Chapter 168 Back Mountain Cave (16) Three Updates
Yu Shi'an nodded and said: "That's the wine pot..."
The second grade of high school hurriedly said: "The wine pot is mine , Brother Wu borrowed it Go, let me tell you, it’s a human matter. Brother Wu has magical powers. If he holds the wine pot hard, the water in the wine pot will have miraculous effects."
Wu Chen scratched his forehead and said: " Stop guessing about this. Don't tell anyone when you leave the cave. I'm not afraid of anything else. I'm just afraid that the rumors will become more and more outrageous. Maybe someone will steal this wine pot one day. They don't know how to use it. It will only cause trouble. Besides, if they meet again in the future, If you happen to be with me about this kind of thing, you will only end up being a meal in the belly of a ferocious ghost."
A few people looked at each other, and Song Gu said: "Don't mention it again in the future. This matter.”
Yu Shian hurriedly changed the topic and asked: "Where should we leave the cave?"
"It's best to leave from here." Wu Chen stood at the edge of the cave entrance and looked outside: "Waiting for reinforcements Now that we've arrived, it's best to start from here. Transport these people out and walk through the cave in front again. Even if you are here for the first time, you will still be afraid. It will be really difficult to take these people with you again. "
Yu Shi'an also came over. Carefully, he stuck his head out and took a look.
Wu Chen reminded:
“The previous vines fell down the mountain. I’m afraid they are as poisonous as the poisonous vines at the exit of the Taoist temple. When Deputy Ambassador Yu came back with his troops, Remember to be cautious and order people to clean up the poisonous vines in the mountain after rescuing these people.”
Yu Shi'an snorted and said:
"You are really thinking in the long term! Going up here is the place where you said the ghosts led us to before. The advantage of walking this way is that those people at the bottom of the mountain never thought that we would If you go out from here, the way down the mountain will be faster.”
< br>The sophomore also came over to take a look and said, "This is easy. I'll go up first, then throw down the rope for you, and then I'll pull you two up. When you come back, just bring more ropes and ladders." "
As he spoke, the second grader grabbed the rocks at the entrance of the cave and stretched out his legs.
……
The cave suddenly became much cleaner.
Wu Chen checked again whether the person lying on the ground was still alive, then sat on an armchair and breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
Song Gu asked: "Are you hungry? Are you thirsty?"
Wu Chen said: "I can't think of these things when I am nervous. Now that you ask me, I am confused again. "I'm thirsty and hungry."
"There is water here, but we don't dare to drink it." Song Gu smiled bitterly.
"It's better to be patient. Su Chang is too evil."
Song Gu also sat on the bed and asked: "You said before that there is no alchemy furnace here. I also find it strange. How can there be no alchemy furnace? "
Wu Chen scratched his forehead and said:
"What ability do you think Prince Cheng has to control Su Chang? An idle prince who ignores government affairs and does not interact with the royal family and senior officials. He only wants to achieve enlightenment. How did he make Su Chang willing to work for him? It can't be because he admires his old and cunning nature, right? "
"You mean... Prince Cheng is really refining elixirs, and he exchanges elixirs with Su Chang?"
"That seems to be the case at the moment, but Su Chang said before that his eight disciples left first with the pills. His words cannot be believed, but why did these eight disciples leave their master behind? What they took away with them was What?"
Song Gu frowned and thought, and suddenly looked at Wu Chen in horror and said, "They took away some of the demons they had already trained?"
Wu Chen looked solemn. Said: "That's what I'm worried about. It's true that what I took away was the secret book of elixirs or something like that, so there's no need to worry. But if I took away the ferocious ghost, count the time... Su Chang said he knew I wanted to seal the mountain, He asked his apprentice to leave with the elixir and the secret book. It would only be a few days later, but he could not believe his words. If it had been a few days earlier, he might have arrived in Kyoto. "
"What would have happened!" Song Gu stood up suddenly.
