Chapter 183: One on the ground, one underground
The Yunshan Lin family, one of the largest families in the Northland, has industries all over the Northland, especially famous for casting.
In Ji Que's understanding, this is similar to the existence of the largest arms dealer in the Northland.
It can be said that the more turbulent the Northland, the more chivalrous, dart games, mountain bandits, and rebels, the more profitable it becomes.
To be able to do this kind of business for two hundred years, and to do it better and better, the Yunshan Lin family's heritage is not deep, purely in terms of power, the Yunxue Sect and the Yunshan Lin family can only be regarded as a junior brother.
Naturally, such a family will not be short of money, and it is not strange to have any rare things, so when Lin Xiangzhi said that the Lin family had this thing, no one questioned it.
Lin Xiangzhi had seen maggot dragon grass, and it was not a long time ago, when she had not yet gone to Qixiaguan, because she was curious to see this grass, and felt disgusted, when his father told her something about maggot dragon grass, he sent someone to move his cave.
Yes, many high-level officials of the Yunshan Lin family have their own cave mansions, because they are not only doing business, but also monks, and the exercises they practice are also varied.
In short, in addition to the most basic Lin family exercises, the Lin family has also collected a large number of exercises and cheats over the years for future generations to learn.
Therefore, there are cultivators, Buddhas, and soldiers in the Lin family
The Yunshan Lin family can prosper for a long time, and it is inseparable from this "sea of rivers".
Ji Que felt that this was the heyday of the Murong Fu family, with many family members, many talents, and ever-changing, and attached to the big tree of the family, this tree would naturally not fall easily.
According to Lin Xiangzhi, her father's cave is in the depths of Yunshan, and many of her uncles' caves are also in the depths of the mountain.
In short, many of these caves were quite mysterious, even if she had only been in one or two when she was quite young.
And her father's cave would not let her enter easily, but she probably knew where it was, and she had seen it from afar once.
Since it is possible that the things are there, Ji Que is naturally ready to go.
In view of the fact that Lin Xiangzhi's current identity is very delicate, and her father's situation is also very delicate now, and even seems a little dangerous, they decided to steal it.
Of course, when the daughter takes her father's things, she can only say that she uses them first, anyway, her father is fake, there is nothing wrong with her "filial piety", and she even accepted what Ji Que said, and she made a little more money when she encountered it.
In short, those things stay in the Lin family, it is better to give them to Ji Que.
After hearing that Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi wanted Yunshan to steal things, Bai Lu hurriedly said, "I want to go too." ”
Ji Que said: "If you don't go home, won't your mother clean you up?" If she knew I was fooling around with you, my god."
After all, during this time, Bai Lu went home obediently every night.
He remembered Madame Bai's verbose appearance, and couldn't help but be afraid for a while, much more afraid than seeing ghosts or the like.
Bai Lu said: "Brother Ji, don't worry, I told my mother directly that I went back to the sect, and she didn't know." ”
Looking at the look in her eyes, not to mention Ji Shortage, Lin Xiangzhi was a little unbearable.
Lin Xiangori tried: "It's dangerous over there. ”
Bai Lu said seriously: "It's the danger that I'm going to go, the skills that the three of us practice together, I must be a little more powerful, right?" ”
In the end, after persuading each other for a while, Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi still brought Bai Lu.
Because she looks so pitiful, I don't know if she's pretending.
Yunshan is located in the middle of the Northland, ten days away from Tianren City.
Because he wanted to steal something, Ji Que didn't immediately turn on the comprehension accumulation mode.
Usually he goes out to open this mode, which is to increase his understanding and challenge himself and his teammates, but this time he goes out differently, he wants to be safe.
Chen Laoshi's injury is best healed, not only because of the friendship between the two parties, but also because there is a healthy Chen Laoshi, and he has a little more confidence.
There is a saying - "I have someone behind me!" ”。
So in the past ten days, there have been no accidents, except for a group of young people who were jealous of Ji Que and eloped with his beautiful cousin and sister-in-law to yin him, but he poked his eyes, and there were no accidents.
At that time, the group of young rangers covered their eyes, and while crying, they confessed: "You said that you eloped with a beautiful cousin, we can understand, you eloped with a beautiful sister-in-law, we thought you had a good time at most, but you eloped with your cousin and sister-in-law, and we couldn't hold back for a while." ”
"Hero, spare your life!"
