Shortly after Li Junchen and the others left, an old woman and a girl stood in front of the house that they had broken into.
The old woman's appearance was unremarkable. Although there were several wrinkles on her forehead, she didn't seem to be aging very much. It's just that her eyes are a bit strange. The red veins in the deep-set eye sockets are shining continuously. Her dilated pupils are staring at the coffin in the room, fixedly and sadly absent-minded.
The girl was wearing a red and blue long dress. Her eyes widened and her head was raised, exposing her slender white neck to the air, like a swan about to spread its wings and fly high. The girl looks more lively and cute.
"Uncle, why are the doors of these two rooms broken? They were fine when I came here yesterday!" The girl pouted her delicate mouth and said to the old woman with an unhappy look on her face.
The old woman looked calm, glanced at the wooden door that was broken into many pieces on the ground, and said solemnly: "The broken doors of these two households were forcibly broken by someone outside. It seems that the senior brother asked the second senior brother to lead people up the mountain. ”
"The person brought here by the second uncle is too unreasonable. The perfectly good door has been damaged like this. The wooden door will have to be repaired later."
The girl stepped heavily on the broken wood and gritted her teeth, as if she thought the broken wood under her feet was the unreasonable person.
The old woman sighed and said, "Fortunately, the coffin in the hall is intact, otherwise we would have to spend a lot of energy on it."
The old woman's tone was very calm, but the look on her face made it difficult to tell whether she was angry or not.
"Fengyue, let's go, go up and find the senior brother." The old woman waved her hand to the girl, telling her to ignore these things.
The girl raised her head and glanced at the old woman, and asked worriedly: "Uncle, what should I do with this door? Is it just open like this?"
The old woman smiled and said: "It's just two doors, it won't have much impact. Since this person has the courage to destroy this door, of course he has to press it up completely, otherwise I won't let him go." he."
Li Junchen and the other three were still admiring the scenery along the way, completely unaware that they were already being remembered.
The three of them followed the simple map given by the old Taoist and finally arrived at Thousand Stone Forest.
Standing here and looking at it, it's really strange. The mountains have simply changed. Their shapes are very different from what they look like from the plains or mid-mountain. They have become very layered, messy, majestic and strange. Looking up, the mountains are the sky, and the sky is also the mountains. There are mountains all around, as if your nose can touch the mountains at any time.
The sharp-knife-like hill carries a few wisps of milky white fog. In the mist, a slender line can be vaguely seen. Some of the rocks here are petite and exquisite, like spring bamboo shoots emerging from the ground, and some are exquisite and elegant, as if they are in bud. Some water lilies are so majestic that they look like waterfalls.
When you are in Thousand Stone Forest, you don't know whether what you are facing is a mountain, a rock, or a giant tree like a mountain.
Chen Tianwen looked at the scene in front of him and said in surprise: "This should be Thousand Stone Forest."
Li Junchen looked at the countless hills in front of him and couldn't help but sigh. This name is truly unique. He had no doubt that there were a thousand mountains in the area in front of him.
Most of these mountains are not high, only five or six feet, and the smaller ones are less than one foot.
But they were densely packed and intertwined, standing on the plain below them, like soldiers preparing to be inspected by the king on the school field, quiet and powerful.
Lu Youjing was stunned for a while. He felt that if he had such an army of giants, he would be able to sweep across the world and be invincible. There would be no opponent in one blow.
"Looking at this landform, it is obvious that the Thousand Stone Forest is in front of us. It really lives up to its name." Li Junchen sighed.
"How can we find the person the senior mentioned in such a large area?"
Chen Tianwen looked at the giant-like hill. It was probably like a maze. It was possible to get lost in it.
How about finding someone?
Li Junchen looked at Lu Youjing who was in a daze, and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Lu."
"Hmm~."
"Can you fly back and forth on the top of these two mountains as if walking on flat ground?"
Lu Youjing said with an arrogant expression: "The distance between these hills is only a few feet. I am in the Qi training state here. It is not the same as walking on the plum blossom pile. It is a trivial matter."
Li Junchen shrugged at Chen Tianwen and said confidently: "Brother Lu is flying above, and we are walking below. We are not afraid of getting lost or not finding anyone. At most, it will take a little more time."
Thousand Stone Forest is flanked by towering peaks. The distance between the peaks on both sides is only over a hundred feet wide. From the middle, there is a distance of fifty feet. If there is any big movement, it is not someone deliberately hiding their whereabouts and flying above it. Lu Youjing will definitely be able to find it. Even if Lu Youjing can't find others, others can always see Lu Youjing jumping up and down.
On the other hand, one party can always discover the other party. In Li Junchen's view, this is enough and his goal has been achieved.
