Chapter 192

The morning dew first wet everything, and then evaporated as the sun rose, taking away all the noise of last night.

Fat Jin Ge and his family got up early and began to clean up the B&B they hadn't returned to for a long time.

Tan Wenbin also got up early and helped Fat Brother Jin clean up and chatted with him.

A while ago, Pang Jin's future father-in-law fell ill and was hospitalized. The hospital also issued a notice of critical illness. Pang Jin temporarily put aside his business and took his parents to the hospital to visit him.

The good news is that as soon as Fat Brother Jin went to the hospital to visit, his future father-in-law's condition immediately improved. It was like he turned a corner at the gates of hell and turned back.

This should have been a good thing, but my father-in-law's ten-year-old youngest son, who is also Fat Jin's brother-in-law, heard the custom story from somewhere and actually ran into the mountains alone to pray for his seriously ill father.

The intention was recognized, but the person could not be found.

The reason why Fat Brother Jin has not been able to come back for so long is that he took his parents, helped his girlfriend and her relatives, and went into the mountains to look for someone.

Hearing this, Tan Wenbin looked at the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in the distance through the window of the B&B room.

In the past, we didn’t have to worry too much about kids running around in the mountains. They would just come back happily when they had enough fun. But kids nowadays don’t have that ability.

After searching for many days in a row, several times, everyone was ready to give up, even the future mother-in-law wiped her tears, ready to accept the result. But every time when they were about to give up, they found the child's lost clothes, safety locks and other things.

Fat Brother Jin himself couldn't understand how a ten-year-old child could run so far and so deep without any dry food.

Finally, Fat Jin found the sleeping child in a cave, carried him back, reunited with the search team, and went down the mountain.

Tan Wenbin noticed that when he said this, Fat Brother Jin stuttered a little and his eyes flickered.

Under Tan Wenbin's specific questioning, Fat Jin had no choice but to put down his work and lead Tan Wenbin to the ventilation vent on the second floor, lighting a cigarette for each of them:

"Brother, since you want to listen, I'll tell you. If you believe it, then believe it. If you don't, just think of it as me telling you a story about our trip to Lijiang."

It turned out that Fat Brother Jin went into the mountains with everyone to look for it at first, but as they were looking, one day, he saw a tall figure holding a little boy, standing on the opposite hilltop and looking at him.

The boy's figure resembled his brother-in-law.

Fat Brother Jin was running forward while shouting to others and waving his hands. As he was running, he suddenly found that the others had disappeared, and the figures of the tall and the short were no longer to be found.

As the person who was looking for someone, Fat Jin not only lost contact himself, but also got lost.

This is hard to imagine. When he was a child, he often played in the mountains. After entering the tourism industry, he often worked as a guide, taking tourists hiking in the mountains.

Originally, this item was included in the travel plan of Tan Wenbin's team, and the hiking trip was definitely not to follow a fixed tourist route with steps and stone slabs, but a new path discovered and opened up by the guide himself.

Fat Brother Jin said that he had completely lost his sense of direction at that time. Even when he stood on the hillside and looked around, he could not tell the direction. He only felt that the sky above his head and the mountains around him were so strange.

Fortunately, he had enough dry food with him, and with his rich experience in surviving in the wild, he simply looked for his brother-in-law while trying to find a way out for himself.

Later, either at dawn or at night, he could always see two figures, one big and one small, standing in the distance, looking at him.

He began to get scared, but he had no other choice but to follow the direction they were going each time.

Finally, he entered a valley. In the middle of the valley there was a wide staircase leading upward. All the way up, it was covered in white mist above, and it was hard to tell whether it was snow or clouds.

In the corner at the bottom of the steps, there is a stone temple. The door of the temple is very small, only wide enough for one person to squat inside. But the inside is very high, and there stands a tall and thin stone statue that looks like a man with a long beard and a tail at the back.

And his brother-in-law was lying and sleeping under the stone statue.

He carried the child on his back and took him away. On the way, he could see a tall and thin figure standing in the distance from time to time. He followed the direction of the figure and soon walked out of here and came to the mountain environment that he was familiar with.

