Tomb Robber: I, Chen Yulou, am dedicated to cultivating immortality!

Chapter 80 Shijun Mountain, Golden Crow Furnace, Hundred-foot Earth Dragon (please vote for me)

Shijun Mountain.

It is located in the suburbs of Xiangyin, bordering Yueyang.

However, in the first year of the Republic of China, Xiangyin was still under the Changsha Prefecture of Changbaodao Road. In the third year of the Republic of China, it was changed to Xiangjiang Road.

Coupled with these years of war and chaos.

There has never been a clear geographical distinction.

For ordinary people, everything from the north to Baini Lake belongs to Xiangyin.

And Shijun Mountain is on the bank of the big lake and the river.

At this moment, the night is getting darker. Different from the bright lights and the bustling atmosphere of Changsheng Tower, a wooden boat on the river is slowly approaching the edge of Shijun Mountain.

There was only a dim wind lantern hanging on the side of the ship.

The light and fire flickered.

More than ten figures were reflected.

All of them were dusty and tired, and their faces could not hide their fatigue.

There was only one person at the front. He was tall, wearing a short jacket, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle under his thick eyebrows.

"Shopkeeper Li, that's Shi Junshan."

"If you go any further, you have to enter the realm of Yueyang."

Suddenly, someone spoke softly.

Li Shuguo, who was staring at the main peak of Shijun Mountain shrouded in the night, in a daze, did not look back, but just let out a hum.

Depart from Chenjiazhuang to hunt for fire.

In the blink of an eye, two days have passed.

It doesn't seem like a long time, but for him, he can't waste a single second.

In two days, he took about twenty Chen family members with him and traveled almost all the mountains in Xiangyin.

Unfortunately, nothing was found.

He had a strong body and could barely hold on, but those guys were very tired.

All the way over the mountains and ridges, I almost never closed my eyes.

Li Shuguo couldn't understand the meaning of his words.

After passing Shijun Mountain, if you still can't find it, you have to consider whether to go back to recover, or choose to go to Fengfeng Mountain to refine weapons.

wow-

Just thinking about it.

The big ship under me finally docked.

Li Shuguo didn't think much and waved his hand, "Brothers, get off the boat and try to finish your work as soon as possible."

Hearing this, a group of guys could only cheer up no matter how tired they were.

They each picked up torches and weapons and jumped off the ship one after another.

Before coming, Uncle Yu repeatedly warned me.

The search for earthly fire was personally ordered by the shopkeeper.

If this thing is done well, the shopkeeper will never hesitate to reward him with his magnanimity.

But if it is not completed, it will still be delayed.

If I were kicked out by then, I wouldn’t know where to cry.

With his status as Zhuang Ding, he had no worries about food and drink. In today's world, it would be extremely difficult to find such a job.

Wait for everyone to get off the boat one by one.

Li Shuguo then picked up the bamboo basket beside him and landed it on the stone beach.

Facing the night wind blowing from the river.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his sleepiness, and strode towards the mountains.

A group of people followed closely behind, holding wind lanterns and walking through the dense forest like a fire dragon walking through water.

anyway.

Whether it is success or failure, there will be a result after tonight.

Waited halfway up the mountain.

Li Shuguo put down his backpack and pulled out a stove-like utensil.

The thing is not big.

It's about the size of a palm.

Standing on three legs, it looks like a strange bird flapping its wings.

The Golden Crow, the sun bird in myths and legends, is also a folk symbol of fire.

The utensils are made of gold and copper.

It also vaguely combines with the fire and metal in the five elements.

For this reason, this thing is called the Golden Crow Furnace, which was used by geomancers of Feng Shui Kanyu in the past to find earth fire.

The stove in his hand was inherited from his family.

When his family went south, my father used it to discover a natural fire pit in Yuhua Mountain, and then decided to stop there. Twenty years later, Honeycomb Mountain once again became famous in the world.

This time to find earth fire for Chen Yulou.

Li Shuguo specially brought it out.

See him take out the stove.

The group of guys behind him weren't too surprised. They were used to it.

It's quite mysterious.

But the stove never turned on, and I don't know if it works properly.

Just when everyone was looking around.

A slight buzzing sound suddenly sounded.

Then, they saw a flame igniting out of thin air in the copper furnace Li Shuguo held in his hand.

The mountain wind howled by.

But it can't be blown out.

On the contrary, there is a tendency for the fever to become more and more prosperous.

"This……"

"What's going on? Why did you suddenly have a fever?"

"Is it the ground fire that shopkeeper Li mentioned?"

"I do not know."

The group of people were all attracted by the fire in the stove, their faces full of surprise.

Although Li Shuguo had said once before that the furnace was used for surveying underground fires, no one had ever seen it with his own eyes.

Now, this sudden fire caught them off guard.

But it's different from the confused guy.

At this moment, under the firelight, Li Shuguo's tense face suddenly became filled with surprise.

His eyes were burning and his lips were trembling slightly.

"There is."

"What?"

"What's up?"

Listening to him muttering to himself, the guys next to him didn't dare to argue anymore. They all held their breath and didn't dare to breathe loudly for fear of disturbing him.

