At the beginning of August, the heat was unbearable, and the scorching sun overhead made it even more sultry in the mountains without a trace of wind.
Before entering the valley, it was already noon, and although they were all monks, no one would be able to resist the heat, so they found a cool place under a big tree by the brook.
"It's a hot day, hehe, but I don't have a bit of appetite at noon. β
Zhang Bao wiped the sweat from his face and muttered.
Erqin was even happier, walked downstream to find a deeper place, and jumped in directly to wash.
Fortunately, the stream in this mountain is still relatively cool.
Uncle Tai is Zhang Xian's shadow, there is nothing that will not leave Zhang Xian three steps away, this is the strange master's order, let him protect Zhang Xian closely.
Although Zhang Xian's current cultivation is not worse than Uncle Tai's, Uncle Tai still persistently protects Zhang Xian.
In his spare time, Xiao Fei sorted out the copywriting, picked out the more important ones that needed to be signed and approved by Zhang Xian, handed them to Zhang Xian for review and approval, and then he sent them away.
Zhang Bao is a heartless person, he saw Er Qin go to take a bath, and he also leaned over.
Zhu Jun frowned, and the two people who were sent by Luo Ye to temporarily assist Zhu Jun also raised their brows.
It seems that Er Qin and Zhang Bao, these three kings' personal guards are too derelict in their duties, how can such a person be sent to the king's side.
Only Uncle Tai and Xiao Fei did their duty.
It can be seen that His Majesty did not look displeased, and did not seem to care, which puzzled the three of them.
In fact, Er Qin and Zhang Bao were not incompetent, reckless, and disrespectful to the king.
It's that the king deliberately indulged the three of them, in fact, Zhang Xian didn't need the three of them to protect him, but the three of them were all rough personalities, and Zhang Xian stayed by his side to plan to coach them personally, mainly in terms of cultivation, and these three people would sooner or later be put into the army to become fierce generals.
Erqin is a native of Qin, and he is so straightforward, Zhang Xian stayed by his side in addition to guiding them to practice, and the most important thing is to influence them for his own use, which takes time, now put them in the army, and when they meet Qin people, they will run back to Qin.
Zhang Bao is a rough person, he has no scheming, and he is not a general, Zhang Xian stayed by his side, just to find ways to train him to become the worst and a fierce general, which also takes time.
That is to say, Zhang Xian does not deliberately restrain them, but only subtly changes their hearts and temperaments, and only by practicing the way, can they do it recklessly, and Zhang Xian does not expect them to protect themselves, but there is something to let them act as thugs, and it is not bad to practice their hands.
"Elder Ying, you ask Zhang Heng to go to that ancient tomb group to explore the way first, and we will look for that Qian Fu who is no longer Qian Fu here. β
Seeing that the eagle demon stayed here to show his impatience, Zhang Xian asked it to find Zhang Heng, who was hiding in the surroundings and secretly protecting him, and asked them to go to the ancient tombs first.
The eagle demon nodded, and his figure disappeared in front of everyone's eyes in a flash.
Zhu Jun and the two evil people couldn't help but shrink their pupils, and they were horrified.
Only then did they understand that the king was protected by a big master, and as for Er Qin and Zhang Bao's behavior, it was nothing.
"Zhu Jun, you are very familiar with this place, how about you introduce that ancient tomb group first?"
Zhang Xian beckoned to Zhu Jun and asked him to come over and sit beside him.
Zhu Jun was frightened, and the two intelligence officers of the Red Evil pushed him, and Zhu Jun came to Zhang Xian's side in fear and sat on a stone.
Zhu Jun introduced that this ancient tomb group is still dozens of miles away from them, and it is necessary to cross three mountains, and the ancient tomb group is in a mountain col.
He heard from the old man of the mountain hunter that the tomb was discovered more than a thousand years ago, and that several young hunters had strayed into it, and only one escaped alive, and the others died inside.
And the one who escaped also went insane and died of self-harm soon after.
Since then, it has become a forbidden area for hunters, and no one dares to set foot in it again.
According to the man who escaped, the mountain col was filled with a thick fog and a ghostly atmosphere, and there was a terrible cry from inside, and he escaped for his life because he was too timid to go deeper. β
Zhu Jun finally said.
"So, this man didn't see anything, but was scared crazy?"
It's a bit unreasonable, and I go crazy when I don't see anything.
"It's all passed down by word of mouth, and that's what I've known by now. β
It seems that the man who saw something strange and said a lot of things to people, and the people who listened to him, for fear of causing panic by telling the truth, concealed it, or thought that this man was crazy and what he said was not credible, but in order not to have a tragedy happen in the future, he just changed some words in good faith to deter people from going there to explore or take risks. β
Zhang Xian analyzed.
"Or maybe something important has been lost in the past thousand years. β
Zhu Jun opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say, that's all he knew.
Zhang Xian was silent and meditated, it seems that Zhu Jun can't get any information about the ancient tombs, but just know the location of the ancient tombs, the eagle demon and Zhang Heng, the two big demons, go to investigate, and when he brings someone here, he may be able to get some information.
