Chapter 2 Difficulty Traveling

Shen Yuanjing walked a long way before finding a mountain, catching a hare, roasting it and eating it. He picked a few more wild fruits, poured a Hulu Mountain Spring, and stocked it up.

After a while, he spread out a map and looked carefully. According to the lake just now, he met through the middle of the Yunzhou Mountains.

He has been walking for more than twenty days. Although he has traveled all the way, he still has to go up much faster than ordinary people. He has only walked halfway through this, which shows how vast the mountains are.

However, this is also the fastest way from Yunzhou to Pingzhou. Ordinary people go around the Yunzhou Mountains, and it may take half a year to reach Chengping County. If the weather is not good, it is not uncommon for eight months.

If you walk this mountain road alone, as long as the road is safe, it will be slower and three months, and two months will be enough if it is fast. As for the caravan, it is hard to say. The road is too difficult and the risk is too great. Few people have regarded this road as a commercial road before.

He took out his pen, dipped it in ink, and painted the journey of the past few days on paper. Then he nodded with satisfaction and set out to find Yunzhongshan, the highest in Yunzhou and the title of "South Heaven Pillar".

Yunzhong Mountain is in the southern part of the Yunzhou Mountains. Shen Yuanjing walked for five days before he arrived. I don’t know how much effort the first person to come here took. He looked up at the foot of the mountain and could only see the lower half, and the rest was in the clouds.

There was no ready-made path to go up the mountain, so he could only follow the stones and climb one by one. The small half of the road ahead was not so slanted, and the more you went back, the more steep the mountain became. He had to use his light skills and jump from one stone to another. At this time, he remembered the flying divine claws of Taoist Chongxu.

Although his physical skills were not difficult, it was not that easy. At that time, his martial arts were low and he had not noticed it. When he returned this time, he could easily feel that the Bai Yu world was "heavy". If the martial arts mastered from Xiao Ao were not adjusted, it would be a bit stunning when he used it.

He tried all kinds of martial arts one by one, but his internal strength seemed to be unchanged. His sword skills were no longer perfect than before. His body skills had the greatest impact. So these days, he used his light skills to travel, so he adapted a lot.

As he gradually moved up, not only were there no trees, but the stones were rarely exposed outside, and snow was everywhere, making it harder to walk. Several times, the snow hung above him. He held his breath, did not dare to make a sound, and was worried that he had no place to focus, so he couldn't get up and went around very far.

He changed into a cotton coat brought out from Xiao Ao, and he started to use Ming Yugong all the time. The air became thinner and thinner, and he gasped and shouted louder. He practiced for a few days before he got used to it, breathing as if he was alive.

The peak should be three thousand feet high. Looking from the top down, I don’t feel that it is high. Except for the surrounding hills, the rest of the places are vast, like snow.

Shen Yuanjing stayed here for two days, but there were no flowers and plants, and there were no birds and animals. He could only watch the red sun in the morning and the bright stars at night to relieve loneliness.

After he came down the mountain, he walked around for a few days before returning to the avenue. After walking forward for only one day, he arrived at the widest part of the road in the middle of the Yunzhou Mountains. According to the map signs, two days are enough to walk out.

Unfortunately, a heavy rain fell, and the ground was muddy, which stopped him from moving forward. He searched for a cave and stayed in it for a long time. Suddenly, the flood flooded. He had to climb up the mountain in the rain, searched for a convex rock halfway up the mountain, and hid for a day.

When the clouds cleared and the rain cleared, the clouds shone everywhere. As soon as the rain arrived, it took three days to go. He then looked out the map and saw the notes above: "In the middle of the mountain range, the road is the widest. May sings and rainstorms fall on the rainy day. It takes half a month to stop and the ground is dry."

Shen Yuanjing sighed. If he had known earlier that it was May, he would have come back early after seeing Yunzhongshan and ran out of the rain area quickly.

The rain was too heavy, and he did not dare to look for the path forward rashly. If he got lost, it would take time instead. He had to take advantage of the heavy rain to find a cave on a mountain not far from the road, clean it up, and then make a few stones, put them into stone beds, prepare several tables and stools, and live here.

It took another half a month before the rain stopped. After three days of sunshine, the road finally dried up. Shen Yuanjing then packed up his parcel and came out of the hole. He looked at the map carefully and found that within March, there would be no more rain, hail, heavy snow and other weather on the road ahead.

Before leaving, he was having fun, picked up a stone, engraved three big words at the entrance of the cave: "Hide on the Rain", and marked it on the map.

Two days later, as the map said, the mountain road narrowed again. After walking forward for seven or eight days, it was the mouth of the gourd, and the mountain surrounded the road into a gourd. After passing this place, there will be another good road.

He stepped up his pace and walked around a few turns. He was about to enter the "Gourd Belly". Suddenly he heard a shout in front of him. After listening carefully, there were weapons and weapons.

He slowly leaned over and looked out. First, there were the backs of three men in black standing not far away, blocking the way. Further ahead was the Xu family convoy, fighting with a group of men in black.

These men in black were just dressed in black, with no cover on their faces. The number was not large, only thirty or fifty people, but they were all extraordinary. Often, four or five guards from the Xu family could hold up one person, and there would be more damage.

Shen Yuanjing thought, "These people are obviously prepared. The intersections in front and behind are narrow. They only sent a few people to guard both ends, and the people inside cannot rush out. However, the Xu family should have offended people. Not only did they sneak through this deserted mountain path, but they were also chased here. The matter is unknown, so I should not meddler."

He leaned against the stone wall and watched the fighting inside, sighed in his heart: "After all, there is a world where martial arts is the most respected, and any person has no bad kung fu. Everyone in black can stand up to the elite disciples of Shanghua Mountain. Xu Yang has a high Genming level, and Xu Ming looks better, and he is almost the same as Yu Canghai or Songshan Taibao. But his opponents are also powerful, and both sides are equal."

Xu Ming shouted again and again, but he could not escape the entanglement of the men in black in front of him. He could only watch his subordinates fall to the ground one by one. He felt desperate and looked back at the carriage. A little girl lifted up the curtain, exposed her head, and was pulled in again.

Shen Yuanjing saw the little girl's braids soaring into the sky from afar, and couldn't help but smile, recalling the scene when she first met Yue Lingshan. But even so, he didn't plan to intervene. In the more than ten years of Xiaonao World, he realized a truth that there are too many idle things in the world, so he can't control it and guard the people around him. Moreover, he can't tell who is right and who is wrong on both sides.

Just as he turned around and took a few steps back and was about to leave, the one guarding the middle of the three men in black at the intersection suddenly turned around and said, "Friend, are you going to leave like this?"

Shen Yuanjing turned around. He was about 30 years old in front of him. The eyebrows in the middle were thick, but his eyes were not big. He looked a little funny and was the leader. He did not deliberately hide his steps when he came, but it was not easy to be discovered by someone. He thought that this person's skills were not bad, and said, "I'm just passing by here and I have no intention of intervening in your dispute."

The man with thick eyebrows looked a little tender when he saw Shen Yuanjing's face raised, and became a little polite, and asked, "I wonder where boy, you are from? Why are you alone here?"

Shen Yuanjing was not willing to have too many entanglements: "But if you encounter one by one, there will be no connection in the future. You don't need to report your reputation or something. I'll say goodbye." After speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.

The more rude he was, the thick-browed man looked at him more and did not dare to stop him.

Suddenly, a shout came from inside: "Young Master Shen Yuanjing, these thieves are bandits from Shuangyue Mountain in Jingzhou. Please help me, and there will be a good reward!"
