Chapter Twenty-Four: Entering the Corpse by Mistake
Xiao Yun and the three of them all looked forward, only to see an old man carrying a medicine basket in the col at some point.
At this time, the old man was also looking at Xiao Yun and the others, with a look of surprise on his face.
It turned out that when the four of them were competing for foot strength, they had been running for so long, and they had come to the bottom of the strangely shaped peak.
"Is there anyone in the mountains?" all four of them wondered.
Tang Hao took the lead and walked over, looked around, and saw that there were strange rocks all over here, like a labyrinth, and asked the old man with his fists: "Uncle, this is the Junzhu Mountain Range?"
The old man looked Tang Hao up and down, his expression was very cautious, and he nodded and said, "This is the periphery of the Junzhu Mountain Range, who are you?"
Hearing this, the four of them glanced at each other, and their hearts became more and more strange, since there is a witch clan in the Junzhu Mountain Range, there are still traces of people?
Tang Hao smiled and said, "We are from the capital and want to enter the Junzhu Mountain Range. I heard that there are witch tribes in the mountains, I don't know if it's true or not?"
"Fake. When the old man heard this, he shook his head, "That's all rumors, I've been in this mountain for more than twenty years, and I've never seen any witches." If there were any witches in this mountain range, I would have fled long ago. ”
Tang Hao and the three of them immediately changed color, there was no Wu clan in the Junzhu Mountain Range, could it be that this time it was for nothing?
Xiao Yun's eyes flickered, and he suddenly asked, "Uncle, there doesn't seem to be anyone around here, do you live in this mountain?"
Tang Hao and the three of them were immediately stunned.
This Gobi is very large, and there are no people living in a radius of hundreds of miles, and looking at the Junzhu Mountains in front of it, it is barren, and there must be demon beasts infested, how can this old man, an ordinary person, stay in the mountains for more than 20 years? Tang Hao and the others immediately became suspicious, staring at this slender old man with blazing eyes.
The old man laughed when he heard this, he looked at Xiao Yun and the four of them, nodded, and seemed to feel that the four of them were not evildoers, and said with a smile: "If it were only my old man, he would have died in this mountain a long time ago." Just because there is a sect in this mountain, called the Zizhu Sect, I live in the Zizhu Sect, collecting medicinal herbs for the sect every day, and today I walked far away and pointed out the deep mountains, otherwise how would you see me?"
Listening to the old man's explanation, the suspicion on Tang Hao's three faces was swept away.
"Sects are generally hidden deep in the mountains and forests, and it is extremely difficult to find them in normal times. Seeing that Xiao Yun was still puzzled, Tang Hao said in a low voice, "I didn't expect that there would be a sect in this Junzhu Mountain Range, it's really a coincidence." ”
Xiao Yun was stunned, but his eyes were still flickering.
Tang Hao groaned and said to the old man: "Don't hide it from the old man, our trip is specifically to kill the Wu clan, but I didn't expect it to be all rumors, but I didn't expect that there would be a hidden cultivation sect here, if it's convenient for the old man, how about introducing us to the sect master of your sect?"
Xiao Yun opened his mouth to speak, but in the end he didn't say it.
He could see that Tang Hao was very interested in this sect hidden in the Gobi Mountains, since it was empty to kill the Wu Clan, it was not a trip in vain, and it was not worth the trip to take the opportunity to meet the sect master.
The old man looked very embarrassed, and said for a long time: "I don't see anyone here all the year round, and it is fate that you can meet me when you come here, and it's nothing to help you introduce the sect master, but I don't know if the sect master is willing to see you?"
"It doesn't matter. Tang Hao was overjoyed and said busily, "Even if it is inconvenient for the sect master to see us, as long as he can see your sect, it will be a blessing." ”
Xiao Yun wondered in his heart, as a child of a family in the capital, how could Tang Hao be so interested in a sect? Turning his head to look at Wang Yi and Tang Tongtong, there was also excitement on his face, as if a child had met a rare toy.
How did he know that Tang Hao and the three of them were in the capital every day, and they rarely had the opportunity to go out, and they had long been very curious about the rare sects hidden in the mountains, and at this time, they had this opportunity, of course, they would not let it go easily.
