Chapter 24: Caution
In any case, the Xuanming Sage disappeared after all, and the Xuanming Palace also disappeared, no one knows where the Xuanming Palace went, but there are other rumors that the Xuanming Sage sealed the Xuanming Palace somewhere, leaving a map, waiting for someone to find it and get the inheritance of the Xuanming Sage and inherit his mantle.
When he first heard this rumor, Situ Yu just laughed it off and didn't take it seriously.
But looking at the Xuanming diagram in his hand in front of him, he felt that he was short of breath, his heart was beating violently, and he was speechless for a long time.
Situ Yu almost held his breath, and hurriedly looked at the map on the beast skin scroll, trying to find out the location of the Xuanyuan Palace.
But at this moment, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps behind Situ Yu.
Situ Yu's expression changed greatly, and when he looked back, he saw that Qin Batian and Ye Hu had already chased after a group of people and horses.
"Not good!" Situ Yu snorted secretly, and hurriedly put the Xuanming Diagram in his hand into his arms and put it close to him.
I got up and looked around, there were mountains on both sides, the pursuers in the back, and a raging river in front, if I went up the mountain now, I couldn't escape with my physical strength.
"There, chase after you!" The other party's voice was already heard behind him, and Qin Batian and the others had already rushed over, less than a hundred meters away from here.
Situ Yu turned around and took a look, his expression was gloomy, he gritted his teeth, and dragged his tired body towards the big river in front of him.
"Staying is death, escaping is death, it's better to jump directly into the river to die!" Situ Yu muttered in a low voice, and jumped into the turbulent river, splashing a ball of water and disappearing.
It didn't take long for Qin Batian and the others to arrive.
"Master, Chu Yunming is dead!" a black-armored soldier came to Qin Batian's side and reported.
"What?," Qin Batian exclaimed in surprise, hurriedly came to Chu Yunming's corpse, kicked twice, and seeing that he didn't react, he hurriedly stopped and searched for him.
"Damn, where's the thing?" Qin Batian roared like thunder, and after searching for a long time, there was no trace of the Xuanying Diagram.
Ye Hu stood aside with a dull expression, glanced at Qin Batian, who was jumping like thunder, and a flash of resentment flashed in his eyes.
Then he walked silently to the bank of the river, and Ye Hu looked at the turbulent river blankly. His eyes were cold and glowing, and his fists were clenched together, making a gurgling sound of crackling bones.
Although the winter has just passed, but it is also just spring, the weather is still very cold, the river is even colder, as soon as Situ Yu entered the river, he felt that his whole body was stiff, and he lost consciousness in an instant, his limbs were numb, and he poured several mouthfuls of water one after another, his consciousness gradually blurred, and he fainted.
Although the Hongtian Empire is not a big country on the Wuyuan Continent, its area is huge.
The place where Situ Yu is located is the Qinglin Continent of the Hongtian Empire, in the Seven Wolves County.
This Seven Wolves County is the westernmost county of the Hongtian Empire, which is extremely remote, thousands of miles of mountains, and borders the Wuling Empire.
The surrounding mountains stretch and the mountains stand, but the most famous mountain in the Seven Wolves County is called the Seven Wolves Mountain, because it is rumored that there are seven evil wolves in the mountain, and the Seven Wolves County is also named after it.
There is a silkworm river under the Seven Wolf Mountain, which runs through the mountains, across the middle of the entire Hongtian Empire, even the Wuling Empire, and its wide and turbulent, it is rumored that this Silkworm River is bottomless, and if ordinary people fall, they will definitely die.
However, near the Seven Wolf Mountain, there are three official roads, which lead directly to Qingyang City, which is hundreds of miles away, and the official roads also lead to Linxian County, Zhou County.
This city and two counties are also the only three cities in Seven Wolf County, this kind of small place is often mixed, and there are many bandits and bandits between the mountains.
Among them, there are three most famous gangs, one is the Scorpion Gang in Qingyang City, one is the Seven Wolves Gang of Seven Wolf Mountain, and one is the Seven Tigers Gang of Heavenly Wolf Mountain.
It is rumored that the strength of the Seven Wolves Gang is not bad, and it is also quite famous in the green forest, but what is surprising is that the four leaders of the Seven Wolves Gang are all women.
On a sunny day in March, the birds and flowers on the Seven Wolves Mountain are fragrant, the trees are vibrant, and the clear spring in the mountains reflects a strange brilliance under the illumination of the sun.
In this small valley on the Seven Wolves Mountain, there are bamboo buildings and houses.
Outside the valley, the trees are so thick that they form a barrier.
And there is a large flag planted on a wooden wall, and three big characters are written on it: Seven Wolves Gang.
At this time, it was in a wing room in a bamboo building deep in the valley of Mt. Shichiro.
On the bed, Situ Yu closed his eyes and lay quietly, and a ray of sunlight came in from the window, as if disturbing Situ Yu on the bed.
Situ Yu opened his eyes slightly, and soon narrowed a little uncomfortably, and only after a while did he definitely open his eyes.
Situ Yu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, he moved his body, and found that his whole body was cold, and he was so weak that he couldn't lift half of his strength, so he hurriedly ran the Heaven Devouring Spell to investigate.
