Chapter 171: Pretending to be a gecko
Halfway up the Qingyun Mountain, dense forests, many ravines, and the night is thick, the moonlight is mostly blocked by branches and leaves, and the remaining light is not enough to see.
But the birds and beasts in the forest were trembling, because they were quite spiritual and were frightened by the dangerous breath of mass in the air, and they did not dare to move, and they could not escape, so they could only shrink quietly, hiding in their nests and not daring to close their eyes.
"Who is Your Excellency, why did you break into my Sword Sect at night?" The first person to speak spoke coldly, but he seemed to be deliberately lowering his voice, a hoarse voice.
The other person laughed heartily when he heard this strange voice, and he did not hide his true colors at all, and seemed to smile with his eyebrows: "What did the senior brother say, I can't sleep at night, and I came to the mountains to enjoy the moonlight, how did I break through? But you, senior brother, why did you rush down the mountain in a murderous manner? Aren't you going to do some unsightly deeds again?"
"You...... ...... you are" The answer to his mouth came to his lips, and he didn't dare to say it, because he couldn't believe it.
He couldn't believe that the person standing opposite him was the biggest opponent in his life, the Sword Sect Refining Pavilion Old Sword Seal Elder.
Elder Sword Seal is the junior disciple of Elder Danyin, from the day he entered the sect, the two of them have been highly valued for their excellent qualifications, and they have been carefully cultivated by the elder of the Sword Sect, and to this day, they are all important figures in the Sword Sect. It's just that the two have been inseparable competitors since they were young, and you have been going back and forth all your life, if it weren't for the same door, I'm afraid you would have already fought to the death.
Now that he is old, he is not old, and he is fighting more and more fiercely and gloomy, openly competing for status and secretly competing for opportunities. In terms of strength, whether it is alchemy or refining, the two of them are between the best, and even martial arts are at a level. No one can kill anyone. It's just that Elder Danyin has an introverted and gloomy personality compared to Elder Sword Seal, so he is not as good as Elder Sword Seal to be appreciated by the Sect Master of the Sword Sect. Only then did he get the name of a Danyin elder, and he failed to take charge of the most respected refining pavilion. This is also the reason why Elder Danyin is depressed and unhappy all day long. It is also the reason why Elder Danyin tirelessly pursues progress by unscrupulous means.
"Doesn't that look like his old breath?" Elder Danyin muttered inwardly, "but this voice is definitely right, and this tone is definitely what he is used to...... Could it be that his skills have improved again? How could he ......?"
"Senior brother has been stuffed in the alchemy room all day, and I think that my skills have improved a lot, taking advantage of the thick night, let's learn from each other?" The person standing in the shadow of the tree opposite spoke arrogantly, full of energy, and his skills seemed to be unconsciously revealed from the words. The leaves rustled and the mosquitoes fell to the ground, and they all died.
"If you want to learn, we will have a bright competition at the Qianyan Kingdom Alchemy Conference in three months, and there will be no audience or referee here, so it's not interesting to fight. Elder Dan Yin was still thinking about his prey in his heart, how could he have the spare time to entangle with the "Sword Seal Elder" in front of him? Besides, this "Sword Seal Elder" had never been a person who spoke wildly, since he dared to ask him to discuss in this wilderness. There must be a certainty of victory, and there must be no good intentions. The Thousand Yan Kingdom Alchemy Conference in three months was an excellent time to improve his reputation, how could he leak the truth to his old rival before that? At this moment, he must leave quickly to avoid being calculated.
Think of it. Elder Danyin's body flickered, and then he shook ten zhang away, and the sword on his back rushed to his feet like a spiritual snake. Carrying him out against the turf, like an arrow off the string. Whoosh and disappeared.
"Senior brother is in such a hurry, where are you going? Aren't you going back to rest? Why don't you accompany your junior brother here to enjoy the bright moon. How about a heart-to-heart talk and a chat about the friendship of the same family?"
Under the shadow of the tree, the clenched fists of the "Sword Seal Elder" finally slowly loosened, and the fierce color under his eyes gradually dissolved as the Dan Yin Elder disappeared, his body suddenly tightened, and the powerful aura of his body all converged, without revealing a single bit.
Gu Jun's ten fingers were deeply inserted into the steep and slippery stone wall, and his ears were pressed against the stone wall to listen to the small movements, from which he analyzed the movements of the two powerful breaths......
