Chapter 52: Exploring Fuyu Mountain
Fuyu Mountain is composed of four peaks, the south is the South Peak, the west is the Quantu Peak, the north is the Cuiping Peak, and the Fuyu Peak is located in the east of the center. The four peaks are all steep and abnormal, rising abruptly in the mountains. The four peaks are the highest in the middle of the Fuyu Peak, and the three peaks are sanitation. The part east of the three peaks and the Fuyu Peak is slightly gentle, and you can climb the mountain on foot, and this place is the only place in the entire Fuyu Mountain where you can establish a sect.
In the legend of Fuyu Mountain, in the ancient times, this was the blessed land of the immortal family's cultivation, and thousands of years ago, the heavenly runes in the true immortals practiced in the cave of Fuyu Mountain. Tianfuzi and the same era of Tianjianzi, Tiandaozi, Tiandanzi, Tianchanzi, Tiantianzi are collectively known as the six sons of Shushan, and the five sects of the Shushan faction are named after the Dao names of the five true immortals, of course, they are inseparable from these five true immortals.
Recently, he reviewed the legends related to the Shushan faction, and was naturally familiar with the legends of Fuyu Mountain. Ancient books say that this mountain is named because there are Tianfu immortals who practice, and there are many Yu monkeys in the mountain. Regardless of these legends, at least the Tianfu Gate finally lost news from Fuyu Mountain, which was worth his trip.
This trip is all people who practice martial arts, although the mountain road is rugged and steep, there is no burden along the way. Everyone chatted and walked, and this day had come to the foot of Fu Yu Peak. Bei Mingxuan has been seriously exploring everywhere, and there are several traces of human activities along the way, but most of them are temporary camps for poachers and wild travelers, and they have not yet been found as a large-scale residence where the sect is located. Of course, the four peaks of Fuyu Mountain have a radius of hundreds of square kilometers, and the range they have walked through now is only a corner of this mountain.
Bei Ying Xuan came forward to learn from Elder Wang Yuehu, who was born in the Heavenly Fu Sect, about the results of the disciples of the past generations of exploration of Fu Yu Mountain, and he already had some idea of the situation of Fu Yu Mountain in his heart. He is now immersed in the scene, looking up at the main peak that is still more than 1,000 meters high after climbing for half a day, he actually has a vague sense of déjà vu in a trance. Bei Ming Xuan shook his head, a little puzzled in his heart, and then looked carefully in his heart, it turned out that this Fu Yu Peak was somewhat similar to the peak in the Secret Valley that got the green vine treasure gourd, but it was bigger and higher. His gaze unconsciously swept to the opposite position of the stone cave on the main peak and the peak of the Secret Valley, and no matter how strong his eyesight was, he could not see the situation on the main peak clearly. When he was thinking about how to climb up to find out, Xiao Yan, who had been standing quietly on his shoulder, became agitated and looked very excited. Suddenly, there was a long roar, and he spread his wings and went straight to the place where the clouds and mist were, and disappeared in an instant.
Bei Ming Xuan thought about it for a while, and said to Hai Ling and the others: "Ling'er, you are resting at the bottom of the peak, Xiao Yan and I will go to the peak to explore, if you come down late, you will rest here today." ”
Hai Ling and Xiao Hong had no objection, but just told him to be careful. Bei Mingxuan spread out his body and used his hands and feet together, climbing towards the peak as light and fast as an ape. After a while, he had climbed to the top of the peak, and Xiao Yan flew restlessly on a flat stone platform, chirping incessantly. Seeing Bei Mingxuan coming up, he immediately stopped on his shoulder and chirped. Bei Mingxuan stroked Xiao Yan's back feathers with his hand, and looked at the platform that was obviously artificially trimmed. On the stone wall at the end of the platform, it can be clearly seen that a tall and majestic stone gate is inlaid on the steep stone wall, but it looks like a stone wall, and ordinary people must think that some boring stonemason carved a stone door cliff carving on the stone wall.
