The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 410 One Night in Penglai

Above the East China Sea is the fairy mountain Penglai, which has been the place where immortals live in various legends since ancient times.

It is rumored that Xianshan Penglai floats on the sea all the year round, and there are countless rare and exotic animals on it.

Let's put aside what the legend looks like, but Xianshan Penglai does indeed exist in this world in reality.It's not some illusory, wishful thinking fantasy of mortals.

Since ancient times, as a symbol of Taoism, Penglai's status in Taoism has always been sacred and inviolable.

Above its mountain gate, there are layers of barriers and restrictions, telling people who come here not to act rashly.This place is definitely not a place where they can mess around.

For thousands of years, countless Taoist elites have worked hard with it as their goal.I want this small island in the East China Sea to be worthy of its glory for thousands of years.

And within the mountain gate, the entire interior of Penglai Mountain is covered with barriers and restrictions carefully developed by countless disciples.Layer after layer, they are like a fine cocoon, including the core and essence of Penglai.

Protect it from the unscrupulous prying and coveting of the outside world.

"Hurry up! Go over there!"

On this day, when the entire Penglai Mountain was covered by the gentle moonlight above the East China Sea, there was a commotion from the palace deep in the Penglai Mountain.

A disciple said to a group of guards who passed by him: "Go over there and have a look! Find him carefully! Even if you search the entire Penglai Mountain, you must find him!"

Judging from the sword in that disciple's hand and the color of the clothes he was wearing, his status was not low.

As for the guards, although they looked respectful and fearful of him, they hesitated a little after hearing his words.

"What's wrong?! I still can't order you guys, right?!" Seeing that the guards didn't move, the man frowned and was about to get angry.

The guards knew that it was not an option to procrastinate so much, so after looking at each other for a long while, a person came out from the inside, who seemed to be the leader of the group of guards.

He looked at the brother behind him, then at the disciple, then hesitated for a while before asking, "Master, is it not good for us to do this?"

"What's wrong?! Ah? I ask you what's wrong?" What answered him was the roar of his disciples.

The guards were too scared to speak by him, and after a while, the disciple continued: "I told you to look for it, so you can go and look for it. Anyway, remember, you must find him for me! As for the others When the sky falls, I will support you!"

After he finished speaking, the man fell silent. Seeing that the guards hadn't moved yet, the disciple became anxious.

He waved his hand, pointed at the main hall and said, "Why don't you fucking find it for me! What are you doing here?"

At this time, another person came running from a distance. Judging from his clothes, he should be a high-ranking disciple of Penglai just like the disciple who was holding a sword and ordering the guards to find him.

While running this way, he shouted loudly here: "Senior brother, brother, something is wrong!"

After being yelled at by him, the guards didn't dare to move anymore. The disciple holding the sword looked at the guards, and then at the person running from a distance, lowered his head, and cursed in a low voice: "Trash!"

Even though he said that, when he raised his head again, his face was already peaceful. He turned his head and explained to the guards: "You didn't hear anything just now."

After saying this, he turned around and walked a few steps in the direction of the person, and said with a smile: "Junior Brother, run slowly, don't fall! Tell Senior Brother if you have anything to do. Don't panic Flustered, like a child."

And the guards seemed to be no stranger to his face-changing technique.They all stood there very calmly, as if nothing had happened.

After a while, the two finally met, and one of them said, "Senior Brother, it's too bad. There's news from Demon City that they saw Yun Chang."

"What!?" After hearing his words, the disciple holding the sword raised his brow in surprise and said, "That old thing is still alive!?"

"Listen to them, not only is he alive, but he doesn't seem to have suffered any injuries." He said, lowering his voice and said: "I heard from the people in the magic city that he not only appeared in the branch of the magic city, but also wounded our men."

His words made the disciple holding the sword silent for a while, and then asked: "Then where is he now? Do you know?"
"I don't know..." The disciple shook his head and said, "You have to know, his cultivation level is not something that ordinary people can keep up with. So, I guess they searched for it, but they didn't find any clues. So This is probably the only way to go.”

