The talisman that Jun Xiao gave to Lin Jie and Bai Zixu was two pieces, two fingers wide and half finger long, with ancient patterns carved on it, thin and light, and I don’t know what texture it was, and it was quite hard.

When they took it, they saw a thin golden light on the wooden sign winding down, as if an invisible hand was holding a pen on the wooden piece, looking a bit like a dragon head breaking out from the cloud. But before they could see clearly, the pattern outlined by the golden line hid into the wooden sign and disappeared.

But the one given to Bai Ke is a bit special - a string of brown and black wooden bead bracelets. The texture of the talisman is that each of these wooden beads is very small, but the weight is not light. After wrapping two paths on the hand, it just hangs on Bai Ke's wrist bone.

This biasedness blinded Lin Jie's eyes.

When Jun Xiao took out the string of wooden beads, Bai Ke always felt that the bracelet looked familiar.

Then he remembered that he seemed to have seen a string on Jun Xiao's wrist before, but because of the sleeves blocking him, he saw one or two of them showing their sleeves.

"This string of beads..." Jun Xiao paused, as if he had remembered something, and was silent for a moment before continuing: "The string of beads also have talismans engraved on them, take them with you."

Bai Ke nodded, and his thin fingers gently twisted two chains wrapped around his left wrist. The wooden beads strung on them were small and round, and had long been worn out of the roughness of the wood. The touch was slightly cool, which was very comfortable. And it didn't get in the way, so it left it.

Jun Xiao gave them these and walked straight to the edge of the cloud bamboo.

They didn't see any movement at all, and they found that golden runes appeared all over him, and the black robe was windless and her sleeves flew.

He closed his eyes slightly, and from the side, his eyebrows were tall and clear, and his nose bridge was straight.

Legend has it that practicing Taoism can prolong life and make you successful. Among them, you can live forever and stay young forever. With your extraordinary temperament, even if you look average, you still have a glory.

Bai Ke looked at him and felt that this man not only had an extraordinary temperament, but also had an impeccable appearance. The spells that made Lin Jie next to him stunned seemed to be impressed by him, and he felt like he could freely come and go between heaven and earth with a wave of his sleeve.

The golden light around Jun Xiao was getting stronger and stronger, and the runes were also flowing faster and faster. He saw him open his eyes again, and the runes that originally entangled him wrapped around him like a golden dragon wrapped around the clouds and bamboos, flowing and tangling among the bamboo branches.

Until all the runes surrounded the cloud bamboo, Jun Xiao tightened his fingers and the runes hid into the branches and leaves of the cloud bamboo.

"Okay?" Lin Jie blinked, looked at Jun Xiao, and then looked at the Yunzhu that was exactly the same as before, and asked with some uncertainty.

Junxiao said "yes".

"Uh... my eyes are not very good." Lin Jie blinked his eyes twice again, "Where is the Hidden Gate?"

"..." Bai Ke's expressionless face: "If you can see it, it's called Hidden Gate?"

Lin Jie: "Okay, then I don't have a good mind. Where is the Hidden Gate?"

Bai Ke: "..."

Jun Xiao glanced at him and said, "The whole cloud bamboo." After saying that, he held Bai Ke Qingqing's thin wrist, and then stepped into the cloud bamboo without looking back.

So everyone watched him disappear as if he was exploring a swamp when he encountered the cloud bamboo. Only Bai Ke's hand was left behind.

Before Bai Ke could come back to his senses from the strange experience of "living people disappearing under his nose", he grabbed his wrist and pulled him in.

Seeing Bai Ke disappearing in the cloud bamboo like this, Lin Jie gasped, and then, as if he was afraid of being leaked, he pushed Bai Zixu and followed him happily.

When Junxiao opened the Hidden Gate, Bai Ke had imagined what the secret realm would look like after Hidden Gate.

Although the world he sees with his eyes is very different from that of ordinary people, with no color, only light and shadow, black and white, and much monotonous and boring, he also has his own understanding of what he sees.

He felt that people like Jun Xiao would live in a place that is full of spiritual energy, beautiful mountains and rivers, and rich scenery. Such words can be classified as a manifestation in his world - that is, bright and clear.

I have long been tired of those vague and dim scenery, and Bai Ke's understanding of beauty is the word "clear".

He imagined that after he entered the Hidden Gate, he might see clearer and more elegant mountains and rivers than Hengtian Gate, or a wider world and flowing clouds, or a dense forest that covers the sky and the sun without seeing the edge of Huagai...

In short, Bai Ke never thought that after entering the secret realm through the Hidden Gate, the first thing that squeezed into his sight would be a beast face that had no beauty at all, so ferocious that it made people breathless and several shocking roars that resounded through the sky.

