Chapter 815: First Entry into Xuanzhong Mountain
What did you find?" In the past few days, Dong Xun has asked the same question more than a hundred times, but the other party's answers are "I can't tell you clearly", "You will understand when you go there" and so on, which made Dong Xun, who was curious, itchy and helpless, so he had to ask again and again.
This time when he came back, Ziyu was also out of the way, although he was subject to Jiang Ning and Dong Xun before, and did a lot of things that he didn't want to do, and he felt very uncomfortable, but this time, he clearly betrayed them first, but he didn't expect that those two people actually took the initiative to save themselves regardless of their previous suspicions.
He is not a very bad person, except for the fear of death, he does not have too many shortcomings, and, in his own opinion, the fear of death is not a defect, after all, there are very few people in this world who are not afraid of death, since they are not afraid of death, then why are they still alive?
However, after escaping alone, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Ziyu asked himself, is he really bad enough to be so bad? In order to save his own life, he brought huge losses to the tribe, not to mention, betrayed Jiang Ning and Dong Xun, and was saved by others in turn, but he didn't say anything at all, he didn't even say a word of thanks, and just walked away with peace of mind, is it his own style?
Ziyu thinks that this is not the case.
He was afraid of death, but he wasn't bad enough to do that.
However, when it comes to repayment, he is now alone, and he has nothing to help Jiang Ning and Dong Xun except for the medicine that strengthens his body.
Especially right now, Jiang Ning absorbed the power of a second-order demon beast with the help of the Purple Heart Worm, and obtained his first natal star, coupled with his outstanding swordsmanship, he already has the capital to compete with the two patriarchs of Lishan and Chiyuan, even if he can't be defeated, to this day, it is impossible for those two people to catch him at this time, and his little useless medicinal powder is now insignificant to those two people, and it can't arouse Jiang Ning's interest.
Because he felt that his value was not enough, Ziyu went all the way south, stopping and stopping, and seemed very hesitant.
In the end, he finally felt that the current self was just a burden to those two people, and it was already benevolent and righteous for others to save him from the hands of the Lishan tribe, and there was still extra thought to take care of his useless heart of repaying his kindness? Therefore, after thinking about it, he still continued to go south in a bit of frustration, not wanting to drag Jiang Ning and Dong Xun down anymore.
All the way to the south, after the south of the little people to the Bashui, and then go south, hungry to find some wild fruits to hunt some game, thirsty in the forest to find water to drink, just like all the way to the wind and sleep, and walked for nearly half a month, I don't know where I went, but coincidentally, he met the patriarch of the Lishan tribe - Lishan.
It's just that this time, the distance between them is relatively far, and the other party has not been able to discover him because Hai Dongqing, who has been following him, was killed by Jiang Ning in the previous battle.
The dignified patriarch of the Lishan tribe, whose identity is there, doesn't need to run out to hunt in person at all, let alone run so far, and he doesn't even have a person with him.
A tribal patriarch, within a month, ran alone twice in a row to a place hundreds of miles away from the tribe, no matter how you look at it, it looks very suspicious.
After all, he had grown up in the Chi Abyss tribe since he was a child, and their patriarch, Chi Yuan, would not even take half a step out of his Red Stone Fort for most of the year if there was nothing special, let alone leave the tribe alone and go to a place one or two hundred miles away from the tribe.
Due to the strength of Na Li Shan himself and the fact that his perception range is not small, Zi Yu did not dare to follow too closely, but just used the medicinal powder that enhanced his eyesight, and with the help of the cover of the dense forest, he hung far behind, observing Li Shan's every move.
This time there was a mental calculation or not, and Kuriyama failed to find him again after all.
The rainforest stretched endlessly with the trend of the mountains, and the two of them walked in front and the other followed, and after half a day, they finally came to a place full of disobedience for Ziyu.
The rainforest, with its mountains, plains, rivers, valleys, lakes, swamps, and terrain is extremely complex and varied, but everywhere you go, the environment is very humid and hot, and the vegetation is dense with animals and insects.
However, when Kuriyama stopped his steps, what appeared in front of Ziyu was a bare depression with only a piece of broken stones scattered messily on the ground.
In this depression, let alone a tree, even a living grass, a green leaf, Ziyu has not seen it.
Such a vibrant rainforest, but such a lifeless depression, is also a very unexpected thing for Ziyu, and it makes him feel weird.
What made him even more incomprehensible was why the patriarch of the dignified Lishan tribe, Lishan, sneakily ran to such a place where birds don't.
