Nanyang Mountain, located in the northeast of Jialing River in Baishuiguan, the mountain is not high, there is a big pond on the top, the name is Laolong Pond.

Legend has it that more than 100 years ago, there was a strange treasure outside the sky such as a dragon falling to the ground, falling on this mountain, smashing out a huge pit, leading the mountain spring to gush out, turning into a pond water, so it got its name.

Of course, no matter what treasures landed at the beginning, they must be gone now.

The two places are not far apart, Lu Jing and Yan Ling went all the way north, set off at noon, and arrived at the foot of Nanyang Mountain in the afternoon.

"This is it."

Yan Ling looked up at the top of the mountain and said seriously: "Half a month ago, when my Yan family caravan crossed the river, I accidentally found that there was a hidden cave next to the old dragon pond of this mountain, the entrance of the cave was sealed, and there was an enchantment inside. My men let the toad fire burn away before they could pick the flowers, and only two of the ten-man team escaped......"

The fire toad, the body is as huge as a grinding plate, the whole body is red, it is not moving like a mountain when it is quiet, and it erupts when it is angry, which is very powerful.

Lu Jing frowned and said, "Will there be fraud?" ”

Yan Ling thought carefully: "I came here to check later, the cave door is covered with moss, the ancient road is overgrown with weeds, it is not like there is a master, and the medicine garden is also overgrown with weeds, robbing a lot of spiritual plants. Even if there was a master, no one has taken care of it for a few years, otherwise it would be a tyrannical thing. ”

"Hmm."

Lu nodded and said, "Then go in and have a look." ”

He took out the [Gu Refining Spirit Altar] and handed it to Yan Ling: "Take it." ”

Yan Ling didn't answer, tilted her head, and said with a strange smile: "Lord Sacrificial Wine is not worried about me setting up an ambush in the mountains?" What if they deliberately lured you here and waited for an opportunity to poison you? After all, this girl's reputation is very difficult to hear......"

Lu Jingdao: "In the Wind Yin Pavilion, I gave you seven chances, and I deliberately showed five flaws along the way, but you didn't do anything, I really want to see what ambush can be in the cave." ”

With that, he strode forward.

Yan Ling held the Gu altar with a strange expression, and was stunned for a while before following.

The two went up the mountain, looked back, far away, in front of the Baishui Pass under the mountain, the two armies faced each other, the clouds and mist were filled, and the sound of fighting faintly came.

Lu Jing was fascinated.

Yan Ling said: "Baishui Pass is the first pass in northern Sichuan, the throat of Yizhou, the city wall, the city gate material is extraordinary, each wall tile is engraved with a formation pattern, in the past Gongsun Shu called the emperor in Shu, ordered 10,000 organ divisions and 3,000 Fu array divisions to rebuild the three passes of Sichuan and Shu, so that each of the three passes is integrated and invulnerable, with this three passes to occupy Bashu for 13 years, it is not trivial! Even if Huang Zhong and Wei Yan have the courage of ten thousand people, it is not easy to break through this pass, not to mention that Chengdu will inevitably send troops to support when they hear the news. ”

Lu Jing smiled and turned his head to look at her: "Miss Yan is knowledgeable, but Liu Bei is not so easy to beat, the golden signboard of Uncle Liu Huang of the Han Dynasty, I don't know how many strange people in the mountains and fields will help." ”

Didn't you see that in the romance, even the half-immortal Zuo Ci wanted to kill Cao Cao and force him to give way to Liu Bei?

No matter how difficult it is, there are many moles.

Lu Jing glanced at Yan Ling, oh yes, there is also Grandpa Ling...... At the beginning, the decapitated general swore not to surrender, and then he became the leading party......

Lu Jing no longer looked down, and went straight to the old dragon pond on the top of the mountain.

The water of the pond is as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the clear sky, and it is as beautiful as a picture.

Yan Ling twisted the mechanism on one side of the mountain wall, and a stone gate covered with moss slowly opened, revealing a path.

A cold wind poured out.

