As dawn approaches, a wisp of white fish belly gradually emerges from the sea of clouds among the vast peaks. In the eastern sky, the red sun is rising, and the rays of rays are shining brightly, illuminating the earth and emitting colorful rays!
Next to Mingyue Peak, the morning bell of Hongqinju rang early. The daily morning class time had arrived, but today was an exception. Today's morning class was canceled for the first time.
It was still dark, but the huge courtyard was already full of people. From the owner, butler and guests, to the servants, maids and cooks, dozens of people from the entire Hongqin Residence gathered together. Everyone had serious expressions, waiting for the owner Xu Feng to speak.
The owners Xu Feng and Shangguan Hongqin almost didn't sleep a wink all night. They spent the rest of the night sitting in the room worriedly, just looking forward to the sky lighting up early. When they thought of the missing sisters, they sighed and became anxious. They racked their brains and thought all night long, but they couldn't figure out why the two living people disappeared without any warning. They are always happy when I see them, and I don't see any abnormal emotions. Why did he just disappear without saying a word?
Today, there is only one thing that dozens of people in Hongqinju Hospital have to do, which is to continue looking for sisters Xu Lengyue and Chu Xihua.
Xu Feng stood on the high platform in the courtyard, his brows furrowed and his expression haggard. He seemed to have aged ten years overnight. The mighty and domineering heroism of the past no longer exists. What replaced him was an old man with worried eyes.
When the morning sun filled the entire courtyard, he spoke: "Thank you for thinking highly of me, Xu Feng, and following me for many years. I am deeply grateful to you all. Now, I feel deeply guilty about the inexplicable disappearance of my two children. Maybe It’s because I usually don’t care enough about them. I’m just busy with affairs in the world and never know what they’re thinking. I’m such an incompetent father. Today, I have to find them even if I have to dig three feet into the ground!” He paced back and forth on the high platform, his eyes were like a torch, and he gave an order in a deep voice: "Now, let's set off to the back mountain and continue searching!" He turned his head and glanced at the lady beside him, his eyes firm, as if conveying to her a sense of Courage and confidence like burning a boat.
Everyone was divided into two teams, and the arrangement was the same as last night. One team went to search the Wangyou Valley on the left side of the back mountain, and the other team headed for the Butterfly Garden on the right side of the back mountain. The two teams, totaling more than forty people, were walking mightily on the plank road leading to the back mountain in the morning light.
In the early morning, the back mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist, emitting colorful light under the gentle sunshine.
After a long night's sleep, the earth wakes up again and becomes full of vitality. Everyone was silent and looked serious. Everyone had only one wish in their hearts: they hope to find the two sisters as soon as possible. Then get to the bottom of things. Everyone is guessing in their hearts what the truth of the matter will be like!
Liu Ruyan still followed Xu Feng, silent all the way. Last night he lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
He spent half the night recalling every detail he had experienced with Huamei since childhood, as if those things happened yesterday. When he was a child, his master often took him and Huamei to practice martial arts together. They competed with each other in the backyard, and every day Every time, he would give in to the beautiful girl, pretending that he lost, and then lie on the ground, holding his chest and pretending to cry out in pain, pretending that he was hurt by the beautiful girl. Every time at this moment, the beautiful girl would throw aside the sword in her hand. , frightened by his pretended pain, his face turned pale, crying and shouting: Brother Liu, what's wrong with you, are you okay, don't scare me! At this moment, he couldn't help laughing. Then Hua Mei knew that he was deliberately pretending to scare her, so she would scold him as a bad brother and chase him... They were weeding in the vegetable garden together. Picking vegetables, chasing butterflies, catching crickets... We went to the river pond to catch fish together... We went to the tea garden to pick fresh tea for the master... All the beautiful past events were vivid in his mind. Thinking about them before, he would always smile unconsciously. .
But now when he thought about it, he only felt a kind of heart-piercing pain. As he thought about it, his eyes became moist without realizing it. A huge sadness enveloped my heart. After an unknown amount of time, he closed his eyes and fell asleep. He even had a dream. In the dream, he saw Huamei and Lengyue girl holding hands and running toward him in the sun. He searched hard for The beautiful girl finally came back and fell into his arms, crying bitterly! Afterwards, he and Hua Mei said goodbye to Uncle Xu and Mrs. Shangguan. After Xihua and Miss Lengyue said goodbye reluctantly, the two rode a white horse and embarked on the long road home...
