To the west of Danyang County, there is a large wasteland area, and the Wei River flows through the wasteland. Crossing the wasteland, it is a primeval forest, through the forest to continue to the north, you can soon reach Longyuan Mountain, and the so-called Zouma Village, in fact, is located on Longyuan Mountain.

Longyuan Mountain is the main peak of the mountains, and there are several side peaks such as Luoxia Mountain, Shuiyun Mountain, and Jianfeng around it. After some discussion, Su Mo and the others decided to choose a side peak to climb, and then climb the main peak of Longyuan Mountain after crossing the mountain and mountains.

The reason why this is done is because the main mountain road of Longyuan Mountain has been guarded by the bandits of the horse village. In addition, there is a goshawk communication on the mountain, once the traces of Su Mo and the three of them are exposed, they will definitely be surrounded by many bandits.

Whether it was Su Mo or Xuan Xiaozi, neither of them was arrogant enough to think that the three of them had the strength to attack the mountain directly.

If nothing else, if it was a group of Yin Spirits who possessed the bandits, it would be difficult enough to deal with. If a few of the bandits are possessed by sneaks, the difficulty of exterminating them will increase by a few points.

The next day, Li Yingyi drove a carriage and sent Su Mo and the three to the wasteland.

Now the weeds in the wasteland have turned from withered yellow to green, and are blown by the wind, making a 'bang' sound.

There are many paths in the wasteland, some leading to the primeval forest, and some connecting Danyang City and some surrounding villages and towns, and most of these paths have been carved out by people.

Su Mo and the three of them were walking on a small road at this time.

Along the way, Xuan Xiaozi and Ye Zhiwei took turns asking him many questions, but his answers were a little vague. And Su Mo himself also asked these two masters from the great sect a lot of questions, most of which were about martial arts cultivation.

For Ye Zhiwei and the others, this time they went to Zouma Village, not just to help the Dajiang Gang exterminate the demons.

A more important purpose is to force Su Mo to expose some clues. You must know that an ordinary mortal with the existence of yin qi in his body is too unusual to let it go.

Of course, Ye Zhiwei and Xuan Xiaozi didn't have the idea of harming Su Mo, but Su Mo himself didn't think so, so they were a little wary of the two of them along the way.

In about half a day, the three of them had already crossed the wasteland and officially entered the area of the primeval forest.

Su Mo thought of the barren forest where the bodies of the Black Wind Dao people and the old monk were buried last time, and it seemed that it was not far from here.

When he thought of what happened at that time, he was a little embarrassed.

"Protector Su, now that it's getting dark, do you think we will climb the mountain directly, or will we spend the night in the forest?" Ye Zhiwei glanced at the not very generous back in front of her.

Su Mo turned around and said, "Why don't we rest for a while first, and then rush for a while." It doesn't matter where you go, if you can't do it, you will wait until tomorrow to set off. ”

"Good. Ye Zhiwei nodded. She changed into a cyan robe that was convenient for fighting with people today, and the whole person also had a little more heroic temperament.

She was a young girl after all, and she still cared about cleanliness and tidiness, so she just stood there and rested for a while. On the other hand, Su Mo sat under a tree and leisurely took out a water bladder from behind his waist to drink.

This time I went to Zhumazhai to deal with strange affairs, and I think it shouldn't take too long.

Su Mo's baggage contained some food, and Ye Zhiwei and Xuan Xiaozi were the same. And once in the mountains, there are too many things to eat, such as some wild fruits, wild vegetables, or small beasts, which can be used as food.

After a short rest, the three of them continued on their way, and when they walked out of the edge of the forest, a mountain peak appeared in front of them.

The mountain is not too high, the main body is grayish-white, with various vegetation and a stone staircase leading to the top.

Su Mo and the three of them are naturally not comparable to ordinary people, and they all have excellent foot strength. Before the sky was completely dark, he climbed directly to the top of the mountain of Luoxia Ridge.

The mountains here are all barren mountains and few people have set foot on them, and this Luoxia Ridge is the same. Su Mo didn't expect that the top of the mountain was actually quite flat, and there was also a large bamboo forest.

At this time, the mountain wind is howling, and the sound of bamboo leaves is endless.

"Why don't we just rest by the bamboo forest. Although he is not tired, it is really a bit dangerous to climb through Luoxia Ridge at night. Ye Zhiwei said.

"Oh well. Su Mo also had such a plan, now that it was dark, it would be a little irrational to continue to hurry.

"That's right, Miss Ye. Anyway, if you have nothing to do, why don't you tell me more about martial arts cultivation and the like? Su Mo took out a cloth blanket from his baggage and spread it on the edge of the bamboo forest with a 'bang'.

Ye Zhiwei was also not polite, she sat directly on the cloth carpet and said, "Su Protector, I don't know what realm grade you are now?"

"Above the forging bones, there is still some distance from the forging veins. Su Mo said.

"I'm actually a little curious, could it be that with just one rare fruit, you have directly ascended from a mortal to this realm?" Ye Zhiwei frowned and said, "I'm afraid that the top heavenly and earthly treasures don't have such an effect." ”

"Ah, I don't know. However, because I was about to reach the realm of forging veins, I had always wanted to get a copy of the martial arts mind method to study, but unfortunately I couldn't find it. ”

Su Mo has been holding on to the reason of the red fruit, after all, the matter of him inhaling yin qi is not a secret that can be shared with others casually.

And Ye Zhiwei's heart was a little angry, she could clearly feel that there was yin qi in Su Mo's body, but the other party kept it a secret.

Of course, she knew that this was a secret related to Su Wei's death, and she didn't think he had the courage to say it directly.

Ye Zhiwei has been thinking about how to find out about this matter, but she has not thought of a good idea, and Xuan Xiaozi even mentioned to her some means. But she felt that if she used strong words, the effect would only backfire, and even cause Su Mo's disgust.

"Well, if there's anything you want to ask, just ask me. Ye Zhiwei said.

"Then what is your current realm grade?" Su Mo asked, he didn't expect this girl to agree so happily.

"Well, I've started to cultivate the Heavenly Glass Mind Method now, and I haven't been able to cultivate to the level of condensation. ”

"Miss Ye, you have actually started to cultivate the mental method?" Su Mo sighed a little when he heard it. He is about the same age as Ye Zhiwei, but he has been thrown so far away.

"Is there anything unusual about this? You must know that since I was a child, Master has given me a lot of elixirs and spiritual herbs, and after taking them, of course, I can quickly improve my realm. Ye Zhiwei smiled absently.

The two of them were not far apart, and they were both sitting on the cloth carpet, chatting without a word.

As for Xuan Xiaozi, he was at the end of the bamboo forest, meditating cross-legged.

Su Mo sat quietly for a long time, and then sat down and fell asleep.

When he opened his eyes, he was dazzled to find that there was a faint black vapor around him.

This black gas is different from ordinary fog, and it is definitely not mountain fog.

Su Mo heard a slight 'snort, snort' sound coming from his body, which was the sound of the robe being dissolved.

In addition, he could smell the rancid smell of black gas, similar to the smell he had smelled in the Orchid Pavilion that night.

One thing is for sure, these black water vapors should be toxic.

"By the way, could this be the miasma that the gang surnamed Wang said?"

Su Mo came to his senses and hurriedly got up. Ye Zhiwei and Xuan Xiaozi are still there, one is sitting cross-legged, and the other is lying on the edge of the blanket, both quiet.

"Hmm, it smells so bad. At this time, Ye Zhiwei also woke up and slowly got up. In the hazy moonlight, she noticed the black water vapor and said in surprise, "This is ...... Miasma?"
