Chapter 7: Distress in the Mountain

When Chen Rufeng woke up, a dazzling sun hurt his eyes.

Jiang Shengtian beside him helped him up anxiously, breathed a sigh of relief and scolded, "Isn't it? I told you not to touch it randomly."

Chen Rufeng shook his head and barely woke up.

The black stone has fallen to the ground, lying quietly like a sleeping child, and the golden brocade box is opened and covered upside down on the ground.

"What's wrong..." Chen Rufeng felt that his head was pressed on a heavy stone and pressed his temple with his hand, knowing nothing about the strange things that happened last night.

Chen Rufeng closed his eyes and tried his best to recall, but his head was blank.

Jiang Shengtian stretched out his hand to pick up the black yuan stone. As soon as Chen Rufeng saw it, he stopped it harshly, but it was too late.

His five fingers grabbed the black stone, but nothing changed.

Jiang Shengtian stared at Chen Rufeng puzzledly, putting the black yuan stone back into the brocade box and buttoned it. Chen Rufeng's face was full of sweat, staring at the golden box, as if he was on guard against a beast that would open its mouth at any time.

Chen Rufeng stood up in shock and took a deep breath before he felt something changed.

As soon as he stood up straight, he noticed a strange air flowing in his body, sometimes on his arms, sometimes in his abdomen, and sometimes in his thighs, which was extremely strange. Wherever the strange gas goes, it is hot and unbearable, as if you want to get out of the skin.

"Let's go... Get out of here quickly..." Chen Rufeng painfully pushed Jiang Shengtian out of the room with an inexplicable face.

Leaving the village, Chen Rufeng has been scratching all over his body. The strange anger on his body rushed to scratch everywhere, but he always couldn't stop the burning feeling.

Unconsciously, the two have stepped on a beautiful mountain, with lush forests, colorful waterfalls, hanging springs, and the sound of flowing water is like fairy music.

"What's wrong with you? It's weird all day." Jiang Shengtian asked when he saw Chen Rufeng's strange behavior.

Chen Rufeng gasped and replied, "I don't know. Now I feel that there seems to be a hot air going up and down all over my body. It's very hard."

His eyes fell on the spring beside the mountain road. He had an idea and said to Jiang Shengtian behind his back, "You wait here. I'll go down and have a good time first!" After saying that, he quickly took off his clothes and jumped into the mountain pool.

A cold bathed all over the skin, but the hot and swollen blood vessels in the body did not relieve at all. The hot and cold environment outside and inside ordered the body to suffer greatly.

The only comforting thing is that the strangeness no longer wanders around, but stays steadily in the lower abdomen. Chen Rufeng rolled dozens of times in the water, and finally reached out of the water to take a few deep breaths.

What's more amazing is that the breath was poured straight into the lower abdomen along the throat, just like being forcibly absorbed by the strange gas and integrated. Chen Rufeng looked down at the slight bulge of his lower abdomen, and then returned to its original state after a moment.

"What's going on?" Chen Rufeng said suspiciously, "Is it caused by the change of Heiyuanshi last night?"

"Ah--" Jiang Shengtian let out a scream resounding through the mountains. Chen Rufeng turned his head and was frightened to see Jiang Shengtian being wrapped like a huge snake like a hemp rope. A pair of frightening snake eyes shot out bursts of greed, spitting letters, and two deadly cold teeth shining brightly.

Jiang Shengtian has been scared to numb his limbs. He broke free several times and patted the snake's body, but he was still wrapped in the snake's body. When he was exhausted, he simply closed his eyes and bit his lips, looking like he was waiting to die.

Chen Rufeng has climbed to the shore quickly, put on his clothes while ambush, picked up a sharp stone the size of a human head, and hid by a big stone behind the giant snake. Then several arrows jumped behind the giant snake and raised the stone to smash it. Unexpectedly, the giant snake was extremely spiritual. He turned his head and stretched out his head threateningly to him, opening his bottomless blood mouth, which scared Chen Rufeng to dare not move forward.

