Chapter Twenty-Five: The Dilemma
As you walk, the surrounding environment changes quietly, the black fog rises, and the old trees become more and more luxuriant, but everyone seems to be unaware of it, and silently walks towards the deep forest.
Before leaving, the head of the sect told him many times that this place was dangerous and should not be taken lightly, and the disciples of Lieyun Peak all mentioned 120,000 points of vigilance.
Ling Pei didn't see that Qi Shuyuan and the others attached so much importance to vigilance, so he also acted carefully.
There was such a vast swamp in the depths of the Rinsan forest, and she had been here many times, but she had never noticed it.
What kind of people set up such a deep barrier, and what kind of power can spread all over the entire Rinkan Mountain, and play everyone around?
Ling Pei has not practiced for many years, and everywhere he goes, he has seen countless people, and the things he has heard are all-encompassing, but when he saw the tip of the iceberg floating out of the Rinkan Mountain Forest with his own eyes, his heart was still shocked and shocked.
It seems to be a long-sealed secret, but the veil is finally revealed, revealing a little eyebrows.
The black fog was deep and shallow, and they passed through countless thick and light mists, and there was still a dense forest with no end in sight in front of them.
Surrounded by giant trees, Ling Pei sank unintentionally, looked at Qi Shuyuan and said, "Where is the destination of this trip?" ”
Qi Shuyuan didn't speak, if he knew, he wouldn't be careful to test forward.
Jiang Yan patted his hand, the mission of this trip was secretive, they didn't even know how to get to their destination and what they were looking for.
Qi Shu said from afar: "Follow me to the front." ”
Xia Ning sighed silently, this task is the protagonist of the pit.
Ling Pei didn't stop his pace, inspected Qi Shuyuan and Jiang Yan, and said with the same expression: "There is a problem with your mission route. ”
Qi Shuyuan glanced at each other, silent.
Xia Ning's eyebrows moved, how did Senior Sister Pei Wu find out?
Brother Yan's sister Yan's route is indeed wrong. They followed the information given by Master Jiang all the way forward, through the outer forest, through the swamp, but they were trapped in the central forest.
In the original book, Brother Yan and Sister Yan stayed in the central forest for a long time, and they vaguely felt that something was wrong, but the route given by the head was like this, and there was no mistake.
As a personal disciple of the head of Jiang, Brother Yan has trusted and respected him since he was a child, and even has no doubt about the news he gave.
It wasn't until they came all the way to the end, surrounded by old trees and obstacles, that they were willing to believe that the news conveyed by the boss was wrong.
At this point, it is naturally time for Brother Yan and Sister Yan to be in the limelight. shows affection, shows intelligence, and shows ability, but Xia Ning is very happy.
But even if she knew that she was going the wrong way, Xia Ning couldn't mention it, after all, she was a little cannon fodder that everyone looked down on.
Not only will people not believe it, but they may also beat her up.
Xia Ning knew that it was because she had seen the plot, but now, how did Senior Sister Pei Wu know......
Nie An said, "How does Senior Sister Ling know that she has made a mistake?" ”
"Don't you think it's strange?" In order to surpass Su Yuncheng in the past, Ling Pei did not work the formation.
She looked at the intricate forest road in front of her, and at this time the black fog faded again, and this was the first time that the black fog had turned from thick to light, and the thick branches that were intertwined fell into dim shadows.
Nie An said: "What's strange? ”
"It's like being in an outer forest, and we're all led by the nose by a nameless force. The forest of Rinkan Mountain outside is so huge, but you can pass through it in a short time, and no matter how big the forest in the center of the swamp is, it can't go beyond this limit, but you can't go to the end......"
Ling Pei stopped unintentionally, glanced at everyone, and then looked at the forest in a blink of an eye.
Nie An pondered: "You mean that there is a barrier set up here like the outer forest?" ”
Qi Shuyuan and Jiang Yan were silent, they believed in the boss and did not dare to doubt it.
At this time, the doubts hidden in his heart were broken by Ling Pei and had to face them.
"You are unobstructed in the outer forest, but here...... But it's unpredictable," Ling Peiwu took two steps, his sword scabbard brushing away the whiskers hanging from the old tree, "You see, the trunk here is so thick, but the whole tree is old and weak, and it is not as vigorous as the spirit in front. ”
When everyone looked up, they noticed the strangeness of the giant trees, the tall and rough ancient trees were like people in their twilight years.
The tree was lifeless and lost water, most of the branches were broken and connected to the bark and dried on the tree, and the dark green leaves were also strangely green, so green that they turned black, as if they were going to wither in the next second.
With such huge old trees close to each other, it's no wonder that the roads are getting more and more congested.
Ling Peiwu continued: "If we continue like this, not only will we not be able to reach our destination, but we may also be on a dead end. ”
Xia Ning: ??!!
It's you who know the plot, not me! Word for word, it's all right!
worship, worthy of being one of the mainstays of the later resistance to the villains!
Qi Shuyuan and Jiang Yan glanced at each other, they had known each other for many years, and they had a tacit understanding, and they knew each other's thoughts with just one look.
Qi Shuyuan bowed slightly.
Jiang Yan took two steps forward and said to Ling Pei: "In that case, what does Senior Sister Ling think?" ”
Ling Peiwu turned his eyes and looked at Xia Ning: "What does Senior Sister Xia think?" ”
Xia Ning: No, don't call me senior sister, I'm not worthy.
Naturally, she couldn't answer the reason, after all, Xia Ning was only concerned about watching her brother show her affection at that time, and what escape and correct route were not within her care.
