Chapter 4: The Valley of the Wicked
Chen Beiluo and Bai Ziyi walked slowly along the mountain road.
In the deep twilight, in the miserable clouds, a light suddenly appeared.
It was a Kong Ming lantern made of green lanterns, cleverly embedded in the shelter between the mountains and rocks, and in this poor mountain and evil valley that seemed to be gloomy, the phosphorus looked like a ghost fire.
Under the ghostly fire, there are two lines of words engraved on the mountain rock!
Entering the valley is like climbing to the sky.
Come and go this way.
Under the two lines, there is an arrow, pointing to a winding mountain road, Bai Ziyi used his eyes, and naturally saw that this road led to the valley embraced by the four mountains.
Although the Kunlun Mountains are dangerous, the road cleverly passes through the mountains.
The valley of the wicked is the bottom of the valley surrounded by mountains, and it is the way into the valley, not only upward, but gradually downward.
And the mountain road is becoming more and more tortuous, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see five feet away.
But suddenly, the eyes suddenly opened up, and in the poor mountains on all sides, a piece of light suddenly miraculously appeared, like a star with ten thousand points, dazzling people's eyes.
The Valley of the Wicked imagined by the people of the rivers and lakes is naturally indescribably gloomy and dark, and at this moment, the Valley of the Wicked is a glorious light.
But instead of making the Valley of the Wicked less mysterious, this light made the Valley of the Wicked even more indescribably weird.
What's going on in the Valley of the Wicked?
Chen Beiluo was quite curious in his heart, although he had already understood it when he read books in his previous life, he had to see the specific situation in person.
Under the light, I saw a stone plaque standing next to the road.
Into the valley, into the valley, never be a slave.
After this stone monument, the road suddenly became flat, like a mirror under the lights, and the light could be seen, but Chen Beiluo also knew that this flat road was also the most dangerous road in the world, and every step they took was closer to danger and death.
After all, Yan Nantian had also suffered setbacks here.
However, he didn't care at all, and his expression was still so leisurely.
There are no gates, no towers, and no fences.
This valley of the wicked looks like a mountain village, and the houses are so quiet and peaceful under the illumination of the lights.
Each house is exquisitely built, with bright lights shining through the closed doors and windows.
Suddenly, on the road ahead, someone came up.
Bai Ziyi's heart tightened, and the hand holding the reins was already sweating, he knew that in this instant, there would be an endless stream of poisonous hands, and only the bloody battle would come!
Unexpectedly, the two people who came over didn't even look at them, and both of them were dressed in extremely gorgeous clothes, and they walked past him.
Bai Ziyi didn't see their faces clearly, he saw that there were more and more people on the road, but no one even looked at them! When they walked into the Valley of the Wicked, which was regarded as a forbidden place by people in the martial arts in the world, it was no different from walking into other prosperous and peaceful towns and markets!
Chen Beiluo suddenly spoke: "Senior brother, are you hungry?" ”
The voice was warm and gentle, like a spring breeze blowing through Bai Ziyi's body in March, and like a clear spring, gurgling into Bai Ziyi's heart.
Bai Ziyi suddenly stopped being nervous, and said with a faint smile: "Well, I'm really a little hungry." ”
Chen Beiluo said: "Since you are hungry, you have to eat, do you say?" ”
Bai Ziyi said: "Of course, people are iron and steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry." ”
Chen Beiluo said: "Then what if someone has a treat?" ”
How did he know that someone was going to invite him to dinner, and that he was still in this mysterious valley of the wicked.
Of course, Bai Ziyi didn't know, but this didn't prevent him from being in a good mood.
I saw him laugh and said, "Then I have to go even more, otherwise it won't be a waste of the master's heart." ”
Chen Beiluo smiled and said: "Okay, let's eat big today." ”
Bai Ziyi said: "Where to eat?" ”
Chen Beiluo stretched out his hand and said, "Oh, isn't that it?" ”
Bai Ziyi looked fixedly, and there was indeed a door open in front of him.
Inside the door, there seems to be the aroma of wine and food.
