Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Mist
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Changsheng was the first to open his eyes, looked at the sun hanging in the west, instantly woke up from the confusion, got up with a bone, and saw the python with his brain bursting in front of the big tree.
Shaking his head, Changsheng walked to Feng Jue's side, shook Feng Jue and shouted, "Brother Feng, wake up quickly, our time is running out!"
Feng snorted and woke up, and also noticed that the red sun was hanging in the west, knowing that the time was not early, he walked to Jiang Xueyi's side, shook her head, and said, "Xueyi, wake up......"
"That, Brother Feng, you build a fire here, I'll go find something to roast and eat!" Changsheng knew that Jiang Xueyi would definitely complain about himself after waking up, so he casually made an excuse and picked up the dagger and walked into the dense forest next to him.
"Uh, my whole body aches" Jiang Xueyi slowly opened his eyes, seeing that Feng Jiao was busy, he wanted to get up but fell down again, only then did he feel that there was no pain in his body, he glanced around, and did not see Changsheng, lying on the ground and angrily said, "What about Changsheng......, that bastard?
Speaking of this, Jiang Xueyi also felt that her words were inappropriate, and she couldn't help laughing, but she once again groaned and angrily reprimanded Changsheng!
"Alright, alright, if it weren't for immortality, we wouldn't know how to cross the river...... Changsheng also knows that you want to complain about him, so it's time to find something to eat!" Feng Ju said good things for Changsheng and helped Jiang Xueyi to sit up.
Waiting for Jiang Xueyi to slowly recover his strength, Feng Ji walked to the edge of the dense forest, looking for something to prepare for a fire!
Half an hour later, Feng Ji and Jiang Xueyi lit the fire, waited left and right, and saw Changsheng walking out of the dense forest with a frown, carrying six or seven fat mountain rats in his hands.
"Hey, Changsheng, isn't it good to get two wild pheasants to roast and eat? Why do you want to eat mice?" Jiang Xueyi rushed forward, ready to take the game in Changsheng's hand, but when he saw the mountain mouse, he instantly retracted his hand, and replied angrily!
Changsheng secretly rolled his eyes and said coldly, "There are still golden snub-nosed monkeys in the Qinling Mountains, do you eat monkey brains?"
Jiang Xueyi should have heard this for the first time, and asked curiously, "Can you still eat monkey brains?"
"It's easy...... Grab the live golden monkey, use a dagger to cut open the golden monkey's heavenly spirit cover, and then scoop it with a spoon to eat! Oh, I forgot, there is no spoon in the snow suit, so use your mouth to suck the golden monkey's head directly......
Before the words were finished, Jiang Xueyi couldn't help but rush to the side and retch, but unfortunately at this time, her stomach was empty, and she only vomited a few mouthfuls of sour water!
After messing with Jiang Xueyi, regardless of her retching while pointing at herself, Changsheng said solemnly to Feng Jue, "I don't know if it was the brother in front who swept the small animals here, or if there was another reason, I ran all over the mountains and forests, and I didn't see any small animals, not even birds and birds, it's really a little strange! I really can't help it, I just found a mountain mouse cave and brought back these seven mountain rats......
Feng Jue naturally didn't understand the reason, so he took a few mountain rats, walked to the river with Changsheng, disemboweled the mountain rats and cleaned them, and then threaded them with branches and took them to the fire for barbecue!
Although Jiang Xueyi was afraid of the live mountain mouse, the fragrance of the barbecue instantly replaced the fear in his heart, grabbed the hind legs of a mountain mouse, stared at Changsheng while gnawing on the meat on it, and muttered in his mouth, "Death and longevity, I will bite you"
After eating the meat of the mountain rats, drinking a few sips of mountain spring water, and recovering their strength, they watched the sun set in the west, and each picked up the wet map to compare it, found a mountain road, and began to climb over the last mountain beam......
By the time the three of them climbed the mountain beam, night had quietly fallen!
Feng Ju took out the map and carefully compared it, and smiled at the immortal next to him, "There are only a dozen miles away from the destination, and there are no mountains or rivers, so we will rest here for one night, and we will set off as soon as the morning dawns, and we can arrive at the destination before eight o'clock!"
