After the three elders of the Jiuhua sect, Master Tianyang, Master Yunyang and Master Jiuyang, walked away, the remaining disciples, driven by Masters Songyang and Yuanyang, left the Reflection Cliff one after another.
By the time the sun went down, there was no one in front of Reflection Cliff, which had been bustling just now. Even Yuan Fang, who was originally ordered to guard Mu Jingyu, could only obey the order of Master Songyang and return to Tianluo Peak.
When there was no sound from outside, Qin Yunchuan, who had stood up long ago, lay on the stone wall and listened for a while before saying: "Jingyu, everyone has left, let's not stay here, let's go inside. Go to the secret room."
"Let's go!" Mu Jingyu led the way first. After returning to the secret room inside, he asked Qin Yunchuan: "Brother Qin, when will we leave Jiuhua Mountain?"
Qin Yunchuan took out the Qiankun bag. He wanted to open it and take a look at the contents, but then he remembered Master Tianyang's instructions, so he had to suppress his curiosity, lay down on the only stone bed in the stone room and said, "It's already here. At dusk, when it's midnight, the guards in the mountain will naturally relax. When we get there, it won't be too late for us to leave. As for now, we'd better have a good sleep and recharge our batteries."
Seeing that the stone bed was occupied, Mu Jingyu could only lean on the chair and follow Qin Yunchuan's example with his eyes closed and take a nap. But my heart was like a turmoil, all kinds of thoughts were rushing into my mind, and I couldn't sleep. The two chatted for a while, then fell asleep.
I don't know how long it took, but Mu Jingyu's body suddenly trembled and he woke up from his deep sleep. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw that Qin Yunchuan had woken up a long time ago and was eagerly taking the Qiankun bag and pouring the contents onto the stone table.
Mu Jingyu looked over curiously and saw that there were not many things in the Qiankun bag. They were basically dry food, water, night clothes, and elixirs.
Qin Yunchuan became more and more disappointed as he looked at it. He originally thought that there would be some kind of magic weapon or fairy weapon here, but he didn't know that it was just ordinary stuff.
"What's going on? Master is so mysterious in front of me that I thought there was some kind of magic weapon inside! But inside..."
Qin Yunchuan looked at the things on the stone table randomly and kept complaining. But Mu Jingyu suddenly let out a light sigh and quickly picked up something that looked like a stone.
Qin Yunchuan curiously raised his head and asked, "Huh? What is this? It looks like a stone."
Mu Jingyu did not answer. After looking left and right for a moment, his expression became more and more solemn. Finally, he stretched out his left hand. After the spiritual energy in the Jiuyaoxuan Light Chain filled his palm, he carefully touched the stone.
In an instant, a burst of spiritual light, which was even stronger than the spiritual energy in his palm, burst out from the stone. The two young boys who were stunned closed their eyes unconsciously. When he opened it again, the originally ordinary stone had changed its appearance.
I saw that the stone had now turned into the shape of a mountain peak, and on one side of the mountain peak, there were four small fonts of Jiuhua Zhenmo engraved on it. If Mu Jingyu hadn't seen this thing before, he really wouldn't have recognized the four characters Jiuhua Zhenmo.
"Jiuhua Zhen Mo Mountain! Haha, it is indeed Jiu Hua Zhen Mo Mountain." Mu Jingyu held Jiu Hua Zhen Mo Mountain in his hands, this treasure that is the first of the seven major immortal treasures of Jiu Hua sect, scenes from the past came to mind again.
I remember back then, after Mo Yunshen took him away from Cangmang Mountain, they went to a withered temple on a barren mountain. It was here that he met Bi Yun for the first time and helped her escape from the hands of the Withered Bone Demon. It was Long Tianlu, the chief elder of Yaoming Palace, who entrusted Bi Yun to Mo Yunshen before he died, and what happened in the future changed Mu Jingyu's life trajectory.
