Ancient Sword II: The Tracking of the Fierce Mountain

Chapter 15: Collection

On the top of the poor mountain, behind the sea of ​​clouds, under the vigorous ancient pines, there are two figures standing, their robes fluttering.

It's just that one of them is wearing a navy blue robe, and the other is in a black suit. It seems that two people from time and space are overlapping at this moment, but it is not abrupt when you look closely.

"I got this by accident as a teacher, you can take it." A piece of worn parchment was taken by another person.

"This is……"

"What they need." The voice of the man in ancient costume was mellow and calm.

"Master didn't go down the mountain, why did he..."

"It's just a gift from an old friend."

"Disciple understands."

The man in ancient costume gave a relieved smile, glanced at the red sun that was gradually setting in the west, and said: "It's getting late, you can go down the mountain."

The man in a suit nodded: "Disciple farewell," but bent down and performed an ancient ceremony, "I hope Master will take care of you."

"Go, if there is trouble, I will always be here as a teacher."

The man was taken aback for a moment, then raised the corners of his lips: "Yes, disciple understands."

**********

The cemetery of the goddess is located on a high platform. If you look closely, it looks like a mountainside, but even the mountainside is flat and open.After being reminded by the goddess, Shen Ye and Xie Yi decided to go up, and the closer they got to the mountain wall, they realized that their previous thinking was wrong. This is not a high mountain, but a mountain wall.

The tomb of the Goddess is conveniently located under the mountain wall. As it goes up, the vegetation gradually thins out, and further up, it is directly connected to the top of the tomb. I think Shen Ye and the others are still in the tomb passage of the ancient Dian Kingdom after they fell down. Inside the mountain wall, I'm afraid it can lead to the core of the cemetery.

And the fact is indeed the case, if it wasn't for a coincidence that Xie Yi activated the Yanjia and changed the mechanism of the tomb passage, then Shen Ye and others would have fallen directly to death if they were plotted by Na Luofu.

The tomb of the Goddess, which can't be found everywhere, is actually under the ancient Dian Kingdom full of resentment.

But it would be good to meet again, and the hard pursuit in the past can be regarded as rewarded.

Xie Yi, however, fell into his own thoughts. Although the Lieshan tribe is much better than before, the death of the prime of life must be resolved in time. The six keys have not yet been found. The ancient Dian kingdom is the first clue. Then For the remaining five, I should also be obliged.

He glanced at Shen Ye with a stern face, but it will be a difficult problem to convince the master, and his body is also...

Sensing Xie Yi's gaze, Shen Ye turned his head: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Xie Yi smiled and shook his head, "Master, do you want to rest?"

Shen Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, and lifted the unconscious person on his shoulder: "No, this person doesn't weigh much." But it turns out that Xiao Meng hasn't woken up since he was knocked unconscious, and he can't be left alone By the lake, only two people can take it away.

Shen Ye would never allow Xie Yi to help, and Xie Yi, who felt deeply that his master regarded him as a porcelain doll, shook his head. In the end, Shen Ye frowned and carried Xiao Meng up first, like a cloth bag.

As for the reason why Xiao Meng hasn't woken up until now, in fact, it can be seen from his increasingly livid face - Shen Ye's gentleness has never been available to only a few people.

Along the way, there is no danger except that the vegetation becomes sparser and the road becomes narrower and more difficult.And at the end of the road, the place connected to the top of the tomb, even if you just look at it from a distance, you can see a gray mist, and there seems to be a crisis hidden in it.

Looking at the top of the tomb, Xie Yi covered his mouth when he lowered his head, a trace of pain flashed across his face, and then he put down his hands and walked up as if nothing had happened, because he deliberately took a step back and fell behind Shen Ye. The abnormality was not noticed by the other party.

Before reaching the top of the mountain wall, in the slightly barren gravel land, a cave suddenly appeared.The cave seems to have been dug at will, and its shape is very irregular. Some stones are scattered around, but they don't block the mountain path, which seems to be left over from the excavation.

Looking up, the mountain road still stretches upwards, hidden in the gray mist.

When Shen Ye came to the entrance of the cave, he threw Xiao Meng out from his shoulders, and then retracted his feet one by one, placing him right beside the cave without leaning to one side or the other.

It's just that the "boom" when it hit a hard object is still hard to ignore.

Xie Yi shook his head helplessly: "Master."

Shen Ye was expressionless.

But Xie Yi knew that Xiao Meng was fine, so naturally he wouldn't say too much: "What is Master's plan next?"

"Stay here and talk about it," Shen Ye said, "When we first came, we set off as a group, at least we need to gather some people before we leave."

Xie Yi nodded, and sat down on the side of the road with Shen Ye to rest.Afterwards, he casually looked into the depths of the cave, and saw that it was dark inside, but he could vaguely feel the oncoming breeze, lifting a few strands of hair.It's just that the wind from this cave doesn't smell clean, it doesn't have the smell of dust that has been trapped for a long time, but it has a suffocating sour smell, and it doesn't seem to be rotting animals and plants. In short, it is full of yin.