"What is the deadline required by the sect?" Jiang Xueyi asked!
"Tomorrow morning ...... ten o'clock," Feng Ju replied with a smile, "don't worry, it's just too late!"
"Wait!" Changsheng shook his head and interjected, "I have an inexplicable feeling that something is wrong since we crossed the river......"
"What's wrong?"
"I can't tell what's wrong, but there's always a feeling of uneasiness, why don't we stop resting and go some more way?"
"Forget it, it's not appropriate to travel in the dark...... In this way, let's get up at dawn and rush to the location of the bronze tripod as soon as possible, how about it?"
When Changsheng heard Feng Jue's words, although he was apprehensive in his heart, he also knew that Feng Jue was right!
The mountain road was particularly difficult to walk under the cover of night, and the three of them were extremely tired, and it was definitely not a good thing to move forward in the dark, so they nodded, and the three of them lay down on the edge of the fire in their clothes, and fell into a groggy sleep......
When Changsheng woke up, the sky was not completely bright, and the entire dense forest seemed dark!
Turning over, seeing that Feng Ji and Jiang Xueyi around him were safe and sound, Changsheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, there was Jiang Xueyi, the daughter of the dean of the outer courtyard, by his side, even if the predecessors of the Mo family did not give accommodation, he must not deliberately make things difficult!
"Get up, it's time to go!" Changsheng shook Feng Ji and Jiang Xueyi.
"Hmm......" Jiang Xueyi and Feng Xuan woke up and turned around, seeing that the sky was not clear, they couldn't help complaining, "It's so early, there are still five or six hours!"
"It's better to act sooner rather than later, wait until we reach our destination safely and then rest, hurry up and ......" 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 any luggage, they straightened out their somewhat tattered clothes, proofread the direction of progress, and walked down the mountain beam on crutches!
When the sky was bright, the three of them had already walked to the main road of the plain below the mountain, and it was said that it was a big road, but compared with the faint mountain road, it was actually just a dirt road more than one meter wide.
There are strange nameless trees planted on the side of the road, and the huge shade of the trees is like a cover, covering the road into a semi-circular passage, and the cool mountain breeze blows on the body, and the three of them walk on the passage refreshed......
"Brother Feng, how much distance is there?" Jiang Xueyi walked behind Changsheng, and asked Feng Ji behind him without looking back!
"It's about seven or eight miles away!" Feng Jue glanced at the topographic map, estimating the distance.
At this time, a cloud of mist suddenly floated in the woods on the side of the road, and the fog came from both sides, and it didn't take long to cover the entire road surface, and the strange-shaped trees on both sides looked a little distorted in the fog, like a head of demons and monsters, standing beside the three of them with teeth and claws!
"Cut...... This is the last test?" Jiang Xueyi looked at the strange trees in the fog and snorted coldly.
"Don't speak, pass quickly!" Changsheng was slightly stunned, unable to think of any reason, but he had an ominous premonition in his heart, greeted the two behind him, and took the lead in rushing forward!
When the two of them heard Changsheng's slightly vibrasive tone, they also sensed that something was wrong, and rushed forward behind Changsheng!
After running for about five or six hundred meters, the speed of the three of them gradually slowed down, and it seemed that their steps were getting heavier and heavier, or the gravitational pull was getting stronger and stronger, making it a little difficult for the three of them to walk......
"Why are you running so fast, coward......" Jiang Xueyi suddenly looked at Changsheng at the front and scolded angrily, and then sighed, "Brother Feng, why did you become reckless?"
Feng Ju snorted coldly and didn't answer, but Changsheng could tell from the tone of the two that something was wrong!
Changsheng and Jiang Xueyi fought for a few days, and they knew Jiang Xueyi's temper, although she had a kind of eldest lady's temper, but her nature was simple and not malicious, why did the tone of her speech suddenly change?
Moreover, how can such a good-tempered person as Feng Ji be a little strange?
Could it be the cause of these fogs?
As if thinking of something, Changsheng roared in a low voice, "These fogs are a little weird, try not to breathe, speed up and pass through ......"
