Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Holy Maiden of the Sacred Mountain
Although what Lao Gu said was a bit unacceptable, it could not be denied that what he said was true. The old man should have said that he had almost sued them, and there should be no more valuable clues. But in any case, with that Buddha bone, the old man had already done them a great favor.
As for the question of how to get out of here, before Jiang Qi took the initiative to find Qiangba, Qiangba came by himself. This man is very kind and enthusiastic, and he didn't forget to bring a big bag of dry food when he came. He handed it to Qin Zhen with a smile, meaning that they should keep it for them to eat on the road.
After that, Qiangba took Qin Zhen and they walked to the entrance of the village, and it was very difficult to tell Qin Zhen that they had to go down the mountain from the road below the entrance of the village, which was not a road, and walked along the mountain range, when they could see the village, it meant that they had arrived near Nepal. There will be donkeys and horses to help them cross the mountains, and once they have passed, they will go to Nepal.
Qin Zhen's summary seems simple, but the process that Qiangba said is laborious. If you want to fully understand Jampa's expression, you can't do it without a little wisdom and imagination.
After listening to Qin Zhen's relay, Lao Gu asked with some skepticism: "It's that simple?" Can you ride a donkey and cross the border? Why do I always think it's unlikely? ”
After hearing this, Jiang Qi said on the side: "In most of the border areas, it is not very difficult for people to move between the two countries. For example, in Yunnan and Myanmar, it is really not too difficult to travel through. There's even a local resident who can take you across the border. What's more, this Himalayan mountain range is inaccessible, and it is not difficult to go over the mountain. The difficult part is the way over the mountains. ”
Qin Zhen immediately agreed and said, "Daqi is right! Walking through this barren snow-capped mountain is the most difficult problem. We have to walk a long, long distance from here to get to the place where there is a village. In this process, we can only be real savages. ”
Lao Gu didn't say anything more, it seemed that he didn't care much about how to go on this road. Anyway, it is destined to be a difficult road to the sky, so what difference can it make if you take it?
After familiarizing themselves with the way down the mountain, Qin Zhen and the others returned to the old man's house. I saw that next to the backpack dry food they had prepared, there were now some more herbs and other things. The old man slowly cleaned up on the side, and when he saw them come in, he smiled and beckoned the three of them.
"Young man, bring these things with you. There was a headache along the way, a time when the brain fever was uncomfortable. There will be no medical station on the snowy mountain. Although these herbs are not life-saving, they are better than nothing. The old man said kindly.
"Thank you, we're leaving early tomorrow morning. You always have a lot of guarantees. Qin Zhen simply expressed his gratitude and goodbye, and at the same time looked forward to what the old man could say to them.
It's kind of a good idea. The old man really made them sit down. And said slowly, "Do you remember the Guardian I talked about earlier? ”
"Yes."
"Although Guardians are also human. But you must not underestimate the enemy, that is definitely not an ordinary person. A trace of nervousness flashed in the old man's eyes, and his expression was very strict.
Qin Zhen looked at the old man like this. I can't help but ask, "What you're talking about isn't an ordinary person...... What is the meaning? It's easy to misinterpret the so-called Guardian as a monster, or someone like the Demon Lord.
The Demon Lord is not an ordinary person to them, whether it is his mysterious age, or his ghostly ability and kung fu, they have a deep memory! Now that I think about the guardian of the Holy Mountain, if it is really at the same level as the Hundred Ghosts and Demon Lords, then Qin Zhen and the three of them will really be hopeless.
And what the old man said next came as a surprise to them.
"The Holy Maiden of the Sacred Mountain is not only guarding a certain snow-capped mountain, she is also the guardian of Shangri-La. They travel through the Himalayas, and she can be seen around any corner. The saint has the ability to communicate with the gods of the snow-capped mountains, so she will guard the secrets of Shangri-La from generation to generation. They are guardians, but they will also eliminate those who threaten Shangri-La at any cost. The old man said as he recalled.
But Lao Gu suddenly blinked and asked, "You, you mean that the guardian is a female ......?" ”
Qin Zhen and Jiang Qi looked at Lao Gu's expression, and at the same time they both looked at him with their eyes. I think he is still putting on a stinky rascal/rogue appearance when he has tried his best to restrain himself.
The old man nodded, but said very strictly: "This is what I want to tell you, you must not be underestimated because of the appearance of the saint." They are the guardians of the snowy mountains, and they have the most powerful power of the snowy mountains. Don't be careless! ”
The old man was extremely serious, although Qin Zhen and the others listened very seriously. But I have to deny that this holy mountain goddess is still the guardian of the holy mountain goddess, and in their hearts, the sense of threat has greatly decreased.
