Arriving in front of the sea of ​​clouds, Gu Zheng looked at the only passage. Once they entered, everything would be completely invisible and completely disappear from their perception.

Coupled with the ever-churning clouds and mist, it is like a monster that chooses people to devour, waiting for them to fall into its trap.

 “Let’s go.”

Gu Zheng saw a hint of timidity on Xiaoying's face and said immediately, he didn't expect that this place could affect people's minds. What he didn't expect was that Xiaoying seemed to be a little weak in this area and was actually shaken a little bit.

Hook Xiaoying's little hand and lead her into the passage. Soon their figures were submerged in clouds of white mist.

 Quiet, very quiet.

You can't see clearly even a foot away from this place. Even your own voice is forcibly suppressed ten times, let alone the sound of footsteps. It's like walking in a silent world.

 And it is surrounded by the mountain wall, like a narrow corridor, giving people a dull feeling.

“Xiaoying, don’t worry about being attacked. If my prediction is correct, this place is actually like this on purpose. There won’t be any danger. Moreover, this passage will be very long, so don’t be affected.”

 Gu Zheng slowly and carefully explored the surrounding area. After walking a certain distance, he understood a little bit about the situation here, and then he spoke.

 “I know, there will be no problem.”

Even though he said this, Gu Zheng could clearly feel the slight tension in his hands, and the other party's body seemed to be trembling slightly.

With this unique aura, even if two people are just next to each other, it feels like they are the only one walking.

This feeling of loneliness frightens Xiaoying because she is not used to it.

Gu Zheng naturally knows what Xiaoying is thinking, so under normal circumstances, unless it is an emergency, Gu Zheng will take her outside.

 A warm current flowed into Xiaoying's body along the palm of her hand, dispelling a lot of fear in her heart, and even her pale face became rosy.

　One day later, even if they quickened their pace, they emerged from the long thick fog.

A tall and broad mountain peak appeared in front of them. The entire mountain peak was a black world. The trees were black, the grass was black, and even the flowers and grass on the field were black.

"It's a pity. If the kitten was here, we wouldn't have to work so hard and just let him take us away." Xiaoying took a slight breath and then said.

“Yes, the only shortcoming of this place is that none of us are very good at it, otherwise it would be too easy to leave.” Gu Zheng nodded and agreed with Xiaoying.

To say that Gu Zheng has no way to leave here is definitely a lie. Xiaoying also knows this, so neither of them panicked at all and wandered around here looking for it like an adventure.

 And after they left, they had no idea where the mysterious man went. With this formation,

At first, he wanted to take a look here, but then he met that strange young man. Gu Zheng thought of something in his mind, maybe someone was trapped here.

 And this place is Kun Yu’s territory. Perhaps their people are trapped here. In short, if they find each other, they may be able to understand everything that happened here.

As for the wasted time, he didn't know where the other party was going anyway. If he came in again, he might get stuck here again. He might as well see what the other party was up to.

 After looking around for a while, they unfortunately didn't see anything else. The two people walked forward again. Nothing else happened along the way, and they soon arrived at the bottom of the mountain peak.

"boom"

 A very weak collision sound came from not far ahead.

 Gu Zheng and Xiaoying looked at each other, quickened their pace and walked towards that direction. Accompanied by very regular sounds, they soon arrived at a relatively open place.

At this time, a naked human woodcutter wielding a black ax was sweating profusely and felling a thick tree.

From the many tree stumps remaining next to it, we can see that the other party has cut down a lot, and these trees look the same as the wooden houses built in the village.

With the last angry shout from the other party, the big tree began to tilt to one side.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 institutions

 sound trembling, in this relatively silent deep forest, set off a thunderous sound.

After all this was settled, they stepped forward and approached the woodcutter who was resting over there.

"Hey, what a rare visitor. I haven't seen any outsiders here for a long time. Why are you here after traveling so far?" When the woodcutter saw Gu Zheng and the others, he took the initiative to say hello.

“We are entrusted by others to catch black squirrels.” Xiaoying stepped forward and said to the other party.

“Black squirrel? Are you here from my wife?” The woodcutter looked at Gu Zheng, and then focused his eyes on Xiaoying. The strange look in his eyes made Gu Zheng very strange.

"Yes, it was the elder sister who asked us to come." Xiaoying said sweetly as if she didn't notice.

"That bad old woman actually asked you to come here. Fortunately, you are not ordinary people. If I hadn't killed you and come here to give you a greeting gift, it seems that things are not peaceful here." The woodcutter sat directly on the tree stump and casually said

He took out a small black ball and handed it to Xiaoying.

The crystal clear appearance looked like a glass bead, but Xiaoying's eyes suddenly lit up when she saw it, she stepped forward and said with some joy.

“Uncle, is it really for me?”

"Of course, if you force your way in here from the outside, you will definitely suffer a lot of damage, and you don't have this young man's high level of cultivation. Let me add." The woodcutter said with a smile, and then he took off the white cloth on his palm bit by bit.

A pair of strong palms were revealed, and there were even traces of blood on them.

