Chapter 81: The Wooden House
Qin Wen and Lu Mo walked for nearly two days, and the scenery in front of them gradually changed from a slightly barren meadow to a grassy plain, with occasional woods and streams, and did not encounter a crack in the aura, but what made Qin Wen strange was that although there was abundant aura, all the animals encountered were ordinary animals, and there was no spirit beast.
And in the past few days, I didn't feel the breath of human life, it was completely a scene of a wild plain, and I saw a small hillside in the distance, on which a few dilapidated wooden houses were faintly visible, Qin Wen's heart suddenly came up, and he said to Lu Mo: "It should be a high-level monk who arranges the formation, let's be careful." ”
Lu Mo nodded slightly, and then sent a voice back to Qin Wen: "If it is a high-level monk who arranges the formation living here, it is estimated that he has already discovered us, so we might as well go out and pay a respect, and there is no hostility." ”
Qin Wen hesitated, what Lu Mo said also made sense, judging from the reactions of the Tianmi Sectists, the high-level monks in this forbidden area should have nothing to do with the Tianmi Sect, but this kind of high-level monks have always been moody, and if they don't like to be disturbed, it may backfire.
Qin Wen first used his divine sense to slightly check the surroundings of the wooden house, and found no signs of vitality running, and couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, so he said: "Why didn't I find the fluctuation of spiritual energy here, is there no monk in this wooden house now?"
Lu Mo took out his array disk again at this time, entered the vitality into the array disk, and then said to Qin Wen: "Let's just enter the array disk and check it out, but if it is really a monk who arranges the outer aura crack formation, my array disk may not have any effect on him." ”
After Qin Wen entered the array, he said to Lu Mo in a loud voice: "Let's go down the hill first, if there is really no warning, go up and take a look, if there is a monk inside, it will not be too late to go up the mountain to visit at that time." ”
The two of them went to the hillside in front of them under the defense of the array plate, but after waiting for nearly half a pillar of incense at the bottom of the hillside, they didn't feel any aura movement on it, Qin Wen knew that if they wanted to continue to walk out of the outside formation, it was essential to find the formation eye or array disk in the wooden house above.
He glanced at Lu Mo, and then Qin Wen said in his heart: "There is no situation on this side now, it is better to go up the hill to the wooden house to investigate." ”
Lu Mo also knew the situation of the two of them now, although they might encounter a greater danger than the aura crack on it, but they couldn't avoid it, so they cautiously strengthened the vitality in the array, and then the two of them walked towards the hillside, the weeds under their feet were already all over the hillside, and it was almost impossible to find any traces of walking.
After a half-pillar of incense, the two cautiously walked to the hillside, in front of them was a flat slope top, the wooden house was in the center, and there were some elixirs growing in front, according to Qin Wen's eyes, these elixirs have been nearly three thousand years old, and they can be regarded as Xuan-level high-grade medicinal materials, but judging from the distribution, this is obviously planted here.
Continuing to take two steps forward, Qin Wen saw that the medicine garden where the elixir was planted was completely deserted, many weeds were mixed in it, and even the ditches were no longer traces, Qin Wen then looked at the types of elixirs, all of which were relatively out-of-the-way elixirs, with main medicines and dispensing medicines, and he couldn't see what elixirs could be refined at all, but it was like a monk who planted elixirs found some seeds and planted them here, not thinking about whether these herbs were suitable to be planted together.
Judging from the situation of the medicine garden, this place should not have been cleaned up for a long time, and now it is very close to the wooden house, Qin Wen has clearly seen that the wooden door is wrapped in a thick layer of spider webs, and the rafter corners on the side have also shown signs of decay, Qin Wen turned sideways to Lu Mo and said, "It seems that this place should be uninhabited." ”
Lu Mo also found some details, pointed to the roof above and said to Qin Wen: "Two top logs have fallen from this corner, like in this kind of place with abundant spiritual energy, the wooden roof can be corroded, it is estimated that this wooden house is also some years old, but we still have to be careful, it is better to remove the array plate first, and then I will knock on the door first." ”
Seeing Qin Wen nodding, Lu Mo removed the array plate, then put it in his arms, and slowly walked to the door of the wooden house, with a more modest attitude and said loudly: "The junior strayed into the valley, I don't know which senior is practicing here, if you disturb, I hope to forgive the sin." ”
There was a half-pillar of incense when the words fell, and there was only a faint breeze blowing in the wooden house making a hollow sound, and there was no one in it to answer, so Lu Mo turned around and looked at Qin Wen hesitantly, and waited until Qin Wen walked to his side, and then said in a low voice: "There is no answer inside, and there is no fluctuation of spiritual energy, it seems that there is indeed no one in this room." ”
Qin Wen slowly pushed open the wooden door with his hand, the cobwebs on it fell in response, the entire door shaft also decayed, and the wooden door fell to the ground with a "snap", and the two of them were all dust.