The two of them walked in.
In the elegant hall, there were five or six elegant tables, and there were two or three tables with a few people sitting next to them, drinking and laughing lowly.
One of them was tall and burly, with a dignified appearance, except for one mouth that seemed to be much larger than the average person.
The open door looked like a hotel, but it looked much more refined and elegant than in front of any hotel in the world.
The two of them found a table and sat down, only to see that there was nothing unusual in this hotel, the few people who were drinking, dressed in gorgeous clothes, talking and laughing calmly, looked like the poor and vicious people who had fled in the poor mountains.
Chen Beiluo is not surprised, because the more traitorous and evil people are, the more they can't see it on the surface.
If it is full of fierce faces, others should be wary when they see it.
Where else can you do truly evil?
As soon as the two sat down, a green-clothed girl with bright eyes and bright teeth and a clever smile walked over with a small waist twisting her waist, and the autumn waves in her eyes were about to drown Chen Beiluo, and she secretly praised in her heart, what a beautiful young man with a beautiful demeanor.
She doesn't know how many beautiful young men she has seen in her life, but none of them can compare to the one in front of her, even if she was Jiang Feng, the first beautiful man in the rivers and lakes, compared with him, it is slightly inferior.
The girl was holding two plates of wine and food in her hands, the aroma of the wine was exceptionally clear, and the dishes were even more exquisite.
"Good wine."
Chen Beiluo suddenly praised, and then poured a cup for himself and Bai Ziyi.
"Come on, come on, junior brother, you will also pay for it."
Bai Ziyi picked up the wine glass carved from jasper and drank it clean.
"It's a good wine, indeed."
Bai Ziyi shook his head and pretended to say.
In fact, he didn't know how to drink, he just felt a hot current down his throat, a little bitter and choking. But it doesn't prevent him from being elegant, in the small talk books he has seen in the past, heroes are like this.
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then she reacted, her face changed, it turned out that the wine in her hand had arrived in front of the overly beautiful young man in front of her.
What a terrifying speed!
What a terrifying martial arts!
The girl's heart was horrified, but in an instant, she calmed down. Because she knew that whoever drank her wine would never survive.
I saw her smile: "Hehe, it's good if the two Taoist elders like it." ”
Walking on the rivers and lakes, there are these kinds of people who cannot be messed with, that is, monks, beggars, old people, women and children.
Let's talk about beggars first, don't you know that the beggar gang has been the largest gang in the world since ancient times, and their members are all over the world, and they are actually the largest faction in the world.
Let's talk about the old man, many of the rivers and lakes are well-hidden predecessors, if you offend you, you will not have good fruit to eat, and if you have a good temper, you will be teased at most, in case you meet a ruthless master, you will lose a layer of skin if you don't die.
And women are originally red-faced and troublesome, especially there are many bad women in the rivers and lakes, as long as you get into trouble, your troubles will never end.
As for children, people who should not appear on the rivers and lakes have appeared, naturally not an easy person, as the saying goes, there must be demons when things go wrong.
Finally, there are the monks, they are not only strong in martial arts, they have always been authentic in martial arts, but also there are people behind them, the power is huge, and the government and local forces are intertwined, and they have disputes, and it is easy for the family to be ruined.
But just as the person riding a white horse is not necessarily a Tang monk, the person wearing a Taoist robe is not necessarily a Taoist priest.
What's more, the wine has entered her throat, what else does she have to worry about!
Therefore, the girl smiled very sweetly.
Chen Beiluo was also laughing, he smiled very brightly: "If you like it, you naturally like it, but no matter how good the wine is, how can it be compared to a beauty like jade." ”
The girl couldn't help but blush slightly, lowered her head, and seemed to be very shy.
Chen Beiluo's smile was even brighter, and he chanted leisurely: "Looking forward to the waves, a little dodge is not lovely." A small halo and red tide, low eyes and silent waves. ”
The girl's face turned even redder, and she whispered, "Dao Chief, you can also taste it...... Taste this dish and it's guaranteed you've never eaten before...... Deliciously eaten. ”
Chen Beiluo said happily: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." As he spoke, he stretched out his chopsticks and grabbed a piece of braised lion's head, chewing it slightly, it was really delicious in the world.
