Bai Yang had thought that Xu Daoren's martial arts were low, and he was afraid that he would be held back if he followed him into the mountain.

As a result, before he could put forward this proposal, Master Qiu had already arranged for Xu Daoren to wait for news in Meixian County.

After that, a group of thirteen people entered the mountain together, naturally relying on walking, and walking relatively slowly.

But Bai Yang found that Qiu Zhangmen and the others did not hesitate.

Considering that Master Qiu once said that their mountain-opening faction once regarded the immortals in the fairy cave as one of the five alchemists, Bai Yang estimated that the mountain openers had entered the mountain from here more than once before, intending to find the Caolian Peak Immortal Cave that was clearly recorded in the "Immortal Cave Travels".

It's a pity that there is no map, so I have entered the mountain many times in vain.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, they were about to enter the primeval pine forest, and Qiu Zhangmen and others familiarly found a poor mountain family living alone in the deep mountains.

It was obvious that as soon as the mountain people saw Master Qiu and the others, they greeted the family with a smile on their faces.

The people in the mountains had a hard time, and the family was all dressed in tatters.

And when the head of Qiu and the others handed over some biscuits and oil and salt seasonings to the family, they were even more grateful to the family.

Later, Bai Yang knew that Qiu Zhangmen and others had indeed entered the mountain many times, and every time they would pass by this mountain people's house, it was a pity that this mountain people's family had never heard of "Caolian Peak" and "Immortal Cave", so naturally they could not help Qiu Zhangmen and others lead the way.

But this time Master Qiu had a map in his hand, and Bai Yang heard him say a few place names to ask the family, but the rest of the family didn't react, but the male owner of his family shook his head in horror.

Poplar and the others immediately knew that the man knew these place names.

So Master Qiu immediately asked where these place names were, and if he could ask this man to help lead the way.

The man shook his head again and again, and said, "You can't go to that place, and I don't dare to lead you to kill me, and I really haven't been there myself, but I've heard the older generation mention it!"

"Why can't you go to this place?" asked Master Qiu.

The man muttered for a long time before he lowered his voice and said, "There is a Rakshasa Valley in that place, and there are many Rakshasa ghosts gathered in it, and I heard that as long as someone walks towards it, they will be caught and eaten by the Rakshasa ghosts immediately......!" Don't say I've never been there, and even if I did, I wouldn't dare to lead the way for you!"

Bai Yang and the others were standing next to them at that time, and when they heard the man say this, everyone felt extremely excited.

Because in the eyes of Bai Yang and others, the so-called "Rakshasa Ghost" is just a terrifying rumor deliberately spread by someone who wants to cover up the secret of the fairy cave.

Of course, this kind of terrifying rumor cannot be completely fabricated out of thin air, and there must still be some mountain people who disappeared or were killed near the fairy cave, which made the mountain people believe in the legend of the Rakshasa ghost.

The head of Qiu said evilly, but the mountain people resolutely refused to lead the way. Master Qiu could only ask the mountain man to point out a general direction, and asked what kind of mountain scenery there would be along the way.

But the mountain people have only heard people talk about the "Rakshasa Valley", and they really haven't actually been there, only saying that they can reach it by walking straight to the southwest.

Master Qiu was helpless, seeing that it was still early, so he said goodbye to the mountain people and continued to hurry, but let his disciple surnamed Tang stay at the mountain people's house, responsible for answering and delivering the news.

That made Bai Yang, Xiang Aiguo and the others very puzzled, and they didn't understand how these mountain pioneers could pass the news to each other once they entered the primeval forest, could they use carrier pigeons?

However, knowing that this must be an untold secret in the other family's faction, Bai Yang and the others just felt strange in their hearts, but they didn't ask.

After that, they entered the primeval forest and rushed forward in the southwest direction as the mountain people said.

The group was strong in martial arts and agile in action, and at about seven o'clock in the evening, they walked out of a large woods and arrived at a relatively open place.

Seeing that it was getting late, the group waited to find a leeward hillside to rest for the night.

Until the next morning, the group continued to rush forward despite obstacles.

At noon, he sat down on a round hill to rest, and Master Qiu asked Liu Daoren, a disciple of the Great Elder, and Gao Daoren, a disciple of the Third Elder, to stay on this hill, and they were also responsible for receiving and delivering news. The remaining ten continued to march deeper into the primeval forest.

As you go deeper, the terrain becomes more complex.

The trees along the road are getting taller and denser, and the huge canopy of trees covers the sky and the sun, and often you can't see a single blue sky after walking in the forest for a long time.

