Volume 1 Born at the Right Time Chapter 96 Night Exploration of Luofu Mountain (1)
There was no more idle errands on the road, and at noon, the convoy successfully crossed the Kunwu Mountains into the border of Daliang Kingdom, and the group finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Jiansheng, who was originally half-awake and half-asleep in the carriage, seemed to smell some kind of familiar smell, hummed an extremely comfortable tone in his throat, rubbed his eyes, lifted the curtain blocking the carriage, squinted and looked out of the car for a good time.
Just when he was falling asleep, other people in the carriage began to talk about what had just happened, especially the unknown code words of the ascetic and Xiao Jiansheng, which made many people speculate, and a bold guess could not be affirmed by the owner after all, so he was bored and chatted about the customs of Daliangguo, and Xiao Jiansheng heard some in a daze.
Although the area of Daliang Country is not large, God seems to favor this land, Daliang Country has many mountains, and all kinds of birds and animals also like to live here, because the hills and forests in the south are evergreen all year round, and it is said that it is difficult to see snow scenes in Daliang Country.
Xiao Jiansheng looked at the rolling hills seriously, smelling the fragrance of wild flowers and weeds sent by the mountain breeze, as if he had returned to the mouth of the mud well, especially when he saw the pigeon flowers and trees that were taller than the mouth of the mud well, and he had a lot of thoughts.
At this time, Shi Qianyu's chin rested on the knees of his legs, a pair of clear and transparent eyes shone like a clear spring, and he seemed to have been keeping this posture and staring at Xiao Jiansheng quietly for a long time, with a trace of drowsiness in his big round eyes, seeing that Xiao Jiansheng woke up, Shi Qianyu smiled and said with resentment: "You are finally willing to wake up, do you want my senior sister to introduce you to the customs of Daliangguo?"
Xiao Jiansheng looked at Shi Qianyu like an idiot, and replied incomprehensibly: "Daliangguo...... Are there many beauties? ”
Shi Qianyu snorted, his angry lips turned white, and he decided to ignore Xiao Jiansheng again.
Shi Qianyu and the others in the carriage said: "According to Huang Juesheng's arrangement, go to Luofu Mountain to set up camp first, and then send someone to get in touch with Huo Hai in Luofu Mountain. ”
Shi Qianyu just finished speaking, Xiao Jiansheng just smiled, the smile was very innocent, like him, a child who has been crawling in the mountains since he was a child, really doesn't know what it is, but can make good use of the abundant breath in the mountains and forests to practice well.
Shi Qianyu patted his chest lightly, but his eyes were white.
Luofu Mountain is not high, you can see the true face of the whole mountain from a distance, the mountain is thick green, all kinds of trees are all over, the shape is like a half-cut horse body that falls into the earth, the horse's head, the horse's back, and the horse's tail are all clearly identifiable, the mountain is covered by humid clouds and fog, and it looks like the whole mountain is held up by the clouds and mist.
When the convoy had not yet passed the foot of Luofu Mountain, there was actually no way to find it, and the rest of the journey relied on a few strong men to drive the carriage to press a path between the green grass and the woodland.
According to the map in the hands of Shi Qianyu, there is an abandoned sect in Luofu Mountain, just to do a temporary foothold, just into the mountain not long ago, sure enough, not far away found a dilapidated building built by the mountain, now it is already people walking tea cool, the steep stone steps and those dark buildings are full of vigorous weeds, all the pavilions and pavilions are only left with the last two-story pavilion, the pavilion momentum is quite magnificent, but the dilapidated is terrible.
The crowd got off the car and landed, and several guides drove the carriage into the stable at the foot of the mountain to feed, Shi Qianyu waved to everyone: "This was originally the territory of the Shenyang Palace, a few years ago the Shenyang Palace was jointly bulldozed by several major sects, and this place is also deserted. ”
A woman in the crowd suddenly said, "Senior Sister Qianyu, have there been many deaths here?"
Before Shi Qianyu could explain, someone said: "Yes, the night here is particularly gloomy, I'm afraid, if Senior Sister Lin has any inconvenience at night, you can ask the senior brothers for help." ”
The girl named Han Lin said angrily: "If you want to be beautiful, I will look for Senior Sister Qianyu at night." ”
Just when the group was about to climb half of the stone steps, I don't know who joked and said: "I think you just think of the beauty, Senior Sister Qianyu may not be looking for anyone." ”
It caused a lot of laughter.
Shi Qianyu's face was slightly red, and the group walked up the stone steps, straight to the gray two-story pavilion located at a height of 100 zhang, the plaque on the door of the pavilion has been destroyed, and the two doors with serious paint stripping are also open, and the pavilion is in a mess, with all kinds of broken swords, tables and chairs, lampposts, etc. scattered all over the place.
Xiao Jiansheng did not follow everyone in, he stopped at a stone fence in front of the pavilion, raised his eyes and looked into the distance, at this moment a black dot located in the sky thousands of zhang high attracted his attention, the black dot hovered over this dilapidated sect for a long time, and only disappeared behind the mountain after almost half a pillar of incense.
Xiao Jiansheng just smiled, he didn't pay attention to it, he couldn't pay attention to it, the big bird was thousands of feet away, even if he had a bow in his hand, he couldn't hold it, so he simply walked down the stone steps.
