You Are Not the Only Rich Chapter 190

The next day, as soon as a glimmer of light appeared in the east, the military camp was already bustling with activity. The hundreds of officers and soldiers who stayed behind packed the explosives and wax pills separately. After Shen Qianfeng checked it and confirmed that there was nothing wrong, he led everyone into the mountain together.
After nearly a month of excavation, the situation in the mountain is very different from before. Countless waterways crisscross, diverting underground hot springs from all directions to the entrance of the underground palace. Along the way, there are puddles of water everywhere, and after the heavy snow melted last night, the road is even more muddy. Shen Qianfeng said to Ye Jin, "I carry you?"
"No." Ye Guzhu refused, "I want to go by myself." Then as soon as he finished speaking, he stepped into a mud pit.
Doctors are more or less mysophobic, let alone a miracle doctor, so Ye Jin froze for a moment.
Shen Qianfeng: ...
Ye Jin took a deep breath in her heart, tried her best to resist the urge to hit someone, continued walking with a dark face, and charged the account to Zhou Jue.
So the villains are really the ones who are often targeted. They are just like human targets, and they will be moved wherever they are unhappy.
After arriving at the entrance of the underground palace, the soldiers were busy stacking explosives. Ye Jin picked up a wax ball and weighed it, then said, "It's been more than a year since I came out."
"Yes." Shen Qianfeng helped him tighten his cloak, "Our mission will be over after the water channel is blasted."
"I don't know if things will go smoothly on Asher's end." Ye Jin was a little worried.
"Of course it will." Shen Qianfeng said, "We have been preparing for so long just for this final battle. With so many people combined, it would be too embarrassing if we can't defeat Zhou Jue."
Ye Jin smiled and put the wax ball back into the bamboo basket.
"Alliance Leader Shen." The leader of the officers and soldiers stepped forward and said, "The explosives and fuses have been placed."
Shen Qianfeng nodded, "Let everyone evacuate!"
"Yes!" The leader of the officers and soldiers turned around and left, ordering everyone to retreat to a safe distance. Shen Qianfeng also jumped off the high hill with Ye Jin and ordered, "Light the fire!"
More than a dozen fuses were ignited at the same time, and the wax seal melted rapidly along the way. The fire wires soaked in grease and sulfur flashed sparks, like golden snakes, flying across the black rocks in an instant, leaving only trails of green smoke.
A huge explosion sounded in my ears, and during the roar, even the earth seemed to be shaking slightly. The ice and snow that had been silent for thousands of years rolled and fell on the cliff, and countless boulders and soil rushed to the sky, and then fell again. Although everyone was already far away, rocks still fell at their feet.
"Are you okay?" Shen Qianfeng put his hand down from Ye Jin's ear.
Ye Jin shook his head, stood on tiptoe and looked into the distance.
After the explosion, steaming spring water gushes out from the ground, mixed with a large amount of red mud and ice and snow, and rushes into the underground palace. The lake water that was originally frozen into ice melted instantly, flowing out along the gap created by the explosion, roaring in the empty hall, and rolling away into the distance. Dozens of soldiers worked together to push the bamboo basket into the river. Thousands of wax pellets followed the rushing tide towards the main hall of the underground palace, and disappeared from everyone's sight in a moment.
Hot springs keep popping up from the ground, as if they will never end. The surrounding ice and snow were also affected, and soon melted away, exposing black soil that had never seen the light of day. For a while, even the temperature increased a lot.
Ye Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and there was finally a smile in his eyes.
Shen Qianfeng took his shoulder and patted him gently.
The rising sun fills the entire snowfield and fills the ground with tiny halos of light.
In the camp on the other side, the Chu army had already been on high alert and ready for battle.
Candlelight flickers in the deep underground palace, reflecting the nine-clawed golden dragons on the surrounding walls. Dozens of ancestral tablets are neatly placed on the left side. On the right side, sitting on the throne, is a thirty-year-old man in yellow robes. , seemed to be thinking about something, with a cold expression.
"Your Majesty." An attendant outside the palace said, "General Long is here."
"Announce." The man stood up and slowly walked down from the throne.
