Chapter 27: Mist
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Changsheng opened his eyes first, glanced at the sun hanging in the west, and instantly woke up from his confusion. He climbed up and saw the python with its brains bursting in front of the big tree. Only then did he remember that he was holding the python and rushing towards it.
The passage out of the river made me a little scared for a while!
Shaking his head, Changsheng walked to Feng Jue, shook Feng Jue and shouted, "Brother Feng, wake up quickly, we don't have much time!"
Feng Jue woke up with a groan and noticed the red sun hanging in the west. Knowing that it was getting late, he walked to Jiang Xueyi, shook her head and said, "Xueyi, wake up quickly..."
"
"Well, Brother Feng, you make a fire here, and I'll find something to roast and eat!" Changsheng knew that Jiang Xueyi would definitely blame himself after waking up, so he found an excuse at random, picked up the dagger and walked into the side.
in the dense forest.
"Uh, my whole body aches." Jiang Xueyi slowly opened his eyes and saw Feng Jue busy. He wanted to get up but fell down again. Only then did he feel that there was no pain in his whole body. He glanced around and saw that there was no pain.
Seeing Changsheng, he lay on the ground and said angrily, "Where is that bastard Changsheng? Can you open a snake..."
Speaking of this, Jiang Xueyi also felt that her words were inappropriate, and couldn't help but laugh, but then she yelled angrily and scolded Changsheng again!
"Okay, okay, if it weren't for Changsheng, we still don't know how to cross the river... Changsheng also knows that you want to blame him, and now you are looking for food!" Feng Jue said kind words to Changsheng,
Help Jiang Xueyi sit up.
Waiting for Jiang Xueyi to slowly regain her strength, Feng Jue walked to the edge of the dense forest, looking for something to make a fire!
Half an hour later, Feng Jue and Jiang Xueyi lit the fire and waited until they saw Changsheng walking out of the dense forest with a frown on his face, carrying six or seven fat mountain rats in his hand.
"Hey, Changsheng, wouldn't it be better to get two pheasants to roast and eat? Why do you want to eat mice?" Jiang Xueyi came forward excitedly, ready to take the game from Changsheng's hand, but when he saw the mountain rats,
He retracted his hand instantly and replied angrily!
Chang Sheng secretly rolled his eyes and said coldly, "There are golden monkeys in the Qinling Mountains. Do you want to eat the monkey brains?"
This must be the first time Jiang Xueyi heard about this, so she curiously asked, "Can monkey brains be eaten? How?"
"It's easy...catch a live golden monkey, use a dagger to cut open the golden monkey's Tianling Cap, and then scoop it up with a spoon! Oh, I forgot, Xueyi doesn't have a spoon, so just put your mouth directly on the golden monkey's head
suck......"
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Xueyi couldn't help but rushed to the side and retched. Unfortunately, her stomach was empty at this time, and she only vomited a few mouthfuls of sour water!
After teasing Jiang Xueyi, regardless of her retching and pointing at herself, Chang Sheng solemnly said to Feng Jue, "I don't know if the brothers in front of me wiped out the little animals here, or for other reasons. I've been everywhere.
In most of the forest, I didn’t see any small animals, not even birds, which was really strange! I had no other choice, so I found a mountain rat cave and brought back these seven mountain rats.
....."
Naturally, Feng Jue didn't understand the reason. He picked up a few mountain rats and walked to the river with Changsheng. He disemboweled the mountain rats and cleaned them, then tied them up with branches and grilled them on the fire!
Although Jiang Xueyi was afraid of live mountain rats, the smell of barbecue instantly replaced her fear in her heart. She grabbed a hind leg of a mountain rat, gnawed the meat on it while staring at Changsheng, and muttered "Death Changsheng"
,I bite you”
The three of them ate mountain rat meat and drank a few sips of mountain spring water, and their strength was restored. Watching the sun set to the west, they each picked up the wet map, compared it, found a mountain road, and began to climb the last step.
A mountain ridge......
By the time the three of them climbed the mountain ridge, night had quietly fallen!
