From a small soldier in the frontier army, an immortal god of war was born

Chapter 123: The Eight Soldiers of the King of Yue, the Sun-Covering Magic Spear

Now Qiling Mountain is the only place he can count on. Even though he doesn't know whether the rumors are true or not, he has no choice.

So it is better to stay here first and take advantage of these few days to get to know Qiling Mountain. Since it is rumored that this is where Chi You once lived, there must be something unique about it.

"I know I know!"

At this time, A Xuan came forward and said with a smile: "My mother used to grow herbs here when she was young. She was away from home for half a year. She had a small wooden house here, and it should still be habitable now."

"Little Pot, come with me!"

"it is good."

Axuan's mother comes from a family of witch doctors. She has been practicing medicine near Lingxi Village for many years. Every once in a while, she comes to Qiling Mountain to plant and collect herbs.

The wooden house she built was near the top of the mountain. When Wu Fengdeng and the other two arrived, it was already covered with weeds and dust, and some huge palm leaves covered it. If you didn't look carefully, it would be difficult to notice that there was a wooden house there.

After a little cleaning, the wooden house appeared in front of Wu Fengdeng. After many years, it had become dilapidated and half of it had collapsed, making it look difficult to live in.

"It's okay! Xiu Xiu can still live here!" Ah Xuan felt a little bitter when she saw this.

Wu Fengdeng smiled calmly and said, "It's great to have a shelf. We just need to take a break. Qiyu, go chop some wood first. I'll tidy up this place."

"All right!"

Jiang Qiyu took the Hongli gun and walked to the side excitedly, and Axuan followed quickly.

"Sister Jiang, let me help you!"

Ah Xuan seemed to enjoy being with Jiang Qiyu. The cheerful laughter of the two girls could be heard from time to time nearby, which was very pleasant to hear.

Wu Fengdeng put down the mechanism box and began to throw out the discarded wood and debris in the wooden house bit by bit.

We worked like this until the afternoon evening, when we finally managed to clean up the wooden house. The next step was to repair and reinforce the entire house with wood.

Wu Fengdeng grabbed a piece of wood and was about to peel it with an arrow when he suddenly heard a "ouch!"
Subconsciously, I looked in the direction of the sound, only to see Jiang Qiyu's figure flash by quickly.

"Ah Xuan, what's wrong with you?"

"Sister Jiang, I fell into a pit!"

"Are you hurt?"

"It's okay! This pit isn't deep, I can climb out... Hey, what is this?"

Axuan's voice became a little doubtful, and Wu Fengdeng hurried over immediately.

At this moment, she was sitting in a big pit about one meter deep. There was some mud on her silver crown and her face was stained, but she didn't care at all. She slowly knelt on the ground and leaned over to look at something.

"Xiao Guoguo, come and take a look, what is this?"

Wu Fengdeng quickly jumped down and looked carefully, only to see a granite slab buried in the pit with obvious axe marks on it, obviously man-made.

“Someone has been here.”

His pupils shrank slightly, his expression instantly became solemn, and he began to quickly clean the dirt off the stone slab.

Now all his hopes are on Qiling Mountain, and any related strange stories, weird things cannot be ignored.

After a while, the stone slab was fully revealed, and it was discovered that it actually covered the entire bottom of the pit.

"I am a fairy..."

Ah Xuan covered her mouth in surprise, and then Wu Fengdeng lifted her up and told her, "Qi Yu, stay away. I'll open it and see what's inside."

"Well, Brother Fengdeng, be careful."

There was a green light flickering in Jiang Qiyu's hands, and it was obvious that he had started to practice his internal energy.

Wu Fengdeng stood outside the pit, inserted the red glass gun into the gap of the stone slab along the pit wall, and then suddenly exerted force, and the surging and heavy force instantly blew the stone slab away.

Boom~
In an instant, the mud splashed, and Wu Fengdeng's blood surged, and he looked alert and ready to fight.

However, after five full breaths, the pit was still calm and nothing had happened. Wu Fengdeng then leaned over and his eyes widened.

It turned out to be a bottomless pit!

"Miss Xuan, do you have the custom of digging holes here?"

"Uh... no, I haven't heard of anything other than burial that would require digging such a big hole."

"I'm going to have a look at that slate."

Wu Fengdeng nodded slightly, circulated his qi and blood, and enhanced his eyes with [Eagle Vision], so that he could see the appearance of the pit clearly.

The part near the entrance of the cave is relatively smooth and flat, as if it was dug by humans, but underneath there are protruding rugged rocks and intertwined tree roots, which should be naturally formed.

"The fact that someone has been here means there is something strange here. We might as well go down and take a look."

"Little pot pot!"