"Your Majesty." A man in armor walked in hurriedly, "The spies just reported that the Chu army has formed a battle formation and it seems that they are about to start a battle."
One of these two people is naturally Zhou Jue, and the other is his newly appointed general Long Linhong - he was originally a pioneer officer of the Chu army. Later, he was dismissed by Shen Qianfan because he ignored military discipline and allowed his subordinates to disturb the people. He was dismissed from his post and was very angry. He happened to be favored by Liu Yishui, who was the prime minister at the time, and introduced him to Zhou Jue.
"Start a war?" Zhou Jue sneered, "They can't even find the entrance. Are the Chu army planning to fight themselves?"
"It is indeed a bit strange." Long Linhong said, "But according to Shen Qianfan's temperament, he should not do such useless work."
"So what?" Zhou Jue said, "There are numerous traps set up at the entrances everywhere. Even if they can find it, they can't get in." This is the truth. When Baidi built the underground palace, he had already set up many traps. Coupled with the modifications made by the Zhou family for generations, the underground palace is definitely easy to defend but difficult to attack. The entrances are winding and even thunder bombs may not be useful.
"So what should we do now?" Long Linhong asked cautiously.
"Keep the troops in place." Zhou Jue said, "Let the Chu army waste time and see what tricks they can come up with in the end."
Long Linhong wanted to say something, but seeing that Zhou Jue was obviously impatient, she could only sigh inwardly, take her leave, and leave the hall.
Silence returned to the surroundings, Zhou Jue sat on the throne again, caressing the broken dragon head inch by inch, black flames burning in his eyes.
Since he was born, he has been staying in this dark place. Even when he left the underground palace, all he could see was the vast snowfield and black boulders. It was hard to see any other colors. It was not until he grew up and walked out of the snowfield that he realized what the real world should be like besides black and white.
The prosperity of the royal capital, the tranquility of the south of the Yangtze River, the generosity of the northwest, the vastness of the Central Plains, there are too many good things in this world. Everything should have been his, but unfortunately now the country has changed.
He once saw Chu Yuan on a tour, with the strict imperial guards leading the way, followed by a dazzling guard of honor. The people on the street bowed their heads and knelt, shouting "Long live the emperor" three times, the sound was deafening, but he could only stand far away, not even qualified to get close.
There was too much jealousy and unwillingness in his heart. He didn't want to live in the underground palace like his father and spend his life guarding the mottled and peeling Nine Dragons totem on the wall. He also didn't want to go to Chu State to be a small trader incognito as the teacher said. Jiangshan originally belonged to the Zhou family, so he naturally wanted to take it back.
After nearly twenty years of careful planning, he trained an army, planted countless spies in the court and the underworld, and even won over the Rakshasa Kingdom. The plan was about to be realized bit by bit, but who would have thought that it would be completely disrupted because of Huang Yuan.
If he hadn't betrayed me, I wouldn't have provoked the Shadow Chasing Palace, the Sun Moon Villa, or the Seven Absolute Kingdoms. Those hidden lines that I had painstakingly laid wouldn't have been destroyed one by one! Thinking of the silent playmate since childhood, Zhou Jue was filled with hatred and only regretted why he hadn't killed him earlier.
The fact that the Chu army could accurately find the location of the underground palace was beyond his expectation. Although he remained as cold and ruthless as before in front of everyone, it was undeniable that he was panicking. With tens of thousands of troops pressing outside the gate, he was definitely no match for them if he fought head-on. He could only wait and endure until the Chu army left and ran out of food and grass. But even he knew how ridiculous this expectation was.
On the armrest of the dragon chair, an eye made of rubies has been touched many times, and its luster is no longer as good as before. Zhou Jue pressed his right hand gently on it, trembling slightly.
However, before he could think it through, he felt the ground beneath his feet began to tremble slightly, and mud fell through the cracks in the rocks, stirring up fine dust on the ground.
"Your Majesty!" A servant came crawling in, "Oh no, the underground palace, the underground palace is leaking!"
"What?!" Zhou Jue was horrified and instantly jumped down from the throne, "Where is the leak?!"
"It's leaking everywhere!" The servant spoke incoherently and looked pale, obviously completely panicked.