Xiao Jiansheng said to the bearded man in the stable that he borrowed a fast horse, don't look at the rudeness of these strong men, but his mind is no worse than that of normal people, at first the bearded man did not agree to borrow the horse, and listed a bunch of rules of the Xingyuan dart game, Xiao Jiansheng had to say that he had time to exchange with them about the experience of refining the body, and the bearded man smiled and led a dark horse out.
Ma Er recognized Sheng, at first he didn't pay attention to Xiao Jiansheng at all, and he also raised his hooves to greet him on the legs, Xiao Jiansheng had to use his housekeeping skills and picked up some of the most tender grass in the grass, so that the black horse who deceived obediently obeyed.
Xiao Jiansheng turned over and went straight to the depths of Luofu Mountain, since he planned to set up camp here, the surrounding environment must be understood.
One person and one horse passed through several mountain streams, and also met some local cultivators on the way, in Xiao Jiansheng's opinion, these people are some cultivators of the second and third realms, and their qualifications are also average, and they seem to be diligent and able to make up for their shortcomings, for those people, Xiao Jiansheng has something strange and powerful on his body, so many people are avoided, only some bold ones will come over and talk cautiously for a few words, Xiao Jiansheng always keeps smiling, and tries his best to explore something with these people.
For example, the sect or sect where these practitioners belong has often heard some movement in the dead of night recently, so they will regularly close the palace door before dark at night and refuse any visitors, and for example, they used to practice in the mountains, but recently a group of people have come to the mountains, all of them have raised their eyebrows, making people dare not approach, and their cultivation places have also shifted from the mountains to the bottom of the mountains.
Next, Xiao Jiansheng wandered around Luofu Mountain for a while, and found no abnormalities. Although Luofu Mountain does not have the momentum of the Kunwu Mountains, it also winds and stretches for hundreds of miles, not to mention hiding a few people, even if it hides the army all the time, it is more than enough.
When it was almost dark, Xiao Jiansheng stopped in front of a small sect, the heavy mountain gate was closed, and it was dead and quiet inside, only the faint light showed that there were still people moving inside, which was a good confirmation of the words of the few cultivators just now.
Xiao Jiansheng wanted to see what the name of this small sect was, but he turned around and didn't have any plaques and inscriptions, and he couldn't figure it out.
After nightfall, Xiao Jiansheng returned to the ruins of the Shenyang Palace, the second-floor pavilion has been cleaned up, and there is a row of lamps and candles behind the door, the light is not very bright enough to illuminate the hall on the first floor, and everyone sees Xiao Jiansheng coming back and surrounds it.
Shi Qianyu separated the crowd and looked at Xiao Jiansheng unhappily and said, "Do you know that the outside world of Luofu Mountain is not safe now, and everyone who is harmed by you is worried." ”
Soon, someone laughed and said: "Senior Sister Qian Yu is worried alone, we have never worried about the safety of this junior brother, we are worried about the safety of others." ”
Xiao Jiansheng nodded a little embarrassedly and said, "This senior brother is right, in fact, I will be safer in the mountains." ”
Next, Xiao Jiansheng told everyone about the situation he inquired about along the road, and everyone couldn't help but cry out for a long time.
In the evening, Shi Qianyu specially convened everyone to have a short meeting, the focus was to settle everyone before the Wuji Palace had not sent a master to sit in the town, try not to go out at night, if necessary, you can be together, as well as some trivial matters, such as how to change shifts at night, how to assign men and women to stay, and so on.
In the middle of the night, the cold beam under the crescent moon will reflect the hazy reflection of the mountains, it stands to reason that Luofu Mountain at night should be very quiet, but it gives you a sense of killing, Xiao Jiansheng because he rested too much during the day, and there was no sleepiness at night, so he took advantage of the time when others were asleep, and quietly walked down the second floor with a sword. He meditated on the platform in front of the pavilion, but he couldn't calm his mind, so he simply walked down the stone steps, where the previous buildings had collapsed, and he simply cleaned up the debris under the ground and practiced the sword, which could indeed calm his mind.
And what he practiced was also the foundation of the swordsmanship taught by the senior sister, some of the most basic moves, after a few trips, he was already sweating profusely, and his spirit became more and more vigorous when the night wind blew, Xiao Jiansheng simply did not rest, and the long sword continued to dance with countless evil winds.
At this moment, a figure pushed open the door on the second floor, jumped up and fell in front of Xiao Jiansheng, and the person who came said said with a smile: "This sword can kill Hua Tangchun, and the one who died is not wronged." ”
These words obviously had the intention of flattery, but Xiao Jiansheng ignored them.
He was quite slow to take out the sword and retract the sword just now, and he didn't deliberately pursue the so-called sword intent, aiming to experience the power of the sword itself, and he also heard that the dragon blunt sword was stained with the blood of too many people, and such a good sword was afraid that it already had its own spirituality.
Xiao Jiansheng didn't break Chu Feng's words, turned around and said, "You shouldn't be here to praise me, you have something to say." ”
Chu Feng awkwardly pointed to the depths of Luofu Mountain and said with a smile: "Are you interested in finding out?"
Xiao Jiansheng looked at Chu Feng, dressed in a black night suit, with only a short sword on his waist to facilitate his movements, but he was fully prepared.
Xiao Jiansheng nodded.
In the night, Xiao Jiansheng and Chu Feng walked down the stone steps, and their figures quickly disappeared into the night.
Just then, a window on the second floor was pushed open.
