Volume 1 The Young Man with the Negative Box, the Fledgling Chapter 21 The Secret Hidden Map
Li Fan's eldest brother, Jiang Yang listened to it very useful.
He nodded and said with satisfaction to Li Fan, who was looking "embarrassed" at this time. "That's right, sooner or later it will be a family, now it's catchy, and you'll get used to it later!"
When Li Fan heard this, black lines appeared in his head, and he was very speechless, holding his head with one hand and covering his face with the other, it was too easy for him to go astray when talking to Jiang Yang.
Then, Jiang Yang walked to the window on the third floor regardless of Li Fan's expression, and continued. "Okay, let's make a long story short! My sister has a secret hidden map in her hand! According to the direction and route described in the map, the secret hidden treasure should be buried under the Peerless Ridge adjacent to the Qin and Jin Dynasties. ”
"Peerless Ridge!?"
Since Lao Huang's death, Li Fan has been a little secretive about this place, because when he mentions this place, he naturally thinks of Lao Huang and the old man.
Looking at Li Fan, whose expression had become a little strange, Jiang Yang's mind couldn't help but have an illusion, could it be that his brother-in-law had an unknown experience in the Absolute Heaven Ridge? Otherwise, the normal situation would not be such a gaffe, and he should not be more interested in the secret hidden? The Absolute Heaven Ridge is indeed a place of great evil, and the surrounding countries can be said to be familiar to the innate powerhouses and down to the five or six-year-old children.
However, isn't it strange that a martial artist like Li Fan, who is close to Great Perfection, would be surprised by such a place?
Maybe Li Fan also noticed that he was a little out of shape, so he picked up his abnormal emotions and said in a deep voice. "That place is evil! Moreover, it is not an ordinary danger! I advise you not to go there, which do you think is more important than secrecy or life?"
Li Fan's words seemed to confirm Jiang Yang's illusion.
"Brother-in-law, you should have been to the Peerless Mountains! I even feel that you should be familiar with it very well, right? It just so happens that my sister and I are planning to find some strong people to go together, I wonder if you are interested?" Jiang Yang bypassed Li Fan's question, his face revealing a little surprise and expectation.
In his opinion, Li Fan should not refuse because of his sister's relationship.
Li Fan frowned and didn't speak, for him, this so-called secret treasure didn't interest him at all. Besides, the two years in the Absolute Heaven Ridge were nightmares every day, if it weren't for his mother and his bent on revenge, he and Lao Huang would not have chosen to hide there, living a life of eating and sleeping in the open and drinking blood.
"Since you didn't speak, then I will acquiesce to you! You are so strong, with you joining, we can count as an extra guarantee. Jiang Yang looked at Li Fan, who was silent on the side, and he was a little impatient, eager to go to the Peerless Ridge immediately.
"I'll tell you the truth, I did stay in the Peerless Mountains, and I stayed there for about two years, and because of this, I almost lost my life in it a few times. If I had a choice, I would never go there again. What treasure does it have to do with me? If you bring me here just to talk about this, then I will say goodbye, and I will not accompany you!" Li Fan was a little excited in his words, and he was about to leave.
He was even more puzzled, secretly surprised, Jiang Yang really had a bad brain, did he have to fight to the death with the Peerless Heavenly Ridge, and he didn't even plan to ask for his life for the sake of secrecy?
After Jiang Yang heard this, he was suddenly a little confused, and he was even a little incredulous that Li Fan had stayed in the Peerless Heaven Ridge for two years. At the same time, he didn't expect Li Fan to have such a big resistance to the Peerless Heavenly Ridge.
He hurriedly grabbed Li Fan and said with a sigh. "You may not know how important it is to my sister. ”
Li Fan's figure stagnated slightly, looking back at Jiang Yang with a complicated expression, as if waiting for him to finish speaking.
"My sister is different from other martial artists, of course, I am not only referring to the cultivation talent, but also the exercises she cultivates. The source of her exercises is not our Sword Sect, but from the mysterious secret map, which records the three-style sword technique, and the only one in the whole sect who finally practiced the third style is my sister. According to our bold speculation, there should be a follow-up stage of that sword technique, which means that that sword technique may be able to forge an existence that surpasses the Great Perfection of Martial Artists! So we are determined to get this thing!" Jiang Yang's tone was very firm, even if there was only a glimmer of hope, they did not hesitate.
Li Fan returned to his seat and said intriguingly. "I'm afraid, things won't be so simple!"
Jiang Yang was confused, and his expression was puzzled.
Li Fan knew very well what was going on, and before that, Li Fan was still wondering, how could there be a sword cultivation in the martial arts world for no reason, it turned out to be because of the secret treasure map in Jiang Yingxi's hand.
There is no need to think too much, the person who can leave that picture and bury the secret is afraid that it is an extremely powerful sword cultivator! As for the so-called secret vault, what kind of unknown secrets are buried? Li Fan really wants to know, but how terrifying the strength of the sword cultivation is, you need to know that chance and danger often coexist!
