Chapter 15: Master
In the depths of the Qinling Mountains, a figure shuttled quickly through the forest, cutting down the vegetation in front of him from time to time, and he did not forget to leave a mark so as not to get lost, this person was Chen Cheng, he had been walking in the woods for nearly an hour, but he still had a feeling of uneasiness in his heart, for fear that he would be caught by the police in the next moment.
After cleaning up the things in the secret room, Chen Cheng wiped the traces again before leaving with confidence, if it weren't for the nearby trees, he would have wanted to set fire and leave, Chen Cheng had done all the murder and theft today, and it was a theft of huge amounts of property, according to the law, it was estimated that he would die twice, but he didn't expect that he would run out and do such a fierce case, thinking about him has a little headache.
Collected a lot of things from Liu Qing's secret room, at first Chen Cheng only noticed gold and banknotes, and in the end he found that there were still a lot of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, whether they were true or not, anyway, Liu Qing's things were not taken in the right way, and there was not much psychological burden.
After another period of time, Chen Cheng felt tired, he just found an open space and wanted to sit down and rest, before his ass sat down, he heard one wolf howl after another in the distance, how dare Chen Cheng stay and rest, spread his feet and ran in the opposite direction of the wolf's sound, and after ten minutes, he slowed down breathlessly.
The howl of the wolves was far away, and only then did Chen Cheng find that the trees around him were obviously much taller than before, his eyes roughly swept around with the light of the flashlight, and finally chose a big tree with a diameter of seventy or eighty centimeters, climbed to the branch and dodged into the Linglong Heavenly Mansion.
When Chen Cheng entered the Tianfu space, if someone on the side would find that there was a dark green jade plaque hanging in the air where he was sheltering just now, like a leaf that would be blown away at any time, or like a lonely boat floating at will, undulating.
Sitting on the grass in the space, leaning on the backpack, Chen Cheng grabbed a few slices of sauced beef from the bag in front of him and stuffed them into his mouth, and waited until he gobbled up his stomach and recovered his physical strength, in order to be safe, he had to find a better place to stay, otherwise he was really afraid of encountering any danger in the middle of the night.
Maybe it was bad luck, or maybe it was the smell on his body that attracted the attention of the animals, Chen Cheng just came out of Linglong Tianfu, and saw a dot of green dots appear not far ahead, although he couldn't see what it was, but Chen Cheng turned around and started running without thinking about it, he knew what those green highlights represented, it was the eyes of the wolf, if he hesitated, I am afraid that he would not even have a chance to escape.
Chen Cheng's physique was already excellent, and under the stimulation of danger, his potential exploded, and he ran wildly all the way without caring about the situation behind him, until there was no way out in front of him, and when he almost fell off the cliff, he noticed that the wolves had been thrown away for an unknown amount of time, and he looked at the time and ran wildly for at least more than an hour.
The danger is gone, the sky is almost dawning, and although the light is not good, you can see the road with the naked eye.
Looking down from the cliff, there is a valley formed by the erosion of the water, and the distance from the top of the cliff to the bottom of the valley is estimated to be sixty or seventy meters.
Chen Cheng was worried that he couldn't find a suitable place to rest, and now he ran here by mistake, feeling that there were no trees under the cliff, and there should be no wild beasts, so he immediately took out two rolls of rope and connected them together, and fixed one end with a flat strap on the big tree not far away, packed up his things, and after checking the safety, he directly put on protective gloves, grabbed the rope and slowly fell down with his hands staggered.
Along the rope down, Chen Cheng is quite agile, a while of work has been close to the bottom of the valley, just four or five meters away from the bottom of the valley, suddenly felt a strong wind blowing from the cliff, turned his head to see that there is a bulge there, out of curiosity, he climbed up twice and found that the cliff wall on the upper left of his place can be accommodated, but from the bottom to the top due to the angle blocked the view, can only see a bulge.
"It's a nice place, four or five meters high from the bottom of the cliff and relatively hidden, just right for me to rest. After confirming the position, Chen Cheng climbed up again, so that he was just above the small platform, and then kicked his toes, and with this force, his body swung to the side, feeling that his body was above the target position, Chen Cheng released the rope in his hand, and let his body fall to the slightly protruding stone.
Finally there was no danger, Chen Cheng stood on the protruding rock, adjusted his body and then slowly squatted, there were some depressions in the direction of this place, but only more than one meter of net height, half-squatting body can move inward, and when he reached the innermost and sat down, he carefully observed, this place is at most more than one meter deep, and the problem of rock angle, only sitting down is safe.
He was more satisfied with this place, and he didn't need to stay outside to suffer with the Tianfu space in his body, so Chen Cheng leaned against a sheltered corner, and disappeared, and only a dark green jade plaque was left in the place where he had just stayed, and no one would notice the strangeness here.
Standing on the grass of Tianfu space, looking at the backpack tools stacked around him and a large number of things harvested today, Chen Cheng couldn't help but sigh a little, if there was no such treasure, even if he got the cultivation method, I am afraid that he would not have much development in the future, and now with such good conditions, as long as he works hard, he may be able to achieve Jindan, and he has never hoped to go up.
When Chen Cheng was in Tianfu Space, if he didn't take the initiative to summon it, the hairball would generally not be able to hide, and he wouldn't know what to do. After being tired all night, Chen Cheng didn't plan to cultivate, and directly opened the camping tent, laid out moisture-proof mats and other items, he was ready to sleep beautifully and wait for his body to recover to its best condition.
