Chapter 195 - The Dragon's Eye Tomb

Jiang Luo read the message through and his brow furrowed.

Wen Renlian also came to Dawu Mountain with his men. He did not come alone, but with a special unit sent by the state to investigate Dawu Mountain, as well as the learned Qi Ye, Ge Zhu, Ye Xun, and Lu Youyi, who had heard that Jiang Luo had been wounded and had to come and see him.

They arrived a day ahead of Jiang Luo and had already made a quick check of Dawu Mountain. The dragon's eye was so unpredictable that the special forces, made up of ordinary men, found no trace of it. But the troops were lurking in the forest, ready to support Jiang Luo.

Jiang Luo replied, "We arrive at Dawu Mountain at 5pm tomorrow."

When writing the report to the State, Jiang Luo made his situation clear. After discussing the matter, the higher-ups gave Jiang Luo instructions to assist him fully.

Jiang Luo is the head of the state department, and the stronger he is, the greater the advantage the state has in its plans to clean up the metaphysical world. According to Jiang Luo, there is an unknown catastrophe ahead for the occult community. In order to survive this catastrophe, the state will do its best to provide Jiang Luo with everything he needs to take the initiative in the event of a catastrophe.

Wen Renlian quickly got back to him with a new message, "Although the troops did not find the location of the Dragon's Eye, we did find the approximate range. I have to say that you made the right decision to put Qi Ye in the Research Bureau."

Wen Renlian sent Jiang Luo the approximate location of the dragon's eye, within a radius of about two hundred metres. Don't look at the two hundred metre radius, it's already a very big deal. The Dragon's Eye is the most spiritual part of the whole Dragon's Vein, it moves around, has no fixed location and its movements are erratic, so it is not easy to find. Once someone wanted to find the Dragon's Eye of the Kunlun Mountain Dragon Vein, but a team of thirty people was assembled and searched for a year without finding it.

Jiang Luo was amazed and delighted, and praised them all over again.

With the help of his buddies and the country, Jiang Luo slept wonderfully that night and was up at 5am the next morning.

The restaurant on the ground floor was already full of people and there were many breakfast items on the table. Jiang Luo casually ate some and looked at the several large bulging backpacks placed next to the table and asked, "Is this something for us?"

Guide Wang swallowed a mouthful of bun, "Yes, it's all yours, we'll split it up after dinner later."

It was only after breakfast that the evil spirit arrived late, and only after seeing him did the group pick up their things and prepare to leave.

The journey to Dawu Mountain was as bumpy as Wang's guide had said it would be. Jiang Luo, who is not seasick, had his stomach turned upside down. After getting off the bus, they took a farmer's boat and did not arrive at Dawu Mountain until after 4pm.

Dawu Mountain is a rolling mountain range with dozens of peaks, large and small, that can be seen from the head of the mountain range to the tail.

It looked spectacular, but with such a large mountain range, the hope of finding a trace of the Dragon's Eye in it was slim. Everyone knew that the search for the Dragon's Eye could not be rushed, so they set up their tents at the foot of the mountain and rested for the night, and before dawn the next day the group was standing at the bottom of the mountain, fully equipped and ready to climb.

The evil spirit stands in the forefront, looking up at Dawu Mountain with an unpredictable expression.

The dragon veins can suppress evil spirits, and Dawu Mountain is no exception. The closer he got to Dawu Mountain, the more Chi You could feel his power being suppressed by the dragon veins. This is only at the foot of the mountain, so imagine how far his power will be suppressed if he enters the mountain.

It was for this reason that he was unable to join Jiang Luo on the mountain to look for longan.

So the evil spirits brought with them Ge Wuchen, Teng Bi and Li Sha.

These three are a monk, a living dead man and a deep-sea fish. Even Teng Bi has a breath of life in him and is much better suppressed than the evil spirits.

Chi You came here with little use other than as a deterrent. But when it came time to go, Chi You was slow to act.

Ge Wuchen stepped forward and asked, "Master?"

Chi You suddenly smiled, the corners of his mouth raised high as he said with interest, "This mountain is interesting."

With these words, he suddenly headed for the trail.

This move took everyone by surprise, and Taoist Master Wei He looked at his back in disbelief.

Is he not afraid of the Dragon Veins? Or does the Dragon Vein simply have no effect on him?

