Immortality: Start Cultivating Immortality From Pingshan Mountain Chapter 80

Chapter 80 The Golden Crow Furnace Hundred-foot Earth Dragon in Shijun Mountain (please vote for me)

 Shijunshan.

 Located in the suburbs of Xiangyin, bordering Yueyang.

However, in the first year of the Republic of China, Xiangyin was still under the Changsha Prefecture of Changbaodao. In the third year of the Republic of China, it was changed to Xiangjiang Road.

 Coupled with the war and chaos in recent years.

 There has never been a clear geographical distinction.

 For ordinary people, everything from the north to Baini Lake belongs to Xiangyin.

And Shijun Mountain is on the bank of the big lake and along the river.

At this moment, the night is getting darker. Different from the bright lights and the bustling atmosphere of Changsheng Tower, a wooden boat on the river is slowly approaching the edge of Shijun Mountain.

 There was only a dim wind lantern hanging on the side of the ship.

The light and fire flickered.

More than ten figures were reflected.

 Everyone is dusty with travel, and their faces cannot hide their tiredness.

There is only one person at the front. He is tall and wearing short clothes. His eyes are as sharp as an eagle under his thick eyebrows.

“Shopkeeper Li, that's Shi Junshan.”

 “If you go further, you have to enter the Yueyang boundary.”

 Suddenly, someone spoke softly.

Li Shuguo, who was staring at the main peak of Shijun Mountain shrouded in the night, in a daze, did not look back, but just let out a hum.

 Starting from Chenjiazhuang to hunt for fire.

 In the blink of an eye, two days have passed.

 It may not seem long, but for him, not a single second can be wasted.

In two days, he took about twenty Chen family members and traveled almost all the mountains in Xiangyin.

 It's a pity that I got nothing.

His body was made of iron and he could barely hold on, but those guys were very tired.

 While climbing over mountains and ridges, I almost never closed my eyes.

How could Li Shuguo not understand the meaning of his words?

If you still can't find it after passing Shijun Mountain, you have to consider whether to go back to recover, or choose to go to Fengfeng Mountain to refine weapons.

 Just thinking about it.

 The big ship under her finally docked.

Li Shuguo didn't think much and waved his hand, “Brothers, get off the boat and try to finish your work as soon as possible.”

Hearing this, no matter how tired the gang was, they could only cheer up.

　　They each picked up torches and swords and jumped from the ship one after another.

 Before coming, Uncle Yu warned me again and again.

 The search for earthly fire was personally ordered by the shopkeeper.

If this thing is done well, the shopkeeper will never be stingy with rewards because of his magnanimity.

 But if it is not completed, it will still be delayed.

 If I were kicked out by then, I wouldn't know where to cry.

With his status as Zhuang Ding, he has no worries about food and drink. But in this world, finding such a job is as difficult as going to heaven.

He waited for everyone to get off the boat one by one.

Li Shuguo then picked up the bamboo basket and landed it on the stone beach.

Facing the night wind blowing from the river.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his sleepiness, and strode towards the mountain.

 A group of people followed closely behind, holding wind lanterns and walking through the dense forest, like a fire dragon walking through water.

 No matter what.

 Whether it is success or failure, there will be a result after tonight.

 Wait until halfway up the mountain.

Li Shuguo put down the basket on his back and took out a stove-like utensil.

 Things are not big.

 It's about the size of a palm.

Standing on three legs, it looks like a strange bird flapping its wings and about to fly.

Golden Crow, the sun bird in myths and legends, is also a folk symbol of fire.

The utensils are made of gold and copper.

 It is also vaguely combined with the fire and metal in the five elements.

For this reason, this thing is called the Golden Crow Furnace. It was used by geomancers of Feng Shui Kanyu in the past to find earth fire.

 The stove in his hand was inherited from his family.

When his family went south, my father used it to discover a natural fire pit in Yuhua Mountain, and then he decided to stop there. Twenty years later, Honeycomb Mountain became famous again.

