"The place where we were born is not the mountains of Central China Province, but the mountains of South China Province. It is in a place called Nanwaling in Nanwa County. I wonder if you have heard of it?" the female snake spirit said.
Hearing the words of the female snake spirit, Zhang Fan raised his eyebrows, she turned out to be from Nanwaling!
Seeing the change in the expression on Zhang Fan's face, the female snake spirit asked: "What's wrong? Have you been there?"
"I've been there, and something happened there." Zhang Fan replied.
"By the way, when did you come out of Nanwaling?" Zhang Fan asked.
"It must have been almost 10 years since I came out. I have been practicing in the wild mountains of Nanwa Ridge and have never come out." The female snake spirit replied.
"Then have you been to the highest peak in Nanwa Mountains?" Zhang Fan continued to ask.
"I've been there, but it was four hundred years ago. When I went there, the highest peak in Nanwa Ridge was still a barren mountain, and there was no tourism development, but the scenery was still beautiful." The female snake spirit replied.
.
"But since that time, I have never been to the highest mountain again." The female snake spirit continued.
"Why?" Zhang Fan asked.
"Tianzong sent many masters to dig out a cave halfway up the highest mountain, and cut the back of the highest peak perpendicular to the entrance of the cave, in order to prohibit anyone from climbing.
After doing this, the people from Tianzong roared at the top of the mountain and told us monsters that no one should get close to the highest mountain anymore. If we dare to get close, they will attack us and drive us to pieces.
Under such circumstances, we did not dare to approach the highest peak of Nanwa Ridge anymore. Although it later became a tourist attraction, we did not dare to approach it again. Those words said by the powerful Tianzong back then have left us with lingering fears." Female Snake
Jing replied.
Hearing the words of the female snake spirit, a look of disappointment appeared on Zhang Fan's face. Zhang Fan only knew that the cave halfway up the highest peak of Nanwa Ridge was where people who were executed by the Tianzong leader were buried. There was no more information. He
I thought I could get some other information from the native female snake spirit.
"Huh? By the way, Master, I remembered something." The female snake spirit suddenly said.
"Twenty years ago, we went down the mountain to play. On the way back, we met an old Taoist in shabby clothes. The old Taoist chanted this sentence: 'The world laughs at me because I am too crazy. I laugh at me and the world can't see through it. In my opinion, the old Taoist
,The world is like hell, hell is better than the world!'"
Hearing the words of the female snake spirit, Zhang Fan raised his eyebrows slightly. Isn't this what Master Wang Xiaoshan often said? Could it be that the old Taoist they met was Wang Xiaoshan's master?
Before he left Chenzhuangzi Village, Wang Xiaoshan said that he would come to find him and asked him to take him to the place where he met his master before to investigate. It has been more than two months and he has not called Zhang Fan.
, saying that he would come to find him.
"Have you communicated with this person?" Zhang Fan asked, "What did he say?"
“We just said hello briefly, we asked him where he was going, and he pointed to the highest peak in Nanwa Mountains, and asked us if we were going with him, but we didn’t dare to follow him there.
We watched helplessly as he climbed to the top of the mountain, and then jumped down from the top of the mountain.
I guess I went to the cave halfway up the mountain." The female snake spirit said.
Zhang Fan glanced at the female snake spirit, and then said: "Wait a moment, I will make a call first."
The female snake spirit nodded and at the same time made a gesture of invitation.
Zhang Fan found Wang Xiaoshan's phone number and dialed it. After the phone rang seven or eight times, Wang Xiaoshan's lazy voice came from the phone: "Hello..."
It was already late at night, and Wang Xiaoshan had gone to bed long ago, otherwise it would not have been possible to pick him up so late.
"I am Zhang Fan..." Zhang Fan said directly.
There was a brief silence on the other side of the phone, and then a voice in a relatively good mood came, "It turns out to be Mr. Zhang. Is there anything wrong with you calling me so late?"
"I met a spirit. She said that she once met someone who chanted your master's mantra. She didn't know if the person was your master. Take a photo of your master and send it to me so I can confirm." Zhang Fan said.
"Okay, Mr. Zhang, I'll take the photo for you right away." Wang Xiaoshan became more energetic, "Thank you for still thinking about my master. After you left, I bought a house in Wei County. In the past two months,
I have been busy with renovations.
Exploring my master's affairs is a long process. I have to settle my wife and children first before I can relax and fully devote myself to exploring my master's affairs. Therefore, I did not go to you to investigate my master's affairs.
.
After two months of decoration, the decoration was finally completed yesterday. I was about to go over to find you. Are you in Pingshan City now?"
"No, I'm outside. I'll give you a call when I get back. By the way, snap photos. I have something else to do here," Zhang Fan said.
"I've got the photo. I'll take it for you right away and send it to your WeChat. We'll chat when we have time." Wang Xiaoshan said.
After saying that, the two hung up the phone. Soon, Zhang Fan received a photo from Wang Xiaoshan. Zhang Fan directly handed the photo to the female snake spirit and asked: "Is it him?"
After the female snake spirit looked at the photo carefully, her eyes suddenly lit up and she said: "It's him! It's him!"
Hearing the words of the female snake spirit, Zhang Fan frowned. Why was the old man in rags going to the place where Tianzong's body was buried? Although Zhang Fan didn't understand why the old man in rags went there, there was a faint feeling in Zhang Fan's heart.
One guess is that the cave halfway up the highest peak of Nanwa Ridge may not be just related to Tianzong as it seems on the surface, but may also have a lot to do with some people from the outside world.
Seeing Zhang Fan lost in thought, the female snake spirit called out: "Master..."
The voice of the female snake spirit brought Zhang Fan back from his thoughts. Zhang Fan glanced at the female snake spirit and said, "Stop talking about this matter. You continue to talk about the disappearance case."
The female snake spirit nodded and said: "A total of four of us came out from Nanwaling. One is the vixen who just died. We all respectfully call him eldest sister. The other three are our three famous immortal families in Fenggu County.
Besides me, there is a hedgehog spirit and a weasel spirit.
The three of us have been together since we became monsters, and the vixen only met two years ago when the three of us came out.
Yes, so between the three of us, I have a deeper relationship, and I don’t have a deep relationship with the vixen."
"We had never seen the sea in Nanwaling. After settling in Wangjiagang Village, the four of us went to the seaside with great interest. The first time we saw the sea, we fell in love with it. So,
The four of us immediately decided to stay in Fenggu County." The female snake spirit continued.
