"Cut." Beside the snow-capped ice lake, a thick sword energy flew up, and soon countless small sword energy merged into it, forming a majestic stream of swords and slashing on the solid rocks beside the lake. Suddenly rocks flew everywhere, and countless stones fell on the lake, making the originally clear and translucent lake water become turbid.
Wu Gen held a broken knife and stood panting by the lake. The nearly a hundred soldiers behind him were also a little tired. Such large-scale attacks have been carried out ten times, cutting a deep trench on the lake shore.
Soon, other soldiers came forward, using their improvised pickaxes to dig out the gravel and continue to expand the ditch beside the lake.
The ice lake is located on the top of the mountain, with a deep valley on one side. Wu Gen is planning to open a hole here to release the water in the lake. If there is no water, let's see how arrogant the strange fish can be. Anyway, what we don't lack is people. .
When we first started digging, the progress was very slow due to the cold weather and hard soil. Moreover, Wu Gen discovered that the excavated lake shores would quietly grow upward the next day, offsetting the day's hard work. It seemed that the formation here was Dharma has the effect of repairing the shore of the lake on its own.
In a fit of anger, Wu Gen used this method of uniting everyone's sword energy to attack the city, and struck the hard lake shore over and over again. Even with the blessing of the formation, this kind of independent repair power was limited after all, and a ravine finally appeared by the lake. With the efforts of everyone, a flood discharge channel appeared in front of Wu Gen.
Watching the lake gradually soaking into the gully, Wu Gen waved everyone away and stood alone beside the gully. Suddenly, the tips of Wu Gen's hair moved slightly, the wind blew from a distance, the lake surface gradually rippled, and the originally quiet lakeside gradually began to have the sound of lapping the shore.
Wu Gen knew that this was the result of the formation being damaged, making this quiet place no longer a pool of stagnant water.
Taking a deep breath, Wu Gen struck the dug flood channel with his sword. The already crumbling lake shore suddenly cracked open, and the turbulent lake water spurted out like a dragon, pouring down the flood channel.
Down the valley, there was a loud rumbling sound, and the entire lakeshore was shaking. Everyone standing by the lake turned pale. It turns out that the big lake bursting its banks was so ferocious, and people seemed so insignificant in front of such power of heaven and earth.
Wu Gen jumped back into the crowd and sat watching the rolling lake water emptying away.
The lake level lowered little by little. Finally, the majestic waterfall turned into a trickle. The lake level also dropped by more than ten feet, revealing the rugged lake walls and remaining ice rocks.
"Dig more." Wu Gen looked at the still faint lake water and ordered loudly. No matter how powerful the formation is, as long as it is broken a little bit, sooner or later there will be a moment of collapse.
Not to mention that Wu Gen was digging mountains and lakes in full swing, and was doing this stupid thing of chewing peonies regardless of the beautiful scenery of the lake. Somewhere on the ice rock on the main peak of Lushan Mountain, there were two people sitting cross-legged on a stone platform, both with pink makeup and jade inlays next to them. , the two of them used some method to make a pot of tea in such a cold place, and drank it facing each other.
Both of them are old men, dressed in green robes, with one yellow and one white beard. They look like children with white hair.
"Is it possible that you really don't care about this prodigal, ruining the scenery here and abandoning the fish that you have raised for many years?" The old man with a yellow beard suddenly said, and the jade cup in his hand was steaming.
The white-bearded old man let out a long sigh, put down the jade cup in his hand, took a piece of dried fruit into his mouth, "What do you mean, let's have a fight. This guy must have noticed something different here, but he still doesn't care. It shows that he also has confidence in his heart. Let's fight." If so, the two of us can certainly win, but wouldn’t it be foolish to provoke such a powerful enemy just for a few fish?”
"It seems that you are still concerned about yesterday's hexagram. This change of situation is probably due to this son." The old man with a yellow beard squinted his eyes and looked at the ice lake covered by clouds and fog. "By the way, this time The Meng family has been completely destroyed like this, and you just watched helplessly."
The white-bearded old man smiled coldly, "It's such a young night, so there's no need to be angry. We just need to sit and watch the wind and clouds rise, and wait for the clouds to roll and relax, and wait for them to jump more joyfully, and then we can take action before it's too late. Shut someone's mouth."
"That's true. Those old stubborns in the Dengtian Palace need to change their minds. It's better to let these brats torment them more and force them to open their eyes and see the world." Huang Xu old man looked satisfied, Rao Looking into the distance with interest, "To be honest, I really want to meet this guy in person to see if it's worth betting on him."
"Then let's meet, you might as well give me a gift
He received a fish as a greeting gift. If I can wait for Yu'er, I will stop him, lest he really break this formation. If there is some damage, the formation will repair it on its own. Otherwise, it would be a joke for us to work hard to raise fish, but a child would destroy everything. "The white-bearded old man took out a small stove and put a slightly cold teapot on the ground. With a flick of his finger, blue flames rose from the furnace.
"Hahaha, I advise you to take action quickly. This kid seems to have found a position." The old man with a yellow beard suddenly laughed.
By the ice lake, Wu Gen was dragged by Niu Chao to a cliff. Due to the great movement of the lake water entering the valley, a large piece of rock collapsed here, revealing a thick jade pillar with patterns that resembled tadpole patterns and cirrus cloud patterns. The jade pillars exposed outside the wall are as tall as one person, and I don’t know how many more are hidden in the rocks.
