Volume 2 Phantom Flowers in the World Chapter 29 Dongshan Exploration
The two of them rested in the city for one night, and the next day they carried their boats to the east according to the mountain to the east mentioned in the legend, and traveled a section of waterway, and the houses on the road gradually decreased, and they passed through a large reed field, and then they saw a pale green mountain in the distance.
"Brother Zhu'an, look!" Weaving Dream stood up from the bow of the boat and pointed to the mountain.
Zhu'an took a closer look, the trees on the mountain were lush and lush, the mountain was quite high, and the top of the mountain was already filled with a thick white mist, but there didn't seem to be any conspicuous stone palace buildings.
"Is it on this mountain?"
"It should be. ”
Zhu'an raised his eyebrows, and Weaving Dream tilted his head and blinked, "Let's go up the mountain and take a look!"
So they moored the boat and climbed up from the foot of the mountain.
After a while, Zhimeng wiped the sweat from his forehead suspiciously, and muttered: "Strange, I just looked down from the mountainside, and there is indeed the village I used to play in when I was a child, but how could I not find the Phantom Flower Palace?"
They walked for a long time in the mountains and forests, but not to mention the Phantom Flower Palace, there was not even a thatched house.
"Didn't you pay attention to the location of the palace when you went down the mountain before?"
The two climbed to the top of the mountain, and stood side by side on a cliff, the wind was so strong that their hair and clothes were blown up, and from the cliff they looked down was already full of white mist.
Weaving Dream lowered his head and looked at him embarrassedly, and said softly: "I used to be afraid when I ran out to play...... Master blamed, they all secretly climbed the wall from the flower courtyard behind the palace, and there was a big locust tree on the side of the palace wall that could be used as a ladder, and there was a very narrow mountain road outside the wall, and then through a peach blossom forest, you could lead to the small village below the mountain!"
"......" is actually climbing the wall to go out to play!
Weaving Dream said quite strangely: "But you can see the sky in the back flower courtyard of the Phantom Flower Palace! It should be on the mountain, why can't you find it?"
Zhu'an took two steps towards her, blocking some of the wind blowing under the cliff, and said warmly: "It's okay, let's think about the legend carefully, the immortal has indeed reached the east mountain." ”
And then ...... Then he chiseled through the belly of the mountain with a big axe!" Weaving Dream's eyes lit up, and he glanced at Zhu An, who also thought of it, and said, "Then the immortals built a stone city on the mountain. So ......"
So the Phantom Flower Palace could only be in one place! It was under the cliff they were standing on, in the belly of the mountain.
They walked more than a dozen steps along the edge of the cliff, found a broken cliff and looked down, and sure enough, there was a corner of the eaves of a stone temple more than ten zhang down.
"Zhu'an, look! Found it!" "Dream Weaver carefully observed and confirmed, pointing to the eaves, "It seems to be halfway up the mountain, but we didn't see it when we looked for it just now!"
Zhu'an pondered, and analyzed in a deep voice: "Maybe it's on the shady side of the mountain...... When we come by boat from the city, we look at this mountain from a distance, and we must feel that the back of this mountain is straight and steep and waterfront, and it is difficult to climb at all, so people who see it will fall into such a misunderstanding, choose to go up the mountain from the other side of the mountain is relatively gentle, and even some mountain roads have been repaired between the mountains here, presumably the villagers in the city often go up the mountain, and the Phantom Flower Palace is easy to affect people's judgment in order to hide the location, and it is undoubtedly the best natural barrier. ”
"I see, this guess is very reasonable!" Weaving Dream agreed with Zhu'an's analysis, and she confirmed the terrain again, "We can't go down from the top of the mountain at all, we have to go halfway up the mountain to find the shade of the mountain again!"
When the two turned back halfway up the mountain, Weaving Dream suddenly grabbed Zhu'an.
Zhu'an lowered his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Weaving Dream listened attentively, and said softly: "Brother, there is a murderous aura in the woods ahead. ”
Weaving Dream's internal strength is unfathomable, and her perception ability is stronger, so she trusts her ability and asks in a low voice, "Do you want to go over?"
I nodded my head and decided to take a look.
The two of them were on guard and slowly leaned over.
After getting closer, sure enough, there was a sound of fighting, and the two hid their breath and got closer and closer.
In a clearing between the dense forests, a large number of black-clothed people besieged a man in purple, and the battle was very tragic, with many corpses lying on the ground, full of blood.
Weaving Dream stared at the purple-clothed man with wide eyes, "Brother, isn't the person who was besieged the son who showed us the way?"
Zhu An nodded, "It is indeed a merciful child." ”
Rong Lianyi did not show cowardice with the enemy, his body was delicate, his posture was elegant, and the momentum around his body was very fierce, but there were blood stains on his lips, which were occasionally suppressed
Coughing a few times, it seems to be seriously injured.
