Chapter 42
The stone pillar listened attentively. When he heard that Xiaoshi had saved the villagers regardless of his safety, he was relieved. He said: "Thanks to the teachers for their usual teaching, this child did not disgrace me. ”
Led by the stone pillars, everyone walked all the way to the mountainside at the entrance of the village. On the way, Shi Zhuzi carefully observed the environment of the woods and grasses, and said with some doubts: "Strange, strange that there are few wild beasts along the way." I haven't been in the mountains for a few days, why are the beasts gone? ”
Wang Zhifei said: "Could it be that they are all poisoned by snakes and beasts?" Last time, it summoned a lot of beasts. He recalled the scene and felt a little uneasy.
Hua Banxue said: "Although there were many beasts that day, most of them were beasts, so even the birds were controlled by it." ”
Qi Yuancheng said vigilantly: "Is there another fighting beast?" ”
Hua Banxue stopped and closed her eyes to sense it carefully, shook her head and said, "I didn't sense it, it should be safe nearby." ”
Wang Zhifei asked again: "The direction we are traveling this time should be the opposite direction of the snake beast and wolf beast before." Brother Shizhuzi, if the path you led was correct, we should not be out of the control of the snake beast before. ”
Shi Zhuzi nodded and said, "This direction is correct. When there is no fog, I can't be more familiar with this mountain road. ”
The crowd became a little cautious, and their march slowed down a little. At around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the stone pillar pointed to the cliff in front of him and said excitedly, "Look! The mountain pass is ahead. ”
Hua Banxue said a little excitedly: "That's right, I can sense the existence of the letter stone." ”
Qi Yuancheng was a little uneasy, he motioned for Hua Banxue and Shi Zhuzi to wait where they were. He said to Wang Zhifei: "Zhifei, you and I go to the front to investigate first, in case there are strange beasts guarding the letter stone, it will be dangerous." With that, he handed over the fish intestine ancient sword to Hua Banxue, picked up a spear and walked forward slowly.
Wang Zhifei said: "Yuancheng, do you want to release your ...... The Red Mist is coming...... Self-defense? He originally wanted to talk about poisonous fog, but he was afraid of stimulating Qi Yuancheng, so he changed his mouth to red mist.
Qi Yuancheng didn't care, and stretched out his hand to release a few wisps of red mist to surround his side. He said: "Zhifei, you keep some distance behind me, I'm afraid that I can't control these Gu poisons, don't hurt you by mistake." ”
Wang Zhifei saw that he could release Gu poison at will, and he was a little admired, and said: "It's a pity that there are no small animals around here, otherwise it would be good for you to manipulate a mouse or something to explore the way." ”
Qi Yuancheng said while being on guard: "Unless I am attacked, I will not use Gu poison to harm living beings." ”
As he was talking, Qi Yuancheng stopped, pointed more than ten meters away and said, "Zhifei, look, is it that stone?" ”
Wang Zhifei took a closer look, and it was the big stone tablet they found when they entered the village. He was about to step forward when he was stopped by Qi Yuancheng. Qi Yuancheng said: "I still feel a little inappropriate. Zhifei, don't go forward, just help me watch the wind here, I'll go to the front to check first. ”
Wang Zhifei knew that Qi Yuancheng was sure, and he didn't argue, so he clenched his firewood knife and became vigilant.
Qi Yuancheng held his breath and slowly walked towards the stone monument. Suddenly, a yellow figure flashed out from behind the stone monument, and it turned out to be a leopard.
Qi Yuancheng stopped, stopped at a distance of about 10 meters, and did not dare to move forward. He made eye contact with the leopard.
Wang Zhifei in the back didn't dare to make a sound, for fear of arousing the wildness of this beast.
