The horse-drawn carriage carrying dozens of coffins slowly moved along the winding mountain road, the blind old horse tiredly dragging the heavy hull, the sand rolling down the edge of the cliff from time to time, falling into the dark abyss at his feet, the squeak of the axle like an old man waiting to die, as if it might collapse and decay at any time. [No pop-ups.]

Ex took a few steps out, glanced at an open valley that appeared on the slope in front of him, pointed with his hand, and said, "Rest there tonight." ”

The middle-aged fat man kept wiping the beads of sweat flowing from the corners of his forehead with a handkerchief, twisted a few handfuls vigorously, and the dripping droplets just fell into the mud and sand and turned into faint water stains, and then disappeared without a trace, and he muttered: "Damn, it's so hot, it must be the Mozaro leyline that has begun to move." ”

The members of the Secret Panther Hunting Group were lifeless, and the heat made them listless, their bodies swaying with the sitting antelope, the sticky leather armor and lining clinging to the skin, so sad that they wanted to tear two handfuls, the smell of sweat and the moisture rising from the soil, coupled with the mist that spewed out of the hot spring, there was a strange and pungent smell everywhere.

Dense demon insects crawled under their feet, occasionally a few crawled over their bodies, and suddenly there was a tingling itch, but no one was interested in bothering with it, and after walking for a few days, their attitude towards these seemingly inexhaustible little things had changed from the initial disgust and curse to gradually numbness. \\

"How much is left of the Bitter Sleeping Grass?" "At all times, Ex still looked calm, and the sultry world seemed to be insulated from him.

"Let's go!" The middle-aged fat man shook off a magic beetle that was drilling down the trouser tube, and then stepped on it to death, rolled his eyelids, and gasped: "It's probably enough to support two or three days, right? I didn't expect so many bugs in the mountains. I'm afraid it's going to be a bit of a hassle if you go any further. ”

Although you don't have to worry about the insects and ants when you walk, when you sleep, you have to light the sleeping grass to keep them away, otherwise the insects will drill into the nostrils and ears without any scruples, and two people have already died from this a few days ago.

They wake up in the middle of the night, then suddenly jump up and yell, and hysterically attack their fellow neighbors. At first, the team members didn't know what the reason was, so they had to tie them up temporarily, but it turned out to be not a good idea, and the two of them howled for two days and two nights, until everyone was exhausted, and finally in desperation, Ex gave them a sword. \\\\\ put an end to their suffering.

When examining the corpse, the team members found that it was the demon ant that crawled down the nose and into the skull.

When I saw a bunch of demon ant eggs in the white flowers in the sliced brain cavity. And when a few of the hatched larvae were slowly wriggling inside, these people who had been in the killing scene for a long time couldn't help but vomit in large gulps, and they couldn't stop until the acid water was spit out.

Over the next few days, everyone lit the Bitter Sleep Grass without care. I'm afraid that something will burrow into my body and make a nest.

Originally, I thought that after crossing this hill, the demon insects would decrease, but as we gradually went deeper in the direction of the Demon Kedi City, these insects became more and more dense, and the demon insects in the entire mountain range were migrating, and the incessant sound made when crawling made people's scalps tingle. Moreover, some mid-level and above earth demon insects have begun to appear, and these things that live by sucking flesh and blood are even more difficult to guard.

Ex glanced into the distance and said in a deep voice, "There are about five days to get out of here, so that the brothers can save some money." \\\\\ cheer up in the evening. Try to sleep as little as possible. ”

The middle-aged fat man complained: "The Bitter Sleep Grass was originally enough, but the old guy and the female mage who caught it did not carry the Bitter Sleep Grass. Each of us has to squeeze out a little bit to give them, and that's not enough. ”

Ex nodded and said, "It's okay, give my share to that woman." ”

"How can this be?" the middle-aged fat man was taken aback, and then said viciously: "Captain, I think it's okay to throw that woman here, anyway, it's just a hostage, isn't there another woman there in Mersendore? ”

Ex didn't answer, he only patted the middle-aged fat man on the shoulder and said, "I've worked hard for you these past few days." ”

He turned around and walked directly towards a tall, thin, black-robed old man in the group.

The middle-aged fat man saw him whisper a few words to the old man, and the old man seemed to be unhappy, and then the old man said categorically: "No, you don't know the value of the magic mastered by this human woman, even if the wealth of the entire Mokedi City is piled up in front of me, I will not throw her down......"