Water began to leak underground, and everyone knew what this meant. Zhou Jue brushed him aside and hurried out of the hall. He saw that there was already a commotion outside, and countless soldiers were running towards him in panic. When they saw him, they stopped and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, we can't stay in the underground palace any longer!"
"Shut up!" Zhou Jue looked vicious and picked up someone's collar, "Where's the leak? Take me there!"
"Ahead, just ahead." Although the soldier desperately didn't want to turn back, he didn't dare to disobey Zhou Jue, so he took him and ran across. After turning three or four corners, the water on the ground was already up to the ankles. Long Linhong was leading people from the front. When he saw him, he said urgently, "Your Majesty, please go to the other side quickly. The front is going to flood!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the ground shook more violently. Zhou Jue walked a few steps forward and when he turned the next corner, he saw the wall in front of him collapse with a loud bang. The red water roared out like a beast. Long Linhong was shocked and didn't care about anything else. He turned around and ran back. Zhou Jue jumped up and clung to the high wall like a gecko. Only the soldier who led the way didn't have time to dodge and was knocked down by the rushing water in an instant. He didn't even have time to call for help. He disappeared in the water in the blink of an eye.
The noise in front became louder and louder. Without even thinking about it, Zhou Jue knew what the army in the underground palace had become now.
After a while, the water flowing in from the gap became a little steadier. Dozens of red wax balls were floating on the water. Zhou Jue flew down and picked one up. He stepped over the wall in a few steps and returned to the main hall - the highest place in the entire underground palace.
Just as he expected, everyone in the underground palace panicked after the water poured in. There was no news from Zhou Jue, and Long Linhong only focused on escaping for his own life. The rebels without a command were like a piece of loose sand, and they only knew their instinct to run to higher ground. The first few people who rushed to the exit of the underground palace accidentally touched the mechanism and were instantly shot into hedgehogs. When the people behind saw this, they naturally did not dare to go forward. They wanted to go back, but there was a stream of water coming towards them. For a moment, there was chaos, each other was trampled and cried, and they were filled with despair.
Another group of people temporarily hid in the main hall, gathering around the dragon throne which was usually out of reach, looking at the red water rolling outside with fear in their eyes, not knowing how long they could live.
Zhou Jue entered the main hall and looked at the soldiers around the dragon chair. He didn't have much expression on his face and just walked up the steps step by step. Everyone retreated to both sides, lowering their heads anxiously, not even daring to meet his eyes.
Zhou Jue's clothes were covered in mud and he looked a little disheveled, but his eyes were still as cold as ever.
After the red wax ball in his hand was pinched open, a small piece of paper was revealed. He took a quick glance at it after unfolding it, and his expression instantly became even more violent. The sentence on it was enough to make him angry, not to mention that there was a strange round-headed thing drawn on the back with a big grin. No matter how you looked at it, it was full of mockery! Mocked him for his deliberate planning, mocked him for failing at the last hurdle, mocked him for overestimating his own abilities.
But it’s not true. The note was written by Oliver. After I finished writing it, I saw that there was still some space at the back, so I drew a Doraemon. As for whether the look is mocking or lacking, that’s a matter of opinion. .
The soldiers surrounding him felt the suddenly intensified cold aura on his body, and they didn't dare to speak anymore. The surroundings were quiet, and you could almost hear his breathing. Just when everyone was anxious and unsure of what to do, a burst of noise suddenly came from outside the palace.
More than a hundred soldiers who had survived by chance rushed in with swords in hand. The leader was the great general Long Linhong. However, there was no more humility and respect in his eyes. Instead, there was full of viciousness. "Come here, capture Zhou Jue for me!"
"Yes!" The soldiers had obviously seen the note in the wax ball, and rushed forward with their knives raised. The group of people gathered around Zhou Jue were swept down by an internal force before they could figure out what was going on, and they screamed and rolled down the stairs.
Zhou Jue's martial arts is not weak, so it will be easy to deal with these soldiers, but if he adds Long Linhong, it will be somewhat difficult - after all, he was once a leader of the Chu army, and he also learned some Kung Fu from the Shen family. , coupled with the instinct of survival, Long Linhong naturally tried his best to capture Zhou Jue. As of now, this is his only way to survive.
