand, and held the mouse skin lamp in the other.While looking at the six directions, while listening to the eight directions.

Every step is taken carefully, every nerve is tense.

Even if some poisonous insects wanted to attack him, it would be very difficult to succeed.

Luo Ning just wanted to be farther away from Mu Ji, and now he went straight to the depths.

Suddenly a black shadow came, and Luo Ning subconsciously swung out the pipe, with a force of five hundred catties, as fast as lightning.

The dry tobacco bag sent by Dorgon was made from dragon jade.And dragon jade is a high-grade real material, which is tougher than ordinary steel.

Hearing the sound of "Peng", a giant poisonous spider flew out, fell to the ground and struggled painfully, seeing that it was dead.

The other giant poisonous spiders around who were waiting for an opportunity to pounce on them didn't dare to go forward when they saw this.

The poisonous insects in the dark retreated when they saw the light.

Luo Ning held a dry pipe in his hand, and his courage grew stronger and stronger.

How dangerous is the place where Master Confucius has been?
Could it be that the current self is not as good as that peacock?

Although his cultivation was imprisoned, he was still a senior monk with a weapon in his hand, so he still had a certain amount of self-protection power.

Luo Ning quickened his pace, crossed huge stone pillars one after another, and walked up one step after another, getting higher and higher.

The distance from Mu Ji's position is also getting farther and farther away, and the surroundings are getting more and more gloomy, and the patterns of silkworm face masks and poisonous birds are getting denser and denser.

Mou Ji probably never imagined that Luo Ning dared to go so deep.

Suddenly, a large dead tree faintly appeared in front of him.

"In the underground palace, why is there such a big dead tree?"

Luo Ning stopped in his tracks, observed it carefully for a while, and finally concluded that it was a dead ancient tree that was thick and thin, and whose crown was invisible.

This dead tree looks like... a big mulberry tree?

Well, Concubine Zhen is the concubine of the Can family of the Shu king. There are also many patterns of silkworm face masks here. It is not surprising that there are mulberry trees.

However, the appearance of a tree in the burial palace is a bit strange.

Luo Ning took two more steps and found that there was actually a pond behind the dead ancient mulberry tree.

The pool is similar to a bath, and it hasn't dried up yet. The pool is full of still water that is extremely quiet.

Could it be that Mu Ji lived here for more than a year, and drank the water here?
Luo Ning bypassed the dead Gusang far away, came to the edge of the pool, and looked at the water carefully.

After looking at it for a long time, the water in the ancient well does not have any waves, it is extremely quiet.

Set against the ancient mulberry not far away, it shows an indescribable and strange beauty.

Luo Ning felt that something had happened in this place.

Luo Ning took a closer look and found that there seemed to be something like a sack under the dead ancient mulberry tree.

what?
Luo Ning didn't dare to get too close, he always felt that there was something dangerous on the ancient mulberry tree.

After staring at it for a while, Luo Ning couldn't help but feel an extremely weird feeling in his heart.

The sack-like thing under the tree actually seemed to be a huge...cocoon!

Like a giant cocoon!

There are silkworm cocoons on mulberry trees, which is of course normal.But this cocoon... is too big.

Such a big cocoon, let alone a silkworm, even a person can hold it.

Could this be the Heavenly Worm Dao Cocoon?As soon as the huge surprise rose, it was snuffed out by Luo Ning himself.

He is sure that this thing is definitely not a cocoon of worms!
The cocoon of the Heavenly Insect Dao must be hidden in the tomb of the King of Shu, which is the mysterious Diebian Mountain.Impossible in the tomb of Concubine Zhen.

Moreover, this giant cocoon is not at all what a treasure should be.

Luo Ning slowly approached a few steps, and found that the giant cocoon had broken a hole.

This shows that... there is a huge silkworm that broke out of the cocoon after turning into a butterfly.

With such a big cocoon, how big will the butterfly that breaks out of the cocoon be?

Silkworms as big as grown men?
where did it go

Luo Ning took a few steps back, away from the dead ancient sang that made him uneasy, and approached the pool again.

But at this moment, there was a sudden ripple in the pool, as if something floated from the deep bottom of the pool.

Luo Ning's hair exploded, he stepped back suddenly, and jumped onto a low wall.

Soon, something surfaced.

When Luo Ning saw it, his eyes froze.

It turned out to be a person!
No, it should be a corpse.

A naked, naked... male corpse!
The man was dead.But he has a handsome face, especially the beautiful mustache, which is very eye-catching.

Luo Ning saw the man's face clearly, and with a trembling hand, he almost threw away the mouse skin lantern in his hand!
Almost exclaimed.

