He favored his concubine and I cut off my wealth. Everyone in the mansion was in a panic.

Chapter 279 The fifth underground palace, the Fusang clan appears

Everyone looked at each other, and then hid in the pit under the mountain valley, hiding their bodies and holding their breath.

Soon, the sound of running and armor approached one after another, and there was also a deliberately suppressed conversation: "How come a Gu Master was suddenly killed? There hasn't been such a vicious incident in Southern Xinjiang for many years?"

"That's right, we have to gather us in the middle of the night. When we catch that ignorant guy, we must throw him to the Wan Gu Cave to vent our hatred!"

The conversation and running sounds soon disappeared, and the mountain valley returned to its previous silence.

Li Yu roughly estimated the number of people based on the footsteps, about two hundred people.

Everyone got up from the pit and saw a bright fire not far away. It was the village that Shen Qing had just visited during the day.

There is no doubt that the Gu stone that the witch mentioned at the end worked, attracting a large number of Southern Xinjiang soldiers.

Because many villagers had seen Shen Qing's appearance during the day, although he was in disguise, he couldn't hide his belly anyway. In addition, this place was too close to the village, so the group decided to change positions immediately.

Fu Yi picked up Shen Qing skillfully and walked towards the farthest east from here. The others quickly followed, but disappeared in the thick night in an instant.

The group had already inquired during the day. Although Fusang City is the main city of Southern Xinjiang, it actually occupies less than one-fifth of the area of ​​Southern Xinjiang. The villages on all sides are scattered, so there are many places for everyone to hide.

Somewhere in the southeast of Southern Xinjiang, Shen Qing and his group found a dilapidated and leaky house. Although it was a bit simple, it was enough for the night.

After a day of tossing and turning, they ate cold and hard dry food, so Rong Heng prepared to secretly catch some fish in the sea in the east to eat, and Yun Xiaoxiao suggested that they could go to the nearby area to see if there were any non-toxic beasts and game.

The master and the apprentice each took three secret guards and set off. Li Yu took two secret guards to find firewood and make a fire, in preparation for what would happen after Rong Heng and his apprentice came back.

Fu Yi made a simple bed for Shen Qing and let her take a nap on it.

Shen Qing agreed and fell asleep soon.

She was pregnant, and after such a toss, her body really couldn't stand it. However, after learning that Lu Yan's life was safe, Shen Qing was temporarily relieved, so she fell asleep quickly.

She covered Shen Qing with the clothes of the southern Xinjiang people that Yun Xiaoxiao had just taken off, and took a piece of clean cloth dipped in clean water to moisten Shen Qing's already dry lips.

Xie Zhaohua leaned aside and watched Fu Yi toss one thing after another until she served Shen Qing clean and refreshed, and finally had some free time.

An hour later, Rong Heng and his party came back with more than a dozen processed fat fish, and Li Yu had already made a fire.

Rong Heng had just skewered the fish with sticks, and Yun Xiaoxiao and his party also returned with two dead pheasants.

As for mushrooms and wild fruits, there were poisonous mushrooms and fruits everywhere in southern Xinjiang. Yun Xiaoxiao looked around but couldn't find any edible ones, so she had to give up.

After asking the secret guards to go out and deal with the two pheasants, Yun Xiaoxiao began to grill the fish with Rong Heng, and sprinkled several spices on the way.

Xie Zhaohua joined the team skillfully, "You are well prepared."

Yun Xiaoxiao smiled, "I walk outside a lot, so these are the first things I prepare before going out every time."

After the fish was grilled, Yun Xiaoxiao woke up Shen Qing and asked her to eat first.

Shen Qing took it, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she didn't sleep anymore, and simply went to the fire with everyone to eat fish.

Speaking of which, this kind of experience was the first time Shen Qing had lived for almost seventeen years.

Yun Xiaoxiao sprinkled spices and teased, "Cousin, you haven't experienced this scene yet, right? Isn't it very special?"

Shen Qing elegantly removed a fish bone and responded softly, "Indeed, but I hope that the next time I experience it, it won't be so urgent."

Yun Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing out loud, "When Lu Yan is rescued and returned to Shengjing, and you have a baby, I will take you around, how about it?"

Shen Qing's eyes were shining with fragments of light, "Okay, and take Ayin with you. She has told me that she wants to go out for a walk."

Yun Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded, and stuffed another chicken leg into Shen Qing's hand, "Eat more, don't starve the little guy in your stomach."

...

The next morning, Shen Qing just opened his eyes and heard the dark guard in charge of night watch come to report that a large number of southern Xinjiang soldiers were chasing this side. Judging from the posture, there were at least 500 people.

Without further ado, Fu Yi and his party picked up Shen Qing and started a new escape. When they walked out of the house, they found that it was still dark. The soldiers from Southern Xinjiang had obviously been looking for them all night.

It was really not a good idea to keep escaping like this. The day was about to dawn. Although there were many hiding places in Southern Xinjiang, it was only a small place after all. So after thinking about it, Shen Qing and his party decided to hide in the dense forest that Xie Zhaohua had explored before.

Although there were many poisonous insects in it, they had Rong Heng and Yun Xiaoxiao, and Tuanzi to support them. Even if they encountered poisonous insects, they would not be unable to resist.