Ziyu knew that if he let Li Shan see him again, he would definitely kill him without hesitation, so of course he couldn't go up and ask people why you came here, so he could only patiently follow behind until he reached the edge of the depression, because there were broken stones everywhere, as long as he walked, he would make a clicking sound, and there were no plants to hide his body, so he had to stop and didn't dare to continue to follow. On the contrary, he was very clever enough to go around the mouth of the depression and come to the other side of the depression, so that no matter what Nariyama had come here for, when he came out of it and was about to go back, he would not collide with him head-on.
In this way, Ziyu waited outside the depression for a whole day, and waited until the evening of the second day, when Lishan came out of the depths of the pile of rocks, and went north as he thought, and returned to the Lishan tribe.
Ziyu hid in the forest, and after Lishan left, he still didn't come out, but turned around and returned to the forest to look for food to satisfy his stomach, found a place to rest peacefully for a night, and waited until the early morning of the second day, hid in the forest, made sure that Lishan was really gone, and didn't think of anything halfway and ran back, so he carefully stepped on the gravel under his feet and entered the depression.
The depression is not too big or small, that is, the area of a medium-sized lake, but if you stand on the periphery, no matter how you look inside, you can only see a blurry image, and the focus of your eyes can fall at most seven or eight feet after entering the depression.
Therefore, before, before, even Ziyu, who had been watching outside the depression for a day, did not know what was inside.
However, since this depression was able to cover up the specific situation inside in a way that he did not know, so that the line of sight could not penetrate, and the fact that such a tribal leader as Lishan had come here twice in a short period of time was enough to show that this place was extraordinary.
People often act in favor of profit and avoid disadvantage, and the owner of a tribe in Lishan would come and go with the tribe and here so frequently, in Ziyu's understanding, it is naturally because there is some kind of factor that makes him have to come, and this factor, nine times out of ten, can make Lishan himself benefit.
His heart was beating wildly involuntarily, if he could find any opportunities in it, maybe he could soar into the sky from now on, not to mention anything else, if he could reach the current strength of the patriarch of the Lishan tribe or the Chiyuan tribe, or just be able to get a natal star of his own, then he wouldn't have to be so cowering and live alone.
However, the reality will always be a little skinny than we think.
After entering the depths of the depression, there was still a white gravel, except for the gravel, it was still rubble, and at a glance, there was nothing at all.
Fortunately, Yu was smart, and he immediately realized that even if he walked into this depression, the restrictions on his line of sight were only slightly relaxed, and it was not the kind of situation where he could see the end at a glance for dozens of miles, and the scene at the edge of his line of sight that he saw at that time was just a visual illusion extended from the things he saw under the action of a certain force, and the real scene outside ten or twenty zhang may be very different from the scene he sees when he is standing here.
Therefore, although there were some doubts in his heart, he still patiently walked towards the depths of the depression.
The hard work paid off, and after walking for nearly half a day, he finally came to the center of the depression.
In front of him was a huge fortress made of white rubble everywhere underground, and as he got closer, a woman's voice even spread from the fortress, as if she were talking about something.
Ziyu controlled his steps, trying not to make any sound under his feet, and walked in cautiously, only to hear clearly, the women inside, smiling and talking, were just boring words such as "the patriarch's health is really good," "when will the patriarch come again", "the patriarch will bring us something good next time".
Hearing that, Yu Zhen rolled his eyes for a while.
Well, your Lishan tribe always brags day after day how dedicated his patriarch is, not in love with beauty, how loving and dedicated to his wife is, every time the two sides confront each other, there are always people in the Lishan tribe who talk about the inappropriate private life of the patriarch of the Chiyuan tribe, but I didn't expect that it turned out to be a hypocritical guy, who ran to such a far away place to hide Jiaojiao in the golden house, and such a big fortress, obviously there are a lot of women hidden by him.
If you really want to count it, maybe there are more women in the Kuriyama than the Akayuan Patriarch.
Of course, in addition to disdain, Ziyu's heart was more disappointed at that time.
Without him, I originally thought that I could find some opportunities for cultivation and promotion, but I didn't expect that this was just a place where the golden house was hidden, and those inside were all women from Lishan, and he didn't dare to touch it, and whether there were any guards from the Lishan tribe in it didn't say, if he really went in and did something, and was found out by Lishan, then I am afraid that he would chase himself to the ends of the earth, after all, not for the dignity of men, just to keep such a secret, it will definitely give Lishan enough reasons to kill him.
Therefore, he was disheartened and immediately prepared to leave.
He was halfway back, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw that beside the white stone fortress, there was a narrow, stairway that went down to the ground.
Ziyu immediately stopped.
Why is it necessary to build such a passage to the underground?
If it is to store the materials that these women need for their lives, there is no need to make the opening so small, after all, if it is to store things, such a narrow passage is very inconvenient, and it is not easy to take a slightly larger object.
