As soon as the highly tense nerves relaxed, I immediately fell into a state of empty thinking.

I opened my eyes and stared blankly at the mountains on both sides, and I didn't move except for the occasional adjustment of the angle of the raft.

Just when I thought time had stood still, Sammy's voice came from the front.

"You see, turn the bend ahead, and the end of this tributary is near." Sammy said, pointing to the position in front of the left.

"Really?"

I was shocked and immediately retracted.

As I spoke, I looked at everyone with a little excitement: "Where is the telescope?" Give it to me! ”

"Here I am!" Zhang Qiang said, and took the telescope out of his arms.

I leaned over slightly and took what he was holding.

Then take the binoculars and look ahead.

Can......

To my surprise, there wasn't anything special about the front.

There are no houses or other structures.

Mountains, in addition to mountains, are still mountains.

Seeing me standing still, Zhang Qiang glanced at me: "What's wrong?" What do you see? Could it be something strange? ”

I smiled helplessly: "On the contrary, I didn't see anything, there was a mountain in front of me, and there was nothing else." ”

"Huh?" When Zhang Qiang heard this, he immediately opened his mouth wide: "There are no eye-catching features, how can I find this?" ”

Du Deming, who was sitting on another bamboo raft, heard Zhang Qiang's words and deliberately teased him: "Perhaps, the 'True Demon' wants us to search the whole mountain?" ”

"I'm going, no, won't I?" When Zhang Qiang heard this, he was instantly frightened.

Zhao Qiqi glanced at Du Deming in front of him and smiled: "Okay, Xiao Ming, don't scare him." Anyway, let's wait until we get ashore! I believe that the 'True Demon' will not let us search the whole mountain without giving a hint at all. ”

"Well, that's all there is to it now." I nodded.

While a few of us were talking, Sammy turned to look at us with some confusion: "You guys...... What do you mean by 'real demons'? I've never heard of it. ”

I was dumbfounded.

As he spoke, he forgot about Sammy, a game character.

"Eh...... 'True Demon', 'True Demon' is actually an informant who gives us clues. It's mysterious, and we haven't seen it either. We only came into contact with this man occasionally on the way to our adventures. ”

Remembering that the previous game gave us the identity of an adventurer, I casually rambled nonsense.

"I see." Sammy listened to my explanation, but nodded very seriously, as if he really believed my nonsense.

Zhang Qiang and Situ Cao next to them couldn't help but cough lightly when they heard this.

Anyway, things have finally gotten out of the way.

The bamboo raft passed around the corner in a short time.

A few minutes later, our two rafts were successfully docked on the river bank on the left.

Dragging the raft into the nearby grass, I exhaled and clicked out the map in the bracelet menu: "So what are we going to do next?" It's all mountainous, and it's surrounded by dense forests, so where do we start? ”

Zhao Qiqi's eyes rolled: "Since the map shows that the point is nearby, then why don't we look for it separately now!" ”

"It's good!" As I spoke, I turned my head to look at the others: "I am in a group with Qiangzi, Wang Yi, Situ Cao, and Deluka, Qiqi and Deming and Sami are in a group, and we will search to the left, right, and front respectively to see if we can find any clues." ”

"No problem!" Wang Yi nodded seriously.

Du Deming also bowed slightly.

In this way, the three of us walked in three different directions.

Zhang Qiang and I are in charge of the direction on the right.

All the way forward, there are dense plants all around, and because there is no one for many years, their color is almost the color of jet black.

I don't know if it's psychological, but after what happened before, I was always worried about the moment when these plants would suddenly come to life and attack us.

Thinking about it, Zhang Qiang and I couldn't help but take out each other's weapons.

However, contrary to what we imagined, the plants did not attack us, and we did not encounter anything else weird.

Can...... The more it happened, the more I felt that something wasn't quite right.

It's true...... Nothing?

After four or five minutes of walking, we could already see the end of the short distance.

"Gao Wei, why do you say that we have been walking for so long and have not found anything? You see, there's an end in front of you, will the fragments be on someone else's side? Zhang Qiang said as he walked while looking at me.

"Maybe!"

As I talked to Zhang Qiang, we had already reached the end of the mountain.

To be precise, there is a mountain in front of us, and we are at the bottom of the mountain.

Looking up, the mountain is quite steep.

It is almost seventy or eighty degrees from the ground, almost vertical.

I was just about to ask Zhang Qiang to go back the way he came.

He sighed, walked to the side of the mountain wall, and Zhang Qiang wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"You wait a while, I'll rest for a minute and we'll go back!" As he spoke, he rested against the vine-covered mountain wall.

"You've only been walking for a few minutes, it's really ......" The corners of my mouth moved, and I didn't have time to complain.

But in the next second, Zhang Qiang's body began to lean towards the back quickly.

"Eh, what's going on...... Gao Wei save me! ”

Zhang Qiang was taken aback, and exclaimed as he reached out to me to pull him.

I hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Qiang, who was falling backwards.

Zhang Qiang stood firm and patted his chest with palpitations: "Emma, I'm scared to death, what's ......?"

As he spoke, he turned and looked behind him.

In the next second, when he saw the situation behind him, he was stunned.

And I, a few seconds before he was stunned, was already frozen.

Because behind Zhang Qiang, behind those vines, a pitch-black cave suddenly appeared.

No, it was always there.

It was only because Zhang Qiang accidentally leaned on the vine that this cave appeared in our sight.

Don't......

Zhang Qiang opened his mouth and was dumbfounded: "Gao Wei, you say, will this be the ......?"

"Quite possibly, Hadron son, you hurry over and call the others over, I'll wait here." I finally reacted and quickly said to Zhang Qiang.

"No problem!" After Zhang Qiang answered, he flew towards the original road.

"This kid, just now he said he wanted to rest, and now he's energetic again." I smiled helplessly.

A few minutes later, Zhang Qiang walked over with Zhao Qiqi and Wang Yi.

They were surprised when they saw the cave behind me.

"No wonder, I just said why the point shown on the map is in the interior of the mountain, so that's what it means." Wang Yichao looked around and said with a sudden realization.

I stared at the cave and swallowed, "That'...... Shall we go in and have a look? ”
