Chapter Twenty-Four: The Search in Thin Knife Ridge

Master You and the three of them turned into another road and headed south. This is the official road of a long time ago, and it was still very wide at the beginning, and as you walk, the road begins to become rough. Gradually, there were no traces of man-made and overgrown with weeds.

There were no carriages in the ranks, so it didn't affect the road much. Because they were afraid of stepping on the pit, the three of them couldn't help but slow down. Until the afternoon, the skyline was green and green, and needless to say, it was the edge of the unnamed forest.

The so-called Wangshan running dead horses seems to be very close, but in fact they are far away. The three of them had to wait until the mirror hung high before they reached the edge of the forest. In front of them was a mountain col.

The entrance to the place where they were going, right at the bottom of the valley. Master Tu took the lead and stopped, no matter how conceited they were, they didn't dare to walk through the forest at night. Fierce beast corpses are very active at night, and it is quite troublesome to accidentally touch them~ everything is based on the goal. So they decided to camp in the woods for one night and set off at dawn.

Before resting, they tied their horses and went on a routine inspection. Master You walked alone through the woods, looking up at the bright moon in the sky. On the day of the bright moon, the sky was cloudless, making it even brighter.

At this time, Master You suddenly realized that today was the reunion moon! The so-called reunion moon is the largest and roundest day of the year. With this meaning, people will go home to reunite with their families on this day, symbolizing reunion.

Master You looked up for a while, and involuntarily remembered You Wuxian, and a smile unconsciously hung on the corner of his mouth......

At this moment, you have no trace, just after dinner, a person stopped on the attic of Aofu and looked at it by the railing. That Ao Zhentian, together with Mrs. Ao and Lian'er, enjoyed the warmth of the family. Occasionally, a trace of laughter and laughter came into You Wuji's ears, which reminded him of his parents, and his heart couldn't help but throb faintly.

Suddenly, the figure of the master jumped in his mind, and a steady smile appeared on his face again. Although the time spent between the two is less than one-tenth of that of their parents, in fact, the two are like a family!

Crossing the courtyard wall of Aofu's house, I saw that under the moonlight, the lights of thousands of homes in Anhua City were peaceful and peaceful. I couldn't help but drift to the unnamed forest thousands of miles away...

Master You lowered his head to retract his thoughts, looked around, and when he was almost done, he decided to go back and meet with the other two.

It had rained in the forest before they came, and the ground was slippery, but Master You was able to move nimbly between the large roots and the messy rocks, and he was not affected in the slightest.

As he walked, Master You realized that something was wrong: because of the rain, the forest was filled with a musty and damp smell of decay, but there was an indescribable feeling in it. Forcing Master You to stop, he carefully sniffed the smell that remained in the air.

frowned slightly, and couldn't help blurting out: "Corpse monster?" followed the source of the smell and looked all the way to the past......

Master Jin and Master Tu also dispersed to inspect it, but they didn't find any problems, and they were on their way back to the meeting place. Leng Buding came from the other side with three rapid and regular rings: this is the code signal of all the masters' inspections, and hearing this sound indicates that the other accomplices must have discovered something.

It's much more effective than shouting, and it's not easy to provoke something unclean. The night was quiet, and although the sound was not loud, it was clearly transmitted far away.

Master You squatted on the ground, and after half an hour, he struck the back of the god-killing knife on the trunk of the tree beside him three times. After only three knocks, Master Jin and Master Tu rushed here one after the other and squatted down.

When the two of them arrived, Master You looked at them and pouted to the side. In fact, there is no need to remind them, the two of them have already noticed something strange: in the low-lying part of the woods on the side, ordinary people seem to be the same, but the three of them can see the difference.

Master Tu analyzed it, lowered his voice and said, "It's raining heavily, and the ground is a little waterlogged, so I can't see what it is." But there's nothing wrong with this smell, it must be a corpse!

Although they deliberately conceal their whereabouts, judging from the damage to the grass and branches, there must be quite a few of them! But what exactly caused them to go out on a large scale remains to be discussed. What do you think, two?"

Master Jin thought for a while: "If it's a demon corpse, then things will be much easier." But in this case, it seems that the situation is not so simple! the deeds show that they are coming in the way we came, but we did not find anything wrong when we came. This matter is a bit tricky~ Master You gave me an idea?"

Master You couldn't help but think of the group of beast corpses he had encountered in this unnamed forest before, and he was faintly afraid. Remembering the messenger he met on the road, he looked at the bright moon in the round sky, and suddenly felt a little uneasy.

He waved his hand at the moment: "I don't know what their purpose is, so we'd better not act rashly." If the hordes of corpses are bent on hiding, we won't be able to find them. Instead of asking for trouble, it's better to leave it alone for the time being, and let's do our business!"

The other two thought about it and felt that it was all over the place. After the three of them finished discussing, they quietly retreated. I found another place that seemed safe, decided to take a vigil shift, and went to rest...

Until dawn on the second day, nothing happened, and the three of them breathed a sigh of relief and continued to hurry.

