Zhenhaiguan is located on the border of the Western Region and is built on the mountains. It is named because Cangshan Mountain is as undulating as the sea.
In order to avoid shocking the world, Song Yun and his party did not enter the customs. Instead, they lowered the speed car early and walked to the sentry box twenty miles outside the town customs. General Xu Changsheng personally led a group of guards to greet them. Everyone who had met Kunlun Immortal Master.
Xu Changsheng is in his fifties, with a Chinese character face and a rough appearance. He wears casual clothes and has wild hair like a lion. However, he speaks and behaves very politely.
After a few words of greeting, Song Yun asked about the Kunlun disciple who was trapped in the miasma forest. Xu Changsheng called a general named Ouyang Quan and asked him to come one by one.
Ouyang Quan had met the immortal master. He called himself Yao and came from Kunlun. He was dressed like a layman and carried a long sword on his back. He was of medium build and had a big belly. There was a scar on his right cheek that extended from the tip of his eyebrow to his cheekbone. He appeared in the village about a year ago. In the customs of the town, the Hussars general sent troops to attack thieves and was not in the pass. Ouyang Quan received him and collected a batch of rare medicinal materials at his request, spending a large sum of silver. Before leaving, he asked Ouyang Quan for them. A map of the miasma forest.
There was no news about Immortal Yao until half a year ago, when a foreign caravan passed by the miasma forest and accidentally encountered a group of monkeys. They grabbed a sheathed sword and chased each other for fun. The porter became curious and used a few oranges to He teased the monkey and tricked the sword into coming over. The leader of the caravan was a knowledgeable person. He recognized the seal script on the scabbard as the word " hook sickle" and knew it was a good sword. He spent some money to buy it from the porter and waited for the caravan to enter the town customs. The sword was given to the superior as a gift, and after going through several circles, it finally fell into Ouyang Quan's hands.
Ouyang Quan speculated that Master Yao was probably trapped in the miasma forest and had an accident. He could not even save his sword. He hurriedly reported the matter to General Hussar. Xu Changsheng sent a message to Deng Yuantong, and passed the news to Kunlun.
Xu Changsheng handed the sword to Song Yun. Song Yun glanced at the seal script on the scabbard and knew that the lost disciple must be Yao Jiang. He was the only one in the Goujian Sect who used the flying sword.
After pondering for a moment, Song Yun asked Ouyang Quan about the name and quantity of the batch of medicinal materials, and asked him for a map of the same miasma leaf forest. Ouyang Quan was a shrewd man. Not only did he prepare the map well, but he also marked the location where the caravan encountered the monkeys.
Song Yun took the map and said to Xu Changsheng: "This matter is disturbing General Xu. General Xu has a capable subordinate."
Ouyang Quan was flattered, and Xu Changsheng smiled slightly. He had handled this matter very carefully, and being able to establish a relationship with the Kunlun Sect would be very beneficial to his youngest son's future in Xiandu.
Song Yun put away the map and said goodbye to Xu Changsheng. Deng Yuantong ordered Xu Li and Xin Laoyao to follow General Hussar back to the town and wait at the customs. Xu Li was reluctant and wanted to follow to watch the fun. Before he could speak, Xu Changsheng coughed. As soon as he heard it, he was like a withered flower - he was really afraid of this father.
Deng Yuantong also had his own considerations. Firstly, Xu Changsheng and his son had not seen each other for three years since they were separated by the immortal world. If they had the chance, they would get together for a few more days. After returning to the immortal capital, they didn't know when they could meet again. Secondly, they were afraid that there would be some danger in Miasma Yelin. , this nephew's cultivation is too poor, it would be best to remove him.
Xu Changsheng took his guards back to the customs town. Deng Yuantong watched them go away. He felt a little sad when he thought of the time when Xu Changsheng and his sister were newly married and galloped on the grassland outside the customs. How many years ago was that? My sister had been frail and sick since she was a child and was not suitable for childbearing, but she was unwilling to accept it and passed away after giving birth to Xu Li at all costs. By now, the pines and cypresses in front of the tomb must have been very thick.
Song Yun took the long sword out of its sheath and looked at it carefully, only to see that the sword was spotted with spots and covered with green rust, the blade was like a jagged edge, and the brilliance was flowing erratically. She sighed: "This is the green rust sword of Junior Brother Yao Jiang. Junior Brother Yao is the disciple of Uncle Lu."
Deng Yuantong was shocked. The Uncle Lu she was talking about was Lu Ping of the Gouyan Sect, one of the elders of Liushi Peak. He had a high position. It was said that he once competed with Taoist Ziyang for the position of the head of Kunlun, but was defeated by the Qingming Sword.
"The medicinal materials collected by Junior Brother Yao include Stanley Gum, Danvine, Marrow Yellow, Jiuyin Grass, and Catfish Dragon Beard. These are the main ingredients used to synthesize Wuma Powder. Wuma Powder has miraculous effects on snake dragons, second only to Requiem. "Xiang, what Junior Brother Yao is plotting is probably monsters like snakes and dragons." Song Yun unfolded the map, pointed at the locations where the monkeys appeared, and said, "Why don't we go here to take a look first. The green rust sword was found by the monkeys. Maybe it’s a clue.”
The hand-drawn map was very crude. It only roughly marked the periphery of the miasma leaf forest. It was shaped like a broken leaf. The place Song Yun pointed to was at the edge of the petiole.
Deng Yuantong looked at Song Yun's horse, and the four of them still flew in the direction of the miasma leaf forest in the Qianyun chariot.
The Miasma Leaf Forest is thirty miles west of the town customs. It is a dense forest full of rotten leaves and fallen fruits. It is full of miasma and inaccessible. Monkeys occasionally appear in the periphery of the forest. There is something hidden in the depths, even the border soldiers who are stationed in the town customs. The army doesn't know either.
As early as more than ten years ago, several foreign hunters who did not know the depth of their knowledge went into the miasma leaf forest to hunt together and never returned. In order to appease people's hearts, General Hussar sent a team of sergeants to search for the whereabouts of the hunters, but they also never returned. Since then, the miasma leaf forest has become a forbidden area for the local people.
