Cranes and Blazing Sun - C30
Early in the morning, the ground of the Great Ba Mountain was covered with a thick fog. The misty morning mist was like a gorgeous curtain, shrouding a piece of the verdant mountain forest. The heroes walked in the thick morning mist. He began to search for the mysterious treasure.
After walking up the mountain for a while, Lei Qiuting leaned against a big tree and said, “Brother Yun, this Big Ba Mountain is so big, how can we find this damned treasure? We don’t even have a map to find it.”
Zhang Qingyun thought so too. Fortunately, there were more people now, so he might as well distribute them. It would be easier to find them, so he said, “Valley Master Gongsun, why don’t we split up and find them?”
Gongsun Quan waved his fan and lightly said, “In this vast mountain, it’s indeed not easy to find.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “We will split into four teams. In order to prevent the people on the Life and Death Beacon from taking advantage of this opportunity, I will lead a team of Valley Master Gongsun, Senior Yu, and Taoist Emei to search for him.”
Yu Yufeng said, “This damnable old Taoist and those arrogant old bald donkeys actually refused to come, otherwise, we could have brought a few more teams.” Isn’t it much faster to search for them? ”
Zhang Qingyun smiled gently, “Then let’s set off. We’ll use the signal channel in the middle to contact them.”
Each of them brought a team and began to walk up the winding Great Ba Mountain. Once up the mountain, some places could only climb up the mountain. It was very steep,
Zhang Qingyun and the rest climbed up to the top of a stone wall. On the left side, a long white waterfall cascaded down as if it was flying. In front of the waterfall, there was a small stone path. Suddenly, there was a flash of a person’s shadow on the small stone path.
Lei Zhaoting saw it at a glance and called out, “Who’s here?” The tip of her foot tapped on the rock. He then jumped over …
Zhang Qingyun followed and said, “Tingting, who is it?”
Lei Zhaoting placed a hand on the stone wall and cursed, “This damn fog, by the time I get to this person, I won’t be able to see him. Otherwise I would have caught him myself. ”
Miao Rufei looked at the stone path and said, “There really is someone here. If it weren’t for your loud shout, we might have caught him long ago.”
Lei Yu Ting was already secretly angry at Miao Rufei for not grabbing onto her. Hearing her words, she became even angrier and said, “Fei’er, what do you mean by this?” Would I really be able to let him go? ”
Miao Rufei examined the ground for a while and said, “It wasn’t you who let them go, but you were the one who shouted and scared them away.”
Lei Qiuting pouted in anger and leaned against the stone wall.
Zhang Qingyun also looked around and didn’t find anything. “Forget it, maybe we’re hunting. Let’s get down to business.”
Everyone continued to climb up. As they walked along the small stone path to the mouth of the waterfall, Lei Yuting said faintly, “It’s really strange today. Why is it so foggy in the mountains? Where would we find it?”
Zhang Qing went to look around. The waterfall was like a silver belt in the middle of the surrounding mountains. Clouds and mist swirled around him, revealing this strange scene. It was truly a picturesque scenery. “Tingting, I’ll tell you a good method. Just think that we’re here today to enjoy the scenery and our hearts will feel much more comfortable. Don’t you think that the scenery in front of your eyes is beautiful?”
Miao Rufei walked over to the stream and gently splashed her face with water. She then said with a smile, “The water here is extremely cool. It feels so comfortable.”
Lei Qiuting revealed an uncomprehending expression, saying, “This place is filled with fog, what’s so beautiful about it?” “What’s wrong with you guys? You’re not here to find treasures, are you?”
Zhang Qing turned around and said to everyone, “Everyone, come here and search. This mountain is unique, I think the Evil Lord most likely buried his treasure here.”
As soon as they heard that it was possible, they immediately cheered and carefully searched for every corner of the mountain.
Zhang Qingyun found a rock and sat down. He looked into the distance and saw mountains and rivers far away, forming a moving picture scroll. He could not help but be mesmerized by this beautiful spectacle.
Seeing him in a silent daze, Lei Qiuting stopped searching for the treasure and jumped to his side. “Brother Yun, if you ask others, then go find him. Why are you so lazy here?”
