Chapter 406: Rookie

Chen Duo waited left and right and couldn't hear back from Tang Tang, so he was so anxious that he hurriedly called Xu Lai.

But at this time, Xu Lai was still on the snowy mountain, where could he get through, so hated that Chen Duo almost didn't scold him.

She thought that if she really couldn't do it, she would find a way to find a way, and it was just then that Xu Lai's phone was connected.

"Okay, I see, I'll go over right away." Xu said.

"Stay connected, don't turn off your phone again!" Chen Duo advised.

Xu said hello and hung up the phone.

turned around and explained a few words to Zhao Xiaomin, and asked her to follow the Yuan Lei brothers and sisters back to Jiangning first.

He and Li Qingyun rushed to Zhangjiajie.

By the night of the next day, the three of them had come to the foot of Wulei Mountain.

Wulei Mountain is located in the east of Zhangjiajie, formerly known as Leiyue, also known as Wulei Immortal Mountain, and was once a very important avenue.

In the Ming Dynasty period, the prosperity of Wulei Mountain reached its peak, there are 36 palaces, 72 halls, its buildings are all built by stone walls and iron tiles, with the ridge and ravines vertical and horizontal display, stretching for more than ten miles, strange and dangerous and deep, mysterious and transcendent, known as one of the Taoist caves blessed land.

During the period of Mingshenzong, the Wulei Mountain Dojo was prosperous and, believers spread throughout the eighteen counties of southwest Hubei and northwest Hunan provinces, in addition, a large number of profound masters of Taoism were gathered, and the Wudang Mountain in the north was equally famous, known as "North Wudang, South Five Thunder".

However, since the Ming Dynasty, Wulei Mountain has gradually fallen, until a hundred years ago, the palace and temple were all destroyed in the war, and today, there are only some relics left for future generations to admire.

Different from Longhu Mountain, Maoshan Mountain, etc., although Wulei Mountain is still a Taoist blessed land, there is no Taoist sect stationed here, which is no different from ordinary mountains and rivers.

Xu Lai has been in contact with Chen Duo on the road, and according to what she said, he quickly found the place where Tang Tang and the others had settled. As soon as I inquired about the local area, I roughly guessed the route they had taken up the mountain.

The three of them climbed the mountain overnight, and on the waist of the main peak of the Golden Peak of Wulei Mountain, they found two disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

"Where are your friends?"

The two disciples, a man and a woman, were extremely young, looking like they were seventeen or eighteen years old, very immature, probably disciples who had just started, because they didn't even know Xu Lai, the former head of the sect.

In comparison, the female disciple was still a little older, and she learned to ask Xu Lai and the three of them in a decent way.

"Whose disciples are you?" Xu Lai glanced at the two of them and asked.

The female disciple hesitated for a moment and reported the name of the master.

"Are you Lao Hong's apprentices?" Xu Lai was a little surprised, looked at the female disciple for a while, and said, "Luo Tingting, right?" ”

The female disciple opened her mouth slightly and said in surprise, "How do you know?" ”

It turned out that this female disciple's name was Luo Tingting, and the man's name was Xu Jia, who was an apprentice accepted by Elder Hong Zeen in the northwest, and it was only recently that he went to Longhu Mountain for the first time.

But at that time, Xu Lai was already gone.

He still knew about this from Tang Tang, saying that Elder Hong had taken in two more little apprentices.

"Do you know our master?" Xu Jia asked with some surprise.

"Well, old friend." Xu Lai didn't have time to explain more, and asked, "Where did the others go down to the grave?" ”

Luo Tingting hesitated a little and said, "Sister Xu Yan said let us stay here and don't let anyone else in." ”

"There may be an accident down there, take us there!" Xu Lai said solemnly.

"Huh?" The two rookies were startled, but they didn't dare to easily believe the words of the three strangers, and they were at a loss for a while.

Xu Lai beckoned, and suddenly a slender blade of grass flew up, stretched straight in the air, and broke through the air with a bang, directly through a big tree in front of him.

"Flying Flowers!" Luo Tingting and the others exclaimed.

This flying flower qi is a secret stunt of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and Luo Tingting's master Hong Zeen is particularly proficient in this technique, so the two are quite familiar with the flying flower qi.

At this time, seeing that Xu Lai's flying flower qi was so exquisite, he was immediately surprised and delighted: "You...... Are you the senior brother of the house? ”

In their eyes, Xu Lai must be a certain senior master in the house, but judging by his young age, he should be a certain master brother.