When the figure appeared for the last time, he and his brother-in-law knelt down and bowed again and again in the direction of the figure.

The brother-in-law said that he had a long dream. In the dream, Prince Mu took him to many places. When he was hungry, he gave him food. When he was sleepy, he found a bed for him to sleep. He didn't suffer much.

After Fat Jin finished speaking, Tan Wenbin asked with a smile:

"Usually after this kind of story, there should be some small gifts or something, like a golden axe or a silver axe?"

Fat Jin waved his hands and said, "How could that be possible? We are so grateful that we can bring the person back safely."

Tan Wenbin knew he was lying. He must have given something to someone, or picked up something.

It’s understandable if people don’t want to speak.

After finishing the conversation with Brother Fat Jin, Tan Wenbin immediately went to Brother Xiaoyuan to report.

At present, it seems that staying in the B&B was indeed a very correct move. After the first round of competition for the broken jade ended, Fat Brother Jin indeed brought back new clues.

The steps extending to the sky, whether it is a real building or a mirage, are where he and others will go in the next stage.

In the room, Li Zhuiyuan was eating poached eggs with brown sugar.

Conditions are better now, but in previous years, this was a high-end supplement that only women could take during childbirth.

Ever since Li Zhuiyuan melted the piece of red porcelain into his palm, some blood mist would always float out when he cast spells and controlled formations. This detail was noticed by Runsheng.

Therefore, every time Runsheng cooks a big bowl of noodles for himself, he will also make this brown sugar poached egg for Xiaoyuan. He thinks this is the most nutritious.

Zhao Yi was sitting on the floor with a thick bandage on his forehead. He was currently mending his own chest with needle and thread.

Needle and thread kept going back and forth, as if weaving a mosquito net for the black and damaged little heart. From time to time, she had to pick up the scissors and cut off some black and rotten meat.

When Tan Wenbin came in, he happened to see this scene. He felt that only his brother Xiaoyuan could still eat normally after seeing this scene.

Zhao Yi pulled up the thread, brought it to his mouth, bit it off with his teeth, and asked:
"Did you ask?"

"Yeah." Seeing Brother Xiaoyuan nodded, Tan Wenbin repeated what he had heard from Brother Fat Jin.

Zhao Yi stood up and saw Li Zhuiyuan looking at the last egg with a serious expression.

He picked up the bowl and helped him eat, and drank the brown sugar water in the bowl. Then he wiped his mouth and said:

"Lord Mu is probably a folk honorific for mountain spirits or gods of mountains, rivers and lakes. It probably has little to do with the local Mu Palace. It's similar to the title of Northeast Great Immortal."

Li Zhuiyuan: “Yes.”

Zhao Yi continued, "The scene he described should be real, but because of his position, it is inevitably beautified. It sounds like the Heavenly Palace, but there is no Heavenly Palace with a stone statue with a tail at the entrance.

But this should be the place, we have to persuade him to take us there.

Just giving money won't be of much use, after all, it involves supernatural matters.

In this way, we can make a copy of the mark on our palms and show it to him. If I'm not mistaken, there should be a similar mark on the thing he gets.

As long as we can match, the next thing will be easy, leading the way."

Li Zhuiyuan: “Yes.”

Tan Wenbin: "I'll go right away."

After Tan Wenbin left, Zhao Yi smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I've stepped in."

Li Zhuiyuan shook his head: "It's okay, this is all you have left now."

Zhao Yi: "Ha, ha, ha."

This is a fact.

If the clue had come a little later, he could have raised the child with peace of mind.

However, last night is past events and this morning is news.

He had no time to recuperate, so he could only shamelessly rub against it with his broken body.

"Just in case, even if Sun Yan wakes up, we can't take her with us. As for Xu Ming, let him stay here and recuperate."

He, Zhao Yi, knows the rules and does not bring guests home.

Li Zhuiyuan took out the copper coin sword and asked:
"You said last time that this copper coin sword must be used in conjunction with your Zhao family's magic to achieve its maximum effect."

Zhao Yi's face twitched.

"Teach you now?"

"Idleness is also idleness."

"Then you should at least teach me something."