Lei Zhaoting’s words were like a thunderclap on a sunny day to Zhang Qingyun, scaring him so much that he jumped, “Tingting, what are you doing? I was almost scared to death by you. ”
Lei Zhaoting smiled and said, “I’m sorry, but I saw you in a daze. What were you thinking?”
Miao Rufei who was beside the stream raised her hand and said, “Big brother Qingyun, come over here quickly. There’s even fish inside!”
Zhang Yun smiled as he walked over and said, “Fei’er, is that true? Why are there fish on the steep walls? ” As he walked up to the stream, he saw a few fish swimming in the water. He couldn’t help but think of his childhood catching fish in the valley. During the day, he would happily fish in the stream, caught by Grandma Lu and punished to run into the valley. He couldn’t go back now. At that time, there was nothing to worry about and there was no trouble at all. His mother-in-law was by his side, and now that he had come out, everything had happened. His mother-in-law had also gone missing. He had experienced life and death a few times. Now that she thought about it, she felt a little scared. Looking at the fish in the water, she became dazed again.
Lei Zhaoting seemed to want to say something, but was pulled away by Miao Rufei. The two of them sat down on a nearby mountain rock.
Miao Rufei asked, “Tingting, can’t you tell?”
Lei Qiuting looked at Miao Rufei and said, “What, why are you pulling me?”
Miao Rufei slowly turned around and looked at the distant misty forest. “I really miss when I was young. I was so happy at that time. Every day, I would grow flowers with Master and go up the mountain to gather herbs. When I came out, I only knew how wonderful that life was.”
Lei Zhaoting rested her hands on her knees and rested her palms on her head. She looked at Miao Rufei obliquely and said, “The two of you are so weird today.” Aren’t you curious about the treasure? ”
Tingting, don’t you think Big Brother Qing Yun didn’t want to find treasures in the first place? He has always been indifferent to fame and fortune, and after so many years of living in the valley, he has no desire to seek them out. He only wants to get revenge and find his aunt and Grandma Lu. When everything is done, he will definitely return to that valley. ”
Zhang Qingyun came over and said, “Fei’er really knows me, but she just came looking for me. If she wanted to hide, she wouldn’t be able to.”
This time, Lei Yuting was frightened by him and said, “Brother Yun, when did you come over? You’re scaring us to death.”
The fog in the mountain grew thicker. In the thick fog, on the west side of the Great Ba Mountain, there were a few rays of light that were faintly discernible. In a flash in the fog,
Zhang Qingyun said, “Let’s go. Maybe someone found the treasure.”
Miao Rufei called everyone over and they walked towards the west. After a while, Yu Yufeng came over and said, “Why are you guys so slow? We were waiting for you guys.”
Lei Qiuting asked, “Did you find the treasure?”
Yu Yufeng chuckled and said, “That’s not it, it was Valley Master Gongsun who found it.”
Lei Zhaoting pointed at him with her pinky finger and said, “He didn’t say anything, so what are you screaming for?”
Zhang Qingyun walked over to Gongsun Valley Lord’s side and said, “Valley Master Gongsun has lived up to everyone’s expectations. It was found so quickly.”
Gongsun Quan smiled as he cupped his fists and said, “I’m still not sure if it’s the treasure or not. I just found a very strange cave here.” He pointed and walked towards the small hole.
Everyone followed his figure. The hillside in front of them was covered with weeds and mountains. Gongsun Spring opened up his folding fan, and some of the vines actually broke in half. The folding fan could actually be used as a sharp blade. Everyone shouted and gathered their martial arts.
Kicking away the mountain vine, a cave opened up beneath the mountain vine. When Zi Xu looked closer, he saw that the cave was pitch black and the bottom of the cave was bottomless, saying, “Such a hidden place could actually be found by Valley Master Gongsun, it seems like the heavens have blessed my Zhongyuan Martial Forest.” Valley Master Gongsun must have done a great service. Let’s hurry up and start torches, let’s go in and take a look. ”
Gongsun Quan smiled and said, “We all do this for the sake of fellow daoists, how can there be any way to achieve such a feat? Clearing this group of scum with the Life and Death Medallion is something that we are duty-bound to do.”
