Mu Shengbai glanced at the road ahead, and thought about how many inns he had seen on the road just now, which were not far from here, and he would not delay things if he went to stay for a few days, so he thanked them.

He found an inn and stayed for a few days, and finally heard from the shopkeeper that the road had been repaired, and when he packed his bags to go again, it was raining lightly.

Mu Shengbai stood at the door of the inn with his luggage, a little in a trance, remembering the incident when several people strayed into Fengqing City two years ago, and the music felt that if he continued to hurry, this kind of thing would happen again. But retreating in the face of difficulties has never been Mu Shengbai's style, so he still resolutely walked into the rain curtain.

He left the inn along the way he came, walked about a hundred steps, and saw a willow tree that seemed to have just been struck by lightning, scorched black, except for the main trunk, there was no branch, this was the node where Mu Shengbai turned from the road to Jinling City to the inn.

There is a sign hanging on the willow tree with an arrow drawn in the direction of Jinling City.

At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, Mu Shengbai was originally holding a painted lotus green oil paper umbrella, but later because of the heavy rain, the umbrella was actually soaked, and he had to put the umbrella away.

He crossed the willow tree and walked back to the main road, east of Jinling City, which he had walked the other day. But as he continued along the path, he felt stranger and stranger, as if he had not walked yesterday.

Mu Shengbai finally stopped, and when he turned his head to look in the direction of coming, the only willow tree stood there very conspicuously, incompatible with the empty grass around him, but there was a strange sense of harmony.

By this time the rain was already pouring down, and when he looked up, he felt that he was enveloped in a circle, and that the willow tree was the only life left of him.

He slowly walked to the willow tree, stretched out his hand, which had been a little rough due to his long-term martial arts practice, and stroked the lines on the willow tree until it touched the land, and found that the land was a little loose, which was different from the one next to it.

Mu Shengbai's heart moved, squatted down, and was shocked to find that this was actually a formation, and the core of the formation was this willow tree.

Presumably, the reason why they went back to Fengqing City that day was because of this formation, perhaps the route deviation caused by this road sign and the influence of bad weather, so they went to Fengqing City.

It seems that if you want to go to Jinling City, you must crack this formation, fortunately, Mu Shengbai has learned the formation with Mu Changfeng for a long time when he was in the villa, and he has also read a lot of such books, so he is also proficient in this regard.

Mu Shengbai sat down, his eyes staring straight at the junction between the willow tree and the ground, and in his heart he was calculating the method of cracking the formation. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to my heart.

Pick up a dead branch and draw a complex road map on the ground, but it is stuck in the last step, as long as you draw this, then you can successfully crack this formation.

How, exactly?

He scribbled on the ground, the roadmap in his mind became clearer and clearer, and he was just one step away from successfully cracking it.

"Who are you?"

A middle-spirited voice suddenly came from behind Mu Shengbai, and he had just taken the last step of his thoughts when he was interrupted by this voice, frowning and looking back.

There stood a man in a purple robe, with a rather handsome face, who looked like a good person. He looked quite majestic, looking at Mu Shengbai with a serious face.

Mu Shengbai was also curious that there would be other people here, and he didn't feel his approach.

"In the lower cloud villa, Mu Shengbai."

As soon as he heard Liuyun Villa, the corners of the man's mouth hooked up with an inevitable smile.

"It turned out to be someone from Liuyun Villa, no wonder he was extraordinary at first glance, I don't know if the little brother is interested in playing for me."

Mu Shengbai suddenly became serious and looked at him seriously, "If you really know about Liuyun Mountain Villa outside, you know that we have never participated in the struggle of the outside world, so I can only say that you have found the wrong person." ”

The man laughed, perhaps thinking his words were too ridiculous.

"How can there be such a force in this world, it's just that the benefits given are not enough. I promise that if you promise to serve me, you will receive endless glory and riches, and the most beautiful woman in the world. ”

The man said this in a very eloquent tone, but Mu Shengbai still resolutely refused. After being rejected three or four times, the man's face turned black all of a sudden, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I am only talking to you now for the sake of the face of your disciples of Liuyun Villa, you don't want to toast or eat and drink!" If you promise to work for me, all my previous promises will be fulfilled, and I will take you out, but if you refuse, don't blame me for being ruthless, you have to believe that if you die here, no one will find out. ”

"In the next sentence, forgive me!" Mu Shengbai clenched his hands into fists, his waist was straight, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Looks like you're looking for death!"

The man shouted, leaned over and flew over, the speed was so fast that Mu Shengbai couldn't catch it, suddenly, his abdomen felt hit by something weighing a thousand catties, and he was directly hit by the fly and smashed onto the willow tree.

There was a heart-piercing pain in my abdomen, my throat was sweet, and I vomited out a mouthful of blood, and I felt that all my internal organs were displaced.

"I just talked to you in a kind voice but I valued the power behind you, if you agree to my request, everyone will be happy, isn't it beautiful, why bother to suffer here?"

Mu Shengbai covered his stomach in contemplation, and then nodded vigorously, as if he had made some important decision, "Okay!" I promise you, but you must first break the formation and take me out. ”

Unexpectedly, Mu Shengbai agreed so happily, the man's face was happy, and he walked to the willow tree and squatted down to fiddle with something with his hands.

"Those who know the times are Junjie, I will take you out, hahaha."

Mu Shengbai stood behind and stared at his back, but he didn't plan to sneak attack, the man seemed to trust him before he was used to be pointed at him, but in fact, his body was tense and on guard.

"Unraveled."

The man said softly, Mu Shengbai flew in one direction with all his strength, and there was a sound of breaking wind from behind, it should be the man catching up. Mu Shengbai didn't dare to look back, just blindly ran forward, and then plunged into the forest.

Even if there was no man's voice behind him, Mu Shengbai didn't dare to relax, and after flying for about half an hour, he stopped exhausted, looked around, and then he reacted, he, lost.

Helplessly, I quietly felt into an empty cave, my stomach was still aching, so I had to heal my wounds first and then find a way out.