Bei Mingxuan, who had experienced the Migu Cave Mansion, naturally knew that this should be another Cave Mansion of an Ancient Immortal Cultivator. From Xiao Yan's chatter, he sensed the meaning of a little bit, this Fu Yufeng's cave should have a great relationship with Xiao Yan, or also have a connection with the owner of Migu Cave Mansion. Bei Mingxuan walked to the front of the cave and stretched out his hand to caress the stone door, the cold stone was no different from ordinary rocks. He then tried to open the stone door by a variety of means, including pushing with brute force, sharpening with his sword, scraping the crack with the blade of the sword, striking his head and kicking him with his foot. When he finally wanted to bite with his teeth, Xiao Yan finally couldn't help but scream angrily from his sluggishness, turned his head away from looking at Bei Mingxuan, and expressed great contempt for his master's stupidity.
Bei Mingxuan laughed a few times, in fact, he was just venting the depression in his heart. There are countless myths and legends in the world, but there is almost no record of finding the Immortal Cave Mansion, and he has found two places in a row, but he is still blocked outside the door, and he is even more breathless than not finding it, isn't it? In the attempt just now, he already knew that the stone door in front of him was not something he could open at all. Whether it was a hard push or a sword cut, he could feel a rebound force on the stone gate blocking his strength, and how strong the attack was, how strong the rebound power was. If you rashly increase the intensity of destruction, there is a chance that you will hurt yourself. Fortunately, he only tried a little, and Shimen was only a passive defense, who knows if there will be a counter-attack force after increasing the strength?
Bei Mingxuan asked, "Xiao Yan, how do you open this stone door?"
Xiao Yan still tilted his head and ignored him, Bei Mingxuan knew that his childish scene just now made Xiao Yan angry. He couldn't help but smile and explained a few words to Xiao Yan, who turned his head and rubbed his face. He shook his head at him with a serious expression, and chirped a few times, as if to comfort his master, and as if to explain something.
Bei Mingxuan nodded, at least he understood that this stone door was not something he could open right now. He gave up trying and climbed directly to the summit, where several ancient trees and strange stones were scattered everywhere in a radius of hundreds of square meters. One of the huge stones standing obliquely is like a large umbrella stretched out, two stone tables under the stone, eight stone benches, the stone is round and smooth, and the table top is neatly carved with two sets of chessboards, it seems that the immortals will occasionally be interested in playing chess on the top of this peak. Bei Mingxuan looked around, and the peak was also covered by clouds and mist, and he couldn't see clearly. He noticed that a valley to the west seemed to be very dense with fog, a little different from the rest of the place, but other than that, there was nothing unusual. Bei Mingxuan and Xiao Yan descended the mountain peak and informed Hai Ling and others of the situation.
Hai Ling said: "The seniors in the door have visited many times and have not found the cave, but you found it as soon as you came, but it is not a big discovery." ”
Xiao Hong and the others also nodded yes, and Bei Mingxuan smiled and said, "It's also the same reason, today we will find the Tianfu station that Uncle Wang said to repair." ”
Everyone got up and walked around the mountain peak to the south, turned the foot of the mountain, as recorded by the predecessors, the west of Tianfu Peak, the place surrounded by the four peaks is a deep valley, more than 300 meters, the four sides are cliffs, there is no road to pass. They are now walking on the edge of the valley, the valley basin covers an area of more than a dozen square kilometers, at a glance the valley fog is blurred, through the fog vaguely see that the valley bottom is like a Gobi desert, everywhere strange rocks are very desolate. The situation in the valley is different from the verdant life of the mountains on all sides, as if it had been bombed alive after a modern war.
Bei Mingxuan said: "Could it be that this valley has been blasted out by meteorites outside the sky? ”
Xiao Hong touched his nose and said, "Uncle Xuan, do you think that the Tianfu Gate was originally in the valley and was completely destroyed by a meteorite?"
Bei Mingxuan was stunned for a moment, this guess seems to be reasonable, it makes sense, otherwise even if the people of a sect are in decline, the people of the sect are scattered, how can they suddenly disappear without a trace?
