"Mr. Chen, is what you said true?" Mao Su said, taking back the gravel on the ground again, breaking it with his hands, and without much effort, the stone in his hand shattered into pieces with a "crash". Several pieces.

"How's it going?" Chen Xiaomu said with a smile, "Now do you believe I'm right?"

Mao Su immediately held up his hands and said: "Master Chen, you are really amazing, but the student still has something unclear."

Chen Xiaomu nodded: "Yeah, tell me."

Mao Su said: "Students don't know how Mr. Chen concluded that these gravel fragments fell from the huge rock on the top of the cave?"

Chen Xiaomu picked up a piece of stone, held it in front of his eyes, formed a straight line with the boulder in the distance, and then said, "Look, are they the same color?"

Mao Su hesitated and said: "Master Chen, according to the student's observation, isn't the white color on and around the boulder formed by falling snow?"

Chen Xiaomu shook his head: "That's not right. The white color around the boulder is indeed caused by falling snow, but the white color on this boulder is caused by natural weathering over many years. There is a reason why I say this. You see, here There is a cluster of branches just above a huge boulder, and the falling snow is blocked by these branches. Even if it can fall on the boulder, it cannot cover the entire boulder."

Qingkui couldn't help but nodded when he heard the words: "Yeah, that's true. It seems that Master Tongpan has a unique vision, and I admire him very much."

Mao Suyin and Chen Xiaomu were about the same age, and they were quite young and energetic. At the moment, he was not very convinced. He looked at the boulder on the top of the cave carefully again. If Chen Xiaomu said it, it was not far from the boulder. , there is a thick and tall cedar growing on it. Its overhanging crown almost incorporates half of the boulder under the tree.

At this time, he had to admire Chen Xiaomu's super powers of observation, and he immediately raised his hands and said in conviction: "Student is willing to climb to the top of the cave with Mr. Chen and push down the huge boulder!"

Chen Xiaomu said with a smile: "Mao Xiucai, you and I should save our time. Although the roof of this cave does not look high, it is surrounded by cliffs. It is difficult to find a place to stay. Without certain skills, it is really difficult." Can’t go up.”

"How about you let me give it a try?" As soon as Chen Xiaomu finished speaking, Zhou Huanhuan introduced herself and walked up to him.

"This..." Could it be that Chen Xiaomu was doing the same thing: "Miss Zhou, when you first came here, you started working hard! Isn't that bad?"

Zhou Huanhuan glanced at him and muttered: "Hypocritical, didn't you just want me to go up there?"

"No, no!" Chen Xiaomu quickly argued: "Miss Zhou, you misunderstood, I am actually...!"

Before she finished speaking, Zhou Huanhuan walked a few steps and tapped her toes lightly on the tree stump next to her. Her whole body instantly became as light as a flying swallow. She jumped up to a height of six or seven feet, and then performed another move in the air. With one move, the bird flew into the forest and flew quickly towards the larch tree standing in front of the entrance of the fairy cave. Seeing that she was about to fly down to the tree, who knew that she had no intention of falling from the tree, but her feet were on a branch that was stretched out. He kicked off the tree trunk, turned his body in the air, and flew straight towards the cedar next to the boulder. In the blink of an eye, the whole person had disappeared into the branches and leaves of the larch, and before the few people below could recover, , a small figure has appeared beside the boulder. "

"Oh my God!" Chen Xiaomu couldn't help but exclaimed: "Miss Zhou is so awesome this week! She can actually fly to the sky!"

At this time, Wei Yuxin heard the sound and turned to look at him, saying disdainfully: "Humph, I have never seen the world, this is just the flying magic skill! It's just a falling leaf."

When Chen Xiaomu heard this, he was stunned and said: "Miss Wei, I heard you say it is so light. Could it be that you can fly around in the sky like Miss Zhou?"

Wei Yuxin nodded slightly and said: "Of course, this Falling Leaves Floating Kung Fu is an essential escape skill for people in today's world. It's just that everyone has different levels of practice."

"Okay, okay!" Chen Xiaomu happily said hello after hearing this, and then pointed to the withered yellow grass all over the mountains and fields at his feet and said, "Miss Wei, can you please fly up and use the grass on the ground with Miss Zhou?" Make a straw rope and drag us up?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Wei Yuxin agreed, and then she seemed to want to show off in front of Chen Xiaomu. She didn't step on anything to help her, but she jumped up and jumped more than a foot high, and then she was in the air. A kite came and turned over, and jumped up two or three feet high. Then he performed the eight-step cicada-catching Qinggong. He only heard a few "swish, swish" sounds as the wind blew through his clothes. Looking at her again, she looked like a Like flying through the clouds, she flew towards the larch tree in front of the cave in mid-air. She was probably following Zhou Huanhuan's strategy, planning to use this tree as a transit point for climbing the boulder.

Just when Chen Xiaomu looked up and was terrified, not daring to breathe, Qing Kui suddenly heard a sigh in his ears: "Master Tongpan, I didn't expect that Miss Wei's Qinggong can be as high as Miss Zhou's. , This is simply unbelievable to me!”

Chen Xiaomu heard this and said curiously: "Mr. Qing, it turns out that everyone has different levels of martial arts. It's quite normal. Why are you feeling sad?"

Qingkui pondered and said: "Master Tongpan, do you know who Qiu Youde died just now because of his internal strength competition with Miss Zhou?"

"Oh! I really don't know this!" Chen Xiaomu shook his head.

