After Ye Hao explained to Mingyue, he let him alone and quietly walked to the small mountain pass.

Ye Hao himself, on the other hand, hid his body behind a big tree, monitoring Mingyue's every move.

Mingyue tiptoed to the small mountain pass, but as soon as he walked forward a few dozen meters away, he suddenly heard a dense and slight clicking sound around him.

Immediately after, dozens of black crossbow arrows, whistling, shot out of the dense forest.

"Nest grass!"

Mingyue exclaimed in surprise and retreated sharply, trying to avoid the formidable crossbow arrows.

However, there were too many crossbow arrows, and Mingyue tried her best, but she still couldn't avoid all the crossbow arrows, and as a result, she was pierced into her body by two crossbow arrows that shot quickly.

"Ah~~~"

Mingyue screamed and fell to the ground.

One crossbow shot into his thigh, and the other into his left arm shoulder. Although the two bolts failed to kill him, they also left him seriously injured.

Ye Hao looked at it from behind and gasped.

It seems that he was right to let Mingyue explore the way first, otherwise, he might have been the one who was ambushed just now.

At the col of the hill, soon there was a sound of footsteps, and a voice shouted,

"Who's there?!"

Mingyue, who fell to the ground and groaned, heard that the voice was the breeze, and hurriedly struggled to shout,

"Senior brother, it's me!"

"Mingyue?!"

The voice screamed in dismay.

Soon, Qingfeng ran from the col into the dense forest and saw the bright moon lying on the ground.

His face changed and he asked,

"Mingyue, why did you come in from behind?"

"Senior brother, I was in a hurry to see Master, but I got lost in the mountains and forests, and somehow, I turned here!"

Mingyue said with severe pain.

This is the rhetoric he thought of in advance, that is, he is afraid that if he is discovered by the Black Wind Dao Chief, he will have an explanation.

"Lost?"

Qingfeng glanced suspiciously at the bright moon on the ground, and then glanced at the dense forest around him.

"Senior brother, come and save me, I was shot by a crossbow arrow!"

Mingyue's face turned pale, and a cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Qingfeng didn't come over immediately, but looked around to confirm that there was no abnormality, and then walked to Mingyue's side.

He pulled out the two crossbow arrows that shot Mingyue one after another, and then fed Mingyue a white pill.

After Mingyue took the pill, the bleeding from the wound stopped, and her complexion recovered a lot.

At this time, Qingfeng noticed that Mingyue's jaw was crooked, and several teeth were missing.

"Mingyue, what's going on with your mouth?"

Qingfeng asked suspiciously.

Mingyue's face changed, but she quickly calmed down.

"Senior brother, when I was desperately dodging the crossbow arrows just now, I accidentally hit a stone and injured my mouth!"

"Grass, tell me about you, don't take the road ahead, you have to go around to the back, you have to let the master know, you have to be whipped hard!"

Qingfeng complained.

"Where's Master?"

"He was meditating and cultivating just now, but at this moment, he was probably also alarmed!"

"What are you doing here with a crossbow bolt mechanism, and you won't tell me in advance, I'll be seriously injured!"

"Master is afraid that you will be followed, so he won't let me tell you. In fact, there are more traps and ambushes in the mountain col, and the bows and crossbows in this dense forest are just to prevent Ye Hao from sneaking in at night, and they are used for vigilance!"

"To deal with a Ye Hao, as for making such a big formation?"

Mingyue deliberately set the words of Qingfeng.

"Don't you know, Master arranged these for the purpose of dealing with Ye Hao alone. Ye Hao is probably like us, he is also a disciple of an ancient sect of cultivation, and in order to prevent it, Master brought many fellow monks to attack, so he let us arrange a lot of mechanisms. ”

Qingfeng didn't have any suspicions about Mingyue, so he said it truthfully.

"Take me to the master, I'm afraid that if it's too late, he will whip me again!"

Mingyue endured the pain and struggled to get up from the ground.

"You better think about it, after meeting Master, how do you explain what happened when you came in from behind! Master, you don't know that person yet, and you are very suspicious!"

Qingfeng snorted coldly, didn't support Mingyue, and walked to the front by himself.

"Thank you, senior brother, for the reminder!"

Mingyue struggled and hurriedly chased after her.

"By the way, senior brother, where is the fat man I caught being held now?"

"What are you asking this for?!"

Qingfeng suddenly stopped, turned his head, and stared at Mingyue suspiciously.

"Oh, nothing, didn't you call me and ask me if I had caught the wrong person?

Mingyue said calmly.

"Hmph, look at him now, what's the use? Anyway, everyone has already been arrested!"

Qingfeng snorted coldly and walked forward again.

After Qingfeng and Mingyue left, Ye Hao slowly walked out from behind a big tree in the distance.

He listened to the conversation between Qingfeng and Mingyue just now.

Ye Hao felt that his plan might have to be adjusted.

He originally planned to let Mingyue sneak in quietly, and after finding out the whereabouts of the fat man, he rescued the fat man as quickly as possible.

But now it seems that not only did this plan encounter an accident at the beginning, but that Qingfeng had begun to suspect that Mingyue was coming.

Thinking of this, Ye Hao didn't go further into the mountain col, but jumped directly onto a big tree.

Qingfeng mentioned just now that in this mountain col, there are many traps and many ambushes. Although Ye Hao was not afraid of these ambushes, he didn't want to alarm the Black Wind Dao Leader too early, so as not to encounter accidents to the fat man in their hands.

Ye Hao was going to observe the situation first, and when he figured out where the fat man was being held, it would not be too late to make a move.

It would be great if Mingyue could get the news smoothly. If something goes wrong with Mingyue, he has to think of another plan to rescue the fat man.

Ye Hao came to the highest point of the big tree, hid his body in the branches and leaves, and looked into the mountain col.

The view from the top of the tree is very good, and almost half of the col can be seen.

Ye Hao saw that in the middle of the col, there was a thick wooden stake, and there was a dwarf wearing a Taoist robe, standing next to the stake, looking around vigilantly.

Qingfeng and Mingyue had already walked out of the dense forest and walked towards the dwarf Taoist who was standing in the middle of the col.

Because the location there was relatively far away, Ye Hao, in order to hear the conversation between them clearly, spent 2,000 points from the system mall and exchanged it for an "intermediate clairleaf" skill card.

In the past, Ye Hao had exchanged for a "Junior Clair" skill card, but he could only "listen to the wall", and the distance was more than 100 meters, or the wall in the middle was very thick, so he couldn't hear it clearly.

Now, after Ye Hao exchanged the "Intermediate Clairear", he could clearly hear any sound within a radius of five kilometers.
