67 Visit the altar by night
You must know that the mist rising from the pool of green water at this moment, although it is not too big, it is clear that the fog that Xie Yixiang saw in the wilderness that day is ordinary, and Dai Qi, Qu Baoshu, Hai Yisu and Qingzhu Old Man were still trapped in it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Dai Qi's reaction at this moment also happened to illustrate this, presumably seeing the fog rising from the green water, which suddenly reminded him of the giant beast hidden in the depths of the fog that day.
Xie Yixiang originally refused to believe that there were really any "chaos beasts" in this world, even after listening to Qu Baoshu's narration, he thought that what they saw in the fog that day was mostly an illusion generated in panic. However, after the attack of the giant snake king just now, seeing this mist again at this moment, she couldn't help but waver in her heart, and said secretly: "Could it be that there really is such a 'Chaos Beast', and it is hidden in this pool of green water?"
Seeing that bubbles kept rising on the surface of the green water, and the condensed fog on the water surface became bigger and bigger, but in a few moments, more than a dozen strange snakes, large and small, came out of the stone cave that everyone had just passed, swam straight to the pool of green water, and all disappeared into the mist.
Judging from the strange snake that just poked out of the water to attack Qu Baoshu, most of the "chaos beasts" hidden under this pool of green water were also a giant snake of the size of the snake king, Xie Yixiang saw the appearance of these strange snakes again, and then remembered that he had eaten one with Dai Qi just now, and couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.
After the dozen or so strange snakes disappeared into the mist, the pool of green water gradually returned to calm, and the fog no longer condensed, but slowly dispersed little by little. Lu Santong and the others beside the green water under the mountain wall were silent for a moment, and seemed to discuss for a while, and then they no longer paid attention to the pool of green water, and went to the town in the valley that looked like Chilong Town again.
I don't know why this senior Dai Qi insisted on refusing to walk with everyone, Xie Yixiang didn't want to ask again at this time. When Lu Santong and his party walked far, the two people on the convex rock on the mountain wall breathed a sigh of relief. After this delay, the scene in the whole valley had gradually dimmed, and by a little reckoning, it was in the evening that the light that had fallen overhead into the valley had diminished. As night fell, the town in the valley gradually lit up.
I only heard Dai Qi beside him suddenly say: "Mortals have a life and death, how can there be any immortality? If you can really be immortal, won't you become a monster?" Xie Yixiang heard him say such a sentence without a head, and was about to ask, but Dai Qi continued: "So I came this time, not for any immortality, but to find the long-dead Shushan lineage, so as to complete my Emei peerless school." ”
You must know Dai Qi's thoughts, don't say that it is Xie Yixiang, even if it is Lu Santong and others, I am afraid that they have already guessed eight or nine times out of ten. At this moment, hearing Dai Qi admit it in person, and then recalling the kung fu used by this mysterious family, such as "Instant Thousand Miles", "King Qin's Liuhe Sword" and "Painting Water and Ice Palm", it is indeed the long-lost mastery of the Shushan School. From this point of view, although Yan Sidao used the ghost words of "eternal death" to coax everyone to this point as a post-Han person who had "lived for nearly four hundred years", he did not lie about the fact that this mysterious family was inherited from the Shushan lineage.
I only heard Dai Qi say again: "Right now, in this valley, the most strange thing is the altar next to the green water, and most of the mysteries are hidden below. If I had predicted it, there would have been a harvest at that altar. After saying this, he raised his eyes to look at Xie Yixiang, and the implication was clearly to invite her to accompany him.
Xie Yixiang nodded slightly, and muttered: "As the predecessor said, according to the layout of this valley, the town in it is naturally the residence of the other party, although the big house beyond the town does not know what it is used for, but it is mostly for residential purposes, only the altar next to the green water is strange." If there are any secrets hidden in this mysterious family, most of them are in this altar, and they can naturally think of this senior. But the altar was clearly reluctant to leave the stone cave in the valley where we entered, but they did not go there, but went to the town in the valley along the pool of green water, why is this ......?"
