Since he knew that running around in this dense fog would only be a waste of time, he calmed down and thought to himself that he might be able to find a way out if he walked straight instead of going around in the fog.
I didn't think too much at the moment, just held the cold blade tightly and moved forward based on my feeling.
Marching in the thick fog, Qining didn't know when he would reach the end. After a long time, he suddenly saw a rock wall in front of him. He felt a little happy, quickened his pace, and approached it. He saw that there was indeed a rock wall in front of him. Qining frowned as his way was blocked. In desperation, he could only turn down the direction along the root of the rock wall.
After walking for less than a stick of incense, I suddenly felt that the stone wall on the side was sunken into the inside. I suddenly felt strange. I looked carefully and saw that the sunken area was about one meter wide. It looked like a stone door, but there were no holes on the stone wall. There was no gap. I raised my hand and pushed luck on the stone wall, but it didn't move at all.
He took back his hand, thinking that creation was magical, and maybe this stone wall was naturally like this, but he still felt weird in his heart. He stood up straight, pushed his arms hard on the left side of the stone wall, and still didn't move. He was a little discouraged, but he still tried to move forward. Pushing hard on the right side, I felt the stone wall swaying slightly.
Qi Ning was overjoyed. He was worried that he would not be able to find a way out and would be trapped in the thick fog. When he saw something strange about the stone wall, his first thought was that this stone wall might be a way out of the fog. , took two more breaths, gathered the energy in both palms, pushed hard, and felt that the stone wall slowly receded, and it turned out to be an extremely thick stone door.
It turns out that this stone gate is not mechanical. If it were not for innate divine power or deep internal strength, it would not be able to move.
After Qi Ning learned the Liuhe Divine Art, he absorbed all the internal energy of Jiutianlou Mu Shenjun. The internal energy of the Mu Shenjun was already profound and he was also a first-rate master in the world. Qining's acquisition of his internal energy was already extraordinary. Since then, he has absorbed countless amounts of energy intermittently. The young man's internal strength, especially Swing Yi, was also absorbed by Qining. Qining also had to teach Xiaoyao the luck method from the young master of Fengjian Villa. Today's internal strength is quite extraordinary. Because of this, he This stone door can be pushed open.
After the stone door opened a gap, Qining stopped, took a deep breath, and first looked inside, only to see that it was quite dark inside. He ducked in. Behind the stone wall, there was no thick fog, but A long corridor.
He walked carefully along the corridor, only to feel that the corridor was sloping downward, getting lower and lower as he went. Soon the corridor turned left. Qining was afraid that there was an ambush in the corridor, so he was extremely careful. After walking for a while, he found that This corridor is in the shape of a spiral, spiraling downwards and getting narrower and narrower. At first, two or three people could walk parallel to each other, but now even one person can barely pass through.
I don’t know how long they walked, but Qining felt that it was a little difficult to breathe. Fortunately, at this time, he found a glimmer of light in front of him. He felt happy and quickened his pace. He finally walked out of the corridor. The moment he walked out of the corridor, he felt his eyes light up, but I found that I had arrived at a garden-like place.
All he could see were red plum trees and green bamboos. Since he went up the mountain, all he could see were cliffs and sheer cliffs, and he had fallen into the mist. At this moment, seeing the beautiful scenery in front of him, he felt relieved. He looked around and saw only red trees. There is a rockery among the plums and green bamboos, but there is no one around.
It's just that although there is beautiful scenery in the eyes, the air is still extremely cold.
Qining secretly thought that although Qianwuling was located in the western border, it was already March in spring, and there was no such cold feeling at the foot of Qianwuling Mountain. However, for some reason, after entering the mountain, the temperature was indeed so low, as if he was in the middle of nowhere. In the cold winter, his clothes were not thick. If he had not been strong and had cultivated his internal strength, it would be difficult for him to withstand such cold air.
Stepping lightly around the rockery, he saw a pool of water in front of him. It was quite similar to the pool he saw when he woke up, except that the pool was obviously much larger. What surprised Qining even more was the water on the water. Has frozen into ice.
Qining was greatly surprised. He walked closer and saw that the surface of the pool was covered with ice. He knocked on it and found that the ice was extremely thick. Qining stepped on it lightly and walked a few steps. It was able to bear the weight of his body.
Walking to the middle of the ice pool, Qining suddenly felt that there seemed to be something under the ice. He squatted down and looked down through the ice.
The water in this pool is extremely pure, so even if it freezes into ice, it is still transparent and clear. It is not like the turbid water in ordinary pools. Once it freezes, you can't see clearly what's going on underneath.
Through the ice, Qining discovered that there seemed to be a large long box deep in the bottom of the pool. It looked like a coffin.
But he knew in his heart that it could never be a coffin, and the coffin-like thing was not made of wood, but rather seemed to be carved from jade or something like that.
Qi Ning was greatly surprised and couldn't figure out why this sarcophagus-like thing was at the bottom of the pond. Could it be some rare treasure hidden here, but he accidentally bumped into it
He was curious and thought about breaking the ice to have a look, but he quickly gave up the idea.