Anyway, the male and female protagonists will not be easily led, of course, in the end, the distant brother was killed by the stinky villain.
Everyone looked at Xia Ning together, inexplicably looking forward to her opinion.
As a true disciple of Tianqing, although her spiritual power is not refined, maybe she is good at other aspects?
Xia Ning: "......"
What are you doing with me? Just because I've read a book doesn't mean I can remember it!
Everyone was speechless when they saw her stunned look.
After all, I'm overestimating you.
Then everyone turned to Ling Peiwu, wanting to know what she thought.
Ling Pei was expressionless and said, "I don't know either." ”
“……”
In the end, it is an unfathomable and profound magic circle, and it is extraordinary to be able to see a slight difference, if it can be easily cracked, it will not obstruct the eyes of so many people for such a long time.
Xia Ning was speechless.
The highlight moment of the original book Zhongyuan's brother and sister Yan was after being trapped, and the two of them showed their magic powers and went straight to the final base after breaking out of the predicament - although they didn't see the fierce beast - the original book emphasized countless times that the beads were very likely to be accompanied by demon beasts, and the fierce beasts of the regional copy level.
Where spiritual things grow, there will be highly poisonous things, countless pearls that have been sought after and died by their ancestors, and the danger of the monsters hidden beside them can be imagined.
Opportunities and dangers are accompanied, and Sister Yan, the distant brother, did not encounter the fierce beast, nor did she find anything.
If they change their route and the highlight moment is cut, it is not certain whether they can reach the target base, but if this is the case, Sister Yan and they will not be seriously injured!
Xia Ning was excited in her heart, and her cub heart suddenly rose.
She frowned slightly, and said as if seriously: "This place is much weirder and weirder than the outer forest, and the formation set up outside is huge and weak, and it poses no threat to people or beasts. And here - the killing machine is hidden, pushing people to death! ”
After a pause, he said his true purpose: "Senior Brother Qi, let's change our course!" ”
Qi Shuyuan lowered his eyes and pondered.
It seems that the person who forgot to say this was Xia Ning, who had caused him to be bedridden for ten days, because what she said was exactly what he thought.
For decades, the Rinshan Forest has been used as a training base by various cultivation sects, precisely because there are so many spirit beasts and monsters here, and since crossing the forest to the swamp, the road has been dead and silent, and there is no living thing in sight.
Not to mention spirit animals, even snakes, insects, rats and ants are extremely rare, which is diametrically opposed to the vitality outside, and is eerily calm.
Jiang Yan was beside him and said softly: "Brother Yuan, let's change the route for the time being." ”
Qi Shuyuan was silent for a while, and then agreed to change his course.
If the information given by the head is wrong, no matter how you go, you can't get to "Cangchi", and if you can't get to "Cangchi", the things in his hands can't play a role, and you can only find another way for today's plan.
"The light of the vast expanse is hidden in the west."
Now going west but life and death are unpredictable, life and death are contradictory, west to death, is it not the road of life in the east?
Several people turned to the east, and Xia Ning sighed secretly.
I was afraid that my brother would not listen to the persuasion, so he insisted on walking a road to the dark, and was trapped in the dark central forest, and finally rushed out, but found nothing, and was injured to varying degrees one by one.
I didn't dare to think that Sister Yan was covered in blood, and I felt distressed......
Xia Ning looked at the beautiful figure in front of her, who knew nothing, and was indignant in her heart, Mom will definitely protect you!
Stay away from danger, the road ahead!
The beautiful, kind, handsome and upright male and female protagonists are responsible for the sweet and sweet sprinkled dog food, and it's over, who loves to do the dirty work, take away my brother and sister Yan, don't make an appointment! Good bye!
With joy in his heart, his demeanor was flying, and the corners of Xia Ning's lips couldn't help but rise, revealing his secret joy.
The road ahead is unknown, Ling Pei is worry-free, looking at the current situation, the disciples of Lie Yunfeng are also half-understood, I am afraid that they are not much better than themselves.
On the banks of the ancient and mysterious Rinshan Mountain, the strange and unspeakable secret missions, and the huge magic circle in the unknown, one by one pressed on Ling Pei's heart, pressing her upset, as if she was in a whirlpool but didn't know what was around the whirlpool, it felt terrible!
Everyone followed Qi Shuyuan to change the route, and the initial journey became clearer and clearer, surrounded by crowded old trees, and the vision was instantly bright, and the road changed from one to thousands.
Xia Ning looked back at the road she had walked, and the secret path was indeed a trap and a dead end.
At this point, everyone couldn't help but look at Ling Pei with admiration, and suddenly joined without knowing the details but could assert that this was not a good way, even Ji Zhuli, who had been suppressed by her before, also secretly admired her decisiveness.
Ling Peiwu and Qi Shuyuan's faces did not change, Jiang Yan was slightly surprised and returned to normal, only Xia Ning secretly applauded.
Walking straight to the east, the avenue is clear, and even the light in the forest is getting brighter, and the layers of fog that originally filled the eyes dissipate, and the slightest ray of light passes through the thick and lush leaves and falls on the soil and dead leaves. They shuttled through the central forest all the way, just as easily as Qi Shuyuan led them through the outer forest at the beginning.
The difference is that this time they will not reach the end.
Wandering through the central forest as if nothing was on the side, always eastward, always shuttling.
Countless times I thought that I was about to reach the end, but when I took a step forward, there were many ancient trees and thousands of forks in the forest, and in the end, Xia Ning, who had the weakest physique, was the first to hold on.
