Chapter 43
43 The white fox Blocks the way
The wonderful wind Mountain looked verdant from a distance, but when they got closer, they could hear The Sound of the Mountain wind passing through the valley from the South to the North. The sound was like the whimpering of a flute, with a bit of melody, which was the origin of the mountain’s name.
It was already close to autumn, and the mountains were a little cold.
The sound of footsteps on fallen leaves gradually approached, and the three of them arrived at the foot of the mountain.
Li Chu walked quietly without a word.
Chen Zian remained silent, and his movements were a little stiff. Although he was the one who led the way to find his wife, he was the last one.
Therefore, only Wang longqi’s voice could be heard from time to time.
“Back then, there was an old woman’s temple on the wonderful wind Mountain. It was said that it was very effective in praying for children, and people often came here to offer incense. But later on, this temple of the Empress was abandoned. Do you know why?”
“Because later, Yu Qi ‘an, Daoist priest Yu, came to deyun temple and said that it would be more effective to ask for a child from him! Hahaha!”
“Why aren’t you guys laughing, Yingluo?”
Wang longqi slowly stopped talking. He felt the atmosphere was a little strange.
It was normal that Li Chu did not like to chat, but Chen Zian was not like this in the past. No matter what she said, he would support her-even if it was because she often treated him to meals.
He probably couldn’t find a wife and wasn’t in the mood to joke.
Li Chu had already used his heart eye technique to scan the entire mountain. The aura of this vast mountain was mixed with all kinds of demonic Qi, Yin Qi, and human qi. However, it was impossible to find out where Chen Zian’s wife was.
His heart’s eye technique could only observe Qi, and not truly achieve a wide range of vision like the spiritual sense of high-level cultivators.
He could only follow Chen Zian up the mountain to check.
The three of them quickly arrived at the mountainside.
This was the narrowest part of the mountain road. It was a narrow path with cliffs on both sides, so they could only go straight ahead. As they passed by, the mountain wind became much more intense.
Li Chu’s nose twitched. The wind didn’t smell right.
There was demonic Qi.
He didn’t have time to look around carefully when he heard a rumbling sound. He looked up and saw a Round Rock rolling down the cliff!
If they were hit by this, the three of them would be turned into meat paste!
“Back off!” Wang longqi shouted and took a few steps back.
At this time, Chen Zian’s movements were much more agile, and he also retreated.
Li Chu, on the other hand, was not in a hurry to Dodge. He stood on the spot fearlessly and cast his gaze at the top of the mountain.
At the place where the huge rock rolled down.
A white shadow flashed past.
He furrowed his brows in surprise.
Boom–
With a loud bang, the huge rock fell to the ground, and half of the road trembled. The sound reverberated with the wind into the distance.
Although it looked scary when it rolled over their heads, the place where the rock fell was actually twenty feet away from them, so there was no danger.
Li Chu looked back at the huge rock in front of him and heard Wang longqi call out, ” “Oh no, the road ahead is blocked.”
this bi an! Chen Zian’s expression changed.
there’s only one way up the mountain. If we take a detour, we might have to walk for another four hours! Wang longqi said anxiously.
Another four hours would mean that the sky would turn dark, and it would be troublesome to find her again.
“Move,” Li Chu said indifferently.
Eh? Wang longqi was startled and quickly retreated behind Li Chu. He was all too familiar with this tone.
As expected, Li Chu unsheathed his sword and waved it in the air.
Bang!
The huge rock that blocked the way exploded, turning into pieces of gravel that fell from the sky.
It also revealed the shocked faces of Wang longqi and Chen Zian, who had been hiding behind the stone.
Wang longqi’s mouth was wide open, and even Chen Zian, who had dull facial features, gave an exaggerated expression.
They couldn’t figure out how a person could blow up such a huge rock with just a slash of an iron sword.
However, Wang longqi was used to Li Chu’s surprise. After all, he had seen more shocking scenes. He quickly regained his composure and patted Chen Zian’s shoulder.
“See, I told you Li Chu is strong.” When he said this, his face was filled with pride.
Chen Zian nodded in a daze and said, ” “Little Daoist priest li is really a God.”
Li Chu calmly sheathed his sword and shook his head, ” I’ve only just started on my path of cultivation.
With that, he firmly walked forward, his cloth shoes stepping on the gravel-covered mountain road, his footsteps extremely humble.
The two people behind him followed suit.
According to Chen Zian’s description, the small temple where he and his wife took shelter from the wind was on the mountainside, out of the forest, in an open space not far away.
However, the three of them walked for a long time in the forest on the mountainside and still did not see him.
“What’s going on?” Wang longqi panted heavily. where’s the temple you mentioned? ”
Chen Zian’s expression was not good. He looked around the terrain and said, ” “It’s clearly in front, but Yingluo”
“Let’s keep looking.”
