Fairy cage

The grotesque undead creatures gathered into waves and squirmed towards the gathering place of the Taoist disciples.

Its speed was not slow. In just three or four days, it approached within a hundred miles of the bunker.

Yu Lie and other Taoist disciples had long been wary of the changes in the ferocious Dragon Court world, so when the first strange undead creature entered within a hundred miles of the bunker, they were discovered.

It's just that they were not taken seriously by the Taoist disciples. Some Taoist disciples even felt that they had too much to do and formed a group to go hunting, trying to turn the monsters that came over into them into Taoist cultivation materials.

It is a pity that the results of these Taoist disciples are basically not very good. They are dead and disabled, and all of them return to the bunker with a dejected look.

They also brought first-hand news to Yu Lie and others, making these undead monsters appear in the eyes of all Taoist disciples.

This day.

The lobby was noisy, and people were talking: "What, those mud-like guys are suspected of being seventh-grade monsters?"

After Yu Lie received the news, he also walked out of the room. He also brought with him the armored soul-holding women. Both of them were well dressed and looked like they were ready to leave the bunker at any time.

Yu Lie was not the only one who was like this. When he met several acquaintances, he found that the other party was the same.

For example, Deng Luogu, who was drawing the talisman, huddled up in a black robe. If he hadn't taken the initiative to say hello, the rest of the team wouldn't have been able to spot him.

This person not only covered his face, but also used breath-holding charms on his body, keeping a very low profile.

As for why the other party was dressed like this, Yu Lie walked up to the other party and chatted with Deng Luogu for a few words. The man took the initiative to say:

"Brother Yu, judging from the current situation, there may be a big trouble. You and I are both craftsmen, and we have some wealth. When trouble occurs, the most dangerous thing will probably not be the monsters outside, but the monsters in the scene. people!

You and I have to be careful, lest we be slaughtered as fat sheep. "

Deng Luogu said these words very carefully. He not only said it through the way of transmitting notes, but also looked left and right while speaking, wary of his surroundings.

What the other party said was reasonable, and Yu Lie nodded immediately: "Thank you, Brother Deng!"

After Yu Lie pondered for a while, he continued the other party's words and spoke again:

"Since you are worried about this, why not take advantage of the trouble before it happens and get together between you and me so that we can take care of each other?"

When Deng Luogu heard this, he clapped his hands and shouted in a low voice: "It's exactly what Brother Yu said, Deng has this plan!"

After waiting for a while, Deng Luogu suddenly pulled out another Taoist priest from the crowd and introduced him:

"This man is also a craftsman, and he is a person in the art of weapons. He has been helping people repair blood vessels in the bunker recently, and he has a good reputation. Now that you and I are together, we can say that we have completed the three major skills of alchemy, weaponry, and cultivation. Just right!"

Yu Lie greeted the other party. He was somewhat familiar with this man of talent, but he had never had a close relationship with him. He only remembered that his surname was Liu.

After the weapon disciple named Liu returned the gift to Yu Lie, he lowered his voice and discussed with the two of them in detail.

After some pleasantries, the remaining three finally decided on the idea of ​​teaming up, and someone immediately suggested:

"Now that we have agreed, the three of us will go to the ghosts and gods and ask them to be witnesses!"

With ghosts and gods as witnesses, by signing a dragon energy contract, the three of them can trust each other and have peace of mind. This is also the first thing that Taoist disciples must do when they work together.

But when the three of them walked together to the place where the ghost and god named Du were, they discovered that they were not the only ones in the bunker who had this idea. There was already a long queue in front of the ghost and god's room, all in twos and threes. They come in groups of three and five, and they also come to work together.

This situation only made the three of them frown slightly and decided to wait patiently.

But after a while, when the team remained motionless, not to mention Yu Lie and others, the Taoist disciples at the front also became restless.

A group of people blocked the door of Guishen's room, staring into the room with their eyes wide open, but there was no sound of the ghost's message coming from inside.

"It shouldn't be. According to the past rules, the ghosts and gods should have called me in at this time!"

"Brother Zhou, there was something wrong when you met with the Taoist Master yesterday."

"Nothing was different yesterday."

Discussions appeared in everyone's mouth.

The people queuing up attracted the attention of the other Taoist disciples in the lobby. Many Taoist disciples who had no intention of joining a group or who had already joined a group also came over to discuss with the others.

