Chapter 155: Serial Traps
Fortunately, there was a false alarm.
The heavy dew in the middle of the night did not cause a forest fire, but slowly extinguished.
The wolves did not please several waves of attacks, but suffered a lot of casualties, they completely gave up the attack, but they were unwilling to let the two big pieces of fat slipped away, so they squatted far away.
I don't know how long it took to stay, but the sky was getting brighter, and the reckless deep mountains revealed green and green.
The wounded wolves had already departed, leaving three still on guard, intending to take advantage of the situation.
Lying on top of him all night, Xia Qiu stiffly moved his body and hugged the other treetop.
Lu Tingxiu jumped down, picked up the stone and attacked the wolves, who cautiously retreated a few feet.
Seeing that they didn't dare to attack again, he hugged Xia Qiu down the tree and moved his stiff limbs.
Nibbling on the stiff dry food, Xia Qiu suddenly found that Lu Tingxiu's arm was stained with blood, and he was distressed, "Are you injured?" ”
"It's just a skin injury." He didn't take it to heart.
Xia Qiu opened his sleeve, and his arm was scratched and he bled a lot. Fortunately, it didn't hurt the blood vessels, otherwise it would be strange if he didn't lose blood and die, this guy is always silent and bears everything alone.
Thanks to her complete stocking, she hurriedly applied Jinchuang medicine.
After bandaging, Xia Qiu said with a serious expression: "We are blessed and enjoy hardships together, and you are not allowed to hide anything from me in the future." ”
Lu Tingxiu looked at her more coquettish appearance, smiled and nodded, "Okay." ”
The two continued on their way, while the wolves followed not far or closer.
The endurance of wolves is stronger than that of humans, Lu Tingxiu is full of spirit, not only to be the pioneer of the path, but also to beware of the wolves that will attack at any time, the two dare not disperse, and the front and rear feet are next to each other.
On several occasions, he was almost succeeded by the wolves, but fortunately he reacted quickly enough.
In this way, the body and mind did not dare to be sloppy in the slightest, and soon became tired.
Sooner or later, the wolves will succeed, and the two decided to divide the work after discussion, her hearing is good, and she is responsible for listening to the movements of the wolves, while he concentrates on opening the way in front.
After walking through the forest for more than half an hour, Lu Tingxiu stopped his steps with a solemn expression on his face.
Xia Qiu was puzzled, "What's wrong?" ”
Lu Tingxiu looked around, "This place, we seem to have been here just now." ”
Xia Qiu's attention was on the wolves, and he really didn't pay attention.
Lu Tingxiu drew his sword and cut off a branch.
The two men continued on their way, about a quarter of an hour later, when they saw the severed branch again.
Lu Tingxiu secretly felt bad, "I'm afraid we've encountered a maze." "Her hand-drawn map doesn't have this forest.
Xia Qiu's face changed suddenly, "This forest is strange, the footsteps of the wolves are close and far, they should also be trapped." ”
They were not far from them, and they also circled the woods repeatedly, but they never came across.
Xia Qiu didn't know anything about the maze, so he could only hope for Lu Tingxiu. If even he is helpless, the two of them can only be trapped in this forest.
However, this made the two more convinced that there was a secret hidden in the deep mountains, otherwise who would set up a maze in the forest?
Xia Qiu's face was full of expectations, which made Lu Tingxiu both embarrassed and annoyed. Knowing that there was today, he should have studied the five elements gossip well.
"I ...... I know a little about fur. "He's a man, and if he messes up, Xia Qiu will be flustered.
Xia Qiu was overjoyed and tugged at his sleeve, "Then what are you waiting for, think of a way." ”
"Huh...... Yes. "Somebody is struggling to figure out what to do.
The so-called ever-changing is inseparable from its origin, the maze is derived from the gossip of the five elements, as long as you find the eye of the formation, it is not difficult to crack it.
Most of the eyes are made of local materials, or stones or trees or whatever, everything is possible.
The two of them watched their noses and noses, and observed every shadow and thing they walked by without distraction, silently remembering them in their minds.
