Chapter Fifty-Six: Stepping on a Mine
Passing through a forest and turning over a hillside, a thunderclap suddenly sounded in the dark sky, and a miserable white lightning illuminated the dense forest, as if the scythe of death had slashed, the lightning disappeared, the dense forest returned to darkness, and the rustle of the leaves in the wind increased a lot, as if the devil was whispering, and the invisible pressure shrouded it.
In this pitch-black forest, there is an unspeakable horror that is absolutely unbearable for the faint of heart, but for Ji Feng, he only frowned slightly, because suddenly a few drops of rain fell, Ji Feng knew that the rainforest had a lot of rainfall in this season, which would more or less bring him some trouble on his way.
Ji Feng looked up at the sky, there was a "sting", and another snow-white lightning exploded in the sky, dispelling the endless darkness around him, the whole sky was as bright as day, it looked extremely weird, he continued to lower his head and continued to hurry.
Soon the heavy rain directly turned into a torrential rain, Ji Feng continued to move forward in the rain, and walked like this for half the night, and finally the fish belly white floated in the east, and a bright light dispersed the darkness, bringing a little light to this dark rain world, and a little more vitality, the rainstorm fell in the middle of the night, and gradually became smaller, and when the sky was bright, it stopped directly.
Braving the torrential rain in the middle of the night in the dense forest, even Ji Feng felt a little tired, found a big stone to sit down, took out the dry food and mineral water from the drug dealer to eat and drink, there was no taste, but as long as he could eat enough to recover his strength.
Looking at the dense forest in front of the mist, a vast area, a big bird occasionally drilled out of the green leaves, and flew away with a strange cry, although the rainstorm stopped, but the drizzle continued, and it seemed that it would not stop for a while.
After resting for half an hour, Ji Feng continued to hurry, and climbed over a mountain, until noon, the rain stopped, the sun came out, the warm sunlight sprinkled on the vast forest, washed clean by the rain on the green leaves, a drop of water reflected the sun, soon rolled down from the leaves, fell on the ground and disappeared, the sunlight penetrated the leaves and fell to the ground, mottled and dotted, golden like butterflies dancing, beautiful, light, and the colorful beams in the air were even more charming.
The forest after the rainstorm is beautiful, everything is fresh and green, the air has become much fresher, the breeze is gentle, and it is refreshing, but Ji Feng is not in the mood to enjoy this beautiful scenery, but frowns, because he found that he could not find the body of the indigenous person who was robbed of Jinqi by Zhang Guojin, let alone the corpse.
At this time, Ji Feng came to a hill, which was surrounded by tall trees and a dense canopy, and there was a small river under the hill. According to Zhang Guojin's memory, the corpse was still on the riverside by him, of course Ji Feng would not expect the corpse to be still there, he just thought that the beast had eaten the meat and could leave some bones. He had even figured out a secret method that relied on the ghost baby, and he could get a breath through the bones, and trace the places the bones had visited all the way before his death. It's a pity that not even a single finger bone was left for him.
In addition, Ji Feng found that the appearance of this place was a little different from what Zhang Guojin remembered. The biggest difference is that there is an extra wooden house on the hillside across the river, which looks like a village, and the number of people is no less than one or two thousand. Moreover, Ji Feng had a faint feeling that there was something very important to him in this village, or that there was someone or object that attracted him. He had to go in and take a look.
Standing on a big tree, from a distance, Ji Feng saw a lot of cooking smoke curling up into the air in the village, mixing with the water mist in mid-air, and it was difficult to distinguish which was light smoke and which was water mist.
There were many figures in the village, and two heavily armed soldiers stood at the door, patrolling the surroundings vigilantly. This made him not dare to act rashly, and he was not afraid of dozens, even a hundred or so ordinary militants, but one or two thousand was completely different, and if he was slightly negligent and fell into the encirclement of the other party, it was also a dead end.
Ji Feng jumped off the big tree and walked forward, he planned to walk in a little bit and further investigate the situation in this village.
A sharp eagle's cry sounded in the sky, and Ji Feng looked up to see that a huge mountain eagle swept through the sky, rushing towards the dense forest of towering peaks in front of him, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Ji Feng stopped, because he vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, and his divine sense didn't find any clues.
In the vast forest, the leaves are as green as the sea, undulating with the wind, from time to time there are birds out of the woods, flying into the sky with a strange cry, chasing and frolicking in the air for a while, and then throwing themselves into the green woods, disappearing, and a few strange beast roars add a bit of mystery and horror to this vibrant forest.
All this looked normal, four or five minutes later, Ji Feng still didn't find anything wrong, and continued to walk forward, but his expression became more and more vigilant, his divine sense covered ten meters around his body, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he was swept around, and the true yuan in his body was agitated, ready to use the wind blade technique or the wind resistance technique at any time.
It's just that as he continued to move forward, the feeling of uneasiness in Ji Feng's mind became stronger, but what made Ji Feng's expression more and more solemn was that he never knew what the source of this uneasiness was.
Because of its proximity to the river, there is a wide field of vision in front of and around it, and at a glance, it is clear that there is no human figure at all, let alone an ambush. Could it be that he met a third-rank demon general or a monk above the foundation building realm, who performed the stealth technique, so he couldn't see it?
With a movement in his heart, the ghost baby came out of the center of his eyebrows and floated above Ji Feng's head. The ghost baby has no eyes and can't see, but he has a special sense of any life breath, which is difficult to shield even with stealth techniques. Information from the ghost baby revealed that there were no animals around.
Click, a sound that normal humans couldn't hear at all came into Ji Feng's ears, and at the same time, the feeling of uneasiness was already intense.
This strong feeling made Ji Feng pause, motionless, and look at his feet, because the almost inaudible clicking sound just now came from under his feet.
Divine Sense passed through the surface, and Ji Feng's face changed—he stepped on a mine, and it looked like it should be quite powerful.
Ji Feng found that he had made a common-sense mistake, and his divine sense had not been able to probe below the ground.
Although Ji Feng came into contact with a mine for the first time, he also knew that he must not let his feet move again at this time, otherwise the mine would explode in an instant. He estimated that even if he used the Wind Resisting Technique, he would not be able to keep himself intact, and he might even be seriously injured.
