It has been a while since he came to Fengxian Mountain, and during this time, Huang Yan has more or less a certain understanding of the past of Fengxian Mountain through contact with Feng Chenghuang and others.

The so-called "phoenix" should refer to Feng Chenghuang's great-grandfather, that is, his father Feng Jianyao's grandfather. At the beginning, he came here during the seventy years of the ghost tribulation, and before he arrived, Fengxian Mountain was still known as the "Mountain of No Return".

Due to the abundance of materials and minerals in the Mountains, there are a large number of animals and monsters that inhabit the area all year round, but it is also for the same reason that people take risks to collect minerals and materials in the mountains, knowing that there are many dangerous creatures here, and many people die in the mountains.

At first, people outside the mountain will try to rescue the people who are killed in the mountains, but the situation is often that the people who go to the rescue often encounter disasters, and if they fail to save people, they will fall into it, so over time, people will no longer help the victims, but let them fend for themselves, and die in despair in the mountains. Therefore, a lot of resentment has accumulated in the mountain, and some people even turn into turbid spirits after death, and through the corpses and creatures in the mountain, the already sinister mountain of no return has become more dangerous, and no ordinary people have dared to approach this place since then.

But the places that ordinary people dare not approach are precisely the favorite places of rangers from all walks of life.

It was at this time that more and more young and vigorous rangers began to regard the Mountain of No Return as a place of trial, and regarded the overcoming of the Mountain of No Return as the highest glory. However, there were hundreds of people, and only one person succeeded in the end, and that was "Fengxian". At that time, he was only 30 years old, but he was already one of the strongest rangers at that time, and he took the mountain of no return that no one else could conquer with his life, and finally settled on the mountain with his wife and 10-year-old son Feng Weifa*.

(Feng Chenghuang's grandfather)

Now settled, the first thing Feng Xian did at that time was to exterminate the remaining evil spirits in the mountain, and it is rumored that in order to protect his family and the people who came to apprentice and collect minerals, he also expelled the animals and monsters that were harmful to people in the mountain - and for some beasts and animals that were relatively less harmful, he showed mercy to them and allowed them to survive in the wild areas artificially divided in the mountains, but only set up barriers to ensure that these creatures would not threaten the safety of the people in the mountains.

——

Having said that, Huang Chuan, who was already in the wild area, could still experience the power of the phoenix more than 50 years ago, because the wild area that the phoenix was designated as "relatively less harmful" back then made Huang Huang feel that he could not take it lightly at all.

Before Huang Yan traveled, he specially asked the people at the Yingxian Inn about the location of Heijie Qiuluo, but none of the several people of his generation had ever been assigned this task, and Xianyunhe was not in the mountains at this time, so he had to ask Li Xianyu, so he had to.

"Go out from the north," Li Yuyu said, still shaving with a knife, "just follow the side of the tree with crooked necks on the road, just keep walking!"

After that, Li Yanyu crooked his neck.

"I really don't understand how Senior Mu Nara would assign you such a dangerous thing," Jiu Yu'er handed Huang Yan the equipment and food needed for the trip, and said, "But since she specially arranged it, we won't help you, only on your own!"

Huang Yan nodded to Jiu'er as a sign of gratitude.

"Be careful, don't die~" Lu Nan leaned against the door with his nostrils and said.

"It's very troublesome to carry a corpse in the deep mountains and old forests. Lu Jin sat on the stone chair and said shaking his legs.

"Bastard. Huang Yan scolded in a low voice and left.

————

"Worthy of a wild area. Huang Yan thought to himself, he used Jueyuan vigilantly all the way, except for occasionally perceiving the existence of some animals, the breath of people, he really didn't even have half a point.

He listened to the information that Li Xiyu pointed out to him, and he did encounter a lot of trees with crooked necks along the way, and looking in the direction they pointed, all of them were the shady side of the mountain.

"The name doesn't sound very bright. Huang Yan muttered to himself.

He looked around, and his vision had become very unclear. Although there are not many trees here, their branches and foliage are extremely dense, and they can almost be described as shading. Although he had set off at noon, the few rays of light that had been cast on the ground through the gaps in the leaves made him feel like it was dusk.

"Sand!"

He jumped lightly on the ground full of fallen leaves, grabbed a low branch, and tossed twice to the top of the tree, trying to find the location of the next crooked-neck tree.

The light was really dim, and although Huang Suffer's eyesight was good, it was quite hard to find in this situation, and he couldn't find the crooked neck tree left and right, so he planned to climb higher, but just when he just hugged the trunk of the tree and looked at his feet—

But I saw a cave.

This cave is the place where I passed when I came, and it was not discovered.

He looked around to make sure there were no people or monsters, and jumped down again.