Near dawn, he suddenly woke up from his sleep, looked at the empty room, and a line of tears rolled down his cheeks. It turned out that this beautiful scene was just a dream.
A group of people carefully searched the area they searched last night, focusing on the hidden corners that were not easily discovered. Liu Ruyan said to Xu Feng thoughtfully: "Uncle Xu, this junior has a bold speculation. I wonder if I should tell it or not?"
When Xu Feng heard this, his heart trembled, and he said eagerly: "My nephew, if you have any ideas, it's okay to say it!" He looked at Liu Ruyan eagerly.
Liu Ruyan's eyes flashed and he said thoughtfully: "We searched most of the area on the ground in Wangyou Valley last night, but we did not find any valuable clues. This shows that in these places that are not difficult to find, we can The chances of finding them are slim to none.”
He continued slowly, "I heard from Manager Ma yesterday that Miss Lengyue and Huamei often come to the jungle in the back mountain to look for dendrobium orchids. As far as I know, this kind of medicinal herb grows on steep cliffs. It cannot be easily discovered and picked. If the younger generation guessed correctly, is it possible that the two of them discovered the dendrobium growing on the cliff and accidentally fell off the cliff when they went to pick it?" At this point, , his eyes tightened, showing an expression of extreme fear.
They searched all areas of the back mountain last night, but found no clues. Now, there are only three steep cliffs left without searching. He had to come up with this terrible conjecture. Of course, this was already the worst-case scenario. If, as he expected, the sisters had fallen off the cliff, their chances of survival would be extremely slim.
After Xu Feng heard this, he was suddenly startled, and then he opened his eyes wide as if suddenly enlightened. A terrible premonition emerged from his mind: Could it be that the two sisters had really been buried under the cliff? Last night, I only focused on searching in the valley, but I didn't think about the three cliffs.
Xu Feng couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart that he didn't think well. Why didn't he think of what was under the cliff? Immediately, he waved his hand to call everyone forward and said seriously: "I just heard that Liu Shaoxia said that we only have no search under the cliff. Liu Shaoxia's conjecture is not unreasonable. Now we will go down to the cliff and search carefully." He ordered The man found two long cables and fixed one end of the two cables firmly to the trunks of two old trees hugged by three people on the edge of the cliff. Five strong servants held on to the ropes. Then the two of them tied ropes around their waists and slid down the cliff.
The cliff is extremely steep, and there are many thorns on the cliff. Looking down, it is filled with mist and unfathomable, and everyone can't help but feel timid. Seeing this, Liu Ruyan bowed her hand to Xu Feng and volunteered: "Uncle Xu, why don't we let this junior go down and explore! This junior grew up with his master in the Zhongnan Mountains since he was a child, and he often climbed rocks and picked with his master. , I have quite a lot of experience with the environment of the cliff, and I beg your uncle to allow me to go down and have a closer look!"
He looked at Xu Feng eagerly. Xu Feng hesitated a little, pondered for a while, frowned and said: "Nephew Liu, this cliff is a hundred feet deep. The cliff is steep and smooth. If you are not careful, your life will be in danger." , if something happens to you, how should I explain it to the master?" He couldn't help but have doubts, thinking that Liu Ruyan was a guest, how could he let him take this risk!
Liu Ruyan raised her eyebrows and smiled slightly: "Well... don't worry, uncle, if you encounter a critical situation, I will have a plan to deal with it! It's just that you need to send someone to go down with me. If there is an emergency, that's fine. Echoing each other.”
Xu Feng frowned, nodded slowly, sighed, and said seriously: "Oh, that's all we have to do. Nephew Liu Xian must be careful. If he encounters danger, he will send a loud arrow to the sky to inform Xian. Nephew, remember this!"
Then a brave and strong man was selected, with a barrel of crossbows tied on his back, a bag with food and water, and a rope tied around his waist. After careful inspection, five strong men The rope was slowly released at the edge of the cliff, and the two of them carefully and slowly descended from the edge of the cliff.
