Chapter 4: Passing through the mountains

Is this the medicine you mentioned?

Le Mingzhu fiddled with the red and green pills in her palm with some suspicion, and sniffed curiously.What a strange fragrance.

The special fragrance of Magu drifts away in the air.Cheng Zongyang breathed, and the temple on the right began to hurt again.

This is the medicine on Duan Qiang, mixed with ecstasy.Ningyu hasn't taken it again for a while.

Except for the first two days, Ning Yu did not show much discomfort, which made Cheng Zongyang think that she could resist the addiction of the drug - after all, she didn't take many doses before and didn't take them very long.

It was not until this time that Cheng Zongyang discovered that drugs like Magu, which are highly addictive, have a kind of lethality for people in this world who have never experienced modern industrial pollution.

Before being injured, Ning Yu would leave the team for a while every day, and Cheng Zongyang thought it was just her quirk.

Thinking about it now, maybe Ning Yu deliberately avoided their sight so that she would not be seen as losing her composure when she was drug addiction attack.

When leaving Xionger Shop, Ning Yu may have gradually gotten rid of drug addiction.

But then, she was injured in a fight with the Ghost King Dong warrior.

Along the way, Ning Yu not only suffered physical injuries, but also suffered from drug addiction every day.

Under her calm surface, I don’t know how much pain is hidden.

Even Cheng Zongyang was out of breath during this journey of the cave, which consumed Ning Yu a lot of energy. Even so, Ning Yu still tried his best to suppress the pain in his body until he could no longer support it.

Cheng Zongyang's lips were closed tightly. It was my fault. This sentence had already reached his mouth, but he didn't say it.

If it is useful to admit mistakes, he can admit ten thousand mistakes.

Le Mingzhu looked at the two pills repeatedly, and she was very delicately made... What is this?

Cheng Zongyang hesitated for a moment: Drugs.

Le Mingzhu pulled out the hairpin from her hair and tried it. It seemed that it was not poisonous?

It's not a poison, but it's more powerful than poison.

Cheng Zongyang found it difficult to explain what drugs were to people of this era, so he had to think: Do you know anyone likes to drink?

Le Mingzhu smiled so hard that her eyes bent: My master likes drinking the most. Like the thin man in your caravan, he keeps a wine gourd all day.When the wine gourd was dry, I sneaked out to make wine.The master always said that you should use the secondary medicine to treat your uncle's alcohol addiction.Hey, are you saying that this medicine can also be addictive?

Much like, but more powerful than alcohol addiction.

Cheng Zongyang said: Please think of a way to remove the toxicity in Ningyu's body.

Le Mingzhu said in embarrassment: I have never seen this poison before.and……

Le Mingzhu said embarrassedly: I am learning medical skills and am not very good at detoxification.

Cheng Zongyang said: Guangming Guantang has unparalleled medical skills in the world. What poison can stump the disciples of Guangming Guantang?

I trust you.

Wu Er got Miluo Juice and almost lost his life. As a result, Pan Jinlian only used one pill to resolve it, which made Cheng Zongyang feel a lot of confidence.

Now the only one who travels with him is Le Mingzhu. Regardless of whether he can succeed or not, he is at least better than them.

After being praised by Cheng Zongyang, Le Mingzhu proudly put her waist on her waist. Do you also know that the medical skills of our Guangmingguan Hall are unparalleled in the world?There is no poison in the world that can stump our Guangming Temple!Don't worry!

She said this, but Cheng Zongyang became a little worried.

Le Mingzhu helped Ningyu up unconscious and said in surprise: Sister Ning is so light.

The faint mist of fire and fire floated among the branches and leaves of the mountains and forests, and countless dense leaves were intertwined.

The leaves were big and thin, as if a green and transparent varnish was shrouded in the sky above my head.

The morning sun shines through this layer of veil and becomes soft and full of vitality.

Going down, there are shrubs with papaya and pineapple, dense branches and leaves, and lush grass vines...

The layers of complexity form a plant world full of onion dragons.

After walking in the dark and cold cave for a few hours, I suddenly saw the green all over my eyes, and everyone felt a little joy in my heart.

Even Su Li couldn't help but bend down, pick a bright red flower from the flowers and put it on her temples, turning her head to smile at Wu Erlang, making Wu Er smile foolishly like a goose.

Cheng Zongyang was too lazy to pay attention to the two of them. He waved his knife to cut off a fan-shaped fern leaf, and then widened his eyes.

