Chapter 169: Monkeys and Patterns!
Three days later.
The five of you entered the Qinling Mountains, and according to Gu Weiting's instructions, they went all the way to the interior.
Due to the clear purpose, there was not much stop in the middle, and in just half a day, the five of them went deep into a place where no one had set foot in it.
At noon, Tang Yingjie set up an iron pot, lit a fire, and was preparing the noon meal, constantly busy......
Xia Mingyu was giving him a hand, while Hong Bin and Fu Chen were with You Fang, climbing high and looking, looking into the distance and probing.
Moment......
"I said Lao You, what are we looking for in this barren mountain range? You don't know anything along the way, now that you're in the mountains, it's time to reveal it, right? Hong Bin scratched his head and asked, this was the first time he had asked this question.
"Hmmm......"
Seeing that he was so curious, You Fang's face couldn't help but smile, but then he shook his head again: "I'm sorry, I really don't know, and the guy who gave me the news hasn't explained it yet." β
That's right, up to now, Gu Weiting hadn't told him anything about the Twenty-Four Jie Valley, so he could only pretend not to know and quietly wait for him to reveal the next news.
As for the reason, it is because Gu Weiting wants to take this opportunity to further exercise the "Guanshu" he has mastered, the qi of the Twenty-four Jiegu is powerful and mysterious, and has a strong concealment, if you can find it by "Guanshu", it means that his "Guanshu" cultivation has reached a very good situation.
In this regard, You Fang naturally did not say anything, as long as it was a test that was beneficial to his own cultivation, he would gladly accept it and be willing to carry it out.
At this moment, he performed the "Bai Ze Observation Technique" and released the "Six Senses Incarnation", allowing the avatar to ride Bai Ze around and look for an unusual place.
"We're not going to be fooled by that guy, are we? What is necessary to be so mysterious......" Hearing You Fang's answer, Hong Bin's mouth couldn't help but pursed, and his face was speechless.
Although he didn't have any opinions on Youfang's decision-making, he kept looking for something that he didn't even know what it was, which really made his heart like a cat scratch, and his curiosity itched.
So, he immediately looked at Fu Chen on the other side and shouted at him, "Heyβold Fuβhave you figured out something?" β
At this time, Fu Chen, who was deducing the strangeness in the Qinling Mountains in the interior scene, heard his shout, his body suddenly shook, and then opened his eyes.
"Hiss......"
Then, Fu Chen took a deep breath and glanced at You Fang, who was still using the "Observation Technique" to observe the surroundings, and his expression was a little complicated.
And the reason why he reacted this way was because what he saw in the interior scene was an infinite darkness, which meant that the secrets in this Qinling Mountains were very extensive, and ordinary deductions could not get the slightest information.
"Lao You, what is hidden in this Qinling Mountains...... It seems like a big deal. After a long silence, Fu Chen shook his head and looked at You Fang at the same time.
"May I ask who the person who told you the news is, and if he can be trusted?" Clearly, he was worried that this was a trap.
"Hehe, don't worry, that guy is my friend, you can also ...... It's my master. When You Fang heard this, he smiled and signaled him not to worry.
"At least from my point of view, he can be trusted, and he told me there were surprises here, but we just need to find out for ourselves."
ββ¦β¦β
"Well, well." Fu Chen nodded when he heard this, and then relaxed a little.
He believes that You Fang's vision and judgment of people are constantly confirmed along the way, and since the other party is a person who can be recognized by You Fang, there should not be too much of a problem.
"Oh? Lao Youling has other masters? Hearing this, Hong Bin immediately became interested, he only knew that You Fang had been practicing with his adoptive father since he was a child, but he didn't know that he also had another master.
"Well, it's the master who taught me the 'Observation Technique'." You Fang nodded, and didn't explain much, Gu Weiting's identity and the "Da Luo Cave View" he mastered were very sensitive, so it was better not to reveal it.
While the three of them were talking, Tang Yingjie's meal was also ready, Xia Mingyu shouted, and the three of them replied immediately.