"Putting down the ancient tombs in advance, how familiar are you with the valley in front of you?"
Qian Fu fled into this valley and lost his trace, as strong as an eagle demon can't find it, indicating that there is something unknown in this valley.
"This valley, which we call the Valley of the Snake, is also a very dangerous place for the hunters, and it is said that there is a big blue snake entrenched here, but not many people see it, that is to say.
I am a person with a desire for adventure, the ancient tombs dare not go, I often come here, I have not seen any big green snakes, but there are indeed a lot of snakes here, but there is no threat, it is not surprising, there are snakes everywhere in the Gufu Mountain, heheγγ,"
Zhu Jun sneered and said, he always came to the Snake Valley to find the legendary big green snake, young man, just a little adventurous.
"There is nothing special about the Valley of the Coiled Snake and the other valleys, except for the legend of the Great Green Serpent.
I have never seen a big green snake here, but there is an interesting place that attracts me, at the end of this valley, there is a large half-withered tree, all of us here together can not hug it, this tree is dead on the sunny side, but it is very lush in the shade, what kind of tree this tree is, I don't recognize, tell the old people, they don't know what kind of tree it is.
However, the fruit of this tree is very delicious, and I have eaten it a lot, but I have never dared to enter the tree hole on the sunny side, and as soon as I arrived, my scalp exploded, and my hair exploded γγγimmediately."
"That's it, let's go. β
Hearing this, Zhang Xian suddenly pressed up, beckoned to Zhang Bao, the second Qin who was taking a bath, and went straight to the Snake Valley.
Zhu Junleng paused, and hurriedly caught up with Zhang Xian, because he was here to be a guide, and he was most familiar with it here.
The Snake Valley is very deep, and at the end is a towering mountain, which is the second highest peak of Gufu Mountain.
Half an hour later, Zhang Xian and the others came to the half-withered tree that Zhu Jun had obtained.
Walking down this way, Zhang Xian did not go straight to the direction of the big tree, but released his divine sense to take a closer look, this snake valley does want Zhu Jun to say, except for more snakes, there is really nothing special.
Because Zhang Xian and the others were searching and advancing, the speed was much slower, although Zhang Xian felt that Qian Fu was most likely hiding in that tree hole, but that was just speculation, and other places could not let go of the search.
This half-withered tree is indeed strange, the withered half, the bark has long been peeled off, and the trunk is white and crystal clear, shaped like white jade.
The other side looked full of life, the bark was half a foot thick, the old bark was cracked like dragon scales, the branches were luxuriant, and there were many fist-sized fruits, a bit like pears, which were not ripe now, but half of them were green, half purple-red, but the purple-red side was facing north, that is, the shaded side.
It's all the same fruit.
This tree is hundreds of feet high, and on the dry side, there are only a few thick trunks left, but the lush side is densely branched, vibrant, and fruitful, exuding a strange fruit aroma.
Zhang Xian and the others circled around this big tree several times, but no one recognized what kind of tree it was, although the fruit was like a pear, it was definitely not a pear tree.
"You've eaten the fruit, what it tastes like. β
Xiao Fei asked Zhu Jundao.
"Sweet and sour, melt in the mouth, after eating I feel refreshed, as if there is a useful inexhaustible energy, but I can't eat too much, the first time I was greedy, I ate three, the result is as uncomfortable as if I am tired of eating, and dizzy, there is a feeling of drowsiness, two or three days before recovery, so since then, I only pick two a year, eat in two days. β
Zhang Xian glanced back at Zhu Jun, and couldn't help but understand the reason why Zhu Jun advanced quickly, the fruit on this tree was definitely a treasure medicine, and Zhu Jun accidentally ate one or two pieces every year, which was his cultivation improvement.
"This is a manuscript of Ziyang Divine Skill, you can take it to the study, but I remind you, don't let it go out to show off, otherwise it will kill you. β
Zhang Xian gave Zhu Jun the manuscript of Emperor Xuyang's Ziyang Divine Skill, because he could see that Zhu Jun's cultivation was the lowest inferior Ziyang Divine Skill remnant method that was circulated in the rivers and lakes, and it was regarded as a stall, but he didn't expect Zhu Jun to actually cultivate to the peak realm of martial arts with this local stall, which shows that his cultivation talent is very good, which may also be the reason why the fruit on this tree helped him.
Zhu Jun didn't know what the Ziyang Divine Skill was, and the local stall he got was not called the Ziyang Divine Skill, but the two Red Evil people were stunned.
"You two can also practice with him. β
"Thank you, Your Majesty. β
Zhu Jun didn't know the preciousness of this secret book, how could the two red evil people not know, Zhang Xian agreed that the two of them could also cultivate together, and he knelt down and kowtowed excitedly.
"Get up, don't kneel and prostrate at every turn, men have gold under their knees, kneel to the heavens and kneel to their parents, and others don't have to. β
"Whoa!"
When he turned to the sunny side again, Zhang Xian looked up at the tree hole that was more than three feet highγγγγγ