Hai Ling took her lover's hand and said, "Aren't we just here to find out, let's go to the destination first, and then discuss the next step." ”
Bei Mingxuan said: "The good wife is reasonable, let's not talk about it, let's go." ”
After walking a few kilometers along the cliff, I found the first mark that Wang Yuehu said, which was a cliff. On one side of this cliff is the straight and steep Tianfu Peak, and on the other side is the deep valley, the cliffs are separated by more than ten meters, and the cableways originally erected on both sides of the cliff have long been decayed. Of course, this distance is not a burden for the Northern Xuanxuan, and the distance of more than ten meters can be jumped over. Xiao Hong and they couldn't wait to pass, and Bei Mingxuan picked up the sea spirit and jumped over, sweeping over the cliff like a wind.
After landing on the ground, Hai Ling looked around and said to Bei Mingxuan: "Xiao Xuan, I smelled the aroma of flowers and plants when I passed the cliff, but I didn't see any flowers and plants nearby." ”
Bei Mingxuan stopped and said, "The fragrance of flowers, really, I also smell it when you say that, it should be from under the cliff." ”
He said in surprise as he turned around and looked down at the edge of the cliff, a distance of more than 300 meters that ordinary people couldn't see clearly, Bei Mingxuan was burdened with internal force, not to mention that his five senses were far beyond ordinary people, and he would sweep the situation under the cliff after a while. The bottom of the cliff is no different from other places in the valley, strange rocks and gravel, there are no traces of grass and trees, but the clear aroma of flowers and plants is faint, and Xiao Hong and others have all smelled it. Bei Mingxuan knew that something was wrong, and it was not clear what the reason was, but he still had some ideas in his heart after he had been able to arrange the phantom array.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Let's get to the destination first, and then we can fix it." ”
Everyone nodded, no longer delved, and went straight to the Tianfu Gate station. After walking for about 40 minutes and more than 20 kilometers of mountain road, we went around to the middle of Nanshan Peak and Tianfu Peak. There is a vacant land about 2,000 square meters in size next to the deep valley, and a stone mountain in the north is about 300 meters high. There are three slightly modified holes on the stone mountain, and when you walk into the hole, there are traces of artificial decoration in it, but it is not carefully polished but it is just a blank, and there are traces of bonfires in it, which should be left by people who hunted and traveled wildly later.
Xiao Hong and the others chose a clean cave, cleaned it carefully, and everyone sat down to light a bonfire and prepare food. This time to explore the old land of Tianfu, they made sufficient preparations, food and various tools were prepared, except for Hai Ling, who was weaker than the eight people, the others were fully equipped and had sufficient supplies. After enjoying a sumptuous dinner, everyone sat down around the campfire to rest.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning before dawn, Bei Mingxuan and Hai Ling got up early and climbed to the top of the mountain. The two stood on a boulder at the top of the mountain, gently embracing each other, quietly waiting for the sunrise moment in this primeval mountain. At the end of the sky, a red sun slowly peeked out from behind the distant horizon, and then rose into the air in a jump, and the morning glow reflected the mountain peaks in bright red. Clouds embraced the red sun like stars holding the moon, and a fresh breath of sunlight came to the face.
Xiao Hong, who was busy preparing breakfast at the bottom of the mountain, and the others looked up at the top of the mountain at the same time. The two people bathed in golden light stood on the boulder on the top of the mountain, like mountains and clouds and Tianfu peaks, merging with the cloudy sky to become one. All those who saw this scene had a thought called worship from the bottom of their hearts, and the person on the top of the mountain would one day become a god who made people bow down?
Bei Mingxuan quietly experienced this rare peace, his beloved wife snuggled up to him, and the picturesque natural beauty intoxicated him. Gradually, he entered the realm of selflessness, Hai Ling has been with him for so many years, and has practiced the Heavenly Xuandi Spirit Exercises taught to her by Bei Mingxuan, so she naturally knows that her lover has entered a state of selflessness of epiphany. Hai Ling held his breath and leaned quietly beside him, not disturbing him in the slightest.
"Man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law of the Tao, and the Tao is the law of nature", nature is the highest state of the Tao. Bei Mingxuan fell into this kind of natural fusion without self and nothing, and his mind and soul power were rapidly improving. In just such a short moment, a faint glow emanated from his sea of consciousness, and the sea of consciousness did not expand much, but it was more stable. As the sun gradually rose, the sunlight slowly sprinkled over the entire valley, and a golden ray of sunlight seemed to shoot into the sea of consciousness of the North Immortal, and the entire pale green sea of consciousness was also reflected with a faint golden light.