Everyone raised their weapons and shouted, “Eliminating scum is our duty!”
Lei Qiuting curled her lips and smiled. “Brother Yun, I’m not like you. I’m much more into the limelight than you are.”
Everyone lit their torches and walked in. Zhang Qingyun said, “Let’s go in and take a look as well.”
Not far from the cave, a chilly wind blew from inside. Lei Yuting wrapped up her clothes and said, “It’s so cold inside.”
Zhang Qingyun was startled and rushed to the front. However, there were too many of them, so he couldn’t squeeze through. He asked, “What’s going on inside?” The voice was not loud, but it entered everyone’s ears. There were many people in the cave and it was extremely noisy. Everyone could clearly hear it and could not help but admire this young Sect Leader.
A person’s voice came out of the cave. The one who spoke was Yu Yufeng, “It’s nothing, it’s just a person bitten by a snake.” Now that the snake has been killed, let’s move on. ”
Lei Zhaoting exclaimed, “There’s even a snake inside.”
Miao Rufei said, “It’s not strange to have snakes in this ancient cave. We just need to be careful.”
Another wave of eerie wind blew past, causing Lei Qiuting to feel a chill down her spine. She accidentally looked up at the stone wall and shouted, “Ghost!” before jumping into Zhang Qingyun’s embrace.
Everyone was startled by his shout and looked towards the stone wall. They saw that there was a fierce beast that was baring its teeth and opening its mouth. Suddenly, a large gust of wind blew in from outside, extinguishing a few torches. Suddenly, the cave became pitch-black and another few shouts came from inside.
Someone suddenly said, “Ah, what’s that furry thing on the wall?”
Another person shouted, “It’s a monster! It’s still wet! The monster’s bleeding!”
Zhang Qingyun said loudly, “Everyone, don’t panic. Hurry up and start torching them.”
Immediately, someone said in unison, “Yes, yes, yes. Hurry and light the torches.”
Several torches were lit in the cave. Everyone saw that the furry thing was only the moss inside the cave. The wet thing was the water droplets inside the cave. What kind of monster was this?
Lei Qiuting pointed at the crowd and said, “You guys too, why are you so timid? You’re even afraid of moss.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “It’s okay, let’s move on.”
Gongsun Quan’s voice came from inside the cave, “Sect Leader Zhang, what happened outside?”
Zhang Qingyun said, “Valley Lord, it’s fine, it’s just that the wind blew the torch out. You can continue moving forward.”
Everyone moved forward again. Miao Rufei walked past Lei Zhaoting and said softly, “Who was it that was so scared that she didn’t even dare to move? She even said that other people are cowards.” With that, he chased after Zhang Qingyun.
Lei Qiuting couldn’t help but shiver. She glared fiercely at Miao Rufei, and at the same time, she felt a chilly wind blowing behind her. This caused her to feel a chill run down her spine. He hurriedly chased after Zhang Qingyun and said, “Brother Yun, wait for me.”
There was another commotion, and someone said loudly, “Snake! It’s a snake! There are a lot of snakes here!”
Hearing this, Lei Zhaoting was absolutely terrified. “I’m most afraid of snakes.”
Zhang Qingyun held his hand and said, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”
Seeing them holding hands, Miao Rufei felt an indescribable discomfort in her heart. She walked over and snatched Miao Rufei’s hand away from Zhang Qingyun without a sound. “Come, hold my hand. The snake is not scary at all.”
Zhang Qingyun shouted, “Everyone move aside, let me go up ahead to see what is happening.” Everyone had long admired the young Sect Leader of Dian Cang. They moved to the side, opening up a path from the middle.
Lei Qiuting tried to get away from Miao Rufei. “Who’s afraid? Who wants to hold your hand?” As he spoke, he chased after Zhang Qingyun.
Miao Rufei faintly smiled. Suddenly, she felt much more relaxed as she rushed towards Zhang Qingyun as well.
