In the mountains and forests, a group of people, under the watchful care of several guards with knives, pulled a big tree that had been cut down with a rope and let it fall in the designated direction.

Soon, with the sound of the crackling of fresh wood, the tree fell.

Immediately the sound of people cheering rang out, but not long after the joy was heard, one of them screamed and pointed in horror at a tall figure in the dense forest.

"Mountain jackal, mountain jackal is coming!"

Everyone looked, but saw several mountain jackals three or four meters high shuttling through the forest, approaching here.

"Don't panic!" one of the guards shouted as he drew his sword and led the man to the crowd.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of heavy footsteps ahead, and a white jackal as tall as a bungalow came out and went straight to the guards, who were so frightened that they stayed where they were, not daring to move. The mountain jackal grinned, slightly baring its huge canine teeth, and let out a low roar.

"Ignorant humans, from now on this will be my Mona's territory, and you will not be allowed to set foot again. ”

As he spoke, the mountain jackal suddenly roared and waved its claws towards the guards. Then several screams rang out, reverberating through the deep mountain forest and through the valley......

Small theater.

"Now, big brother, if you can fly, what do you want to do?" On the winding mountain path, Ziyuan looked at the empty and green Grand Canyon beside him, stretched out his arms, and under the faint morning light, facing the whirring spring breeze, he imagined himself as a mountain eagle, and did gliding movements with an intoxicated face.

"Wait!" Nano stopped suddenly, closed his eyes, and made a look of hard thought.

"What's wrong?"

"I know what you're going to do. Nano suddenly opened his eyes and said.

"Really?" Ziyuan was slightly startled, and looked at Na Wu with some expectation.

"If you can fly, you can't help but turn into an ostrich, from the top of this hillside, spread its wings, jump downward, and float in the canyon by the mountain wind. At this time, two female swans flew overhead. So, you chirp twice, and fly quickly towards the she-swan, "Let the handsome and dashing ostrich go over and tease you ignorant and innocent little girls." ’”

"Why ostriches? Then again, ostriches can't fly at all. And why am I going to play with the she-swan? ”

"Don't interject! The reason why you fly is not just as simple as being like an ostrich, shuttling between heaven and earth, and flirting with the female swan. ”

"It's all said that ostriches can't fly. Can't you change the bird?" Ziyuan already had three black lines hanging on his forehead, grinning, slightly revealing a row of fangs, very unhappy.

But Nano ignored Ziyuan and continued: "'Ah, spring breeze, earth! Let me show you the true strength of this ostrich. Look, this magical power, hahaha...... 'I saw you stretch your arms, fly towards the she-swan at great speed, and then learn to be an ostrich, and let out a long song, and suddenly ...... , piaji, just hear the sound of squeezing cream, and then, you see a white unidentified object splash out from behind you, towards the green forest in the valley. ——,A long time ago, I wondered what it would be like to be in the air and excrete waste like an ostrich. Try it today, it's really refreshing and refreshing! She-swans, I'm coming! quack quack quack......'"

"Name—none—"

Ziyuan's eyes showed a fierce light, and he opened his mouth, revealing his sharp fangs, looking at Na Wu like a demon.

Na Wu was startled, fell to the ground, and looked up at the tall Ziyuan in fear.

"No! I was wrong!"

Suddenly, Zi Yuan pulled out the demon knife and slashed at Ming Wu madly.

"Ahh

With screams and splashes of blood, Nano fell to the ground, his whole body was covered by mosaics, and he died miserably!

So, the whole drama ends!

......

Back to the topic, Ziyuan just punched Mingwu unhappily and complained a few words.

The two continued along the mountain road.

At this time, it was half a month after the two of them left Zhishui Town, and the two came to the country of Gulou, and not far ahead, it was the Sword Casting Immortal Mountain in the Xianfeng Mountain Area.

"What kind of experience is that in the sky?" asked Nano seriously.

"Don't ask me, okay? Ziyuan returned unhappily.

While the two were talking, they turned along the mountain road and came to the back of the mountain. I saw ahead, behind the heavy mountain, a peak that reached into the sky stood proudly. On a sunny day, I couldn't see the peak clearly.

At the bottom of the peak, there is a base that is many times larger than the ordinary mountains around it, and the upper part of the mountainside, the lower part of the mountainside, where it exceeds the ordinary peak, is shrouded in a cloud of mist, and the white clouds flutter on the mountainside, and continue to go up, and the peak is again hidden in the fog.

At this moment, they were still far away from the peak, and they couldn't see the details clearly, but the two of them looked up at the peak, as if they were looking at a thousand-story pagoda from zero distance.

