Chapter 22: Wanting to Climb the Sacred Mountain

This time, Kong Xing pointed out the clues to Hua Banxue and Xiao Shi on their next move, and asked them to go to Xikang, which happened to coincide with Hua Banxue's previous plan.

In order to cheer up, Hua Banxue made Xiaoshi have confidence in the trip to Xikang.

Little Stone listened attentively.

Hua Banxue looked up at the sky, as if to check if the empty line had really gone far. She asked Little Stone, "Do you think there is a problem with the empty line on the monkey's judgment?" ”

Xiao Shi thought for a moment and said, "When I saw the monkey corpse, I was really frightened by the bloody energy. I didn't see exactly what the monkey's injuries were. Teacher, do you think the master is not telling the truth? ”

Hua Banxue shook her head and said, "It's not necessarily a lie. But I always felt like there were things he didn't tell us honestly. ”

Little Stone said disbelievingly, "But he did help us find the letter stone and told us where to go?" ”

Hua Banxue sighed and said, "I guess what Empty Xing found this time is a big trouble that Cloud City didn't expect. I can also see that although Cloud City has inherited the relics fortress of the Langmu people, they are very secretive about the Langmu people, and they seem to be determined to keep the Langmu people silent forever. ”

The little stone became more and more confused. He asked, "Teacher Hua, do we still want to go to Xikang?" ”

Hua Banxue said: "Actually, it doesn't matter. Although Cloud City is jealous of the Langmu people, he will definitely spare no effort to fight against Gu Luoke in front of him. At this point, we are kindred spirits. Add to that your constitution as a messenger, and I think, at least for now, that they have no reason to dig a hole for us. So it's okay for us to go. ”

Xiao Shi suddenly said with a sad face: "Teacher, I looked at the map, Xikangli is too far here." Are we going to go all the way through? ”

Hua Banxue said with a smile: "Although the Master of the Sky Line let us hone a lot along the way. But walking is not a grind, and it is a waste of time. I think we're still moving between a few big cities, and with my source force sensing clues, there will always be something to discover. ”

The two of them packed up in the small town and took the train all the way to Xikang. Their first target was Linzhou. The reason why he chose this place was that Hua Banxue made a decision after checking the information and contacting Professor Hua who was far away in Huajing.

Among the clues left by the empty line, words such as "falling rocks in the Tianshan Mountains" and "spears" are mentioned, and through this information, they found their way from historical legends. They targeted the Three Sacred Peaks in Linzhou. It is the holy place of the oldest Buddhist "Yongzhong Sect" in Xikang, and is known as the "father of the mountains of Xikang". At the same time, the adjacent Yabu Grand Canyon makes a horseshoe-shaped bend around it, and then extends in the direction of the Indian Ocean. Sansheng Peak also has another name "Zhuomu Mountain", its huge triangular peak body is covered with snow all year round, clouds and mist, and never easily reveals its true face, so it is also called "Shame Girl Peak". There are many interpretations of the names of the Three Sacred Peaks in Xikanghu, one is "thunder and lightning burn like fire", the other is "a spear piercing the sky", and the other is "a stone that fell from the Tianshan Mountains". The latter name comes from the "Battle of Menling" in the "Legend of King Gesar", in which the Three Sacred Peaks are depicted as "spears piercing the sky".

Hua Banxue also asked Professor Hua about the situation of Wang Zhifei and Qi Yuancheng, who were far away in the Eastern Kingdom and Northeast Province. Wang Zhifei was already on his way to Hell Valley at that time, while Qi Yuancheng fell off the cliff and was separated from the expedition.

After Hua Banxue learned the news of Qi Yuancheng, she suddenly became worried. She was eager to rush to the northeastern province to participate in the search. Professor Hua persuaded her: "Although Yuancheng's current situation is unknown, Lao Zhang and the others are already actively searching, and it will be useless for you to rush over now." ”

Hua Banxue understood that what her father said made sense, and in her anxiety, she simply closed her eyes and activated the spiritual source field force to try to send spiritual power in the direction of Northeast Province. But it didn't take long for her to give up in disappointment. Even if you use the power of the Shangxin Stone, you can only send your spiritual power to about 10 kilometers. But in this way, she calmed down, and she had a strange intuition in her heart.

Although Hua Banxue did not have the ability to predict the future that Kong Xing demonstrated, her intuition told her that Qi Yuancheng was not in danger of his life at the moment, but would have an unexpected gain.

After settling down, Hua Banxue took the small stone and headed towards Xikanglin Prefecture. After a long journey, planes, trains, automobiles and even donkey carts were used, and it was only with difficulty that we reached the foot of the Three Sacred Peaks.

Although Hua Banxue and Xiaoshi are the source field power, they are very unfamiliar with the plateau and snow-capped mountains. The two found a guide in a small village at the foot of the mountain who was willing to take them up the mountain. The guide's name was Tashi, and he was not very old, but he seemed very calm and honest.

When Tashi heard that the two were going to climb the snowy mountain, he was a little embarrassed. He said: "The Three Holy Peaks are the sacred mountains of our Xikang people. Although there are also many climbers, they are all professional mountaineering teams and are well equipped. Andβ€”" Tashi said worriedly, looking at the little stone, "β€”never before has a child as young as you climbed a mountain." Even I didn't try mountaineering until I was 16 years old. ”

Xiao Shi was a little unconvinced, and was about to show some skills, but Hua Banxue secretly stopped him with a consciousness connection.

Hua Banxue smiled and said to Tashi, "Guide Tashi, thank you. You're right, we need to do some preparations. And we're just hobbyists, and we don't climb too high. Just take us to an easier place. ”

Tashi was skeptical and first informed the two of them in detail about the precautions they needed to pay attention to and the equipment they carried. Later, he simply took them to the town to buy everything.

"You girls, a little kid, why did you come so far to climb the mountain?" Tashi was still puzzled.

Hua Banxue said mysteriously: "Brother Tashi, the Three Holy Peaks are the sacred mountains in your minds, and I am also a devout believer, and I also came on a pilgrimage. So you must help me fulfill my wish and climb Mount Kinabalu to see. ”

When Tashi heard that the two were believers, he became enthusiastic and took out his treasured equipment and lent them to them.

When Xiao Shi saw these equipment for the first time, he felt so fresh that he had a lot of fun. Hua Banxue insisted on paying Tashi, but Tashi politely declined. He said: "You are believers in the Three Holy Sacred Mountains, and if I take you on a pilgrimage, I will also receive the blessings of the Sacred Mountain, so I will definitely not accept your money." ”

Hua Banxue looked at Tashi's sincere expression, and her good impression of him suddenly increased.
