When the lone wolf heard this, and saw that the old brother for many years had been secretly conditioned by others, he also changed his usual steadyness, and said angrily: "What, you dare not let us continue on the mountain." I don't believe it, but I want to go up and see what kind of master this is, who doesn't even take our brothers seriously. Let's go, let's catch up and learn the skills of this master. As he spoke, he chased after the mute.

The little Taoist priest even fluttered his little triangular head, and scolded with pity: "I'm X he's big, what a thing." I've only served our Hou Ye in my life, and I want to see what kind of thing this grandson is behind the scenes. Then the two of them chased after the lone wolf.

Even an honest person like Maitreya was anxious, and then said, "That's it, what the hell is this?" We haven't seen any big rivers and waves in the Nine Immortals, and we can still plant it on this fairy mountain today? Hmph, I don't believe it, let's go, go up and have a look, and see what he can do to all of us. As he spoke, he quickened his pace, followed the prodigal son and the doll, who had already rushed up, and ran quickly towards the mountain.

Xiao Qingfeng and Jingxin glanced at each other, and suddenly overtook the people in front of them with a fierce force, closely following behind the mute who was searching and tracking, vigilantly observing the situation around. At the same time, he used code words to make the Mengshan turtle and the little Taoist priest next to him pause slightly, and wait for everyone to come up and be behind the back hall in case of accidents.

Everyone chased for more than 20 minutes in one breath and arrived at the location of the black wind outlet. But along the way, due to the early time, except for a few sparse tourists, no strange people were found. After a while, I saw a few Taoists coming down from the mountain, who should be Taoist priests in the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, but the dumb man said that they were not. The dumb man also said that the Taoist priest who plotted against him just now should be a one-armed, and he vaguely remembered that the left arm of the Taoist priest was only an empty sleeve.

After a while, the mute followed the smell of the one-armed old man to the Red Gate, the most famous attraction of Fairy Mountain, the starting point of the Eighteen Pans. Go up to the eighteen plates to the top of the Fairy Mountain - the Five Princesses Peak, and now the newly rebuilt Taoist Temple Shangqing Palace is on the top of the Five Princesses Peak.

Although the eighteen plates of Fairy Mountain have only four or five hundred steps, they are far less than the more than one thousand six hundred steps of the eighteen plates of Mount Tai. However, the steepness and steepness of the eighteen plates here are more than the eighteen plates of Mount Tai. The whole journey starts from the Red Gate here, first to the One Day Gate, then to the Zhongtian Gate, and finally to the South Heavenly Gate, the threshold of the Five Princess Peaks, the highest point of the Fairy Mountain.

The first paragraph at the beginning is better, but the second paragraph is a little thrilling, but ordinary people who are brave can still go up. However, after passing the Zhongtian Gate, it was almost straight up and down, with only three or four meters wide chiseled stone steps that could only accommodate about one foot in the middle, and there were unfathomable cliffs on both sides. When you get there, a lot of people are almost out of reach. Originally, when the corresponding protection measures were not perfect, except for Taoist priests who practiced on the top of the mountain and some people who had a certain amount of real kung fu, few people dared to climb to the top from here. Most of them choose to take a detour from the location of the Red Gate to the back mountain, and climb to the top from another mountain road, but it takes about half an hour more, but that mountain road is relatively safe.

Even now, not only have the steps been widened, but two layers of railings and chains have been installed on both sides. However, at the location of Zhongtianmen, a warning sign of "dangerous area, choose to pass carefully" was set up. In addition, it is also clearly marked that it is strictly forbidden for severe patients with high blood pressure, heart disease, fear of heights, etc. Even if Xiao Qingfeng and the others had been here three times, everyone had really not reached the top from here. Because, among the nine people, Dumb and Laughing Maitreya both have a certain fear of heights, and they all chose the route to detour from the Red Gate position three times.

At the location of the red door, after waiting for everyone, everyone discussed. Xiao Qingfeng said: "From the first line of heaven to the red gate, we have carefully observed, and we have not found the one-armed Taoist that the second brother said. But the second brother's keen sense of smell told him that the trace of this strange man must have arrived here. In other words, it is now certain that this strange person should have arrived at the Shangqing Temple behind the Nantianmen above. Or the ruins of the Taoist temple of the Song Dynasty that have long been deserted. Because, on the small area of the Five Princesses Peak, only these two positions can hide their actions. In addition, this strange man seems to be deliberately luring us here, and according to his kung fu and skills, he should not escape from the back mountain. My gut tells me that he should be waiting for us somewhere up there. ”

The lone wolf said: "Yes, I was behind the hall with Ah Turtle and Tianzhu just now. I carefully inquired about the Taoist who had just descended the mountain, and one of the young Taoist priests said that it was as if he had seen a strange gray-clothed figure flying up from the Red Gate at a very fast speed. But at the time, he thought he was dazzled, so he didn't care too much. But an elderly Taoist told me that at the site of the Song Dynasty Taoist Temple in Wuzhuzhufeng, he had seen a strange gray-clothed man haunting at night. He couldn't tell what he looked like, but he had seen it once or twice in the early years. However, he said that the security on Fairy Mountain has been very good over the years, and there has never been any public security incident. He thought that it was a reclusive worldly master, so he didn't dig deeper, and the Taoist temple on the mountain naturally didn't pay attention to this matter. He also said that when the government sorted out and checked the Fairy Mountain monuments several times later, he did not find any abnormalities, and he thought that he might be old and couldn't see clearly, and slowly forgot the existence of this gray-clothed man. Now it seems that this gray-clothed man may be the one-armed Taoist we are looking for. ”