When Lu Youjing heard that Li Junchen's method was indeed feasible, he stepped on these giant-like mountains and leaped back and forth. That would be as majestic as a general, with his own soldiers at his feet. This idea suited him very well.
He yelled and said vigorously: "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go."
Lu Youjing's eyes were full of excitement. He swooped down like an eagle, stepped on the soil on the hillside, and jumped down.
Li Junchen and Chen Tianwen walked along the mountain road and rushed towards Thousand Stone Forest.
The three of them had just set foot in Thousand Stone Forest, but they didn't expect the sky to suddenly change. The valley had been peaceful and sunny just now, but suddenly, a strong wind blew up, and dark clouds in the distance swept over everyone's heads.
The strong wind made the clothes of the three people rustle. Just as he stabilized his figure, Lu Youjing, who was standing on the top of the mountain, was startled by the sudden change in the sky. He leaned over to face Li Junchen who was walking towards him. , hurriedly shouted: "What's going on? Why did a strong wind start to blow as soon as we entered here?"
Li Junchen looked around, but there were no other changes. The hillside behind him was still behind him and did not disappear as he imagined.
He calmed down and responded loudly to Lu Youjing: "It's nothing. Maybe we were lucky. There was a strong wind here suddenly, and the hillside behind us is still there."
After listening to Li Junchen's words, Lu Youjing looked up at the dark cloud above his head and said worriedly: "Are you sure nothing serious happened? I feel like we have provoked something ominous."
Li Junchen rolled his eyes at Lu Youjing's brain.
"When have we ever messed with something dirty?"
Lu Youjing said worriedly: "The coffin in the house at the foot of the mountain is unknown."
Li Junchen said angrily: "This has changed. Don't think blindly. There is no one in the coffin. What's more, you don't know that there is a saying that you can get rich by seeing the coffin." What, it means we will have a great harvest during this trip."
"Then this is too..."
"Stop talking nonsense and lead the way."
Lu Youjing saw Li Junchen urging him, and since the other party was not worried, it was hard for him to say anything, otherwise it would appear that he was afraid of the mountain chief's apprentice, deliberately making excuses to prevaricate the other party.
He said no more, looked at the hills below him, leaped forward, paused from time to time, observed the nearby terrain, waited for Li Junchen and the others to catch up, and then jumped forward again.
Li Junchen noticed that Lu Youjing had increased his speed. In order to prevent Lu Youjing, the pathfinder, from disappearing from his sight, he trotted behind with Chen Tianwen and caught up.
Chen Tianwen was behind him and asked breathlessly: "Li Junchen, is it really okay for us to just rush in blindly like this?"
Li Junchen concentrated on chasing Lu Youjing's figure and shouted without looking back: "It's okay. The old man let us in. He couldn't have wanted to harm the lives of the three of us. It was unusual that day. Maybe it was just here." Such sudden changes have nothing to do with whether we can get in or not."
Li Junchen didn't believe what Lu Youjing said was ominous. The coffin was ordinary and empty inside. Even if it was a little weird at this time, he only believed that there were people on Fengmian Mountain who had such eccentricities. , just likes to play with making coffins.
"Don't say anything, be careful and follow me quickly."
Li Junchen warned Chen Tianwen that unlike him and Lu Youjing, who had martial arts skills at his side, this kind of trot was really nothing to the two of them.
But for an ordinary person like Chen Tianwen, it might be quite difficult.
Chen Tianwen raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his face, gritted his teeth, looked at Li Junchen's back and chased him forward.
The three of them were chasing each other through the Thousand Stone Forest...
Lu Youjing stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the horizon in the distance. The lightning and thunder were so loud and powerful that the power of heaven and earth made him feel a little scared.
Li Junchen caught up from behind, raised his head and shouted to Lu Youjing: "Brother Lu, why did you stop again?"
Lu Youjing leaned over and glanced at Li Junchen, and said, "You will know if you come up and take a look, there may be some danger ahead."
When Li Junchen heard this, he jumped up and stood beside Lu Youjing.
In the sky at the edge of the sky, countless lightning bolts danced in the dense clouds, like a god holding a chain in the clouds, constantly hitting the clouds and mist, radiating the anger in his heart.
"This lightning is indeed somewhat powerful." Li Junchen said softly.
Lu Youjing's mouth trembled when he heard the other party speaking so lightly, and he murmured to himself: "If this hits someone, it will be like a thunderbolt, and they will be instantly wiped out."
"Don't be afraid. We can't fly that high anyway. This thunder sounds scary. You go down to rest first, and I will come up to guide you. You will still have a fierce battle by then, so go down first to recover your strength."
Li Junchen looked at Lu Youjing and said.
