Wonderful Immortal Doctor
Chapter 708 9 Yushan
Jiuyu Mountain is located thirty kilometers away from Qingzhou City.
There are many majestic mountains in Bashu, such as Emei Mountain and Gongga Mountain, which are famous all over the world.
Jiuyu Mountain is not as famous, but it is also high into the clouds, with steep and strange peaks, which makes people imagine.
This mountain was the private property of the Tang Clan in ancient times. The ancestors of the Tang Clan built many mechanisms in this mountain according to the art of Qimen Dunjia and combined it with the Tang Clan's unique method of refining equipment. They also built the Tianqiao Tower on the top of the mountain. At that time, it was known as the most ingenious mechanism in the world, and all of it was integrated into this mountain.
In peaceful times, it serves as a place for the Tang Clan's disciples to practice, and in times of war, it is also a place to escape disaster.
In modern times, it was once reclaimed, but due to the steepness of the mountain, it was not suitable for farming and it became a barren mountain after being reclaimed. Later, the Tang Clan negotiated with the local officials, bought it back at a high price, and renovated the various institutions of that year.
Now I am at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the top, and all I see is clouds and mist.
"There's not even a road in sight, how can we get up there?"
Liu Rui couldn't help but mutter to her uncle Liu Jiangxi that she was only in her early twenties and not calm enough.
Liu Jiangxi immediately scolded him: "You came here on your own, don't talk nonsense now!"
The Liu family was originally a warlord family. Compared with the thousand-year-old family like the Tang family, they have no foundation. Now, compared with the central government officials like the Mi family, they are also lacking in maturity.
This time I came to watch the game at the instruction of the Mi family.
Liu Jiangxi seemed somewhat reserved.
"Miss Liu, don't worry. There is a road leading to the top of the Tang Sect, but you have to walk another half a mile forward." Hai Qian said with a smile.
The Hai family, a noble family from Bashu, sent Hai Qian, the leader among three generations of descendants, to watch the match.
The Hai family was once a martial arts family, but unfortunately their heritage fell into decline. Today, the most accomplished person in the Hai family is only a half-step grandmaster.
But in the secular world, the Hai family's business ranked among the top five in Bashu.
The other two families who came to watch the fight were martial artists who lived in seclusion at home, the Northwestern Ma family.
Ma Tianying smiled and said to the younger generation behind him: "The Jiuyu Mountain opens once every five years. In the past, you younger generations were not allowed to enter. You have the chance to see the skills of the ancients. You must cherish the opportunity!"
The people who came to the Yu family were Yu Qing and Yu Huizhu. Yu Qing looked calm, but Yu Huizhu couldn't help asking:
"You weren't allowed to watch the game before, why are you allowed to watch it this time?"
Ma Tianying was in his forties, with a long beard. He stroked his beard and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes:
“The Tang Sect is a thousand-year-old family, and the selection of the Saint Girl is originally an internal matter. In the past, once the selection results were announced, it was enough to announce it to the public and let everyone meet and get to know each other.
Since they are letting people watch the competition this time, I guess it must be the Saint who is making the selection, and she wants to be fair to everyone? Oh, I am curious, what is so special about the candidates for the Tang Sect Saint this time?"
Yu Huizhu was stunned for a moment, then her eyes suddenly lit up: "I know, it must be Sister Yanran! Last time, Sister Yanran said she would come back as a candidate for the Saint!
She is Master Chen’s woman, and the Tang Sect certainly doesn’t want to offend Master Chen, so…”
"Master Chen? But is that Master Chen from Handong?" Ma Tianying asked back.
"That's right!" Yu Huizhu nodded.
"He is indeed a prominent figure!" Ma Tianying touched his chin and nodded.
That being said, he was wondering in his heart, if the Tang Sect was afraid of Chen Wanli, why not just let his woman be the Saint? Besides, with the background of the Tang Sect, they might not be afraid of Chen Wanli, right?
Although someone has become the number one on the Earth List and is known as the number one grandmaster!
But they, the true pillars of martial arts, still believe that this first place does not include those geniuses who are half a step beyond the ordinary.
