"In the Taiyuan Dynasty of the Jin Dynasty, the people of Wuling were engaged in fishing. They walked along the stream and forgot the distance of the road. Suddenly they came across a peach blossom forest, hundreds of steps along the bank. There were no miscellaneous trees in the middle, the grass was delicious, and the fallen flowers were colorful... The forest was exhausted, and the water source was there.
Then we found a mountain with a small mouth, as if there was light. We left the boat and entered through the mouth. It was very narrow at first, and then it was accessible to people. After walking for dozens of steps, it suddenly became clear. The land was flat, the houses looked like, and there were beautiful fields.
Pond, mulberry and bamboo belong to..." Cheng Peng murmured to himself and recited the entire short chapter "The Story of Peach Blossom Spring".
This article has been passed down through the ages and can be said to be an iconic masterpiece in ancient Chinese literature. Not to mention historians such as Cheng Peng who can be called "learned people", even many middle school students can recite it. For that unique Taoyuan
People have always longed for this hometown, and there are legends and poems about it from generation to generation. It is also one of the most famous chapters in Chinese myths and legends.
If the scenery along the way was not somewhat different from what was described in "Peach Blossom Spring", Cheng Peng would have noticed it already. But probably because the game designer did not intend to simply copy Peach Blossom Spring, he made some adjustments to the scenery on the road.
After a lot of modifications, it took him until now to realize where he was!
"Peach Blossom Spring? Is that the legendary ideal land for escaping from violence?" Shen Qi asked doubtfully, "Why is the cemetery of Liu Hou Zhang Liang related to Peach Blossom Spring?"
Cheng Peng couldn't answer this question either.
"If this is the Peach Blossom Spring, then... the scenery on the road is different from the Peach Blossom Spring. Does this imply anything?" Shen Qi asked again.
Cheng Peng frowned, feeling vaguely uneasy.
This uneasiness came suddenly and for no reason, but it made him nervous for no reason - the intuition of an innate warrior would never act out of thin air. Although it was only triggered by Shen Qi's reminder, the sense of crisis was real.
The road ahead...may be full of dangers!
Both Cheng Peng and Shen Qi have experienced many adventures. For them, danger has long been a common occurrence and is nothing to worry about. The only thing they need to worry about is whether it will affect the mission.
"No matter what, we still have to enter the Peach Blossom Spring... I will take the lead, you wait for my news before going over." Cheng Peng looked at the small cave and said in a deep voice, "The time is limited, I can't wait for others to arrive -
Don't look at me like this, I have a little bit of confidence in my own defense!"
With that said, he jumped to the entrance of the cave and took a closer look inside.
The cave was very dark, but a faint shimmer could be seen inside, and a cool breeze mixed with the fragrance of green grass was blowing out from inside.
He took a deep breath, channeled enough protective energy, and used his mind power to strengthen his defense. Then he no longer hesitated. Amidst Shen Qi's instructions to "be careful," he cautiously but firmly said:
Entered the cave.
The inside of the cave is not as dark as imagined, but it is a bit narrow and can only accommodate one person - and in addition to Liu Xueji and Du Sanmiao, who are petite, the medium-to-high Cheng Peng and the slender and tall Shen Qi also have to walk a little.
Keep your head down to avoid hitting your head on the roof of the cave.
However, after walking about twenty or thirty meters, the cave gradually opened up, and the light in front gradually became stronger. After walking another twenty or thirty meters, the cave could already accommodate two people walking side by side... About two minutes later, Cheng
Peng finally saw the exit of the cave - it was a cave entrance large enough for a dozen people to pass through, but there was a stone wall blocking the entrance. He could only see what appeared to be woods outside, but he couldn't see what it looked like.
Just when Cheng Peng was about to speed up and go out, a warning sign suddenly occurred in his heart!
He didn't have time to think about it and retreated quickly, his body sticking to the cave wall like a mural.
Almost at the same time, with a low roar, a black figure suddenly appeared on the stone wall blocking the entrance of the cave. In an instant, it transformed into a black panther more than two meters tall. Like a black lightning, it jumped from where he had just stood.
He rushed over and tore the stones on the ground and cave wall with his sharp claws, leaving cracks deeper than a palm.
"What on earth is this?" Cheng Peng was shocked, but he didn't dare to relax his hands. He immediately picked up the fire lin gun and faced it.
Leopards are known for their agility, so if they were allowed to attack freely, it would be really detrimental to Cheng Peng.
When the fight started, Cheng Peng was surprised again - not only was the leopard's speed and attack power astonishing, but its defensive power was also unexpected. Cheng Peng's Fire Lin Gun was a three-star gold-level weapon.
The attack power is already extraordinary, and Cheng Peng's innate Qi is strengthened. One shot can pierce even an iron block, but unless the "sharp weapon" skill that can ignore the enemy's defense is triggered, its attack will not hurt at all.
Not to mention the huge black panther, the sharp spear point pierced the leopard's dark body, as if it had pierced an extremely hard metal. It could only scatter a few sparks, but could not leave even a white mark.
