Zhao Langjiang is not afraid of death.

Not only was he not afraid of death, but he was not even afraid of death. When he survived from the sea of ​​corpses and blood on the Western Front battlefield, he had already taken life and death lightly.

Lei Zhenyu is his brother, and it is his business, so when Lei Jiazhuang asks him for help, he has no choice but to agree without hesitation.

Xiao Jinyan is afraid of death, but he is even more afraid of trouble. But he is the kind of person who doesn't make trouble but comes to you. This is true in Suzhou and Leijiazhuang. He attributes these troubles to careless friends. For this reason, Zhao and Li almost fought with him.

As for Li Qingcheng, what he feared the most was loneliness. He came from a famous family and was surrounded by halo and glory since he was a child, but no one understood his inner loneliness until he met Xiao Jinyan and later Zhao Langjiang.

He also knew that sooner or later he would return to Jinling, take over family affairs, and become a person like his father and uncle. This is the family mission that he has been engraved in his heart as a disciple of the Li family. Therefore, he cherishes this opportunity to travel around the world with his friends.

People are not crazy and useless.

Dingling Mountain.

As the Demon Sect's Ghost King Sect, the Ghost King Sect has long been extinct since the death of Mrs. Qi and the sect leader Hao Ke a hundred years ago. However, there are still many places in Shuzhong that have the legend of the Ghost King Sect.

There are two theories that it is called Dingling Mountain.

It is said that after Madam Qi was nailed to death by Yihong in the Central Plains, she laid the tomb in this mountain, so it is called Dingling.

Another saying is that many people who go to the mountains to collect herbs either die in the mountains or return to become madmen. People rumored that there were monsters in the mountains. The monsters would pull away the souls of people who accidentally broke into the mountains and nailed their souls into the mountains, so they called Dingling Mountain. Later, people thought that this name was not good and changed to Dingling Mountain.

No matter which statement is said, it is unpleasant, so this Dingling Mountain, less than a hundred miles west of Jianmen, is not popular despite its rich medicinal materials.

The three of them carried simple bags and walked on the rugged and winding path.

This bag contains flints for making fire, fire powder, climbing ropes, flying hooks, medicinal materials for treating wounds, etc., and can also contain some food, road guides, short weapons, etc. It is a popular Jianghu suit produced by Leijiazhuang. Before leaving, the Lei family specially prepared three sets of luggage. Although it is not big, it is because it has complete functions and the design makes full use of space. It is far from what Xiao Jinyan can compare with a bag or a cloth bag before.

Because Dingling Mountain is very steep and worried that the so-called Ghost King Sect is a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain, Zhao Langjiang did not let Lei Zhenyu and the masters of Leijiazhuang follow them and asked them to search in the city. He and Xiao and Li broke into Dingling Mountain together to find out.

Dingling Mountain is west of Jianmen. The terrain is complex, with towering ancient trees and dense thorns. Leijiazhuang specially found a doctor who often goes in and out nearby to collect herbs as a guide.

The guide's surname is Zhang. He looks in his forties and doesn't talk much. Xiao Jinyan talks to him and asks him three or four questions, but Lao Zhang doesn't even speak a word until his daughter Hong falls to his stomach. Lao Zhang starts talking.

When chatting, he learned that he was in his early thirties and was a doctor who traveled to the world to sell fake medicines. Later, he married and had children at Jianmen and settled down. The area around Dingling Mountain has a dangerous terrain, but there are many precious medicinal materials that come several times a year and are picked and sold to the pharmacy, making a lot of profits.

Speaking of the Ghost King Sect and Mrs. Qi, Lao Zhang said, "When I came to Jiange, I heard the legend of Mrs. Qi. I have never believed in such strange powers and gods. I always feel that some people deliberately spread rumors and spread rumors. The terrain of Dingling Mountain is already complicated. If you are not familiar with the terrain, you may not be able to get out after falling into it, so there is a saying that the ghost is naughty."

"However, two years ago, when I went to the mountain to collect herbs, I encountered something strange."

Xiao Jinyan asked, "What's strange?"

Lao Zhang said as he walked, "We who collect herbs earn money because of hard money. There are so many mountains around us, and the medicinal materials are abundant, but they cannot withstand the picking of people. If you want to make money to support your family, you have to go to some places that ordinary people cannot reach. Logically speaking, the terrain here is complex and rarely uninhabited, so there shouldn't be anyone here. Once, I was entrusted by someone to come to the west to find a herb. I accidentally broke into the foot of Dingling Mountain and encountered a mountain gate."

The three of them waited for him to continue, but Lao Zhang stopped talking. Xiao Jinyan was still thinking about the drunkenness and asked, "What's next?"

Lao Zhang said, "What's wrong? Later, I fainted from scare. After waking up, I was already on the path outside the mountain."

Zhao Langjiang said, "Is the legend of the Ghost King Sect a hundred years ago true? In this way, this industry will not be too boring."

Looking at the mountain, the horse died.

It seemed that the four of them walked on Dingling Mountain more than ten miles away for more than three hours. When they arrived at the back, the mountain road gradually became narrower and became empty. The thorns all the way through a pine forest, and Lao Zhang stopped.

"It's here."

What caught the eyes of the three of them was a broken stone door, more than one meter high, with vines wrapped around the door posts.

Zhao Langjiang used a golden knife to split the vines, revealing a couplet. The first couplet is, heaven knows, earth knows, you know me, and you know, and you will never leave one knowledge; the second couplet is: Good rewards will be rewarded, and bad rewards will be rewarded later, and there will be rewards.

