"A long time ago, Yanqi Lake was called Crocodile Water. There are many strange beasts here, and there is a big crocodile in the lake, which changes out every fifteen to harm people.

Later, a disciple of the old man of the Heavenly Sword killed this predator, and set up a large array to remove all the miasma here, and the crocodile water became what it is now. Later, wild geese often inhabit here, so it is called Yanqi Lake. Zhou Tong told several juniors about the legend of Yanqi Lake.

They have come to the edge of Yanqi Lake. I saw that the surface of the lake was sparkling, the aquatic plants in the lake were luxuriant, and there were waterfowl flying in the water from time to time, which was a beautiful scenery in the world.

"There are three unique aspects of this Yanqi Lake, one is clear, the second is cold, and the third is fragrant. But now it seems that it is no longer the prosperity of the past. Zhou Tong said with a little regret.

When Tianwu Sect was here, Yanqi Lake was a famous scene of Tianwu Sect.

The water of Yanqi Lake flows out of an underground dark river under the Broken Sword Mountain Range, which is cold all year round, but never frozen, and there is a strange aquatic plant growing in the underground river, and the aquatic grass floats into Yanqi Lake with the river, which can exude a faint fragrance, and the water of Yanqi Lake is crystal clear, so it forms the three uniques of "clear", "cold" and "fragrant".

It's a pity that since Tianwu Sect moved away from here, due to the change of terrain here, the "cold" and "fragrant" are no longer there.

But despite this, the scenery of Yanqi Lake is still beautiful, this person is in the west, a remnant sun is spread on the water, everyone is fascinated by this scenery for a while.

"In such a beautiful place, is there still a monster like the Black Water Python?" Wu Dashun muttered.

"In fact, the more abundant the aura and the more beautiful the scenery, the more likely it is to appear strange beasts. This black water snake is at the bottom of the lake, and we have to find a way to lure it out. Zhou Tong said.

However, the area of Yanqi Lake is huge, with a radius of more than 100 li, and most of the places have reeds, so it is difficult to discern the direction after entering Yanqi Lake.

Several people walked around the shore of Yanqi Lake, trying to find a place with a wide view and then enter the water to check.

As soon as he walked for a while, he saw a few figures in front of him, and a few people walked over, and it turned out that they were also disciples of Tianwu Sect.

There were two teams of people, namely Li Junqun of Dangyan Hall and Qin Chong of Qingle Hall.

"Isn't this Senior Brother Zhou? Why, you are also here to do tasks?" Qin Zhong of Qingle Hall had a good relationship with Zhou Tong, and stepped forward to greet him warmly.

Zhou Tong also walked over and introduced a few junior disciples to the disciples of Qingle Hall.

Li Junqun of the Dangyan Hall also said coldly: "I don't know what Senior Brother Zhou is doing here, don't you know that this is where the former site of the Dangyan Hall is?"

This Yanqi Lake used to be the former site of the Dangyan Hall, and it was Ni Yue, the ancestor of the Dangyan Hall, who killed the predator back then!

Wu Dawei said: "This is the former site of the Tianwu Sect, and our disciples of the Tianwu Sect naturally came. If you think we're bothered here, you can also go to our Hanging Pavilion to have fun!"

"That's what I mean, I heard that there is a copy of "Heavenly Star Falling Sky Sword" in the Hanging Pavilion, and I really want to borrow it. Li Junqun said provocatively, his eyes kept staring at Ma Xie.

Ma Xie knew that this person was aimed at himself, and the previous matter would definitely be decided here, so he arched his hand and said, "Then junior brother, I will be waiting for senior brother in the Hanging Pavilion!"

Qin Chong saw that several people didn't speak well, so he hurriedly said: "They are all brothers of the same sect, why bother! Our mission this time is all related to Yanqi Lake, I hope everyone will work together to get through this pass!"

Only then did they stop arguing and communicate with each other.

The task of Qin Chong and his entourage is to find the underground river of Yanqi Lake, which has been blocked by rocks and formed a cave, and the task of Qin Chong and the others is to find a way to remove the rock and let the dark river flow back into Yanqi Lake.

Li Junqun's solo mission is to explore the former site of the Dangyan Hall and find a weapon left by the ancestor of the Dangyan Hall, the "Cold Moon Goose Feather Knife".

Everyone talked about their tasks and progress, and hoped that they could cooperate with each other.

