The moon is in the sky. Under the reflection of the moonlight, a group of fully armed strong men were hurrying towards the depths of Fengkun Mountain. Because the road in the mountains is rugged and difficult to walk, it is almost impossible to ride a horse and sit in a sedan chair, let alone at night, so I decided to walk without making too much noise. Avoid waking up "things" that shouldn't be disturbed.

At the back of the line, about a dozen paces away, two teenagers were secretly following, not only afraid of being discovered, but also afraid of being lost.

Xu Lao's previous words fell on everyone's heads like a thunderbolt from the sky. Although Xu Lao didn't explain the reason, everyone guessed that it was not far from ten.

From the guard's quick horse report before, to the "Miss Qing'er" who wanted to say something, and then to the night attack on Kunshan. These clues are strung together, and there is only one explanation, that is, Shen Qing'er's illness has worsened, so heavy that she can't even wait for a day......

"Oh I said, Yuntian, you... You slow down......" Zixiu said breathlessly as he leaned on the tree behind him.

"Can you do it, you've just walked so far, you're tired like this......" Yun Tian lowered his voice and said to Zi Xiu, who was gasping for breath behind him.

After all, Zixiu is a rich young master, although he often goes hunting and playing in the mountains with his father, but his physique cannot be compared with well-trained guards and mercenaries who lick blood from the knife all year round. Yuntian is relatively better, after all, he grew up in the mountains since he was a child, and his physique is relatively better.

"Hold on, we must not be left behind, in the middle of the night, if we get lost in this barren mountains and mountains infested with spirit beasts...... I don't know who ate it," Yun Tian urged.

Zixiu shook his head helplessly, took a few big breaths of air greedily, and began to walk forward. After walking for about an hour, the surroundings began to gradually darken, and the forest became denser and denser, and the moonlight was almost obscured by the dense foliage.

The speed of the team was also much slower than before, and since torches could not be lit, everyone was assigned a few thumb-sized fluorescent stones to tie around their waists before leaving. This was bought by the Shen Mansion from the mercenaries in advance. Fluorescent stone emits a faint fluorescence of light purple, and the purpose of this is twofold, one is that lighting a torch in this deep mountain and old forest is easy to attract the attention of wild beasts, especially in the deep mountains where there are often strange beasts and even ancient spirit beasts. Many exotic beasts are not afraid of fire at all. Another reason is that it can scare off some low-level beasts, a person's fluorescent stone is nothing, if there is fluorescent stone on a row of people, then the effect will be different.

Yun Tian and the two of them followed closer, and they were more careful. Now you can count that you can't see your fingers, and the only sign is the row in front of you that moves like a giant purple snake.

From time to time, there would be a roar of an unknown kind of beast, but there was hardly any sound other than that. After about another stick of incense, the procession suddenly stopped.

"The front should be the depths of Fengkun Mountain, pass the word, walk closely, don't make any sound" Shen Feng, who was walking in the front, whispered to the guards on the side. The guards then began to move closer to each other and walked forward more cautiously. Not even the atmosphere dared to breathe.

Each guard cheered up, clenched the weapons in their hands, did not dare to be negligent in the slightest, and maintained a state of resisting the incoming enemy at any time. Originally, the plan was to enter the mountain during the day, but who expected a sudden change and entered the mountain late at night, which was a big challenge for the guards and even the battle-hardened mercenaries. In the vast dark night, no one knows what will pop up in this dark night, except for the darkness around, it is darkness, and a sense of fear from the depths of the bone marrow spreads throughout the body......

"Zixiu, you said that these people can't see their fingers, and they don't light a torch, do they know the way? Since he had just entered this deep mountain, when the moonlight disappeared, Yuntian and the two began to walk hand in hand. In this dark deep mountain, there is no light, even if the people next to you are lost, they don't necessarily know. In the daytime, these two are definitely a beautiful "landscape". But in the dark mountains, this is also a good way to prevent getting lost.

"This shouldn't be, I saw it in the Alien Beast Record earlier, this Kong Ling is second only to the Cold Flame Phoenix Flying Beast, in order to show off its status and more importantly, to protect its eggs, its nest is usually built on the top of the peak" Zi Xiu said slowly.

After a short conversation, the two fell into silence again, if it weren't for grabbing each other's hands and the faint purple fluorescence in front of them, there would really be an illusion of an original deep mountain.

I don't know how long I walked forward, but suddenly a moonlight shone down through the gap in the branches, and as I walked forward, one beam after another shone down, although it was not very bright, at least it was much stronger than just now. Gradually, the branches and buds above the head began to become more and more scarce, and finally the whole moon appeared in front of everyone's eyes. It was even bigger and brighter than the moon before entering the mountain.

Yun Tian and the others consciously distanced themselves from the troops again, because they could already clearly see the human form in front of them. If you were so close, it would be easy to spot.

