On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Xiao Ding was woken up by the sound of firecrackers on the street in the early morning. After finishing the grooming, after breakfast, it didn't take long to wait, and Song Yinzi, the king of Mu, brought someone over.

Xiao Ding carried a crossbow on his back and walked out of the inn door with a mace. He felt that it would be more dangerous to enter the mountain today, and it was better for Balati to use this mace by himself. The weight of the sword Zhou Zhizhou gave him was too light, and he didn't dare to play it too hard, for fear that he would accidentally break it.

After Xiao Ding came to the door, he found that the guards brought by Song Yinzi today were each carrying a large square shield in their hands, which was more than half a person tall. Each person also carries a water bag behind their backs, connected to a three-foot-long bamboo tube, and there is a mechanism on the bamboo tube, and after opening the mechanism, the water in the water bag can be sprayed out from the other end of the bamboo tube.

This is the equipment that Song Yinzi prepared yesterday? Xiao Ding couldn't help but feel funny after watching it. Looking at the appearance of the guards carrying water bags, it is like the peasant uncle who carried a watering can to spray pesticides on the crops in later generations.

"Brother Tian, what do you think of the equipment I prepared? These copper shields can be used together to block the flames spewed by the Red Refining Snake, and the water bags carried by the guards can be used to quickly extinguish the flames. This time, even if any of the guards are burned by the fire, they can quickly extinguish the fire and not be seriously injured! Song Yinzi said complacently.

"Not bad, Brother Song Xian really has a wonderful idea!" Xiao Ding stretched out his thumb and praised.

Song Yinzi looked at the mace that Xiao Ding was carrying, very relaxed, and exclaimed: "Brother Tian is really different from mortals!" I didn't lift this iron hammer yesterday with a lot of effort, but Brother Tian easily took it in his hand, admiring and admiring! ”

Xiao Ding followed Song Yinzi and led fifty or sixty guards, and left Zhongzhou City and came towards Funiu Mountain.

Funiu Mountain is located about 30 miles away from the southwest of Zhongzhou City. The mountains are lush and lush with vegetation. Occasionally, rocks emerge from the greenery, jagged and abrupt.

From a distance, this mountain of barberry is like a huge ploughing ox lying on the ground. The towering Niutou Peak is the head of the barberry, the continuous Lying Cow Ridge is the back of the barberry, and there are several other peaks and valleys that form the limbs and tail of the barberry.

Song Yinzi led everyone directly into a valley and headed in the direction of Niutou Peak.

Not long after entering the mountain, I saw two groups of Jianghu people fighting.

Xiao Ding knew that these Jianghu people must have come for the Red Refining Flame Fruit on Li Xingchen. But he couldn't figure out why he hadn't seen Li Xingchen yet, why did these two groups fight?

The two groups of Jianghu people, seeing Song Yinzi's team of fifty or sixty guards, walked over in a majestic manner, and they all stopped fighting and stood in place and watched curiously.

Song Yinzi did not pay attention to these people, but commanded the team to drive past them, and did not have any conflict with them.

After the two groups watched Song Yinzi's team pass, they fought again.

Xiao Ding sighed secretly, these Jianghu people don't know what they are fighting for! Is there anything more important than life?

Continuing to move forward, I met several waves of Jianghu people on the way, but when these people saw Song Yinzi's guard outfit, they knew that they were powerful people, and no one of them came forward to stir up trouble.

Usually, people on the rivers and lakes will generally try to avoid head-on conflicts with people in the imperial court.

Winding all the way up the mountain road, gradually submerged in the mountains. Haohao's team walked in the mountains and forests, just like a team of ants carrying food crawling among the grass and trees.

Xiao Ding observed the terrain here as he walked, and found that the road he was walking on happened to come up from this position on the neck of the cattle in Funiu Mountain.

The forest path may have been stepped on by the hunters and woodcutters near Zhongzhou City for many years.

Looking at Song Yinzi's appearance, it seems that he is extremely familiar with the path here, Xiao Ding guessed that this Song Gongzi might come over to hunt often.

Along the way, in addition to encountering a few waves of people in the rivers and lakes, there were no large beasts, only all kinds of small birds chirping in the mountains and forests.

It was almost noon, and the crowd climbed to the top of Bull's Head.

It's a mountain cliff. Standing on the top of the mountain cliff and looking around, I saw that it was still misty and misty, and the peaks and peaks were stacked. Around Funiu Mountain, there are many large and small mountains.

On the top of the cliff, there are two huge rocks on the left and right, like horns, bending and extending towards the neck.

Everyone stopped at the top of the cliff to rest, eat some dry food and drink some water to replenish their strength.

Song Yinzi had a guard to help him bring delicious snacks, and he also gave some to Xiaoding.

Xiao Ding ate Song Yinzi and shared his snacks, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, no wonder everyone in the world wants to be promoted and make a fortune, this powerful person is different from ordinary people! When King Mu goes out to climb a mountain to hunt, there are people waiting for him to help carry the things he uses, where can ordinary people have such treatment!

After eating and drinking, Xiao Ding asked King Mu Song Yinzi, "Brother Song Xian, where is the red refining snake you are talking about?" Where should we look for it? ”

"Brother Tian, you look to the east, there is a slope over there, and not far ahead, there are two huge caves on the slope. It's like the bull's eye of this bull's head. Right in the place of the bull's eye, there was an ancient tree, and that ancient tree was the fruit tree that produced red and refined flame fruits. And the Red Refining Flame Snake was hiding in a cave not far from the bottom of that tree. Song Yinzi pointed to the two huge caves on the east side of the slope.

Xiao Ding looked in the direction of Song Yinzi's finger, and sure enough, two huge caves could be faintly seen on the side of the slope. It's like the two bull's eyes of the lying cow in Funiu Mountain.

However, on both sides of this slope, there are bottomless cliffs. Looking at the appearance of this cliff, it really looks like a bull's face! This Niutou Peak is really a god and a ghost! This made Xiao Ding, who had experienced two worlds, couldn't help but sigh secretly about the power of nature, it was really amazing!

The top of the mountain is not too far from the Bull's Eye Cave, so Song Yinzi and the others are not in a hurry. It's only noon anyway. Everyone has climbed the mountain all morning, and they have to take a good rest before they have the strength to catch the Red Refining Flame Snake!

Xiao Ding also thought about carefully checking the terrain before making plans.

At this moment, a sudden "croak" sound came into everyone's ears, the sound was loud and full of confidence.

Everyone followed the prestige, and saw a huge red toad jumping from a tree into the grass. Then there were a few "croaks", and the huge red toad jumped in the direction of the bull's eye.

Xiao Ding had never seen such a huge toad, staring at the direction where the toad jumped away and was wondering, when he suddenly saw a ball of fire erupting from the Bull's Eye Cave, and pounced directly on the toad......
