It's cool on the mountain Chapter 18 The second is to open the gate of heaven

The torch was lit, Zhang Mingjun asked someone to lift one and put it at the entrance of the cave, and a breeze blew out from the cave, and the flame on the torch kept swaying in the hole.

"Throw another one in. Zhang Mingjun pulled Mu Sanqian in front with one hand, and asked someone to throw a torch into the cave.

After a little thought, An Dushan knew Zhang Mingjun's intentions. The torch can be seen swaying at the entrance of the cave, indicating that the ventilation of the whole cave is good, and then asking someone to throw a torch into it is to test the composition of the gas circulating inside, many cave tombs are old, the gas accumulated inside touches the fire, once the explosion is a hundred times more powerful than a firearm, and a group of people have to be buried underneath if they are unlucky.

Andu Mountain motioned for Yuan Xiang to throw this one.

In addition to the amazing combat power of the iron cavalry, the Anzi Battalion in Xihe Prefecture is also known for being good at throwing.

Anzi Camp is a pro-army of Andu Mountain, so it naturally has its own pride. Compared with the horse battle, the grassland iron cavalry can not distinguish between victory and defeat, compared to the foot battle, the Central Plains foot soldiers are all juniors, everyone in the Anzi camp can open two hundred stone hard bows, and everyone can dance seventy catties of iron spears.

It is a necessary condition to open the bow and dance the spear with solid arm strength, the Anzi battalion once attacked the city in the old Tang Dynasty, and the bow and arrow were exhausted for several days, and the catapult was damaged, An Chunqiu ordered all the staff to throw the spear, and thousands of iron spears forced the city wall into a hedgehog.

Since then, throwing has been fixed as a military subject, and the spectacular scene of thousands of people throwing iron spears before the Anzi battalion attacks the enemy is also famous.

Yuan Xiang was sent to Anzi Camp to polish his life for two years before following Andu Mountain, and his arm strength was naturally good, so Andu Mountain asked Yuan Xiang to throw the torch.

When the torch was thrown out by Yuan Xiang, it was like an arrow coming out of the string, dragging the tail of the fire light through the darkness and rushing into the cave.

It was only after a while that I heard the sound of torches falling to the ground.

After the sound, the cave was still as quiet as ever.

"Let's go inside. ”

After confirming that it was correct, Zhang Mingjun let everyone enter the cave in turn.

"Who would have thought that there would be such a magnificent scene in the hinterland of this Piluo Mountain, if it weren't for Zhang Zhenren to guide the way, I'm afraid we would still be wandering around outside the mountain at this time. ”

The walls of the cave are flat, and the entrance to the tunnel is extremely wide, and the narrowest part is three people high. After walking in for a while, I found that there were stalactites hanging down on the top of the cave head, and the firelight was shining one after another, and the scene in the cave was full of colors like a dream.

Zhao Dijia is obsessed with feng shui, and he is in a very good mood to enter the dragon cave smoothly today, and he can't remember every place in his mind while going around carefully, and at the same time praising Zhang Mingjun's Taoism, if there is no Zhang Zhenren to guide the way, I am afraid that he will not be able to come to this celestial holy land in his life.

"Master, master, this is the Dragon Cave, do you mean that we are in the Dragon's Lair now? ”

Led by Zhang Mingjun and walking in front, Mu Sanqian did not feel terrible about the pitch-black cave, but was very curious.

"There was a dragon flying in the sky a hundred years ago, and the spirit objectified dragon lived here before, so you say that it is a dragon's nest, as for the tomb, after the spirit materialized dragon, the body will be washed and reborn, and the old body will naturally remain in the cave, if the cave collapses in the future, it is equivalent to becoming a tomb for burial. ”

"Amitabha Buddha Amitayus Buddha, there are gods three feet above his head, don't be strange and don't be weird. ”

Mu Sanqian coughed twice and muttered for a while.

"Then master, let's come in now, for the sake of turning into a dragon, doesn't it mean that there is a big dragon that is about to fly to the sky?"

"It's true that there are spiritual things that want to ascend, but whether they can go to heaven or not depends on their creation and energy. Just like us who practice martial arts, there is also a realm distinction between externalized spiritual objects, and the dragon celestial phenomenon is equivalent to breaking the realm, if the foundation is not real or disturbed, it may fail to break the realm, and there will even be a danger of the realm falling. ”

"When people are breaking through the border, let's still come to visit, is it a disturbance?"

"Count. ”

Zhang Mingjun nodded affirmatively, and then said.

"But not everyone who comes in will have the opportunity to witness the dragon celestial phenomenon, and it must be a chance. ”

"What kind of chance?"

