Chapter 9 Poolside Scenery
I saw a waterfall flowing straight down from the high cliff, forming a pool of water with a radius of more than ten feet at the bottom. The water was very clear, but you couldn't see the bottom at a glance. The strange thing is that the water in the pool has no outlet. The waterfall above has poured in over the years.
The water in the pool does not decrease or increase. It is said that there is a waterway in the pool that leads directly to the outer sea, but no one has ever gone down to explore it. There is a rock beside the pool, with three large characters "Xijianchi" engraved on it. The characters are coherent and powerful, as if
It was carved with one stroke of the sword.
At this time, there was a figure sitting on the rock. Who could it be if it wasn't Wang Changfeng?
Yu Zhen'er quietly walked up behind Wang Changfeng, and was about to shout to scare him, but Wang Changfeng suddenly turned around and made a face, which made Yu Zhen'er scream in fright.
Yu Zhen'er asked in confusion: "Do you have eyes behind your back, and you can even detect it like this?"
Wang Changfeng smiled and pointed at the water: "Suddenly, there is such a big face. It's hard not to notice."
Yu Zhen'er looked down and saw that her beautiful figure was standing upside down in the water, and she punched Wang Changfeng: "You brat, who's face is bigger?!"
Wang Changfeng screamed strangely: "I have already been punished and thought about it, and I still have to be bullied. It is really cruel and inhumane."
Yu Zhen'er said angrily: "Who wants to bully you? I came to see you out of kindness, but I was told that I have a big face."
Wang Changfeng chuckled and said, "So you're here to comfort me, come and sit here." After saying that, he moved his butt to the side to make room for Yu Zhen'er.
Yu Zhener sat down in a hurry. After sitting down, she realized that the rock was really not big. Wang Changfeng deliberately occupied more than half of the area. After he sat down, there was no open space at all.
Although Yu Zhen'er is usually very carefree and carefree with her fellow apprentices, she is a girl's family after all, so she is always thin-skinned. Even if she fights with Wang Changfeng on weekdays, she has never been so close. It's just that
She felt that the man next to her seemed to exude a strong masculine aura, which made her blush a little and her heart beat.
Yu Zhen'er turned her head and said, "You brat, move a little further to the side." She raised her right hand as if to pop it out.
Wang Changfeng didn't notice her embarrassment, but he noticed her gesture and quickly moved a few inches to the side, as if he had been pricked by a needle.
Yu Zhener smiled and said: "I don't have any thorns on my body, how could you hide so quickly?"
Wang Changfeng did not answer, but suddenly raised his nose and sniffed around in the air: "Strange, where did the fragrance come from? It smells so good."
Yu Zhener sniffed it for a few times and said, "Why didn't I smell the aroma? Instead, I smelled the stench of a pig that hadn't bathed for several days."
When Wang Changfeng saw that his trick was revealed, he laughed at himself: "Others are like flowers with cow dung inserted, but we are a fragrant pig relying on a smelly pig."
Yu Zhener chuckled and said: "I think the water in this pool is good. If you don't hurry up and wash your stinky pig, no one will want your meat if you don't sell it."
At this time, the green trees beside the pool were dancing, there was a gentle breeze on the pool, and the birds were chirping softly in the surrounding forest. Yu Zhen'er's clear laughter spread along the water, and it seemed that only the two people beside the pool were left in the world.
After a long time, Yu Zhener said quietly: "This is the first time I have discovered how beautiful the Sword Washing Pond is. Why haven't I noticed it before?"
Wang Changfeng muttered: "It would be strange if you could discover the beautiful scenery if you were punished."
Yu Zhen'er said with a bad smile: "That's right, you were the one who was punished mainly this time, no wonder I'm in such a good mood. Hehehe, I hope you will be punished by Master often in the future, so that I can come and enjoy the beautiful scenery."
Wang Changfeng was very angry: "Oh, it's hard to raise a woman and a villain. The ancients were sincere and I can't bully them."
Yu Zhen'er suddenly sighed: "It would be great if I could live like this on the island forever. I really don't understand why the senior brothers want to leave the island. Do they all want to be officials? What's the benefit of being an official?
of."
Wang Changfeng looked into the distance and said slowly: "I am different from them. Rather than being an official, I am more interested in unraveling my life experience."
Yu Zhen'er wondered: "You have been a disciple of the master since you were a child. I remember that the master said that you were the son of an old friend and were entrusted to the master. Since you are an old friend of the master, how come you don't know your life experience?"
Wang Changfeng lowered his head and took out something from his arms. It seemed to be half a piece of jade, crystal clear and moist, with a dragon head engraved on it, and some strange patterns on the side, which looked like clouds and waves, but they were definitely not common in the Central Plains.
style.
