The place below called "Hongyan Plain" is vast, and Xiao Tianhe and they have been flying over the plain for two days. According to Shi Haoming, the size of Hongyan Yuan is comparable to that of the Hanhai Gobi. And Jin Chanyu told everyone that Hongyan has been famous in the demon world for a long time because of the prosperity of "Five States and Sixteen Cities". The so-called five states are only roughly divided into five areas: east, west, north, south, and central according to the water veins on the Hongyan Plain. The sixteen cities are scattered across the vast plains, and about seven of the city's inhabitants are the Feather Demon Clan. In fact, compared to the human terran realm, it is very strange that there are only sixteen big cities in such a vast Hongyan Plain. On the plains of the same size in the Terran territory, let alone sixteen, even one hundred and sixty can be called "vast and sparsely populated".

There is the majestic Shaqing Mountain in the north of Hongyan Plain, there is Chiliu Mountain in the south, and Baiyu Mountain in the northeast, only in the southeast direction there is an interface with the Hanhai Gobi, and the west is a vast ocean, so it can be regarded as surrounded by mountains on three sides and adjacent to water on one side. The unique semi-enclosed environment makes Hongyanyuan a comfortable and pleasant climate, with abundant vegetation.

"Many demon clans don't like to live in groups. So don't look at the big cities in Hongyan Plain, but there are a lot of demon clans. Especially in the depths of the forest, the bottom of rivers and lakes, and the low hills, there are many demon clan masters who practice in seclusion. Breaking in without saying hello can sometimes anger them. Shi Hao said.

Ao Jianwei smiled and said: "Isn't it the same for us in the Tianhai? No matter how small the island is, you can't trespass at will, if it disturbs the cultivation of the masters, although it will not cause the disaster of killing, the taste of being beaten is not pleasant." ”

He Tianyao pursed his lips: "Are the tempers of the masters very strange? The territory of the demon clan is already extremely vast, and there is no courtyard wall, who knows where there are people who cultivate in seclusion? If you want to say hello, you have to have a door to knock on!"

"Occasionally, I passed by in a hurry, and naturally everything was fine. If you stay for a long time or go too deep, the master will usually warn you. If you still ignore it, then you will inevitably meet and fight. Jin Chanyu suddenly smiled and said, "He Gongzi probably thinks that the demon clan is all unreasonable people?"

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that......" He Tianyao scratched his head, looking embarrassed.

Jin Chanyu said with a straight face: "However, the person we are going to meet this time has a really strange temper, and when we get to the Naughty Boy Valley, don't walk around and bump into each other, just follow me closely." ”

"Naughty Boy Valley......" Shi Haoming muttered, "how do I feel as if I've heard this name somewhere before...... Brother Jairus, have you ever heard of it?"

Ao Jianwei shook his head: "It's the first time I've heard of it." However, Hongyanyuan's 'Five Prefectures and Sixteen Cities' is like thunder, and I heard that all the craftsmen of Habe are gathered here, and the three mountains and one sea on all sides just provide sufficient materials for casting. Who are you looking for, Lord Jin?

"Don't say it, don't say it. Jin Chanyu was once again vague about the identity of this person, "I'm sorry, I promised this person that I would never tell the second person his identity and whereabouts. ”

"It's really weird......" several people thought in their hearts.

"Ministry Master, will you make him angry if you take a few of us to see him this time?" Ao Jianwei was slightly worried.

"I only promised him not to tell the second person, but I didn't say that I wouldn't take the second person with me, so it didn't matter. Jin Chanyu said with a smile, "The Naughty Boy Valley is at the southern foot of Shaqing Mountain. There are three mountains there, and the names are very interesting, one is called 'Erzhi Mountain', the other is called 'Fist Mountain', and the other is called 'Bazhang Mountain'. Three mountains surrounded the valley of the urchins. There is a mountain road entrance to the north, southwest, and southeast of the valley. This time we entered the valley from the southeast entrance. ”

"Ahh That's right, the man in the Valley of the Naughty Boy is really a man like the Naughty Boy, and the names of the three mountains are also his own. Knowing who he is, I also know the purpose of the head of the ministry to find him.

