Chapter 9 In the Cangwu Mountains

Hou Yue led his men to carefully shuttle among the ten thousand beasts, occasionally slaughtering two fierce beasts that did not have long eyes and rushing towards them, unloading the bodies of the dead beasts into several pieces and distributing them into the team of running beasts.

Hunters often use stronger beast urine to drive away other beasts, and they just do the same.

But they are not real hunters, they do not understand the difference between blood and urine, nor do they understand that the breath of blood not only does not make the beast retreat, but is more likely to provoke the ferocity of the beast, not to mention that at this moment they are facing a mad beast.

The beasts didn't care about the stumps thrown at them, they just sprinted forward, and a few of the beasts stretched out their claws to them as they ran away.

After dodging less than a hundred breaths and paying the lives of three of his subordinates, Hou Yue could only helplessly wave his hand to let his subordinates climb the tree to avoid the crazy army of beasts.

But the fierce beasts stimulated by the smell of blood didn't seem to be ready to let them go, and several giant monkeys jumped up the trees, scratching wildly on the faces of Hou Yue's men, and some even opened their mouths to bite the buttocks of those men.

"Ah~"

A large man covered his face and struggled to fall from a tree, falling into the crowd of rushing animals on the ground, and lost his sound in less than half a breath.

The companions who still had time to watch the scene of the beast commotion, watching their partners who were still alive just now, being trampled into mud and broken into thousands of corpses the next moment, they all closed their eyes unbearably, and those with weak resistance puffed out their mouths.

Another robber fell under a tree, and he was more fortunate than his companion who had died tragically, and the beast did not trample him down. Unfortunately, however, the tip of his spear seemed to be too long, stabbing into a giant python the thickness of a thigh that was snaking and swimming.

The giant python hissed, looked at the murderer who fell to the ground and provoked him, and swung his long tail like a giant whip and vigorously pumped it between his chest and abdomen.

With a squeaky sound that made the whole body tingle, Hou Yue saw the bodies of his subordinates rolling on the ground, knocking down fierce beasts one by one, and finally hitting the root of a big tree, his body was folded in half outward, and his eyes were filled with fierce murderous aura.

Zhang Duo looked at Hou Yue as if he wanted to throw off the big knife in his hand against the python, hurriedly hugged his arm, and whispered in his ear: "Helmsman, calm down, it's important to save your life, Ah Feng's revenge will be counted on the prince's head in the end." ”

Hou Yue's arms held by Zhang Duo trembled tightly, and he struggled vigorously three times without breaking free of Zhang Duo's arms, and couldn't help but unload the strength on his arms in a decadent manner, staring at the animals fleeing below, gritting his teeth and hating: "One day, I will wash this forest in blood." ”

My brother, my friend, and my men are buried here.

Your Royal Highness, thank you for this!

Adding a sentence of hatred in his heart, Hou Yuechang took a breath, calmed the irritable breath in his chest, and continued to stare at the beasts running below with cold eyes, waiting for the moment when they disappeared.

Zhao Lan climbed all the way down the hillside, and inadvertently felt a sudden stumble under his feet, and rushed forward a few steps with inertia, Zhao Lan strangely felt that the ground under his feet suddenly became extremely hard, and there was a sense of regular staggering.

Frowning and grinding under his feet, Zhao Lan brushed aside the dead leaves on the ground, and found that there was a one-meter-and-five-wide stone steps path under his feet, and immediately turned around and ran up the stone steps with ecstasy.

Since there is a man-made road here, there must have been someone on it who once reached it.

With the urine nature of the ancients, where to play, you will definitely leave your own name plus poems, maybe you will know where it is.

The stone steps meander upward, and Zhao Lan ran wildly for two or three miles, until he reached the mountainside.

The stone steps turned around at the mountainside, divided into two forks, and Zhao Lan continued to walk down the right.

Walking half a circle around the mountainside along the stone steps, a magnificent natural picture scroll was immediately displayed in front of Zhao Lan, looking into the distance, looking at the surrounding mountains full of green, mixed with a few red peach blossoms, Zhao Lan couldn't help but hold her breath.

It's beautiful.

Continuing to wander around the mountain, Zhao Lan saw a giant turtle lying at the bottom of the mountain, hidden in the grass, and a huge monument was erected on the back of the giant turtle.

Domineering?

Zhao Lan's brows furrowed.

The princes and nobles of the Tang Dynasty in order to show their strong national strength, the most loved to dig a mausoleum in the deep mountains, and the sculpture of a turtle monument was most fond of casting a turtle in front of the mausoleum in front of the mausoleum, in order to show their fame during their lifetime, did they encounter the mausoleum of a certain royal family in the Tang Dynasty?

Walking down the stone steps to the bottom of the mountain, Zhao Lan finally saw the full picture of the turtle.

The back of the turtle is about a person high, and the high head is carved into the domineering spirit of the gods, as if it is spreading the arrogant momentum of its dragon's eldest son to the mountains, and the stone tablet on its back is about five meters high.

But what surprised Zhao Lan was not how domineering the turtle carving was, but the handwriting on the stone tablet it carried.

"Cangwu Cave Heaven"

Is this Cangwu Mountain? Doesn't Huaguo Mountain belong to Cangwu Mountain? So this is Tianyungang?

Zhao Lan's mouth opened wide in surprise, and she read it again along the stele with her eyes confused, as if she was sure that she was not dazzled.

I came to Huaguo Mountain inexplicably?

Wrong wrong.

Zhao Lan shook his head.

It was only in modern times that Huaguo Mountain surfaced and was connected to the mainland. The current Huaguo Mountain should still be a reef in the sea, there is no giant tortoise, and there is no such a big stone monument.

Looking around, Zhao Lan put aside the strange thoughts in his mind, and his eyes fell on a huge wooden stake on the left side of the giant tortoise, for him, the first task now is to escape, find the nearest town, and return to the capital.

This seems to be the tree that was cut down during the mining of the stone path, hundreds of years of wind and rain have polished the lines on the stump, Zhao Lan crossed the short sword in his hand, and slowly scraped the surface of the stump with the blade of the sword, trying to distinguish the lines on it and find the right direction.

But after scraping for a long time, Zhao Lan didn't see anything except scraping out a layer of sawdust, and couldn't help kicking the stump in anger.

Looking at the sun in the sky obscured by clouds and mist, Zhao Lan sat on the stump of a tree and was silent.

There is no compass, the clouds obscure the sun, there is no morning star, and the trees are too thick to cut down constantly, and the stumps cannot be seen......

How unlucky things have happened to me.

Looking at the pine tree in front of him silently, Zhao Lan was silent for a long time, and suddenly remembered the moss that he often saw on the back of the house when he was a child, and immediately got up and circled around the stone turtle.

With such a large rock, there must be moss in the backlit place.

Carefully searching around the stone turtle, Zhao Lan turned around a few times, and finally saw a few faint inky blue moss shadows at the foot of the right hind foot of the stone turtle.

Stretching out his hand and gesturing a few times behind the stone turtle, Zhao Lan finally found that the direction in which the stone turtle was placed was not to sit north and face south, but to place its tail finger northeast and southwest, so that it was placed diagonally on the ground.

Bianjing, the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, is northwest of Tianyungang.

Thinking about the distance of nearly a thousand miles from his feet to Bianjing, Zhao Lan looked up at the white clouds in the sky and sighed helplessly.

Let's go......
