Chapter 335: Leech River
When night fell, I don't know when a layer of fog rose in the barren forest, enveloping the entire barren forest, even with Mu Yi's mental strength, he could only see the scenery within three zhang clearly, and at the same time, there were various sounds everywhere in the barren forest.
There are insects moaning, beasts roaring, and even voices with desperation, in short, it is creepy.
Nian Nu'er, who was not afraid of heaven and earth, also simply hid in the bamboo of the years at this time, and as for Li Cripple, his face was also full of solemnity, only the big slave and the old man, his face was expressionless, and there was no trace of fear on his face.
"You can go." Mu Yi's body flashed, appeared in front of Li Cripple, and said directly, just now he moved forward alone, and sure enough, there were no more gold-swallowing ants, but this barren forest was a little more dangerous than during the day, even along the same road, just now he also encountered several attacks, all of which were all kinds of poisonous insects and poisonous snakes.
"Yes!" Li Cripple immediately said that since Mu Yi is the master, no matter what decision he makes, he can only obey.
After taking Li Cripple's detoxification pill, several people set off again, although the sky was dark and the fog was heavy, and they couldn't see anything clearly, but fortunately, Mu Yi's mental power could make him know it within three zhang, and he didn't have to worry about getting lost, as long as he followed the direction indicated on the map.
The group soon passed by the place where the gold-swallowing ants had walked during the day, where everything was still completely dead, there was no life, only all kinds of trees and plants were still undisturbed.
"Master, according to the records, there are countless ferocious horses and turtles living in this river, and as long as a drop of blood can become a disaster, so when crossing the river, it is best to be careful."
At this time, Mu Yi and his party stood next to a big river, because the fog was filled, so they couldn't see how wide the river was, but according to what Li Lame said, this big river was more than ten zhang wide, and there lived in it a ferocious creature, horses and turtles, which were the best at sucking human blood.
Back then, Lin Xi led the army, and he suffered heavy losses just in front of this river, so Li Cripple would give a reminder.
"Oh, can't you see blood?" Mu Yi pondered for a while, and nodded, the horse turtle is also called a leech, for its habits, Mu Yi still understands, but the leeches in this river are particularly ferocious at the moment, if it is not necessary, it will naturally not be provoked.
And ten zhang is really not a problem for Mu Yi, but it is a little difficult for the big slave and the old way, and even Li Cripple, if he crosses the river with a few people, it is difficult to cross ten zhang at once.
"How did you plan to cross the river?" Mu Yi looked at Li Cripple and asked.
"Back to the master, the subordinates originally planned to throw wood into the river, and then borrow the wood to pass through, but now there is a heavy fog, and the subordinates are not even more than a zhang as far as the eye can see, so this method of throwing wood is difficult to succeed." Li Cripple shook his head and said with a bitter face.
Originally, his plan was to pass the day, who would have thought that this time he would be so unlucky, he actually ran into the gold-swallowing ant, and he could only rush at the most dangerous night, so now, he has nothing to do.
"Well, it's okay, you cut down a few trees first, and I'll take you across the river later." Mu Yi nodded and said, at the moment, only he can take a few people across the river without delaying time.
Li Cripple had long understood Mu Yi's strength, and when he heard Mu Yi's words, he naturally put his mind at ease, and went directly to the side to start cutting down trees, and Mu Yi had been looking at the river, his consciousness originally wanted to invade the river, but then he found that the river had a strong bad luck and the ability to infect his consciousness and mind, so he had to dispel this idea.
Although the river was calm at the moment, Mu Yi also felt the danger of this big river, and the closer he got closer, the hairs on his body would stand up gently, so he didn't dare to be careless.
After Li Cripple chopped a few pieces of wood, Mu Yi kicked one of the pieces of wood into the water with a kick, and in an instant, the water splashed and made a huge noise.
I saw that there were countless small black shadows in the river all of a sudden, gathering towards the log, just a few breaths, the place where the wood entered the water was covered with dense and small things, both ends were like fine needles, firmly lying on the wood, the number of them, Mu Yi was also numb for a while.
This was only a small area, it was hard to imagine how many leeches there were in such a large river, and he even wondered if there were any other creatures in the river besides leeches.
Fortunately, these things can't go ashore, otherwise they are even more terrifying than gold-swallowing ants.
Mu Yi didn't speak, and threw a piece of wood farther away, because he couldn't see the scene three zhang away, so he could only rely on listening to the sound to identify the position.
"Li Ji, I'll take you over first." After Mu Yi finished speaking, he grabbed Li Cripple's shoulder, shook his body, and had stepped on the first log, and after seeing the other wood clearly, his body had suddenly moved over, and then repeated the act, Mu Yi had already crossed the river with Li Cripple.
According to his calculations, the river was almost twelve zhang wide, and it was still the narrowest place, the widest part, even dozens of zhang, but strangely, the river did not seem to flow, so it turned black over time, and it was strongly toxic.