"The earth fire is here!"

Li Shuguo breathed out.

He raised his head and grinned.

After searching for two full days, almost without sleep, the Golden Crow Furnace finally responded.

Before setting off, he specially studied the direction of the Xiangyin Mountains.

The highest point is naturally Qingshan where Changsheng Mountain is located.

Then there are Etou Mountain, Hubi Mountain and Baiya Mountain where Huodong Temple is located, which can be regarded as big mountains.

As for the hills, there are even more.

According to past experience, underground fire often exists in high mountains.

That's why he set his sights on Qingshan and Etou Mountain first.

But after two days in a row, I had traveled almost all the way, but I had gained nothing.

There are still Chen family guys following him.

In the name of Changsheng Mountain.

Otherwise, if he ran away like this, he would have been captured by the bandit warlords who dominated the mountain.

Unexpectedly, this little-known Shijun Mountain had an underground fire hidden in it.

"Earthfire!"

"Shopkeeper Li, are you kidding me?"

"Yeah, it doesn't look like there's fire on this hilltop."

"This is a major matter ordered by the master of the family, and there is no room for sloppiness."

Upon hearing this answer, the eyes of a group of guys lit up.

But he didn’t dare to confirm completely, so he asked repeatedly.

"Go ahead and put your heart back in your stomach."

"This stove is an old item passed down from my great-grandfather's generation. It was obtained from an earth energy master in the past. It is the most sensitive to earth energy."

Seeing their confused look.

Li Shuguo smiled.

When he talked about the origin of the stove, his face was full of pride.

Earth masters can sense the movement of earth energy, survey the geographical situation of mountains and rivers, and even suppress dragon veins.

How can those deceitful Feng Shui masters in the world today compare?

"Then... Shopkeeper Li, where is the ground fire?"

See how confident he is.

A group of people didn't have the slightest doubt, and joy flooded their faces.

"Yes, if you find the ground fire, you can return to Zhuangzi to pay your respects to the master of the family as soon as possible."

"Shopkeeper Li, don't delay, we'd better find it as soon as possible. Everyone can rest assured, right?"

They were in an anxious mood, so why not Li Shuguo?

Even compared to these guys.

He wished he could set up a steel-making furnace one day earlier.

Great demon and fierce soldier.

A thing that only exists on the weapon spectrum.

If it succeeds, then the name of Honeycomb Mountain will definitely be able to recreate the glory of his ancestors in his hands.

wrong.

More than just a reappearance.

Even though my grandfather was admitted to the Military Academy, his greatest achievement in his life was to improve the matchlock gun, but he still talked about it until his death.

If he really made a demon weapon.

Gee, his name has to be in the top three in the Li family tree. The more he thought about it, the more excited Li Shuguo became. He was still a little bit sleepy. He carefully held the stove and followed the guidance, walking all the way to the depths of Shijun Mountain.

The guys are also exhausted.

After running for two days, I finally got some news.

Some people are holding wind lanterns, and some are cutting mountains with knives.

Although they seemed silent, their eyes were like fire, but their emotions were exposed.

Wait around the front mountain.

In the rugged and difficult-to-travel dense forest, the vision suddenly became clear.

The mountains and forests seemed to have been wiped off the ground.

Only large chunks of exposed rock remain.

"What's going on?"

"Shijunshan, Shijunshan, isn't this how it came about?"

"It's really weird. There are mountains and forests all the way, but when we get to the top, it's completely bare."

I looked around with the wind lantern.

A bunch of guys looked like they had seen a ghost.

On the other hand, Li Shuguo, who had been holding the stove, looked at the fire in the stove that was getting hotter and hotter, and seemed to have noticed something, and his heart was beating wildly with dissatisfaction.

There was no time to think too much.

The whole group quickly rushed to the top of the mountain.

His unusual behavior made everyone confused, but the search for Earth Fire was all tied to him alone.

Another guest invited by the shopkeeper from all the way.

No matter what happens, nothing can happen to Shopkeeper Li.

The group of people could no longer care about their surprise and quickly chased after him.

It took more than half a quarter of an hour before they finally caught up with the subtle fire in front of them.

Li Shuguo traveled all the way.

At this moment, he was standing between the cliffs, raising his eyes and looking down.

I don't know what I saw.

That silent face was full of joy.

Under him.

It is a cracked sinkhole that seems to cut off Shijun Mountain.

The night wind howled by, but it was different from the water vapor at the bottom of the mountain. Standing here, he only felt a fire coming towards his face.

It was as if, deep in the crack, there was a fire burning from the ground.

The guy behind him also noticed something was wrong.

They all ran up, stopped and looked down the mountain.

In the pitch-black sinkhole, streaks of fire emerged from the mist, reflecting the bottom of the mountain in fiery red.

"Earthfire!"

"What a fire!"

"God, this must have been burning for how many years."

A group of people exclaimed.

Some people even subconsciously stretched out their hands to catch the sparks swept up by the wind.

But as soon as it entered the palm, the sparks gradually extinguished.

There was only a handful of finely broken ashes left, still vaguely warm.