"Oh?" Jin Chanyu raised her eyebrows, "Have you heard of him?" Strange, he has always been afraid that others will know where he lives, so there are only a handful of people who know his whereabouts, and they have promised him never to leak the news, where did you hear about it?"

"Did you promise him this: 'Keep it a secret and never tell anyone until you die?'" Shi Hao said.

"Hey, how do you know? Could it be that you are also one of his friends?" Jin Chanyu said in surprise.

Shi Haoming shook his head and smiled lightly: "That's not the case. I found out about it from my mother. ”

"Huh, that is, Ling Tang did not keep his promise and revealed the secret to you!" He Tianyao blurted out in a straightforward manner.

Xiao Tianhe immediately snorted at him.

"The promise is 'I can't tell anyone until I die', and I found out the note she left me when I was sorting through my belongings after my mother's death. So mother, she didn't break her promise. Recalling his deceased relatives, Shi Haoming's expression was a lot more melancholy.

"Uh...... I'm sorry, I just said something offensive......" He Tianyao saw Xiao Tianhe glaring at him fiercely again, and hurriedly apologized to Shi Haoming.

Shi Haoming sighed: "It's okay. She is always thinking about others, no matter how big or small, and everything is careful...... Forget it, don't mention it. ”

Shi Haoming's mother is the wife of the Demon King of the Scales, but Jin Chanyu knows very little about her, because Shi Potian never mentions his wife in front of outsiders. After his wife died, he never renewed. Originally, Jin Chanyu wanted to take this opportunity to ask for details, but seeing that Shi Haoming didn't want to say much, she had to give up.

"But as far as I know, even if I know that the man is in the Valley of the Naughty Boys, it will not be easy to meet him. Shi Haoming said again, "He has set a lot of rules. Even his friends have to play by the rules. ”

"Heh, if you want to talk about the rules, Hua Junmai's 'Ten Doctors and Ten Non-Doctors' is called strict! The rules of the Naughty Boy Valley are not necessarily weirder than this, right?" He Tianyao looked at Hua Qingyu and smiled

。

Hua Qingyu gave him a roll of his eyes: "Rules are dead, but people are alive." The rules are cold, but the heart is hot. Since I entered Hua Jun's sect, Master and I have treated many people!"

"That's ......," He Tianyao smiled.

"But this man in the Valley of the Naughty Boy doesn't have any affection. Rules are rules, and things are done in full accordance with the rules. If he doesn't follow the rules, he won't recognize his relatives at all. Jin Chanyu said, "I have three things to find him, and Shi Gongzi should have only guessed one." Well, soon you'll know that the mountain is there. ”

Suddenly, a female voice sounded in the air: "Who's coming?"

Several people were startled and looked around, but there was no one in sight.

"Don't look for it, I'm not in heaven, I'm not on earth. Acquaintances hurry up and leave here, and make a detour over Shaqing Mountain!" the woman said.

"On the ground!" the others were even more surprised, and listened to her voice as if it were right next to them.

After landing, Jin Chanyu looked left and right, and immediately found the person's hiding place, and smiled: "Our destination is ahead, so we can't take a detour." ”

"Then are you toasting and not eating and drinking?" the woman seemed to be angry.

"Anyway, you can get out of the grass first. You have to face to face to talk before you can count as courtesy!" Shi Haoming also discovered the man's hiding place.

"Hmph, cunning man, you want to trick me, no way!" the woman scolded, and the grass not far away suddenly trembled.

Ao Jianwei turned his head to scan the grass, and suddenly showed his bone knife and slashed at the ground, shouting: "Get up!" A knife wave shot out against the ground, and the blades of grass were cut off everywhere and flew in the air.

"Oops!" heard a scream, and a figure flew up in the grass, and after a few heels in the air, it landed right on Ao Jianxi's arms.