"Then what do you mean to say, this time we will suffer from being dumb?" The boy with the sword raised his eyebrows after hearing this, and turned his head to look at the man.

Although he is said to be a senior brother, and the disciple holding the sword seems to be very polite to him, but deep down, he is very afraid of this senior brother.

For example, now, if the disciple with the sword asked him casually, he would not dare to say a word.

Seeing him standing there silently, bowing his head and not saying a word, the disciple holding the sword took two deep breaths, restrained himself from yelling, and said, "Okay, what should we do now? Did the master tell you what to do next?"

"Father said let me come to you and take you to see him." Hearing him mentioning his father, the disciple finally gained some confidence in his heart, raised his head and said to the disciple holding the sword: "Let's go quickly!" .”

"What about this side?" Apparently, the disciple holding the sword still hasn't forgotten what happened here. He pointed to the scene in front of him and said, "Just throw it away like this?"

"There are priorities, so let's slow things down here first. There is still time to do it anytime." The disciple said, turning his head to look at the hall, and then said: "Anyway, we have already closed the mountain gate, so he can do it in time." If you can hide past the first day of junior high school, can you still hide from the fifteenth day? Anyway, we have plenty of time to spend with him."

Seeing that the disciple holding the sword was still a little hesitant, he said persistently: "And that old man Yunchang doesn't seem to be coming back for a while. Apart from other things, we have more important things in front of us. Leave him alone."

Just analyzing the current situation, there is nothing wrong with what the disciple in front of him said.

So the disciple holding the sword, after pondering for a while, nodded his head, agreed with him, and said, "That's fine, let's go see the master first."

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and said to the guards: "I won't say more about some things, you guys know what to do. In short, keep your mouth shut, what should be said and what should not be said." Say, you know it in your heart."

Seeing this, the later disciple could only pull his arm and say, "Forget it, brother. Anyway, the entire Penglai Mountain is now under our control. Even if they go out and talk nonsense, someone has to listen! "

And until now, he didn't know that the disciple with the sword warned the guards not to talk nonsense.It's not about their finding someone tonight, but about the trash he just scolded.

But looking at his innocent face, even if someone told him that his senior brother called him a waste behind his back, he probably wouldn't believe it.

"That's right, Junior Brother, shall we go there first?" After saying this, the disciple with the sword turned his head to look at the guards for the last time before leaving.

After both of them disappeared, one of the guards was a little disdainful, and said with a sneer: "The dog is relying on the power of others."

"Okay, don't say a few words." At this time, the leader who had just stood up to negotiate with the sword-wielding disciple turned his head, and said to the guard who had just spoken, "What if they overhear?"

This sentence made the guard who had just spoken shut up, although he still had some opinions in his heart.But the boss was right, if he let them hear it, he would really lose his skin if he was not dead.

Seeing that he closed his mouth and stopped talking, the leader sighed and said: "Okay, I know that brothers feel wronged, but today's matter will stop here. After you go back later, don't mention today's matter to anyone. .”

"Then what should they do when they come to us again?" At this time, one of the guards spoke.

His words caused the guards to fall into a state of fear, seeing the fear on everyone's faces.And after starting to whisper, the leader immediately stretched out his hand, made a quiet movement, and said, "We'll talk about what will happen at that time. Now you are all scattered, go back and rest."

"But..." Someone opened his mouth and wanted to say something else.

"No but!" He said, turning his head to look at the direction where the two disciples left and said, "Penglai may not be peaceful tonight. Their lords are fighting for power, and we are cannon fodder in their eyes "Brothers, listen to me, nothing is important, the most important thing is to save your own life."

In fact, everyone knows this sentence even if he doesn't say it.For this kind of thing, they also want to stay as far away as possible.If it wasn't for today, it would be their team on duty.If they couldn't avoid it, they actually didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing at all.

"Okay, is there anything else? If there is nothing else, let's leave first!" Seeing that they stopped talking, the leader clapped his hands and gave an order.

After he finished speaking, he also turned around and left. Seeing him go, the guards chatted for a while, and then dispersed.
