The vast fog shrouded the distance, like a fairy's light veil, and the closer you got to the Valley of the Ghost Ecstasy, the more humid and weird the climate became.

Not far away is a muddy area with dense water and grass, a swamp.

In such an environment, it was impossible to ride into it, so the people jumped off their horses, left their horses behind, and marched into the swamp......

Nangong Keqing reminded: "There is a swamp ahead, once you step into it, you can't pull it out, and you are stuck in this swampy pool, everyone be careful." ”

The muddy area with potholes and dense water and grass all the way is terrifying.

Xuanying shouted to the group, "We have to make our way through dense vines, bushes, and shallow grass-covered swamps to be truly safe. ”

The river is winding and the water is sluggish, forming large swamps. Over the years, the aquatic grass has intertwined roots, forming meadows, floating on swamps, dangerous, muddy, and devastation.

Nangong Keqing and Pi Qingxuan instructed everyone to walk along the high ground where the trees grow, or step on the heather bushes, because the trees and heather grass grow on hard ground.

The length of the swamp reached more than ten miles, and everyone walked cautiously by using long branches to find the way, while they were on guard.

Gradually, halfway through the walk, the more difficult it became, and Xuanying asked everyone to spread the wood with branches on the ground, and it was relatively safe for everyone to walk on it.

The further you go inside, the more intense the miasma around these trees becomes, adding to the eerie feeling.

The miasma became more and more intense, and many people began to cough violently.

Nangong Keqing took out the pills from the backpack she was carrying and distributed them to avoid miasma poisoning.

Nangong Keqing specially made four bags for this expedition, and three backpacks were given to Chongyang, Xuanye, and Lu Qi, which were all necessary for survival in the wild.

And she herself carried a leather shoulder bag with a lot of emergency medicine in it.

Of course, in this dangerous place, she can use this satchel as a cover, and she wants to get what she wants in the space without being discovered, which is the best cover.

The swamp is located at the head of the primeval forest, and for thousands of years, it has been inaccessible to people, and dead trees have accumulated in the ground, emitting a miasma that can cause people to be unconscious, causing people to appear unconscious and hallucinate.

Qi Qingxuan looked at the miasma in the swamp so much that he was about to see the road ahead, he frowned slightly, and took Nangong Keqing's hand and tightened it again.

Wrapped in such a pair of big hands, Nangong Keqing instantly felt his nervousness and uneasiness about herself, and she patted the back of his hand to show reassurance.

"Ah...... Help me......" With a terrible scream, one of the guards fell into the quagmire, half of his body sinking in.

Xuanying immediately returned and shouted, "Don't move, the more you struggle, the deeper you fall." ”

On the other side, Xuanying arranged for others to use ropes to rescue him from the muddy mire.

Everyone's hearts fell again, and after one incident, everyone became more cautious and cautious, and walked slower than before.

After a while, a valley was found in front of the swamp, which was located between two mountains, and as for what the valley was like, no one knew or wanted to know, but hoped that there was no danger in it.

Although Nangong Keqing comforted Qi Qingxuan, but somehow, she had a faint uneasiness in her heart, this uneasiness had helped her a lot, and she avoided a lot of dangers, I hope this time it will be too.

A breeze blew, and the fog dispersed, also signaling their entry into the Ecstasy Array of the Valley of Ghost Ecstasy, and it was unknown what kind of danger awaited them in front of them.

The special topography of the Ghost Ecstasy Valley has caused many small hills of almost identical size and shape inside, like a natural ecstasy array.

When people go in, it is easy to lose their way, and they lose their confidence by going around inside and burning up their physical strength.

And there are many kinds of poisonous gases in it, especially in the dense woods, and there are also some unknown flying insects and beasts, so this is a forbidden area, and no one cares about it.

In addition to these, there are also legends of supernatural beings, which have been passed down by people for thousands of years, and it is unknown whether they are true or not.

Everyone is terrified of the unknown, and no one is exempt.

Xuan Ying stepped forward worriedly, "Master, this is the Ecstasy Array, we have been gone for a certain hour, and we still can't get out, it's too evil." ”

There are so many small mountain bags of almost the same size and shape, like a natural ecstasy, no matter how you go, you can't get out.

Pi Qingxuan groaned slightly, "Leave a mark every time you go, and go again." ”

This time again, walking around is still in place.

Nangong Keqing took out the compass from his backpack and put it in his hand, and walked around in place, pointing in the direction, "Go over there." ”

Pi Qingxuan followed, puzzled, "This little thing can also discern the direction?" ”

"This is the compass, for discerning directions, if you get lost in the forest, as long as you have him, you can get out."

Pi Qingxuan pulled her hand back, for fear that she would be in any danger, Nangong Keqing smiled at him, like a wisp of spring breeze blowing into Pi Qingxuan's heart.

After a while, Nangong Keqing stood in place and hesitated, monitoring the direction from left to right.

