Chapter 23: Help, Murder!
Tianyunmen sent disciples this time, plus Jiang Yan has eleven people, plus a fellow Elder Xu Zun, a total of twelve people. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
But this is only the Tianyunmen family, and there are more than a dozen sects that Gu Feng came to contact this time. They had already made preparations, just waiting for Gu Feng to return, and took them to the Purple Cloud Cave Heaven together. So along the way, the number of people in the team increased dramatically, and after a few days it had reached nearly a hundred.
This made Nie Chen very depressed, in front of so many people, she had no chance to get close to Gu Feng. In addition, she didn't have many familiar friends, so she had to go alone along the way. As for Xiao Jiu, she was left in Tianyun Gate, and her qualifications to enter the cave were limited, and they would not agree to add a little demon who could not transform into a shape.
This walk is half a month, and the sky is gradually getting colder. In addition to the seasonal influence, there is also a lot to do with their location. During this time, they continued to rush to high places, and the altitude probably exceeded the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
These disciples selected this time, except for the elders who led the team, were all Qi refining disciples. At first, they were able to persevere, but slowly they became a little exhausted. At this time, he also saw the strength and weakness of the crowd. The high cultivation is still barely holding on, and the low cultivation is already trembling, and he can't take a step.
In comparison, Nie Chen's state is still the best one. Her cultivation can be said to be at the bottom of the crowd, but her body is a lotus plant, and she already has a strong ability to resist cold. Coupled with the black mud infection and mutation, he is even more afraid of cold and heat, and a little low temperature is simply helpless.
The busiest is Gu Feng. Not only did he need to control the entire team's journey, but he also needed to take care of some of his disciples who had fallen ill. As for the elders they led the team, they were already too busy to touch the ground, and they didn't care about the front and back.
Fortunately, the situation did not last long before there was a turnaround. On the third day of their entry into the plateau, a pitch-black mountain peak appeared in front of them. On the top of the mountain, there seemed to be a flame beating, emitting an endless scorching breath. As they approached, the temperature gradually increased, and everyone gradually recovered from the ice.
Before coming to the peak, Gu Feng stopped his steps and looked at the people behind him: "Junior brothers and sisters, this is our destination, where the entrance to the Purple Cloud Cave Heaven is. This entrance opens once in March, and it has been more than two months since the last time it was opened, so we still have to wait for a while.
During this time, I hope that everyone will cultivate well and try to improve their cultivation. Only when your own strength goes up, can you have more gains in the cave.
Of course, the junior disciples of the tenth level of Qi refining Great Perfection should not choose to break through for the time being. Otherwise, you will be rejected by the cave, and you will not be able to enter. ”
The monks agreed, and then set up a number of small gathering places in their respective sects. Tianyunmen was no exception, setting up camp near the mountain peaks and arranging for disciples to prepare food and water. Most of them are in the realm of refining qi, and they have to eat or drink.
Nie Chen's body is a lotus plant, and he doesn't need to eat food, but the water source is indispensable. The mountain was so hot that there was no water source at all, so she had to search for a place to stay in the distance.
"Senior Sister Nie, where are you going?" Just a few steps away, a clear male voice sounded behind him, and Nie Chen looked back to see that it was the male cultivator named Dashan.
Nie Chen nodded, shouted Senior Brother, and explained two sentences simply. Dashan nodded, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "What a coincidence, I also have to find a water source, let's go together!"
"This, junior sister, I can go by myself, how dare I bother senior brother. Nie Chen excused himself.
Dashan laughed: "You and I are in the same door, why be so polite." Could it be that in the heart of the senior sister, do you have any opinions about the senior brother?"
Nie Chen's eyes flashed, and he smiled at the mountain: "Of course not, since senior brother wants to be together, then let's go together." ”
The two searched side by side, heading into the distance. Behind the two of them, Jiang Yan's eyes were cold, and there was a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
After walking for several miles, at the foot of a mountain, the two found a small pool. Nie Chen glanced at it, he was very satisfied with this, and turned his head to look at the mountain: "Senior brother, aren't you looking for a water source, this pool of water is good!"
"yes, that's good. As your burial place, it is indeed a good place. Dashan's gaze grew cold.
Nie Chen grinned: "Senior brother is really joking. ”
"Are you kidding?" Dashan snorted coldly, and pointed at the long sword in his hand, "Nie Chen, today is your death date, what other last words do you have, just say it!"
"Are you really going to kill me?" Nie Chen blinked, his eyes showing curiosity, "Then before you kill me, can you tell me why." Judging by the appearance of you and that junior sister, it doesn't seem like you're a couple, right?"
"When you see Hades, go and ask him. Dashan didn't want to say more, and with a wave of the long sword in his hand, he slashed straight towards Nie Chen.
Nie Chen chuckled, shook his body backwards, and directly entered Tan Shui. After a flash, it sank directly into the pool. Dashan frowned, and was about to follow the pursuit, but found that the water was empty, and there was no trace of Nie Chen.
"What's going on?" looked at the pool, and the mountain's face was cloudy. If you kill someone just like that, even if someone suspects you when you go back, you can find a way to prevaricate the past. But once Nie Chen doesn't die and goes back to announce his affairs, it won't be easy to explain.
Thinking of this, Dashan gritted his teeth and plunged directly into the water. He has no way out now, and he must kill Nie Chen as soon as possible.
While the mountain was searching in the water, Nie Chen had already gone ashore from the other exit and walked towards the way he came. Others didn't know when the cave was opened, but she had already gotten first-hand information from Gu Feng. And know the entrance to the cave, on top of a mountain that looks like a volcano.
This pool of water is the place Nie Chen found for himself. There's no way, who made her body special, not resistant to high temperatures.
Before Dashan invited Tonglu, she sensed that something was wrong. But after all, he was a fellow senior brother, and before she tore her face, she couldn't refuse strongly, which led him here. Nie Chen's body is a lotus, and she has an absolute advantage in the water, even if she really does it, she is not afraid.
It's just that I didn't expect that there was a gap at the bottom of this pool of water connecting to the outside. Nie Chen was overjoyed when he found out, and only then did he enter the water and turn into his body and escape.
Seeing that he was about to return to the place where the cultivators gathered, Nie Chen brewed his emotions for a moment, and then ran back crying.
"Woo woo woo・・・・・・ help, it's murder!"
Hearing the shout, everyone was startled and looked at the place where the voice came from. Xu Zun was the first to run out and greet Nie Chen, but one person was faster than him, and his figure flashed in front of Nie Chen.
"What's wrong?" Gu Feng asked with a frown.
"It's Senior Brother Dashan, he wants to kill me!" Nie Chen wiped his tears with a panicked and helpless expression.
Xu Zun had already arrived, and when he heard Nie Chen's words, his face couldn't help but sink: "Where is the mountain man, where is he?"
"At the back of a waterhole. Nie Chen pointed in the direction of the mountain.
"Hmph! thrasher!" Xu Zun snorted coldly, his figure flashed, and he went straight in that direction.
