Chapter 31 Wonders of the Valley
Early the next morning, the shopkeeper brought breakfast and asked, "Did you guys encounter anything last night?"
"No." Qin Shou replied.
"That's fine. My room was broken into yesterday. There was a big hole in the window, but strangely nothing was lost. I've reported it to the mayor and asked them to investigate. There are fewer and fewer people in this town.
, but it’s easy to attract thieves!”
"Shopkeeper, maybe this is a good sign. Maybe the thief has scared away the ghosts in the town. You can start the business earlier. The two of us will leave today."
"Thank you Ji Yan, you two can leave anytime. The gold coins you gave me are enough to stay here for ten days." The shopkeeper said goodbye and walked out of the room.
Shui Lan looked at Qin Shou in surprise and asked, "Did you discover something?"
"Yeah, I met a ghost last night." Qin Shou smiled.
"Ah! Then what?" Shui Lan asked in surprise.
"Of course he was beaten to death by me!"
"What? Did you beat the ghost to death?"
"Not only was he beaten to death, but there was also a corpse! Do you want to see it?" Qin Shou said and took out the body of the Phantom Flame Bat from the ring.
"Ah!" When Shui Lan saw the man's face, he was so frightened that he immediately grabbed Qin Shou's arm and hid behind his back.
"Oh, it's a relatively rare phantom flame bat. It can suck people's souls, causing them to go crazy. It can also create illusions to hide itself. This is the truth about the haunting in the small town. Miss Shui Lan seems to be brave
It's not very big." Qin Shou looked at Shui Lan with a smile.
"Hmph, you actually have a space ring. If I had known it, I wouldn't have spent a lot of money to get this ring." Shui Lan blushed and immediately changed the subject.
"You never asked me if I have a space ring?" Qin Shou said seriously.
"You!" Shui Lan's voice paused, "The body of this soul beast belongs to me!" She said and put the ring away.
Qin Shou shook his head and said: "Pack up and set off. We are safer when we are outside the jurisdiction of Golden Soul City."
Asking the shopkeeper to hire a carriage, the two of them left Jinyi Town along the official road.
The carriage bumped along the rugged mountain road. Qin and Shou were unable to meditate and practice, so they simply admired the beautiful scenery in the mountains. The sun did not rise for long, and the sunlight covered the entire mountain peak with golden color, and there was a vibrant scene everywhere.
, the two young people talked excitedly about the beautiful scenery they had never seen before.
After crossing countless mountain ridges, at almost noon, an open space appeared in front of us, and a simple teahouse appeared in sight. The coachman stopped the carriage at this time and said: "Two guests, there is a teahouse ahead, and the horses need to rest."
Now, please go to the teahouse to have a rest before leaving." Qin and Shou looked at the scorching sun in the sky and suddenly felt a little thirsty, so they walked into the teahouse as the coachman said.
This teahouse is a simple enclosed shed with more than a dozen benches. It seems that after the spirit beast appeared in Liancang Mountain, the number of merchants coming and going has decreased a lot. There are only seven or eight people sitting inside, including Qin Shou and Qin Shou.
So he found a corner, ordered a pot of tea and rested. This time Shui Lan put on the inner armor that concealed his aura, and only the soul power of the second soul cultivator fluctuated.
After a while, the carriage driver came in, and Qin and Shou got up and continued on their way. After leaving the teahouse, a carriage came from the opposite side. Five soul cultivators got out of the carriage, one of them was always there.
He glanced at Qin Shou and Qin Shou, but Qin Shou didn't take it seriously and quickly got into the car and went to the official road.
Soon, the carriage followed the mountain road to the highest and most dangerous mountain in this area, and the road began to become very narrow. At this time, the sound of the carriage suddenly came from behind. It turned out that it was the five people chasing in front of the teahouse just now.
After coming up, Qin Shou thought and ordered the coachman: "Stop the carriage on the side of the road."
However, the carriage that came up from behind did not stop beside Qin Shou, but passed directly over. Qin Shou was also relieved. It seemed that these people did not have evil intentions towards the two of them. They were really busy with something.
Then returned.
The carriage moved forward again and began to go down the mountain. Qin Shou released his soul consciousness and carefully explored the surrounding situation. Suddenly, Qin Shou found five soul power fluctuations coming from the next corner, and he immediately felt it in his heart
No, just when he shouted the word "stop", he heard the horses neighing and falling to the ground with a bang. These five people were really cunning. They knew that they were soul cultivators, so they used the simplest tripping rope, so Qin
Shou failed to detect the trap in advance. As the horses fell, the carriage also overturned. Fortunately, the speed was not very fast and it did not fall off the cliff. At this time, someone's shouts came from outside.
"Come out, you two. You are very courageous. Two little soul cultivators dare to take the official path alone. Where are you going? We are the Five Tigers of Lian Cang Mountain. How could we see you two fat sheep today?
Don't be tempted. And there is a beautiful girl? Today is really a lucky day!"
