Chapter Seventy-Eight: A Hidden Place (3)
Zhong Qi also smiled, he was laughing at Liu Yun.
Liu Yun couldn't laugh anymore.
Zhong Qi said with a smile while drinking: "I didn't think you would choke in front of an ordinary man, right?"
Liu Yun said angrily: "Be careful not to choke on wine." ”
Zhong Qi was still laughing and said, "I don't want to laugh either, but I really can't help it." After speaking, a mouthful of wine in his mouth was squirted out with a "poof", if Liu Yun hadn't dodged quickly, he would have almost been sprayed.
Liu Yun smiled and said, "I say, you see the retribution is coming." ”
The tiredness of so many days has also been diluted a lot in this burst of laughter. The two happily swept away the food and wine on the stone table.
Dahan seemed to have been waiting on the side, and as soon as Liu Yun and the others finished eating, they immediately brought two people, cleaned up the dishes on the table, and then left without saying a word.
Liu Yun and the others were taken to a small attic, and a young man who looked elegant was in charge of receiving them.
The young man introduced himself: "I am only talented in Xia, not that I am very literate in Xia, in fact, I am just a poor scholar." ”
Zhong Qi was amused by his words and said, "Your name is not the name of a poor scholar. ”
Wen Cai said: "The one who can take it is the name given to me by this parent." ”
Liu Yundao: "Your Excellency won't come to talk to us about family life, right?"
Wen Cai said: "I came here this time to introduce the situation here to the two of you. ”
Liu Yun said: "Please speak." ”
"The Valley of Habitat is not the same as the legends in the outside world, and it is really a paradise for some people. But for some people, it's hard. ”
Liu Yundao: "Why are there such different views?"
Wen Cai said: "The valley lord does not allow everyone to use force in the valley, this is their paradise for people who are tired of fighting and killing in the rivers and lakes and want to live in seclusion." ”
Liu Yun said: "For those who want to fight and kill every day, but are chased and killed by the enemy, there is nowhere to go, and they have to hide here, it is very difficult, because they are all scars and forget the pain, and when the injuries on their bodies are healed, they want to go out and live that kind of life of fighting and killing." ”
Wen Cai said: "Liu Daxia is really thorough, draw inferences from one another!"
Liu Yundao: "In fact, most people in the rivers and lakes are like this, and it is not surprising that I can guess it." ”
Wen Cai laughed twice.
Liu Yun said: "I heard that when you enter Qiyin Valley, you can't go out even if you die, is this true?"
Wen Cai shook his head and said, "That's not the case, in fact, it's okay to get out of the valley." ”
Liu Yundao: "Or is it okay?"
Wen Cai said: "People who are tired of fighting and killing in the rivers and lakes, if they want to go out of the valley to meet relatives and friends or something, they can go out of the valley." ”
Liu Yundao: "There are no conditions?"
Wen Cai said: "Of course not. ”
Liu Yun asked again: "If it's those who want to go back and live that kind of life again, can they come out of the valley?"
Wen Cai said: "It's okay." ”
Liu Yundao: "There are no conditions?"
Wen Cai said: "Of course there are conditions, and the conditions are still very harsh!"
Liu Yundao: "How harsh?"
Wen Cai said: "It can be said that life is exchanged for life!"
When Zhong Qi heard this, he also put down the wine jug in his hand and asked, "How to change the method?"
Wen Cai said: "The valley lord said, this is a place to avoid the hustle and bustle of the world, no matter who comes here, the valley lord is welcome, no matter whether he was a heinous villain or a famous man all over the world, no matter who it is, as long as he comes here, he must abide by the rules here, and whoever violates the rules here will be severely punished." ”
Zhong Qi said: "There are no rules, there is no circle, and there is nothing wrong with doing this." ”
Wen Cai said again: "The valley lord said that this is a place of refuge, but it is not a place of refuge, if someone just wants to come here to escape the disaster, it is not allowed to leave easily after the fact." After all, when they were contained in the first place, Qiyin Valley would also offend others, so it would also cause a lot of trouble. Therefore, if these people want to re-enter the rivers and lakes to live that kind of day calling for wind and rain, they have to do one thing for Qiyin Valley. ”
Liu Yun said: "Presumably this matter is not very easy, right?"
