Chapter Ninety-Four: Up and Down the Mountain

Yuan Gang understood and knew what he meant, but after encountering trouble along the way, the journey was smooth, and he never saw the ghost again, which was somewhat strange. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Judging from the destruction of the torch storage point, it stopped halfway, and there was an overestimation on this side at that time, either the other party saw that this side cracked its means, and it was not interesting to destroy it, or it was not familiar with the back of the road, and it was not possible to find the torch storage point for a while and then destroy it, or both possibilities.

Now, if you ask about the situation in the village, even the monks dare to do it, but there are no monks in this village, but they have not been attacked, it means that the ghost has not touched this place.

In any case, one thing is certain, the ghost destroyed so many torch storage points along the way, and ran more than a little way, and its desperate intention to kill can be imagined. The other party has worked so hard, and the two sides have never fought each other, so they don't know the depth of each other's strength, so what is the reason for letting it go so easily?

The only explanation is that it is not easy to let go, but that the ghost is very careful and does not dare to act rashly when he is not sure, which also proves Niu Youdao's statement from the other side, and the ghost's strength is limited.

Soon two women came down the mountain, along with a very simple sedan chair, two poles and a chair.

As soon as Shang Shuqing was helped to get into the sedan chair, Niu Youdao suddenly said loudly: "Monkey, you accompany the county lord down the mountain first." He gave another look.

Yuan Gang knew that he was going to touch the situation in the village first.

Shang Shuqing and the others looked back when they heard the sound, and Luo An asked, "Isn't the mage going down the mountain?"

Niu Youdao: "Something." General Luo, can you borrow a guard here?" he raised his chin towards the Mao Pavilion.

Luo An said strangely: "I don't know what happened to the mage?"

Shang Shuqing knew that Niu Youdao had a habit of leaving room for others, and it was useless to ask about things that he didn't want to say, so he said loudly: "Uncle Luo, listen to the master's arrangement." ”

She spoke, and Luo An had no choice but to greet one person: "Mountain Tiger, did you hear that?"

The young man who rang the bell before nodded and said, "I heard it." ”

A group of people then hugged and carried Shang Shuqing down the mountain, and Yuan Gang packed a few packages on his back and followed him down the mountain.

Niu Youdao smiled and watched, and found that the background is different, and he still has unusual treatment when he comes to this remote mountain, and then the door is broken and a hundred times stronger than ordinary people, what is the suffering, this is the background!

"Dao Ye, do you want to clean up that sneaky guy?" Yuan Fang leaned over and asked in a low voice, he obviously saw the clue as well.

Niu Youdao said in a low voice: "I am here to retreat, I can't be disturbed, this ghost is not removed, I feel uneasy!"

"Oh!" Elements understood, and nodded.

Niu Youdao said in a low voice: "I guess the ghost didn't stop easily, and he didn't want to follow him all the way, and he wanted to wait for an opportunity to attack." Now the sun is shining, the yin and yang are separated, you shouldn't dare to come out to show up, it's dark, it's very likely to come out to explore, you go back inside now, find a place to hide, once he shows up, immediately cut off his back road, I will stay outside, will answer you. ”

Yuanfang hummed, "Understood." After that, he turned around and was about to go in, but after a pause, he turned around and said: "Dao Ye, if he doesn't do well, he will hide at the entrance, as soon as I enter, I am likely to be discovered by him, and I have a plan to avoid this." ”

Niu Youdao sighed, "Let's hear it." ”

Yuanfang muttered in his ear for a while, Niu Youdao nodded, and then turned around with him and returned to the entrance of the cave.

The torch that was unloaded before the entrance of the cave was carried by Yuan Fang alone, and Niu Youdao lit a light to lead the way, and the two deliberately spoke and made a sound, and they went back to the cave one after another, and returned to the underground river generously, put the torch back to the place point, and then returned together. Halfway up, Yuanfang's figure flashed, hidden in the horns on one side, and Niu Youdao went all the way out of the cave, extinguished the torch and threw it on the side, and walked towards the thatched pavilion.

"Mage!" the young man named Shanhu saluted and asked, "Do you have any orders?" and his eyes glanced at the entrance of the cave, as if wondering why Yuanfang had not come out.

Niu Youdao: "Are you the only one to guard it?

Shanhu: "There's nothing to do here, it's guarded by one person during the day, and someone will come to change it when it's time to eat." There are two people to accompany them at night, and they change every two hours. ”

Niu Youdao said with a smile: "I know, so let's do it, I'll help you guard it during the day today, you can go back." ”

"Ahh

Niu Youdao held the sword and pestle in his hand in front of him, put his hands on the hilt of the sword, and said very seriously: "Then I'll go to General Luo to discuss again?"

"Uh... Okay!" Shan Hu scratched his head, seemed to be a little afraid of Luo An, and turned around when he got out of the pavilion and said, "I'll bring you food when it's time to eat." ”

Niu Youdao felt the simplicity of the people here, and said with a smile: "No, if anyone has an opinion, they can ask the county lord!" In fact, it doesn't matter if his cultivation doesn't eat every two or three days, at most his physical strength is weak.

After seeing the mountain tiger who was a little puzzled go down the mountain, Niu Youdao took a good look at the surrounding mountain scenery, observed the terrain by the way, and finally sat down cross-legged in the thatched pavilion, closed his eyes and breathed. After a whole day of walking in the secret passage, I was indeed a little tired......

"Uncle Montm!"

