Chapter 921 Mountain within the mountain
"Okay, everyone, let's start to rest. I have to leave. Brother Zeng, please help me escort them back. By the way, this is for you." Liu Jun gave Zeng Cheng the hundreds of thousands in cash that Brother Hu had originally snatched.
Zeng Cheng waved his hands repeatedly to express his refusal.
"Take it quickly, you deserve it." Liu Jun handed it to Zeng Cheng without saying a word, turned around and walked out.
"Wait, Mr. Liu, do you know the way to Phoenix Mountain?" Zeng Cheng called to Liu Jun.
This really puzzled Liu Jun. Liu Jun really didn’t know the way to Fenghuang Mountain.
“Um, I really don’t know him.” Liu Jun touched his head awkwardly.
Zeng Cheng smiled, this Liu Jun can definitely be considered cruel when he is fierce, but when he is dealing with his own people, he is still easy to talk to.
"I'll go with you. I know the road. Besides, I've been to Phoenix Villa once, but I was thrown out again." Zeng Cheng said with a smile.
“Have you been to Phoenix Villa?” Liu Jun and Mr. Yu asked in unison.
Old Yu was surprised because Phoenix Villa was a legendary existence and he didn't even know whether it existed or not.
And Liu Jun was surprised because Phoenix Villa is a sacred place for bird demons. Zeng Cheng, an ordinary person, did not become bird food when he entered, but still came out alive and kicking. This is very unscientific.
“Yes, I was saved by a kind-hearted big bird. Originally, I saw the words Phoenix Villa not far away, but no matter how I walked, there was always a distance from those words. Then a big bird flew out, flew around me a few times, and took me out. Otherwise, the ghost might have left me there if he had hit the wall."
Zeng Cheng said Then he opened his backpack and took out a snow-white bird feather. "This is the one that the big bird dropped when it flew away after sending me out. Take a look."
Liu Jun took it After looking at it, there was a faint evil spirit on it, which meant that this bird demon was not of high moral character. Being able to send Zeng Cheng out meant that he was kind-hearted and a good bird.
Mr. Yu looked at it for a few times and became a little excited. "Is it really the owner of this feather who saved you?" I picked it up and have been using it as a talisman," Zeng Cheng replied.
"This is the feather of a crested ibis. This bird is very rare and on the verge of extinction. The most important thing is that this is not its habitat at all," Mr. Yu said with a trembling voice.
If what Zeng Cheng said is true, then this Phoenix Villa is very likely to really exist.
Liu Jun looked at Mr. Yu who looked like he was suffering from Parkinson's disease, and was a little worried, fearing that the old man would get excited and pass by, and he would not be able to make a deal with Wu Yizhi by then.
"Little friends, let me go with you, I must go there," Mr. Yu said, pulling Liu Jun.
"Your body?" Liu Jun asked.
"Don't worry, I have to thank you for this. This snow lotus petal makes me, an old man, seem twenty years younger. Now I am full of strength. I will definitely have no problem climbing the snowy mountains." Mr. Yu patted his chest. Said confidently.
"What about the ball? Can she continue to climb?" Liu Jun pointed at Catherine.
"Apprentice, you take Catherine back first, and I'll go to Phoenix Mountain," Mr. Yu said through gritted teeth.
With Catherine, I don't know what trouble will happen. When Liu Jun gets angry again, it won't be as simple as making Catherine fat, so Mr. Yu is also doing it for Catherine's good.
But Catherine didn't understand it that way. He thought Mr. Yu disliked her, so he picked up his things and started going down the mountain without saying a word. Before leaving, he looked at Liu Jun and the others with hateful eyes, including Yu. old.
"Yu Lao, did you see it? It's easiest to kill this kind of person"
Hearing Liu Jun's words, Yu Lao sighed, but didn't say anything.
After saying goodbye to Mr. Yu, the man with glasses quickly caught up with Catherine. Catherine's current body shape made her walk a bit slow. Of course, if she was willing to roll down, she would still be able to walk very quickly.
Without other burdens, Liu Jun directly carried Yu Lao on his back, and the three of them climbed the Snow Mountain as quickly as possible.
Although it was still dark, it did not have much impact on the three of them, especially Zeng Cheng. He felt that his whole body was full of energy, and he wished he could climb back and forth in the snow-capped mountains.