Qingkui stroked his beard and sighed: "Well, we have a relationship. Although he didn't recognize me just now, I recognized him as soon as I glanced at him!"

Chen Xiaomu said in surprise: "Mr. Qing, I was just at the entrance of the cave and heard someone say that Qiu Youde is actually the national master of Qi State. How do you know him?"

Qingkui laughed awkwardly and said: "I saved the banquet held by Princess Lanling of Qi State. At this time, Qiu Youde was just an aide in Prince Lanling's palace. It was because Prince Lanling asked him to come to the table to accompany him that we got to know him. After the banquet, everyone still had a lot of fun and gathered together to drink tea and chat. I remember that at the instigation of Dong Li, the guard commander of the Lanling Palace at that time, Qiu Youde took advantage of the drunkenness to demonstrate his Thunder God Kung Fu. First, he put several wine cups in a row and placed them on the table about two feet away from him. Then he concentrated on the palms of his hands, then turned his palms outwards and spat out his magical power towards the wine cups. In an instant, he only heard the wine cups on the table. There was a crackling sound, and looking at the wine cup on the table, it looked like it had been struck by lightning, and it was bursting into pieces all over the table! If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would have been unbelievable."

"Can Qiu Youde be so powerful?" Chen Xiaomu murmured to himself in confusion. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that a few days ago, he used the principle of sound resonance in physics to easily defraud the leader of the Five Poison Sect, Poison Centipede Qiu Xingbo and Ye Mingzhu, by taking out only an ordinary dog ​​food bowl. He originally thought that he had made it up casually. The routine martial arts that came out, I didn’t expect that in reality, there are actually people who have mastered this top-notch martial arts.

At this time Qingkui continued: "Master Tongpan, according to my opinion, even a top master like Qiu Youde died in her hands. What happened to the girl this week is really unfathomable!"

Chen Xiaomu nodded in agreement. To be honest, he didn't understand martial arts. No matter how thrilling the fight was in front of him, he only had one standard in his heart. The martial arts that can win is good martial arts. As a metaphor, now, it can bring him physical and mental benefits. The only thing that ensures a sense of security is the two pistols I carry with me.

While he was talking, Qingkui's apprentice Tong Dabiao came over and tugged on his master's sleeves, whispering: "Master, look, Miss Wei and Miss Zhou have already tied the rope and put it down."

"Oh! So fast?" Qingkui and Chen Xiaomu looked up after hearing the sound. Sure enough, they saw two figures beside the boulder in the distance, lowering a rope down the mountain.

''Let's go and have a look. " Before Qingkui could say anything, Chen Xiaomu took the lead and walked quickly towards the place where the rope fell.

Unexpectedly, Mao Su panicked at this time and ran quickly to catch up with Chen Xiaomu, panting: "Chen, Mr. Chen, the student wants to discuss something with you?"

"What's wrong?" Chen Xiaomu couldn't help but slow down.

"Yes, that's what it is." Mao Su stammered: "Mr. Chen, look at the student's physical condition, he is really weak. Even if we use a rope to pull the student up to the top of the fairy cave, it probably won't be able to help. Why don't we let the students stay and find a place to hide and monitor what's going on inside the cave?"

Chen Xiaomu couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and teased him: "Xiucai, with your body and bones, wouldn't it be more dangerous to stay down there? If a few fish escape from the cave, how many of them can you withstand?" Round? Besides, I have changed my mind now. Wait until we go up and push down the boulder to block the entrance of the cave, and then directly use the rocks to hit the people who rush out of the cave. Wouldn't this save time and effort? It's nothing. Danger?"

Mao Su thought about it, don't lose your life just because you want to save some energy, and you have to follow Chen Xiaomu obediently.

With the help of Wei Yuxin and Zhou Huanhuan, several people successfully climbed to the top of the Immortal Cave and came to the boulder. As Chen Xiaomu had previously judged, the entire boulder had been weathered due to years of erosion by wind, rain, and snow. It was almost done. Chen Xiaomu stepped forward and reached out to touch it casually. The gravel powder on the surface of the boulder fell down. Then he stretched out his foot and gave the boulder a hard shove. This time, more gravel powder fell. However, the boulder did not move at all.

Chen Xiaomu was a little confused, so he had to squat down and look slowly and carefully along the roots of the boulder. When he saw nearly half of the boulder's circumference, his eyes suddenly lit up and he found several bunches of withered yellow urala grass growing from the roots of the boulder. Reach out.

Chen Xiaomu immediately asked for a short knife from Wei Yuxin's hand, and dug into the place where the urala grass grew under the boulder. The fact was just as he had guessed, the urah grass was completely covered with a mixture of stone powder and soil weathered from the boulder. After being soaked in snow water for a long time, when the knife was inserted into it, it became soft and sticky. As Chen Xiaomu dug downwards with the short knife in his hand, in a short time, a medium-sized mud pit was dug out at the bottom of the boulder.

"Okay." Chen Xiaomu straightened up and said, "I'm going to chop two crowbars, and we'll pry down from this place."

Wei Yuxin snatched his short knife back from Chen Xiaomu's hand, rolled his eyes, and said bitterly: "See how dirty you made my knife, I will never use it again."

Chen Xiaomu quickly accompanied the smiling face and coaxed her: "Miss Wei, lend me a hand again. When I return to Xinjing City, I will immediately fulfill my previous promise and give you a pistol."

"Really?" Wei Yuxin looked unbelieving.

Chen Xiaomu immediately raised his palms: "I swear to God."