When Zhang Qingyun arrived, there were more than ten snakes lying on the ground. Yu Yufeng said, “They’ve all been taken care of, let’s go deeper.”
Looking at these snakes, Lei Zhaoting could not help but want to vomit. His stomach was extremely uncomfortable.
Strange sounds came from the cave. Yu Yufeng said, “There are so many snakes in the cave. There must be more.”
Gongsun Quan listened attentively, and heard many different sounds. He frowned and said, “This is not a snake.”
Zhang Qingyun also heard it, “It doesn’t sound like a snake, what would that sound like?”
Suddenly, something flew towards a person’s face. That person shouted, “It’s a bat! So many bats!”
Some of them even threw their torches on the ground.
Zhang Qingyun shouted, “Quick, pick up the torches! Bats are afraid of fire.” There were too many people left, the torch fell to the ground and was instantly extinguished. There were only one or two torches left in the dark cave. It flickered like the flames of hell. With the sound of a bat. This image seemed to bring everyone to their deaths.
Gongsun Quan waved his arm and opened his folding fan. A gale of wind blew out and a large group of bats were struck down by him. Everyone thought to themselves, “This Valley Master Gongsun is really something.” “Everyone, don’t be afraid. If we keep going forward, we might arrive soon. There’s a lot of jewelry waiting for us in front of us. ”
Everyone picked up the torches on the ground. They lit fire at each other. Yu Yufeng looked at the crowd and shook his head, “No wonder Old Daoist Smelly didn’t come. These guys really want money more than their lives, if they really find the treasure then they’ll have to fight each other.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “That won’t happen. With Great Hero Yu and Valley Master Zi, they will definitely be able to shake the masses.”
When he reached the front, the cave suddenly turned around and was sealed off by a large door. Gongsun Quan said, “Bring me the torch.”
Two men holding torches walked forward, and the door was immediately lit up. There was a huge green dragon engraved on the door, and one of the green dragon’s eyes had been knocked into a pit.
Gongsun Quan took out the Azure Dragon Divine Pearl and flicked it right into the Azure Dragon’s eyes. The Azure Dragon Divine Pearl rapidly rotated in his eyes, and with a huff, the door opened. The two big men walked in first. Suddenly, two arrows shot out from the inside, aiming straight at their throats. The two of them instantly fell to the ground, their torches extinguished and the cave turned dark once more.
Yu Yufeng said loudly, “Hurry up and bring in the torch.” Everyone walked around the bend, and the place was lit up again. Gongsun Quan exclaimed, “Where’s the corpse?!” Why is the corpse missing? ”
Someone said, “There’s someone else in there.”
Zhang Qing looked at the ground and saw the clothes of the two dead bodies were still there, but their bones were no longer. The two arrows fell on the ground and shouted, “There’s no one inside, it’s just that the arrows contain a strong poison. This poison was extremely harmful; it could turn a person into a human’s corpse. Everyone, you have to be careful. ”
The crowd looked at the two piles of clothes on the ground, overwhelmed with shock. Zhang Qingyun walked in first, followed by Miao Rufei. “Brother Qingyun, be careful.”
Lei Qiuting said, “This Evil Sovereign is truly evil. He’s already been dead for so many years, and he can still kill people.” Unwilling to fall behind, he also followed.
After walking for a short distance, they met a fierce tiger door. Gongsun Quan stepped forward and said, “This time, everyone needs to be careful. “Step back first,” one of the men said, leaving a torch for him and backing away a few feet. Just like before, the White Tiger Divine Bead was shot into the eyes of the tiger, and the door slowly opened. Everyone was afraid that there might be more poison arrows shooting out, so they all dropped flat on their stomach and shouted, “There’s a centipede! There’s a centipede on the ground!”
Everyone immediately stood up, only to see that the others had already vomited white foam and died on the ground. Dozens of centipedes crawled in from the entrance. Zhang Qingyun immediately took out his Mysterious Sky Sword and swept it across. A whirlwind immediately swirled in the cave and when the sword’s edge swept past, all the centipedes were cut in half.