This time to find earth fire for Chen Yulou.

Li Shuguo specially brought it out.

 See him take out the stove.

 The group of guys behind him were not too surprised. They were used to it all the way.

　　It is rather mysterious.

 But the stove has never turned on, and I don't know if it works well.

 Just when everyone was looking around.

 A slight buzzing sound suddenly sounded.

 Then, they saw a flame igniting out of thin air in the copper furnace Li Shuguo held in his hand.

 The mountain wind howled by.

 But it cannot be blown out.

 On the contrary, there is a tendency for the fever to become more intense.

"this…"

“What's going on? Why did it suddenly burn?”

“Is it the ground fire that shopkeeper Li mentioned?”

"I do not know."

 The group of people were all attracted by the fire in the stove, their faces full of surprise.

Although Li Shuguo had said once before that the furnace was used for surveying underground fires, no one had ever seen it with his own eyes.

Now, this sudden fire caught them by surprise.

  But it's different from the confused guy.

At this moment, under the firelight, Li Shuguo's tense face suddenly became extremely surprised.

His eyes were burning and his lips were trembling slightly.

  “Have it.”

"What?"

 “What's up?”

Hearing him muttering to himself, the guys next to him didn't dare to argue anymore. They all held their breath and didn't dare to breathe loudly for fear of disturbing him.

 “There is earth fire!”

Li Shuguo breathed out.

 He raised his head and grinned.

 After searching for two full days, almost without sleep, the Golden Crow Furnace finally responded.

 Before setting off, he specially studied the direction of the Xiangyin Mountains.

 The highest point is naturally the Qingshan Mountain where Changsheng Mountain is located.

Then there are Etou Mountain, Hubi Mountain and Baiya Mountain where Huodong Temple is located, which can all be regarded as big mountains.

 As for the hills, there are even more.

 According to past experience, earth fire often exists in high mountains.

 That's why he set his sights on Qingshan and Etou Mountain first.

 But after two days in a row, I have traveled almost all the way, but I haven't gained anything.

He is still followed by the Chen family.

 In the name of Changsheng Mountain.

 Otherwise, if he ran away like this, he would have been captured by the bandit warlords who were kings of the mountains.

Unexpectedly, this little-known Shijun Mountain has an underground fire hidden in it.

 “Earth fire!”

 “Shopkeeper Li, you're not joking.”

“Yeah, I don't see any fire on this mountain.”

"This is a major matter ordered by the head of the family, and there is no room for sloppiness."

Hearing this answer, the eyes of a group of guys lit up.

But he didn't dare to confirm completely, so he asked repeatedly.

 “Put your heart back into your belly.”

“This stove is an old item that has been passed down from my great-great-grandfather's generation. It was obtained from an earth energy master who is most sensitive to earth fire.”

See them looking confused and uncertain.

Li Shuguo smiled.

 When he talked about the origin of the stove, his face was filled with pride.

Earth masters can sense the movement of earth energy, survey the geographical situation of mountains and rivers, and even suppress the dragon veins.

 How can those deceitful Feng Shui masters in the world today compare?

"Then... Shopkeeper Li, where is the fire?"

 See him so confident.

The group of people didn't have the slightest doubt, and joy came to their faces.

“Yes, if you find the earth fire, you can return to Zhuangzi to pay your respects to the head of the family as soon as possible.”

“Shopkeeper Li, don't delay, we'd better find it as soon as possible, everyone can rest assured, right?”

They were in an anxious mood, so why not Li Shuguo?

 Even compared to these guys.

 He wished he could have set up a steel-making furnace one day earlier.

 What a great demon and fierce soldier.

 Things that only exist on the weapon spectrum.

 If it happens, then the name of Honeycomb Mountain will definitely be able to recreate the glory of his ancestors in his hands.

 Wrong.

 It's more than just a reappearance.

Even though my grandfather entered the Military Academy, his greatest achievement in his life was to improve the matchlock gun, but he was still thinking about it until he died.