There was chaos in the lobby, and the bustling situation lasted for half an hour. More and more people gathered in front of the ghost room.

Everyone felt something was wrong. After a while of noise, someone finally couldn't help it and shouted:

"Is Master Du in the room?", "I dare to ask, Master, why haven't you opened the door today?"

After these shouting chaos, they gradually formed a chorus of shouts:

"Respectfully invite Taoist Master Du, see you when you go out!"

The shouts shook the whole hall. The Taoist disciples were standing or walking, all looking at the door of the ghost and god's room. Taoist disciples kept coming from other places.

After shouting for more than ten times, everyone's minds were in suspense, and they determined what happened in the bunker. Some Taoist disciples even considered whether to offend or not and rushed in.

Fortunately, at this moment, the voice of the ghost named Du finally came from the door.

Buzz!

A golden light flashed, and a shadow emerged from the door. The ghost surnamed Du faced everyone with the appearance of a Taoist, yawned and said:

"What's the point of calling Pindao?"

Seeing the ghost named Du coming out, many Taoist disciples relaxed and immediately asked questions.

But who would have thought that after the ghost surnamed Du yawned, he waved his hands to everyone: "Why are you all still standing there in such a daze? Why don't you hurry up and escape?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Taoist disciples at the scene looked surprised and the noise stopped abruptly.

Pairs of eyes stared at the ghost and god named Du, hoping to get an explanation from the other party.

As a result, the phantom of the ghost named Du was suspended in mid-air. He pinched his fingers and calculated: "This assessment lasted for about a year. Now that more than half a year has passed, there are only a few months left, and at most no more than three months. In a short time, Then the assessment will be over in just one month, or maybe even ten days."

The other party paused and then said in a sarcastic voice: "Do you think that you can stay in our world until the end of the assessment and tide over the difficulties?"

boom!

Such an explanation made the quiet Taoist disciples start to clamor again. Among them, Yu Lie could not help but whisper to Deng Luogu beside him, asking each other if the other knew more.

A Taoist disciple seized the opportunity and asked anxiously: "Do you take what the Taoist Master said seriously? The assessment is about to end? Is there any new arrangement in the Taoist Palace?"

The ghost surnamed Du just turned his face towards that person and ignored him. He said with a sneer:

"Everyone, I have been waiting to protect you for a long time. I have been at ease for such a long time. Even a pig should have adapted to this world.

From now on, you will find your own way to survive in this world. The assessment has now officially begun. "

As soon as he finished speaking, the ghost named Du turned around, as if he was about to retract into the door.

But the other party's body froze again, and with the magic spell in his hand, a golden talisman flew out from the door behind him and floated in the center of the lobby.

Just listen to the ghost named Du explain loudly:

"According to the decree of Dao Palace, all those who have concluded a contract during this assessment will be revoked.

Everyone, please accept your destiny and just live! "

Buzz!

Rays of golden light immediately flew out of the golden talisman and penetrated into the spiritual platform of Yu Lie and others.

These golden lights are all dragon energy, and the news contained in them is clearly the contract signed by the Taoist disciples with the ghosts and gods as witnesses.

And he clearly informed everyone that the contract was invalidated, and everyone would no longer be restrained by others. This world was in this world. Just save your own life and pass the test.

"How, how can this be?"

This move, compared to what the ghost surnamed Du said just now, caused an uproar among the Taoist disciples.

Yu Lie also looked startled, and immediately thought: "The abolition of the contract means that we no longer need to be afraid of Taoism, but can attack each other and use whatever means necessary?"

Originally, because they were in an alien world and lacked the suppression of dragon energy, the Taoist disciples were quite distrustful and found it difficult to cooperate. They relied entirely on the control of ghosts and gods and the dragon energy contract to maintain stability.

Now that the dragon energy contract is removed, logically speaking, even if someone kills someone on the spot, there will be no punishment at all.

Taoist disciples like Yu Lie, who had expressions of pure surprise, accounted for the vast majority.

In fact, there are still a small number of Taoist disciples who looked as if they were mourning for their heirs after hearing this. They were quite dejected.

Their eyes were all anxiously looking at one or several Taoist disciples beside them.

Because these gloomy-looking Taoist disciples had already signed partnership contracts with other Taoist disciples in advance and planned to form a group to pass the assessment.