"Good! Here it comes! β
Then, Hong Bin jumped off the tree first, he was already hungry, followed by Fu Chen, and You Fang was about to go down after retracting the six senses.
However......
"Huh?"
At this moment, You Fang's eyes moved, and he suddenly noticed something, and then turned his head to look behind him.
Then he saw that on the tops of several trees hundreds of meters behind him, there were several pairs of eyes quietly peeping, their eyes flickering and extremely smart.
"That's ......"
In the next moment, You Fang's eyes froze, and he once again performed the "Bai Ze Observation Technique" and looked over there seriously.
But at this moment, the pairs of eyes on the other side seemed to be aware of it, and they disappeared with a "swish", and they hid all of a sudden.
However, the moment they hid, You Fang still caught a little information, which was a handful of hair, and the color was golden.
In this way, he also knew the identity of the other party, and couldn't help but squint his eyes, and whispered to himself: "Is it a monkey......
He knew in his heart that there had always been a group of monkeys entrenched near the "Twenty-Four Heavenly Valley", and these guys relied on the miracle of the aura in the valley, and they all gave birth to a sense of Qi and turned into spirits and monsters.
It's just that although he already knew that these monkeys were very powerful, he didn't expect them to be so strong, just now he used the "Bai Ze Observation Technique" to observe for a week, but he didn't find them.
"Looks like these monkeys have a special way of concealment, hehe." As soon as he thought of this, You Fang also smiled.
Because he knew that when he saw these monkeys, he said that he was not far from the "Twenty-Four Valleys", and as long as he continued to move forward in the direction in which the monkeys appeared, he should be able to find them soon.
However, although he already knew the situation, he still had to do what he should do, and as soon as his mind moved, he used the "Bai Ze Observation Technique" to fugue and asked Gu Teranting: "Senior Gu, do you know what the situation of those monkeys is?" β
Soon......
"Hehe, you kid is cautious, you found out so quickly, but since you've found out, you don't need me to say more, right?" Gu Weiting then replied.
"So, these monkeys really know how to cultivate?" You Fang continued to ask, relying on the tip of the iceberg shown by the monkeys just now, it was enough to make this judgment.
"Well, almost, they are the guardians of that place, and they are also the original natives who have lived around there for generations, if there is no strange place, they will not survive now."
"Guardians?" You Fang raised his eyebrows, and then asked, "So, once we get close, they will attack us?" β
"That's right, unless they know you, or you can convince them, you might as well avoid them, they're fierce." Gu Weiting's tone was playful.
"So, they're pretty troublesome?" Hearing this, You Fanglu pondered.
Since Gu Terting can say this, it means that he is not optimistic that he and others can subdue these monkeys by force, and it also shows that the strength of these monkeys is quite strong.
"No, it should be a matter of numbers...... but soon, You Fang made the right judgment, and he clearly remembered that the number of these monkeys was quite amazing.
Numerity, Intelligence, Strength, Synergy, Ferocity...... All the conditions add up, it is a fierce team that is not afraid of death, and it is indeed not something that ordinary strangers can break through.
But......
"It's not like it can't be helped." After thinking about it for a while, You Fang had an idea in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face.
He then jumped straight down and landed on the ground, following the aroma of the food and returning to the camp......
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
After lunch.
"Monkeys?"
After listening to You Fang's explanation, Hong Bin and the four of them were all stunned, they never thought that their opponents would be a group of monkeys.
However, after thinking about it, it suddenly dawned on them that they were both primates and monkeys that were already close to humans in all aspects, and if there was a special opportunity, it would not be impossible for them to embark on the path of cultivation in groups.
"If we are looking for a place where such a group of monkeys can really embark on the path of cultivation, it is indeed a great opportunity, and it is worth exploring!" And then, Fu Chen grasped the key.
"That's right, I think so too, since that place can make monkeys become essences, it must be more beneficial to cultivators, and there will definitely be a lot of gains." You Fang smiled and nodded.
