Chapter 281
"Second brother, there's no way... What to do, do you want to climb trees? Xiang Kun looked up and searched for a few old trees around him for a while, looking for any branches that could be climbed. If you can climb to the top of a tree, won't you have a better view and find the way forward?
"Climbing trees? It's okay to try..."Xiang Peng reached out and grabbed an arm-thick branch beside him, and took advantage of the momentum to climb up to a height of about two meters.
He is also one of the best masters among the Xiang clan, the nature of their work that has been working in the deep mountains and old forests for many years, climbing trees and swimming are also the most basic necessary skills, and these pear trees are leafy and no one prunes them regularly, it is easy to find a place to step on, and climbing a tree five or six meters high is equivalent to entertainment without difficulty.
Xiang Peng stepped on the horizontal branch and then took advantage of the momentum to climb up, but suddenly his feet were empty, and the branch he stepped on seemed to be rotten for a long time, and he couldn't help but break instantly with a little external force.
Xiang Peng's feet were empty, and his body involuntarily sank down, fortunately, he had enough experience in climbing, grabbed the branch above with both hands, and toes on the main trunk with his hands, and just wanted to turn over and find a new focus point, the seemingly thick branch in his hand broke directly, and Xiang Peng fell straight down from a position more than two meters high.
The incident happened suddenly, and the trunk did not have the slightest 'click' sound before it broke, nor did it break the bones and tendons when the branches cracked and then split along the main trunk, as if it had been broken with a knife and broke without warning.
"Second brother..."Xiang Kun quickly picked up the branch and helped Xiang Peng up, "Second brother, are you okay?" βγ
The ground is full of dead branches and leaves, and the height of two meters is not very terrifying, and Xiang Peng's skills are also very good, although the posture of the fall is not very elegant and beautiful, but he is not injured.
Xiang Peng looked up at the broken branch for a while, picked up the branch on the ground and twisted it twice, then turned around and broke it on the nearby branch a few times. The branches of the tree grow very firmly on the trunk, that is, they do not decay and fester, nor are they broken and torn off, so it seems that it is not the problem of the branches.
Maybe it happened that the two that he stepped on and caught were rotten, but the other branches were normal, and according to normal assumptions, they could fully support his weight, and climbing to the top of the tree would not be a problem at all.
Xiang Peng grabbed the branch of an ancient tree in front of him and tried it, the feeling and sturdiness of his hand were okay, as long as he was fast enough, he tried not to stop in the middle, and he could stand on the top of the tree to find the direction after a few minutes, so Xiang Peng climbed up the branch as fast as he could.
Two meters is not very high, less than half the height of the trees in this valley, Xiang Peng suddenly let go of his hand after climbing to the previous position, and jumped down as if he didn't catch anything, but his face changed after landing.
"Second brother, you... You okay? Xiang Kun asked, "Is there a problem on it, what happened?" βγ
"I don't know, but I can't get through..."Xiang Peng seemed to shake his head with palpitations, "I don't know why, the branches above two meters... It seems that it is all fake, and it can't be caught at all...".
Xiang Kun let out an 'ah' and asked again, "Why don't we go back to find the eldest brother?" βγ
"Find the eldest brother, go back and make trouble for the young master? No way! Xiang Peng reprimanded him, "Besides, there is no way, can you go back?" βγ
It's surrounded by dense forests.,The petals on the ground were smashed by the branches that just fell.γBesides, this sign seems to be a one-time scrapped setting.,You can't go back the way you want to reuse it.γ
If you can only keep moving forward and backward and have no way, it seems that the person in charge of guiding the way wants the person who entered the valley to go and have no return?
"No, it seems that this is a trap deliberately set by someone, and after the young master and they enter the valley, they will never be able to find their way back, we have to inform the eldest brother and let them exit as soon as possible..."
The dense forest has always been quiet, and since entering the valley, no birds have been heard chirping, and there seems to be no other indigenous creatures in such a large forest except for these pear blossom trees, and it is as silent as a pool of stagnant water.
