Qeng Ho Mage

Chapter 242 Under the Yuhu Gorge
Fang Dushu recognized at a glance the identity of the old man in civilian clothes. He was the Sanxiu who sold the Rope Sacrifice Talisman at the Lishan Trade Fair a few days ago.

This person is a full two hundred years old, and his lifespan is about to run out. In order to break through and advance, he used the Rope Sacrifice Talisman to exchange a Qicao Pill with Fujijin.

His cultivation has already reached the stage of false alchemy, and he is even more advanced than Fang Dushu.

When he descended from the clouds and landed nearby, Fang Dushu smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you are very polite! The last time we met was in Mount Li, and this time we met at Jiuquan Snowfield thousands of miles away. What a coincidence!"

"It's really a coincidence!" The old man in plain clothes held his old fist and sighed.

"Fellow Daoist has already bought Qicao Pill at the Lishan Dharma Association. You should find a hidden place to retreat. Why are you still traveling around?" Fang Dushu was a little surprised at this person's behavior.

"Hey, don't mention it!" The old man in civilian clothes was a little frustrated, and said bitterly: "Speaking of which, I'm not afraid of you being a joke, Fellow Daoist Fang. This old man has already taken Qicao Pill, but failed to advance!"

"Failed? That's a pity."

Fang Dushu felt more sympathetic to him, and failed to break through so quickly, which showed that Qicao Pill had no medicinal effect on him, which was equivalent to throwing a Rope Sacrifice Talisman for nothing.

He also never imagined that the Rope Sacrifice Talisman would accidentally land on Fang Dushu.

Fang Dushu asked him again: "At the trade fair that day, fellow daoist left the venue directly after buying Qicao Dan, and left in such a hurry that he didn't have a chance to ask for advice. Dare to ask, what should you call me?"

The old man in plain clothes introduced himself: "My surname is Peng, and I am the ninth eldest in my family. In the early years, my colleagues called him Peng Jiu. Later, as I got older, my colleagues began to call me Peng Jiugong again."

"It turned out to be Fellow Daoist Nine Justices, sorry for your disrespect!"

"Fang Daoyou is polite! Fang Daoyou is the true biography of the sect, so he should stay in the main altar, but this time he is suddenly driving in the snow field, is he doing some errand?"

"It is indeed carrying out the mission of the Zongmen. It is a major event for the long river to flow back. The Zongmen attaches great importance to it. They sent me to investigate the situation of the river! What is the purpose of the Jiugong Daoist?"

"This old man is a casual cultivator. Once a casual cultivator leaves the house, he will probably be hunting for treasures, ha!"

"Treasure hunt?"

Fang Dushu paid attention, and asked with a smile, "Is there any treasure nearby?"

Peng Jiugong didn't hide it, and directly revealed: "The old man was invited by a colleague to come to the river under the Yuhu Gorge to explore an ancient site. This site is very luxurious and the restrictions are quite severe. According to According to that colleague's analysis, it should be the legacy of a certain senior demon cultivator, after the old man failed to form an alchemy, he didn't want to continue to suffer, so he simply agreed to this invitation!"

Fang Dushu was a little upset at the moment. The ruins under the Yuhu Gorge, seventy-eight out of ten, are the demon king's palace that the shepherd girl first discovered. Probe out.

Fang Dushu didn't want the location to be known by outsiders, but the deal was done, he could only go to the palace to check the situation first, and then consider remedies.

He asked Peng Jiugong again: "Friend Jiugong, I have been stationed in Xueqi City for more than [-] years. During this period, I have frequently visited the snowfield. I passed by this Yuhu Gorge not once or twice, but I have never found any ruins?"

Peng Jiugong said with a smile: "Didn't Fellow Daoist Fang hear that since the Tongyou River resumed its flow, those hidden restrictions that were hidden at the bottom of the canyon in ancient times have all revealed their true colors under the pressure of the river, and the river stretches for tens of thousands of miles? , There are dozens of new ruins that have been explored recently, and the ruins under the Yuhu Gorge also have such a history, the entrance was washed out by the river!"

If that is the case.

Then it's not surprising that the shepherd girl's palace of the demon king was exposed.

Even the Xingyao Palace of Tongtian Yao Kingdom in the past was shaken out by the river, not to mention other ruins.

"Has Fellow Daoist Jiugong been to this ruins before?" Fang Dushu continued to inquire.

"Not really! This is the first time this old man has come to explore!" Peng Jiugong was willing to openly reveal the details of the ruins to Fang Dushu, and naturally he did not reject Fang Dushu's following.

Instead of rejecting him, he took the initiative to invite: "To be honest, there are four fellows on this expedition, including the old man. The old man only knows one of them. If you are interested, we can be together!"

Although his cultivation base has reached the period of false alchemy, he is weak after all, and it must be safer to have a helper by his side.

Of course, he is not familiar with Fang Dushu. At the trade fair that day, he didn't even talk to Fang Dushu, but Fang Dushu is innocent. Fang Dushu glanced at it, and directly offered Fang Dushu half the price of his Xue Po Ye, his character must be excellent.

Moreover, Fang Dushu didn't know each other, so Peng Jiugong was very relieved to bring Fang Dushu by his side.

The key is whether Fang Dushu is willing to go?
Peng Jiugong felt at ease with Fang Dushu, but Fang Dushu didn't necessarily treat him.

If it was normal, Fang Dushu would have left immediately after greeting Peng Jiugong, and would not have had such an in-depth conversation.

But this time the situation is quite special.

Fang Dushu decided to take a risk.

He said: "There are not a few ancient ruins on the snowfield. Is there any exploration value under Yuhu Gorge?"

Peng Jiugong immediately said: "There are tributes in the ruins under Yuhu Gorge, at least hundreds of guan, and there are all kinds of authentic texts!"

These are the most important things for the disciples of the sect. Peng Jiugong did not lie, and he did not hide the real situation at the same time: "However, Fellow Daoist Fang, there is a certain danger in the ruins. It is difficult to break through just because of the magic electricity at the entrance. Be safe, old man." I can't guarantee it."

It sounds like magic electricity, but this is the supernatural power of the Shepherd Girl, and the forbidden entrance must have been arranged by the Shepherd Girl.

Fang Dushu's determination to explore was even greater: "According to fellow Daoist Jiugong, you probably didn't discover this site. If you take me there, will it cause dissatisfaction from other comrades?"

Hearing Fang Dushu's intentions, Peng Jiugong's tone became more enthusiastic. He explained in detail: "Please rest assured, Fellow Daoist Fang, the old man has a secret treasure to avoid poison. The reason why they invited the old man is to let the old man break a poisonous ban. After a while, the old man will say that you are here to assist in cracking down on drugs, and when the time comes to divide up the treasures, as long as the old man does not take their share, they will never object."

Up to this point, Fang Dushu had no doubts: "Friend Jiugong explained everything clearly, Fang has no reason not to go, after sneaking into the Yuhu Gorge, he can just explore the topography of the river bottom, and go back to the Sect confession!"

Peng Jiugong immediately stretched out his hand: "In that case, Fellow Daoist Fang, let's go on the road and join those three comrades?"

Fang Dushu nodded, and immediately flew with him to the Tongyou River, crossed directly to the opposite bank, and landed on the Yuhu Peak in the middle of the Xia Mountain.

Those three comrades had already reached the peak one step ahead and were sitting under a pine tree waiting.

Fang Dushu took a look at the three of them, and saw that the young female cultivator looked very familiar. It turned out to be Qu Ya, an orphaned cultivator adopted by Qi Changzhen in Xueqi City back then.

Fang Dushu couldn't help frowning slightly.
