Spend the night smoothly.

Early the next morning, Song Jian climbed out of the tent and found the old Taoist priest standing on the edge of the mountain stream, looking at the blood forbidden area and forest opposite.

Song Jian stretched his waist, then turned his head to look at the place where the poisonous insects had gathered last night, only to see a layer of white smoke shrouded over there. Song Jian was a little strange, those smokes seemed to have a poisonous surname.

"That's the scene after the battle of poisonous insects," Kong Qixiao walked out of the tent and saw Song Jian looking over there, so he explained, "The poisonous insects have a strong sense of territory and prevention, and if there are a large number of them, it is easy to have a big war, and their venom can corrupt flesh and even stones, and this smoke will rise." ”

Song Jian let out an "oh".

After a simple breakfast, Song Jian and the five of them separated from the old madman.

"We'll be back in about seven days, and I'll let you know with fireworks," Kong Qixiao confessed to the old madman.

After separating, Song Jian and the five people continued to walk forward, and after walking for more than a thousand meters, they came to a place with protruding stones, the width of the mountain stream in this place narrowed, and there was just a stone protruding forward, and vines and other plants were entwined on the stone.

"This is it," Kong Qixiao pointed to the long stone block in front of him, "the five of us, one by one, this stone has been erected for too long, it has been weathered, if it weren't for the vines wrapped around it, it would have fallen down the cliff by now, so everyone be careful, and be steady when walking." ”

The old Taoist priest looked at it and said, "You can go first," and as he spoke, the old Taoist priest pointed at Song Jian.

Song Jian didn't express any opinion, carried his backpack, and walked up.

This mountain stream is not too high, about seventy meters, there are a lot of vines and trees below, even if it falls, as long as it is not hit by falling rocks, with Song Jian's skills, grab those vines and trees, and fall into the river, it will not die, it is just a big deal to suffer some injuries.

Song Jian quietly moved a few steps on the stone, although the stone was a little shaky, but it was still strong, Song Jian breathed a sigh of relief, and then strode towards the end of the stone.

This stone is more than 40 meters long, maybe it is not a stone anymore, it should be a stone bridge that was broken a long time ago.

Song Jian walked step by step, and when he was about to reach the end of the stone, Song Jian's heart throbbed, and he felt a sense of danger.

The pace was even slower, Song Jian trusted his dangerous instinct very much, he walked slowly, while carefully searching for possible hidden dangers, and sure enough, among the vines at the end of the long stone, there was a colorful poisonous snake more than three meters long.

Song Jian swallowed, he looked back, and saw Kong Qixiao and the three Taoist priests on the shore all looking at him.

After thinking about it, Song Jian made a bold decision in his heart, he strode over, but he didn't find the poisonous snake, and just at the end of it, the colorful poisonous snake in the vine "brushed" out and bit Song Jian's calf knee.

In this lightning and flint, Song Jian had turned a dagger downwards and erected it on his calf, and the poisonous snake opened its big mouth, but it "clicked" and bit on the dagger.

Song Jian: "Ah! He screamed, then shook his hand away, shook the snake away, and then sat on the ground with his legs in his hands.

"It's a five-step snake!" Kong Qixiao on the shore was startled, he carried his bag on his back, and ran towards Song Jian.

The old Taoist priest was also taken aback, of course he had heard of the poisonous surname of the five-step snake, and now seeing that Kong Qixiao was about to run over, the old Taoist priest grabbed him and said, "Mr. Kong, be careful, this stone bridge is too fragile." ”

"I don't care so much, I have snake medicine on my body, and Song Jian will die if it's too late," he said, Kong Qixiao ran towards Song Jian at the end of the stone.

The two of them stood on it, the raised stone was really swaying, and the fat Taoist priest by the mountain stream had a white face, and he looked at the old Taoist priest with expectation, "Master...... Master, is there really only one way? ”

The old Taoist priest glanced at his fat apprentice, nodded and said, "Don't worry, Qingsong, this stone bridge just doesn't look solid, and it can definitely withstand your weight." ”

At this time, Kong Qixiao had already run to Song Jian's side, and Song Jian's leg was bleeding some blood, which was deliberately self-inflicted by Song Jian.

"It's okay, release the poison quickly," Kong Qixiao said nervously, scrambling to dig out the snake medicine.

Song Jian didn't say anything, smeared the snake medicine, tied the bandages, and then quietly threw the internal snake medicine given by Kong Qixiao to the bottom of the mountain stream.

Standing up, Song Jian said: "It doesn't matter, Uncle Kong, as soon as that snake bites me, I will cut the flesh and blood, don't worry." ”

After speaking, Song Jian looked ahead, the end of this stone was more than seven or eight meters away from the opposite bank, but there was a vine on it, and then the power of the vine, ordinary people could easily swing to the opposite side.

Song Jian didn't say anything, grabbed the vines, and swung over.

Kong Qixiao saw that Song Jian's face was as normal as an ordinary person, and there was no sign of poisoning, so he also breathed a sigh of relief, and then followed Song Jian over.

The old Taoist priest was relieved when he saw that Song Jian was bitten by a poisonous snake, he always felt that there was something wrong with Song Jian, but seeing that Song Jian couldn't even dodge the attack of a poisonous snake, he didn't want to work hard.

Seeing that Song Jian and Kong Qixiao had already arrived on the opposite side, the old Taoist priest waved his hand and let the fat Taoist pass first.

The kung fu of these three Taoist priests was very good, and after a while, all three of them had passed through the feldspar and came to Song Jian's side.