The morning fog did not completely dissipate in the sunshine. The cliff was still filled with thick fog and a vast expanse of white. The visibility was extremely low. They could only fumble with their hands and feet to find a fulcrum where they could step down. Liu Ruyan looked at the strong man descending beside him and said with a smile, "What do you call this big brother?"
The strong man with thick eyebrows and big eyes said with a smile: "My name is Lu Yuanming, everyone calls me Alu. Liu Shaoxia, you can also call me that."
Liu Ruyan said with concern: "Oh, it turns out to be Brother Lu. There is a hundred-foot abyss down here. The cliffs are wet and slippery. You must be careful."
The strong man had big eyes like bells, nodded, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Liu Shaoxia, for reminding me, I will be cautious, don't worry!" His smile suddenly faded, and there was a touch of sadness in his eyes: "Usually "The eldest lady is very good to us servants, and often gives us delicious food behind my back. I really don't know what happened to her and Miss Xihua. I hope God will open his eyes and bless them to come back safely." He suddenly remembered that the eldest lady in the past was The young lady was so kind to him that she felt sad for a while.
Liu Ruyan climbed on the cliff with her hands, moved her steps carefully, and comforted him: "Brother Lu, don't be sad, they are lucky people, they will be fine." At this moment, He suddenly saw that Lu Yuanming's foot slipped and one foot was hanging in the air and could not reach the fulcrum. He was startled and shouted: "Brother Lu, watch your step!"
Lu Yuanming grasped the tree trunk growing in the rock crevice with both hands, but his feet were slippery and he could not stand on a stable fulcrum. He could only hold on to the tree trunk tightly with both hands, pressing his chest and abdomen against the cliff. He looked down to find a suitable foothold while using his arms to move his body to maintain balance.
Seeing that he was in danger, Liu Ruyan tapped the rock wall with her left hand, and then released her right hand. With the help of her arms, she suddenly swung her body outward, kicked off the rock wall with her feet, and swung towards him. Go to his side, support his figure with both hands, and help him move to a small raised rock crevice. Seeing that he had stabilized his figure, he felt relieved.
The rope above was slowly lowered. After about half an hour, they had descended ten feet to the cliff. The two reminded each other to be careful about their safety, and looked around, looking for any trace of the sisters. While searching, he shouted loudly. The empty mountain was silent, and their shouts could only be heard echoing among the cliffs for a long time, but no response could be heard.
After searching the cliffs for a long time, he still found no clues. Liu Ruyan's heart couldn't help but sink a little bit: "Where are they? What happened to them? Could it be that these two living people really just disappeared out of thin air like this?" Has it disappeared?"
Of course he was unwilling to do so. He wanted to see the people alive and the corpses after death. No matter whether they were dead or alive, he wanted to find them.
At this time, Xu Feng, who was on the cliff, watched their figures gradually shrink until they disappeared from sight.
More and more ropes were put on the cliff, and the remaining ones became shorter and shorter. Although the rope was already very long, it was obviously not enough to measure this unfathomable cliff. Xu Feng saw that no news came from the two of them for a long time. He couldn't help but feel anxious and paced back and forth on the edge of the cliff. I was not only worried about the life and death of the two sisters, but also worried about the safety of the two people under the cliff!
He shouted to the two people at the foot of the cliff with his powerful internal skill "Lion's Roar": "Nephew Liu Xian, Lu Yuanming, how are you doing down there? Can you find any clues?"
On the cliff, his voice was like thunder, and the sound echoed continuously among the cliffs.
When Liu Ruyan and Lu Yuanming heard his shouting, they were suddenly startled. They both sighed. Liu Ruyan immediately used the "Thunder Technique" that his master had taught him to transmit sounds across mountains. He shouted to the cliff: "Uncle, we found no trace of the two of them below. We are now twenty feet below the cliff. Do you have any instructions?" As soon as the words came out, it was like thunder. Generally, waves of echoes vibrate between the cliffs, lasting for a long time.
At this time, half the morning had passed, and the thick fog shrouding the cliffs had gradually dissipated.
The scenery around the mountain wall became clearer. They had been down for almost two hours, but they still found nothing. Apart from the bare weathered rocks and weeds and trees growing in the cracks between the mountain walls, , there were no items left behind after falling from a height, and there wasn't even a trace of skid marks left by rolling down the cliff.