Who knew that Li Junqun didn't approve of such a thing, he was just a solo mission, and he had already obtained a map of the old site of the Dangyan Hall before he came, and he didn't need help from others.

"If you want my map, you can, no one will take a thousand points in exchange, or reward half of your mission," Li Junqun said.

"You're too dark, aren't you! If it weren't for this mission, you might not have accumulated it in two years!" Wu Dawei said.

Li Junqun spread out his hands and ignored him.

But Qin Chong and Zhou Tong were calculating in their hearts at the moment, they knew that if they had a map of Yanqi Lake, the chances of success of this mission would increase by at least thirty percent, especially if they didn't have an underwater map of Yanqi Lake, if they searched like this, I am afraid they would not be able to search for a month.

Qin Zhong glanced at Zhou Tong and made a look, Zhou Tong understood and took the team away.

"Let's explore it ourselves!" Zhou Tong said.

Ma Xie volunteered to go into the lake to explore, after all, he knew that this Li Junqun's lion opening his mouth had a lot to do with him.

Who knows that Zhou Tong waved his hand and said: "Hey, what does it have to do with you, this surnamed Li is deliberately hoarding Juqi here, wanting to buy that broken map at a high price." But you don't have to worry, Lao Qin has his own way. ”

It turned out that Qin Chong and Zhou Tong had known each other for a long time, and Qin Chong asked Zhou Tong to leave, buy the map by himself, and then the two of them would each give 500 points.

After a while, Qin Chong walked over with his teammates, but his face was bitter, and he didn't look any happy.

"Old Qin, didn't he sell you a map?" Zhou Tong asked impatiently.

Qin Zhong shook his head: "It's sold, it's very complete, both above and below the water." ”

"It's really great! With the map, it's much easier for us to find the Black Water Python!" Zhou Tong said happily.

Qin Zhong looked at him resentfully and said, "Do you want a copy of three thousand points?"

"What? three thousand?" Zhou Tong was dumbfounded.

Then Li Junqun is not a fool, how could he not know that the relationship between Zhou and Qin will definitely share the same map, so when he heard that Qin wanted to buy it, he immediately put the price up to three thousand.

Qin Chong had no choice, he had to get the map, his task was to find the underground river that had been cut off, if there was no map, this Yanqi Lake was so big, the four of them alone would not be able to find it for a year.

Zhou Tong said embarrassedly: "Brother Qin, I'm really sorry, so let's do it! I'll give 1,700 points, so it's okay." ”

Although Qin Chong was distressed, he was not a person who cared about anything, he said: "Am I that kind of person? One thousand and a half, let's go back and talk about it! That surname Li is really not a thing, and his fellow disciples and brothers are so ruthless." ”

"Not everyone is a senior brother, you! Our Tianwu Sect is so big, in fact, how many people can really call it a senior brother?" Zhou Tong said with feeling.

After chatting for a while, they began to take out the map and study.

This map was given to him by Li Junqun's master, and it shows in detail the distribution of Yanqi Lake, the water level of each place, and the underwater topography.

In the southeast of the lake, there is a marker that says "Dark River".

"I guess that's where I'm looking. Qin Zhong said.

Zhou Tong nodded, "Since we met together, let's go to your mission point first, anyway, we have to find the Black Water Python one by one." ”

Qin Zhong agreed, he naturally would not refuse Zhou Tong's kindness.

The group set off to the southeast of the lake.

The scene here was very different from Fang Cai, there was a faint smell of blood in the air, the temperature was gradually dropping, and most of the surrounding trees were dead, making it look eerie.

"How do I feel......" Ma Xie just wanted to say that he felt that the Ghost Bat King or the Black Water Python was in this area, and a big hand quickly covered his mouth.

"My little junior brother, don't be blind...... Senior brother's injury is not good!" Wu Da said with palpitations.

Ma Xie had no choice but to keep silent, but his words still made everyone more vigilant, it stands to reason that this place is not more than a hundred miles away from the place where Fang Cai got along, but there must be a reason for such a big difference.

Several people found a suitable place to enter the water and prepared to dive in to see what was going on below.

Ma Xie and one of Qin Chong's junior disciples, Chen Yu, went down first, and they each used a water avoidance talisman that allowed them to breathe freely in the water for half an hour.

"Be careful, if you find something abnormal, come up immediately!" Qin Chong and Zhou Tong both explained to their junior brothers.

After the two were ready, they quietly dived into the water.