Yan Ling advanced, followed by Lu Jing.

The cave is overgrown with weeds and lush, among which there are occasionally a few exotic flowers and plants, which are colorful.

Yan Ling had been here a long time ago, and her pace was fast, and she went straight to the hinterland.

Lu Jing followed closely behind her, and suddenly, looking ahead, his face changed slightly, and he immediately performed the light skill "Thunder Wind Walking", and his body turned into electric light and disappeared without a trace!

Yan Ling had already entered the entrance of the hinterland at this time, there was a huge karst cave in front of him, surrounded by strange rocks, lined up in formation, faintly revealing a murderous aura, the whole was the same as the cave under the Wujiabao of Lao Qianshan, but it was a little messy, there were not many changes, and the power was not enough, Yan Ling turned around, and was just about to ask Lu Jing to follow carefully, beware of the maze, but he saw that there was no one behind him.

Yan Ling was taken aback, thought about it carefully, and felt strange again, this Gu altar had been delivered to her hands, why did she give up halfway?

Could it be that you are worried that there will be fraud in the array, so you don't want to enter?

Then just say no, why say goodbye?

Even if you only look at the face of the Gu altar, it's a big deal to go in and bring out the flowers and fire toads yourself......

"Forget it, if you don't want to enter, you won't enter, the Gu altar is in hand, I'll go in and get it."

Yan Ling only felt that Lu Jing was weird, and besides, it was not once or twice that he was wronged and ill-intentioned, Yan Ling was used to it, and thought that Lu Jing was a little special, but now it is the same.

She is a trustworthy person, and she has to do what she promises, whether Lu Jing is around or not, flowers and toads will always be handed over to him.

So, Yan Ling carefully took out the Gu altar, opened the seal, pressed the altar body with his hand, and began to infuse the true qi.

The rune arrays on the surface of the Gu altar were activated one after another, turning into illusory runes suspended around, and the strange medicine at the bottom of the altar attacked, and a strange fragrance began to waft out.

This aroma is harmless to humans, but it has a fatal attraction to poisonous insects!

No matter how big and fierce the fire toad is, it is still a genus of the five poisons, this Gu altar is heavenly to restrain it, as long as it is lured here, it will be intoxicated to suck the aroma, Yan Ling can take the opportunity to enter the central medicine garden of the array, first take the green leaf begonia flowers, and then catch the fire toad alive and take it out of the cave.

The aroma wafted and gradually spread into the array......

Wail!

Wail!

Suddenly, there were two deafening toad chirps.

Immediately after that, the earth trembled, and the huge fire toad jumped and pounced towards the Gu altar!

Its body is huge, burly and powerful, and it can jump out of more than ten zhang in one jump!

I saw a red light flickering, and in a blink of an eye, I came to the entrance.

"Sure enough!"

Yan Ling's heart was excited, seeing that the toad was killed, he immediately rushed into the formation from the other direction, and performed the medical sect's light skill "Cloud Step", his body flickered, and he rushed out of the maze at an extremely fast speed and came to the central medicine garden.

The moment he came out of the formation, he swept his eyes and saw that about half an acre of medicine garden was planted with all kinds of elixirs.

They come in a variety of colors and shapes, and from a distance, they look like a colorful carpet in a cave.

There are also dozens of colorful swallowtail butterflies fluttering in the meantime, and the ancient cave is quiet and beautiful.

Yan Ling's medical skills are superb, and he can see at a glance that most of the grades of this all-in-the-earth elixir are around six or seven grades, which are already very precious, not to mention that there are five grades [Biye Begonia Flower] that can improve his skills and can not be invaded by a hundred poisons.

The value of this medicine garden is not small, but it is a pity that no one repairs it, so that many weeds grow in the medicine garden, and a lot of land is robbed, otherwise the medicinal properties will inevitably go to a higher level.

Yan Ling felt pity in her heart, and rushed to the edge of the medicine garden quickly, just about to take flowers, when a cold voice came into her ears.

"If you don't tell you, you steal, and if you don't ask, you're a thief!"