"it is good."

"make a deal!"

Zhao Yi taught Li Zhuiyuan the set of techniques specifically for using the copper coin sword.

Li Zhuiyuan taught Zhao Yi a set of "Xin An Gu Ben Pei Yuan Jing", which is used as an auxiliary to regulate the body and mainly focuses on strengthening the secrets of sex.

After receiving the teachings, Zhao Yi's face turned red again. If he put a kettle on his head at this time, perhaps he could boil water.

But he couldn't say that the young man was dishonest, because the value of this book "Mind Peace, Solid Foundation and Essence Strengthening Sutra" far exceeded the techniques he taught.

After the exchange, Li Zhuiyuan asked again:
"Does your Zhao family have other interesting skills, such as the basic skills of your Zhao family? Let's continue to exchange them to avoid boredom on the way into the mountains."

"Do you still have a lot of these sex techniques?"

"Ah."

There are a lot of books like this in my great-grandfather’s basement.

Moreover, almost every health book has a section on the art of sex.

Our ancestors were very honest and did not shy away from talking about the important purpose of health preservation.

"But what's the point of bringing back so many of these things?"

"Having more branches and leaves is also a family affair, isn't it? Your Zhao family can also save the expenses of Rehmannia Pills."

"That makes sense. But I prefer the Qin Family's Dragon Watching Method and the Liu Family's Qi Watching Method."

"How about the Twelve Laws of Fengdu?"

"want!"

"I only have two or three fragments here. If you want the whole thing, you have to go to Fengdu to burn incense and offer sacrifices to ask for it."

Zhao Yi's eyes widened: "Do you have a grudge against the Emperor of Fengdu?"

The young man's fingertips swayed lightly, and the coin twisted to his rhythm, sometimes turning into a sword and sometimes into a plate.

He concentrated on playing with the coins and said nothing more.

Tan Wenbin was very efficient. When Fat Jin carried his brother-in-law back, he also found a gold ingot under the stone statue. There were carved patterns on the gold ingot, which was exactly the same as the rubbing that Tan Wenbin showed him.

Fat Brother Jin thought that this was the guidance of Prince Mu, and agreed to take them into the mountains to that place.

At the instigation of Tan Wenbin, Fat Jin Ge changed the departure date from tomorrow to noon.

This move not only does not give Zhao Yi's men time to recover, but also does not give the recipient of the first piece of broken jade a chance to breathe.

It’s not clear whether the meal can be served before everyone has arrived, but no one will blame you if you go to the table early and eat some cold dishes and a handful of pistachios first.

After lunch, Fat Brother Jin drove a minibus and took everyone out.

The car was loaded with a lot of local products, which were collected by Fat Jin's parents from their neighbors in the village and sent to their future in-laws.

Originally there were some of these at home, but they were all eaten up by Runsheng and his friends these days.

The first to arrive was the future father-in-law's house, and Fat Brother Jin carried the gifts in.

The future father-in-law was very enthusiastic and invited everyone to stay for dinner.

Tan Wenbin refused and took out his and others' university student IDs, work IDs and other documents. Anyway, it was a set of documents with official seals, and the old man couldn't understand it. He only knew that it was a scientific expedition team coming in to explore.

Fat Brother Jin parked the car at his father-in-law's house. He wanted to remind everyone to prepare supplies, but he saw that each of them had a large mountaineering bag with more comprehensive supplies and equipment than his own. So he said nothing more, waved his hand to lead the way, and headed into the mountains.

The mountain road that I opened up myself is not easy to walk on.

When night fell, Runsheng carried Xiaoyuan on his back so that he could get some rest.

Zhao Yi said that he couldn't walk anymore and asked Lin Shuyou to carry him, and Lin Shuyou didn't refuse.

The group walked until dawn. Fat Jin was already out of breath and felt very tired. He looked back at the people behind him and found that they were still energetic even though they were carrying people on their backs, as if it was no big deal at all.

They found a flat place with a mountain stream, where they stopped to rest and cook some hot food.

Fat Brother Jin secretly told Tan Wenbin that after this tour was over, he would hand over the gold ingot to the government.

