Lu Yang came to the stall selling roasted cakes again.

The one who sells baked cakes is a senior sister, who makes noodles, wakes up noodles, kneades noodles, and falls to form, and I don't know how long I have been practicing.

The senior sister kneaded the dough into one small ball after another, hands, wrists, arms, torso...... With full body pressure, knead the dough into a pie shape.

There seems to be a reason for the movement, which seems to be not just a simple kneading dough, but also a way to exercise body coordination.

The senior sister placed the dough blank on the forging table, and struck the sledgehammer violently, making a loud clattering sound, sparks splashed everywhere, and fell to the ground to burn small holes.

The cake blank is quenched, the cold water boils instantly, and it bubbles, and soon a baked cake is ready.

Lu Yang felt that it was an eye-opener, Bai Lianfeng really had an idea, and the combination of food and refining was seamless.

"Let's have a baked cake."

The things in the cafeteria are really cheap, Lu Yang has seen a lot of good things here, if it weren't for the limited contribution points, I really want to buy them all.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Lu Yang met the two at the mountain gate of the Wendao Sect as agreed.

"I'll be waiting for you." Meng Jingzhou waved his hand when he saw Lu Yang, and there was a carriage parked behind him, which was the one that pulled them to ask the Dao Sect in the first place, and the old horse was still the old horse.

The only difference is that the third person has changed from the senior sister Yunzhi to a brute bone.

He studied hard, and he was also studying the kung fu of the others, and the wide Confucian robe enveloped his muscles, and he really looked like a tall Confucian student.

"No need to take a flying boat?" Lu Yang is ready to take the flying boat, although it is convenient for him to shrink the ground into inches, but after all, it is not as fast as the flying boat.

He temporarily gave up learning to shrink the ground into inches and specialized in shrinking the ground and inches.

Meng Jingzhou patted the carriage and said proudly: "My carriage is a treasure, it contains a space formation, we sit in it and feel that the carriage is moving slowly, but in fact, it is as fast as a flying boat in the eyes of outsiders." ”

Thinking about it, the Meng family is far away in the imperial city, and Meng Jingzhou relied on a carriage to go from the Meng family to the Daoist Sect, it is impossible for the old horse to come step by step, and he will not be able to go to the Daoist Sect for a year.

The carriage used the formation on the way to the Dao Sect, and it flew up so fast that it closed the formation and slowed down when it got close to the Dao Dao Sect, as a way to show respect for the Dao Dao Sect.

What Lu Yang saw before was the carriage that had slowed down.

The three of them got into the carriage, and the inside of the carriage was still as big as ever, and it was only now that Lu Yang understood what the value of this carriage was.

"Speaking of which, where are we going? What is the mission? ”

"Hey, I didn't tell you? Let's go to a place called Qinghuai County, and let Brother Mangu tell you specifically, after all, it is the task he found. ”

Mangu put a bookmark in the crack of the book, closed the book, and spoke slowly.

"I heard about this from the passengers of the flying ship when I was out on a mission, he was a merchant leader who knew many things that mortals did not know, and he told me a story that was passed down among their merchants, and he had some credibility."

"In the middle of Qinghuai County and Yanjiang County, there is a large area of mountains, undulating, and if merchants want to cross this mountain, they must be led by local hunters."

"A terrifying presence has appeared in the mountains and forests, forcing the hunters to leave the mountains and forests on which they depend......"

……

When night falls, the branches of the trees block the moonlight, the thunder is deafening, the rain pours down, and the ground is so muddy that there is nowhere to put your feet.

Seven or eight people were tied with ropes around their waists, connected together, to prevent someone from slipping and slipping down the mountain and accidentally losing it.

There was a loud rain all around, and even if someone fell down and shouted, it would be difficult to hear the movement.

They were dressed in robes, carried trekking poles, and carried baskets on their backs, and they took every step carefully, for fear of stepping on a deep pit.

The icy raindrops made them unkempt, and when they looked up, the dense rain curtain blocked their view, and they could only follow the old hunter at the front.

"Be careful of your step, the mountain road is very slippery on rainy days!"

"Don't stop when you're tired, work harder, it's almost here, stop now, it's hard to get up and hurry!"

"I—I really can't...... Save me! I fell! ”

Someone slipped under his feet, and his body had nowhere to borrow his strength, and he slid towards the cliff on the side of the mountain road.

The merchants sensed the force coming from the end of the rope and realized that someone had been left behind, so they immediately stopped and hurriedly pulled people.

"Ah Yue, you tighten the rope, let's work together!"

"I'm bored." Ah Yue was suspended on the cliff, with a thick hemp rope tied around his waist to keep him from falling.

He was now tired and hungry, and he couldn't exert any strength, and it was difficult for him to climb up the rope.

The old Orion is experienced, and while calmly commanding everyone, he personally pulls people.

"Hold on to the tree, don't let the seven of us slide down!"

"The rest of the people wrapped the rope around their wrists, I shouted one, two, three, and everyone pulled hard!"

"One-two-three, pull!"

"One-two-three, pull!"

After a lot of effort, everyone finally pulled Ah Yue up, and the already tired people were so tired that they couldn't even stand on their feet.

The old hunter did not relax, and nervously checked Ah Yue's physical condition: "Ah Yue, how did you slide down, did you feel that someone pushed you?" ”

Ah Yue shook his head blankly, not understanding why the old hunter asked like this, of course he slipped down by himself, could anyone still harm him?

"Old Sun, what do you mean by that?" Qi Wu asked, he was the leader of the merchants, and he faintly sensed the problem from the old Orion's question.

The old hunter shook his head and pointed to the ruined temple in front of him: "Hurry up first, and wait until you get to the mountain temple." ”

The heavy rain was pouring down, not the environment for talking about things, Qi Wu nodded, said a few words of encouragement, and asked everyone to hurry to the mountain temple to take shelter from the rain.

When everyone arrived at the mountain temple, they didn't care about the image, took off their clothes, sat on the ground, gasped for breath, and then hurriedly checked whether the things in the basket were damaged.

"It's okay, it's okay, fortunately, it's wrapped in a tarpaulin in advance, or Brother Qi is prescient."

The temple is not very good, but it is spacious, with three old dusty statues of the mountain gods in the center, surrounded by dirt and dung, the tablets with the names of the mountain gods are missing, the tributes were eaten by wild beasts not long ago, the two gates are missing, the windows are broken, and the cold wind is whirring.

The people didn't care very much, for them, it was a good place to shelter from the rain.

Qi Wu took out some goods from the basket as a tribute and paid tribute to the three mountain gods, thanking them for lending the mountain temple to them to shelter from the rain.

The three mountain gods are clay sculptures, the skills are not exquisite, but the difference can also be seen, the mountain god in the middle, holding a gentleman's sword, a righteous face, the mountain gods on both sides are a scholar and a martial artist, one is wearing a Confucian robe and holding a book, in the literary position, and one has a pure yang righteousness, in the martial position, the hierarchy is clear, and orderly.

"The mountain god blesses us with a safe journey."

Qi Wu always felt that the three mountain gods were very spiritual, as if they were alive.