But the moment he jumped down, he suddenly felt a sight behind him, and as soon as he landed, he quickly turned back - it was an ape, it was holding on to the trunk of another tree, looking at Huang Ji curiously, and after a while, it left boringly.

"Tsk, this place is not only dark, but even the animals are chattering. Huang Yan thought to himself, and then turned and walked towards the cave.

Of course, he didn't believe that there would be a black knotted shearchula in this cave, because the task given to him by Munara would never be so simple, but judging from the topography, it was most likely a passageway, and it coincided with the direction pointed by the nearest crooked neck tree.

So he tied a string with a bell at the entrance, and walked quietly inside.

Among the equipment that Jiu'er gave him, there was a fluorescent lamp made of powder made of fluorescent grass grinding, but he didn't take it out and use it immediately, because he didn't want to expose his position too obviously, and the darkness was not an unfamiliar environment to him.

He picked up a stone and threw it deeper into the cavern, then concentrated, waiting for a long time to hear it fall to the ground, and then the sound of several bat-like creatures being awakened.

“......”

It doesn't seem to be very dangerous, and it is indeed possible that it is a passage. Speculating in this way, Huang Yu accelerated his pace slightly.

"Sand ...... Sand...... "Huang Xuan's footsteps were very light, and he tapped on the ground with the branches he picked up casually.......

But before he could take five steps, he stopped.

Then, he leaned down slowly, as if in preparation, and then, cautiously, little by little, he moved the branch in his hand to the ground—he felt it, and the branch seemed to touch something like hemp rope.

"Whew-"

He held his breath and tried to jerk the branch back, because he didn't know what was going to happen, so he leaned down and prepared to dodge.

The branches moved slightly, little by little, little by little......

"Jingle bell!"

At that moment, the bell at the entrance rang suddenly.

Huang Yan was nervous, but after all, he controlled his body and kept the previous rhythm in his hands.

"Jingle bells, jingle bells......"

The bell rang irregularly, as if someone had deliberately taken down the bell on the line.

After a while, the bell sound was gone.

“......”

"Whew. ”

Huang forced himself to calm down and did not show any unusual movements.

"Whoosh!"

At the moment when Huang Yan quickly pulled away the branches, a net instantly retracted from the ground upwards, and the top of the cave was actually deliberately dug out of a hole, obviously someone had set a trap. "......" It seems that the front of this cave is not as safe as imagined. Huang Yan turned around and walked slowly to the entrance, and when he could see the entrance of the cave in the distance, Huang Yan stopped.

Against the dim light, he vaguely saw a figure, his eyes shining, staring at him motionlessly.

Huang Yan didn't step forward directly, first tried with killing intent, but the figure didn't have a special reaction to the killing intent, just slowly turned around and walked in the opposite direction, and Huang Yan saw it a little clearly-it had a tail.

Huang Yan no longer hesitated, and walked towards the entrance of the cave step by step.

The ape he had seen earlier stood in front of him, as if waiting for him.

“......”

Judging from the fact that the ape was not afraid of killing intent, Huang Yu preferred to believe that this was not an ordinary ape, so he slid out of his sleeves with two weapons, a short knife and a sleeve thorn, without any breath.

Strike first.

However, just as he was about to rush forward with one foot on the ground, he suddenly felt something strange in his legs, looked down, and found that it was a dry hand that grabbed his ankle.

"—— calm. ”

Huang Yan's first reaction was, of course, to dodge and jump away, but he immediately realized that if he panicked at this time, it would give other enemies a chance to take advantage of the weakness - he looked at the ape, but there was no movement.

“......”

"Strange. Huang Yan stared at the ape and slowly squatted down, "Wow!" He slashed off the arm that grabbed his ankle, not feeling any fleshy texture.

It's not that Huang Yan hasn't seen zombies, but this hand on the ground has neither the breath of life nor the breath of the dead, which is really peculiar, so even if he had already used Jueyuan when he passed here before, he didn't have half of it.

After he cut off the dry hand, nothing happened, and he immediately straightened up his half-crouched body, ready for the next move.

"Suddenly——!

A gust of yin wind swept by, and he was not the only one who stood up—more than a dozen withered bodies stood upright from the ground at the same time, and in the darkness, swaying with the yin wind, it was very terrifying.

Preemptive.

Huang Yu didn't intend to savor the horror, but immediately rushed forward with the strength of his feet, his body so fast that he had caused the objects to lose their heads before they could react.

But Huang's main target was the unusual ape, so after he had cut down a few more unidentified objects and made a path, he quickly flashed towards it.

Huang Zheng came fiercely, but the ape had no intention of escaping, he saw that Huang Yan's speed mainly came from his legs, so he leaned down and threw his arms towards Huang Yan's lower plate.