There was nothing unusual about the scene in front of me. It was eerily quiet among the cliffs, and there was silence all around, as quiet as death, with an indescribable strange and desolate atmosphere. It seems like this is a mysterious place isolated from the world. Occasionally, a breeze blew from the distant mountains, which felt cool and refreshing on their bodies, and also made their minds and thoughts clear.
The people on the cliff stared at the bottom of the cliff, waiting anxiously. However, as time passed by, no news came from below.
Xu Feng was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth, his mood gradually becoming irritable. Leng Yue and Xi Hua have been missing for a day and a half now. Their whereabouts and life and death are unknown. This is something that no father can accept. His daughter Leng Yue was born to him and Shangguan Hongqin when he was forty years old. He was naturally overjoyed to have a daughter in his middle age. He had doted on her since she was a child. As long as his daughter wanted something, he would do it. I tried my best to get it for my daughter. Even if Leng Yue wanted the stars in the sky, he would send someone to pick them for her.
Above Leng Yue, he also has a son who is eight years older than Leng Yue. His son's name is Xu Shiyu. She is suave and unrestrained by nature, and she has had one girlfriend after another at a young age. Once, when he was wandering alone in the Jianghu, he fell in love with a newly arrived top girl at the "Zuixiang House" in Qinghe Town. The girl had picturesque features, charming features, and a small cherry mouth as red as a burning ball. She has a beautiful flame, slender legs and willow waist, and is graceful and graceful. Not only is she beautiful, she is also good at playing, playing, playing, chess, calligraphy and painting.
The first time he saw that woman, his soul was taken away. After that, under various pretexts, he went to the "Zuixiang Tower" every now and then to drink and have fun. He said it was to listen to music, but in fact, he just wanted to take a look at the pretty beauty. During several drinks and conversations, the two gradually became familiar with each other.
It is said that because of this woman, she once had a fight with a rich man outside Zuixiang Tower. In the end, he accidentally missed and beat the other man to a disability. The rich man was so angry that he took him to court. In order to avoid jail, he could only hide his name and escape. I don't know where he fled to. Xu Feng sent people around to inquire about his whereabouts, but so far there has been no news.
The useless son completely disappeared from his life. A few years after Xu Shiyu committed the crime, he and Shangguan Hongqin gave birth to their daughter Xu Lengyue.
The arrival of their daughter gradually freed the couple from their longing and resentment for their useless son. Their daughter is smart and knows both cold and hot, which also gives them spiritual comfort. However, after so many years, they have never given up asking about Xu Shiyu's whereabouts.
Someone once saw his figure appearing in the southwest border. He sent someone to chase him and inquire about it. When he went to report back, he said that he had mistakenly recognized the person. Now it is not even clear whether he is dead or alive. And now, her daughter Xu Lengyue, like her brother she had never met, disappeared suddenly and inexplicably, as if she had disappeared from the world without any clues.
Unexpectedly, now, his daughter is exactly the same as his lost son many years ago. When he thinks of this, he can't help but feel sad and burst into tears. He looked up to the sky and cried out in sorrow: "What evil have I, Xu Feng, done? God, why do you punish me so cruelly? Do you really want me to cut off my descendants? Why? Why is all this happening?" The screams resounded among the stretching peaks...
Time passed by, and Guanshi Ma and Cuilian, who were searching in the Butterfly Garden, found no trace of the sisters. Just when everyone was dejected and disheartened, suddenly, a servant came to the Butterfly Garden. He fired a resounding arrow deep into a forest in the hinterland of the valley. The resounding arrow whistled and exploded in the air. Everyone followed the sound and saw him climbing on the tree trunk, waving his arms towards everyone, and shouting loudly: " Everyone, come here and take a look. I found a woman's handkerchief here. Come here quickly! "
He kept waving colorful signal flags in his hand. When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but be startled, and then they were overjoyed. He must have found some clues in the dense trees! Everyone ran towards the place where he fired the arrows. Steward Ma and Cuilian were the first to bear the brunt. When they arrived, the servant rushed to greet Steward Ma, bowed to Steward Ma, and said eagerly: "Tell Steward Ma, the younger one is in the woods ahead. I found a fan-colored handkerchief inside."