Qin Shou was too lazy to listen anymore. He followed the sound to a diamond finger, and immediately a scream came in. Just as he was about to get out of the car and deal with the five unlucky tigers that came from nowhere, something unexpected happened.
The tripped horse actually struggled and seemed to be frightened, dragging the carriage forward like crazy.
Qin Shou was immediately knocked up in the carriage. Before he could take any measures, the horse actually dragged the carriage and fell off the cliff. After two punches, the carriage fell into pieces. Qin Shou pulled Shui Lan and looked at the bottom of the mountain.
The vaguely visible sharp rocks made my heart feel bitter. God must kill me, Qin Shou. Shui Lan got directly into Qin Shou's arms, with a pair of big watery eyes flashing with tears. Qin Shou also hugged Shui Lan tightly.
, sighed and closed his eyes...
Just when they fell to the bottom of the valley, the expected shattering did not happen. It seemed that a red light flashed from Shui Lan's body, and Qin Shou felt as if something had penetrated, and then with a plop, the two of them fell into the water.
Qin Shouxian was stunned for a moment, then immediately let go of Shui Lan and pulled Shui Lan to swim towards the water. As soon as he came out of the water, a strong force of wood soul rushed towards his face, and a small valley surrounded by mountains appeared in front of him. There was something in the valley.
About half of it is a small lake, and the other half is covered with various spiritual grasses. It seems that this is a place specially planted with spiritual grasses, but judging from the growth of spiritual grasses, it seems that they have been growing for at least hundreds of years.
The two of them swam to the shore. They seemed to be stunned because they still couldn't believe what they were seeing. Qin Shou said to himself, "Is this true?"
Shui Lan didn't answer, and directly stretched out her hand to pinch Qin Shou.
"Ouch!" Qin Shou covered his arm and turned his head.
"Do you know if it's true?" Shui Lan laughed mischievously.
As Shui Lan bloomed with a beautiful smile, it seemed to suppress all the magical flowers and herbs in the valley. In addition, Shui Lan's exquisite curves were revealed just after coming out of the water. Qin Shou couldn't help but feel a little crazy.
.
Shui Lan didn't pinch him this time, she blushed and turned around in embarrassment.
"Actually, it would be nice if we could live here like this." Shui Lan looked at everything around her and her mood improved.
Qin Shou shook his head and stood up, "Come on, let's look for a way out."
The two looked around and found a wooden house in the distance against the mountain, so they walked over together. Looking at the spiritual herbs that were more than a hundred years old along the way, they secretly smacked their lips. How big a deal it would be to take them out.
What wealth!
When they arrived at the wooden house, the two of them took a look around. The wooden house was already a little mottled, but it seemed to have been reinforced by something and looked very strong. The wooden door was ajar, as if it still retained the appearance it had before the owner left, and there was no imposition.
What kind of barrier? When the wooden door was opened, thick dust fell down, and the two of them hurriedly ran away.
After the dust cleared, the two walked into the wooden house. As soon as they entered the house, there was a plaque hanging on the wall directly opposite, with two big characters written on it - Murong. Both of them were stunned, Qin Shou's thoughts were spinning
Said: "Is this the secret realm of your Murong family?"
"Probably not. My father told me that the situation in the secret realm should be full of towering ancient trees. And the secret realm should be a du li space. This is just a valley covered by a barrier." Shui Lan shook his head.
.
"Then how do you explain the word Murong? Is this a place where the Murong family cultivates spiritual herbs? But no one must have been here for at least a hundred years."
"I don't know either. Let's go in and look for any clues. I have never lived in the Murong family, so I know very little about the Murong family. It would be great if my father was here."
The two walked into the wooden house and searched around, and soon found some almost completely rotten books in a bookcase. They seemed a little scattered, as if they had been packed up in a hurry and left. After searching them all, the two
His eyes focused on the plaque with the word "Murong" written on it.
Qin Shou carefully released the golden bell cover, then extended the golden wings of the golden-winged cup, and gently picked the plaque. It seemed that the plaque was the same as the wood used in the wooden house, still as hard as new, and the entire plaque fell off when he picked it.
When it fell, there was a snapping sound, and a piece of jade fell to the ground. Qin Shou's pupils suddenly shrank, it turned out to be a jade slip!
The two browsed the jade slips respectively, then glanced at each other in unison, and both saw the joy in each other's eyes. It turned out that this was the place where the ancestors of the Murong family lived in seclusion, and it was covered by a barrier that could only be activated by the blood of the Murong family.
However, Qin Shou and Qin Shou fell down by mistake, and Shui Lan, who had the blood of the Murong family, entered the barrier.
This place is completely closed. Except for a teleportation array that can be teleported back to Wood Soul City, there is no other way to enter and exit this place. The ancestors are not confident that the Murong family can rule Wood Soul City forever without leaving the Eastern Continent and have been living in seclusion here.
Everything in the valley was built by the ancestors of the Murong family with their great supernatural powers. It is not just the large expanses of spiritual grass outside the house, but there are also specially raised spirit beasts inside the mountain, which can be entered through the wooden house.
