Pagoda Peak.
This is the place where Chu Liang often comes to meet with Senior Sister Jiang in private, so naturally he will be a little familiar with it. In addition to the Water Curtain Cave, there are many places on the mountain.
The most conspicuous thing is a pit valley, which is said to be where the Demon Suppression Pagoda used to be. After the pagoda was lost, there was only a huge pit here, which over time turned into a valley. I believe that most Shushan disciples came here to pay homage to the ruins. ,
The place surrounding the second clue is almost exactly the same as the scenery seen in this valley.
Chu Liang fell down, looking around for his position, spreading his consciousness and moving forward slowly.
Finally, in the middle of the dense forest, I found the approximate exact location. There was a huge boulder here, and it seemed that I had to push it away.
Chu Liang reached up with his arms and pushed the boulder away effortlessly. This huge boulder is not light, and it may be a little difficult for practitioners in the third realm. But as far as Chu Liang is concerned, not only has his cultivation level increased greatly, but his physical strength alone is enough for him to push this boulder.
There was a rumble and the boulder moved away.
Sure enough, a dark cave entrance was revealed inside. The surrounding soil was soft and dark. It seemed that it had just been dug out not long ago, and it should have been prepared for this mountain god festival.
Just as he was about to lean in, he heard a cry of "嚄啰啰" not far away, and a lightning-like silver light rushed over, and was about to hit him.
laugh--
Before the lightning hit Chu Liang, it suddenly recognized his appearance, stopped suddenly, and drew two deep tracks on the ground.
"why you?"
Chu Liang hugged the Baize cub that crashed into his arms and asked curiously.
"Hey!" Bai Ze's cub raised its head and shouted, looking proud.
Chu Liang looked at it and laughed: "Did the elders arrange for you to be the guard of the third clue? Isn't this too bullying?"
This is really a big problem.
As long as the boulder is pushed aside, the Bai Ze Cub will appear in the way. Those ordinary disciples in the third and fourth realms will not be the opponents of the Bai Ze Cub. Even if many people can unite to deal with it, who would dare to be cruel to the Shushan mythical beast?
Or maybe this is the intention of the question maker...
They didn't want a single team to be able to get the next clue, so they arranged for the Bai Ze cub, which required many people to work together, to be here, so that several teams could join forces to get the third clue.
Fortunately, this level is not difficult for Chu Liang.
He pointed lightly toward the entrance of the cave and said, "Lead the way!"
Bai Ze's cub immediately let out a "hoo!" and ran forward happily, rebelling on the spot without hesitation.
With it leading the way, the journey deep into the cave was extremely smooth. There were some mechanical formations that crackled on the Bai Ze cub. It had strong skin and thick flesh and walked in like a leisurely stroll.
The senior officials of Shushan probably did not expect that the second level they arranged would personally destroy the third level.
All the way to the deepest part of the cave, there is a wall made of jade.
There is another picture engraved on the wall, which shows a full moon in the sky, hanging in the center of the sky, and there is a white and transparent cup in the moon disk.
White jade glass cup.
What does this painting mean?
Does it mean that the white jade glass lamp is on the moon?
Chu Liang knew that this was the third clue. If you solved it, you should be able to find the final white jade glass cup. But this clue is indeed more elusive than the previous one.
After pondering here for a while and making sure that there were no other clues left behind, Chu Liang decided to exit the cave.
In fact, before leaving, there is another way he can do it, which is to destroy this jade. In this case, he is definitely the only one in Shushan who can get this clue.
But he didn't.
…
Two days later, the entire Shu Mountain fell into a craze.
That is the second clue in analyzing the Mountain God Festival, and thinking about the meaning of the four chaotic paintings put together.
At first, those who got the clue thought it was a secret and studied it quietly. But soon someone discovered that almost all the teams participating in the Mountain God Festival had bought this picture scroll.
But it doesn’t matter, everyone has it just for discussion. Most people who should have been eliminated long ago have the pleasure of participating.
In all the mountain god festivals in the past, there has never been a time when no one was eliminated in the first round and everyone entered the second round. All this is thanks to a handsome guy who is selfless.
"Wow...that's a lot of sword coins."
The members of the Mountain God Festival team gathered together and sighed at the small mountain-like sword coins. This time, almost all the teams in Shushan bought their clues, and together they collected almost 7,000 sword coins.
This is more than Chu Liang imagined.
This achievement is thanks to Lin Bei, who sold more than half of the clues alone. There were some teams that were not very interested in this, but they had already been judged to have failed by Yunyao Peak Three Little Ones. They were all sold out by him because of his second door-to-door sales pitch.