The caravan was walking at the foot of a big mountain, and in front of them was a long canyon.

The streams flowing from mountains on all sides form a series of lakes of all sizes in the valley, like countless crystal pearls scattered.

In the middle of the valley, a huge crescent-shaped lake is like a cut-off jade bi embedded among the mountains.

The white mist gradually dissipated, and a strange mountain appeared in the crescent-shaped lake's arch.

The mountain is so steep that it is like a woman sitting bent and sideways.

She held her hands behind her head, raised her head, and her body tilted slightly to one side, her curved legs half immersed in the lake, as if she had just come out of the blue waves, her long hair was combed casually, and the lazy and graceful strata exposed the beautiful curves of her body.

You can see the stone houses and bamboo houses on the cliff from afar, but all this did not destroy the beauty of the mountain, but added a lot of vitality to her, appearing gentle and passionate, no longer a cold rock.

That wonderful and vivid state made Cheng Zongyang suspect that this was a work of art deliberately carved by someone, but its huge scale far exceeds the scope of manpower.

The mountains are covered with green pine and cypress and beautiful flowers and plants, and there is no trace of axe and chisel, which makes people have to marvel at the wonders of nature.

Cheng Zongyang turned his head and said: Old Man Zhu, is this what you are talking about to break the mountain?Broken pool?

Old man Zhu, goatee, Hu Yiqiao: Isn’t that true!Don’t look at the beautiful appearance of the water, it’s all scamming!The green ones are all aquatic plants, and the water is only more than two feet deep, and the bottom is full of mud.People are trapped in and can’t even get it!

Yun Cangfeng was silent for a moment, and after a long time, he whispered: It turns out that this cave can really lead to Baiyi.When I was young, I sent people to explore the cave several times, but all of them went there and never returned.

He shook his head and sighed.

Old Man Zhu laughed twice.Although I just came out, I, Zhu Baba, dare to make a promise!Now that you are turning back, none of you can walk back!There are hundreds of large holes in this cave, thousands of small holes, large holes are set with small holes, front holes and back holes, and an ant can be placed at one hole. It can empty the ant nest, even if the gods can't get out of it.

Xie Yi raised his face and looked at the mountain in the valley that looked like a beauty coming out of the bath, as if he was immersed in this rare beauty, without making any sound for a long time.

Qi Yuan also came over: Brother Yun, does the legendary Baiyi Pearl come from here?

Yun Cangfeng nodded and said: Not bad.The Baiyi Pearl is a lake pearl, which comes from this lake. It can produce several dou of beads every year, with red and white colors. The small ones are like rice grains, and the large ones are more than an inch. The most precious ones are the night pearls.

Everyone showed a look of yearning, but only Cheng Zongyang disagreed.

In the world he once lived in, pearls have long been no longer precious due to large-scale artificial breeding.

Similar corals have changed from treasures to cheap crafts.The Baiyi tribe's Huzhu has no attraction to him.

Xie Yi opened his eyes from the mountain and said with a smile: Brother Cheng doesn’t want to find a night pearl to bring it back?

Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: Thank you, I can't stand that thing.

The legendary treasure often mentions the Night Pearl, but for Cheng Zongyang who has traveled through time, no matter how good the Night Pearl is, it is not as good as an ordinary light bulb.

Besides, he knew that most objects that emit fluorescent naturally were radioactive and wearing them on them would risk cancer.

Yuncang Peak is a regular customer here. He could tell the direction at a glance, leading everyone around the lake and winding towards the mountain where the beauty was bathing.

When approaching, Cheng Zongyang saw that the lakes were as Old Man Zhu said. The water was covered with water plants, and the dark green grass leaves were floating slightly in the water, so soft that people couldn't help but want to lie on it.

From time to time, you can see a few clam shells in the aquatic plants, which are gray and black inconspicuous.Shi Gang and a few slaves were walking and joking: There are pearls in the clam shell, and the smallest one can be sold for several silver baht.

A young slave opened his eyes wide, really?

Of course it is true. If you don’t believe it, go and ask Brother Qi’s Fourth!

The slave looked at the lake as he walked. The lake water was clear and the clam shells seemed to be at his feet, within reach.

He couldn't help but get into the lake, bent down and snatched a clam shell, and shook it in his ear: No Ah?

Shi Gang laughed: You can shake a lot of things, just smash it open!

When Yun Cangfeng heard the laughter, he looked back and changed his face and shouted: Don’t move!