The prodigal son said: "As long as there is a trace of clues, we must also go up and take a look, and it is better to believe it than to believe it." It's a big deal to run empty, and we will be at ease. Go up, go up now, I want to see what this guy has changed, he dares to openly provoke us to be free of nine immortals. I think he is an old birthday star who hanged himself and thought he was dying for a long time, hum!" As soon as his words fell, the doll, the laughing Maitreya, the Mengshan turtle and the little Taoist priest also said that this matter must be solved today. For a while, the crowd was surging and demanded to go up resolutely.

The dumb man blushed, and said hatefully: "Yes, go up, go up and meet this one-armed Taoist who has no head and tail of the dragon." Today, when I see him, I have to have a good deal with him, to see what kind of immortal he is, and he almost broke my golden bell cover iron cloth shirt. "Probably due to his emotional agitation, the mute even forgot about his fear of heights.

Seeing everyone's emotions, Xiao Qingfeng discussed with Lone Wolf and decided to go up and find out. Everyone sorted out and checked their weapons and equipment for a while, and then climbed to the top in three batches in turn. The first batch is Xiao Qingfeng and Jingxin followed by the mute; the second batch is the Mengshan turtle and the prodigal son and the doll; and the third group is the lone wolf and the little Taoist priest and the laughing Maitreya behind the palace. During this period, the lone wolf also let Xiao Maitreya drink a few large sips of liquor to stabilize his fear of heights.

When they arrived at the top of the mountain, Xiao Qingfeng, the mute and the three of them quickly searched carefully twice in the newly built Shangqing Temple. Except for the deacon and a few tourists in the temple, no suspicious people were found. After they withdrew, they let everyone take a break and calm their emotions. Began to prepare, more than 200 meters behind the Shangqing Temple, the Song Dynasty Taoist Temple ruins have long been barren, and carefully searched.

It is said that as a military danger of the Fairy Mountain, the Taoist temple of the Song Dynasty behind it has gone through countless battles in ancient times, and it still stands tenacious. However, in the end, it was bombed by Japanese planes in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and finally disappeared and turned into ashes. Now only a few remnants of the wall and a few fragments of ancient stone tablets remain, scattered among the ruins of that year. Later, for the long-term interests of tourism development, this retro Shangqing Palace was rebuilt at the location of Nantianmen. The current Shangqing Palace, from the far mountainside, even at the foot of the mountain, you can faintly see this magnificent and splendid Taoist palace. The wise relocation and reconstruction of this Shangqing Palace has undoubtedly greatly enhanced the tourism popularity of Fairy Mountain.

Everyone began to disperse slowly, still according to the original plan, three or three combinations, each other horns, and began to search. Having just entered the deserted ruins, the mute suddenly motioned for everyone to pause their movements. He told everyone in the code that he had suddenly noticed a strong strange smell of the one-armed Taoist here. When everyone heard this, they immediately followed Xiao Qingfeng's instructions and slowly started a carpet investigation of the barren grass and shrubs more than one meter high here from three directions. After three consecutive searches, the existence of the other party was still not found. Not to mention the one-armed Taoist, even the ghost shadow didn't find half of it.

Just when everyone was at a loss and distraught, the little Taoist priest seemed to have made some major discovery. It turned out that in the middle of the ruins, after clearing the ground, a large stone block three meters square appeared, and some strange patterns were faintly engraved on the surface of the large stone. Xiao Qingfeng asked Mengshan Turtle and Jingxin to take the others to watch around, and he and the little Taoist priest carefully cleaned and checked the patterns on it again.

After the observation of the two, it was found that it was a complex combination pattern of innate gossip and purple and white nine star variables. Just when the two of them were silently pondering what the mystery of this combined pattern was, Jing Xin suddenly told everyone to pay attention to the cliff on one side in a secret language, and something seemed to flash by there just now. Everyone immediately dispersed in formation and half-surrounded the past.

Xiao Qingfeng suddenly rose from the ground and jumped to the edge of the cliff. When it fell, the five layers of innate Qi Tiangang Gong were secretly transported, and they stood on the edge of the cliff. At the location indicated by meditation, he leaned out half of his body and looked down the cliff. It turned out to be a black plastic bag that had floated from nowhere, blown by the swift mountain wind, and was now hanging on the protruding bushes below. Xiao Qingfeng smiled slightly, and floated back to the same place.

However, at this time, the little Taoist priest suddenly told him in lip language that he should have discovered the mystery of this combined pattern. It turned out that in the middle of this combined pattern, there was a more faint and almost invisible yin-yang fish pattern. On top of this faint yin-yang fish pattern, there seems to be an S-shaped subtle dark slit. In other words, this crack should be the entrance to this mechanism. In addition, he could intuitively determine that there should be an extremely deep space underneath this, but in order not to startle the snake, he did not rashly use the method of hitting the stone to listen to the sound.

Xiao Qingfeng followed his instructions, took a few serious glances, and nodded from the little Taoist. Then, hurriedly greeted everyone with gestures, and all of them evacuated to the back wall of the Shangqing Palace in the south.
