Chapter 0010: Set off on a treasure hunt
Early the next morning, Tianchi came to the martial arts platform in front of Chongtian Peak, and there were seven other disciples who came with him, and the elders did not go with them, because it was not appropriate for any elder to go, and this matter itself was not suitable for publicity.
And these seven disciples, including Tianchi, are a total of two women and six men, the female disciple Tianchi does not know, one of them is covered with white veil, looking extremely indifferent, dressed in purple, and his figure is not bad. The other one is more lively and seems to have a good relationship with the white gauze woman.
As for the six male disciples, four of them didn't know him, and the only thing that surprised Tianchi was that Kong Ming, who had been at odds with him before, and the Sky Realm that he had met before, was actually on the list.
After that, the sect master and the elders said some words of encouragement, and the group of eight people left the sect.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, they each took a horse and drove north.
The journey was a long way, and the destination was a jungle thousands of miles away from the Thousand Water Sect, and it took about two and a half days to ride the Divine Horse. Of course, if everyone abandons their horses and runs, it will be much faster, and they can arrive in a day at most, but that would be too physically demanding.
On the first day, a group of eight people drove more than 500 miles non-stop, and in the evening, the horse could not run after sitting down, and finally had to dismount and camp in the field.
There were four tents in total, and Tianchi did not huddle with everyone, but found a big tree to tie the horse and jumped on the treetops.
Because Tianchi was the main person on this trip, there was no night watch.
"Senior Sister Canglan, do you calculate whether our trip will be dangerous?"
Just as everyone was sitting around the bonfire, the slightly lively girl hurriedly smiled and asked the white-gauze girl Canglan.
This surprised Tianchi, not because Cang Lan knew the art of predestination, but because the other party's characters. If the first word is "Cang", it should be the Concentration Realm, and the Canglan in front of him, who is only seventeen or eighteen years old, doesn't look like the Concentration Realm.
Besides, this predestination technique, in Tianchi's view, this is completely the technique of the left path, he doesn't believe that anyone can really predict the future, if there is really such a person, then what kind of thing can be easily obtained as long as it is not calculated?
And Cang Lan also hesitated after hearing this, and then took out four pieces of eight-sided black wood chips with a diameter of about two or three centimeters and a thickness of less than half a centimeter.
I've heard of this thing Tianchi, which is made from the top bark of the east, south, west and north of the colorful glazed tree, and the name is "Extreme Wood", and people who understand the art of predestination need to use this thing to assist.
As he spoke, Cang Lan threw the extreme wood into the air, and when it fell, each extreme wood was different, and Cang Lan began to frown after seeing the layout.
"The Great Murderer......
After a long time, Cang Lan hesitated to spit out two stiff characters, and her voice was extremely cold, making everyone who heard it feel cold.
"Hehe, compared to the predestination technique, I think you should look more at the present, I only know that if you don't rest, I'm afraid you won't have the strength to hunt for treasure when you get to the place. ”
Tianchi looked at the morale of everyone who was suddenly depressed, so he smiled noncommittally, and then said.
"What are you talking about? Senior Sister Canglan's premonition technique is passed down by her mother, and she said that if there is danger, she must not be wrong. ”
Kong Ming, who was sitting on the other side, couldn't help but get up and retort to Tianchi on the tree at this time.
Hearing the word "master", Tianchi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, their master and wife were naturally their own mother.
"Master, does she understand this......?
Tianchi pursed his lips, then raised his eyebrows and smiled.
If his mother is right, how can he not even count Tian Zongyou, who has been raising him for fifteen years, as a fake son?
"Choke!" The sword came out of its sheath, and the next moment, a cold light flashed from Tianchi's ears, and a few strands of Tianchi's hair were cut off.
"If you dare to be disrespectful to your wife again, I will behead you. ”
The voice was extremely cold, as if it came from the bottom of the Nine Hidden Valleys, yes, it was Cang Lan who made the shot.
"I don't even know where you started with your disrespect, I'll sleep if it's okay, you guys whatever. ”
Tianchi said casually without changing color, then pulled out the carved sword nailed to the tree, threw it at Canglan's feet, and then turned around and fell asleep.
And so the conversation before the campfire broke up, and everyone went back to their tents to rest.
"Hey, are you asleep?"
Just as Tianchi was closing his eyes and recuperating, a soft call like a bell sounded in his ears.
"Slept ......"
Tianchi replied weakly.
"Talking while sleeping?"
"Something?"
"It's nothing, I'm on duty at night, and I just want to ask if I'm idle, what does the secret realm look like?"
The lively girl sat on another treetop next to Tianchi, shaking her feet as she asked.
"You'd better ask the secret realm about this question, I haven't been there yet. ”
Tianchi still closed his eyes without raising his head and said.
"So you don't know, so how do you know that there must be something we're looking for in it?"