"I can't imagine that there is such a delicacy in the Valley of the Wicked, it's really rare."
Suddenly, the door next to the counter opened, and a person walked out, this person was short and fat, with a round smiling face, it was the hotel shopkeeper who was kind and wealthy, and the moment he saw Chen Beiluo, his eyes couldn't help but rise with a stunning light.
Seeing him smiling so kindly, who would have thought that he would kill his mentor overnight, just because his junior sister scolded him for being a fat pig!
The round-faced fat man smiled: "Others only say that we must suffer in this valley, but I don't know how to endure hardships when there are many clever and talented people together, the wine and food here are exquisite, even the emperor is afraid that it will be difficult to eat, who is this cook, I am afraid that Brother Tai will never think of it......" After a pause, he continued: "I don't know if the little Taoist chief has ever heard that there was a heavenly star in the beggar gang in the past, and he poisoned the seven elders of his own beggar gang in half an hour......
"Bang" slapped the table, and the round-faced fat man laughed, "This is really a big hero, a big hero, and he is the one who cooks!" ”
Chen Beiluo's expression remained unchanged, and he smiled faintly: "It turned out to be him, I heard about it a little, but I didn't expect him to hide in this valley of the wicked." ”
"So, he's the one who treats you?"
The round-faced fat man shook his head and said, "Not really. ”
Chen Beiluo said: "I guess not. ”
The round-faced fat man smiled: "Oh, how did the little Taoist guess?" ”
Chen Beiluo blinked his eyes and said, "Because I don't know him." ”
The round-faced fat man suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.
But the girl laughed and trembled, leaning forward and backward, and tears were about to burst into laughter.
On the side, Bai Ziyi was eating food and drinking wine by himself, completely ignoring them.
The round-faced fat man glanced at him and asked, "I don't know what the little Taoist chief is doing when he comes to our Valley of the Wicked?" He asked, but his voice was still full of laughter, as if he would be uncomfortable if he didn't laugh.
Chen Beiluo put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm here to find someone." ”
The smile on the round-faced fat man's face became even stronger: "Who?" ”
Chen Beiluo smiled and said, "Little fish." ”
The girl and the round-faced fat man were shocked suddenly, and they glanced at each other, shock, doubt, disbelief and many other emotions flashed in their eyes, and the murderous intent in their hearts became even more intense.
The two people who were talking and laughing in a low voice behind Chen Beiluo's body also trembled slightly, and immediately stopped talking.
The round-faced fat man laughed and said, "The little Taoist really likes to joke, the foolish brother has been in the Valley of the Wicked for so many years, but he has never heard of such a number one person. ”
Chen Beiluo smiled and groaned: "Really? ”
The girl whispered softly: "Xiaodao chief, you have not been deceived, and I have never heard of it." ”
Chen Bei turned his head and stared at her eyes for a moment, as if he wanted to see her heart.
The girl frowned slightly, and said with a pitiful face: "Doesn't the Taoist believe in the slave family?" ”
The expression on Chen Beiluo's face seemed to be smiling, and he said slowly: "I naturally believe the words of the beauty, but ......"
The girl said, "But what? ”
Chen Beiluo winked at her and said, "But if it's from Tu Jiaojiao's mouth, then it's not necessarily." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Bai Ziyi didn't eat any more vegetables, didn't drink any more wine, stared at the girl with straight eyes, and touched the hilt of the sword at his waist with his right hand, looking like he was going to kill at any time.
At that time, the night was deeper, like a thick inkstone, so deep that it could not be dissolved, silently taking heaven and earth into its embrace, and falling into a deep sleep.
There was a dead silence in the Valley of the Wicked, like the bloody mouth of a giant beast in the wilderness, and the silver moonlight sprinkled down, and when it arrived here, it suddenly dimmed, as if it had been swallowed silently by it, and it was dim and dim, and it could not dispel the slightest darkness.
