"Rustling ......"

Before dawn, two figures in the dark woods walked forward one after the other, stepping under the thick leaves, no matter how light they walked, the sound of dead leaves crushing would sound.

Zhao Ke walked in front, although he was in the woods at night, but with the golden pupils, Zhao Ke was not worried about not being able to see things.

He was carrying a big army green backpack behind him, and if you look at this backpack carefully, it was still the one that Qiu Bing carried that night, but later Qiu Bing chased the monster, and the bag was put away by Zhao Ke.

There weren't many things in it, but there were some talismans I didn't know how to use, and some white powder.

Zhao Ke once tried to tighten the stamp book, with the help of the stamp book to see what kind of charm it was.

However, after the transformation was entered, Zhao Ke was immediately disappointed, and after the stamp book was collected, the remarks on the side only said that the rune paper was not activated.

Obviously, if you really want to use these talismans, you need special techniques and formulas, and you can only use them after activation.

But the white powder, the stamp album gives the answer.

Rotten Yin Powder: It will have a great corrosive effect on creatures with heavy yin energy.

This thing is a good thing for me, although I don't know how to make it, but this big bag weighs at least seven or eight pounds, enough to use it for a while.

Of course, these things were transferred to the postal album by Zhao Ke, although it was for show, but he was not stupid enough to carry seven or eight pounds of luggage to climb the mountain.

Zhao Ke held a firewood knife in one hand and cut a path in the woods, fortunately, although it was a forest, because the weather was too cold, the grass and trees in the woods were basically dry, and they were not full of mosquitoes like the tropical rainforest.

Coupled with the breath of nature, Zhao Ke is like a fish in water here, really like a hunter who has been fighting wild beasts in the mountains for half his life.

However, in Qiu Bing's heart, no matter how Zhao Ke disguised himself, he had already firmly classified Zhao Ke as a dangerous person such as the remnants of horse bandits.

"Sand!"

At this time, Qiu Bing's feet suddenly emptied, and he secretly screamed in his heart, and hurriedly reached out to grab the surrounding tree trunks, but before he could grasp them, the tree trunks had already been disconnected first.

But fortunately, at this time, one hand grabbed Qiu Bing's arm, and in the dark night, he couldn't see the expression on Zhao Ke's face clearly, but only the pair of bright eyes were very clear.

Stretching out his hand and dragging Qiu Bing up from under the mud pit, Zhao Ke looked down and saw that the mud pit below was at least five or six meters deep.

The soil around the mud pit is frozen in winter and wet in summer, and it is as soft as a smoothie when pinched, and it is not strong at all.

The dead leaves accumulated in the mountains and forests gradually covered the hole, and on the surface it was peaceful, and it was impossible to see that it was a trap.

If you really fall, if there is no one to help, it is estimated that it will be very hanging if you want to climb up, and even during the climbing, the slightest carelessness will cause the soil to collapse, and people will be buried alive in it.

And this kind of natural trap, in this mountain forest, there are many more, if it weren't for Zhao Ke's reliance on the golden pupil and Rem, it is estimated that if he were an ordinary person, he would not get lost in this deep mountain, and he would have to fall into a mud pit.

"Damn, I don't understand, why are you walking at night."

Qiu Bing sat on the ground and pulled his trouser leg apart, only to see a large opening extending from his heel to his knee, and the blood was about to stain his trouser leg red.

"Looks like you're not in a hurry, aren't you?"

After Zhao Ke heard Qiu Bing's words, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and said tentatively in a mocking tone.

Although Qiu Bing is not good at talking, he is not stupid, he is vigilant and defensive against Zhao Ke, and after hearing Zhao Ke's words, he does not answer, but quickly takes out a bandage and quickly wraps the wound tightly.

Seeing that Qiu Bing didn't answer, Zhao Ke didn't continue to ask, this kind of person has a strong defensive mentality, plus his willpower is very firm, unless he catches up with his mental relaxation, he can't help it.

As for why he was rushing at night, in fact, Zhao Ke was more worried, there were four postmen in the village, and with that child, there were probably five, three of whom had been exposed, and Zhao Ke felt that these three people were not a big threat to him.

What really made Zhao Ke feel the pressure was the two postmen hiding in the dark, so many things had happened in the village in the past two days, these two guys were still so deeply hidden, they were either full rookies, or they were masters of knowing the rules.

I want to make sure that I can avoid their sight, and the night is my biggest ally.

With the assistance of Night Armor plus natural suffocation, golden pupils, and Rem, if the other party catches up, he can completely take the initiative.

Even, Zhao Ke had a kind of expectation, expecting someone to catch up, so that he could use the advantage of the ground to destroy him.