Bei Mingxuan's closed eyes jumped, and he felt that the entire valley under the Tianfu Peak was like a fresh breeze blowing across the lake, causing layers of ripples. His heart moved, and he immediately opened his eyes and looked intently, only to find that everything was as usual.
Bei Mingxuan smiled and nodded, and said to Hai Ling: "Ling'er, I see that this valley is a little strange, I'm afraid it's a huge phantom array." ”
Hai Ling said suspiciously, "Such a large phantom array? It has existed for countless years, it is incredible. ”
Bei Mingxuan looked around and said: "You see, these four peaks are faintly a natural four-elephant gathering spirit array, with the modification and perfection of the heavenly rune formation masters of the past dynasties, it must be the condensation of heaven and earth vitality, and the valley should also be full of spiritual energy, infinite vitality, there are many fairy grasses, good trees, rare birds and beasts, how can it be such a desolate appearance." ”
Hai Ling said, "Didn't you say that it could be destroyed by a meteorite?"
Bei Mingxuan said: "You have to go down to the bottom of the valley and take a look at the spot to be sure, let's go down and let Xiao Hong and them go their separate ways." ”
The two of them came down the mountain, and they had already prepared breakfast, and several people chatted while eating. Suddenly, one of the three disciples of the Shushan Sect ran out of a cave at a rapid pace.
He shouted, "Master, Master, come and see, there are words, there are words." ”
These three disciples have already worshiped under the Northern Underworld Xuanmen and become his official disciples, and all three of them are sixteen or seventeen years old, which is the age of jumping out of activity, and they are rummaging around early in the morning, and they are really turning out some things.
Bei Mingxuan asked, "Yi Rong, what word, where is it?"
This disciple's name is Li Yirong, and together with Bei Mingxuan in the past few days, he knows that his young master is not like other elders in the sect, he has no shelf, and he will not pretend to reprimand himself solemnly, and he has long lost the restraint and rustiness when he first arrived. This would rush to the master, but he was panting and pointing his fingers and couldn't speak.
Hai Ling smiled: "Yirong, don't worry, what did you find? Take us to see." ”
Li Yirong nodded again and again, and pulled Bei Mingxuan away: "Master, I was just cleaning the stone bed, and there was a stone bed stretching under the stone wall, I was lying down and wanted to wipe the bottom of the stone wall, and I saw that there were words engraved on the stone wall. I didn't look closely, Master, go and take a look. ”
Bei Mingxuan said as he walked: "Yi Rong, you have been practicing ancient martial arts for almost ten years, right? You should read it carefully and write it down, or take a picture with your phone and record it as soon as possible, and the same goes for a few of you. ”
Several juniors hurriedly responded in unison: "Remember the master's (uncle) teachings." ”
Hai Ling teased: "Your master is really addicted, and you never forget to teach your disciples." ”
Bei Mingxuan smiled: "Also, with a few of them, I feel responsible in my heart." They are selected from the clan and sect, they have good qualifications, and they must always be vigilant. Dabi is only three years old, so there is no time to waste. ”
The six juniors looked straight and nodded yes. Enter the cave and come to the stone bed that Li Yirong said. Bei Mingxuan saw that a stone bed more than one meter wide had been carved obliquely out of the stone wall in the cave, and the inside of the stone bed stretched out under the stone wall. Presumably, at that time, the disciples of the Tianfu Sect were lying on the bed and wrote a few words on the top of their heads, and if they didn't lie down, no one would really find out. Xiao Hong reclined down for machine photography, and everyone watched.
There are three rows of words in total, the first row: I didn't expect Tianfu Valley to be closed;
Second row: Senior Brother Luo went, I'm so sad;
Third row: I don't want anything to happen to Master, I have to work harder tomorrow.
It seems that this valley is called Tianfu Valley, and it is certain that Tianfu Valley is indeed closed by the formation.
Bei Mingxuan pondered for a while and said: "Xiao Hong, Yi Rong, the six of you continue to search carefully, and Hai Ling and I will take Xiao Yan to the cliff, keep in touch, and meet at noon." ”
Everyone agreed to go their separate ways.