Ah Xuan's voice attracted Wu Fengdeng's attention. She pointed at a special circular symbol on the back of the stone slab and said, "This seems to be the symbol of Yu Yue State!"

"Yuyue Kingdom? Aren't you Xiou?"

"Yes, that's right."

Ah Xuan said: "The old people in the village said that in the early years, there was a very powerful monarch in the Yuyue Kingdom, named Gou Jian."

"He once briefly unified our Baiyue land, but later failed in the Central Plains, and our Xiou was separated again."

"This stone slab should have been left behind by the Yu Yue people at that time."

Wu Fengdeng nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that this place was really not simple.

"Let's go down and have a look."

Now that he was here, there was no reason to just leave it alone, but before going down the cave he made a simple torch.

Although he had Eagle Eyes that could ignore the darkness, Jiang Qiyu and the others still had to rely on the light of the fire.

Carrying the mechanism box on his back, he jumped into the cave with the two girls. The pit was sloping upward at first, and it became flat after climbing a small slope.

The walls inside are mostly a mixture of stones and soil, about three meters high. The space on both sides can accommodate three or four people side by side, so it is quite spacious.

"I wonder if what the Yuyue people left behind is related to Gou Jian. And the spiritual tree on the mountain is not far from here. Are the two also related?"

Wu Fengdeng was thinking as he walked, with the red glass spear at his waist, ready to stab out instantly if there was any disturbance.

Suddenly, Wu Fengdeng saw some orange spots flashing in his vision. He saw them from a long distance away, and judging from the amplitude of the swaying, they looked like fire!
someone!

"Shh!"

Wu Fengdeng made a gesture to the two women behind him to keep quiet. Jiang Qiyu immediately understood what he meant and put out the torch.

Gradually, the footsteps became clearer, and there were faint sounds of conversation.

"Hurry up! You're such a slacker!"

"Why are you so anxious? Can that baby still run away?"

"I'll beat you to death! Those are the King of Yue and the Eight Soldiers that the Six Witch Masters have been thinking about the most. If something goes wrong, can you and I still keep our heads?"

"...If it's so important, why doesn't he come in person!" "It's because the Chu State has distinguished guests. Of course, we can't let them know about this treasure, otherwise they will definitely come to grab it. That's why the six witch masters can't get away and let us take it."

"Hey, don't waste time, hurry up!"

……

The conversation between the two male voices instantly made Wu Fengdeng's heart tremble.

The six witch masters, the eight soldiers of the King of Yue, and the distinguished guests of the State of Chu.

The former is easy to understand, the Six Witch Lords are members of the Thousand Witch Gang, and so are these two.

The Eight Weapons of the King of Yue sounded both familiar and unfamiliar. They were very similar to the "Eight Swords of the King of Yue forged by Ou Yezi" in history in his memory. They should be the weapons forged by the "Ou Yezi" in this world.

This distinguished guest from the State of Chu made him think of those mysterious young men that the boatman and pirate had mentioned in the morning.

Are they also connected with the Thousand Witch Gang?
Wu Fengdeng felt that something was wrong. Just as he was about to catch up with the two men, he suddenly felt a cold gaze coming from above.

When he looked up, he saw a small dark green snake crawling in the crevice of the rock and staring at him.

"Which one?!"

Almost instantly, a man's loud shout was heard in the distance, and then the little snake seemed to be summoned and swam towards them quickly.

Along with it there were many strange-looking poisonous insects. The rustling sounds came one after another, and the twisting shapes made Wu Fengdeng's face even gloomier.

He didn't notice the presence of such poisonous creatures around just now, which shows that these guys are extremely difficult to detect when they are hiding.

"Little Pot, why don't we go quickly."

A Xuan seemed to be afraid of them and kept pulling at Wu Fengdeng's clothes.

"I've been discovered. I can't leave even if I want to."

He said in a deep voice, and Jiang Qiyu beside him also had a cold look in his eyes, with bamboo leaves floating on his wrists.

woohoo~~
Firelight appeared in an instant, and two middle-aged men, one tall and one short, walked out. They were both wearing the same distinctive costumes as Axuan, but there were poisonous snakes, centipedes and other venomous creatures wrapped around their shoulders and chests.

"It's over! It's the chief priest of the Thousand Witches Gang!"

Hearing Axuan's exclamation, Wu Fengdeng narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully sensed the qi and blood of the two people.

Judging from the state of Qi and blood, both of them are in the early stage of Tongjing state, but they feel a little ethereal, as if they were forcibly brought up by some kind of medicine.

"Who are you? Why are you here?!"

The high priest among them spoke, and Wu Fengdeng could smell the stench from his mouth even from a distance.

"Two priests, I am so sorry, we..."

