    As soon as the poison master came up, he greeted with a smile on his face, "Hey, Taotie, do you have any pets? If you keep three pets."

    As he spoke, he looked at the big dog Yi Xing was leading, and blinked, as if he thought he was dazzled, rubbed his eyes again, and said in surprise:

    "Fuck! Three heads and one body?"

    The poison master thought of something, and suddenly widened his eyes, "Hell three-headed dog?!"

    Cerberus raised his eyelids and gave him a cold gaze.

    He remembered the smell of this escapee. Like the escapee next to him who could summon nightmares, he had been with his master in the Gluttony Hell.

    He hates all survivors associated with his master.

    The left and right dog heads are already eager to try, and can't wait to dedicate these survivors to their masters to pay off their crimes.

    The head in the middle controlled the body, preventing those two guys from rushing out.

    The owner didn't mean to loosen the dog chain, he understood that the owner didn't allow them to do it.

    The two new escapees knew about Taotie, but they didn't know much about him, let alone the hell three-headed dog, which was unheard of.

    Can't help asking: "Poison Master, why do you react so strongly? This three-headed dog... is it powerful?"

    A-level hunters, hunters are ranked among the top ten terrifying existences, do you think they are powerful?

    Poison Master didn't dare to say a word, and didn't dare to go any further, his eyes wandering towards Yi Xing and the big dog.

    The action of Taotie holding the three big dogs was so natural that he was not sure if this three-headed dog was the other three-headed dog.

    An Wumeng was no less suspicious than Poison Master.

    When he and Yi Xing parted ways in Ma Weipo, the image of the three-headed dog was still a two-meter-tall man, but now it is...

    And that dog chain, such a powerful hunter, how could he tolerate being led like this?

    An Wumeng looked at Yi Xing with concern.

    Once the hell three-headed dog turned back, Yi Xing would never survive from his hands.

    Yi Xing felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and was about to drive the culprit who ruined the atmosphere—the three-headed dog—to the back, when he heard the little paper figurine sticking to his ear and saying:

    "The key should already be on you, right? Run."

    There was indeed something extra in his pocket. Yi Xing reached out and took out a gold hairpin, held it in front of his eyes, and asked, "Run? Why?"

    Little paper man: "..."

    It's too late for others to get the key and hide it. You know that you will divide the camp to snatch the key, and you still take the key out?

    "You trust them that much? Later they know they need to snatch the key, do you really think they won't do anything to you?"

    The little paper figurine paused, then sighed a moment later: "Never have too high expectations of human nature."

    The three-headed hellhound nodded, and rarely agreed with the little paper man's point of view.

    In order to survive, even survivors will raise their butcher knives against their own kind.

    He secretly looked forward to the next developments.

    As long as those survivors attack the master first, he has a reason to fight back to protect the master, killing all those people to the master.

    This is the trouble with following a master who has a bottom line, and you can't be the one who makes the first move.

    The electronic sound rang in the ears of all the survivors.

    "The "Key-Nobile" has appeared.』

    『Limited to one day, after one day, the camp holding the "Key-Nobile" is deemed to have cleared the level.』

    『Immortal Mountain faction: "Imperial Concubine", "Jiedushi", "Maiden", "Maid".』

    『Human camp: "Emperor", "Taoist", "Taoist", "Taoist".』

    "Please work hard to seize the "Key-Nobile".』

    Unlike what the little paper figurine said, "Jiedushi" is not in the opposite camp of Yi Xing, but in the same camp as him.

    Is it because the three-headed dog is his follower?

    Automatically align with him.

    Just as was guessing, heard one of the two strange escapees panicking:

    "What does this mean? The faction with the key clears the level, what about the other faction?"

    An Wumeng frowned deeply, as if thinking about something.

    The poison master thought for a while, but didn't answer directly, he just said: "I have explained no less than fifty dungeons, and this is the first time I have seen such rules."

    Another escapee wearing punk style clothes directly pointed out, "There is a key to pass the level, and of course there is no way to pass the level without the key. The ending is nothing more than being trapped in the instance or dying."

    "The key gold hairpin..."

    He looked at Yi Xing, "Is that the one in your hand?"

    All eyes fell on the gold hairpin in Yi Xing's hand.

    The atmosphere tensed instantly.

    The ears of the three-headed dog stood up.

    He took two steps to the side, protecting Yi Xing behind him, staring excitedly at the escapees who stopped about five steps away.

    After waiting for so long, he finally had the chance to make a fair move.

    "Yes." Yi Xing didn't try to hide it at all, and even pinched the tip of the gold hairpin and turned it around a few times to let everyone see it more clearly.

    The head of the gold hairpin is made of thin gold sheets, and the gold wire is rolled into the shape of flowers and plants. The leaves of the grass are inlaid with turquoise, and the flowers are inlaid with gemstones and pearls of various colors.

    There is a gold strand at the lower end of the hairpin head, and the joint between the gold strand and the hairpin head is slightly twisted into an arc.

    Even if a few people had no intention of admiring the golden hairpin at all, they had to admit that the golden hairpin was very beautiful and extremely precious at first sight.

    The punk style escapee covered in metal ornaments said: "Give us the key. You are only one person now, we have four people, you have no chance of winning..."

    An Wumeng interrupted him in a cold voice, "There is still one more day, maybe there are other ways to break the situation, don't mess yourself up."

    "Is there any other way to break the game? The electronic voice has already said, after one day, the camp holding the gold hairpin can pass the level, and this is the only one for the gold hairpin!"