However, as the sky became brighter and brighter, Zhao Ke's careful thinking was basically disappointed.

"Well, over there, southwest."

Qiu Bing paused, holding a map and compass in his hand, and after carefully comparing the directions of the surrounding mountains, he pointed to a mountain peak in the distance and said.

The mountain seems to be very close, but if you really walk there, it is not so easy.

Since Qiu Bing was not in a hurry, of course Zhao Ke would not be more urgent than him, took out a fish meat that could not forget the fish, and sat on the side with hot tea, eating and drinking at the same time.

If the most magical thing about the stamp album is, there is no doubt that it can keep warm forever, what temperature to put in, and what temperature to take out.

Make sure you will always have the best tasty and tasty food.

"Taste it!"

Zhao Ke saw Qiu Bing standing aside and swallowing saliva, and handed over the fish meat in his hand very boldly.

"No, I brought my own dry food!"

Qiu Bing shook his head and leaned towards Zhao Ke, not knowing what he was gnawing on, but he could hear the sound of chewing teeth in Qiu Bing's mouth.

Zhao Ke took a look, only to see this guy, who didn't know the corn cob he had stolen from, holding it in his hand and gnawing it.

What kind of corn cobs are dried corn that is placed in the yard to dry, and it is almost as hard as a stone, and it is actually used as dry food by Qiu Bing.

Seeing this, Zhao Ke not only felt funny, but felt a little admiration for this upright guy in his heart.

He is like a man cast in iron, that kind of vigilance and vigilance all the time, never let go for a moment, and the scar left by the bullet hole on his face, in Zhao Ke's opinion, is more like a badge for him.

Zhao Ke didn't try to persuade him, and when he was full, the two continued on the road.

It wasn't until it was almost dark that the two of them rushed to the foot of the mountain, and when they looked up, Zhao Ke had never felt that this mountain was so high.

"Are you sure you're in the wrong place?"

Zhao Ke looked left and right, although it was said that the mountain was a little higher, but in fact, the surrounding mountains looked similar.

"That's right, this is it!"

Qiu Bing said with great certainty, his eyes staring at the surrounding mountains, and his hands couldn't help but clench into fists.

Even Zhao Ke could feel the excitement on his body, but this excitement gave people the feeling of being more like anger.

However, just when this emotion was about to erupt, he was forced to be suppressed by Qiu Bing himself, and his eyes quickly returned to their previous vigilance.

The two of them walked down the mountain road into the mountains, but seeing that it was almost dark, they came to a pond and stopped.

Zhao Ke sat on the ground, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked around, it was simply a barren mountain range.

The spring water on the mountain flows down the stones, forming a pond of water here, with dead leaves and duckweed on the green top, Zhao Ke can see the shadows of some fish flashing under the water, this is the only living thing he has seen since he entered the mountain, except for birds.

Other than that, the two didn't see any trace of Zhang Haiyang at all.

Zhao Ke even had some doubts about whether Qiu Bing recognized the wrong way, and where the birds in front of him didn't, Zhao Ke really couldn't imagine that there could be any ruins in this place.

"No way, it must be here."

However, Qiu Bing's attitude was very firm, and seeing this, Zhao Ke ignored him, took out the kettle and drank a few sips of water, and handed the kettle to Qiu Bing.

"No!"

Qiu Bing glanced at the kettle, didn't pick it up, but walked to the edge of the pond in front of him, took a sip of the spring and drank it.

After drinking two large sips of clear spring, Qiu Bing felt that people were also much more energetic, and at this moment, Qiu Bing's afterglow suddenly stood up to the pile of stones on the side.

After seeing the strange appearance in the stone pile clearly, Qiu Bing's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly stepped forward, took a closer look, showed a happy look on his face, and said, "That's right, the professor has been here, you see!" ”

Zhao Ke leaned over and took a look, it was a pile of broken stones, and he didn't see anything.

"This is the code between me and the professor, the vertical stones, from large to small, arranged in letters, and those small stones horizontally, representing the numbers."

After Qiu Bing explained this, Zhao Ke took a look again, and sure enough, the stones in front of him seemed to be very scattered, but in fact they had been carefully placed, and if they didn't look carefully, they couldn't see it at all, and even if they did, they might not be able to understand the meaning.

Because if you want to decipher, you need an exclusive codebook, I saw Qiu Bing take out the codebook from his arms, compare the order on the stone, and decipher it word by word.

In fact, Zhang Haiyang left very little information, only two words, after Qiu Bing spelled out the words, Zhao Ke and Qiu Bing were stunned, looked back at the pond behind them, glanced at each other, and said in surprise at the same time: "Waterway? ”
