The three of them continued on the road, feeling good because they were about to go out, but it didn't take long for the situation to change abruptly.

The wind swept the dust in the valley, Mu Wu and the three of them struggled against the wind, not long after, the sky was overcast, the torrential rain fell suddenly, the sediment accompanied by the torrential rain along the cliff to the valley straight into the valley, and there were boulders rolling down the road every once in a while.

"Looks like I can't get out today." Mu Yu looked at the sky worriedly.

"We'd better find a safe place to rest," Reed advises, "or we'll be stoned to death." ”

"But where is there a safe place?" Mu Yu looked around a little helplessly.

"Go up the hill." Reed pointed to the jungle on the upper left slope.

The reed said, "Go to the bush above, and rest your foot, and you can lean against the tree to block the boulder." ”

"Listen to you." Mu Yu said, turned over and dismounted, and led the little red horse and the reed alfalfa all the way up.

Boulders roll down the hill with mud and sand. Mu Yu led the horse with one hand and dragged the alfalfa with the other to dodge the falling boulder.

The reed leaned on a thick branch to open the way in front, poking and poking to test the reality of the road.

Suddenly, the branches of the tree plunged into the void, and the reeds lost their balance, and the soles of their feet slipped, and they almost rolled down the mountain.

"Be careful!" Mu Yu let go of the little red horse and grabbed the reed in time, and half of her body was already hanging in the air.

"Hiss-" The little red horse suddenly neighed, raising its hooves and kicking at Mu Wu's chest.

Mu Mo was pushed aside by a huge force, and as soon as her hand was loosened, the reed flashed and lost her balance again, staggered two steps and fell backwards, and a boulder had already smashed towards her, crushing all the way from the root of her thigh, pressing her face and speeding down.

"Reed!" Mu Yu screamed and flew towards the reeds, and Alfalfa also staggered towards her in panic.

When she got to it, Alfalfa couldn't help but scream. I saw that her solid body was crushed flat, and the white brain burst from the top of her head and covered her entire upper body. Mu Mo held her in his arms and couldn't help crying.

Alfalfa shivered and moved to the side of the reed, tears had blurred all vision: "I'm sorry...... I saw the rocks come at me...... I just want to push you away...... I didn't expect the reed to fall......"

"Reed!" Mu Yu hugged the reed tightly, hating himself for not being able to block the boulder for the reed.

If it weren't for the reeds these days, their life in the mountains would not have gone so smoothly; However, at the most critical time, he failed to catch the reed, why didn't he let the reed pull the alfalfa and open the way in front of him? Why don't you use your hands and feet to tighten the reeds and push away the boulders with all your strength in a critical moment? Mu blamed himself, hating to be hit by a boulder and exchange his life for a reed.

"It's all my fault...... It's all my ...... to blame" The alfalfa sobs flowed sideways, almost fainting from crying, and the quadriplegia was limp and convulsing.

Mu Yu cried sadly, seeing that there were still boulders rolling down around, his chest was still blocked by a cloud of hot air, and he dragged up the reeds with sore nose and hot eyes: "Let's hide under the woods over there, otherwise I'm sorry for the way that the reed found with his life." ”

"Hmm!" Alfalfa cried to help, put the reeds in the middle, and staggered away into the woods with teary eyes.

The sky was dark, lightning and thunder roared, torrential rain hit the face like pins and needles, and occasionally boulders brushed away in a thrilling way.

Mu Mo and Alfalfa were holding reeds, like several large pieces of soft cotton wrapped in thousands of pounds of iron and stone, cold and weak but attached to the ground, dragging the two into the mud, the steps of climbing up were heavy and intensified, but they never wanted to leave the reeds and live alone.

Finally, approaching a birch forest, Mu Mo and Alfalfa put the reeds under a tree and sat down against each other with a blank expression.

Under the shade of the birch trees, the wind and rain seemed to be much quieter, and the boulders were also blocked out by the barrier of the trees.