Chu Liang looked at his elated expression and felt that if this guy went to sell houses, he could probably support a real estate project by himself.
"Everyone has contributed a lot this time. Each of you can get 20% of these sword coins." Chu Liang said.
Several people were overjoyed when they heard this.
20% per person, is this equivalent to an equal share among five people? This is a huge sum of money.
But when I thought about it again, I felt a little embarrassed.
Especially Lin Bei. He and Chu Liang shared the profits from Black Whale Mountain equally last time and had already made a fortune. I feel really bad about taking advantage again this time.
He said aloud: "Is this good? You are in charge of the whole process, and we all get 20%. Isn't it unfair to you?"
"It's nothing." Chu Liang said calmly: "I got 92% which is quite a lot."
"...So that's it." Lin Bei immediately restrained his shame.
Oh, so this is how your Silver Sword Peak division is calculated.
But even if it is 2%, there are still more than a hundred sword coins, which is already a lot for a normal disciple of the Divine Realm. If they hadn't followed Chu Liang, it would have taken them a lot of time to earn so many sword coins.
Follower A said: "Actually, our efforts are not exactly the same. Brother Lin Bei sells much more than us."
Lin Bei waved his hand, "Hey, there's no need to worry about these."
"Yes." Chu Liang also said, "You three, just try harder next time."
"Hmm..." Follower A nodded, suddenly feeling something was wrong, "What next time?"
Several people were happily sharing the spoils when they suddenly heard the chirping of white cranes outside, and another letter from Chu Liang came from Tongtian Peak.
Chu Liang opened it and found that Mr. Shen was calling him.
Seeing that the tone was quite urgent, things here were finished anyway, so he hurried over.
As soon as he arrived at Changjian Pavilion, he saw Mr. Shen waiting there with a pleasant smile.
"Do you know why I called you here this time?" He asked Chu Liang.
"I guess there must be another difficult task for me?" Chu Liang said.
"Smart." Mr. Shen nodded, "This time is not a trivial matter. Yanbo City in the East China Sea seems to have discovered traces of the Demon Sect's Soul-Slaying Sect. Nearly ten mortals have been killed. It is suspected that it was the remnants of the Soul-Slaying Sect in the third realm. .So we need a Jindan realm disciple to lead the arrest, and I recommended you first."
"Thank you, Mr. Shen, for the recommendation." Chu Liang thanked him hurriedly.
Chu Liang is not too familiar with the name Soul Killing Sect, because it was destroyed by a blow hundreds of years ago, leaving only some remnants that occasionally appear. Once they show up, they will be hit hard by the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Involving the Demon Sect's killing of mortals in human cities is definitely an important task with the highest priority. The demon-elimination and defense method that Shushan has always admired does not eliminate this kind of demon.
Recommending him for such an important task will indeed allow Chu Liang to enter the senior management of Shushan earlier. Although he has long been in the sight of high-level officials...by following his master's extortion methods.
I can only say that doing tasks well is also an opportunity to improve your reputation...
"Do this mission well, and if the team goes well, your treatment in the mountain will probably be the same as that of Xu Ziyang and Jiang Yuebai from now on." Mr. Shen added another point.
Being equal to them is naturally the treatment that core disciples receive.
"Disciple must go all out!" Chu Liang said suddenly.
"This task also requires two to three disciples of the divine realm. Do you want to recruit them yourself or should I recruit them for you?" Elder Shen asked again.
Chu Liang couldn't help feeling a little emotional when he heard this. Not long ago, he was the one who followed him. Now, he has become the golden elixir realm disciple who leads the team.
He thought for a moment and said, "I'll call two of my classmates. It's easier to work with people we know well."
"Okay." Mr. Shen agreed.
After Chu Liang returned, he called Shang Ziliang and Lin Bei again.
"The higher ups have arranged an urgent mission for me, and I need to take two divine realms with me. If you have nothing to do, please come with me." He said.
Shang Ziliang is at the peak of the divine realm and is preparing to form elixirs. He is considered to be the top combat power in the divine realm on Mount Shu. Although Lin Bei is only in the late stage of Divine Realm, it is very useful when going out. Taking one with you can save you a lot of trouble.
It happened that they were familiar with him, so Chu Liang chose them both immediately.
Lin Bei naturally agreed completely, and Shang Ziliang said: "Do you want to do a mission? How about I bring my two brothers with me, so there are more people and more work."
"Well..." Chu Liang pondered for a moment and said, "With your two brothers, our combat power may not be much stronger, but the increase in food expenses will be very significant. Maybe next time."
Shang Ziliang could only nod: "Indeed."
Good morning.