The giant snake refocused its attention on the prey of the snake's body, and the snake's head opened its mouth and rushed to Jiang Shengtian's head.

Jiang Shengtian has made plans to meet the king of the world.

Chen Rufeng turned his head and couldn't bear to watch his brother buried in Shekou.

The roar suddenly rose.

A figure attacked like a god. In the confusion, he only saw a two-guan knife in his hand breaking through the air and cutting into the body of the snake. The giant snake screamed and waved its head to the man. The man snorted coldly, and the knife was shining loudly. He cut crisply and stunned the mountains, and the giant snake's head was different.

Under the bright sun, I saw a strong and powerful man standing in front of him. He was about 30 years old, with a small beard left on his chin, and his cheeks were red and swollen.

Jiang Shengtian, who escaped from death, broke free from the snake and crawled out in shock. His face was pale. He sat on the tree trunk beside him, closed his eyes, and gasped with lingering heart.

"Are you all right?" The strong man asked kindly, Jiang Shengtian just shook his head and couldn't say a word.

Chen Rufeng hugged his fist and said, "Thank you for saving me. May I ask your name?"

The strong man brushed his short beard and said, "I am the descendant of Wusheng Guan Yunchang, and Guan Xingyi is also."

"Sure enough, people are just like their names!" Chen Rufeng praised with a smile while looking at the knife in his hand. The knife was about ten feet long, the blade was cold, and the texture of the knife handle was clear, concave and convex, which was obviously a good weapon.

Seeing that he was very interested in his knife, Guan Xingyi introduced it with great interest: "This is a 'Sun-eating tiger knife' that imitates the 'green dragon moon knife' of his ancestor Guan Yunchang. It is almost a rare opponent for me to walk around the world. Little brothers, who are you?"

"Well, my name is Cheng Chaofeng. His name is Cheng Yuntian. Our two brothers are from Ningzhou. We wanted to visit a distant relative in Qianzhou, but we didn't know that we met a poisonous snake in this mountain. Fortunately, we met Brother Guan, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." Chen Rufeng was afraid of his identity, so he covered up his identity.

"Small meaning, small meaning!" Guan Xingyi waved his hand proudly and humbly. He walked to Jiang Shengtian under the tree and observed, "I'm afraid your brother is too shocked."

Chen Rufeng said worriedly, "I think so. It seems that he can't recover for a while.

Guan Xingyi patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid! Anyway, I'm going to Qianzhou. Since I'm on the same road, I'll be responsible for protecting you. Peace of mind!"

"I'm afraid this... this is not convenient..." Chen Rufeng hesitated, secretly wondering if Guan Xingyi knew that they were two well-known wanted criminals, I don't know if he would immediately tie them up and hand them over to the government for reward.

Guan Xingyi seemed to have agreed. He picked up the knife, walked in front of him, and shouted, "What's inconvenient? Let's go!"

Seeing this, Chen Rufeng had to work hard to help Jiang Shengtian, who had not returned to his position, and helplessly followed Guan Xingyi's back.

"Brother Guan... Our two brothers are not used to the noise of the big city. Can we avoid the town and only stay in the village?" Chen Rufeng gritted his teeth and thought that if Guan Xingyi did not agree to this request, he would go his separate ways.

Kuan Xingyi said boldly, "No problem! And I'm familiar with the roads in this area. With me, you don't have to worry about getting lost! Haha!" Like a big brother who shouldered the responsibility of taking care of his younger brother, he turned his head and smiled at Chen Rufeng, who supported Jiang Shengtian.

Chen Rufeng also swallowed, and a burst of inexplicable emotion surged into his heart, mixed with some guilt. Guan Xingyi was so righteous, but he had to deceive him, which was really helpless.

So, Guan Xingyi took the lead in the front, and Chen Rufeng and Jiang Shengtian marched slowly behind. During this period, Jiang Shengtian kept shivering.

In this way, the three of them climbed over the mountains and finally found a village to settle down when the sun pressed the mountain.
