To cultivate immortality, one must have good luck

Chapter 111 Dry Well
That night.

Ten miles away from the town on the mountain road, a clearing was cleared out of an area where fallen leaves accumulated in the birch forest, and a bright bonfire was lit.

Kong and Zhen were sitting around the bonfire. The flames were beating, and the red light shone on Kong Zhen's pale face.

Feng An held a tree branch in his hand and put a pheasant that he had caught from nowhere on the fire to roast.

The chicken was roasted to a golden brown, and the alluring aroma of the meat wafted through the birch forest.

Feng An didn't get anything to eat in town today. He was so greedy that he couldn't help himself and shot a pheasant and roasted it himself.

Then he filled two bowls of the fine wine he brought from the sect. The pheasant was quite pleasant to go with the wine.

Kong Ji's thoughts were obviously not on the roast chicken. He was looking at the bonfire, with the shadow of the flame reflected in his pupils.

He was still thinking about the sudden incident where the moon wheel seal appeared on its own before he left the small town inn, and then appeared briefly.

That was something that had never happened to me after practicing the Moon Wheel Seal.

It was as if something was approaching him, and it was sensed by the moon wheel seal, and then automatically activated.

Strange to say, with Kong Ji's current cultivation and perception, it is impossible for anyone to approach him without being discovered while ascending the wheel.

"There must be something weird in that town." Kong Ji secretly thought, and then looked at Feng An.

The latter came out with me at that time, why was he okay?

In other words, Feng An has already been tricked, but he and Feng An did not notice it.

Just as Feng An described when he arrived, the scene he experienced 20 years ago.

The companion who came with him was attacked by unknown means and fell down silently.

"Such a weird attack method is simply unheard of." Kong Ji rubbed his brows. The opportunity of this trip was far more troublesome than he imagined.

He is not afraid of a real fight with real swords and guns, but he is afraid of a guy like this who is secretly playing dirty tricks.

Of course, there is also good news.

After testing during the day, Kong Ji found that the Moon Wheel Seal he practiced seemed to have a certain resistance to that weird attack method.

It proved that it was impossible for him to fall quietly like Feng An's companions.

Then there is the little gain from that trip to the small town.

The man behind the scenes who was hiding behind the town did not show up directly. He attacked Kong Ji and the two, presumably because he was afraid of Kong Ji's strength.

It proves that its true level is actually not very high as expected.

Kong Xian estimated that its strength was around the seventh or eighth realm in the late stage of Yang Lun.

Definitely not reaching the Nine Realms.

If it had the strength of the Nine Realms, it would not be so cautious and take advantage of its geographical advantage.

Just show up and leave Kong and Zhen in the town forever.

"That's good news." Kong Jiang thought silently.

Feng An's roast chicken was almost done, so he separated out two chicken legs and handed them to Kong Ji.

Then he held a whole chicken in his arms, drank fine wine, and just feasted without being affected by the day's events.

It's not that Feng An's perception has deteriorated, nor that his head suddenly has trouble functioning.

But he didn't sense the attack from the dark at all.

So I didn't think much about it.

Kong Ji held the chicken leg without moving, watching Feng An spit out a whole chicken into his belly in just two mouthfuls, and then he spoke softly: "Brother Feng, you once said that you would report this matter to the sect. The sect also sent out The disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall came to check, but found nothing in the end, so we just let it go?"

"Yes, they did find nothing." When it came to business, Feng An's expression became solemn and he expressed his speculation.

"If this town is really the weird town in the story that Junior Brother Kong read in the book, it would be understandable that they can't find anything."

Kong Xian nodded, agreed with Feng An's words, and added: "If what is recorded in the book is correct, this town may be more dangerous than it was 20 years ago."

"There is also good news. When the two of us went in today, we did not encounter an ambush. It proves that that thing is still afraid of us." Feng An expressed a judgment that was quite consistent with Kong Xian's.

"Twenty years ago, I was attacked as soon as I came here."

As he said that, Feng An looked at Kong Zhen. Of course, the person that the monster was afraid of could not be him.

It was Kong Ji who came with him.

"Senior Brother Feng means that we still have to find it." Kong Jiang smiled. In fact, he also had the same idea.

Although the town is dangerous, it is not out of control.

With his combat power now that he has understood the 'shi', and has mastered Feng Tao Burying Snow, as long as he doesn't meet a strong person in the Ascension Wheel Realm, no one in the Yanglun Ninth Realm can even think of keeping him.

There is absolutely no problem with safety.

However, Kong Xian is worried that it may be difficult to take care of Feng An when encountering dangerous situations.

So he expressed his worries very frankly.

Feng An waved his hand indifferently and responded in a low voice: "This has been a knot in my mind for 20 years. Every night, the scene of that day is in my mind. If I don't put an end to it, I'm afraid there will be no hope of ascending to the wheel in this life."

