Uchiha's self-cultivation

Chapter 16
Early the next morning, Chen Yulou and Luo Laowai gathered the crowd to swear an oath in the school grounds.

Not long after Lu Yan got up, he didn't approach them. He nodded to them as a greeting, and stood in the distance watching Chen Yulou's performance.

Chen Yulou was dressed in a white long gown, held a folding fan, and had eyes. He had a refined demeanor, like a teacher.

Luo Laowai was still wearing his military uniform, with his collar open, and he stood staggeringly, looking like a bandit.

Standing on the stage, Chen Yulou looked at the brethren who were massed in darkness below, without any stage fright, walked a few steps on the stage, first turned to Luo Laowai who was sitting on the chair and asked, "Would Luo Shuai want you?" Don't you want to say a few words first?"

Although Luo Laowai didn't have stage fright, he didn't have much culture in his belly, so he dared to take this blame, shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother, you are the boss, you talk, we will listen."

Chen Yulou nodded, turned around and looked at the brothers below.

"Okay, then I'll say a few words"

Chen Yulou closed the folding fan in his hands, put it behind his back, and held his head high: "Brothers, I Xieling faction started from Chimei, and since I beat my ancestors, I have done the act of distributing the emperor's treasure to the poor people."

"In today's world, the people's livelihood is declining, and the people are suffering unspeakably. Most of my brothers in Xiling are from poor backgrounds, so we should contribute a little to this troubled world."

"Today there is a treasure land in the west of Hunan, which contains countless gold and jade, all of which are the blood and sweat of the common people. We can just emulate Chimei and inherit the precepts of our ancestors."

"And cooperate with Luo Shuai to take treasures from the mountains to help the common people in troubled times."

The bandits in Xiling below were all from poor backgrounds and had little education, so they couldn't resist Chen Yulou's eloquence, they all shouted with enthusiasm in unison.

"Take treasures, benefit the common people"

"Take treasures, benefit the common people"

Seeing that the morale has been mobilized, Chen Yulou smiled complacently, turned around and said: "Red girl, Kunlun, Huamaguai, I plan to take the three of you to the nearby Miao Village to inquire first, and the large troops will be escorted first." After that, be on standby at any time."

"Sure, buddy, I'll go with you"

Luo Laowai is addicted to tomb robbery and eager to make a fortune, so he also plans to follow him into the mountains to step on the plate.

"Come on, brother Lu, let's discuss the matter of entering the mountain together."

Chen Yulou nodded, calling for Lu Yan to come over and plot together.

After breakfast, Lu Yan, Chen Yulou and others disguised themselves as merchants and shopkeepers entering the mountain.

The terrain of the Mengdong River Basin in Western Hunan is complicated, the mountain roads are rugged and difficult, the population has been sparse since ancient times, the government's ability to govern is weak, and banditry is serious.

Therefore, most of the local Yizhai people are very xenophobic. If they don't pretend to be merchants, they may cause troubles.

Laoxiong Ridge by the Mengdong River is a large area of ​​lofty mountains with high mountains and dense forests. Although Lu Yan and Chen Yulou and his party have good feet, walking is not smooth.

After walking and stopping a few times, I finally reached the South Village on the mountain ahead.

This stockade is located between strange peaks and emerald valleys, and the surrounding scenery is as beautiful as a landscape painting.

After entering the stockade, you will find a group of stilted buildings arranged in sequence, and each stilted building is carved with wood carvings of black birds, which reveals a little strangeness in the mystery.

The local folk customs are simple and honest, Lu Yan and others pretended to be merchants and shopkeepers, and successfully got away with it.

Since most of the mountain people like to barter, from time to time, some mountain people came to Lu Yan, Chen Yulou and others with various mountain goods to exchange salt, needles, thread, brains and other odds and ends.

Chen Yulou planned carefully in advance, and the things he brought were all the urgent needs of the mountain people, and because he was not for entering the mountain for business, he was very generous, so everyone quickly won the favor of the mountain people.

Chen Yulou took advantage of the tomb-robbing technique of "Looking, Hearing, Asking, and Cutting" under the method of "asking" in the four methods, and asked the local mountain people routinely, and sure enough, he asked some clues from the mountain people without any effort.

Near Laoxiongling, there is a strange peak named Pingshan, which is shaped like a bottle falling from the sky, and there are many exotic flowers and plants in the mountain.

Since the Qin and Han dynasties, emperors of various dynasties liked to send warlocks to Pingshan to refine the elixir of immortality, and built Taoist temples in the caves, filling them with rare treasures from all walks of life, so as to seek medicine from immortals.

After thousands of years, the caves in Pingshan have already been filled with palaces and palaces, and the buildings and palaces are even better than the world.

It is a pity that when the Yuan Dynasty destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty, the Dong people could not bear the tyranny and gathered a crowd to rebel. Yuan soldiers and Yuan generals massacred the Dong people in Laoxiongling, almost killing all the Dong people in each cave.

However, due to the hot and humid environment in the mountains, poisonous insects and beasts were rampant, the Yuan soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and even the general who commanded the troops died of illness in the mountains.

In order to suppress the cave dwellers and prevent them from rebelling, the people of the Yuan Dynasty used Pingshan as a tomb to bury the fallen soldiers, searched for all the rare and rare treasures in the mountain, and used them as burial artifacts, and even massacred the remaining cave dwellers. Funeral.

When Luo Laowai heard that there were countless rare and rare treasures in the tomb, his heart had already become itchy. If Chen Yulou hadn't been pulling him aside, he might have missed his feet in front of the mountain people.

When Chen Yulou found out clearly, the sky had already darkened, but because bandits and thieves have been making too much noise in recent years, the village has never allowed outsiders to stay overnight, so Lu Yan, Chen Yulou and others had to leave the village in a hurry.

Along the way, Luo Laowai was still cursing, thinking that he had never seen such a troublesome person who did not give him face. If Chen Yulou hadn't stopped him, he would have pulled out his gun long ago.

"Luo Shuai, why do you have to get angry with a group of mountain people. I heard that there is a coffin for mortuary in front, so we will go there to deal with it overnight."

"Go to the deep mountains tomorrow morning. Go and see the situation on Pingshan Mountain, and see if the ancient tomb is going to work."

Chen Yulou walked in front, looking at Luo Laowai who was still muttering non-stop, it was a little funny, so he comforted him.

Among the crowd, Lu Yan was used to seeing dead people in the world of wizards and Naruto, and he didn't shy away from it. Chen Yulou and others often went to the grave, and they were all bold, and they didn't care about spending the night in Yizhuang.

The group made up their minds and found Yizhuang until it was completely dark.

This Yizhuang seems to be rebuilt from the mountain temple. It is not small in scale, but it has not been repaired for a long time. It is a bit dilapidated, and half of the front hall has collapsed.

At this time, under the cold moon and cold stars, swarms of bats were flying around in mid-air, and the painted temple gate was blown by the mountain wind, and it creaked.

There was no one in the barren mountain and wild temple in the middle of the night. Although Chen Yulou and the others were daring people, they couldn't help but feel a little drummed in their hearts. Chen Yulou walked up to Lu Yan and whispered: "Brother Lu, if there are any mountain spirits and ghosts later, I will rely on you more."

On the other side, Luo Laowai also came over and said with a low voice, "I think this place is very infiltrated. Brother Lu, if something ghostly happens, my old Luo's life depends on you."

Lu Yan looked at the two with a smile, and comforted him, "Don't worry, I've already checked it out. There's nothing ghostly about it, and it's very clean."

After finishing speaking, Lu Yan pushed open the gate of Yizhuang and walked inside.
