Chapter 80: Strange Winds
The old woman was obviously a little surprised, she looked Zhang Tian up and down for a long time, and asked, "Who are you?" How did you get up? ”
Zhang Tianduo also looked at the old woman in front of him, this is a very ugly old woman, full of white hair, a little hunchbacked, a mouthful of yellow teeth are incomplete, and her voice is hoarse and deep, which sounds cautious and panicked.
Zhang Tianduo didn't answer and asked: "Are you a yin and yang mother-in-law?" ”
The old woman smiled when she heard this, and the laughter made people want to take out their hearts and scratch them.
"I'm not." The old woman paused, and then said, "What are you looking for Yin-Yang Mother-in-law?" ”
"Someone asked me to come to her, mother-in-law, do you know where she lives?"
The old woman smiled again and said, "I know, I know." ”
Zhang Tian was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Mother-in-law, can you tell me where she lives?" ”
The old woman squinted and smiled: "Yes, but ......"
She pointed to the firewood in the corner of the cabin and sighed, "I'm so old that I can't even pick up an axe lately, alas......"
Zhang Tianduo understood what she meant, and said hurriedly: "Mother-in-law, I'll help you chop wood." ”
"Yo, that's great." The old woman opened the fence and motioned for Zhang Tianduo to come in.
There was not much firewood, it was nothing to Zhang Tianduo, who had long been accustomed to chopping firewood in Xiyunzhuang, he rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the pile of firewood, and said, "Mother-in-law, I helped you chop these firewoods, can you tell me where Mother-in-law Yin and Yang live?" ”
"Yes, you can." The old woman said slowly.
"Okay, look at me." Zhang Tianduo took a deep breath and leaned over to get the swarthy axe that had been placed in the place.
This surprised him: "This axe? ”
"Hey, hey, hey...... What's wrong? Didn't you say help me chop wood, young man? The old woman laughed.
Zhang Tianduo was shocked in his heart, this inconspicuous axe was as heavy as a thousand catties, and he couldn't pick it up for a while.
After stabilizing his mind a little, Zhang Tianduo said: "Mother-in-law, don't worry, I will help you chop this pile of firewood." ”
As he spoke, he picked up his magic power and took it again, and this time he finally picked up the axe.
Zhang Tianduo weighed it in his hand, this axe was one or two hundred catties, and he didn't know what it was made of, it was so heavy.
Cutting wood with such a heavy axe must be the same as cutting tofu, he erected a piece of firewood, and the axe fell in his hand, but there was a crisp sound of "ding", and this split failed to split the firewood in two, but his arm was shaken to pain.
"This firewood ......" Zhang Tianduo was surprised, how hard does this firewood have to be?
The old woman smiled very strangely: "Hey, hey, young man, if you can't cut this firewood, I won't tell you where Granny Yin and Yang are." ”
Zhang Tianduo could have ignored these things and looked for it slowly, but he had always been stubborn, and he said: "Mother-in-law, what I said was done!" ”
As he spoke, he stood up, picked up his strength, spotted the firewood, and after a loud shout, he slashed down.
There was a crisp sound of "ding", and the firewood was divided into two in response, and Zhang Tian took a closer look, and it turned out to be wrapped in a piece of copper.
"Mother-in-law, this is ...... Can such firewood be burned? Zhang Tianduo was puzzled, there was a copper block hidden in the firewood, no wonder he couldn't cut it just now, but he didn't know why the old woman did it.
The old woman didn't seem to hear Zhang Tianduo's words, and she said, "Very good, young man, you go on chopping, the old man still has to cook." ”
With that, she turned around and went back to the cabin.
Zhang Tianduo had no choice but to continue chopping firewood.
Every piece of firewood has a copper block hidden in it, so every time he splits it, he has to go all out, which makes his skills wear out very quickly, and he feels a little powerless after chopping a dozen pieces of firewood.
Zhang Tianduo had to sit down cross-legged, and recovered his strength.
After another trip to the Fa Sect, his skills recovered a little.
Chopped a few more pieces of firewood, and Zhang Tianduo was so tired that he was sweating profusely and panting like a cow.
"Hey, hey, lad, drink some water, take your time." The old woman stood by at some point, carrying a jug of water in her hand.
Zhang Tianduo didn't think about it, as soon as he took it, he poured it into his mouth, and drank a pot of water cleanly, and then he took a breath of satisfaction.
"Mother-in-law, how long have you been living here?" Zhang Tianduo asked casually.
The old woman squinted her eyes and pondered slightly, and said, "I can't remember the old body clearly, probably a few decades." ”
"The people in the town say that the yin and yang mother-in-law is very bad, isn't the mother-in-law afraid of her?"
"Hey, hey, mother-in-law is not afraid of her, she is afraid of mother-in-law."
Zhang Tianduo was stunned when he heard this, not understanding what the old woman meant.
"Okay, you go on chopping wood, the old man goes back to the house to rest."
Zhang Tianduo had no choice but to continue chopping.
From noon to nightfall, Zhang Tianduo rested and chopped, chopped and rested, only to be tired and weak, dizzy, and then finished chopping a pile of firewood.
"Mother-in-law, I chopped the firewood." After resting for a while, Zhang Tianduo shouted.
The old woman came out of the back room, glanced at the pyre, and said with a smile: "Young man, you are quite clever in doing things." ”
"Mother-in-law, you should tell me where Mother-in-law Yin and Yang live."