During the fight, Zhou Jue was stabbed in the left arm, and another group of soldiers who had survived rushed into the hall and also attacked with knives. Zhou Jue gritted his teeth and jumped up, sweeping away everyone with a sword, and then stepped on the dragon throne. A huge stone door opened with a bang, and before the others could see clearly, Zhou Jue had already jumped in.
The stone door closed instantly behind him, blocking out the people who were chasing after him.
"Smash it!" Long Linhong ordered. Hundreds of soldiers joined the battle and finally broke the stone wall, but inside was black iron, which was obviously beyond human power.
Long Linhong spat hard on the ground, his pupils turned dark red.
Compared to the ghosts and wolves howling in the underground palace, the Chu army outside was much more relaxed. At first, Oliver was wondering if a large number of rebels would emerge from the underground, but after waiting for a long time and seeing no movement, he could not help but yawn. The warm sunlight sprinkled on his body, making him a little sleepy.
Seeing his mother yawning, the fur ball was also infected, and he lay lazily on the snow wolf, not wanting to move.
The vanguard officer came back and reported that the snow ahead had begun to show signs of melting and the ground temperature had also risen. It was obvious that the hot springs had backflowed in. And when listening carefully, there seemed to be some crying sounds, but they were not obvious and it was impossible to tell whether they were human voices or auditory hallucinations.
"How about taking you back to sleep first?" Asher asked Oliver.
"No!" Shen Xiaoshou refused.
"But we'll probably have to wait for a while." Asher said, "There's nothing to do standing here."
"That's going to have to wait." Oliver rubbed his nose, very stubborn! This is the last battle, there is no reason to stay in the camp and sleep! When I go back to Sun Moon Villa and see Baodou in the future, I won't even be able to blow it!
Asher was funny, but he didn't force him anymore.
"General!" Another small vanguard galloped from the front and shouted, "We have found the entrance to the underground palace!"
As soon as he said this, everyone present was excited. Shen Qianfan asked, "Where is it?"
"Just under a boulder." The vanguard dismounted and threw a few wet soldiers on the ground. "They also captured a few rebels. According to them, most of the underground palace was flooded. Many people wanted to escape. When they came out, they were all hit by the trap at the entrance, causing numerous casualties. "
Mu Hanye shook his head when he heard this. It would be difficult to find someone who would not leave a way out for him and his subordinates in the next three hundred years.
"Indeed." Huang Taixian whispered, "When I entered and exited the underground palace before, I had someone to guide me, otherwise I would not be able to pass at all."
Upon hearing this, Mu Hanye tightened his arms and hugged him tighter.
"General, spare my life." The rebels were still in shock and had not yet completely calmed down. Before joining Zhou Jue, most of them were just farmers and villagers, and had never had any combat experience. They were stepping on the bloody bodies of their companions and were worried about whether new traps would be triggered. They were so scared that they couldn't even stand up.
"Where is Zhou Jue?" Shen Qianfan asked.
"We don't know." The rebels said, "When the flood came, everyone only focused on escaping for their own lives, and the emperor disappeared."
Oliver curled his lips when he heard this, what about the emperor?
"How many people are there downstairs?" Mu Hanye asked.
"I don't know." The rebel cried sadly, "I really don't know. We usually live separately."
Seeing nothing useful, Shen Qianfan ordered the rebels to be taken down first, and sent an army led by Asher to go to the entrance to see what was going on.
"Such a strong smell." As soon as he approached the entrance to the underground palace, Oliver wrinkled his nose and felt a little choked.
"There is sulfur in the hot springs, and it should be mixed with other things, which is why it smells so bad." Asher said, "But this is good, the people underground will be even more intolerable."
"Do you want to go down and take a look?" Oliver asked.
"No," Asher said, "It's so dark, who knows what else there is."
Oliver:...
Then we just stand here?
"Come here!" Asher said.
"Palace Master Qin." The deputy general rode forward.
"Find a few bombs and throw them down." Asher said, "Blast the entrance open and see."
"Yes!" The deputy general nodded and sent several soldiers to the entrance to place explosives. After a series of earthquakes, the stone wall at the entrance was blown to pieces and the pungent smell in the air became stronger.
