Chapter 64 The Hole in the Hole (4.1k)

Wu Peng walked into the county office with a gift, his face full of respect and caution.

When he walked into the lobby and saw Lu Jing sitting high in the hall, his heart suddenly tightened—Lu Jing was playing with a scimitar, throwing it at will, and it was Liang Wei's seventh-grade Miao knife [Three Liao], the light of the knife Sen Han shook people's minds.

"Grassman Wupeng, I have seen Lord Jijiu."

Wu Peng saluted respectfully, bent at ninety degrees, and was very humble.

While talking, he held the gift box in both hands and handed it to the table, and said with a smile: "This is a century-old Shouwu plant, which can nourish Qi and refresh the mind. Caomin would like to express my heart on behalf of the Wu family. Please accept it..."

"You're welcome."

The old god Lu Jing was sitting on the chair, and did not go to pick him up. He said, "It looks like you don't have to do the work. If you are tired, I will be tired too. The Master of the Young Castle said that he wants to discuss the strategy of defending against the enemy. Where is the enemy? What is it?" A discussion method? Let’s get straight to the point.”

"Uh……"

Wu Peng smiled awkwardly: "Your Excellency speaks quickly, and the grassroots are not long-winded. Just now I witnessed Sir's move to build the Beijing Temple, and my heart trembled. I admire the thunder method! The enemy is of course Jiuli Village, and Looking around the county government, there are very few people as brave as your lord, two fists are hard to beat with four hands, Wujiabao is willing to help you!"

He bowed deeply.

Lu Jing paused, raised his eyes to look at him, and said with a half-smile: "Fengmuxuan is booming in Laoganshan, and Wubao gave it up as soon as he said it... a bit unexpected..."

Wu Peng said with a smile: "Mr. Shui Jing said: 'He who knows the current affairs is a hero." You don't have to worry too much. Now that Pang Xi is dead, the rest of the party don't have to worry about it. There are adults who sit in Xichong County and rely on Langzhong. With the help of celestial masters and masters, forgive that Jiuli Village will be difficult to stir up storms! The general trend is established, Wubao is naturally willing to add to the icing on the cake, and bet the treasure on the lord in order to win huge profits!"

Lu Jing was noncommittal: "Young Castle Lord is not shy about it."

Wu Peng smiled and said: "It is the nature of businessmen to seek profit. Your Excellency is wise and wise. I'm afraid you can't hide your thoughts from the grassroots. If this is the case, it is better to speak out."

"very good……"

Hearing this, Lu Jing's expression finally softened, as if he believed it, he nodded and looked at him and said, "But... I'm afraid it's not just because of these. If there is any request from the Wu family, the Young Castle Master can just speak it out. If you can get Wubuo's help, I will do my best!"

"really!"

Seeing him with a gentle expression and encouraging eyes, Wu Peng secretly rejoiced.

——Let’s say he is short of manpower. At this time, he will give you help in a timely manner. Even if you have doubts, he will definitely try his best to fight for it!

Thinking of this, Wu Peng made a proper embarrassment expression, and said in a low voice: "My lord said so, it made the grass-roots panic... The grass-roots witnessed the master's methods with their own eyes in Yunxu Pavilion, and they were in awe. The surrender came from the heart, but It’s true that I have a small favor and would like to ask your lord for help, this...don’t worry, my lord! After the matter is completed, Wubao will thank you again, and will do my best to help you resist Jiuli Village, and vow to live and die with you!”

Wu Peng looked solemn, and said firmly!
Lu Jing sighed in his heart, with a more relieved expression on his face. He stepped down from his seat, came over to help Wu Peng, and said in a warm voice, "Mutual benefit is what should be done. I wonder what the young castle master is referring to?"

Wu Peng carefully looked around.

Lu Jing waved the others away, Wu Peng heaved a sigh of relief, and then began to explain the secrets.

It turns out that when Wu Hao, the lord of Wujiabao, first discovered Laogan Mountain 20 years ago, Laogan Mountain was not just a small hill with an empty stomach, but also a bottomless cave in the center of the mountain. There is a natural cave extending in all directions.

——Now the entrance of the cave is in the secret room of Wuhao's retreat in Wujiabao, Jiazi District!
This cave seems to be left by a senior expert, and there are many traps in the cave, but it is indeed a blessed place full of vitality.

It was by relying on it that the two brothers Wu Hao and Wu Quan made rapid progress and reached the peak of Qi creation one after another, only a short distance away from refining gods;
It is also because of it that Wu Peng has eight levels of cultivation at a young age. He seems to be not seeking to make progress, and he is full of wind and snow every day, but in fact he has superb internal skills and profound family education.

Over the years, Wujiabao has been working hard to open up the cave, and has gained a lot of benefits from it.

But they couldn't attack the deepest stone room, because there was a magical stone formation around the stone room.