"The appearance of moonlight proves that we have entered the territory of the spirit bird, and it should not be far from Kong Ling" Zi Xiu took a deep breath and whispered. Anyway, the journey that just now ended with no fingers, and the two of them also let go of their hearts that had been hanging, after all, it is always good to be able to see the light. Even if there is danger, it is visible. Unlike just now, I have been holding a string in my heart, for fear that a beast will suddenly run out of this dark night and take it away.

"Actually, the most dangerous part of entering the mountain this time is not Kong Ling, but on this road to find Kong Ling's hole" A skinny middle-aged man in front of the team said lightly, and it can be seen from the tone that the person who has never spoken was also very nervous before, but the night covered everything and did not find anything unusual before.

"Oh, how do you talk about it?" asked Xu Lao next to him, who was also a little puzzled.

The person who spoke just now was the mercenary boss invited by the Shen Mansion with a lot of money, known as the cold face Xiucai. is a very famous figure in this area, there are about 500 people under his hands, because he is too thin, not smiling, and born with a weak appearance, so he is called a cold-faced showman. No one knows his real name, and the combat effectiveness of the mercenaries under him is the strongest in this area, and it is precisely because of this that the Shen Mansion spent a lot of money to invite him to come and go through this experience.

"This Fengkun Mountain stretches for thousands of miles, and it has been recorded in ancient times, and there are often strange beasts in the depths of Fengkun Mountain, and even ancient beasts have appeared. So along the way, we didn't encounter any danger, and we were lucky," said the cold-faced Xiucai who seemed to be a little puzzled.

As soon as the words fell, a huge black shadow slowly passed over everyone's heads. Gliding generally flies into the distance. Everyone hurriedly looked up, only to see a huge bird spread its wings, completely blocking the moonlight and flying through the sky. The giant bird is bigger than people imagine, and it is nearly ten zhang long after spreading its wings.

"It's the black-headed eagle," the boss said in a flat tone.

"Don't worry, this giant eagle is not very aggressive, as long as you don't take the initiative to attack it, it will generally not harm humans," the Grand Master continued.

"Let's hurry up, Kong Ling's acupoint shouldn't be far away" The guards straightened up with palpitations, and unconsciously tightened each other's feet, and walked forward at a faster pace.

Yun Tian and the others were already so shocked that they didn't dare to move at all, and they didn't even dare to breathe. His eyes were staring straight at the place where the giant eagle had disappeared. "Yunyuntian...... Do you see it," Zixiu said with a trembling voice. His gaze was still in the direction where the giant eagle had disappeared just now. Although Zi Xiu had heard of the black-headed giant eagle a long time ago, he had not seen it with his own eyes, and this sudden scene was really shocking.

"What do you say, I'm not blind" Yun Tian was also surprised by the scene just now, and was a little overwhelmed. Before leaving the village, these were things that I didn't even dare to think about. It's only been less than two days since I left, and it's like entering another world, full of "surprises".

"Alright, alright, let's go, or I'll ......" Yun Tian took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. But before he finished speaking, he was shocked by the scene in front of him and couldn't spit out a word. His cheeks seemed to be petrified, and there was no expression, and a feeling of almost despair welled up from the bottom of his heart.

"What about people......" I don't know how long it took, Yun Tiancai squeezed two words out of his throat. Looking at the clouds in the sky, there was nothing in front of me except trees and trees, and most importantly, there was no one. The Shen Mansion guards and mercenaries seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, more like they didn't come at all. Then came a deathly silence. There was no sound around, and although there was no movement around him, Yuntian felt as if there were countless eyes staring at him, and the sense of fear surrounded him like this endless night.

"What about the people, where have the people gone" Zi Xiu stood up suddenly, looking at Yun Tian in a panicked tone.

"Don't panic, they should have rushed forward when the two of us were distracted just now, anyway, there is a road ahead, let's go faster and we will definitely catch up" Yuntian's brain was running rapidly, if he panicked at this time, he really couldn't get out again.

"Go," Yun Tian said softly, but his slightly trembling voice betrayed him. As if encouraging each other, Yun Tian patted Zixiu on the shoulder. By the moonlight, the two walked forward quickly, and when they left, Yun Tian still couldn't help but look around, always having a feeling of being watched by something.

It's said to be walking briskly, but in fact, it's trotting, and the pace is getting faster and faster, and that feeling is as if something is really chasing behind you. Zixiu also glanced back from time to time. It's like making sure nothing really catches up.

"Stop" The two of them walked for about half a pillar of incense, and Yun Tian suddenly stretched out his hand to block Zixiu who was trotting like running for his life.

"What's wrong?" Zixiu was nervous by Yun Tian's action.

"Fork in the road," Yun Tian said with a frown in a tone of disbelief. Zixiu looked along the line of sight of Yuntian, and sure enough, there was a fork in the road in front of him, and a small road turned into two, leading to two different directions.

Which way to go, Yun Tian and the others fell into deep thought, and it is no exaggeration to say that this is a choice that determines life and death......