Not long after Chen Cheng fell asleep, three figures in the mountains and forests of the Qinling Mountains were running quickly, and the three of them were obviously dressed differently from ordinary people. One of them is a tall and thin yellow-faced Taoist priest, about fifty years old, with a mixed yuan scarf on his head, his face is messy and obviously has not been cleaned up for many days, the cyan Taoist robe is slightly old, and the double-faced cloth shoes and white high cloth socks under his feet are also full of dust, which should have come from a long journey, and the other two are dressed in black cardigans, much older than the Taoist priest, and one of them is full of white hair, at least in his eighties, but a few people are walking in the forest, not showing a trace of fatigue, even the special forces soldiers may not be able to catch up with them, and they are extremely strong。
After a while, the three of them came to the top of the cliff where Chen Cheng was before, and saw that the Taoist priest who was leading the way in front suddenly stopped, and the two old men in black found that they had come to a cliff, and there was no way out in front, the two exchanged glances, and the white-haired old man said with a slightly angry face: "Huang Lao Dao, aren't you making fun of my senior brother's poverty! Could it be that the relics of cultivation are not here?"
"What is the harm to me, you two? What good is it for me to lie to you? The ruins I said will go down the valley from the cliff, and from here to the bottom of the valley is only twenty or thirty zhang high, and you can go down with a few strokes of strength, if you two still have any doubts, it will not be too late to investigate the poor road in a while!"
"Well, in that case, let the zodiac chief lead the way!" said the other man in black in a much more polite tone than his companion.
But soon they saw the rope tied to the tree, and the old Taoist priest's face immediately changed greatly, and his figure flashed to the edge of the cliff and pulled up the rope and shouted: "Wait, how can there be a rope here, could it be that the ruins have been discovered!"
Without Huang Laodao to make a sound, the two black-clothed old men also discovered the rope left by Chen Cheng, seeing that the Taoist priest's face did not change as if he was fake, and he no longer doubted what the Taoist priest surnamed Huang said, the white-haired old man asked, "Are you sure that no outsiders will find out about their whereabouts before?"
The Taoist priest surnamed Huang frowned and glared at the white-haired old man, his face was very ugly, and he said in a stiff tone: "If there are others, I will use to run so far to find you two?
Finding that the Taoist priest surnamed Huang was not good at speaking, another old man in black said with a haha: "Don't get me wrong, my senior brother is fortunate to cooperate with the Taoist Chief, it's too late, and this has already come, how can you not believe the words of the Taoist Chief, just now Senior Brother Wei Chi was about to lose his words, you see that the tethering method of this rope should not be a fellow Daoist, so even if they find the secret of the ruins, they can't go in, I think it's better to go and check it out, I don't know what the long meaning is?"
Although the Taoist priest surnamed Huang was still dissatisfied with these words, his face was much better than just now, and he didn't want to completely fall out with the two of them at this juncture, so he immediately said: "Just now, I forgave the poor Dao for a while, since this is the case, let's go down quickly!" After speaking, he didn't wait for the two black-clothed old men to agree to jump off the cliff first, and only used the rope left by Chen Cheng to buffer the speed of the two falls and fell smoothly to the bottom of the valley, and the remaining two followed the same and landed one after another, fortunately, the speed of their fall was very fast, and they didn't notice that a dark green jade plaque was floating not far above.
At this time, Chen Cheng was sleeping in the Tianfu space, completely unaware that someone was passing by him, if he didn't hide here, I was afraid that he would encounter the three of them soon, and it would be difficult to say what would happen, with the super strength of the three of them, once the conflict was even just a blow Chen Cheng would definitely die.
The Taoist priest surnamed Huang waited until the two old men in black came down, picked up a stone from the ground, and threw it upwards with his wrist, and then heard the sound of a stone hitting the rock from above, and the rope that was still intact just now also fell.
The two old men in black saw that the Taoist priest surnamed Huang had broken a rope that was only a finger thick dozens of meters away with a stone, and the speed of the stone flying also surprised them, although they didn't say anything, but their faces were extremely ugly, when the Taoist priest surnamed Huang invited them to open the ancient ruins together, the two were excited, and they were even more greedy, but just now Lao Dao showed such a hand, and immediately understood that even if the two joined forces, they might not be able to win Huang Lao Dao, and if they didn't do it, they would be calculated by the other party.
Of course, the Taoist priest surnamed Huang deliberately showed his hand just now, what he cared about was whether the ruins had been taken first, as for the two of them, he didn't pay attention to them since the beginning of the fight, if the two of them cooperated honestly, they would naturally share the benefits with them, if the two of them had different intentions, and after the matter was completed, he would not mind doing the thing of unloading the mill and killing the donkey.
Seeing the expressions of the two, the Taoist priest naturally understood what the other party was thinking now, so he said: "This rope is still ruined, let's hurry over, the two of you don't have to worry about the poor Dao will be calculating, as long as the ruins are successfully opened, the benefits are naturally indispensable, let's go!"
After listening to the words of the Taoist priest surnamed Huang, the two old men in black finally felt a little more stable in their hearts, after all, several people had cooperated before, but they were no strangers, and now that they were on the thief ship, it was difficult to go down, it was better to believe the words of the old Taoist, and the previous greed had already dissipated.