This formation has been arranged by experts, and has been integrated with Laogan Mountain. Driven by the vitality of the earth, there are 28 small stone mountains inside, each representing 28 stars. The overall arrangement is according to the nine palaces and gossips.
Anyone who enters the battle will be trapped in it, besieged by rocks and mountains, at least they will lose their way, and at worst they will die. It is absolutely impossible to move forward!
Wu Hao and others spent more than ten years breaking through the formation and delving into the formation, but they made no progress.

Since they couldn't make a frontal breakthrough, they wanted to find another way, and asked the experts to withdraw the earth's energy from the formation - such a drastic move can also destroy the power source of the formation, so that they can easily enter the stone room and get the most precious things!
But this is easier said than done.

For one thing, this expert's martial arts must be below the level of a god, otherwise the Wu family can't control it, and it will be like leading wolves into the house and seeking their own death.

Secondly, this expert's ability to control the earth is strong, and the earth's energy is strong under the formation. If he can't get away, he still has no way to take the cave.

This is the dilemma.

The realm cannot be high, but the mental strength must be strong...

But no matter how difficult it is, it is more hopeful than breaking the formation. Wujiabao has recruited many people to try it before, but unfortunately, none of them have that kind of unique spiritual talent.

If the skills are not enough, the Wu family can still help pass on the skills, but if the mental power is not enough, then you really can only look at the ocean and sigh.

Below the state of refining the gods, the spiritual thoughts have not yet been achieved, and the carrier of consciousness is still the "god" among the three treasures. If you want to draw out the energy of the earth, you need to have a very strong mental power. Such a person is even harder to find than in the refining state.

On the one hand, the Wu family relies on Wu Hao to break through the realm, and on the other hand, they are also secretly looking for a master of the Qi creation realm who can proficiently control the earth's energy.

It's a pity that after so many years, neither of them has made much progress. It was not until seeing Lu Jing displaying his supernatural power in Fengmuxuan - the ninth floor of qi creation, below the level of refining gods, but able to use the earth qi proficiently, finally saw the dawn.

"Don't hide it from your lord."

Wu Peng said sincerely: "For so many years, my father has been retreating, hoping to break through that front line, but he has never been able to do so... I want to find a master who can control the earth's energy, but I can't find it. I am almost desperate. I am so heartbroken...God sees you! I am fortunate enough to meet you today, and there is no unparalleled road, Wu Peng implores you to help me..."

He bent down, gritted his teeth, and said solemnly: "If my lord can really break through the formation, Wubao is willing to share the treasures in the cave equally with my lord! If I violate this promise, I will die!"

I see……

Lu Jing was stunned, and said playfully, "Young Castle Lord, aren't you afraid that I will have evil intentions?"

Wu Peng's expression changed, he looked at Lu Jing seriously, and said, "Your Excellency, you know what is my Wujiapu family's secret knowledge?"

Lu Jing shook his head: "I'm new here, I haven't heard of it yet, please speak clearly, Young Castle Master."

Wu Peng said: "Its name is "Fire Heart Sutra". It is a kind of secret martial arts from outside the sky. Naturally, there are some unknown methods... My father has been studying in closed doors for many years. At the sixth level, the form of true qi changes, forming an aura that can cast iron and melt gold... The most valuable weapon in Wujiabao is forged by my father himself. It can melt even gold and iron, let alone mortal bodies? What do you think? ?”

yo?

scare me?
Lu Jing raised his eyebrows, smiled faintly, and said, "It turns out that there is something to rely on, no wonder..."

Wu Peng bowed his head again: "I hope my lord will not be offended, it is just a means of self-protection. Wu Bao has a reputation for many years, and he is well-known far and wide. The promises made will definitely be fulfilled! If adults are worried, you can also bring others with you. Go, but can't go down the cave... This matter is related to family secrets, please forgive me."

"I see."

Lu Jing said lightly: "You must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others. How can you be offended? Well, I know everything, and I will go with you for a trivial matter! But, I am not very sure... ...If it doesn’t work, please don’t break your promise, Young Castle Master.”

Wu Peng rejoiced and said: "As long as you do your best, as for the promise, Wu Peng will guarantee you with the head of the item, and you will not let you down!"

"Let's go then."

Lu Jing stood up: "The people from Jiuli Village may arrive at any time, let's make a quick decision so we can actively prepare for the battle."

"Sir, please."

Unable to wait, Wu Peng stretched out his hand.

Lu Jing walked out of the lobby first.

Wang Shuang was guarding the door.

Lu Jing said to him: "Wang Shuang, if I don't come back before midnight tonight, Feiyan will send a letter to Langzhong immediately, saying that I died in Wujiapu, and let Master and his old man avenge me... Oh, sir Castle Master, don't take offense, I am also guarding against others."

Lu Jing turned his head to look at Wu Peng, with a playful smile, concealing anger—it seemed to be the anger directed at Wu Peng's previous distrust.

Not knowing why, Wang Shuang stared at Wu Peng.

Wu Peng's heart was beating wildly, this person really didn't suffer at all, he smiled awkwardly: "What are you talking about, my lord, how dare we take action against you..."

