Noon has arrived and the sun is shining brightly. It is a good day today.
After chatting with the fellow at the entrance of the village for a while, everyone wanted to get up and leave.
At some point, a lot of fellow villagers had gathered in the village, about twenty or thirty people. A child ran back to the courtyard to report that there were some strangers from far away. Everyone was curious and gathered around. Come and see what's new.
In the crowd stood a tall and majestic old man with white beard and hair, looking at Xu Feng and others calmly. He was leaning on a dragon-headed crutch, wearing a purple robe, with a solemn look in his eyes, and he looked extraordinary.
As the group was about to mount their horses and leave, the old man in purple robe suddenly called out loudly: "You strong men, please stay!" His voice was loud and loud, and he hurriedly waved to Xu Feng and others.
Before, he had been looking at everyone quietly without making a sound. Now he suddenly said hello. Only then did a few people notice him. Then they were startled, stopped and looked towards him.
When everyone was surprised, the old man in purple robe took a few steps forward with a cane and said: "I advise you not to go there." He sighed quietly, "I wonder why you want to go to Savage Mountain? The people in the Hell Gate are ferocious and fierce. I heard that everyone has extremely high martial arts skills. I'm afraid you will be in trouble if you go there?" Deep fear and worry flashed in his eyes.
Xu Feng turned around and walked towards him, smiled slightly, clasped his fists and said: "Oh, this old man, I came all the way here just to find this hell gate. To be honest with you, I have a friend who was killed by someone from the hell gate. Hijacking, we are here this time just to find out the whereabouts of my friend. If he is really kidnapped by the people from Hell Gate, we will rescue him no matter what." He frowned, showing deep sorrow. color.
The purple-robed old man nodded slightly, then shook his head, and said solemnly: "I see, but that Hell Gate is a well-known devil's cave, and all of those people are murderous devils. You can count as a savage." Shan, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find out his traces. Hey, if your friend really falls into the hands of Hell Gate, there will be no chance of survival! I would like to advise you to think twice before you act!"
Xu Feng and others looked at each other and knew that the old man had good intentions, but the purpose of their trip was to find the Hell Gate and find out the whereabouts of Chu Yunfei. If he really fell into the Hell Gate, whether he died or died Life requires a truth.
Even if that place was a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and break into him. How could there be any reason to retreat in the face of battle?
These villagers talked about the situation at the Hell Gate with all their eyes and noses, and they obviously knew how serious it was. They couldn't help but feel their hearts beating, and they were caught in a dilemma for a while.
Lei Zhentian said to Liu Ruyan: "It seems that what these villagers say is true. We must be extremely careful."
He suddenly remembered that day in Wolong Valley, a group of mysterious masked men suddenly broke in, each holding strange-shaped weapons, and surrounded the thatched cottage. He and Chu Yunfei fought to the death with those mysterious people. After a fierce battle, they were no match for those people. During the fight, he was hit in the sleeping point, and he fainted. When he regained consciousness, those people and Chu Yunfei had already disappeared. There was only a note left beside him, saying that if he wanted to find someone, he would come to the gate of hell!
Now when I hear these villagers talk about the horror of the Hell Gate, it is true that their martial arts skills are extremely high and they cannot be easily dealt with.
Thinking of this, even though he had experienced hundreds of battles, he couldn't help but feel worried.
Lei Zhentian stared at the spear in his hand and said slowly: "Although we have found this place, we don't know the details of our opponent. It seems that this hell gate is by no means easy to deal with. To find out Brother Chu's situation, we have to Come up with a foolproof strategy, don’t take it lightly!”
Liu Ruyan looked at the vast distant mountains, nodded thoughtfully, and said quietly: "No matter whether the master is dead or alive, I will find him. I think so, when we get to the foot of the savage mountain, I will go up and touch him first. As for the situation on the mountain, please wait for my news at the bottom of the mountain! We are not familiar with the surrounding terrain. If we rush up there, we will not be able to escape unscathed if we encounter danger."
Luo Xiangxue frowned slightly and said worriedly: "Brother Liu, you are going up alone. If something goes wrong, there won't even be anyone to help you. I'm really worried!"
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. Just wait for me at the bottom of the mountain." He smiled at Luo Xiangxue, pretending to be relaxed. After listening to what the villagers said just now, he felt uncertain. In order to find the master, even if there were huge risks, he had no choice but to face it bravely.
After Xu Feng chatted with the purple-robed old man for a long time, he turned around and walked over. He said to a few people: "We will arrive at the bottom of the mountain in a while. We will act according to the situation. We finally found this place. We must not give up easily. It is getting late, let's leave now!"
Everyone thanked the villagers for their kind words, got on their horses, and rode off toward the official road outside the village.
The horses' hooves churned, raising clouds of dust, and the whistling wind sounded in their ears as they headed north, straight to the Savage Mountain behind Yangguan Town.
After galloping for half an hour, the group arrived at Yangguan Town.
There are five long streets in Yangguan Town Market, arranged in a Z-shaped pattern, namely East Street, West Street, South Street, North Street and Middle Street. Among them, East Street and South Street are the most prosperous and lively. Most of the people who come here to go to the market are nearby villagers, and there are also some business travelers traveling from north to south. Among them are some people dressed in weird costumes. Some merchants led the horses carrying goods along the long street slowly. When they saw the fast horses galloping, pedestrians fled.
Today is a market day, and the streets are bustling with people, and the sounds of various hawkers are coming and going. It's so lively, and there is a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere everywhere.
Everyone came to the street, stopped their horses, and got down one after another.
It was already past noon, and everyone was already hungry. In addition, they seemed a little sleepy after not being able to sleep well last night. My body always feels weak and exhausted.
Xu Feng said to everyone: "Let's find an inn to have something to eat first, and then ask for a few rooms to rest. We are all too tired after traveling long distances these two days. It rained heavily last night and we didn't sleep all night. We have to rest first Okay, let’s explore the hell gate again!”
Lei Zhentian looked at the bustling market and said worriedly: "I think this hell gate must be extremely dangerous. We need to take a long-term approach."
Liu Ruyan and Luo Xiangxue looked at each other, feeling confused in their hearts.
Everyone led the horses into the long street, and after not walking far, they came to the door of an inn called "Zuixiangyuan". When the waiter at the door saw a few people approaching with horses, he came up to them with a smile and asked them to stop their horses and come inside.
A few people tied their horses into the stables and followed the waiter into the lobby, where several tables of diners were already sitting sparsely. The waiter greeted several people to sit down, then hurriedly ran to bring tea, poured it for everyone, and introduced the various delicacies in the store to everyone.
Xu Feng followed everyone's wishes and ordered a plate of plain-cut chicken, a plate of five-spice beef, a plate of stir-fried kidneys, a plate of steamed mandarin fish, a plate of stir-fried anchovies, and two pots of aged daughter's red wine.
Everyone paid close attention to the diners in the hall. Judging by their clothes, most of them were villagers going to the market and some peddlers. There were a few Jianghu people sitting in the corner by the window on one side. On the other side, there was a strange-looking man in white sitting in the middle. There were two plates of food on the table. The man was just drinking one glass after another, as if he was worried.
They focused on observing the people in the Jianghu. The few people by the window talked about what happened in the Jianghu while eating and drinking. When he talked about being energetic, his voice became louder, and he would hit the table and start drinking from time to time. The man in white who was drinking the wine occasionally raised his head and looked over there, with a look of disdain on his face, but he didn't say a word and just cared. Drinking his wine.
Not long after, all the wine and food were brought to the table. Xu Feng asked everyone to use their chopsticks. Everyone was already very hungry, so they started eating with big mouthfuls.
