Chapter 270: A Strange Encounter in the Mountains
After capturing the man in black robes, the group continued their journey through the Misty Mountains. The scenery in the mountains became increasingly strange, with exotic flowers sometimes blooming with dazzling light, and tiny sprites sometimes leaping and playing among the branches.
"This place is really amazing." Xiaoqing looked around curiously.
Liu Yu said with a smile, "Be careful not to run around and cause any more trouble."
Xiaoqing made a face: "Brother-in-law, all you do is talk about me."
Bai Suzhen watched them bickering from the side, shaking her head with a smile.
As they walked, they came to a valley. The valley was filled with colorful smoke, making it look mysterious and unpredictable.
"This smoke doesn't look normal, everyone be careful," Liu Yu warned.
The group cautiously entered the valley. As soon as they entered, they heard a commotion.
"What's going on?" Pigsy scratched his head.
Two little monsters were arguing over a sparkling gem.
"I discovered it first!" said a monster with pointed ears.
"I got it first!" another round-faced monster retorted.
Liu Yu stepped forward: "Stop arguing, where did this gem come from?"
When the two little monsters saw Liu Yu and the others, they were so frightened that they quickly hid behind a rock.
"Have mercy, sir! We just happened to be passing by and found them," said the pointy-eared monster.
Xiaoqing said, "Hmph, nobody would believe you."
Just then, a strong wind suddenly swept through the valley, and a voice came from the wind: "Hahaha, finally someone has come."
Everyone looked around warily.
A figure slowly emerged from the smoke; it turned out to be an elderly man with white hair.
"Grandpa, who are you?" Liu Yu asked.
The old man stroked his beard: "I am the guardian of this valley, and you have trespassed into my territory."
Xu Xian quickly said, "Old man, we had no intention of offending you; we were just passing by."
The old man sized up the group: "Since you're here, then play with me for a bit."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and stone pillars suddenly rose from the ground, rushing towards the crowd.
Liu Yu and the others quickly took cover.
"Why does this old man just start attacking like that?" Pigsy complained.
Liu Yu said, "Everyone, be careful!"
Xiaoqing used her magic to try to break the stone pillar.
The old man laughed and said, "Little girl, this skill is not enough."
Bai Suzhen also joined the battle, her ice magic colliding with the stone pillars, producing a series of loud noises.
Peach Blossom Fairy observed the old man's flaws from the side.
After a fierce battle, the group gradually gained the upper hand.
Seeing that things were going badly, the old man said, "I'm not playing anymore, I'm not playing anymore. You guys are really something."
Liu Yu said, "Old man, why are you making things difficult for us?"
The old man said, "This is just a small test to see if you are qualified to obtain the treasures in this valley."
"A treasure?" Everyone's eyes lit up.
The old man led the group to a cave and said, "The treasure is inside, but there are traps inside, so be careful."
Liu Yu and the others entered the cave, which was pitch black and filled with a mysterious atmosphere.
"Everyone be careful," Liu Yu reminded.
Suddenly, many traps appeared on the ground, and sharp spikes emerged from the ground.
"Ouch!" Pigsy accidentally stepped into a trap and cried out in pain.
Xiaoqing laughed and said, "Bajie, you're so careless."
Just as everyone was carefully avoiding the trap, a huge rock suddenly fell from the top of the cave.
Liu Yu reacted swiftly, splitting the stone in two with a single sword strike.
"That was close!" Xu Xian exclaimed, his face turning pale with fright.
After some twists and turns, they finally arrived at the depths of the cave.
A treasure chest was placed on the stone platform, radiating a dazzling light.
"Is this the treasure?" Xiaoqing ran over excitedly.
Just as she was about to touch the treasure chest, a barrier appeared and bounced her back.
"What should we do?" Xiaoqing said.
Liu Yu carefully observed the barrier, pondering how to break it.
At this moment, Bai Suzhen said, "Perhaps we can work together to break this barrier."
Everyone nodded and began to unleash their respective spells.
With everyone's efforts, the barrier was finally broken.
Xiaoqing eagerly opened the treasure chest, inside which was an ancient magic manual.
"Haha, we're going to be rich now!" Xiaoqing said happily.
Just as everyone was getting excited, the cave suddenly began to shake.
"Oh no, it's going to collapse!" Liu Yu shouted.
Everyone hurriedly ran out of the cave.
Just as they ran out of the cave, it collapsed with a loud crash.
"That was close!" Pigsy exclaimed, patting his chest.
After this serendipitous encounter, Liu Yu and Xiao Qing's relationship warmed up even more.
Xiaoqing said to Liu Yu, "Brother-in-law, I don't know what I would do without you."
Liu Yu smiled and said, "Silly girl, I will always protect you."
Bai Suzhen watched from the side, her heart filled with joy.
The group continued on their way, unaware of what awaited them ahead...
