Chapter 92: Running across Shuidu Cloud Cave
Xiangyin.
It is located in the south of Dongting Lake, at the end of the Xiangjiang River and Zijiang River.
He also sat and looked at Yuanling, Xiangtan, Yuanjiang River and Lishui.
In the land of three Xiangs and four rivers, it is in an excellent location, and the transportation is extremely convenient whether going north or south.
There are Dazhang Sanhu in the north of Xiangyin, which were originally part of Dongting.
It’s just that the changes in the sea have gradually formed three lakes, but today most people are still accustomed to calling them South Dongting, or Dazhang, Beitou, and Hezhao.
Shijun Mountain is adjacent to Beitou Lake.
The group left Zhuangzi.
Go straight to the Three Lakes of Dazhang.
Chen Yulou was wearing a long gown. At this moment, his eyes were slightly closed, as if he was sleeping but not awake.
The dragon horse under him is very humane, and seems to be aware of the owner's state of mind. It runs with great ease, and its four hooves hit the ground very gently. Sitting on the horse, you can hardly feel any big shock.
Looking from a distance, it looks like a white feather gently fluttering in the morning mist.
Not only is the dragon horse underneath him magical.
The people riding behind them are all rare species in the world.
Partridge Whistle chose a horse from outside Guan and sat astride it. His Taoist robes were blowing in the wind. His eyes were shining and his expression was calm. He suddenly looked like a Taoist master practicing in the mountains.
The red girl is quite talented.
He is as red as fire.
She saw it at first sight when she went up the mountain.
Keep him by your side for ten years.
At this moment, she is wearing a red dress, rising and falling with the galloping horse, her majestic appearance is like a red feather.
As for Kunlun, because he is too tall, ordinary horses cannot bear it.
He has only one requirement for choosing a horse.
That means he is fat and strong, with amazing endurance.
The horse under him is half a head taller than the others, with thick limbs. The four hoofs are wrapped in black gold, and the sound of stepping on the stones is like thunder.
The clear sound of gold and stone resounded.
Less than half an hour.
The convoy and horse team arrived at Beitou Lake Pier.
The morning fog was thick along the way, and the water mist on the lake was even more amazing.
You can hardly see much when you look up.
There was only a large ship leaning against the shore, a few sampans and wooden boats passing back and forth in the mist, and a few busy figures faintly visible.
That’s the fishermen nearby who rely on the water to get up early and cast their nets to catch fish.
"Hurry up your hands and feet."
"Move the things onto the boat first."
"Try to spend the night in Chenxi in the evening."
At the dock, reminders kept coming.
The Chen family's guys are quickly unloading and loading the ship.
On this trip, including Chen Yulou and others, there were probably more than 40 people, close to 50, heading to southern Yunnan.
Except for the agile thieves.
Also traveling with the ship were doctors.
In the land of southern Yunnan, poisonous miasma is everywhere, and it is summer. Traveling long distances is the most vulnerable to heat poisoning.
Without a doctor, I'm afraid I would lose half of my life before I even fight.
Not even a moment.
All the supplies have been shipped.
Except for the necessary items, I only carried enough food for three to five days.
Although prices are staggering these days.
But you can replenish supplies anytime you have money.
But firearms and gunpowder are relatively thorny, and they are tools for self-defense and life-saving, so Chen Yulou did not dare to use them on others.
“Sail!”
There are about twenty people taking the water route.
They are all old people who have been in the mountains for many years.
The vast majority are good at water-based.
When selecting people at that time, Chen Yulou specifically told Guaizi that because there were abundant water systems inside and outside King Xian’s tomb, especially the water dragon halo, he could not dive and could only face each other across the river, out of reach.
At this moment, a shout sounded.
The sound of sails being raised suddenly continued one after another, and before long, the speedboat broke through the fog and headed towards Dazhang Lake.
The three lakes are connected to each other.
The Dazhang is located in the far west and is connected to the Yuanjiang River. Once you enter the river, you can reach the junction of Yunnan and Guizhou.
Watch the ship leave.
Chen Yulou did not waste any time and looked back at everyone.
