Chapter 4: Night Attack (1)
Three days later.
Night, hiding behind the curtain of dusk, crept in. Black clouds on the horizon soon swept the entire sky. A flawless full moon hid behind the black clouds, like a shining white patch. It radiates a light that can only be seen by the naked eye.
There is a gentle wind gently caressing people's cheeks, as if they are affectionately wiping their loved ones in their sleep.
"Dad, where are we going? How do I remember that this road leads to the Membrane Buddha Cave?" Yun Qing took his father's hand, full of doubts, and looked at his father in confusion.
"Don't ask, you'll find out later. Yuan Ceshen was quite calm and authentic.
Night, very peaceful.
It was so quiet that only the sound of the wind and the moaning of insects was silent, and the breath in the nose weighed heavily on the bottom of my heart, brewing into a huge echo that echoed in my ears without stopping.
A rugged stone road that winds around the mountainside of the valley and leads to the unknown.
Listening to the chaotic footsteps, the sound of insects all over the world is shattered, disturbing the tranquility of the heart, making people feel that the world around them is mysterious and unpredictable, and they can't help but have a faint fear in their hearts.
Yun Qing listened to the cry of an unknown animal in the distance, and his heart was extremely frightened, and his father became his unabandonable dependence, and he couldn't help but hold his father's hand.
Gradually, they walked into a deep valley, lined with tall and majestic mountains, and the sounds of various insects and animals echoed in the valley, which was terrifying.
Yun Qing held his father's hand tighter, and followed his father inch by inch, he looked up at the sky, but what he saw was the tall mountains on both sides, covering the sky dark. Only the bright moon pearl in his father's hand emitted a soft green light, which was just enough for him to see the path clearly.
Suddenly, the mountains became more rugged and the sky darker. A group of unknown objects heard the footsteps and flew up in shock, passing over their heads.
Yun Qing was so frightened that he hurriedly hid behind his father, and it wasn't until those things flew away that the sound disappeared for a long time before he walked out from behind his father.
"It's bats, and the moon pearl in my hand makes them uneasy. Yuan Ce Shinto.
Yun Qing pulled the hem of his father's clothes and said, "Dad, I'm so scared, let's not go." I have a vague sense of foreboding, let's go back. ”
Yuan Ce said: "Then how can you do it, what your father promised you must do." ”
Yun Qing heard her father say this, and felt that her father was really good to her, although she was very scared, she still followed her father forward.
After walking for a long time, the sound of insects and the cries of animals and birds around me gradually became smaller. By the time they reached another deep valley, all but the sound of their footsteps and the sound of the wind had disappeared in an instant. Here, the peaks on both sides are steep, like cut by a knife, and it is difficult for apes to climb.
This unexpected silence made Yun Qing even more frightened, and silence was better than sound at this time, as if it meant some unknown danger.
Yuan Ceshen also felt that something was wrong, looked up at both sides, couldn't help frowning, and quickened his pace. Yun Qing almost couldn't keep up with his father, so he ran quickly to keep up with his father.
They had only walked two or three steps, and they didn't know where a long string of laughter came from.
"Who is Your Excellency?" Yuan Ceshen looked around, trying to see where the man was hiding.
"You don't care who I am, hand over Yuan Yunqing, otherwise this is your grave. ”
Yun Qing listened to the man's voice, it turned out to be a stranger.
"If Your Excellency has this ability, why should you hide and hide. Yuan Ceshen said loudly to the surroundings.
"Hmph, you don't have to worry about this, hand over Yuan Yunqing and spare you from death. The unfamiliar voice added.
Yun Qing listened to the man's mouth and say that he wanted himself, who was he and what he wanted to do by himself. Yun Qing couldn't help but say, "Who are you, I'm with my father, why do you want to separate me from my father?"
"Haha......" said with a long series of unfamiliar laughs, "Little baby, do you know that your father is about to hand you over to the master of the Cave of Freedom as a hostage!"
When Yun Qing heard this, he said angrily: "You are lying, Daddy is taking me to a fun place, not to be a hostage." ”
"Haha...... It's ridiculous, you are walking towards a road of no return, and you don't know it, you don't believe it, you ask your father in person. ”
When Yun Qing heard this, she didn't think much about it, looked up at her father, and asked, "Dad, is this really the case?"
