Chapter 44 The Test of the Viper

   He didn't rush the tired soldiers to act, probably because Gu Mo didn't have the spirit and consciousness of capitalists, and he didn't think they were working for him.

So he was very considerate and let the soldiers have a good rest, and it was not until the time entered the afternoon that they returned to the work of cleaning up the entire mansion... It's much better than the three of them who have no clue.

  ——Not even three people, it should be said that he is consciously paying attention to this matter, but it is really difficult to explain it to the other two.

As for Tokichiro, of course he didn't know, and although Hidechiyo felt that there was still a demon in the belly of the mountain, he didn't know that the secret passage into the mountain was hidden somewhere in the depths of his father's mansion, and there was not too much Thoughts... So Gu Mo was the only one who was sure about this matter, but there was no way to explain it to them.

   When he was looking for it himself, it was not suitable to be too obvious, and the workload was heavy.

   So we can only hope to let the soldiers do a carpet search. If there are a lot of people and they go through the carpet search logically, they should still be able to find the secret door.

This incident was actually smoother than he imagined. In the depths of a seemingly ordinary room, a small team of iron cannons found a wall that had been violently destroyed, as well as a dark passage behind the wall... It looked quite Obviously, as long as you come to this room, you can see it, but if there is only one person, I am afraid that it will take a long time to wander around this mansion.

   After hearing the report, the three rushed to the room and saw the damaged walls.

   It seems that it was originally designed with a subtle mechanism. Just by gently turning the torch in the corner of the side, the wall can be directly reversed, so as to enter the hidden secret passage...

  ——But now all these designs are meaningless.

Perhaps it is the masterpiece of the ghosts. This room is also a mess. The wall of the mechanism itself has also been cut through, revealing the darkness behind it. It is an artificially excavated corridor, with thick rock walls on both sides, narrow enough to only Allowing the two to walk side by side leaves little room for more.

  The corridor is long and narrow, and I don’t know where it leads, and there is no light at all.

   "Something deep in the mountainside is attracting them..."

  Tengjirou volunteered and fought against all opinions to get a chance to perform. He held a torch and accompanied by his guardian spirit, and walked in, but after a while, he came out again, and said so with a dignified expression.

   "The ghosts on this mountain are probably attracted by that thing, no matter if they have a brain or not... It's just too deep inside, bigger than I thought, I don't dare to go too far."

Regardless of whether you have a brain or not, those things can be attracted by the location in the belly of the mountain, and they instinctively find this place and find the road to the depths of the rocky mountain that is blocked by the entire mansion, indicating that the thing has a great natural meaning to them. .

  Toujiro vaguely thought of something, he had already guessed it before, but he couldn't say much after all, and he wouldn't say it clearly if he knew it. He's a real smart guy, and he doesn't look smart but is actually stupid, so of course he understands that it's not a good thing to judge, and it's even more stupid to show off what you know.

   In that case, no matter whether you guess right or wrong, there is no good result.

   "Finding the source is a good thing, it's better than we are wandering around on the mountain outside, like a headless fly..."

  Gu Mo looked at the dark corridor behind the wall, nodded, and said.

   "That's right..." Toujiro said dryly, trying to squeeze out a smile. He hesitated for a moment, then looked outside again. The soldiers were patrolling or guarding the outside. There were only three of them in this room, so he took a step closer and lowered his voice——

   "Brother Gu Mo, Miss Axiu... I think it's best not to bring too many people along here."

  “?”

   Gu Mo's expression didn't change, but Xiuchiyo, who was looking at the secret door, raised his slender and delicate eyebrows slightly.

"That's it, think about it, this must have been built in secret by the three Daoists. This shows that the three Taoists don't want others to know, no matter what is hidden in the mountainside, this must be a very important thing. ..." Toujiro tried hard to organize the language, he felt that it was really too difficult.

  I know clearly, but I have to pretend not to know.

While pretending not to know, he had to find a way to cover his boss and wipe his ass... Even this matter had nothing to do with him at first, and it was a disaster. Here you can have the opportunity to show your talents.

   But, the reality is often different from the ideal situation.

In the past half a month, he has not had much to show his talents. He is not familiar with the place he expected to live in, and has been harassed by various local interest groups. In the end, it is just right to show his means and value. To be in good order, it seems that he is the same without him.

