Chapter 157: Back to Mao'er Village
The gold ingots stopped in a passage of the rockery, looked at Chen Xin with eager eyes, and let out a squeaky scream.
"Hey, this place!" this place, he had just walked through twice, was just a passage more than three meters long.
Could it be that there is a hidden mystery in this passage? Chen Xin took out a night pearl, and the soft light illuminated the entire passage.
Looking at it, there was nothing abnormal, Chen Xin groped for the stone wall inch by inch, and finally at two meters from the passage, he touched a raised thing, which seemed to be a chain.
His eyes flashed, and Yuan Li moved in his right hand and pulled up the chain.
There was a sound of tearing, and when the chain was pulled to a meter long, the stone bricks on the soles of his feet cracked, and Chen Xin fell into the ground.
Looking at the hole above, Chen Xin estimated that there was a distance of ten meters, and under these ten meters, there was actually a man-made stone road.
He walked forward slowly, without the slightest fear, he was now a monk at the fourth level of the Human Yuan Realm, not to mention that in the Sunset Dynasty, in this Falling Tiger City, there were not many people who surpassed him.
The passage was very narrow, only one person could pass through, and after walking a stick of incense, a stone gate appeared at the end of the passage.
The stone gate was full of complex and simple formations, and Chen Xin couldn't understand it, so he directly summoned the gold ingot.
The gold ingots were quite excited here, and without Chen Xin's order, the two fangs bit down towards the stone gate, and the light of the formation flickered, and it dimmed instantly.
Chen Xin pushed open the stone door with one palm, and a trace of discoloration appeared in his eyes.
Behind the stone door was a stone room, which was empty, with only an alchemy furnace in the middle.
"Could it be that the previous city lord is still an alchemist?" Chen Xin walked in to observe, and after making sure that there was no abnormality, his eyes turned to the Dan furnace.
He slapped the Dan furnace with one palm, and the Dan lid flew up, and after the dust dissipated, it revealed the appearance inside.
In the middle of the Dan furnace, there was a black bamboo slip, as well as a few broken pills, and the gold ingots flew out directly, jumped into the Dan furnace, and stuffed the broken pills into his mouth.
Chen Xin wanted to stop it, but he was a step too slow, and after seeing that the gold ingots were safe, he took out the bamboo slips with confidence.
The bamboo slip contains a map, and on the bamboo slip, there are a few lines of small print.
"Pulsatilla Pavilion, wordless dragon pitu, everything is just a conspiracy. ”
Chen Xin closed the bamboo slip and held it tightly in his hand, his expression trembled, and there was an uproar in his heart: "Wordless dragon skin"
"Could it be related to the Longling Diagram?" he grabbed the gold ingot, put the alchemy furnace into the storage space, and ran out of the secret room at a high speed.
Chen Xin galloped under the moonlight, and in ten breaths, he came to the door of Luoyu Fan, and he pushed the door open.
Luo Yufan was meditating and cultivating, and when he heard the movement, he opened his eyes.
"Yufan, I found something?" Chen Xin handed the bamboo slip to Luoyufan along with the map.
Luo Yufan opened the bamboo slip, and his eyebrows were slowly dyed with a hint of caution.
"It seems that this Pulsatilla Mountain is bound to be visited!"
"Baektu Mountain does not belong to the Sunset Dynasty, to the east of the Kyushu map, an isolated island in an endless sea. ”
"Let's settle the matter of Fuyu Academy on Mengjia Mountain first, and then go to Baektu Mountain. ”
"Thank you!" Luo Yufan sincerely thanked him, there are a total of five copies of the Longling Map, which are hidden in various places on the Kyushu Continent, she stayed in the Sunset Dynasty for more than a year before she found one, it is not difficult to imagine how much effort it will take to collect all five copies, and it will take a bit of luck.
Elder Luo's departure was also to collect the Longling map, and now the second Longling map has already been seen, all thanks to Chen Xin.
"Maybe it's the providence of God in the dark, so that he can help me achieve my wish. Luo Yufan said secretly in his heart.
"Why are you so polite? Your business is mine. ”
Seeing that the girl was satisfied, Chen Xin nodded with a smile and slowly exited the door.
At dawn the next day, Chen Xin left a letter and took Chen Dong back to Mao'er Village.
He still remembered that after Chen Xi died, he walked hobbled for three months before he reached Luohu City, and he almost starved to death in the middle.
After becoming a monk of the Human Yuan Realm, with the help of the flying demon beast, the two returned to Mao'er Village in one day.
Afraid that the name of the village would be disturbed, the two deliberately started walking at the entrance of the village.
Mao'er Village has not changed, it is like an isolated paradise, full of laughter, there is no cultivation here, no killing, no troubles.
In the evening, the streets are full of harmony and tranquility, and the villagers have long been asleep.
The dark and dreary night seemed to be smeared heavily on the sky, hiding the two of them in the darkness, and only a few dogs barked occasionally.
Chen Xin doesn't know how many times he has walked through this street, and every bit of it has traces of him, and this is where he has lived for more than ten years.
It's a pity, things are wrong, the old people are no more, Chen Xin took Chen Dong to the cemetery in the back mountain, kowtowed three times, the cemetery was clean and tidy, and there were rotten fruits in front of the tombstone.
Chen Xin's eyes were moist, he didn't expect that more than a year after he left, there were still people who often cleaned the cemetery.
Chen Dong leaned in front of the tombstone, his palm caressing the tombstone, as if he had a thousand words to tell.
Chen Xin left quietly and returned home.
In the large water tank in the courtyard, there are no more watermelons, the water has long since dried up, and the bottom of the tank is covered with a thick layer of dust.
After staying for a long time, Chen Xin left.
There are eighteen families in Mao'er Village, and he walks through them one by one, leaving a gold ingot in front of the door of each house.
"The only thing I can repay you is these things outside of you. "For Mao'er Village, who don't know how to cultivate, this gold is what they need the most.
Dawn was coming, and Chen Xin and Chen Dong left Luohu City.
"Next time I come back, maybe there will be no more familiar faces here. "The years of the monks are endless, one day in the mountains, a thousand years in the world, and by the time the two of them come back next time, these mortals must have turned to dust.
"Yes, mortals are not the same as monks, and from the moment you cultivate, you have no contact with these people. Chen Dong sighed infinitely, which is also the reason why he advised Chen Xin not to disturb the name of the village.
"If you can't cultivate, even if you go to the Li Mansion, you won't have anything to do with Li Xin'er. Chen Dong meant something.
"Grandpa, what do you want to say!"
"Chen Xin, Yufan is not here, grandpa wants to ask you?"
"If the stone body you used to have didn't exist, don't you really have half an idea of Li Xin'er!" After all, after staying in the Li family for decades, watching Li Xin'er grow up, even if he knew Chen Xin's intentions, Chen Dong couldn't help but want to ask Chen Xin's thoughts.
