Wu Sheng gained a lot from this trip down the mountain. He almost broke Taoist Mai's cave formation, got the Feihong Sword, and learned an extremely important piece of information: Taoist Mai seemed to only know his approximate location, and the smoke in his arm. Liu Fuchensi couldn't provide him with the precise location!
In addition, he calculated the fastest time to reach Shibatai and Lianpuji. Unfortunately, the counting time of Taoist Mai was not available because he was not at Shibatai and we don’t know how far he is from Lianpuji.
Therefore, another test is needed.
Wu Sheng continued to instruct Mrs. Sang in refining elixirs, and Mrs. Sang continued to pile up her bamboo slips that were getting taller and taller. Wu Sheng also kept counting, counting at any time and in any place, making counting a habit for him. , to ensure the stability and continuity of the counting interval.
Another seven days later, when the number of pills reached seven, Master Dongzhu appeared in the pine and bamboo forest as promised.
Still using the old method, Wu Sheng took advantage of the time when Mrs. Sang was busy refining elixirs and slipped out of Songzhu Yayuan. With the same instructions, Master Dongzhan got the five hundred ant nose coins and went to the stone waterfall platform with a smile on his face. Wu Sheng went to the stone waterfall platform again. I inserted a branch and counted the hours silently.
After an hour and a half, I got up and wandered to the courtyard gate. There were no pine cones on the ground.
Wu Sheng turned back and pointed out the wrong way to control the real fire. After waiting for a cup of tea, he returned to the courtyard gate again. There were still no pine cones on the ground.
Taoist Mai did not go out in the cave!
Wu Sheng took a deep breath, slipped out of Songzhu Yayuan, ran down the mountain, and started counting.
This time the direction he chose was no longer Lianpuji, but Hongshui northwest of Langshan Mountain. Since the specific location of Mayi Taoist was determined, Wu Sheng was able to choose a straight line. It was seventeen miles from Mayi Taoist's stone waterfall platform to Songzhu Yayuan, and twenty-eight miles to the bank of Hongshui in the northwest. This line The total length of the straight line is forty-five miles.
The mountain road is difficult to walk and cannot be compared to the flat ground. Even if Wu Sheng rushed on the road, it took him a full 5,980 digits to reach the bank of Hongshui. Then he sat here and waited for Taoist Mai to appear while observing. The width of this section of Hongshui.
The water surface is more than a hundred feet wide. If you want to cross the river, you can't cross the river. Mayi Taoist can climb Pingping to cross the water, which is much faster than himself. He must find a way.
In addition, when sitting by the river and checking the terrain, a new question emerged - there is at least seven or eight miles of flat land on the other side of the river. Looking at it, it is clear at a glance, how can we safely cross these seven or eight miles of flat land?
While thinking, he counted. When he counted to six thousand one hundred and fifty, the figure of Taoist Mai appeared in Wu Sheng's field of vision. This test was completed.
Taoist Mai asked: "What explanation do you have this time?"
Wu Sheng replied: "I was not allowed to go out for more than half a month, and it was really uncomfortable, so I came to the river for a walk to relax."
The price of distraction is another painful torture.
Of course, he obtained more detailed data.
Master Dongsun left a handwriting on a pine tree outside the courtyard at night: Shen Shi San Qi.
In other words, after Wu Sheng escaped down the mountain, Taoist Mai used about 500 numbers to get out. This was his reaction time. In the next 45 miles, he used 5,700 numbers. Compared with the last time I went to Yingting, the further away from the mountain, the faster Taoist Mai chased him. His chasing speed was about twice as fast as his own speed!
If he fled from this direction, he would only have less than 200 miles of chance. It would be extremely difficult to cross the river and cross the seven or eight miles of flat land in less than 200 miles.
Apart from Lianpuji, this direction is the closest way out of the mountain. If you go in any other direction, you may be caught by Taoist Mai before you jump into Hongshui. However, there are too many acquaintances in Lianpuji, and they will be seen if they show up, let alone leave.
Of course, whether Taoist Mai has gone all out and whether his reaction time will be shorter is unknown. Wu Sheng has no way to find out. The only thing he knows is that if he escapes, there will be at least five hundred people. Several buffer times can be utilized.
Five hundred, I'm afraid I won't be able to transform the whisk silk into a crack, so I will have to use the Feihong Sword when the time comes. Only by cracking the whisk silk in the shortest time can I have a chance to escape secretly. As for being sealed by the Shenyin Peak Master The air sea can only be dealt with after escaping.
But when the sea of qi is sealed and the true energy cannot be transferred externally, his cultivation and fighting ability are greatly reduced, which greatly affects his escape speed. This is also a very troublesome problem.
It has been twenty days since I refined the pills, and nine pills have been completed. The progress is slightly slow. According to this estimate, by the end of one month, thirteen or four pills will have been completed.
Mrs. Sang was not very satisfied with this. She said with a threatening tone: "If the layman is not very dedicated, isn't he worried at all?"
Wu Sheng said: "There is no way, your level is like this, what can you do?"
Mrs. Sang sneered: "You were not thinking about this, and you escaped twice. Is it your fault or mine?"
Wu Sheng wandered around the courtyard: "I'm in a bad mood. Will I be killed if I go out for a walk?"
Mrs. Sang said: "If you work hard, maybe the peak master and the Taoist priests will forgive you, but if you don't refine the elixir properly, you will definitely die."
Wu Sheng said: "No, you are as stupid as an ox, difficult to teach, and you don't listen to my instructions."
Granny Sang asked: "Which step did you teach me that the old lady didn't listen to?"
Wu Sheng wandered to the edge of the deep pool: "For example, if I ask you to come to my room at night, but you don't listen, how can I train you if you don't come?"
Mrs. Sang sneered: "My cultivation level is not high, but I am a hungry ghost in lust. If this is the reason, then don't even think about it..."
Suddenly hearing a "pop" sound, Wu Sheng jumped into the pool.
Mrs. Sang frowned and came to the edge of the pond: "What are you doing?"
Wu Sheng sank into the pool, about ten feet above the water, and held on to the stone wall beside the pool without moving, while he began to count in his mind.
Mrs. Sang stood on top and said: "Don't think about my old lady going into the water. If you want to stay in the water, then stay there."
After a while, Mrs. Sang went to the kitchen to pick up a big broom and stabbed it into the water. However, the broom was not long enough and could not touch Wu Sheng. She used her hand as strength and used the broom as a spear to stab him down.
This hit Wu Sheng's shoulder, causing him pain and causing him to sink several feet.
The broom floated up, and Mrs. Sang flew down again, but was caught by Wu Sheng who was prepared.
Mrs. Sang picked up some stones and shot them into the water one by one, while Wu Sheng waved his broom to cover his head.
A smile appeared on the corner of Mrs. Sang's mouth. She sat on the edge of the pool and started hitting pebbles. The amount of real energy she poured into her became more and more fierce, and the broom was even broken.
This time there was no way to avoid it. Wu Sheng swam in the pool to avoid the stones, but he was still hit in several places.
Just when he could no longer hold on and was about to surface, Taoist priest Mai appeared at the edge of the pool and said coldly: "What are you doing?"
