In the evening, Lou Cheng stayed with Yan Zheke until the bell rang. Then he went to the teacher's dormitory. After waiting for a while, he finally saw his master.
"Let's go. They're almost at Zhaoshan Lake." Geezer Shi shook his head as if he had just woken up.
"How do we get there?" Lou Cheng asked subconsciously.
In his opinion, a physical invulnerability expert should have a different way of traveling.
Geezer Shi stared at him. "By running, of course. Don't you have good stamina and don't get tired?"
"Uh …" Lou Cheng was stunned. He was really thinking about running.
Zhaoshan Lake was a little far, but it was still okay …
Seeing his thoughtful expression, Geezer Shi scolded him with a smile. "What are you thinking about? Call a taxi! You stinking brat, you may not be afraid of being tired, but your master is at least old! "
Calling a taxi … Lou Cheng looked at the sky helplessly. He took out his phone and opened the app.
Is this the way a physical invulnerability expert travels?
After a while, they jumped over the railing, left the campus, and got into the taxi.
"Going to Zhaoshan Lake so late at night?" The taxi driver asked nervously.
Zhaoshan Lake was a tourist spot. After the sun went down, there would be few people there.
At this moment, countless cases of taxi drivers being robbed and killed by passengers in secluded places flashed through his mind. He was a little scared and regretted taking the taxi.
Sigh, if it wasn't on the way home, I wouldn't have taken the taxi!
He pretended to play with the navigation and turned off the flash. He secretly took a picture of the back seat and planned to send it to his wife. He told her that if he went missing, these two people would be the murderers.
After typing the message and clicking send, he quickly switched back to the navigation page. In the process, he sent the latest picture without looking at it carefully.
Lou Cheng's senses were so sharp that he had already noticed the driver's abnormality. He didn't care about it and just found it funny.
He saw his master closing his eyes to rest, so he followed suit and kept himself in the best state.
The car arrived at Zhaoshan Lake in silence. Lou Cheng opened his eyes and saw the gentle ripples of the lake reflecting the moonlight. It was peaceful and tranquil. Compared to the daytime, it had a tranquil beauty that reminded him of the past.
And in the middle of the lake was a pitch-black island. It was like a desolate beast lying on the surface of the water.
"Thank you," said Lou Cheng politely. He pushed open the door and got out of the car.
After Geezer Shi got out of the car and closed the door behind him, the driver finally heaved a sigh of relief. He felt as if he had been liberated from all the depression he had accumulated before.
He waved at Lou Cheng and Geezer Shi, pulled the lever, reversed the car, and turned the steering wheel, preparing to leave quickly.
Ding! At this moment, Lou Cheng heard the sound of money being deducted and walked to the lakeside with Geezer Shi.
"Master, where are those seniors?" He looked around but didn't see anyone else.
"On the island …" Geezer Shi reached out and grabbed his shoulder. With a leap, he jumped directly into the lake.
Tragic! He didn't bring any change of clothes! This inexplicable thought popped into his mind subconsciously. Just as he was about to fall into the water, he found that his feet were hard to the touch, as if he was stepping on the ground.
He hurriedly lowered his head to take a look, only to see sparkling and translucent light reflected in his eyes.
With his master's feet as the center, the lake with a radius of dozens of centimeters had formed a thick layer of ice!
"Let's go." Geezer Shi held Lou Cheng's shoulder so that he wouldn't put all his weight on the ice.
As they walked, the surface of the lake froze all the way, as if they had opened up a path to the island.
After reversing the car and driving for dozens of meters, the driver calmed down and suddenly felt another doubt in his mind.
Why did this old man and young man come to Zhaoshan Lake?
Fishing? They didn't bring fishing gear!
Looking for people? They didn't go to the house over there!
Puzzled and curious, the driver couldn't help but look at the rearview mirror, only to find that the two passengers just now were gone!
Gone? He inexplicably shivered, stepped on the brake, changed gears, pulled the lever, pressed down the window, stuck his head out, and looked back at the lakeside.
The lakeside was quiet and the moonlight was bright. Two vague figures walked on the water, farther and farther away until they were out of sight.
"Oh my god …" The driver suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He sat back and closed the window, hearing his heart beating fast.
Just then, his phone rang. It was from his wife.
"Hello …" He answered instinctively, panting.
His wife was surprised and confused. "What did you mean by sending me that picture? Are you okay? I just saw the message after I calmed the kids down. "
"Is there something wrong with the picture?" The driver blurted out, suddenly feeling cold all over.
"You told me to remember the faces of the two people in the picture, but where are they?" His wife was puzzled.
With a clatter, the driver's phone fell beside the brakes.
He picked it up, hung up the call, and switched to WeChat. He carefully looked at the picture he sent to his wife, only to see snowflakes swirling in the back seat like a whirlpool. Other than that, it was empty. There were no passengers!
Bam!
His phone fell to the ground again.
He didn't have time to pick it up. He pushed the gear, released the brake, put down the lever, and started the car as if he was running for his life.
"Oh my god, ghost!
Really ghost! "
"I won't laugh at my wife's superstition anymore!"
