The priest looked down at Long Zhi, his eyes were very complicated.

After a while, he said, "Didn't you believe in fate before?" Even if you poison yourself, you have to make the dragon generation an acting witch king. ”

Long Zhi let out a long sigh, and his eyes became distant.

Yes, seeing that his aunt was bound by the so-called fate, he tried everything to let his aunt break free from fate, but in the end he still embarked on the road arranged by fate.

"Master."

A cold voice appeared, and the priest's hands trembled.

He saw Long Zhi turn around and kneel down towards him: "One day as a teacher and a father for life, the apprentice's life is saved by the master, even if the master and his aunt are now like fire and water, the master is still the apprentice's master." ”

The priest stretched out his hand and touched the top of Long Zhi's head: "Master Wei understands, it's just that your aunt is doomed to fail, and we must find the Teng family boy in the prophecy." ”

Long Zhi raised his head, looked at the empty eyes of the priest and said, "Master, Grandpa Ha has failed, do you think you can reverse Hu Sen's will?" ”

"I am the high priest of the Wu Clan, a person who can see through fate, and Teng Sen must take his responsibility." The priest's tone was firm and cold.

Long Zhi smiled silently and bitterly, although the master gave up on him, he chose Hu Sen.

It's a pity that Hu Sen was not raised by the old patriarch of the Teng family.

And Hu Sen is also smart and rational enough, he, like himself, chooses to follow the woman who broke free from fate.

"Master, I went to the capital and made a hexagram in front of Mrs. Fu, she is the one who exterminates the clan and the one who saves the clan."

The priest turned his head to look, and his empty eyes were dark.

During the night, according to maps and signs, they made their way through and explored, avoiding all the Wu settlements.

Before the morning light came, they finally stopped in front of a cliff.

Yang Jiu looked at the steep mountain range opposite, trembled his hands, and pointed over there: "That's the maze of the Wu Clan!" Master Hou, they are trapped inside! ”

Wen Qingzhu recalled the map, and looked at the left and right sides, there was no way to get past here!

The captain of the guard arched his hand: "Madam, my subordinates will go here first to inquire and see if there is any way to pass." ”

"Hmm."

While waiting, Wen Qingzhu took out the book that recorded herbs again.

I went to the place where the topography of this valley was recorded.

Not much has been recorded on the mountain ahead, and it is clear that it is full of dangers.

But since it is recorded, there must be a way in.

Wen Qingzhu repeatedly looked at the pages before and after, and there was a very rare golden monkey mushroom in this mountain.

It is a high-quality ingredient and a rare antidote to the medicine.

After being silent for a long time, Wen Qingzhu kept staring at the golden monkey mushroom on the tree.

Mao Mao was originally following Yang Jiu's side, but he saw Wen Qingzhu's expression very solemn.

After a moment's hesitation, he walked over anyway.

"Sister, have you encountered any problems?"

Wen Qingzhu pointed to the mushroom pattern on the tree: "This is the golden monkey mushroom, just in the mountain in front, we want to go over, but there is no record of how to get in." ”

"Is this called a golden monkey mushroom? My dad brought some back and cooked them all for my grandfather, who was chopping wood and got poisoned. ”

Maomao seemed to be trying her best to remember, but that was a long time ago.

He doesn't remember very well.

Wen Qingzhu was slightly stunned, grabbed Mao Mao's hand and asked, "Your father once brought back this golden monkey mushroom?" ”

"Well, grandpa has been poisoned for several days, and my mother said that only this kind of mushroom can save grandpa, and then my father went out and came back with this mushroom three days later, but he also injured his shoulder!"

Mao Mao remembers very deeply, his father had a deep wound on his shoulder, which was left by that outing.

Wen Qingzhu immediately asked again: "What tools did your father bring to go out at that time?" What was the injury like? What did he say at the time? ”

"I, I don't remember exactly." Mao Mao knew that this matter might be very helpful to the warm group.

But that was three or four years ago, when he was six or seven years old.

"Don't worry, you think slowly, whatever you can think of, just say anything." Wen Qingzhu suddenly felt that his rescue of Mao Mao might not be random.

After quieting down, Mao Mao began to talk about his father's wound: "There is a deep wound on my father's shoulder, and at night I overheard the conversation between my father and my mother, saying that there is a very powerful jackal in the mountains, maybe it is used to poisonous insects, and some ordinary poisons can't do any harm to them, and my father was carelessly injured." ”

"A jackal who is not afraid of poison?" Wen Qingzhu was even more worried in his heart.

If this is really the case, I am afraid that Fu Lie's situation will be even worse.

In the maze.

Fu Lie led more than 100 people into a circle, all with their backs facing inside, holding knives in one hand and torches in the other.

Yang Liu was in the encirclement, bandaging Fu Lie's wounds, and said with a cold expression: "Master Hou, we must find a way out as soon as possible, the brothers are already injured!" ”

Fu Lie, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, opened his eyes, glanced at the people around him, and said in a deep voice: "The jackals in this mountain are different from those elsewhere, their claws are poisonous, but our poison has no effect on them, so now, we can only kill these jackals one by one!" ”

"But there are more than a hundred of these jackals! They are all fierce and agile, and ordinary traps have no effect on them at all! ”

Fu Lie stood up and looked at the pair of green eyes in the darkness in the distance.

"This is the only way out for us! And the other two teams don't know what happened! Qingqing may have solved the matter of Jinju, and now maybe it has arrived in Cangzhou! ”

"What is Master Hou going to do?" Yang Liu then stood up and put on the armor for Fu Lie.

