"How to do?"

Xu Changshou's forehead was covered with sweat. He looked at the ground under his feet, which was red hard soil.

He decided to fight. He gritted his teeth, took out a talisman for earth escape and stuck it on his body.

Then, Xu Changshou went straight into the ground.

Three or four meters deep underground, Xu Changshou could still feel the existence of the formation.

I continued drilling down, and after about seven or eight meters, I could no longer feel the existence of the formation.

At this time, Xu Changshou began to drill in.

The deeper he went, the hotter it became, and Xu Changshou was almost suffocating.

After drilling about ten meters, Xu Changshou suddenly felt a sudden loosening above his head. He understood that he had passed through the formation.

To be on the safe side, Xu Changshou drilled another three or four meters before starting to drill upwards.

However, the soil became harder the higher he went. When Xu Changshou was about to break through the ground, he hit a layer of rock.

Xu Changshou's face turned pale. The earth escape talisman can only be used to escape underground, and cannot penetrate rocks.

In desperation, Xu Changshou took out another wall-penetrating talisman and finally got to the ground.

At this time, he had already passed through the formation.

The cave suddenly became wide and hot, and in front of it, there was a river of boiling lava.

Xu Changshou was frightened. If he had moved forward a little more, he would have plunged headfirst into the lava river.

With the light of the magma, you can see that on the bank of the magma river, there is a nursery about ten feet in size. The nursery is surrounded by fences and planted with red, green and yellow herbs.

Xu Changshou leaned over to take a look. Each blade of grass had four leaves, and when the leaves were spread out, they looked like a windmill.

"Yes, this is the Four Immortal Grass!"

There are two kinds of the Four Immortal Herbs here.

A green one, green means it is not mature yet.

The other type is red, mature, and can be used as medicine.

Xu Changshou counted them carefully and found that there were twenty-eight green plants and fourteen red plants.

Xu Changshou nodded secretly, the Zhu family was indeed dishonest.

According to Hu Jiuniang, the Zhu family reported a total of thirty-six plants of the Four Immortal Grass, twenty-four of which were immature and twelve were mature.

In fact, there are twenty-eight immature plants and fourteen mature plants.

The extra money will definitely go into the pockets of the Zhu family.

But it's mine now.

Xu Changshou chuckled and pulled out two mature Four Immortal Grasses. Then he took out two jade boxes and placed the Four Immortal Grasses in them respectively.

After packing the four immortal herbs, Xu Changshou sealed the jade box with spiritual energy.

Once sealed, the medicinal effect will not be lost, but it must never be opened, otherwise the medicine must be used.

Xu Changshou did not get more than two plants of Four Immortal Grass. Two plants of Four Immortal Grass were enough for him to use.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to get more, but he doesn’t dare. This is an important strategic material for the sect. If he gets too much, the sect will definitely send people to track it down.

Xu Changshou and others are in Zhujiayao at this time. They are the most suspicious and I am afraid they will be the first to be investigated.

If a great cultivator of foundation-building stage were sent to interrogate him, directly targeting his soul, Xu Changshou's theft of the Four Immortal Herbs would surely be exposed.

It is safest to take only two plants of Four Immortal Grass.

The Zhu family reported twelve plants to the sect, and he stole two extra plants, which were privately kept by the Zhu family.

In this way, even if the Zhu family knew that someone had stolen the elixir, they dared not say anything and could only admit their loss in silence.

"Oh no, Xiao Xuanzi was knocked unconscious."

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! The formation has been tampered with."

"Go in and take a look."

There was a lot of noise outside, obviously someone from the Zhu family had arrived.

Xu Changshou took out the wall-penetrating talisman again, escaped into the ground, and then changed to the earth-escaping talisman.

This time, Xu Changshou got out of the cave in one breath, and then hid himself with an invisibility talisman.

He glanced at the cave. At this time, all the people from the Zhu family had entered the cave.

Someone rescued the young gatekeeper:

"Xiao Xuanzi, wake up and tell grandpa what happened just now?"

"I didn't know anything. I just saw a dark shadow and then I was knocked unconscious."

Inside the cave.

Seeing that the formation was intact, the Zhu family breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhu Songling smiled and said, "The formation was triggered, but it wasn't opened. It should be fine."

Zhu Songbai said proudly, "Don't worry, big brother. A mere thief wants to break through our Zhu family's forbidden formation. It's simply wishful thinking. Grandpa spent a lot of effort on this..."

"Alright, second brother, go in and take a look. The Four Immortal Grass is of great importance. Don't let anything go wrong."

Brothers Zhu Songling and Zhu Songbai opened the formation and came directly to the lava river.

"One, two, three, four, five... twelve!"

"One, two, three, four, five... twelve!"

I counted it twice, and it was twelve each time.

The two brothers couldn't help but look at each other.

"Brother, is it missing?"

"Yes, there are two missing."

The cave is closed with only one entrance. The formation at the entrance has not been broken and there are no signs of damage to the cave walls.

"Second brother, you have to give me an explanation."

"What, brother, you doubt me?"

"Only the two of us brothers can open this formation. Besides you, who else can open it?"

"I'm innocent, big brother. It's not me. It's really not me."

"If it's not you, then who else could it be, grandpa?"

"Brother, Grandpa is about to become a Taoist. No matter how foolish I am, I would never do such a thing!"

"Hmph! Don't think I don't know. It's because Grandpa is about to become a Taoist, and my Zhu family is in danger. You want to leave the Zhu family, so you stole the Four Immortal Grasses."

"It's unfair, brother, it really wasn't me."

"Second brother, quickly hand over the Four Immortal Grasses, or don't blame me for being rude."

"Nonsense, you're slandering me. No, it's you, it's you. You must have stolen the Four Immortal Grass and are blaming me for it."

"nonsense!"

"..."

In the cave, the Zhu brothers started arguing.

Outside, three figures quickly rushed towards the cave. They were Leng Muyang, Sun Zhengyang and Hu Jiuniang.

At this time, Hu Jiuniang had changed her clothes and followed along, pretending to know nothing.

As soon as they entered the cave, Xu Changshou appeared and followed them.

"What happened?"

Leng Muyang spoke loudly.

Hearing his words, the Zhu brothers immediately stopped arguing, quickly closed the formation, and walked outside.

"Fellow Daoist Leng, why are you here?"

Zhu Songling came out quickly and looked the four people up and down, as if trying to find any flaws.

Just now in the cave, although Zhu Songling insisted that it was his brother who did it, he was also a little suspicious of Leng Muyang and others.

After all, they were all in the Zhu family at that time, so it was normal for them to be attracted to the Four Immortal Grasses.

The only thing that Zhu Songling couldn't understand was that two of the Four Immortal Herbs were missing, but the formation was not broken. How did they steal them?

Leng Muyang said unhappily, "I heard the alarm and rushed here. It's the dead of night. What are you, the Zhu family, up to? Are you going to let me sleep?"

Leng Muyang was very unhappy. He was having a great time with the maid and was suddenly interrupted. Of course he was unhappy.

"It's nothing. It might be a wild beast in the mountains that triggered the formation, so the alarm sounded. It's okay, it's okay."

Leng Muyang looked unconvinced: "Nothing? If everything is fine, can all the Zhu family members go out? Come on, tell me, what happened?"

"What else could it be? The Four Immortal Grass was stolen!"

Zhu Songbai blurted out.

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of Zhu Songling, Leng Muyang, Sun Zhengyang, Hu Jiuniang, and Xu Changshou all changed.