I found that the toxins in my body had been absolutely cleared at some point, and the internal injuries he suffered had also recovered, which was obviously caused by the body of King Kong and the subtlety of the Heaven Swallowing Spell.
Situ Yu subconsciously touched his Yin Tang, it was very hot, and then he remembered that he jumped into the river to survive, and quickly glanced around, and couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, obviously he was not dead, and the toxins were cleared, and the internal injuries were healed, but it was because of the cold of the river ice. That's when I felt debilitated.
"I don't know where this is? Could it be that someone from the Qin family found it?" Situ Yu frowned slightly, and couldn't help but think secretly worried in his heart.
"Hey, you're awake!" At this moment, a crisp and pleasant voice suddenly came from outside.
A slim and extremely handsome girl in a hakama walked in, holding a bowl of steaming ginger soup in her hand.
Situ Yu turned over and got up with difficulty: "It was the girl who saved me?"
"What do you think? I didn't expect that your life was so big, and you didn't drown if you fell into the Silkworm River. The girl came to Situ Yu with ginger soup, smiled slightly, and handed over the ginger soup in her hand at the same time, and said, "Since you have woken up, let's drink the ginger soup while it is hot, this is what Miss Ben can boil herself." ”
"Thank you girl for saving your life!" When Situ Yu heard this, he knew that he had not fallen into the hands of the Qin family, so he breathed a long sigh of relief.
Then Situ Yu took the ginger soup in the woman's hand, and was thirsty, so he poured it down.
Spicy in the throat.
"Ahem...... Situ Yu couldn't help coughing violently, and tears came out.
"Giggle...... No one is robbing you, what are you doing so fast!" Seeing this, the girl covered her mouth and laughed.
Situ Yu relieved for a long time, and then raised his head and looked at the woman carefully.
The woman's figure is not very tall, but her posture is unusually exquisite, and she wears a light blue hakama skirt, outlining a moving curve.
The elegant cheeks are slightly bent with thin eyebrows, a small cherry mouth, and two small dimples at the corners of the mouth when smiling, which is extremely cute and playful, and the skin is pink and greasy, like a half-ripe peach.
Situ Yu looked a little stupid, looking at the woman in front of him, he suddenly had an illusion, as if he saw Situ Ling standing in front of him.
Situ Ling also likes hakama, Situ Ling also has two cute little dimples when he smiles, and they both love to laugh, at least in front of him, but this girl is more immature and lively than Situ Ling.
"What are you looking at? Is there a flower on my face?" The girl saw Situ Yu staring at her blankly, blinked her big eyes, and said dissatisfiedly.
Situ Yu came back to his senses at this time, avoided the girl's gaze, his expression was quite gloomy, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, but seeing you reminds me of a person, I'm a little distracted, I hope the girl doesn't mind." ”
The girl stared at Situ Yu's handsome white face with interest, and suddenly burst out laughing.
Situ Yu inquired and learned that this place was Seven Wolf Mountain in Seven Wolf County.
It is not far from Qingyang City, because it borders the Wuling Empire, so there are many bandits. And he is in the Seven Wolves Gang of Seven Wolf Mountain.
The fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl in front of her is called Lin Huiwen, the daughter of Lin Haili, the big boss of the Seven Wolves Gang, and she can be regarded as the young leader of the Seven Wolves Gang.
I really didn't expect that I had just escaped from the thieves, and I had fallen into another den of thieves, and it was also a group of thieves! Situ Yu thought to himself, feeling ridiculous.
But after thinking about it, he was relieved, after all, he left Situ Mansion to travel, hone his martial arts, increase his knowledge, and when he had a certain strength, he was looking for the enemy who killed Situ Ling, and by the way, he was looking for his mother's traces.
Lin Huiwen walked around Situ Yu a few times, looked up and down, blinked and asked, "Listening to your accent, it doesn't seem like you're a local, and you don't look like an ordinary person in this outfit, but why do you want to jump the Silkworm River? Aren't you impatient?"
Hearing this, Situ Yu was slightly stunned, then rolled his eyes and said: "You and I want to jump into the river, because I met robbers and were chased and killed, and I was forced to jump off the Silkworm River." ”
"Robbers?" When Lin Huiwen heard this, she opened her small mouth, pointed at Situ Yu and said in surprise: "Are you not from the Chu family?"
At this time, Situ Yu was shocked.
"A few days ago, the Qin family came to collect all the gangs within a radius of hundreds of miles, saying that there was a rare treasure in the Chu family's convoy, and if anyone grabbed it, his Qin family was willing to pay 100,000 taels of gold to buy it. But your name is Situ Yu, not Chu Yun?" Lin Huiwen glanced at Situ Yu again, and the little girl had a thoughtful and serious look on her face.
Situ Yu came here for the first time, when he heard Lin Huiwen's words, he couldn't help but be on guard in his heart, the heavy treasure she said was naturally on him, and it seemed that the Seven Wolves Gang also knew that at this time, in case of covetousness, they would inevitably assassinate themselves after knowing that the treasure was on him.
