Although Bai Qiang is more than forty years old, but the body is strong and does not show the slightest old age.
He seemed to be very familiar with the mountains near this Jiangping village, and walked on the mountain road, walking as fast as he could, without the slightest halt.
However, he seemed to be more introverted, not a lot of words, unless Zhao Rui and others asked, he did not take the initiative to speak.
The Ten Thousand Bone Cave was deep in the mountains, and Zhao Rui followed Bai Qiang, over two large mountains, and approached their destination.
It was a semi-circular peak, with thorns and trees everywhere on the mountain.
Zhao Rui and Ding Ling and the others, standing at the foot of the mountain, looked upward.
It was already late at night, and the surrounding silence was a bit eerie.
Now is the spring, according to reason, should be a variety of birds and insects singing a good time.
However, the whole mountain peak, but even birds and insects can not hear, only the night wind sweeping through the treetops, brought up the rustling sound.
Zhao Rui's right hand gently touched his left arm, the night wind blew to the body, seems a little cold.
He suddenly had a feeling that this dark hill at night was like a huge tomb, except for the trees that filled the mountain, standing quietly erect, basically could not see any living thing!
"I can only send you this far." Bai Qiang, who had been speaking passively, took the unprecedented initiative to speak, "The entrance to the Ten Thousand Bone Grotto is on the halfway point of this mountain, you guys just walk straight, it's very easy to find."
Ding Ling stood on a boulder, stood on tiptoe and looked out over the mountainside, then turned her head to Bai Qiang and said, "It's enough that you sent it here. Thank you for leading us here."
Finished speaking. Went up and shook hands with him.
"You're welcome." Bai Qiang looked around at the three of them and looked very, very serious, "I'll give you one last piece of advice, it's best not to enter the Ten Thousand Bone Grotto! There is hell on earth, the horror inside, far beyond your imagination! If you enter, there is absolutely no return!"
"Oh? Have you been inside before?" Zhao Rui keenly perceived that his words had inadvertently revealed some other information. So asked a question.
Bai Qiang looked like he recalled something terrible, and a fearful expression flashed across his face instantly.
Soon, he returned to normal, pursed his lips, sullen face, without saying a word, turned away and soon disappeared in the dense forest.
"This time. We can only rely on ourselves." Zhao Rui shrugged his shoulders and said.
Master Kurenai smiled faintly and did not make a sound, leading the way towards the mountainside, Ding Ling and Zhao Rui followed in a hurry.
After climbing all the way up, the three finally arrived at the halfway point of the mountain.
There was a smooth rock wall halfway up the mountain. A huge stone cave with a diameter of seven or eight meters is on top of this rock wall.
Zhao Rui stood at the entrance to the cave. Looked inside, even with his eyesight that far exceeds that of ordinary people, but also can not know this deep dark stone cave, where the end in the end. With a thick demonic cold wind, from inside the stone cave rushed out, emitting a whimpering sound, like a ghost crying wolf. One's spine is chilled.
"Ugh! There are words carved here!" Ding Ling seems to have found something, pointing to a rock wall on the right side of the cave entrance, shouted.
Zhao Rui went over to take a look, only to see eight large words engraved on it:
"Ten thousand bones cave, no mortal should enter."
These eight words, strong and powerful, a strong momentum. With a strong sense of warning. Not ordinary people can write out.
Below the eight words, there are also engraved with a few lines of small letters. The style is old, probably meaning: More than a thousand years ago, the great virtuous Dharma monk, defeated here for many years, the ferocious and powerful demon creature - drought demon, and sealed it in the ten thousand bones grotto.
Inside the grotto, there are many dangers, and the drought demon is even more terrifying, so mortals should not enter the grotto, otherwise they will be in trouble!
It is indeed a drought demon!
Zhao Rui looked slightly moved, he was in the village chief's home, already guessed, ten thousand bones in the cave, sealed may be this powerful demon, now read the stone wall writing, but also confirmed.
The dry drought is a kind of zombie, but far from ordinary zombies can be compared, is a very high level zombie, must absorb the essence of up to thousands of years, before it can take shape.
It has a hideous appearance, green face and fangs, has almost become a demon, can fly above the nine heavens, can dive into the 10,000 meters under the sea, where it comes to, thousands of miles of bare ground, the earth dried up, lakes dried up, the water source is cut off drought drought is bloodthirsty, eat the human heart, extremely scary.
It is said that in ancient times, when the Yellow Emperor and the great demon king Chi You were fighting in the Central Plains, in order to win the war, they deliberately asked the Drought Goddess for help and borrowed the Drought Army.