He was so nervous that he almost drove the car into a ditch several times. Fortunately, there were few cars on the road at night and it was close to home, so he arrived at the community safely. After reversing the car seven or eight times, he finally parked the car crookedly.
Rushing home, the first thing he said to his wife was,
"Hurry up, hang the Heavenly Primogenitor statue you brought back, hang it in the master bedroom!"
…
On the island in the middle of the lake, Lou Cheng followed Geezer Shi to a cliff and saw two figures standing there.
"Just the two of you?" Geezer Shi raised his eyebrows, took out a small wine bottle, and drank a mouthful.
One of the figures looked like a middle-aged man, with deep eye sockets, a high nose bridge, black hair mixed with a few strands of silver, and deep eyes that seemed to hide a flame.
He said indifferently, "It's nothing important, just the two of us are enough."
Geezer Shi clicked his tongue, pointed at him and introduced him to Lou Cheng. "This old guy is like me. He's not well-known and often travels outside. When he was young, he was quite creative. He combined several unique skills of the Plague Sect into the Fire Sect's martial arts. Hey, he compared himself to the Lord of Fire Virtue and named himself the Sinful Lord of Fire Virtue. Well, he didn't study much and only knew how to read. He didn't know what the Virtue of Fire Virtue actually meant, so he gave it a random name. Later, he felt it didn't sound good, so he changed it and called himself the Sinful Lord of Fire or the Divine Enchanting Flame."
"Damn, Master, didn't we agree not to provoke him because he has a bad temper?" Lou Cheng was shocked by his master's mean words. He hurriedly saluted with his hands folded and called him senior.
Divine Enchanter of Sinful Fire snorted and didn't say anything, as if he was used to Geezer Shi's sarcastic remarks.
Geezer Shi didn't continue to provoke him, but pointed to the other figure, "I don't think I need to introduce her, you should know her."
Of course, he knew her! She was a Mighty One who had been famous for 30 years! Xinghai Queen of Thought! Lou Cheng held back his excitement and saluted respectfully,
"Greetings, Senior Fei."
Queen of Thought, Fei Dan was in her fifties and was one of the oldest Physical Invulnerability Experts active in the top professional competitions. She was a peerless figure in the same generation as Taoist Sword Wu Qiao of Shushan Study. So far, she had won 20 titles and was nicknamed King of Thought or Queen of Thought. In recent years, as she grew older, her martial arts became more and more refined, and her strength decreased. She lost more than she won against Dragon King and Warrior Sage.
In addition, she could be considered as the actual host of the "Xinghai Club". The club had a mysterious background and a variety of Kung Fu. There was half of the secret art of the Water Sect, the "Earth Divine Art" of the Non-Fighting Sect, and the "Tai Chi" derived from the Taoist Sect.
Fei Dan was less than 1.7 meters tall, but she still looked like she was in her thirties. Her temperament was quite elegant. After Lou Cheng finished the salute, she laughed and said, "Little friend, are you interested in joining the Xinghai Club after graduation?"
Kid … Lou Cheng was speechless and didn't know how to answer.
"Ahem." Geezer Shi interrupted, "Don't tempt him. He worships Dragon King, and his wife is from Shushan Study. He won't join Xinghai Club. Brat, let me tell you, she may be gentle and well-mannered now, but she used to have a fiery temper …"
"Can't you keep your mouth shut?" Queen of Thought shook her head and laughed, interrupting Geezer Shi's nagging. "Let's go down."
As she spoke, the surface of her body flashed and expanded into a ball, enveloping them.
Lou Cheng looked around curiously and saw that the surface of the ball was transparent and thin, as if it was made of water.
"Jump." Fei Dan's voice drilled into his ears.
Lou Cheng didn't hesitate and jumped off the cliff.
The transparent ball of water swayed and floated lightly. Carrying them, they slowly landed on the surface of the water and sank.
The surroundings were getting darker and darker. Lou Cheng looked around and couldn't believe that he was in Zhaoshan Lake.
He breathed smoothly and didn't feel the water pressure or humidity.
After falling for a while, he finally touched the ground and arrived at the bottom of the lake.
Queen of Thought, Divine Enchanter of Sin Flame and Geezer Shi walked dozens of meters around the bottom of the island and found a narrow crack in the rock wall. From afar, it looked like a crack of a door.
Lou Cheng followed his master's advice and remained silent. He spoke less and listened more.
At this moment, Divine Enchanter of Sin Flame shook his wrist and threw out a green flame. It passed through the surface of the water ball and fell on the thin crack, burning silently.
As it burned, a muffled sound was heard. The island shook and the thin crack cracked open, retreating backward.
It was really a crack of a door!
When the door opened, a stone staircase was revealed. The outside was water and the inside was empty, as if there was an invisible force separating the inside from the outside.
As the waves flashed, the water ball floated into the abode and turned into bubbles.
Lou Cheng looked around and didn't feel any difficulty in breathing. The surroundings were clean and fresh, and even a breeze was blowing.
He calmed down and followed his master and the others up the stone staircase. He also spared some energy to observe the Jindan to see if it would change in the original owner's mansion.