After saying that, Fat Brother Jin began to observe Tan Wenbin's reaction carefully.

Tan Wenbin put his arm around Fat Brother Jin's shoulder and said it was up to him. He also chatted with him about his college entrance examination, university life and internship.

He knew that Fat Brother Jin was suspicious and thought that their intentions were not pure. They might be spies or they might be here to dig graves and steal treasures.

Superstitions about ghosts and gods can only work for a while. As time goes by, Fat Brother Jin will definitely be able to taste other flavors himself.

However, with Tan Wenbin's thoughtful comfort, Fat Brother Jin believed their identities and his doubts were dispelled. After eating and taking a short rest, he picked up his energy again and led everyone.

The mountain road is difficult to walk on, but the scenery on the mountain is beautiful, especially during the day, with layers of mountains and snow-capped peaks standing proudly.

Since the children and the injured were all carried, there was no one to hold back, and after traveling day and night, they arrived at the place where Fat Brother Jin had kowtowed last time in the early morning of the third day.

"Now that we've reached this point, I can no longer lead the way, because we have to wait for Lord Mu to show up."

As soon as Fat Jin finished speaking to the crowd, he noticed that everyone's eyes were looking behind him. He immediately turned around and saw two figures, one big and one small, on the hill in front of him.

"Mu...Lord Mu?"

It’s not Prince Mu, it’s Yu Miaomiao and A Yuan.

Since they appeared here, it meant that they had taken back the first piece of broken jade they had thrown away.

That night, when everyone was bluffing and stalling for time on the terrace of the homestay, Li Zhuiyuan was actually paying attention to the compass.

The location where the first piece of broken jade was located stopped for the last short period of time and hardly moved.

This means that an extremely brutal fighting broke out there at that time.

Zhao Yi: "They may have brain problems, but they are indeed very strong, worthy of being from the Dragon King family."

Li Zhuiyuan: "The seriousness here is up for discussion."

Zhao Yi: "You noticed it too?"

Li Zhuiyuan: “Yes.”

"Hasn't your family heard any rumors about the Yu family?"

"You know the situation of the Qin and Liu families. What my family knows may not be as good as what your Jiujiang Zhao family knows."

"Oh, it's different. We have more information, but the news about the top families and sects in the martial arts world only circulates in that small circle. The notes and letters that your old lady can receive are not what our old men are qualified to receive.

However, since this involves the Dragon King's family secrets, it is not so easy to find out. "

It is an open secret among the high-ranking officials of the underworld that the Dragon King Qin Liu has almost been extinct. But even so, with the old lady in charge, no one dares to act rashly.

His Yu family had only been closed for sixty years, not wiped out, so naturally no one dared to get close to see what was going on. The cost of curiosity was too high.

But now is not the time to consider the Dragon King's family.

Zhao Yi: "Guess what their current state is."

There has always been no shortage of unknown heroes in the martial arts world. Even when facing the crowd that night, Li Zhuiyuan also sensed that there were two people who were deducing his formation, and their deduction was very profound, which surprised him a little.

If those two were the main ones and the rest cooperated unconditionally, the maintenance time of their formation would definitely be greatly shortened.

Later, when the time was up, the team that the two people belonged to shouted "Congratulations" as they left.

This is also a recognition of his own attainments in formation. Since there are no longer necessary conflicts and contradictions, a sense of mutual appreciation naturally arises.

Li Zhuiyuan: "He must have been injured."

Zhao Yi: "It is certain that he is injured. The main question is how serious the injury is."

Li Zhuiyuan: "It depends on how calm she pretends to be, or how miserable she pretends to be."

Both of these extremes represent very serious injuries.

Zhao Yi: "Congratulations, you have successfully entered her mind. Don't be unable to get out of it afterwards, haha."

Fat Brother Jin was arranged to stay here. There was a cave nearby, and everyone reserved some more supplies for him, asking him to calculate the time here and wait for them to come out.

Afterwards, without waiting for the real Prince Mu to show up, Li Zhuiyuan and others continued to move forward.

With the two men from the Yu family around, the Wood Prince would not dare to show up. The tail behind the stone sculpture almost indicates its identity.