Feng Jue took out the map and compared it carefully. He smiled at Chang Sheng beside him and said, "There are only a dozen miles away from the destination. There are no mountains or rivers. Let's rest here for one night and set off as soon as dawn.
We’ll arrive at our destination before eight o’clock!”
"What is the deadline required by the sect?" Jiang Xueyi asked!
"At ten o'clock tomorrow morning..." Feng Jue replied with a smile, "Don't worry, there's still enough time!"
"Wait a minute!" Changsheng shook his head and interjected, "I have an inexplicable feeling. It seems that something is wrong since we crossed the river..."
"What's wrong?"
"I can't tell what's wrong, but I always feel uneasy. How about we stop taking a rest and drive a while longer?"
"Forget it, it's not appropriate to travel in the dark... How about we get up at dawn and get to the location of the bronze cauldron as soon as possible?"
Changsheng heard Feng Jue's words, although he felt uneasy in his heart, but he also knew that Feng Jue's words were reasonable!
It was especially difficult to walk down the mountain in the darkness of night, and the three of them were extremely tired. It was definitely not a good thing to go forward in the dark, so they nodded, and the three of them lay down next to the fire in their clothes and fell asleep...
...
When Changsheng woke up, the sky was not completely bright yet, and the entire dense forest seemed pitch black!
Turning over, he saw that Feng Jue and Jiang Xueyi beside him were safe and sound. Changsheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. With Jiang Xueyi, the daughter of the dean of the outer courtyard, beside him, even if the seniors of the Mo family did not give in, he would not deliberately create difficulties!
"Get up, let's go!" Changsheng shook Feng Jue and Jiang Xueyi.
"Well..." Jiang Xueyi and Feng Jueyun woke up and turned around. Seeing that the sky was still dark, they couldn't help complaining, "It's so early, there are still five or six hours left!"
"It is better to act sooner rather than later. We will wait until we reach our destination safely before resting. Hurry up..." Changsheng kicked the two of them and began to prepare for the last leg of the journey.
In fact, the three of them didn't have much luggage. They straightened their somewhat tattered clothes, checked their direction, and each walked down the ridge on crutches!
When the sky was bright, the three of them had already reached the main road in the plain at the foot of the mountain. Compared with the vague mountain road, it was said to be a main road. In fact, it was just a dirt road more than one meter wide.
There are strange and unknown trees planted on the roadside. The huge tree shade is like a cover, covering the road into a semi-circular passage. The cool mountain breeze blows on them, and the three of them walk on the passage refreshed.
...
"Brother Feng, how long is the distance?" Jiang Xueyi walked behind Changsheng and asked Feng Jue behind him without looking back!
"It's about seven or eight miles away!" Feng Jue looked at the terrain map and estimated the distance.
At this time, clouds of fog suddenly floated in the woods on the roadside. The fog came from both sides, and soon the entire road was obscured. The strange-shaped trees on both sides looked a little distorted in the fog, like monsters and monsters, with teeth and claws.
Standing next to the three of them!
"Tch...is this the last test?" Jiang Xueyi looked at the strange trees in the mist and snorted coldly.
"Stop talking and pass quickly!" Changsheng was slightly startled and couldn't think of any reason, but he had an ominous premonition in his heart. He called to the two people behind him and rushed forward first!
When Feng Jue and the other two heard Chang Sheng's slightly trembling tone, they also sensed something was wrong, and they followed Chang Sheng and ran forward!
After running about five or six hundred meters, the speed of the three of them gradually slowed down. It seemed that their footsteps were getting heavier and heavier, or that the gravity of the earth was getting stronger and stronger, making it a little difficult for the three of them to walk...
"Why are you running so fast? You coward..." Jiang Xueyi suddenly looked at Chang Sheng in the front and yelled angrily, and then said "Brother Feng, why are you so reckless?"
Feng Jue snorted coldly and did not answer, but Changsheng could tell something was wrong from the tone of the two men!
Chang Sheng had been bickering with Jiang Xueyi for a few days, and had gained some understanding of Jiang Xueyi's temper. Although she had the temper of a young lady, her nature was simple and not malicious. Why did her tone of voice suddenly change?
Moreover, why is a person with such a good temper like Feng Jue so strange?