It's not that they have a patriarchal view, or that women don't necessarily mean that they won't be strong. It's just that it's hard for the three of them to regard a woman as the biggest enemy they will face in the future. There is no way to be vigilant at all times and wait for a bloody fight with a woman.
The old man, of course, could see their thoughts, and now he said with a slightly reproachful face: "Young people are young people... I don't understand that danger can exist in any possibility. When you see a beautiful girl like a flower, you let down your vigilance, so beware of your own life! ”
Looking at the old man's complaining expression, Qin Zhen smiled embarrassedly and said, "Haha, don't worry, old man!" Even if our brother is not a decent gentleman, he is by no means a womanizer. There are no surprises that will happen because of this problem. We have written down your old words, and we will always be vigilant. ”
Lao Gu also replied with a big grin at this time: "That's it!" Don't worry, we're not good people......"
As soon as the words fell, Qin Zhen and Jiang Qi threw murderous glances at him at the same time. This made Lao Gu change his mouth again and again: "No, no, no, I mean, don't worry, we have always been good people, not bad people." We definitely can't do that kind of thing when we see lust and forget righteousness, and we can't do that kind of thing! ”
Don't look at Lao Gu's constant assurance, but Qin Zhen feels that he is getting blacker and darker. It sounds like they're the kind of people who are obsessed with lust...... This made Qin Zhen can't help but scold in his heart: It doesn't matter if you are that kind of person, don't involve our brothers as well, okay? It seems that you must always keep a clear line with him when you go out in the future, otherwise it is easy for people to mistakenly think that they are all the same......
The old man sighed reproachfully, and then continued, "When you walk up the snow peak, you must beware of the appearance of the goddess. Especially if your destination is so obvious, she will definitely see you as a threat to Shangri-La. Don't look at you as three men with strong arms, but the Holy Goddess is powerful......"
Before the old man could finish speaking, Gu Jie interjected: "Ouch, old man, you see that you are talking about that girl as if she is the reincarnation of Guanyin, and the queen mother is mortal!" Have you seen it with your own eyes, or have you heard about it? Is it just an ordinary girl in the mountains, because she looks a little more beautiful, and has been distorted into some kind of guardian by people more and more? ”
Qin Zhen originally wanted to interrupt him, but once Lao Gu's box was opened, it would be useless even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu came. Although he was a little offended by what he said, he did ask the real question in his heart. It is not uncommon for people to spread false rumors. The more people say it, the essence of the truth is distorted.
Moreover, it is also difficult for them to believe that a woman can do such a terrifying and weird thing.
Although it is said that in Yunnan, they have seen Gu Niang Jiuyou. But to be honest, they didn't find the Nine Shadows terrifying. It may be precisely because the image of Jiuyou has been ingrained in their minds that even if the old man exaggerates the warning, it is still difficult for them to be afraid.
Seeing that Gu Jie didn't believe it, the old man pursed his lips and said, "Hmph, young man, your macho temperament will have to be folded in a woman's hand sooner or later!" ”
"......" Lao Gu was stunned when he heard this. And Qin Zhen and Jiang Qi couldn't help but laugh secretly, who said it wasn't? This man has already been completely convinced......
Lao Gu seemed to feel embarrassed when he saw Qin Zhen snickering. So he cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, old man, what you said is not right. Our gentlemen are called iron man tenderness and gentlemanly demeanor to normal girls. But if there really is that abnormal girl, I don't mind learning about Sun Dasheng, there are no men and women, and one will kill the other! ”
Qin Zhen felt that his statement was ridiculous, as if he really had the ability of Sun Wukong......
At this time, the old man said, "If I don't tell you some real examples, it seems that you will not be afraid." Let me ask you, do you know that in the early years, several sacred mountains near the Himalayas were climbed and many, many people died? ”
Qin Zhen thought for a moment and replied, "Knowing is knowing...... But doesn't the news say it's all because of accidents? ”
As if he knew that Qin Zhen would say this, the old man snorted coldly and said, "Accident? Most of the Himalayan people know that those people were killed! Before I could get halfway on, I was inexplicably killed! There is nothing that the Tibetans do not know, it is the work of the holy woman, who is guarding the sacred mountain from being defiled and trampled on by outsiders. Can something like this be made public? ”
Qin Zhen and the others were dumbfounded when they heard this! Could this really happen?? This sounds like there is a certain similarity with Meili Snow Mountain, they are all bloodshed, but behind those lives that have been lost, there is a very high faith to support it.
I thought that the Meili Snow Mountain was originally because of the Bai Ze Divine Beast and other mountain protection beasts, but now it seems that this Himalayan is an absolute upgrade, and the guardian has changed from a strange beast to a human - an unusual woman. (To be continued......)