As Xie Zhaohua expected, this dense forest was much more dangerous than the one they encountered when they came. They just entered and encountered groups of poisonous ants and bees. The toxins on each of them were fatal. Fortunately, everyone had high martial arts skills, and Rong Heng and his apprentice had strong drugs to cover them, so they could escape successfully.

After taking a breath, Yun Xiaoxiao asked in confusion: "Master, where did you get this poison? Why haven't I seen it before?"

"When I was looking for you before, I accidentally met someone who was looking for revenge on me, so I killed him and robbed him."

Rong Heng answered easily, and those who didn't know him would think he was a robber who specialized in killing and robbing.

Yun Xiaoxiao frowned, "Did you provoke an enemy again?"

With a slightly disgusted tone, she obviously felt that it would be more dangerous for her to go out alone in the future. After all, this kind of situation happened a lot before. Since she couldn't find Rong Heng, the culprit, she would take her easy-to-control disciple as the culprit.

Rong Heng hurriedly explained: "No, no, I really didn't cause any trouble this time. It was Du Yun's disciple, what was his name... By the way, Yun Cheng, I heard that he was also an elder of the Thousand Poison Sect. I killed him, which can be regarded as solving a potential hidden danger for Shen Qing girl."

Hearing Rong Heng say this, Yun Xiaoxiao didn't have any objections.

The group had just walked a short distance when they saw a group of poisonous snakes on the ground approaching them quickly. Fortunately, everyone had Qinggong skills, but it still took a lot of time to get rid of those poisonous snakes.

After several twists and turns, everyone gradually lost their way.

At this moment, Tuanzi, who had been lying safely in Shen Qing's arms, suddenly opened his eyes, and his golden eyes stared at the deepest part of the dense forest.

Shen Qing gently stroked its hair, and Tuanzi's thoughts emerged from his mind-

I felt a very familiar breath.

Shen Qing conveyed his thoughts-

Is it dangerous?

Tuanzi shook his head, not knowing whether there was no danger or those dangers could not hurt it at all.

Seeing this, Shen Qing suggested to everyone to continue to go deeper. Everyone was a little surprised. The current position was enough to avoid the pursuit of the soldiers from Southern Xinjiang. Going deeper, they might encounter other dangers.

But Shen Qing had already said it, so they all agreed.

Shen Qing was thoughtful and steady, and they all knew this.

Following the direction pointed by Tuanzi, everyone began to go deeper into the dense forest. As they gradually approached the place pointed by Tuanzi, there were more and more poisonous insects in the forest. From the poisonous insects infected with poisons at the beginning, to the insect poisons later, and finally the five poisonous poisons, the dangers were increasing layer by layer, but with Tuanzi, all of this was nothing to be afraid of.

Just when everyone had walked for two hours, the trees in the dense forest gradually became shorter, the sun continued to shine in, and the scenery in front of the dense forest became more and more open.

Behind the dense forest was a small valley with lush vegetation and blooming flowers, which was completely different from the dangers just now.

However, everyone knew that there were too many strange things in the southern border, so the more beautiful the place, the more vigilant it was.

According to the previous distribution, Li Yu, Xie Zhaohua, Fu Yi and Rong Heng took several secret guards to inquire about the situation in several directions, while Shen Qing and Yun Xiaoxiao stayed where they were and waited for news.

About a quarter of an hour later, the four of them came back with secret guards one after another, and also brought back news that there was no danger and the specific situation of the valley.

The valley is located in the southwest of Southern Xinjiang. On one side is a deep cliff that is so deep that you can't see the bottom at a glance. It is also the southernmost border of Southern Xinjiang. On the other side is the dense forest they passed by when they came.

The hills around the valley are not high, only slightly higher than the tall trees in the dense forest. Looking down from the top of the mountain, the situation inside is also in full view -

There is only one underground palace.

It is built exactly the same as the other four underground palaces they discovered yesterday.

It is also the fifth underground palace in Southern Xinjiang.

Hearing the word "underground palace", Shen Qing couldn't help but frown slightly. Her intuition told her that there must be a very close connection between these underground palaces, and it is very likely that they are related to the entire Southern Xinjiang.

Seeing that everyone did not move for a long time, Tuanzi made an urgent meow again, as if there was something in the valley that attracted it.

According to everyone's inquiries, there is nothing in the valley except that underground palace... In other words, Tuanzi may know the secret of the underground palace.

Without further hesitation, Shen Qing held Tuanzi and walked towards the valley. The soft sunlight shone on his body, warm and beautiful, and the fragrance of flowers in the air kept drilling into his nose, soothing and pleasant.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the valley, Shen Qing saw the underground palace that everyone talked about at a glance-

There are not many construction parts on the ground, only the size of a pavilion in the Jing'an Palace, and the shape is a bit like a memorial archway, but it is more three-dimensional.

In addition to the entrance that can be passed by three people side by side, the most eye-catching thing about the underground palace is the totem above: the five poisons are arranged in the order of scorpion, snake, centipede, golden toad, and gecko, indicating the status of the five poisons in southern Xinjiang.

Scorpion is the first of the five poisons.

And now, the snake is the first of the five poisons in southern Xinjiang. Among them, the red-clothed woman in Shen Qing's dream, that is, the high priest of southern Xinjiang, must have contributed greatly.

The next moment, just as Shen Qing was about to step into the valley, he saw two young men walking out from the other side of the underground palace, and said in a cold voice: "Who are you? How dare you trespass into the residence of my Fusang clan?"
