It is extremely dark at night in the mountains, and even a few rustling sounds can only be regarded as cicadas chirping in the middle of the night and birds leaving branches.
"Didn't I specifically tell you that I'm going to stop recently?" One person lowered his voice.
Another person also whispered, "It's the goods from Wanbaolou. The buyer was pressing hard, so the guys thought it would be better to finish the job and save the time of guarding the beast."
"If that's the case, how could there be such a big fuss?"
The other party said, "I was going to kill him, but the clinker was not killed by a single blow. The beast took the opportunity to break free from the shackles, and the Qilin Deer King happened to be nearby. This was not because he was afraid of making a big noise, and the brothers did not dare to Chase again.”
"Forget it, forget it," the man said, "Let's put this matter aside for now. Tell Wanbaolou that after this period of time, we will find a way to get the goods back."
"Then liquidated damages..."
The man asked impatiently, "Do you still need me to worry about such a trivial matter?" His deep voice was extra serious and he said, "Keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood. The most important thing now is calm weather."
"Yes, Senior Brother." The other party said again, "But, Senior Brother, do you really want to be so evasive? There are many gossips among the brothers. In the past, it was not that no one came to visit the mountain. It would be over with a little cover-up. , Do you have to stop everything you are doing this time?"
"What do you know?" The man said with a hint of anger, "I'm afraid I already know a little about Yue Yuehong, but she is always a member of the seven sects and is easy to manage, so it's not too important. The main thing is that Yu Tianqing, she is not only He is a disciple of the Tao Ancestor, and he is also a person who 'does the world'. If she finds out about it, do you think we can still do business in the future?"
"Senior Brother, it's not difficult to stop business, but a few junior brothers with weak cultivation will have a hard time without Lu Xin Suixu."
"Alas..." The man sighed, "Bear with it, I will go into the mountains with them tomorrow. I will make arrangements for my absence at that time."
The other party smiled sinisterly and said, "I will comply with senior brother's arrangements."
"Besides, have you done what I arranged?"
The other party said, "Everything is arranged."
"Well, very good." The low voice was extremely serious, "This matter is of great importance at this time. If it is done well, senior brother, I will be promoted. By then, Huanghuamen will be in the hands of our brothers."
"Junior brother understands that we will follow him and swear allegiance to him to the death."
"Very well, go ahead."
The bright moon was careless, and occasionally it leaked an inch across the hazy face, illuminating the white and shining delicate face.
Huang Yiliang squinted his eyes, his face full of complex expressions.
Faces come from the heart. What kind of expression expresses what kind of mood? The complicated face comes from a complicated heart. In other words, it is precisely because of having a heart full of mud. , so no matter how white your face is, you cannot see true cleanliness.
The wind is gentle and the sun is beautiful, and the winding paths are endless. The three of them set out on the road to the cursed land.
It was not as smooth as the previous walk, with mountains and rivers wading through wild ditches and thorns along the way.
Jiuyuehong couldn't help but said, "Senior Brother Huang, you're not taking us around the bush, are you?"
Huang Yiliang's face was full of innocence, "How could it be possible? Junior sister Hong, don't think too much, I can't bear to make the two junior sisters have to work so hard."
"Hmph, don't say it nice." Jiuyuehong stood on the top of the mountain and pointed to the woods not far away. "Don't fool me for not knowing the way. We need to go straight and go through the woods to get there." , you insist on taking us a long way up the mountain, how dare you say that’s not the case?”
Huang Yiliang said with a smile, "Junior Sister Hong is indeed very intelligent, but she only knows one thing but not the other."
"Oh?" Jiuyuehong looked at Huang Yiliang with doubtful eyes.
Huang Yiliang immediately explained, "The forest is called the 'Wetland Forest'. The forest is full of dampness, cold and miasma, and there are countless ants and insects. Monsters appear everywhere. Not to mention the two junior sisters, even I, who have lived in Cangmang Mountain for a long time, are... Don’t dare to get involved easily.”
"Oh? Is it as serious as you said?" Yue Yuehong asked suspiciously.
Huang Yiliang pointed at Yu Tianqing and said, "If you don't believe it, ask Junior Sister Yu if she almost accidentally entered it that day. Did she hear the roar of wild animals?"
Jiuyuehong looked at Yu Tianqing.
Yu Tianqing nodded and said truthfully, "Exactly. When I walked to that forest with my sword that day, I felt that the air flow was stagnant and it was difficult to enter, so I wanted to walk there to find out. At that time, I did hear the roar of wild beasts and A very strong smell of blood.”
Jiuyuehong looked at Huang Yiliang, and then at the forest at the foot of the mountain that seemed to be shrouded in mysterious fog, feeling thoughtful.
"But speaking of it, when Junior Sister Ri Yu said she was going for a walk, why did she go to the wetland forest?" Huang Yiliang asked.
Yu Tianqing said, "That morning, when I opened the window and looked out, I found a purple light deep in the forest. I was curious, so I wanted to see what happened!"
"Purple light? What kind of purple light?" Huang Yiliang was curious.
Yu Tianqing shook his head, "I wanted to see what happened, but I was blocked by this wetland forest."
Huang Yiliang lowered his head and pondered.
Yu Tianqing couldn't help but ask, "Senior Brother Huang, is there anything special about this purple light?"
Huang Yiliang said, "According to the ancestral records left in the door, every hundred years after the Cursed Land, a strange purple light will be emitted. Could it be the purple light that Junior Sister Yu saw?"
Yu Tianqing was surprised and said, "It can't be such a coincidence."
Huang Yiliang said, "Maybe Junior Sister Yu has a special opportunity, but we don't know."
"Then does this purple light have any special meaning?"
Huang Yiliang said, "There are no detailed records in the ancient books. But..." He stopped talking.
Jiuyuehong said impatiently, "If you have anything to say, just say it, why hesitate."
Huang Yiliang was snorted by Yue Yuehong, and said with a wry smile, "The two junior sisters don't know something. Do you know why the 'cursed place' is named after the word curse?"
Yue Yuehong said, "The Taoist ancestor once said that there is something ominous in it."
"That's right." Huang Yiliang said again, "Not only is there something ominous in it, but the person who enters it is also ominous."
Yu Tianqing couldn't help but asked curiously, "Why is this?"
Huang Yiliang said slowly, "Legend has it that this place is not a place on earth, but a place that wandered from another world."
"Are there such mysterious and nonsense words?" Jiuyuehong sneered.
Yu Tianqing said, "Otherwise." She knew the origin of Prajna Pavilion, and with her own origin, she naturally knew that there was a sky outside the sky, and there were many mysteries in the universe. She immediately affirmed, "The so-called 'different space' may not really be a In other space, our understanding of the concept of space is limited, so we think it is another world, but maybe it is just parallel in the same space and an unexpected connection."
Huang Yiliang looked at Yu Tianqing in awe.
"Junior Sister Yu is extremely intelligent and can actually have such an understanding."
