When the old man surnamed Gu heard this, his face suddenly turned pale.
He was so angry that he directly raised the crutch in his hand and slapped it on Gu Xiaoba's butt.
"You brat, how many times has grandpa told you not to get close to Eagle Falling Valley, but you just don't listen, right?"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu I just miss my mother, can't I go see my mother..."
Gu Xiaoba was very aggrieved, his eyes were red, he clenched his fists with his small hands, and gritted his teeth to prevent his eyes from leaking out.
When the old man surnamed Gu saw this, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, and was about to faint, but suddenly he felt a stream of warm air entering his body from his chest, and then traveling into his limbs.
This tone finally calmed down.
The old man surnamed Gu came to his senses and hurriedly kowtowed to Qin Shaoyou again.
"Thank you so much, Master Immortal, for saving my life!"
Qin Shaoyou took back his palm and waved it calmly.
"Tell me, what's so unusual about this Eagle Falling into the Valley?"
Qin Shaoyou was not interested in the family affairs of the old man named Gu at all. If it weren't for the fact that he was injured at this moment, he would have directly used the soul search technique to look for clues.
But considering the old man's waning appearance, I'm afraid that the other party will be dead before he uses up his soul-searching skills.
The old man surnamed Gu sighed, and finally calmed down and said truthfully:
"Yingchui Valley is far away from the village, more than ten miles away. It was originally a lake, but an earthquake more than a hundred years ago cracked the entire bottom of the lake. Since then, only a deep lake has remained there.
pit."
"It is said that even if a ferocious eagle flies over there, it will fall into that pit!"
"So people here call it the Valley of the Eagle..."
"The year before last, the government came to the village to arrest young men for conscription into the army. It was at that time that the boy's father was arrested. But not long after, news came back from the front line that the boy's father had escaped and was caught, and the soldier leader had his head chopped off.
....”
"My miserable daughter-in-law couldn't bear such a blow, and within a few days she became insane, and for some reason she ended up near the Eagle's Fall Valley..."
"But the Eagle's Fall Valley is not a kind place. There were rumors in the early years that there are monsters there. Anyone who is close to the valley will be dragged into the valley by the monsters. It is said that several immortal masters have died there.
!”
"Hey... the old man's family is dead and scattered. Now only Xiaoqi and Xiaoba are left here to accompany me, the old man..."
The eyes of the old man surnamed Gu were already bloodshot. It seemed that even though he had gone through ups and downs for most of his life, he was still heartbroken and sobbing uncontrollably every time he thought of these sad things.
Qin Shaoyou's heart suddenly moved.
He sympathized with the family's plight, but it was just...sympathy.
As for the monsters the old man was talking about, he was a little interested. Generally speaking, spiritual plants such as heavenly materials and earthly treasures would grow in places with abundant spiritual energy, and these spiritual plants would attract some monsters.
Presumably, the monsters the old man was talking about must be monsters and their like.
Qin Shaoyou does need a place with abundant spiritual energy to restore his cultivation, but if there is danger in this place, then he still has to reconsider.
"Where is the Valley of the Eagle's Fall? Draw a route."
After Qin Shaoyou pondered, he spoke to the old man surnamed Gu.
The latter was shocked when he heard this, but he still rubbed his eyes and started making gestures on the ground with his crutch.
Not long after, the route to Eagle Falling Valley was completed. Qin Shaoyou read it carefully and wrote it down silently.
"I have taken note of it."
Qin Shaoyou had a flash of inspiration, and a brand new set of clothes appeared on his body. Then, he flicked his sleeves, and a simple-looking cloth bag was scratched on the old man's crutch.
"I never owe others any favors. There are some yellow and white things in this bag. Please accept them."
Qin Shaoyou left for the old man named Gu, apart from some broken gold, there were also two rejuvenation pills.
This rejuvenation pill is used to heal injuries for immortal cultivators, but for mortals, it is used to extend life.
Qin Shaoyou has already examined the body of the old man surnamed Gu before. If nothing happens, this man will only have a year and a half to live. But if he takes the rejuvenation pill given by Qin Shaoyou, he can survive for at least ten or eight years.
"Also, there are two healing pills here that can cure your hemoptysis. This is my reward for you."
"When I recover from my injuries, I will go to Yun Qingcheng!"
After speaking, Qin Shaoyou walked out of the house with a swish, and then a flash of inspiration occurred in front of the house, and he completely disappeared into the rain.
In the house, only a pair of grandfather and grandson were left, sighing to the west wind.
....
The more than ten miles of mountain road may take a whole day for those mortals, but for Qin Shaoyou, he found the location of the Eagle's Fall Valley in no less than a meal.
There was a drizzle floating over the valley, and the valley below was like a dark abyss, with a huge mouth open, and the whistling wind could be heard in the mouth. It was especially gloomy in the drizzle that was approaching the end of the night.
Qin Shaoyou stood on the top of the mountain and looked down.
The valley is very deep, with rugged rocks below, and the dense rain and fog gathering together, like another sea of clouds.
