……

"It's just 30 points less yang value." Shang Yan stood in front of the blackboard and said with a solemn face.

Although he didn't know what had just happened in this room, he could tell from the data displayed on the blackboard that his situation was absolutely very dangerous during the previous power outage.

If you don't have this yang value, it is estimated that you will not survive tonight.

"I deducted 30 yang points once, so if there are two more situations like tonight, won't I die?" Shang Yan couldn't help but be afraid for a while, it seems that grandpa's old mansion is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

At the moment, there are undoubtedly only two ways to go in front of Shang Yan's eyes.

1. Flee back to the city and hide as far away as possible.

Second, rely on this blackboard to strengthen yourself, and treat the symptoms and root causes.

"Leaving Fuyuki Town, what if this kind of thing happens again in the future? Besides, if I tell anyone what happened tonight, no one will necessarily believe me. Shang Yan pondered for a moment, and then decided.

He has to do tasks and earn yang energy points!

On the left side of the blackboard, because of the appearance of this limited-time mission, there are also two new patterns.

One is a map-like chalk drawing.

One is a pattern similar to the one on Taoist rune paper, which should be the temporarily available peace talisman drawing method mentioned on the quest reward.

I have to say that this task is quite humanistic, in terms of the situation that happened just now, I can't guarantee that Shang Yan will encounter strange things again after leaving the old mansion, and without the protection of the Yang Qi value of the cemetery, Shang Yan will definitely die an ordinary person who has no ability to resist.

After all, Shang Yan didn't believe that the newborn calf [One] he currently owned could help him in a time of crisis.

The chalk drawing was a contour topographic map, and Shang Yan didn't forget all the knowledge he learned in high school geography class.

I saw that this map looked like a number of eights overlapped together, and in the middle of this eight, there was a red chalk mark ✘, which looked like the location of the nameless corpse.

Contour topographic maps, the peaks are expressed in the form of rings, and the wide distance between the circles indicates that the terrain is gentle and the slope is not large, and vice versa indicates that the terrain is steep.

Shang Yan took a picture of the map with his mobile phone, and then took out a pen and paper from the bedside table in the room, intending to copy the peace charm.

Although the Taoist rune paper is made of materials such as cinnabar and yellow paper, Shang Yan can't meet this condition at the moment.

However, since the blackboard only gives the pattern of the peace charm drawing method, and does not explain the other things needed, it proves that the use of this pattern alone is also effective.

For the sake of insurance, Shang Yan directly copied fifty peace charms in one go, and then put on his clothes and picked up his mobile phone and walked downstairs.

Not sleeping in the middle of the night, and going to the deep mountains and old forests to dig up corpses, this is obviously not something that normal people can do.

Taking out a hoe and a shovel from the utility room, and then putting a loop of hemp rope on his shoulder, Shang Yan left the old mansion with a dilapidated flashlight that he had found in the utility room.

The night breeze is cool and silent.

With the help of the time displayed on the mobile phone screen, Shang Yan learned that it was already half past two in the morning at this time, and this point in time in the city was only the beginning of the night owls' nightlife, but in Dongmu Town, all the townspeople were definitely in the deepest sleep at this moment, and they couldn't even hear the sound of a dog barking.

Shang Yan compared the map on the photo, and found that the two mountains shown on the map seemed to be the two closest to Winterwood Town.

And because Shang Yan's old mansion is the closest house to the mountain in the entire Dongmu Town, Shang Yan can directly enter the mountain from the backyard direction at this time.

Reaching out and touching the pocket of his bulging coat, which was filled with the fifty peace charms he had just copied, Shang Yan took a deep breath and walked into the dark night.

……

In the mountains near Dongmu Town, Shang Yan had also gone in with his grandfather before, but at half past two in the morning, Shang Yan went deep into it alone, and Shang Yan tried it for the first time.

When the mountain breeze blows, the plants and branches on the roadside will sizzle, but it looks a little eerie.

"The target is between two mountains, looking at the position of the contour line of the mountain peak on the left, it feels like it has a height of more than 60 meters, and I have to walk to the position closest to the target on this mountain." Shang Yan said while looking at the map on his phone, turning his head left and right to observe the surroundings.

Whining! Cuckoo!

An owl stood on a branch, tilting its head to look at Shang Yan, but it flew away after a while.

