Chapter 1440 Exploring the Underground River

The words "Go" made Lu Wushuang turn around silently. She remembered the first time she met Niu Youdao at the gate of Wuliang Garden.

Her disdain and condescension at that time, while Niu Youdao's respect for her, are all vivid in my mind now. The contrast between now and the past makes me feel very complicated.

Niu Youdao suddenly said behind her, "Monkey is now too embarrassed to go out because of you. He is temporarily responsible for receiving and sending all kinds of intelligence. You said you would help him. From today on, you will be by his side."

Please help him. I don't want to make too much noise about Feng Guan'er's matter. I hope you can handle it properly. I won't get involved in your family affairs."

Lu Wushuang looked back, walked out of the secret room, met the three people waiting outside, and left in silence without saying a word.

The three of them looked at each other, and then quickly came to the secret room. Yuan Gang was the first to ask, "Master Tao, how are you?"

I kind of want to know if my efforts are worth it.

Niu Youdao: "I have said everything that needs to be said, and I know it well. Monkey, starting from today, she will assist you in handling intelligence matters."

Yuan Gang was slightly surprised, "The information we exchanged involves many secrets. If she gets involved, wouldn't she be able to find out?"

Niu Youdao: "It doesn't matter. I said I know what I know and can let her get in touch. You have to understand that no matter who she was before, no matter what status or ability she had before, she doesn't know anything.

Under such circumstances, no matter how capable she is, her eyesight will be blank, and she will not be able to provide useful advice if she does not know the situation."

Yuan Gang was silent.

After he left, Guan Fangyi tried to ask: "Master Dao, that woman is not an ordinary person. I'm afraid the monkey is no match for her. She is used to being aloof. Don't you be afraid that she knows too much... What if one day her ambition becomes difficult to quell?

, will she take advantage of the monkey, will she sow discord between you and the monkey?"

Niu Youdao: "It doesn't matter. At least she should understand that in the future, she will be nothing without the monkey. No matter how much she provokes, it is enough as long as she can keep the monkey. If things can really be postponed to the future, many things will be

There’s no need to worry.”

Suddenly there were footsteps outside, and it was Lu Wushuang who heard the footsteps.

The three of them looked, and sure enough, Lu Wushuang came back and walked to the case, "There is something I forgot to remind you just now. When Saint Rakshasa was rescued, two bird mounts appeared on your side. The Six Saints should be there.

Track down those two mounts."

Niu Youdao: "Don't worry, this won't be traced to us."

Lu Wushuang: "That's not what I want to say. After Zhuge Chi was tipped off and escaped, and chaos arose behind him, I met with them to discuss. In order to curb the intensity of the chaos and limit the reaction speed of those with evil intentions, we considered

Don’t control all the bird mounts in the world. This time, Holy Rakshasa and I escaped. Once the origin of the two bird mounts cannot be found, the Six Saints will most likely confiscate all the bird mounts in the world."

Yunji and Guan Fangyi looked at each other.

Niu Youdao: "How likely is it?"

Lu Wushuang: "It's very big, you should prepare early." After saying that, he bowed slightly, then turned and left.

Niu Youdao frowned. If this was the case, it would be really inconvenient to travel between places in the future.

What are you afraid of? I was just reminded here. I received the news in the afternoon. The Piaomiao Pavilion sent an order to the world, ordering all the bird mounts in the world to be handed over to the Piaomiao Pavilion. Whether they are from various sects or from the military and political forces in the imperial courts of various countries, all of them are

Turn it over and no private use is allowed.

All localities will implement the decree immediately after receiving it without any delay, and hand it over to the nearby Tianxia Bank, which will handle the funeral arrangements.

Of course, it is not confiscated in vain. You pay according to the market price. Banks all over the world will pay for it and repurchase it every penny.

Once the decree was issued, it was carried out vigorously and resolutely. No one dared to delay, and Niu Youdao's side was no exception. The people in the thatched cottage had to send all their birds and mounts to Tianxia Bank in Nanzhou Fucheng.

In the blink of an eye, the response speed of personnel deployment from various sects was brought to the same level by Piao Miao Pavilion.

All forces, whether they like it or not, have to accept this reality honestly. From now on, the major officials will have to bump on horseback when traveling, and the speed is still slow.

This is tantamount to depriving the senior leaders of each major faction of a privilege, and many things will be inconvenient in the future.

And this is obviously one of the effects that Piao Miao Pavilion wants.

Afterwards, we received a message from Xihaitang. The Ten Thousand Beasts Gate is probably the only place besides Piaomiao Pavilion that keeps bird mounts.

The power reserved to the Wanshou Sect is because the Wanshou Sect continues to domesticate and breed bird mounts, and is not for use by the Wanshou Sect. The bird mounts of the Wanshou Sect are not allowed to leave the area where the Wanshou Sect belongs.

Relatively speaking, other sects are doing better, but Wanshou Sect has suffered greater losses. Piao Miao Pavilion's behavior is tantamount to cutting off one of Wanshou Sect's financial avenues.

If it can no longer be used, who will buy from Wanshoumen in the future? Wanshoumen will not dare to sell it.

Niu Youdao had no choice but to jostle on horseback, and he and Yun Ji left Nanzhou Fucheng and galloped all the way to Cangwu County.