Ao Jianwei smiled and asked, "How is it, little girl, do you dare to be fierce again?"

Xiao Tianhe looked at it fixedly, and it turned out to be a little girl of four or five years old with two pigtails, and they couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at!bunch of bad guys, put me down!" The little girl's voice changed back to a childlike voice, and she squeezed Ao Jianwei vigorously for a while.

It didn't hurt but it was very itchy, Ao Jianwei laughed, suddenly let go, the little girl fell a fart, she couldn't get up, and sat there with her arms crossed.

"Well, little girl, we're not bad people. There is no shop in front of the village here, why do you let us take a detour?" Ye Linglong stepped forward and wanted to help her up, but unexpectedly, the little girl had a big temper, beat her outstretched hand back, and said angrily: "'The gentleman doesn't move his hands', there are so many of you, and you suddenly attack me with such a long broken knife, and you say that you are not a bad person?"

Ao Jianwei bent down and smiled: "You little girl, there are not many people, and there are a lot of words...... You've been attacked by me, have you ever been hurt, not to mention hurt, even if you have the slightest pain, I'll let you fight back, and never fight back, how?"

The little girl hesitated, "What do you mean...... You deliberately showed mercy?"

"Haha, I'm still 'merciful', I haven't done it at all! You hide in the grass and refuse to show your face, I just used a little magic power to 'invite' you out. ”

"Hmm......" The little girl got up and patted the dust on her body: "Okay, okay, if you don't fight, you don't know each other, I believe you are not bad people." But it's not a good place ahead, so you'd better be in trouble, let's take a detour!"

Several people glanced at each other. Jin Chanyu asked, "Little girl, why do you say, 'The front is not a good place'? ”

"Front...... The mountain is closed. Aren't you able to fly, and it's not easy to get around this place?"

Seeing that the little girl still didn't understand what everyone meant, Jin Chanyu squatted down, hugged her waist, and said softly: "Little girl, we want to go to the valley ahead, not to cross the Shaqing Mountain." ”

As soon as she heard that she was going to the valley, the little girl immediately became nervous again, and asked vigilantly, "What are you going to do in the valley ahead?"

"Find a friend. Jin Chanyu said.

The little girl pushed Jin Chanyu's hand away and shook her head again and again: "No, no, the valley in front is too dangerous, and there are traps everywhere." There's no one in there, so you must be mistaken. ”

"If there is no one, who set up the mechanism?" Xiao Tianhe asked.

"There's no ...... in there There is no one, only a ghost!cannibal ghost!" the little girl choked out this sentence.

At this time, even the most serious Shi Haoming couldn't hold back, and everyone was laughing. Shi Haoming said: "Okay! Ghosts are a rare thing, we have to go in and have a look." ”

The little girl blushed and stretched out her arms in front of everyone: "No! you can't go in!"

"All right, little girl, did your master tell you to stay here? It's really out of tune!" Jin Chanyu was a little dissatisfied.

"This ......"

"Your master's name is Qu Xingxuan, right?"

The little girl shook her head and said, "I don't know Master's name, he never said it." ”

"He has been living in seclusion in the Valley of the Naughty Boys, and he also named the three mountains outside the valley Erzhi Mountain, Fist Mountain, and Bazhang Mountain, and named the house he lives in Hei Yuxuan, right?"

Seeing that Jin Chanyu even said the name of the room correctly, the little girl's eyes widened: "Are you really Master's friends?"

"Yes. Tell me, is something happening in the valley?"

"A few days ago, a few people suddenly came to the valley, and Master had a big quarrel with them. Then he commanded me to stay here, and to inform him of anyone who was going to the valley. ”

"Then why are you deliberately pretending to be an adult to scare us?" Hua Qingyu asked.

The little girl's face turned red: "Don't pretend to be an adult, I'm worried that you won't listen to me." ”

"Then why don't you go and report to Master? Ye Linglong said.