After experiencing this episode, the three of them came to the Yunshan area smoothly.
Standing at the foot of Yunshan Mountain, I saw that this mountain range was full of cypress trees, and the winding path was secluded.
Yunshan, a mountain range located in the north, has a reputation of "Yunshan is secluded in the world" since ancient times.
The Lin family is in this mountain range.
Although the Lin family is large, it is quite small compared to the vast mountains.
Of course, before the Lin family came to this cloud mountain to take root, there were already many legends of the blessed land in this mountain range, and it is said that the caves of many ancestors of the Lin family were rebuilt by the caves of some ancient qi refiners.
When approaching Yunshan, Lin Xiangori had already turned into a cat shape.
Because this is already the Lin family's sphere of influence, her appearance can easily attract the attention of the Lin family.
The Lin family is very large, and there are thousands of people with foreign surnames, plus these people drag their families with their families, and the Lin family town at the foot of the mountain can be said to be a small town.
The two of them and the cat quickly walked through the town with many buildings and headed up the hill.
The mountain road is very difficult to walk, especially in the early morning with rain and dew, which is relatively slippery, but this is not a problem for Ji Que and Bailu.
Ji Que walks, never said that it is slippery, maybe slippery can make him walk more silky.
In addition to the Lin family town under the mountain, the scale of the Lin family house on the mountain is also not small.
It is located between the mountains and forests, with scattered pavilions and pavilions, which looks very layered.
It's not so much a house as a mountain town built on a hillside.
Ji Que looked at this scene and couldn't help but say, "Kaori, is your family so rich?" ”
Lin Xiangzhi said lightly: "That's it." ”
Ji Que began to understand why this cat didn't pay much attention to the silver ticket, it was because he had seen the sea, who would feel how turbulent the stream was.
Such a lady does your laundry and cooks, thinking about it, he is a little excited.
"I said, kill your fake father, can you take some of the family property back?" Ji Que said excitedly.
"Then you have to think about whether you can deal with seven or eight natal realms by yourself. In short, my fake father is dead, and at least these seven natal realms will come to you. Lin Xiangzhi replied.
"Then let's forget it first." Ji Que said very seriously.
This Lin family's heritage is really much stronger than that of the Yunxue Sect.
According to Lin Xiangzhi, the Lin family's mansion is not easy to enter, but his father's cave is fortunately not in it, and they can go around.
Because they had to go around, there were almost no roads where they walked, and sometimes the cliffs they encountered were almost vertical and smooth as a mirror.
However, it is nothing for Ji Que, who is good at running and swimming, and sometimes when he encounters a particularly difficult road, he directly glues Bai Lu into wings and takes it to climb quickly.
Bai Lu was very curious about all this, because she was really an otaku girl, and she had barely been to many places except for Tianren City and Yunxue Sect.
At this time, Ji Que was climbing on a cliff with a person and a cat, and from here, the sea of clouds was rolling with the mountain wind, like a fairyland.
But the more exciting feeling is because this is on the top of a thousand zhang cliff, her whole body is hanging outside and swaying gently, as long as one falls, the bones are estimated to be broken into slag.
Several times Ji Que's feet stepped directly on the moss on the cliff, and she felt that her heart was about to jump out of her throat, and she couldn't help but want to remind her.
But whether there is moss or not, Ji Que has always been stable.
Soon, the cliff came to an end.
When Bai Lu was put down by Ji Que, he only felt that the tip of his nose was full of sweat.
It's fun and exciting.
At the end of the mountain road is a cliff, at least a few hundred zhang away from the opposite peak.
Across the two mountains is an iron cable, and a wooden cage hanging from under the iron cable.
Lin Xiangori said: "If you want to go to that cave, you have to slide through here. ”
It's the first time I've seen this kind of thing, and I just think it's a little new.
But honestly, he didn't want to sit on it.
Because the chains look a little old, if something goes wrong, I'm afraid there won't be even bones left.
Ji Que also felt the same way, but he felt that as long as his left foot stepped on his right foot, although he would not fly, he would not fall to death.
So he motioned to Lin Kaori to hurry.
So the two of them and a cat stood in the wooden cage, pulled the mechanism, and slowly drifted towards another mountain.
Soon, the wooden cage sank into the mountain mist.
Overhead, there was the clatter of the mechanism stirring, and the cage kept moving forward against the sloping slope.
