The mountain road is extremely steep, and it is not even a road at all, although Zhonghao has walked the rivers and lakes and has seen a lot of knowledge, but it is also difficult to see such a steep place. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After walking for more than two hours, I haven't been able to reach the halfway point of the mountain, and the clouds and smoke are misty in the high places, and I can't see where the main peak is, let alone how high the mountain peak is.

Qi Ning's internal strength is deep, but he doesn't feel tired, but he sees the clouds and mist on the mountainside, like smoke and fog, and even with a hint of dark gray, like a haze.

Originally, everyone thought that the Black Lotus Sect would definitely set a trap to hinder the mountaineering attack, but for more than two hours, not only did they not see a single figure, but they did not even set a trap.

There are places where traps could have been set very easily, and the heroes are very careful, but they all pass through safely.

In the mountains, there was silence, not even the sound of birds and beasts was heard.

After walking for more than an hour, it was already noon, and I don't know if it was because of the clouds and smoke on the mountain, the whole sky seemed dull and a little dim.

Unconsciously, Qi Ning had already noticed that there was a faint mist around him, but the fog was quite light, and hundreds of people could still see each other quite clearly.

Senior Brother Lan said softly: "Go up further, the fog is thicker, everyone must be cautious, the local Black Lotus Demon sneak attack." ”

Many people thought in their hearts, there was no one to stop them along the way, it seems that the Black Lotus Sect members are also worried about the sacrifice is too great, so they must preserve their strength, at this time, there is fog around them, the Black Lotus Sect members are very familiar with the mountain terrain, and when they reach a high place, once the dense fog blocks their view, the Black Lotus Sect members just take the opportunity to sneak attack, they must be cautious.

The road up the mountain was no longer a road, but a craggy rock, and everyone had to spread out and climb upwards.

After the second pulse of Qi Ning was opened, the internal force was through, and the body was as light as a swallow, although it was not as difficult as a real light master, but it was not too difficult to climb such a steep mountain wall.

Among them, there are many light skills, agile body, climbing like a monkey, very fast.

Although Qunhao's purpose this time is to encircle and suppress the Black Lotus Sect, he also has the intention of making a name for himself, and if he has the opportunity to show his strengths at this time, he will naturally not be polite.

For a while, I only saw more than a dozen light skill masters, like spirit monkeys jumping between the mountain walls, their movements were light and extremely fast, and they could be regarded as showing their faces in front of everyone.

Qi Ning saw it in his eyes, thinking that this time the Shenhou Mansion had summoned the heroes of the rivers and lakes, and there were some powerful masters among them.

After all, all the sects and factions are selected to come to the elite, while falling into the prestige of their own sect, the people in the rivers and lakes are like carp crossing the river, although they may not all be first-class players in the rivers and lakes, but they are definitely elites.

Although Qi Ning climbed the mountain wall easily, it was still a lot of distance behind these more than ten light skill masters.

Suddenly, a voice from above shouted, "What man? ”

This voice came suddenly, and everyone didn't know who made it, almost all of them were subconsciously on guard, only to hear the voice of Senior Brother Shenhou Fulan: "What's the situation?" ”

"There's someone there." Someone above shouted: "It must be the Black Lotus Demon, surround him first." ”

Qi Ning's brows tightened, and he secretly wondered if the Black Lotus Sect really launched a sneak attack in the thick fog? At this time, although the fog around was not extremely thick, it was already quite vague from three meters away.

Qi Ning's eyesight was not weak, he vaguely saw the figure moving above, heard a few shouts, and soon heard someone shouting: "Caught, damn it, it's a little cub." ”

Many people sped up, Qi Ning also quickly climbed up, turned to a stone platform, and saw that the front suddenly opened up a lot, but it was a rather empty large stone platform, several shadows gathered there, he caught a glimpse of the shadow of Senior Brother Lan past, and quickly followed, and when he got close, he saw clearly that five or six people were holding weapons in their hands, surrounding a shadow.

The shadow crouched on the ground, and for a moment did not look very closely, but then moved closer to realize that it was a child.

The boy was thin, dressed in gray linen, without a single hair on the top of his head, and was crouched on the ground, with his knees folded, and his head bowed, as if he were very afraid.

"Hey, it's a little bastard." More than a dozen people gathered from the rear, and when they saw that it was a child, someone immediately scolded: "The mountain is full of black lotus demons, and it is all done with one sword." ”

"Look up." Someone shouted, "Son of a bitch, who are you?" ”

The child raised his head slightly, and everyone saw clearly that the child was only seven or eight years old, and his appearance was also beautiful, but his left eye was condensed into a scar, and when it was connected together, there was only one right eye.

Everyone looked at each other and felt very strange.

Senior Brother Lan took a closer look and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you and why are you here?" ”

The child's one-eyed eye blinked, as if frightened by the cold blades around him, and he was a little dazed and did not dare to speak.

Senior Brother Lan's tone was slightly gentle, and he said with a smile: "Little guy, you don't have to be afraid, we are not bad people, you live on this mountain?" ”

The boy was still stunned, and did not speak.

