10, enter the valley

At this time, King Dun appeared at the gate of Prince Qian's palace on horseback. In fact, King Dun went to Prince Qian's house to find Cheng Yuanjia in three days. People in Prince Qian's house were used to it. They didn't even have a notice at all. He went in by himself. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Cheng Yuanjia and Zhou Huan standing under the eaves talking, and King Dun's face was immediately a little uncomfortable.

In the two years since Zhou Huan left, this man has been a shadow in his heart. Thinking that he has been dealing with Cheng Yuanjia's letters and that he has always had a certain weight in her heart, he feels heavy.

Cheng Yuanjia also saw the king of Dun approaching on horseback. He hurried forward and briefly told Zhou Huan's return home.

"So you are also going to the Sword Soul Valley?" This is the only thing that King Dun cares about.

Cheng Yuanjia nodded and said, "I want to have a look. It is reasonable that the Sword Soul Valley is completely controlled by the Zhou family. No one will secretly harm the owner of the Zhou family, but now that the owner of the Zhou family is highly poisoned, this matter is not that simple."

"Okay, I'll go with you." King Dun did not stop Cheng Yuanjia's action, but made his own request.

Cheng Yuanjia was stunned and said, "Do you want to go with me?"

King Dun nodded seriously and said, "I wanted to go to the Sword Soul Valley. I always feel that that place is very important to me. This intuition is almost terrible. If I don't take a look in person, I will never feel at ease."

Cheng Yuanjia thought for a moment and turned to Zhou Huan and said, "It's okay for King Dun to go with him. I can ride with him. Without the drag of the carriage, the speed can be much faster."

Zhou Huan didn't think too much and immediately nodded and agreed.

As a royal county magistrate, Cheng Yuanjia, of course, can't be with Zhou Huan. Unless the situation is related to a special life, Zhou Huan will definitely be implicated by her. But there is no problem with the king of Dun. After all, the king of Dun is much higher than her in grade.

Immediately, the three of them rode two horses and took two rotating horses out of the city.

Before leaving, Cheng Yuanjia did not forget to ask Prince Qian to say hello to King Dun in front of the emperor, and said that King Dun went out to visit his friends. For this reason, the emperor will do whatever he wants. Anyway, King Dun has a title but no official position, and he is temporarily free.

Sword Soul Valley is 500 miles east of the capital. After leaving the east gate, it ran for two days before it finally arrived.

Revisiting his hometown, Cheng Yuanjia was also in a trance. Outside the originally barren valley, there were already dozens of sparse villages, all of which were reclaimed land, which was completely different from the barren valley abandoned by the world thousands of years ago.

Valley mouth is still the maze that has been changed by her, because this maze is naturally formed, and she has made some small changes to make the maze more esoteric, and at the same time pours the power of the surrounding mountains into it, although it has not been exhausted after thousands of years.

Zhou Huan greeted the disciples waiting at Gukou, handed over all the horses to him, and told him to take good care of them. After that, he took King Dun and Cheng Yuanjia into the maze.

In the eyes of the maze, it is extremely magical to outsiders, but as long as you rely on a set of footwork handed down from generation to generation, you can move forward and retreat freely in this array. This set of footwork has strong power even when facing the enemy. The only trouble is that the seniors must learn in this maze when they are at the beginning of school. Therefore, the Zhou family is not afraid that others will steal it. Without this confusion, even if they know the footwork, they can't learn it.

Zhou Huan asked King Dun and Cheng Yuanjia to follow his footsteps, and walked back and left and right in the array. After half a column of incense, not only was King Dun dizzy, but also Cheng Yuanjia, the inventor of the footwork, was a little dizzy. You should know that this footwork was originally used when she came out for Zhou Qianyun to enter. She flew in directly every time, so she never knew that this thing could have such a magical dizziness effect.

Fortunately, this maze is not big. It didn't take long for the two to faint, and they have already gone to the valley.

The Sword Soul Valley is not big, with a radius of more than ten miles, and half of the area is occupied by a huge mirror-like lake. It is often said that the scenery is picturesque, but how can the brush draw the beauty of the scenery here? Even if it is described as a fairyland on earth, it is not too much.

Zhou Huan pointed to the lake in front of him and said, "This is Jinghu. It is said that it is the favorite place of my ancestors of the Zhou family. The children of the Zhou family should protect the scenery here no matter what, and there must be no blasphemy..."