But fortunately, the evil spirit stopped after only two steps. He looked up at the towering Dawu Mountain, his eyes narrowed slightly, and after a moment, the evil spirit looked sideways with a careless smile on his lips, " Teng Bi."

Teng Bi walks up quickly and in silence to the evil spirit.

The evil spirit's voice was low, so low that no one else could hear it except Teng Bi.

He said, "Bring him back safe and sound, got it?"

Even if Chi You didn't say so, Teng Bi would do his best to protect Jiang Luo. He said honestly, "Yes."

Teng Bi waited a little longer and when he did not see the evil spirit speak, he thought it had finished speaking and when he looked up, he saw the corner of his lips pressed down unpleasantly at the corners of the evil spirit's mouth.

After a long time, the evil spirit said, "You follow him at all times, even if it is Ge Wuchen, and do not let him come near Jiang Luo."

Teng Bi said, "Yes."

The evil spirit took another look at Dawu Mountain, "Go."

Wei He and Jiang Luo are escorted in the middle, with the guide leading the way, and the group enters the trail at a fast pace and disappears in a flash.

Two hundred metres away, in the middle of the forest, Wen Renlian was watching them with binoculars, hidden behind trees. Wen Renlian watched Jiang Luo's physique carefully and was relieved to see that Jiang Luo looked okay. As the binoculars moved back, Wen Renlian let out a "giggle" and said to himself, "Is he one of Chi You's men? ......"

Ye Xun asks, "Who?"

Wen Renlian whispered, "The death of standing with Ge Wuchen-"

His words stopped abruptly and he immediately turned his head to look at Ge Zhu.

Ge Zhu was already frozen in place, staring blankly at Wen Renlian before turning abruptly to take another telescope and look at Jiang Luo's group.

In the small lens, Ge Wuchen, dressed in clean monk's clothes, has a slight smile on his face. In his hand he holds a string of Buddhist beads, in front of him is a dead ghost with a large sword protecting Jiang Luo, and a little girl at the end.

Ge Zhu's expression became instantly complex, fear and hatred mixed with a variety of other emotions flashed across his face. He gritted his teeth and said, "Ge, Wu, dust!"

Has he, a son of Buddha, been reduced to becoming the henchman of evil spirits?

Ge Zhu's face was frozen and he was about to rush out with his peach wood sword in a murderous mood, "No, I can't let him be with Jiang Luo and the little girl. He will kill Jiang Luo and the little girl, he will!"

Ye Xun and Lu Youyi caught him just in time and they soothed him like a child, "It's okay Ge Zhu, don't be afraid, Jiang Luo and the others will be fine."

" Ge Wuchen can't beat Jiang Luo, and he doesn't dare to. Don't worry, he wouldn't dare to do anything."

Wen Renlian also whispered, " Ge Zhu, that little girl is no ordinary person, she is the leader of the blood eels we let go at sea, Ge Wuchen cannot harm her."

Ge Zhu's brain was dull and painful, and he could not stop thinking about what Ge Wuchen had just done, and the voices of his companions were blocked out of his ears. He couldn't help thinking, "How could Ge Wuchen still laugh?

After doing all those things, after almost killing him, he was able to live as if nothing had happened. Ge Zhu's voice trembled, " Jiang Luo really can't go into the mountain with him, Ge Wuchen is sinister and cunning, he will kill Jiang Luo ...... you believe me, I will kill him, I will kill him. "

Wen Renlian couldn't help but sigh.

Every time Ge Zhu sees Ge Wuchen, he loses his mind and is driven by hatred. Wen Renlian also dislikes Ge Wuchen, but cannot go out at this moment. If Ge Zhu ever sees Ge Wuchen, I am afraid that before Ge Zhu can make a move against Ge Wuchen, Ge Wuchen will have already seriously injured him in turn.

Wen Renlian said in a cold voice, "Ge Zhu! Stop it, you're only doing bad things now!"

Ge Zhu's hands were also shaking as he froze at Wen Renlian's words. The look on his face was like that of a traumatised cub who has lost its mother, but finally, Ge Zhu took a deep breath and calmed down.

"I'm sorry," he said in a low voice, "I'll hold it in."

