Chapter 422: Blackwood Cliff Top
Orangutan Beach is a famous dangerous beach more than 40 miles northwest of Pingding Prefecture, this long beach, the water flow is turbulent, and the nearby mountains and rocks are as red as blood, which is particularly strange.
To the north of Orangutan Beach, the mountain is becoming more and more steep, with steep stone walls on both sides, and only a stone path about five feet wide in the middle for people to pass.
The Black Wood Cliff, the main altar of the Demon Cult, is on a steep hill near this orangutan beach.
Along the way, the Demon Sect was really tightly guarded, and every level was guarded by a large number of disciples with strong martial arts.
Fortunately, with Shangguan Yun here, these Demon Sect disciples looked very respectful when they saw him, and they didn't dare to ask more questions at all.
After passing through three extremely steep mountain roads, they came to a water beach.
I saw Shangguan Yun release a ringing arrow, and a few small boats on the other side of the river were shaken, and Wu Ming secretly said in his heart: "The foundation of the Demon Sect for hundreds of years is really extraordinary. If it weren't for the fact that Shangguan Yun was the internal response, it would be very difficult to attack the Black Wood Cliff General Altar from the outside. ”
When the visitor saw Shangguan Yun, he was extremely respectful, and after welcoming everyone to the boat, he quickly paddled off.
On the other side of the beach, there is a steep mountain trail all the way.
Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the main altar, Shangguan Yun and the others couldn't help but show a solemn look on their faces, and even Ren Xing and Xiang Wentian looked a little nervous.
On this kind of mountain road, if the enemy finds out that something is wrong, it is really cornered.
Only Wu Ming, who was lying on the stretcher, was leisurely and contented, not worrying about these at all.
Although everyone was very nervous, fortunately, there was no accident, and the guards along the way saw that it was Shangguan Yun, so they basically didn't check it and let it go directly.
Due to the swiftness of the crowd's movements, and there was no obstacle on the way, when they arrived at the main altar of the Black Wood Cliff, it was not yet dawn.
At this time, it is the time when people's attention is the least concentrated, and it is easiest to get through the test.
Shangguan Yun hurriedly ordered someone to report to Dongfang Undefeated, saying that he had succeeded in following the sect's order.
After a while, Wu Ming suddenly heard a silver bell ringing in mid-air, and when he was confused, he saw that Shangguan Yun had already stood up and waited respectfully.
At this time, Ren Yingying said softly: "This silver bell ringing means that the sect leader has an order, everyone stand up quickly." ”
Let me go and Xiang Wentian stood up immediately, Qu Feiyan also quickly stood up straight, only Wu Ming, who pretended to be injured, could continue to lie comfortably.
The silver bell rang from high to low, very quickly, and when the bell stopped abruptly, a disciple in yellow suddenly walked in, spread his hands, immediately unfolded a yellow cloth, and read aloud: "The Sun Moon Divine Sect Wencheng Wude, Benevolence, Righteousness and Wisdom Sect Leader Dongfang Ling said: Jia Bu and Shangguan Yun obeyed the order and returned successfully, which is very worthy of Jiashang, and immediately took the captives and went up the cliff to see." ”
It looked like reading out the emperor's holy decree, and Wu Ming couldn't help but laugh dumbly after reading it.
The others didn't dare to be careless, so they only listened to Shangguan Yun bow and say: "The sect leader has been ruling the rivers and lakes for thousands of years. The sect leader gave his subordinates to see, great kindness, and never dare to forget. ”
Shangguan Yun's subordinates also said in unison: "The sect leader gave his subordinates to see, and they will never dare to forget it." ”
And Ren Wuxing and the others had no choice but to move their mouths as everyone spoke, and they couldn't help but curse secretly in their hearts.
Immediately afterward, under the guidance of the herald, the group began to ascend the cliff along the stone steps.
Although Wu Ming was lying on a stretcher, he was not idle at all.