"You'll know when the time comes. ”

There are three steps and one fork in the dragon cave, and five steps and one turn, and the inside is even more complicated than the maze.

Fortunately, there are Zhang Mingjun and Zhao Dijia, one of the two is good at observing qi and the other is good at measuring shapes, and the group has no danger along the way, and soon reached the deepest part of the Dragon Cave.

"That little girl from Northern Xinjiang who is dressed as a man is surnamed Long, didn't we come to her relative's house. ”

Song Zhiming rarely didn't talk much after entering the cave, but when the speed of the group slowed down, he suddenly said something.

"Her cultivation is not below you and me, if she hears your slander and comes to teach you a lesson, this should not be counted as the obligation of the alliance. ”

After speaking, Donghuang Taiyi squatted down and picked up a little dirt with his hand and looked at it in his hand.

"It's deep in the cavern, but the dirt is a little too wet. ”

"Ahh

Mu Sanqian in front suddenly shouted.

"What's wrong, it's okay!"

An Dushan hurriedly turned around and ran over to see if his grandson was injured, and he was extremely nervous.

"It's okay, it's like stepping into the water and getting your shoes wet. ”

Stepping into the water?

Yuan Xiang held a torch and shone it over, and sure enough, there was a puddle of water on the ground, and Mu Sanqian's left foot stepped into it, and his shoes were already soaked.

"Dragons are watery, we're almost there. ”

Zhang Mingjun pinched his fingers and calculated, and then said to An Dushan.

And here it is?

At this time, Song Zhiming Donghuang Taiyi Long Shu Tuoba Shaohao and Tuoba Shaohao's master Helian Weiwu had already squeezed to the front, and more than half of the more than 100 light horsemen who followed Andu Mountain were guarding outside the cave, and only more than 30 people followed.

When they came to them, they hesitated, and looked at each other and didn't know how to advance or retreat.

After all, there are spirit beasts turning into dragons here, and it would be pure deception to say that there is no danger at all. The dragon cave is hidden in front of you, temptation is temptation, but extremely dangerous things are still rarely done.

"Let's lead the way. ”

Zhang Mingjun showed the demeanor of his predecessors at this moment, and walked to the front of the crowd with a smile and Mu Sanqian. Andu Mountain is side by side, and his own grandchildren are standing in front, so what does it take to say. I walked forward for a while, and at the end of the front, I could clearly see the faint light of green.

At this moment, I don't know how to be underground, there is silence in all directions, except for the sound of footsteps, the sound of clothes and belts, and the sound of slight breathing, it is as strange as slowly stepping into the hell of Shura.

Coupled with the sudden appearance of the green light, it aggravated the inexplicable tense atmosphere.

"Those green lights should be a phenomenon of phosphide and air reaction, and cultivation alchemy pills can often be encountered, right?"

Song Zhiming suddenly said in the silence.

"Are you Qiyuan all cowardly as a mouse, who doesn't know phosphorus fire here, and they still need you to talk more. ”

Tuoba Shaohao was taken aback by Song Zhiming's sudden voice, and he was extremely dissatisfied with his sarcastic remarks.

"Hehe, your tiger and wolf division on the grassland will be frightened by one of my little Qiyuan mice, it seems that you are very bold. ”

Song Zhiming was teased by Mu Sanqian's digging pit and laughed at it, but it was different for Tuoba Shaohao, and he immediately opened his mouth to fight back, without letting Tuoba Shaohao take advantage of it at all.

"Shut up, when did you start to take a fancy to lip service?"

Long Shu criticized Tuoba Shaohao in one sentence, and secretly ridiculed Song Zhiming. However, Song Zhiming knew Long Shu's identity as a woman, so he smiled happily and didn't care.

Turning around the corner, the light gradually brightened, and the scene was even more surprising in the eyes of everyone.

The end of the cave suddenly opened up, and the road under the feet that could not be said to be flat extended to form a jumping platform, and the bottom of the stage turned out to be a pool of water with a glowing green light, and what was even more amazing was that it was just above the water surface, and above everyone's heads, it was also a sparkling and quiet water surface, which seemed to be exactly the same as the piece under the feet except for the upside down.

The crowd was amazed by this wonderful scene.

"Master, is the dragon that is going to heaven in the water under our feet? But the water seems to be a little shallower, and the sand and gravel at the bottom of the water are clearly visible. ”

Mu Sanqian's words woke everyone up, and they all just looked up at the water hanging on the top of the cave, but they forgot that they were still in the deepest part of the dragon cave, and there was no way to go to the north and south except for retreating.

"If there is a real dragon, how can you be trapped in the shallows, for the teacher to teach you a truth today. This truth is just on paper, and I finally feel shallow, and I have to bow a few words to know this matter. Zhang Mingjun said with a smile and gently took half a step back.