He took the handkerchief out of his pocket and handed it to Steward Ma with both hands. Butler Ma took a closer look and couldn't help but his eyes were bright. He frowned, his eyes flashed, and the hand holding the handkerchief trembled with excitement. He suddenly cried out: "Ah, miss, eldest miss, this handkerchief belongs to Shangguan." Madam gave it to Miss on her birthday last year."
He immediately shouted loudly into the woods: "Miss... Miss... where are you? Miss Leng Yue, where are you? Are you there?"
Cuilian and the others also shouted loudly, and while shouting, they looked around in every corner of the forest. In the lush jungle, Cuilian followed the place where she found the handkerchief and searched deep into the forest. Ten meters away from where she found the handkerchief, she suddenly discovered a remote path leading from here to the hinterland of the mountain wall at the edge of the Butterfly Garden. The trail is hidden in deep weeds and is difficult to find without looking carefully. A long series of messy footprints were left on the trail, extending all the way to the hinterland of the mountain wall.
Cuilian shouted hurriedly: "Everyone, come and take a look. There are many footprints here." Manager Ma and everyone gathered around after hearing the sound. Everyone was talking about it, and they all guessed that this was Miss Lengyue and Xihua. The footprints left by the girl. Everyone suddenly became energetic, and as they were talking, they immediately sent people to tell Mr. Xu over at Wangyou Valley.
At this moment, Xu Feng came over on horseback. It turned out that he had just heard the sound of arrows rising above the Butterfly Garden. Knowing that Manager Ma had made a new discovery, he quickly got on his horse and galloped over.
As soon as he came closer, he asked eagerly: "Guanshi Ma, have you found anything?" He looked at Guanshi Ma with bright eyes.
Manager Ma quickly bowed and took out the pink handkerchief he found and presented it to Xu Feng with both hands. He frowned and said, "Master, this is the handkerchief Wang Shun found in the grass just now. Master, take a closer look. This handkerchief is not correct." Is it the one Mrs. Shangguan gave to the eldest lady as a birthday gift last year?" He said excitedly, the expression on his face changing, whether he was happy or worried.
Xu Feng held the handkerchief and held it carefully, his lips trembled slightly, and there was a surprised expression on his face. At this time, Cuilian on the side said: "Master, I just found many footprints in the grass over there, heading towards the opposite mountain wall."
When Xu Feng heard this, his thick eyebrows were raised, and he hurriedly said to everyone: "Come on, take me to see it quickly." Everyone followed behind and passed through a dense bush. Deep in the grass was a small pond. In the pond There is a shallow reservoir of water, surrounded by tall reeds. The set of footprints Cuilian found was in the grass beside the pond. This place is located on the border of the Butterfly Garden, usually inaccessible, desolate and deep.
Hongqinju's whistle once patrolled the mountain and found thieves here. The two patrolling whistles chased the thief for several miles. In the middle of the chase, they suddenly disappeared and let him run away. Later, Xu Feng ordered a high fence to be built around the border of the butterfly garden, and some hidden weapons were buried in the grass beside the fence to prevent thieves from outside from invading again.
Xu Feng immediately sent people to rush to Wangyou Valley and asked Liu Ruyan, Lu Yuanming and others to come over here quickly. Xu Feng followed Cuilian, and Manager Ma also followed closely with a group of people, along the path by the pond, to the place where the footprints were found.
The set of footprints obviously did not come from the path they were taking now. Xu Feng looked at the long footprints that extended to the opposite mountain wall. He observed carefully that the footprints were not wide or too deep. They looked both It doesn't look like the footprints of an adult man, nor does it look like a child's. Judging from the size and depth of the footprints, it should be left by a girl.
He suddenly had an idea and asked Cuilian to lift her foot and put it on the footprint to see if it could fit. Cuilian raised her foot and tried it, and it really closed. Cuilian has just turned eighteen this year, Miss Lengyue is seventeen, and Miss Xihua is sixteen. All three are of the same age. Since they are of the same age, the size of their feet is not much different. Based on this analysis, there is no doubt that the series of footprints were left by sisters Leng Yue and Xihua.
