Chapter 299: Masked Man
For the rest of the day, Lin Ruan still did not leave the top of the mountain.
In addition to eating and convenience, she has been guarding the top of the mountain, using her ability to manipulate the birds to search around the nearby mountains.
However, several nearby mountains have been searched several times, and no other anomalies have been found.
Instead, Lin Ruan's abilities were drained several times.
While she can get birds to take her far away when she upgrades, the farther she goes, the faster the ability drains. The area of Shenwu Mountain was originally very large, and although those mountains were not as big as Shenwu Mountain, they were not small, so even if Lin Ruan only controlled a bird to search, it would be very energy-consuming.
Seeing that there was only one night left in the time given by Xiao Jingchen, Lin Ruan couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
I searched all the nearby mountains, but I couldn't find them, where were those people hiding?
Lin Ruan was a little anxious, and his legs were a little numb, so he got up and stomped his feet, wanting to move his muscles and bones.
The top of the mountain was not flat, and Lin Ruan's legs were a little numb, so she stomped down, slipped under her feet, and almost tripped over.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed through my mind.
Since those people are not in Mount Mochizuki, nor are they in other nearby mountains, is it possible that they are hiding in Shenwu Mountain?
Lin Ruan's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked down at the bottomless cliff of Shenwu Mountain.
The back of Shenwu Mountain is full of cliffs, and the terrain is very complex, and even ordinary beasts dare not set foot in it.
But if the Dark Pavilion wants to hide the most important core power, this kind of place is definitely the best choice for them!
Thinking that there might be a core team of the Dead Soldiers Organization hidden under his feet, Lin Ruan couldn't help but feel a cool breath from the soles of his feet.
Fortunately, she found an abnormality when she went up the mountain that day, otherwise maybe one day, her treasure place would have been served in a pot.
Lin Ruan clenched his fists and quickly summoned several owls with his abilities.
These big guys waved their wings, nimbly shuttling between the cliffs on the sinking black, and their two big eyes could clearly transmit everything in the darkness back to Lin Ruan's mind.
After searching the mountains for nearly an hour, an owl finally discovered the anomaly.
In the darkness, a figure suddenly tapped the stone hanging on the mountain under his feet, and his body deftly "walked" on the mountain overhang, and then the figure stopped in a pile of strange stones.
It was a man with a silver mask on his face, which covered his entire face, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed. Under the moonlight, the mask glowed with a cold light, and on the cliff of this chaotic stone being, it looked particularly penetrating.
Lin Ruan hurriedly let the owl fall on a nearby branch.
The man heard the sound of the owl flapping its wings and glanced over the side.
Lin Ruan "saw" the man's eyes clearly, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, which were a pair of narrow eyes with single eyelids, which looked ruthless and cold-blooded. With just these eyes, Lin Ruan knew that this person was a killing machine without humanity. Even through the eyes of the owl, Lin Ruan could feel the bloodlust inside. She even felt that the man would raise his hand and kill the owl in the next second.
But unexpectedly, the man did not do that, but put his hand to his mouth and whistled towards the sky.
Then, Lin Ruan heard an eagle roar.
An eagle with wings spread about a meter wide descended from the sky and landed steadily on the man's shoulder.
The man turned and patted somewhere on the stone.
"Hula-"
The sound of stones rubbing sounded, and Lin Ruan's heart trembled, it turned out that there was a secret room here, no wonder!
She had already seen this side of Shenwu Mountain with her ability before, and she didn't find anything abnormal, it turned out that these people had built a secret room here!
The door opened, and the man quickly dodged inside, and then the door shut.
And at the same moment, Lin Ruan's ability had instantly attached to the eagle on the man's shoulder.
The secret room was brightly lit, and completely different from the primitive and rugged style of Mochizuki Mountain opposite, this cave was full of luxury, the ground was paved with a single piece of white marble, and the top of the cave was inlaid with dozens of night pearls, large and small, and even the seats were plated with a layer of gold.
Lin Ruan couldn't help but swallow her saliva fiercely, she didn't know that her Shenwu Mountain still had such a "treasure" hidden.
Just thinking of who owns this "treasure", Lin Ruan couldn't help but feel a sudden shock in his heart.
No longer thinking about it, Lin Ruan began to control the eagle to carefully examine it in this cave.
This cave, slightly smaller in scale than the one in Mochizuki Mountain, is also a hall, there is a passage on each side, and Lin Ruan can't see the situation in the passage, after all, the eagle she controls is standing on the shoulder of that person, and she doesn't dare to let the eagle make any excessive moves. She only had time to count the chairs in the hall with the eagle's eyes.
Connected to the main seat, there are a total of twenty-one chairs.
The man walked to the other passage, stood in front of a stone door, pressed the mechanism on the wall, the man walked in, and placed the eagle on a shelf.
Lin Ruan controlled the eagle and looked at this stone room, the stone room was very spacious, at least about 100 square meters, and it was divided into several areas, and the area where the eagle was located should be the person's study.
Further inside, presumably the man's bedroom. The decoration in this stone room is similar to the outside, with brilliant gold walls and the word "rich" everywhere.
Lin Ruan was about to take another look at the scene in the stone room, when suddenly, a woman's soft and suppressed voice came from the bedroom.
She was an adult in her previous life, so she naturally knew what that voice meant.
I didn't expect that the people in this dark pavilion would still raise women in such a place, aren't they afraid of exposure?
But seeing that the Dark Pavilion even dared to kill the Jinyi Guard, and even the emperor dared to pull off the horse, what else was there to be afraid of.
Lin Ruan was not interested in using his abilities to listen to such things, so he cut off the connection with the eagle.
The situation was almost touched, Lin Ruan took the big tiger and quietly went down the mountain, and he didn't dare to take his steps seriously, for fear of attracting the attention of the people in the stone room.
Thinking that there was such a killer organization hidden on the back side of the mountain, Lin Ruan was very worried in his heart, for fear that the big tigers would be in danger.
After thinking about it, Lin Ruan said to Dahu: "Otherwise, you and Xiaohu and I can go down the mountain and live for a while." ”
The big tiger shook his head and refused to go down.
They are used to running in this mountain, and when they come to live with Lin Ruan, they are afraid that they will be trapped in the house every day, and they will not be able to stand it at all.
Lin Ruan also knew that this was unrealistic, so he had to give up this plan.
Nervously descending the mountain, Lin Ruan returned home, lit an oil lamp and drew all the information about the stone chamber he had just discovered, and marked where it was in the mountain.
By the end of the day, it was already getting dark.
When Aunt Zhou found her at home, she couldn't help but say, "You girl, why do you always come back at night?" ”