Lu Youyi coughed twice, intending to improve the atmosphere, and he deliberately asked curiously, " Wen Ren, who is this 'he' you were talking about? Apart from Ge Wuchen, is there anyone else among Chi You's men that you know?"

As he spoke, he picked up a telescope and tried to look over Jiang Luo's shoulder as well. But Wen Renlian raised his hand to block his mirror and said without a pale face, " Lu Youyi, there is a hornet's nest behind you."

Lu Youyi jumped up, pulling his jacket over his head in horror, "Crap crap crap why are there hornets here!"

Wen Renlian picked up his binoculars and looked into the distance, waiting for Teng Bi's figure to disappear before he said, "Ah, I was wrong, it was a bird's nest."

Lu Youyi should not be allowed to see Teng Bi.

Lu Youyi, who is very affectionate, will only be sad to see Teng Bi here.

It is better not to see this side if you can.

Seeing their attention diverted, Ge Zhu stepped back lightly and quietly, unaware that he had retreated to the very back. When no one was looking, he turned and ran into the jungle.

Ge Zhu is not worried about Ge Wuchen.

He fears that the same tragedy will happen again, or at least that Ge Zhu will try to follow and sneak up behind Jiang Luo. He will not appear to disturb Jiang Luo, he just wants to make sure that Ge Wuchen does not kill his friend, whom he considers a family member, again.

It was like the three brothers who were once killed by Ge Wuchen in front of him.

The mountain passes are high and the higher you climb, the more inhospitable the views become and the colder the temperature.

Although we don't know where the dragon's eye is, we are right to go towards the dragon's head. The guide led the way. He had grown up in the mountains and knew the paths well. After almost three hours of walking through Dawu Mountain, the group finally reached the head of the dragon's eye when the sun was high in the sky.

Wei He Daoist looked at the map and the longan was not easy to find. They split into two groups, with Daoist Master Wei He and his guide Wang going to the north. Jiang Luo took the others to the south.

Ge Wuchen should have been part of Daoist Wei He's group, but instead he calmly followed Jiang Luo with Li Sha, who ignored them and said as he hurried along, "Aren't you afraid that Daoist Wei He will run away?"

Ge Wuchen smiled blandly, "It has come to this, running away is the only way to offend both sides. As long as Daoist Master Wei He cares about the Lian family clan, he will do his best to find the Dragon's Eye."

Jiang Luo was just asking a casual question as he continued to take his compass and move closer to the dragon's eye that Wen Renlian and the others had identified.

The deeper he went, the less birds and beasts there were around him, and Jiang Luo unknowingly reached the general area of the Dragon's Eye. He stopped to look around him, and saw that the area was deep into Dawu Mountain, and looked exactly like a deep old forest.

Ge Wuchen asks, "You think the dragon's eye is around here?"

Jiang Luo is perfunctory, "Something like that."

Ge Wuchen tries to find traces of longan in the surroundings. Li Sha held his hand, blinked his round eyes at Jiang Luo and slowly chewed the jerky in his mouth, " Li Sha knew there was a cave nearby oh, and inside the cave was the dragon's eye."

Jiang Luo turned back to her at the sound of her voice, and Li Sha smiled and said, "Pretty brother, if you let that big tiger out and give it to me, I will tell you where the cave is."

Jiang Luo raised an eyebrow, posing half-heartedly, "How do you know it's longan? Why do I get the impression that you're lying?"

Li Sha deflated, disgruntled, " Li Sha is telling the truth, there is a small river outside the cave and it is full of piranhas, they told me so."

Jiang Luo snorted out a laugh, "Piranhas? Hahahaha, you're a deep water fish and you still have a common language with piranhas?"

The more he does this, the angrier Li Sha gets, and more information about the cave keeps coming out of his mouth. The mud was moist and there were beautiful bright red mushrooms at the entrance to the cave, so much detailed information that could never be made up off the top of his head. Jiang Luo took all the words he could, knelt down and dug into the mud to see how wet it was.

After digging down a little, the ground feels moist, and Jiang Luo looks around. It's new spring and the old leaves have not yet fallen off the forest, but new shoots are already growing. However, a closer look reveals that there are more tender green weeds growing on the south-west side of the ground than in any other direction.

This would represent the presence of water underground on the south-western side.