And for more than half a year, these people thought that the group was strong, so they neglected their own practice, and even became full-time auxiliary Taoist disciples in the group, refining elixirs, drawing talismans for others, and so on.

What they hope is that they can rely on a clear division of labor and help each other to pass the assessment together. As a result, a "cancellation order" from the Taoist Palace has demolished the biggest cornerstone of the team's existence.

A Taoist disciple noticed the distrustful gaze of his companion and immediately made a promise: "Don't worry, even if there is no contract, I will definitely act in accordance with the contract and protect you!"

Some people also asked anxiously: "Brother Dao, does the contract between you and me... still count?"

Bursts of discussion resounded in the field, some had firm eyes, and some had twinkling eyes. Fortunately, because the ghosts and gods were still present, the news of the abolition of the contract came suddenly, and both parties seemed to be getting along well.

But until everyone came to their senses and looked at the ghost named Du again, he was still sitting cross-legged under the golden urn, closing his eyes and mouth, and no longer said a word.

Even if a Taoist person saluted the other party and shouted repeatedly, the other party still did not say a word.

There was even a sudden popping sound in the lobby and a loud scream!

A blade emerged from a Taoist disciple's chest and penetrated the left side of his heart. Someone actually took action on the spot to avenge his grudges.

In an instant, the Taoist disciples who were crowded together suddenly changed their colors, bursts of spiritual light emerged from their bodies, and they all retreated to places where there were fewer people.

In the past six months, among the hundreds of Taoist disciples at the scene, there have been many cooperation and transactions, and many deep hatreds and grudges have been formed!

But even so, the ghost named Du sitting cross-legged in mid-air in the lobby was still there, without even opening his eyes.

Yu Lie hid in a corner of the lobby under the protection of his soul-guarding girl, and the other Taoist disciples surnamed Deng Luogu and Liu also followed.

After avoiding the most chaotic place, the three calmed down and immediately looked at each other.

The ghosts and gods had canceled the old contract in person, so the three of them had no chance of getting a new partnership contract. This made them look at each other with fear in their eyes.

Among them, Deng Luogu bit the bullet and suggested: "Two fellow Taoists, this place is dangerous. Why don't we leave here together first and then make other plans?"

"Yes." Yu Lie and the other Taoist disciple nodded immediately.

The next moment, all three of them moved quickly and hurriedly fled outside the bunker.

As craftsmen who have mastered one of the three major skills, their respective financial resources are not bad, and at least they have the means to escape.

With just a few cups of tea, Yu Lie and the others were able to walk out of the Chaos Bunker completely, and they also got rid of the strange Taoist disciples who were targeting them either by coincidence or on purpose, and finally settled in an uninhabited valley.

As soon as he landed.

Yu Lie took out the medicinal powder used to cover his traces and quickly scattered it in the valley. Deng Luogu took out the hidden charms and hurriedly posted them around. The Taoist disciple named Liu took out a stone-cutting tool and A cave was quickly dug into the mountain wall.

After the three of them joined forces, in just a dozen breaths, the valley here returned to silence. Their figures disappeared, as if no one had been there at all, and the scene just now was just an illusion.

The three people sat down in the cave, including Yu Lie, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The weapon-refining Taoist disciple took out a fluorescent stone and placed it in the middle of the three people. The not very bright fluorescent light reflected on their faces, making all three of them look gloomy.

In the silence, Deng Luogu broke the embarrassment, patted his thigh and said happily:

"No wonder a few days ago, Deng wanted to go to the ghost and god with others to testify, but the ghost and god directly rejected us because the content of the contract had nothing to do with the assessment.

At that time, I still regretted that I could not take advantage of the assessment to make a lot of money. Now it seems that if he signs a contract that the money will be paid after the assessment is over, Pindao will lose all his money! "

Many Taoist disciples in the bunker tried to borrow money empty-handed because of their difficult situation. Yu Lie had met many such people, and the promises they made were alluring, which could be regarded as loan sharks, which made Yu Lie quite excited.

The result is a pity, as Deng Luogu said, ghosts and gods will not guarantee the contents of the contract other than the assessment.

Now that Yu Lie heard Deng Luogu's reminder, he suddenly understood:

"It seems that the Dao Palace has made arrangements for this event as soon as the self-qualification assessment began.

In this case, are those undead monsters also arranged by the Taoist Palace? "