For a while, Li Fan didn't know how to tell Jiang Yang, did he just tell him that the secret map was about sword cultivation? But in the end, after thinking about it, Li Fan still decided to go with them to have a look at it when the time came.
Li Fan and Jiang Yang left the restaurant and talked happily all the way. Of course, the happiest person is Jiang Yang, how he looks at this brother-in-law, how pleasing to the eye, following the principle of "rather demolishing a temple than destroying a marriage", Jiang Yang's self-feeling is very good.
I just don't know, if the person concerned, Jiang Yingxi, knew that her strange brother was so foolish, how would she feel, I was afraid that she would vomit three liters of blood in anger.
By the time the two of them returned to Baifu, it was already afternoon.
White Mansion Courtyard.
In the surprised eyes of everyone in the Bai family, Jiang Yang took Deacon Tsing Yi to say goodbye to Li Fan and left.
Brother-in-law: What's the situation? Obviously, everyone was very puzzled by Jiang Yang's title to Li Fan. Shaozong Jiangyang was in Baifu before, but he didn't give Li Fan any good face, how did he become so affectionate after a fight? What kind of tricky thing is hidden in it? And who won and who lost in the battle between the two? All this makes people feel too weird and it is really difficult to figure out.
At this time, Li Fan was carrying Lao Huang's sword box, standing at the door of the White Mansion with a black robe and a face as usual, about to leave Evergreen City. He doesn't care what others think, and even if he knows, he doesn't bother to explain.
Bai Guozhu's face was kind, and surrounded by the juniors of the Bai family, he stood in the courtyard, and said to Li Fan, who was about to leave. "Fan'er, how about staying in the house for a few more days? When Yuncang returns, you can get acquainted. ”
Bai Guozhu wanted to do something for his grandson, but found that in the end he couldn't do anything.
"It's really comfortable to live in the Bai family's mansion, but too comfortable an environment will make people depressed. Li Fan just like that, led the horse and left without looking back.
Bai Guozhu knew the meaning of Li Fan's words, which implied sarcasm, and couldn't help but show bitterness.
The sun on the horizon burned the clouds red.
Li Fan rode a thousand-mile horse across the stream, crossed the hills, and rode for an hour, and then he left Qingyun County.
Aimless for a moment, Li Fan took out a map from his arms and made some simple marks on it.
The destination of his next trip became very clear, which was a small border city next to the Peerless Ridge marked on the map.
Fortunately, it's not far from here. And that border city is the place where Jiang Yang made an appointment, and within a day or two, Jiang Yang and his sister Jiang Yingxi will come to meet him.
After galloping all the way, he soon came to the border city pointed to on the map, and when he approached the gate of the city, he consciously dismounted, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. After all, he had been reminded when he was in the border city of Qin State that horseback riding was not allowed in the city, and this advice was also readily accepted by him.
This border city may be because of its proximity to the Peerless Mountains, so Li Fan felt that the sky above the entire city seemed to condense a trace of dark clouds, which seemed extremely depressing.
At the gate of the border city, there were only a few old and frail soldiers who were listless and persistent, and they didn't care about Li Fan when they saw Li Fan leading the horse over, but took care of themselves.
The walls are somewhat dilapidated, and at first glance they are in disrepair.
When Li Fan entered the city, he saw the yellow sand flying in the sky, and there was no half of a human figure, there was almost no difference between the city and the outside of the city, and it felt very desolate. If there is a difference, there are just more dilapidated buildings in the city, which slightly appear to have a little human flavor in it.
The sand under your feet is thick and a little soft to step on.
Li Fan led the horse in the city and turned slowly. It was getting late, and he finally found a popular inn.
Li Fan pushed the door in, and the candle flame in the room was flickering, and it was a little dim. Li Fan patted the dust on his body casually, found a nearby seat and sat down, took the sword box from behind his back, and threw it aside on the table.
In fact, Li Fan could have thrown the sword box into the Lan Ling Ring, but he didn't do that, it seemed that he was using the sword box to remember Lao Huang.
"This guest officer, what do you need?" A figure in the dark corner of the house, seeing that a guest came to the door, walked up to Li Fan with wax and asked.
Li Fan turned his head and saw an old man, with a rickety figure, wax in his hands, and the candle flame reflected the orange shriveled cheeks, looking like a ghostly look, which was really terrifying at first glance.
Li Fan was stunned for a moment when he saw the person who came, but then remembered that the person he sensed with his spiritual sense at the door should be this person.
Thinking of this, Li Fan said casually. "Just have some food to fill your stomach and find a good room. ”
"Okay, wait a minute!" the old man slowly stepped back, holding the wax.
Li Fan secretly felt a little palpitating at the strange scenes in this city, this is also a city? Why is it the way it is now? If it weren't for the military service outside the city, he would even think that this is a ruined city.