The most important thing is that since the Yu family was able to get here first, it means that they have mastered a deeper method, and Li Zhuiyuan already knew that the girl had certain information.

Yu Miaomiao and A Yuan didn't stay there waiting for anyone, but they didn't deliberately leave their hiding place either. Instead, they maintained a constant speed.

Before long, the distance between the two sides narrowed.

Yu Miaomiao and A Yuan stopped and turned back to wait. As soon as they stopped, Li Zhuiyuan and Zhao Yi got off Runsheng and Lin Shuyou's backs.

Runsheng stood at the front holding a Yellow River shovel, while Lin Shuyou stood beside him holding a trident.

At the beginning, this position of Lin Shuyou was occupied by Yin Meng, Runsheng was responsible for attack and defense, and Yin Meng played support. But now, Lin Shuyou is obviously more suitable for this role, and Yin Meng has turned to compression of the battle situation.

Tan Wenbin acts as Xiaoyuan's guardian and reserve.

This is the most reasonable tactical configuration for our team at the moment.

The advantage is that the upper limit is very high, and the disadvantage is that it is easy for everyone to collapse after the fight.

The fundamental reason for this phenomenon is the special care that the river water gives to itself.

This time, Li Zhuiyuan had the opportunity to exchange experiences of crossing the river with Zhao Yi, and he clearly noticed the difference in difficulty between the two sides.

Zhao Yi disagreed with this point. He felt that the difficulty level was not much different. He almost died the last time he was in Guizhou.

What Zhao Yi didn't know was that every time Li Zhuiyuan crossed the river, it was basically based on a battle of wits and courage with the person who set the question. He often had a great initiative. In theory, this would greatly reduce the difficulty of each wave.

The difficulty level after it was lowered was the same as Zhao Yi's...

The most obvious example is Xu Yijin.

Because the man in black robe appeared in A'li's dream on his own initiative, he got the broken jade before the wave. He should have suppressed it safely and passed the first round without showing any signs of his presence. However, two groups of people actually moved into the same homestay, and one of them was Xu Yijin.

Yes, that's right, the ending was that he killed Xu Yijin, but the price was that all his men were overdrawn and fell into coma.

Think about it from another angle. If Xu Yijin killed or used herself and others as shields, wouldn't it be a classic scene for her to rise to fame and power by stepping on the Dragon King's family?

Yu Miaomiao threw something over, Yin Meng swung out with a whip and caught it steadily. It was an opened bottle of soda with a straw stuck in it.

In the farm at the foot of the mountain, although there is a big temperature difference between day and night, it is sunny and pleasant during the day. There is nothing wrong with drinking soda, but this is on the mountain and you can see snow nearby. How can you drink iced drinks here?

Li Zhuiyuan handed the soda bottle to Zhao Yi: "Drink it."

Zhao Yi took the bottle, frowned, and didn't dare to drink it. He turned his head to look at Yin Meng behind him.

Yin Meng understood and spread out his hands. The poisonous insect flew out and circled around the mouth of the soda bottle. Then its two tentacles crossed quickly, meaning that something was added inside.

Zhao Yi was both angry and amused: "She actually poisoned the soda."

"Snapped!"

The soda bottle was thrown to the side, the bottle broke, and the liquid inside fell into the snow, dyeing the white snow into various colors and exuding an enticing aroma.

Just smelling it a little makes people feel like they are floating in the air.

This is not poison, it is a tonic, but at certain times, a strong tonic can be like a strong poison, just like no one would take cold medicine before an important exam.

If you drink this, it will definitely nourish and restore your body, but the prerequisite is that you have to sleep for a long time.

What is the difference between sleeping at such a critical moment and being poisoned?
In the distance, Yu Miaomiao stamped her feet angrily and shouted:

"What a precious thing! I'm kind enough to give it to you. If you don't want to drink it, forget it. Why waste it like this?"

Zhao Yi couldn't bear to look at it. What was she thinking? Did she think that this guy named Li would drink with her here?
Yu Miaomiao was dressed neatly, her energy was full, even her hair was combed neatly, but her temperament as a young lady was still strong.