On the way, they passed through three iron gates, and before each iron gate was opened, someone shouted and asked everyone for the night's password and checked the waist card.
These Shangguan Yun had already been prepared, and everyone had already memorized the password on the way, but there was nothing wrong.
When everyone arrived in front of a big stone gate, Wu Ming squinted and saw two lines of big characters engraved on both sides of the stone gate, the right hand side is "Wencheng Wude", and the left hand side is "benevolence, righteousness and wisdom", and the banner is naturally engraved with the four big characters of "Sun and Moon Bright", which undoubtedly shows the relationship between Sun and Moon Sect and Ming Sect.
After being inspected by the guards, the group passed through the stone gate and walked inside.
Wu Ming secretly checked and saw a big bamboo basket here.
This bamboo basket is extremely large, even if it is loaded with a dozen people, there is no problem, and there is a rope attached to the top of the bamboo basket, which shows that it is to be hung up by the bamboo basket.
"Carry the captives in." Shangguan Yun gave an order, let me go, Xiang Wentian, Yingying and Qu Feiyan bent down to lift the stretcher and stepped into the bamboo basket.
I only heard the gong suddenly ring three times, and the bamboo basket began to rise slowly.
Wu Ming secretly raised his eyes and looked up, found that there was a noose winch on the rope, and twisted the bamboo basket up. And looking up again, you can see that the fire on the top of the cliff is like a star in the sky, which shows that this black wood cliff is really a bit high.
Wu Ming turned his head to look down at the bottom of the basket, but saw that it was pitch black under the cliff, and even with his eyesight, he could hardly see anything.
After a long time, the bamboo basket stopped, but Wu Ming knew that it was still far from the top of the cliff.
Immediately after that, everyone got on another bamboo basket and continued to rely on the traction of the winch and the rope to go up.
In this way, it was not until the fourth bamboo basket that everyone finally came to the top of the cliff.
Wu Ming couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "With this design, if no one is willing to cooperate with the outside, ordinary people are afraid that there will really be no way to come to Blackwood Cliff." ”
Of course, Wu Ming has supreme light skills, even if he is high, he can go up with his bare hands, and this black wood cliff will naturally not be difficult for him.
When they reached the top of the cliff, the sun had risen high.
Wu Ming raised his eyes and saw that the sun was shining on a huge archway made of white marble, and the four big characters on it "Ze Pi Cangsheng" appeared to be shining with golden light, which was particularly shocking.
Wu Ming couldn't help but think of the eight words that represent the undefeated East, that is: "The sun rises in the East, only I am undefeated." ”
As for the four words "Ze Pi Cangsheng", with the undefeated temperament of the East, he can't afford it at all.
Ren Wuxing and the others naturally saw the golden characters on the huge archway, so they couldn't help but snort softly: "Hmph, just by him, bullshit Ze is born." ”
Ren Yingying hurriedly pulled her father's sleeve and told him not to speak yet, so as not to be heard and fall short.
Immediately afterward, I only heard Shangguan Yunlang shouting: "Shangguan Yun, the elder of the White Tiger Hall, is ordered by the sect master to come and pay respects. ”
As Shangguan Yun's words fell, after a while, four people in purple robes came out of a small stone house on the right.
When the first person saw Shangguan Yun, he immediately bowed his hand and said, "Congratulations to Elder Shangguan for making a great contribution, why didn't Elder Jia come?" ”
Shangguan Yun hurriedly said, "Elder Jia died in battle, and he has repaid the sect leader's great kindness. ”
The man said, "I see, then Elder Shangguan is afraid that he will be promoted immediately." ”
Shangguan Yun had no choice but to say, "If you are promoted by the sect leader, you will never dare to forget the benefits of your brothers." ”
The man smiled and said, "Then we can thank you in advance!" ”
Then, he actually looked at Wu Ming on the stretcher, and Wu Ming hurriedly recovered to the state that the wounded should be.