Fortunately, the Fire Lin Gun itself has a "sharp weapon" skill that has a certain probability of ignoring the enemy's defense, and a "speed" skill that reduces the enemy's speed and increases his own speed. The former allows Cheng Peng to hurt the Black Panther without using some ultimate moves, while the latter
This allowed him to suppress the leopard's most terrifying speed and gain an upper hand in the battle.
After one person and one leopard fought for five or six minutes, Cheng Peng finally relied on the randomly activated "sharp weapon" skill to accumulate enough damage and stab the panther to death.
[You eliminated the phantom beast "Black Stone Leopard" guarding the entrance to Taoyuan Township, temporarily breaking the restriction to Taoyuan Township. Now anyone can freely pass through this cave for two hours, and the restriction will be automatically restored after two hours. ]
"Is this still valid? Can the ban be automatically restored?" Cheng Peng was stunned, and quickly called Shen Qi in the team channel to come over, and also asked about the progress of others.
"We have landed ashore and are walking through the forest." Gu Feng replied simply.
The black young man Morili said in more detail: "What a coincidence! As soon as we passed through the woods, the charred big tree returned to its original shape, and then a piece of fog blocked the road. The distance was so close, but it was both
It’s so amazing to not be able to see or hear the river!”
"It's just a game setting, there's nothing wrong with it..." Yun Yu, who has jumped on Kunlun Mountain countless times, said lightly, "Just get used to it."
Seeing that they had taken the topic in an inexplicable direction, Cheng Peng couldn't help but urge: "Stop saying a few words! Come over there quickly, the ban on my side will be restored in two hours."
"Two hours is enough, don't worry!" Liu Xueji replied with a smile.
"Yes, yes, even one hour is enough. We don't need to carefully explore the road like you, we can just speed over and get it done." Herman also smiled happily, "With you, an expert, exploring the road ahead.
Lu, we are absolutely assured!”
"If you are worried, let Wang Hu, who is faster, rush to join you first. It is enough for us to have Gu Feng." Xu Tu suggested, "Now it is your side that lacks combat effectiveness..."
"... Let him stay with you. I don't know why I think you need him more - my intuition is very accurate." Cheng Peng thought for a while and expressed his intuition.
Strictly speaking, this statement is not a reason, but since the team is headed by Cheng Peng, then his orders should be implemented. Moreover, to be honest, everyone really doesn't believe that with Cheng Peng's force and Shen Qi as an assistant, he can still do it.
What dangers can be encountered?
It's not that it's impossible, but if there is a danger of that level, even if Wang Hu rushes there, he may not be able to help. At most, everyone can escape faster.
While he was talking, Cheng Peng had already restored the energy lost in the battle through meditation, returning his condition to its optimal state, and then cautiously approached the stone wall.
On the stone wall, which was as smooth as a mirror, there was only one painting of a mighty black panther - it seemed to be the black panther that he had fought with just now. In the space below the painting, there were two lines of words written in ancient style.
It is a Korean script from the Warring States Period, and is one of the pre-Qin scripts commonly known as Dazhuan.
The font of Dazhuan actually includes many different kinds of characters. A few of them are particularly unpopular, and even professional scholars may not be able to fully identify them. But Korean Dazhuan is just one of the few that Cheng Peng can read.
1, so he understood those two lines of text without much effort.
These two lines of fourteen characters, each with seven characters per sentence, are actually two lines of poetry:
The world is far apart from the human world, and I can't bear the misery and chaos of the world.
Cheng Peng chewed on the sadness and helplessness expressed in these two lines of poetry and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
Zhang Liangnai was a legendary figure in the late Qin and early Han dynasties. He assassinated Qin Shihuang, causing the tyrant to become frightened and sick, and eventually died on the eastward patrol. He assisted Liu Bang in pacifying the troubled times and created a glorious Han Dynasty. He also guided Empress Lu in choosing the prince, avoiding the court battles in the early Han dynasty...
...The most rare thing is that he retired with great success, and was able to survive in front of Liu Bang and Empress Lu who were narrow-minded and narrow-minded. His achievements throughout his life were perfect, which made future generations sigh and admire him.
But in this world, Zhang Liang, who became an immortal and perhaps founded Taoyuan Township, could only leave these two sad poems... Cheng Peng sighed, walked around the stone wall, and saw the legendary Taoyuan Township.
.
The vast land, lush woods, many fields are scattered among the woods, and there are clear springs flowing, and the spring water jingles like fine musical instruments.
Looking around, the cliffs surrounding Taoyuan Township stretch into the endless distance.
The only weird thing is... there is no one in the huge Taoyuan Township, and even the fields are abandoned. The plants that should be crops are growing like weeds. Cheng Peng even saw a tree that seemed to have grown into a big tree.
of sorghum.
What on earth is going on?
After Shen Qi also arrived to join them, the two of them, full of doubts, walked down the stone steps next to the stone platform and set foot on the land of Taoyuan Township.
No matter what problems there are, it doesn't matter. The most important thing now is to catch up with Qingfeng Palace and his party and prevent them from obtaining the Xuanyuan Sword and the Heavenly Book!