Temporary safety was ensured, and the perseverance and courage of Mu Mo and Alfalfa immediately disappeared.

Listening to the sound of wind and rain, Mu Yu thought of Ye Ji, thought of Sikong Heng, thought of the reed being hit by a boulder, and then thought of a number of girls of the same age who had not yet met in the Valley of Thousand Machines, and when they opened their eyes overnight, their brains were blank.

The next morning, Mu Mo and Alfalfa buried the reeds under the tree, Alfalfa picked a handful of small white flowers from the woods, put them beside the reeds, and the two of them stood beside the small grave of the reeds, stood silently for a long time, led the horses, and went down the mountain silently.

After the storm and night, the fog is much heavier, and it covers the entire valley like a white tent.

Mu Mo and Alfalfa walked side by side, barely seeing anything around them.

Suddenly, Mu Mo was dragged by alfalfa: "Be careful of snakes, there is a large group six hundred steps away from the right." ”

Mu Mo was stunned for a moment, protected Alfalfa behind him, led the little red horse with one hand, and took the white broken jade sword given to her by Sikong Heng from his waist with the other, and told Alfalfa while exploring the way forward: "If there is a situation, let me know in time." ”

"Okay." Alfalfa pricked up her ears and followed Mu Yu closely, informing her in time that there was a snake circling around.

About a quarter of an hour Alfalfa said, "The snakes are fifty paces away from the right rear, but still be careful." ”

"Okay." Mu Yu was still holding his sword, preoccupied and vigilant.

After about an hour or two, the fog suddenly dissipated, and the scene in front of them became clear: the valley suddenly opened up in front of them, the sun and rainbows ran through the sky, and a row of houses faintly appeared at the foot of the mountain, accompanied by cooking smoke, marking the infestation of the crowd.

"It's out," Mu Yu said, "This is the center of the Thousand Machines Valley." ”

"It's a pity ......" Alfalfa choked up, thinking of the reeds, her eyes moistened, and she couldn't continue.

"Be careful!" Mu Mo suddenly pulled Alfalfa to the side and swung his sword to the Alfalfa's feet.

With a low "hiss", a long snake broke into two pieces at the foot of the alfalfa.

Alfalfa was stunned, and was secretly afraid, only to hear a long howl, and a vulture screamed horrifiedly, rushing straight towards Mu Yu.

Mu Yu was busy protecting the alfalfa and swung his sword at the vulture. The vulture roared, flapped its wings twice, circled into the air, and suddenly rushed towards the alfalfa, followed by five or six vultures of the same size in a herringbone row behind it.

Mu Yu was shocked in his heart: such a neat flock of eagles was obviously trained!

"Shhhh

A girl of a similar age jumped out of the hillside on the left: a pointed face and a long nose, willow eyebrows and thin eyes, a very slender figure, a long aqua green tulle dress, long black and shiny hair scattered around her waist, and a piece of Poria cocos hanging from her neck with a thin rope.

Mu Mo swung his sword and slashed at the eagles, and the eagles were scattered by the sword qi, but the Poria girl whistled and changed into a line and rushed towards Mu Wu. Mu Yu was shocked: Why did this girl target herself and alfalfa?

"Hehe, let's die!" Poria Girl said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time! ”

As the girl spoke, another whistle blew, and the eagles immediately lined up and rushed towards the alfalfa.

Mu Yu was startled, swung his sword and swept across the eagle group, and the eagle group was scattered outward by the sword qi, and then turned around and turned into a circle.

A scream came from the mouth of a vulture, and a feathered arrow plunged straight into the vulture's chest, and the vulture suddenly fell to the ground, and the other vultures were also pierced by the feather arrow, and fell to the ground one after another.

The Poria girl was startled and looked in the direction where the feather arrow was shot—

The willow-eyed woman was dressed in a black coat, riding a brown horse, holding a large bow in her hand, a sword pinned to her waist, and a quiver hanging from her back, and her eyes were like frost watching the battlefield where the eagles fell.

Halberd! Finally appeared!
