Chapter 1247: Tiger Roaring Ridge
Regardless of Chinese, Lu Yao naturally pushed the boat along the water, this time, although Qu Yixiong and Lu Yan felt much more comfortable, their hearts were terrified.
Qu Yixiong put one palm behind his back, rubbing it back and forth on his clothes, relieving the pain as much as possible, Lu Yan also hurriedly resisted the stinging pain in his mind at that moment just now, none of them thought that Lu Yao would have such cultivation at such an age.
looked at Lu Yao and the four of them again, and the contempt in his eyes disappeared without a trace, adding a little more respect.
"Master Lan, Gongzi Zhou, Gongzi Lu, Miss Lan, welcome to our Jingjiang, I am honored to carry out this investigation mission with you!" Guan Chinese naturally knew what had just happened, and when he spoke at this time, he was also much more polite.
"Mr. Guan, you are too polite, this time the four of us came from the northwest, and Mr. Lao Guan bothered!" Zhou Xiang was the oldest and most stable of the four, he stepped forward and said with a smile.
"Take care of each other, take care of each other!" Guan Chinese said with a smile: "Young Master Zhou, several people have worked hard all the way, or let's go to the hotel at the bottom of the mountain to rest for one night, how about entering the mountain tomorrow?" ”
"Mr. Guan, everyone is not an outsider, I don't say a lot of things, everyone knows, you don't have to rest, you tell me about the next plan, if it's convenient, let's go into the mountain now!" Zhou Xiang had already discussed it with Lu Yao and the others, and there was no need to discuss it at this time, so he said straight to the point.
"This ......" Guan Chinese hesitated for a moment, and seeing that Zhou Xiang and the others seemed to be ready, he made a decisive decision and said, "Since this is the case, then I will tell you about it!" ”
"Half a month ago, the national archaeological team disappeared mysteriously during an investigation in the Jingjiang Mountains, and this time everyone was fortunate to get together for the purpose of finding the whereabouts of the archaeological team." Guan Chinese said: "According to the information provided by Shangfeng, the last place where the archaeological team sent a distress signal should be the area of Tiger Roaring Ridge!" ”
"I don't have anything to say about the periphery of the Jingjiang Mountains, I believe you can find it from geography magazines or travel journals, the scenery is beautiful, and there is nothing dangerous." Guan Chinese continued: "However, this Tiger Roaring Ridge is not an ordinary place, I must say two more words!" ”
"Two months ago, there was a seven-magnitude earthquake in the Jingjiang Mountains, and some ancient cultural relics fell to the periphery along with the water of the Huolong River, and the Jingjiang Municipal Government reported the situation to the superiors in a timely manner, and the superiors sent a scientific expedition team to investigate, and finally believed that the most likely cultural relics in the Jingjiang Mountains should be this Tiger Roaring Ridge!"
"And the basis of their inference is that because Tiger Roaring Ridge is the most mysterious place in the Jingjiang Mountains, half a century after the founding of the People's Republic of China, except for one time when an archaeological team with the cooperation of the military has entered the range of Tiger Roaring Ridge, no ordinary people have ever entered it, so to speak, it is a place that has basically not been trampled by human footprints."
"Among our seven brothers, I am the only one who has been to Tiger Roaring Ridge, although it has been nearly fifteen years, but I remember what happened back then clearly!" Guan Chinese recalled the situation of entering the Tiger Roaring Ridge that year, still had lingering palpitations, took a deep breath, and was silent for a long time before continuing: "Back then, as a guide, I took a platoon of soldiers and more than a dozen top domestic archaeological experts into the Tiger Roaring Ridge, I thought it would be a relaxed and pleasant investigation, but unexpectedly, after entering the Tiger Roaring Ridge, I found that it was simply a hell on earth!" ”
"More than thirty of us went in, and in the end only thirteen of us came out alive, and the others all stayed there forever!" Speaking of this in Chinese, his eyes were already a little moist. Obviously, he not only has lingering feelings about what happened back then, but also harbors deep guilt.
Before coming, Dean Lan mentioned this matter to the four people, and at that time, the reason why Guan Chinese was recommended as the guide of the scientific expedition team was because he had grown up in Jingjiang City since he was a child and was familiar with some places in the Jingjiang Mountain Range, and on the other hand, because he was already a veritable immortal cultivator at that time.
Although his strength is only in the early stage of the Jindan Realm, in the eyes of everyone, his strength is definitely enough to be qualified for the position of guide.
However, no one expected that the expedition team of more than 30 people went in, and in the end only 13 people came out alive, and even Guan Chinese himself was seriously injured, if he had not returned in time to receive effective treatment, I am afraid that he would not be where he is today.
"Mr. Guan, what happened at that time, how could so many people die?"
"Could it be that there are some fierce birds and beasts in Tiger Roaring Mountain, or are you being ambushed by someone?"
Zhou Xiang and Lu Yao asked curiously.
