Chapter 9: The Old Bridge

After Wei Ming accepted Mu Qing, the demon hunting group composed of six people immediately set off, through the bustling crowd, over the streets, the bustling city gradually moved away from them, the buildings gradually became shorter and lower, and became sparse, after ten hours of travel, they were also about to walk out of Xiluo City, the scorching sun was shining, Mu Qing wiped his sweat, and took out a water bag to drink water from time to time, Mu Qing fell at the end, Fan Lei glanced back at him, smiled at Mu Qing, and mocked, "This is not to the land of the beast forest, can you?"

Mu Qing smiled bitterly, he was in the Gathering Spirit Realm, and the gap with others was still a bit big, and the gap was seen along the way, fortunately Mu Qing didn't have much weight, only the dry food he carried, and the others had more weight-bearing weapons, especially Fan Lei, a huge gray axe on his shoulder.

When the time came to the afternoon, the color of the sun changed from yellow to blood red, Mu Qing looked back at the Luoxi City under the sunset, and a beautiful picture unfolded in his eyes, as if this city had become a maple leaf, floating on the red sea, the most conspicuous of which was the mountain behind the Mu family, the highest place in the whole city, the mountain was proud of the world, backed by the land of the beast forest, and the thick aura was filled in it.

However, Mu Qing was not in the mood to enjoy these beautiful scenery, his eyes searched for the Wind and Snow Bridge in the vast city, but he couldn't find it, the Wind and Snow Bridge was completely submerged in the city.

"What a daze, keep up. ”

The Mu family's back to the land of the beast forest was the entrance to the land of the beast forest, but Mu Qing and they didn't go there, what they wanted to go to was a ruined ancient bridge, which hung high above the abyss of Wanchuan.

Mu Qing quickened his pace and kept up with the team, Mu Qing looked around, and he saw that this place was already very barren, as long as those dwarf weeds, and the Gobi.

In front of them, there stands a tall building, look carefully like a post station, it is backed by this Gobi, on which a few figures vaguely appear, and then go forward, only to see a tablet standing on the side of the weeds, on which are written three big characters "into the grave".

The words are profound, the pen is elegant, it seems to be written in one stroke, everyone looks at these three words, and can't help but sigh at the person who engraved the letter, feel it carefully, and you can also feel the spiritual power emanating from it.

Wei Ming said: "This seems to be engraved by a certain master, with powerful spiritual power control and profound swordsmanship. ”

Although Wei Ming was the head of the regiment, he had never been here, he ventured to the beast grave for his younger brother to pay for the tuition of the Xuan Academy, and it was only a month before the start of school, and the time was very tight, so he could only take the risk.

Wei Ming led the team into the desolate stone building, and when he entered it, Wei Ming shouted, calling out the soldiers here.

I saw a middle-aged man holding a wine jug in his hand, staggering out, and he sat on the stool with difficulty.

Looking at everyone with drunken eyes, the eyes were full of ridicule, and he smiled: "Again...... Some are sent to death. ”

He held his hand on the table and shouted, "The forest tax is one gold coin per person." ”

Mu Qing looked at this drunken and dazed martial artist vigilantly, to Mu Qing's surprise, this person's cultivation seemed to have reached the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and he unabashedly bloomed all his spiritual power to suppress Mu Qing and these people.

When he first came here, everyone tensed every wisp of divine sense, only one person sat in the corner of the building indifferently, Mu Qing saw him casually, he had short hair, a notched knife on his back, and there was no expression on his face, as if he didn't care about everything in the world.

After Wei Ming handed over the money to the soldier, he continued to move forward with the team, holding a map in his hand, and headed towards the ancient bridge.

The soldier who collected the money carried the wine jug, stood up and shouted to the crowd: "A group of mentally retarded, if there was a treasure there, I would not have come to the soldiers." ”

Mu Qing heard this, the mocking needle pierced his heart, he also doubted whether the beast tomb really had treasure, but he had no choice.

At this time, the night gradually fell, the temperature became much cooler, less than half a mile away, they came to the edge of the cliff, Mu Qing squinted his eyes and looked down, it was pitch black, bottomless, inexplicably depressed filled everyone's minds.

Wei Ming grabbed the iron chain on the bridge, shook it a few times, and made sure it was firm, and the dull voice sounded slightly, this ancient bridge was composed of seven huge iron chains, and the other side of the bridge was connected to another cliff in the canyon, Mu Qing swallowed his saliva cryingly, and the cliff over there was a pitch-black hole, like a gluttonous mouth, greedily devouring people who had desires for the beast grave.

Wei Ming took a deep breath and said, "Let's go......"

He was the first to grasp the chain and carefully climbed the rock, and the others followed him.

Mu Qing mustered up his courage and helped him out, stepping on the iron chain, Mu Qing's legs instantly weakened, as if there were snakes rolling back and forth on the soles of his feet, Mu Qing and the other four didn't dare to look down, only the man with the big knife on his back looked down.

Everyone moved little by little on the shaking bridge, and everyone was extremely cautious, otherwise the abyss below would be their graveyard.

Chirp~chirp~

A few piercing eagle sounds echoed faintly above the canyon, and Mu Qing looked up cautiously and saw four big eagles suspended above everyone's heads.

Suddenly, these giant eagles swooped down towards everyone, one of them was aimed at Mu Qing, Mu Qing screamed, everyone looked back at Mu Qing, and then noticed the giant eagle rushing down towards them.

The giant eagle rushed down at great speed, Mu Qing saw that the giant eagle was the size of an adult, everyone held the iron chain in one hand, and took out their weapons to fight with the other, and the sharp and sharp eagle claws also collided with weapons, and they actually emitted firelight, and the ancient bridge shook more intensely.

An eagle claw scratched Mu Qing's arm, tore his clothes, and penetrated the flesh, it can be said that the flesh on Mu Qing's body was stripped alive.

The pain stimulated Mu Qing's consciousness, he endured the pain, his hands were still tightly clasped on the chain, no one jumped off this time for the attack, and after the giant eagle dived and attacked once, it flew away again, flying around everyone.

Wei Ming held his sword in his hand and shouted, "Quick! Speed up and cross the bridge, these animals want to consume our net." ”

Anyway, Wei Ming increased the speed of climbing, they were now in the middle of the ancient bridge, and if they wanted to successfully reach the opposite side, at their speed, it would take at least half an hour.

The giant eagles launched a second attack, this time avoiding Wei Ming and the man with the big sword, and concentrated on attacking the remaining four people who were weaker in cultivation, while Mu Qing became an important target for the attack.

"Beast, get out of here!" Mu Qing waved his broken sword and struggled, but every attack was dodged by the giant eagle, but instead consumed a lot of his spiritual power, and Mu Qing, who was exhausted, looked at these giant eagles angrily.

Suddenly, a giant eagle took advantage of Mu Qing's inattention and grabbed straight towards the back of Mu Qing's head.
