The fresh air fills the morning field, and begins to wash away the vicissitudes of the night. A flock of wild geese soaring in the dawn swept over the mountains, crossed the silent sky of the morning, and flapped their wings into the distance where the same mountains undulated. The rising sun shines comfortably, and the vast mountains and fields are peacefully bathed in the first rays of sunlight.

After walking for a long time, Chen Feng and Feng Yuan finally entered the depths of the Lin Mo Mountain Range. Along the way, Chen Feng not only listened to Feng Yuan tell a lot of anecdotes, anecdotes, and nearby customs, but also knew that Feng Yuan's age was not as old as his appearance, only thirty-one years old, but he had been out for many years. Because Feng Yuan had been poisoned by corpses and had not been treated in time, he had become the ugly and old he was now.

In the evening, the two came to a village not far from the treasure spot. Further on, there is a rocky pass. After stopping, the two of them began to ask people in several nearby villages about some strange gossip and strange things in the neighborhood, and they did hear some of them.

According to the villagers, to the south of the village, there is a very mysterious col. This col is shrouded in a thick white mist all year round, and you can't see your fingers, even on a sunny day. Because the ground of this col is full of scattered rubble, it is called a rocky col.

It stands to reason that in the Lin Mo Mountains, even if there is some mountain fog on the periphery, this is a normal thing, but a place like this, which is shrouded in dense mountain fog all year round, is a little too incredible.

Some of the more daring villagers ventured into it a few times. But the strange thing is that every time someone goes in, they will unconsciously lose their way, and they will often be trapped for a day or two, until they are so hungry that they will be unable to get out of the col inexplicably.

As time went by, the villagers still couldn't unravel the mystery of the mountain pass, but they didn't dare to try to go inside.

After Feng Yuan and Chen Feng heard this, they were both happy and worried. The good thing is that the villagers are talking about the Troubled Stone Col, which is probably the location of the treasure point marked on the wooden plaque; the worrying thing is that since the villagers have tried so many times, they can't get rid of the fog of the Chaotic Stone Col, and after Chen Feng and Feng Yuan enter, they will probably also be trapped in the fog, and it is almost impossible to find the treasure.

But having come here, naturally it is not the time to retreat, and both of them still decided to give it a try.

Just as the two of them were about to leave the village, they suddenly found that a young man who was three or four years older than Chen Feng was also inquiring about the situation of the stone pass. However, it was obvious that listening to the young man's words, he seemed to know more about the rocky pass. Chen Feng was even more surprised to find that on the young man's waist, there was also a black wooden plaque about the same size as Chen Feng's hand.

Seeing this, the two immediately stopped.

Feng Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I'm coming!" After finishing speaking, he tidied up his appearance that he didn't need to tidy up at all, stepped forward, and said to the young man: "Friend is also for the sake of the stone pass? Can you take a step to speak?" After speaking, Feng Yuan lit up the wooden sign he had just received from Chen Feng.

Seeing the wooden card in Feng Yuan's hand, the young man was also stunned, and then nodded in agreement. In the young man's body, there is a kind of sophistication and maturity that Chen Feng does not have.

When the three of them walked to the edge of the village, Chen Feng found that the wooden card in the young man's hand was still different from the one he got from Feng Yuan: the content of one side of the wooden card in the young man's hand was the same as his own, that is, the side of the treasure map, and the other side, it was another text, which was estimated to be a mantra in other aspects. What a coincidence.

Looking at the young man again, he was thick-looking and dark-skinned, but he looked more like a fisherman than Chen Feng.

Feng Yuan knew that he couldn't hide the matter of treasure hunting from the young man, so he immediately went straight to explain his intentions. The young man also did not mince words, and said very sophisticatedly: "I live in a Taoist temple not far away, so it is better for us to go there and think about it in the long run." I've been here for a while, and that col is not simple. Originally, I didn't think I could grasp the treasure alone, but now that there are two of you, I have some opportunities. ”

Then, the young man reported his name, Leng Feng.

