Su Qing immediately opened her eyes and walked over to Zhou Bo with Xiao Zeyu. “Martial Uncle, have you found it?”
Xiao Zeyu held up a torch for Zhou Bo. Zhou Bo pointed at the Crooked Neck
Tree beside him smugly. “Do you see anything different about the tree rings on that tree?”
Xiao Zeyu went over to check it out when he heard what his uncle’s master said. He could see that it was indeed different from a normal tree ring. In fact, this Crooked Neck Tree was planted here by someone.
Among the lush trees, a withered tree stood out.
“This is designed according to the five elements and eight trigrams.”
Zhou Boxing hurriedly looked at Xiao Zeyu and pointed at the tree ring for him
to see.
“Yes, there is indeed something hidden.”
Xiao Zeyu could tell from his uncle’s master’s reminder that he was also proficient in the five elements and eight trigrams. If his uncle master raised his head, he would immediately understand the direction of the entire mechanism.
“If you press this button, a suspension bridge will appear above Five Poison
Valley.”
He confidently pressed a black dot in the center of the Eight Trigrams, which was the switch for the mechanism.
Sure enough, Xiao Zeyu’s judgment was correct. The moment he pressed the button, a loud crack could be heard. A suspension bridge fell from the sky and connected to Five Poison Valley.
-This marvelous mechanism must have been created by Qin Tie, but why did he make this mechanism for the Fifth Ghost?”
Zhou Bo was sure that Qin Tie had made this mechanism, but he did not understand why he had made this mechanism to lock him up. Was it to defend against the Five Ghosts? Examine the origin of this data, deeply intertwined with n0v[lbin★
Or had he already become one of the Five Ghosts?
If it was the latter, it would be very dangerous.
“Let her go over first.”
Su Qing was afraid that there was still a chance on the suspension bridge, so he went over to pull Qin Yuer up. She untied the rope tied to her leg and pushed
her in front.
If Qin Yuer didn’t want to die, she had to lead the way obediently. Qing’er only wanted to go singly, not in pairs.
A tiger came out of the woods and growled threateningly at the intruders.
“Ouch.”
The tiger’s roar shook the sky and earth as if the ground of the valley was trembling.
“Even a beast is disturbing my rest.”
Su Qing saw that it was only a tiger. She shot the flexible sword she had obtained from the fake Qin Tie at the tiger, stabbing it directly in the butt. It was so painful that it cried out and pounced toward Su Qing. Xiao Zeyu’s blade pierced through its paw. This time, the tiger no longer dared to be arrogant.
What kind of person was this? He didn’t give it any face at all! If he stayed any longer, he would be skinned alive. Running for his life was more important. Su Qing’s soft sword was stuck on the tiger’s butt as it dragged its injured foot and ran.
“This is great.”
Zhou Bo’s eyes lit up when he saw the tiger run away. Xiao Zeyu immediately understood what his uncle’s master meant.
Isn’t it better?
Wherever the tiger ran, it would be safe. Tomorrow, it would be safe to follow the bloody palm print.
“Unfortunately, the sword was taken away by the tiger.
Xiao Zeyu felt sorry for Su Qing. That flexible sword was a famous sword. It could cut through iron like mud and was easy to keep. It was just right for Su
Qing.
“I’m fine.”
Su Qing did not mind and went back to sleep. It was as if it was not a treasured sword but an ordinary sword. She was not in a hurry at all.
In the early morning, everything was revived. Birds combed their feathers in the dew and sang happily.
Su Qing opened her eyes on Xiao Zeyu’s shoulder. She had slept on his shoulder the night before. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Xiao Zeyu’s deep eyes. He had obviously been awake for a long time, but he didn’t move because he was afraid of waking her up.
“You’re awake?”
Xiao Zeyu asked Su Qing with a smile. He raised his hand to help her tuck her hair behind her ears. His movements were very gentle. His warm fingers brushed against Su Qing’s smooth skin, causing ripples before reluctantly moving away.
“You didn’t sleep?”
Su Qing nodded. Seeing that Xiao Zeyu’s eyes were a little dark, she asked him in distress.
“I slept for a while.”
Xiao Zeyu replied with a smile. He really didn’t sleep much? How could he dare to sleep peacefully beside Five Poison Valley?
Zhou Bo had been awake for a long time and had already finished practicing a set of Taiji Fist. Seeing that Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu were awake, the old man asked them,
■’Should we start looking for the mechanism immediately, or do we look for it after breakfast?”
