Chapter 20: Flower Fox Marten
In the early morning, the two gates of Haifeng Gate slowly opened, waiting for some villagers outside to enter.
Most of these people carried fresh vegetables, which they were ready to give to the big families in the city.
When the first villagers were inspected and entered the city, a dilapidated donkey cart creaked out of the city.
Behind, a stout guard shouted loudly, "Erlang, have fun." The black thin city guard next to him whispered, "Erlang won't go to Wumeng Mountain to get exercises, right?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, he is young, he is already in such a realm, what exercises do you need. He Gang saw Qu Neng coming over while he was speaking, and quickly stood up straight: "It's early in the morning, brothers cheer up, don't let any bad guys enter the city." ”
Kong Qiu replied: "Don't worry, my eyes are fine, and a bad fly can't get in." ”
Qu Neng ignored the two men, walked straight to the drawbridge, glanced at the donkey cart in the distance, and then returned to the city. Yesterday evening, before Su Wei unloaded, he found Qu Neng and said that he wanted to take a day off, take Xiaoyu out of the city to play, and find the other party's family by the way.
In this regard, Qu Neng did not refuse, but just asked Su Wei to pay attention to safety.
After that, Su Wei borrowed a donkey cart from his colleague Lao Zhou. This donkey cart is used by Lao Zhou to pull firewood on weekdays, although the donkey pulling the cart is older, but the pace is not slow, but the body is too broken. Therefore, when Lao Zhou led the donkey cart to Haifeng Gate in the early morning, he spread a thick layer of rice on it.
Under the morning sun, Su Wei slowly drove the donkey cart, and the little fish leaned on his side. Behind the two of them was a large bamboo basket with a few peaches and a bunch of banana fruits in the frame.
Haifeng Gate is the right gate on the west side of Panyu City, due to the barrier of Wumeng Mountain, this gate is not prosperous, so there are few people outside the city, and most of them are farmers who grow vegetables.
The donkey cart followed the official road for half an hour before entering a path. This is the way to the town of Bangshan.
One of the entrances to Wumeng Mountain is just behind the town of Bangshan.
Xiaoyu sat in the car, looking at the scenery of the countryside, happy, and jumped around in the car from time to time. Su Wei was worried that this girl would fall apart, so he hurriedly called it off.
An hour later, the town of Bangshan arrived. Su Wei made some money to store the donkey cart in the backyard of an oil shop. He picked up the bamboo basket and led the small fish towards Wumeng Mountain.
Although the mountain is close, it is actually far away.
Although the entrance of Wumeng Mountain is just behind Bangshan Town, it still took Su Wei a lot of time to walk over.
As for the little fish, this girl is sitting in a bamboo basket eating peaches.
Because cultivators often kill mysterious beasts and take muscles, bones and hairs for use, therefore, there are few crises near the Wumeng Mountain, but even so, ordinary people do not dare to enter the mountain, at most, some hunters go into the mountain to hunt for their livelihood, but they still do not dare to go to the depths of Wumeng Mountain.
Su Wei's body is full of Xuan Qi at the moment, and he is naturally not tired of carrying a small fish up the mountain on his back. Still, he drew the iron axe that was stuck in his waist, and was very careful to guard it.
After walking for a stick of incense like this, there were already lush vegetation and countless big trees everywhere, if it weren't for the mountain road left by the ancients, Su Wei really didn't know where to go.
At the same time, he found that He Gang was right, that is, Wumeng Mountain was so big, even if there were any exercises hidden, it would be difficult to find them.
But it's all here, and you can't go home empty-handed.
When the front mountain road was divided into two, Su Wei chose the right road. He had already asked Qing Hei Yuantan how to get to the Black Abyss Pond in Pang Shan Town.
"Young man, don't be greedy for that white jade fish, you can't go down the black abyss pool, and many people have drowned. The old man who showed Su Wei the way said very sincerely.
Su Wei thanked him earnestly.
Is it just that he will be drowned?
Since the exercises are hard to find, let's catch a few white jade fish first, and it's not bad to earn some money.
Not long after Su Wei walked towards the mountain road on the right, a thin black man appeared in the dense forest. He quietly waited for Su Wei to go away, and then quietly followed. Just two steps later, the whole person fell.
There were three more jet-black crossbow arrows in his heart.
Then, a man in black slowly approached. The man raised the light crossbow in his hand and aimed it at the thin black man's head, and without the slightest hesitation, pulled the trigger.