Feng Yuan and Chen Feng naturally agreed. Leng Feng led the way, and the three of them walked for about half an hour, ushering in a high mountain, which was quite grandiose. However, what attracted Chen Feng's attention the most on the mountain was not the intricate mountains and the dense trees that covered the mountain, but the few pavilions hidden among the trees.

Coming to the foot of the mountain, Leng Feng stopped and said, "Let's go halfway up the mountain and take a look, there are still some historic sites on this mountain." ”

Chen Feng asked, "You have really been here for a while, and you are very familiar with it." ”

Leng Feng smiled: "I've traveled before, and I've been here before, but I wasn't very impressed at that time, and I didn't care about that strange mountain pass. I've been here for a long time lately, and I'm familiar with it again. ”

At this time, it was dusk, and if you went further, you couldn't walk much before dark, and Chen Feng was tired of walking, although the mountain in front of him was a little dangerous, but the path leading to the halfway up the mountain was a bluestone staircase, which was not very difficult to pass. Therefore, he followed Leng Feng step by step on the mountain. As for Feng Yuan, he had been frowning and thinking about it, but he didn't talk much.

Halfway up the mountain, I saw a very spacious square suddenly appear in front of me. The square is surrounded by dilapidated pavilions. In particular, in the center of the building, there is a large Taoist temple, although it has collapsed, but you can still see the original majestic atmosphere. As the sun sets, the afterglow falls, making the scene in front of you seem a little lonely.

The head of the mountains, the top of a thousand peaks, the depths of the flowing clouds, the smoke of the cooking. The legends of history and the rendering of the elders have shrouded this ancient Taoist temple with a veil of mystery. Outside the Taoist temple, there are hanging rocks like knives and axes, ingenious strange stones, looking up at the bizarre cliffs in the morning and sunset, Chen Feng can't help but look forward to the gods of the fairy wind bones. However, the road to the path of seeking immortals is so rugged and steep that snakes, insects, mountain demons, jackals, tigers and leopards may block the way.

But is the Tao really boundless? Why is this Taoist temple so desolate? Is there any external force that makes it so decadent? The boundless spring is gone, the white clouds are thousands of years, the Taoist people are not seen, and the Taoist temple has also become a hurried passer-by in history, leaving ruins and ruins, and the sunset is red for several degrees. The remaining dilapidated buildings are like old men in their last years, who have gone through stormy years of cold and summer, and are about to fall, which is regrettable.

Chen Feng looked at the reckless forest, the ghostly cliffs, the cloud-covered valley floor, and the mountain peaks piercing the sky, and suddenly felt that the future was bleak. This life is too bitter, and the next life is too far away, no wonder some people preach that they can enjoy themselves in time and get by. But how long can I be free from the situation in front of me? Before I entered the secret realm, I already felt what kind of pressure my small self would bear.

Chen Feng's emotion, Feng Yuan and Leng Feng naturally would not have it.

Feng Yuan said: "This road looks quite magnificent, the surrounding buildings are diverse, and the scenery is quite a lot, which is a bit like the family temple of a large family, with both ceremonies and villa functions." Feng Yuan knows a lot of stories, and his knowledge is not comparable to Chen Feng, an ignorant fishing village boy.

Leng Feng pointed to the building in front of him and said: "There was originally such a Taoist temple near my house, and I heard that there were also immortals flying around, and then everyone moved away. When my grandfather was young, the Taoist temple was still there, and there were many villages and towns nearby, and they were all relatively prosperous. Listening to my father, my grandfather was sent over by my grandfather's father to be a Taoist boy when he was a child, but unfortunately because of his qualifications, he became vulgar again. But thankfully, otherwise there would probably be no me in this world. And I heard that the mountain was not something that could be approached casually at first, and it was foggy all around on weekdays, and those who walked in quickly got lost, but it was similar to a rocky pass. When my dad and I came to the neighborhood to collect medicine, it changed. My father said that since my grandfather's generation, the Taoists inside have dispersed, and the fog is gone. I guess the situation here is similar to the Taoist temple near my house. ”

Leng Feng pointed to the scene in front of him, he was not very old, but he also talked about it with a little vicissitudes.