The deeper you go into the forest, the more difficult the road becomes, and on several occasions the horses have had to take a detour because of the thorny path. In this way, it slows down the speed. It was supposed to be in advance, but in the end it was half a day slower. It wasn't until the third day after departing from Anhua City that we arrived near our destination at noon.

From afar, I saw the majestic mountains on the edge of the skyline: from west to east, the mountains are like a creeping dragon, and the main peak "dragon head" is even more towering into the clouds.

There is the Thin Knife Ridge, which is like a sharp blade, isolating the unnamed forest from the Panhu forest, which is a natural danger that is difficult for manpower to reach.

The three of them paused to recuperate and discuss what to do next. Several sets of plans were introduced, but they were all rejected one by one.

This is a small piece of land on the map. But if you really put it in the actual location, the search range can reach a radius of dozens of miles! The three of them just have no direction to look for it, I'm afraid the efficiency is too low......

In the end, the three of them came up with a compromise solution: first, divide the circled place on the map into three pieces, starting with the most recent one, and the three of them acted separately to quickly search for one side. If you find any clues, don't dig deeper, immediately turn back to the original point, wait for the other two to gather and then move forward together, if none of the three find it, then go straight to the center of the next piece and continue to disperse and search......

In this way, it saves a lot of time and the effect is much better. Of course, if all the searches are completed and nothing is found, it should be a matter of luck, and in the end there will be no choice but to go home.

Just do it, the three of them no longer hesitated, said to each other to be careful, and went separately to search~

After an hour and a half, the three of them returned to the starting point one after another, all shaking their heads to indicate that they had found nothing. So they immediately set off for the next location, and when they got to the next place, they decided on their own location and began to search again.

This time it was a little longer, and it was a full two hours before Master Tu was the last to arrive. Master You and Master Jin have been waiting for a long time, but they have not gained anything, but Master Tu said solemnly: "I encountered a walking corpse, and I removed it casually, and then carefully searched the vicinity, but I didn't find any useful clues." But my instinct is that there's a good chance that a corpse will be found in one last place!"

It's better to have a glimmer of discovery than nothing. The three of them lifted their spirits and continued on their way.

At this time, it was already very close to Bodao Ridge, and the cliffs were hundreds of zhang high, and it seemed that they could touch it with their hands. Compared with the Monkey Cliff, the magnificence here is indescribable. It was like a giant wall, like two worlds completely separated from the unnamed forest on the other side of the mountain.

The three of them got together, and Master Tu spoke first: "The next thing is the key, if you don't want to go home empty-handed, everyone should try to open up the bright spots and search carefully."

Also, as mentioned in Anhua City, there is a fierce beast 'Dendrobium'. They are the unique products of Thin Knife Ridge, and they are even more tricky than the beast corpses!

There is still more than an hour left, and it will be completely dark, so everyone should try to get things in order before it gets dark. Assuming that there is no gain, we will quickly return to this place and withdraw overnight! If there is no objection, we will at once split up!"

Master You and Master Jin nodded solemnly, and they each chose their own directions and set off. This time, the search method was slightly changed, Master You was responsible for the left and right sides of the road he came, while Master Jin and Master Tu were responsible for widening in the direction of Bodaoling.

Since the circle has shrunk so much, as long as you are careful, there will always be gains. Master You rode alone through the thorny woods, and his body was pulled by the branches.

In fact, the other two are not much better, this kind of search for uncertain targets is very physically exhausting, and the three of them are already exhausted.

After walking for a while, Master You smelled the familiar breath again, and immediately looked at the vicinity. It's okay not to look at it, but at a glance, I really found some clues: there are traces of "artificiality" everywhere here, and it seems that a large group of people have been stationed here before. And it's definitely not a living person! It is not an exaggeration to describe it as "a group of demons dancing".

What is the matter with such a large lineup? But the traces have been washed away by the rain, and it is obviously not something that happened in the past two days. Could it be that somewhere, something big is really going to happen?

Master You faintly felt bad in his heart, and the previous trace of uneasiness reappeared. After patrolling around the area, I made sure that I didn't find any other useful clues, and I quickly returned home.

It's only a matter of more than half an hour. Master You returned to the meeting place, and after waiting for a long time, he saw Master Jin's embarrassed figure and stumbled out of the bushes.

When Master Jin saw that it was Master You, he couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, but he still whispered insults in his mouth: "It's grandma's, it's really back! As soon as it got close to the mountain wall, I bumped into the dendrobium, and there was more than one! Fortunately, grandpa, I reacted quickly and left quickly, if I got entangled with them, I couldn't guarantee that I would have to explain it here tonight! Its grandmother's ......"

The former saw that the latter was stubborn, but his own image was really a little unbearable for him: his clothes were in tatters, and even his face was blue and purple... I thought I was in a hurry to escape, and I accidentally tripped over the wrong branches!

At the moment, it was stunned and funny. But I was able to escape with my life, and I was not afraid of running out of firewood. Master You just wanted to say something, but he saw a commotion in the woods next to him, and Master Tu crashed out from between the bushes.

As soon as he saw that both of them were there, he immediately suppressed the faint excitement: "The spirit corpse has appeared! And there is more than one!"
