Chapter 0244: The Stone Gate That Can't Be Seen

The height of Shuiquan Peak and Yunshui Peak is almost the same, but the terrain of Shuiquan Peak is obviously more precipitous, and there are cliffs on three sides, only one side is connected to Yunshui Peak, which is a lonely peak standing proudly among the clouds.

Zhao Bufan, Zhu Lian and others traveled west along the path, and it didn't take too long to climb Shuiquan Peak.

I thought that in such an inaccessible place, the road would be rough and difficult, or even there was no clear road at all, but in fact, on the contrary, there was not only a road at the top of this water spring, but also a wide winding stone road.

Of course, this is not artificial, at least Zhao Bufan and others can not find traces of construction, no matter how you look at it, it is a natural formation, and the entire circle at the top of the peak is a corridor formed by this kind of mountain stone, or it can also be said to be a terrace.

The group was amazed and walked around the southern half of the terrace, and soon came to the west of Shuiquan Peak.

The broken chain bridge, the impenetrable abyss, the familiar cliff on the mountain peak opposite the abyss......

All this made Cheng Zheng smile.

"Big farmer, it seems that we have found the right one!"

"Yes! Find the right one!" Zhao Bufan seemed to be smiling, looking at the clouds and mist in the distance, and asked leisurely: "The problem is Wanhualou?"

Xie Wufeng also looked at Cheng Zheng expressionlessly: "Yes, what about Wanhualou?"

"How do I know!" Cheng Zheng's eyes widened slightly, obviously stunned by the two of them, and he hesitated for a while before he hesitated: "Otherwise, the entrance and exit of Wanhualou is on the northern half of this Shuiquan Peak?"

"Then let's go through it again!"

Zhao Bufan took the words, and walked along this naturally formed mountain and stone corridor to the other side of the mountain peak, and everyone followed closely, all of them carefully and carefully.

But they didn't expect to go around half a circle like this, and they actually returned to the path they had walked on earlier, and going back along this path was equivalent to returning to Yunshui Peak.

A few people paused, you look at me, I look at you, no one can figure out what is going on.

Cheng Zheng pondered for a long time, and couldn't help but ask: "Could it be that Wanhualou is not in Shuiquan Peak at all, and Zhou Yuanwai took us over to walk the Huangquan Bridge the night before yesterday, and he just wanted to kill us through the Huangquan Bridge?"

"It's impossible, he fell into a coma when he was captured by you, how can he contact the people of Wanhualou to break the bridge?

Zhao Bufan waved his hand, thinking and continued: "Zhou Yuanwai must have taken us to find Wanhualou, he knows very well the consequences of not arriving at the destination, even if he has any ideas, it is after finding Wanhualou, not on that bridge, otherwise he must not have behaved like that when he crossed the bridge the night before, there is an abyss under the Huangquan Bridge, and top masters like you and me dare not have the slightest carelessness, where did he have the guts?"

Zhu Lianxiu next to her frowned, and unconsciously held the black hair hanging down to her chest with both hands: "That's right, Zhou Yuanwai has no way to communicate with Wanhualou, he doesn't dare to mess around at Huangquan Bridge, and Wanhualou should be worried that Zhou Yuanwai will recruit Wanhualou after learning that Zhou Yuanwai was kidnapped, so he waited by the bridge to break the bridge, and wanted to catch us all." ”

"Could it be that Wanhualou is not in Shuiquan Peak at all, and is just passing by here?" Xie Wufeng suddenly interjected.

Cheng Zheng immediately shook his head: "It shouldn't be, this Shuiquan Peak can only lead to Yunshui Peak, and it must pass through Yunshui Dao Temple, instead of taking such a detour to Huangquan Bridge, why should they go directly to Yunshui Peak? Anyway, they always have to go through Yunshui Temple, why go so far?"

"Yunshui View?"

Suddenly, the eyes of the four lit up almost at the same time, and they glanced at each other.

Cheng Zheng was stunned: "Could it be ......?"

