Hong Chen looked carefully, thought slowly, and finally recalled that the clothes of the group of people in blue were exactly the same as the people of the Bihai Sect who had "visited" a few days ago. Looking at the people in yellow on the other side, they also seemed to have seen the same thing.
However, I couldn't help but ask them: "Are these friends of the 'Peach Willow Clan'?"
A middle-aged man in yellow raised his hands and said, "I've met the black tea hero Tao Luyao of Taoliu Gate."
Hong Chen looked at the young man in blue again and said: "Aren't you, the Bihai Sect, and their Taoliu Clan friends who have been friends on the same mountain for generations? Why are you fighting in Wuyang Mountain and claiming revenge? Why do you have such hatred?"
"
The young man in blue said angrily: "Red leader, you are too lenient. This is Manzhou, not Qingzhou. There is no need to explain to you the grudges between our two sects, right? I hope you leave quickly, sir."
It would be better to intervene."
Tao Luyao said at this time: "Xia Hong, you don't need to pay attention to Ling Bo. Even if he tells you, what he says will confuse right and wrong. It's bullshit."
The young man in blue named "Ling Bo" cursed again: "Old dog Tao, don't you dare spit on others with your blood! You have harmed my master, and now you have taken the lead and falsely accused me. It's really hateful."
"Ling Bo, please stop being so arrogant!" Tao Luyao glared, "It's obvious that you Bihai Sect came out to do it yourself and didn't know what the dirty things were, but you took the opportunity to frame us Taoliu Clan. It's simply too much of a deception!"
"Humph, you know who is right and who is wrong!" Ling Bo said, "If you weren't right, why did you sneak up to Wuyang Mountain with your people?"
Tao Luyao said angrily: "Okay, you are really good at cheating. Why did I secretly come to Wuyang Mountain? Isn't it because I don't want you guys to come in front of the seniors..." When he said this, Tao Luyao said the following words.
After holding back, he went back and said to the other people from the Taoliu Clan: "Ignore them, we will go up the mountain overnight." Then the Taoliu Clan group picked up weapons and left the inn.
Ling Bo spat fiercely at the backs of the Taoliu Clan people, then waved his hand and said to the other Bihai Sect disciples: "We can't let them get the upper hand, let's leave quickly!" They also picked up the weapons on the ground and followed.
The innkeeper threw down a few coins and rushed out of the inn.
In the original place, only Hong Chen and a few dazed onlookers were left, as well as broken tables and chairs scattered on the ground.
Although the innkeeper accepted the compensation from the Bihai Sect, he still had a grimace on his face and called for the guys to clean up the mess.
Hong Chen went over and asked: "Shopkeeper, those two groups just went to the mountain to find some senior? Are there any Jianghu gangs on Wuyang Mountain?"
The shopkeeper shook his head: "I have been running an inn here for ten years and have met many Jianghu people, but I have never heard of any sect in Wuyang Mountain." But then he added: "However, sometimes, some people
His remarks are a bit strange. Just like the two groups of people just now."
Hong Chen was curious: "What are these strange remarks?"
The shopkeeper said: "They probably mentioned some seniors, uncles, masters, etc... Judging from the looks of them, they didn't come to pay homage to their elders, but rather to look for someone. There are such people every year, and they all come from different forces.
Place. I was thinking, although Wuyang Mountain is very famous, it is still an unlucky place after all. Who would make an appointment to meet someone here?"
Hong Chen thought back to Tao Luyao and Ling Bo's words again, and felt more and more strange: There should be a conflict between the Bihai Sect and the Taoliu Clan, but why did they come to Wuyang Mountain? Could it be that there is something here that can help them?
The master who upholds justice? Is he the "senior" mentioned by Tao Luyao?
Back in the room, Hong Chen told Chen Tu what he had seen and heard. Chen Tu suddenly sat up from the bed and said, "We will also go up the mountain overnight to catch up with them."
"What are you chasing after them for?"
Hong Chen also felt that the behavior of the two groups of people was suspicious, but as Ling Bo said, their affairs had nothing to do with him. It was better not to get involved in these grievances. Otherwise, no benefits would be lost, and he might get into trouble.
Dirty.
"Look who they are looking for!" Chen Tu was full of energy and walked out the door with a big box on his back. "This Wuyang Mountain is really not simple."
Hong Chen carried another box on his back and followed. The two of them climbed the mountain in the night. Although there were no torches, they could still see with the light of the moon and stars, as well as their internal strength, which was better than ordinary people's eyesight.
Able to travel quickly through mountain and forest trails.
There were recent messy footprints ahead, and there was a smell of burnt smell in the air. Looking further into the distance, you could vaguely see the faint light of sparks, which should be the people from the Bihai Sect and Taoliu Clan. Hong Chen and Chen Tu were close to each other.
I hurriedly chased after them, and saw that I was still dozens of feet away from the two groups, but the firelight suddenly disappeared into the darkness.
"What's going on?"
Chen Tu took the lead and rushed over with long strides, followed closely by Hong Chen. When the two of them reached the point where the fire disappeared, they found that the messy footprints stopped abruptly and did not continue any further.
"Where have they gone?" Chen Tu squinted his eyes and looked around curiously, "There is no cliff here, and you can't fall down. Those people don't have wings and can't fly away. But they just disappeared without a trace?"
Hong Chen didn't speak, but looked at the surrounding rocks one by one to see if there was anything strange about them.
When he was in Yunzhou more than a year ago, Hong Chen entered an underground secret room in the abandoned bamboo garden of Zhuguangmen. At that time, he triggered a mechanism in the rockery and fell into the secret room, where he met
Jiang Ting and Zhong Li discovered the remains of Jiang Bo, the old leader of the Fengguang Sect.
There were about ten people from the Bihai Sect and the Taoliu Sect who came to the mountain. It was impossible for them all to use Qing Kung Fu and run away without leaving a trace. It was very possible that they passed through the trap and entered some secret place.
Hong Chen bent down and leaned closer to the rock at his feet. He observed carefully. When he reached a place, he felt that the smell of burning was stronger than the surroundings. When he looked again, he saw that there was a burning smell on the rock.
There were a few drops of tar, probably from the burning torch.
"By the way, some mechanisms can only be triggered by injecting infuriating energy."
Hong Chen guessed that the mechanism that opened a secret passage somewhere should be near this rock dripping with tar, so he transferred his true energy to the palm of his right hand and touched the rocks one by one.
Chen Tu saw Hong Chen's movements and also tried together. The two of them fumbled for about half a quarter of an hour. When Chen Tu's palm touched a certain rock, there was a slight noise on the ground. Hong Chen hurriedly turned around, but
I saw a not-so-narrow secret passage appearing on the ground two feet away, leading diagonally into the mountain below.
"That's it!"
Hong Chen looked slightly happy, but did not enter rashly.
Chen Tu was impatient and jumped straight into the secret passage. Hong Chen grabbed him and said, "Don't go down yet. You can't see anything down here. I don't know what will be there."
The last time he entered the secret room of Liuguang Gate, Hong Chen was almost injured by Zhongli, and he has a deep memory.
If you enter this secret passage, what enemies will you encounter hiding in the dark?