Behind the rocks opposite, came a burly man, dressed in tattered clothes, with short hair, a scruffy beard, and a shackled iron shackle on his limbs and ankles, and a four-edged gold wedge across his waist.

The golden mace was nearly four feet long, which was very different from the ordinary double mace, and it was a single-wielding weapon, which could not be used by people who were not equipped with great power.

The strong man looked at Yan Ling, smiled slightly, and showed a fierce light in his eyes: "Miss Yan, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" ”

Refining God Realm!

Yan Ling was taken aback, hurriedly pulled out the short sword at his waist, put on a defensive posture, and said in a cold voice: "The ...... of the punishment of the tongs" (髡pliers, a punishment, refers to shaving off the hair and beard and putting on the torture instruments. ）

The body is skinned, and the parents who receive it dare not destroy it, and the beginning of filial piety is also.

Since the advent of the Confucian "Book of Filial Piety", since the imperial court ruled the people with the three articles of "virtue", "loyalty" and "filial piety", punishments such as destroying the body and cutting off the hair were regarded as great insults!

Originally, this was also commonplace, but this tortured person was in the realm of refining gods, and the shackles on his body were just decorations, deliberately showing to the public, either insulting himself or holding grudges.

Yan Ling said: "Who are you?" ”

The man sneered, "Yizhou prisoner." Miss Yan doesn't know me, General Yan should know. My name is Peng Yi! ”

Yan Ling's mind flashed with inspiration, and he suddenly said: "It turned out to be you, the secretary of the state pastor's derogatory reprimand!" ”

Peng Yi, whose name is Yongnian, was originally a small scribe beside Liu Zhang, but later because of the slander of the people around him, he was falsely accused of stealing strange treasures, and was tortured by Liu Zhang with tongs and sent to work as a coolie in remote mountainous areas.

Unexpectedly, he had another chance, and he actually worshipped strangers as teachers in the mountains, learned miraculous skills, obtained strange treasures, and made great progress in martial arts, and turned to assassinate Liu Zhang to avenge the humiliation.

But how can he compare himself with the soldiers around Liu Zhang, Peng Yi failed to assassinate without accident, suffered heavy losses, and then disappeared.

This matter was in an uproar back then, and Yan Ling had also heard about it, but she didn't expect to see him here, and listening to his voice, it seemed that this was still his place......

"Hehe......"

Peng Yipi said with a smile: "It's rare, Miss Yan actually knows me...... Then you should know that Liu Zhang listened to slanderous and false accusations, and let me be punished by tongs and demoted to a prisoner, such a great shame, I will destroy his family and destroy his city, in order to vent the hatred in my heart! ”

Peng Yi's face was full of murderous anger.

Yan Ling was puzzled, what does this have to do with me? Why are you waiting for me?

Peng Yi said coldly: "No one in Shu knows, Miss Yan is the pearl of General Yan's palm, as long as you are captured and dedicated to Uncle Liuhuang, Yan Yan will inevitably surrender, and the Jingzhou army can directly take Ba County, go all the way north, join forces with Uncle Huang to take Chengdu, capture Liu Zhang, and decide Xichuan in one fell swoop!" With such a big gift, Uncle Liu Huang will definitely be kind, he can take revenge, and he can make steady progress, Peng, why not? ”

Yan Ling's face instantly turned cold.

I see......

It seems that the previous two inspections alarmed this person, and let him find out the details of the caravan, so he will wait here for the rabbit.

Peng Yi smiled instead, took off the gold wedge behind his waist, and his momentum skyrocketed: "My original intention was to come back to get the medicine and dedicate it to Uncle Huang, so that I could surrender to Cheng, but I didn't expect that there would be an unexpected joy...... Miss Yan, it's really a good time for you to come......"

When the words fell, Peng Yiru came out of the gate and killed Yan Ling: "Surrender obediently!" ”

"You're delusional!"

Yan Ling scolded angrily, shook his hand and threw out the [Moon Hidden Needle] on his wrist, and the battle directly entered the climax.