"So how do we break through the past?" At this time, Xia Mingyu raised his hand, he COS today was Sauron, and directly put his hands on the hilt of the knife on his waist, "Kill it directly?" β
"Hey, can you have a little common sense, those are golden monkeys, they are protected animals!" Hong Bin slapped him speechlessly and gave him a popular science.
"Lao Hong is right, we just want to find an opportunity, there is no need to kill indiscriminately." You Fang spoke at this time.
"However, if you ignore them, it will still be trouble after all, so ...... Yingjie. He immediately looked at Yingjie and smiled inexplicably.
ββ¦β¦β
"Understood."
Seeing You Fang's eyes, Tang Yingjie immediately understood what he meant, then nodded lightly and began to prepare.
That's right, You Fang is planning to use the elusive ability of the Tang Sect, plus its mechanism and poison, to directly arrange a "monkey trap" to subdue all these monkeys.
In this way, as long as the right type of poison is chosen, they can be dealt with without harming these monkeys, and then they can enter the valley smoothly.
As long as they can enter the valley, the monkeys will no longer be a problem, and even if they will be hindered when they get out of the valley, it will never be able to stop them from leaving.
So, the five of them immediately sat down and began to discuss the specific arrangements, and after brainstorming, they quickly finalized the plan.
Then, Tang Yingjie got up directly and entered the state of "phantom body barrier", and the whole person disappeared in place, heading straight in the direction where the monkeys appeared.
Their first step plan is very simple, Tang Yingjie, who is good at concealment, as a "scout", first find out the situation of the monkey group and the specific location of the destination, and then arrange it according to the situation.
As a professional in this area, Tang Yingjie's movements were also quite fast, and after a while, he touched the vicinity of the monkeys and found the "patrol monkey" hidden on the trunk of the tree and responsible for monitoring the periphery.
ββ¦β¦β
After carefully looking at a few monkeys and confirming that they couldn't sense him, Tang Yingjie immediately set off again.
Following the trail of monkeys, he soon found the location of the "big army" of monkeys, and immediately began to search for the vicinity and explore the peculiarities.
Ten minutes later......
Tang Yingjie came to a valley outside, which seemed to be a special place similar to a "line of sky", with a deep valley in front of him, and no end could be seen at a glance.
And then immediately after that......
"This is?!"
At a glance, he saw the special patterns in the valley and on the mountain walls on both sides, and a strange charm echoed in them, shocking his heart.
"These lines seem to ...... Is it artificially portrayed? Walking in, Tang Yingjie immediately found that although the lines on the mountain wall were coherent and regular, there were obvious traces of man-made traces, which made him look surprised.
As a genius of "refining weapons" and "organs", he is quite sensitive in this regard, and under careful inspection, he will never make a mistake in judgment.
Subsequently......
"Huh?"
Looking at it, he suddenly stared again, looked at some places above his head, and frowned slightly.
"On top of these artificially carved lines, there seem to be some different traces, such as ...... Left by another or another group of people. He began to look closer, and studied it carefully.
Moment......
"Well, that's right, there are two kinds of lines on the mountain wall, one is a deeper ravine, which is different in width and narrowness, but about the same depth......" he analyzed in his heart.
"The other is much shallower than these ravines, and the width is the same, and it is more fine, so thin that it seems to be attached to these ravines, and you will not notice it unless you look closely."
Although he didn't understand the meaning of these lines, just from the rhyme that emanated from them, Tang Yingjie was able to determine that the two groups of people here were by no means simple......
Then he turned his head to look at the depths of the valley, and felt that the depth of this valley was immeasurable, and what kind of guy could do such a huge amount of work.
However, shock to shock, he did not forget his mission, and after confirming that this should be the place they were looking for, he also began to arrange.
Taking advantage of the monkeys' blind spots, he began to quickly weave an invisible net at the mouth of the valley, the whole process was serious and rigorous, as if he was sketching art.
It took about an hour or so for Tang Yingjie to complete the arrangement of Taniguchi, and then returned the same way, continuing to arrange as he walked, until the mechanism covered the entire passage.
It then took him another half an hour to check, fine-tune the details, and make sure there were no accidental touches, before finally returning to the camp......