"Huh!" Guan Chinese smiled a little miserably, and only said lightly after a long time: "You may not believe it when you say it, back then, we didn't say that we encountered some fierce birds and beasts, and our fully armed thirty people didn't even break through the periphery of Tiger Roaring Ridge, and they had already lost most of it, so to speak, it was an investigation without any gain!" ”
"This ...... This is the greatest shame of my life! ”
"Shhh
Everyone couldn't help but gasp, not only Zhou Xiang, Lu Yao, Lan Jing and Lan Wenwen were shocked, but even the six brothers and sisters who were in charge of Chinese were also quite shocked.
This is the most taboo secret buried in Guan Chinese's heart, and if it weren't for the fact that everyone had to work together to re-enter the Tiger Roaring Ridge, I am afraid he would never have said it in his life.
"Brother Guan, what's going on on the periphery of Tiger Roaring Ridge?"
Lu Yao listened to Guan Chinese's words, and couldn't help but have a trace of respect for him.
Overcoming the biggest obstacle in his heart, for the sake of the country, he was willing to re-enter the place where he had suffered for more than ten years, and his courage and spirit also infected Lu Yao.
Lu Yao's question was also something that everyone was curious about.
What was there on the periphery of the Tiger Roaring Ridge at the beginning, even the immortal cultivators of the Golden Pill Sutra were so embarrassed.
"At the beginning, when we were close to the periphery of Tiger Roaring Ridge for more than ten kilometers, I found that the atmosphere was wrong, the air was filled with heavy resentment and yin energy, at first, I didn't pay too much attention to it, after all, I was a person who cultivated immortals, and at that time, my cultivation had reached the Jindan realm, so I was naturally invincible in the world, but when we really got close to Tiger Roaring Mountain, I found that the resentment and yin qi there all broke out in an instant, far more than ten times better than before!"
"At that moment of resentment and yin qi erupted, five warriors died violently without warning in an instant, and everyone except me fell into a hallucination, as if they had lost their minds!" Guan Chinese said solemnly: "Cannibalism is just the beginning, there seems to be something extremely terrifying in that resentment that is constantly sneaking up on us, and I was also seriously injured by that ghost thing!" ”
"Resentment?"
"Is it a wraith?"
It's not the first time Lu Yao has encountered this thing, when he was in Pingyun Cave, he had encountered a resentful puppet, that is a kind of ghost thing that has evolved from a resentful spirit, if it weren't for the timely guidance of leaving the territory, I'm afraid Lu Yao himself wouldn't be alive today.
Guan Chinese glanced at Lu Yao, smiled bitterly, and continued: "Later, I resisted desperately, and finally returned to the safe area with twelve people. ”
"And for more than ten years, I have been reminiscing about the situation back then, and one day, I suddenly realized a very serious problem!"
"What's the problem?"
"That Tiger Roaring Ridge doesn't seem to be naturally formed at all, but is considered to be transformed, as for whether this is the case or not, I'm afraid we can only know if we go in again!" Guan Chinese said lightly.
Guan Chinese's words stirred up a thousand waves, and everyone began to talk about it.
After a while, Lu Yao, who had not spoken again, suddenly asked: "Brother Guan, since the scientific expedition team paid such a painful price back then, why did you choose to re-enter the Tiger Roaring Ridge this time, could it be that the resentment and yin qi on the periphery have changed?" ”
Lu Yao's question once again attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked at Guan Chinese, especially his sworn brothers.
"I can't guarantee if there has been a change, but judging from the distress signal sent by the scientific expedition team, they should have gone farther than our previous time!" Guan Chinese said: "And this time there is not even a single immortal cultivator in the team, I think they can go farther than we were before, the situation in Tiger Roaring Ridge should have changed, perhaps, it has something to do with this earthquake!" ”
"I see!"
"Brother Zhou, what should we do?" Lu Yao said secretly, looked back at Zhou Xiang and asked.
"Enter!"
Zhou Xiang pondered for a moment and said very simply.
"Okay, then let's go into the mountain now!" Lu Yao's thoughts were exactly the same as Zhou Xiang's, and he did not hesitate at all, and after answering a sentence, he looked at Guan Chinese and said, "Since everyone is here, why just go in and have a look, how about it?" ”
"Yes, let's go in and take a look, what is this Tiger Roaring Ridge like, listening to the words of the eldest brother, I am really a little curious!" Quyi Bear also echoed the road.
"Yes, we'll go into the mountain now, but I hope everyone can be more careful after entering Tiger Roaring Ridge, don't be careless!" Guan Chinese came this time, naturally he also wanted to go into the mountain to find out, and at this time, seeing that everyone had no different opinions, he smiled lightly and said.
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Let's go into the mountains!"
More than ten years ago, Guan Chinese was the cultivation of the early stage of the Jindan Sutra, and now, his cultivation has already reached the early stage of the Yuan Infant Realm, and three of his six brothers have reached the strength of the peak of the Jindan Sutra, as for the four Lu Yao, Guan Chinese does not need to ask, and knows that their strength is not bad.
Such a powerful team of immortal cultivators gathered in the direction of the Tiger Roaring Ridge in the Jingjiang Mountain Range so quickly.
There are many tourist attractions on the outskirts of the Jingjiang Mountain Range, and naturally there is no danger, if it weren't for the eleven of them to avoid ordinary tourists as much as possible, their speed could be faster.
An hour later, eleven people came to a range of about ten kilometers away from Tiger Roaring Ridge.