Qi Qingxuan was puzzled: "What happened?" Why don't you go. He looked at the compass in Nangong Keqing's hand, and the compass kept swaying from side to side, so confused that it was impossible to recognize.

Nangong Keqing frowned tightly, and said solemnly: "This ecstasy array has a strong magnetic field interference, and the compass can't discern the direction. ”

"What then?" Xuanying panicked.

"Don't be afraid, let's go and find the spider, the spider is webting in the north, let's just go in the opposite direction." Qi Qingxuan's cold gaze said calmly.

"Your lord is so smart." Nangong Keqing praised without hesitation.

"That's it." Xuanying looked proud.

At this time, Lu Qi excitedly pointed not far away and shouted: "Look, what a big spider." ”

Everyone look over, I'm a good girl! What did this spider grow up eating? It's too damn big, the size of a kitten.

"Go in the opposite direction." Qi Qingxuan ordered.

……

About half an hour, the team walked out of the maze array with Nangong Keqing.

Suddenly, Nangong Keqing's eyes widened, and she suddenly exclaimed, "Don't move." ”

At this time, Chongyang, Xuanye and others stepped forward and saw that there was a black insect on Lu Qi's neck attached to his skin, and it was getting bigger and bigger.

Xuanying's eyes widened and he said in surprise: "Vampire! ”

"Quick, lift his clothes." Nangong Keqing hurriedly ordered to go down.

I saw that the dense bloodsucking insects were lying on Lu Qi's back, sucking his blood unscrupulously, and the insects grew bigger and bigger after drinking the blood, almost burrowing into Lu Qi's body.

Lu Qi felt everyone's nervousness and solemnity, and he didn't know anything about what kind of scene was behind him, so he could only obey his orders and not move.

His heart was beating wildly, his face was pale, and the feeling of fear was gradually rising.

Qi Qingxuan immediately ordered, "Burn it with fire." ”

In a moment, the insects were dried and fell off one by one.

The group walked for a long time, and was finally stunned by the huge pit in front of them.

The shape of the whole sinkhole is like a funnel, the pit wall is as steep as a knife, the forest vegetation is dense, the ancient trees are towering, you can't see the sun in the forest, and the ground is full of strange flowers and plants, the whole is a rare and strange geological wonder.

"Master, this is the sinkhole, this pit is too deep, how can we get down?" Xuanying paced back and forth along the entrance of the cave, anxious.

Looking at the steep cliff, Qi Qingxuan pondered for a while, "Go down lightly, and the others will stay on it." "Even if it is a good effort, it can only go down with the help of external forces.

However, it is not necessary for Qi Qingxuan's martial arts cultivation at all.

Those who followed him were his secret guards and personal guards, and they followed him for several years, even if they were in danger, they were not willing to fall behind, and they were bent on protecting the prince.

Therefore, some people who can't go down are beginning to think of a way, and they are excited.

Nangong Keqing visually inspected the deep pit, and then took out a pen and paper from his satchel, his white little teeth held the cap of the pen in his mouth, and the pen he held quickly checked something on the scratch paper.

Everyone stretched out their heads for some reason, and the strange, crooked characters like ghost drawings came into view, "Master, what are you writing?" Xuanye was the first to ask.

"Calculate the depth of the pit." Nangong Keqing didn't raise his head, and continued to calculate quickly on the paper.

Qi Qingxuan looked at the little woman in front of her quietly, she looked so serious, she couldn't bear to bother, so it could be calculated?

Finally, Nangong Keqing dropped the last equation and concluded: "It is conservatively estimated that it is seven or eight hundred meters deep."

"So deep?"

Everyone felt incredible, and couldn't help but sigh that Nangong Keqing could measure the depth of the giant pit by just calculating, and they all admired it.

Nangong Keqing didn't answer their questions again, but secretly thought to herself: Those military long-range projectiles of hers are useless!

Nangong Keqing asked Xuanye, Lu Qi, and Chongyang to take out the climbing rope in their backpacks, but the length was not enough, so they had to connect the two ropes.

"You can all go down and don't have to stay on it alone." It is not necessarily safe to stay on it, what poisonous snakes and beasts are not there at night? It's safer to travel in a group.

Qi Qingxuan and the others watched in amazement as Nangong Keqing was busy knotting the climbing rope, if he relied on the external force of the rope to fly down, of course, it would be more effective with half the effort.

Pi Qingxuan was puzzled, she really brought a treasure chest!" You've been in and out of such dangerous places before? ”

If not, why is there such experience? It's a compass, it's a climbing rope, it's a big bag, every time you face a problem, you can take out something that comes in handy.

Nangong Keqing was busy with the work at hand, and replied seriously: "Yes! In the past, I often went on missions, and the ability to survive in the wild was a must. ”

Nangong Keqing bolted one end to the tree and threw the other head off the bottom of the pit, "Okay." ”

"You follow closely." Pi Qingxuan wrapped around Nangong Keqing's waist, borrowed the rope with one hand, used light skills, and flew into the depths of the pit.

Chongyang, Xuanye, and ruthlessness followed......