The Ma family and the Yu family only arrived in Bashu at midnight last night, and were unaware of the feud between Chen Wanli and the wealthy families of Bashu.
But Ma Tianying, as the core figure of the Northwest Ma family, is also a shrewd person. At this time, he just glanced at the two people from the Liu family, and he had a few more guesses in his mind. He smiled and said:
"Although Master Chen is a prominent figure, there are many heroes in Bashu, and tough guys have emerged from ancient times to the present. They may not be afraid of him!"
When Liu Rui heard this, he subconsciously replied, "Of course, we Bashu people are not afraid of him! Since he dared to be cruel to Brother Le yesterday, his woman can forget about becoming the Saint of Tang Sect!"
"Shut up!" Liu Jiangxi shouted hurriedly.
Hai Qian smiled faintly: "Uncle Liu, don't be nervous. It's not something you can't talk about."
Then he looked at Ma Tianying and said with a smile: "Yesterday, Master Chen had a dispute with some juniors. Master Chen said in his dialect that even if the wealthy family of Bashu used all their means, what could we do to him?"
Ma Tianying was stunned for a moment. This tone was really a bit too loud!
The corner of Yu Qing's mouth twitched. This was the Chen Wanli in his memory!
"So domineering!" A hint of excitement flashed in Yu Huizhu's eyes, and she almost said, "So domineering, I like it!"
But when he saw the displeasure on the Liu family's faces and the mockery in Hai Qian's eyes, he swallowed it back.
"That makes sense!" Ma Tianying nodded.
"Then this Bashu rich family is going to compete with Master Chen? Isn't this Tang Sect Saint Maiden Selection the first round of the fight between the two sides?"
"That should be what it means. If he is chosen, the relationship between Master Chen and the Tang Sect will be extraordinary.
If he is not selected, it will not be easy for Master Chen to fight against the entire wealthy family alone! "
"That's not true. A hero can't stand more punches. Besides, who among the rich and powerful will compete with you in martial arts? They will use power, connections, and money to fight!"
"So, the Tang Sect probably doesn't want Tang Yanran to be chosen today?"
"Does this need to be said?"
Several juniors started discussing in low voices.
At this time, the person in charge of leading the way from the Tang Sect came over, and everyone stopped talking.
"Excuse me for waiting, my distinguished guests. Let's go up the mountain from this side!"
A third-generation elite from the Tang Clan, already dressed in black, stretched out his hand to the few people, gestured for them to come, and indicated their direction.
After walking a few hundred meters forward with a few people, they saw a winding three-meter-wide path. A sightseeing bus was waiting there, taking them up the mountain.
Along the way, I saw the shady side of the mountain wall, which was as steep as a ninety-degree vertical slope. There were rough stone steps on the wall, as well as some wooden plank roads.
These stone steps seem to be carved out of the stone wall and are covered with moss. The distance between each step is different, making them look extremely dangerous.
"Could those stone steps over there be the path that the ancients used to climb the mountain?" Yu Huizhu pointed in the distance and asked in surprise.
The Tang Clan disciple looked in the direction and smiled, "That is the place where the Saint Maiden is undergoing trials. There are a total of 9,999 stone steps. Going up the steps is the basic test!"
"what!"
Yu Huizhu looked at that place carefully again and her mouth opened wide.
This is even more dangerous than the Huashan Plank Road. Tourist plank roads at least have protection measures, but these are just bare stone steps with no fences at all. One misstep...
Everyone looked over and saw that masters like Yu Qing and Ma Tianying remained expressionless, but the younger generations started chattering.
Without the strength of a half-step grandmaster, going up the mountain from here would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Seeing everyone's reaction, a trace of pride flashed across the eyes of the Tang Sect disciple: "It's just climbing up the stairs. It's just the basics. During this time, there will be Tang Sect puppet attacks, Tang Sect traps, and Qimen Dunjia illusions!"
After hearing this, Yu Qing and Ma Tianying were both slightly moved. This trial was quite difficult, and even for a half-step master, it was not certain that he would be able to pass it.