A Yuan, who was standing beside her, was hunched over, his clothes were torn, and he had many wounds on his body. Some of his body still had objects embedded in them that could not be removed, and some of the wounds were so deep that the bones were visible.

There was a big dent on his forehead, in particular. This blow would be fatal to an ordinary person, but he was fine.

Zhao Yi and Li Zhuiyuan looked at each other.

Okay, all correct.

Yu Miaomiao was seriously injured, and A Yuan was also seriously injured.

These two people were indeed very strong, and they successfully fought for the first piece of broken jade at the last moment, but they also paid a huge price for it.

If they had grabbed a piece of broken jade earlier, with their strength, they would not have ended up in such an embarrassing situation. After all, Li Zhuiyuan had set up a formation that made the captors hesitate.

Yu Miaomiao moved her lips slightly and said in a very low voice:
"Yuan, don't worry, they won't be able to figure out our true colors."

Yuan grinned, stuck out his tongue and licked the hideous wound on the side of his face.

In the distance, Li Zhuiyuan's ears moved slightly.

He instinctively wanted to analyze whether this was a deliberate conspiracy, but at the moment, he could only expend a lot of effort to restrain himself from making too many guesses.

I told myself over and over again in my heart not to think too much about her, it’s not worth it.

Zhao Yi raised his hand and made a dice-shaking motion.

Meaning: take a gamble.

Take advantage of her illness and kill her.

Li Zhuiyuan did not respond.

Zhao Yi deliberately shook his body again, meaning that if he could go up and try to scam you, he would create a reasonable and legitimate reason for his action.

The Way of Heaven has eyes, and it has a special influence on the people of Xuanmen, but this is still in the stage of being overcome. However, for those who light the lamps, this influence will be particularly obvious, and the backlash of cause and effect will be extremely clear.

Therefore, that night, anyone who surrounded the B&B who was not a wandering wanderer would most likely have to fight again, even if it was not for anything else but just to vent their anger.

Li Zhuiyuan believed that Zhao Yi had the ability to do so, and he also knew that this guy had not dared to gamble several times and wanted to use his own capital to satisfy his gambling addiction.

But soon, the appearance of a figure with a tail on the front slope interrupted this process.

Prince Mu really appeared.

However, Prince Mu looked a little dazed at this time, and the yellow tail behind him was swaying rhythmically on the snow.

It was under control.

Zhao Yi gritted his teeth, knowing that he had no chance.

The Yu family controlled Prince Mu.

Without it, even if you have an invitation, you won’t be able to find a place to attend the banquet.

Of course, Zhao Yi also knew that this guy named Li would definitely not bet everything at this moment. Even if the other party was seriously injured, he would still be a dying insect. This gamble would not bring any benefit.

Yu Miaomiao also felt very uncomfortable. She originally wanted to be seated earlier, but Prince Mu was elusive and she couldn't control him unless he appeared.

But as soon as he appeared and controlled it, he was hit by the opponent and lost this opportunity.

Yu Miaomiao asked: "Together?"

Li Zhuiyuan said, "Mengmeng, give her an antidote."

Yin Meng: Antidote?

Zhao Yi understood what he meant and immediately shouted, "He's injured, and seems to have been poisoned. It just so happens that there is an outstanding doctor in my brother Xiaoyuan's team who is proficient in pharmacology. Now I'm kind enough to give you good medicine to help you heal your wounds!"

Yin Meng understood and took out a jar of poison that he had just prepared. He threw it up, tied it up with a whip, and then pulled it with the momentum, and the poison jar flew away quickly.

The cute doctor gave out his own antidote.

A Yuan kicked a stone with his toes and it hit the poison jar, causing it to explode in the air. A poisonous mist fell down, not only melting the snow but also corroding a large area of ​​stone.

Yu Miaomiao's face turned cold.

Zhao Yi covered his broken heart:
"How can you fight poison with poison like this? Have you ever heard of this? You are so ignorant. You are just a dog biting Lu Dongbin and you don't know how kind he is!"

