Chapter 63: The Tranquility of the World
"Don't worry, the Demon Lord must be sure." Yu Dong said decisively.
This made Qin Zhen and Lao Gu couldn't help but glance at each other, and said in their hearts that this was the result he could think of? Isn't it a little too optimistic? Even the Demon Lord said that he was only fifty percent sure, how could Yu Dong dare to conclude that he would definitely succeed?
At this moment when they hesitated, Yu Dong took another sentence and said: "We don't have time or qualifications to negotiate conditions, so we can only choose to believe him." I think the Demon Lord's sorcery is much higher than what he has presented to us. The reason why he said that he was fifty percent sure was that he had other meanings. β
Lao Gu hesitated a little when he heard this, and then said as if compromised: "Okay, Dong Shao, even if he has any other meaning, we can't see it." Since you said that it will be done, then we believe that the Demon Lord will do it. It's just that the dangerous process he said still makes people feel a little uneasy......"
At this moment, before Lao Gu's words were finished, a person walked in outside the door.
This man was none other than Kawage. At this moment, he is still holding a large tray full of food in his hand, and the aroma of rice is overflowing, which is appetizing. I don't know who is responsible for the food here of the Demon Lord, but the speed is really fast. The most important thing is that these foods are full of color, smell and flavor, so that they can instantly forget what is dangerous or not...... It was unanimously decided to sacrifice the Five Organs Temple first!
As soon as Gu Jie saw that his eyes were blue, he strode up to meet him, took the tray, put the food on the table, and then returned his hand in a particularly atmospheric manner, and said to Ka Qiqi: "Come, brother!" The plate is for you to take away! β
Kawitch smiled politely and took the tray, not intending to affect their whirlwind posture at this time. He just stepped back a little and stood in the doorway. Soon, a young Miao boy was recruited and made tea for Qin Zhen and them one by one. By the way, I also took out their clothes thoughtfully, and the rest of the things were placed in the next room.
It's just that they are all too hungry to bother to say polite words such as thank you, only Qin Zhen puffed out his cheeks and reluctantly smiled at Ka Yuqi to express his gratitude.
Ka Yuqi didn't say much, and directly made a 'please' gesture, signaling that Qin Zhen didn't have to be polite, although he was open to eat......
I don't know if the Demon Lord is really so talented in this mountain, the water is beautiful and the fish are fat, or if they are overly hungry due to a lot of physical consumption. Anyway, Qin Zhen who ate these dishes completely felt comparable to delicacies. Lao Gu was even more evil, looking at the way he ate fish, Qin Zhen was worried that he would get stuck.
In comparison, Yudong and Jiang Qi are much more atmospheric. Jiang Qi's eating is a typical military style, and Yu Dong, his natural noble temperament does not seem to be reduced under any circumstances.
Soon, under the speed of Lao Gu's autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, a table of meals was quickly swept away. When he finally had his fill, he wiped his mouth and asked Kawaki, "Brother, have you eaten?" β
When Lao Gu said this, Qin Zhen was drinking water. After hearing his words, a mouthful of water almost didn't squirt out. Qin Zhen secretly scolded Lao Gu in his heart, Lao Gu, you are about to lick the plate clean! It makes sense to ask people if they have eaten?
I don't know if this comrade Xiaoka is relatively slow to react, or if the Miao young man is naturally simple. Anyway, when he listened to Lao Gu's question, not only was he not unhappy, but he waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be polite, you've already eaten." If you have eaten well, I will take you to the Demon Lord's mountain spring to take a good bath. Bathing in that holy water will help you recover and your injuries. β
Gu Jie was happy when he heard about taking a bath, and laughed self-deprecatingly: "Alas! It seems that this demon lord is even more spiritual than the old king, and even the bath water has the effect of reviving the dead. Come on, the gentlemen won't be polite to him anymore. If we don't take a shower, our brothers will stink. β
Qin Zhen looked at Gu Jie with disgust and said sarcastically: "Yes, I'm really afraid that if you continue like this, you will grow dog pee moss." Of course, Gu Jie was reluctant to hear this, but in front of Ka Yuqi, he didn't want people to see the joke. That's why he glared at Qin Zhen with an extremely rich expression, which meant: It's like you're not......
Ka Qiqi looked at Qin Zhen and Gu Jie's bickering, smiled and nodded, and then ordered the Miao young man to go and deal with it first. And he picked up Yudong's clothes, led the way out of the courtyard, and walked towards the side where there was water.
Gu Jie and Qin Zhen followed behind, muttering in a low voice as they walked, "See? This mountainous area is a mountainous area, and bathing is basically by the river. Eh, do you think there will be those strange things again in the place where the demon lord asked us to take a bath? β
Obviously, Lao Gu was frightened out of the sequelae by the illusion in the Nine Heavens. Now, as soon as he saw a place where there was a stream of living water, he couldn't help but mutter.