Bai Ke thought he was not a timid person. Many times he could keep calm when encountering thrilling situations, at least on the surface. But this time, he was so shocked by the sudden change of style that he gasped, and his heart seemed to have stopped for a second. Before he could come back to his senses, he felt that he was pressed against the chest by a heavy beast claw and fell to the ground.

At the same time, Lin Jie's timely howling came to his back: "Hello!!!"

And Bai Zixu's exclamation, who finally woke up from his daze, said: "Damn!!!"

The giant beast's claws were half the size of Bai Ke. He could even see that the long and sharp claw tips were almost touching his face, bent with hooks, as if one claw could tear off the entire skin.

The giant beast roared again to the sky, then suddenly lowered its head, and the open beast's mouth was more than enough to swallow Bai Ke's whole person.

Bai Ke struggled and subconsciously turned his head. But he felt a gust of wind passing by on his face. The beast claws, which were so heavy that he could not get out of breath, were suddenly moved away, and the pressure on his chest suddenly disappeared.

He turned his head and saw a figure jumping into the air. He raised his hand and held the front legs of the giant beast and threw it above. Then the man's hand suddenly shone brightly, condensed into a long sword, and slashed in the air, splitting the giant beast in half.

Another shocking roar was heard in his ear. Bai Ke subconsciously rolled to the side and then turned over on his feet. He happened to see another giant beast opening his bloody mouth to Lin Jie's face and roaring again.

The wind brought up hit Lin Jie's face, scaring him to death and almost urinated.

The giant beast's eyes were wide open, his face was ferocious, and he stared at Lin Jie. Lin Jie was almost crying. Just as the giant beast looked forward a few centimeters, his wet nose was almost rubbing against Lin Jie's nose, and then bared his teeth. When he opened his mouth again, Lin Jie, who felt that he would definitely die, subconsciously closed his eyes.

Then, he heard a deafening roar.

Lin Jie, who was covered in wind caused by the roar again, looked all over his face: "..."

Bai Ke: "..." If you don't have thunder or rain, you will only roar and scare. Is this giant beast stupid?

Lin Jie probably thought something was wrong, so he opened his eyes and stared at the giant beast that still bared his teeth and used his bloody mouth to intimidate him.

But before he could move, Bai Ke felt a person fall from the air beside him.

He turned his head suddenly and saw Huo Junxiao holding a sharp sword and landing steadily on the ground. Then, with him as the center, the strong wind suddenly blew, and the sword energy rushed everywhere, but he avoided Bai Ke and the other three and headed straight for the few giant beasts that were encircled in it.

In an instant, the giant beasts were torn into pieces and disappeared into the strong wind.

At this time, Bai Ke realized what was wrong—

When these giant beasts opened their mouths to them, there was no smell that the fishy beasts should have. When they were split open by Jun Xiao and crushed by the sword energy, the giant beasts did not even fall down a drop of blood.

What's more strange is that these giant beasts, like paper tigers, are scary but not hurt.

So much so that he, Bai Zixu and Lin Jie were embarrassed, but they were not even broken.

Could it be that Jun Xiao arranged to guard the house to prevent outsiders from invading?

Bai Ke thought about this and felt that it was not impossible. People who practice Taoism, using such a scary beast as a guard dog, was indeed something that was done by people like them who were not very reliable.

Turning back to look at Lin Jie and Bai Zixu who were patting their chests with shock. Judging from their expressions, they were probably thinking about the same as Bai Ke.

Unexpectedly, the next second, they found that they were thinking wrong.

Just as Jun Xiao stopped the strong wind, a figure suddenly appeared in the slanting thorn, floating like a ghost, heading towards Jun Xiao.

The man was not a good character to deal with at first glance. He had entangled Jun Xiao so much that he could not spare his energy to control the three people on the ground.

As the saying goes, when gods and immortals fight, ordinary people like Bai Ke naturally have to watch. However, even if they do it, it is not an easy thing for them.

Not to mention the figures of the two people who were so fast that they could hardly see clearly, their coquettish movements, the flying sand and stones formed by the two hatchbacks, the huge whirlwind, the runes of golden light, and the running energy that made the three below suffer from headaches.

In order to avoid being rolled up by the wandering whirlwind eyes, Bai Ke and his team dodged to find the largest tree, and then pressed their bodies tightly behind the terrifyingly thick tree trunk, using the trunk to block the gravel wind knife that accidentally scattered out.

Bai Ke frowned, a little worried about Jun Xiao's situation. Although this tall man in black has shown unfathomable cultivation and strength since he appeared, which makes people feel extremely reliable, this person who suddenly came out and fought with Jun Xiao for so long has not fallen at all, which shows that he is also an unfathomable master.

As a complete layman, Bai Ke couldn't tell at all which was higher and lower between Jun Xiao and that man.

He leaned against the tree trunk, stabilized his body, then turned his head and looked at the sky not far away, but even normal people could not tell the two figures, not to mention that his eyes were still in abnormal state.

