Chapter 71 Praying Mantis Catching Cicadas(1/2)
Chapter 71 The mantis stalks the cicada
This Wuliangjian Lake is a mountain spring lake formed by the accumulation of water under the waterfall in the mountain. Although the water quality is clear and clean, there are green algae at the bottom and on the mountain walls.
Against the background of these green algae, the entire lake looks like a patch of green. It looks nice at first glance, but once you dive into it, you can't tell the direction at all.
As a figure leaped into the air, a woman's scream could not help but echo in the forest.
After Bao Shi Gan gave birth to her daughter, she was quite gentle and quiet like a woman.
At this moment, I couldn't help but scream out in surprise. I never expected that Chen Xuan would be so bold.
He jumped directly in the air, from the cliff, and flew down the waterfall wall without giving her any time to react.
Just when Gan Baobao was so frightened that his face turned pale and he could hardly speak, Chen Xuan looked calm and jumped into the pool under the waterfall with a "bang" in a few leaps.
Then there was only a "crash" sound, and the two of them emerged from the pool, frightening Gan Baobao again.
Only then did Chen Xuan look up at the cliff waterfall and asked casually.
"Mrs. Zhong, are you okay?"
"..."
Gan Baobao was so frightened that he could not speak. He just hugged Chen Xuan subconsciously, looking pitiful.
In fact, it's no wonder that she was so scared. Who made Chen Xuan think that he was looking for poisonous weeds at the same time, but he jumped off the cliff after a few ups and downs.
Gan Baobao thought he was seeking death intentionally.
Unexpectedly, he jumped down from the sheer cliff of several hundred feet with the help of a few ups and downs.
"Isn't it here?"
Compared to Gan Baobao's frightened state, Chen Xuan looked around and thought to himself.
"The Infinite Jade is on the mountain wall behind the Jianhu Palace. The corresponding location should be around here. It seems that we will have to spend a lot of time looking for it."
The blessed land of Langhuan was originally Duan Yu's opportunity, and if Chen Xuan came to seize this luck now, it would naturally not be possible for everything to go smoothly.
Just as he was thinking secretly, Gan Baobao beside him seemed to realize something and said anxiously.
"Chen Shaoxia, don't drown my daughter's little pet!"
Only then did Chen Xuan react and let go of the lightning ferret.
The little thing seemed to be afraid of him and jumped into Gan Baobao's arms.
Chen Xuan looked at its clever movements and raised the corner of his mouth slightly. He thought it was funny, but when he glanced at it, he saw the gray-white mink heading straight for Gan Baobao's chest.
The two of them fell into the valley pool. The light green shirt on Gan Baobao's body was soaked in the pool, and the fat and white outline was faintly revealed.
However, the little ferret seemed to be frightened by the sound of Chen Xuanfei falling off the cliff, and kept tugging in Gan Baobao's arms.
Gan Baobao didn't pay much attention at first, but when he was about to talk to Chen Xuan, he noticed something strange in his eyes. When he looked down, he felt embarrassed and hurriedly turned around to avoid it.
Seeing her behavior, Chen Xuan also realized that he was too blatant, so he pretended to cough lightly and deliberately changed the subject.
"Mrs. Zhong, I'm going to find a way out."
"...Wait a minute!"
"Mrs. Zhong, do you have anything else to do?"
"What do you mean by bringing me down and then leaving me behind?"
Gan Baobao looked at him with a look of anger and resentment, and seemed to blame him with his words.
The valley in the mountains is vast, quiet and overgrown with weeds. It would take a lot of effort to find the blessed land of Langhuan.
Chen Xuan originally thought that the terrain was too rough to take her away.
Unexpectedly, Gan Baobao would blame him now. In this case, he couldn't shirk it, so he just waved her ashore.
Gan Baobao originally had some martial arts skills, but the valley was rugged with rocks.
Even though she knew some martial arts, she was still a daughter. She sprained her foot after only two steps with the lightning ferret in her arms, and she couldn't walk without a limp.
Chen Xuan saw that it was getting late, and originally wanted to find Langhuan Paradise as soon as possible, and then go back to find Dai Qisi.
Unexpectedly, this baby Gan was holding him back. He couldn't care less about his previous embarrassment and directly extended his hand.