Xu Feng and the others immediately followed the footprints to the opposite mountain wall. When the footprints reached the mountain wall, they turned a corner again and returned to the grass on the other side.
Seeing this situation, everyone was stunned. This mountain wall was obviously not the end of the footprints. Just as they were about to continue tracking back into the grass, they suddenly heard the sound of horses neighing in the distance. Everyone looked up and saw Liu Ruyan and Lu Yuanming riding over on horseback, followed by more than a dozen people.
Liu Ruyan and Lu Yuanming came closer, turned down the mountain, hugged Xu Feng, Guanshi Ma and others, and asked eagerly: "Uncle, have you found any trace of them?" His eyes flickered with enthusiasm. of light.
Xu Feng nodded and said: "Yes, I just found Leng Yue's handkerchief in the grass over there, and found their footprints here. Judging from the situation, they may be nearby."
Liu Ruyan's heart trembled, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she said eagerly: "So, they must have disappeared near here. Without further ado, let's follow the footprints to find them."
After that, everyone followed the footprints and searched all the way from the mountain wall. Liu Ruyan secretly said in her heart: "Miss Leng Yue and Sister Hua, you must be well."
The footprints extended to the mountain col about a mile away. When everyone came closer, they saw that the footprints turned a corner from the mountain col and entered a narrow path next to a canyon. This is a very hidden place in the back mountain. This narrow path leads to the cliff in front and is a downhill path from the back mountain. Xu Feng and Liu Ruyan looked at each other, and they both had doubts in their hearts: "Did they go down the mountain through this road?"
Everyone was shocked when they saw this remote road.
Xu Feng suddenly said: "This is a road from the back mountain to the bottom of the mountain. This place is remote, deserted, and the terrain is dangerous. Logically speaking, it is impossible for them to find this place." He turned to Liu Ruyan and said, " Nephew Liu Xian, why don’t you follow my uncle to investigate?”
He then said to everyone: "The road here is narrow and very dangerous. Let's wait here while my nephew Liu Xian and I go to investigate."
Liu Ruyan nodded and said yes, he had already been impatient.
Butler Ma said with doubts on his face: "The road here is narrow and there is a deep stream next to it. Brother and nephew Liu Xian must be careful."
Liu Ruyan hugged her fists towards Manager Ma and said seriously: "Thank you very much, Manager Ma, for reminding me. Don't worry, everyone."
After saying that, the two turned around and walked onto the path. The trail passed through the depression at the mountain col, turned sharply, and wound between two huge rocks. Xu Feng walked cautiously in front, looking around as he walked, and said to Liu Ruyan: "Xiannephew, do you think the two of them can Will you enter here?" He continued, "This is already a very remote place. I have lived on Mingyue Peak for more than 20 years, but I have never come here."
Liu Ruyan said quietly: "This junior really can't figure out how they could find such a dangerous place. But judging from the footprints found outside, it is inferred that they may be trapped inside." He sighed, "Maybe What danger have they encountered!"
The two cautiously stepped across the gap between the two boulders and entered a deeper area. While looking around, I shouted the name of sisterhood loudly. After walking for a while, I came to a few ancient trees with leafy branches. The ancient branches were so thick that it looked like it would take three people to hug them. It must have grown at least. For hundreds of years, there was a lush vegetation behind the ancient trees, covering a huge sunken rock wall.
Suddenly, a wisp of fragrance filled the air. The fragrance was strong and fragrant, refreshing. Xu Feng couldn't help but feel startled, and asked Liu Ruyan doubtfully, "Can my nephew smell a wisp of fragrance?" His expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Liu Ruyan alertly.
Liu Ruyan also became alert and said slowly: "Uncle, this junior did smell it too." He frowned and thought for a long time, then suddenly realized, his eyes lit up: "Yes, to be honest with uncle, this junior came from the front mountain yesterday When I passed by the entrance of a cave, I smelled such a scent!" A look of surprise appeared on his face.
Xu Feng hurriedly said: "Oh, is there such a thing? Where did my nephew see the cave?"
Liu Ruyan muttered: "Yesterday, I passed an iron cable bridge halfway up the mountain. After crossing the bridge, I walked a little further and found something on a mountain wall about two miles away from the top of Mingyue Peak. "Yes." The look of surprise on his face was even worse.