After the dust fell, what appeared in front of Qin Wen was an ordinary monk's room, with two quaint Taishi chairs, and a slightly broken square table, and a bed three feet away from the square table, and the bed was empty, only a pillow made of bamboo tubes was placed squarely on the side.
There was also a chaise longue next to the bed, and the window paper in the back window had been torn into a big hole, and the chaise longue swayed and squeaked when the mountain wind blew behind it.
Seeing that there was no one in this room, Qin Wen and Lu Mo's hearts couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but there were two side rooms next to them, and they didn't dare to enter the room, so they turned around and walked towards the other side room, and came to the door, this time Qin Wen did not push the door directly, but slowly pushed the wooden door with his vitality.
After the wooden door was opened, it didn't hit the ground like the door just now, and the door shaft on it was only broken, just staggering and falling there, but the two Qin Wen outside the door had already seen the furnishings inside, and on the left side of the room were two or three dilapidated Dan furnaces that fell horizontally and vertically to the side, and a ground fire vent pressed by stones didn't know if it could be used.
On the right side of the room are metal and rocks of various colors, and there is a round model on a black metal platform, which seems to be a plate that has not been made haode, Lu Mo just wanted to go in and check it, but Qin Wen blocked him with his hand, and said in a low voice: "There is also a wooden house next to it, after we make sure that there is no one in it, let's check these things." ”
Lu Mo retracted his steps into the room, and the two continued to walk towards another room, and after pushing open the wooden door, it turned out to be a study, although the wooden roof above the bookshelf had decayed, but there should be a formation support near the bookshelf, and the books inside were still placed in an orderly manner.
Seeing that there were no monks in the three wooden houses, and it seemed that there had been no one to live in them for a long time, Qin Wen's hearts were relieved, but they did not check the items inside directly in the study, but returned to the living room.
Looking at the empty room, Qin Wen pondered for a while and said: "I think this wooden house should have been visited by no one for a long time, this is probably a place for a high-level monk to practice, and there are a lot of books in the study, it should still be a place where he lives regularly, but now it is not clear whether he is going out to travel or there are other conditions." ”
Lu Mo nodded, and agreed with Qin Wen's opinion, so he glanced at the room and said, "Let's take this opportunity to check the items inside first, maybe we can get some information about the owner of this wooden house, and it is also possible to find the formation disk or formation eye of the outside formation." ”
Qin Wen bowed slightly: "I see that there is a Dan furnace in that room just now, and there are some spirit stones for refining array plates, it is better to search from that room first, but we also have to hurry up, although it seems that there has been no one living here for a while, but if the owner of the wooden house comes back, then we will still encounter trouble." ”
After speaking, Qin Wen took Lu Mo back to the side room on the left, and after removing the rickety wooden door, Qin Wen first walked to the side of the earth fire, and casually looked at the Dan furnace, and found that there was a spirit-level low-grade Dan furnace inside, although there was still some dust on it, but it was still intact.
The other two Dan furnaces were all Xuan-level top-grade, but looking at the broken hole above, Qin Wen knew that it should be the Dan furnace after the explosion, and they could no longer be used, and then he turned over the stones on the ground fire mouth, and checked it with Yuan Qi that it was still slightly warm, and it seemed that it was still usable.
At this time, he turned to look at Lu Mo's side, only to see that Lu Mo was looking at the unfinished array plate on it, his face was solemn, and he asked, "Did you find anything over there?"
Lu Mo put down the array plate and said: "This is the first time I have seen the model of this array disk, but it is very similar to the aura crack outside in terms of efficacy, but it is not the array disk of that formation, this should be an unfinished array disk, these stones and metals next to it are all spiritual objects for refining the array disk, and the grades are all above the Xuan level, if there is a storage bag, you can also trade some good things if you take these away." ”
Qin Wen shook his head and said: "I don't know the situation of the owner of the wooden house yet, don't move these things yet, if he doesn't come back, then let's take some useful ones away when we're leaving." ”
The two of them saw that this room did not find what they needed, so they turned to another room, this room is a study, although there is a formation on the bookshelf, but the desk next to it is full of dust, Lu Mo first checked whether the formation on the bookshelf can be broken.
Qin Wen used his vitality to lightly brush the dust on the desk, a gust of wind blew, and the desk revealed its clean and clean nature, Qin Wen saw that there was just a paperweight pressed under his eyes, and there were a few lines written on it, and he couldn't help but read it carefully.