That is to say, Shijun Mountain is too high.

The peaks with bamboo shoots on all sides cover the firelight.

Otherwise, such an astonishing ground fire would have been discovered long ago.

But even so, looking at the fire at the bottom of the mountain, the group was still shocked beyond measure.

"Go down and take a look."

Compared to their exclamations, Li Shuguo was only a little more surprised.

Separated by hundreds of meters of cliffs, the fire was so fierce that it was many times stronger than the ground fire in Yuhua Mountain.

He was even a little envious.

If my father had taken a boat from this river to go south, would the current Fengwo Mountain have ended up in Shijun Mountain?

However, this thought only flashed through his mind.

Now is the time to think about this.

With the earth fire, he could settle down and set up a furnace and refine weapons as soon as possible.

"Yes, Shopkeeper Li."

"Shopkeeper Li, slow down."

Seeing him getting up and rushing down the cliff, a group of guys hurriedly stopped him.

"Shopkeeper Li, it's too dark today, so I'd better ask the brothers to go down and explore the road."

While talking, without waiting for him to refuse, several of the guys quickly took out ropes and centipede hanging ladders from their backpacks, hung the wind lanterns on their shoulders, and flew down the cliff.

See this scene.

Li Shuguo could only calm down.

At the same time, he was secretly amazed.

I have long heard that Chen Yulou, the leader of this generation of Xiling, is very knowledgeable in armor and weapons.

Integrate the advantages of other inversion sects.

Let Xiling develop to its peak.

Now it seems that we can get a glimpse of it from the centipede hanging on the mountain ladder.

The guys who came with me on this trip were all carefully selected by Uncle Yu.

All of them are agile and have the time and energy to climb mountains and down streams as fast as apes.

It only took less than ten minutes.

A loud arrow shot into the sky from below.

"coming."

"Shopkeeper Li, you can go down the mountain now."

Seeing the loud arrow rising through the clouds, the guys who were waiting above with Li Shuguo breathed a long sigh of relief.

"it is good!"

Li Shuguo grinned.

No more hesitation.

He put the Golden Crow Stove back into the basket on his back and hurried down the mountain along the centipede-hanging ladder.

On a cliff hundreds of meters away.

Lines of fire slowly floated.

By the time he was halfway through, the fire in the air already made him feel like he was standing outside a steel-making furnace, and beads of sweat were dripping down his forehead.

But he didn't feel any discomfort at all.

The smile on his face under the firelight grew stronger.

The tiger returns to the mountain and the dragon enters the sea. He, Li Shuguo, was born to make a living in the fire.

Braving the raging and manic fire.

Three steps followed by two steps.

Li Shuguo went all the way into the depths of the sinkhole. The guy who came down first couldn't stand the heat at all and hid aside, only daring to watch from a distance.

He didn't pay attention.

He just stared at the flames coming out of the caves and cracks in the rocks and grinned.

Such a good ground fire.

Don't ask him to forge a piece of secret gold.

Even Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace can burn out the golden elixir of immortality if placed here.

"Shopkeeper Li... this fire should be successful, right?"

I saw him standing by the hearth.

The faces of the gang of guys were full of awe.

After dozens of steps, they couldn't hold on any longer and felt like they were about to be roasted.

"to make."

"It's great."

"You can go back and inform Shopkeeper Chen, and ask him to order someone to deliver the steel-making furnace and materials. Remember, the sooner the better!"

Hear this.

Li Shuguo, who became more and more satisfied as he watched, couldn't help but turn around and laugh.

"Yes, I'll go right away!"

How dare a bunch of guys delay.

Immediately, two people climbed up the mountain ladder to the outside of the mountain.

All the way down the mountain, taking advantage of the night, we took a boat straight to Chenjiazhuang.

the other side.

Changsheng upstairs.

The atmosphere of the night banquet was even more intense.

Although only five people attended the meeting.

No, four to be exact.

After all, Yuan Hong is just an ape, but his ability to drink is astonishing.

According to it, apes are born to make wine.

In order to live a long and eternal life, when he was in Baiyuan Cave, he sent the monkey grandson to collect elixirs at Laoxiong Ridge in Pingshan Mountain and blended them into Baiguo Wine. The resulting wine was worth a thousand dollars.

It never gets drunk after a thousand cups.

Zhang Yunqiao is not bad either.

Kunlun and Red Girl are even more numerous.

It just so happened that Chen Yulou drank like water.

A simple night banquet lasted from sunset to midnight.

When Chen Yulou got up, opened the door and stood in the martial arts arena to blow the wind, except for Kunlun who was still awake, Yuan Hong and Zhang Yunqiao had already fallen asleep.

Boom boom boom!

Suddenly.

The silent night was broken by the rapid sound of horse hooves.

A boy from the Chen family rode up the mountain all night.

The moment he saw him, Chen Yulou thought something had happened in Zhuangzi.

However, when he turned over and dismounted, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

"The boss, shopkeeper Li sent someone back to report."

"He found a hundred-foot underground fire cave in Shijun Mountain and asked you to send the materials quickly."
