The slope of the entire mountain alone is not easy to climb.

Looking at the nearby ecological environment, the vegetation is dense, and there are not many signs of people going up the mountain, even if there are wild beasts on the mountain.

But things have come to this point, no matter what is on the mountain, Qian Lao and I have no way to turn back.

I could already feel the unconscious part of my toe enlarge a little, and no matter how dangerous the mountain was, we had to go up the mountain to find a solution to the witchcraft.

Qian Lao and I glanced at each other, and we both saw the resolute meaning in each other's eyes.

"Let's go."

Qian Lao slowly took two steps forward, and his hoarse voice came into the ears of Li Yahua and me, and then he walked in the direction where Qiongya Mountain was located.

The moment I stepped into the foot of Qiongya, the temperature around me was obviously much lower than that of the outside world, and the moment I stepped into the mountain, I vaguely felt that the uneasiness in my heart became particularly strong, and there was a feeling that something was extremely wrong, but I couldn't say what was wrong.

"Old Qian, little brother Li, it seems that something is not quite right, this mountain seems to be really evil, don't you think the surroundings are too quiet?"

Li Yahua said with a solemn face, and I was suddenly startled.

Listening to him say this, I finally knew that something was wrong, that it was too quiet, there was no sound of anything passing through the grass, no birds chirping, no insects chirping, not a single sound except the sound of the wind blowing.

It's as if the whole mountain is a dead mountain, and the whole mountain is just the three of us.

"That's really wrong." My face became more solemn, and I spoke slowly.

Now we can only hope that the reason is that this is the foot of the mountain, and sometimes there are people who come and go, so the beasts or other animals do not come down the mountain.

If it were because of other more evil factors, I am afraid that in my heart, the danger rating of this Qiongya Mountain would be even higher.

"No matter what it is, let's go up the mountain first."

Although Qian Lao's face was solemn, he still spoke slowly, and the whole person walked towards the front first.

Because the locals are very afraid of this mountain, they rarely go up the mountain, so there are only a few places on the mountain that can be called roads, and most of the time they have to pass through the trees.

The road is very difficult to walk, and when I see the road conditions here, it looks like it has just rained a few days ago, and the soil under my feet is very slippery.

The folding shovel we are holding has to be tapped twice in front of the body every few steps when we take a few steps.

This is to prevent snakes from being in the grass, and although there is no movement around at the moment, it is as if it is dead silent, but for the sake of care, every step should not be sloppy.

If the witchcraft is not solved, and the snake venom is struck again, it will be a real tragedy.

Looking up at the towering mountain, I sighed leisurely, and with every step I took, my shoes would sink deep into the mud, which was really uncomfortable.

After walking for a long time, I looked down at my watch, and by this time it had been nearly an hour since we had gone up the mountain, and I was out of range at the bottom of the mountain.

At this time, unlike at the foot of the mountain, it seems that the surroundings suddenly become lively.

At this time, I can clearly hear the surroundings, not only insects chirping, birds, but also a hint of wolf howling in the distance.

At this point, we became more and more vigilant, and the danger here was real compared to the strangeness of not seeing anything down the mountain.

There are many things to be careful from here, and on a mountain with such a good ecology, in addition to wild beasts, poisonous snakes and poisonous insects are enough to kill.

Poisonous snakes are easy to guard against, but poisonous insects are really hard to prevent.

Some poisonous insects are not less poisonous than poisonous snakes, such as some highly venomous spiders or centipedes.

From now on, everyone has to give 12 points of spirit.

"Look, what is that!" Suddenly, Li Yahua said in surprise, and looked into the distance along the line of sight, far up the mountainside, and vaguely saw something erected on the mountainside.

It was too far away to make out what it was, and it was impossible to estimate its size.

However, it is very likely to be the statue of the wizard mentioned earlier.

It's like a signpost, and in an instant, we determine where we're headed.

"It must be the wizard statue you mentioned earlier, it seems to be a little higher than the height you said." Qian Lao muttered to himself as he walked in this direction.

"You can't be wrong."

Li Yahua said slowly.

And in the distance, I saw the thing erected, and although I couldn't see the exact appearance of the thing, I had a feeling as if the thing was alive and staring at us at the moment.

My subconscious instinct told me that it wasn't a good place to go.

However, after finding the target, the team's marching speed accelerated, and Qian Lao, who was the pioneer at the beginning, was replaced, and it has become Li Yahua to open the way.

Li Yahua was at the front of the team, quickly waving the machete in his hand to clear the grass and bushes he passed along the way.

The road was quite peaceful, although I saw a few snakes and a lot of insects, and some rabbits, but this way to hide and walk, but there was nothing to do.

As time passed, we got closer and closer to the thing that stood in the distance, and the thing grew bigger and clearer in our eyes.

By this time, we could already see it clearly.

What we expected was right, it was the wizard statue that Li Yahua was talking about.

However, contrary to the previous information with Li Yahua, this kind of wizard statue is not four or five meters tall as previously stated, but is close to eight meters high.

It was the image of a middle-aged man, and due to the drying of the years, he could no longer see his face clearly.

The surrounding environment gradually calmed down as we advanced, as if we had returned to the dead silence of the first time we arrived at the foot of the mountain.

From here, neither the trees nor the grass found any snakes, poisonous insects, or any other signs.

On the way we came, we could often find traces of animals on the ground, including feces, fur and the like, but the closer we got to the statue, the less we could see it.

My gaze gradually narrowed, and the animals, because they remained wild, felt that this aspect was much sharper than that of humans, and there was definitely a reason for them to retreat in the vicinity of the stone statues.