The male corpse that floated up from the bottom of the pool was actually... Mu Ji!
The body shape, facial features, and beard are definitely Mu Ji!

Although Luo Ning was always bold, he was suddenly covered in cold sweat and couldn't help but shudder.

The question is, if the naked male corpse in the water is Mu Ji, then...

Who was the man who had talked with me before and borrowed his mouse skin lamp?

Two halberds, one life and one death, one with clothes on and one naked?

Or...the real Mu Ji is dead, and that person stripped off his clothes and put them on, and became him?
Otherwise, why is that Mu Ji stuck here for so long, why is he not in a hurry?
Is it because he is not the real Mu Ji at all, so he is not in a hurry to get out of trouble?

Thinking of the two identical Mujis, Luo Ning suddenly thought of the compound-eyed monster that Mo Xuezong was guarding!

That compound-eyed eccentric has supernatural powers of duplication, which seems to be the law of yin and yang duality, able to duplicate a fake Liangzhou tripod.

Liangzhou tripods can be copied into fake ones, so... people?
Also, the legendary bronze sacred tree in the history of ancient Shu can also be copied... Isn't the bronze sacred tree just a mulberry tree?
And here, there is also a mulberry tree...

Luo Ning fantasized, the more he thought about it, the weirder he felt.

He shook his head and blinked, making sure it wasn't a hallucination.

The male corpse in the water floated on the surface of the water for a while, and then sank into the deep pool water again.

Luo Ning looked around, saw the broken cocoon again, and suddenly had a strange idea in his heart.

Could it be that this male corpse, which resembles Mu Ji, crawled out of that huge cocoon?
I thought that what came out of the cocoon was an adult-sized silk moth, did I make an empirical mistake?
In such a treacherous place, silkworm moths must emerge from their cocoons?Couldn't it be a... person?

Even Luo Ning himself felt that this idea was extremely absurd.

What the hell... Humans are not silkworms, how can they crawl out of silkworm cocoons?

Luo Ning doesn't want to stay in this place at all, he wants to leave!

Just as the boy was about to leave, a voice suddenly sounded from behind:
"Ning'er, what did you find?"

Luo Ning has been very careful, but unexpectedly, a person suddenly appeared behind him.

The young man was startled, and turned his head in horror, only to see Mu Ji, who was dressed in white katana and straw shoes and hemp socks, was holding a mouseskin lamp, looking at him with concern.

Seeing this Mu Ji at this moment, Luo Ning felt like his scalp was going to explode.

It's like a mortal seeing a ghost!
After all, Luo Ning is an actor, trying to calm down while smiling.

"Ning'er, what did you see?" Mu Ji asked again, his face was full of concern, "You look bad, did you meet something?"

Luo Ning shook his head and smiled in relief, "It's nothing, I'm just curious, I didn't see anything."

"Really?" Mu Ji took a step forward, only three steps away from Luo Ning.

With this distance, with Mu Ji's skill, if he made a sudden move, it would be difficult for Luo Ning to react.

Mu Ji's smile was as warm and sincere as ever, completely amiable and amiable elder demeanor, but it made Luo Ning's heart shudder.

Luo Ning naturally took a few steps away, pointed at the pool and said:
"Senior, have you been here for fifteen months to drink the water from this pool?"

Mou Ji suddenly sighed softly, smiled slightly and said:

"Ning'er, I told you not to go too far. You have to go so far. I was worried that something might happen to you, so I had to come to you."

"If something happens to you, how can I explain to your mother?"

Luo Ning forced a smile, "Yes. Senior is right, I am too curious."

Mu Ji shook his head, with a reproachful tone:

"Ning'er, why are you lying? Be honest."

"You obviously met something here, but insisted that there was nothing. Alas, is it difficult to be an honest child?"

"Why didn't you tell me what you saw?"

Luo Ning's eyelids twitched, and his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

He couldn't help but look sideways, and a pair of red phoenix eyes stared at Mu Ji's face like a knife!

"What do you think I found?"

"Then can you tell me, who are you?"

He tightly gripped the pipe in his hand, and the knuckles turned white.

"Who am I?" Mu Ji smiled when he heard the words, "Ning'er, I am your stepfather, Mu Ji."

"Don't you think that the person in the pond is Mu Ji?"

"Ning'er, I'm your stepfather, even if you don't call me daddy, don't be afraid of me? Dad can still eat you?"

After speaking, he walked towards Luo Ning.

Luo Ning flinched and shouted sharply, "You're not Mu Ji! Who are you!"

PS: Everyone is probably confused and can't guess the plot.Haha, crab crab, good night!