Speaking of this, she suddenly came to her senses and explained to herself: "Yes, everyone fought with the snake king in the Han Tomb, and it can be said that there were heavy casualties, and most of the luggage and belongings carried with her, and even food and water, I am afraid that most of them were lost. The reason why Senior Lu and the others chose to go to that town first was most likely to seek supplies. ”
That Dai Qi waited for her to finish speaking, and then said slowly: "I remember that you came here to find some kind of military salary. If the military salary is really robbed by these lonely souls and wild ghosts, as long as there are silver taels left, nine times out of ten they are also stored in this altar. ”
Dai Qi's words immediately moved Xie Yixiang, didn't he come to the shore of Poyang Lake this time to find the stolen military salary of the imperial court? Moreover, it has been confirmed by Jiang Wangcai, Yan Sidao and Lu Santong that the robbery of military salary must have been committed by this mysterious family called "Yin Soldier", and what is missing at the moment is only evidence. Since they have already gone to the "underworld" where they live, which is the valley right now, of course, Dai Qitong has to go to that altar to investigate.
At that moment, the two of them discussed a little, and seeing that the twilight was getting deeper, they planned to wait until late at night to act, so they concentrated on the convex rock of this mountain wall to breathe and recuperate. After about two or three hours, it was already two o'clock, and all the lights in the town in the valley had been extinguished, and it was pitch black, except for a few lights where the altar was. Dai Qi and Xie Yixiang discussed a few more words, and Dai Qi led Xie Yixiang to slide quietly from the mountain wall, bypassing the strange pool of green water, and approaching the altar along the foot of the mountain wall.
About half an hour later, in the middle of the night, in the faint light of the lights, the outline of the altar was clearly visible. Xie Yixiang didn't feel it when he looked down from the mountain wall, but as he slowly approached the altar at this moment, he felt more and more that this three-story building looked extremely majestic in the dark, faintly revealing a solemn fragrance. When they got closer, the two of them suddenly noticed that the lights flickering near the altar at the moment were clearly the lanterns in the hands of the patrolmen, and it was obvious that there were many people guarding around the altar.
You must know that the altar is surrounded by a man-made flat land, and there is no shelter. Dai Qi and Xie Yixiang walked along the mountain wall, and they didn't dare to get close at the moment, so they had to hide their figures behind the rocks under the mountain wall, about a few zhang away from the altar. Xie Yixiang counted the lanterns and estimated slightly, and was taken aback: at present, there were as many as eight people patrolling around this altar, and they were many feet apart from each other, and they were wandering around this altar, thus guarding this altar impenetrable. Looking at the appearance of these guards, they were just ordinary young people, wearing ordinary coarse cloth clothes, and they were only twenty or thirty years old.
Unexpectedly, the guards here are so strict, it seems that Dai Qi's inference is indeed correct, there must be some secret things hidden in this altar, which is why this mysterious family attaches so much importance to it. And under such a guard in front of them, it is impossible for him and Dai Qi to sneak in; if they want to restrain each other, first, they don't know the depth of the martial arts of these eight people, if they all have the skills of Mayor Wu, they may not be able to win easily with only themselves and Dai Qi; second, these eight people are scattered around the altar at the moment, separated by many feet from each other, if they make a sneak attack, as long as one or two fish are left behind, their whereabouts will be immediately exposed, which will alarm more people on the other side, and even alarm the entire valley.
At that moment, Dai Qi and Xie Yixiang glanced at each other, and they both shook their heads secretly, feeling that these guards in front of them were extremely hot. But judging from the guards who were so waiting for the other party, the altar in front of him was by no means simple, and it had to be investigated clearly no matter what. But for a while, the two didn't think of a way to break through.
Just when the two of them were helpless, they suddenly saw a little light in the darkness in the direction of the town in the valley, and then walked slowly towards the place where the altar was, and when the light was near, they looked closer, and saw that two people, one fat and one thin, sharing a lantern, were walking towards the altar. Immediately two guards came up to the altar and stopped the fat and thin men in front of the altar.
In the dark night, Xie Yixiang's "poor thousands of miles" magic power could be seen clearly, and she was taken aback. It turned out that the two people who came in the direction of the altar at this moment, one fat and one thin, turned out to be Wu Yurong, the mayor of Chilong Town, and Jin Liang, the head catcher!