"Chirp!" The fur ball flapped its wings and flew farther away, obviously unable to bear it.
Properly pampered.
The deputy general led a small army and jumped in to see what was going on. After a while, he dragged someone out and said, "Palace Master Qin, we found someone on the steps below that was not flooded. He was knocked unconscious!"
"Bring it to Qianfan," Asher said.
"Yes!" The deputy general pulled the man up and was stunned for a moment after seeing his appearance. "Why is it him?"
"Do you know him?" Asher asked.
"He was a former leader of the Imperial Guards, named Long Linhong." The deputy general said, "He was later dismissed by General Shen and was thought to have returned to his hometown. I didn't expect him to be here."
Oliver shook his head when he heard this. Zhou Jue is really not picky... As long as Chu State doesn't want it, he has the ability to snare him.
Gradually, the Chu army discovered the remaining entrances to the underground palace, and more than a hundred rebels escaped. They all said that there was already a vast ocean below and they didn't know where Zhou Jue had gone.
The Chu army was naturally excited about the victory without fighting, but they felt that the war was not over until Zhou Jue was found. Unfortunately, the walls of the underground palace were all made of black boulders, and it was difficult for the accumulated water to seep into the ground quickly, so the Chu army could not get in for a while. Shen Qianfan had no choice but to order the army to take turns to dig in with explosives and shovels to speed up the drainage and make it easier to go in and clean up the mess.
"Is this the end?" Sitting in the tent, Oliver still felt it was a little unreal.
"Otherwise?" Asher sat next to him.
"Originally, I thought that the last battle would end with a 'whoosh'," Oliver said, "but I never expected that there wouldn't even be a 'whoosh'!"
Asher was amused by him, "Zhou Jue doesn't have the ability to give you a 'whoop', I guess he would have drowned in the underground palace by now. Everyone was troubled by him before because he made trouble one after another. Conspiracy since ancient times. There are two kinds of tricks, one is to release a tiger to eat you to death, and the other is like Zhou Jue, releasing a mouse today and a bedbug tomorrow. Although it doesn't seem to be scary, it is inevitable when there are too many. It's so annoying that he always waits for an opportunity to bite you, but once all the rats and bugs are wiped out, he will naturally stop. "
"Then won't we be able to leave soon?" Oliver said.
"Not yet." Asher said, "Stay and do Brother Mu a favor."
Oliver thought for a while and said, "Water dragon vein?"
Asher nodded, "The map is buried in Jiufeng Mountain, not far from here. Brother Mu has already contacted me and said he would bring people to look for it tomorrow."
"That's fine." Oliver said, "It would be a great thing if we could turn the northwest desert into an oasis paradise."
Asher nodded, hugged him and squeezed you.
"But is it really okay with the Emperor?" Oliver asked again, "Hasn't he always been worried about it before?"
"In Chu Yuan's letter to Brother Mu, in addition to promising to give Xuan Hai Jade to him, there was also a condition." Asher said.
"What is it?" Oliver asked.
"If the water dragon vein can be found, people will naturally spread the word all over the world. It is because Chu Yuan generously gave the Xuanhai Jade to the Qijue Kingdom that the desert can be turned into fertile soil." Asher said, "And Brother Mu will make a strong oath, None of our descendants will invade even an inch of Chu's territory."
"It's reasonable." Oliver wasn't too surprised by this. She patted his chest and said, "As you said, Chu Yuan is the emperor, so he can't be as free and easy as us. He always has to do more when things happen. "For the sake of the country and the country."
"In addition to this, there is another condition, which will also be announced to the world." Asher said.
"Anything else?" Oliver frowned.
"Once the Qi Jue Nation breaks the agreement, Zhui Ying Palace will have to join forces with the Sun Moon Villa and the Chu Army to fight the enemy together." Asher said.
Knew it! Oliver sighed when he heard this, "Pull us in again."
"Never mind him." Asher held the person in his arms, but it was rare that he didn't care, "It's not like he hasn't been plotted before."
"Yes, just consider it as a favor to Brother Ye." Oliver pulled his ear, "Besides, we are people from the martial arts world, we should be more generous and not bother with the emperor."
