The most intelligent general in the world

Chapter 243: Exit First

This valley holds an amazing secret.

Young Master Dongfang nodded slightly. All the direct disciples of Confucianism are masters, and their cultivation is close to the grandmaster level.

Someone actually died here inexplicably. This place is definitely not an ordinary place.

The dangers ahead may be even greater. Should we consider exploring in another direction?

Zhang Tang hesitated to speak and finally just shook his head.

"We can't get out of this valley at all. This is the only clue we can follow. We must find out what's going on, otherwise we might be trapped here forever."

Young Master Dongfang nodded in agreement. Zhang Liang put Young Master Dongfang down from his back and continued walking.

As you go deeper into the cave, the space gradually opens up.

Half an hour later, what they saw before them was a huge cave, as if the entire mountain range had been hollowed out, with a wooden house standing in the center of the cave.

There was nothing else in the cave. Zhang Liang and Master Dongfang stood on the edge of the mountain and did not approach the central wooden house.

It is amazing here! We were completely safe and sound on the road without any danger.

But I still felt vaguely uneasy, as if there was some danger waiting for us ahead.

Zhang Liang nodded in agreement.

He felt the same way, and with unusual intensity.

But there is no way back now. Only by finding clues here can we have a chance to leave this valley.

Zhang Liang placed Prince Dongfang on the ground and said to him:

"Wait here for a while. Let the little golden monkey accompany you and ensure your safety. I'll go to the wooden house in the middle and will be back soon."

Young Master Dongfang was about to suggest that they go together, but he swallowed the words back.

He knew that Zhang Liang's movements would be restricted if he carried him on his back.

Staying here is the best choice.

Young Master Dongfang nodded, but his worry remained unabated.

He reminded: "Then be careful. If there is any danger, come back immediately. Maybe we can find another way out."

Zhang Liang nodded and said to the little golden monkey, "You take good care of this sister. I will be back soon."

The little golden monkey nodded wisely.

Zhang Liang walked slowly towards the wooden house in the center, carefully observing the surrounding environment along the way.

The entire valley floor had strange textures that were dizzying. Zhang Liang realized that his realm was still shallow.

These textures are profound and difficult to understand, and it is difficult for him to comprehend them with his current strength.

As we got closer to the cabin, the sense of crisis became stronger.

……

This is a simple wooden cottage that has not been decorated in any way and retains its original appearance.

The wooden house has no windows, only a tightly closed wooden door.

There was an iron lock hanging on the door, as if it was locking up a demon.

Zhang Liang approached and drew out the sword of immortality.

The tip of the sword touched the iron lock, making a crisp sound.

With the sharpness of the Changsheng Sword, the iron chain should break immediately.

However, at this moment, the iron chain was intact, without even a scratch.

Zhang Liang slowly lifted the iron lock that locked the wooden house.

There was no keyhole on it, and it looked like a chain made of pure iron.

There was a strange mark on the iron lock, but it could not be seen with the naked eye.

Tensor felt around with his fingers and saw a mark that resembled an eye with a flame burning above it.

This was a peculiar mark, and Zhang Liang studied it for a moment before putting it down.

He tried to push the door, intending to open it by force.

Zhang Liang's strength penetrated into the door panel, and he was surprised to find that this was not an ordinary door.

His strength and true energy quickly flowed back into his body. Zhang Liang felt that if he used his true energy to attack again, the newly recovered true energy would be sucked away completely.

The sword hit the beam of the house, and the wooden house was indeed extremely solid. After the sword of immortality chopped it down, no trace was left.

Zhang Liang walked around the wooden house carefully for a long time, but still couldn't find a way to open the door.

The entire wooden house seems to be integrated with the heaven and earth, without any flaws.

Still feeling a sense of crisis, Zhang Liang slowly retreated.

Zhang Liang told Master Dongfang what he had seen, and the two sat down to analyze the matter carefully.

Mr. Dongfang suddenly said, "Describe the mark on the lock again."

Zhang Liang took the sword and drew the shape he had touched on the ground.

It was a round eye with a ball of fire above it.

Seeing this pattern, Mr. Dongfang fell into deep thought. After a long time, he opened his eyes and said in confusion:

"I have seen this pattern in an ancient book. At that time, I thought it was just a myth. I never thought it would appear in reality."

Zhang Liang asked anxiously: "What is this pattern and what does it mean?"

In ancient times, during the era of Huangdi and Yandi, there existed such a tribe.

They do not believe in heaven and earth, but believe in an animal that does not exist in this world.

It may be a figment of people's imagination, but in that tribe, this non-existent animal is regarded as a protector.

In the tribe, this animal is like a god.

Zhang Liang suddenly asked: "What kind of animal is this?"

All we know is that this animal has only one eye.

According to legend, this animal's eyes were the first to open after Pangu created the world, and they possess magical powers.

It can devour everything in the world. It has a slender body and is as flexible as a snake.

But it has four claws, each with a barb, its body is covered with long feathers, and it has a pair of long wings behind it.

It is said that when its wings are spread, they can block out the sky and the sun.

Its head has only this one eye and no ears, mouth or nose.

So the tribe named it "One-eyed Holy Spirit".

The eye on the totem symbolizes this animal - the one-eyed Holy Spirit.

The ball of fire represents light and symbolizes the greatness of this mythical beast.

Later records show that this tribe disappeared from the land of China and never appeared again. I didn't expect to see this sign here today.

I used to think it was a myth.

After listening to what Young Master Dongfang said, Zhang Liang felt that things became even more mysterious.

It is like being wrapped in a mysterious fog, making it impossible to see the truth but making people feel fearful and uneasy.

Young Master Dongfang suggested: "Let's go back and look in the valley to see if there is another exit. I am becoming more and more uneasy. I always feel like countless pairs of eyes are watching me."

Zhang Liang thought about it and nodded in agreement.

There is no point staying here, the only clue is in that wooden house.

Now the wooden house is indestructible and cannot be opened, so we can only try to retreat first.

Maybe there is another way out. Zhang Liang also felt the kind of devastating feeling...