Ah Xuan answered subconsciously, but was then pulled behind Jiang Qiyu, and her voice suddenly stopped.

"This girl seems to be the bone girl of Lingxi Village. As for these two people..."

The short priest looked Wu Fengdeng and the other man up and down, and said in a rather hostile tone: "From your clothes, you look like outsiders. Hey, are you Chu barbarians?"

"No."

Wu Fengdeng answered while carefully looking around, and only looked away after making sure that there was no one else around.

"No matter who you are, did you hear what we just said?"

"heard it."

“I heard it!!!”

The two men's eyes quickly filled with murderous intent: "If that's the case, then we can't keep you here!"

call!
Suddenly, a sharp wind blew and blew out the torches of the two priests, and the passage was instantly plunged into darkness.

A Xuan's eyes went dark and she quickly thought to herself that something was wrong.

Oh no! The chief priest of the Thousand Witches Gang is much more ferocious than Master Wei!
She once saw with her own eyes the fat boy humble himself in front of a priest of the Thousand Witches Gang, and was slapped so hard in the face that he didn't even dare to fart.

The priests are so fierce, and the high priest is even more difficult to deal with. Liu Guoguo is afraid that he is in trouble!
Just when Axuan's heart was in her throat, she heard the sound of a sharp blade cutting flesh, followed by a shrill scream, the hissing of a venomous snake, the shouting of a poisonous toad, and a very sharp sound of breaking through the air.

It was so lively in just two breaths that Ah Xuan turned pale with fright.

Until the firelight came back on, Jiang Qiyu's gentle little face appeared, holding her hand, and smiled: "Don't worry, it's okay."

Ah Xuan was stunned for a moment, then she was able to look in the direction of the firelight, and then she took a breath of cold air.

I saw that the two priests were lying in a pool of blood, one was cut in half, and the other was stabbed in the heart, still sobbing.

The ground was littered with the writhing corpses of poisonous creatures, whether they were venomous snakes, toads, centipedes, or scorpions, all of which seemed to have been cut in half by sharp blades, and there were also scattered bamboo leaves.

And the Liu Guoguo that she was worried about was standing there unharmed, the spear in his hand was dripping with blood, there were some blood lines on his clean face, and his expression was calm and composed, as if he had only killed two ants.

That’s the high priest of the Thousand Witch Gang!
Axuan's worldview completely collapsed. She knew that Liu Guoguo and the other two were powerful, but she didn't expect them to be so fierce that they could easily kill the high priest in seconds.

This must be as fierce as the witch master, right? !
While she was stunned, Wu Fengdeng had already found a leather map on them, which seemed to be the map of the tunnel here.

"Let's keep walking."

It was much easier with the map. The three of them wandered around in the cave until they were almost dizzy, and finally arrived at the place marked on the map.

It was a stone chamber of about ten square meters in size, with a circular structure. A waterway surrounded the chamber, and some water was flowing gently.

Wu Fengdeng looked around and then raised his head. He could vaguely see thick tree roots where the top of the stone chamber had fallen off.

"It seems that the spiritual tree is right above this location, right?"

He suddenly had an idea and took out the map to compare it, confirming that the place above was where the spiritual tree was.

But before he could think about it, his eyes were drawn to the center of the stone chamber, where a stone trough was quietly placed, covered with vines that had long since dried and rotted.

"Stand down."

Wu Fengdeng asked the two women to stop and not move forward, then he swung the red glass spear and swept it across with all his might. The strong wind blew away the vines directly.

Wait for a few moments and nothing happens.

Only then did Wu Fengdeng feel relieved and stepped forward.

I saw a broken gun placed in the rectangular stone trough!
Broken gun may not be the right word, it should be "broken gun", there are more than twenty pieces of different sizes, arranged into the shape of a long gun.

It looks like it's all black and red, with an exaggerated and ferocious shape, especially the tip of the gun, which is peculiar, resembling a wolf head holding a ball, and is full of weird and evil spirit, like a celestial dog eclipsing the sun.

However, as he watched, Wu Fengdeng discovered something was wrong. These fragments should have been scattered, but now they were actually suspended, tightly embedded in each other, as if some force was sucking them together.

"This……"

When Wu Fengdeng was puzzled by this strange scene, Ah Xuan beside him suddenly had dilated pupils and pointed at the broken gun and said excitedly: "This is Yanri, this is the magic gun Yanri, one of the eight weapons of the King of Yue!"

"Legend has it that Gou Jian asked Ou Yezi to forge eight magical weapons and distributed them to his eight famous generals. They were invincible in every battle and were very fierce!"

"This is Le Yanri, the leader of the Eight Soldiers!"

　The Eight Soldiers of the King of Yue here are eight different weapons, not the eight swords in the history books.