Xie Wufeng nodded: "I think nine times out of ten, they are in Yunshui Temple, this is the only truth that makes sense, the reason why they took such a long detour is probably just to hide people's eyes and ears, and quietly lead to Yunshui Temple from here, which can be described as unaware." ”

Zhu Lian seemed to think of something, frowned and continued: "If it is in Yunshuiguan, why did Zhou Yuanwai take us so far? Judging from his tone and demeanor, he obviously knows where the specific location of Wanhualou is, so why not go directly to Yunshuiguan? Not to mention that Yunshuiguan has a history of hundreds of years, where did Wanhualou exist for so long? The most important point is that if Yunshuiguan wants to trade the necessary materials, can't he just buy them directly? What are you doing secretly? Who would doubt that the Taoist temple with strong incense is adding shopping materials?"

"That makes sense!" Zhao Bufan nodded and answered: "Yunshuiguan incense is vigorous, and people from all over the world come to worship and pray for blessings all year round, but it can be said that there are many people talking, how can Wanhualou ensure that the slightest rumor is not leaked? There are so many Taoist priests and foreign Qing cultivators in the Taoist temple, how can they carry out secret activities? If those Taoist priests are the killers of Wanhualou, one or two may be fine, but hundreds of people sit and cultivate the Tao every day? Accompany others to preach the Dharma?"

Everyone fell silent, obviously agreeing with Zhao Bufan's views and resorting the clues in their minds.

Suddenly, Cheng Zheng's eyes lit up, and he turned to look at the steep mountain wall behind him.

"Do you think Wanhualou will be in this mountain wall?"

Everyone reacted instantly.

Zhu Lian's eyes were full of joy, and he said urgently: "There are many huge rocks on the top of this Shuiquan Peak, and the structure is stable, which can completely hollow out part of the mountain and create a huge palace like a cave, so that it is equivalent to having a natural barrier, and then use the Yunshui View in the east as a cover, and at the same time create rumors of haunting, and monopolize the Huangquan Bridge in the west, which can be described as seamless." ”

Zhao Bufan asked: "What about the entrance and exit? Where is the entrance and exit? We go around this mountain peak for a whole circle, and there is no gate at all, can they penetrate the wall?"

"You may not have the wall-piercing technique, but you can do it. Cheng Cheng smiled and waited for Zhao Bufan's eyes to look at him, and then smiled and pointed to the steep mountain stone wall: "When I was a child, my subordinates once followed my father to see the heirs of Lubanmen who lived in seclusion, and I saw with my own eyes a large stone gate made by mechanism, when the stone door was closed, it was completely an ordinary stone wall, and as long as the mechanism was played, the stone door could be opened, and the stone cave created by this mechanism could even achieve natural ventilation, but nothing could be seen outside." ”

Zhao Bufan was a little surprised, walked lightly to the side of the stone wall and touched it, then knocked again, and finally turned back with a wry smile: "This is troublesome, none of us know how to do it, what should we do? Who can see where the gate is?"

Xie Wufeng and Cheng Zheng looked at each other for a moment, and Cheng Zheng hesitated: "Among the hall masters of the twelve halls of Juxian Village, only the hall master of Chenlong Hall, Bai Qianli, the hall master of the Snake Hall, Zhan Zhongliang, and the hall master Zhuge Yun of the Wuma Hall, know how to do tricks, especially Zhuge Yun is very good at it. ”

Zhao Bufan glanced at him.

"I heard Bai Qianli say earlier, Chenlong Hall is in Guangzhou, Sisnake Hall is in Quanzhou, and Wuma Hall is in Haizhou, what does the master of the hall mean is where is it more appropriate for us to go?"

This slightly ridiculous remark made Cheng Zheng look a little embarrassed, the so-called far water can't solve the near fire, if you run it, the time will not be short.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Zhu Lian suddenly said weakly.

"I know anyone who knows how to do tricks, and it's right in front of me. ”

Zhao Bufan looked over in amazement.