"Master, what do you mean?"

"Just go and see for yourself. ”

After Zhang Mingjun finished speaking, he picked up a kick without warning and kicked Mu Sanqian directly. The force was not great, but it happened suddenly, Mu Sanqian really jumped, and fell down with a wail.

"Bullnose, what are you doing!"

An Dushan didn't expect Zhang Mingjun to come out like this suddenly, but it was his own grandson who was kicked down.

"Don't be impatient, don't be impatient, look down, your good grandson is safe and sound. ”

Mu Sanqian fell down without any sound of falling into the water. The others also craned their necks to look into the water.

"Huh, what about people, I saw it fall just now, why didn't I even make a move!"

Song Zhiming watched from the sidelines, Mu Sanqian was indeed kicked down, yes, why did he disappear out of thin air? Mu Sanqian felt even more innocent, teaching reason and teaching reason, who had ever seen someone who taught reason with his feet? Naturally he was frightened when he was defenseless. However, falling into the water did not feel as cold and wet as expected, and the moment it touched the surface of the water was more like falling into a pile of cotton, soft and warm.

"Master, master, it turns out that this is not water!" Mu Sanqian stood up and turned around and shouted at the stone platform. But when the words came to his mouth, Mu Sanqian swallowed it back raw, and the stone platform over there was empty!

"Master!"

Mu Sanqian shouted twice, and only echoes came back from the emptiness around him.

"It's over, it's over, hell is it!"

Mu Sanqian raised his legs and walked a few steps, but found that there was something wrong on the water surface that had just reached his calf. So Mu Sanqian hurriedly stopped, and after the water calmed down, Mu Sanqian directly said, "What is the situation with his uncle?!" blurted out.

The images of my grandfather and others were clearly reflected on the water, as if they were seen from a bronze mirror, but what was behind me was indeed empty.

"Master, I'm here, I'm here, Master!"

Mu Sanqian waved and shouted at the reflection of the master on the water, looking like he had lost his mind.

"Look up there!"

Someone looked up and found that the reflection reflected on the water above his head was Mu Sanqian, who had just fallen, and he was still waving and shouting at this side. The crowd looked up.

"If there is a reflection on the water above our heads, it should be all of us, but just now the little real person disappeared out of thin air after falling, and actually appeared in the water surface above, which looks like two worlds through a mirror. Could it be—"

Song Zhiming was full of thoughts, and took the lead in thinking of the most likely situation. Although they are already in the hinterland of Piluo Mountain at this moment, the two water surfaces in front of them are probably the real entrances to the Dragon Cave! I will jump too! Thinking about this section, Song Zhiming jumped down without hesitation, followed by the Eastern Emperor Taiyi Long Shu Tuoba Shaohao Andu Mountain Zhao Dijia, and fell into the water one after another.

Zhang Mingjun laughed at this lively scene.

The sound of falling water and clattering instantly shook the entire grotto. A total of more than a dozen people jumped down, and when they stood up, they found themselves soaking wet, but they still saw Zhang Mingjun smiling on the stone platform.

"Only the two of us came in?"

Song Zhiming looked at the Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Long Shu beside him, and then looked at the other people on the water who were soaking wet and a little funny.

"It's not obvious. ”

Long Shu glanced at Song Zhiming like an idiot, and then walked straight to the stone platform.

"Hey, wait, let's come together, walk together, we can take care of everything!"

Tuoba Shaohao on the other side watched Long Shu and the four of them disappear into the stone platform, but he was helpless, so he could only smash the water surface that wet him viciously. "What's going on?" Andushan jumped up and jumped onto the stone platform, despite his clothes.

"The moon in the mirror, the flowers in the water, the celestial creation is of course not everyone is destined to see, the upper and lower two water surfaces are not only the real entrance to the dragon cave, but also a natural barrier, some people can enter, some people can not enter. ”

"Like Song Zhiming, Donghuang Taiyi and Long Shu are all people who have martial arts cultivation as their side, if my grandson enters the Dragon Cave alone and does not have the ability to protect himself in danger, will Zhang Zhenren's move be too reckless. ”

"Dunhuang is still the territory of Prince An, and the iron cavalry of Xihe Prefecture is still under the orders of General An, if Song Zhiming Donghuang Taiyi and Long Shu want to leave Xihe Prefecture alive, they will definitely not be stupid enough to ignore Mu Sanqian. I believe that the three thousand in it must have a good life for any of them. ”

"I hope so. ”

There was no point in waiting in the cave, so they all slowly withdrew and set up camp at the entrance, quietly waiting for news from inside.
