Chapter 416: Nalengrad
Kunlun Mountain, the first holy mountain in China, the origin of the dragon vein in China. The myth and legend of the god Yuan Shi Tianzun is cultivated here, and Taoism respects it as one of the three Qings, which shows its status is respected. There is also a saying that its existence zài was at the beginning of Taiyuan, incarnated as a giant body of Pangu, and opened up the world, which led to the universe and the heavens and the earth.
Whether it is apocryphal, it is true, myths are difficult to test after all, but there are groundless rumors, whether they are true or false, and how can mortals who are as small as dust make a decision. The myth is far away, but the majestic shore of Kunlun is enough for ordinary people to look up to, here is completely inaccessible, but at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, there is a group of six people, the footsteps keep walking towards the mountains.
"This should be almost the Kunlun Mountains!" asked a fat man in the team who was not good-looking, panting slightly.
Although the rest of the people didn't have much to say, they all had sweat on their foreheads, and it was obvious that such a trek was not easy for them. But if there are herdsmen who live in the vicinity all the year round, they will be very surprised to see this situation. Although there is no mountain here, the altitude is much higher than that of the plain area, and a few people are not slow in their feet, but they only sweat slightly after walking for a long time.
Another tall and thin man suddenly stretched out a huge fan in his hand, shook it a few times, and said, "The temperature here is obviously much lower than an hour ago, it seems that we have entered Kunlun Mountain." ”
The man in cloth next to the tall and thin man glanced at him and sneered: "This hellish place is cold like this, do you need to use a fan? The weather is so cold in June, I really don't know what it will be like on the top of the mountain." ”
Looking up at the snow-covered mountain top in the distance, the man took a sip and said, "It's really a dead horse running from Wangshan, how long do we have to walk?"
After saying this, the rest of the people all looked at a woman in white who was not like a mortal, the temperament of the woman in white seemed to be the same as the snow-capped mountains in the distance, she glanced around, and said in a cold voice: "It's not good here, we have to go into the mountain, at least cross the mountain in front." As she spoke, the woman in white pointed to the mountain in front of her.
The other five people looked at the situation, and they couldn't help but feel helpless, the mountain was in front of them, it didn't look far, but the problem was that a day ago they looked at the mountains at such a distance, with the strength of these people's feet for a day, they still couldn't close the distance, and it could be seen that it was not easy to climb over the mountains in front of them.
Several people had their own thoughts in their hearts, but the man in cloth shouted: "After walking for most of the day, take a break, I don't know what the size is if you go on like this." ”
The fat man who spoke first glanced at the woman in white, and said dissatisfiedly to the man in cloth: "You're afraid of being tired, Miss Ling hasn't shouted tired yet!"
"She doesn't shout tired, and you don't feel distressed?" the man in cloth looked at the fat man narrowly, and said pointedly.
The fat man is not good at words, and when he was said like this, his face was swollen and red, so he was not embarrassed. The last man among the few people spoke at this time, "I've also walked a long way, let's rest first." After speaking, he didn't pay attention to the environment, and sat on the ground. Seeing this, the rest of the people were not hypocritical, and they looked for a place and rested.
After the man who finally spoke sat down, he looked at the mountains in the distance, his face was unwavering, and he couldn't guess what he was thinking, but to those who knew him well, his situation was already very strange. And the woman in the yellow shirt sitting with him also had the same expression, both of them seemed to be thinking about something, but the woman's face was a little dazed and uneasy. The man noticed it and gently squeezed her hand, in exchange for a smile from the other party.
Before long, the man suddenly spoke: "The majestic Kunlun, the root of China, is magnificent and majestic, and you know the insignificance of people when you see it." Miss Ling has lived outside the city for a long time, and she must know a lot about the customs here, can you not tell us about it?"
"People live for a lifetime, and several brothers and sisters are amazingly talented, and they are not mediocre. The woman in white spoke coldly, but the small compliment was not abrupt, "Since Brother Wang wants to hear it, the little woman naturally does not hesitate to tell her." ”
"Two days ago, we turned to the southwest, from here is the real Kunlun Mountain, to the northwest is the hinterland of Kunlun Mountain, legend has it that the West Queen Mother lives in the Yao Chi is there, but almost no one can set foot on it. Go to the southeast, it is Sichuan-Tibet, go down all the way to enter Shu through Sichuan, the scenery of this road is more strange than the majestic outside the plug. Although I have a nickname for the snow outside of the Saiwai, I prefer this area. Tibetan herders mostly live in Qinghai-Tibet and Sichuan-Tibet, they live by herding cattle and sheep, and each ethnic group has a faith, which is more like a paradise than the killing in the Central Plains. ”
The woman in white paused as she spoke, Xu is the extremely low air pressure here is also a burden for her, although she is not breathless, but after saying a little, she still rested for a while, and then said: "The herdsmen of Qinghai and Tibet are extremely in awe of Kunlun Mountain, thinking that such a majestic mountain range is the embodiment of the gods. Legend has it that after Pangu opened the world, he incarnated into Kunlun and supported the heavens and the earth, so this mountain is also called Tianzhu Mountain. I've lived here for a long time, and I've heard from the herders here that there is a river valley called by the locals, and it is also called the Gate of Hell in the Valley of Death. ”
When the woman in white said the gate of hell, her tone was obviously aggravated, and a cold aura suddenly swept over the few people present, although it was broad daylight, and several people were bold and daring, but they still subconsciously felt a chill on their backs.
When the man heard the words "Gate of Hell", his expression changed slightly, and he immediately returned to normal, and asked thoughtfully, "Is the method that Miss Ling said that day referring to this Gate of Hell?"