Although the corpse of the man in black who was killed by him fell to the ground, more people in black still rushed up, Rong Lian was besieged and fell behind, as if he was physically exhausted, and his body was a little shaky, but the man in black still rushed over to surround Rong Lian endlessly, the attack was fierce and vicious, with the killing intent to kill him.
He killed the black-clothed people who surrounded him again, and Rong Lian coughed a few times, supporting his body with his sword and gasping.
The two looked at each other and flew forward.
Zhu An quickly drew his sword and pulled away a long sword that stabbed at Rong Lian, and entangled with the group of men in black.
Weaving Dream hurriedly went to support Rong Lian, who was injured and fell, "Hey, are you okay?"
Rong Lian coughed violently a few times, blood gushed from her lips, her pale cheeks became more and more colorful, Weaving Meng patted his back anxiously to smooth him, Rong Lian raised her eyes to look at her.
Weaving Dream climbed up to a thought at an inopportune time, and his face was pale and sick, coughing up blood...... It's beautiful.
Probably a beauty is beautiful in every appearance, even coughing up blood.
"Flower ......"
Before Rong Lian finished speaking, he vomited blood and fainted.
"Hey, what are you giving flowers?" Weaving Dream was confused, but he couldn't wake him up anymore.
"Zhu'an, he fainted!" Although Weaving Dream is strong in martial arts, he doesn't know anything about healing, so he has to ask for help from Zhu'an.
Zhu'an calmly repelled several waves of attacks from the black-clothed people, and firmly protected Weaving Dream and Rong Lian, the group of black-clothed people couldn't get close to Rong Lian at all, and quickly retreated when they saw that the situation was not good.
When Zhu'an heard the shout of Weaving Dreams, he didn't chase after him, and quickly collected his long-term affection and turned around and squatted down to check.
Rong Lian was injured in many places, and Zhu An quickly clicked a few key acupuncture points on his body to stop the bleeding, and took out a small porcelain bottle from the small cloth bag on his waist and poured a few pills out to feed him, and pressed Rong Lian's back with his right hand, slowly inputting internal force to catalyze the dissolution of the pill to relieve Rong Lian's internal injuries.
"How is he? Why did he vomit blood? He was fine when I saw him the day before. ”
"He's very badly injured and needs to be treated as soon as possible. ”
"Then let's go down the mountain now?" Weaving Dream stood up and looked around, the people in black had all run, only a large area of secluded woods, "This run is really far, it has reached the depths of the forest." ”
Zhu'an nodded, and carefully lifted Rong Lian up and leaned on his shoulder, "Save people first." ”
The two of them walked down the mountain with Rong Lian, and after walking more than a dozen steps, Weaving Dream suddenly fell under his feet, and the whole person fell down.
"Ahh
Zhu'an hurriedly stretched out his other hand and scooped her up, "Be careful!"
Weaving Dream patted her chest in horror after standing still, although she didn't fall but she just pounced, the Jin Chuan on her left arm slipped off, and rolled out along the ground with a grunt, there was a small slope in front of the mountain road, and Jin Chuan rolled down.
"How can I fall if I walk well, ah! My Jin Chuan is rolling......"
Weaving Dream muttered in wonder and looked at his feet, but he didn't see any stones to stumble.
"Wait for me, I'll pick it up. ”
Zhu An helped Rong Lian and asked, "Why don't you help Rong Gongzi first, and I'll help you pick it up." ”
Weaving Dream smiled and shook his head, "No, you stand here and wait for me, I'll be back soon." ”
Weaving Dream took a few steps in the direction that Jin Chuan had rolled away, and found that the small slope had turned a corner, and was headed towards a place where the grass and trees were thick.
Jin Chuan won't roll into the grass, will he?
Weaving Dream hurriedly ran along the path, and found that his Jin Chuan was lying alone in front of a dense grass as tall as a child, as if blocked by this grass.
She ran over and picked it up, wiping the dust, "You're pretty good at rolling." ”
Bringing Jin Chuan with him, Weaving Dream was about to turn back, casually glimpsing a cluster of red flowers blooming between the grass covers, and casually picked up the grass to take a look.
Seeing what was behind the grass, she stared wide-eyed and ran back.
Zhu'an waited for a while and didn't see Weaving Dream come back a little worried, and was about to go over to check, Weaving Dream's figure appeared from behind the small slope, and before he got to the front, he heard Weaving Dream calling him, "Brother, come quickly!"
Knowing that something was wrong, he helped Rong Lian to walk towards her.
"What's wrong?"
"Brother, come and see! I've found the Phantom Flower Palace!"
Curiously, Juan's approach was a little closer, and Weaving Dream pushed aside the grass in front of her.
