"Later, we heard that Ai Gaoyi was going to Yangxin County, so we ambushed him on the road, but it failed, and my senior brother died because of it."

"Okay, Zijin, don't say any more. Now that we're here, why don't we go to your house? Jian Ning said with a smile.

"No, miss, Miss Ruan said just now, if ordinary people can't go up, they must have light skills." Xi'er suddenly reminded from the side.

"Well, I forgot about it." Jian Ning was reminded by Xi'er like this, and immediately reacted. Now there is only one Zijin left here who knows martial arts, and it is impossible to take the three of them up.

"That's not in the way. Master had thought of this situation early on, so he set up a mechanism at the top of the peak. As long as you press the mechanism, it will naturally drop something from the top of the peak and take you up. Ruan Zijin said with a smile.

"Then that's no problem. But I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with Tianhua Mountain today, and after tomorrow arrives, we will stay on Tianhua Mountain for two more days. Jian Ning looked at Ruan Zijin's expectant face and said with a smile.

In the evening, Jian Ning and the others went out of the range of Jingding Prefecture. Because there is now a lack of Fengyang and Su Tong, Liu Leshan did not walk at night for safety, but found a relatively hidden place to rest.

Originally, Liu Leshan wanted to keep vigil alone, but in the end, he couldn't resist Ruan Zijin's insistence, so he took turns keeping vigil with her, so that he could rest for a while.

Early the next morning, Jian Ning got up early, because she had lost her sense of taste now, and for the matter of eating, Jian Ning's abnormal rejection, if it wasn't for not starving, Jian Ning almost didn't want to eat.

The road here Ruan Zijin had already walked twice when he went down the mountain before. Naturally, it is more familiar. took Jian Ning and left the official road. From a narrow but fairly flat road, in the afternoon we arrived at a small village at the foot of Tianhua Mountain.

Ruan Zijin had never left Tianhua Mountain before her master's disappearance, and even the number of times she had gone down the mountain was counted. Because Master always admonishes them that the outside world is too complicated for them.

So even these villagers at the foot of the mountain, Ruan Zijin is not familiar with it, and even has no impression.

Because the carriage couldn't get up, Liu Leshan found a villager. He gave them some silver to take care of the wagons and feed the horses.

Ruan Zijin took Jian Ning and them into the mountain from a trail, and after climbing for about half an hour, Jian Ning and the others reached the back of the cliff. Looking up, it is really bare, about thirty or forty zhang, this height can be said to be a master, even if the average person can do light work, it is estimated that they will not be able to reach the top.

"Ning'er, you wait here first, I'll go up first. And then I'm going to get you up with a trap. After Ruan Zijin finished speaking, he performed light skills and flew up.

Jian Ning watched Ruan Zijin's movements. found that in fact, Ruan Zijin could only fly over the height of three zhang once. However, it seems that this cliff is specially designed, and there will be a small foothold almost every three feet, which can allow her to force up again.

When he had crossed a height of about 20 zhang, Ruan Zijin suddenly pulled out a rope with a barb from his waist, shook it hard, and firmly wrapped around a prominent sharp stone above, and with the pull of the rope, Ruan Zijin jumped up and landed directly on the small platform. After that, he repeated the action just now, and got on a small platform again, and after two times, Jian Ning finally saw Ruan Zijin successfully reach the peak.

It didn't take long for a large basket to be lowered from the top of the peak. Looking at the slowly falling basket, Jian Ning was shocked, this was actually a pulley structure, and it was also an automatic pulley. I have to say that Ruan Zijin's master is a master, a master in the world!

Because the gravity of the basket is limited, Jian Ning and the others went up one by one. When he saw the house on the top of the cliff, Jian Ning was like being struck by lightning. This building, this building is modern!

Although it is still a wooden structure, the shape is really like a modern villa!

"Zijin, did your master build this house?" Jian Ning almost trembled with excitement, and suddenly ran over and grabbed Ruan Zijin's shoulder and asked.

"Yes, yes." Ruan Zijin was a little frightened by Jian Ning's appearance, and endured the pain in her shoulder and said, "Does Ning Er think this house is a little different from yours." I also asked Master about it at the time, and he said that this was his hometown house, and it took him three years to build it! ”

Hometown house? Hometown house? It really is, really the same as myself, people from modern times. I just don't know what year he came through. Looking at the appearance of this house, although it is modern, it seems to be a little different from the villas around him, or is he of a different nationality from himself?

"Zijin, how old is your master this year?" Jian Ning asked again.

"Master should be seventy this year, but Master is in excellent health, and he looks like he is about sixty." Ruan Zijin said with a smile.