"Mrs. Zhong, the rocks here are so rugged that it's hard to get down. I think it's better for me to carry you."
"Chen Shaoxia is determined. I can leave by myself."
"Madam, please rest assured. Although I, Mr. Chen, am not a disciple of a famous family, I still know the etiquette of being a human being. Now I just don't want to sleep in the wilderness with my madam."
"..."
Hearing this, Gan Baobao glanced at Chen Xuan and felt that since his martial arts skills were so advanced, he must be a person of some status. He hesitated for a while but nodded in agreement.
Even so, when Chen Xuanzhen picked her up by the waist, the feeling was completely different.
When she was in Jianhu Palace before, she only thought of it as leading the way for Chen Xuan.
Now she was in his arms, especially because he had such a majestic and strong masculinity, which was a great touch for her age.
She was so guilty that she didn't dare to raise her head, she just held the gray ferret in her arms.
Chen Xuan had no intention of taking advantage of others. He was now focused on finding the blessed land of Langhuan of the Xiaoyao Sect.
Immediately he jumped up and rushed towards the depths of the valley.
But he didn't notice that there was a familiar figure among the weeds and bushes in the valley, watching him jump away with Baby Gan in his arms.
"Chen, you are really good!"
In the bushes, Dai Qisi clenched her silver teeth, and there was unspeakable hatred in her beautiful eyes.
She used to be known as Granny Jinhua. In her early years, she studied a lot of pharmacology in order to treat her own cold qi stagnation.
Indeed, as Chen Xuan thought, he came all the way to Wuliang Mountain just to find poisonous weeds and prepare poison to deal with the three Persian envoys.
Unexpectedly, after she left without saying goodbye, she was chased by Chen Xuan halfway. Not only did she not help her at all, but she also ate a lot of tofu from her.
Dai Qisi felt angry and resentful, mixed with some inexplicable emotions.
Unexpectedly, she had only been away for a few days, and Chen Xuan was surrounded by new people instead of old ones. Moreover, judging from the dress of the woman, she was also a woman in her thirties.
"What a thief! You are really disgusting!"
Dai Qisi only thought that Chen Xuan was good at this, and suddenly felt very angry.
In anger, she was actually curious about why Chen Xuan came to this hidden valley in Wuliang Mountain, so she followed him there quietly.
The other side.
Chen Xuan didn't know that Dai Qisi, whom he longed for, was right under his nose.
He used the secret of lightness to fly back and forth in the valley.
With his powerful internal strength, he could hardly step on the leaves without leaving a trace, and quickly inspected most of the valley.
At first, Gan Baobao thought he was looking for the dead sword grass.
At this moment, seeing that he was just giving a cursory glance around, I vaguely realized that he seemed to have another purpose, so I asked tentatively.
"Chen Shaoxia, what are you looking for?"
"..."
Chen Xuan remained silent, not wanting to answer.
But then I thought about it, Gan Baobao has been living in Wuliang Mountain, so he should be more familiar with these places.
"Mrs. Zhong, have you ever been to the valley below Jianhu Palace?"
"The mountains here are so steep, how could I have ever been here?"
"Yeah?"
Chen Xuan sighed secretly, and just when he thought he was being whimsical, Gan Baobao said something shocking.
"But I once collected some medicine on the mountain wall, and I have been to the area a few times."
"Then are there any hidden mountains and valleys around here?"
Facing his questioning, Gan Baobao shook his head, obviously not understanding the matter.
When Chen Xuan saw this, he didn't want to ask too many questions. He just thought that he was not lucky enough to find the legendary Langhuan blessed land.
Seeing how frustrated he was, Gan Baobao suggested.
"If you want to find a hidden valley, it's best to follow the stream to the east. The mountains there are steep and clouds accumulate all year round. Not to mention ordinary mountain woodcutter, even some martial arts masters find it difficult to set foot in it."
"East?"
Chen Xuan nodded when he heard this, and flew into the clouds with Baobao Gan.
Following the sound of the water in Jianhu Lake, he flew over and looked down, and in a blink of an eye he actually discovered a cave covered by weeds and branches.
"This is it!"
He looked up and saw that this place corresponded to the Jianhu cliff above. If he fell from above, he could fall into the cave.
To be continued...