The slave held the clam shell and turned around and wanted to go ashore to find a stone to smash it open, but found that his feet were stuck in the mud and could not be pulled out.

He couldn't help but panic and tried hard to pull his feet out.But as soon as he exerted force, the deeper the other foot fell.

The slave had just stepped into the lake and was not obvious. At this time, he struggled at first, and the sinking speed was accelerated. At first, the mud only crossed the instep and fell to the position of his calf in a blink of an eye.

Shi Gang on the shore reached out to pull it, but he was a few inches away from the structure. Shi Gang was so anxious that he shouted: Extend his hand quickly!

The slave only took two steps from the shore, but these two steps became an insurmountable distance.

Just as Yun Cangfeng opened his mouth, Qi Yuan also found that something was wrong. He threw away the reins and ran over. At this time, the mud had already flooded the slave's thighs, leaving only half of his body on the lake.

then!

Wu Zhanwei threw a roll of rope over.

Shi Gang jumped up, grabbed the rope, shook it away, threw it over, threw it on the slave, and shouted: Hold it quickly!You are stupid!Don't throw it away!

The slave stood in the lake with his clam shell in both hands, at a loss, and was thrown down by him in a hurry, while picking up the rope and trying to wrap it under his armpit.

But he had a disability in one hand and did not entangle it several times.

In just a moment, he sank about a foot down, and it was already sinking into his chest.

Shi Gang stared and shouted: Who is carrying the long sword?The horse stick is also done!quick!

With a shout, Yi Biao threw a spear behind the team.

Shi Gang took it and handed it to the lake, but was stopped by Qi Yuan and whispered: It's too late.

Shi Gang said anxiously: What's the late one!He pulled him up with force!

The sludge suction is very strong.When it sinks to the waist, the person can't pull it.

Qi Yuan whispered: If you use force, you will only pull him into two sections.

Shi Gang was stunned.

The mud gradually sank under the slave's neck, and the thick green aquatic plants stretched in the water, like a soft green blanket, warmly wrapping his body.

The slave tried hard to tighten the rope and said: Save me...

The tiny figure disappeared into the clear lake water bit by bit, and finally only a string of fine bubbles rose from the aquatic plants.The lake water is still calm, as if nothing has happened.

Everyone looked at the lake in silence.Finally, Qi Yuan cut off the rope with a knife and whispered: Let's go.

Don’t be greedy for unexpected wealth.

Old Man Zhu said earnestly: If you are not careful, you will lose a lot if you lose your life.

Shi Gang lowered his head and said nothing.

Seeing Cheng Zongyang frowned, Xie Yi rubbed his temples with one hand and asked: What?Is there a headache?

Cheng Zongyang shook his head.

He still remembered that slave, a very thin young man, was injured by a hammer in one hand because of the drill.

I picked him up to take this trip to the Southern Wilderness. I originally wanted to be more convenient when I left, but I didn't expect it to be a waste of his life.

Even businessmen are afraid of something happening, but life and death are inevitable.

Yun Cangfeng said slowly: We are always in the words of the Southern Wilderness: Life and death are fate, and wealth and honor are in heaven.

Everyone walked around the crescent-shaped lake and approached the peak from behind.

When looking from the front, the mountain is not very dangerous. The beautiful woman's legs together stretched into the lake, and the slope was gentle.

The back was extremely steep, and it was no less than the sky vine they had walked. There was only a zigzag path circling up the mountain wall.

Hua Miao people who had been walking in front fell to the end of the team at this time.

Su Li held the hilt of the knife with one hand and looked solemn. The flower girl behind her calmed down and hugged the petite figure in the middle of the team tightly.

The enthusiasm and cheerfulness of the Huamiao people left a deep impression on Cheng Zongyang.

But these generous Huamiao people have extraordinary stubbornness in some things.

Until now, they have not revealed their purpose and asked the caravan for help.

Although they received conclusive news that the Ghost Witch King had no servants or guards around him, it would be a huge adventure to get rid of this king of the Southern Wilderness just by relying on them.

But not only did not retreat, but they were always so happy, as if they had put life and death aside.

Le Mingzhu, wearing a veil, looked like a shy bride, lowering her head slightly, but her black eyes kept turning around, looking at the scenery in front of her curiously.

Ningyu is also in the Huamiao people's team.

In the cave, Le Mingzhu massaged Ningyu's acupoints with a special technique, and Ningyu fell into a deep sleep.

The women of the flower seedlings weave a delicate stretcher with rattan and leaves, carrying her all the way.