Jian Ning thought to herself, a seventy-year-old man, how many years has he been here? Is there really no way to go back? He was able to raise Ruan Zijin's brothers and sisters, and he has been here for more than 20 years.

"Alright, Ning'er, let's go in. There's a lot of fun stuff in there! Ruan Zijin saw that the last Liu Leshan also came up, so he took back the mechanism and walked inside with Jian Ning.

"Ning'er, you must follow me, don't make a mistake, otherwise you will touch the mechanism, and it will not be good if you are injured." Ruan Zijin reminded everyone seriously.

"Zijin, do you know about your master? Can you tell me about it? Jian Ning asked Ruan Zijin as she walked. His master has been missing for more than a year, and Ruan Zijin and the others found out that he was killed by Ai Gaoyi, could it be that he returned to modern times?

"I don't know. My brother and I asked Master about the previous incident, but Master didn't tell us. Master rarely talks about his own affairs, he always says that those things are in the past, and there is no need to mention them again. Ruan Zijin said lightly, walking in this place where he has lived for more than ten years, Ruan Zijin's sadness arises spontaneously.

"Then what's your master's name?"

"My senior brother and I are both surnamed Ruan, the surname of the master. As for what the master's name is, it seems to be called Ruan Feichen! Master also said this a few times when we were younger, so I don't remember it very clearly. Ruan Zijin thought hard and said with a little embarrassment.

"Ruan Feichen? I think I've seen this name somewhere, but I can't remember it all of a sudden. Jian Ning shook her head vigorously, but it still didn't have the slightest effect.

Led Jian Ning and them all the way into the house, Ruan Zijin said a little embarrassed: "Well, I'm sorry, Ning'er, because no one usually comes here, and even if they do, the master will not leave them overnight." So the whole house, looking like there are a lot of rooms, and there are only three rooms that really have beds. Otherwise, you and Xi'er will sleep in my room, I will sleep in my senior brother's room, and Shopkeeper Liu will sleep in my master's room. ”

"No, Zijin, you and Xi'er will sleep in your original room tonight, senior brother will sleep in your senior brother's room, and I will sleep in your master's room." Jian Ning rejected Ruan Zijin's arrangement for the first time. Because she urgently needs to know a little more about Master Ruan's situation now, at least to determine how he came here, or his identity, whether it is in modern times or after coming here. There is also the question of whether there is a way to go back.

"I don't have anything to do with it, as long as you agree." Ruan Zijin looked at Liu Leshan and Xi'er and said with a smile.

"I'm casual, I live the same anywhere." Liu Leshan waved his hand indifferently. He is not superstitious, he has not done anything wrong, and he is not afraid of that kind of ghostly statement.

"Xi'er has no opinion either."

"Then I'll show you around the house first!" Ruan Zijin began to introduce as he spoke.

Liu Leshan and Xi'er are full of curiosity about many things here, such as sofas, bar counters, and many knick-knacks.

However, these things have an incomparable sense of intimacy in Jian Ning's eyes, although some things cannot be compared with modern ones, but they also prove that their owners are from modern times.

There is a large vegetable garden in the backyard of the house, and because of the altitude, the vegetables grown here are more cold-tolerant species. Jian Ning picked some casually, because she didn't have a sense of taste now, and it was basically Xi'er's cooking. As long as Xi'er eats delicious food by herself, the other three sometimes even just eat, purely to avoid starvation.

After eating, Jian Ning took the lead in getting up and wanted to go back to the room.

At this time, Ruan Zijin stood up and reminded: "Ning'er, there is a door in Master's room, which is Master's secret room, and you are not allowed to enter. But there's a weird pattern on it, and I guess you won't be able to open it. I'm just telling you about it. ”

"Okay, I got it." Jian Ning answered and hurriedly returned to the room.

entered the door and went directly to the door that Ruan Zijin just said. The more places you are not allowed to enter, the more secrets you have. However, when moving the door, Jian Ning still silently recited the words of apology and apology in her heart, and now she was really forced to do so.

After that, Jian Ningzai carefully observed the door, there was really something painted on it, and at a glance, Jian Ning was surprised, it turned out to be twenty-six letters, which should be the strange pattern that Zijin said. But after reading it, I found that there was no trace of anything other than the twenty-six letters written on it. There is not a single hole in the whole body of the whole door, it seems that there is some mechanism.

I looked around again, but I still didn't find anything. Jian Ning leaned against the door a little dejectedly.

Jian Ning, calm down, there must be a mechanism, think about it again. Jian Ning kept comforting herself in her heart. (To be continued......)
