Chapter Thirty-Two: Notification
After passing through the "Tianmen", Jiang Yunshui and his companions felt as if they had truly arrived in a fairyland. The surrounding area was shrouded in a thin mist, with pavilions, temples and palaces hidden within, giving off an air of mystery.
Along a bluestone-paved path, under the careful guidance of Cha Qianzong, Jiang Feng and others finally approached the palace where the tower was located. These buildings rose in a ladder-like manner, and the one at the very center was particularly eye-catching, as it was adorned with blue stones that shone like stars, making the palace appear deep and secluded.
However, people like Jiang Yunshui today are far away from the imperial palace at the very center.
Zha Qianzhong said to Pang San: "Your adopted son and Jin Douzi are both in this group now. Are you going to look for them or join the outside?"
"We'd better split up for now."
After that, Pang San Ye had already left with his men, while Cha Qian Zhang also followed Jiang Yun Shui and the others from the other side of the wall, which had a door on each side.
Now the door on that wall had already been opened, it was probably Du Zhong and Jin Touzi who came in earlier. When they arrived at the gate of this wall, Zha Qian and others did not rush to enter.
Jiang Fengshui and the others stood still, looking at Cha Qianzong who gazed at each of their faces for a long time before speaking: "The brothers from our Haozi Camp who followed me into this place are now just you few. The purpose of our Haozi Camp coming to 'Emperor's Crown Mountain', you all understand in your hearts, and I don't need to say more to you now. And as for Qinling brothers, I won't hide it from you either. I think you've also heard about this thing - the 'Zixu Treasure Book' that our line of work has been searching for over a thousand years. Now we have a 99% certainty that it's here."
Qin Ling, who truly understood the truth of the matter, also felt his head buzzing with excitement, for this "Zi Xu's Stolen Book" was indeed a sacred and secret scripture in their line of work. Legend had it that if one could obtain even just one of these books, they would be able to turn an ordinary person into a master.
"Zhen, now looking at Jiang Yunshui said: "Yunshui! Some things are too much to hide from you until now, I'll tell you everything here, so you can understand why I brought you out of those people."
This time Jiang Yunshui felt tense in his heart, because Zha Qian suddenly called him "Yunshui", he understood that what Zha Qian said next would make him extremely surprised.
"Indeed, as I expected," said Cha Qianzong, "you are Jiang Yunshui, the son of my sworn brother Jiang Jing and sister-in-law Lu Ni. Back then, Brother Jiang went to Yunnan to search for clues about the 'Zi Xu Thief's Book', but unfortunately, he and seven other brothers were trapped in the 'Yunnan Demon Tomb' and their fates remain unknown. After Sister-in-law Lu found out, she left our camp abruptly, not knowing that she was already pregnant with Brother Jiang's child - you! Her departure was too sudden, and we lost contact with her. Until recently, when someone from our camp saw the unique mark of our organization, we realized that Sister-in-law had been searching for us all along. She told us that over the years, she had gathered some information about the 'Yunnan Demon Tomb', and now that you've grown up, she plans to entrust you to our care."
Jiang Yunshui now only feels a bit dizzy, he didn't expect things to turn out this way, all of this is simply unacceptable to him.
It was precisely this provocation that caused Jiang Fengshan to abruptly interrupt Cha Qian's words, shouting at him: "Where is my mother? Where is my mother?"
Although Jiang Yunshui scolded him, Cha Qianzhong didn't get angry. Instead, he spoke with a hint of guilt: "The task that Big Sister entrusted to us, we brothers naturally have to do our best. We also planned to bring you and Big Sister back together. However, Big Sister refused, saying she still had things to take care of. She only asked us to bring you away and told us not to tell you the truth too early, but to temper you well instead. How could we let Big Sister suffer again? But when I made arrangements and came back, Big Sister was already gone, leaving behind only a letter. And at that time, you weren't even at home. After inquiring everywhere, I found out that your village had been recruiting soldiers, so I chased after the recruits to find you."
The people from the other camps also just found out about this entanglement and that the young man in front of them was actually the son of Big Brother. As for Qin Ling, he was even more shocked by Zhang Qian's words and stared blankly at Jiang Yunshui.
Jiang Yunshui was completely stunned, he didn't expect his own mother to leave him like that, throwing him into the midst of these people. And now he also understood many things that had happened before, all because of this sudden emergence of his identity.
Jiang Feng's body suddenly became somewhat unstable, his head also felt a bit dizzy, and he almost fell backwards, fortunately several people beside him were quick to react and supported Jiang Feng, only then did he not fall down.