After Qin Yunchuan heard the words "Jiuhua Zhenmo Mountain", his eyes widened and sparkled. He didn't notice Mu Jingyu's expression, he grabbed the fairy treasure and kept playing with it in his hand.
"Jingyu, this Jiuhua Zhenmo Mountain is the first of the seven great immortal treasures of our Jiuhua Sect! The master master rarely lets it show up, how did you tell?"
Mu Jingyu said softly with a touch of sadness: "Because, when I was a child, I once saw Uncle Mo use it to resist the Withered Bone Demon Lord, so..."
In just a few words, Qin Yunchuan's excitement, which had just been high, instantly dropped. Although Mu Jingyu didn't finish speaking, he could still think that Mo Yunshen must have used this fairy treasure when he took Mu Jingyu to escape. That's why he recognized her at a glance, which brought back this memory.
"That...haha...the master master is so kind to us, he actually gave us Jiuhua Zhenmo Mountain." Qin Yunchuan really couldn't think of anything to say that could dilute Mu Jingyu's current low mood. . After saying a few random words, he hurriedly stuffed Jiuhua Zhenmoshan into his arms and pulled Mu Jingyu to stand up.
"Jingyu, it's getting late. I guess it's already midnight outside. Let's leave the secret room quickly and find a way out of Jiuhua Mountain."
"Yes." Mu Jingyu put away his melancholy mood and opened the secret passage leading outside.
Speaking of which, since Master Tianyang brought Mu Jingyu to this stone chamber on the first night, this was the first time he came out of this secret passage.
After the two of them walked out of it one by one, they saw themselves at the foot of Tianluo Peak. Looking up, Reflection Cliff stood just above their heads.
Mu Jingyu glanced around, only to feel the cold night wind whistling through the mountains, which made him sober up a little, diluting the sadness that had just accumulated in his heart.
Qin Yunchuan patted Mu Jingyu on the shoulder and said, "Jingyu, how should we go next?"
Mu Jingyu knew what Qin Yunchuan meant, and asked him where the cave where he was hiding was. After giving a helpless smile, he listened for a moment. Because the place where the two came out happened to be at the foot of the mountain, and they could hear the gurgling water passing by not far away.
After Mu Jingyu carefully identified the direction, he pointed to the foot of the mountain and said, "Let's go forward and find the river not far away first."
Qin Yunchuan followed behind and asked curiously as he walked: "Hey, couldn't it be that... the valley you mentioned is hidden in the river?"
Although, Qin Yunchuan and Mu Jingyu had just been rushed into the cave by the river when they were chased by the fire beast. But he never would have thought that in the assessment six years later, Mu Jingyu would come to the cave again by accident after jumping off the Tianjue Peak, and thus find the Chu Li tribe. The remaining valley obtained the Jiuyaoxuan Light Chain!
"Of course not." Mu Jingyu led the way and told Qin Yunchuan exactly what happened that year.
After hearing this, the latter was speechless: "Hey, I can't believe it. I can't believe that the cave we hit by mistake will save your life later. There is also our Jiuhua Sect in it, which has been known as the first cave since ancient times. The traces left by one person, He Xiaozi. Of course, your boy has a deeper blessing than Senior He. He actually met the last high priest of the Chu Li tribe thousands of years ago and obtained the ancient artifact Nine Yao Xuan Light Chain. ”
While Qin Yunchuan envied Mu Jingyu, he was also happy for this sworn brother. Unexpectedly, the disciples of the Jiuhua Sect who were least favored by others at the beginning are now famous figures in Jiuzhou.
It is time and destiny.
"Who says it's not?" Thinking of his experiences over the years, especially the six months since he came out of the valley, Mu Jingyu was filled with emotions, and he was also filled with sadness.