“Don’t be anxious, it’s useless to be anxious. When I get back, I will ask Fei Ge, a sophomore in high school, to pass the message, but...”
Wu Chen's mind flashed back to the previous encounters with ferocious ghosts. First of all, the person he controlled had to be nearby, and secondly, the encounter was either at night or in an illusion.
"Eight people, eight people, how many will they take away?" Song Gu paced back and forth in the cave anxiously.
"No more, Su Chang doesn't think he will be discovered here, nor does he think I have the ability to escape from his illusion. How could he send the beast out so easily?"
"If not many people are sent away, how can we let them go?" All eight disciples are following?”
“Yes, how come all eight disciples are gone? It’s not a short journey from here to Kyoto, and the ferocious ghosts need to be fed by living people, so they are not afraid of them along the way. Being discovered?”
Song Gu returned to the cave and sat down, and said with a solemn expression: "The most important thing now is to interrogate Su Chang after we go back. You must have some ideas."
Wu Chen smiled bitterly and said:
" Su Chang can make this place look like this. Do you think he is an ordinary person? I just asked him some useful questions before he was not ready, but we didn't know the situation here at that time, and I didn't know what to ask. What , now that I have given him time to prepare, I want to ask again, I am afraid that if there is no truth, we will still be tricked by him."
"Will torture be useful?"
"I am not afraid of him now. I don't say it because I'm afraid that what he said is not the truth, or even says something that misleads us. We don't understand what he did, and it will take a lot of trouble to verify whether what he said is true."
Song Gu nodded, then sighed, shook his head and said: "Just look at the things in this cave... Once they appear in ordinary people's homes..."
"The hideous ghost cannot see the light!" Wu Chen suddenly thought of this. At one point, he stood up excitedly: "The eight disciples can only stay in day and night. Calculated from this, I'm afraid they won't be able to go too far. Moreover, eight people are following them." It's not to control the ghosts, but someone needs to take the first step. Think about it, there are not mountains and forests everywhere on this road. If you reach the plains, there are no mountains and forests. Where do they hide during the day? Do they need someone in front? Are you ready, like digging a hole in the ground and finding a house?"
Song Gu leaned forward and listened carefully.
“I saw a ferocious ghost before I went to Laojie Mountain.”
Song Gu looked surprised.
"Song Tixing also knew that I was a beggar in Anping County before. By chance, I helped Si Zun, and later escorted some very important things to Kyoto. On the way, I saw ferocious ghosts. It was night, and they could float anywhere at will. Among soldiers, if an arm is raised or dropped, a life will be lost, but no one around him knows why his companion died."
"Ah!" Song Gu's eyes widened and his mouth opened.
“Of course, in the end I took action, and they were all gone. However, no matter how fast I was, I couldn’t make them appear as soon as they arrived, so several soldiers still lost their lives... I’m going too far. They cannot see the light, and there will be delays on the way. After I destroy the cave and make sure nothing is left behind, I will set off. Cheng is going to Kyoto, and Song Tixing wants to find out who Zhang San is as soon as possible. This person... is definitely not a kind person! "
The children upstairs became more and more naughty, and their steps became heavier and heavier, running. The process sometimes knocked over chairs and sometimes knocked over shelves, but listening to the little girl's cheers, she must be very happy.
Outside the window, in the small garden downstairs, a group of ladies are teasing the children who have not gone to kindergarten. Do you like dad or mom? Which is better, grandma or grandma? The child's immature answers were all good, but the aunts continued to ask questions until the child cried. The aunts laughed and finally coaxed the child. They asked again, "I will go to your house for dinner at noon, and the child cried again." , the ladies laughed again... I woke up to such a sound on a beautiful day.
Alas, the weather is hot, so I can’t sleep with the window closed.
I was wondering, is it a satisfying thing to make a child cry? The old people laughed as happily as the children upstairs.
The weather is getting hot, so be careful to prevent heatstroke and cool down.
