A group of people staggered along the rugged mountain road in a silent and orderly manner, slowly ascending, and the morning breeze gently brushed their faces, gently describing the sadness.

"Don't, don't, everybody go, go. A weak voice came, and there was a confusion in his expression. A gentle voice sounded in his ears: "Brother Tuo, it's okay, it's okay, it's over." Then Mu Tuo fell into a deep sleep again.

"Ling'er, what's wrong with Tuo'er?" asked Mu Bai.

"Uncle Mu, Brother Tuo is talking in a daze, but I think it's no big deal. Qiu Ling said.

"Hey. Mu Bai sighed and said to the people behind him: "Everyone follow, in the middle of the mountain, we still have a village, let's rest there, there is the secret array of the holy mountain to shelter, it is relatively safe here." "The sudden attack of the demon road last night disrupted not only the peaceful life in the village, but also the parting of life and death.

Everyone slowly continued to go up, Mu Bai looked at this group of villagers, his eyes were full of desolation and sadness, Wen Chong walked to Mu Bai's side, and said softly: "Senior Mu." ”

"Little brother, how good would it be if the world was peaceful, why are there so many battles among all things, this was the case 10,000 years ago, and it will still be the same after 10,000 years, when is it the end. Mu Bai's gentle sigh has deeply touched Wen Chong's heart, yes, if everything was peaceful, there would not be so many lives and deaths.

Wen Chong said: "The predecessor is right, since we can't fight for peace, at least we can use our own strength to guard what we want to guard, right?"

"Hehe, the little brother has such an understanding at a young age, and the old man is ashamed, ashamed. Mu Bai said modestly.

"The senior has been humble, but I want to ask the senior, last night's incident, why were the people of the Demon Dao able to enter the village at will without alarming the Dharma Protector Array?" Wen Chong asked.

"You mean, there are demon Dao insiders in our village, so they didn't break through the formation directly, but entered the village. Mu Bai heard Wen Chong say this, and suddenly realized.

"Yes, I remember that when the predecessors broke the maze outside the village, they used the power of the holy mountain, so they missed two entrances without defensive power, and the demon road must have entered from that side, and the demon road can learn such news, will it be because there is an internal response in the village. Wen Chong lit up the doubts in his heart and told them one by one.

"Well, I will go to investigate this matter, the day of the holy mountain is coming, presumably, the demon two will definitely attack, everything needs to be careful, little brother, remember what I told you at the beginning, you look at the fork in the mountain road over there, one of the secret paths is on that side, through the woods, there is a secret @ hole, the secret passage is on that side, the old man has nothing to ask for, I just hope that Tuo'er and Ling'er can be safe. "Mu Bai said.

"Seniors don't need to worry too much, all difficulties can be overcome. Wen Chong said comfortingly.

"Hahaha, my Mubai has lived for a hundred years, and now I still need you to be appeased by such a junior, it seems that my Mubai is really here, little brother, you will become a strong man in this world in the future. "Mu Bai said.

"The seniors have said it. ”

"Without further ado, let's go to the village in the middle of the mountain and rest, the day of the holy mountain is approaching, and we must make all preparations. After Mu Bai finished speaking, he didn't enter the crowd, and followed everyone slowly up the mountain road.

I don't know how many hours later, everyone walked towards the mountainside step by step, looked down, the scenery under the mountain has long been unclear, only the white clouds are misty, this mountain, is really high, not far in front of them, a row of small eaves has entered the eye, presumably that is the small village that Mu Bai said.

"Let's rest here for the time being, the day of the holy mountain is approaching, everyone cheer up, you go and arrange the living problems of everyone, and there are some medicines to strengthen the muscles and body, take care of the injured, and arrange people to stand guard at the foot of the mountain. Aoki, you stay for a while, I have something to ask you. Mu Bai said to the command.

Juyan arched his hand and answered "yes", then turned to leave, Aoki looked at Juyan's distant back, and asked, "Is there something special about the patriarch looking for me?"

"Well, what do you think about what happened last night?" asked Mu Bai.

"What does the patriarch mean?" Aoki asked.

"The demons suddenly attacked last night, don't you think there is something strange about this? And it came from the flaw in our formation, even the people in the village may rarely know this, where does the demon path come from?" Mu Bai said.

"The subordinates are stupid, and they didn't think for a while that the patriarch probably meant that there were spies in our village, so they attracted a big attack from the demons. "Aoki Road.

"That's exactly what I mean, you have always guarded the village, and you know the whereabouts of the villagers well, this incident, do you think that someone has reported to the Demon Dao?" Mu Bai said.

"Hui Patriarch, during this time, the village has always been a precept, neither contact with the outside world, but the people in the village are almost unlikely, but the outsiders in the past few days may be very likely. "Aoki Road.

"But it doesn't hurt for you to say that. Mu Bai said.

"In fact, in addition to the little brother, there are outsiders who are Miss Qiuling, and Kurosawa's group, among them, I think Kurosawa is more likely, before the incident, Kurosawa had been to see us, his trace was a little weird, and soon after, the demon road launched a fierce attack, Kurosawa is the most suspicious. At that time, the war was imminent, and his subordinates didn't think much about it. Aoki said.

"Well, in the past few days, you have been secretly monitoring the villagers and Kurosawa, and if there is any movement, report it to me. Mu Bai said.

"Yes. ”

The night had risen, and the bright moon leaned on the mountainside, and the moon on the mountainside was so straightforward that it seemed to be touched.

An ordinary thatched hut, Wen Chong knocked lightly on the door, and a voice gently replied, "Please come in." Wen Chong pushed open the door, only to see Mu Tuo lying quietly on the bed, sleeping peacefully, and a young woman sitting next to him, she nodded at Wen Chong.

Wen rushed to the front and asked softly, "Brother Tuo, he's fine." ”

"The injury is not very serious, there is no excessive damage in the body, and there is no major problem after a little rest, but I can't exercise strongly during this time. Qiu Ling said.

"The demon cultivation who fought against Brother Tuo yesterday is not low, this sudden attack of the demon Dao is probably related to the Demon Dao, Miss Qiu, can I talk about some of your previous things in Beiyu Village?" Wen Chong said sincerely.

Qiu Ling paused, she didn't seem to be willing to think about the previous events, there was a trace of fear in her eyes, Wen Chong looked at it in her eyes, and said: "If Miss Qiu is inconvenient to tell, she won't be reluctant to do so." ”

"This is not the place to talk, let's go out and talk. Qiu Ling said.

The two of them walked on this mountain path, the surroundings were vast, everything was so quiet, after walking for a long time, the two had moved away from the village, and came to the edge of a cliff.

Qiu Ling never spoke, Wen Chong didn't speak, the two were silent like this, for a long time, Qiu Ling had already sorted out his thoughts, and said, "What do you want to ask?"

Wen Chong looked at her eyes, she still tried her best to hide her sadness, Wen Chong said: "I don't want to mention the girl's sad past, I also understand the pain of losing a loved one, but the stakes are high, the Demon Dao is not coming blindly, there must be internal responses among them, they dare to attack so boldly, the Demon Dao is just being used by them, what I'm worried about is the big attack of the Demon Dao, so we need to find out their internal response." ”