Li Chu said after looking around.
After walking for about an hour, the three of them still hadn’t left the forest.
“What’s going on? Since when did the wonderful wind Mountain have such a large forest?” Wang longqi was so tired that he sat on the ground.
Chen Zian’s expression changed drastically, and there was a faint fear in his eyes, as if he was afraid of something.
“This is the third time we’ve been back here,” Li Chu said as he looked around.
“What?” Wang longqi stood up abruptly,”is it a ghostly labyrinth?”
“It’s almost the same trick, but it should be done by a demon.” Li Chu nodded.
He had just noticed that there was a faint demonic aura surrounding this place.
The taste was familiar.
This kind of smokescreen was different from an illusion. It changed the surrounding terrain to cover the real path, so no matter how strong his spiritual power was, it was hard to avoid falling into it.
He had never encountered such a situation before, but since he knew the situation, there would always be a way.
It was as if he had suddenly encountered a question he had never seen before on an examination field. At this time, he couldn’t panic, he had to calm down and think.
Unfamiliar questions often hid familiar principles.
Hence, Li Chu sat down quietly.
“What’s wrong?” asked Wang longqi.
“I’m thinking of a way,” Li Chu replied indifferently.
Wang longqi turned around and said to Chen Zian, ” “It seems that your wife has really been captured by a demon. It’s clearly that demon who used a demonic technique to block the way, not daring to let us find her.”
Chen Zian ignored him and looked at Li Chu.
Li Chu stood up before Wang longqi could finish his sentence.
“You’ve thought of a way?” Wang longqi asked in surprise.
He knew that Li Chu had always been fast, but wasn’t this a little too fast?
“Yes.” Li Chu nodded.
He thought of it.
This kind of camouflage used the terrain to confuse people, such as the surrounding trees, rocks, and so on.
Then …
As long as there were no such things around, the camouflage would naturally be useless.
He pulled out his sword again.
Wang longqi felt that the atmosphere was not right, so he quickly pulled Chen Zian back a few steps.
Immediately after, a roar sounded in the mountains.
One sword.
Boom–
The white light of the sword light turned into a huge wave that swept across the forest.
Wherever it passed, trees fell and rocks shattered.
The forest was not big to begin with, and after being swept by the surging sword Qi, only a few hundred bare wooden stakes were left.
“Tsk …” Wang longqi shook his head in disbelief.”Can this Yingluo not be so exaggerated?”
Chen Zian’s dull eyes also widened. His eyeballs rolled around and he suddenly shouted, ” “Over there!”
The trees that blocked his vision disappeared, and the distant scene appeared.
He could see that there was indeed a small pitch-black Temple in the open space not far away. It looked very abrupt and was indeed a little strange.
The three of them quickened their pace and hurried over.
At this moment, a wild beast’s roar suddenly sounded from the side, and a white shadow flashed!
It pounced towards Chen Zian!
This time, Li Chu did not draw his sword. He pulled Chen Zian, who was beside him, behind him.
Pfft.
Seeing Li Chu blocking Chen Zian, The White Shadow immediately changed its direction. With a flick of its tail, it landed in front of Chen Zian and revealed its figure.
It turned out to be a slender white fox with a fluffy tail.
It lay on all four limbs and looked at Li Chu while whimpering.
When it looked at Chen Zian again, it immediately bared its teeth and revealed its ferocity!
“Is this the demon that took your wife?” Wang longqi asked.
“I don’t know.” Chen Zian shook his head in a panic. I only know that my wife went missing in that temple.
“Why are you blocking our way?” Li Chu asked.
He was familiar with the white fox.
Every morning, it would be the first one to come to deyun temple, more pious than anyone else. It was the little fox that was about to transform!
He believed that the white fox would not do anything outrageous.
The white fox blocked the entrance of the temple with a ferocious expression. It was obvious that it did not want them to enter.
Wang longqi said,”this Fox is obviously a demon!” It doesn’t dare to let us in.”
Wu-” the white fox bared its teeth at him.
“Move,” Li Chu said softly.
“Wuwuwu! Wuwuwu!”
The white fox cried out anxiously, as if it wanted to say something, but it had not yet transformed and had not learned how to speak the human language.
Seeing that it could not stop them, it suddenly turned around and ran to the entrance of the Black Temple, lifting its hind legs.
Hiss-
It was a white water column.
Coincidentally, a gust of wind blew past, and an indescribable smell of urine came with the wind.
Wang longqi quickly covered his nose and mouth and exclaimed, ” “This Fox Qianqian is really wicked! This is a f * cking seal!”
The white fox peed into the temple, and indeed, it was as if a seal had been placed on it, making it difficult for anyone to get close!