Yu Yufeng said, “This Venerable One really did hit it hard. He knew that the previous door would cause everyone to be on guard. When all of you were staring at the door, he released all these poisonous creatures on the ground. It’s hard to guard against. ”
Gongsun Quan said, “Are the others okay? If they aren’t okay, then let’s move on.”
Zhang Qingyun turned around and said to the two of them, “The two of you must be very careful. This cave is really weird.”
Lei Miao and Shi Yan nodded their heads, and they walked back into the cave. Lei Qiuting said, “Let’s go in. or we’d be pushed out again, “he said.
Zhang Qingyun nodded his head, but before he finished his sentence, the other heroes had already left. Someone said loudly, “There’s a mechanism within.”
Zhang Qingyun swept his gaze across the faces of everyone present, and saw that they were all ashen faced from fright. Could it be that something bad had appeared in front of them? After squeezing through the crowd, another seven or eight people collapsed on the ground in front of them. He asked, “What happened?”
Gongsun Quan said, “There are also random arrows in this cave. Someone must have accidentally touched the mechanism.”
Yu Yufeng exclaimed, “Look, the corpse is slowly disappearing again.”
Zhang Qingyun bent down to pick up a small stone and threw it in front of him. He felt that there was no movement in front of him. “Everyone, be careful. Follow me slowly.”
They walked deeper into the cave. A door of fire and phoenix appeared in front of him. It was bright red like blood, making anyone who saw it feel terrified. Yu Yufeng said, “Everyone move back quickly. There might be some poison inside. ”
Zhang Qingyun carefully took out the Vermillion Bird Divine Pearl and shot it into the fire phoenix’s eyes. The door opened and Zhang Qingyun immediately dodged to the side. Everyone waited for a long time, but nothing happened.
Gongsun Quan said, “This Evil Sovereign likes to scare people. This place might be fine, everyone can go in.”
When he was about halfway to the house, he felt something on his face. He looked down and saw some cobwebs. Unconsciously, he threw them on the ground. He slowly discovered that his face was very hot. He began to swell up and shouted, “The spiders here are poisonous.”
Everyone shone their torches on the cave walls. The walls were covered with spiders. Someone said, “Don’t touch these webs. These webs are filled with poison.”
Some people exclaimed, “Ah, my face has just hit a spider’s web,” and quite a few began to roll about on the ground, tearing their faces to shreds. In the end, he slowly vomited out black blood and died.
Everyone hated these spiders to the extreme. However, he had no choice but to exit the cave.
Miao Rufei said, “What should we do now?”
Everyone stood in front of the cave. They were afraid of the spiders inside the cave, so they retreated with a feeling of unwillingness.
Zhang Qingyun said, “Everyone, think about it. What are you afraid of?”
Lei Zhaoting said, “I know that spiders are most afraid of fire. They use torches to burn their webs clean. there’s no poison. ”
They all said in unison, “Yes, burn its spider web. “Burn it into an all-consuming shape.
Zhang Qingyun said, “Okay. “Gather all the torches,” more than ten torches gathered together in an instant. Zhang Qingyun held two torches in each hand and said, “Valley Lord, Great Hero Yu, the three of us will go in and burn the spider web.”
The two of them grabbed their torches and rushed inside. Miao Rufei grabbed at them, missing Zhang Qingyun’s sleeves. She said, “Brother Qingyun, you have to be careful.”
Zhang Qingyun turned around and said, “Fei’er, don’t worry.”
The three of them burned the web and spiders inside the cave. Gongsun Quan said, “Everyone, come in quickly.”
Zhang Qingyun raised his head and walked to the door of the godly turtle, saying, “This should be the last door. Everyone, be careful.”
Everyone was trying their best to breathe, and could almost hear each other’s heartbeats. Whether it was a gem or an unknown monster behind the door, everyone was extremely nervous. Seeing Zhang Qingyun shoot the Black Tortoise bead into the eyes of the divine tortoise, everyone’s heart started beating faster. The door opened and a blinding light shone from within. The dazzling light made everyone go crazy. Everyone rushed in like a swarm of bees.
It even pushed Zhang Qingyun onto the stone wall. He said loudly, “Don’t go in yet. It might be dangerous inside.”