Fu Lie looked at the cliff on the east side and said, "There is a kind of black oil that can burn over there, if we can dig more, we can directly burn these jackals!" ”

"But on the other side of the cliff—" Yang Liu was even more worried, there was a poisonous snake with red and black spots all over there.

They are not much less dangerous than jackals.

"Don't worry, I know they're probably afraid of something." Fu Lie's eyes were firm, he had been trapped here for so many days, and his surroundings were slowly becoming familiar.

Among the books he took from Qingqing, there was a book that recorded what this poisonous snake was afraid of.

It just so happened that when they arrived here, they happened to encounter a large area.

On this side of the cliff, Wen Qingzhu finally knew how Maomao's father had passed this cliff.

It was night, and they couldn't see what was under the cliff.

According to Mao Mao, his father carried a kind of cross-shaped hook, and somewhere in this cliff, it was possible to lower the rope and go down, and there was a protruding cave.

At the same time, there is a pine tree that grows horizontally on the opposite cliff, and then use a hook and rope to lasso the pine tree on the opposite side, and they can cross it.

Under Yang Jiu's leadership, they quickly found the location of the protruding cave.

Tie up the rope, and Yang Jiu took the lead to go down.

After checking the situation below and confirming that there is no problem, I shook the rope.

Let's go one by one.

It's just that it's not dawn yet, and I can't see what the situation is on the other side.

The person with the best eyesight can only see a dark shadow when he looks over.

Yang Jiu tried to throw a torch over, but there was indeed a very lush pine tree on the opposite side.

But in the middle of the cliff, the water vapor was too heavy, and the torch was thrown shortly over, and it was quickly extinguished.

Wen Qingzhu thought for a while, took out the Night Pearl, and handed it to Yang Jiu: "You put this bead on the hook, although you can't see the whole picture clearly, but you can see whether the hook is locked or not." ”

"Okay." Yang Jiu immediately did as he was told, adding the Night Pearl to the hook.

This worked well, and after many attempts, the hook was firmly wrapped around a branch of the pine tree opposite.

"Now someone has to come over, preferably the one with the least weight." Yang Jiu glanced back.

The lightest person here is Wen Qingzhu, followed by Xi'er.

"Then I'll go!" Xi'er stood up as a matter of course.

Wen Qingzhu was actually a little worried, in case it was unstable, the hook was loose, he fell from mid-air and hit the cliff wall, and it was very likely that he would be seriously injured!

"Madame! I'll go for it! "Although Yang Jiu is not light, he is not heavy.

Immediately afterwards, many people took the initiative to ask for help.

Wen Qingzhu pondered for a moment, and finally decided: "Xi'er, it's better for you to go, be careful in everything." ”

"Good!" Xi'er didn't hesitate, and after testing whether the rope was strong, she grabbed the rope and went out.

Watching her slowly crawl towards the pine tree, everyone's hearts hung in the air.

For fear that if the opposite side is not tightly tied, the rope will be loosened.

Bad but good, Xi'er successfully climbed to the opposite side.

She stood on the thick branches of the tree, and the first thing she did was to secure the rope.

Then she looked up and said to the person opposite, "All right! ”

Under the dim starlight, Xi'er raised the night pearl in her hand, indicating that she was fine.

But what made everyone's scalp tingle was that a strong shadow suddenly appeared behind Xi'er.

Yang Jiu was about to open his mouth, but the captain of the guard immediately covered his mouth.

Wen Qingzhu quickly calmed down, took out another night pearl, held it to his mouth, and made a lip shape at Xi'er.

"There's something behind you! It's huge! It looks like a human, but it could be an orangutan or a monkey. ”

Xi'er instantly felt a chill behind her, why didn't she feel anything.

No one dared to speak at this time, for fear of disturbing the shadow behind Xi'er.

As the minutes passed, the sky slowly brightened.

They also slowly saw what was behind Xi'er.

That's—

When his vision became clearer and clearer, Wen Qingzhu's head exploded instantly.

What the hell is that thing behind Xi'er a human or some kind of animal!

him, or use it a little more accurately.

With black hair growing on its face, judging by its body shape and the outline of its head, it should be human.

It had a pair of black human eyes, and its gaze was fixed on them.

That's right!

It's staring at their side......

Wen Qingzhu followed the hairy man's line of sight.

Maomao!

He was staring at Mao Mao who was hiding behind Yang Jiu!

Wen Qingzhu suddenly remembered that Maomao's father had been here before, and he had taken this road.

But how did he discover this path?

The seemingly inhuman person on the other side is friend or foe?

As the recuperation rose, there were no trees on their side, and soon beads of sweat appeared on their heads.

Xi'er on the other side has maintained that position for a long time, and if she continues like this, her body will become more and more stiff, and she may not even have the strength to escape in the end!

After a moment of silence, Wen Qingzhu decided to test the other party with Maomao.

She gave Yang Jiu a look, and after Yang Jiu comprehended, she slowly retreated with Maomao.

Sure enough, the thing on the other side began to move with Maomao's movements.

Wen Qingzhu asked Yang Jiu to bring Mao Mao up again.

Immediately after, the thing's gaze followed Maomao's upward movement.

Wen Qingzhu was a little relieved, turned to look at Xi'er, and at the same time motioned for her to find an opportunity to come over.

Xi'er blinked, indicating that she had understood.

But now she has numb lower body.

The sun was rising, and Xi'er could also see the shadow next to her side, and she could probably guess how big the thing behind it was.