"Be careful, master."
Just when Mu Yi and Li Cripple had just crossed the river and arrived on the other side, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of Mu Yi, but with his strength, it was too late to intercept at this time, so he could only remind him.
At this time, I saw Mu Yi flick his fingers unhurriedly, and the black shadow suddenly flew back at a faster speed, crashing into a tree, and with a click, the black shadow sank into the trunk of the tree by an inch, and there was no movement.
I don't know what this black shadow is, it looks weird, a bit like a snake, but it is only the length of a finger, and when it opens its mouth, the fine teeth, even if it are punched into the trunk of the tree, look undamaged and extremely tough.
"Well, you're careful here." After Mu Yi finished speaking, his body disappeared in a flash.
As soon as Mu Yi left, Li Cripple took out a paper bag from his arms, and then pinched it hard, the paper bag was suddenly shattered, and a white powder was in three places inside, this white powder was a little pungent, and then spread out with the palm wind between Li Cripple's palms, and floated around for several zhang.
At this point, Li Cripple breathed a sigh of relief, along the way, thanks to his insect repellent powder, he saved a lot of trouble, and now he is alone here, and he does not have the strength of Mu Yi, so he can only be cautious.
However, he didn't wait long, Mu Yi had already come over with a figure, it was Lao Dao.
Then, Mu Yi left again, but compared to the first two times, when he came over for the third time, he was a little embarrassed, Li Cripple couldn't see what was happening in the river on this side of the river, but he heard a loud noise, and then there were water droplets splashing on this side, fortunately he hid behind a tree and did not suffer.
"Hmph, look for death!"
Immediately afterwards, there were two more figures on the riverbank, it was Mu Yi and the big slave, but at this moment Mu Yi was obviously angry on his face, after he put the big slave down, he turned to look at the river, clenched his fist and fell hard.
"Boom!"
There was another loud bang, and Li Cripple couldn't see what Mu Yi was fighting with, but he could feel that there was a terrifying aura there, faintly, a black shadow flashed, and then there was another sound in the river, splashing countless black droplets.
Mu Yi always stood by the river, and in the face of the water droplets in the sky, he only waved his right hand, and suddenly a strong wind swept through, sweeping all the water droplets down, and none of them could fall on his body.
Then, Mu Yi turned around, his face was just indifferent.
"Master, just now?" Li Cripple couldn't help but ask, thinking of the terrifying aura just now, if it was him, I am afraid that he would not be able to stand steadily, but Mu Yi was able to repel it with one punch.
"It's just a leech that has become a sperm, and its strength is barely strong, if it weren't for the fear of causing more trouble, how could it be allowed to escape." Mu Yi said lightly, just now when he was about to come over with the big slave, the leech suddenly sneaked attacked, because with the big slave, plus there was nowhere to borrow strength, he could only escape first, but then the punch could be regarded as revenge, after all, although the leech was very strong, it was only equivalent to six grades, and it was not taken into his eyes.
Li lame smiled reluctantly, but he didn't doubt Mu Yi's words.
"Master, crossing this big river can be regarded as entering the deepest part of the barren forest, I'm afraid it won't take long to reach the place where the two corpses are refined, as long as you cross there, it will be the battlefield where Lin Xi's army was buried." Li Cripple said.
"Okay, let's go." Mu Yi said directly.
Then the group continued to move forward, the danger in this depth is really far better than the outside, not to mention one step at a time, but on average, it is almost impossible to walk ten steps to encounter an attack, and those poisonous insects are not afraid of death, and later, even the insect repellent powder of Li Cripple is not very effective.
Those poisonous insects are like sharks that smell fish, and they are endless.
If there is only Mu Yi alone, it will be fine, no matter how powerful the poisonous insects are, they will not want to hurt him in the slightest, but there is also Li Cripple behind him, Lao Dao, big slaves, especially big slaves, don't look at the strength is far superior to Li Cripple, but there is almost nothing to do in the face of these poisonous insects, his strength is indeed very strong, but the most powerful thing about those poisonous insects is speed and toxins.
So Mu Yi has most of his energy on a few people, but despite this, it is inevitable that some people can't take care of it, and when everyone comes to a wide place, the big slave has been bitten several times, fortunately, the toxin is not too powerful, and the detoxification pill prepared by Li Cripple is safe and sound.
As for Lao Dao, he is not afraid of these poisonous insects, and even the vast majority of poisonous insects avoid him, those dead gases, even if they are poisonous insects, they are not willing to provoke, maybe they are dead people.
"Master, we should have already stepped into the territory of those two refining corpses, after so many years, no one knows if the two refining corpses have broken through, so please be careful."
The so-called site of corpse refining is actually a small barren slope, with rocks standing horizontally, a dead silence, without any plants, and when you get here, the fog dissipates as if it does not exist, and at the same time, a bright moon in the sky illuminates this place.
