most charming

At night, Qingsong Village is very quiet, as if it is integrated with the mountains and woods.

The moon is very bright tonight, and the moonlight shines on the earth, like a bright lamp above the head.

Lin Tao sat cross-legged on the bed and slowly opened his eyes. Now is the right time to leave.

Opening the window to the north, a gust of cold wind rushed into the house immediately. It is already the end of May, and the night temperature in the mountains is still very low.

However, this will not cause trouble to Lin Tao. On the contrary, he hopes to be calmer, so that no one will go out in the middle of the night at will, and the chance of being discovered is even smaller.

Flip out of the window, close it smoothly, summon the Void Spirit Sword, and pull himself away to fly away.

Lin Tao holds the hilt of the sword in his hand, which consumes far less than controlling it through the air. With Lin Tao's current strength, flying for an hour is not a problem.

The location that Mr. Yuan pointed out on the map is actually a cliff on the back of Genshan Mountain. Lin Tao needs to go half way around the mountain to reach the designated location.

After about half an hour, Lin Tao felt that he was close to his destination, so he landed on the ground.There is a forest in front of me. The temperature in the deep mountains is low, and it is far from the stage of growing green leaves.

Lin Tao holds the Void Spirit Sword in his hand. Although he is full of confidence, he is also quite vigilant about the surrounding environment.Originally, he thought this deal was a good deal, but seeing Village Chief Ouyang's attitude towards Mr. Yuan in the afternoon, it seemed that there was something wrong between the two of them. As a result, he no longer thought that what he had to do tonight would be easy.

Mr. Yuan was also a master of the inner family, so can the village chief Ouyang be worse?

Lin Tao didn't believe it, but the development of things became more and more interesting!

Walking out of the woods, there was a mess of rocks in front of him. Lin Tao looked down, then raised his head and glanced up, and concluded that the rocks were naturally peeled off from the cliff.

Standing under the cliff, Lin Tao raised his head and looked up. The cliff and the ground formed a sharp angle. If it was just climbing the mountain, he could maintain his balance at the beginning.

"Can the mountain villagers climb up a cliff of this level?"

Lin Tao didn't believe it, it's not enough just to have kung fu, you must have enough courage, otherwise whether you can go up or come down is two different things.

Lin Tao grabbed the protruding stones and squeezed them hard, then began to climb the mountain.In fact, he can fly up with the Void Spirit Sword, but rock climbing in the wild is relatively rare, and he does not intend to let go of this opportunity.

In terms of strength, Lin Tao has no problem, but lacks a little skill.However, skills are not a problem. As he climbs higher and higher, he becomes more and more proficient in technology, and his speed is even faster than before.

In a blink of an eye, it was more than a hundred meters away, and it gradually became trembling upwards. Lin Tao's arms and muscles were stretched out, and his waist and abdomen were tightly maintained to maintain balance. So far, everything went smoothly, but there was no grass growing on the cliff, and there was no sky star as Yuan Lao said. Grass.

Crawling and crawling, his eyes suddenly darkened. Lin Tao looked up and smiled helplessly. There was a one-meter-long protrusion on the cliff above his head, which directly blocked the moonlight.

Looking down, the originally tall trees had become dwarfed. Lin Tao roughly estimated that it was nearly 200 meters away, and it should have reached the halfway up the root mountain. If it fell, it would be broken into meatloaf.

Of course, Lin Tao would not let this kind of thing happen to him. With a flip of his wrist, he held the Void Spirit Sword in his hand, aiming at the top of his head and inserting it directly into the rock wall.The Kongling sword was as sharp as if it had been inserted into tofu, and half of the sword was inserted into the rock wall.

Lin Tao dragged hard, feeling very stable. With his right hand, his body suddenly rose upwards, his hands grasped the slanting protrusion of the rock wall, and at the same time he pushed harder, his body soared into the air.

"Snapped!"

Lin Tao put his hands firmly on the edge of the protrusion. He made a standard pull-up movement, poked his head up, and immediately froze.

The top is basically a platform that has been artificially rested. From his perspective, the cliff wall is on the left, and the entire platform seems to be carved out of the rock wall.

The entire platform is about [-] square meters, rectangular in shape, and Lin Tao's position is equivalent to the entrance.

Turning over and climbing onto the platform, Lin Tao had a thought, and grasped the Void Spirit Sword again.There is a platform in this kind of place, and it can only be achieved through Yuan Lao's guidance. There are simply a lot of problems.

Looking at the traces of cutting and chiseling on the cliff, it is obvious that it was excavated manually, but the cliff here is very steep, and it is obviously unrealistic to climb up from below and dig bit by bit.The only way to do it is to hang it from above and work in the air.

But from the top of the mountain to this location, there is a distance of more than [-] meters. There are signs of weathering on the rock wall. Obviously, this platform has existed for a long time. How can people of that era safely descend to this location from above?

Of course, Lin Tao would not underestimate the wisdom of the ancients, but from another perspective, why did he dig a platform on such a cliff, and what was it used for?

Lin Tao gripped the hilt of his sword tightly. It looked safe on the platform, but who knows if a ferocious beast might suddenly appear, there is no harm in being more careful.

