Volume 1: Yunlu Small Realm Chapter 22: The Mystery of the Hidden River
Suddenly, a fluttering figure on the river attracted the attention of the two.
"Help, help!" The embarrassed Jun Feng desperately approached the shore.
Just about to go ashore, I saw a huge chelicera break out of the water, and the black chelicera was covered with dense barbs.
With a "bang", the chelicera pierced Jun Feng's body, and the smell of blood once again filled the river.
Regardless of the pain, Jun Feng jumped up, and his spiritual power pushed him up.
Jun Feng fell outside the stone tablet of Youhe, and the chelicera disappeared as if it had a sense.
The river has returned to its former calmness.
Xu Miaomiao, who was present, shuddered together, and Jun Feng, who had just passed out as soon as he landed on the shore, was also briefly dealt with.
Xu Miaomiao and Liming are not medical cultivators, so they can only do some simple treatment.
However, fortunately, the status of Dawn was high enough, and the pill was also of high grade, and in less than half an hour, Jun Feng slowly woke up.
"Thank you Brother Nan'an and this fellow Taoist for saving your life." When Jun Feng was fluttering on the surface of the river, he saw the two people standing next to the stone tablet of the hidden river.
At this time, Jun Feng's eyes were rolling slightly, and Xu Miao knew that he was playing with other ideas.
"Jun Daoyou, if you don't want to be fed by us to the Youhe Spider, let's honestly explain the situation." Xu Miao Miao said as he spoke, and an iron sword of cold light hunting was placed on his neck.
"Nan Daoyou, Nan Daoyou, the sword has no eyes, the sword has no eyes...... Can you put it down first? Jun Feng swallowed his saliva and gently pushed the iron sword out.
The pampered dawn is no stranger to this scene, the world of cultivating immortals is not a paradise, one moment everyone is still friends, and the next moment they can stab each other in the back.
Don't look at Jun Feng's soft and weak appearance, the flowers and intestines in the secret can already be coiled into a mountain.
Liming saw that Xu Miaomiao was just pretending, and he couldn't do it, but it was very likely to scare.
"This gentleman Daoyou, if you don't want to be beaten by two, just explain it honestly." Li Mingsu held the sword flower in his hand and pierced straight into Jun Feng's wound.
……
Under the threat of force from the two, Jun Feng confessed everything he knew.
Jun Feng came to Youhe a day ago.
At that time, the river was calm and peaceful, not as terrible as it is now, and there was a white jade bridge leading to the other side above the river.
No matter how you look at it, it's a picture of quiet years.
Jun Feng didn't think so, after all, he was attacked by a spider swarm in the first level, and it took a lot of effort to escape from the spider's mouth, and it shouldn't be so simple to escape from the second level.
So, Jun Feng meditated and rested beside the stone tablet, waiting for the arrival of other monks.
An hour later, several foundation-building monks arrived.
When they saw Jun Feng recuperating, they inquired.
Then Jun Feng was caught by them on the White Jade Bridge.
Opportunity is precious, life is higher.
A faint light flashed in the eyes of several monks, and they pushed Jun Feng forward.
Jun Feng, who was fighting hard, walked very slowly, and was whipped up by the monk with the aura condensed into a whip.
Jun Feng grinned in pain, but he couldn't go against the monk's will.
When he reached the other side, the monks walked up calmly.
Halfway through, only the clatter and cracking sound were heard, and the white jade bridge broke in response, and the foundation monk also fell into the river.
Plop, plop, dumpling-like sounds attract a nightmarish presence.
The huge chelicerae cut it off, and the calm river was stained with the blood of the stump.
After seeing this scene, Jun Feng's face became more and more pale, for fear that the next target of this river spider would be himself.
Even when he reached the other side, he did not have the courage to move forward.
On the shore, spiders the size of pegasus shook the rocks on their bodies, and they woke up from their slumber, looking at their prey not far away with scarlet eyes.
Jun Feng picked up the iron sword, endured the pain, and fought with the awakened spiders.
Among them, the spiders he killed were dragged into the water by the chelicerae in the hidden river.
Jun Feng numbly faced the spider, killing without knowing the time.
When he was about to die, a team of Jindan monks came by treading water.
A bright white jade bridge stood on both sides of the river again, but the Jindan monks did not go up, but walked in the direction of Junfeng.
Jun Feng thought that he was saved, but unexpectedly, a huge black spider appeared from the depths of the hidden river and swallowed the Jindan monk in one gulp.
On the huge chelicerae, the blood of the Jindan monk remained, and the river spider shrank back.
The spiders on the shore seemed to feel some kind of calling, and jumped into the river one by one.
On the shore, only Jun Feng was left.
Jun Feng simply cleaned himself up, and after doing some simple cleaning, he fell asleep.
When he woke up, he was already dragged to the Youhe River by the huge chelicerae of the black spider, and then, it was he who saved himself and met Xu Miaomiao and them.
Xu Miaomiao's eyes flashed with disbelief, since the spider in the river could swallow several golden pills in one bite, how could the small qi training period smoothly escape back to the shore?