"Mr. Village Master, do you think this thing is very valuable? How many jade pieces can be made if it is chiseled off? We are prosperous." Niu Chao stroked the jade pillar with his hand, took out a hammer, and knocked on it hard. There was a faint white light flickering on the jade pillar, causing ripples. The hammer bounced back hard and hit Niu Chao on the head.
"You are like a dog, you dare to bully me." Niu Chao was furious, grabbed the hammer and hit it with a clang.
As expected, the old saying don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you is still true. Niu Chao sat slumped on the ground with two dark circles under his eyes. This stone pillar indeed has some tricks, and it cannot be destroyed by ordinary means.
"Hey, there are still things that our Uncle Niu can't handle." Baoxiang said with a smile, looking at Niu Chao with a mocking look on his face.
Seeing the joking looks in Wu Gen and others' eyes, Niu Chao suddenly lost his composure. He jumped with his legs akimbo and pointed at the pillar and cursed: "This is the pillar erected by some bastard who dug the graves of extinct households, knocked on widows' doors, and wiped out their ancestors. He was afraid of death." No one will give you incense in the end, so give me a stick of incense. Tell me your name if you dare, and I will write it on your butt and kill you with my farts every day."
In the end, the more he scolded, the angrier he became, so he simply untied his pants and soaked the jade pillar with hot yellow soup.
While he was cursing, suddenly the jade pillar lit up with light, and a green lightning shot out, hitting Niu Chao's body and sending him flying far away.
Wu Gen and others were shocked, and quickly stepped back, looked around carefully, and helped Niu Chao, who was disheveled and with a gray face, up. Fortunately, he was born with rough skin and thick flesh, so he slowly recovered and exhaled a long puff of black smoke.
As soon as he woke up, Niu Chao ignored the obstruction of others and insisted on rushing towards Zhuzi to fight. When had Mr. Niu been so evil and bullied by a dead thing? If you don't give it a bit of a show today, you won't know how to write a cow's temper.
Wu Gen carefully stepped forward with the broken knife. There is no doubt that this jade pillar is related to the formation here even if it is not the formation. If it is destroyed, there will be no need to dig a ditch.
Holding the knife in both hands, Wu Gen stood a little further away, secretly thinking of his luck, the sword's glow surged after breaking the knife in his hand, ready to see if he could cut off the jade pillar. Suddenly, Wu Gen looked startled and looked into the distance in surprise. He then stopped his strength, turned around and walked back.
"What's wrong?" Baoxiang asked strangely.
After looking around, Wu Gen whispered: "Nothing, let's go catch fish." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the lake, ignoring the jade pillar.
When they arrived at the lake, Wu Gen asked everyone to move back a little and threw a lot of black plums into the lake. Only Baoxiang and a few people with high cultivation levels were left standing by the lake, while he stood on the lake against the lake wall.
Everyone looked at Wu Gen with puzzled faces, wondering why he suddenly made such arrangements.
After a while, some bubbles suddenly appeared on the water, and a black shadow appeared under the water. The black shadow swam toward the water, revealing its white fins.
After raising the cold fish, everyone suddenly became energetic. Unexpectedly, the fish hiding under the water actually showed up. They each clenched the weapons in their hands, crouched down, and were ready to wait for Wu Gen's order before rushing forward. Such an excellent opportunity cannot be passed up.
This vertical cold fish was obviously not the same one just now. It looked around with its big eyes and ate the plums leisurely. Wu Gen quietly tightened his sleeves, kicked off the hard lake wall with both feet, and rushed towards the vertical cold fish with half of its body exposed out of the water like a rabbit.
Putting his hands into the water, Wu Gen picked up the fish and rushed to the lake shore amid the lightning and flint. vertical
Hanyu didn't react for a moment, and when he was thrown to the shore, he screamed miserably and kept spewing cold air around him.
For a moment, it was bitingly cold on the edge of the lake, and the raging cold air enveloped the rocks, forming a large glacier. The vertical cold fish also froze itself in the glacier.
Wu Gen wiped off the ice on his face, looked around at the people with their heads and bodies covered with frost, and said to Baoxiang with lingering fear: "Baoxiang, I think it will cost a lot to eat this fish." A few loads of firewood.”
"Do you really want to eat it?" Baoxiang looked at the glacier in front of him and hesitated. Although this thing does seem to be a rare treasure, if you eat such an ice pimple in your stomach, you will not turn into an ice man.
"Let's go and take a look." Wu Gen was about to step forward when his expression suddenly changed and he jumped to the edge of the lake. The broken knife penetrated deeply into the ice and stabbed the tail of the vertical cold fish.
If you look closely, you can see that this fish can actually move in the ice. If it were later, it would probably escape back into the lake.
Perhaps he had exhausted all his strength just now. Even though he was hit hard, the vertical cold fish did not spit out the fatal cold current again. Wu Gen quickly called on everyone to break the ice and pulled Shuhanyu away from the lake.
Niu Chao squatted next to the fish and carefully touched the fish body with his hand. "Zhai leader, there should be more than one of these things in the lake. Why don't we dig up the whole lake and get one for each person? Maybe I can kill it." It’s better than Leyu.”
Wu Gen glared at him, "It's such a rare thing. You're lucky to get one. How can you fish in a dry lake? Be careful of greed and retribution." After saying that, he bowed respectfully in the distance.
The thick mist beside the lake began to swim, gradually revealing a gap that led to the outside.
"Let's go, this trip is complete, let's get out of the mountain." Wu Gen gave the order and strode out without even looking at the icy lake behind him.