 Gu Zheng's eyes narrowed, and he even smelled a hint of blood.

 “Thank you, uncle!”

Xiaoying quickly thanked her, took it directly, and swallowed it in one gulp.

As the crystal core was swallowed, Xiaoying's spirit and complexion improved significantly, which was even more of a tonic for her, while Gu Zheng thought that the other party was frightened and became like this.

“Uncle, where is this place? Isn’t it Wuyou Village?” Gu Zheng couldn’t help but be confused and stepped forward to ask.

"If you weren't relying on her, how could you forcefully break the space from the Guixu Formation to come here? Leave quickly. It's not good to stay here for a long time. Be careful with the black beasts above. Forget it, they are too easy for you.

Well, protect this little girl, for her, it is a ferocious beast." The woodcutter said to Gu Zheng with a smile.

Before Gu Zheng could continue to ask questions, the woodcutter, like the others, became insubstantial.

However, despite this, the other party seemed to understand the situation on both sides. He pointed towards the mountain and then pointed down, as if to signal Gu Zheng to leave quickly.

“What did you eat just now?” Gu Zheng and Xiaoying walked up again, and Gu Zheng asked on the way.

“Black crystal is a thing that replenishes soul power and spirit, so it can be effective for us.” Xiaoying answered without thinking.

“You mean to you, the woodcutter is the same kind as you?” Gu Zheng suddenly stopped and asked Xiaoying.

“Yes, everyone here is the same, but the other person looks dumb, I don’t know why, and I don’t know what’s going on with that illusory body.” Xiaoying said matter-of-factly.

 “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Gu Zheng said, dumbfounded, while walking towards the mountain again.

 “You didn’t ask, so I thought you knew.”

Xiaoying's answer made Gu Zheng really speechless. He really didn't distinguish it, and he really thought that the other party was a phantom.

Having only reached halfway up the mountain, Gu Zheng was already aware of the existence of many creatures, such as black rabbits, black birds, and black bugs. It was as if he had arrived in a black time.

“Sir, I feel so terrible about those creatures, as if they can hurt me.” Xiaoying hid behind Gu Zheng, her voice trembling.

"As long as I'm here, there's no way they can hurt you." Gu Zheng thought of what the woodcutter said, maybe he should just restrain them.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　)

A black bird flew down at a very fast speed, its target was Xiaoying below, as if it saw something delicious, but it was far away, and one hand directly grabbed her.

 Gu Zheng felt that the opponent's cultivation level was not very advanced, and was even similar to that of ordinary birds outside, but his speed was much faster.

With a pinch, the little bird turned into a black mist and disappeared into the air, which was a bit strange.

“If you take that creature back, will it hurt the people inside?” Gu Zheng looked around and said with some doubts.

"You purify the other party's anger. As long as the other party leaves here, they will naturally not be aggressive. The woodcutter told me secretly when we left just now." Xiaoying only showed one head in Gu Zheng's eyes.

On the shoulder, he said immediately after hearing the words.

When Gu Zheng heard this, he immediately stepped forward to grab it. A black rabbit was instantly sucked into his hand. Faced with the crazy struggling rabbit, he even opened his mouth and bit his finger, but he didn't feel anything about Gu Zheng.

Another palm gently brushed the other person's body. After half a cup of tea, the originally black rabbit turned white, and Gu Zheng also sensed that the other person was actually a spirit body. In that crazy state

I can't see through it at all.

“Where is this place? It’s really strange?” Gu Zheng was sure that he had entered another place through the so-called Guixu, but he didn’t know the specific place and he had never heard of it.

“I don’t know either, I just feel that this place is as bound as I am in the scroll, just like my home.” Xiaoying told the truth.

“Okay, this little rabbit has been banned by me and will not be in danger. Let’s go find the black squirrel.”

 Half a day later, Gu Zheng and Xiaoying came down from the mountainside again. At this time, on Gu Zheng's shoulders, a white squirrel and a white rabbit were standing on top of them.

 At this time, they are really like pets and cannot pose any threat at all.

　　When they came down, the woodcutter was still looking illusory and was clearing up the tree that he had cut down.

　　Gu Zheng did not disturb the other party and walked back with Xiaoying.

It was another day spent in this narrow passage, but this time Gu Zheng noticed something slightly different. He originally thought it was to delay their time, but he was actually crossing a spatial distance.

 Back here, it happened to be bright and bright, Gu Zheng took Xiaoying and walked directly towards the house of the woman who issued the mission to him.

 When they arrived, they happened to see a woman cleaning up the house.

“Sister, I found the squirrel for you.” Xiaoying wrapped the white squirrel from Gu Zheng’s shoulder and flew towards the woman.

"Hey, I really didn't expect that. I just said casually that you just wanted to stay here longer. It's been a long time since I saw such a beautiful painting soul." When the woman saw the squirrel in Xiaoying's hand, she immediately said apologetically.

.

"It doesn't matter, the young master is with me, it just takes a little time, but if we want to go out, is there any other good way?" Xiaoying put the squirrel in her hand on the table next to her and asked.
