The Villain's Counterattack

Lin Pingzhi sponsored Huashan, but temporarily lent the twenty flying cavalrymen around him to Yue Buqun. One was used to patrol the safety of Huayin County at the foot of Huashan, the second was to guard the mountain gate, and the third could serve as sparring partners to increase the practical experience of his disciples. It was not easy to find twenty reliable second-rate players.

When they heard that Lin Pingzhi wanted to temporarily use the Cliff of Regret to practice martial arts, all the disciples were a little gloating. But when they heard that this bastard felt lonely and wanted to pull someone up to accompany him, they all ran away very fast. In the end, Linghu Chong was caught by him because he got too close.

Seeing that the eldest brother was so "righteous" and "voluntarily" fell into the tiger's mouth, many younger brothers came to express their gratitude to the eldest brother. At the same time, they praised him highly and said that they would go up to deliver meals on time and make Siguo Cliff beautiful and comfortable to let the eldest brother suffer less.

They actually did so, delivering things to the Cliff of Repentance time and time again. But seeing how excited they were, it seemed like they wished they could stay there permanently, right?

Later, I found out that it was that bastard Lin Pingzhi who took advantage of the situation and asked these junior brothers for help. In Lin Pingzhi's own words, since I have money, why not let myself live a better life.

Desolate mountains and wilderness?

That doesn't exist. Even if it's a barren mountain, this young master can use money to build a mansion out of it. It just depends on whether you want it or not.

It was necessary to be cautious when starting construction there, so Lin Pingzhi first made the cave above the Cliff of Repentance a little more comfortable. It took six disciples a lot of effort to move the big bed up there.

But why was there only one? My own bed was just a cobbled-together plank bed, even the bedding was from the guest room. That bastard Lin Pingzhi's bedding was all high-quality, newly purchased items from the county town. While a plank bed was much more comfortable than sleeping on stones, there was no harm without comparison. That bastard Lin Pingzhi looked so abominable no matter how I looked at him.

There was no benefit in delivering food to the eldest brother, but delivering food to Lin Pingzhi would earn him guidance and a free herbal meal, which was Lin Pingzhi's promise. As a result, delivering food to the Cliff of Repentance became a popular job. In the past, only those with particularly good relationships or those who had been ostracized would do it, but now everyone was vying for it.

Finally, Yue Buqun spoke. Lingshan should deliver Chong'er's food, and everyone should take turns delivering Lin Pingzhi's food. You can decide who goes first and who goes later.

Linghu Chong was taken to the Cliff of Repentance partly because Lin Pingzhi was bored, and partly because Yue Buqun said it was punishment. Linghu Chong did a great job saving the young nun Yilin from the Hengshan Sect, but his nonsense about the three poisons offended the nuns on Hengshan, forcing him to express his gratitude.

The eldest brother's meal was exactly the same as the others', but Lin Pingzhi's was incredibly sumptuous. Seeing others feasting on delicacies while I ate simple meals every day, I felt this punishment was a bit excessive. All the brothers observed a three-second silence for the eldest brother, then began to discuss whether they should sneak in a little food along the way.

Forget about it. Delivering food has its advantages, but he always has a cavalryman accompanying him, reporting to Lin Pingzhi and asking for instructions, which happens every day. Although this guy seems to be enjoying the scenery, he remotely controls the crippled Fuwei Escort Agency and is the unwavering boss behind the scenes.

As night fell, Lin Pingzhi, Linghu Chong, Yue Lingshan, Yue Buqun, and Ning Zhongze had dinner on the Cliff of Regret. The two flying knights packed up their things and left alone.

"I have checked a lot of information, but there is no clear statement that can prove that a master has lived in seclusion here. If it was just a place for sword fighting, there should not be any secret books left behind. Even if there were, they would have been taken away by later generations long ago." Yue Buqun was not optimistic about Lin Pingzhi's plan.

"Then do you know where Hong Qigong, the Beggar of the North, and Ouyang Feng, the Poison of the West, died?" Lin Pingzhi asked. Yue Buqun was slightly stunned, then quickly realized, "Huashan."