A person on the side sneered: "It's hard for us to come up in this place, little children, it is impossible for them to climb here by themselves, there is no doubt that they are Black Lotus demons." He stepped forward, and the big knife in his hand was already on the child's neck, and he said sharply: "Little bastard, if you don't say anything, I will cut your head with a knife." ”

Qi Ning saw the look of fear in the child's eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Stop." Squeezed forward from the crowd and frowned, "Put away the knife." ”

The man saw that Qi Ning was wearing the clothes of the officials of the Shenhou Mansion, and frowned slightly, but he still put away the knife.

Qunhao didn't know Qi Ning's true identity, but Senior Brother Lan did, so he naturally didn't dare to say anything, only to see Qi Ning approaching and said with a smile: "You live on this mountain, and then get lost here?" ”

The boy nodded, then shook his head again, raised his hand, pointed to his mouth, and let out two "ahhh

"Do you know the way up the mountain?" A person next to him asked with a smile, and took out a piece of broken silver from his arms, "You take us to find the way up the mountain, and this piece of silver will belong to you." ”

The boy looked at the silver in a daze.

Senior Brother Lan groaned slightly, suddenly reached out and grabbed the child's wrist, the child was startled, Senior Brother Lan pressed the child's hand with a finger, and quickly let go, saying: "He has no internal strength, he will never climb over the mountain wall to come here, there must be a road near here, everyone look for it." He added, "Be careful." ”

At that moment, the group of five people was looking for a way around the big stone platform, and it didn't take long for someone to quickly come back and say, "There is a small road over there, which is very narrow, and it must be the way up the mountain." ”

"That's very good." Senior Brother Lan said solemnly: "Although there is a small path, you must also be careful and beware of ambushes." ”

"This little cub must be a family member of the Black Lotus Sect." Someone said: "I ran here in a daze, and we hit me squarely." ”

Suddenly, someone said: "Everyone, is it possible that this child was captured by the Black Lotus Sect?" ”

Senior Brother Lan raised his head and asked, "Gang Master Qiu, how do you say this?" ”

The man who spoke was an old man in his fifties, stroked his beard and said, "I have heard that there are some lewd cults that specialize in finding young children, training them, and training them to become killers. This Black Lotus Sect is extremely evil, it may not be so. You see that the child was blind in one eye, obviously wounded, and he was unable to speak, and if he was not born unable to speak, he was probably poisoned. ”

"What the Qiu Gang Master said makes a lot of sense." A person next to him immediately said: "Everyone still remembers the Seven Blood Alliance, back then, it was a crooked evil sect on the rivers and lakes that made people talk about it, and cultivated a lot of powerful killers, specializing in killing people to earn silver." I still remember that the Seven Bloods Alliance was dedicated to abducting young children and training them to be killers. Pointing at the child, he said, "Is it possible that this child was captured by the Black Lotus Sect and was abused, and this time the Black Lotus Sect only wanted to deal with us, and this child took the opportunity to escape?" ”

As soon as these words came out, many people around them bowed their heads slightly, only thinking that it was very possible.

One person sneered: "Don't underestimate this little cub, what good people can there be on this Thousand Mist Peak." Even if this little cub is really a child captured by the Black Lotus Sect, now I am afraid that he has been tamed by the Black Lotus Sect, and it will be a scourge after all. In my opinion, I will kill him at once, so as to prevent future troubles. ”

At that moment, several people echoed, and some people also said: "The Qiu Gang Leader is just guessing, I see that this dog cub is the family of the Black Lotus Sect, and he is lost here, the Black Lotus Sect has no good people, and he would rather kill than indulge." ”

Qi Ning frowned and said, "The reason for the attack on the Black Lotus Sect was that they did harm in the capital and killed many people. The original intention of the Shenhou Mansion was just to find out the real culprit and bring him to justice, even if the Black Lotus Sect members were guilty, their families should not be implicated. ”

Senior Brother Lan said, "Exactly." Everyone is a righteous person in the rivers and lakes, and although the Black Lotus Sect members should be killed, their families do not have to be implicated. When the time comes, the Black Lotus Sect will be exterminated, their families will be arrested and brought to justice, and they will have their own gods to deal with them. ”

When everyone saw that Qi Ning and Senior Brother Lan were all saying this, it was not easy to fight again.

After a little deliberation, they reached the path leading to the mountain, but they saw that the road was narrow, and on the edge of the stone wall it was like a long snake entangled around the mountain.

A group of people walked cautiously along the path to the top of the mountain, walking higher and higher, the gray fog around them was thick, and the distance they saw was getting shorter and shorter, it was already a warm spring season, but the surroundings were getting colder and colder, fortunately, Qunhao was physically strong, but he was able to withstand it, and after walking for more than an hour, he still did not see a Black Lotus sect member, the road was getting wider and wider, and a row of pine trees suddenly appeared on the side of the road in front of him, and there were even stone tables and stone chairs on the side.

Everyone went over to check, and no trace was found nearby, Senior Brother Lan immediately ordered everyone to rest for a while, eat on the spot, before leaving, everyone brought some dry food, that is, Qi Ning also got a share of dry food, Senior Brother Lan arranged for people to be on guard around, and the rest of the people ate by the pine trees.