Because he felt that he had nothing indispensable, for fear that his value could not be reflected and appreciated, he also tried his best, but still could not find any good way, and at this time, There was a big problem, and maybe he would be implicated because he happened to be working here.

   "That's the truth. He probably did it so secretly because he didn't want others to know about it..."

   Gu Mo nodded and said, agreeing with the reason given by Toujiro.

Because this statement is also plausible. Since it is a secret that Viper has tried so hard to hide, it is naturally not suitable for too many people to know... These soldiers help to find the secret door is the limit. If you let them know more clearly, Not a good thing.

  Hide Chiyo thought for a while, and nodded, she felt that since that was the case, then there was no need to trouble her old father.

Anyway, although the demonic energy inside is mixed, there is no strong individual. She can solve it by herself with a little time... Besides, even if there is a danger, there are problems that she can't handle, so with a group of ordinary people Does it really help people when they go in?

   The more people there are, the more cumbersome it is. That is the reason.

   "Then the three of us will go in." Gu Mo raised his fist to his mouth, coughed lightly, and said so.

Tojiro's face changed slightly again, he showed an embarrassed but polite smile, tried his best to give a very simple and honest smile, and touched the back of his head: "Why don't I go, I'll take them outside to clean up the other things on the mountain. The monster will be fine...I can't help you anyway."

   He said this just to get himself out.

The secret inside is so important that the three Daoists also deliberately built a mansion to hide it, so it is not suitable for outsiders to know... Not only did he say that the soldiers could not go in, he also did not intend to be so fatal, and if the group of soldiers were all Instead of going in, he went in instead...

   He is an outsider, isn't this more conspicuous!

   is just such a statement, does it seem that he is shrinking back and seems to be afraid of death? Monkey was worried and felt that he was really unlucky.

   However, Gu Mo nodded very cheerfully, as if he was not dissatisfied at all—

   "Okay! I'll leave the outside to you, Axiu and I can go in by ourselves."

  Hide Chiyo is the real thigh. Even in the game, the monkey has always been an NPC who leads out tasks and plots. Gu Mo didn't count on him.

  …

  …

   After a while.

   Walking along the corridor behind the wall, on the narrow artificially excavated road, Gu Mo and the black-haired girl walked quietly in the area illuminated by the fire, and he was very careful to pay attention to his feet. The further forward the artificial traces are, the rougher they become, and eventually they disappear.

The inside of the mountain is originally a hollow belly, and there is a huge natural cave. The artificially excavated passage is just a road that can be connected to the inner space of the mountain from the mansion. The rest is the magic of nature... …

   After all, it is impossible for Saito Dozo himself to hollow out, the amount of work is unimaginable.

  Gu Mo held a torch, and he could vaguely see the winding rock steps ahead. They descended along the stone wall and sank into the darkness. On the road I walked on, there was a thick mountain on one side, and the abyss on the other side, and natural stalactites, large or small, hung upside down.

  Cold, damp, dim.

  The lighting range of the torches is limited after all, and the shadows drag in a strange way under the firelight, as if a monster with claws and claws lurks in the darkness, the shadows are so profuse, and the atmosphere is unconsciously creepy, which makes people feel a little hairy.

   Maybe it’s because there is no longer the kind of atmosphere of group reclamation and the noisy and lively atmosphere of the voice channel?

Gu Mo thought about it, no longer followed by a large group of people behind him. Hearing their heavy footsteps, the noise of armor and weapons colliding and rubbing, naturally no one has the buff bonus that is more courageous...Axiu is very good , is too quiet.

   She basically doesn't make any sound. This "no sound" refers to all actions, even walking without any movement——

  If he hadn't been able to see her, Gu Mo couldn't help but have an illusion, suspecting that he was actually walking in such a ghost place by himself... um, and a big fox.

   Steps were brisk, and even in this dangerous terrain, the black-haired girl suddenly stopped. She took the longbow from her back, drew the bow and arrow, and shot it straight out. The whole process is very fast, it seems that aiming is not necessary, and the past is simply omitted.

The sound of    roaring came, followed by the muffled sound of heavy objects hitting the ground.