"Then come with me. The old man seemed to understand Tang Hao's thoughts very well, smiled and said, shrugged the medicine basket over his shoulder, and turned around and walked towards the mountain.
Tang Hao and the three of them immediately followed.
Xiao Yun didn't move for a while, he raised his head and looked at the Junzhu Mountain Range in the distance, sneered, and followed.
Along the way, Tang Hao and the three of them seemed to be very interested, pointing at the surrounding Gobi scenery and commenting in a low voice.
Xiao Yun followed last, just kept looking at the strange-shaped peaks that stood at intervals around him, and didn't say a word.
More than an hour later, the old man led the four of them to a big mountain.
The mountain is made up of several nearby peaks, like a giant outstretching its arms around it, and in front of you is a narrow mountain stream of a width of a few feet, and when you look up, the cliffs on both sides are like cutting, and it is extremely steep.
"Go inside, it's the Purple Bamboo Sect. After walking for a long time, the old man looked a little tired, and after a little introduction, he walked along the mountain road.
After walking out of more than 100 zhang, the terrain began to become inclined upward, and began to have steps, and the old man walked up the steps with ease.
After a cup of tea, after stepping the last step, it suddenly opened up in front of me, but it was a flat land with a radius of more than ten acres.
In the center of the open space is a wide bluestone square, which should be the martial arts training ground in the sect. When these three or four people saw the old man enter the sect with Xiao Yun and the four of them, they only glanced at it a few times, and then continued to cultivate and no longer cared.
Directly in front of the square, a majestic stone hall was built.
The old man led the four of them through the square and into the stone hall.
"The four of you are here for a while, and I'll go and tell the sect master. Eight seats were placed in two rows in the hall, and the old man took the medicine basket off his shoulder and stretched out his hand for the four to sit down.
Tang Hao arched his hand and said, "Old man, please do it." ”
At the same time, Tang Hao and the three of them all felt a little strange, this stone hall was undoubtedly the most imposing building in the Zizhu Sect, and most of them were the most important places in the sect such as the Great Hall, how could this old man casually bring the four of them in, and he looked like he was used to it lightly.
Could it be that this old man is not a servant of the sect collecting medicine, but an existence with a high status?
At this time, I suddenly heard Xiao Yun snort coldly: "Old man, slow down." ”
The old man turned around slowly and asked, "This little brother, do you still have?"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Yun suddenly open his mouth, and a white drunken force the thickness of a finger immediately squirted out of his mouth, and shot violently into the old man's neck, shooting out from the back of his neck.
The old man's throat only rang, and he fell straight to the ground without saying a word.
Tang Hao and the others never dreamed that Xiao Yun would suddenly kill him, so he was immediately taken aback and stood up from his seat suddenly.
"Are you crazy?!" Wang Yi shouted as he pointed at Xiao Yun.
At this time, as soon as Wang Yi's voice fell, he saw that dozens of places on the ground of the main hall suddenly bulged upward, and then the sound of "Pengpeng" sounded, and the soil and stones splashed for a while, and more than 30 people slowly drilled out from under the ground.
These people were neatly dressed, but their hair and clothes were covered with dirt, their complexions were extremely pale, and their eyes were hollow, and after they stood up from the ground, they staggered and surrounded Xiao Yun and the others. Looking at the old man who was killed by Xiao Yun, he slowly got up from the ground, staggered around, stared at Xiao Yun, and walked step by step.
"Drunk!" Tang Hao and Wang Yi were shocked, exclaimed, and before they could think about it, their hands were shocked, and they immediately each had an extra weapon in their hands.
Wang Yi used the power of wine to conjure up a long sword, but Tang Hao was a big knife more than a zhang long.
And Tang Tongtong also had an extra long sword in his hand at this time, but this long sword was not made of wine power, but a real light blue long sword, Tang Tongtong opened his cherry lips and squirted a mouthful of wine power into the long sword, and the wine power immediately attached to the sword body, and quickly spread to the entire long sword, turning into a white gas film wrapped around the long sword.
