Chapter Forty-Three

The turbulent river suddenly raised the waves of water more than meter high, but the boat under us couldn't help but split. Senior Brother Daoren Jia tried his best to support the hull so that the boat would not overturn into the river. I could only lie on the stern of the boat. In this dangerous scene, I could hardly even stand steadily, let alone help Senior Brother Daoren Jia row the boat.

But the master still stood solemnly at the bow of the boat, standing steadily there, without moving, as if the hurricane and waves could not have any effect on him, as if standing on the flat ground, calm and composed!

"Click!Click!"

"not good!"

The senior brother Jia Daoren, who was riding the boat, suddenly shouted, and I looked at it in a hurry. Sure enough, the hull was splitting little by little, and the crisp breaking sound hit my nerves one after another. I looked up and saw that it was at least three or five feet away from the opposite shore, and our hull was in the turbulent position in the center of the river.

"Just rowing, don't worry about anything else, don't worry about it!"

The master glared at his senior brother, Daoren Jia, and said lightly.

"yes!"

Senior brother Jia Daoren focused his attention and immediately buried his head in continuing to row, but the more he became more divided, the severity of the seepage in it was increasing, and our feet and even the ankles were already soaked in the river water that seeped in.

But the more anxious Dao Ren Jia was, the less he could control the direction of the ship. The ship kept rushing downstream along the river. Dao Ren Jia could only approach the opposite shore little by little, but we had already washed down at least three miles from the upstream.

"Buzz! Buzz!!"

Not far away, a huge wave rushed towards him. Seeing this scene, the master shouted: "Stop the ship and let's dive!"

"thump!"

As soon as the master finished speaking, he jumped in. Senior brother, Daoren Jia, followed the master's figure and jumped down. I hesitated for a moment, gritted my teeth, and shouted: "Master! I'm here!"

I opened my mouth and took a deep breath. I also followed my master and senior brother and jumped in. The turbulent whirlpool swept me in one go, turning straight to the deep water layer of the river. I struggled hard, but the more I used my force, it was swept deeper and could not extricate myself. Just as I held my breath to the point of collapse, my arm sank, and I felt a palm grabbing me heavily and pulling me out-

"puff……"

I opened my mouth and sprayed a ball of river water. I coughed dryly for a long time, then collapsed on the shore, gasping for a lot of breath. When I looked up, I found that the person standing beside me was not the master, but the one who was always called the cheapest senior brother by me. I looked at Jia Daoren in a slight surprise, but when I saw Jia Daoren smiled at me, he said, "It's okay now, we are already at the foot of Jiulong Mountain."

"Thank you, senior brother!"

From the bottom of my heart, I called out to Daoren Jia, and then sighed softly: "Senior Brother, I have always been suspicious of you, but you are in a critical moment..."

"Haha! Junior Brother Xiaojiu, I know you suspect that I killed Lao Shidan and the old shadow man, and I also suspect that I pretended to be, right? Actually, this cannot be blamed for you, because I also doubt that it is my clone, because he pretended to be me...it looks so much like..."

Daoren Jia smiled bitterly, then shook his head coldly, and then said, "Although I still don't know the identity of that person, I can be sure that he must be a person I am very familiar with, otherwise I wouldn't know all my habits. Even the big sword he used was surprisingly similar to my Xuanwu sword!"

"No matter what, I want to thank you, senior brother. Not only did I not care about my misunderstanding of you, but I also saved my life regardless of my life. I will never forget this kindness for my life!"

I staggered and stood up, bowed respectfully to Daoren Jia with fists, and then said, "Senior Brother, why haven't you seen Master? Where is he now?"

"Yes! I'm also wondering, he should have gone ashore before us, why did he disappear?!"

The senior brother helped me up and looked around in confusion, feeling helpless.

"Senior Brother! Could it be that the master was washed down by the flood?!"

I looked at Daoren Jia in shock and said in a daze.

"Haha! You damn thing! Where are you running?!"

Suddenly, in the distant valley, the familiar voice of the master came from the master. Daoren Jia and I looked at each other and looked for the source of the sound. This place was a valley on the shady side of Jiulong Mountain. When we got closer, we were covered by a thick layer of gray and white mist. The more we walked forward, the more we could see the path.

The flood behind us became increasingly heavy, and soon wet our shoes. We had no choice but to speed up our pace. However, the flowers, plants and trees in front seemed to be flooded with water, which was particularly wet and cold. Moreover, these grass leaves could feel the scorching pain, a slashing feeling when they touched the skin.