Because the two of them were too fast, they seemed to him at this moment, just two balls of light spots that were kneaded together, even the brightness was comparable.

Maybe it's because you're closed? If you open your eyes, will it be much clearer and the difference in brightness will be more obvious?

Bai Ke thought about this, then hesitated for a moment and wanted to open his eyes. Unexpectedly, Lin Jie next to him suddenly wailed again: "Subtle!!!"

And Bai Zixu squeezed out of his throat with a sound: "What a coincidence, we met again..."

"What's wrong?" Bai Ke was speechless at their shock and cried, crying, and then turned around to see what was happening, but the same huge beast faced her face.

Bai Ke: "..."

In his aftermath, there were several giant beasts around him, and they had surrounded the three people hiding behind the tree.

Before, they suspected that the giant beast was the guardian beast that Jun Xiao himself set up, so even though they were frightened, they didn't think it was too scary after thinking about it. But now they found that there were others ambushing in this secret realm, so the giant beast was more likely brought by that person. After thinking about it this way, they could no longer be calm.

Bai Ke only felt that besides the sound of the wind that had never stopped, the sound of Junxiao fighting with the stranger in the sky not far away, the heavy breathing of the surrounding giant beasts and the growing heartbeat of his heart.

Jun Xiao obviously couldn't escape, and they were powerless in front of these giant beasts, as fragile as an ant to be crushed.

At this time, Bai Ke felt that due to the limitations of his eyes, he had only too few things to contact and recognize in the past eighteen years. Those that were enough to cope with daily life, but now his days are obviously running on a twisted and crazy road, and he could hardly control what he knew.

Lin Jie, who could struggle a little, probably never really encountered such a danger. He stood stiffly at this time, and Bai Ke could even feel his trembling slightly.

As for Bai Zixu, there is no need to expect.

What should I do?

What can I do?

Bai Ke ran his brain anxiously and quickly, but found that it was too late. After the group of giant beasts surrounded them in a circle and successfully caused psychological oppression and intimidation, they arched their huge bodies, bared their sharp teeth, opened their eyes wide, pulled out their attacking posture, and then rushed towards them.

When the fear reached its peak, Bai Ke instinctively opened his eyes. Two dark pools flowed quietly. When the huge beast mouth was about to swallow him, a layer of floating gold suddenly appeared. At the moment when his eyes changed, Bai Zixu, who had originally pressed against the trunk of the tree, closed his eyes and turned his head, trembled suddenly and opened his eyes.

At that moment, Bai Ke seemed to hear a long roar, as if it was from someone's mouth, and there were some strange near-demons. With the long roar, there were countless miserable sounds, including crying and laughing, some sharp, some floating... Like thousands of ghosts howling together, he pulled like a blunt saw in his head, causing him to burst into tears, and he wanted to scream.

Fortunately, this state lasted for only a moment, and the mixed sounds suddenly disappeared, as if they suddenly appeared.

Bai Kesong opened his frown brows and clenched teeth, and his misty gaze refocused and gradually returned to normal.

But what really happened to him was a strange scene—

The giant beasts that almost swallowed his head were squatting in a row about two meters away from them, posing like domestic puppies. Two of them even squinted their eyes and licked their claws. The fox-like big tail behind them was still shaking back and forth leisurely...

"Am I dead..." Bai Ke suddenly heard Lin Jie's question as angry as he was.

Bai Ke was stunned for the first time. Instead of complaining about his stupid questions, he answered in a low voice: "It shouldn't be."

"Oh—" Lin Jie said aloofly and suddenly came to his senses: "Ah?! No?! Still alive?"

Bai Ke looked at the group of giant beasts in front of him with some defense, as if they were shaking medicine, then glanced at Lin Jie, and found that the guy was still dead and closed his eyes. He said helplessly: "Yes, you can open your eyes."

Lin Jie opened his eyes as he spoke and was stunned by the scene in front of him.

He stared at the group of giant beasts that pretended to be good dogs, and then asked Bai Ke with a look of lightning struck by lightning: "What's the situation? Why are these giant beasts turning against each other faster than the second master!"

"Is it controlled?" Bai Ke only thought of this possibility. He turned around and looked into the air not far away with some confusion, wanting to see if Jun Xiao dispersed his spirit to help them relieve the danger. As a result, before he found the two figures that were tying together, he felt something was rubbing on his face, which felt soft and a little rough.

Bai Ke: "..." It doesn't feel right!

"Oh, it licks you! Help, it licks you! Mom feeds it, it licks you!" Lin Jie howled as if he saw the end of the world.

"Shut up." Bai Ke froze his neck and turned around, but when he happened to see the giant beast on the edge approaching him at some point, stretching out his huge pink tongue, and licking his head and face.

Bai Ke suddenly felt discomfort: "...Why lick me?"