"Master said that when he was practicing under the green cliff, he saw a wooden basin floating from the sea in the distance. In it lay a baby who was less than one year old and was sleeping soundly. Next to him was this half piece of jade.
Qixing Island is far away from the mainland, and there are no fishermen around, so Master has never figured out where the baby and the wooden basin came from." Wang Changfeng said calmly.
It was the first time Yu Zhen'er heard him talk about this matter. She didn't expect that Wang Changfeng still had this story. Her youngest daughter's curiosity aroused and she said: "Maybe the ship at sea was in trouble and you were the only one who survived?
"
Wang Changfeng shook his head and said: "Master had thought of this at that time and sent several disciples to go out to sea to search everywhere. They found nothing on the sea within a hundred miles, not even a piece of wood. In the following years, Master has been secretly investigating this matter, and finally
I found some clues. Someone had seen similar patterns on other artifacts in the ghost market. They seemed to come from the Fusang Kingdom in the East China Sea, but later the clues were interrupted and there was no whereabouts."
Yu Zhen'er suddenly flashed her big eyes and said: "You are not from Fusang Country, are you? No, I heard that the people there are very short, and their stature is different from yours."
Wang Changfeng raised his hand and knocked Yu Zhen'er's forehead: "It's nonsense, how could I be a Japanese queen? I might as well kill myself with a knife."
Yu Zhen'er murmured: "I don't think so either."
Suddenly, Wang Changfeng gently put his finger to his mouth, signaling to silence, and said softly: "There seems to be someone."
Yu Zhen'er thought it was other disciples coming here, and was about to turn around to ask. At this moment, the sound of piercing the air suddenly sounded, and several sharp arrows suddenly shot out from the woods behind them, heading straight for the people by the pool.
And go.
The Fengyun Longhu Shou practiced by Wang Changfeng originally emphasized the method of natural induction. With his current cultivation level, he could detect the sound of falling leaves within ten feet around him. It would not be a problem if someone passed by. He was just thinking about his life experience.
Mystery, his response to the outside world was a bit slow. Even so, after long-term practice, his body automatically remained highly sensitive to unusual changes around him, so when those people came within range of launching an attack, they were already noticed by Wang Changfeng
.
It's just that the people who came here were all masters. When they got close, they didn't hesitate at all and launched a direct attack, aiming to kill the two people by the pool with one blow.
At this time, an old man and a young man were sitting in the Ji Xing Hall, playing chess opposite each other. It was Master Kukai and Zheng He.
The subordinate named Ma Long quickly walked into the palace and whispered a few words to Zheng He.
Zheng He's eyes flashed and he said: "Master, the disciple's subordinates who stayed outside the island have just received news that someone has sneaked into the island. Please let me know if you want to send someone to hunt him down."
Kukai was holding up a chess piece and said without any wavering in his tone: "They are just a few little thieves. Since they can survive the difficulty of entering the Star Gate, they seem to be no strangers to Tianshu Island."
Zheng He continued: "The person who is able to take risks and land on the island must not be mediocre. Now that all the disciples have gone to the beach, the island is empty. Will it be detrimental to Junior Brother Changfeng?" Zheng He vaguely felt that it might be for the purpose of
Wang Changfeng went there.
Kukai fell down and said with a smile: "Don't worry about that. That kid is very clever. I'm afraid not many people on this island can hurt him. It's your turn to go."
When Zheng He saw his master saying this, he said no more.
They were playing chess leisurely in the Pole Star Palace, but there were dangers surrounding the sword-washing pool.
Wang Changfeng immediately judged that there were five arrows coming from behind, one was the strongest, and the other four were weaker. But once the arrow was hit, it would probably not be fun.
The scary thing is that these attackers calculated their possible escape routes, and shot three of the five arrows in the middle straight to the back, and the two on the left and right respectively blocked the hiding place, leaving no way for themselves to survive. And when these arrows were fired
After that, Wang Changfeng felt that the second wave of five arrows was already on the way!
At this time, Yu Zhen'er also sensed the incoming arrow energy, but she was half a beat slower than Wang Changfeng, and the arrow energy was already within one foot.
In the midst of the lightning and flint, Wang Changfeng cursed in his heart, what kind of hatred or resentment, why are you so desperate to kill us? Since there are death doors on both sides, there is only one way left in front of you. Wang Changfeng shouted and grabbed Yu
One of Zhen'er's hands lowered his head and thrust forward, and actually threw himself directly into the sword washing pool.
In this way, the sword-washing stone became the best shield, just blocking the two figures from entering the pool. The arrow flew past the top and left and right sides of the rock, and the arrow air drew a path on the surface of the pool.
