Chapter Twenty-Three: The Secret of the Gathering Immortal Valley is Attacked Again
The conversation between Jinming and Zheng Wei attracted Liu Mingyi's attention, which couldn't help but make Liu Mingyi think, maybe this is the reason why this death cycle is different, and even Liu Mingyi may start from this point to reveal the secret of why he has the ability to "return from death". But it's a pity that the conversation between the two after that has nothing to do with Taishan's "secret of life and death", which makes Liu Mingyi very depressed.
"What is the 'secret of life and death' of Tarzan you just mentioned?"
In the end, Liu Mingyi couldn't resist his curiosity and forcibly inserted it into the conversation between the two, and he asked his questions straight to the point.
Belch! Jin Ming and Zheng Wei were very surprised by Liu Mingyi's sudden question, but after a pause, the two laughed in unison.
"Hahaha, Brother Liu, I didn't expect you to be so interested in the theory of ghosts and gods, this is just some idle people's nonsense, where is it true!"
After the two laughed, Jin Ming said to Liu Mingyi, who was depressed, and Zheng Wei on the other side only nodded slightly, but did not speak.
"But ......"
Liu Mingyi has been for a long time, but he can't say bluntly that he has the ability to "return from death", and he doesn't know how to refute it for a while.
"Everyone dismount first, we will rest here tonight, and the road after that will be difficult, I am afraid that we will no longer be able to rely on horsepower."
At this moment, Sun Gan, who had been leading the way in front, suddenly stopped his horse and greeted everyone, so the conversation between the three of them was interrupted.
Phew—
Everyone dismounted one after another to gather to Sun Qian, at this time the moon and stars were scarce at night, and the mountains and forests on both sides were secluded and heavy, but they only heard the faint wind howling and did not see the shadow of the depths.
"Defu, get light, you two find a peaceful place, and we will rest here tonight."
Seeing that everyone gradually gathered together, Sun Qian said to Liu Mingyi and Jinming.
"No!"
Jin Ming changed his attitude of laughing along the road, and with a serious expression, he clenched his hands into fists and led away. Although Liu Mingyi was a little frightened in his heart, Sun Qianyou naturally had to obey him.
"Mingyi, I'll go with you."
Just when Liu Mingyi was about to set off to look around, Lu Ke, who had been silent all the way, suddenly walked up to his side and said to him, after speaking, Lu Ke looked at the principal Sun Qian as if asking for permission.
Well! Sun Qian paused and was about to agree, but Liu Mingyi suddenly jumped up.
"Slow! Big brother, you can stay here, Sun Sima is in danger and has a great responsibility, it is more appropriate for you to stay here to protect, I can look for it alone. ”
Liu Mingyi said eagerly, just when Lu Ke said that he would look for it with him just now, his heart suddenly trembled, and a strong sense of crisis arose, and this sense of crisis was very strong, which made him instantly doubt Lu Ke's proposal.
Could it be that it was Lu Ke who killed him before!
The suspicion that once generated, was unquenchable, made him resolutely refuse to be alone with Lücke, even though he had no evidence that Lüco killed him.
Belch! Sun Qian looked at Liu Mingyi and then at Lu Ke, the expressions of the two made him confused, Liu Mingyi's face was extremely pale under the moonlight, fine sweat covered his forehead, and on the other side, Lu Ke looked as usual, but the treacherous and cunning Sun Qian still caught a trace of doubt and disappointment on his face.
"What the hell happened between these two brothers?"
Different from Jin Ming and Zheng Wei, who only joined Liu Bei's forces later, Sun Gan knows very well about the relationship between Liu Mingyi and Lu Ke, the two were as close as brothers when they were in Xu Du, but how did they become strangers in just a few days, and even Sun Qian felt that Liu Mingyi seemed to be very afraid of Lu Ke, so afraid that he didn't dare to be alone with the other party, there must be something strange in this!
"Okay, in that case, Lu Ke, you stay, Zheng Wei, you can accompany Defu on a trip!"
Thinking about it, Sun Qian would not ask about the matter between the two in person, after all, there are more important things now, and it is not too late to ask all personal grievances when the matter is over, so he assigned Zheng Wei to accompany Liu Mingyi to find tonight's station.
In the end, it was Zheng Wei who accompanied Liu Mingyi to check around, and the two of them went deeper and deeper and gradually got farther and farther away from Sun Qian and others.