Wen Cai said: "It's very difficult!"
Liu Yundao: "How difficult is it?"
Wen Cai said: "Let him do something almost impossible, if you want to do this well, it can be said that you will die in nine deaths!"
Liu Yundao: "So dangerous?"
Wen Cai said: "Their lives were originally saved by the valley master, and it is natural for the valley to risk their lives to do something." ”
This valley owner's thinking of doing things for others seems to be different from others, and as much he gives, others will give him back, which is so incompatible with his original intention of founding Qiyin Valley. What kind of person is this, and why is his idea so different?
Wen Cai continued: "If you want to get out, you have to exchange other people's lives for your own. The valley lord gave them a month to kill a person, and if they did, the valley lord would send someone to bring them an antidote. ”
Liu Yun frowned and said, "Everyone will let them take poison in advance when they go out of the valley, and then give them detoxification after the task is completed?" He was already interested in this valley master in his heart.
Wen Cai explained: "Only people who want to go out again will poison them, and this poison will attack after a month, as long as they can take the antidote in time, they will be fine." ”
Liu Yun said: "Those who didn't take poison when they went out, aren't you afraid that they won't come back?"
Wen Cai said: "The valley master said that we must be honest in life, if we can't even do this, it means that he is not a human at all!
Liu Yun said: "Who are the people you Gu wants them to kill?"
Wen Cai said: "Of course they are the people who should be killed, and the martial arts of these people who should be killed are definitely higher than him." If he was a third-rate master, he would be asked to kill a damn second-rate master, and so on. ”
Zhong Qi shouted, "Isn't this telling them to die?"
Wen Cai said: "Didn't I say just now that this will be a matter of nine deaths!"
Liu Yun said: "Your valley master is really interesting, I don't know when we will be able to meet him?"
Wen Cai said: "Our valley master has never seen outsiders. ”
Liu Yun said: "Outsiders, aren't we still from Qiyin Valley?"
Wen Cai said: "Maybe it's my expression that is inaccurate, I mean that except for the person who the valley master wants to see, he doesn't want to see anyone else." ”
Liu Yundao: "Can you see your valley master?"
Wen Cai said: "I'm not an exception. ”
Liu Yundao: "What if you want to find the valley master?"
Wen Cai said: "Just find us, and we will convey your affairs to him." ”
Liu Yun didn't know what else to ask now.
Seeing that Liu Yun and they didn't seem to have anything to ask, Wen Cai said goodbye and left.
Zhong Qi looked at Liu Yun and said, "Do you think it's safe here? Will they send someone to spy on us?"
Liu Yun shook his head and said, "This valley master's thoughts are different from ordinary people, he should disdain to do this kind of thing." ”
Zhong Qi said: "According to what Wencai said, as long as you are willing, you can come to the Hidden Valley, but what do these people live on? What do they do?"
Liu Yun said: "We can only investigate these things slowly in Qiyin Valley, but we must not be discovered by them." ”
Zhong Qi said, "You mean to let them know that we will be in danger?"
Liu Yundao: "After all, what we want to know are other people's secrets, and it makes sense if he doesn't want us to know." ”
……
Liu Yun woke up in a burst of birdsong, he hadn't slept so comfortably for a long time, Liu Yun was this kind of strange person, where many people could sleep, he couldn't sleep, many people felt that there was a dangerous place, but he slept more soundly than others.
Opening the window, there was a blooming flower in the eye, and the overflowing fragrance of flowers hit with the wind, Liu Yun took a deep breath, which was really refreshing.
Industrious bees are busy collecting nectar among the flowers.
"Are you awake too?" asked Zhong Qi.
Liu Yun said: "In such a place, even if you want to sleep lazily, you will be woken up by the early birds. ”
Zhong Qi said: "Only here can I really feel quiet and peaceful, I can't remember how long such days have happened before." ”
Liu Yun said: "Those who step into the rivers and lakes have lost the right to enjoy this kind of life, and only here can it be possible to find the peace and tranquility that once was, away from the endless bloody killing and fighting." ”
Zhong Qi sighed: "Yes!"