He continued: "This junior saw the thick white mist rising from the entrance of the cave. The words Patriarch Cave were written on the top of the cave entrance. On both sides of the cave entrance were written the Forbidden Areas of the Patriarch. Those who trespassed would be punished by two lines of red words." He paused. After a pause, he said, "I was curious, but I walked to the entrance of the cave and took a look. I didn't expect it. As soon as I walked to the entrance of the cave, I smelled a strong aroma, which is exactly the same as here."
After hearing this, Xu Feng lost his voice and said, "Ah, is there such a thing? Keep talking, what else did you see?"
Liu Ruyan said quietly: "Seeing something strange inside, the junior walked into the cave entrance warily. The cave was deep and unpredictable, but it was empty. Except for some collapsed gravel and a layer of shallow water stains, there was nothing None." He looked at Xu Feng doubtfully, "I just don't know where this fragrance comes from?"
Xu Feng frowned and said thoughtfully: "How come there is an inexplicable fragrance in this barren mountain and wilderness? This fragrance comes from a strange place, there must be something weird in it." He said thoughtfully, "Could it be Leng Yue and Xi?" Hua came here by mistake, smelled the fragrance, became curious, and followed the fragrance to find the dense forest?" He looked at the jungle in front of him that blocked the sky and the sun, and his doubts became even more intense.
Liu Ruyan raised her eyebrows and said hurriedly: "Then why don't we go in and have a look?"
The two of them carefully pushed aside the dense bushes, and suddenly discovered that there were several cracks on the rock wall hidden by the leaves. The cracks looked like door frames. The two looked at each other and couldn't help but feel startled. Liu Ruyan said: "Uncle, look, this seems to be a door?"
Xu Feng said in surprise: "Yes, this is a stone gate."
The two of them gathered their inner strength in their palms, groaned in their mouths, and pushed hard against the stone door together. Suddenly a loud "bang" sound was heard, Shimen was shaken by the force of the palm, and the stones fell off, flying everywhere. The two people then each fired another palm, only to hear the sound of "clicking" from Shimen, and in the four palms Under the fierce attack of force, the stone gate finally fell into pieces and collapsed.
A dark cave immediately appeared in front of them. The sight in front of them shocked both of them: There was actually a cave! This situation is really incredible.
The two of them were surprised and then calmed down.
Liu Ruyan pondered deeply and said slowly: "Uncle, this aroma definitely wafts from the stone cave. Could this cave be the Patriarch's Cave that this junior saw halfway up the mountain?"
Xu Feng's eyes flashed, he looked at Liu Ruyan and said: "Oh, that's right, the Patriarch's Cave you just said you saw on the mountainside also has such a fragrance, it must be the same cave. Come on, let's go in and have a look. , maybe Lengyue and Xihua are in the cave."
After that, the two slowly walked into the cave entrance. Seeing that the cave was spacious and completely dark, they took out the fire folds on their bodies and lit them, and slowly groped their way inside with the faint light of the fire. There are a few fallen gravels inside the cave, which is extremely cold and damp. The two immediately called the sisters' names loudly for a long time, but no one responded.
Liu Ruyan raised the fire folds high and said vigilantly: "Uncle, be careful where you step. It's dark and weird inside. I really can't figure out where this fragrance comes from. We need to be more careful." "
Xu Feng illuminated the cave wall with his fire folds, nodded, and said: "Yes, there must be some secret hidden in it." He said thoughtfully, "Do you think the two of them are in this cave? The stone door just now was hard. Like iron, how can they get in?"
Liu Ruyan sighed and said quietly: "Yes, this junior is also very puzzled. Perhaps all these doubts can be solved only by finding them. Uncle, let's go in quickly and take a look to see what the mystery is here. "
The two of them were walking, and suddenly, Liu Ruyan let out an exclamation. He tripped over something under his feet. When he took a closer look, he was startled. He saw what he was stepping on. It turned out that It was a white human skull. He immediately lost his voice and said: "Uncle, look, there is a dead skull here." There was a look of fear on his face.
Xu Feng took a closer look and saw that it was indeed a skull.
He looked around with the fire folds and said slowly: "There must be something else in here. Let's go!"
