Chapter 453: Meeting
In the Xicheng Mountain, there are countless low peaks and low ridges, and on the top of a mountain col, there is a calm farmhouse courtyard. Located on a high place, there are several houses, surrounded by all kinds of lush trees, and there is a gravel path in front of the courtyard.
Such a courtyard looks really ordinary, but within the influence of the snake spirit base camp, it is destined to be unusual. In the courtyard house, there are several coffins, both wide and old, the night wind rises, the branches and leaves of the surrounding trees rustle, and there is the sound of whining wind, the whole small courtyard is full of strangeness, shrouded in a strange atmosphere.
In the dark scene, the main room in the middle flashed a dim light, like a shaking ghost fire, which made people's hearts cool under this night.
With a slight sound of footsteps, Gu Yumei walked into the courtyard with steady steps, and opened the door directly into the main room.
Inside the house, an old man with gray hair, rough clothes, and a decaying body was eating dinner. What was more shabby than him was the food, which didn't look like there was any oil and water, but the old man ate it very well. He only glanced up at Gu Yumei slightly, then focused on the rice bowl again, and asked while chewing, "How is the situation?" ”
This old man is the patriarch of the snake spirit, and the old servant "Lu Cheng" who has served the old master of the snake spirit, Yuan Keshi, for decades. It's just that at this time, Lu Cheng, under that rough and ordinary face, there is already another face hidden.
"As you expected, Yu Wenzhong was rescued by Li Yuanfang and Xian'er!" Gu Yumei's voice was cold and she replied.
I couldn't see any change in his expression, Lu Cheng's reaction was very flat, and after a little silence, Fang asked, "Xiao Qingfang, there is no doubt!" ”
Shaking her head, Gu Yumei replied, "No." She also thought that she still controlled the old master, you in the main altar, our sister, just helped her "seriously injure" Shining, and she didn't suspect it! ”
Hearing this, the corners of Lu Cheng's mouth finally curled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and the old voice gave people a sense of confidence that everything was under control: "You can take the next step, Di Renjie is afraid that he has arrived in Zezhou, and he has to find a way to introduce it into the mountains and eliminate Xiao Qingfang's forces!" ”
"I'm going?" Gu Yumei asked?
"No!" Lu Cheng immediately waved his hand: "You summoned the two of you to the small temple, you must follow them as soon as possible, otherwise, they will suspect you!" ”
Mrs. Gu said along with the words: "Xiao Qingfang asked me to show up and lead Li Yuanfang and Xian'er in the direction of the main altar. ”
"Oh?" Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows and said in a cold voice: "You can give it a try, Li Yuanfang's person is too dangerous, it's best to get rid of him!" ”
"Right now, in the deep mountains, there is no one to rely on, can we combine the power of Shining Spirit and our sisters to attack and kill Li Yuanfang while they are unprepared?" Gu Yumei made a suggestion.
Lu Cheng suddenly showed a look of intent, but after only a little thought, he gave up, shook his head and said: "This may kill Li Yuanfang, but it will affect our established plan, without Li Yuanfang and Su Xian'er, you are only afraid that it will arouse Di Renjie's suspicion, Di Renjie is not so easy to deceive." And Xiao Qingfang, don't underestimate her......"
"So what to do?" Gu Yumei asked.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Cheng suddenly changed the topic and asked, "You are there in Yuanhui, there are no flaws!" ”
Hearing Lu Cheng's question, Gu Yumei first lowered her head and thought about it, making a look of recollection, and after a while, she replied: "It shouldn't be, I'm afraid he still thinks that I have completely surrendered to him, let alone know that I have a twin sister." ”
"Good!" Lu Cheng tapped his head twice: "You sisters, it will be the most secret weapon in my hand!" ”
"In this way, you immediately find Li Yuanfang and lure them to me!" Lu Cheng commanded.
"Where are you?" Gu Yumei was a little surprised.
Lu Cheng's eyes were deep, revealing a scheming expression: "Tell him my identity as 'Lu Cheng' and lead him to catch me, I think with Li Yuanfang's cleverness, he will definitely make good use of 'me'!" ”
"Yes!"
Lu Cheng obviously had a draft in his heart, and seeing this, Gu Yumei answered and turned away. Urging a light body, he swept out of the hospital and quickly melted into the darkness.
Separated by a distance of dozens of zhang, Gu Yumei stopped, turned around and looked at the courtyard standing on the top of the peak, her eyes were very cold. Just now, what she said to Lu Cheng is naturally untrue, if you want to get rid of the snake spirit, it is not enough to get rid of Xiao Qingfang, if you don't really destroy the snake spirit, how can you have peace of mind in the future!
In the mountains, there are many snake holes and many eyeliners, Li Yuanfang carried Yu Wenzhong and Ruyan around it a few times, and it was inevitable that they would not leave traces, and Gu Yumei knew very well where they were.
In fact, the three of them were not far from the snake den where Lu Cheng was, and the distance in a straight line was only two miles. However, the mountain road is rugged, and it will still take some time, even if it is not a long distance.
In the middle of the mountain, there is a cave, and in the depths of the cave, a bonfire burns silently, and the light of the fire illuminates the figures of the three people on the stone wall on one side.
