Chapter 69: Into the Fog and Spotting the Deception

The four of them ate and drank happily until late, and saw that they could no longer find out any news, and everyone was also a little tired, so the four of them went back to their rooms to rest, but this time it was bitter for the two who were still waiting.

When the two saw that Liu Qi and the four of them not only had no intention of going to the Misty Forest, but also went upstairs to sleep, they couldn't help but panic.

"Big brother, what should we do, if we can't find four foundation building monks tomorrow, then our two lives will be in jeopardy,"

"No need to panic, let's talk about tomorrow's things tomorrow, the two of us should have a good rest now, keep an eye on these four people to see if they will go to the Wuhou Tomb," the person known as the eldest brother said calmly, but no matter how he suppressed it, he could still hear the trembling when he spoke, as if if Liu Qi and the others did not go to the Wuhou Tomb, something extremely terrible would happen to the two of them.

The other person had no choice, since the eldest brother had said so, it could only be so, and the two of them did not go to the hotel to rest, but meditated on the spot to recover.

On the second day, Liu Qi woke up from his sleep at the beginning of the sun, and after washing, he remembered the agreement with Ouyang Chen and the three of them yesterday, today they will go to the tomb of Marquis Wu to find out, if it is true, then they can naturally get some benefits, if it is fake, then strive to get out.

Liu Qi came to Ouyang Chen's room and knocked on the door, but no one answered in the room.

"Hey, Liu Qi, here and here," Liu Qi followed the voice and looked down, it turned out that Ouyang Chen and the three of them had already sat at the table in the hall and started eating, Liu Qi also hurriedly went down the stairs to the first floor and sat down next to the table.

"Ouyang, you're early enough," said Liu Qi casually picked up the idea on the table and ate a few bites,

"Haha, in fact, we haven't been down for a long time, and besides, we're going to explore the tomb of Marquis Wu today, and I'm still a little excited,"

"Hehe, yes, I feel okay, have you all eaten well?"

"Hey, in fact, these are things from the secular world, we don't have to rely on these anymore after we build the foundation, eating is just to pass the time and satisfy the appetite of the tongue, okay, since you are down, let's go,"

"Okay, then let's go to the misty forest and find out," said the four of them, leaving the restaurant at the same time, and walking down the street towards the entrance of the misty forest.

But none of the four of them noticed that in the dark, two pairs of eyes had been watching their movements, and when they saw them walking in the direction of the Misty Forest, one of them had a very surprised expression on his face,

"Big brother, they finally went to the Misty Forest, it seems that our lives have been saved,"

"Wait, don't worry, they don't necessarily go to the Misty Forest to see the tomb of Marquis Wu, let's follow them first, see the direction they are going, let's go," said the man beckoned, and the other hurriedly followed his footsteps, and soon the six of them disappeared into the crowd on the street.

"Hey," Liu Qi stopped suddenly,

"What's wrong Liu Qi, is there anything wrong?"

"Why do I always feel like there's a pair of eyes on the four of us? don't you feel it?"

"Haha, Liu Qi, there are so many people on the street, where is someone deliberately staring at us, are you too nervous and feel wrong, haha," Nalan Yu patted Liu Qi's shoulder and laughed, Liu Qi looked at Ouyang Chen, Ouyang Chen also shook his head and said that he didn't feel that someone was staring at them, Liu Qi shrugged,

"Nalan, you're right, I'm probably too nervous, let's keep going," After speaking, the four of them continued to walk towards the Misty Forest without delay.

Liu Qi's stop scared the two people behind him, but when they saw Liu Qi, they didn't have any suspicions, so they couldn't help but relax and continue to follow the four of them forward.

Soon Liu Qi and the four of them came to the outside of the Misty Forest, where Liu Qi felt that the fog was much larger than that of Misty Town, but the four of them all had strong spiritual sense to rely on, and these fogs were nothing.

The four of them continued to walk forward without delay, and they also knew that the two of them in the restaurant were talking about the southeast, so they marched towards the southeast.

The two people behind them were completely relieved when they saw Liu Qi and the direction they were traveling, they knew that Liu Qi and they must have believed their words and went to find the tomb of the Marquis of Wu, and the two of them happily continued to follow the footsteps of Liu Qi and the others.

Liu Qi and the four of them kept walking forward, and they hadn't found the tomb of Wuhou for a long time, not only that, but Liu Qi also found a very abnormal situation.

They didn't see any monks or beasts along the way, and Liu Qi couldn't help but stop thinking of this.

"Ouyang, don't you feel strange?"