It's not that Jiang Yunshui's body is weak, but rather the things he experienced since entering "Emperor's Crown Mountain" have been stimulating him time and again. Now, having heard this about his own life story, as an older brother and a crowned man, this blow was something he couldn't withstand.
Zha Qianzong looked at Jiang Yunshui's expression and revealed a painful look, he knew that saying these things out loud, especially in this situation, would be unbearable for Jiang Yunshui.
But he must make it clear at this time, because Cha Qian has a feeling that once he enters the door of this wall, he will not be able to come out. As the current helmsman of Huozi Camp, he must personally tell Jiang Yunshui about this matter.
Jiang Yunshui, who was pinched awake by someone, looked around with some haziness in his eyes. Gradually, the figures before him began to clear up, and the images of Zha Qian and others entered his eyes, making him realize that everything had really happened.
Jiang Yunshui pushed away the person supporting him and looked at Cha Qianzong, saying: "The letter my mother left behind, is it on you?"
Zha Qianzong took out a folded square paper from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Yunshui, who received it with trembling hands. After hesitating for a moment, he unfolded the letter.
The above passage roughly translates to:
It was to let Jiang Yunshui listen to the words of several uncles in Huoziying, and to remind him that he is the son of Jiang Jing, and to do what a person should do after having the ability. That is, to go to the tomb of the demon in Yunnan Province to find his father, whether it's his corpse or something else. Finally, it made clear its own direction, saying that it would first go to Yunnan to find clues and would tell Jiang Yunshui about these clues later, so that he could find his father and the people trapped in the demon tomb in Huoziying in the future.
After gazing at the letter for a while, Jiang Yunshui slowly refolded the paper neatly and placed it close to his heart. He pressed it there for a moment before his eyes became even more piercing than before.
Cha Qianzong saw Jiang Yunshui's change and was secretly delighted in his heart, knowing that Jiang Yunshui did not disappoint him and was able to recover so quickly.
Qian Chenglin and several others, including Qin Ling, were also extremely impressed that Jiang Feng could recover so quickly from the blow, thinking to themselves that he was indeed the son of Big Brother and Jiang Jing.
Jiang Fengshui stood up straight, bowed his head and clasped his fists in greeting: "Junior Jiang Fengshui pays respects to Uncle Cha, to all the uncles of the Haozi Camp, and to my elder brothers."
"Zhenqian helped him up and said, 'Shuizhong, you really surprised me. It seems we didn't misjudge you. Your training under Big Sister is impressive, and you're indeed worthy of being Big Brother's son!'"
Jiang Yunshui replied: "Thank you, Uncle Cha."
Cha Qian nodded and said to Jiang Yunshui, "This time entering this place with me, now only Cheng Lin and a few others are left. Moreover, this is the Qinling Mountains of Chuanshan Gate, and I have a deep friendship with Haozi Camp, and we fought side by side all the way."
Jiang Fengshui also bowed towards Qinling and said: "I have seen brother."
Qin Ling smiled and said, "Brother Shui, you are indeed formidable. I don't have much to give you here, but this 'Chuanshan Jiafu' can be used as a protective mirror, capable of withstanding the force of a single strike from an undead creature."
Jiang Yunshui was not willing to accept it, but Zhao Qian repeatedly urged him, saying: "I've heard of the 'Chuanshan Jiafu' for years. This treasure was given to you by Qinling, so hurry up and take it."
After hearing what Cha Qian said, Jiang Yunshui took over the "Chuan Shan Jia Fu" and, under Qin Ling's guidance, put it on his heart.
Cha Qianzhong felt that everything had been clearly entrusted and also thought that there was nothing else pressing on his mind, so he said to Jiang Yunshui and several others: "Let's go in!"
After finishing speaking, it was still Zha Qian who first passed through the door on the wall, followed by Qin Ling second, then Jiang Yunshui, and then Qi Changlin and several others from the Qi family.
As they entered the inner chamber, Jiang Yunshui and the others discovered that what they had seen earlier was too ordinary. Every place in this area was filled with precious treasures, even the rocks of the artificial hill were piled up with large pieces of jade.
It is also from the jade surface of this fake mountain that white mist emerges from time to time, making the tomb of geomagnetism suspended in the air as if it were shrouded in fairy mist.
And those half-hidden pavilions and galleries, as well as the central palace, now appear even more mysterious, like a celestial palace situated beyond the nine heavens.
On the yellow-edged and red-bottomed plaque above the main hall, there are now three golden characters shining brightly, dazzling to behold.
Jiang Fengshui looked at the three characters on the plaque and read: "Cheng Tian Gong!"