Song Jian was standing on the shore, feeling the atmosphere of this blood forbidden area, a rancid mist with a fishy smell seemed to envelop the entire blood forbidden area.

After the three Taoist priests landed, Kong Qixiao did not set off immediately with a few people, he squatted down, took out a map from his arms, and said, "Look, we are in this position now." ”

As he spoke, Kong Qixiao's finger drew on the edge of the map, and then his finger pointed to the northwest side, and said: "Our destination is here, so our itinerary is to first walk along this mountain stream for a day to reach this location, and then from here vertically to the west, we can shuttle through the mountains and forests in the shortest distance and reach the destination." This place is no bigger than the other side of the mountain stream, and you can be attacked by poisonous snakes, poisonous frogs, and even powerful gorillas at any time, so follow me and be careful. In the afternoon and evening, the miasma can be very strong, so when you feel that you have difficulty breathing, you should take this crisp camellia leaf. ”

Kong Qixiao gave a few pieces of tea to Song Jian and the four of them.

Song Jian put away the crisp camellia, he had the plague avoidance pill on his body, so he was naturally not afraid of miasma, but the atmosphere of this blood forbidden area was really a little weird.

Looking down at the map again, Song Jian secretly compared it with the Huolin Flower map drawn by the doctor, and soon Song Jian found that in fact, the destinations of the three Taoist priests were not much different from his own destinations.

"The three of them can't be here for the fire linhua, right?" Song Jian was taken aback by this thought, he then looked at the three old Taoist priests, and saw that the three of them were not carrying anything like an alchemy furnace, and his heart was a little relieved. Generally speaking, if you pick the fire linhua, you must refine it on the spot. Huolinhua's fire yang qi is too strong to be taken directly, and if you take it directly, it will explode and die, so you have to match it with the medicine of the Yin and Han surnames to restrain its fiery surname.

A few people, led by Kong Qixiao, walked along the mountain stream, because of the proximity to the mountain stream, the situation was not very bad, and in the afternoon, a thin layer of pink mist began to rise in the blood exclusion zone.

Kong Qixiao looked at the sun, then pointed to the distance, and said, "Let's camp there tonight." ”

When he arrived at the place, Song Jian looked at the surrounding environment, the miasma here was relatively thin and could withstand it.

After taking out the anti-plague pill, taking one, and setting up the tent, Kong Qixiao took out the map again and said, "Tomorrow we will go straight to the forest quickly, and strive to reach our destination within one day." There are two most dangerous places in this forest, one is that the road is easy to mix, because after entering, you can't see the sun, you can't tell the direction, and the compass is also out of order because of the magnetite ore here, so you have to be careful to identify the direction. The second is the mud swamp on the ground, if you are not careful, you will fall into it, and there are many highly poisonous toads and reptiles living in the swamp, so everyone must be careful. More than 3,000 people died here, and most of them were trapped in the swamp, except for some who were killed by the miasma and attacked by wild beasts. ”

Kong Qi seriously explained the precautions of the blood forbidden area, and it was not until the sun set that he stopped and said: "We need someone to guard tonight, there are five of us, each of us will be guarded for two hours, everyone be careful." Don't eat meat, especially chicken, don't light a fire, don't make a loud noise, and keep a low profile in everything. ”

Lao Dao looked at Kong Qixiao and Song Jian, and said, "The three of us just keep vigil, you two can rest peacefully." ”

When Song Jian heard this, he knew that the old Taoist priest had regarded himself as an ordinary martial artist who had only practiced martial arts for a few years, so he naturally had no excuse, got into the tent, and slept peacefully.

As the night rose, from time to time there was a sharp and strange cry in the mountains and forests of the Blood Forbidden Zone, which was very sharp and short, as if it could pierce the clouds and pierce the eardrums.

Song Jian opened his eyes, then closed them again.

In the tent, Kong Qixiao cowered, and the cry reminded him of decades ago, when it was here that a large number of his companions who had fled in had lost their lives, more than 3,000 people, and only three of them had escaped alive, two of whom were him and his father.

A tear fell, Kong Qixiao stretched out his hand and wiped it, he sighed, closed his eyes, and no longer thought about the dusty past.

The sound of insects and birds faded away, and the world seemed silent, but this silence was even more frightening.

Song Jian opened his eyes suddenly, he didn't come out of the tent, but listened attentively, he knew that something was coming.

Outside the tent, the old Taoist sat lightly on a rock, he looked at the mountains and forests, and then turned his head and looked at Song Jian's tent.

There was no movement in Song Jian's tent, as if he had been sleeping halfway through.

The old Taoist priest retracted his gaze, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face, "It seems that I am too careful, maybe he can find the poisonous insect in advance, just because of a coincidence." ”

There was a "bang" between the trees.

Song Jian pretended to sit up and poked his head out of the tent.

The old Taoist priest laughed in a low voice: "Rest easy, it's just a beast." As he spoke, the old Taoist priest stood upright, holding the dust in his hand, and looked at the forest.

The trees parted in the mountains and forests, and a two-and-a-half-meter-tall hairy wild man walked out, perhaps he was not a wild man, maybe an orangutan or other species, but he did walk upright.

The wild man stood in the woods, looking at the old Taoist priest and a few tents.

The old Taoist priest waved the dust.

The wild man seemed to be thinking, and then he turned around sharply and quickly left, it seemed that he had also discovered the extraordinaryness of the old Taoist.