Although the positioning of this blow was accurate, the intention was too clear after all, and Huang Hao only needed to jump up before he was hit.

“？”

hit, before Huang Ji could jump, the ape's arm actually hit him strangely, his legs were impacted, and his body unconsciously leaned forward.

"Huh!"

Before Huang Ji understood what was going on, he saw that the ape had quickly rushed over and was about to grab him, but fortunately, Huang Yan reacted quickly, rotated in the direction of leaning forward, and hit the ape with a side kick in the chest, but unexpectedly, he himself was shocked and took two steps back.

"......" Huang Ji felt like he had kicked a boulder.

"Whoa!" The ape began to pound its chest violently, making a "thump" sound, evidently proud of its hard chest.

"Look for death!" Huang Yan was provoked, scolded angrily, quickly took two steps forward, exerted force again, and kicked over at the same angle and posture.

Naturally, the ape puffed up his breath and puffed up his chest to take the blow.

"Poof——!

I saw that the ape was kicked two or three meters away and fell to the ground.

It turned out that Huang Yu had attached "aura" to this attack, and it was all concentrated on the legs.

Huang Ji would not let go of the opportunity, and immediately set off in pursuit, wanting to kill the ape with one blow, but unexpectedly, at this time, other unknown objects pounced on him like crazy and surrounded him.

"Pestering!"

Huang Yan grabbed the nearest unknown object and threw it to the side hard, but was shocked to find that its body was light and fluttering, and the weight was not heavy at all. But he didn't bother to entangle with these things, so he moved his aura to his legs, jumped violently, and jumped out of the encirclement.

This jump was about four or five meters high, and just when Huang Yan's body rose to the highest point, he suddenly saw that the ape on the ground was also half-squatting, and his legs were exerting force, like that, it was like wanting to rush straight towards himself in the air.

But Huang Yan's jump was made after the aura was attached to his legs, and it was impossible for ordinary animals to jump up.

But it still caught up—

"What!" Huang Xuan said in shock, only to see the ape's sturdy legs flick on the ground, and like an arrow from the string, the whole body rushed straight towards himself who had not yet stabilized his body in the air, and hit the central fossa.

"Huh!"

This blow was not trivial, Huang Yan not only suffered a violent impact on his chest, but also fell from the air to the ground, a stream of blood came out of his mouth, and he got up with some difficulty.

"Huh!"

A gust of wind hit.

He turned his head to see that the ape actually grabbed an unknown object and threw it at him, and Huang Ji immediately stabbed it with his backhand, cutting it off in two. But the ape had no shortage of objects to throw, and grabbed two unidentified objects at will, roared and rushed up.

"Whoop!"

With the knife in his hand, Huang Yu slashed the two unknown objects thrown by the ape into four pieces in an instant, and his eyes did not look at the two unknown objects, but kept staring at the ape, because he knew that it would definitely make a follow-up attack.

Sure enough, the ape spread his arms as he charged, and then threw it at Huang Shen, as if trying to make a meat patty.

Strangely, within this distance, it was impossible for the ape to hit him, but out of an abundance of caution, Huang Xiao lowered his head and prepared to dodge the blow.

"Suddenly——!

At the moment of attack, the ape's arm actually became longer, and with this ability, it was no wonder that it was able to hit Huang Shen's leg before.

Huang was glad that he chose to dodge.

"Smack——!

Suddenly, a loud sound like a gong slapping sounded above Huang Chuan's head, like thunder, shaking Huang Zheng's head and swelling.

It turned out that the ape had long expected that Huang Yu would bend down to avoid its elongated attack, so he prepared a back hand, even if the hands did not hit the opponent, it could cause a strong slapping sound to stun the opponent.

Huang Yan lost consciousness for a while, the ape immediately flashed forward, his knees flew up, and he hit Huang Zheng in the chest again, only to see Huang Yan's body fly backwards like tissue paper, but the ape refused to stop, threw out his arms, and grabbed the Huang Yan who flew away.

This series of movements is clean and neat, comparable to that of a professional warrior - where did this ape come from?

Huang Yan's chest was hit continuously, the pain was severe and embarrassing, and his body was fiercely hugged by the ape with his strong arms, except for a few difficult coughs, there was no room to move.

"Crunch, crunch......" Huang Ji felt his bones being ravaged.

But it was at this critical juncture that Huang Yan suddenly sneered and said, "Being so close to me, do you want to find death?"

Huang Yan's words fell, the ape's body suddenly softened, his arms relaxed, Huang Yan seized this opportunity, his whole body luck, quickly broke free, and then only heard the sound of "poof"-

The cold light flashed, and the sharp blade in Huang Yan's hand slashed through the ape's throat.
