Chapter 22 Ghost Crying Tiankeng
Lu Chen took Hong Chuan into the tavern and found that the tavern was doing well today, with several tables sitting with guests. Lao Ma was sitting behind the counter with a smile on his face, looking in a good mood.
Lu Chen walked over and greeted Lao Ma with a smile, then asked for a pot of wine, and sat on a table next to Hong Chuan.
The two of them were drinking and chatting, and they were very similar in their conversation, and they felt a little regretful of meeting too late. Soon after, they finished a pot of wine. Lu Chen stood up with a smile and said to Hong Chuan: "Sit for a moment, and I'll go over and get another pot."
Hong Chuan was about to refuse, but Lu Chen had already left with a smile, so Hong Chuan had to sit down again.
Lu Chen walked all the way to the counter, patted the table and smiled, "Go another pot of wine, boss."
Lao Ma sat behind the counter and laughed: "Customer, wait a moment, I will get this account for you after I finish writing it."
Lu Chen nodded and said, "Okay." As he said that, he leaned against the counter and waited. He first glanced at the guests drinking in the tavern, and then casually looked at the counter. He saw Lao Ma lowering his head, holding up a pen and writing words on a piece of paper. The number of words was not too large, just one line.
Lu Chen's expression remained unchanged, and he turned his head as if he hadn't seen anything. Then he saw Hong Chuan looking here, and said with a smile: "Wait a minute, it'll be fine soon."
While he was talking, Lao Ma had already stood up, smiled and picked up a pot of wine from the side, handed it to Lu Chen, and said, "Customer, your wine."
"Okay." Lu Chen took the wine pot, walked back to Hongchuan with a smile.

The day passed in a blink of an eye. At noon the next day, Lu Chen took Hong Chuan from the thatched hut and went to the tea mountain.
The mountain wind blew down from the mountain, and I saw that the eyes were full of greenery, and there was a fragrance in the wind, which made me feel relaxed. It was the unique breath of spiritual tea. The two of them walked on the mountain road one after another. Looking at the spiritual tea trees that were almost everywhere on both sides of the road, Hong Chuan couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that the spiritual energy here was not bad, and it could raise so many spiritual teas."
Lu Chen walked in front and turned around and smiled when he heard this, "These are just the most ordinary spiritual teas. In your Kunlun Sect, I guess they don't like these."
Hong Chuan laughed and said, "Because my sect has been established for a long time, there are indeed many good things. This tea is also famous. I will bring some to Brother Lu in the future."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "That's not bad."
The two of them walked while talking. Hong Chuan followed Lu Chen and found that Lu Chen seemed to walk casually, but when he reached some fork intersections, he almost never hesitated. He would choose one of the paths immediately. It seemed that he was indeed very familiar with this mountain road.
After walking like this for more than an hour, the two of them climbed to the top of Chashan Mountain.
Hong Chuan looked around and found that he was at the east foot of the Chashan Mountain at this moment. He sighed for a moment and said to Lu Chen with a smile: "Fortunately, Brother Lu leads the way, otherwise I will be in trouble."
Lu Chen waved his hand and said, "Last time it was late at night and it was dark, and you just couldn't see the path clearly. If it was during the day, you might not be lost. Well, the ghost crying cave is there, let's go."
The two continued along the mountain path to the eastern foot of the mountain. When they arrived at the back mountain boundary, there were no many maze-like mountain switch roads in the front mountain. Most of the time, there was only one road, and sometimes they could not find the path, and they needed to climb a section to pass.
However, both of them are agile people, and this mountain road cannot defeat them. So after walking along the way, about half an hour later, Lu Chen suddenly paused, then pointed to a place in front and said to Hongchuan: "It's there."
Hong Chuan was excited and quickly walked forward a few steps. He saw a large hole in the flat ground suddenly appeared between the mountains ahead. After walking a little further, he came to the entrance of the cave covered with rocks and plants. He looked down and saw that it was extremely deep and huge. At a rough look, it was at least a hundred feet high. The cliff walls around were extremely steep. Some small pine vine trees grew tenaciously between the cracks of the rocks, adding a little vitality to the cave in the sky pit.
On the rock wall farther opposite, a stream of water flowed out from somewhere on the rock wall and suddenly fell, forming a slender waterfall in the air. It flowed down and fell into the bottom of the Tiankeng stone cave. The mountain wind blew, as if it was still carrying a little wet breath there.
The entire Tiankeng stone cave looked quite powerful and awe-inspiring. I couldn't help but sigh at the mystery and wonder of the creation. Hong Chuan also looked extremely amazed. After watching for a while, he couldn't help but say to Lu Chen: "It's really rare that there is such a scenery here."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "When I first arrived here, I felt like I was like you." As he said that, he walked a few steps forward, came to the edge of the sinkhole, looked down, and said to Hongchuan: "Look at the rock wall over there, are there some nests embedded in the rock cracks? There are some flying swallow nests that always live here, but I don't know whether they are the kind of swallows you mentioned."
Hong Chuan nodded repeatedly and said, "It's so good, so good, I think the situation over there should be the same. Now I just wait for these swallows to fly out to find food and catch some, even if I complete what others have entrusted."
Lu Chen said: "These swallows probably came out at dusk. I think it's still early, so let's wait here for a while."
Hong Chuan agreed, then looked at Lu Chen with a sincere expression on his face and said, "Brother Lu, you have really helped me this time, and I am very grateful."
Lu Chen just smiled and waved his hand to signal him not to be polite.
The two sat on the mountain chatting, chatting about the world. Before they knew it, they watched the sun set westward, and the sky was a little late, as if dusk was coming. At the same time, they heard a strange noise coming from under the pit, and it seemed that a commotion was coming.
Hong Chuan's eyes lit up, stood up, then reached into his arms, but he took out a piece of cloth that looked very thin but full of eye holes from his close body. Lu Chen glanced at it and felt that the thing seemed a bit like a fisherman's net.
Hong Chuan turned to Lu Chen and smiled, "Fortunately, I had a little more conciseness and tied this treasure tightly to my close-fitting place so I didn't lose it. Otherwise, even if we found this place, we would be irresistible to catch so many flexible swallows."
"Oh?" Lu Chen was a little interested. It sounded like the strange net in Hong Chuan's hand was a little capable, so he stepped aside and watched carefully.
Hong Chuan didn't avoid him, and held the monster net in his hand to the edge of the rock wall of Tiankeng, looked down at the bottom, and waited silently.
There is another update later tonight! By the way, please vote for recommendation.