With his internal strength, it is not difficult to break the ice on the lake, but he knows very well that there is a cave here. He must have inadvertently entered a very important place in Qianwu Ridge. There is no guarantee that there will be someone nearby. Once the ice is broken and a sound is made, it will definitely alert others and may lead to disaster.
Gold and silver treasures are certainly good things, but now that we are in a difficult situation, getting out of the predicament is the most important thing.
After walking across the ice and reaching the other side, there was a denser bamboo forest in front of him. In the bamboo forest, there were occasional plum blossoms. He walked into the forest and walked deeper and deeper. Suddenly he saw many paths branching in front of him. Knowing which way to go, he could only walk on a road at will. After not walking very far, the trail branched off into several forked roads. After doing this several times, Qining suddenly discovered that the bamboo forest was quite large, and the roads were like The meridians of the human body are generally intricate. I had lost my way in the fog before. Now, although there was no thick fog around me, I was lost again in the forest.
Qining immediately regretted it. If he had known that this place was so complicated, he would have just left along the way to survive.
After walking through the forest for more than half an hour, Qining always felt that he had a familiar feeling when walking along the road, as if he had been walking in circles in the forest.
He suddenly thought that the ancients studied various formations, could it be that this bamboo forest was hiding a secret
After walking around for a while, Qining's head was dizzy due to the diverging roads, and he wondered if he was going to be trapped and die here
Seeing the densely tangled paths in the forest, I suddenly thought of spiders.
Spiders build webs, wait until their prey is caught in the web, and then feast on the prey.
Now that I am trapped in the forest, am I just like the prey trapped in the spider's web, waiting for the spider to come and eat it? If you can't get out of the bamboo forest, you will be discovered sooner or later, and you will be in big trouble.
He looked solemn, no longer paying attention to the path, and walked straight forward in the forest, hoping to see the dark trees and bright flowers like walking out of the thick fog. However, he walked like this for half an hour, and there was still no end to the bamboos. He was suddenly discouraged and felt Thinking that this bamboo forest is most likely set up with a formation, if you can't figure out the secrets, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out after walking for a lifetime.
But he knew nothing about the formation, and this Bamboo Forest Formation was obviously not an ordinary formation. It was undoubtedly a dream to discover its secrets in a short time.
While he was distressed, he suddenly heard a faint voice, which was obviously a woman's voice. Qining was overjoyed and immediately moved towards the direction of the sound. After only walking about ten steps, he could vaguely see something not far ahead. Two figures appeared, but they were two girls dressed up by the Miao family. Although their faces could not be clearly seen for a while, the two girls had quite graceful figures and crisp voices. They were undoubtedly girls.
The two girls each carried a small wooden bucket and walked through the bamboo forest one after another. They were talking to each other. Although Qining could hear the voices clearly at the moment, the two girls were talking in the Miao dialect, so he really couldn't understand them. What are they talking about.
Qi Ning had long heard that the Black Lotus Sect was founded by the Black Miao people, so of course most of the sect members were Black Miao people, but he never expected that even women from the Miao family would join the Black Lotus Sect.
He really didn't know for a moment that the two women were members of the Black Lotus sect or just their family members, but he was secretly happy when he saw the two women walking freely through the bamboo forest. He knew that as long as he followed them, it would be no problem to get out of the bamboo forest. .
He kept some distance to avoid being discovered by them, but he didn't dare to go too far, otherwise it would be no joke if he lost track of them.
This time, after only walking for a short while, I saw the dark willows and flowers in front of me, and I actually walked out. Outside the bamboo forest was a lake, with mist floating on the lake. The mist here was obviously purer. In the lake, It turned out to be several pavilions with carved beams and painted beams. They were exquisite in style and elegant in layout. They were located in the center of the lake. On the shore, there were bamboo bridges leading to the lake. The whole building was looming in the mist, and it was extremely beautiful.
The two Miao girls each carried a small wooden bucket. After walking out of the bamboo forest, they walked directly onto the wooden bridge and headed straight to the center of the lake.
Qi Ning secretly marveled, the pavilions in the lake were like scrolls, and the mist was floating, just like a fairyland. He never imagined that there was such a place on Qianwu Ridge.
What surprised him even more was that the pavilions in the lake were obviously in the Han architectural style, quite similar to the exquisite buildings in the south of the Yangtze River. The Black Lotus Sect was mainly composed of Miao people, so why would they build such a style of building here
In the western border of Bashu, it is difficult to see such exquisite Han architecture, even ordinary Han houses. Qining never expected to see such an elegant and beautiful pavilion here.
When he was surprised, he only saw the figures of the two Miao girls shrouded in mist. He thought for a moment, held the cold blade and walked to the edge of the bamboo forest. He looked around alertly, but found no trace of anyone else. He gritted his teeth and said, With a charming figure, he quickly reached the edge of the wooden bridge. After a pause, he stepped onto the wooden bridge.