Before reaching the destination, we can't fight anymore, but that doesn't prevent me from responding here. It may not have much practical effect, but at least we can disgust each other.

Li Zhuiyuan shouted, "Lead the way ahead. Even if we are going to the banquet, we must uphold the integrity of justice. We suspect that what the host family did is against the will of heaven, and we are about to go and check it out. We hope that you are not in cahoots with them and want to help cover it up."

Zhao Yi blinked when he heard this. He didn't expect that this Li guy was so good at protecting the righteous path.

Yu Miaomiao's chest heaved: "Since you are inviting three families to a banquet, we should go together."

After saying that, she turned around and continued walking with Yuan.

Li Zhuiyuan and others followed behind.

As for the Wood Prince, who was most likely some kind of mountain spirit, he walked in front and led the way.

As you move forward, the scenery around you keeps changing. The environment that you originally saw from afar, when you actually set foot here, you will find that it has changed.

But Li Zhuiyuan did not notice the presence of any formation here, and the feng shui pattern was also very disordered and chaotic.

Therefore, this place should belong to the category of nature's wonders, that is, the so-called secret place.

No one suggested taking a break and everyone kept walking.

Finally, when it was night, we saw the valley that Fat Jin Ge mentioned in his story.

There are indeed wide steps extending from the front, but Fat Jin should have arrived during the day, so what he saw was a fairy-like feeling. But now it is night, the stone steps are deep and dark, and there are faint sounds like weeping.

A small temple stands there, seemingly out of place with its surroundings.

This should be the back cover.

A Yuan waved his hand and released his control over King Mu. King Mu knelt on the ground, his body trembling, blood constantly flowing out of his eyes, ears, mouth and nose. He looked back at everyone with deep resentment in his eyes.

Zhao Yi sighed helplessly: "This makes us hate him too."

Li Zhuiyuan: "It must have found this precious land and borrowed it to practice cultivation. It was indeed an unprovoked disaster."

They were able to send Fat Jin's brother-in-law away safely, which was a good thing, but in return, they were bullied by the Yu family.

Zhao Yi and Li Zhuiyuan both suspected that something had happened to the Yu family, and it was based on this, because given the Dragon King family's style of doing things, the details would not be so rough and domineering.

A Yuan seemed to be glaring at Prince Mu, who was startled and immediately knelt down, kowtowed to A Yuan and begged for mercy.

This should be some kind of natural suppression, and it is also the reason why the Yu family can control monsters.

A Yuan let out a low growl from his throat, and Prince Mu turned around and went into his own small temple.

Then, Yu Miaomiao looked back at Li Zhuiyuan and others, stepped onto the stairs, and A Yuan followed closely behind.

When Li Zhuiyuan passed by the small temple, he saw King Mu curled up and shivering at the door of the tiny temple. His human appearance was fading, yellow hair was appearing on his face, and his eyes were becoming rounder and rounder.

Its true form is a weasel.

At this moment, there was both fear and resentment in its eyes.

Li Zhuiyuan looked at it and said to it, "You are a human."

The weasel was stunned, then its body trembled and the hair on its face gradually faded away.

When Zhao Yi passed by, he also added: "You are a human being."

The weasel's eyes gradually became like human eyes.

It knelt down again, the resentment in its eyes gone, leaving only gratitude.

When everyone went up the stairs, Zhao Yi smiled and said, "I didn't realize you were so soft-hearted."

Li Zhuiyuan replied calmly: "It saved Fatty Jin and the child, so we know this place. This is a cause and effect."

Zhao Yi: "After this is over, let's have a good discussion about this when we have time. I think you are keeping something from me."

Li Zhuiyuan: "Sure, exchange it for Jiujiang Zhao Benjue."

The steps were very secluded but not too long. When you reached the platform, you would see three large stone doors in front of you.

The stone gate is embedded in the rock wall, blending in with the mountain peak. Different murals are engraved on it, giving it a simple and ancient feel.

The murals have been weathered and although they are mottled, they still retain their charm and you can clearly see what is painted on them.

But the closer you look, the more frightening it becomes.

Zhao Yi: "I saw a lot of people I met recently, and some people I tricked to death."