After getting Wuyou's confirmation from Lu Wushuang, Niu Youdao started to verify some things.

Guan Fangyi still didn't get the chance to hunt for treasure together, and Niu Youdao didn't even say hello to her when she left.

After not being on horseback for a long time, Niu Youdao was not used to it when he suddenly returned to this state. His work efficiency was much slower, not to mention that there were many eyes and ears on the ground, which also increased the possibility of exposure.

Fortunately, Cangwu County is within Nanzhou, not too far away.

With the handwriting from the Nanzhou military, it was no problem to change horses at various stations along the way, and we arrived at Cangwu County on a starry night journey.

After the two found an inn to stay, they immediately put down their horses and left the city.

Breaking into the mountains, walking through the forest, and finally stopping between an old tree, Niu Youdao raised his hand and pointed to a villa in the opposite mountain, which was the villa left by King Ning.

Yun Ji was confused when she saw it, and her eyes immediately brightened, and she saw the trick, and turned around: "Is it the villa on the map of your sword?"

Niu Youdao nodded, "There is a secret passage in the villa that leads underground. There is an underground river a hundred feet deep underground. There are people staying in the villa. I don't want to alert you. It is inconvenient to enter through the secret passage in the villa. You can go underground and check it out.

Come to me as soon as you find the underground river."

Yun Ji nodded and fled underground.

With the exact direction, it was not difficult to find the underground river. Less than half an hour later, Yun Ji emerged from the ground again and said, "Found it."

"Take me, let's go." Niu Youdao greeted, and Yunji immediately took him underground.

Not long after, the two of them broke through the wall and entered an underground space, with the sound of gurgling water in their ears.

Two moon butterflies were released one after another to illuminate the space of the underground river. Beyond the light, it was pitch black, giving people a sense of mystery.

After letting the moon butterfly fly away to look at the lighting, Niu Youdao asked in a low voice: "How far is it from the villa? Is it in the upstream or downstream direction of the villa?"

Yun Ji: "It's not far, only about half a mile, in the downward direction."

Niu Youdao observed the water flow, silently recalled the map, turned around, used the moon butterfly to illuminate, and continued walking in the downward direction, with Yun Ji following.

The two of them did not fly quickly, but looked carefully at the light along the way, as if they were afraid of missing something.

Yun Ji followed closely, slightly wary, and didn't ask many questions. She knew that she must be looking for the secret place recorded on the map, and being able to bring her here was already a huge trust.

Of course she also knew that the reason why she was traveling with her was that she had to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the cow and protect the cow in an ethical manner.

After walking for a while, there was a huge turn ahead, and the sound of water flow turned into a roar.

As we got closer, we found that we had arrived at an outlet of the underground river and an underground waterfall. The water mist was billowing and the water was dripping on the stone wall.

Yunji glanced at Niu Youdao who had stopped, and then stopped.

Niu Youdao's moon butterfly shuttles back and forth in the mist, and Niu Youdao uses its light to observe the surroundings with Dharma eyes.

Not seeing anything interesting, Yuedie returned and Niu Youdao whispered: "According to the marks on the map, if I read it correctly, the place we are looking for should be here. There is nothing visible on the surface, but if

If it really exists, there must be an entrance to a secret passage here. Look for it. You are responsible for the shore, and I will go to the underwater to take a look."

"Okay!" Yun Ji agreed.

Niu Youdao collected the moon butterfly, took out a luminous pearl, and jumped directly to the dark place under the waterfall. He slowly landed and was enveloped by the rolling mist, and gradually only a ball of light remained.

Yun Ji, who was standing on the shore, looked around for a while, then turned around and drove Yue Die to the stone wall to check, knocking on it from time to time, or pressing it with her hands to cast spells to penetrate it.

Niu Youdao, who entered the water below the waterfall, continued to dive in the surging bubbles. The water below was a bit deep, dozens of feet long before it reached the bottom. Except for a ball of dim light in his hand, everything was pitch black.

Some strange and unknown fish were swimming freely in the water, and some were fierce in nature and attacked him, so it was difficult to get close to him.

The rocks at the bottom of the water were large and small, and rugged. Niu Youdao searched with magic all the way to no avail. He also used magic to check the stone walls on both sides of the water tank, but still found no clues.

After struggling for an hour, Niu Youdao broke out of the water and landed on the bank. He saw that Yunji was already investigating far away on the other bank.

Sensing that he was up, Yun Ji rushed over and asked, "Have you noticed anything?"

Niu Youdao still wanted to ask her, but when he saw what she said, he knew that there was no need to ask, and the other party would definitely gain nothing. He shook his head, looked around and said, "There is no need to look too far away. According to the map, if the target is here,

, the entrance should not be far away, unless I have some misunderstanding of the map."

His eyes suddenly fell on the huge drop into the water. He thought of something, jumped down, followed the current, and groped on the stone wall behind the water curtain.

Not long after, Yunji discovered that the light of the luminous pearl in the water curtain stopped halfway up the waterfall. She immediately ducked away, broke through the water curtain, and appeared next to Niu Youdao.

After casting a spell to force the water flow away, I saw a huge boulder embedded in the cliff that had been impacted by the water flow. It should be because the water flow has been washed away for many years, and it has become almost integrated with the cliff. If you don't pay attention, it is not easy to attract attention.

.

Niu Youdao was exploring the huge rock.
