Volume 2 The Wind Rises in Jiangdu Chapter 70 Piercing the Cloud Peak

In the interval between Jiangnan and the others, Zhiqin and Ruhua had already caught up, and after a short pause, Ruhua regained its previous vitality, "Why did they go?" As soon as he came up, he asked straight to the point, and his eyes were fixed on the back of Qi Chen and the others leaving.

…… Jiang Nan stared at the two of them, ignoring the picturesque question, but considering whether to tell them something. It's true to ask for yourself, but it doesn't seem appropriate to be kept in the dark and run around by yourself, what you can't say, where you can always speak!

"We're going out of the city, let's go to Luohua Mountain first, deal with some things, and then go back to Jiangdu directly. If you feel that you are working hard, you can stay here and wait, and I will send someone to help you bring the news back to Jiangdu and let your people pick it up. Jiang Nan stared at the two of them with a little expectation, but in his heart he hoped that they would stay, so that they would have less scruples.

Zhiqin and Ruhua glanced at each other, although they knew in their hearts that they were not welcome here, but if they were separated from them and left alone in Yangzi, safety could not be guaranteed, and the two frightened hearts were not yet calm, so they had to face the unknown, where to bear it, compared with the cold, the former was obviously more acceptable.

made up her mind, Zhiqin said a blessing, "The two little girls still have to bother the strong man to shelter them!" As he spoke, his autumn-like eyes looked at Jiangnan calmly.

Jiang Nan nodded and signaled that it was no problem, "You may sleep in the wilderness at night, you have to be prepared!" ”

Hearing this, she patted the burden on her back, "We brought clothes, no problem!" ”

Jiang Nan glanced behind her, nodded and hummed, "Then let's go!" With that, he turned around and walked in the direction of the West City Gate, followed by the rest.

After all, Wu Liu had been here a few times, and he was quite familiar with the city, leading everyone to walk slowly along the street with restaurants. There were a lot of people in the group, and they entered several restaurants one after another to buy all the steamed buns needed on the road, and they had a lot of baggage.

Go up the main street and go straight west, and then go out of the city.

Not far from the city gate is a small forest, Qi Chen and the others have all arrived, and they are resting at the edge of the forest, seeing Wu Liu and Wang Bing carrying a few big burdens, they hurriedly stepped forward to pick them up.

Everyone gathered together and continued westward, about an hour or so, to the foot of Luohua Mountain.

The sky was getting dark, and the mountain was already gray, and trees were faintly visible. A river meanders from behind the mountain, with a roaring sound that stretches into the distance.

Everyone knew that they were going to spend the night here, and they all consciously ran to prepare, some gathered dry firewood, some brought stones with smooth surfaces, and some began to make fires......

Jiangnan stood on the bank of the river with his hands, looking at the people running around with great interest, these people are all veterans in this, no need to mention it, they can be skillful in their respective work, it is really a champion.

He stared at it for a while, making sure that he didn't need to do anything or worry about it, and then he raised his head and looked up the mountain.

In a short time, the mountain was completely dark, the dense forest had turned into a black shadow, the birds returned to their nests, the beasts returned to their dens, and the silence was deep and quiet, only the sound of gurgling water in the ears reminded the time to fly.

Seeing that everyone was about to stop and rest, Jiang Nan raised his hand and beckoned Wu Liu, "Sixth, I'll take advantage of the fact that no one is paying attention in the middle of the night to go up the mountain to check." Stay here, stay hidden, and don't forget to keep people around when you rest! ”

Wu Liu nodded, frowned and said in a low voice: "Childe, go up the mountain at night, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate!" The mountain road is already difficult to walk, and the vision is not good at night, not to mention the beasts for the time being, and the miasma is not something that ordinary people can bear, or ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jiang Nan waving his hand, "Time is pressing, I can't care so much!" Liu Yuanwai has been wiped out for some time, and if you don't hurry up to collect clues, I'm afraid that it will be more difficult after a long time, and this case will become a death case. It's rare to have some eyebrows this time, and I'm going to go up and check it out for myself anyway! Rest assured, as soon as I notice something is wrong, I will return immediately! If there is really some gain, what is the point of taking a little risk! ”

Seeing that Wu Liu was going to persuade again, he raised his hand to stop him: "Okay, I have made up my mind, you stay here, those two still have to take care of it!" Jiang Nan's chin was raised, and he said firmly: "People pin their lives on us, and we must also be worthy of this trust!" After speaking, his hand slapped Wu Liu's shoulder twice.

Wu Liu knew who Jiang Nan was talking about, so he nodded heavily.

Jiang Nan swept towards the forest, his feet were silent, and his figure drew an afterimage, like a ghost floating by, and the sentence "I'm leaving" still echoed in Wu Liu's ears.

……

Everyone knows that the mountain road is difficult, and this Luohua Mountain is inaccessible, there are no forest paths, and it is night, which is even more difficult. Jiangnan is so bold, in addition to solving the case, it is also a martial art.

It is said that most of the trees in this mountain were cut down for firewood, and I don't know how long ago this was said, but the Jiangnan that walked through it was a different view.

It is true that the trees have been cut down, and it is vaguely visible that many stumps are densely strewn and horizontally, but they are not dead, and many of the stumps have sprang out of the new branches, intertwined and intertwined, forming an endless network of trees, through which it is very difficult to pass through. It was dark in the forest, and Jiangnan had to climb to the top of the tree every once in a while to check so as not to deviate from the direction.

Standing on the treetops, his body swaying up and down with the branches, Jiang Nan looked at his feet, and then looked at the dense branches and leaves around him, as if he had an understanding.

What is light work? In fact, it is not as unfathomable as people think, and if you can find out the truth, it is extremely simple.

Internal force is another name for people to absorb the unknown energy between heaven and earth and store it in the body, and light power is a way for people to control the internal force, through the wonderful use of internal force, so that people can get rid of the gravitational force of the earth.

Thinking about the mystery, Jiang Nan quickly adjusted, abandoned the distracting thoughts in his heart, exercised his strength and boosted his qi, and let himself become one with the branches and leaves under his feet. The mountain breeze is slow, the branches and leaves are swaying, the south of the Yangtze River also dances with the wind, when the branches bounce up, the body is vertical, and people are like fallen leaves slowly floating out of the branches several zhang away.

And so it was!

Jiang Nan said secretly. Carefully recall what happened just now, understand the essentials, and try again.

I saw that Jiangnan was like a spirit monkey, rising and falling among the treetops, and the scenery on both sides was rapidly retreating, and it had traveled hundreds of zhang away in a moment.

Seeing the towering trees being trampled under his feet, and people crossing the night sky like meteors, Jiang Nan's chest was instantly full of pride, and he couldn't help but want to shout loudly, thinking of the current situation of this trip, he had to resist this impulse.

The foot accelerated, and the figure flew further. After a while, the trees under my feet gradually thinned, but the mountain wind was even faster, and the whistling sounded in my ears. Seeing that the focus was getting less and less, Jiang Nan had to jump off the tree.

Looking up, the peak is still some distance away from here, but the surrounding is strange rocks, steep cliffs, I can't help muttering in my heart, it took a lot of effort to come up, those few helpers have really come up? Is there really a Futuo temple here?

It's all here, and you can't give up halfway by saying anything, Jiang Nan's footsteps moved forward slowly, his eyes looked around, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

Stone!

There are indeed people at the peak!

Jiang Nan quickly stepped forward to check. I saw that a narrow path was carved out between the rocks of the mountain, which could accommodate one person to pass through, and the ground was paved with stones to form a stone step up the mountain.