Zhao Yi was very active these days and came into contact with many people.

Li Zhuiyuan didn't come into contact with many people, but he saw five familiar people on the murals, namely Xu Yijin and the four people who originally lived on the second floor and were killed on the first night.

The images of all those who died in the fight for the broken jade were imprinted on it.

Li Zhuiyuan remembered that one night, several shadows appeared at the place where Tan Wenbin buried Xu Yijin and others.

At that time, Yu Miaomiao should have asked A Yuan to try to attack the phantom, but it didn't have any effect.

On the stone gate on the left, the images of the dead people are very violent, crawling on all fours like wild beasts, biting and fighting.

On the middle stone gate, the images of the dead people are quiet and peaceful, even a little dull, standing in an orderly queue, following closely.

On the stone gate on the right, the dead are arranged in several layers from top to bottom. Some are holding hands, while others are standing alone, forming a formation.

Zhao Yi: “Oh~”

After saying "Oh", Zhao Yi stopped talking, because he knew that what he could see, the boy next to him could also see.

Li Zhuiyuan's eyes swept over the three stone gates again, representing from left to right: beast taming, puppets, and formations.

What is this, the hospitality of the host?
Li Zhuiyuan looked thoughtful. If this was really one of the nine secret realms, it would mean that this area had existed for a long time. However, the black-robed zombie in A'li's dream had a grudge against the ancestor Dragon King, and he also said that the entire clan would ascend here.

So, someone later occupied this secret place and built this place?

Behind the three doors, it definitely does not imply inheritance, but should represent some kind of danger after entering. However, blessing and disaster have always been interdependent. Whatever danger you encounter, you will also have the chance to gain some opportunity in the corresponding danger.

Heaven likes to give a slap in the face and then give a sweet treat. This should be the place to give the sweet treat.

Yu Miaomiao placed her palm on the stone door on the far left. The mark was triggered and the stone door slowly turned, opening one third.

As a member of the Yu family, she would definitely choose to tame beasts.

However, she did not rush in, but turned to look at Li Zhuiyuan and Zhao Yi:

"Let's make a deal. Choose this door. You can tell me what you want."

The door was only one-third open, so she could go in, but she was still not satisfied.

This means that if you choose from three doors with three invitations, all of them can be opened, but to different degrees.

More votes mean greater danger, but also greater opportunities.

No wonder she came to me and asked to be the boss. It turned out that she wanted to collect votes here.

Seeing that Li Zhuiyuan and Zhao Yi did not respond, Yu Miaomiao spoke again: "Dragon King Yu, thank you for your kindness this time!"

Li Zhuiyuan was too lazy to look at her.

Zhao Yi covered his heart.

Yu Miaomiao said bitterly: "Remember, you are the ones who are shameless!"

After saying that, she walked into the first door, and Yuan followed her.

Zhao Yi: "This place is good, it can support people."

Li Zhuiyuan: “Yes.”

Then, Li Zhuiyuan looked at Zhao Yi and said, "You choose first."

Zhao Yi pointed to his bandaged forehead, which was the gap between his life and death:
"If I had to choose, I would definitely choose the formation. This will benefit me the most. I'd like to experience it."

Li Zhuiyuan: "Okay, go ahead."

Lin Shuyou put Zhao Yi down from his back.

Tan Wenbin, like a welcoming guest, made a gesture to help lead the way:
"Master Zhao, please."

"Hahahahaha!"

Zhao Yi laughed so hard that his heart ached.

In his current sickly state and without any companions, if he went in alone, he would be crushed to death by any simple formation.

“I’m just kidding, I’m just kidding, I’ll definitely choose the puppet.

My brother Zhuiyuan is young and cannot practice martial arts for the time being. If he can master some advanced puppetry techniques, it would be a great benefit!"

As he spoke, he trotted over and placed his palm on the stone door, which opened one third.

Li Zhuiyuan also stepped forward and put his palm on it, and the stone door continued to open, opening to two-thirds.

Xu Yijin's puppetry is useless to her, and can even be said to be good-looking but useless.

I hope what's in here won't disappoint me.

"go in."
