Hua Bushi left a flag of Pili camp disciples at the entrance of the cave to guard him, then gathered everyone to move forward.

This valley is very quiet. A bluestone path winds between the mountains and forests towards the depths of the valley. Everyone walks on the path. After a cup of tea, they turned several turns and passed through several dense woods, but they could not see the distance. A piece of dark gray hanging cornice is exposed among the green branches and leaves.

As we walked closer, we discovered that behind the woods and directly in front of the bluestone road, there stood a rather majestic palace-like building that looked like a temple.

This temple looks very simple and old. It has been built for many years. The stone steps in front are covered with moss. The two black doors are tightly closed. On the forehead are three large pale gold characters: "Amitabha Hall"

The people in the demonic path call themselves "Amitabha Pure Land Sect". Since this temple is called "Amitabha Hall", I guess it must have been built by them [

Li Hu waved two flags, and eighty Pili camp disciples quickly surrounded the hall from both sides. Each raised his musket and aimed at the temple. He himself walked up the stone steps towards the temple gate with his sword in hand.

Liu Yuanhe strode over and saw his uncle coming forward. Yuan Xi did not lag behind and also followed up.

"Clang!" There was a loud noise. Li Hu kicked open the closed black door and three people jumped in at the same time.

There was no sound of fighting from inside the door. After a while, Liu Yuanhe's voice came from the door: "This temple is empty and there is no one."

After hearing this, Hua Bu Shi, Chu Yiyi and others all stepped up the stone steps and walked into the temple.

This hall is really quite large, with more than enough room for a hundred or ten people. The floor is paved with old square bricks. On a stone platform three or four feet high, there is a reclining statue of Maitreya Buddha with a round belly like a ball and a smile on both sides. The plaque on the red painted wooden pillar reads:

A big belly can accommodate everything in the world;

Open your mouth and laugh at the ridiculous people in the world

On the horizontal plaque in the center are written the four golden characters of "Get Great Freedom"

There is an offering table under the Buddha statue, and the remaining incense in the incense burner is still there. There are wooden fish and futons next to it. It looks no different from an ordinary temple. However, although there is a temple, there are no monks. There is not a single demonic disciple in the main hall. It feels a little unusual

"Could it be that the people in the demonic path saw us coming and ran away earlier?" Chu Yiyi said

Hua Bushi pondered for a moment and said: "There is still some residual incense in the incense burner. They should have just left not long ago. The terrain of this valley is complex and there are many dense mountains and dense forests. It is not suitable to act rashly. I think it is better to use this temple as a stronghold first." Disciple, please search around for a while before talking."

Chu Yiyi said: "Young Master's words make sense. I also feel that everything in this valley is weird, so it's better to be careful. This Amitabha Hall is built very solidly, and the surrounding terrain is relatively flat and open, which is perfect for garrisoning."

The more open and flat the place, the more powerful the musket can be brought into full play. Hua Bushi immediately ordered everyone to set up guards on all sides of the temple and sent twenty disciples to divide into five groups and search the valley in different directions to explore the situation.

There are slopes and woods everywhere in this valley. Even if you can't see from a distance, you don't know how big the entire valley is. It's even more unclear where the people in the devil's path are located. Instead of wandering around like flies, it's better to send out scouts first to find out. The situation is more appropriate

Since this valley is a secret place for the devil, it is not very safe. Except for the disciples who were sent to explore the way, there are more than 100 people from the Perak Camp and Qingyun Guards. They have set up tight defenses inside and outside the hall to prevent the enemy from attacking.

However, the expected attack did not come until two hours past noon. The five scouts sent out all returned one after another.

According to the investigation of these disciples, the valley is about ten miles long from front to back and three or four miles wide. It is a steep rocky mountain that cannot be climbed on all sides. Except for the tunnel that they entered earlier, no other way out of the valley has been found.

The valley is full of hills and forests, with lush vegetation, but no human settlements or villages are found. The Mi Tuo Hall is the only building in the entire valley [

The various disciples who were sent out to investigate were carefully questioned. Hua Bushi was sitting on the stone steps in front of Mi Tuo Hall, looking at the mountains and forests in the distance, thinking intently.

Chu Yiyi walked to him and sat down, looking at the young master with her beautiful eyes and said: "There is a camp of demons in this valley. Did they just build this temple here? In fact, the nest is not here."

Hua Bushi said: "Of course it's possible, but such a hidden valley is an excellent place to build a base. How can people in the devil's path only build a temple? From what I see, their lair should be right here." We just found it”

Chu Yiyi said: "Young Master means that there is a secret passage in this valley that leads to the devil's lair."

Hua Bushi didn't answer. After a while, he said: "We'd better withdraw from this valley first."

Chu Yiyi was startled and said: "If we evacuate like this, wouldn't it be a failure halfway?"