The old man's voice was so loud that everyone in the team heard it, but they all secretly spat and scolded in their hearts: "Phew, what kind of bullshit magic, isn't it just to manipulate a few undead bodies lying in the coffin? \\

Ex negotiated with the old man to no avail, and he didn't say anything, and after returning to the middle-aged fat man, he said directly: "Send my bitter sleep grass to that woman." ”

The middle-aged fat man was helpless, he muttered a few words, but did not disobey the order, he knew that although Ex seemed to be very talkative, but once he decided something, he walked to the middle of the convoy, took out a small green bag woven of vines from his bag, and when he turned around, he found a short cave man standing in front of him with a hippie smile, nodded and said, "Vice Captain, is there anything I need to do?"

The middle-aged fat man thought about it, stuffed the bag directly into the cave man's hand, pointed in one direction, and said, "Send it to that woman." ”

"Bitter Sleeping Grass?" the cave people's eyes lit up, and now here, the Bitter Sleeping Grass is almost as precious as the water source in the desert.

"Don't make any foolish ideas, you kid," the middle-aged fat man smiled coldly and said, "This is what the captain confessed." **

Hearing that it was the captain's explanation, the cave man's expression turned grim, and he immediately became a little serious, tightly clutched the bag to his chest, and nodded: "I know, there will be no problem." ”

He turned and ran towards the back of the group, and soon saw a beautiful figure.

Although the weather was hot and sultry, this woman didn't seem to be sweating as much as they except for a little more flush on her cheeks, and was sitting quietly on the antelope, her long silky hair was like the eyes of the night god, black and mysterious, and the luxurious black robe was still spotless, and the demon insects automatically dodged when they passed by her.

The cave man subconsciously twisted the clothes on his chest and sniffed it, shook it off twice, and thought that after the smell was almost gone, he slowly walked to the woman, but he didn't dare to get too close, because he knew that this woman was actually a necromancer, and he was a little nervous, and said in ...... period: "This, this is the bitter sleeping grass" After a pause, he held back another sentence and said, "For you." ”

The woman raised her head, she raised the shackles in her hand, and smiled softly, "Can you help me put it in my bag?"

The cave man was stunned by this touching smile, and he walked over in a daze, not knowing how he had done it, and his mind went blank.

"Thank you," the woman nodded at the caveman.

The cave man hurriedly said: "It's nothing, it's really nothing, it's given by the captain, I'm just running an errand......"

The woman sighed softly and said, "You don't have much bitter sleep grass......, right?"

A cough interrupted her words, and the caveman was so agitated that he didn't even say hello and ran away.

The tall and thin old man slowly walked to the woman's side, and casually applied an ice sealing technique to her, and the surrounding area was suddenly filled with cold, and the temperature immediately dropped a few points, this magic that originally belonged to the freezing confinement now seemed to be extremely envious in the eyes of others.

The old man glanced at the woman and said, "You can tell me if you change your mind." ”

The woman stared at the old man and said seriously, "I will consider it, but I want to be sure that my companion is safe and sound." ”

The old man nodded and said, "You can rest assured of this, I have already sent a letter to Mersendore, and he will definitely not do it." ”

The woman sighed, "Your teammates have been looking at me very strangely these days, as if I have taken too much of their things, and I am afraid that they will be unfavorable to me," she smiled bitterly and said, "I can't protect myself now, and you can't protect me at any time." ”

The old man frowned and said, "This is indeed a problem, hmph, the hunting group is a hunting group after all, and it can't be put on the table......"

He thought for a moment and recited a spell in a low voice, and a light flashed on the woman's body.

The old man said in a deep voice: "I have unlocked part of the seal of your mana, but don't try to escape, you are a smart person, I won't say anything." ”

After the old man left, the woman breathed a long sigh of relief, she had not moved in the past few days, I believe that the old man has been more at ease with her, and in this harsh mountain range, the other party is indeed not afraid that she can escape alone.

She tried it and found that she had enough mana in her body to power a simple spell.

Although the spatial ring has been removed, there is still one thing that no one notices. ，

She quietly stroked the luxurious necklace that Luo Lan gave her on her chest, and said softly, "You, are you there?"

A sarcastic female voice came out of the necklace, "Hmph, Athena, what's the matter, are you going to let me go?"