Is this the reason for the fog?
As if he thought of something, Changsheng roared, "These fogs are a bit weird. Try not to breathe and speed up to pass..."
Having said that, Changsheng speeded up and ran away again!
Feng Jue and Jiang Xueyi were startled at the same time. They seemed to be aware of the violence in his tone. They immediately closed their mouths and ran after Changsheng.
Unfortunately, just as Changsheng expected, the speed of the three of them slowed down again. Changsheng listened to the heavy breathing of the two people behind him and frowned secretly. What happened to these two guys? Why didn't he show violent emotions?
At this time, the mist became thicker, condensing into clumps, twisting like tentacles!
Changsheng could no longer see the road ahead clearly, and could only rely on the monster-like trees in the mist on both sides to identify the direction. However, Jiang Xueyi and Feng Jue behind him gradually moved away from Changsheng, and seemed to be unable to keep up with Changsheng's pace.
"Well......"
"Ah, don't..."
Feng Jue's muffled roar sounded from behind a few meters away, followed by Jiang Xueyi's loud shout!
Changsheng was slightly startled and wanted to move on, but after hesitating for a moment, he secretly sighed and returned to the way he came, and walked towards Feng Jue and the others.
Seeing the strange behavior of the two people, Changsheng was also a little surprised!
Feng Jue was lying on the ground rolling around, shouting and shouting, while Jiang Xueyi stood staggering not far away, waving the dagger in his hand and shouting curses in a low voice, as if someone in front of him wanted to hurt him!
But Changsheng looked carefully and didn't see anyone!
"What are you doing? Wake up!" Changsheng roared and rushed to Feng Jue's side, giving Feng Jue a slap in the face. Only then did Feng Jue wake up a little and looked at Changsheng in front of him in fear.
"Get up quickly and try not to breathe the mist!" Changsheng roared to Feng Jue, then rushed to Jiang Xueyi's side. Jiang Xueyi swiped the dagger in his hand and almost cut Changsheng's arm!
Jiang Xueyi has practiced martial arts since she was very young. Although she is young and has only a limited level of cultivation, she has a dagger in her hand. Chang Sheng does not dare to approach recklessly. She can only stand outside Jiang Xueyi's attack range and shout loudly in order to
Jiang Xueyi woke up.
At this time, Feng Jue had already woken up for a while. He stood up unsteadily with a dagger in his hand. Changsheng turned around and saw Feng Jue's appearance. He sighed secretly and said, "Brother Feng, stay awake and hurry up. If necessary,
Slap yourself..."
"Well..." Feng Jue replied blankly and slapped himself in the mouth!
Chang Sheng secretly laughed, and didn't care about Feng Jue anymore. Taking advantage of Jiang Xueyi's dagger swinging, he rushed to her side, hugged Jiang Xueyi, and threw him to the ground...
...
"Uh, Changsheng, you dare to hit me... Hey, what's wrong with Brother Feng?" Jiang Xueyi woke up a little after the fall. She was about to get angry when she saw Changsheng beating herself, but saw Feng Jue staggering away from him.
He walked past the two of them, as if he couldn't see them, slapping himself and walking forward!
"I don't know either. It must be the reason for this fog. You have to stay awake. Let's go..." Changsheng helped Jiang Xueyi up, took the dagger from Jiang Xueyi's hand and threw it on the ground.
He pulled her up and ran to Feng Jue's side. He picked up another person with one hand and ran forward.
These two people are thinking vaguely now. Chang Sheng did not dare to let them hold weapons. After thinking about it, he even threw away his own dagger!
At first, the two of them were still a little awake, but as their running speed became slower and slower, Changsheng also slowed down. Changsheng glanced at the two of them and gave them a slap in the face without hesitation.
Two crisp sounds of 'pop, pop' made Feng Jue and Jiang Xueyi look like stars. Fortunately, they still had some sense and knew that immortality was for their own good. Although they frowned, they didn't say anything!
In this way, Changsheng pulled the two of them and ran away. After running for more than ten meters, he gave them a mouthful. After running for several miles, not to mention the swelling of their cheeks, even Changsheng's hands were swollen.
Chapter completed!
