Chapter 24: How Do Crabs Go?

Li Chuan decided to change the subject, and he asked, "How did the Frost Leaf Relic we are looking for expose his whereabouts?" ”

"It was a couple who reported to the government, and it was really a coincidence, the couple was born in the family of Zhong Ming Dingshi, there was an elder in the family, when he was young, he was bent on seeking Taoism, worshipping all the mountains and rivers, but he was never allowed to enter, so he read books and alchemy at home, except for often blowing up the house, but there was no trouble." Zhu Qingyun's tone was a little hurried, obviously she also wanted to skip the previous topic.

"As a result, more than 20 years ago, the Frost Leaf Gate accepted disciples, and that elder worshiped the Frost Leaf Gate, so it was okay," Zhu Qingyun sighed, "That's it, this elder, sighed that he had been asking for immortals for many years, and he didn't knock on the immortal gate until he was over the age of six, so for the sake of his descendants, he donated all his family wealth and asked for a pillar of plum yellow." ”

"He brought the children and grandchildren of the whole family together to taste the incense." Zhu Qingyun's voice lowered again, "After the incident, a thriving family disappeared all of a sudden. ”

"And how did this couple escape?" Li Chuan was a little curious.

Zhu Qingyun said: "They were delayed on the road, they came back a step late, and when they got home, the incense had burned out, and they only came to smell the last bit of fragrance." It was precisely because of this that they were able to discover the identity of the Frostleaf Relic. ”

She sighed, "There are only two of them left in the entire family, the title is gone to their generation, the money is gone, the husband and wife have summed it up, sold the remaining belongings, left the capital, and went elsewhere to make a living." Ten years ago, the man was infected with a serious disease, and he invited many doctors to see him, but to no avail, and finally he begged a miracle doctor, who gave them a pill, and after taking it, he got better. ”

The divine doctor said that this pill can only cure the surface, and if it wants to cure the root cause, it must be made into another medicine, so the couple took out all the money on their bodies and asked the divine doctor to dispense the medicine. A few days later, the medicine was ready, and when it was time to boil it, the couple found that the taste of the medicine was very similar to the fragrance of the burning plum yellow.

They felt that something was wrong, so the two of them summed it up, and at night, while the miracle doctor was asleep, they tied him up and sent him to the official. It's just that the miracle doctor was cunning, and on the way to the official, he found a way to get out. The matter was reported to Qin Tianjian, and the residue of the boiling medicine was also sent, and after comparison, some of the ingredients in the residue were indeed the same as plum yellow. ”

Then I was ordered by my master to investigate the matter. Traced all the way, found the remnants of the frost leaves, and fled to Xuanshui Mountain. Zhu Qingyun finally finished talking about the cause and effect.

Li Chuan asked: "Xuanshui Mountain is very big, if he wants to hide sincerely, it is estimated that he will not be able to find it in one or two days." ”

After Zhu Qingyun listened, he took out a palm-sized black jade compass, and the pointer pointed obliquely forward.

"I've locked his spot," she said. It's just that for some reason, I can't find him for the time being, which is why I want to ask you for help. ”

She explained: "The position pointed by the compass is close to the south bank of the small pinnacle of Xuanshui Mountain, and the last time I tracked it down, the compass showed that the target was within a hundred feet of me, and no matter which direction I went, it showed that I was getting farther and farther away from the target. There is only one reason for this, the place where he is is hidden. So I searched around and found these stones with special textures. ”

I see.

Li Chuan pondered for a moment

That frost leaf remnant doesn't sound like he has much strength, an ordinary couple can tie him up, if that's the case, then this mission is indeed not very dangerous.

Compared to that couple, he has two monsters that can be used and the personal disciple of Qin Tian Jian Zheng.

Wen Daochang didn't lie to him.

Quietly touch the mountain, find someone, and then sneak down quietly.

The key point is whether he can solve the mystery of the lines on the stones.

"If the pattern has nothing to do with the pattern scripture, I can't find his hiding place?" Li Chuan asked.

The clouds dispersed, and the moonlight once again illuminated Zhu Qingyun's face. She said, "That's just going to have to be hard......"

Halfway through speaking, she suddenly stood up and said, "Someone is coming, go." ”

Li Chuan and Gong Er and the third side quickly packed up their things.

I saw the blue and white electric light flying out from behind Zhu Qingyun, escorting the group, passing through the flying spring and entering the stone room.

Not a drop of water was touched.

Then, Li Chuan heard footsteps.

By the moonlight reflected on the stone wall, he looked out, and an old monkey walked into the rift with a small monkey.

The old monkey untied the wine bag on his waist, took a sip of wine, and sighed, "It's really unlucky, just put down the hammer, let it out to patrol, and there are more broken things." ”

I thought I would hug a thigh, but I couldn't eat a meal of fresh human flesh for a month, and I wasn't allowed to drink wine, so I might as well go back to my hometown and be happy! ”

The little monkey craned its neck and poked out.

The old monkey looked at him like this, and was very disgusted, "No one will come here, let's take a break and go back after the time." ”

The little monkey was still a little hesitant, "Then why don't you go to the stone dragon demon?" ”

"What are you looking for, looking for a fart," the old monkey sneered, "The stone dragon demon is a great demon who has cultivated for thousands of years, and we have to run into it, and it is not enough for him to fill his stomach."

Come on, come on, drink and drink, don't think about things you shouldn't think. ”

"Yes, yes," the little monkey echoed, complaining, "This stone dragon demon is also true, and the king ordered us to prepare a banquet at dusk, I don't know how this stone dragon demon angered the king." ”

The old monkey knew something inside, and said, "Do you remember, didn't the mine collapse a while ago, I heard that there was a treasure, and the stone dragon demon came for that treasure." ”

"What baby?" When the little monkey heard the word baby, his eyes lit up.

The wind blew the sound of the water, and it seemed that there were other sounds hidden inside.

The old monkey poked his probe left and right, and after making sure that no one was there, he lowered his body, "It's a bead, a pearl of the night, it was found by a crab demon who can't transform yet, and it turned into a human form at once, and there is no flaw at all." ”

"Really?" The little monkey was surprised.

"Of course it's true," the old monkey smacked his mouth, "but unfortunately I ran too early that day, if I had stayed a little longer, I would have been taken by the pearl of that night, and maybe when I transform in the future, my monkey's tail will be able to be put in." ”

"That crab demonized into a human form, can't you go directly to the king's side to do something?" The little monkey's eyes were full of envy.

The old monkey said: "No, the tiger steward promoted him to be the captain of the squad on the spot, but unfortunately, he didn't have that blessing, maybe he was the first time to transform into shape, he didn't know how to walk, and he fell down the mountain at night." You think, the crab has eight legs, it is climbing, and suddenly it becomes two legs, and it has to walk, how to walk all at once, or the mountain road. ”

The little monkey nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, crabs, they climb." ”