Jiang Luo got up with a satisfied smile and stroked Li Sha's head, who was somewhat flattered.

Patting the blood eel leader on the head, Jiang Luo headed south-west, "Come on, the cave is this way."

Teng Bi followed without hesitation and Li Sha's mouth dropped open as she murmured incredulously, "How did he know to go that way?"

Ten minutes to the south-west, Jiang Luo's nostrils picked up the scent of dampness and soon they came upon the cave Li Sha had mentioned.

In front of the cave there is indeed a fast flowing river. It was two metres wide and it was hard to see how deep it was. Teng Bi dropped a branch into it and when he brought it back up, it was full of cratered bite marks.

The current was wide enough for the men to jump over, but Li Sha had a harder time.

But Li Sha had her own way. She stood at the edge of the lake and whistled, and all the piranhas in the lake sprang up in a flash, the fish piling up together to form a fish bridge.

Li Sha treads lightly on the fish bridge and leads the way across.

The bridge of fish did not break up after she walked across. But Jiang Luo had no intention of stepping over the hideously shaped piranhas, so they took a few steps back and leapt over the river with a boost.

The cave next to the river is hidden, covered by layers of dead branches and vines, so if you don't look closely enough, you won't even notice that there is a cave hidden here. Jiang Luo was already sure that this was the Dragon's Eye, so he tried to send the location, but when he took his mobile phone out, he realised that there was no signal.

He was not surprised and took out his torch and dagger and headed into the cave. Ge Wuchen stepped forward in time, stepped in front of him and took the lead, saying indifferently, "Master Jiang, just leave such matters as scouting to us. You just need to protect yourself and not have any accidents."

The cave is dark and the deeper we go, the narrower the path becomes, with Teng Bi keeping Jiang Luo well protected and Ge Wuchen at the front, seemingly at ease, but in fact on edge.

Remembering the evil spirit's words, Teng Bi left Li Sha at the end of the line and stood close to Jiang Luo, without regard for his young age.

Li Sha grunted and didn't say anything, but dutifully took charge of the back.

Jiang Luo wanted another cigarette as he watched the three of them shield themselves from the elements.

Because he knew that he could get this protection all because of someone's orders.

At the end of the walk, the path becomes a stone staircase going straight down.

The top of the stone staircase is so arched that one's head almost touches the top of the stairs. Jiang Luo strokes the walls on either side, his fingers staining them with a lot of yellow wall dust that has rubbed off.

He shone his torch in all directions, and the staircase was quiet and peaceful, almost silent except for the sound of their footsteps.

Such silence is uncomfortable, even to the point of creating the uncomfortable feeling of deafness. Jiang Luo asked in a low voice, " Ge Wuchen, when do we reach the end ahead?"

Ge Wuchen is silent.

Jiang Luo was a little surprised, " Ge Wuchen?"

Ge Wuchen suddenly muttered, " Ge Zhu ?"

Ge Zhu ?

Jiang Luo frowned fiercely and took his torch and shone it forward from the side of Ge Wuchen's face, but there was nothing ahead, still silent blackness.

But Ge Wuchen, as if caught in a nightmare, suddenly picked up speed and ran forward, shouting sternly, " Ge Zhu, don't go that way!"

Before the others could react, Ge Wuchen had already run off into the darkness to who knows where.

Teng Bi immediately pulled Jiang Luo behind him and, with a stony face, looked ahead into the darkness and said tentatively, " Ge Wuchen?"

The voice echoed within the stone staircase, but Ge Wuchen did not respond in the slightest.

Teng Bi frowned and was about to scream again when Jiang Luo stopped him, "Stop screaming, there's only one road here, he's just up ahead, let's keep going and we'll see him sooner or later."

Teng Bi nodded with a sullen face. Li Sha poked his head around the back a little curiously, "Is he crazy? Who is Ge Zhu."

"He was deluded," Jiang Luo rubbed the wall dust off his fingers, "and I suspect this is an ancient tomb."

Li Sha said confusedly, "Ancient tombs?"

"This staircase is a hanging staircase," Jiang Luo looks ahead, "a mechanism in ancient tombs, known as the hooking and bewitching path, which can cause illusions."

"We'll have to be careful the rest of the way, with those behind us holding the clothes of those in front of us as we hold on to the wall and go down with our eyes closed."
