Chapter 54: Accidentally falling into the abyss

The six men who kept vigil for two hours in each pair, and the rest of the people had no task and slept until dawn.

There were no wild beasts this night, and almost all the living creatures that could be seen during the day were birds, and although a few people were hungry for wild game, there was no water, so it was more convenient to eat wild fruits.

Wang Qing led everyone to the woods, everyone looked around, here is in all directions, how to find a water source?

Wang Qing squatted on the ground to observe the vegetation carefully, and then felt the humidity in the air, and roughly determined three directions, he and Sun Haitong discussed and decided to divide the troops into two ways, Wang Qing led a group of people to find two of them in a relatively close direction, and the other team of people was led by Sun Haitong to the third direction to find.

Wang Wan and Mu Ziyi followed Sun Haitong to find the third direction, and the rest of the people, except for a few small ones and Li Qingqiu's master and servant to watch the luggage, all went to Wang Qing's team.

At this moment, Li Qingqiu, who rarely spoke, said, "Brother Mu, I want to go with you to find it." ”

Wang Wan glanced at her in surprise, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Li Qingqiu had done the act of buying murder and kidnapping before, and let her stay with Wang Lin and a few others, Wang Wan was not at ease at all.

One more person has more strength, since Li Qingqiu asked for it himself, Sun Haitong directly agreed.

After the discussion, everyone went separately, making a mark at each place, and after walking ten miles, whether they found a water source or not, they had to go back, and then discuss after meeting.

Sun Haitong led Wang Wan and the four of them in the direction they were walking, the vegetation was dense, there were almost no roads, Mu Ziyi ran to the stone wall next to him from time to time, listening to the sound of water tinkling, and Wang Wan used his divine sense to investigate the surrounding situation from time to time.

Li Qingqiu looked at these people with a strange expression, and followed behind them with her maid Taozhi, leisurely.

Mu Ziyi accidentally discovered this scene, frowned and walked to the master and servant and said, "Miss Li, since you two can't help you two staying here, let's go back now." ”

Li Qingqiu said with an aggrieved face: "Do you dislike me, I'll go." Then he began to cry.

Mu Ziyi looked at her helplessly, turned around and looked at Wang Wan for help, Wang Wan pursed her lips and turned her head.

Sun Haitong went to the front to check the road conditions, and when he came back, he saw the situation and said, "What's the matter?"

When Li Qingqiu heard the questioning, he cried: "Senior Sun, Brother Mu wants to drive me away." ”

Mu Ziyi looked embarrassed and shook his head at Sun Haitong.

Sun Haitong was still a child making trouble, and said with a smile: "Miss Li, Mu Gongzi is joking with you, don't take it seriously." ”

After he finished speaking, he pointed to the road he had just come and said, "There is a steep slope ahead, and the rattans are densely packed on it, but you can go down with the help of these rattans, and you should be careful not to fall down, one by one." ”

Deep in the valley, in a palace made of thick foliage, sat a woman with a black veil on her face, who smiled seductively, "Tree Demon, now is the time for you to pledge your allegiance to Your Majesty, you go and capture Wang Wan back, remember that I want to live." ”

A woman with skin like tree bark said, "Aunt Yun, Your Majesty the Resentful Demon, can you really make me completely human?"

"Of course, remember that as long as you are loyal to Your Majesty, Your Majesty will not treat you badly, if you dare to betray Your Majesty, you know the end, go!" Yun Gu said gloomily through the black veil.

The tree demon was shocked and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Rest assured, the messenger, Qiu Niang will definitely complete His Majesty's order." With that, she turned into a green light and disappeared into the sky.

Yun Niang laughed sarcastically: "A little tree demon actually wants to become a human, even if it becomes like it again, a monster is a monster, hum, it's really wishful thinking!"

"Miss Wan, can I take me with me? Taozhi said pitifully to Wang Wan.

Wang Wan doesn't have much disgust with Li Qingqiu's maid, in her opinion, the maid is also a human being, and Li Qingqiu usually always gives Taozhi a look, which is also pitiful.

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll take you by the hand, let's go down together. ”

Momozhi lowered her head and whispered thank you.

Sun Haitong opened the road in front, there was no road on the steep slope at all, all the vines were intertwined and covered on the surface, everyone stepped on the thick vines, turned over and faced the steep slope, and slowly climbed down.

If it's just a steep slope, it's easier to walk, or if there are fewer vines, you can find a vine that goes down vertically, and it's safer. But here, the vines on the surface are thick, and they can't step on the surface at all, and the branches and leaves are easy to slip and hook their feet, which brings great inconvenience to their crawling.

Wang Wan pulled the peach branch and climbed at the end, one of the peach branches' feet was hanging in the air, not touching the ground at all, but Wang Wan almost dragged her down.

Suddenly, Wang Wan sensed that something was wrong, and a rattan the thickness of an arm rolled towards her against the ground.

Wang Wan immediately wanted to dodge, but Taozhi hugged her by one arm, and she couldn't dodge at all.