"Junior brother, these aquatic plants are poisonous, maybe because of the fog around them. Well, these fogs are also strange. We should be careful when we walk!"

Daoren Jia took off the Xuanwu Sword and cut off the thorns along the way with force. The road ahead became more and more difficult to walk. But thinking that the master was inside, we had to find it.

"Master?! Where are you?"

As I walked, I shouted loudly at Master, but the thick fog that was constantly increasing ahead could not see anything clearly, let alone searching for Master’s traces.

Inexplicably pinched a protective finger technique, but there was no sense of sensation. I asked Daoren Jia in surprise: "Senior brother, why can't I make a finger technique? Moreover, the yin energy here seems to be getting heavier and heavier!"

"Um?"

Daoren Jia wrinkled, stopped immediately, then put a Tiangang handprint, and said slightly shocked: "Yes! Why can't the righteousness of heaven and earth be sensed here? Where is this?!"

"This place is the most yin place at the bottom of Jiulong Mountain!"

Suddenly, the figure of Master rushed out from somewhere, appeared in front of us for no reason, and said coldly, but his body was covered in mud, his hair and clothes were very messy. I almost opened my mouth wide and asked blankly: "Master, what have you encountered? How did you become like this?"

"Oh, Master just killed a water ghost, so he made it so embarrassed, haha!"

The master shook his clothes easily, and looked at the dirt on his body, and seemed very happy.

"Uh... Uncle Master, with your old Taoist practice, deal with a water ghost, will it be like this?"

Daoren Jia looked up and down at the master, then patted his forehead and smiled bitterly.

"Hmph! You two bastards, if you don't believe me, you can try it. Maybe you're not as good as me!"

The master blew his beard and glared at Daoren Jia.

But when I heard that Dao Ren Jia was also called a bastard by his master, I was immediately happy. In terms of age, Dao Ren Jia was an old man in his fifties and sixties, but in front of his master, he could only be measured by a "boy". However, in comparison, no one can compare with his master's age, and his age in his eighties is no less than that of young people. This is also a rare among his peers!

In short, in my eyes, Master is almost a legend.

"Try it? Uncle Master, why should we try it? Since we have arrived at the foot of Jiulong Mountain, we will go up the mountain to rest for a while, and then return to Youlong Town when the water level of Qingshui River goes down. Why can't we get along with this valley?"

Daoren Jia walked forward in confusion and reached out to tease the rich fog. Strangely, there were dark clouds outside, and the raindrops as big as beans were getting bigger and bigger. However, this place seemed to be a place beyond the world. Not only did there not raindrops fall, but there was also a little light in the gray and white fog, allowing us to vaguely see the things in a small space.

"Nonsense! Where do you think you can get to Jiulong Mountain?!"

The master gave Dao Ren Jia anger a blank look, found a smooth rock and sat down, and carefully took out the black iron heavy sword and sat with the sword.

After hearing what the master said, Daor Jia and I immediately groped around to explore the path to the mountain. Soon, we were both dumbfounded. The mountain walls on both sides were extremely steep, and there was not even a climbing place. What's more serious is that the flood outside the valley entrance was still rising, and it was almost blocked at this moment. I am afraid that the flood outside would flow backwards in a short while.

The situation is very serious!

"Uncle Master, there is no way to go up the mountain!"

Daoren Jia searched for a long time, and finally returned to his master and said blankly.

"Now are you still thinking about how to get to Jiulong Mountain?"

The master blew his beard and asked angrily.

"Is it... the only way to Jiulong Mountain is this valley?!"

Daoren Jia wrinkled and said helplessly, "I can understand Daoren Jia's concerns. The place is extremely yin energy, and the master just dealt with a water ghost inside. He didn't know that there were other mountain spirit ghosts in this strange valley, so he definitely didn't want to walk through this valley without any need."

"Well! This place is the most yin land of Jiulong Mountain, but it is also the only way to the top of Jiulong Mountain. Perhaps this is our disaster. If you want to live, you have to fight this strange valley..."

The master stood up lazily, raised the Xuan Iron Sword and said, "I just reached more than ten feet apart in front, but I had no choice but to retreat. Now that we are all here, we can make a breakthrough head-on!"

"Traveling? Master, is it necessary to use such serious words? Can you only walk more than ten feet with your old Taoist practice?!"