I don’t know whether it is because this place is located in the hinterland of the Jiuhua Mountains and few disciples patrol here, or whether it is the result of Master Tianyang’s deliberate arrangement. Anyway, until Mu Jingyu took Qin Yunchuan and searched for memories to the place where he was chased by the fire beast, he did not find the Jiuhua Sect disciples who were watching the night.
"Where is that cave?" Mu Jingyu searched for the river and walked back and forth three times. However, over time, the surrounding vegetation has grown rapidly, and it has long lost its appearance. In addition, there are many tributaries here, and Mu Jingyu can't find the cave where he used to be.
Although Qin Yunchuan was anxious, he kept comforting Mu Jingyu and said, "Don't worry Jingyu, I remember it's nearby. Let's search slowly and we will definitely find it."
It would be a lie to say that Qin Yunchuan was not in a hurry. If they had not entered the valley by daybreak, they would have to return to the prison in Shousi Cliff first to avoid being discovered.
After spending less than half an hour, the two of them went around several tributaries of the Huaijiang River, but it still didn't matter. Qin Yunchuan suddenly caught the starlight in the sky and found a torn piece of clothing faintly exposed in the grass not far away.
"Huh? This thing... looks familiar to me." Qin Yunchuan seemed to be unable to believe it. After rubbing his eyes, he quickly walked over and pulled off the piece of clothing.
"This is..." Qin Yunchuan tilted his head and thought for a while, then suddenly realized: "I remember, this is what happened when Xiaodie and I came down to look for you the next day after you jumped off Tianjue Peak. My clothes were torn by branches. I didn’t expect it to still be here after so many years.”
"The next day, when you and Xiaodie came to look for me?" At this moment, Mu Jingyu also had a flash of inspiration: "I remember that when I just woke up from the coma, I did faintly hear you and Xiaodie The sound! If you want to put it that way... the cave is nearby."
The two brothers were shocked and immediately started searching nearby. Just a quarter of an hour later, Qin Yunchuan was heard shouting next to a small tributary of the Huaijiang River a mile away.
"Jingyu! Jingyu! Come and see if this is the cave we hid in?"
Mu Jingyu, who was searching for another tributary not far away, quickly flew over after hearing Qin Yunchuan's call. From a distance, you can see a small cave entrance, half hidden under the river. The continuously surging river water almost blocked the entire cave entrance. If Qin Yunchuan hadn't shouted from inside, no one would have discovered him.
After Mu Jingyu plunged in, he swam out of the cave. I happened to see Qin Yunchuan, holding a branch on the ground and looking back and forth.
After seeing Mu Jingyu walking in, he held up the dead branch in his hand and asked, "Jingyu, do you think this is the God-binding vine I pulled down back then?"
"Brother Qin is right, this is the God-binding vine." Mu Jingyu said, taking out half of the jade pendant that Mo Yunshen left for him. Above, after he was rushed here, he twisted the bark of the God-Binding Vine into a rope and hung half of the Nine-Luo Xuanhuang Pendant around his neck. Before I knew it, more than half a year had passed, and I actually forgot to replace it with another rope.
As Mu Jingyu spoke, he pointed to the ashes that still had marks in the cave and said, "Brother Qin, look, not only does the God-binding vine remain here, but the fire I raised originally remains untouched. It seems that no one has discovered this cave in nearly seven years."
"Wouldn't it be better if no one finds out? In case your secret is discovered." Qin Yunchuan said with a smile: "It's getting late, let's get to the valley quickly and leave Jiuhua Mountain."
After Mu Jingyu nodded, he led Qin Yunchuan towards the depths of the cave. When I arrived at the largest cave room, I found that the palm tree torch that was fixed on the wall six years ago was still firmly stuck to the wall.
After shooting out a ball of spiritual fire and lighting all six torches, Mu Jingyu took advantage of the increasingly faint light to quickly press the orb on the mural. There was only a whirring sound coming from another secret passage.
Mu Jingyu waved his hand and said, "Brother Qin, the door to the secret passage has been opened. Let's go in quickly."
