Chapter 172: Jiang Clan's Ancestral Land?
After entering the cave, Fang Kun hurriedly kept up with Jiang Xiong's pace, and at the same time, he secretly sighed in his heart, this cave was so hidden, he didn't even find it when he used his divine sense, it can be seen how well it is hidden!
In fact, he couldn't blame Fang Kun for being careless, but he found out through his divine sense, but he didn't expect that there was a cave in it, because, behind the stone slab, there were several consecutive corners, and at the same time, only one person could be allowed to pass sideways carefully, who would have thought that after walking more than ten meters inside, the cave suddenly became larger, and it was so deep inside, the two of them had been walking for almost half an hour, and Fang Kun gradually saw a glimmer of light.
By this time, he had seen beyond the end of the cave, and he couldn't help but look shocked again, but it was quickly replaced by disappointment. At this time, Jiang Xiong, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, and whispered to remind Fang Kun to pay attention to the fact that there might be an ape man ahead.
Fang Kun, who was following behind, shook his head helplessly, although he had already explored, he didn't say it explicitly, but continued to follow behind the other party, slowly moving towards the entrance of the cave.
The entrance to the cave was still blocked by a huge stone, except for a small hole on the side, revealing a slight light.
After a while, Jiang Xiong relaxed, and after saying to Fang Kun that he was okay, he drilled out of the small hole, and at the same time, opened the vines that covered the hole.
Fang Kun followed closely behind and went out, although he had already probed, he was still shocked by the environment here.
This is a col surrounded by mountains, but it is very hidden, because the surrounding mountains are very steep, and this col is halfway up several large mountains, and two of the peaks are actually inclined to the top of the col, so there is basically no sunlight in the col, but it is not dim.
The most important thing is that Fang Kun felt the rich Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi here, as well as the aura that was a little richer than what he had felt before, but unfortunately, in this mountain col with an area of two or three acres, although there were many treasure medicines, there was no elixir.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but show a trace of regret on his face, which happened to be seen by Jiang Xiong.
"Brother Fang, what's the matter, isn't there the treasure medicine you want here?" Jiang Xiong asked suspiciously.
The reason for this question is because there are dozens of varieties of treasure medicines here, and in total, there are at least hundreds of them, but unfortunately, there are not many of them that are fully mature, but only a dozen or so.
"Brother Jiang misunderstood, there are treasures and medicines I need, but none of them are ripe, and if I pick them now, they will be wasted!" Fang Kun said helplessly.
"Oh, since that's the case, Brother Fang, don't worry, this place, except for you and me, outsiders can't find it, because this place can come in except from the cave just now, that is, the apes can come and go freely! Brother Fang waited patiently for a while, according to my experience, the treasure medicine here grows much faster than the outside world, and more than a dozen treasure pills will mature every year!"
Fang Kun suddenly became interested, and hurriedly asked, "Why can't others find out here?"
"Haha, Brother Fang, if you don't believe it, you can climb a few surrounding peaks and have a look when you go out, and you'll know the reason!" Jiang Xiong finished speaking, and showed a smug smile.
"Then how did Brother Jiang discover this treasure land?" Fang Kun asked suspiciously.
"This is not what I discovered, but what my ancestors discovered, and only every head of the family can know this secret, and in my generation, although the qualifications are dull, only I can know it!" Speaking of this, Jiang Xiong's mood was a little low.
When Fang Kun saw the other party's expression, he couldn't continue to ask, so he could only pat the other party's shoulder helplessly, and then thought about walking away.
Jiang Xiong quickly adjusted his mood, and then began to carefully collect the treasure medicine, judging from his skillful movements, it is indeed as he said, he should be very experienced, in the process of collecting, even a single medicine whisker can not bear to break. Therefore, although his movements were skillful, the speed of collection was very slow, and when Fang Kun had collected all the three Peiyuan Dan auxiliaries, he had only collected one plant.
After Fang Kun put the three treasure pills into his jade box, he sat cross-legged next to him, patiently waiting for Jiang Xiong.
