Chapter 230 Jade Furnace Cold 21 Night Talk Around the Furnace
According to the treasure map that A Li remembered, the treasure was located in the northwest area of ​​Xuan Kingdom, not near the Youshan Mountain of the Heavenly Sword Sect's main altar.This made Yuhui very puzzled. In theory, Tianjianzong was responsible for guarding the treasures for the royal family of the Xuan Kingdom. Why not simply build the main altar near the treasures, which is more convenient and safe?But after thinking about it again, in fact, if Tianjianzong built the main altar and the treasure in one place, then the map would be of no use. Difficult to fight with four hands, it must be impossible to defend against.

When Yuhui and her party finally came to the valley basin marked on the map after half a month, they were suddenly dumbfounded.The mountains outside the basin are no different from the surrounding mountains. They are neither high nor short and inconspicuous. The vegetation on the slopes and at the foot of the mountains belongs to the normal growth of the dry climate in the northern inland.But the basin surrounded by mountains is much wetter than the outside, and there is a deep crack in the middle that seems to be split into the ground by a ghost axe.With cracks as the origin, plants growing from the inside out are more similar to the state of the original rainforest.It can be said that an abnormal microclimate has formed inside the entire basin.

An ancient boundary marker was erected at the only mountain pass outside the basin, warning those who came that the basin was full of miasma and poison, and ordinary people would never return.

The ghost mother-in-law has superb martial arts skills, surveyed on the top of the mountain, and went a little deeper into the valley, and came to a conclusion that the inside of the basin is indeed full of miasma and poison, and the treasure should be under that crack.But miasma poison is not impossible to control, it needs a special herbal medicine, and this kind of herbal medicine can only grow in the forbidden area of ​​Youshan Tianjianzong main altar.

Now Yu Hui finally understands why the main altar of the Heavenly Sword Sect is located on the Youshan Mountain. As long as you keep an eye on this special herb, it is equivalent to controlling the key to the location of the treasure.However, such secrets have never been recorded on paper. The basin must be found first according to the treasure map, and then combined with other clues and extensive knowledge to find the herbal medicine to restrain the miasma poison.

The preliminary exploration came to an end, and the group retreated to a small town not far from the valley.

This town is called Shoushanying. It is backed by mountains and facing water. A few miles to the west is the desert. To the east, there are mostly flat roads leading directly to the Youshan area. Great supply point.It is said that 200 years ago, Shoushanying was a small mountain village with less than a dozen families. Later, a large number of residents moved in from nowhere, and they multiplied and took root with the villagers.Among these foreign visitors are many skilled craftsmen, and some who can read and write are passed down from generation to generation, making this small mountain village develop day by day, and gradually become a town with [-] households that is basically self-sufficient.

Yu Hui rented a small courtyard near the town and settled down temporarily.

Recently, because the war between Xuan Guo and Hua Guo was in full swing, there were quite a few people who fled from the south or moved their families to the north.It is not uncommon for small and medium wealthy households to have small groups of about ten people like Yuhui and his party.Some families have no relatives and friends in the north to go to, and the money is not very rich, so they find a relatively remote and quiet town to temporarily settle down, and then move back to their original place after avoiding the disaster of war; Fearing that the flames of war would spread, he ran from the city to the remote countryside to hide.

Yu Hui's pseudonym Qin Yue and A Li claimed to be husband and wife, and they came here from the war in Qishui area in the south.The people in the town saw that they were young and kind, spoke kindly, brought not many people, and looked harmless, so they didn't question them too much.They rented a house to live in, and they said that they would stay at home if they had nothing to do, and they would not do business or grab business. They had almost no influence on the people in the town and were quickly ignored.

The tedious matters such as renting a house, preparing daily necessities, etc. were all taken care of by Yuhui. Regardless of the world, the ghost mother-in-law went to the valley to investigate again during the few days when she settled down.On the night of the third day, when the ghost mother-in-law returned, Yu Hui took A Li and Sun Yuxian to sit around the tea stove in the main hall of the newly rented small courtyard, lighting up the lamps and talking at night.Ying Yang Ying Liu and four guards patrolled the front and back of the house.

The ghost mother-in-law took a sip of tea, and said in a deep voice: "Yue'er, it seems that I have to go to the forbidden area of ​​Tianjianzong in Youshan to get that kind of herbal medicine, so that we can safely enter the valley here. You stay here Wait for me, within ten days, I will give you a letter of approval if you succeed."

