Chapter 53 Set up a stall on the river bank to do business
They broke off the branches and built a small platform, and Zheng Qiu and the other three spent the night on it. It was not comfortable to sleep on the tree. Zheng Qiu tossed and turned, and finally made it to daybreak. But Master Mingzong did not allow him and Mingkong Zilin to go down the tree.
They had to wait until the sun fully rose before taking the two of them to the waterfall cliff.
After bypassing a forest, thick water vapor hit our face, and through the gaps between the tree trunks and branches and leaves, we could see the white waves ahead.
Master Mingzong stopped Zheng Qiu and Mingkong Zilin and refused to let them go forward: "There are people vying for Duanshui Longya in front of them. Don't join in the fun. If you want to see it, go to the top of the tree and watch."
After saying that, he hugged Zheng Qiu and flew up to the nearest big tree. Mingkong Zilin was unexpectedly obedient. She did not make a fuss to go ahead, but followed him to the tree obediently.
When he reached the top of the tree, Zheng Qiu could see the full view of the waterfall cliff.
A large, surging river, at least a hundred feet wide, with turbulent water, rolling out whirlpools.
On the left side of the field of vision, the hundred-foot-wide river suddenly disappeared, replaced by a bottomless cliff. The rushing river rushed out from the cliff, forming a snow-white curtain. The water fell down to the cliff, making a thunderous sound.
The aroused water mist rises into the sky and spreads into the clouds, frightening the birds that fly by.
"Wow, what a huge waterfall, so spectacular!" Zheng Qiu couldn't help shouting when he saw such a scenery for the first time. But his ears were filled with the rumbling sound of water, and he couldn't even hear his own shouting.
not see.
At this time, the river banks on both sides of the waterfall cliff were filled with people, densely packed, and the colorful clothes covered the green of the vegetation. In this sea of people, ten circular areas were divided.
There is about ten feet of open space between the crowd on the edge and these areas.
Master Ming Zong pointed to these areas and told Zheng Qiu that these were the areas occupied by the ten major sects. At this time of tension, approaching these areas was simply asking for death.
Boom...woo...the water flow of the waterfall suddenly exploded with thunder, and then a strange sound appeared on the river. The sound was powerful and long, like the roar of a giant beast, echoing over the waterfall cliff for a long time.
The crowd on the river bank began to stir, and there was a vague light flashing out from inside, indicating that someone was practicing martial arts.
Master Mingzong stroked his short beard and sighed: "It is indeed a magic weapon. The movement before it was born is really extraordinary. The dragon's roar is so loud and lasts for such a long time, I don't know what it is."
However, the roar of the dragon echoed for a while, then gradually disappeared, leaving only the sound of rumbling water.
Mingkong Zilin sat on a branch, shaking her feet and complained: "Still not coming out. I heard that I have been calling for more than two months. This magic weapon is too ink."
"This is a magic weapon, how can it be born so easily." Master Ming Zong replied with a smile.
As the roar of the dragon disappeared, the crowd on the river bank returned to calm. Zheng Qiu sat on the tree and looked around when he suddenly saw something familiar.
On the upstream side of the river bank, there is a gray hemisphere, like an upside-down bowl. Hey, is this a building? Why does it look like an inn house?
He stretched his neck and stared at the thing. After a while, a man in a white robe walked out. There was a faint blue color on the robe, a bit like the uniform of the Qianyun Sect.
"Master, look there. Is that our Qian Yunzong person?" Zheng Qiu immediately told Master Mingzong about this situation.
Master Ming Zong stared at it for a while and said strangely: "Yes, it's the Qianyun Sect's uniform, and this building is also built with Shi Tinghua's technique. What's going on? Could it be that the sect leader wants to fight for this dragon's tooth?
Are you willing to break the rules that have been observed for thousands of years?"
Master Mingzong was anxious, so he stood up and said to Zheng Qiu and Mingkong Zilin: "You two stay here and don't move around. I'll go take a look first."
After that, he jumped down from the tree and rushed to Gan Yunzong's place, but before he had gone far, he stopped, hesitated for a moment, and then returned to the tree.
"It's not safe for you two to stay here. It's better to go together."
It was definitely not a wise move to fly over the river bank at this time. Master Mingzong led the two of them in a large circle through the woods behind and came to the round house built by Qianyun Sect.
Sure enough, there was a large group of Qianyun Sect people here, all formal disciples wearing blue-striped clothes. They were going in and out carrying wooden boxes, very busy.
"Hello, elder!"
"I've met the elder!"
Master Mingzong ignored the disciples who were greeting him, pushed them away and rushed into the house. The person in the house was not the sect master, but someone he was quite familiar with.
"Ming Chengxi, what are you doing here?"
Elder Ming Chengxi is a fat, middle-aged man. He wears a loose robe with a big belly and has a lazy feeling in his movements.
Ming Chengxi was sitting at the table, writing something in a booklet. When he heard someone calling him, he raised his head, looked at it, and slowly put down the pen.
"Mingzong, I should be the one to ask you this."
Ming Zong grabbed the book on the table, flipped through it, and asked eagerly: "Ming Chengxi, are you here to fight for Dragon Teeth? Did the sect master ask you to come?"
"The second half is correct. I'm here because of the sect master's wishes. But I'm not here to grab the dragon's teeth, but to grab something else."
Ming Zong found that the booklet contained a list of formations, and there was no content about robbing dragon teeth: "If you don't robbing dragon teeth, then what are you robbing?"
Ming Chengxi did not answer Ming Zong's question. He looked behind Ming Zong with a kind smile on his face: "Oh, isn't this Zi Lin baby? Why are you here? Come on, come on in. , it’s dangerous outside.”
Ming Chengxi dragged the chair over and let Mingkong Zilin sit on it. He also took a fan to fan her: "Come, sit down and have a rest. Is it hot or not? Uncle Chengxi will fan you."
"It's better to be uncle Chengxi!"
Mingkong Zilin sat on a chair and kept making faces at Mingzong.
Master Mingzong pulled Zheng Qiu over and patted him on the shoulder: "Huh, I also have a disciple. Unlike some people who are just flatterers, I am only good to my disciples."
After talking for a while, Ming Zong asked Ming Chengxi again why he came here.
Ming Chengxi asked, "Do you know about the unforeseen disaster more than seventy years ago?"
"No one in the world knows, no one knows, that's a big deal."
"Then was the fighting fierce at that time?"
"Of course it's intense."
"That's right!" Ming Chengxi opened the wooden box in the corner, took out a bulging bag and threw it on the table, "We, the Yun Sect, don't compete with others for dragon teeth, let's grab this! Money!"
Ming Chengxi took out another booklet and handed it to Elder Ming Zong, telling him the reason for this incident.
It turned out that the news of Duanshui Longya's birth had been noticed by the sect leader for a long time. He was sure that the Yunxiu sects would fight for the dragon's tooth, so he started preparations half a year in advance.
He asked Ming Siju to find 500 formations from Wentian Pavilion, including defense, offense, and rescue categories, and then sent Ming Chengxi to bring the techniques to Jingpu Cliff. After that, he also asked Ming Chengxi to bring the techniques to Jingpu Cliff. Here we come, more than 40 formal disciples who are proficient in formations, and more than 180 boxes of formation materials.
Ming Zong flipped through the booklet and couldn't help but sigh: "The sect master's moves are really cruel. They are all good formations with immediate results. Now the sect that wants to compete for Dragon Fang has to buy it."