Walking forward along the edge of the cliff, the range of the platform in front of you is in an arc shape. If you go forward, it will either end or turn around. Anyway, it is out of sight.

Not a single blade of grass grows on the platform, and there is no star grass as Yuan Lao said.However, in the crevices of the cliff next to it, there are a few plants of unknown origin that survive tenaciously.This also made Lin Tao see hope. There are plants on the cliff, and maybe there will be star grass further up.

Lin Tao did not choose to climb directly, but wanted to find out.Anyway, I have already arrived here, if I don't check it out, I can't satisfy my curiosity, and I will definitely come back here again.This kind of place is full of mysteries and unknown dangers, and it’s enough to come here once. Lin Tao doesn’t want to take the risk of coming a second time.

Walking slowly to the end, suddenly a strong cold wind blew in obliquely. Lin Tao stood on the edge of the cliff, shaking involuntarily.The wind is strong, and this is him. If someone is thinner, he may be blown away, and if he steps on the air, he will die without a place to bury him.

Lin Tao looked over, and there was indeed a road on the other side of the cliff, but compared to the width of the platform, it was considered a cheat.The cliff was only cut less than half a meter inward, and he needed to turn sideways to stand still. Fortunately, there were iron rings on the cliff at intervals to hold him.

On this side of the mountain, there will be gusts of wind from time to time, and the wind is not weak. If you don't stand firmly, you will easily be blown off the cliff.

Lin Tao stood on the edge of the cliff thinking for a long time whether he should go over or not.

Obviously, Mr. Yuan didn't tell the truth when he made a deal with himself. Neither the platform dug out of the cliff nor the one-way road between the cliffs leading to the end area were not included in the information he gave.

Lin Tao even had an illusion that he had climbed in the wrong direction. Maybe the star grass would not grow so high. Maybe even Yuan Yuan hadn't found this place!

But I turned my head and thought again, it shouldn't be the case, especially when I think back to the expression and tone of Village Chief Ouyang when he said about Old Yuan in the afternoon, regardless of what happened between them, at least everyone has secrets that cannot be revealed. There is no doubt about it.

That being the case, how can you guarantee that Mr. Yuan never came here?

Lin Tao shook his head secretly, at least with himself, he couldn't find any reason for him.

Old Yuan looks like an ordinary person, but he can still see Lin Tao's internal strength level with his current level. Obviously, he was also a master in internal strength back then.

If not, why was he afraid of going up the cliff?

Lin Tao's bare-handed climbing naturally has the idea of ​​trying something new, and also has the intention of testing. With his ability, how high he can climb, Yuan Lao's strength 40 years ago can be reduced by a few percent.Even if he was only half as strong as Lin Tao back then, he could at least climb to about [-] meters, but there was no grass at all.

From this, it can be inferred that Yuan Lao must not be telling the truth. He most likely discovered this platform when he was at the peak of his strength, and went in along the path between the cliffs. As for how to get back and forth smoothly, this matter can be reconsidered.

In short, Mr. Yuan did not tell the truth and has been here in person. These two points are absolutely true. Otherwise, Mr. Yuan would not be able to locate so accurately based on rumors. .

No matter how Yuan Lao sees that he has such strength, Lin Tao thinks that he is still at a disadvantage in this transaction, and may even be involved in some kind of conflict.

Lin Tao couldn't figure out why Yuan Lao chose him. Could it be that he knew divination and waited for his arrival for so many years?

No, absolutely impossible!

Lin Tao believes in the existence of divination, but he does not believe that Yuan Lao has this ability.

"It doesn't matter, let's go and have a look!" Lin Tao put all the messy thoughts behind him, took a deep breath, and stood on the edge of the cliff.

He turned slightly sideways, with his back against the cliff, and slowly moved inside.He won’t move the iron ring on the cliff easily. One is that he can’t use that thing to help adjust his balance. The other is that he doesn’t know how long that thing has been there. It’s exposed to wind, sun and rain, who knows if it’s still strong. , It's not worth entrusting your life to this kind of thing.

Lin Tao has an excellent sense of balance, found a posture with a stable center of gravity, and slowly moved inward.

After crossing one hoop after another, Lin Tao didn't touch any of them, and the front seemed to never come to an end.He began to scold his mother in his heart, this road is completely cheating, how can normal people be bored to risk their lives in such a place.

But the more this happened, the more curious Lin Tao became. Obviously, normal people would not come here, so it is very likely that some "relics" left by abnormal people.After seeing the existence of Li Zhenyuan, Lin Tao has fully recognized the existence of ascetics. If it is impossible for normal people to dig such a completely abnormal and unreliable road on the cliff, then it is very likely that the former ascetics did it. It was also one of the reasons why Lin Tao wanted to find out.

The moonlight was gradually blocked by the mountain, Lin Tao's eyes became pitch black, and his speed also slowed down.

The front finally saw the end, and directly opposite was a cave, which was also forcibly carved out of the wall.

"Fuck, I finally see hope!"

Lin Tao let out a long breath, and walked forward at a faster speed.