"Brother Liu, haven't you forgotten what you promised my master before!"
Just as the two of them walked into a secluded forest, Zheng Wei, who had been silent beside Liu Mingyi, suddenly said.
"'Juxian Valley', I naturally remember!"
Liu Mingyi's mind was still on the previous things along the way, and he almost didn't react for a while when he suddenly heard Zheng Wei's question, but after a little thought, he still understood what Zheng Wei was asking, "But Mount Tai is so big, where should this 'Juxian Valley' who only knows the name go to find it?" ”
"I don't know, but I just want to remind Brother Liu that this 'Juxian Valley' is the place where the legend of Mount Tai suppressed the 'secret of life and death'."
"Ahh
Liu Mingyi almost stumbled to the ground in surprise, he stopped and looked at Zheng Wei who was following him, he couldn't have imagined that the place Chen Dengtuo he was looking for was actually the same place he wanted to know, no wonder Zheng Wei vigorously denied it when Jin Ming mentioned the "secret of life and death" and "Taishan ghosts" just now, it turned out that the reason was that he didn't want Jin Ming to learn about the "Juxian Valley" from it.
"My master said that the search for this 'Juxian Valley' made me listen to Brother Liu, but my master also said that the search for the 'Juxian Valley' can only be known to you and me, and you are not allowed to leak half a sentence to others. ”
Sure enough, the reason why Zheng Wei denied it just now and the reason why he didn't mention the "secret of life and death" in front of Jinming were exactly the same as Liu Mingyi's conjecture.
"Can you tell me what your master Chen Deng is looking for this place?"
Although Liu Mingyi understood that "Juxian Valley" was the location of the "Secret of Life and Death", this made him even more confused, and he was a little confused about Chen Deng's purpose.
"Can't tell!"
Zheng Wei's answer was even more crisp.
"Okay, then you can always tell me why your master has to ask me to find this 'Gathering Immortal Valley'!"
Hearing Zheng Wei's answer, Liu Mingyi was very unhappy in his heart, which made him feel that he was being used and didn't know why he was being used, so he continued to ask.
"This ......"
For this question, Zheng Wei did not refuse, he hesitated for a long time and seemed to be thinking about whether to tell the other party, and finally he spoke again, "Don't you know?" ”
Belch! Originally, Liu Mingyi was still looking forward to Zheng Wei's answer, but it is said that as soon as the other party's words came out, Liu Mingyi rolled his eyes angrily, isn't this nonsense! If you know, why ask.
"Well, do you remember that you once met a person in Xuzhou City, who was dressed as a charlatan."
Seeing that Liu Mingyi really didn't know, Zheng Wei thought about it and reminded him again.
Well? Liu Mingyi thought about it carefully, and it took him a long time before he patted his head, "Are you talking about a middle-aged man in rags?" ”
"Exactly!"
Zheng Wei confirmed the answer, and Liu Mingyi suddenly realized that I am afraid that the incident between him and the middle-aged man on the street happened to let Chen Deng know, so there was the next thing.
But this is even more unreasonable, of course Liu Mingyi knows the magic of that middle-aged man, in fact, there are still people in this world who can see that he died once, which in itself shows that that person is extraordinary, but even so, what does this person have to do with Chen Deng, or what does it have to do with the "Juxian Valley" that Chen Deng is looking for, suddenly Liu Mingyi's heart moved, his eyes stared directly at Zheng Wei, isn't this person the best answer!
"What's wrong?"
Feeling Liu Mingyi's gaze, Zheng Wei only felt a chill on his body, and he took a heavy breath before suppressing the idea of wanting to beat Liu Mingyi.
"I want to ask, no matter how you look at this middle-aged man, what if I met him, what does it have to do with your master asking me to find the 'Juxian Valley'?"
Liu Mingyi deliberately pretended not to know anything about the person and asked.
"I don't know, but my master said that the person was related to the 'Juxian Valley'."
Zheng Wei explained that just when he wanted to say more things, dozens of torches suddenly lit up in the originally dark mountain forest, and in the firelight, Liu Mingyi saw a little cold light facing them upright.
"Hey, hey! The two of them wandered in Mount Tai late at night, they must not be good people, and the sons and daughters shot me with arrows to kill these two dog thieves! ”
A sinister laughter sounded, and then the sound of breaking through the air swished, Liu Mingyi's eyes were full of flowers, and only bursts of shouting and killing were left in his ears.