 If he really made a demon weapon.

Tsk, tsk, the Li family tree has to put his name in the top three. The more he thought about it, the more excited Li Shuguo became. He was still a little bit sleepy. He carefully held the stove and followed the guidance, walking all the way to the depths of Shijun Mountain.

The guys are also feeling exhausted.

 After running around for two days, I finally got some news.

 Some people held up wind lanterns, while others raised knives to cut through the mountains.

 Looking silent, but in fact their fiery eyes revealed their emotions.

Wait around the front mountain.

 In the rugged and difficult-to-travel dense forest, the vision suddenly became clear.

 The mountains and forests seemed to have been wiped off the ground.

Only large chunks of exposed mountain rocks remain.

 “What's going on?”

“Shijunshan, Shijunshan, isn't that how it came about?”

"It's really strange. There are mountains and forests all the way, but when we get to the top, it's completely bare."

Hold up the lantern and look around.

 A group of guys looked like they had seen a ghost.

On the other hand, Li Shuguo, who had been holding the stove, looked at the fire in the stove that was getting hotter and hotter, and seemed to have noticed something, and his heart beat wildly with dissatisfaction.

 There is no time to think too much.

 The whole group rushed to the top of the mountain quickly.

His unusual behavior made everyone confused, but the search for the Earth Fire was all tied to him alone.

 It's another guest invited by the shopkeeper from all the way.

  No matter what, nothing can happen to Shopkeeper Li.

The group of people could no longer care about being surprised and quickly chased after him.

More than half a quarter of an hour later, they finally caught up with the subtle fire in front of them.

 Li Shuguo who traveled all the way.

At this moment, he was standing between the cliffs, raising his eyes and looking down.

 I don't know what I saw.

That silent face was full of joy.

 Under him.

It is a cracked sinkhole that seems to cut off Shijun Mountain.

The night wind howled by, but it was different from the water vapor at the bottom of the mountain. Standing here, he only felt a fire blowing against his face.

It was as if, deep in the crack, there was a fire burning from the ground.

 The guy behind him also noticed something was wrong.

They all ran up, stopped and looked down the mountain.

In the pitch-black sinkhole, streaks of fire emerged from the mist, reflecting the bottom of the mountain in fiery red.

 “Earth fire!”

 “It's really a fire!”

 “My God, how many years must this have been burning?”

 A group of people exclaimed.

Some people even subconsciously stretched out their hands to catch the sparks swept up by the wind.

But as soon as it touches the palm, the sparks gradually extinguish.

Only a pile of fine fragments, faintly warm ashes were left.

 That means Shijun Mountain is too high.

 The peaks like bamboo shoots on all sides cover the firelight.

 Otherwise such an astonishing ground fire would have been discovered long ago.

 But even so, looking at the fire at the bottom of the mountain, the group was still shocked beyond measure.

 “Go down and have a look.”

 Compared with their exclamation, Li Shuguo was only a little more surprised.

Across the cliff hundreds of meters away, the fire was so fierce that it was many times stronger than the ground fire in Yuhua Mountain.

He was even a little envious.

If my father had taken a boat from this river to go south, would the current Fengfeng Mountain have ended up in Shijun Mountain?

However, this thought only flashed through his mind.

 Now is the time to think about this.

With the earth fire, he can settle down and set up the furnace and refine the weapons as soon as possible.

 “Yes, Shopkeeper Li.”

 “Shopkeeper Li, slow down.”

Seeing him getting up and rushing down the cliff, a group of guys hurriedly stopped him.

“Shopkeeper Li, it's too dark today, so I'd better ask the brothers to go down and explore the way.”

As he spoke, without waiting for him to refuse, several of the guys quickly took out ropes and centipede hanging ladders from their backpacks, hung the wind lanterns on their shoulders, and flew down the cliff.

 See this scene.

Li Shuguo could only calm down.

 At the same time, he was secretly amazed.