He just let go of his spiritual thoughts, looked down, passed through layers of obstructions, and finally saw some animal carcasses on a boulder.
These should be animals such as antelopes and mountain wolves. Judging from the signs at the scene, they were mostly caused by a slip and a fall.
His spiritual thoughts went down dozens of feet, and he saw clusters of long grass as thin as willow leaves. The dewdrops on the tips of the grass blades were crystal clear, and between these grass blades, he also saw
One or two brightly colored flowers.
Spirit-seeking grass!
Qin Shaoyou's eyebrows lit up with joy, that child really didn't lie!
The place where the spirit-seeking grass grows is no more than ten feet above the ground. On a clear day, it must be visible from above.
"That's right, there must be spiritual veins here!"
Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but feel a little excited at the thought of spiritual veins, and then his spiritual mind continued to explore downwards. It didn't take long for him to see the bottom of the valley.
At the bottom of the valley was a pool with some algae floating on it, and right on the edge of the pool, he saw a lot of human skeletons!
These bones were piled up in a haphazard manner, forming a high tomb. In the dim light, there seemed to be light blue will-o'-wisps floating around.
Seeing this scene, Qin Shaoyou immediately became alert.
The human corpses piled up like this are definitely not some beasts without intelligence, but more likely a monster whose intelligence has been enlightened!
Just when he was about to explore around, he suddenly realized that there was a shadow rushing behind his spiritual thoughts. It was like a long whip, and it struck his spiritual thoughts in the air, shouting
There was a crisp sound.
But when the sound came up from the valley, it was whimpering and rumbling like a wild beast roaring.
With one whip, Qin Shaoyou's spiritual thoughts were immediately dispersed, but he still saw the other party's appearance before this ray of spiritual thoughts completely disappeared.
"God-binding vine?!"
Qin Shaoyou was stunned at first, and then immediately became happy.
The God-Binding Vine is a rare spiritual grass that is extremely sensitive to the spiritual thoughts of monks. It is one of the very few that can directly attack the ethereal spiritual thoughts of immortal cultivators!
This object is the ultimate nemesis of the spiritual incarnation of monks in the realm of gods!
As far as Qin Shaoyou knows, this kind of God-binding vine should also be an ancient fairy grass, and it should have become extinct long ago. Unexpectedly, I saw it in the Eagle Falling Valley!
"It's a blessing in disguise. It seems that we are in the right place!"
Qin Shaoyou's heart moved, and he jumped up and disappeared under the mist!
We walked all the way down the mountain wall, and after a few moves we landed at the bottom of the valley.
The water vapor here is very strong, and the surrounding mountain walls are covered with moss and unknown vines.
Just when he appeared, the vines on the mountain wall began to squirm quickly as if they had been stimulated by something. Qin Shaoyou remained motionless and raised his hand to create a ball of crackling lightning.
He smiled faintly, turned his palm and clapped it down, and the lightning struck the pool.
The next moment, thunder exploded, and the entire Eagle Falling Valley was filled with the power of thunder and lightning. The God-Binding Vine, which was still sneaking around and ready to attack, was immediately frozen in mid-air.
Qin Shaoyou's eyes were wide-eyed at this moment, and he gathered his spirit into electricity, like a god of thunder came to the world!
The God-binding vines that were about to attack him were not their true form, but just clones, so he immediately looked around, trying to find out where the true form was.
Sure enough, for a moment, his eyes were fixed in a certain direction.
There was a cave there. There was no light in the cave and it was pitch black. But in Qin Shaoyou's eyes, it was as bright as day and there was no hiding in it.
"I see!"
Qin Shaoyou's body swayed and he flew in with a swish.
The cave is not deep, and you will reach the bottom after entering about three feet.
In the deepest part of the cave, Qin Shaoyou saw the remains of several monks.
The cultivation level of these monks should not be high, so after their death, the corpses were not returned to the ruins. On the corpse of one of the monks, Qin Shaoyou saw the true form of the God-binding vine: a golden vine the size of a thumb!
It was this thing that, nourished by spiritual energy over the years, developed a part of its independent consciousness. It split into dozens of clones, which were densely distributed at the bottom of the valley.
Whenever an animal or human race approaches the Eagle Falling Valley, it will control those clones to rush out of the valley bottom and drag those "prey" in to become its nourishment.
But this time, the God-binding vine must have been planted.
Qin Shaoyou looked overjoyed and picked up the God-Binding Vine without hesitation.
Because he is filled with the power of thunder and lightning, he is currently the only nemesis of the God-binding vine, so when Qin Shaoyou picked it up, he did not resist at all.
And just after Qin Shaoyou took the God-binding vine in his hand, the vines of the clones outside the cave withered on the spot one by one, turning into dead leaves and falling into the pool.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Qin Shaoyou made a sound of surprise, and then turned around and looked at another corner of the cave.
There, there is a stone gate. Although the stone gate has been cracked, you can still vaguely see the appearance of a cave.