Asher laughed and leaned over for a k!ss.
"Brother Qin." While the two were talking, Mu Hanye brought Huang Daxian and walked in after opening the curtain.
Shen Xiaoshou quickly jumped off his man's lap.
Huang Daxian silently pinched Mu Hanye - just tell him to wait for a while after knocking on the door!
King Qi Jue said calmly, "Do you need us to go out first?"
Asher nodded, "Need it."
Oliver:...
Mu Hanye completely ignored this sentence, pulled up a chair and sat down, saying, "There is good news and there is bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
Oliver said, "Good news!"
Asher swallowed the word "bad" that just came to his lips and said calmly, "Good news."
Mu Hanye said, "I once made a promise to Ah Huang, and now it seems that I have a chance to fulfill it."
Wong Tai Sin felt a tightness in his chest.
Shen Xiaoshou looked confused and stunned. How could this be considered good news? Besides, it didn't seem to have much to do with us!
"Where's the bad news?" Asher asked.
"Actually, it's the same thing as the good news. The Long Linhong you captured earlier just woke up." Mu Hanye said, "He said Zhou Jue is not dead, but escaped through the secret passage."
"What?" Oliver was surprised when he heard that, and Asher also frowned slightly.
"There is a secret passage in the underground palace." Mu Hanye said, "According to him, when the flood just rushed into the underground palace, Zhou Jue abandoned his subordinates and escaped alone through the secret passage, and no one knows where the secret passage leads to."
Oliver and Asher looked at each other and felt a little headache.
There really is a second crop...
Shen Qianfan was naturally surprised when he heard the news. He immediately sent more manpower and ordered the army to dig inside day and night with explosives and shovels, clearing the way and digging waterways. After more than ten days, they finally entered the hall that Long Linhong mentioned.
After returning to this place after a year or two, Wong Tai Sin looked around and felt as if he was in another world.
However, before he could remain in a daze for long, a large towel was covered on his face, and he was immediately frightened.
"Hurry up and cover it up." Mu Hanye said, "There's a stench in here."
No one knew what he had put on the towel, but it had an overpowering fragrance. Wong Tai Sin began to feel dizzy soon after smelling it. But he thought that if he took it off, he would probably keep talking about it for a long time, or even for half a year, so he had to hold it in.
"Ah Huang actually lived here before." Mu Hanye's eyes were full of sympathy.
Huang Taixian's lips moved, thinking about whether to explain.
"No, this is Zhou Jue's place. I think Ah Huang's place is even worse." Mu Hanye said with emotion, "It's really pitiful."
Wong Tai Sin resisted the urge to take a picture of him and went up the stairs alone to find Shen Qianfan.
"Zhou Jue escaped from here." Long Linhong pointed at the black iron wall behind the dragon throne. "He didn't know what mechanism he triggered, but a crack appeared on the wall instantly."
"It's the Extreme Northern Black Iron." Liancheng Guyue knocked it with her hand, "It's probably impossible to explode it. We have to try our best to find the mechanism."
"Does Ah Huang know where the agency is?" Mu Hanye asked.
Huang Yuan shook his head and squatted down to look at the dragon throne carefully.
"These gems seem to be able to be pressed down." Shen Qianfan said.
"Yes." Huang Taixian said, "There is a formation inside. If you press the wrong button, the mechanism will be destroyed. I'm afraid that the Black Iron Gate will never open again."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qianfan had no choice but to take his hand back.
Although it has long been mottled, one can still vaguely make out that there are nine golden dragons in total. Their eighteen eyes are inlaid with gems of different colors and look a little loose.
Seeing that he was so engrossed in watching, Mu Hanye did not disturb him but just squatted beside him to keep him company. After an incense stick of time, Mu Hanye was just about to ask him to get up and rest for a while, but Huang Daxian suddenly stretched out his hand and slapped a gem heavily, scaring the people around him.
The next moment, the black iron door suddenly opened, and a cold wind blew in, and the smell in the hall immediately dispersed a lot.
Mu Hanye took a breath of air, "Ah Huang is really amazing."
"It looks very chaotic, but it's actually an aurora formation." Wong Tai Sin stood up. Perhaps because he had been squatting for too long, he felt a slight blackness in front of his eyes.