Qin Zhen comforted him and said, "Just put your heart in your stomach, the Demon Lord can't do that at all." If he really wants to kill us, why would he beat around the bush? A fish bone just now can get you stuck. You've eaten all the meals, what do you want to do with all these useless things?! β
Gu Jie thought about it, nodded, and seemed to agree with Qin Zhen's point of view. They chatted like this, and in a short time they followed Kawitch to a natural mountain and rock staircase. It seemed that they had to walk up to reach the 'sacred pool' where they bathed.
There seems to be the sound of water murmuring in the distance, and the winding ancient stone steps up and down the rock face look quite steep. The top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist. With the stone steps all the way up, it seems to lead to the middle of nowhere.
Qin Zhen sighed as he walked, although there were no massages and health care of all sizes in this place...... But if you can bathe here, you will definitely feel reborn. It is not comparable to the vulgar bathing in the city?
Finally up to the top of the mountain, in the middle of which a calcification pool of different sizes was looming in the clouds, colorful and colorful. The large and small are connected, like a colorful lotus blooming on the top of the mountain.
At this moment, it is already twilight, and when you look into the distance, there are groups of waterfalls between these mountains, and the world is quiet. The misty clouds are the hookahs that stir up.
When they saw the scene of this immortal mansion, they couldn't help but feel heartfelt amazement! How did the Demon Lord manage to find such a blessed place? This is simply the Immortal Mansion of the Fog and Clouds!
At this time, Qin Zhen looked around with amazement, and then asked Ka Qiqi, "You Demon Lord...... Do you usually take a bath in this place? Qin Zhen began to feel a little envious, jealous and hateful in his heart...... What kind of isolated fairy life is this?
Before Ka Qiqi could reply, Gu Jie quickly sarcastic: "I said Qin Zhen, you just talk, why do you show such a lewd expression?" Also, your very question is filthy. β
Qin Zhenqiang suppressed the anger in his heart, and tried his best to restrain himself from stepping forward to strangle him! In fact, Qin Zhen seems to have been very accustomed to this model between him and Gu Jie for a long time, if they don't raise the bar and talk for a few hours, the two of them won't be counted together.
While speaking, Gu Jie casually found a calcification pool at a high place and jumped in, smirking while swimming. It felt like a king who had been working on land for a long time and had finally returned to the sea.
But when he just swam to the edge of the opposite side of the pool, he suddenly screamed in his throat, and then as if he had met a water ghost, he threw himself at Qin Zhen and them!
When Qin Zhen saw Lao Gu's condition, it really didn't look like a joke, and he immediately jumped in.
Qin Zhen came to Lao Gu's side, grabbed him, and forced him to calm down, then scolded: "This pool is at most one meter five, and your height of one meter nine is called a hair!" What's wrong with drowning you!? β
Gu Jie didn't care about Qin Zhen's sarcastic scolding, and pointed back to the edge of the pool and said, "His uncle, but he/she scared me to death...... The edge of this pool is a cliff! It's a bottomless cliff with no eye on it! As soon as I got there, I was dizzy when I glanced at it! It feels like I'm going to be washed down by sleep! β
As soon as Qin Zhen heard this, he put down his old Gu and walked cautiously towards the pool. When he got to the edge, he looked ahead...... I couldn't help but feel dizzy.
It's just that his fear of heights is not as strict as Gu Jie's, and he is not so bad that Cheng DΓΉ screams out of his voice. But the legs are also noticeably weak...... There was indeed a cliff in front of it, and these pools were at the top of a cliff.
In fact, it stands to reason that they are standing in this deep pool of five or six meters, and it is impossible for them to fall down if they are blocked by a stone wall.
But the water here is parallel to the edge of the pool, which makes people look so insecure! The ripples of the water and the psychedelic colors make it difficult to distinguish the edges. And below that are the waterfalls and the abyss.
It's really hard to see how Lao Gu didn't directly scare to death just now. People who don't have a fear of heights will probably never understand that fear. Especially in such unsuspecting circumstances.
The reason why they didn't notice this extreme terrain when they were just outside the pool was because of the unique environment that gave people a visual difference.
The water surface is parallel to the edge of the pond, and the rock wall on the opposite side of the mountain rock plays a role in extending forward. It makes people mistakenly think that in front of the pond, there are still mountain rocks. It was this illusion that made Lao Gu look down at the edge of the pool, and he was almost scared to death.
At this time, Qin Zhen looked back and saw that Gu Jie had obediently returned to the bottom pool. With that frightened look, it seems that he will not come up again if he is killed.
After they had put their clothes away, they said hello and said goodbye first. Qin Zhen and the others also found a pool of water and washed the blood stains on their bodies. Not to mention, the water here does make you feel refreshed after soaking your skin. And the pain of the wound is disappearing.
Could it be that this pool is really the lotus pond of the western heavens? Can you take a bath and be reborn and soar in the day?
Maybe the secret of the Demon King's immortality has a lot to do with the water here.
