Chapter 377: Striking the West
"What the hell are you going to do?" Su Qiubai asked with anger in his endurance.
"Today's young people are really rude, just forget it when they see their predecessors without greeting them, and they are still so vicious, it's really hateful!" The voice said with a smirk.
Su Qiubai said patiently: "I'm not your junior, I just happened to pass by here. If nothing else, I'll go first. ”
When the man saw that he was about to leave again, he said, "Don't be in a hurry to leave, you appear here, you must also be a disciple of the Taiyi Sect, right?" The old man has been here for decades, and it is the first time he has seen a disciple of Taiyi passing here, could it be that something has happened in the door? ”
When Su Qiubai heard this, he knew that his previous guess was correct, and it was the traitor who was sealed decades ago, but he didn't know what kind of seal it was, and he could let the people inside the seal cast spells to control the people outside. Although it wasn't a clever technique that almost tripped him just now, he could also feel that it was a simple trapping formation.
"I'm not a disciple of Taiyimen, so I don't know if anything has changed. I said I was just passing through here, and I'm afraid I can't tell you what you want to know. Su Qiubai said.
The voice didn't believe him, but smiled: "Even if it's not, it has nothing to do with Taiyimen." Old man, it doesn't matter why you pass through here, but since you're here, can you make a deal with the old man? ”
Su Qiubai's heart moved when he heard this, and he didn't rush to refuse him, but asked, "What deal?" ”
The voice replied, "If you let me out, I can help you fulfill a wish, okay?" ”
Su Qiubai smiled when he heard this, you are Aladdin's magic lamp? And fulfill a wish.
"Any wish?" Su Qiubai suddenly had a joke in mind.
The man replied solemnly, "Yes, as long as I can do it." ”
Su Qiubai suddenly rolled his eyes, isn't this nonsense? If he can't do anything, isn't that promise in vain?
"I want world peace, can you do it?" Su Qiubai remembered the joke he had seen before, so he said.
The man was silent for a moment before he said, "The old man has no intention of joking with you, and he has no time to entertain you. I know that there is no basis for empty words, if you believe it, you will believe it, and if you don't believe it, you will leave. But the old man believes that everyone in this world has things he wants to do but can't do. You'll come back to me someday. ”
Su Qiubai frowned and stared at the mountain wall for a long time, and a thought suddenly appeared in his heart, but he quickly dispelled it. Fearing that he would be deceived by the man if he stayed any longer, he quickly turned around and left, and the man said nothing.
The three of them explored around for a long time, and finally met in the separate place, but Su Qiubai did not tell the two of them what happened to him.
That was the end of the first day's exploration, and they didn't really want to find anything anyway, so they returned to Teng Fei's broken wooden house.
"I don't know if our actions today can fool Dongfang Zheng." Dongfang Rui is still a little worried.
Teng Fei replied as he put away the Silver Scale Sword again, "How can it be so easy? We're going to have to go a few more times over the next few days, so he's going to be fooled. And he probably doesn't want us to really touch the seal of the grotto, otherwise the trouble will be much bigger than if we rescued Ah Miao. Therefore, he will definitely send more men near the grotto, and when he thinks we are going to do it, we will surprise him, and directly attack the forbidden ground, thinking that he should be able to succeed in one blow. ”
Although the routine has been decided, the details still have to be explored by the three of them, after all, they don't know how Dongfang Zheng will respond to their actions, so they can only take one step at a time.
For the next two days, the three of them were still pretending to search around the grotto, but Su Qiubai deliberately avoided the mountain wall he had passed by last time, because he didn't want to have too much communication with that person now.
Because the location of the grotto is also kept secret to the disciples of Taiyi Sect, Dongfang Rui and Tengfei don't know where the seal location is, so the three of them have been looking for it here for so long.
Dongfang Zheng naturally knew the movements of the three of them, and at this time he sat in his room, with his confidant elders. Hu Xiuwen discussed the matter.
"I can't imagine that Teng Fei can pretend to be crazy and stupidly deceive us for so long. Senior brother, should we just let them search around the grotto and ignore them? Wouldn't it be dangerous if they found the sealed place? Hu Xiuwen said worriedly.