Mu Hanye quickly hugged the person into his arms and held him very tightly.
Wong Tai Sin: ...
Seeing that the affection in the eyes of the Seventh King was about to overflow, the rest of the people naturally could not stand still, so they took the initiative to retreat. Shen Qianfan ordered the army to light torches and search through the secret passage.
Although Mu Hanye wanted to hug him for a while longer, the smell in the hall was really bad, and secondly he wanted to kill Zhou Jue himself, so he took Huang Taixian in with him. The secret passage was very narrow at first, but then it became wider and wider. When it reached the end, it turned out to be an exit.
Looking at the endless snowy fields around him, Shen Qianfan had a headache. If he ran away from here, it would be difficult to find him again...
But no matter how difficult it is, they have to look for people. After returning to the camp, Shen Qianfan divided the army into twenty groups. Except for one group that stayed behind in the garrison, the rest went to the snowfield to look for people. The snow wolf pack was also dispersed into various armies, looking very majestic.
"I don't know how long it will take." When he was resting at night, Oliver dragged his cheeks and sighed.
"Tired?" Asher asked.
"Not really, I just feel a bit of a headache." Oliver said, "The snowfield is so big, where can I find it?"
Asher said, "I don't know."
Oliver:...
Young hero, you are very straightforward and don’t mince words at all.
"There's nothing I can do if I'm upset now." Asher said, "The only thing we can do is find a way to find him."
"Yeah." Oliver nodded and lay on the bed in a daze.
"Go to bed early." Asher patted him, "We have to get up early tomorrow to go to Jiufeng Mountain."
"Aren't you going to help find Zhou Jue?" Oliver asked.
"Going to Jiufeng Mountain doesn't necessarily mean looking for a map. You can also find Zhou Jue." Asher said, "And according to common sense, he is most likely to run into the mountains. Firstly, it is easier to hide, and secondly, it is easier to find food."
"That's right." Oliver stretched, "Okay, let's go into the mountains tomorrow."
Asher reached out and pinched his belly.
Shen Xiaoshou covered his hands and expressed his protest with his eyes!
"Let me touch it." Palace Master Qin got into bed.
"Not in the mood!" Oliver desperately pulled on the skirt of his clothes, trying to drive the man out of bed.
But obviously it won’t work!
Not only did he fail, but he also got his round belly button poked!
"It's boring!" Oliver huddled together.
Asher pressed on him, lowered his head and bit him hard.
He couldn't be pushed away, and he seemed to be reluctant to give in! Shen Xiaoshou had no choice but to compromise and let him lick her like a big dog.
Maoqiu stretched his neck to take a look, then decisively wrapped himself in a small quilt.
It was really noisy.
"Why didn't you push me?" Asher sucked hard on his ear.
Oliver was speechless, what kind of evil taste is this...
"Ling'er is cuter when he is struggling desperately." Asher pressed against him.
I knew you were a pervert! I will definitely not cooperate with this vulgar pursuit, okay? So Shen Xiaoshou cleared his throat, spread out his limbs and said, "Uncle, come on!" He was really bold, not resisting at all, and very cooperative!
Asher was stunned for a moment, then laughed until his stomach hurt.
Shen Xiaoshou curled his lips and kicked him with his feet.
"I was wrong just now." Asher hugged him and took a bite, "Ling'er is cute no matter when."
"Go to sleep quickly!" Oliver chased people away.
"No." Asher skillfully took off his clothes.
These hypocritical human beings... Shen Xiaoshou lay on the bed hugging the pillow and raised his little middle finger angrily.
You just said you wanted to go to bed early!
The bed creaked, and the furball was lying on the edge of the nest with the quilt on his head, his little black eyes full of worry.
I always feel like the bed is about to collapse...
I was worried that my parents would faint from the fall, so I couldn’t sleep the whole time so I could rush out and cry for help at any time.
Bird life couldn't be more tiring.
Very worried.
Fortunately, they still remembered to get up early the next day, so the two of them didn't toss around in bed for too long, and they stopped after a while. The fur ball can then lie back in its nest and continue its unfinished dream.
It's not easy.