The vines rolled towards her waist, and Wang Wan drew her dagger and slashed at it, shouting, "Peach Branch, you climb down!"

Taozhi cried softly: "Miss Xiaowan, don't worry about me, I can't walk with weak legs." ”

"You, alas!" Wang Wan had no choice but to cut off a vine that had rolled over, and dragged her down, Sun Haitong was originally some distance away from them, and after he found out that something was wrong, he immediately ran up quickly with light skills, and Mu Ziyi followed closely.

Li Qingqiu saw this situation and immediately shouted: "Brother Mu, don't leave me, I'm afraid!"

Mu Ziyi frowned and turned around: "You wait below, don't come up." After saying that, he turned around and rushed forward.

Li Qingqiu was left alone below, his face extremely gloomy.

Wang Wan took the peach branch, and before she could go far, Wang Wan was tied up by a vine that quietly attacked from behind, and the dagger was thrown out.

Wang Wan saw that this was not working, she used her internal force to break it, "Huh, how can this be?"

Wang Wan felt as if her internal strength was sealed, and she couldn't use it, the vines moved quickly with her, she was strangled tighter and tighter, and her head became blurred.

Sun Haitong had already caught up, and he roared: "Evil barrier, don't let her go quickly!" and then slashed over with a sword.

More vines on the ground moved, instantly weaving a barrier in the air and blocking in the middle, and Sun Haitong's subsequent sword light roared, twisting it into pieces.

This obstruction is the best time to delay the rescue, Wang Wan has been carried by vines not far from the cliff on the side of the steep slope, the vines are connected to the opposite cliff, obviously this thing wants to take Wang Wan to fly over the abyss between the cliffs.

Mu Ziyi had just bypassed Sun Haitong's position, and now he was rushing to the front, as long as he could save Wang Wan before the vines leaped into the abyss, he would still be in time.

He didn't care about being scarred by the branches on his body, he rushed forward at all costs, getting closer and closer to Wang Wan, at this moment, Li Qingqiu threw out a dagger, this dagger was Wang Wan's, sharpened iron like clay, and cut off the vine that pulled Wang Wan with a brush.

Mu Ziyi was overjoyed when he saw it, and hurriedly shouted: "Xiaowan, quickly break away from the vines!"

But Wang Wan, who was tied into a dumpling, could no longer hear his shouts at this time, she suddenly lost the strength to be pulled at the edge of the cliff, and the whole person continued to roll a few times in the original direction, and then fell into the abyss.

Mu Ziyi shouted heartbreakingly, "Xiao Wan!" He pounced on himself, but only grabbed the corner of her torn clothes.

He lay on the edge of the cliff and looked down, it was very deep below and he couldn't see the bottom at all, he hurriedly took the sword and wanted to jump down, but was pulled by Li Qingqiu.

"Brother Mu, are you crazy? You'll die if you jump!" Li Qingqiu looked at his actions just now, and his eyes were so angry that Brother Mu would even give up his life for her, did he like her so much?!

"Let go! I don't know if I will die if I jump, I only know that if I don't go down, I will die of heartache!" Mu Ziyi said with a cold face.

Li Qingqiu looked at his face in a daze, and laughed miserably: "Okay, you jump, I will jump too, without you, I won't live alone!"

"You!?" Mu Ziyi looked at Li Qingqiu's resolute expression in shock, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

"Mu Gongzi, this place is not suitable for a long time, let's hurry up and go down the steep slope, maybe Xiaowan is not dead yet!"

When Mu Ziyi heard that Wang Wan might not be dead, hope instantly rose in his heart, he brushed down Li Qingqiu's hand that grabbed his arm, and said to Li Qingqiu, "You don't have to do this for me!"

Li Qingqiu looked at his ruthless back, and her heart seemed to be torn apart, "Mu Ziyi, you are so ruthless to me!" Her tears fell in the air like rain.

Wang Wan heard the wind whistling in her ears, she seemed to be hanging in the air, she stretched out her head to look up, a big tree rooted in the cliff hooked the vines wrapped around her body, it was really lucky, otherwise with the state she had just had, she would have to fall to death inexplicably.

But her current condition is not good, she is tired, the internal force in her body can't be used, but fortunately, the spiritual power can still run, she hurriedly summoned Xiaoxue, cut off the vines on her body, and carried her down slowly.

It's already very, very close to below, Wang Wan is lying on top of the light snow and looking down, it's really strange here, there is no grass.

She flew forward with the light snow, and found that the temperature here was getting higher and higher, and then she couldn't bear the temperature, she wrapped herself with spiritual power, this time she felt much better, is there volcanic lava here? Why is it so hot?

When she flew further, she found that there was a lot of red mist floating in the air, scattered in the air one by one.

"Great, master, these are Hongxia Spiritual Fire, let's go to the front to look for it, maybe we can find Zixia Treasure Flame, this is a good thing, if the master subdues it, you can start learning alchemy refining tools in advance without using the help of earth fire." Xiaoxue happily chattered in Wang Wan's mind and flew towards the depths of the red mist with her.