Master Qiu had to take out a map from time to time and compare it with the surrounding scenery.

Poplar also saw the map and found that the map was not a landscape picture recorded in the "Immortal Cave Travels", but a relatively ordinary map.

There are lines drawn on the map, as well as some traditional characters representing place names. It is estimated that this is a map redrawn by later generations according to the picture recorded in the "Immortal Cave Travels".

Poplar himself had been a ranger for a few years, but he had never been so deep in the forest, so with a map like this in his hand, at least he Poplar couldn't tell whether to go left or right.

Fortunately, Master Qiu and Zuo Protector seem to be used to drilling in the deep mountains and old forests, and the two of them discussed and discussed, but they never lost their way.

That night, we rested on a leeward hillside, and naturally lit a bonfire, and ten people sat around the bonfire, and the head of Qiu said: "Until now, we are still not sure that the direction is correct, after all, we don't know what the names of many places in this deep mountain are, and naturally we can't compare them with the names of places on the map." We can only rely on the guidance of the mountain people and our own intuition. But if we don't find a place similar to the terrain depicted on this map by tomorrow night, then we will have to return in vain!"

As soon as he said this, several mountain pioneers couldn't help but show a look of frustration. Probably they came again and again, but they came again and again and returned disappointed, and they have been beaten so hard that they can easily lose confidence.

On the contrary, Bai Yang and the other four people were still full of energy, and said to Aiguo: "Don't be so depressed, everyone, maybe wait for tomorrow to go forward for a while, and you will be able to make new discoveries?" After all, we have only been in and walked for two days, and before the Bai brothers entered the Taklamakan Desert, they walked for a whole week to find the Black Desert!"

His words did not make a few mountain pioneers immediately lift their spirits, but Zuo Protector sighed and said: "Although the desert is dangerous, but fortunately, standing on the sand mountain, you can see far away at a glance! But in this big mountain, the distance to see out is limited, it is likely that the place we are looking for is around, but it is blocked by a big mountain or a forest, we walk over with our eyes open, but we can never find it, this is the most frustrating place!"

What he said was very reasonable, even Poplar had to nod in approval, and several mountain pioneers sighed in unison.

Tie Niu suddenly opened his mouth and said: "Let's go all the way, I'm afraid that the man in black will hide behind a tree and attack us, but now I wish he could appear, then at least let us know that we are going in the right direction!"

Huang Mingliang nodded again and again when he heard this.

But Huang Mingliang himself has never seen the power of the man in black, and he is somewhat ignorant.

Several mountain pioneers looked at each other, and two of them were timid, and they couldn't help but look east and west.

At this moment, a terrible howl came into his ears.

And as soon as that one fell, several other howls rang out, one after another.

The two younger mountain pioneers stood up in surprise and said, "Is this a wolf pack barking?"

"That's good!" Poplar nodded, after all, he had been a forest ranger for several years, and he could still distinguish the cries of wild beasts very clearly, "There are quite a few wolves listening to this sound, I'm afraid we have to be very, very careful tonight!"

"What is there to be careful, with so many of us, even if there are twenty or thirty wolves, we are not afraid!" said Tie Niu.

"You listen to this cry for a long time, but it is getting louder and louder, but I am afraid that this pack of wild wolves will not be less than forty or fifty!" said Poplar.

"Forty or fifty, there won't be so many, right?" said Iron Bull.

Poplar didn't answer, just tilted his ears to listen.

The others listened along, and sure enough, the howls were not only getting louder and louder, but also joined together, as if wolves were howling in all the hills and woods to the southwest.

"How does this seem to ...... Wolves are starting to howl everywhere?" Iron Bull couldn't help but look horrified.

"If the wolves find a large prey, or if there is a large number of prey, they will often howl and attack with the other wolves!

"I also feel like I'm coming for us people!" Qiu Zhangmen said, looking at a few of his disciples, and couldn't help but feel worried.

"But we didn't see a single wolf along the way, why did the wolves come at us?" asked the youngest Li Daoren.

Master Qiu smiled bitterly and did not speak. However, Wu Daoren, the second disciple of the head of Qiu, said: "We have been walking in the mountains for so long, it is very easy for the wolves to find our traces, but they have not shown their faces in front of our eyes!"

"Then what should we do now?" Li Daoren asked again.

"I can only prepare for a big battle!" replied Iron Bull.

He was not afraid of heaven and earth, and when he heard the wolf howl getting closer and louder, he showed excitement on his face, ready to show his skills and fight at any time.