Soon, the thin black man became a corpse.
The man in black kicked away the thin black man's clenched right hand, and saw a silver throwing knife hidden in it.
"Zeng Yan, you also have today. The man in black hung the light crossbow back on his waist, grabbed Zeng Yan's body and threw it into the dense forest. He believed that it wouldn't be long before the corpse of this Aoki sect's secret spy would become a meal for the beast.
As for why Zeng Yan was also tracking his target, didn't the black-clothed man think that Su Wei had a problem?
......
After a long journey, Hei Yuantan finally arrived.
The waterhole is located at the foot of a ten-foot high waterfall. Since it is autumn at this time, there is not enough water in the mountains, so the waterfall flows intermittently. But even so, the water in the Black Abyss Pool was full. And the pool is blue and black, which is enough to show that the black abyss pool is indeed as its name suggests, and it is bottomless.
In addition, there is a long stone standing next to the waterhole.
The stone is engraved with the seven characters of 'Do not enter the water depth of the Black Abyss Pond'.
Su Wei put down the bamboo basket, carried the small fish to a disc stone by the pool, and then took off the iron ring from his wrist and handed it to the other party: "I went into the water to fish, you stay on it, if there is danger, you know what to do, right?"
Xiao Yu nodded vigorously, and then threw the iron ring in his hand.
"Bang. ”
With a loud sound, several pieces of a large stone not far away cracked.
Xiao Yu raised the iron ring that came back and shook it proudly at Su Wei, meaning that you can rest assured, with me, no one in this pool dares to grab the fish in this pool.
Su Wei had to give another order: "Keep your eyes wide and don't sleep." He took off his clothes and went into the water in his shorts.
He had an iron axe stuck in his waist and a three-foot-long rope tied to his wrist, at the end of which was a transparent bead wrapped in a wire mesh.
This crystal bead was borrowed by Su Wei from Di Yunsheng, and it can emit light in deep water.
To tell the truth, only a wealthy family like the Di family in Panyu City has crystal beads. You must know that this crystal bead was obtained by the mermaids of the South China Sea who went deep into the bottom of the sea to find the remains of the lantern fish and cut the fish gall.
Although it is only early autumn at this time, the temperature in the mountains is much lower than the outside, and with the peculiar attributes of the Black Abyss Pond, the water in the pool is very cold. Fortunately, Su Wei is already at the peak of the extension of the pulse, and his physique is special, so he does not tremble after entering the water.
As Su Wei walked into the depths of the pool, his whole person began to dive. At the same time, the crystal beads begin to glow, illuminating everywhere. Su Wei was worried about some monster in the pool, so he took out an iron axe and held it in his hand. He breathed freely in the water, and without worrying about ventilation, he kept falling. It's just that the further down he goes, the more space Su Wei finds around.
Obviously, this black abyss pool is like a gourd, small at the top and big at the bottom. And there are many grottoes around, among which there are countless narrow roads. Su Wei slowly approached a narrow passage, although he had never gone into the water to fish before, he also knew that fish liked to hide in these hidden places.
Soon, he found a white jade fish.
......
On the edge of the black abyss pool, on the disc stone.
The little fish threw a peach pit into the grass in the distance, and prepared to go to the bamboo basket to get the peaches. On the way up the mountain, Su Wei picked a lot of autumn peaches for him.
Although the autumn peach is a little sour, the small fish are still very happy to eat.
She picked up a peach, and was about to take a bite of it, when suddenly her ears moved slightly, and she quickly looked up, and saw an animal the size of a domestic cat standing there with a gray body and short limbs.
Xiao Yu blinked, remembering that he had seen this thing in the city.
At that time, someone put the little guy in a bamboo cage and sold it.
It is said that this 'flower fox marten' is extremely fast, especially good at catching mice, and is much more reliable than domestic cats that like to sleep.
However, this flower fox marten is very expensive and not easy to tame, so few people buy it.
The little fish likes this mink.
She beckoned to the flower fox and sable, motioning for the other party to come over and eat peaches.
The flower fox marten didn't move, it didn't eat peaches, it wanted to eat fish. On weekdays, it will go to Heiyuantan to catch a few small fish to eat.
But today, someone blocked its way.
The flower fox marten could only grin at the little fish, trying to scare the little girl away.
The little fish smiled evilly, and then removed the iron ring from his wrist.