"What's wrong, Liu Qi, what's so strange?"

"Isn't it strange that not only did we not see a single figure along the way, but we didn't even see a single beast, not even the lowest?"

Ouyang Chen couldn't help but be stunned after listening to Liu Qi's words, yes, it might be normal to say that you can't see people in this misty forest, but it's really a little strange that you don't even have a fierce beast.

But before Ouyang Chen could say anything, Liu Qi turned around and shouted behind him,

"You two, you guess you're tired after following us for so long, why don't you show up?"

After Liu Qi finished drinking, the other three hurriedly turned around but didn't find anyone.

"Hmph, it seems that I want to pull you out," Liu Qi said that a sword qi shot out in the direction of a big tree, only to see that the sword qi had not yet hit the big tree, and suddenly two people appeared, and those two people couldn't help but be very afraid after dodging Liu Qi's sword qi.

"Seniors spare their lives, seniors spare their lives," said one of them, kneeling down in front of Liu Qi,

"Say, why are you following us," At this time, Nalan Yu found that these two people were the ones who told the news of Wuhou's tomb in the restaurant, and couldn't help but be angry and pointed his sword at them and shouted,

"The seniors spare their lives, the little ones, the little ones are also forced to deceive the four seniors, please ask the seniors to spare the little ones," said the two of them, and they began to kowtow to Liu Qi,

Liu Qi stepped forward and pushed Nalan Yu back, and then stopped their movements,

"Okay, get up and talk, what's going on?Why are you lying to the four of us?" The two stopped kowtowing after listening to Liu Qi's words, but they still didn't dare to stand up,

"Alas, the two of us were originally friends from the same village, and by chance we got a fragment of the cultivation exercises, and the two of us relied on this fragment to cultivate to the middle stage of Qi training, but we suffered from lack of resources, and the records of the exercises in this fragment are not very clear, so the two of us are still in the middle stage of Qi training,"

Saying that, there was an expression of regret and helplessness on the man's face,

"One day we came to Misty Town, and found that although this place is remote, we can occasionally encounter some small fierce beasts on the outskirts of the Misty Forest, and killing them can also be exchanged for some spirit stones, so we decided to stay here,"

"Isn't that good, and why did you end up in such a field?"

"It's good at the beginning, and our cultivation is steadily improving little by little, although it's not much, but we're very content, but the bad is also bad in this beast,"

"Oh, what do you mean by that?"

"One day we found a rare purple fox, the purple fox itself has no attack power, but it is extremely beautiful, if we can catch it, we can sell it to those female monks in the market in exchange for a lot of spirit stones, so we moved the idea of catching it,"

"How do you know that this purple fox is extremely smart, it keeps running and we keep chasing, chasing and chasing into the depths of the misty forest, but when we realize this it is too late, we want to go back but find that the road we came from has been covered by the fog, and at this moment suddenly we heard a voice,"

"Voices?

"An old voice, this voice says let's find four foundational monks here in seven days, or we will die, and he has left a poison mark on us, and if there are not enough foundational monks in seven days, we will be poisoned to death,"

As he spoke, the two of them rolled up their sleeves and let Liu Qi look at their arms.

Liu Qi found that there was indeed a purple mark on their arm, which was in the shape of a gossip, but Liu Qi was not sure if it was poison or not.

"Even if what you say is true, why do you have to choose the four of us?"

"The seniors are wronged, the seniors are wronged,"

"Oh, then tell me how I wronged you?"

"The predecessors don't know, when the two of us went out of the misty forest, we looked for all the pharmacists in the misty town, but no one knew what kind of poison it was, but we would rather believe it than not, we have no choice but to keep spreading the legend of the tomb of the Marquis of Wuhou in the misty restaurant to attract people, it's not a secret, today is just the seventh day,"

"Oh, today is your deadline, and why are you still alive and well?

"Hehe, the reason why the two of them didn't die is because I still want them to attract more monks here, hehe,"

"Who? who are you?"

"Hehe, who am I? Am I not the Marquis of Wu, haven't you been looking for my tomb? Come on, it's in front, come on,"

"We don't have time to play hide and seek with you, could it be that you poisoned these two?"

"Yes, yes, senior, this is the voice we heard at the beginning, it is the poison he left in the two of us, I hope the seniors will help us," said the two and began to kowtow again, this time Liu Qi did not stop them.

At this time, all the attention of Liu Qi and the four of them was looking for the source of the voice, but the voice only appeared in these two sentences, and then disappeared, Liu Qi turned around and frowned at the two people who were still kowtowing on the ground, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
