(If you think it's good, please ask a friend to vote!, the book review must be refined)
Mu Qingmei was already stunned, and Yun Ke's voice repeatedly sounded in his head: "You are not qualified... You're not qualified..."
But I heard Yun Ke continue: "Last time, my brother also said that he liked you, but he wouldn't accept you. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info is because the contrast between you and the front and back is too great. He is now becoming more capable, but at least his appearance has not changed, why did you dislike him so much before, but now you say you like him?
The ability to like a man is more advanced than liking a man's money, but in the final analysis, the essence is the same, and they all belong to the category of snobbish people. It's just that the former is more deceptive.
If he suddenly loses his ability again and is as mediocre as before, I believe that Sister Xiaowan will not leave him. But I'm skeptical that you're going to do that. He can't tell what you like about him, how can someone like him accept you with just a word?"
Mu Qingmei's face was already pale, was Yun Ke wrong? Why didn't he even have the strength to refute at all? Is he really a snob, a chameleon? If this is the case, how much higher can he be than disliking the poor and loving the rich? If he becomes the same as before, will he still like him?
Seeing Mu Qingmei's dejected appearance, Yun Ke knew that he was not wrong. The more she didn't refute, the more Yun Ke didn't have a good impression of her.
"Sister Xiaowan said something to me, saying that she can not want my brother's life. If not, then please don't be upset with her. ”
After saying that, Yun Ke turned around and walked away, leaving Mu Qingmei to stand in place. After a long time, he muttered to the night sky, "Yunke, you are wrong. ”
Early the next morning, Yun Ke and Jing Xiaowan found that Mu Qingmei was missing, and after looking for a long time, they finally determined that she had gone out of the mountain alone. Yun Rui had left a mark in the wood and stone formation before, and it was not difficult for her to find out.
"What should we do, Sister Xiaowan, are we going out too?" Yun Ke regretted saying that to Mu Qingmei last night and made her angry.
"We don't want to go out, we can't help him when we go back but make trouble for him. Jing Xiaowan shook her head and said.
"Just go, I don't like her. "She didn't give me any gifts. ”
......
Two days later, Yun Rui and the others finally crossed the turbulent Qutang Gorge, with strange peaks and cliffs on both sides, the cliff bank is towering, the river is surging, and the river wind hunts, which is really picturesque.
Jiang Xiuxin is now admired by Yun Rui, driving the boat for two days, but still sitting firmly in the driver's seat, and she has not said a word, and those who don't know think she is dumb.
It may be that she is more tired, so the injury on her face has not subsided, and Jiang Tu said that she was beaten like a pig's head, which is really not an exaggeration.
At noon, Jiang Bancheng personally drove the boat, searched carefully along the river, and spent half an hour before finding a rock crack that only allowed one person to pass through, and said, "Enter through this rock crack." ”
Yun Rui saw that half of the rock crack was in the water, and he didn't know how deep it was, and he couldn't help but sigh that Danzhu Mountain Palace was really good at finding a place. If Jiang Bancheng hadn't brought him here, he wouldn't have been able to find this rock crack even if he searched all over the world.
Jiang Bancheng's body flicked, and he was the first to enter the rock crevice, and then Yun Rui and the others entered, and as for the boat, they hung the anchor into the rock crevice and fixed it.
In the crevices of the rocks, you can only step on both sides to walk forward, because there is a bottomless river below. Fortunately, everyone is a martial artist, so it is not difficult to go this way.
"From this crevice you can reach a valley, and you can walk in the mountains for several days. Jiang Bancheng said as he walked.
The crevice walked more than a mile, and finally meandered upward, and walked for a while before breaking out of the mountain and into a valley. In the middle of the valley is a small path, with towering mountains on both sides.
Yun Ruida found that the mountains here are completely different from the forest world, the forest world only has primeval forests, and there are few tall peaks, but here are mountains and mountains, thousands of peaks are showing, and the terrain is very similar to that on Cuimo. What he didn't know was that Cuimo Mountain in Jing Xiaowan's hometown originally belonged to the category of 100,000 mountains.
After two days of walking through the mountains, I came to a stone temple surrounded by weeds. Yunrui is a little strange, such a desolate place is not inhabited for hundreds of miles, how can there be a stone temple.
"Brother Yun, below this stone temple, there is an underground dark river, this dark river is connected to the Yangtze River, under normal circumstances, the water is only a foot deep, and you have to walk dozens of miles in it to find Danzhu Mountain Palace. Jiang Bancheng explained.
"These thieves are really rats, and the place where they live is so hidden, it's almost the same as the Dark Sect. Li Beiyue said.
Yun Rui asked, "Is there no other way?" Jiang Bancheng shook his head, "Maybe there is, but I only know this." ”
There is a dark board inside the stone temple, and after opening it, a damp water vapor suddenly rushes to the face, Jiang Bancheng immediately smiled bitterly when he saw it, and said: "Oops, the water of the dark river is too deep, and this waterway can't be walked." ”
Yun Rui and the others also took a look, there is a step below leading to the river, the dark river is only a few zhang wide, but the water level is about to submerge the steps, at least more than one zhang deep. Jiang Bancheng said that this dark river is dozens of miles long, and now it is so deep, it is simply unrealistic to take this road again.
