Chapter 223: Descending the Mountain
How to get down the mountain is a difficult problem.
Mu Dianke stood in front of the roaring waterfall, looking at the misty valley at his feet, and said that it was not entirely true, and he was a little stunned.
Guanxinping is on the lonely peak, and the three surrounding mountains of Lianwu Mountain, the nearest is also separated by more than 200 zhang, and it is not possible to fly across by manpower.
Fifty or sixty zhang away from it, there is a line of mountain cliffs, which is as thin as a knife and can only accommodate one foot. And the wind on the top of the cliff is like rage, and it is difficult to stay on it for a long time.
Two of these cliffs form a cramped canyon.
At the bottom of the cliff is a waterway, and when you look at the boat on the water, you can only see a glimmer of sky above your head.
The reason why she knew so clearly was because Chang Jihai brought her up from there, but at that time, there was a rope chain between the mountain cliff and Guanxin Peak.
Now the chain has been removed.
She thought about it, running to help jump over the valley, it was too risky. Not to mention whether you can fly or not, there are only two thin cliffs at the end, and it is difficult to fall into the abyss.
Chang Jihai withdrew the chain, what she wanted to see was definitely not whether she was good enough in kung fu or brave enough.
What to see?
Mu Dianke sat on the edge of the cliff and recalled carefully: when Ji Hai took her over the rope chain that day, he also specially reminded her to pay attention to the slippage of her feet.
She glanced at it and saw that the chain was as smooth as new.
I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but now I think about it, but I feel a lot of guilt: the valley is full of clouds and mist all year round, and the humidity is extremely heavy, and even the best quality steel will rust over time. What's more, how can it be possible to maintain the original color and shine as new?
Unless the chain was new!
For the sake of style and decency, I deliberately put on a new one? This possibility is almost non-existent. Other families may do this kind of thing, but Changjiabao will definitely not.
Just before she went up the mountain, the original passage was broken? It's inevitable that it's too coincidental.
This involves a question, when the ancestors of Changjiabao set up Guanxinping, did they not consider the issue of future generations going up the mountain?
The chains will eventually decay, and if they are hung in a conspicuous place, anyone with better kung fu can walk through them......
Her heart moved, and she looked at the rising clouds under her feet, and suddenly a bold idea came to her, picked up a stone at hand, and threw it down the ravine.
Once you enter the empty valley, there is no sound.
She didn't give up, got up and went to the waterfall to move a few rocks, put them in a row, and kicked them down the mountain in turns.
The third block ran into a block.
Listen to the sound and distinguish the position, and the obstacle should be within three feet.
She couldn't help but laugh.
Cut into the stone wall with a logging knife, slowly fall with the help of force, and go down three zhang, and sure enough, there is a stone road across the valley in the clouds.
She now has a great increase in internal strength, and her body is also light, she jumped lightly, went back to the cliff, and carried the raft and a bundle of rattan rope that she had tied overnight yesterday, and crossed the stone path to the thin cliff.
The raft is hoisted into the waterway between the two cliffs with a rattan rope, and at the end, the end of the rope is tied to the sharp rock of the cliff and slides down the vine.
The waterways are long, twists and turns, like a water labyrinth.
Soon Mu Dianke found himself going back and forth in circles.
To say that her attainments in the five elements are not low, but she can't recognize it, thinking that there is no formation in this intricate stone forest, it is just a miracle of creation, and it is just a natural location.
She silently reviewed the route she had traveled in her mind and re-walked it. For each paragraph, carve a different mark, remembering the order.
It turned out to be back to the same place.
She was also tired from tossing, and sat on the raft with her knees crossed, looking at the sky speechlessly. My mouth was dry and my stomach was hungry, so I remembered that I was in a hurry to go down the mountain, not only did I not eat breakfast, but I also forgot to bring water and dry food.
It's also that she's too confident.
thought that Chang Jihai could easily bring her in, and she could easily walk out - the generous gift was really not so easy to receive. dog
It's not enough to test it.
It rained a good day.
Mu Dianke was locked in a narrow waterway with nowhere to hide, nowhere to go, and was drenched into a soup chicken.
But the raft moved.
Because the water is surging in the way.
Mu Dianke was ecstatic in his heart.
She knew that a lower part of the waterway, which was connected to the green water lake at the end of the channel, must have been the result of a torrential rain, and the lake swelled for a while, and flowed downward.
Then follow the direction of the water flow to row forward, after a stick of incense, to reach a hole, the sky is white, is undoubtedly the exit.
Outside the waterway is an endless lotus field.
A lake is covered with blue lotus, half a pond of red flowers, white clouds are at the top, and the blue sky is thousands of miles.
Mu Dianke was so excited that she screamed a few times, if she wasn't worried about the unstability of the raft, she would have wanted to stand up and stomp her feet twice.
At this time, it was almost noon, the rain had stopped and the clouds had closed, and the sun was strong.
Mu Dianke's soaked clothes were quickly dried, and he picked a few lotus pods to satisfy his hunger, rested for a while, and swept the lotus leaves forward.
Outside the lotus field is Daoshui Bay, where some unknown trees grow in the water, and the sparse branches are reflected in the water, which is quite poetic.
In the middle of the inlet, there is a water zhu, a man who looks like a scholar sits under the tree and plays the guzheng, looking about forty years old, with a jade crown and hair, and a graceful appearance.
There is a light boat tied under a sparse tree near the water.
The breeze blows slowly, and the scenery enters the scene with everyone, like the ancient style picture scroll depicted in the Book of Songs.
Mu Dian can hear that the sound of the zither is also high and far-reaching, which shows that this person's unusual mind and style, and when he was concentrating and intoxicated, the scholar looked up and stopped plucking the strings.
As if with a smile, he watched her drift over on a raft.
"How did the girl get here?" The scholar asked.
Listening to that tone, it was as if he knew himself.
Mu Dianke was puzzled in his heart, but he didn't know the identity of this person, so he didn't dare to answer rashly, but said: "I got lost and drifted here along the current." Mr. Disturb! Dare to ask sir, where is this place going to come from? β
The scholar smiled: "There is no exit here. β
Seeing Mu Dianke's suspicious look, he said: "This is the forbidden place of Changjiabao. The place where the girl came just now is the Jingwei Maze, and it will be sealed at noon. The girl couldn't get out, so she could only go to Changjiabao with me. β
Sure enough, it's the people of Changjiabao.
can freely enter and exit the forbidden land, and the status should not be low, Mu Dian thought for a moment and asked, "You are Min Ye?" β
The scholar smiled, "Fourth Miss has good eyesight." β
Hold the kite and get up, hop on the boat, still and moving, the posture is elegant and incomparable, with an innate nobility.
Turning his head and smiling: "There are still five miles of waterway to Changjiabao here, and although the fourth lady's raft is strong, it is not fast." How about I piggyback on Miss Four? β
"There's Master Law." Mu Dian can give up.
Yumin didn't look like she was rowing, she was writing. I took the bamboo artemisia with one hand, and put it on the surface of the water at will, and I didn't even hear a wisp of the sound of the water, but the boat suddenly came out of the flat water for four or five feet.
The water marks on the stern of the boat slowly dispersed, reflecting the shadows of the high and low trees on the water, which was really poetic.
Mu Dianke was still a little confused, and it didn't feel like it was real.
ββThis gentle and elegant scholar is actually one of Changjiabao's "double knives", and Yumin, the "show knife" who is as famous as Liangqing?
Thinking of Liangqing's long-strained, expressionless face, she couldn't help but laugh.
Speaking of which, I miss my good master a lot.