Zhou Huan said to himself, but he couldn't hear the response of the two people behind him, so he couldn't help looking back. Both of them frowned and looked thoughtful, but none of them paid attention to him.

When Cheng Yuanjia saw her hometown, she was naturally in a trance. This was the last time she saw Zhou Qianyun. So far, it was actually a separation of life and death. Since then, she has never come here again, afraid that she will be sad. Now that I'm stepping here again, the scenery is the same as before, but I'm no longer the person I used to be. Cheng Yuanjia couldn't help but feel sad.

King Dun was completely stunned. This was the first time he came here, but it made him feel very familiar. He was so familiar that he had lived here for a long time. He even felt that there should be a huge rock on the right. After turning his eyes, he found that there was a red rock standing there.

This inexplicable feeling made him feel creepy, and his mind was blank for a moment.

Zhou Huan stared at the two people who didn't give face, but in his identity, he couldn't accuse anything to his face. He shook his head depressedly and met the three elders who came from a distance.

In the Sword Soul Valley, Zhou Huan is the eldest son of the head of the family and the heir of the head of the family, so his status is quite high. Although he is not necessarily the most powerful person in the clan, he is definitely one of the most important people.

When he first stepped into the scope of the Sword Soul Valley, there was already news sent to the valley, and the three deacons and elders of the outer hall greeted him. For elders like them, the young master is the existence that they can't climb up. The Zhou family pays great attention to the maintenance of bloodline. Even if they are not a direct descendant, no matter how high their achievements are, they can't become the head of the family. Therefore, it is very amazing that the people of the last branch can be the elders.

Seeing Zhou Huan standing by the lake, the three elders stood still five feet away and bowed to him and said, "Welcome the young master. Please go to the main hall immediately. The elders are already in the main hall."

Zhou Huan nodded and said, "I'll go there immediately. Do the three elders know how my father is now?"

The three of them shook their heads together, and the man in the middle said, "The young master went over and saw that I couldn't get close to the inner courtyard, and I didn't know what the current situation of the owner is."

Zhou Huan just asked casually and didn't expect these three people to give themselves any answer at all. When he asked them, he had already pulled out his legs and went southeast, and Cheng Yuanjia and Dunwang also followed him.

The three elders also saw the two outsiders around Zhou Huan, but Zhou Huan's status was so high that they had no right to ask him about the people he brought, so they just didn't see them.

The Zhou family's manor in the Sword Soul Valley is, of course, based on the courtyard left by Su Ling, a large architectural complex that has been continuously expanded for hundreds of years. The main hall in the mouth of the three elders is located in the center of the complex, which is the house left by Su Ling. After all, Su Ling is a person from the world of cultivation. The courtyard she built casually is not comparable to that of mortals. Although after thousands of years, it is still as if it has just been completed. In addition, she arranged some hidden arrays around the courtyard at that time. Even if the array has been solved by the Zhou family, the spirit of immortals is still lingering in the courtyard. It looks very dusty. And the main hall also has a special function. Cultivation here is a little faster than outside, so the owners and core elders all live here.

Zhou Huan quickly ran to the main hall. Concerned about his father's illness, he forgot that there were still two people behind him who could not keep up with him. Cheng Yuanjia is a noble daughter anyway. Usually, she has to pay attention to her demeanor after crossing a threshold. How can she run like him at this moment? Although King Dun is very talented, his martial arts can only be described as flat. In the face of Zhou Huan's faster and faster pace, he can only sigh and walk slowly with Cheng Yuanjia.

Looking at Zhou Huan walking further and further, King Dun smiled bitterly at Cheng Yuanjia beside him and said, "Will we be kicked out by them if we walk like this?"

"I don't think so. At worst, I'll take off the veil to scare them." Cheng Yuanjia was not worried at all. He pointed to the veil on his face and said, "Maybe there will be unexpected results."

When Cheng Yuanjia was on her way, she pulled a veil on her face. On the one hand, it was to block the wind and sand, and on the other hand, it was to slightly cover her appearance that harmed the country and the people, so as not to cause trouble. However, in Jianhun Valley, her appearance may really cause something. After all, people here are very familiar with Su Ling's appearance.