"Mt. Zhongnan and Mt. Hua are both famous mountains. Many hermits and sages have lived in seclusion here. It is very likely that they were buried here in the end. However, these sages have amazing abilities in moving high and low, so their hiding places must be difficult to find. If there is no harvest on the Cliff of Repentance, I will search the entire Mt. Hua, and will not let go of any cliffs and other places." Lin Pingzhi finally found someone who was willing to cooperate with him, so naturally he would not miss the opportunity. The people in Mt. Song, Mt. Heng, Mt. Wudang, and Mt. Tai would not indulge him like this.

"Where should I start?" Yue Buqun actually had a little desire in his heart, the desire to find some secret books, preferably peerless secret books.

"I plan to take three steps. The first step is to find everything on the surface, such as the cave walls and cracks between boulders."

"The second step is to dig a chisel into the ground to measure the direction of the rocks and see if there is a tomb or something buried underneath."

"The third step is a steep cliff. You'll need a long rope and other people to help you. It's quite dangerous."

Yue Lingshan was very interested in treasure hunting. Since everyone present was reliable, she was eager to try. "Let's get started. Where should we start looking today?"

"The darkest place under the lamp is the most terrible. Let's check the surrounding area first." Lin Pingzhi pointed to the resting cave and said, "This cave is not big, but it is the most suitable place to live in the entire Siguo Cliff. Let's start with it. Oh, and check the stone with the word Siguo on it carefully too."

Several people dispersed and each tried to check everything, but Ning Zhongze just looked around and hardly took any action. Yue Lingshan did take some action, but what's the point of checking those small stones?

Linghu Chong worked very hard. After all, his master, mistress, and sisters were all watching. He even poked at the cracks in the stone with his sword. Shouldn't he be digging outwards at this time? What's the point of constantly poking inwards?

Lin Pingzhi slapped his forehead and realized that this group of people were not reliable at all. It was probably hopeless to ask them to find things. Everything depended on himself.

He took a quick look around with a torch in hand, silently recorded the terrain on paper, and then calculated various distances. In just half an hour, he drew a three-dimensional picture of the entire cave, which left Yue Buqun, Ning Zhongze, Linghu Chong, and Yue Lingshan stunned. There was actually such a method?

To explore a cave, you need to take in everything inside and outside the cave, so that you can see more carefully and deeply.

"Here, here, and here, these three places need to be checked carefully. They are much higher than the outside." Lin Pingzhi said that he is a technical expert and can command you guys who are just doing the work.

Linghu Chong ran over happily, took a hammer (the tool prepared by Lin Pingzhi) and knocked around, but found nothing. He ran back with a resentful look on his face.

"Here, here, the stones in these two places look a bit strange and worth pondering." Lin Pingzhi had just finished speaking when Yue Lingshan ran over with an axe in her hand.

After seven or eight consecutive failures, everyone no longer had any hope in Lin Pingzhi's deduction.

Lin Pingzhi scratched his head, somewhat unsure, and said, "That doesn't make sense. Is there something wrong with this calculation method?"

"Mr. Lin, it is better to have no books than to believe in them blindly. Your picture is very good, but this cave may not be dug out by humans, so..." So things in nature often cannot be calculated in this way. Yue Buqun turned around and left with a smile. It was really not easy to see Lin Pingzhi being humiliated.

"Tsk, I don't believe it. If I knock on the whole cave, there will be something hidden." Lin Pingzhi simply picked up a small hammer and started knocking along the cave. This guy did not take the usual approach. He did not knock vertically from one place, but knocked from bottom to top.

"Linghu Chong, leave the ones below one person to me, and you can handle the ones above one person, and practice your lightness skills at the same time." Lin Pingzhi had no psychological burden at all about ordering Linghu Chong. As long as Yue Buqun felt it was good for Linghu Chong, he would not refuse, which made Linghu Chong very helpless.

"Ding~Ding~Ding~" "Ding~Ding~Ding~" "Dong~"

"Wait, Linghu Chong, stop for a moment. The sound just now seemed a little strange." Lin Pingzhi knocked very carefully, so the speed was very slow. Linghu Chong knocked while jumping, and his speed was much faster than Lin Pingzhi. This bastard only knocked once every one or two meters.