At the foot of the mountain, a group of people greeted him, and the first gray-haired man sat in a wooden wheelchair, his face was thin and elegant, his eyes were gentle and powerful, and his whole body was neatly groomed, and it could be seen that he was a very self-disciplined and meticulous person.

Shang Shuqing, who got off the sedan chair, ran forward regardless of the pain in her feet, squatted beside her, her eyes were red, and she could see that her relationship with this person was not ordinary.

This person's name is Meng Shanming, who was originally the number one general under the command of Shang Jianbo, King Ning, and a Confucian general with both civil and military skills, but later was seriously injured in the battle of 10,000 heroes and martial guards against the enemy's 100,000 troops, and his two legs were seriously damaged, basically useless, and he could no longer stand up, which is why he was in a wheelchair. King Ning originally intended to let him enjoy the rest of his life, but he was worried about the relationship between King Ning and the court, and took the initiative to give up his glory and wealth, and brought his family to live in seclusion here.

Now, he is in charge of this secret place.

"The county lord has grown up, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay!" Meng Shanming stroked her head and sighed again and again, and her eyes were a little moist, "I received a summons from the little prince before, and I knew that the county lord was coming, and it was estimated that it would take at least two or three days to arrive, and I didn't want to arrive so soon, so I couldn't greet it in time!"

"Uncle Meng is out. Shang Shuqing shook her head, she didn't expect to arrive so quickly, thanks to Niu Youdao carrying her all the way to speed forward, the rugged journey of several days took about two days to arrive.

It's just that this thing of being carried by Niu Youdao on his back, she can't talk about it herself.

"It's been hard all the way, tired, don't squat here, go home and talk slowly. Seeing that she was uncomfortable squatting, and knowing that her feet were uncomfortable, Meng Shanming waved his hand.

The group turned around and came to a temple-like courtyard, which can also be said to be the best building in the village.

The main hall is spacious, the smell of incense is strong, and the platform behind the incense burner is full of spiritual tablets, and the names are written on it, all of which are the tablets of some deceased generals, and the cards of Ning Wang Shang Jianbo and his two sons are in the middle.

Shang Shuqing stepped forward to offer incense and worship, and then in the hall, a chair sat next to Meng Shanming, telling the experience of the two brothers and sisters after King Ning passed away, and there was nothing to hide from Meng Shanming during the conversation. The others were dismissed by Meng Shanming, and some things were not easy for too many people to know.

In fact, Meng Shanming knew the general situation, after all, he had been in contact with Lan Ruoting's side in secret letters, but some things in the secret letters were not easy to talk about in too much detail, and they were also relatively vague, and he was afraid that something would happen if the golden wings accidentally fell into the hands of others, so he naturally had to ask about it at this time.

After the two chatted for a while, Luo An walked in quickly, wanting to whisper to Meng Shanming.

Meng Shanming raised his hand and grabbed the beard on Luo An's cheek, looking at the elegant but heavy hand, Luo An "sigh".

Meng Shanming put his hand down, and smacked Luo An on the cheek with the back of his palm, "The county lord is not an outsider, what are you doing secretly? What can't you say in front of the county lord?"

Luo An rubbed his cheeks and made an embarrassment, "I didn't pay attention for a while, I forgot." "It looks like a rude man, but he is very honest in front of Meng Shanming.

Shang Shuqing pursed her lips and smiled, "It seems that Uncle Meng's martial arts have not been put down." ”

"It's crippled, it's not good. Meng Shanming smiled and waved his hand, turned back to ask Luo An, "What's the matter, let's talk about it." ”

Luo An: "The person who came with the county lord wandered around the village, and in some places, I don't know if I should stop it. ”

As soon as Shang Shuqing heard it, she knew that it was Yuan Gang.

Meng Shanming said indifferently: "The prince can let the people who come here naturally be reliable people, what is there to stop, go and inform them, don't make a misunderstanding." ”

Shang Shuqing also added, "There is really nothing to hide from him, since he is here, there are some things that can't be hidden." ”

Luo An immediately walked away quickly.

Meng Shanming's attention also focused on this stubble, "I was so excited to see the county lord that I almost forgot, I heard that Mr. Dongguo's closed disciple was here, why didn't he show up?"

Shang Shuqing's expression was slightly solemn, "I guess there is something, I have encountered some trouble in the secret passage......" She told the unexpected situation encountered in the secret passage.

Meng Shanming's expression also became solemn, "There are ghosts and ghosts living in it, if you don't get rid of it, I'm afraid it will be a little troublesome." ”

Shang Shuqing: "If I'm not mistaken, he didn't go down the mountain to solve this matter." ”

Meng Shanming: "Are you sure, do you want to send someone to cooperate?"

Shang Shuqing: "Since he has moved, he must be sure." ”

Meng Shanming said suspiciously: "I have never fought in the secret passage, I don't know the depth of the other party, why is the county lord so sure?"

Shang Shuqing: "Uncle Meng, don't you know, this closed disciple of Mr. Dongguo may not be the highest cultivation among Mr. Dongguo's disciples, but his ability is definitely the strongest. Counting, he should actually be the current head of the Shangqing Sect...... "I told Niu Youdao about being placed under house arrest in Peach Blossom Spring, how he invited Niu Youdao down the mountain, what happened in Nanshan Temple, how Niu Youdao helped Shang Chaozong marry, how he took advantage of Feng Lingbo's momentum to gain a foothold in Canglu County, and then came here as it was.