****
As the name suggests, Jiufeng Mountain is composed of nine peaks, which are continuous and wide. In order to speed up the process, Asher divided the team into nine groups, each responsible for a mountain, and used flares to communicate with each other.
Even the plains were covered with snow, and the mountains were even colder. There were no roads, and the army moved forward very slowly while shoveling snow.
Wong Tai Sin frowned and seemed to be thinking about something. Mu Hanye waved his hand in front of him, "Ah Huang."
"Huh?" Wong Tai Sin came to his senses.
"What are you thinking about?" Mu Hanye asked, "Be careful when walking on the mountain, otherwise what will happen if you fall?"
"Nothing." Wong Tai Sin replied perfunctorily.
"It's nothing strange." Mu Hanye said, "Tell me honestly."
Knowing his inquiring nature, Wong Tai Sin could only say, "I'm thinking about the water dragon vein map. Judging from the situation, it's probably going to be difficult to find."
Mu Hanye was surprised, "I thought you were thinking about Zhou Jue."
"Zhou Jue may not be here, but the water dragon vein map is definitely here." Huang Daxian said, "To find a map in the vast snowy mountains, when you don't even know what it looks like, is harder than climbing to the sky."
"Don't worry." Mu Hanye said, "We will definitely find it."
"Why?" Seeing his determined look, Huang Taixian was a little surprised.
Mu Hanye said, "Because Ah Huang is here."
Wong Tai Sin: ...
I knew this guy couldn't say anything reliable.
"Ah Huang is a fox fairy, he will naturally protect my seven people." Mu Hanye vowed.
Huang Daxian really didn't want to talk to him, so he quickened his pace and walked forward, but it was obviously impossible to get rid of the sticky candy beside him. The Qi Jue Kingdom's shadow guards looked at their king's playful and smiling appearance from afar, and they felt very speechless.
What would happen if those old ministers with white beards in the court saw this?
"King Qijue." A group of soldiers gathered in front of them, seeming to have discovered something.
Huang Daxian and Mu Hanye looked at each other and quickened their pace as they walked over.
"Found a red stone pillar." The soldier said.
After the snow was cleared away, a stone pillar as thick as a calf was completely exposed. Although it looked ordinary in appearance, it was obviously not something that should appear in the snowy mountains. Even if there were stones here, there were only two types, black and gray. Not to mention that this red stone pillar was obviously artificially polished and had several scratches on it.
"Could it be some kind of entrance mechanism?" Mu Hanye asked.
"I don't know." Huang Taixian shook his head and reached out to hold the stone pillar to give it a try. Unexpectedly, he pulled it out completely with just a little force.
Mu Hanye said calmly, "Ah Huang broke it."
Wong Tai Sin: ...
"It doesn't look like it's broken." The adjutant looked at the stone pillar and said, "There are also polishing marks on the bottom. It should only be this long in total. It's just buried in the soil."
Mu Hanye took the stone pillar and looked at it, "It doesn't look like there is any mystery."
"It's freezing and snowy, why would you bury a pillar here?" Wong Tai Sin frowned.
The soldiers looked at each other, obviously not thinking clearly.
"Keep looking." Mu Hanye threw the stone pillar to the adjutant, "Put it away first."
"Yes." The adjutant took the order and ordered everyone to continue searching.
The closer we got to the top of the mountain, the thicker the snow became, and there were occasional strong winds. Although Wong Tai Sin was wearing quite a bit of clothes, he still felt cold, and even the tip of his nose was frozen red.
"How about I take you home first?" Mu Hanye said, "So you don't catch a cold again. There's no sun today."
"It's okay." Wong Tai Sin patted him, "Don't worry about me."
"How can I ignore you." Mu Hanye seized every opportunity to say love words, "I only have Ah Huang in my heart." I really can't be more in love.
He and his soldiers had already walked far ahead. Looking at his sparkling eyes, Wong Tai Sin quickly leaned over and k!ssed him, "Don't be silly."
King Qi Jue felt extremely comfortable instantly, and even felt that the surrounding scenery was simply pleasant!
Wong Tai Sin was amused. Just as he was about to continue walking up with him, he saw the adjutant standing on a high hill waving desperately. Apparently he had made a new discovery.