Above the stone gate, there are four seal characters "Ghost and Sweet Land". Behind the stone gate, a three-foot-wide path leads to the top of the mountain.

Xiao Jinyan said, "At that time, the Ghost King Sect built the mountain gate in a place where birds do not poop. They either had to eat enough or had brain disease."

Li Qingcheng said, "That may not be necessary. According to records, when the Ghost King Sect was in full swing, it had a great influence in the world. Even the Tang Sect and Qingcheng avoided their edge. Later, after Mrs. Qi's death, an earthquake occurred in Shu, which isolated the Ghost King Sect from the world."

Zhao Langjiang said to Lao Zhang, "You are waiting for us here. If we don't come back after two hours, you will go back by yourself."

The three of them climbed up the stairs and walked a few steps. Xiao Jinyan pointed to the moss covered with the steps, without any signs of trampling, and said, "I'm afraid we'll be in vain."

Zhao Langjiang said, "There is something strange everywhere in Yu Jiaxue's disappearance. It is mostly caused by something inside Yujiabao. It is just a gimmick made by the Ghost King Sect. Why is it?"

Li Qingcheng said, "Yue Feilu probably didn't tell the truth yesterday, or he didn't know it at all."

Xiao Jinyan asked, "Who made the request when he came to Dingling Mountain?"

Zhao Langjiang said, "It is said that the Yu family's request for the Lei family, what's wrong?"

Xiao Jinyan thought something and shook his head, "I don't know, I just think something is wrong."

He looked up at the mountain and smiled, "Since he is here, don't worry about the Ghost King and the Human King, go up and take a look!"

The three of them are brave people. They walk around the world, whether they are famous or hidden. Since they can encounter such a secret realm, if they don’t explore it, wouldn’t they regret it in the future?

After making up the idea, the three of them went up the mountain along the trail.

As the sky gradually became late, a layer of mist appeared in the mountains, covering the entire mountain in haze. Fortunately, there was flint and fire powder in the luggage, and the three of them had a torch, so they could barely see the road.

At the end of the mountain path is a huge rock.

There was a vague word on it, and Zhao Langjiang raised the torch and read, "Don't enter the newborn." He said to the two, "Why, do you have any acquaintances here?"

Li Qingcheng laughed and scolded, "Idiot, a living person means living. If you want to get in, you have to find a way to die first."

Xiao Jinyan said, "I want to die, but there are many ways to do it. The problem is how to survive after death."

When you walk here, Dingling Mountain is over. Going up, it is a steep mountain jade that is as tall as a knife, which is hundreds of feet high. Not to mention people, it is not easy for birds to fly up.

Zhao Langjiang couldn't help but curse, "What the hell is Wang Zong, Mrs. Qi, after running for a day, I ran into this broken thing?"

The fog is getting thicker and the visibility is less than one meter.

The three of them were about to go back, but were surprised to find that the small hill path that had just climbed the mountain was missing.

Xiao Jinyan's heart was dark.

When this happens, either the three people accidentally touched the mechanism formation, and among the four major Qimen, there is a technique similar to Qimen Dunjia. Or there is a master here, and the three people break into the space of the method.

No matter which one, it may not be pleasant.

The three of them were afraid of getting separated and got together.

Zhao Langjiang cursed, "Damn it, what should I do if I am trapped here?"

Xiao Jinyan released the string power and found that there was no real energy fluctuation nearby except for the fog and the disappearing road. He said, "This is the former site of the Ghost King Sect. We should have encountered their ban and were trapped in the formation. If it were usual, I would definitely recommend taking a nap first and making plans until dawn."

"What about now?"

Xiao Jinyan patted his luggage, "If you have wine and meat, let's have dinner first!"

Zhao and Li said in unison, "Extremely wonderful, a wonderful plan!"

The three of them looked for the branches and dry firewood, and changed the torch into a fire. There was meat, wine, and dry food in their luggage. The three of them thought of ways while eating.

Xiao Jinyan said: "I don't understand astronomy, and I don't understand the Eight Trigrams. I know nothing about Qimen Dunjia. I'm going to be able to bear it now."

Li Qingcheng said, "It's just a breaking formation."

Zhao Langjiang asked, "Do you understand?"

Li Qingcheng said, "I don't understand. But, however, I know that the formation is a dead place, and people are a living place. As the saying goes, can living people still be suffocated to death by urine?"

After drinking, Li Qingcheng stood up and said, "I'll urinate first."

He stood up and came to the stone that "Don't enter a strange person". He was about to relieve his hands when he suddenly heard Zhao Langjiang scream, and in an instant, he lost all his urge to urinate.

"What's wrong?"

Zhao Langjiang said, "Oh, it's okay, I saw a bat."

Li Qingcheng cursed a few times, turned around and prepared to continue, Xiao Jinyan suddenly shouted again, "Sorry, I saw a bat too."

Li Qingcheng was really fed up with these two guys, but despite this, despite being full of urination, he could never urinate again. Zhao Langjiang said, "How is it, does it taste good?"

Xiao Jinyan laughed, "Come on, let's go together!"

The three of them stood beside the huge rock and unbuttoned their pants. Li Qingcheng suddenly screamed with a "ah".

Zhao Langjiang asked, "What's wrong? You also saw a bat?"

At this moment, a bat flew out from nowhere, and then a rumbling sounded, and the huge rock moved to the side, revealing a large hole behind it.

Puff puff puff!

Countless black shadows surged out of the cave, and thousands of bats, each bat as big as a fist, besieged at the three of them.