Liu Yundao: "It stands to reason that this mysterious valley lord should already be a worldly master who is beyond the world, broad-minded, full of benevolence, and does not eat the fireworks of the world. But why does he hate the people in the rivers and lakes so much, and at the same time give them such a place to avoid the rivers and lakes?"
Zhong Qi said: "Do you think this valley master will be an old monster?"
Liu Yundao: "Why is it an old monster and not a little monster?"
Zhong Qi said: "Have you ever seen that young man have such strange thoughts? Those who have this kind of thinking are those people in their seventies and eighties, because they have gone through too many things, and have suffered such and such blows to a greater or lesser extent, they may suddenly encounter a blow that they can't bear, resulting in a great change in temperament, and doing these things that ordinary people can't do." ”
Liu Yun circled around Zhongqi twice, and his eyes kept looking at him.
Zhong Qi was looked at by Liu Yun and asked, "Why do you look at me like this?"
Liu Yundao: "Are you Zhong Qi?"
Zhong Qi said: "Your wine hasn't woken up yet?
Liu Yundao: "The Zhong Qi I know will think so much about everything, just do it, but today you think so much, unlike the Zhong Qi I know." ”
Zhong Qi said: "I was just too lazy to think about it before. ”
Liu Yun said: "Say you're fat, and you're still panting." ”
Zhong Qi said seriously: "What I said is the truth. After speaking, he dodged to the side, let Liu Yun's punch miss, and said with a smile: "I know what you are going to do." ”
"It seems that the two heroes are in a good mood. It was Wen Cai who spoke, he seemed to suddenly appear among the flowers, and it seemed that he had been standing there all along, and he had never left at all, but Liu Yun and the others didn't notice.
Of course, it is impossible for them not to see such a big person Liu Yun, but how he appeared, Liu Yun and they really didn't see it.
Zhong Qi said, "How did you get here?"
Wen Cai smiled and said, "Of course I came over." ”
Zhong Qi said: "Why didn't I see you coming over?"
Wen Cai said: "Zhong Daxia is joking, can I still fly over?"
Zhong Qi smiled and didn't say anything more.
Liu Yundao: "I don't know why Mr. Wen came this time?"
Wen Cai patted his head and said, "I almost forgot about business, and the valley lord asked me to take the two of you around the valley." ”
Liu Yun said: "Go around the valley, aren't you afraid that there are any secrets that will be discovered by us?"
Wen Cai smiled and said: "Liu Daxia said that he laughed, there is nothing in the valley that the two of you can't know, the valley lord has ordered, you two can go wherever you want, if you want to know anything, just ask me." ”
Liu Yun said: "Can you tell me everything?"
Wen Cai said: "Knowing everything is endless!"
It took a day, and Liu Yun and the others finally turned around Qiyin Valley.
Back in Xiaolou, Zhong Qi fell directly on the bed, this day made him tired enough, more tired than a day of fighting with people, what he didn't like to do was this kind of thing, so he felt very tired.
Where are the people, where is the exit out of the valley, where is the place to eat, drink and be merry...... Every place in the valley, whether they wanted to know or not, was told to him, and there was no telling them of the place where the valley lord lived, except for one place.
Liu Yun also met the big villain Cheng Zhongyuan in the valley, he seems to be living very well here, he no longer has the fierce spirit outside, but is holding a hoe to hoe the ground, looking at him is still very happy. If Liu Yun hadn't known him before, he would definitely treat him as an ordinary peasant. When Liu Yun greeted him, his eyes were no longer the panic when he saw Liu Yun outside, and he looked very calm and happy, very happy to meet his old friends.
Not only Cheng Zhongyuan, Liu Yun also saw a few powerful characters outside, most of them seemed to enjoy the life here, even if there were one or two people who were unwilling, seeing Liu Yun, their eyes faintly showed envy, but they were all very secretive, just for that moment, if Liu Yun was not careful, he wouldn't have seen it at all.