“Let’s go too.”
"Yes, from the shopkeeper."
A response came.
Then with the sound of horses neighing and neighing, more than twenty figures quickly rode away.
Follow Chen Yulou’s plan.
They need to arrive in the Duyun Cave area in southern Guizhou within two days.
In that place, Miao and Dong people have lived together for generations, and the chieftains rule the mountain people, who are most afraid of outsiders. However, it happens to be the only way to enter southern Yunnan.
So, you must go in advance and make plans.
The accompanying thieves had already received the news.
There is no surprise at all about this plan.
In fact, for them, they do not have the ability to fly to the sky and escape from the earth, otherwise they would have wished they had entered southern Yunnan one day earlier.
It's probably the same as the brother who went to Pingshan last time.
Have a big fight.
They have been in the mountains all year round, but they didn’t know that last month the shopkeeper went to the Mengdong River, emptied a large bucket, and retrieved nearly a thousand pieces of artifacts.
For a time, it almost shocked the entire world.
You know, for hundreds of years, countless people have been thinking about the Pingshan Tomb.
But no one successfully stole it.
Only a single human life was left behind, as well as countless strange rumors.
What about Pingshan Corpse King, Corpse Moving Place, Ghost Mist, Mountain Spirit and Great Demon?
But...it only took Chen Yulou less than half a month to steal such an amazing treasure.
Especially the news coming back from the provincial capital these days.
It is said that there is a gold-moving building in Baisha Ancient Well.
Gold is like sand, and silver oceans pile up into mountains.
Everyone of the Xiling brothers accompanying them was rewarded. Even the families of the two who died received a sum of money.
According to the shopkeeper.
This is called a pension.
For a time, the thieves on the mountain wanted everyone to die.
Who is not greedy for those who are not selected? Such a large amount of money is enough to buy a small yard down the mountain, buy a few acres of fertile land, marry a wife, and farm with peace of mind.
This time they were selected to go to southern Yunnan. Everyone was extremely excited and eagerly awaited.
I just want to find a future.
At least one trip can buy you more than ten years of wealth.
In troubled times, human life is as cheap as grass. Others who want to exchange their lives for money have no such opportunity.
It is worth mentioning.
After Chen Yulou stole Pingshan.
I don’t know how many people were jealous and coveted.
There are three or four groups of several thousand bandits who go to the Pingshan filter pit to wash sand.
but.
The Xiling faction has always cut down mountains to make corridors and cut through rocks to hide.
If you don’t spare any grass or trees, how can you leave anything good to future generations?
Those bandits came one after another, many of them.
But instead of trying to make a fortune, countless people and horses were lost when encountering the earth energy rising from the bottom of Pingshan Mountain, that is, the pig block.
For a time, there were many rumors about Chen Yulou's ability to explore the depths of the sky.
As for those bandits who did not get any benefits, how could they swallow the bad breath in their hearts.
Unable to go down to Pingshan, I set my sights on the ancient tombs and ancient buildings in the surrounding county towns.
It is said that there is an ancient pagoda in Fengming County, which is in the same vein as the Pingshan Tomb.
Buried underneath is a Buddhist monk from the Yuan Dynasty.
As soon as the news came out, the bandits went crazy. They gathered a large number of teams, broke through the city gate, and used countless gunpowder to blow open the stone door under the ancient pagoda.
It is true that there is a Yuan Dynasty tomb underneath, but there are not many burial objects.
Furthermore, the monk's corpse was incorruptible, so a conspiracy was made to fake the corpse's return to life.
As a result, everyone in Fengming County is in danger, the wind is rumbling, Chenzhou talismans are posted in every household, and no one dares to go out at night.
In the end, experts were invited to burn the monk's body and rebury it, thus ending the turmoil.
but.
Fengming and Xiangyin are too far apart.
The vast mountains of Laoxiong Ridge are separated in the middle.
In addition, after Chen Yulou returned to the village, he spent most of his time either practicing or busy preparing for his trip to Zhelong Mountain, so he really didn’t know much about the matter.
Now I am going to southern Yunnan.
There is no time to think too much about these rumors.