After about a few hundred meters into the mountain, Shang Yan suddenly turned around and walked towards a nearby bush where there was no mountain road, and according to the location of the red cross on the map, he had to turn in this direction to reach his destination.

At this time, the newborn calf [one] that Shang Yan drew during the day came in handy, carrying a hoe and a shovel, plus a bundle of hemp rope and a large flashlight to trek through the mountains, which was definitely not something that ordinary college students could do.

However, with the newborn calf [1], Shang Yan could barely carry these things around the mountains like a nobody.

The more he walked up the mountain, the more Shang Yan's expression tightened, he hadn't forgotten the experience in the room before.

In order to complete the time-limited task given by the blackboard this time, Shang Yan can be regarded as gambling with his life, betting that the peace charm given by the blackboard is really useful, and he can really keep himself safe.

According to the map, coupled with his own speculation, Shang Yan soon came to the mountainside of this big mountain.

This place is a sloping grassy hillside, there are no dense plants nearby, the visual range is very wide, and at the same time, the bright moon in the sky is shining, and the bright moonlight is swaying on the hillside, so that Shang Yan can see the road under his feet even if he turns off the flashlight.

Looking into the distance, there is another large mountain on the other side of the mountain, and the valley between the two mountains is where the nameless corpse is.

However, at this time, Shang Yan's heart suddenly became worried.

Since it is a valley, the area is naturally not small, how can I successfully find the location of a corpse in the valley now? It's like finding a needle in a haystack.

However, since he has come, Shang Yan naturally has no reason to give up, if he can complete this task and obtain a skill bag again, then his personal strength will increase.

If you are lucky and can get some essential techniques for industry insiders such as palm thunder and exorcism, then Shang Yan's life safety will be more guaranteed.

Walk down the hill in an S-shaped route, after all, the terrain here is still quite high, and if you don't step on it, you will be finished if you roll down the whole person.

The Qingniu Valley next to Qingyang Mountain is a must-choose place for the townspeople of Dongmu Town to go out to herd sheep more than ten years ago, and the growth of grass here is still very dense, and it is not very far from Dongmu Town.

However, as the times change, the conditions of every family are getting better and better, and life is getting richer and richer, no one is willing to spend time raising sheep and herding sheep, so this green cow valley has become unpopular.

Syllable!

Accidentally stepping on a dead wood branch, and suddenly the sound of a broken wood branch sounded in this silent environment, Shang Yan glanced around awkwardly, and only after making sure that there were no wild beasts in this vicinity, did he dare to continue walking forward.

Deep in the mountain range where Qingyang Mountain is located is a primeval forest, a place that has not been touched by humans at all, and it is very normal for fierce beasts to thrive in it.

There have been many cases in Dongmu Town, where tigers, wild boars, and black bears have run out of Qingyang Mountain and injured people, and all of them were killed on the spot by the police from the police station who rushed to the police station after hearing the news.

Although the chance of encountering a wild beast near Qingyang Mountain was very small, Shang Yan also had to be cautious, after all, with his body, if he really encountered a beast, he would not be an opponent of the beast at all.

Probably because it is sandwiched between two mountains, it is difficult to be exposed to the sun on weekdays, and the Qingniu Valley is a little cold at this time, and there is a white mist visible to the naked eye floating around the valley, which affects people's vision.

Xia Cheng immediately clicked on his mobile phone and enlarged the map, the red cross representing the target was located in the middle of the valley, and if you looked closely, you could find that the distance between the left and right sides of the red cross and the mouth of the valley on both sides was equal.

In other words, as long as he could grasp the middle of this distance, Shang Yan could successfully find the location of the nameless corpse.

However...... How could this be done, Shang Yan had no measuring tools on his body, and he had no professional measurement technology, and it was tantamount to a dream to know where the middle point of this valley was.

"It's a two-star mission, and the difficulty is obviously a lot higher than the previous one-star mission." Shang Yan couldn't help but sigh, and then walked towards the middle of the valley with the mentality of trying his luck.

In the early hours of the night, the eyes were either dense white fog or deep pitch black, and Shang Yan's right hand holding the flashlight couldn't help but tremble slightly.

After walking more than 100 meters further, a bulging ground bag suddenly appeared in Shang Yan's eyes, this ground bag was obviously a product of recent days, and the traces of ground breaking were very obvious.
