"Is this direction?" Lu Tao looked at the canopy of the big trees that covered the sky and the sun around him, and felt that the road was really quite difficult to walk.

"Well, I can feel a voice calling from that direction. Mo Lan nodded, then pointed to a mountain covered with green vegetation in the distance and said to Lu Tao.

Lu Tao glanced at the upper part of the mountain covered with white, and while he was a little suspicious of why Luo Jing was obviously located in the plain, why there was such a high mountain nearby, and prayed that the voice that Mo Lan said calling her would not be on the top of the mountain.

At most, halfway up the mountain, if it is to the top of the mountain, Lu Tao really doesn't know if he can climb it.

This is a forest, and the terrain has changed from the direction of Lu Tao's previous search for the Immeasurable View, from a plain area with little undulation to a hilly area full of mountains—some can only be called a breakthrough.

As soon as the sun came out, Lu Tao set off with Mo Lan.

Kuro seems to have eaten a bad stomach, so he was left in the hotel...... You must know that the black realm is comparable to Lu Tao's fifth layer of qi refining, and Lu Tao is very skeptical that he is just because he doesn't want to go out.

After walking for about an hour, the two finally arrived at the foot of the rather high peak, and along the non-existent uphill path, Lu Tao and Mo Lan climbed halfway up the mountain together.

"Ah...... My shoes ......"

Mo Lan climbed halfway and stopped, Lu Tao looked over, and Mo Lan's pair of sandals that Tang Xin bought for her were broken, and it seemed that she couldn't wear them.

Taking off the sandals on both feet and holding them in her hands, Mo Lan said with some frustration: "This is the sandals that Sister Tang Xin bought for me...... It's a pity that it's broken. ”

Lu Tao shook his head, he should have thought of it a long time ago, climbing the mountain in sandals, the final result must be like this, but before leaving, Lu Tao didn't notice what Mo Lan was wearing. Mo Lan seemed to be really frustrated because of the broken sandals, so Lu Tao comforted Mo Lan and said, "It's okay, I'll buy you another pair of the same one when I go back." ”

"Hmm!" Listening to Lu Tao's words, Mo Lan nodded heavily, but he was still unwilling to put down the sandals that he could no longer wear.

Hawkers, whatever, anyway, even if Mo Lan is barefoot, she doesn't have to worry about being pricked by sharp branches that suddenly appear on the ground, which Lu Tao confirmed.

After walking for a while, a dark hole appeared in front of him, the size of which could only be passed by one person.

Mo Lan was about to drill into the cave entrance, Lu Tao reached out and grabbed her arm: "Are you sure it's here.....?"

This is not Lu Tao's imagination, but from the deep and dark hole, there are indeed bursts of cold wind coming out, which is quite uncomfortable.

"Well, this is it, landlord, let's go in!" Mo Lan didn't seem to feel anything at all, and Lu Tao was relieved after thinking about it.

Maybe the coldness emanating from the entrance of the cave is related to Mo Lan's body, don't forget that Mo Lan's body is a big snake, so her mother may be a bigger snake.

In this way, the only thing that made Lu Tao a little confused was Mo Lan's father...... That's really a fierce man, I hope he doesn't have the surname Xu.

“...... Okay, let's go inside. Lu Tao nodded and agreed, so Mo Lan took the lead in getting into the dark hole.

......

Except for some places where you have to turn sideways to pass, the inside of the cave is not too crowded, Lu Tao touched the stone wall above his head with his hand, except for the cold and awkward hands, there is nothing special.

Of course, judging from the roughness of the surface and the lack of carved traces, this is by no means excavated by humans or other intelligent life.

For today's action, Lu Tao specially bought two flashlights and a bunch of batteries from nearby, and the mobile phone is still being repaired.

The range illuminated by the flashlight was limited, and the deep darkness farther away still carried an unsettling silence.

"Landlord, I'm very happy that you're willing to come with me!" Mo Lan's voice echoed in the cave, stretched out a lot by the echo, and seemed a little ethereal.

"It's nothing, I was originally coming to Luojing. ”

"No...... Actually, I'm a little nervous about seeing my mother soon......" Mo Lan's voice fell, and then she shook her head vigorously: "I don't know what kind of person my mother is, I have seen a lot of mothers on TV, but I still can't reconcile them with the mother I remember." ”

"Have you seen your mother?" Lu Tao was stunned, when Mo Lan told about his life experience before, there didn't seem to be this paragraph?

"Hmm...... Although I only have vague memories, I have seen her, and my mother seems to have been strict since I was born, I remember...... She never smiled, and she never complimented me, whether I learned to walk or was able to eat on my own......"

"What about Mo Lan, your father? Have you seen it?" Mo Lan's impression of her mother was actually strict, and Lu Tao was even more curious about her father.

"No...... I never saw my father, and I was always the only mother by my side, and then after a while...... Mother is gone...... too."

Lu Tao thought about it, that is to say, in fact, the body of the black snake is Mo Lan's father, and Lu Tao had always preconceived that Mo Lan's mother was the black snake, but now it doesn't seem to be like that. But...... If this is the case, why would Mo Lan want to burrow into this cold cave? She had clearly said that she was guided by her mother in her dream, and Lu Tao was puzzled by this doubt.

However, now is not the time to think about this, Lu Tao comforted Mo Lan and said: "Don't be depressed, haven't we already arrived at our destination? Soon you will be able to see your mother again!"

Although he said this, Lu Tao still had a spirit of twelve points, and he always felt that something was wrong here.

The cave continued to move forward, and for the next period of time, only Lu Tao's footsteps echoed in the cave, and nothing else.

And the cold feeling is even stronger.

After walking for a while, Lu Tao and Mo Lan stopped, and a fork in the road appeared in front of them, and two black holes, one on the left and one on the right, stood there, each of which seemed to have bad intentions.

“...... Which way?" Lu Tao asked Mo Lan.

Mo Lan looked back and forth several times at the two holes that appeared in front of him, and hesitated: "...... I don't know, but I feel the same attraction coming from these two holes, maybe these two holes end up leading to a place?"

Lu Tao didn't think that this fork in the road was so simple, he shook his head, and took out the spirit talisman given to him by Wuweizi from his arms: "Let me try it with this and predict the good luck." ”

Taking a step forward, Lu Tao stood in the hole on the left, and then carefully looked at the spirit rune in his hand.

The spirit runes are mediocre, but Lu Tao absolutely believes in Wu Weizi's predecessors, saying that these spirit runes can predict good luck and evil, it will definitely be able to predict, according to the use method that Wu Weizi said before, Lu Tao injected his spiritual power into the spirit rune.

With a "boom", the yellow rune paper suddenly burned, and Lu Tao looked at the color of the flame, a little confused.

Red is auspicious, green is fierce, what does black flame mean?

A black flame burned on the rune paper, and even if Lu Tao let go of his hand, the black flame still floated in mid-air, and it was not extinguished until the entire rune paper was completely burned out.

Lu Tao: "......"

After a moment of silence, Lu Tao pointed to the hole on the right: "You should go over there!"

Although it was an inexplicable black flame, Lu Tao judged according to common sense that the hole on the left should not be a good omen, and the black was unlucky no matter how you looked at it, so the natural choice could only be the hole on the right.

Mo Lan didn't care, after she heard Lu Tao's words, she just said "oh", and then continued to walk into the cave on the right without hesitation at all.

...... In fact, Lu Tao wanted to choose the path behind him, and the black flame just now made Lu Tao very uneasy.