In this way, after three trips, I found that there were nine inconspicuous small stone piles in the woods, all piled under the old trees, covered by dense weeds.
If it weren't for Lu Ting's meticulous cultivation, it would really not be easy to find.
Nine stone formations, all destroyed.
The two continued to move forward, and sure enough, they didn't walk any more, but Xia Qiu paused as they walked.
Lu Tingxiu was puzzled, "What's wrong?" ”
Xia Qiu squatted down, pulled the rotten fallen leaves on the ground with his hands, and then put them between his nose to smell.
The fallen leaves rotted and the soil was damp, completely different from the mud in the maze before.
Lu Tingxiu's nose was not good, and he couldn't understand her mysterious operation, but he was not idle, and jumped onto the tree with light skills and looked around.
Standing high and looking far away, he observed for a while, and lowered his head to remind Xia Qiu, "The fog is rising, and it is getting thicker and thicker, and it is pouring into the woods from all sides. ”
No, the weather in the mountains is sunny, why is there a sudden fog?
"That's right." Xia Qiu took out two medicine bags from his baggage, "Lord Lu, hurry up and cover your nose with this." ”
The two covered their noses with a medicine bag, and Xia Qiu explained: "There is a problem with this fog, most of it is miasma. From now on, let's talk less and don't breathe through our mouths. ”
Fog came from all sides, and the visibility became more and more blurry as you went.
The fog in the forest was too weird, and Lu Tingxiu was afraid that something would happen, so he held Xia Qiu's hand and walked forward.
"What are you doing?" Xia Qiu asked knowingly.
"I'm afraid I'll lose you." Lu Tingxiu walked in front, vigilantly looking around.
Xia Qiu's heart trembled and meekly followed him.
The thick fog did not dissipate for a long time, and the two of them could not find the direction in the forest, and they did not know how long they walked, and they vaguely saw something in front of them blocking the way.
Lu Tingxiu bent down and found that it was actually a wolf who was blocking the way.
The wolf is no longer breathing, but its body temperature remains, and there are no external injuries on its body, most likely due to excessive miasma inhalation.
Further on, two more wolf corpses were found one after another.
Lu Tingxiu secretly thought, thanks to Xia Fatpang's full preparation, otherwise he would have to be buried in this strange forest today.
Staying in the forest for too long, even if they had a medicine bag to cover their noses, the two of them still inhaled miasma, and even their consciousness was a little blurred.
Fortunately, the clouds opened and the moon was bright, the fog gradually dissipated, and the vision gradually became clear.
"This place, shouldn't it be what the villagers say?" The villagers said that when they don't see the sky, they will rotate on their own, but in fact, it should be a maze and fog, which makes people have an illusion, and as for the black fog that shrouds the sun all year round, it should be just a false rumor.
"Very likely." Lu Tingxiu didn't dare to take it lightly, "This place is very evil, we have to be careful." ”
When the fog cleared and the birds sang and the flowers were fragrant, the two looked at each other and smiled, and chose a clean place to sit down.
Dizzy and wanted to vomit, Lu Tingxiu opened the water bladder and was just about to drink water, but suddenly something fell on his shoulder, slippery.
Immediately afterwards, my neck hurt.
Lu Tingxiu waved his hand and swept away, and with a "snap", the black snake fell to the ground.
Xia Qiu was afraid of snakes, so she was so frightened that Hua Rong suddenly lost her mind and jumped up in a panic.
Lu Tingxiu drew his sword and cut the snake in two.
Just about to breathe a sigh of relief, who knew that the trees were like rain, fluttering and jumping on the two of them.
Look up, good fellow, the trees are densely packed with black snakes, and they are spitting out letter snakes and constantly pounced on the two of them.
Xia Qiu fainted the snake, and his face turned pale with fright.
Lu Tingxiu protected her by his side and kept slashing the snake with his sword.
"I have medicine in my baggage."
Xia Qiu wanted to pick it up, but the snake flew towards her door, and she dodged and hit it with a stick.