On the way, Yuhui told the ghost mother-in-law about the uncle ghost, but the ghost mother-in-law took the task assigned by the emperor as the most important thing, and said that she would go to Youshan to find the uncle ghost after finishing her errands.This is good, I have to go to Youshan to steal the spirit grass first.Yu Hui smiled and said: "Senior Ghost Granny, you just happened to drop by and pick up Senior Ghost Uncle together, so that the husband and wife can reunite and be happy."

The ghost old woman blushed and pretended to be serious: "I don't want to talk about those private things. I went to the main altar of the Heavenly Sword Sect when I was young. When you went there three years ago, you also came to the edge of the forbidden area. Tell me about the terrain carefully." As for the layout, let me hear if there are any changes and prepare for it.”

Yu Hui and A Li were prisoners in the main altar of the Heavenly Sword Sect at the beginning, but later they escaped in vain. The swords and swords didn't care about the terrain and environment, so it didn't help the ghost mother much.

Yuhui suggested: "Senior ghost mother-in-law, why don't you take one or two people with you. I think Sister Sun is good at martial arts, and she is very alert. Taking her there will help me a lot."

Considering many factors, Sun Yuxian pretended to be a coward and declined, "I heard that everyone in the Heavenly Sword Sect is very strong in martial arts. I'm afraid it's not easy to break into the forbidden area, right? I don't dare to go."

The ghost mother-in-law glared at Sun Yuxian, and said angrily: "I heard people in the army say that you are greedy for life and fear of death, and you are as cowardly as a mouse. A waste is not as brave as a man."

Sun Yuxian shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "I have a high hall above me, and a small family below me. When I am away from home, in the chaos of war, of course I have to cherish my life. If I hadn't been tricked into thinking that this errand is safer than fighting, I would not Dare to come."

Before Yuhui knew Sun Yuxian's real identity, she would only think that she was so cute and silly when she heard her talk like this, but now she couldn't help secretly admiring Sun Yuxian's acting skills, for being able to play out such a weak temperament Lively and vivid, no brains pretending not to be.It seems that Sun Yuxian does not intend to go with the ghost mother-in-law.

The ghost mother-in-law said solemnly: "Yue'er, I've always been used to being alone, so I don't want to bring others with me. If I do, I can't bring people who are worthless to fear death. Besides, you should keep more people around you to protect you, so that no criminals will take the opportunity to rob you." .”

Yuhui joked with deep meaning: "Senior ghost mother-in-law, you are an imperial envoy sent by the sage, are you not afraid that we will sneak away while you are not around?"

In fact, Yuhui had planned before that she would run away without finding the treasure.But that day in the carriage, Yuhui's courtship was rejected by Ali, which made her heartbroken and at the same time realized a problem.Maybe there is really a panacea in the treasure, she must respect Ali's wishes and try to be considerate of him.She can't force him, and she expects a miracle.At this moment, she had given up the idea of ​​taking advantage of the opportunity to run away, so she made an excuse to make a joke, test the position and attitude of the ghost mother-in-law, and see why the ghost mother-in-law could walk with her.

The ghost mother-in-law stared at Yuhui's clear eyes for a long while, and said through voice transmission: "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by you, I was cheated by your mother once back then, and I'm still old now. I have to sacrifice my life for the Holy One. But I believe in you, and in the woman that the child in Shishui fell in love with. When he came out this time, he asked me to do the third thing for him, which is to protect your life until you return to him safely .If you sneak away, you will tear down my platform and hit me in the face, and I will go all over the world to catch you and bring you back to him."

After saying this, the ghost mother-in-law let go of her voice and said: "Yeah, it's really difficult for you to desert while I'm away. Yue'er, let your A Li go with me, he is good at martial arts, he is good-looking and obedient .”

Yu Hui understood that Grandma Gui valued the entrustment of Passing Water more, she felt relieved, and objected coquettishly: "No, A Li's injury has just recovered a little bit, and going to the forbidden area of ​​the Heavenly Sword Sect to steal something is so dangerous, I'm not going to take it." I can’t bear to let Ali go.”

The ghost mother-in-law retreated and said: "Then you can lend me a shadow guard. You said that your two shadow guards are familiar with the situation in the Youshan area. Don't worry, I will not let them take risks. In case, there are always multiple people who can pass the message."

Yuhui also had this level of worry, and asked Yingyang Yingliu for her opinion in private, and Yingyang volunteered to go to Youshan with the ghost mother-in-law.The rest of the people stayed in Shoushanying Town for the time being to wait for the news.