The wind blew through the branches of the forest, and there was no sound of the leaves swinging or rubbing against the leaves, and they seemed to be enclosed in a dense forest courtyard except for their own speech.
There has been no reply from Xiang Guang's side, and I don't know if I didn't hear it or for other reasons, Xiang Peng tried to send two more distress signals, but after waiting for a while, there was still no reply.
"Second brother, what's going on?" Xiang Kun asked anxiously, "Why don't you do a hexagram, which direction are they in, young master, what kind of road ahead are auspicious, where is the birth gate of this forest, and in which direction can we go out, do you want to tell the eldest brother to let him...".
"Don't make a noise!" Xiang Peng motioned for him to shut up, and the five fingers of his right hand slowly moved a few times, and then shook his head, stopped there and thought about it and calculated again. After shaking his head, Xiang Kun asked, "What is the result, which direction to go?" βγ
Xiang Peng kept shaking his head, "I don't know!" I couldn't calm down all the time, as if I couldn't figure anything out of the distraction... Liulian, the Jedi of life, empty death, no bones, this place is too weird... I can't tell...".
"Okay, second brother, don't force yourself, if you can't get through from above, let's go ahead and cut down the tree..."Xiang Kun proposed, "As long as you cut off these branches below, even if you don't go back to find the eldest brother, we can get out of the forest with few people, and there is a river in front of us...".
There seems to be some truth to what he said, and there is nothing to think about other than this method, because this is the only way to break the head.
Xiang Peng had already taken his disciples to cut down trees for a morning, although the work efficiency was not good, but he was also a skilled worker with cutting experience, at this time, he didn't think much about it, he took out the machete from his backpack and cut it all the way in the direction of the stream, as long as he reached the stream, he could get out of this strange dense forest.
The valley has been obscured by the dense and opaque cumulonimbus clouds, and although the midday sun is very bright and hot, it has no effect on the cold cumulonimbus clouds, and the dense forest is still very dark and damp.
Xiang Guang searched the way in front of him with a light source, and just took two steps Ji Lang stopped in front of him and signaled him to retreat to the back, this is different from the normal deep mountains and old forests can judge the approximate location according to the direction of the mountain, although exploring the cave and finding the tomb is Xiang Guang's strength, but there is almost no use here, because this valley itself is not a normal boundary.
Lan Tianxing grabbed Ji Lang's shoulders and pulled him behind him, this 'thunder' he planned to go by himself. 'San'er' once said that their dealer has a lot of very good genetic habits, such as giving away their own sons, or standing at the forefront of the team to go to the thunder.
"Tianxing, danger..."The Rose King reminded in a low voice, she was not at ease to let Lan Tianxing go to the danger in person.
"Hmmm! Obey orders..."Lan Tianxing did not joke with her as usual to adjust the tension with a calm face, but commanded very seriously, "Follow behind me, no matter what happens, you can't mess up the order!" If you don't want to do what you are told, you can go back now! βγ
"Yes!" Ji Lang and the Rose King glanced at each other and no one dared to say more, the Rose King crossed Ji Lang and stood behind Lan Tianxing, but he didn't dare to grab the first position with him, she just wanted to be closer to him, and if there was really an accident, she could block the knife for him as soon as possible to ensure the safety of the eldest young master of the Lan family.
"If she wanted me to die, she wouldn't have gone to great lengths to lure me here..."Lan Tianxing suddenly sighed, "Besides, this valley was once considered a place where I lived...".
"By the way, it stands to reason that you should know the way too! But you, young master, are you looking at things and thinking about people? The Rose King teased, "The flower soul in this valley has been guarding you for thousands of years, and she should also be a pure beauty who is infatuated and infatuated, right?" βγ
Ji Lang retorted disapprovingly, "Infatuation is possible, such cunning and calculating must not be pure, women's scheming has always been unpredictable and unpredictable, you can't really believe it...".
