Chapter 678: Wizard's Warning

Chapter 678: Guide's Warning

The big-headed fish said, "I brought that old hunter, do you want to see it?"

Luo Xiaofeng hurriedly said, "Where is that old Orion?"

The big-headed fish turned around and pointed with his hand: "There it is!"

Under a large banyan tree in the distance, leaning obliquely against an old man. Because it was too far away, Luo Xiaofeng couldn't see the old man's appearance clearly, but the old man's white beard was particularly eye-catching.

The big-headed fish waved at the old man from afar: "Gui Ye......"

The old man held a dry tobacco pouch in his hand, he knocked off the ash in the smoke pot, and strode towards Luo Xiaofeng.

The old man walked vigorously, with wind under his feet, and a leather bag on his back. Dozens of arrows were stuck in the skin.

The old man stood beside Luo Xiaofeng.

The big-headed fish is introducing: "This is the county government's Luo fishing head!"

The old man didn't have a smile on his face, but said lightly: "My surname is Gui, and I am ranked ninth at home, so everyone calls me Gui Jiu." ”

Luo Xiaofeng looked at Gui Jiu's face. Gui Jiu is really old, his face and forehead are full of wrinkles, and his white beard makes him look even older.

Luo Xiaofeng had a smile on his face: "The old man used to go to Savage Ridge?"

Gui Jiu looked at the lush and misty Savage Ridge, and said with a serious face: "That was twelve years ago, and now, no one dares to go up to the Savage Ridge." He glanced at the big-headed fish, and slowly continued: "If this little brother hadn't given me a piece of gold and killed me, I wouldn't have gone up!" He looked into the distance and muttered to himself: "I'm already an old man, you young people are not afraid of death, am I still afraid of this bad old man?"

Luo Xiaofeng smiled bitterly, he didn't know what to say. This is an indifferent and straightforward old man! This is Gui Jiu's first impression of Luo Xiaofeng.

Luo Xiaofeng suddenly asked, "I wonder when the old man will take us to Savage Ridge?"

Gui Jiu said coldly: "Go up now!"

Luo Xiaofeng smiled again.

As Gui Jiu spoke, he suddenly turned around and walked towards the bottom of the ridge.

The big-headed fish was surprised: "Gui Ye...... Why are you leaving?"

Gui Jiu said coldly: "The Savage Ridge is hundreds of miles in radius, and from here, it is very dangerous. ”

The big-headed fish was pleasantly surprised: "Does Gui Ye have a shortcut to the mountains?"

Gui Jiu's face was confident: "I grew up here since I was a child, and I know more than you." ”

Gui Jiu took Luo Xiaofeng and retreated to the foot of the mountain, and made a long, long detour before going up the mountain. From here, the terrain is much gentler.

Twilight. Although the drizzle had long since stopped, the wind was blowing very tightly. Gui Jiu's white beard shook in the wind. The mountain road is quite easy to walk, the soft spring grass, stepping on it, gives people a very comfortable feeling.

The grass here is special, it is several times deeper than elsewhere.

Gui Jiu suddenly stopped and shouted to everyone: "Protect the dry food, light the torches, and we will go to the ridge for the night." ”

Most of the ridge is tall pines and cypresses that are evergreen all year round. The afterglow of the setting sun is obscured. The surroundings instantly went dark.

Sister Tiger lit the torch first. The firelight illuminated her big face. Although Sister Tiger's face is not white, it is full of youthful crimson.

Ah Juan was on the right side of Sister Tiger, her white and pure little face was full of excitement.

This is the legendary Savage Ridge! Amaki is a weak and shy girl, and even she didn't think that she would have the courage to stand in this place.

The big-headed fish suddenly shouted, "Here...... Someone's been here!" his voice was distinctly vibrato.

Gui Jiu was taken aback: "This is a Jedi, who dares to come up?"

The big-headed fish pointed to a dwarf pine and said in a trembling voice, "That's ...... What's that?"

Gui Jiu also lit the torch, and he held it high.

Everyone could see clearly that on a very inconspicuous dwarf pine, there was a dazzling red ribbon.

The red ribbon fluttered in the wind, and the hunting sounded, like a beating flame under the reflection of the firelight.

Luo Xiaofeng walked around from the side, he just wanted to reach out and touch the red ribbon.

Gui Jiu suddenly shouted, "Can't ...... Bump!"

This voice startled everyone.

Luo Xiaofeng's outstretched hand hung in the air, he looked at Gui Jiu and smiled, "Why?"

Gui Jiu's face was ugly, his eyes widened, he looked at the red ribbon fluttering in the wind on the dwarf pine, and said in a trembling voice: "This is the soul belt, and anyone who touches it will die of festering all over his body." ”

Hearing Gui Jiu's words, everyone's faces changed, and Luo Xiaofeng was also taken aback: "Really?"

Gui Jiu touched the gray beard and sighed, "I'm a bad old man who is about to go into the ground, how can I lie to you?"

The big-headed fish's eyes flashed: "Your old man hasn't been on the mountain for many years, how do you know that this is the soul belt?"

Gui Jiu sighed, his face was gloomy and terrifying: "Except for me Gui Jiu, I'm afraid there is really no one alive who knows about this." ”

Gui Jiu held the torch and stared intently at the dazzling red ribbon.

Luo Xiaofeng looked at the red ribbon, then at Gui Jiu, and suddenly asked, "How did your old man know about this red ribbon?"

Gui Jiu said coldly: "This is my business, why should I tell you?"

Luo Xiaofeng was not angry.

The smiling monkey standing on the side said angrily: "Why don't you know how to lift? My master is the head catcher of the county government!"

Gui Jiu sneered: "What if it's a head catcher? I'm not his prisoner?"

Luo Xiaofeng smiled and waved his hand at the smiling monkey.

The big-headed fish hurriedly ran over to play the round: "It's not that my master doesn't believe you, he's just curious......"

Sister Tiger on the side puffed out her cheeks: "I don't believe in evil, such a beautiful red ribbon, maybe it was accidentally dropped by a little daughter-in-law." ”

The little black man, who has always been silent, actually spoke: "I think so too!"

Gui Jiu's face slowly calmed down, and he sighed, but did not speak.

The cold wind passed through the forest, and the flames were blown crooked, making a "whining" sound.

Gui Jiu broke off a branch and walked straight to the dwarf pine.

On the dwarf pine, the dazzling red ribbon danced strangely in the night wind.

Gui Jiu's hand suddenly trembled violently.

Everyone held their breath and became nervous.

Gui Jiu trembled his hands and slowly stretched the branch in his hand towards the dazzling red ribbon.

The branch in Gui Jiu's hand was getting closer and closer to the red ribbon.

Two-foot ...... One Foot ...... Five-inch ...... One inch ......

The moment the branch in Gui Jiu's hand touched the red ribbon, something strange happened.

The red ribbon fluttering in the wind suddenly turned into a fiery snake, tightly entangled around the branch in Gui Jiu's hand.

Gui Jiu quickly shook off the branch in his hand and staggered back a few steps.

The twigs fell to the ground, emitting a violent stench.

Everyone was horrified and discolored. Even the well-informed Luo Xiaofeng was taken aback.