Hua Bushi said: "I have gained something since I have entered this valley. Judging from the current situation, I am afraid it will be difficult to find the secret passage leading to the devil's lair. The other party probably already knows that we have entered the valley and must have already prepared it." To prevent us, it’s better to retreat to the outside of the valley to wait for the people in the devil’s path to take action, and then we can deal with it later.”

If we were looking for a secret passage into the valley by chance in the cave outside the mountain, we were lucky. Now the valley has a radius of more than ten miles and is much larger than the cave. If we want to search for the secret passage into the valley, we are lucky. Looking for a needle in a haystack

That's why Hua Bushi thought that it would be better to let the demonic man show up on his own than to search in vain. Moreover, although the valley was as warm as spring and the scenery was beautiful, there was always something strange about it, making people feel a faint sense of danger entering it. This valley seems to have stepped into a fatal trap. This is also the reason why the young master wants to evacuate early.

Chu Yiyi also understood the meaning of Hua Bushi's words and said: "Okay, let's get out of the valley as soon as possible. As long as we stay nearby, we won't be afraid that we won't find any trace of the people in the devil's way."

Hua Bushi nodded and stood up from the stone steps. Just as he was about to issue an order, he suddenly saw Liu Yuanhe hurriedly walking out of the hall.

"Young Master Hua Biyun feels a little unwell. It seems that the poison in his body is acting up." Liu Yuanhe said loudly before he could get closer.

The great elder had a disgusting face and had always cared about Huang Biyun since he recognized her as his adopted daughter. His anxious expression was palpable at this moment.

Hua Bushi was slightly shocked when he heard this. Previously, in the secret cellar of Lingdu Temple, he had carefully checked Huang Biyun's wrist veins and knew that she was poisoned by poison. The reason for taking "Xiong Dan Bao Xin Pill" as an antidote

That's why Hua Bushi planned to wait until the battle was over to return to Mengjin City and then find a way to detoxify her. First, because there was a lack of medicine here. Second, it was not easy to detoxify her. It would take at least half a day to detoxify her. It was inconvenient in the current crisis, but she never thought that her poison would attack so quickly.

Hua Bushi immediately said: "Elder Liu, don't wait for me to have a look."

Huang Biyun's situation is indeed very bad

She huddled up in a ball in the corner of the hall, her face was pale, her teeth were chattering, and her body was shaking, as if she felt extremely cold.

Little by little dark red blood spots the size of soybeans were appearing from under the skin on her neck and cheeks at a speed visible to the naked eye. The expression on her face was blank and she seemed to have lost consciousness.

Hua Bushi quickly walked to Huang Biyun, picked up her wrist veins, and checked for a moment. Then he glanced at the red spots on her neck and said solemnly: "It seems that Miss Biyun is indeed poisoned. There is enough medicine here."

I can only use the technique of pricking the acupuncture points with silver needles to temporarily control the poisonous poison in her body so that it will not spread fatally. After I get out of the valley, I can try to detoxify her."

Liu Yuanhe said: "Then please Master Hua, please help me quickly. I think she won't be able to last long in this condition."

Hua Bushi's eyes swept across the hall and said: "Please help Elder Liu to carry Miss Biyun to the back of the Buddha statue over there, and I will perform magic on her there."[

Liu Yuanhe did not hesitate to lean over and pick up Huang Biyun and strode towards the back of the Maitreya Buddha statue. Hua Bushi followed quickly.

The Buddha statue together with the base stone platform is quite spacious. There are several curtains on both sides. Behind it is a five or six foot wide space. Because the Buddha statue is blocked, other people in the hall cannot see this place.

Seeing Liu Yuanhe put Huang Biyun on the ground and lay down, Hua Bushi said: "You have to remove your clothes to prick the 'point' with the silver needle. Please step aside for a while, Elder Liu."

Liu Yuanhe nodded and said: "Then Biyun will ask Master Hua to save her." After saying that, he turned around and walked out.

Hua Bushi said to Ximen Tong on the side: "A Tong, you should go out first."

Since Yang Jiangyi left, whenever he travels outside, at least one of Ximen Tong and Li Hu will follow Hua Bushi to protect his safety. At the moment, Li Hu is organizing disciples from the Pili camp outside the palace to explore the valley and follow him.

Next to Hua Bushi is Ximen Tong

After hearing what the young master said, Ximen Tong agreed and left.

Seeing that there was someone else beside him, Hua Bushi took a futon from the side and sat down in front of Huang Biyun. He reached out to untie her clothes. However, when Hua Bushi glanced at her cheek, he suddenly saw a flash in his eyes.

I can't help but feel a chill in my heart

Why did her eyes still move when she had already lost consciousness due to the poisonous attack?
