Actually, when Chun Sanniang found out that her opponent was the Three Monsters of Qilins, she was still a little apprehensive. After all, these three monsters were not unworthy of their reputation.
Actually, it was not that Zhang Chong himself was hard to deal with, but the crucial point was that the ghost head in his hand was extremely magical. Not only could the skull head speak human words, it could also see through the thoughts of others.
It was said that this "Ghost Man of the Mountain" was capable of everything except being eccentric and had never set foot in the martial arts world, so no one had ever seen his true appearance. As for why the Phantom Bend flowed from the hands of the "Phantom Man of the mountain" to the outside world, no one knew.
Chun Sanniang calculated that the inn did not rely solely on the evidence that she had mentioned. More importantly, the two corpses that were found in her room.
After Chun Sanniang entered the room, because the room smelled so bad, she went to the window and opened it. Rain dripped from the window onto the floor, and gradually, a faint red color appeared on the floor, which gradually turned from a light red to an orange red. Chun Sanniang could not help but be confused.
From the looks of it, it had only been two days since they died. From this, Chun Sanniang was even more certain that the three people in the inn came to avoid Shui Liuli. As they did not know what Chun Sanniang and Wu Xiang looked like, all the guests that came along with them were killed.
It was because of this judgment that Chun Sanniang had immediately told Wu Xiang about the plan through the chatterbox.
When the waitress knocked on her door with the incense burner, she realized that the incense was definitely some kind of sleeping incense. Thus, he used the Breath Suspending Technique. Since the incense could not enter her body, it naturally could not have the desired effect.
When Yang Kun and Mu Li snuck into Chun Sanniang's room in the middle of the night, it seemed like everything was going according to plan. However, they didn't know that they had been hit by a faceless illusion, causing their later brothers to be crippled.
After a night of rest, the two horses ran for nearly a hundred miles in a single breath. Although Chun Sanniang had escaped with ease this time, her heart felt heavier and heavier. It seemed that someone had already set their eyes on Shui Liuli. She believed that this trip would be fraught with great danger.
After travelling north for another few dozen kilometers, there were two forks in the road ahead. One was the main road, and the other was a small path. The road was flat and covered with thorns. Chun Sanniang couldn't help but frown and tighten her reins. The horse's hooves let out a long hiss and stopped. She was breathing heavily through her nose.
Wu Xiang looked at Chun Sanniang and asked, "Sanniang, which of these two paths should we take?"
No matter if I choose the path or the main road, there will definitely be an ambush in front of me. If that's the case, then I will have to take the main road.
Thinking up to here, she stretched her brows and bluntly said, "Take the main road!" After saying so, he kicked the horse's belly and the two of them sped towards the main road.
"Ta ta ta …" "Ta ta ta …" These two strong, red-brown horses galloped like the wind on their four hooves. Their long manes were flying in the air, like two balls of fire galloping on a flat road. The journey was smooth and they did not encounter any obstacles.
"Did I overthink it?" She hoped that she could safely return to the Withering Abyss Palace without any problems on the way back. Gradually, the rhythmic sound of the horses' hooves became disorderly and their backs became more bumpy. Chun Sanniang had no choice but to tighten her reins as the horses gradually slowed down. The road was no longer as flat as it had been before. There were broken rocks of various sizes strewn all over the ground.
"The Evil Gorge is right in front of us, we still need to be careful." Chun Sanniang said after taking a glance at Wu Xiang.
Evil Gorge, unlike the other canyons with gushing rivers, was a dry and rough canyon. The terrain was steep and the walls were tens of thousands of metres long, although the spacing between the two sides was extremely narrow, the widest place was only 20 to 30 metres.
According to legends, in the ancient times, this was the origin of millions of rivers, and the soil and water here were fertile and fertile. Generations of the Water Emperor Clan lived here, and the corresponding Mountain Kings lived in barren lands for generations. They were extremely jealous of the Water Emperor Clan for having such a good place, so they continuously instigated conflicts with the Water Emperor Clan.
It was said that the great battle had lasted for tens of thousands of years, and that both sides had fought until the sky went dark, the sun and moon disappeared without light, and both sides had suffered countless deaths and injuries. When the Mountain Emperor saw that there was no chance of winning against the source of millions of rivers, he used an ancient forbidden technique — — Mountain Shifting Art. Everywhere were creatures that starved to death by thirst.
In order to save his people and the rest of the world, the Ocean Emperor had no choice but to steal the Splitting Mountain Axe from the God Equipment Pavilion in the Heavenly Court and split the mountain. However, he did not expect that this axe would be so powerful, causing the flow of the river to change drastically.
General Xie's actions caused the Heavenly Monarch to be furious, and he sent the God General to the lower realms to capture Xie Xie in the Celestial Prison, where he was punished with lightning and thunder every day. In memory of him, his descendants named this place the Evil Emperor Gorge.
After tens of thousands of years of wind and rain, the vicissitudes of time had long been deeply engraved in its "body." The two sides were filled with "scars", just like a wrinkled old man silently narrating the shocking and extremely cruel battles of ancient times.
The road ahead became harder and harder to walk on. Chun Sanniang and Wu Xiang had no choice but to dismount and walk on foot.
Before he could take more than a few steps, he saw Chun Sanniang's body sway as she whined, "Aiyo!"
"What's wrong? Third Mother? " Wu Xiang hastily supported her. Although his face was expressionless, it was obvious from his tone that he was extremely concerned about her.
"It's nothing, I was just lucky that I got hit by this rock." When Chun Sanniang felt pain under her feet, she took off her shoes and started inspecting them.
Looking at Chun Sanniang's smooth and delicate legs, Wu Xiangtong fell into a daze.
"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Chun Sanniang looked at Wu Xiang's dazed look and asked. She slowly moved closer to him with a teasing look and said, "You can't have really fallen for me, right?"
When he heard what Chun Sanniang said, Wu Xiang looked at her as if he had just woken up from a dream, expressionlessly shaking his head.
"Hmph, without the best, Wu Xiang, let me remind you once again, you must not have any other thoughts. "Otherwise …"
Just as he said that, he heard a sneer from high up in the sky, "Hum, hum, hum..." "At this time, you're still trying to flirt with me. That's good too, let's talk while we're still alive. There's no point in talking about it when we're already dead, hahaha …"