No wonder they searched for a long time and didn't find it, except for the natural barrier built on the shady side of the mountain, the Phantom Flower Palace passed by normally from the mountain road
Pedestrians don't want to peel off the dense and chaotic grass to take a look, there is a very hidden mountain road behind the large thorny grass, go down a section of the way in, as if leading to the cave, faintly see the eaves of a stone archway.
"When I came out with Master, I passed by this stone archway!" Weaving Dream excitedly pointed to the corner of the eaves and said to Zhu'an.
Zhu'an looked around, the hidden path was already a sharp cliff, and a stone hall was built directly with mountain stones as raw materials, ordinary people would not go so close to the cliff to inspect, if it were not for this hidden mountain road, it would be difficult to approach the Phantom Flower Palace.
"Zhu'an, I remember that there are also a lot of precious medicinal materials in the Phantom Flower Palace, maybe they can be used, since we have found the Phantom Flower Palace, let's go and have a look first!"
Zhu'an nodded, thinking that the two of them had climbed the mountain for a long time and couldn't find it, but they met so coincidentally, a little crying and laughing, "This is really a nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there...... After looking for a long time to no avail, it was your bracelet that led the way. ”
Weaving Dream blinked innocently, "I wonder too! ”
Weaving dreams helped Zhu'an to help Rong Pian and walked towards the stone archway.
Getting closer and closer, the whole picture of the stone archway is gradually clear, delicate and atmospheric, and there are four dignified and dignified words engraved in the middle: the phantom flower of the world.
There is a section of stone road behind the archway, the end of the stone road is the Phantom Flower Palace, and the huge stone door engraved with the totem of flowers, vines, birds, and beasts is tightly closed, and there is a delicate petal stone lamp on both sides of the stone door.
The three of them walked through the stone archway, looked at the magnificent and exquisite huge stone gate, and asked curiously, "How can such a big stone gate be opened?"
Weaving Dream stepped forward and patted the door casually, there were two beast-faced shop head rings in the middle of the door, and when she heard this, she pointed to the stone ring and replied: "This stone door can't be opened by external force at all, if the people of the Phantom Flower Palace know the mechanism on the door, you can open it by pressing it; ”
After speaking, Weaving Dream grabbed the knocker on the right side and knocked on the door, and then pulled Zhu'an to the side and took two steps back to stand directly in the grass, not on the stone slab. I saw a snort, and the stone bricks at the door suddenly brushed upside down, and there were all kinds of patterns on the originally smooth stone slabs, including birds and beasts, flowers and trees, and all kinds of human faces.
"This stone door is useless by brute force, either open the mechanism directly, or you can only walk the stone slab here, every time these stone slabs are triggered, the pattern will change, only by stepping on the correct stone slab can you walk safely, otherwise it will be ......"
Weaving Dream bent down and picked up a stone, injected some internal breath and threw it on one of the stone slabs, only to see that the stone brick was sunk by force, and suddenly shot a burst of poisonous needles upward, the force was so great that the stone was smashed into pieces, if someone was on it, it would definitely be shot into a hornet's nest immediately.
"I see, Defense Agency. ”
Weaving Dream smiled and nodded, "But don't worry, brother, I'll tell you the correct rules, it's very easy to get in." ”
Weaving Dream stepped lightly from the stone slab, and was already standing safely at the door, as soon as she finished, the stone bricks turned over and returned to their original state, and the stone door rumbled open a crack, and the more it opened, the bigger and bigger.
"Brother, can you write it down, come here!" Weaving Dream turned around and stood at the door, beckoning and smiling.
After reading it once, he nodded, helped Rong Lian to walk towards her, and entered the door together, and the huge stone door rumbled shut again. Zhu An was surprised and asked, "Why is it so dark......
As soon as the stone door shut, they stepped into darkness.
Suddenly, there was a knocking sound in the darkness, as if Weaving Dream had patted the wall, and the vision suddenly became very bright, and the candles on the menorah on the wall of the corridor lit up by themselves.
I saw Dream Weaver put her hand on a stone slab, and the slate sank into it a little, presumably she pressed the mechanism in the corridor.
"It's not dark now. Weaving Dream turned his head to look at Zhu'an and smiled.
Zhu'an nodded, Weaving Dream walked over quickly, and the two helped Rong Lian to walk towards the depths of the corridor together.
Zhu An suddenly remembered something and asked: "Weaving Dreams, I and Rong Gongzi suddenly came to visit the Phantom Flower Palace, will it disturb the palace people in the Phantom Flower Palace?"
Weaving Dream tilted his head and looked at him a little strangely, "Why bother, there's no one in the Phantom Flower Palace!"
"Nobody?" said Zhu An, who was very surprised.
Weaving Dream nodded, and said as a matter of course: "There are only two people in the Phantom Flower Palace from beginning to end, that is, the Palace Master of the Phantom Flower Palace and her apprentice. ”