Master said that if you are passing by, you should just tell you to take a detour. I saw that you were flying so high that it didn't look like you were going to the valley, so I 'persuaded you with kind words'......"

"It turned out to be a misunderstanding. Take us to your master now. He Tianyao said.

The little girl shook her head again: "I just said 'seal the mountain', but it's true! Master has sealed the Naughty Boy Valley, and if you want to go in to see him, you can only rely on yourself." ”

"What do you use to seal the mountain?" He Tianyao wondered.

"Tianyao, I see that your head is about to turn into bricks! Didn't she just say? There are all organs in the valley, and it must be the organs that have blocked the road. "Hua Qingyu said.

He Tianyao laughed dryly: "Yes, I actually forgot." The road is closed, so let's fly in from the sky. ”

"No, I can't. Jin Chanyu said, "Oh, this is one of the rules of that person, if you want to see him, you can only walk into the valley, otherwise he won't see the king of heaven!"

"This stinks ......," He Tianyao scolded in a low voice.

Jin Chanyu once again told everyone: "I have learned his organs before, and they are very powerful." You will follow me closely for a while, and don't fall behind or act on your own. ”

The little girl reminded: "The current mechanism is different from before. In this way, I will give you a hint, if you want to enter the valley, you must pay attention to the 'right time, place and people'. The time of day is the hour. The time of entering the valley must correspond to the earth's branches of the day, and the location is the place of entering the valley. There are seven of you, divided into three groups, and each of you enters the valley through three entrances, which means that each group must have a man and a woman. If you don't meet these three conditions, even if you break through the trap, Master won't see you. ”

Hua Qingyu was happy and stabbed He Tianyao: "How is this rule compared to my pulse's 'ten doctors and ten non-doctors'?"

"It's really troublesome......" He Tianyao sighed.

"The real trouble is yet to come! The traps in the valley are deadly, not to be underestimated as a game. Jin Chanyu said, "Fortunately, we have exactly three women." There are seven people in total, so they have to be divided into two, two, and three. Ao Gongzi took the flower girl to enter from the '20th Road' in the southeast of the valley, Shi Gongzi took Ye Girl to enter from the '52 Road' in the southwest of the valley, and I took Xiao Gongzi and He Gongzi to enter from the '15th Road' in the north of the valley. Today is Ding Mao Day, but the time has passed. Therefore, wait for the hour of the day of the day of the next day to enter the valley. ”

"Wait, what do you mean by 'twenty', 'fifteen' or something?"

Jin Chanyu explained helplessly: "That's also the strange name given by the people in the valley to the three paths into the valley. The southeast one is called 'Twenty Roads', the southwest one is called 'Five Two Roads', and the one due north is called 'Fifteen Roads'. ”

"Twenty, fifty-two, fifteen...... It's hard to remember. Ao Jianwei couldn't help but complain.

At this time, the little girl "giggled" and laughed: "Actually, it is not difficult to remember according to the name of the mountain." ”

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, the little girl explained triumphantly, "This is the little secret of Master that my sister and I discovered. Well, this mountain in the south of the Naughty Boy Valley has two peaks, so the master calls him Erzhi Mountain, which is a 'two'; the mountain in the northwest is very thin, like a person's palm, so it is called the Palm Mountain. Then the road sandwiched between the southwest entrance of the two mountains is, of course, called '52 Road'. The mountain in the northeast has a lot of round stones the size of a fist, so it is called fist mountain, and the clenched fist is a 'ten', so the other two roads are called 'twenty roads' and 'fifteen roads' according to the mountains on their left and right. Sister, she's guarding the fifteen crossings now, so I'll go with your group. ”

After the little girl finished speaking, everyone was silent for a long time. Finally, Xiao Tianhe cleared his throat: "Two, ten, five, two fingers, fists, slaps...... Do you think the same as me?"

"Of course, isn't that 'scissors, rock, paper'! The people in this valley are really weird guys!" He Tian looked at the "Erzhi Mountain" from afar, and couldn't laugh or cry.