Yun Rui looked at it and asked, "When will this water recede?"
Jiang Bancheng said: "The Yangtze River is now in the early winter flood season, and the water will not recede for three or five days. I used to go in and out of it, and I remember that the direction of the dark river was southeast, and the distance in a straight line was about thirty or forty miles. We're either going straight southeast from here, or we're going to wait here for a few days. ”
Yun Rui thought about it and decided to go directly to the southeast, and when he approached the Danzhu Mountain Palace, Jiang Bancheng would definitely be able to find it.
After a few discussions, they decided to go directly to the southeast, and it was a big deal to cross the mountains and rivers when they met the water.
But after climbing a few mountains, Yunrui found a path paved with stone slabs in a col, hidden in the grass. After he brushed the grass away, he found that it was a very wide bluestone road, at least it could run a car. And look at this road is very ancient, it should have existed thousands of years ago.
How could there be such a road in such a place? Yun Rui looked along the road and immediately judged that the original route of this road led to several peaks in the distance, and those peaks were very different from the other peaks, not tall, but more lush, which seemed a little strange in this season.
Others are a little weird. Jiang Bancheng groaned and said, "This road should have been not small before, but now no one has walked for many years. I don't know who repaired it. In the 100,000 mountains, there are some ancient villages, could it be that they were built by the Yi people?"
Yun Rui's curiosity began to flare up again, and he said, "Why don't we go and take a look, maybe we can find something, maybe we can find a way to Danzhu Mountain Palace." ”
Everyone did not object, especially Jiang Tu, who was very interested.
This time it was Yunrui who took the lead, and he had the sense to spot the pavement under the grass. After walking a few miles along the foot of the mountain, Yun Rui suddenly stopped, and he found the stone statues on both sides of the road, which had fallen into the grass and were covered with moss.
With Yun Rui's gaze, everyone also found the stone statue. Jiang Tu walked over and immediately said, "It's Shi Zhongweng! Isn't it a stockade inside, it's a large ancient tomb?"
Such a road, such a stone statue, an ancient village obviously will not have, it may really be an ancient tomb, and it is also a prince's tomb. Suddenly, face Yunrui was also a little excited, looking for secrets, no one didn't like it.
Sure enough, stone men and stone beasts appeared in front, which indicated that there was a possibility that there was a large tomb nearby. But suddenly, Jiang Bancheng said: "No, this place should not be built for the ancient tomb." ”
"Oh, what did Brother Jiang discover?" For these, he obviously didn't have the old Jiang Bancheng old way.
"Yes, this won't be a tomb. At least not mainly ancient tombs. Li Beiyue also said with certainty.
Jiang Bancheng pointed to the stone beast and said, "This beast is called 'Lao Shi', and legend has it that he is also the son of the Dragon King. As the saying goes, dragons give birth to nine sons, and the nine sons are more or less like dragon kings. But in fact, there is a tenth son, and this son is the 'Old Ten', but it is said that because it is not a little like the Dragon King, it is considered an illegitimate child by the Dragon King, and he does not admit that it is his own..."
This glance was immediately discovered by Jiang Xiuxin, and her swollen face suddenly became even more ugly. Yun Rui also found out, and remembered the reason why Jiang Bancheng told him that his sister killed his sister-in-law, and his heart suddenly brightened.
Jiang Bancheng paused and continued: "Lao Shi was dissatisfied, and when he saw that the nine elder brothers were all working for the Yellow Emperor, he went to work for Chi You and specifically opposed his brothers. Lao Shi's biggest ability is to swallow longevity, and the enemy's life can be reduced by ten years by a glance at him. It is generally not used near ancient tombs. ”
"Yes, this is Lao Shi, also known as Swallow Shou. Southern Baiyi used it to defend the walled city, which should be an ancient city. Li Beiyue also said.
Is there an ancient city between these mountains? Everyone who heard it was very suspicious, except for Yun Rui, he had seen Forest City.
After walking for a while, turning a mountain pass, Yun Rui saw a collapsed stone wall in the mountain pass, and immediately determined that this was really an ancient city in the mountains.
Yun Rui walked in first, and inside the mountain pass was a basin, surrounded by mountains. There are at least hundreds of dilapidated wooden buildings standing quietly in the setting sun, and many more have collapsed. An incomparably desolate and silent aura permeated the space.
"Really an old walled city. Everyone looked at each other and said.
Everyone cautiously walked into the ancient city, and they could vaguely see the streets and alleys, and the wooden buildings that had not collapsed were as dead and silent as haunted houses. It was covered with dust, and the porch was overgrown with weeds and shrubs. As for the fallen, all that remained were piles of rotting wood and stones.
Yun Rui said while looking at it: "This building has been abandoned for at least five hundred years, if it weren't for the fact that it was in the basin and the wind was very small, there would have been no one left. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly looked at the front and said, "This building is so big, and there is a square." Well, there are also two 'old ten' statues. ”