Almost all along the way, he was multitasking, and he did not forget to practice while he was on the road.
Partridge Whistle and others are similar to him.
Even Kunlun has not yet come into contact with the Xuan Dao Convincing Qi Foundation Building Technique, and spends most of his time with his eyes closed and thinking.
From the day he learned shooting from Zhang Yunqiao. As of today, almost twenty days have passed.
The Five Tigers' Door-Breaking Spear has reached the entry-level level.
Don’t look at it, it’s just an introduction.
But Yue Gun, Years of Swords and a lifetime of spears, if you want to break through the entry level in spear skills, it will be difficult for most people to reach the threshold in three to five years.
After getting started, there is subtlety, and after that, there is perfection, and the unity of heaven and man.
But with his talent and hard work.
It is only a matter of time before one reaches subtlety.
At this moment, he was riding on horseback, looking around at the rolling mountains, but what he was thinking about was every scene of Zhang Yunqiao's practice of the Five Tigers' Door-Breaking Gun.
One move at a time, lifting, turning and picking.
After careful consideration, others were almost entranced.
The old foreigner followed closely behind.
Ever since I learned that Kunlun could speak.
In the past few days in Zhuangzi, I often asked him for advice on how to strengthen the muscles and bones and strengthen the blood.
Although Kunlun did not practice horizontal kung fu.
But he is born with divine power.
The road to martial arts leads to the same destination through different paths.
Tell me how your Qi and blood flow and how your strength develops every time you take a shot.
The old foreigner actually gained a lot.
However, the most shocking thing was when he asked Kunlun to pull his Qinchuan Bow once.
For the first time, he saw the bow as full as the moon.
You know, even the omnipotent senior brother in his heart cannot achieve that step.
But Kunlun didn't make any preparations.
Just a random pull.
The bow string suddenly buzzed like a gust of wind.
Then...
The tens-of-stone Qinchuan Bow was like a full moon in Kunlun's hands, stretched to the extreme.
Also since that day.
The old foreigner finally understood the gap between the two.
Now riding on horseback, looking at Kunlun, he is still thinking about his marksmanship even if he is on his way.
The shock in his heart was even stronger.
Don't dare to think wildly, but also calm down your mind, polish your state of mind, and practice meditation.
On the other hand, Hua Ling and Miss Hong, the two girls seemed to have endless things to say, admiring the scenery along the way.
"Brother Chen?"
Sitting on the horse and breathing in, a week is over.
Partridge Whistle looked at the green-shirted figure in front of him, or to be precise, the long sword hanging outside Longju's body, and couldn't help but show a bit of surprise in his eyes.
If I remember correctly.
Chen Yulou used a knife.
When he came out this time, he actually brought a sword with him.
Looking at the length, it’s at least about four feet.
A lot of people use knives these days, and almost all of the Xiling bandits who are clearing the way ahead carry knives.
But the Sword Bearer... He has traveled around the world for many years, but fewer and fewer people use it.
One is that swordsmanship is difficult to practice.
Second, if you are really trapped, it will be faster to draw your sword and fight.
But based on his understanding of Chen Yulou, he came here specially with his sword hanging. It is definitely not Ye Gong who loves dragons, it is just an appearance.
Not to mention.
Even through the scabbard.
Partridge Whistle could almost feel the sound of the dragon roaring in the box, which made him tremble and at the same time feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
"Brother Dao, is there something wrong?"
Chen Yulou was holding a map to see where they had gone.
Hearing the voice coming from behind, he subconsciously looked back at him.
"Brother Chen's sword..."
The Partridge Whistle had no intention of asking. After all, it was someone else's secret, and prying into it was taboo.
However, feeling the majestic sword energy, he couldn't hold it back and blurted out.
Now Chen Yulou has turned around.
He couldn't hide it, so he could only ask bravely.
"Oh, Brother Tao asked about it."
Pointed to the Dragon Scale Sword.
Chen Yulou took off his sword and threw it away.
After he was brought out of the fire cave that day and brought back to Chenjiazhuang, he immediately had a scabbard made for the Dragon Scale Sword.