"Take us there first." Xu Lai didn't have time to explain.

"Good!" Luo Tingting nodded vigorously, and hurriedly ran towards the east with the three of them.

After a while, he stopped at the mouth of a rather hidden cave.

The entrance to the cave was located just above a stream and was hidden by some thorns. The entrance to the cave was low and damp, and there was a strong earthy smell.

Luo Tingting and the others stayed on it and were responsible for the response.

"Who is going down?" Xu Lai asked as he observed the terrain around him.

"There are Sister Xu Yan, Senior Brother Wang Quan, Senior Brother Wu Mian, Senior Brother Li Neng, and Xiaotang." Luo Tingting counted with her fingers.

"How long have they been down?" Xu Lai asked.

"It's been more than three days, almost four days." Luo Tingting said.

"It's been almost four days, and you're not in a hurry?" Xu came to see her.

"I'm in a hurry!" Luo Tingting said, "Xu Jia and I are dying!" ”

"Then you're just waiting here, and you don't want to figure out a way?" Xu Lai frowned.

Luo Tingting heard his stern tone, and couldn't help but flatten her mouth, tears rolled in her eyes, and said aggrievedly: "I'm ...... We thought we were looking for someone to ask for help, but ...... But we don't know anyone except Master, and my Master has never been able to get in touch......"

The little girl cried as she spoke.

Xu Lai and the three couldn't help but be speechless.

"Elder Hong sent you out?" Li Qingyun asked.

Luo Tingting wiped her tears and said, "My master is asking us to study hard with our senior brothers and sisters in Longhu Mountain, but Elder Kong said that there have been a lot of things recently, so let's follow out and experience first." ”

"What a fool!" Li Qingyun snorted coldly.

Suddenly, Luo Tingting and the others didn't even dare to speak.

"The three of us go down and have a look, and you two will continue to stay here." Xu Lai finished surveying the surrounding terrain and came back to command.

Luo Tingting hesitated for a moment, bit her lip and said timidly, "Senior brother, can you take the two of us down together?" We...... We don't want to wait here anymore. ”

Xu Jia also nodded again and again, it seems that these two people are really afraid to wait here.

"Then let's go down together, everything on the road is under my command, understand?" Xu Laidao.

Luo Tingting and the others hurriedly agreed.

The group immediately entered in turn.

Xu Lai walked in the front, followed by Li Qingyun, Luo Tingting and the two walked in the middle, and finally Li Liwen walked behind.

The cave was unusually low and narrow at first, barely allowing one person to enter, but after a while, it began to widen.

"It's a thief, isn't it?" Li Qingyun said.

"The outside is a thief hole, but the inside is not." Xu said.

Luo Tingting and the others observed the cave wall, while pricking up their ears to listen to the two senior brothers in front of them.

After a while, I saw a small dark green flag on the stone wall in front of me, which was planted diagonally on the wall.

Xu Lai glanced over and motioned for everyone to continue walking.

Luo Tingting asked timidly: "Senior brother, can I ask what this flag is for?" ”

"It's a sign used in the house to guide the way." Xu Lai led the way in front, and patiently explained the use of this flag.

"These two rookies are quite studious." Li Qingyun said with a smile.

"Lao Hong's vision for accepting apprentices is still good." Xu said.

Along the way, the tunnel twists and turns, tossing and turning in the belly of the mountain, and there are many forks, and ordinary people have long been confused.

However, with Xu Lai, a master of burial methods, naturally there will be no danger.

The entrance to the tomb was soon found.

After Xu Lai and Li Qingyun took the lead to go down, Li Liwen followed with two rookies.

This ancient tomb is quite old, judging by Xu, it should be a mausoleum of the Tang Dynasty, looking at the situation inside, it should have been patronized by the inverted bucket master many years ago, and there was almost nothing left.

Counting, the scale of this mausoleum is already quite large, but it is always limited, Xu Lai and the others turned all the tombs in a moment, but they didn't see half a figure.

"Sister Xu Yan, they obviously came to the tomb, why are they gone?" Luo Tingting and Xu Jia, the two rookies, were suddenly so anxious that they wanted to cry.

The Li Qingyun brothers and sisters were also confused, and they carefully inspected the mausoleum inside and out.

Judging from the traces left behind, there were indeed people who came not long ago, but now there is no half of a figure, which is indeed very strange.

Mage is unmatched