Lu Jing laughed and patted him on the shoulder: "Just kidding, kidding, let's go."

Wu Peng followed suit, leading the way.

……

After less than an hour, Lu Jing entered Laogan Mountain again.

This time he followed Wu Peng to take a shortcut through the mountains, passing through a large wilderness field, and there were no pedestrians on the road.

What Wu Peng means is that this road is relatively short, and it can go directly to the hillside of Laogan Mountain, in Wujiabao... This is indeed the case, but Lu Jing can tell at a glance that his real purpose is not to let Laogan Mountain Jiuli Zhai Yanlin knew that Wujiabao had contacts with his sacrificial wine, so he was more sure that this guy had no intention of helping!
"Want to be an empty-handed white wolf? Hehe, on Lao Tzu's boat, you still want to get out of your body, how dare you think..."

Lu Jing sneered in his heart, but remained calm.

soon.

The two came to the Jiazi District, Wujiabao.

Wujiabao occupies an exclusive area. Naturally, it has a vast area, a luxurious style, and also contains rare treasures, so a lot of fortifications have been specially built. Looking from a distance, it really looks like a small city, with a majestic appearance.

The second castle master Wu Quan was already waiting in front of the gate, seeing the two of them coming, his face was filled with joy, and he saluted and said, "Thank you for making this trip, Mr. Wujiabao, everyone in Wujiabao is grateful for your kindness!"

Lu Jing smiled and said: "The situation is serious, as long as Wujiabao can help me defend against powerful enemies, these trivial matters are nothing to worry about."

"..."

Wu Quan twitched his face, lowered his head, and said respectfully: "We will do our best."

Wu Quan studies Confucianism intensively. He "observes etiquette" in his daily speech and behavior, and has a high sense of morality. Of course, he can abandon it at certain times, as long as "out of sight is pure". It can only be ambiguous.

Wu Peng hurriedly said: "My lord, please, my father is waiting in the secret room."

"Ah."

Lu Jing nodded: "Hurry up and work. If I can't go back before midnight, I will be 'killed'." He strode forward.

"Ok?"

Wu Quan's expression froze, and he looked at Wu Peng.

A gloomy look quickly flashed across Wu Peng's face, and he nodded to him.

They all understand that this is Lu Jing's self-protection, to prevent Wujiabao from attacking him after breaking the formation... Once he does this, Tianshidao will blame Wujiabao for his death. The time can run away, the monk can't run away from the temple...

Don't look at Tianshidao's shortage of manpower now, it's because of the need to guard the land and keep the people safe. If Lu Jing dies and loses the city and land, his teacher will kill him regardless, and Wujiabao will definitely be liquidated!

The liquidation of the God Realm!

The two were shocked.

But it was also expected.

They didn't intend to touch him at all. What Wujiabao has to do is to wait for Lu Jing to drain the air, break through the stone formation, enter the cave, give him something to stabilize, and wait until he needs help. Let him die in the hands of the masters of Jiuli Village, and then take back his things without bloodshed...

"Please."

Wu Quan stretched out his hand to lead the way, leading Lu Jing through the corridor and into the central secret room.

There is an emerald screen on the front of the secret room, which blocks the view. Behind the screen stands the Great Castle Master Wu Hao. Behind Wu Hao is the big hole.

Wu Hao is in his fifties, with a burly figure and a resolute face. He wears gloves on his hands and exudes an astonishing heat.

Wu Peng made an introduction for the two, and Wu Hao complimented them, and then got to the point: "This cave extends in all directions, and the interior space is extremely wide. When you first enter it, you may be confused by stalactites and the like. Please also cover your head and face, Mr. Jijiu. , and the three of us will lead you in."

To put it bluntly, I just don't want Lu Jing to know the real route, so as to prevent him from having any wrong intentions.

It's really strictly guarded...

Lu Jing slandered in his heart, and put on a submissive expression on the surface, covering his head and face.

"It's a pity that I can see through, and a mere layer of cloth is useful!"

The three supported him and jumped down from the cave.

Lu Jing pretended not to see, and observed the whole picture of the underground cave through the mask.

But I saw that the karst cave was like a winding and circling giant dragon, with many trails extending in all directions inside, surrounded by gurgling water and humid air.

The scenery inside the cave is even more strange.

Under the illumination of the three-person torches, all kinds of precious stones and jades are colorful, and the stalactites are like sculptures and sculptures. There are thousands of scenes, some are like waterfalls flowing down, and some are like blooming white lotuses...

The four turned around in the maze.

Lu Jing watched helplessly as the three of them led him around several times before leading him to the deepest cave and taking off his mask.

Lu Jing saw the stone formation.

There are grotesque rocks in the formation, and 28 two-foot-high hills lie across them, revealing a spooky atmosphere, and faint mist floating from the rocky mountains, it is really confusing and unreal!

Wu Hao said: "This is the Stone Formation, please Master Jijiu to help..."