Fortunately, Ningyu's body is light and not very difficult.

Almost everyone knows that Baiyi is one of the richest tribes in the Southern Wilderness.

In this valley that is difficult for outsiders to approach, not only the precious Baiyi Lake beads are produced, but also rich in gold and beautiful jade.

Every year, the Yun Chamber of Commerce spends a lot of manpower to trade goods and trade the Baiyi people's gold pearls and treasures.

Looking up from the foot of the mountain, you can see a stone fort on the side of the mountain. The stone fort is not tall, but the terrain is extremely steep and is blocking the end of the only mountain road. Only by passing it can you enter the territory of the Baiyi tribe.

Qi Yuan had been curious about the Baiyi tribe for a long time, and he could not help but be amazed when he witnessed it with his own eyes.Compared with the simple villages in the southern desert, this place is simply an urban city.

Xiao Wei pointed to the mountain and said: It seems that there is a woman in white clothes there, looking at us!

Wu Zhanwei photographed him: You are not dazzled, right?You have done a lot of things with that Huamiao girl these days, and you still have the heart to look at other women?

Xiao Wei muttered: It's really true!Why did it disappear in a blink of an eye?

A handsome bird emerges from the deep mountains.

Wu Zhanwei teased: It is said that the most beautiful woman in the Southern Wilderness is the only one who is the Bai Yi.The customs of Baiyi are similar to those of flower seedlings, maybe you can find something you like.

Xiao Wei laughed, there was no interface.

Qi Yuan was worried.

He whispered: Xiao Wei, aren't you moved?I tell you that this kind of thing cannot be taken seriously unless you want to live in the mountains of the Southern Wilderness for the rest of your life.

Xiao Wei lowered his head and fiddled with the crossbow machine, and after a while, he said: That's nothing wrong.

Qi Yuan laughed dryly: Nanhuang has a strong evil spirit. Ordinary people will end up staying here for the first half of the year. After living for a long time, they will become half-human and half-demon monsters.

Xiao Wei was bored for a while and said with some dissatisfaction: Isn’t that old man okay?

Qi Yuan smacked his lips. That guy is so old-fashioned. He is a living monkey when he is stuck with hair. How about you compare with him?

The team was getting closer and closer to the stone fort, and Cheng Zongyang took care of Ning Yu for a while, and then came immediately.The gate of the stone fort was closed and no one could be seen.

Yun Cangfeng said: Bai Yi is cautious by nature, and the gate of this stone castle is usually locked.Even if outsiders come here, they may not be able to enter.

Old Man Zhu snorted: Why are you cautious by nature?Just timid!They were all born from rabbits, and they got into the hole after a little turbulence.Let me say that the most useless thing in the Southern Wilderness is them!

Cheng Zongyang said in surprise: Old Man Zhu, don’t you have a grudge against the Baiyi people?

What hatred?

Old Man Zhu angrily said: I, Old Man Zhu, just dislike these dead rabbits!I was met outside, but I saw that I didn’t have one hand and I was slapped to death!

Cheng Zong blew and chewed.

Yun Cangfeng smiled and said: The Baiyi people have never been known for their bravery.But although the Baiyi people were a little weaker, they never bowed to anyone.You can tell if you look at this mountain. Not to mention the people in the Southern Wilderness who even had to buy iron tools from outside, even the Northern Palace soldiers of Jin may not be able to conquer them.

Yi Biao held the knife in one hand and stood by Yun Cangfeng.

After Yi Hu was swept away by the flood, he became the core of these soldiers.

This generous and enthusiastic man seemed to grow up in an instant, and his demeanor became calm and rigorous.

He looked at the surrounding terrain with bright eyes and nodded at last.

The terrain here is too dangerous. The gentle front of the mountain is surrounded by lakes. The back mountain is extremely steep. Only a dozen men need to guard the stone fort. Even thousands of elite soldiers can only sigh.

Yun Cangfeng opened the package on the side of the saddle with his own hands, took out a flag, spread it in the wind, and held it high.On the ink-blue brocade surface, complex ring cloud patterns are embroidered with silver threads, and in the middle is a huge cloud character.

The flag of the Yun Chamber of Commerce opened as soon as it opened, and a burst of cheers came from the mountain.

Then someone blew the trumpet, and a group of young people in white immediately rushed out of the stone castle that was empty just now. While waving, they shouted happily: It's the Yun family!The caravan of the Yun family!