Suddenly, I was shocked - one of the breaths had completely disappeared?!
However, another breath diffused everywhere on the turf of Qingyun Mountain, weak and strong, as if they were looking for something, the route was very tortuous, first in the direction of the Sword Sect Palace on the top of the mountain, and then detoured back to the forest......
Although Gu Jun has a strong spiritual sense and can listen to the sound of the ground, he is not very flexible in his control, and he does not dare to rely too much on the information he obtains, so he has to maintain the posture of "gecko", stubbornly holding on to the stone wall, motionless until dawn.
When there was a glimmer of light in the sky, Gu Jun's ears attached to the stone wall could no longer detect any movement of the two powerful breaths, and he did not dare to pretend to be a "gecko" here, he knew that as soon as the day dawned, the disciples of the Sword Sect would move around on Qingyun Mountain, collecting medicine, hunting, and patrolling the mountains, and his big "gecko" would be exposed sooner or later.
But he didn't dare to climb up like this, for fear of bumping into a living person on the mountain road, not explaining why he appeared on the mountain road, and it was very likely that someone would pull him back to the Sword Sect, so he would have to drill into the suffocating stone room again for alchemy.
Since he has already been scared, he can't live a day of fear like that, and if he is pulled back to the Sword Sect, he will not be far from death.
At this moment, if you can't go up, you can only go down.
Gu Jun looked down, only to see that the fog was misty under him, he couldn't see the mountains clearly, he couldn't see the clear water, he couldn't see the trees clearly, he couldn't even see the colors, and his eyes were all white.
It is conceivable that the depth of this mountain stream is really bottomless, and even a strong man like Gu Jun looks scared, and the soles of his feet are weak. At this moment, even if there is a bird hovering in this mountain stream, Gu Jun can feel a little at ease, but the big birds and small birds have not seen a single one.
"Master, it's better for you not to go down, the animals here call this 'bottomless abyss', and none of the animals they say have come up again. Ink Frog persuaded.
"Don't think that the ink frog and I can fly, we can fly down to pick you up, there is no bottom below, in case there is no place to stay, we just jump down, and we will not be able to pick you up. The white tiger frightened, "Birds don't go to the place where they, do you think it's suitable for flying?"
"Why are you two so nervous? I just want to move down a certain distance so as not to be discovered by the people above, why do I want to go down to the bottom at once? Do you have nothing to do?" Gu Jun muttered in his heart angrily, but he was in good spirits, for fear that if one of them accidentally fell down, then he really wanted to see the "bottomless abyss where birds don't" in the mouth of the ink frog and the white tiger!
Gu Jun's body Xuan Heavy Secret True Yuan gathered on the tips of his ten fingers, making the five fingers of one of his hands as hard as iron, so that he could support his body with one arm, and pulled out a hand to move his body downward little by little.
The sun is rising, the glow is ten thousand ways, everything is awake, the whole Qingyun Mountain is full of vitality, the birds in the mountains and forests are fragrant, as if forgetting the nightmare of last night......
Gu Jun's fingers were pulled out of the mountain again and again, and then inserted into the hard mountain stone again and again, the pain is self-evident, the flesh and blood on the finger have been blurred with the stone chips, mixed together, and the color of the flesh skin can no longer be seen, but it is a little more bright red blood than the mountain stone......
Gu Jun has been able to endure pain since he was a child, and now in order to save his life, he pokes the stone wall with his fingers, this pain is nothing, but he has to move down against the vertical mountain wall in broad daylight, but he can't make a sound, otherwise he is afraid that he will attract the attention of the people of the Sword Sect, and his efforts will be wasted.
It wasn't until he moved to the point that his body was surrounded by white mist, that Gu Jun stopped, he knew that this layer of fog was his best shield, and even if the people above poked their heads down, they couldn't see their figures.
However, how long can I survive on this slippery and steep mountain wall like a "big gecko"? Will I survive until the next night?
In the final analysis, he is also a person, not a "gecko", and he can stick to the stone wall safely, not by the suction cup on the palm, but by the strength of ten fingers.
Although the pool in this body is large, it seems that it is not enough to maintain this posture for a day and night. Because, Gu Jun clearly felt that more than half of the true yuan of the Xuanzhong Secret in his body had been consumed, and the current sun was still in the east of the sky. (To be continued......)
