578 The Valley of Sorrow

Sure enough, nine mountain peaks stood tall.

At first glance, it is Jiufeng Mountain.

The nine peaks are shrouded in mist and look a bit mysterious.

Yuan Shuyu spoke, "Erlong, approach those nine peaks." ”

"Yes, sir. ”

Diao Erlong turned in response, turned to the north, and went straight to Jiufeng Mountain.

It looks like it's close at hand, but it's still far away.

The car walked for about an hour before it reached the bottom of the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain is a barren meadow, which has already withered and yellowed because it is winter.

The meadow connects into a valley surrounded by nine mountain peaks.

After looking at it, Yuan Shuyu continued, "Drive in." ”

The car quickly drove into the valley.

Turning a corner, everyone was stunned.

Is there still a barren and cold Kunlun Mountain in front of you?

In front of you is a large meadow of lush greenery.

There are also some tall trees scattered around, which look decades or even hundreds of years old.

On the meadows, there are also quite a few animals.

Yuan Shuyu saw a hare and a vole sticking his head out.

There are also insects that flutter over the meadows.

It's really grass and warblers flying, and flowers are blooming.

The temperature here is at least 30 degrees warmer than outside.

It's about minus 10 degrees outside, and the temperature here is at least minus 20 degrees.

Ao Xiang spoke, "There's geothermal underground. ”

Yuan Shuyu nodded.

This meadow is not small. It looks like it's at least a few square kilometers in circumference.

Surrounded by nine mountain peaks, it is like a paradise.

Yuan Shuyu spoke, "Erlong, look around this meadow and see if there is any place to go up the mountain." ”

"Yes, sir. ”

Diao Erlong drove the car, walking slowly along the edge of the meadow and the other side against the edge of Jiufeng Mountain.

To everyone's surprise, the car walked to the center of the meadow and found a house with herds of cattle and sheep.

The house is adobe and looks a little dilapidated.

Cattle are the most common yaks in the plateau, and sheep are common sheep.

There are also some chickens, all of which are the most common local chickens.

Yuan Shuyu and Ao Xiang glanced at each other, and Yuan Shuyu spoke, "Erlong, park the car in front of that house, let's go and have a look." There should be someone inside. ”

As soon as the car stopped, several people got out of the car and saw an old man walking out of the house.

The old man was in his sixties, with a gray beard and hair.

Some are thin and rickety.

The main thing is that there is some sadness on the face.

It seems that although he has so many cows, sheep, and chickens, he is not happy at all.

Seeing Yuan Shuyu, the old man showed a smile, "You guys came to play and broke in by mistake, right?"

Yuan Shuyu nodded, "Yes." ”

The old man spoke, "My name is Guan Gu, you can call me Uncle Guan." ”

Yuan Shuyu hurriedly said, "Uncle Guan, my name is Yuan Shuyu, this is my brother, his name is Yuan Shuming, his name is Yuan Cuo, and he is a slave of my family. His name is Diao Erlong, and she is called Shen Qingjuan. ”

Ao Wrong, Ao Xiang was a little surprised, I don't know, why Yuan Shuyu hid their names, but he didn't raise any objections.

And Diao Erlong showed a knowing smile.

There may be a sect here, and this old man's appearance here is indeed a little too weird.

Therefore, it is better to conceal the surname "Ao".

is also Ao Xiang's fault, Ao Xiang's living environment is relatively simple and direct, and he doesn't understand Yuan Shuyu's considerations.

Not only Diao Erlong, but even Shen Qingjuan quickly figured out the joints.

Several people hurriedly greeted Guan Gu, "Uncle Guan......"

Guan Gu hurriedly said, "It's time for dinner, you go into the house, I'll cook some food for you, have a meal, stay for one night and then leave." ”

Yuan Shuyu nodded, "Thank you, Uncle Guan." Yuan Cuo, Diao Erlong, you go to help Uncle Guan. ”

"Yes, sir. Yuan wrong, Diao Erlong said in unison.

Guan Gu didn't seem to be surprised at all by Ao Cuo and Diao Erlong's title of Yuan Shuyu.

Guan Gu brought Yuan Shuyu and the others into the house and went to prepare dinner.

The rooms are large, but the furniture is shabby and looks like it's been used for decades.

The wooden furniture, although worn, is shiny with oil, and it looks like it is often wiped down.

Soon, dinner was ready, with finger lamb, roast leg of lamb, chunks of pot helmets, and mutton soup.

It's not very elaborate food, but it's practical.

Yuan Shuyu and the others began to eat.

And Guan Gu ate a little meat, ate a piece of pot, and drank some mutton soup and stopped eating.

He smoked a pipe on the side. The sorrow on his countenance deepened.

When everyone saw such an old man, they all had some sympathy. I don't know, how could this old man live here alone.

I don't know, how can he be so unhappy when he has so many cattle and sheep.

You must know that with so many cattle and sheep, it is possible for the elderly to have a net worth of at least millions, or even tens of millions.

Placed on the outside, it is definitely a rich party.

Ao Xiang looked at the old man with a hint of sympathy, "Uncle Guan, what is the matter with you, why are you so worried." Speak up, and maybe we can help you. ”

The old man shook his head, "Evil, they are evil." ”

For the old man's words, everyone was a little confused.

Yuan Shuyu and Ao Xiang glanced at each other.

Then the old man fell silent again, smoking his pipe.

Everyone continued to eat, and the atmosphere became a little depressing.

After eating, Diao Erlong and Ao Cuo consciously cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and went to clean the dishes and chopsticks.

The crowd sat around.

Ao Xiang spoke again, "Uncle Guan, what do you mean by creating evil?"

Guan Gu looked at Ao Xiang, "You're not an ordinary person, aren't you?" I can't feel your strength, but I feel that you are very powerful. I think it's the best of you. ”

Ao Xiang nodded, and did not hide it, "I am the late stage of Jindan." ”

Guan Gu nodded, "Sure enough." ”

Yuan Shuyu smiled and said, "I am the consummation realm of the foundation building period. ”

Guan Gu nodded, "I knew you weren't ordinary people. So what are you doing here at Jiufengmen? Visiting friends, curious, and playing?"

Yuan Shuyu spoke, "Don't hide it from Uncle Guan, we heard that a five-clawed golden dragon appeared here a few decades ago, so let's investigate." I hope to be able to see the five-clawed golden dragon. ”

Guan Gu's face became even more sad, "It's a sin, it's really a sin." ”

Yuan Shuyu and Ao Xiang glanced at each other. This was the second time they had heard Guan Gu say the word "iniquity."

I don't know what kind of grievances this old man has and what kind of treatment he has received, so he would say this.

The old man glanced at Yuan Shuyu and Ao Xiang, "That is to say, you want to know the news of Shenlong? That is, you are not friends of Jiufengmen?"

The two nodded.

The old man sighed, "Then, I'll tell you about the dragon." ”