Yuan Ceshen said lightly: "Qing'er, don't listen to his nonsense. ”
"Hahaha...... Yuan Ceshen, are you already cowardly enough to lie to a child?"
"What kind of man is Your Excellency, that you are stirring up the relationship between my father and son? Yuan Ce said angrily.
"Hmph, a person like you who sells his son and begs for peace is not worthy of knowing, let him die!"
There was a sound of wind in my ears, from top to bottom, getting louder and louder. Yun Qing had to immediately look up, but saw a black shadow pressing down, and something huge fell above their heads, in an instant.
When the thing fell within his sight, Yun Qing couldn't help but scream, curled up in a ball, and hid under his father.
It was actually a stone ball with a diameter of one zhang and a length of a foot, and if it was pressed on a person, it would have to be crushed into flesh.
At this critical moment, Yuan Ceshen raised his palm to the sky and caught the stone ball with one hand. As soon as he was lucky, a bit of golden light came out of his body, and he immersed himself in the stone ball along the palm of his hand, and suddenly exploded, scattering like a firework into a full air of golden light, causing the stone ball to explode from the middle outward.
After the stone ball exploded, countless colorless dust floated in the air. Yuan Ce suddenly understood that the stone ball was hollow, and the dust was hidden in the center of the stone ball. Yuan Ceshen suddenly woke up to the fact that these dusts were poisonous, and immediately transported thousands of true qi into the muscles and veins of the whole body, and the true qi went to the east like a great river, and it traveled unimpeded. It shows that the dust is not toxic, but if the dust is really non-toxic, then why should people put dust in the stone ball.
Yun Qing choked on the dust, coughed a few times, covered her mouth and nose with her hands, and crawled on the ground motionless.
While Yuan Ceshen was thinking, another stone ball fell down violently in mid-air, carrying the momentum of wind and thunder, like Mount Tai collapsing. Yuan Ceshen lunged away, raised his hands up, and caught the stone ball stiffly.
Yun Qing looked at his father holding such a big stone ball with both hands, and admired it very much, it turned out that his father had so much strength.
When Yun Qing was stunned, the sound of whistling in the air resounded, Yuan Ceshen yelled badly, and kicked Yun Qing away.
Yun Qing was kicked by his father and flew upside down, but when he landed, he didn't feel any pain at all, and the skin on his body was intact. Yun Qing admires her father even more, and she doesn't have to be afraid of anything with him.
It turned out that when Yuan Ceshen held the stone ball with both hands, the true qi of the dragon in his body was scattered in the air, used to detect the person's every move, and he suddenly noticed that another big stone ball had fallen, and the falling momentum was more fierce than the previous two big stone balls. He wasn't sure if he could handle it, so he kicked his son away.
The two stone balls were together, and for a while, a huge force pressed on Yuan Ceshen's hand, his feet were stunned, and the bluestone slab under his feet was shattered into powder in an instant. At the same time, sensing that the master was in danger, Jiulong's true qi was transported out of his body on his own, and he traced it up, shattering the two large stone balls.
In an instant, this small space was filled with clouds and smoke, accompanied by a drizzle of rain, which obviously emanated from the center of the two stone balls.
Yuan Ceshen used the dragon's true qi to detect the drizzle and clouds, and there was nothing unusual. However, suddenly a sword roar came out of the clouds, and because Yuan Ceshen was careless, a small wound was pierced from the tip of the sword in his palm, and a star of blood suddenly came out. But in an instant, the Nine Dragons' true qi had penetrated out of his body, and he was so domineering that he wanted to destroy everything. The man was in a hurry to stab the sword again, but the sword body was destroyed by the Nine Dragons' True Qi and had to retreat.
After the smoke and rain dissipated, Yuan Ceshen glanced at the stone wall, and saw a person in a black robe standing on the stone wall, at a ninety degree angle to the stone wall. The man's black robe was broad, and when the wind blew, the wide robe swung to the side, revealing a thin figure and a majestic demeanor.
"Your Excellency is so capable, I didn't expect that the real dragon could not detect your hiding place. ”
"Haha...... You better look at the palm of your hand. The man didn't even move his mouth, only the sword in his hand trembled slightly.
Before the end of the sentence, Yuan Ceshen screamed miserably, his eyebrows frowned, and when he looked at the palm, the palm turned from red to black, then from black to green, and finally to cyan.
"Three poisonous gentlemen?"