"Whether it's for revenge or to get rid of inner demons, I have to go on this trip. Junior Brother Kong doesn't have to worry about me."

Feng An has been cautious for 20 years because of this incident.

In the end, because of this incident, I threw the caution of the past 20 years behind me.Of course, there is also the reason for Kong's strength as the backing.

He would never dare to come here alone.

"Okay! Let's go tonight." Seeing Feng An's determination, Kong Zhi didn't persuade him any more, and then added: "When encountering an irresistible crisis, Senior Brother Feng can evacuate first. I can protect myself. It’s easier for people to escape.”

"Okay!" Feng An responded cheerfully.

The bright moon is high, the moon is dark and the wind is high.

Two figures, Kong Xian and Feng An, one behind the other, slowly groped towards the town from outside the town.

During this process, Feng An recited all the details he saw 20 years ago several times.

"There is a dry well behind the town. When we were passing by that dry well, we were suddenly attacked by the monster."

"I have carefully analyzed many clues over the years. I am sure that the guy came out of the well."

"Didn't the disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall who came back then explore the dry well?" Kong Jiang asked carefully about some details.

"I went down there, and they said it was just an ordinary dry well, and they didn't find anything strange." Feng An pursed his lips, and replied with some reluctance: "It's not because the fellow students who died were not high in cultivation. , not taken seriously by the sect. So among the people who went to the Law Enforcement Hall, the one with the highest strength was Yang Lun Ba Jing, what could he see."

"Okay, let's go take a look at the dry well first." Kong Xian chose to trust Feng An's judgment and make his priority choice.

The town was eerily quiet at night.

Every door is closed, and there is no light.

After Kong and Zhen entered the town, they didn't even hear the crowing of cocks or the barking of dogs. They were two extremes from the fireworks they saw during the day.

I don’t know if it’s because of too much silence, but there’s a weird atmosphere lingering in the town.

It doesn't look like a small town in the mortal world.

This made Kong Xian even more certain that this town was the same as the town in the story recorded in the book.

This also made Kong Ji and Feng An no longer willing to take the initiative to speak except for walking silently.

After tea time.

Kong Ji followed Feng An around the town, and finally came to the location of the dry well he mentioned.

It was a place behind the town, close to the wilderness.

There is a temple that looks to be quite old.

I don’t know which immortal is enshrined in the temple. Because it has been in disrepair for a long time, the statues in the temple have cracked.

The futons in the temple were in disgraceful tatters, and the ground was covered in dust.

When Kong Xian and Feng An stepped into the temple ground, they left a series of clear footprints on the ground.

The dry well is in the backyard of the temple.

Kong Zhi first cautiously scanned the surrounding area, and after confirming that there was no danger, he cautiously moved forward.

His eyes followed the mouth of the well and looked towards the bottom of the well.

Even though his eyes were blessed with an eye-cleansing spell, they only felt pitch black and couldn't see clearly what was going on inside.

It was like there was a piece of black cloth covering the lower part.

Kong Zhi had to look away and whispered to Feng An: "No, you can't see clearly what's going on inside from the outside. You have to go down."

"I'll go down with you." Feng An became more courageous as his cultivation level improved, and his tone showed that he really wanted to go on.

Kong Xian shook his head and refused.

He moved his eyes, observing the surroundings and analyzing the situation: "Senior Brother Feng, you have to guard this place for me. This is the only escape entrance. If it blocks it, I may be in trouble."

What Kong Zhen said was that it was very troublesome, not that he couldn't get out at all. In the worst case scenario, he could forcefully punch a hole in the ground and break through.

But this place may be the burial place of the Yanglun realm monks recorded on the cloud pattern stele.

Maybe there is no formation reinforcement below.

If you really encounter that kind of situation, I'm afraid it won't be that easy to break through.

Feng An thought it made sense, so he didn't insist. He said to Kong Xian very cautiously: "Then be careful. Don't think about fighting head-on when you are in danger. The main thing is to save your life."

"Don't worry, so many strong winds and waves have come here." Kong Zhi smiled softly and took out the bronze halberd from the storage bag.

In a small environment, the power of bows and arrows will be greatly limited.

The war halberd is the safest.

Then he made another seal, and the Cold Clothes Sacrifice Snow Technique immediately turned into a layer of gauze, wrapping his whole body.

After doing all this, he took a deep breath and jumped down into the dry well under Feng An's gaze.

On the well, the lingering sound of Kong Jiang's words before leaving echoed.

"Senior Brother Feng, if something happens up there, shout into the well immediately. I will come out immediately if you hear it."

After the words fell, Kong Jin's figure, wrapped in cold clothes and the snow technique, had disappeared into the darkness of the dry well.

This dry well is like a huge mouth, swallowing up the wormwood in one bite.