It's just that when the wind blows, it's a little shaky.
At this time, even if Ji Que looked at the gap in the cage under his feet, he felt a sense of dizziness.
The wooden cage was walking among the clouds, and suddenly there was a bump, which frightened Bai Lu and grabbed Ji Que's hand.
Soon, though, the cage was back to normal.
Ji Que soon found out that they were surrounded by fog.
The fog here was so thick that it was like cow's milk, and he could only see a distance of about a foot with his eyesight.
Time is ticking, and the wooden cage is always walking.
After a while, Ji Que felt that something was wrong and said, "How long have we been gone?" ”
Lin Xiangzhi shook his head and said, "I don't know, it feels like it's been a long time, and it wasn't so long last time." ”
Yes, the distance between the two peaks is about five hundred zhang, although this cage is not moving fast, but it is not slow, according to Ji Que's estimate, they should have arrived early.
Unfortunately not.
The wooden cage kept sliding, still nowhere to be seen.
Ji Que and the three of them stood inside, only to feel that they had entered a void.
There was fog all around, and the sky was eerily silent, except for the clatter of ropes overhead.
After about two pillars of incense, Bai Lu finally couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Why haven't we arrived yet?" ”
Ji Que frowned and wondered, "Is there a fork in the way of this chain?" ”
Yes, the time and distance are clearly not right now.
Lin Xiangzhi shook his head and said, "I only had one last time." ”
Ji Que analyzed: "Maybe someone added a chain halfway, and we strayed into that chain, so it took a long time." ”
This is the most reasonable explanation that Ji Que can think of, but how to think about it is unreliable.
They've been in this wooden cage for too long, and this cage hasn't stopped, and if there really is such a chain, how long does this chain have to be?
Ji Que looked up at the chain above his head, confirmed that it had not turned back, his expression was a little solemn, and said, "If the chain has a fork in the road, we don't go to your father's cave, where will we go?" ”
Lin Xiangzhi's face turned pale, and he shook his head and said, "I don't know, I don't come to this mountain often." ”
The snow-white fog, the wooden cage where Ji Que was located kept moving forward, it was like embarking on an endless road, which could never stop.
Ji Que has repeatedly confirmed that this chain has always been downward and has not bent.
So what does that mean?
The panic fermented between Bai Lu and Lin Xiangori, and after all, it still affected Ji Que's mood.
Because it's a really bad feeling.
You can't go up to the sky, you can't go down to the ground, the scenery around you is simply repeated, and you will even forget the time and your own existence.
If such a chain did not lead to Lin Kaori's father's cave, where would it lead?
Or will it never stop?
At this moment, Bai Lu suddenly said, "Listen, what sound?" ”
Ji Que listened intently and found that there was nothing except the clanging sound of the chains above.
But at this time, Bai Lu was very nervous and said, "Someone is talking in the fog." ”
She held Ji Que by the hand, eager to merge with Ji Que, and Lin Xiangzhi couldn't help but lean over.
Yes, how can anyone speak in such a fog?
But Bai Lu heard it, and there was more than one person.
The majestic fog, the chains that never reach the end, and the plausible whispers.
In such an environment, Rao is also a little nervous even if he has seen some of the world, let alone Bai Lu next to him.
She looked around with a frightened expression, very uneasy.
In order to alleviate Bai Lu's fear, Ji Que couldn't help asking, "If someone is talking, then what are they talking about?" ”
Bai Lu looked around, always trying to see something in the fog, but in the end she still didn't see anything.
She trembled and hugged Ji Que's arm tightly, and said in a trembling voice: "They say, 'Be careful of the fire candle'." ”
Many people's voices appeared in Bai Lu's ears, but they said the same thing.
"Beware of the candles? Dry weather? Ji Que wondered.
Bai Lu hurriedly said: "No, there is only 'be 'be careful of the fire candle', only 'be careful of the fire candle'." ”
At this time, Lin Xiangzhi spoke: "When I was a child, I heard the old people in my family say that they said that there is more than one Yunshan. ”
Ji Que asked, "What does it mean to have more than one?" ”
"Those old people said that there is not just one Yunshan, but two, one on the ground and one underground." Lin Xiangzhi said slowly.
As soon as these words came out, Ji Que had a creepy feeling.
Does this mean that they strayed into the cloud mountain underground?
Wouldn't it, it's so unlucky to turn off your understanding?