This kind of venting is very good. Zeng Cheng has always exercised and is strong. A piece of snow lotus petal has already been somewhat replenished, so that the excess strength can be evaporated.
After seven or eight hours, the three of them braved the heavy snowstorm and finally passed through the Snowy Mountains and arrived at another snowy mountain surrounded by clouds and fog.
This mountain is higher than the snowy mountain that Liu Jun and the others climbed before. "This is Phoenix Mountain?" Liu Jun said with a broken face.
Seeing Zeng Cheng nodding, Liu Jun's heart collapsed even more. He had to climb this snow-capped mountain until the year of the monkey, and so many birds flew over for pilgrimage. Aren't he afraid of dying from exhaustion?
"Yes and no, there is no need to climb up this, because even though it is Phoenix Mountain, it is not Phoenix Mountain," Zeng Cheng explained.
Liu Jun rolled his eyes, "Brother Zeng, if you were not very skilled, you would never live this long. Can we breathe loudly when we speak?"
"Haha, I didn't mean that. Look at your expressions. In fact, I used to think this was Phoenix Mountain, but later I discovered that this Phoenix Mountain is a cave in its own right. Phoenix Mountain is a mountain within a mountain." Zeng Cheng said with a smile.
"Mountain within a mountain?" Liu Jun looked confused.
Yu Lao is well-informed. As soon as he heard the word "mountain within the mountain", he immediately showed an expression of enlightenment.
For so many years, no matter whether it is satellites or airplanes, Phoenix Mountain has not been discovered. It turns out that Phoenix Mountain is hidden in a big mountain, so this is the reason why Phoenix Mountain cannot be found for so many years.
"You'll know in a minute, follow me." Brother Zeng blinked and did not explain Liu Jun's confusion, but led the way.
After only climbing more than a hundred meters to this snow-capped mountain, Brother Zeng stopped. For the towering snow-capped mountain, this height was just at the foot of the mountain.
Zeng Cheng walked around for a few times, with a smile on his face, and pointed at a snow mountain boulder four to five meters high in front of him. "This is the passage. If you hit it, you can find the way to Phoenix Mountain."
Liu Jun was stunned for a moment, "Brother Zeng, you're talking about the way to heaven, right?"
Zeng Cheng didn't explain and just leaned forward with his head.
Then, a horrifying scene appeared. Zeng Cheng’s head was stuffed into the boulder, but his body was still outside.
If this was to be in a horror movie, it would have to be mosaic.
"Huh?" Liu Jun felt something was wrong, because Zeng Cheng's hand was still moving, which meant that he was fine.
Then he stretched out his hand, and his hand miraculously passed through.
“That’s not right, how could the magic array not have energy fluctuations?” Liu Jun was puzzled. When the array was running, there must be energy fluctuations. As long as there were energy fluctuations, he would not be able to detect them.
Moreover, there are very few illusion formations that can not reveal flaws in front of his eyes.
Liu Jun walked into the boulder with Mr. Yu with doubts.
What appeared in front of them was a winding passage.
There are countless shiny stones above the passage. Looking along the passage from here, these shiny stones seem to form a galaxy. The light of the stars illuminates the passage, giving people the feeling of being in a fairy tale. The world feels magical and unreal.
As a senior lover of glitter, Liu Jun knocked down a small luminous stone without hesitation.
I then pinched it and was surprised to find that this thing was as hard as a diamond. If you take it out, you will definitely be able to sell it for a lot of money.
Liu Jun thought happily, and just when he was about to reach out and knock a few more pieces, a strong wind blew along the passage, causing the skin of the three of them to hurt.
After a few minutes, the strong wind finally disappeared. Liu Jun thought for a moment and lightly knocked on the glowing stone, and another strong wind blew over.
This time the three of them were well prepared and immediately squatted down and huddled together.
After the strong wind passed, Liu Jun did not dare to knock on this thing anymore, because the power of the wind was getting stronger and stronger. Who knows whether a tornado would appear if he knocked on it a few more times.
The three of them began to move forward. As the three of them continued to go deeper, the surrounding scene began to change.
In addition to the shiny luminous stones, there are also some more patterns on both sides of the passage.
These patterns are carved on the stone walls on both sides of the passage, and they seem to have some history.
Every few meters, the patterns will change. Some are depicted animals, some are depicted human beings, some are ancient ferocious beasts that Liu Jun has only seen in ancient books, and some are unnamed. Auspicious beast.