Dongfang Zheng sneered and said, "No matter how much he pretends to be, he is just a waste who is barely breathing, and he can't make any waves." As for the grottoes, I have my own arrangements. ”
Hu Xiuwen asked, "Senior brother, why are they suddenly interested in that grotto?" Could it be that he is planning to release that person and turn against us? ”
Dongfang Zheng shook his head and said, "You overestimate them too much, if you really have the guts, that kid wouldn't have agreed to live here in the first place." I think most of them think that Ah Miao is locked in a grotto by me, it's ridiculous! ”
Hu Xiuwen glanced at him hesitantly and said, "Even if that kid doesn't know, Teng Fei and Dongfang Rui know who is locked up in that grotto, how can they not know that we won't touch that grotto?" ”
Dongfang Zheng glanced at him and said confidently: "Dongfang Rui has been away from the master for decades, and Teng Fei has been thrown into the vegetable garden for more than ten years, how much knowledge can they have?" What's more, this Taiyi Gate has been turned over by them, I have never stopped them, and even the forbidden land has allowed them to break in, but what did they find? After ruling out the possibility of one qiē, even if it is no longer possible, they will try it, and this is my chance to catch them all. ”
Hu Xiuwen didn't let go of his heart because of his words, although Dongfang Zheng's words sounded very reasonable, but he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say why, so he had to come down silently.
"After searching around the grotto for two or three days, they should not be far from the sealed place. I have set up a trap at the entrance of the grotto, and as soon as they set foot in it, I will be able to bring men to surround them, and I will surely wipe them all out!" Dongfang Zheng said, took out a copper waist card from his arms, and shook it in front of Hu Xiuwen.
"This is ......" Hu Xiuwen recognized what it was at a glance, but he didn't expect that Dongfang was so enthusiastic in order to deal with these three people.
Dongfang Zheng put away the bronze medal and said, "Don't make a fuss, my grandson is much more powerful than you think." If I were alone, I wouldn't be his opponent. It's still necessary to work a little harder, so you can just wait to watch a good show with me. ”
When Hu Xiuwen heard this, he suddenly asked: "But senior brother, he is your grandson after all, do you really want to attack him?" ”
Dongfang Zheng's face suddenly turned cold, and he said: "The blood on his body is not just my Dongfang family, this kind of grandson who is not rightly named, don't do it." ”
Hu Xiuwen glanced at him hesitantly, and the feeling of inappropriateness in his heart became stronger and stronger, but he didn't say anything after all.
In Teng Fei's cabin, the three of them also ended the day's search and were sitting and resting.
"After these three days, Dongfang Zheng has guessed everything he should have guessed, presumably he is not idle in secret, we should think about the forbidden land now." Teng Fei said.
Su Qiubai nodded and said: "Although the foreshadowing in front is enough, but in the end it is the most critical juncture, we must not only lead Dongfang Zheng's people to the grotto, but also have time to go to the forbidden land." ”
Dongfang Rui glanced at Teng Fei and said: "The last time is the key to the sound of the east and west, and I am responsible for attracting their attention, you take Xiaobai directly to the forbidden land, try to find Ah Miao's whereabouts, I will try to delay the time." ”
Teng Fei shook his head and said, "No, you go to the forbidden land, and I will go to the grotto." ”
Dongfang Rui asked strangely, "Why?" ”
Teng Fei's eyes were full of understanding, and he said: "You and I both know that Dongfang Zheng will inevitably set up an ambush around the grotto, and it will be difficult to get out of it alone, so you said this with the determination to die, right?" ”
Dongfang Rui was stunned for a moment, then he didn't deny it, and said directly: "Yes, although this trip is dangerous, I have to go." And I'm the best person to go, so don't fight with me. ”
Teng Fei shook his head and said, "What is the most suitable candidate, do you deserve to die?" Look at my current appearance, if it weren't for the fact that one day I could get rid of Dongfang Zheng, a traitor, I wouldn't want to linger in this world with this appearance. I only ask you for one thing, after rescuing Ah Miao, end this fight for me, so that I can also look under the nine springs. ”
Dongfang Rui wanted to fight again, but was interrupted by Su Qiubai on the side: "Are the two seniors trying to make my juniors die of shame?" How could I put you at risk to save your mother? ”
When the two saw that he was also coming to intervene, thinking that he was also going to fight for this opportunity to "send him to death", Dongfang Rui hurriedly persuaded: "You can't go, if you have a mistake, what's the point of saving Ah Miao?" ”
Su Qiubai smiled when he heard this: "My cousin misunderstood what I meant, I naturally couldn't be absent when I went to the forbidden land to save my mother, but the person in charge of transferring the tiger from the mountain didn't have to be determined to die." I knew it would be dangerous, so when I went to investigate in the past two days, I had already made the arrangements, and when the time came, I just had to do what I said, and I would be able to get out safely. ”
Dongfang Rui's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" Tell me, what have you done? ”
Su Qiubai glanced around, picked up a branch outside the door, squatted on the ground and drew it, and after a while, he drew a simple map.
"It's ...... A map to get to the grotto? Teng Fei asked hesitantly.
Su Qiubai nodded and said, "Yes, this is exactly what I have figured out in the past few days." And my layout is in this map. ”