"Well, that's what you're saying, but it's already dark, and it's too dangerous to go to her, so you can stay with me tonight, and go to her early tomorrow morning."
Zhang Tianduo hurriedly said: "Mother-in-law, I'll go to her now, I can't wait." ”
The old woman was not reluctant, and said with a smile: "Since you want to go, there is no way, but you don't want to be old without reminding you, it is dangerous to pass from here." ”
As she spoke, the old woman pointed in a direction and said, "Go in this direction, you will see her dwelling for about two miles, be careful on the way, if you take a fork in the road, you will not survive." ”
"Thank you, mother-in-law." Zhang Tianduo was impatient, and after bidding farewell to the old woman, he rushed away in the direction pointed by the old woman.
Passing through a bamboo forest, there was nothing in front of him, and in front of Zhang Tianduo was a valley, looking down, it was unfathomable.
Zhang Tianduo frowned and said secretly: "How can there be a valley here?" How do I get there? ”
Just as he was thinking, there was a faint sound of the slight impact of iron in the night sky, and Zhang Tianduo heard the sound, only to see two looming black lines between the valleys that were shaking.
He ran closer to take a look, and then realized that the two black lines were actually two iron cables, and the slight impact sound just now was caused by the two iron cables hitting each other.
The wind between the valleys seemed to be strong, and the iron ropes shook violently, making a constant crashing sound.
Zhang Tian swallowed his saliva and thought: "I'm afraid that I'll lose my way around the past, and I don't know if I can reach the other side from other places, so I think I'll climb along these two iron cables." ”
Thinking of doing it, he slowly moved along the iron rope to the opposite side with one iron cable in one hand.
The two sides of the valley gathered about thirty meters, Zhang Tianduo climbed to the middle without much effort, at this time, a strong wind rushed up to the bottom of the valley, Zhang Tianduo was unexpected, almost blown down by this strong wind, fortunately he reacted very quickly, and grabbed the iron rope with both hands, which survived.
After a while, the wind calmed down slightly, and Zhang Tianduo secretly said that he was lucky, and he also understood why the danger in the old woman's mouth meant.
He just wanted to continue to climb forward, but there was a ghost crying wolf howl at the bottom of the valley, Zhang Tianduo felt bad, and as soon as he grabbed the iron cable, his whole body was blown up by the strange wind blowing up from the bottom of the valley.
He ...... ...... This wind ...... How...... What's going on...... "Zhang Tianduo couldn't even open his eyes when he was blown by the wind, and the sand and stones mixed in the wind hit his body even more painfully like a pinprick.
The wind blew more and more fiercely, Zhang Tianduo had no choice but to use his internal strength to resist, and I don't know how long it took, the wind finally subsided, Zhang Tianduo's body fell, only to feel that his arm was sore and unbearable.
He was panting heavily, he could barely breathe from the strong wind just now, if he didn't know how to breathe, he would have suffocated to death.
"This valley is so weird, I'd better climb over it." After slowing down slightly, Zhang Tianduo hurriedly crawled forward.
As soon as he crawled forward two or three meters, a sharp roar suddenly came from the valley, and the sound was like fingernails scratching a wooden plank.
Zhang Tianduo's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly hugged the two iron cables, and at this moment, a terrifying wind howled, Zhang Tianduo only felt as if he was hit by a wild buffalo in a wild run, and the huge impact made him almost let go of the iron cables.
He endured the pain swept by the terrifying wind on his body, and gritted his teeth desperately to persevere, but this wind seemed to be endless, and only blew Zhang Tian's soul-snatching scattered.
Under this terrifying and strange wind, his internal strength poured like a torrent, and in just a moment, Zhang Tianduo exhausted his internal strength.
Seeing that he was about to be blown away by this terrifying wind, Zhang Tianduo gritted his teeth, and he didn't care about anything else, he used the Qingxi Decision and the magic power of the method at the same time, and the consequences of the simultaneous operation of the two internal forces made him open his mouth and spurt out a mouthful of blood, but the blood was swept away by the wind and hit him in the face, as if he was stabbed by a sharp knife, and he almost let go of his hands in pain.
Zhang Tianduo endured the pain caused by the simultaneous operation of the two internal forces, and slowly, his internal strength began to recover bit by bit, with these internal forces, he finally withstood the power of the terrifying wind and persevered.
By the time the winds of terror had subsided, it was already dawn.
This terrifying wind that blew all night brought great pain to Zhang Tianduo, but it also brought him great benefits, just one night, his skills soared, which he never dreamed of.
And although he suffered a lot of internal injuries, he also successfully mastered the knack of running two internal skills at the same time, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.
Exhausted by the night's resistance, he climbed to the opposite side of the valley and fell into a deep sleep as soon as he lay down.
I don't know how long I slept this night, and when Zhang Tianduo woke up, he was surprised to find that he was lying on a soft bed, surrounded by a pleasant fragrance of flowers.
"Mother-in-law, let's play hide and seek." A childish voice came from outside.
Zhang Tianduo was slightly stunned, this is a child's voice, where is he?
"Mother-in-law, Sister Qing is bullying me again."
"Mother-in-law, Sister Qing took my doll."
There is more than one child, Zhang Tianduo was quite surprised, he sat up, felt that the bones of his whole body were falling apart when he moved slightly, gritted his teeth and endured the pain of his whole body and got out of bed, and when he wanted to go out to take a look, a familiar voice sounded: "You are looking for a beating, dare to complain to your mother-in-law, see if I don't beat your ass!" ”
It was the girl's voice!