I have long heard that Chen Yulou, the leader of Xiling in this generation, is very knowledgeable in armor and weapons.

 Integrating the advantages of other sects.

 Let Xiling develop to its peak.

 Now it seems that we can get a glimpse of it from the centipede hanging on the mountain ladder.

 The guys who came with me on this trip were all carefully selected by Uncle Yu.

One by one is agile, and he has a kung fu on his body.

 It only took less than ten minutes.

 A loud arrow shot up into the sky from below.

"coming."

“Shopkeeper Li, you can go down the mountain now.”

 Seeing the loud arrow rising through the clouds, the guys who were waiting above with Li Shuguo breathed a long sigh of relief.

"good!"

Li Shuguo grinned.

 Don't hesitate any more.

　　Put the Golden Crow Stove back into the basket on your back and hurry down the mountain along the centipede-hanging ladder.

 On a cliff of hundreds of meters.

 The flames floated slowly.

By the time he was halfway through, the fire in the air already made him feel like he was standing outside a steel-making furnace, and large beads of sweat were dripping down his forehead.

 But he didn't feel any discomfort at all.

 The smile on his face under the firelight grew stronger.

 The tiger returns to the mountain and the dragon enters the sea. He, Li Shuguo, was born to make a living in the fire.

Faced with the turbulent and manic fire.

 Three steps followed by two steps.

Li Shuguo went all the way into the depths of the sinkhole. The guy who came down first could not stand the heat at all and hid aside, only daring to watch from a distance.

 He didn't pay attention.

He just stared at the flames coming out of the caves and cracks in the rocks and grinned.

 Such a good ground fire.

 Don't ask him to hammer out a piece of secret gold.

Even Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace can burn out the golden elixir of immortality if placed here.

“Shopkeeper Li... this fire should be successful, right?”

 When he saw him, he was standing by the hearth.

 The faces of the gang were full of awe.

 A few dozen steps apart, they were all a little unable to hold on, they just felt like they were about to be roasted.

"become."

 “It's too good.”

“You can go back and inform shopkeeper Chen, and ask him to order someone to deliver the steel-making furnace and materials. Remember, the sooner the better!”

 Hear this.

Li Shuguo, who became more and more satisfied as he looked at it, couldn't help but look back and laughed.

 “Yes, I'll go right away!”

How dare a bunch of guys delay.

 Immediately, two people climbed up the mountain ladder to the outside of the mountain.

We went all the way down the mountain, riding in the night, and took a boat straight to Chenjiazhuang.

the other side.

 Upstairs in Changsheng.

 The atmosphere of the night banquet is more intense.

 Although only five people attended the meeting.

 No, four to be precise.

 After all, Yuan Hong is just an ape, but his drinking capacity is extremely amazing.

 According to it, apes are born to make wine.

In order to live a long and eternal life, when he was in Baiyuan Cave, he even sent his monkey grandson to collect elixirs at Laoxiong Ridge in Pingshan Mountain and blend them into Baiguo Wine. The resulting wine is worth a thousand dollars.

　　It will never get drunk after a thousand cups.

 Zhang Yunqiao is not bad either.

 Kunlun and Red Girl are even more numerous.

 Just in time, Chen Yulou drank like water.

 A simple night banquet, which lasted from sunset to midnight.

By the time Chen Yulou got up, opened the door and stood in the martial arts field to blow the wind, except for Kunlun who was still awake, Yuan Hong and Zhang Yunqiao had already fallen asleep.

 Dong dong dong!

Suddenly.

The silent night was broken by the rapid sound of horse hooves.

 A man from the Chen family rode up the mountain all night.

The moment he saw him, Chen Yulou thought something had happened in Zhuangzi.

However, when he turned over and dismounted, he could not hide the smile on his face.

 “As the boss, shopkeeper Li will send someone back to report.”

“He found a hundred-foot underground fire cave in Shijun Mountain and asked you to send the materials quickly.”
