Chapter 80 The Water Mansion under Longji Mountain

"This man's movement is faster than last time. In just a few days, I have eaten a three-hundred-year-old ginseng!" The man in the cloak was horrified as he listened to the sounds coming closer and closer behind him.

Suddenly his figure fell sharply.

In Wang Shen's eyes, the man with unkempt hair suddenly disappeared.

Um? Wang Shen looked at a hole in the ground, no more than two feet wide, hidden among the weeds.

"Drilling holes again, is this person born in the year of the rat?"

"Zangshui Mansion at the foot of Longji Mountain." A hoarse and unpleasant voice came from the cave. Then a unique whistle came from the cave, and the mountain demon quickly went away after hearing the whistle.

"Dragon's Back Mountain?"

Hearing these three words, Wang Shen suddenly thought of the painting he got from Li Kui's tomb. The content of the painting was a man meeting Hebo at the foot of the mountain. The mountain really looked like a dragon's spine.

"What a coincidence!"

Wang Shen returned home, took out the painting again, looked at it carefully, and then took out the token he carried.

"How did that guy know that I was carrying a river patrol order? Or was there some way to feel the energy on it?" Wang Shen looked at the river patrol order in his hand.

If there really is any water house under the Qinghe River, I'm afraid it's hidden in a very deep place. Ordinary people are not that good at water. If you really want to enter the water, I'm afraid you still have to use this river patrol order.

In the following days, Wang Shen did not go to Longji Mountain, but continued to catch birds in the mountain.

There is a mountain beside the Qinghe River, with an arched peak that looks like a piece of phosphorus armor from a distance.

On the mountainside, a man was hiding in his cloak, looking at the sparkling water below the mountain. Qinghe turned a big bend at the foot of the mountain.

"That guy didn't come. What did he think?" The man under the cloak whispered to himself.

He had been waiting here for several days, but the person he was waiting for never showed up.

A few days later, in the cold wind, a man came to the river bend and stared at the river for a while. Under the sunlight, his face turned blue, the color of a herring.

He stretched out his hand and tested the river water. It was freezing cold. He found a sheltered place, took off his outer clothes, and saw that his body was also a strange green color. He moved his body on the shore, and then jumped into the cold water.

On this day, Wang Shen came back from the mountain and saw a man wandering outside his house.

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Pei? What brought you here?" Wang Shen came forward and asked.

"Beifeng." Pei Jin said with a smile, "I want to find out something from you."

"Please." Wang Shen opened the door, invited Pei Jin into the room, and made a pot of tea.

"What were you doing out on this cold day?"

"Go for a walk in the mountains and see if you can hold any game."

"It seems like you didn't get caught?"

"Caught him and ran away again." Wang Shen said matter-of-factly.

"What a pity." Pei Jin took a sip of tea, "This tea is good, but it is not local tea."

"From a friend."

"Chen Zheng?"

Wang Shen nodded.

"Lanhe County has not been peaceful recently?"

"is it?"

"A few days ago, a group of officers and soldiers were killed in an abandoned village outside the city."

"Who is so bold that he even dares to kill officers and soldiers?" Wang Shen asked knowingly.

"It's not just bold, it's simply audacious and crazy!" Pei Jin said. When he said this, he looked at Wang Shen aside.

"Hey, Mr. Pei, what are you looking at me for?"

"I'm just curious. When you and Chen Zheng were in Wuyang County, a lot of things happened in Wuyang County. Now that you two have come to Lanhe, something happened to Lanhe again. Isn't it a coincidence?" "Is there something in Mr. Pei's words?"

Pei Jin suddenly laughed.

"Chen is your brother. He is now a famous figure in the Qinghe Gang and the leader of the Hanfeng Hall. Do you have to be a deacon?"

"He mentioned it to me, but I'm used to being lazy and don't want to worry about it." Wang Shen waved his hand.

"In this world, some people seek wealth, some seek fame, and some hope to gain both fame and fortune. There are not many people like you!"

"Then what do you want, Mr. Pei?"

"Fame and fortune!" Pei Jin said without hesitation.

"Understood." Wang Shen smiled and nodded.

"I will be staying in Lanhe for a while recently. If you hear any useful news, you can go to the Yamen to find me."

"must."

"Excuse me, excuse me."

"Master Pei, walk slowly."

Pei Jin walked out of the yard with a smile, and Wang Shen sent him away with a smile. After walking some distance away, Pei Jin suddenly looked back at Wang Shen, who was still standing at the door.

"Go back!" He waved his hand towards Wang Shen.

"I always feel like there's something wrong with this guy." Pei Jin said.

"Isn't this guy doubting me? Is he showing off something, shouldn't he?" Wang Shen stared at Pei Jin's back and said.

Unknowingly, the new year is approaching.

On this day, a person came to the Qinghe River.

"This is it!" Wang Shen looked at the phosphorus-like mountain peaks not far away.

This mountain is the same as in the painting, except there is no pavilion on the mountain.

In the cold wind, Wang Shen went up the mountain. After searching halfway up the mountain, he really found a incomplete trace. There were several almost completely broken stone pillars inserted into the hard grass among the grass. Among the rocks.

"This should be the location of the pavilion in the painting, but it was destroyed for some reason. Does it have anything to do with the water palace?"

Standing here, the situation of Qinghe at the foot of the mountain can be seen very clearly.

"Why build a pavilion in such a place?" Wang Shen looked around. This was a wilderness, and there were no villages around the mountains.

Wang Shen was standing on the mountain, quietly looking at the flowing water below.

As time went by, the shadow of the mountain on the opposite side slowly shifted and moved above the Qinghe River.

Strangely enough, the Qinghe water in the shadow looked completely different from before when viewed from a distance. The river water at this time looked a strange black color, very deep.

"Where is the Water Palace?" Wang Shen looked far away at the seemingly deep water.

On this cold day, the river water is freezing cold. It is really inappropriate to go into the water now.

Wang Shen came down from the mountain and walked closer to look at the water of the Qinghe River. He stretched out his hand and tried it. Because he had a river patrol order on him, the water didn't feel that cold, but it was just a little chilly.

"Why don't you go down and take a look?" An idea suddenly came to my mind.

Wang Shen turned back and looked at the mountain peak, then looked around. There was no one around. Who would come to this wilderness on such a cold day?

He stood quietly by the river, and the idea of ​​​​going into the water became more and more intense.

"Are you influencing me again?" Wang Shen glanced at the river patrol order hanging on his body, took it off and threw it two feet away. Unexpectedly, the feeling did not disappear and was still there.

"Why don't you go with your feelings?"

After thinking for a while, he picked up the river patrol order again, found a secluded place, and got into the water.
