Chapter 27: First Encounter with Cold Peak
The fresh air permeates the morning field, and the vicissitudes of the night are washed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoA flock of wild geese soaring in the dawn swept over the mountains, paddling through the silence of the morning, flapping their wings and flying into the distance where the same mountains undulated. The rising sun shines comfortably, and the vast mountains and fields are peacefully bathed in the first rays of sunlight.
After walking for a long time, the two finally entered the depths of the Lin Mo Mountain Range. In this process, Chen Feng not only listened to Feng Yuan tell a lot of anecdotes, anecdotes, and nearby customs, but also knew that Feng Yuan's age was not as old as his appearance, only thirty-one years old, but he had been out for many years. Because Feng Yuan had been poisoned by corpses and was not treated in time, he became the ugly and old man he is now.
In the evening, the two came to a village not far from the treasure spot, not far from the rocky pass. The two of them began to ask people in several nearby villages about some strange gossip and strange things in the neighborhood, and they did hear some of them.
According to the villagers, to the south of the village, there is a very mysterious col. This col is shrouded in a thick white mist all year round, and you can't see your fingers, even on a sunny day. Because the ground of this col is full of scattered rubble, it is called a rocky col.
It stands to reason that it is normal for the Lin Mo Mountain Range, even if there is some mountain fog on the periphery, but a place like this, which is dense and shrouded in mountain fog all year round, is a little too incredible.
As a result, some of the more courageous villagers ventured into it a few times. But the strange thing is that every time someone goes in, they will unconsciously lose their way, and they will often be trapped for a day or two, until they are so hungry that they will inexplicably walk out of the col.
As time went by, the villagers still couldn't unravel the mystery of the mountain pass, but they didn't dare to try to go inside.
After Feng Yuan and Chen Feng heard this, they were both happy and worried. The joy is that the villagers call the rocky col, which is probably the location of the treasure spot marked on the wooden plaque; The worry was that since the villagers had tried so many times, they couldn't get rid of the fog of the Chaotic Stone Pass, and after Chen Feng and Feng Yuan entered, they would probably also be trapped by the fog, and it would be almost impossible to find the treasure.
But having come here, naturally it is not the time to retreat, and both of them still want to give it a try.
Just as the two of them were about to leave the village, they suddenly found that a young man who was three or four years older than Chen Feng was also inquiring about the situation of the stone pass.
However, it was obvious that listening to the young man's words, he seemed to know more about the rocky pass. Chen Feng was even more surprised to find that on the young man's waist, there was also a black wooden plaque about the same size as Chen Feng's hand.
Seeing this, the two immediately stopped.
Feng Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I'll come!" After finishing speaking, he tidied up his appearance, which was not necessary at all, and stepped forward, and said to the young man: "Friend, is it also for the sake of the rocks?" Can you take a step to speak? After speaking, Feng Yuan lit up the wooden card he had just received from Chen Feng.
Seeing the wooden card in Feng Yuan's hand, the young man was also stunned, and then nodded in agreement. In the young man's body, there is a kind of sophistication and maturity that Chen Feng does not have.
The three of them walked to the edge of the village, and Chen Feng found that the wooden card in the young man's hand was still different from his own, that is, the content of the wooden card in the young man's hand was the same as his own, that is, the side of the treasure map. As for the other side, it is a different text, presumably a different mantra.
Looking at the young man again, he was thick-looking and dark-skinned, but he looked more like a fisherman than Chen Feng.
Feng Yuan knew that he couldn't hide the matter of treasure hunting from the young man, so he immediately went straight to explain his intentions. The young man also did not mince words, and said very sophisticatedly: "I live in a Taoist temple not far away, so it is better for us to go there and think about it in the long run." I've been here for a while, and that col is not simple. Originally, I didn't think I could grasp the treasure alone, but now that there are two of you, I have some opportunities. ”
Then, the young man reported his name, Leng Feng.
Feng Yuan and Chen Feng naturally agreed. Leng Feng led the way, and the three of them walked for about half an hour, ushering in a high mountain, which was quite grandiose. However, what attracted Chen Feng's attention the most on the mountain was not the intricate mountains and the dense trees that covered the mountain, but the few pavilions hidden among the trees.
Coming to the foot of the mountain, Leng Feng stopped and said, "Let's go halfway up the mountain and take a look, there are still some historic sites on this mountain." ”
Chen Feng asked, "You have really been here for a while, and you are very familiar with it."
Leng Feng smiled: "I've traveled before, and I've been here before, but I wasn't very impressed at that time, and I didn't know about that strange mountain col. I've been here for a long time lately, and I'm familiar with it again. ”
At this time, it was almost dusk, and if he went further, he couldn't walk much before dark, and Chen Feng was also tired of walking, although the mountain in front of him was a little dangerous, but the path leading to the halfway up the mountain was a bluestone staircase, which was not very difficult to pass. Therefore, he followed Leng Feng step by step on the mountain. As for Feng Yuan, he had been frowning and thinking about it, but he didn't talk much.
Halfway up the mountain, I saw a very spacious square suddenly appear in front of me. The square is surrounded by dilapidated pavilions. In particular, in the center of the building, there is a large Taoist temple, although it has collapsed, but you can still see the original majestic atmosphere. As the sun sets, the afterglow falls, making the scene in front of you seem a little lonely.
Chen Feng said: "This road looks quite magnificent, the surrounding buildings are diverse, the scenery is quite a lot, this is a bit like the family temple of a large family, the function of the ceremony and the villa is both." Following Feng Yuan all the way to learn about the outside world, Chen Feng's knowledge has also increased a lot, and he is no longer the ignorant young man in the mountain village at the beginning.
Leng Feng pointed to the building in front of him and said: "There was originally such a Taoist temple near my house, and I heard that there were also immortals flying around, and then everyone moved away. When my grandfather was young, the Taoist temple was still there, and there were many villages and towns nearby, and they were all relatively prosperous. Listening to my father, my grandfather was sent over by my grandfather's father to be a Taoist boy when he was a child, but unfortunately because of his qualifications, he became vulgar again. But thankfully, otherwise there would probably be no me in this world. And I heard that the mountain was not something that could be approached casually at first, and it was foggy all around on weekdays, and those who walked in quickly got lost, but it was similar to a rocky pass. When my dad and I came to the neighborhood to collect medicine, it changed. My father said that since my grandfather's generation, the Taoists inside have dispersed, and the fog is gone. I guess the situation here is similar to the Taoist temple near my house. ”
Leng Feng pointed to the scene in front of him, he was not very old, but he also talked about it with a little vicissitudes.
