Chapter 404

"Amazing, right?"

Just when Xiao Yun was amazed by the scene in front of him, Kong Guanjun's voice came from behind him.

He proudly introduced it to Xiao Yun: "Here, we call this phenomenon of rising tide in the stream 'rhinoceros turning over'!"

"It is said that the source of this stream is an abyss, and there is a huge divine rhinoceros there that sleeps in the water all year round and practices cultivation."

"The rhinoceros has a habit of turning over three times every day and night, so every time it turns over, the water from the abyss will overflow, thus causing the river to swell."

Xiao Yun asked curiously: "Has anyone ever been to the source of this creek?"

Kong Guanjun was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said: "No, this stream flows from deep. No one dares to go that far."

"But I do think this legend is not groundless!"

Kong Guanjun said with a mysterious look: "This creek is very magical. When the tide comes, the color of the water will change depending on the season."

"If it's a dry season, the water will be turbid, like a sudden torrent; if it's rainy, the blue waves will be rippling, like a rushing clear stream."

"Moreover, there is a creek near it, and the color of the water changes depending on the season, but it is just opposite to the color of this creek!"

"If there wasn't some kind of mythical beast deep in the mountains and at the source of the stream, how could there be these wonders?" Kong Guanjun said with awe.

Xiao Yun didn't believe what he said, but he really couldn't think of the reason why the creek would have tidal phenomena, so he couldn't help but be even more curious about the depths of Shennongjia.

Thinking about it, he said to Kong Guanjun: "Let's rest for a while and then continue moving forward."

Hearing this, Kong Guanjun was stunned and asked with some surprise: "Why don't you stay here for a while, take pictures or something?"

In his opinion, Xiao Yun and his group were just young backpackers who liked adventure and were looking for excitement. They invited him to be their guide. They just wanted to go deep into Shennongjia and take some photos to show off.

But now, when they arrived near the Ghost Cave, they didn't show any sign of coming to play.

Xiao Yun glanced at him and knew what he was thinking, so he said frankly: "We are not here to play, please take us a little further inside!"

Hearing this, Kong Guanjun couldn't help but become suspicious, and he couldn't figure out what this group of young people were doing here.

Thinking that there was a woman who looked like a witch among them, Kong Guanjun looked at Xiao Yun warily and said, "That's not possible. If you go further inside, you will be deep in the mountains. It is very dangerous!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yun rolled his eyes and explained: "Actually, we are in the medicinal materials business. We just want to go deep into the mountains to see if there are any good medicinal materials."

Sure enough, after hearing this explanation, Champion Kong's vigilant expression disappeared, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's it..."

There are indeed many good medicinal materials in Shennongjia that cannot be seen outside. Looking at the clothes these young people are wearing, they are not ordinary, but they look like medicinal medicinal merchants who are doing a good business.

Champion Kong continued: "It's not easy to find a good place for medicinal herbs. You have to walk there for another half an hour!"

"But it will be dangerous if you go further inside. I can't guarantee whether you will encounter any ferocious beasts. Are you sure you want to continue going in?"

Xiao Yun nodded, "Yeah."

Seeing that Xiao Yun was very sure that he must go into the mountains, Kong Guanjun could only sigh and said seriously:

"Okay, but if you continue to walk in, you must obey my command. If I tell you to go, go again. If I tell you to stop, stop immediately. Don't mess around!"

"This is natural. If something goes wrong, we can just go back." Xiao Yun responded.

The two returned to the team, and Xiao Yun simply told Hu Yueping that he would rest for a while and then continue walking in to see if he could find any good medicinal materials.

After all, what he told Qin Jingshan was the purpose of his trip to the mountain, which was to find medicine.

Hearing this, Xiao Liu made a "cut" sound, and while rubbing his legs, he complained: "Besides trees, there may not be anything good that can be found in this damn place..."

"I think if we follow you here and mess around, our efforts will be in vain, right?"

Chi Hong frowned and shouted coldly: "Hey, what are you talking about?! If you don't want to, don't follow me!"

Seeing this, Hu Yueping pretended to scold: "Xiao Liu!"

Xiao Liu groaned and lowered his head, but he still looked unconvinced.

The corners of Hu Yueping's lips curled up slightly. After looking around, he stood up, straightened his clothes, and said, "We've all rested, let's continue walking inside!"

After hearing this, the group of people stood up one after another and put on their backpacks. Kong Guanjun continued to lead the way and set off towards the depths of the mountain.

As the group of people continued to go deeper, the surrounding trees became more and more lush. The tall tree crowns could almost block out the sky and the sun. Even the weeds under their feet were extremely strong.

Xiao Yun and Wu Fenglai walked side by side and asked in a low voice: "Have we deviated from the direction to the Spirit Girl Cult now?"

Wu Fenglai glanced at him, smiled sinisterly, and said: "Humph, it's still early, we haven't even come close to the depths of the mountain!"

Xiao Yun frowned slightly and said nothing more.

At this time, Kong Guanjun, who was opening the way in front, gradually slowed down and looked very alert.

Every time he walked, he would stop and carefully observe his surroundings.

Sometimes I squat down and check the soil on the ground to see if there are any traces of wild beasts. Sometimes I use the woodcutter in my hand to poke the haystack in front of me to see if there are any poisonous snakes entrenched in it.

Chi Hong admired Kong Guanjun’s cautious attitude very much.

However, Xiao Liu rolled his eyes disdainfully, curled his lips and muttered: "Hey, what are you pretending to be? I've been walking for a long time, and I haven't even seen a hare, let alone a beast.

Got it!"

"His speed is slower than that of a turtle! We probably won't be able to find anything even after dark!"

Although Xiao Yun did not make sarcastic remarks like Xiao Liu, he was still a little anxious in his heart.

After all, according to Wu Feng, they are not close to the mountains yet. If they continue at the current speed, it will be dark before they can find a village where they can stay.

Since we have come this far today, Xiao Yun naturally does not want to give up halfway and go back.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yun had no choice but to cough lightly and tactfully urged Kong Guanjun to move faster.

Kong Guanjun glanced at Xiao Yun angrily and said: "Of course I can go faster, but the faster you go, the greater the chance of something happening to you!"

"After all, I led you into the mountain. I don't want to ruin my own reputation!"

Hu Yueping also said with a false smile: "Mr. Xiao, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

Hearing this, Xiao Yun scratched his head and head anxiously, but he didn't know what to say.

After all, neither Kong Guanjun nor anyone else knew the true purpose of his trip to the mountains. Therefore, they could not help but feel that if they went into the mountains today and did not find precious medicinal materials, they would have to return the same way and come back tomorrow.

With no other choice, Xiao Yun could only follow Kong Guanjun's pace with a grimace and slowly advance deeper into the mountain.

I don’t know how long I walked, but Champion Kong suddenly stopped and said happily: “Quick, quick, quick, come and see, what is this?”
