C380 Magistrate
There's a foul smell in the cave. Sometimes it turned into the smell of rotten eggs. Zhang Jingxuan had already made preparations. He and Ke Lianguo both took the antidote. However, the stench didn't seem to be very poisonous.
This was a cave that no one dared to flatter. In his heart, Zhang Jingxuan was also wondering if it was really dug out by those huge Salamander and then used by humans.
He went down along the slanted hole by nearly 30 meters. He could reach the distance with just a lift of his foot on the flat ground. The two of them had to be careful of the narrow and short cave, as well as the possible sneak attacks in front of them. When they walked down, it was actually a tip. Even their bodies were covered in sweat.
Ke Lianguo said something softly behind Zhang Jingxuan's back, but Zhang Jingxuan indicated that he could not hear it clearly. He had coughed so loudly just now, why would he be afraid of exposing himself? He signaled Ke Lianguo to speak louder. Ke Lianguo raised his voice with a little grievance and said, "There seems to be a slight light in front of us."
As expected, there were really a few undetectable faint lights about thirty feet away. The two of them were even more careful, but if there were people lying in ambush... Naturally, they had already known about their arrival. This was something that they could do nothing about.
After making some preparations, Zhang Jingxuan moved closer and found a turning point in front of him. After that turning point, the light ahead became even brighter. Although it wasn't dazzling, he could still see everything clearly. It was as if there was a relatively open exit in front of them.
Zhang Jingxuan beckoned to Ke Lianguo. Before Ke Lianguo could react, he suddenly rushed forward at an astonishing speed. If there was an ambush, they would be very careful along the way. They might not have thought that he would be so reckless when he reached the exit.
In any case, an ugly wife would have to see her in-laws. Zhang Jingxuan had such an idea and rushed in.
In the end, the moment he entered, he was stunned.
Ke Lianguo saw that Zhang Jingxuan had greeted him and had yet to figure out what was going on. Seeing Zhang Jingxuan rushing out, he could only quickly get up and chase after him. He also knew that Zhang Jingxuan was thinking of an ambush. Once he rushed out, he would activate it. If he followed, he had to be able to help.
However, what he did not expect was that everything was calm in front of him. He rushed out and scanned the area. In a medium-sized chamber... Only Zhang Jingxuan's back was facing him. He was staring at the thing in front of him in a daze. He saw the dim light in the cave. It was coming from there.
Because Zhang Jingxuan's figure had blocked it, Ke Lianguo couldn't see what the light was. Ke Lianguo couldn't help but think. Could it be that Cult Master Zhang's soul was hooked by something? He used his body to block himself. If he revealed himself... Would he become the same as Cult Master Zhang?
His body was covered in sweat, and his heart was cold. He was still trembling with fear as he gathered his courage. He walked around a corner of Zhang Jingxuan's body and looked at him.
Then, he also stood still on the spot.
If it were anyone else in this position, they would be just like Zhang Jingxuan and Ke Lianguo, falling into a state of shock. At this moment, if someone tried to sneak attack them, the success rate might increase by 73%.
Zhang Jingxuan and Ke Lianguo stood there in a daze, mainly because the scene in front of them was too shocking.
In front of them stood an entire crystal wall. Because this room was at a radioactive angle, the scene that Ke Lianguo saw around Zhang Jingxuan's body was even more shocking than what he had imagined. Waves of dim light shot over through the crystal wall, covering Zhang Jingxuan and Ke Lianguo's faces.
Through the crystal wall that was almost completely transparent, Zhang Jingxuan and Ke Lianguo found that the two of them had already reached the bottom of the pool. The pond itself was shaped like the bottom of a pot, and the space at the bottom of the pond wasn't very big. The light from the bottom of the pond wasn't bad. Instead, it was emitting a faint blue light. It allowed people to see it clearly.
It was precisely because they could see it clearly that it made people's heart palpitate even more.
In the deep blue pond, there were a few figures standing there. Their gazes looked at different places. One of them had his face facing Zhang Jingxuan and Ke Lianguo. Ke Lianguo didn't know him. However, Zhang Jingxuan could clearly see that it was the old master of Tang Wu, Tang Huzhou.
At this moment, both of his eyes were lowered. His face was dark and thin, as if he had fallen asleep. However, Zhang Jingxuan knew that he should be dead by now.
He did not know what magic was in the pond, but it made Tang Huzhou fall into the water and stay upright. Besides him, there were still a few figures around him whose faces could not be seen clearly. There were a total of four of them, and they were facing different directions. There was a fat Tang Liangqin with a slightly bloated body. It was likely that his partner, Tang Zemu, was here as well.
If it weren't for the fact that these people had rushed to rescue him in time, Tang Qi would probably have gone to the netherworld to regroup with the three of them. It was just that he didn't know if their brother who had kowtowed had made an oath not to live in the same year and month, but to die in the same year and month.
Looking again, the others were all men. There were no women among them. Zhang Jingxuan thought to himself. Who would have thought that the famous Tang Wu, Tang Huzhou, would be buried in the water like this? If it wasn't for the fact that he had accidentally come here today, no one would even know the whereabouts of his life and death.
Tang Huzhou, Tang Liangqin, Tang Zemu, and the other two were unknown. Could it be that this evil place had to be sacrificed with people from Tang Sect? Zhang Jingxuan couldn't figure out what was going on. As for Ke Lianguo, he was even more frightened by this strange and terrifying scene. Tang Huzhou's face was usually calm and peaceful, but under such circumstances... It's like a judge from hell. Ke Lianguo also reacted for a while, then he realized that these people were all dead.
They were stunned for only a moment, but underneath the ground, time was like sticky malt candy, stretched out for a long time.
Zhang Jingxuan first recovered and said softly, "There seems to be no more road."
That's right. They went down to this place and searched for the truth. Although they found that these people from the Tang Sect had sunk to the bottom of the lake, they just didn't know if the other two people were the Sect Chief of the Witch Door Sect, Hai Pingtao, and his disciple. And where was Tang Fuliu?
Just as the two were about to return to their original route, they suddenly felt a strong stench coming from their noses, which made them feel annoyed. Before they could do anything, they felt a tremor under their feet.
Zhang Jingxuan felt that something was wrong. He turned his head and was about to tell Ke Lianguo to retreat quickly.
However, he heard Ke Lianguo loudly say:
"Look!"