Jiang Xiong naturally saw this scene, but he was very strange, why did Fang Kun only accept three plants, there were obviously nearly ten fully mature treasure pills here, why didn't the other party continue to collect them?
Although he was puzzled in his heart, he didn't ask it, so he admired Fang Kun even more, and at the same time, he was glad that he had retained Fang Kun before, if he brought it here, not only would he take away more than a dozen mature treasure medicines, but even those that were not yet ripe would probably not be able to escape the fate of being taken away.
Thinking of this, he felt a little more firm in his heart again, and at the same time, he no longer had the slightest hesitation about the decision he had secretly made before!
After more than an hour, Jiang Xiong collected all the remaining ripe treasure medicines, and just as Fang Kun was about to get up and leave, Jiang Xiong suddenly put down his backpack, and then took out some sacrificial items from the bag, mainly incense and candles, ignoring Fang Kun, only to see him go straight to a boulder in the distance.
Fang Kun looked at this scene in surprise, but he didn't open his mouth to interrupt the other party.
I saw Jiang Xiong sweep out a clean piece of ground in front of the boulder, then put the bag of fruit on it, and then lit the incense candle and inserted it on the ground.
Fang Kun was a little clear in his heart, but he still had some doubts, but the scene that happened next made him completely relieved.
I saw that after Jiang Xiong inserted the incense candle, he took two steps back, folded his hands, knelt on the ground, and chanted words in his mouth.
Although Jiang Xiong's voice was very small, and the two were separated by more than twenty meters, Fang Kun still heard the words in Jiang Xiong's mouth clearly, which roughly meant: Unworthy descendants, for the continuation of the Jiang family, they violated the ancestors' teachings, please forgive the ancestors and so on.
Hearing this, Fang Kun sighed in his heart, then withdrew his divine sense, and stopped eavesdropping, the other party was worshipping ancestors in this place, presumably this was an important treasure of the Jiang family, and it had a long history, even, he suspected that this was very good as the ancestral land of the Jiang family, otherwise the stone cave behind him could not be explained, because the stone cave seemed to be naturally formed, but Fang Kun saw some traces of artificial excavation from it, but because the time was too long, those traces were basically gone.
Just when Fang Kun fell into deep thought, Jiang Xiong had stopped whispering and began to bow respectfully, his kneeling posture was very strange, and it was not enough to describe his piety with five bodies, Fang Kun estimated that the other party used the oldest way of kneeling, which is estimated to be one of the customs inherited by the Jiang family.
After nine consecutive bows, Jiang Xiong stopped, and after waiting for a while, he confirmed that the incense candle would not ignite the dry grass and dead leaves next to him, and then he turned around and walked back.
"See it, this is the ancestor's testament, every time you come here, no matter whether you can get the treasure medicine or not, you must pay respects!" Jiang Xiong smiled a little embarrassedly.
"Brother Jiang smiled, shall we go out now?" Fang Kun directly changed the topic.
"Well, get out now, you should be able to get out of the no-man's land before dark!" Jiang Xiong said directly.
Immediately, the two of them stopped staying, and after carrying their backpacks, they went into the stone cave.
Due to Jiang Xiong's companionship, Fang Kun's speed slowed down a lot, but fortunately, Jiang Xiong did not return according to the original path, but directly took a shortcut, almost a straight line, straight out, when it was about to get dark, the two of them had already walked out of the no-man's land, and then did not stay, and went straight to Zhaojia Town.
When they returned to Zhaojia Town, the two found a restaurant, and during dinner, Jiang Xiong invited Fang Kun to his residence again for a few days, this time Fang Kun did not refuse, and agreed directly, and after eating, the two came to the parking lot.
When Jiang Xiong saw Fang Kun's red flag car, he frowned slightly, as if he had some impressions, Fang Kun's heart moved, but he didn't say anything, he wanted to wait for the other party to speak first, but until he drove away from the parking lot, Jiang Xiong didn't ask in the end, Fang Kun could only give up.