Everyone grasped the jewels in their hands and instantly felt that everything that had just happened was worth it. No matter how loud Zhang Qingyun’s voice was, no one could hear it.
Gongsun Quan stood at the door and said loudly, “Everyone, don’t move about with the treasures inside. They have to be used to clear this organization of the Life and Death Beacon.”
Someone inside said, “This is our own reason why we can’t take it.” As he spoke, he continued to grab for gold and silver, as well as jewelry.
All of a sudden, a person fell onto the ground. Everyone was shocked. Someone said, “What happened?”
When everyone saw that he didn’t look out of the ordinary, another person said, “This kid must be overjoyed. He’s overjoyed.” No one cared about him, they only cared about packing their own jewels.
Zhang Qingyun said loudly, “Do you all still have human nature? Seeing your comrades die at your feet, how can you all be so disinterested? You even have the mind to pretend to be rich.”
The crowd couldn’t help but stop. Looking at each other, someone said, “Who is this person? We don’t even know him.”
Yu Yufeng walked in and examined the corpse. He saw that Yu Yufeng’s eyes were bulging and that Yu Yufeng was very excited on the surface. He didn’t seem to have died from poison and said lightly, “This kid is really too excited.”
Strange voices suddenly sounded out in the cave. Someone said, “The dignified Three Hero, Yu Sanniang, did not realize that this person died from poison. “Looks like this old man’s poison can be considered the world’s number one poison …”
Yu Yufeng suddenly turned around. Seeing that everyone was looking in every direction, he loudly shouted, “Who is it?!”
Zhang Qingyun and Gongsun Quan looked at each other, but no one knew where the voice came from.
A crack suddenly appeared on the stone wall, and a man dressed in black walked out from it. Grabbing a piece of jewelry, he said, “Wealth is really touching. These are all mine. ”
Gongsun Quan walked over and asked, “Are you trying to help?” He folded his fan and pointed it at the man in black’s shoulder. He suddenly realized that he couldn’t use any of his strength. He collapsed on top of a box of jewelry.
Zhang Qingyun also felt a little dizzy, so he leaned against the stone wall. Everyone realized that they couldn’t muster up enough strength, so they all sat on the ground.
That black-clothed man said, “Shaolin and those old bald donkeys actually didn’t come. Otherwise, I could have captured all of you in one fell swoop.” He raised his head and laughed.
Zhang Qingyun said, “So all of this was your scheme. You want to use this treasure to swallow up the Central Plains? This treasure is just a shimmer. ”
The man in black said, “That’s right. Everything here was mine in the first place. If it weren’t for me, how could you have found the divine bead and this cave so quickly? When you jumped into this cave, you had already entered the gates of hell. ”
Zhang Qingyun said, “Your plan will not succeed. When the Godly Monk Shaolin sees that we haven’t returned yet, he will definitely send someone to find us. When that happens, it will be the time of your death.”
The black clothed man laughed, “I just want to wait for them to come. I just don’t want to kill you guys because I want them to save you guys and kill you all together. At that time, who can still oppose me? Just thinking about it makes me happy.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “I think the only thing you can do is to think about it and do your daydreaming.”
The man in black shouted, “Men, bring them all down!”
A group of black-clothed men walked out from the crack in the stone. The Violet Cloud Hall Master also walked out from the crack in the stone and walked to Zhang Qingyun’s side and said, “Sect Leader Zhang, we meet again. You never expected to meet here, right?”
Zhang Qingyun said, “I really didn’t expect you to be so sinister. If I knew earlier, I would have killed you.”
The man in black said, “Liu’er, take them away.”
Purple Cloud Pavilion’s head said, “Sect Leader Zhang, my two little sisters, follow me. If you go, you will suffer less.” He turned around and walked into the cave.
Zhang Qingyun followed him in, as did Lei Zhaoting and Miao Rufei. Seeing Zhang Qingyun walk in, everyone stood up and followed in slowly. Everyone knew that if they didn’t go in, what could they do? They might suffer more outside. No matter what was waiting for them inside, they were all close to death. They weren’t even afraid of death, what was there to fear?