On the upside-down stalactite above the head in front of him, a five- or six-meter-long snake suddenly fell. The upper body was also a woman with long hair and a wet body. The arrow accurately pierced its forehead, and the fatal blow that penetrated it had already captured her. took its life.

It's just that although it was fatally wounded, the hundred-legged worm is dead but not stiff. Its powerful vitality makes its heavy and huge body dance wildly in place, and its tail smashes heavily on the ground or on the stone pillar next to it, making a dull sound. Amazing strength.

   just jumped around like this for a while, and then gradually disappeared.

   The black-haired girl Shi Shiran walked past the corpse without even looking at it. For her, this was just an ordinary episode. Gu Mo also followed closely, watching the blood bar of the Nutty girl cleared and no longer displayed, but there was no light gathering, obviously nothing exploded, and of course he wouldn't stay too much.

This is the case all the way, because the road is rough and winding, and the twists and turns are extremely tortuous, and there is a cliff on one side. A slight accident is another story. Therefore, Gu Mo was not able to grab the head. Knowing this There is no room for himself to display, naturally he will not ask Xiuchiyo to give himself the opportunity to fight.

   In this case, the efficiency of propulsion becomes extremely high.

No matter if it's the **** girl coiled on the stalactite above, or the ghost hidden in the eternal world, and whether Gu Mo discovers something or doesn't notice it, Axiu can always locate them accurately and easily. Kill it.

   The momentum is like a broken bamboo along the way, as if there are no obstacles.

   "Axiu, look there, there is a shrine there... it should be built here by your father."

   After walking downhill with a dangerous slope, Gu Mo found that he was finally able to see the scene below, and it seemed that they were approaching the bottom. Some strange radiance was flickering, faintly illuminating the entire underground space, it was the radiance of a faint golden yellow essence.

   I don't know why, but there seem to be many scattered spiritual stones scattered all over the place. These crystals containing strange energy are of different sizes, and the blooming glow is the main light source of the underground space.

  A small river criss-crosses, and countless branches spread out like a cobweb...

But it is not groundwater, but a green and viscous liquid, with bubbles constantly bubbling on the surface, exuding a green aura that can be seen with the naked eye. The visual effect alone makes people feel full of corrosiveness. What do you think of? chemical reagents.

   It should be that the venom of the God of Yadao has formed this small underground river for many years. The venom of that giant snake is also part of the protection of this place. Gu Mo is well aware of this. On the river where the venom converges, there are traces of buildings again, and the trestle bridges are connected to form roads, so that there is no way to go.

   At the end of the road, there is a building hidden behind a cluster of stalactites, with torii gates, access roads, and ropes... It is actually a shrine built in the underground space of this mountain, which does not see the sun.

  Hide Chiyo retracted her gaze, nodded lightly, and hummed, she also thought that was the case, because her eyesight was better, not only being able to see outlines, but also a lot of details.

This shrine looks very new. It is not an ancient site left over from the past. It should have been built in the past two years. Perhaps it is the same period of construction as the gorgeous mansion above. Of course, it can only be It's my father's handwriting.

  What is the hidden thing, seems to have the answer...

   This kind of strong spiritual stone power fluctuations...

Her gaze retracted from the messy golden yellow crystal fragments of various sizes scattered all over the ground, and looked at the direction of the shrine again, where there was an extremely strong and mixed demon energy, a large number of demons gathered there, and a strong Bloody smell.

  …………

   "Three Dao, they are here, right above..."

   "Well, I see."

   In the secret passage, Saito Michizō listened to the report of his most trusted cronies, and raised his hand slightly, his expression a little complicated. His test is coming, so his mood is a bit contradictory. Although he hates the guy who kidnapped his precious daughter very much, he doesn't want the other party to fail this test.

   is not a test of combat power, ghosts are never the point.

   The point is that all the spiritual stones he has collected over the years are placed on it, the amount of which is unimaginable for ordinary people.

   "Boy, don't let me down..." Muttering to himself, Saito Dosan sighed, then turned to look at the black-haired girl beside him. "Yilong, you also have a good look, just like Oda Nobunaga, I have consulted your opinion, and now this kid is no exception."

   Long black hair, tear moles at the corners of his eyes, clear rose-red eyes, as beautiful as rubies...

   A girl who is exactly the same as Hide Chiyo.

   She nodded flatly and lowered her eyes: "Okay, sir."
