Chapter 125: Seeking the Dragon King (I)
Chu Ruanruan counted the equipment, one, two, three...six?
"Sister, there are only three of us, how come we have six sets of equipment?" Chu Runrun asked in confusion.
As he was speaking, Ning Xuan drove up, Dahei jumped out of the car, and Tian Yuyuan and Ge Hanlin also ran out of the school.
"Ruanruan, and what about us? Aren't there exactly six of us when we add them together?" Ge Hanlin said with a smile.
"Woof!" Dahei also barked, as if to say, it's here too!
Chu Ruanruan frowned seriously: "This matter is different from the past, I can't guarantee..."
Before Chu Ruanruan could finish her words, Ning Xuan interrupted her: "Ruanruan, no matter how dangerous it is, I will follow you!"
"Yes! The motto of our ghost-hunting team is never to abandon or give up. No matter what we have to face, you can't leave us behind, otherwise we will become ghosts and haunt you!" Tian Yuyuan said.
Just as he finished speaking, another person ran out of the school:
"Whatever you're going to do, can you take me with you?"
Everyone looked at Chi Longfei.
"Long Fei, do you know what we are going to do? Why do you dare to follow us?" Tian Yuyuan asked.
"No matter what you want to do, I will follow you. Aren't we friends?" Chi Longfei said with a smile.
Everyone looked at each other, and then Chu Ruanruan said:
"We are going to Wolong Mountain, and this matter is not that simple. I can't guarantee your safety. Do you still want to go?"
"Of course, I have already asked for leave!" Chi Longfei said with a smile.
"Handsome Chi, aren't you afraid that a ghost will swallow you up?" Chu Qi smiled.
Chi Longfei's face turned pale, but he still shook his head: "I... I'm not afraid! You are the best friends I have made in college. I will do my best to help you!"
Chu Qi curled her lips: "I'm afraid you'll need us to save you then!"
"Sister, prepare an extra set of equipment for him!" Chu Runrun said.
"Okay!" Chu Qi nodded.
Half an hour later, an off-road vehicle drove up to the foot of Wolong Mountain.
Chu Qi got out of the car and put the drone into the sky.
"Let's take a look at the terrain here first!"
Everyone was shocked when they saw the scene captured by the drone.
"This Wolong Mountain really is shaped like a dragon's head!"
"Sister, how far can the drone fly?" Chu Runrun asked.
"Our drone has a maximum range of five kilometers. If it is controlled by a ground station, it can reach dozens of kilometers!" Chu Qi replied.
Chu Runrun shook her head. The dragon's head was so big, and it was hard to tell how long the body was. It was impossible to see the entire dragon clearly with just a drone.
"Let's go in and take a look first!" Chu Runrun said.
"good!"
Everyone carried their bags and entered Wolong Mountain.
Fortunately, we had been there once, and this time everyone walked fast. In less than an hour, we arrived at the place where we parted with Peng Fei and the others last time.
"This is the road Peng Fei and his friends took that day. There may be danger ahead, so everyone be careful!" Chu Runrun said.
Everyone followed the path Peng Fei and his group had taken. About half an hour later, Dahei suddenly started barking wildly at the back.
Everyone immediately turned around and saw that countless thorny vines had blocked their way back.
Chu Runrun hurried over and cut off a few vines, but not long after, they grew again, and the cut vines still faintly emitted dragon energy.
"It seems that the Dragon King doesn't want us to go back!" Chu Runrun said coldly with narrowed eyes.
"Then what should we do now?" Ge Hanlin asked.
"Keep moving forward!" Chu Runrun said in a deep voice.
The crowd continued to move forward, and with every step they took, the vines behind them blocked the way.
Another hour later, a river appeared in front of everyone.
"This should be the waterway that Peng Fei and the others mentioned!"
Chu Runrun took a bamboo pole to test the water depth. Fortunately, the water was only about one meter deep, so wading across was not a problem.
"The current isn't fast, but there might be something under the water, so everyone be careful!"
Chu Ruanruan was about to be the first to go into the water when she was pulled back by Ning Xuan.
"I'll go first!"
After saying that, Ning Xuan slowly walked into the water. There was silt at the bottom, but fortunately the riverbed was solid.
Ning Xuan helped Chu Runrun into the water. The two of them walked forward a few steps and only let the others down after making sure that there was no problem.
The river was not very wide, only about ten meters round trip, but everyone walked very slowly, and Dahei also adopted the dog paddle style to swim forward.
One after another, seven people and a dog were tightly pulled together.
When we reached the middle, the water suddenly became turbulent and the sky was suddenly shrouded in thick fog.
Chu Ruanruan sniffed, then her face changed drastically and she quickly took out the talisman paper from her bag and handed it to the others:
"This fog will confuse people's minds, everyone, hold the talisman paper!"
Chu Ruanruan and Chu Qi looked at each other and began to silently recite the Heart Purification Mantra at the same time.
The Heart Purifying Mantra was created by Taoists to dispel demonic obstacles, and it can keep the mind clear and not be bewitched by demonic obstacles.
About five minutes later, Chu Ruanruan and Chu Qi opened their eyes. The talisman paper took effect under the stimulation of the Heart Purification Mantra, isolating the fog outside their bodies.
"There's less fog on the shore, everyone, hurry up and get ashore!"
Everyone quickened their pace and walked towards the shore.
The fog on the river surface became thicker and thicker, and soon the effect of the Heart Purification Mantra became weaker.
Chu Ruanruan clearly felt a little dizzy, and it was even more uncomfortable that the others did not respond.
"Ruanruan, come to grandpa!"
Chu Runrun heard Chu Yi's voice in a daze. He was standing in the distance waving at her.
"grandfather!"
Chu Runrun couldn't help but reach out to Chu Yi in the distance.
But the next second, a loud shout came: "Ruanruan, wake up!"
It’s my brother’s voice!
Chu Runrun was suddenly startled. After she came to her senses, she bit her lips hard. The pain brought her back to consciousness.
Dahei bit the hem of Chu Ruanruan's clothes and pulled her forward. The shore was very close, so Dahei jumped up first and then bit the rope on Ning Xuan's waist to pull him up.
"Ruanruan, give me your hand!"
After Ning Xuan got ashore, he quickly grabbed Chu Ruanruan's hand and pulled her ashore.
Using the rope that tied everyone together, the two of them worked together to pull the others up one by one.
The fog on the shore was much less, and except for Chu Qi, Chu Runrun, Ning Xuan and Dahei, everyone else had fainted.
Chu Qi squeezed the water out of her body and looked at Ning Xuan who was not affected at all and couldn't help but wonder:
"Ruanruan and I can't resist this fog, how come you're not hurt at all?"
Ning Xuan was also puzzled: "I don't know either!"
"Maybe it's because my brother has a special physique!" Chu Ruanruan said.
"Is the Zhiyang physique so good? It can protect you from ghosts, monsters and confusion. If I can have a Zhiyang physique in my next life, I will wake up laughing in my dreams!" Chu Qi said jokingly.
Ning Xuan and Chu Runrun looked at each other, both of them with solemn expressions.
Obviously, they have gradually realized that Ning Xuan's specialness is not entirely due to his extremely yang constitution.
After about half an hour, everyone woke up.