With that, Changsheng sped up and ran again!
Feng Ji and Jiang Xueyi were startled at the same time, and seemed to be aware of the violent meaning in their tones, so they instantly closed their mouths and ran behind Changsheng.
It's a pity, just as Changsheng expected, the speed of the three of them became slow again, Changsheng listened to the heavy breath of the two behind him, and his brows couldn't help but frown, what's wrong with these two guys? Why didn't he have a violent mood?
At this time, the mist was even thicker, and the clumps condensed, twisting like tentacles!
Changsheng couldn't see the road ahead clearly, and could only rely on the monster-like trees in the fog on both sides to discern the direction, but Jiang Xueyi and Feng Ji behind him gradually moved away from Changsheng, and it seemed that they couldn't keep up with Changsheng's pace.
"Uh......"
"Ah, don't ......"
A few meters away, a muffled roar of the wind sounded behind him, and then Jiang Xueyi's loud shout sounded!
Changsheng was slightly startled, and had a desire to move on, but only hesitated slightly, then secretly sighed and returned to the way he came, walking towards the two of them.
Looking at the strange behavior of the two, Changsheng was also a little surprised!
Feng Ji lay on the ground and kept rolling, shouting and shouting, while Jiang Xueyi staggered and stood not far away, waving the dagger in his hand and scolding in a low voice, as if someone in front of him wanted to hurt himself!
But Changsheng looked carefully, and he didn't see any figures!
"What are you doing, be sober!" Changsheng roared and rushed to Feng Jue's side, and gave Feng Jue a slap, Feng Jue was a little sober, and looked at Changsheng in front of him in fear.
"Hurry up, try not to breathe in the mist!" Changsheng roared at the wind, and then rushed to Jiang Xueyi's side, the dagger in Jiang Xueyi's hand swept away, and almost cut Changsheng's arm!
Jiang Xueyi practiced martial arts at a very young age, although she was young and still young, but she had a dagger in her hand, and Changsheng did not dare to approach recklessly, so she could only stand outside Jiang Xueyi's attack range and shout loudly, in order to wake up Jiang Xueyi.
At this time, Feng Ju was already a little sober, and he stood up staggering with a dagger in his hand, Changsheng looked back and saw Feng Ju's appearance, and said with a secret sigh, "Brother Feng, you stay awake and hurry up, and slap yourself if necessary......"
"Hmm......" Feng Jue replied blankly, and slapped himself in the mouth!
Changsheng secretly laughed, and didn't care about the wind anymore, taking advantage of Jiang Xueyi's dagger swing, he rushed to her side, hugged Jiang Xueyi, and slammed it to the ground......
"Uh, Changsheng, you dare to hit me...... Hey, what's wrong with Brother Feng?" Jiang Xueyi was a little sober under the fall, and saw that Changsheng was about to get angry when he beat him, but he saw Feng staggering past the two of them, as if he couldn't see the two of them, and walked forward while slapping himself!
"I don't know, it should be the reason for this fog, you also have to stay awake, let's go ......" Changsheng picked up Jiang Xueyi, took the dagger in Jiang Xueyi's hand and threw it on the ground, pulled her up and rushed to Feng Jue's side, and pulled a person with one hand and ran forward.
These two people are now thinking vaguely, Changsheng doesn't dare to let them hold weapons, and after thinking about it, even throw away their own daggers together!
At first, the two of them were still a little sober, but as the running speed became slower and slower, even with Changsheng slowed down, Changsheng glanced at the two of them, and gave the two of them a mouth without hesitation.
'Pap, pap' two crisp sounds, straight to the point that Feng Jue and Jiang Xueyi were starry, fortunately, the two of them still had a trace of reason, knowing that Changsheng was also for their own good, although their brows were furrowed, they didn't say anything!
In this way, Changsheng pulled the two of them to run, and after running for more than ten meters, he gave the two of them a mouth, and after running for a few miles, not to mention that the cheeks of the two were swollen, even Changsheng's hands were swollen, and he secretly thought while running, it turned out that beating people was also very tiring.