Yu Wenzhong was lying on the side, his face was blue, his mouth and eyes were closed, and he looked like he was dying. Ruyan hugged her legs, leaned against the cool wall, and fell asleep. As for Li Yuanfang, his eyes were slightly closed, his breathing was slow, and he was meditating, but he was always holding a chain knife in his hand, and in this dangerous realm, he always maintained the highest level of vigilance, and he could break out at any time.
Suddenly, there was a movement from outside the cave, his ears moved slightly, the knife was out of the sheath, and the figure was like a ghost. "Bell" a few times, after a few moves, turned over and retreated, holding a knife across his waist, Yuan Fang looked at the beautiful woman at the entrance of the cave with some surprise: "Who are you?" ”
"Xiaomei!" Ruyan's surprised voice sounded, and she stepped forward in three or two steps.
"Xian'er!"
"Are you alright?"
"I'm worried about your safety......"
The scene of the women's meeting always made the man feel embarrassed, Li Yuanfang's bitter and hateful expression narrowed slightly, and he inserted the chain knife back into his waist.
"Offended!" After the two women's greetings were over, Li Yuanfang arched his hand towards Gu Yumei, then stared at Gu Meiren and asked, "How did you find us?" ”
Yuan Fang was still very vigilant, and did not let down her guard because of the relationship between the second daughter and Yuan Langjun. Glancing at Li Yuanfang, Gu Meiren put away her smile and said coldly: "In this city mountain, there are many snake caves, and there are snake spirits' eyeliner everywhere, do you think it will be difficult to find you?" ”
"I said that in this deep mountain, there is no one in the wilderness, how can you encounter those farmhouses, it is estimated that they are all snake dens!" Ruyan looked scared: "Fortunately, we didn't rush to stay." ”
"In that case, are we not completely exposed to the eyes of the serpent spirit?" Li Yuanfang frowned.
"Or else?" Gu Meiren's gaze was still slanted at him.
Listening to Gu Yumei's unkind words, Yuan Fang's expression was slightly embarrassed, but Ruyan still came out to play a round: "He doesn't mean anything else, he is just in danger, so he has to be careful!" ”
Gu Meiren's expression eased a little, and she glanced at Yu Wenzhong, who was lying on the side of the mountain wall. Following his gaze, Li Yuanfang came back to his senses and said suspiciously: "We received your summons, and when we went to the small temple in the deep mountains, we didn't see you, but we saw Xiao Qingfang leading many snake spirit killers to chase and kill him, so we came to the rescue." What's going on? ”
"I saw it!" Gu Yumei shook her head and said: "It's also a coincidence, just in time for the snake spirit civil strife, Yu Wenzhong broke with the old master and Xiao Qingfang. At that time, I had to lie dormant for a while in order not to attract suspicion and attention. ”
"Then aren't you exposed now?" Ruyan reacted.
At the mention of this, Gu Yumei sneered disdainfully: "It's okay, I'm here to approach you on the order of Xiao Qingfang and lure you to the Dhara Land Altar!" She thought it was good, but unfortunately ......"
"The Altar?" Hearing this, Li Yuanfang's expression was solemn: "I still want to go to find it, for the arrival of adults, explore the way!" ”
"Don't take risks!" Listening to Li Yuanfang's meaning, Di Ruyan immediately persuaded.
"Xian'er is right!" Gu Yumei also shook her head at this time, looking like she was thinking about exterminating the snake spirit, and said: "If you want to break the main altar, you must first break the dozens of snake holes connected by secret passages in this mountain, so that the general altar will be cut off from the outside world, otherwise, once the main altar is there, it will react in time." Or let Xiao Qingfang withdraw in time, or let them prepare, if they want to break it at that time, I am afraid they will pay a double price! ”
"That's ......" After thinking carefully for a while, Li Yuanfang looked up at Gu Meiren: "You know the location of the snake cave in the mountain!" ”
"That's nature, by the order of the state, I've been secretly watching!" Gu Yumei nodded.
Yuan Fang immediately made a decision: "In this way, the two of you will take Yu Wenzhong and go out of the mountain immediately to find the adult." Then lead him to lead the army and pull out the snake cave in the mountain. I'll go to the main altar myself and find out what's going on over there! ”
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Gu Yumei pointed in the direction of the main altar: "The general altar is not as simple as you imagined, its internal structure is complex, and there are many organs...... It's useless to fight the main altar and rely on a large number of people! ”
Hearing Gu Yumei say this, Yuan Fang's brows were completely locked, and she looked like she had encountered a problem, and after thinking about it, she couldn't do it properly, and noticed Gu Yumei's expression that seemed to be smiling, so she asked: "Let's just say it, what can you do?" ”
Gu Meiren explained: "There is a snake den not far from here, and the staff on duty there is Lu Cheng, the servant of the old master. And the whole altar was designed and built by him, and he can be said to be very familiar with the organs and roads in the main altar......"
Hearing this, Li Yuanfang's eyes suddenly lit up: "That's the case." ”
"Don't be too happy, he is loyal to the old master, and now that the old master has returned, he will never betray the snake spirit!"
"Huh!" Yuan Fang showed a confident smile at this time: "The adult said that Xiao Qingfang would never spend so much effort to rescue an old master for no reason, there must be something else." That being the case, with Xiao Qingfang's style......"
"In this way, it is still the same as before, you immediately go out of the mountain and bring the officers and soldiers here!" Yuan Fang didn't finish speaking, he already had a plan in his heart, and made a decision without doubt: "Didn't Xiao Qingfang want you to lead me to the main altar?" I'll go! ”