"I know you don't believe it, and I can't believe it, after all, it can swallow the golden pill without much effort, and I don't know why it was lucky enough to get away with a small life." Jun Feng raised his hand and swore as he spoke.
A white light flashed, and the three people present knew that this was an oath of heaven and earth, and as long as Jun Feng made a mistake, he would be eaten by the oath.
But now, Jun Feng is still the same as he was just now, and his aura has not weakened a bit.
"If what Jun Daoyou said is true, then we should think about how to pass the test." Dawn was the first to break the silence and looked at the two of them.
Xu Miaomiao also put aside her prejudices and discussed it with Jun Feng.
The stone monument of the dark river not far away beside them emitted a dark blue light, as if it was summoning something......
After discussing for most of the day, the three of them still didn't find any breakthrough.
Jun Feng searched up and down, but he didn't find anything related to spiders.
Just as the three of them were about to give up, a strong man's escape struck.
"Mingxian's nephew." Under the rough voice, he looked like a jade-like son.
"Uncle Am." Dawn, who met an acquaintance, narrowed his eyes and greeted him.
Seeing this, Xu Miaomiao and the two also hugged their fists to greet their elders.
“…… Is this your new friend? Uncle An swept them gently, and Xu Miao felt a mountain pressing down.
"Yes, Uncle An, stop quickly, if it weren't for Nan Daoyou, I would have been blocked in the maze by spiders." Dawn knew that Uncle Ann was taking care of him, but that was not right for his true friend.
Uncle An immediately dissipated his coercion, and a hint of fun flashed in his eyes.
"Are you alright?" Dawn looked at the two of them with apologies flashing in her eyes.
Xu Miaomiao was fine, her face was a little pale, but Jun Feng, who was just injured on the side, was a little bad - the wound was soaked in blood again, and the original injury was aggravated.
Jun Feng gritted his teeth, took out the hemostatic pill from the storage bag, and swallowed several pieces in a row.
Dawn communicates the situation with Uncle Ann, but gets an even more shocking truth.
Jun Feng didn't come here yesterday, but five days ago!
It turned out that the Jindan team had come with Uncle An, who had been staying in the labyrinth because he was looking for the dawn.
Jun Feng had a white face, and after listening to the narration of An Guang's predecessor (Uncle An), he couldn't help but swallow several times.
If everything is as An Guang's predecessors said, this secluded river may not be a good place.
The four of them knew that there was a lot of fog here, so they dismissed their original plans.
An Guang originally wanted to retreat to the cobweb maze, but couldn't find his way back...... When they came, there was only one passage, but now there are several forks in the road in front of them, and they can't see the edge at all.
In a dilemma, the four pairs of eyes flashed with jealousy, looking at the quiet river in the distance, like a lurking giant beast watching them secretly.
After many temptations, the four found safety - behind the stone monument.
Once you enter the stele, the river will change, and after retreating to the stele, everything will be calm again.
Except for An Guang, who can open the valley, the remaining three can only sit on the side and gnaw on the dry jerky.
They naturally have a lot of Bigu Dan on their bodies, but Bigu Dan can't give them the nutrients they need to grow.
Even if it is the eldest monarch among the three of them, although he is already weak, his body is also growing.
The Qi training period has another name, the extradition period.
During the extradition period, the monk's flesh, bones, and meridians will undergo secondary development, adjusting them to the most suitable physique for cultivating immortals.
The shorter the adjustment time, the more beneficial it is to polish the foundation building period.
Only a small world like the Yunlu Small Realm is counted from the Qi cultivation period, while the Middle Thousand Realms all start from the foundation building period.
After the Eight Immortals Mansion entered the night, the four of them were divided into two groups to keep vigil.
Xu Miaomiao and Jun sealed the first half of the night, and in the second half of the night, the senior An carried out the vigil, and the dawn was weak, so they had a good night's rest.
During the vigil, Jun Feng always played haha intentionally or unintentionally, and the whole person was sleepy.
Xu Miaomiao asked him to rest, Jun Feng's experience today is comparable to a script, and he is really a good hand at dragging his feet when he is injured.
Jun Feng hugged his fists to express his gratitude, and went over to rest.
The calloon on Xu Miaomiao's shoulder spoke at this time.
"Your new acquaintance is a premature child." The cocoon said unhurriedly, the streamer in his eyes was as usual.
Xu Miao looked at the cocoon in surprise, and the cocoon also tilted her head to look at her.
Looking at each other, Xu Miaomiao suddenly had a memory of where he had seen it.
"You've got the answers you're looking for." With that, the cocoon dispersed.
……
"Wake up." The cocoon snapped and flicked its tail, and Xu Miaomiao opened her sleepy eyes.
"Hmm, what just happened?" Xu Miaomiao shook her head repeatedly, and the words of the calloon in her dream still echoed in her ears.
"Didn't you say that if you're sleepy, I'm going to wake you up?" The calloon sat on her shoulder, shaking her little feet happily.
Consciousness returned, and a cold sweat broke out.
She did say the same thing to Cocoon before the vigil, so what was it just now......