"Oh, Ziyuan, look, look, this peak is so high!" Nano exclaimed, looking at the peak ahead.

"Isn't it ordinary?" Ziyuan was unusual, and he didn't care about it.

"How it feels, we've switched roles. Nano whispered to himself.

"Ahh

While the two were talking, a woman's scream was heard.

The two followed the sound and looked down the mountain, only to see a woman with a bamboo basket on her back being stared at by a wild boar more than a man tall in the col a hundred meters deep below.

The wild boar's eyes were red, its snort was heavy, and the brown hair on its back stood on end, as if it had been stimulated by something, and it was very angry.

At this moment, the woman had fallen to the ground in fright, and saw that she was about to be stabbed with her fangs by the wild boar that rushed over, at this time, Nano quickly jumped down, and her figure flashed in the dense forest on the hillside, and after a while, she blocked in front of the woman, and then punched the boar that pounced and flew out.

"Are you alright?"

"No, it's fine. The woman seemed to have some difficulty believing what had just happened, and after calming down a little, she couldn't help but look at Na Wu, between her eyebrows, a little surprised, and revealed some expectations.

Then, the woman burst out laughing, her voice was high, and she had the hearty personality of a mountain woman.

"You're amazing!" the woman said with a smile.

"What are you doing here?"

The woman put away her smile and her face became serious, "Take medicine." ”

"Herbs?"

The woman took out the green blades of grass from the basket, "Many people in the village are suffering from pneumoconiosis, so pick some kale seeds to relieve the pain." ”

In this big mountain, the air is fresh, how can you get pneumoconiosis, the name is a little puzzling.

Under the woman's introduction, Ming Wucai learned that the woman's name was Ah Xing, and she was from the nearby Xiaowo Village, which was a village where iron was smelted and swords were cast. But ten years ago, it was still a farming village, and one day a group of people suddenly came to say that they could help the villagers live a prosperous life. It is to teach everyone to make iron and forge swords, although the old people in the village are against it, but most of the young people agree with it.

"What are you doing here?" the woman asked.

The two of them told the story of finding someone.

The woman thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't seem to be reflected, but I can take you to ask other people in the village." ”

So, the two followed the woman to Xiaowo Village. The village is built on top of a gentle hill, surrounded by stone walls and sharpened logs, and there is a lake in the valley below the village. It is said that streams from other places were brought in for the purpose of iron smelting, and it used to be a fertile field. Three pillars of green smoke could be seen rising from the village from a long distance, and the vegetation on the hills near the village was noticeably much thinner than elsewhere.

In the village, on the log scout tower, and at the entrance of each workshop, there will be several guards with knives, all dressed in uniform black tunics. Before entering the village, Nano and Ziyuan were also checked by the guards guarding the door. Under Ah Xing's explanation, he was allowed to enter the village.

"These are the people who made the village what it is, watch out for them. The woman introduced the guards to the two with a look of disgust on her face.

Everywhere in the village, there were working villagers, most of whom looked sturdy, with red-skinned skin, white turbans, and beads of sweat on their bodies.

Under the leadership of the woman, the two visited many people in the village, but none of them knew.

Only an old man who was seriously ill and bedridden seemed to have some impressions, saying that he had seen two swordsmen compete ten years ago. However, the old man can't remember it clearly, so he should recall it carefully.

After taking a turn around the village, it was not too early. At the invitation of the villagers, the two decided to stay here for one night, just in time for the old man to think about it.

At nightfall, Nano and Ziyuan go to visit the village chief here.

The village chief's name is Wen Ji, a man in his fifties who was sent by Gu Louguo to guide the village in production ten years ago.

Unlike the simple and crude clothes of other people in the village, Wen Ji's dress has a noble temperament, coupled with his delicate appearance, although he has some gray hair, he also looks a little cultivated. Moreover, seeing Na Wu and Ziyuan, Wen Ji was also very kind.

In the room, there was also a man in his thirties, with a majestic and rugged appearance, and that person's name was Wan Xiong, who was the captain of the guard here.

Due to the destruction of the mountains and forests, the village is often attacked by nearby beasts, so there will be many guards.

In the evening, after a feast with the villagers, the two went to rest. At night, only the sound of forging in the village is heard, and the sound of iron smelting never stops.

Na Wu slept like a dead man as usual, but Zi Yuan had some difficulty sleeping.

In the middle of the night, I heard the sound of villagers tapping on the tie to warn......

The next day, when the two woke up, they realized that a mountain jackal had attacked last night, took the two villagers away, and headed towards the west mountain.