    The punk survivor raised his hand and showed his talent at the gold hairpin in Yi Xing's hand.

    Nobile came out and flew towards the survivor.

    "Wow!" The three-headed hellhound jumped up, and the dog's head in the middle bit the nobile hairpin and cut it off.

    Cerberus returned to Yi Xing with the golden hairpin in his mouth, his tail wagging happily, and his face was full of praise.

    "It's kind of useful." Yi Xing patted his head and took the golden hairpin.

    The punk escapee's expression became ruthless, and the metal ornaments on his body instantly disintegrated, turning into pieces of sharp metal blades.

    With a wave of his hand, the metal blade flew out and shot at Yi Xing.

    "Stop!" An Wumeng shot down two pieces, and the remaining metal pieces were already in front of Yi Xing.

    Yi Xing grabbed the three-headed dog who was about to set fire to it, and at the same time set up a space barrier around him.

    The shimmering metal piece stopped at half an arm in front of him, and stopped moving forward.

    A trace of surprise flashed in Yi Xing's eyes.

    These metal pieces did not hit his space barrier, that is to say, it was the survivor who actively controlled them to stop.

    "Come on," Yi?

    The punk escapee said: "I don't want to hurt anyone, you give me the golden hairpin, and I will let you go."

    Yi Xing was playing with the gold hairpin in his hand, ignoring the metal blade in front of him and the man's threat as nothing, and said: "It's not impossible to give this gold hairpin to you, but..."

    "But what?" the punk escapee asked urgently.

    Yi Xing looked at him, and said slowly: "You have to help me find the missing half first."

    "Missing?" The Punk Survivor frowned slightly, looked carefully at the gold hairpin in his hand, and said displeasedly:

    "It's clearly intact, so what's missing? Don't try to deceive me."

    "One strand is a hairpin, and two strands are hairpins."

    Yi Xing picked up the gold hairpin again and showed them, showing them a gold strand at the lower end of the hairpin, saying: "It is said to be a hairpin, but it only has one strand, and one strand is missing."

    Punk Survivor: "?"

    An Wumeng, Poison Master and another survivor: "???"

    A group of people who didn't understand ancient hair accessories at all looked at each other in blank dismay.

    ——What kind of hairpin with one strand and two strands?

    On the contrary, the little paper figurine on Yi Xing's shoulder suddenly turned over and jumped up as if trying to understand something.

    "That's right! A hairpin with one stick is called a hairpin, and a hairpin with two sticks is called a hairpin! This is not a complete key at all!"

    Three-headed dog: "..."

    Dogs don't understand, dogs only know that they can't get rid of those bad survivors.

    An Wumeng reacted first, and said to everyone:

    "The customs clearance rules of the dungeon are set like this, probably because the key that was supposed to be one is divided into two parts. If you find the other half of the gold hairpin, maybe everyone can pass the customs."

    The punk escapee was skeptical, but under An Wumeng's gaze, he took back the metal blade.

    He asked, "Where is the other half of the key?"

    "I don't know." Yi Xing said.

    "You don't know?!" The punk survivor raised his voice, "Then what should I do? Search from room to room?"

    "That's a good suggestion," Yi Xing made a gesture of invitation, "Go and find it, thank you for your hard work."

    An Wumeng held down the escapee who was about to run away in anger, and said seriously:

    "Let's first analyze where it might exist."

    He looked at Yi Xing and asked, "Taotie, where did you get this golden hairpin?"

    Yi Xing leaned against the pillar and said, "It directly appeared in my pocket."

    The Punk Survivor checked his pockets, empty.

    "Why did it appear in your pocket? Not in my pocket?"

    "Gaotie's identity is 'Imperial Concubine', and the golden hairpin is the token of 'Imperial Concubine', it is normal for him to appear on him."

    An Wumeng suddenly stopped talking, "The token..."

    Why is it said that the gold hairpin is a token of the imperial concubine?

    In "Song of Everlasting Sorrow", Concubine Yang divides the golden hairpin into two halves, one half is kept by herself, and the other half is handed over to the envoy of the emperor, that is, the Taoist priest who found Concubine Yang's soul for Xuan Sect, and handed it back to Xuan Sect.

    An Wumeng searched up and down her body, but there was no gold hairpin, then looked at the poison master who was a "Taoist priest", and said:

    "Do you have a gold hairpin on you?"

    "No way……"

    The poison master quickly touched his body and emptied his pockets.

    Unfortunately nothing was found.

    Yi Xing watched them busy.

    Yi Xing expected that they didn't have a key with them.

    If half of the keys were placed directly in the other camp, the previous survivors would have left the dungeon together, so that so many people would not be trapped to death in the dungeon.

    Even the little paper figurine was mentioned by him, so he knew that only half of the "gold hairpin" was contested by them at the beginning, which also showed that the survivors had never found the other half of the "gold hairpin".

    So many people have not found the other half of the golden hairpin, where is it?

    "Just express your affection with the old things, and send the tin alloy hairpin to the future..."

    An Wumeng tried his best to recall all the verses related to "Golden Hairpin" in "Song of Everlasting Sorrow".

    "...The hairpin keeps one share and one fan, the hairpin breaks the gold and divides the tin... Seven Moons Seven Suns Longevity Temple, in the middle of the night no one murmurs the time..."

    Yi Xing paused, then turned around and asked, "What did you just say?"

    An Wumeng subconsciously repeated, "Seven Moons Seven Suns Longevity Temple..."