But behind him is completely different. I don't know if it is caused by the divine power of the goddess. Looking down, there is a thriving green, clear and refreshing.Even if it is far away, even if the forest is dense, you will not feel that there is danger lurking in it. Such a clean place, if it is not for the goddess, it will be difficult to keep it.

In the distance, there is the same mountain wall, but it is far away, and some people can't see it clearly. The hazy mist is lingering. I don't know if it is just an ordinary cliff.

Shen Ye also looked at the huge figure hidden in the smog. When he first came, he only saw a black shadow, which was the place where he was now. He came all the way to the tomb of the goddess. As for the opposite mountain Wall, why didn't I see it before?Shen Ye, who knew well that his memory was infallible, just ignored it later because his eyes dimmed. After all, there was no need to search for it at this moment.

Between two mountain walls, the tomb of the Goddess is a huge hole in the ground. It also feels like a paradise, but it has already been crumbled and decayed.

"I don't know where Wuyi is now." Xie Yi said, and heard that Wuyi also came here, and then separated from the master. Even though there is no danger in the tomb of the goddess, he is still a little worried.

"He has always been blessed with great fortune, so there is no need to worry." Shen Ye has always been open to this apprentice, Sun Yi.

Xie Yi smiled: "However, I never thought that in this life, Master would actually take Wuyi under his wing."

"It's your sect." Shen Ye corrected lightly.

Xie Yi smiled again, looked at the vast green under his feet and said, "I don't know if that silly boy can come here."

Shen Ye said: "If you want to go out, you can only go up. If there is no reminder from the goddess, we will do so. Even if it is Le Wuyi, it is not so stupid."

But is it possible to run to the other side?This was out of Shen Ye's consideration.If he can't wait for others, it's not impossible for him and Xie Yi to go out first, but thinking about the possibility of leaving Le Wuyi and leaving, it's very slim.

There is no need to say more about the two masters and apprentices waiting for the crowd to gather. After all, they still have too much to say. Of course, it is impossible for Le Wuyi on the other side to go to the other side of the mountain. After all, at this moment From his point of view, there is an empty space in the back, which is an endless emptiness, only the black shadow in the distance, like a mountain but not a mountain, attracts all his attention like a guidepost.

The corpses of Huang Rui and Huang Rui, even if they wanted to bury them again, they didn't dare to touch the dark appearance, so Le Wuyi and Xiao Zhao could only find some branches and leaves, and put the two bodies together. When it is covered, it is considered buried.

Le Wuyi, who felt a little guilty in his heart, and Xiao Zhao, who was full of sadness, finally left after the worship, and did not see a few mushrooms popping up among the layers of covered branches and leaves. Those mushrooms were very small , but elongated strangely at a speed visible to the naked eye.

When the mushroom was as thick as an arm and more than half a foot high, the branches and leaves rolled up again as if there were living things swimming in it, and then several thick vines came out and crushed towards the mushrooms.

While the thick vines were tumbling, there were still some mushrooms that would rather die than surrender, but the vines seemed to be spiritual, and branched out into several twigs, which looked like human palms rising upwards, and did not miss any of the mushrooms. shot down.

After a while of "snuffing" and rolling, the two piles of branches and leaves that had been raised because of the corpses disappeared completely.

Le Wuyi didn't know what happened to the corpse, nor did he know that at this moment, the members of the Huang clan scattered around the tomb of the goddess, like him, were heading towards the only mountain wall they could see.As if attracted, they involuntarily chose the same direction.

Therefore, it was logical to meet Huang Jue again on the way, but Le Wuyi wailed in his heart why he was not his master.

Thinking of not meeting the Grand Master all this way, Le Wuyi felt inexplicably abandoned, so he was depressed all the way, but after passing a lake and seeing the rock standing by the lake, his mood was obviously better a lot.

It was a smooth rock, which seemed to have been washed away by the water for many years, and its edges and corners were peeled off. There were a few bold characters engraved on it: "The exit is above: Shen Ye", and Le Wuyi recovered when he saw these words. With some vitality, the exhaustion along the way seemed to be forgotten, so he ran to the mountain wall happily.

Huang Jue stopped near the rock for a long time, he touched the rock, the surface was smooth and hard, so what tool did Shen Ye use to carve these words?

"Boss Huang?" The members of the Huang clan behind him were a little puzzled.

"It's okay." Huang Jue shook his head, "Let's go."

Le Wuyi was not as excited as usual because he could finally see the grand master. When he thought of the two corpses he saw before, he felt that he had too much to tell the grand master.Therefore, he was full of energy, and he just rushed Huang Jue and his party by a long way.

Le Wuyi could almost be said to be walking up by running, and finally saw the familiar black corner of the mountain road.

At that moment, Le Wuyi almost burst into tears. What is the feeling of this little bird finally seeing the father bird?But Le Wuyi can't control that much anymore.

"Grand master—!" With a loud roar, the man turned his head in response, but he had an extremely handsome and gentle face.

Seeing Le Wuyi, the man was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled, his appearance was like a radiance, shining through people's hearts.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment, Le Wuyi stared blankly at Xie Yi, feeling his face heat up inexplicably.
