C31

Meng Xiaodie thought that Shi Jian could have disappeared in an instant. Where could he go? It was very possible that he had entered an underground castle. Right now, the only way out was to jump up. If he risked it all, perhaps this would be the entrance to the underground castle.

Thinking of this, without hesitation, Meng Xiaodie jumped onto the stone platform. He only felt his body spinning rapidly. His vision turned dark, and when he looked again, he was already on a street.

It was not a wide street, paved with stone, and the houses on either side were built of stone. He saw a full moon on top of the house, and he was surprised to see it so large and round, as if it were within reach. Just as he was looking around, he suddenly heard a sound behind him, followed by another sound, as if someone was jumping over to ambush him. Meng Xiaodie did not turn around, only holding her black sword in her hand as she jumped up, turning around and slashing downwards in the air.

It turned out that Shen Hong and Wei Ke were standing behind him. The two of them were stunned and had yet to recover from their shock.

"What is this place?" Shen Hong looked around at the surroundings and then looked at Meng Xiaodie in confusion.

"I don't know either. In short, this place is strange. It doesn't look like an underground castle, but more like a town."

"Yeah, why does this place look a little familiar, it seems like …"

"Mage City." Shen Hong and Wei Ding shouted at the same time.

"What?" We're back in the Mage City? This is impossible. " Meng Xiaodie didn't believe him at all.

"Look, that's Wu Ji's Satin Manor. I've made clothes there before, this street should be Green Willow Street."

"Why is there no one on this street, that's not right. Don't tell me it's midnight?" Wei Ke rubbed his eyes and looked around carefully. Indeed, the surroundings were completely silent. Not only was there no one around him, there was no light, not even a single sound could be heard.

At this time, there were a few shadows that were moving quietly. Those shadows were all bent over, moving slowly, little by little towards this direction.

The three of them hid in the shadows, and just as the black shadows approached them and were about to attack, Wei Ke called out, "Ghost head, is it you? "We're all on the same side."

It seemed that another group of brothers had arrived. Meng Xiaodie quickly asked about the situation in the stone room. The one called Ghost Head said that everyone jumped onto the stone platform, and the last one was Jiang Bufan, who was the last one.

Meng Xiaodie looked at Shen Hong, and Shen Hong said, "I was the one who let Jiang Xian take the back. After all, he has strong kung fu skills, and if he encounters danger, he can still take responsibility.

Everyone reported the number of people, including the three, for a total of nine people. Their expedition team had a total of thirty people. Two of them were killed by the Linglong Beast in the Linglong Courtyard, and another one was killed by the White Stone Hand in the cave. There were still twenty-seven people left, so there were still eighteen people who had yet to meet up with them.

Since Phantom Head and Jiang Bufan were the last ones to jump onto the stone platform, they should have already gone over. However, they were still nowhere to be seen.

"Looks like you won't be coming over." Meng Xiaodie said.

Shen Hong looked back and forth before saying, "Let's wait a little longer."

After a while, there was still no movement.

Meng Xiaodie said, "I'm afraid that there is no point in waiting any longer. Since the ghost head is the second from last, other than Jiang Bufan, everyone else has already come in. We are only waiting for Jiang Bufan."

According to everyone's calculations, even Jiang Bufan should have come in long ago. However, after waiting for a long time, he was nowhere to be seen.

After waiting for about half an incense stick of time and seeing that no one would come over, they decided …

Walking down the street and past the silk house, he saw that the door was closed and a white lantern hung in front of it. Going forward, he came closer and closer to the full moon.

"The moon is really big tonight, just like the fake one." The ghost head walked beside Meng Xiaodie, and he reminded her of something unintentional.

Meng Xiaodie suddenly stopped, "What did you say? The moon is fake? "

The ghost head rolled his eyes and giggled, "I was just joking, how can the moon in the sky be fake?"

"What if it's not the sky?"

"Meng Xiaodie, are you kidding? If that isn't heaven, then is it earth?" Shen Hong said.

"It could also be the ground."

Shen Hong harrumphed. She didn't understand why Meng Xiaodie would still be in the mood to joke around at this time.

At this moment, Shen Hong's mood was especially depressed. If they were to return to the Mage City, this operation would end in failure. How would she explain this to the City Lord?

Just as she was deep in thought, she heard a whoosh, and a black shadow flew into the air. Shen Hong raised his head to look and saw Meng Xiaodie leap into the air. She had already arrived at the roof and he was dashing forward on the roof. He gradually disappeared into the darkness as if he was walking on flat ground. After a while, Meng Xiaodie appeared on the roof again and then jumped over.

"What do you think I saw?" Meng Xiaodie asked mysteriously.

"What did you see? It can't be a ghost, right?" On the way here, Wei said, he was extremely nervous. He was really afraid that he would encounter something strange again.

Meng Xiaodie smiled and shook her head, "If I tell you, I'm afraid you won't believe me. I touched the moon in the sky."

"What? How is that possible? With just this bit of time, could it be that you've ascended to the heavens?" Shen Hong widened his eyes in disbelief.

"I knew that you all wouldn't believe it. The moon was real or fake. It was a circular wind lamp hanging on the wall."

"That moon is a lamp. You mean we're still underground?" Shen Hong jumped up in surprise.

Meng Xiaodie nodded, "We should be in the underground castle right now. I looked down from the top and saw that there are nine streets in this castle. The design is circular. In the middle of the castle is a tall building that looks like a temple."

Shen Hong revealed a surprised expression, "So this underground castle's layout is really the same as that of the Mage City. It's said that this is the arrangement of the eight trigrams in the Nine Palaces, and the Earth Demons are located in the temple in the middle. If we want to enter the temple, we must break the divine beads on these nine streets."

This was Meng Xiaodie's first time hearing about the God Orbs. It seemed like Shen Hong had hidden many things. Perhaps it was Sha Tianfeng who told her to do so, but what secrets were hidden in this underground castle? He still knew nothing. However, ever since they entered the cave, Meng Xiaodie clearly knew that there was a demonic mana controlling the underground castle, and also preventing them from invading. Could this caster really be an Earth Devil?

"Do you know where the divine bead is?" Meng Xiaodie pondered for a while before asking Shen Hong. I do not know, but the divine bead is a divine object similar to a sacrificial offering.

"Right now we only have one room to look for, so it might be troublesome."

"Which street should we start with? It's a pity that Jiang Bufan is not around. He knows a little about the Upper Sky trigrams and can come up with a method to solve it. " Shen Hong sighed. Although she was a little disgusted with Jiang Bufan, she was willing to cooperate with him in order to break through the Nine Palace's gossip.