However, if he is not for storing supplies, then building such a passage to the underground means that there must be other secrets hidden underground.
As soon as he thought of this, the flame that had been extinguished in Ziyu's heart immediately burned again.
He walked to the entrance of the passage, and wanted to go down to have a look, but he didn't expect that the passage, which seemed to be uncut off and was exposed outside, was as if he had stepped on the flat ground.
Ziyu immediately realized that this passage had been sealed with some kind of force.
Fortunately, although he couldn't break the kind of seals and formations from another dimension that Jiang Ning mastered, he was very proficient in the sealing techniques that originally belonged to this world, at least the simple sealing techniques mastered by Lishan Buluo and the Chiyuan tribe, and it was precisely because of this that Chiyuan would arrange a person whose strength was just ordinary in the assassin team.
Although those women were active in the castle room during the day and rarely came out, Ziyu was still worried that he would accidentally make any noise, or that the people inside would run out on a whim and ruin his own affairs, so he chose to quit first, and waited until the night was dark and the women in the castle were asleep, and then he secretly returned, used the medicine powder with his ability, successfully broke the seal of the passage entrance, and walked in.
As for what happened next, he didn't really see much.
Facing Dong Xun's persistent questioning, Ziyu shook his head a little helplessly, and said: "Because it passed at night, and the passage led to the underground, although I prepared torches in advance, the range that I could see was still very limited, so, in fact, I just saw a ladder leading to a cave or the inside of the underground palace, the ladder was suspended above the abyss, there were no guardrails on both sides, and if I moved a little, the wooden ladder would shake, and it would be easy to fall......" Ziyu's face looked a little embarrassed, but he still insisted: "There must be something good hidden there, otherwise, then Lishan would not have used the Golden House Zangjiao as a cover, and frequently traveled back and forth with the Lishan tribe and Baishi Castle." β
Dong Xun glanced at Ziyu with disdain, and said angrily: "Just because you were afraid of falling, didn't you go in?"
Ziyu Lao's face turned red, and he immediately retorted: "I know that you look down on me and are afraid of death, but if the ladder is really just because it will shake and there is no protection on both sides, I won't even dare to go in and take a look." β
"Inside, is there anything else that can't be done?" Jiang Ning said.
Ziyu thought for a moment, and then said solemnly: "In addition, the cave... Well... Gravity is also different from the outside. β
"Isn't the gravity below so much stronger that you can't bear it?" Dong Xun said, if this is the case, then he really can't go in, because if the gravity is very strong, even if his body can withstand it for a while, but after a long time, the muscles of his legs will be strained, and the organs in his body will be damaged.
In this case, it is obviously better to come back and tell Jiang Ning about the matter.
After all, after entering the Star Realm, the flesh has been further tempered by star power, and the natal stars are blessed, and there should be no problem to withstand that strength of gravity.
Everyone is in the Star Realm, since the body of the patriarch of the Lishan tribe can bear it, there is no reason why Jiang Ning can't bear it.
"No," Ziyu said with a somewhat complicated face: "If it's really just a little more gravity, then I'll walk in a little bit, if it doesn't feel good, it's still okay to quit again, but in fact, it's not that simple at all." β
"Oh?" Jiang Ning's face also showed a look of interest at this time.
Ziyu continued: " The gravity on the wooden bridge does not seem to be fixed, but has been constantly changing, and, without taking a step or two, there will be a relatively large change in gravity, I have tried, even if you stand on the wooden bridge and do not move, the gravity will continue to change, which leads to the fact that whether you move or not, or even whether there is anyone on the wooden bridge, it is shaking up and down all the time, I just stepped on it for the first time, and almost fell off the wooden bridge, and after trying a few times, I couldn't grasp the balance at all, so I really don't know how the Kuriyama patriarch passed the wooden bridgeγ β
Jiang Ning was about to speak, his hands were clasped in his arms, and Dong Xun, who was leaning on the trunk of a big tree, had already taken the lead in speaking: "So, what do you want to do when you call the two of us outside this Lishan tribe today?"
"Stalking him one more time, of course. Ziyu said
Dong Xun rolled his eyes and said, "Since we all know where the passage is, what are we doing to follow him, wouldn't it be better to go directly before he goes to the White Stone Castle next time?"
Jiang Ning smiled: "Only by following him can you know how he did it!"
Dong Xun said: "Aren't you able to fly with a sword?"
Jiang Ning smiled, shifted his gaze to Ziyu's body, and said, "If we can really fly in there, Ziyu won't let us wait here, right?"
Ziyu smiled and nodded.