The woman in white nodded, her expression not showing any change, and admitted, "Not bad." ”
These six people are none other than Wang Yuxin and Ling Xue and their party, since they met outside the Immortal Pass, Ling Xue said that her request was rejected by Wang Yuxin, so she proposed that there was a way to kill the Great Grandmaster, and emphasized that she must go to Kunlun Mountain. In this regard, Wang Yuxin and his people were also divided into three factions, one was the trust faction represented by Wang Shangsheng alone, the other was the opposition faction of Zhang Zong and Mu Tianshu, and the rest was the non-assertive faction of Wang Yuxin and Long Qiuying. Just when a few people couldn't make up their minds, Ling Xue only said: Anyway, you have to run away too, so what's the harm in going to Kunlun Mountain?
In a word, the weakness of a few people, then decided to switch to Kunlun, if you can really kill the great grandmaster, maybe you can give it a try, after all, from the time Wang Yuxin decided to kill Le Fuen, he was already the enemy of the great grandmaster. It's just that despite this decision, they just keep a wait-and-see attitude, and if it is not feasible, they can leave at any time.
This walk is two days, as the altitude gets higher and the low temperature gets lower, they are getting closer and closer to Kunlun Mountain, but Ling Xue hasn't told a few people how she can rely on it, so Wang Yuxin originally planned to ask clearly, so he mentioned resting, but he didn't expect Ling Xue to be the first to say it.
Hearing the name of the Gate of Hell, several people even the mountains flashed solemnly, they were strong in martial arts, and naturally they didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but the more they cultivated to the depths, the more they felt the power of heaven and earth, and when they stepped into the realm of the grandmaster, they had a deep understanding of the power of nature. In this world, there are always some wonderful existences that cannot be done by man, or even unexplained, since Ling Xue is so careful, it will not be so simple to come to this gate of hell.
"What is so unique about this hell gate in Death Valley that can make Miss Ling rely on it so much?" Wang Yuxin asked.
Ling Xue smiled slightly, and said, "Nalengrad is a river valley, with lush vegetation and natural pastures, but even if the herdsmen in this area let the cattle and sheep starve to death, they don't dare to set foot in Nalengrad for half a step. Legend has it that it is the abode of the devil, cursed by the most terrible demons, and the people and animals who step into it will die for ten lives. ”
"Could it be that there is an evil master living in it?" Uncle Mu Tian said to himself, people always like to explain some mysterious things from the perspective of their own understanding.
Ling Xue shook her head and said: "If it is a master of evil skills, it will definitely not be able to leave no traces, and it is not impossible for people who enter Death Valley to survive, there was once a herdsman who risked his life to look for his cattle, but as soon as he entered, the blizzard came, and the herdsman fainted to death." According to his later recollection, he heard a thunderous explosion and fainted numbly, saying that it was the call of the devil, and that he had saved his life by not being able to walk again. ”
"The call of the devil?" Wang Yuxin and the others muttered the word, although they believed in the existence of unknown forces, but they were still skeptical about the theory of ghosts and gods.
Without making a few people wonder for too long, Ling Xue explained: "I don't believe in the theory of ghosts and gods, I have been to the Nalengrad River Valley to see it later, but I also left quickly, that place is not as terrifying as the shepherd said, but it is not simple. I was driving a few cattle and sheep in, and it wasn't long before I heard the devil's call!"
"What happened later?" Wang Shangsheng blurted out, his face was already full of worry, although he knew that Ling Xue was fine, but hearing her story, Wang Shangsheng still couldn't help but worry.
Glancing at this fat man deeply, Ling Xue didn't have any expression, after two days of contact, she also had a little understanding of Wang Shangsheng, this fat man's appearance was not outstanding, he could only be regarded as a downstream among his admirers, and he was relatively silent. Although he didn't make himself feel good, he wasn't annoying, especially when he didn't take advantage of his own danger that day, but Ling Xue looked up to him, but that was all. Ling Xue was naturally beautiful, it was not difficult to find a wishful husband, but she had never had such a plan, she felt that she was born to kill the Great Grandmaster, what if she really wanted to kill that person? Ling Xue didn't think about it, maybe she didn't dare to think about it, maybe she no longer had the goal and desire. A person without purpose and hope, like the walking dead, is the most terrifying.
Shaking her head and shaking off these thoughts, maybe when she kills the Great Grandmaster, she will also be killed by the other party, this ending should be perfect for her, but this qiē has to kill that person to do it. Looking at Wang Shangsheng's slightly embarrassed expression when he realized that he was a little too worried, Ling Xue sighed secretly, and could only blame the other party for using the wrong emotion.
"Not only did I hear the call of the devil, but I saw that it was not the devil at all, but a great bolt of lightning, brighter than ever, nearer than ever. The rumbling sound resounded in my ears, and I was almost stunned by the sound, but fortunately, my subconscious luck protected the seven orifices, but right in front of me, the huge thunder and lightning smashed the three sheep and two cows, except for some fur, not even the flesh and blood remained. Recalling the scene of that day, Ling Xue seemed to still be able to have palpitations, and she couldn't help but tremble.
Long Qiuying walked over, held Ling Xue's hand, and crossed her true qi to help her stabilize her mind. And Wang Yuxin thought for a moment and muttered, "Could it be that this is the secret of Death Valley, the Gate of Hell, and the violent thunder and lightning?"
As he spoke, Wang Yuxin suddenly shook his whole body, looked at Ling Xue and said, "You want to use thunder and lightning to kill the Great Grandmaster?"
Seeing Ling Xue nodding, Wang Yuxin spoke again: "But in this way, some of us will also die, and even ...... No one survived. ”