The girl asked, puzzled.
"I'm sorry, I'm going to rest. ”
Tianchi then made a perfunctory sentence and prepared to sleep.
"You're really boring, by the way, do you want to know why Senior Sister Canglan is so angry?"
Tianchi really didn't mistake the girl next to her, she was indeed lively enough, but she was a little too much, she didn't care about her anymore, she still talked to herself, it was just a chatter.
"Not interested......"
Tianchi shook his head impatiently and replied.
"I told you secretly, she was actually an orphan picked up by my mother at the bottom of the mountain, and it has been more than ten years, and I don't know who took the young sect master away, and then my mother fell seriously ill, and then there was a period of looking for children all over the world like crazy. ”
The girl still kept talking.
"What do you mean...... Is it true?"
After Tianchi heard the girl's last words, he sat up, and then asked nervously.
"I also heard what Senior Sister Canglan said, that is, at that time, Senior Sister Canglan picked up by my wife, fortunately, I found the young sect master in the back mountain later, but even then, my mother still treats Senior Sister Canglan as her own, and it is even countless times better than the young sect master, so you have to be careful next time you say bad things about your master, she will really kill you, for the sake of your master, Senior Sister Canglan can do anything. ”
The girl nodded, then explained.
"Whew...... Hahahaha, I know, okay, can you tell me your name?"
Tianchi suddenly laughed after hearing this, he would rather believe that what the girl said was true.
"I'm called Ethereal, I should thank you, because everyone is busy practicing, so few people are willing to talk to me, ah...... Only Senior Sister Canglan is willing to listen to me, but Senior Sister rarely takes the initiative to talk to me. ”
Ethereal introduced himself before he said with a smile, but looked at his tent with a sullen expression.
"Well, I owe you a favor, don't care why, just take it as your kind reminder to me, and save my life. ”
Tianchi said with a noncommittal smile.
After that, the two chatted for a while, and as soon as the ethereal night watch time came, the two went their separate ways.
It wasn't until the next morning that the men set out again, and today they did not rush as they had done yesterday, but stopped and stopped to allow the horses to slow down.
In this way, a group of eight people walked forward for another day, and in the evening, they finally arrived at the border of Haoyue Forest.
At this point, Tianchi took out the hand-drawn map and presented it to everyone, and also marked the location of the treasure.
After that, they all took it upon themselves to rest.
Until the next morning, several people got up early.
"Oh no, the two senior brothers of the Sky Realm and the Sky Pass are gone! their luggage and horses are gone. ”
Just as everyone was packing up their things, they suddenly heard someone shouting loudly.
This shout immediately made everyone panic, but Canglan walked to the place where the horses were tied and looked at it.
"They seem to have set off early, and we're chasing after them. ”
The voice was still cold, and there seemed to be a hint of murderous aura.
After hearing Cang Lan's words, everyone hurriedly turned over and got on their horses and prepared to chase them.
"Oh, wait, there's no hurry, we're on our way as usual. ”
Only Tianchi was still packing his luggage and said casually.
After listening to Tianchi's words, Kong Ming, who had already mounted the horse, was anxious, so he said loudly: "Don't worry?
"I said that if I am not in a hurry, I am not in a hurry. ”
Tianchi is still unhurriedly unreining the reins.
"Could it be that the entrance to the secret realm you said last night is fake?"
It was only at this time that everyone could see a clue, and another disciple named Kongwu couldn't help frowning and asked.
"If the treasure is really so easy to get, then what do you have to do in the secret realm where the treasure is hidden? It would be good to put it directly on the ground and let people pick it up, the most ordinary secret realm has two doors of life and death, not to mention the too empty relics, if I guessed correctly, they are dead now, of course, if you miss the love of the same door, rush to help those two collect the corpses, I have no opinion. ”
Tianchi turned over the horse and said slowly.
In Tianchi's eyes, unity is important, but if there is scum in the team and is not eliminated, the consequences are as dangerous as planting a bomb around him.
And for someone who wants to swallow the treasure alone, Tianchi doesn't feel strange at all, last night he marked the location of the door of death, in order to let people with bad intentions go to hunt for treasures and send them to death.
It's just that the only thing that makes Tianchi look away is the disciple named Kong Ming, and he didn't secretly run to hunt for treasure because of his virtue of having no one in his eyes......
Although Tianchi was smiling when he spoke, the few people around him felt a chill for no reason.
This kid can be said to be the weakest of the few, his only role is to be a guide, and when he really starts to hunt for treasures, he won't be able to help much, and will even drag everyone down to protect him, so almost no one among these people takes Tianchi seriously.
But it's such a kid who everyone looks down on, but casually lets two ill-intentioned people run to find death by themselves.
It was only at this time that the remaining five people began to face up to the existence of Tianchi.
After all, what Tianchi has is the secret of the secret realm......