These thousands of drought demons greatly enhanced the strength of the Yellow Emperor and played a huge role in the war, becoming one of the two most powerful divine armies under the Yellow Emperor.
However, because the dry demons were cruel and bloodthirsty, and often caused a hundred-year drought, causing great harm to the people.
After the Great War, they were gradually rejected by all the tribes and began to be sealed away, eventually disappearing into legend.
Unexpectedly, in this ten thousand bones grotto, there is such a terrifying existence sealed!
Zhao Rui's expression became somewhat grave, and Master Kurenai was also silent, obviously knowing the greatness of this dry drought.
It was Ding Ling who did not know the origin and fearfulness of the drought demon and did not feel any pressure, looking as usual.
Master Kurong pondered for a little while, as if he had made some decision, and said to Zhao Rui and Ding Ling, "Two monks, you can wait for me outside this grotto."
"Ah? Why?" Ding Ling felt a little surprised, "Master Kurenai, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to go in alone, what dangers are hidden in this grotto, no one can predict. It's better for us to go in with you, in case something happens, we can still take care of it." Master Kurenai said with a faint smile, "Master Ding, there are indeed great dangers in this grotto, far beyond your imagination. That's why I want you to stay here. If you enter with me, I'm afraid you won't be able to help much, and I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you all.
After saying this, Master Kurenai raised two fingers and pointed at the distant rock wall.
Only to see a light golden beam of light, from his fingertips shot out, blasted on the cliff more than two hundred meters away.
"Boom" a loud sound, debris flying, dust flying, the hard rock wall, a huge crater instantly appeared!
A boulder of tens of thousands of pounds also separated from the rock wall and fell down with a bang.
Ding Ling was astonished, she didn't expect that this seemingly skinny 100-year-old monk had such extraordinary strength!
Compared to Master Kurenai, her strength was insignificant!
Just now she actually said she wanted to protect Master Kurenai, what a fool's errand!
Ding Ling's face was burning hot, she felt very embarrassed, at this moment, she heard Master Kurenai continue: "The dry demon in the cave of ten thousand bones, in fact, I was the first person to preside over our Hongfa Temple, the great deity Hongfa divine monk. It was sealed a thousand years ago. In order to seal the drought demon forever, he deliberately founded the Hongfa Temple and made a will that once the drought demon in the Cave of Ten Thousand Bones shows signs of revival, it must be sealed again!
If the drought demon really revived completely, with my strength, I would only have to wait for death.
However, a thousand years ago, the divine monk Hongfa had left behind a magic treasure that was specially designed to seal the drought demon. It was because of this magic treasure that I dared to enter the Cave of Ten Thousand Bones alone and face the drought.
However, you two are only mortals, your power is relatively weak, and you don't have any treasures to defend yourselves, so if you enter the grotto with me, you are only afraid that you will be in bad luck, so it is better to stay outside the grotto."
Ding Ling knew that Master Kurenai's advice was correct and sensible, and staying outside the grotto was indeed the best choice for her and Zhao Rui.
However, after seeing Master Kurenai's power and hearing the legend about the dry drought, she was so curious that it was hard to restrain her curiosity, and she wanted to see what the legendary dry drought looked like!
So, she thought for a moment and said, "Master Kurenai, since you have the magic treasure to deal with the drought demon, the danger factor can be said to be greatly reduced, we follow you and go in to have a look, in fact, it is not a big problem, if we really encounter danger, the big deal is that Zhao Rui and I will retreat again."
Master Kourou glanced at Ding Ling and saw that she looked determined, knowing that there was no way to make her change her mind, so he shook his head helplessly and then turned his gaze to Zhao Rui: "Master Zhao, what about you?"
Zhao Rui originally did not want to move with the two, and when he saw that Master Kurenai wished to separate, he naturally begged for it, so he smiled and said, "In that case, you two go in, and I will wait for you outside. I am too weak, so I will only cause trouble for you guys."
Master Kurenai begged for it and nodded, not objecting.
However, Ding Ling thought that Zhao Rui was timid inside and did not dare to enter the grotto, so he could not help but despise him, so he glanced at him and said coldly: "Since you do not dare to go in, then wait for us outside, do not run around know? Lest we come out, can not find you!"
Zhao Rui pretended not to hear the sarcasm in the words, just smile and nod in agreement.
Finished, Ding Ling and Kulong two people, without looking back towards the grotto, Zhao Rui wait for two people far away, immediately from the Qiankun Ring to take out the underworld spirit mask, put on the face, and then toe in the ground a little, spread the body, flash into the grotto.
