After entering the mountain, walk west along the mountain road for a while, and there will be a gentle slope in front of you. At this time, the road was rugged and there were many potholes on the mountain road. The four people dismounted and tied the four horses to the roadside. Fang Yu led the horse carrying the bag behind.
After turning around a rock wall, a small canyon suddenly opened up ahead. There is a white waterfall flying down the canyon, evaporating a lot of mist and flowing into the deep pool in the canyon. There is also a layer of water mist on the surface of the pool of water, like a cloud. The most surprising thing is that the valley is not as dry and yellow as the outside, but there is a hint of green on the ground.
Li Boxen was stunned for a moment, thinking that there was such a paradise here.
Then I heard Sui Ziang say: "It is said that there is a warm water flowing under Zhangcheng City, and the source is this valley. The Nuanshui Lane that General Li visited a few days ago got its name from this."
Li Bochen said oh, and then remembered that he saw that the base of the wall of Li's house and under the rocks of the rockery were slightly moist. It was probably because of the warm water underneath that the snow there melted. He thought about it and thought that maybe the waterfall on the mountain came from a hot spring, that's why.
Just as he was about to speak, he tripped on a stone and stumbled.
Sui Ziang laughed again: "General, be careful where you step."
Li Bochen was waiting for a reply when he suddenly saw the sleeves of Ye Chengchou walking in front trembling slightly.
Ye Chengchou was in the front, he and Sui Ziang were in the middle, and Fang Yu led his horse behind. Ye Chengchou's hands were wrapped in his sleeves. There was no wind at this time, so it was undoubtedly his hands that were moving. Li Bochen was also a practitioner, so when he saw the trembling of his sleeves, he knew that it was Ye Chengchou who was making secrets.
Before a monk uses a spell, he can recite the incantation. If it is inconvenient to speak out, he can also use the incantation with his hands.
He felt a chill in his heart, thinking that they should take action.
He had an appointment with Tiger yesterday, so he didn't act rashly at this moment. He just calmed down and felt the feeling coming from the soles of his feet. Sure enough, after walking a few more steps, he felt a warm current spreading from the soles of his feet to all his limbs - this feeling was familiar, and it was the same as when the tiger on Wujing Mountain used the power of vitality to heal his wounds.
He must know in his heart that Mr. Zhangshan did not break his promise. So he just cheered up and pretended not to see what Ye Chengchou was doing.
But after taking two or three steps, he tripped again on a stone. When he was in Beiyuan, he climbed mountains and ridges as if he were walking on flat ground. At this time, his legs and feet were not able to move twice in a row, which was very abnormal. But Sui Zi'ang suddenly stopped beside him and said in a deep voice: "Li Bochen, there is something I am puzzled about and I want to ask you."
"Why did you come to Zhangcheng to collude with Li Guo's rebel party instead of being a good commander of the Infinite Army?"
Li Bochen was startled and wondered to himself, had he noticed the matter between him and Li Ding? But then he realized that this was Sui Ziang's excuse to kill him. Because of this surprise, he suddenly realized that he had been staying where he was for a while.
Just now, when I was standing at the intersection, I felt Sui Ziang beside me and Ye Chengchou in front of me. But when he woke up, he found that the two of them were already three or four steps away from him, and he was still spinning in circles. The stone that tripped me twice was the same stone.
Is this Ye Chengchou's technique? It is indeed more difficult to deal with than monsters.
Li Bochen stopped and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Sui, what do you mean by this? What do you want to do?"
Sui Ziang sneered: "I can borrow General Li's head."
Although he had known that they were going to trick him into Zhangshan Mountain and kill him, now that he heard these words coming from Sui Ziang's mouth, Li Boxen still sighed, thinking that the demon army in the north was about to invade the hinterland of the Sui Kingdom, but here they were still fighting against them. People's intrigues, I really don't know when it will end.
But he still looked surprised and glared: "You dare to kill the general of the army, don't you want to live?"
Sui Ziang laughed: "Of course I don't dare. But General Li died because he colluded with Li Guo's rebels to seize Zhang Shanjun's luck, and it's not my fault. Didn't you go into the mountain yesterday just for those rebels? Are you investigating the situation?"
At this time, Ye Chengchou frowned and said, "Master, if you are angry, leave it for later. Do business now."
Then he recited a few mantras in a low voice. Li Bochen's eyes flashed, and he suddenly felt that several trees on the roadside were shaking. They quickly moved together and turned into a cage, trapping him in it.
The strange thing is that while he felt that the trees had moved and formed a wall of trees to block him, he also knew clearly that those trees were actually in the same place, and this perception was just his own illusion. However, when he really wanted to go out, he would hit a tree no matter what he walked - even though there was six or seven steps of open space between the two adjacent trees.
Sui Ziang smiled and said: "Okay, Master Ye. I just laughed at this guy who is a bit stupid. He was already in the trap when he entered the mountain, and he only realized it now. Li Bochen, what's the use of your practice?"
He raised his hand and pointed at his head: "In Beiyuan, you rely on brute force to do things, but in Sui, here, you have to rely on your head."
Li Bochen took a deep breath and turned to look at Ye Chengchou: "Master Ye, do you also want to help the tiger? I am Che Beigong——"
Before he finished speaking, Ye Chengchou glanced at him and said, "Shut up."
With a wave of his hand, he didn't know what kind of magic was used, and Li Bochen heard a buzzing sound all around, as if his words were echoing in this small prison and could no longer be transmitted out.
Sui Buxiu looked at him with a smile, raised his hand and said, "Okay, Brother Fang, bring her here and get down to business!"
After hearing the greeting, Fang Bao led the horse carrying the bag over. Li Bochen frowned slightly as he passed by, as if he was worried that he was now at his wits' end. Li Bochen knew that if this person felt that he had not expected the current situation and was really in a desperate situation, he would probably protect himself wisely, so he smiled at him.
Fang Cheng was stunned for a moment, and his expression turned calm.
He led the horse to the water pool, took down the cloth bag, and untied the rope that tied the mouth. Li Bochen saw clearly that it was not drinking water, but an unconscious woman who looked familiar.
When Sui Ziang helped him drag the woman out, Li Bochen remembered. That day, I saw Sui Ziang holding a Jiao man and a Rakshasa man outside Cong Yunxuan Gate. This woman must be the Jiao man that day.
Are they going to use this dragon as a formation eye? ?
The Jiaoren woman was wearing clothes when she was dragged out. Sui Ziang took out a knife, picked out the ties of her clothes, stripped her naked, and clicked his tongue several times. Ye Chengchou frowned and turned away.
It was still really cold at the moment. As soon as the woman's snow-white body was exposed, a shimmer appeared on her elbows and knees. If she looked closely, she could see a thin scale growing out.
She didn't know whether she was under a spell or took medicine, but she still didn't wake up after being tortured like this. Sui Ziang picked her up and threw her into the pool with a thud.