It is made of purple sandalwood, which is thick and majestic, and is very consistent with the majesty of the Eight-sided Han Sword.
At this moment, the sun is setting, and the incised patterns are still faintly reflected on the scabbard.
It looks even more amazing.
"This..."
Partridge Whistle subconsciously reached out to take it, but the moment he took it, the talent realized it and couldn't help but hesitate.
“Here, Brother Tao, let’s see what happens.”
Seeing his surprised expression, Chen Yulou just smiled faintly.
He had actually wanted to take it out for a long time, but in the past few days in Zhuangzi, he had been busy with his trip to southern Yunnan, and Partridge Whistle spent most of his time practicing in seclusion after entering the village.
There really isn’t a good chance.
Now that he is asked, he will naturally not hesitate to take a look.
“Okay.”
Seeing how calm he was, Partridge Whistle was no longer coy.
Hold the sword hilt and pull it out gently.
Only a few inches out of the sheath, a piercing cold light shone in his eyes.
Partridge Whistle closed his eyes subconsciously.
I only felt that the sword intention was like a waterfall in the cold light, and there was also a hidden aura that made his heart tremble.
"Six-winged centipede?"
He finally realized that the evil aura was exactly the same as the six-winged centipede that was surrounded and killed in Pingshan that day.
Even he, under the overwhelming sword aura, did not dare to look more. He sealed the long sword into its sheath with a swipe and let out a long breath.
“Brother Dao has a good eye.”
Seeing him tell the origin of the Dragon Scale Sword, Chen Yulou couldn’t help but raise his head and smile.
"It's really..."
Get a confirmed reply.
Partridge Whistle's heart moved, and the thoughts in his mind seemed to return to the cave for a moment.
Yes.
After killing the six-winged centipede that day, Chen Yulou specially took out the demon sinew.
Looking at the long sword in his hand now, he suddenly felt as if it weighed as much as a thousand pounds.
It’s just... integrating the inner tendons of the great demon into the sword. Who in this world can do this kind of skill?
"Honeycomb Mountain, Li Shuguo?"
My thoughts are surging.
Partridge Whistle's mind wandering around, and finally settled in the Palace of the Underworld, the general of the Yuan Dynasty.
At that time, it was still the location of Honeycomb Mountain that he told us about.
But he never expected that Chen Yulou could do things so quickly.
It only took a month.
The long sword has been released.
"Hahaha, I knew I couldn't hide it from Brother Tao. Chen would have to thank Brother Dao for telling him that day. Otherwise, Chen wouldn't know that the world-famous Lord of Fengfeng Mountain is in Yunjiang by the Yuanjiang River. Seclusion in Huashan ”
Heard him murmuring.
Chen Yulou couldn't help but clasped his fists and laughed loudly.
"Brother Chen, you're so polite. It's an honor for Yang to see such a sword."
Partridge Whistle shook his head and looked at the Dragon Scale Sword attentively before placing the sword Returned.
“Brother Dao, do you know where in the world the swordsmanship is the sharpest?”
He hung up the sword again.
Chen Yulou also came to inquire with interest.
“Use a sword?”
Partridge Whistle raised his eyebrows.
After thinking about it carefully, he finally shook his head.
"I heard that Mr. Zhang from the previous dynasty was good at using swords, but I don't know if it has been passed down. If there is a chance, Brother Chen can go and look for Zhang Jiuyi." .
The few killing weapons he had were his two twenty-ring mirror boxes, and the other was his junior brother, the old foreigner's Qinchuan Bow.
I don’t know much about swordsmanship.
However, these are just modest words. He has traveled around the world for many years, met countless people, and has seen a lot.
Next along the way.
The two chatted about kendo in detail, which benefited Chen Yulou a lot.
Time flies too.
Unknowingly.
It is already late at night on the third day.
A team of twenty people finally rode across the county towns of Taojiang, Anhua, Xupu, and Huaihua, and arrived at the boundary of Duyun, which is also the end of the tributary of the Yuan River.
“Find a tavern first.”
“That place is full of good and bad people, and it is quite convenient to inquire about things.”