"Lian'er can also do tricks, why don't I know?"

"Who told you that I would, and if I did, wouldn't I have found the door for you earlier?"

Zhu Lian rolled his eyes delicately, shook his head and said: "Liu Zhongwu father and son are familiar with feng shui and yin and yang, and are good at mechanical arts, so Liu Zhongwu also has to divinate when he is marching, saying that he can avoid disasters and blessings, even with Liu Qi, before I married you, Liu Qi always showed off in front of me for a while." ”

Zhao Bufan heard some flavor and said in surprise: "That kid Liu Qi liked you before?"

"Are you uncomfortable?" asked Zhu Lian with a shy smile.

"What ...... this?"

Zhao Bufan actually wanted to say what year it was, who cares so much, but when the words came to his mouth, he realized that it was inappropriate, it was troublesome to provoke women, in line with the idea that more things are better than less things, he quickly and seriously said: "It's very unhappy, I'm going to clean him up when I go back!"

Sure enough, as soon as Zhu Lian heard this, he immediately laughed happily, stepped forward to hold his hand and said, "Okay! When I was a child, was it necessary?"

"Hmm...... For your sake, let's put this matter aside for the time being!"

Zhao Bufan pretended to nod and quickly pulled away from the topic: "Forget it! Don't talk about this, let's go to Liu Zhongwu first and find Wanhualou!"

"What's the use of you looking for him now, can he still leave the army behind to help you?" Zhu Lian asked.

"Then it's not a way to wait here, it's been more than half a month since that day, if Liu Zhongwu is still grinding in Dengzhou and hasn't broken Wang Qing's main force, I suspect that he doesn't want to return to Beijing so soon, and deliberately delays time, where can he be so slow with his ability?"

Zhao Bufan said, he didn't think too much in his heart, and quickly walked towards the path leading to Yunshui Peak......

On the way back, he also deliberately went to Yunshui Temple for a trip, did not alarm those Taoist leaders, just wandered around like ordinary people who burned incense and prayed for blessings, but no matter how you look at it, those Taoist priests are also ordinary monks, the pace is not impatient, sweeping the floor, meditating, each busy, and the word killer is not associated at all.

If one or two pretend to be like, but if the hundreds of Taoist priests in this Taoist temple are all pretending to be seamless, it is almost impossible to accomplish, if every killer can cultivate the Tao calmly, eat tea and light food every day, and accompany the people who burn incense and pray for blessings to study Taoism, then how can they be killers.

All this also made everyone completely eliminate their doubts about the view of clouds and water, and went down the mountain.

When he returned to Shiyan Town, it was already evening, Zhao Bufan took everyone to the inn, and instructed the innkeepers to get some wine and meat, and after a full meal, he was ready to go upstairs to the guest room to rest.

This guy who received them was the guy who pointed out Yun Shuifeng earlier, and he also got a reward or two from Zhao Bufan at that time, and at this moment he sent everyone upstairs to be respectful, and when he came to the door of the inn, the guy smiled and took out the key, Zhao Bufan reached out to pick it up, but he didn't think that he suddenly felt that in addition to the key, he was also stuffed with something.

Zhao Bufan was stunned for a moment.

The innkeeper didn't say anything, smiled like a normal guest, and turned to leave.

Zhao Bufan was very puzzled in his heart, he didn't rush to check, but quietly pinched the paper ball in his hand, and waited for the keys to the two guest rooms next door to be given to Cheng Zheng and Xie Wufeng, so he opened the door and walked into the house with Zhu Lian.

Seeing the door closed by Zhu Lian, he spread out his hand and gently unfolded the crumpled paper ball.

Zhu Lian turned his head and saw his mysterious appearance, and immediately lowered his voice and asked, "What are you doing with the paper in your hand?"

"I don't know, the innkeeper gave it to me!"

Zhao Bufan replied softly, and happened to open the paper ball, and his face changed dramatically in an instant.

"Oh no, something happened!"
