Perhaps because of their similar physique, Banner and Zhang Jixin fell in the same courtyard.

It was as if two meteorites had smashed two irregular deep pits in this small courtyard.

The blue giant lay lazily at the bottom of the pit, and before he even got up, he began to shout: "Edamame, Edamame, let the others come over and drag me!"

The gray figure burst out of the void and landed in the blue giant's ear, sticking out his tongue and snorting, biting his ear and trying to drag the fat man out of the bottom of the pit.

"Quiet!"

Zhang Jixin, who was the first to get up, gestured to the fat man, with a serious expression on his face: "Everyone is separated." There were just the two of us here. ”

One man and one dog immediately fell silent.

Zhang Jixin walked out of the pit and looked around.

This is a deserted courtyard, and the atmosphere in the courtyard is a little gloomy, and I don't know if there are any residents.

Brians and wisteria crept along the cracks in the walls, the small vegetable garden in the courtyard was overgrown with weeds, hemp ropes were tied to the wells, and damp wooden barrels were dumped haphazardly in the mud.

Look out along the stone walls of the courtyard.

Far away, there is a dense forest, and beyond the forest are rolling hills, and the meandering river weaves like a ribbon between the hills. Large tracts of reclaimed farmland reveal fertile soil, and a few wisps of green smoke rise at the end of the field.

That's human traffic.

"This is where it is. Fat Xin crawled out of the bottom of the pit and asked in a low voice.

Edamame has disappeared into the void again.

"I don't know. Zhang Jixin tightened the fist gloves in his hands, folded the few runes given by Zheng Qing, and stuffed them on the side of the fist gloves close to the back of his hands, so as not to accidentally lose them after encountering conflicts.

He flexed his thumb, pointed back, and added, "But I know it's at the foot of a certain mountain...... If everyone is nearby, you can definitely see this mountain. ”

The fat man glanced back, and finally knew why there was always a gloomy aura flowing in this courtyard.

Because it is located at the foot of a large mountain.

The steep peaks reach into the sky, and the clouds can be seen halfway up the mountain. And this courtyard, shrouded in the shadow of this mountain, is inevitably cold.

There was no movement in the house, and the two male witches didn't want to have more trouble, Zhang Jixin put a golden bean under the windowsill as compensation for smashing the yard, and then dragged Xin Fatzi out.

Neither of them noticed that the moment they left the courtyard, a small crack opened in the closed window, and a thin soft tentacle stretched out, taking in the golden bean that had been placed on the windowsill.

The steps in front of the door seem to have been washed away by floodwaters, and there are many signs of cracking, and the path below the steps is so submerged with weeds and messy stones that there is almost no trace of the path.

"If you want me to say, your golden bean is a complete waste. The fat man was angry at Zhang Jixin's unusually generous behavior just now: "...... Tsk, a golden bean, how many chicken legs can you buy, how much beef jerky you can buy!"

Having said that, he opened the law book with his hands and feet neatly, and successively threw out several incantations such as 'Fixed's Prescription', 'Birdsong', 'Dying Quartet, Pound and Pound'.

A location spell, a liaison spell, a spell to detect and monitor the security of the surroundings.

The magic fluctuations were fleeting, like a small pebble being thrown into Linzhong Lake, without stirring up a single wave. The fat man's face became slightly serious, and his blue face and the gloomy atmosphere around him looked particularly weird.

"My brother said that when you go out, you must learn to spend money to eliminate disasters. Zhang Jixin explained very seriously: "No matter how hard our fists are, it is inevitable that we will lose points in terms of time and place...... So don't be stingy at times like these. ”

"The poor are rich, I know. The fat man replied perfunctorily as he copied the spell on the blank page he had just used.

"The contact spell didn't respond?" Zhang Jixin asked rhetorically.

"Expected. Xin Fatzi put away the quill, wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and complained: "Originally, these jobs were all doctors' business...... Waste my vermilion. ”

As they spoke, the two of them had already walked along the path to a three-way intersection at the foot of the mountain.

There is a wooden sign at the intersection.

There are three wooden arrows pointing in three directions.

An arrow pointed to the way the two men had come, and it was marked 'Old House of Clasan Nguala'. The two of them suddenly understood that the small courtyard they left just now should belong to the 'Old Mansion of Nguera' marked on the arrow, and the name of the mountain behind them, not surprisingly, is Kela Mountain.

The second arrow points to the forest in the distance, marked 'Enchanted Forest: Zuge'.

The third arrow is the widest, and the handwriting on it is very clear, so it can be seen that someone should have maintained it regularly. It reads 'Usa' and has a cat's head drawn in white chalk.

"What is Zuge?" Fat Xin pointed to the word behind the second arrow and asked curiously.

Zhang Jixin had a straight face, and his voice was a little annoyed: "You think I'm a doctor?"

The fat man shrugged, did not continue to stimulate his companion, and instead pointed to the third arrow: "Let's go here." ”

"Why?"

"Because there's a cat's head drawn on it. ”

“...... What kind of fairy reason is this?"

"Magic is mysterious because of its great possibilities and uncertainties. Possibility means that any event that has a hidden connection has the possibility of occurring, and uncertainty means that when we are not sure how things will develop next, we can refer to the first point. ”

"Which theory is this? Why haven't I heard of it?" Zhang Jixin was puzzled: "Although I have learned generally, I have heard of those well-known theories in the wizarding world." ”

"I just came up with it!" Fat Xin looked confident, and bent down to tie a horse talisman to his calf: "Believe me, only a person like me who has lofty goals and wants to become a great wizard has this kind of far-sighted and commanding view!"

For this kind of boasting, Zhang Jixin naturally scoffed.

But at the same time, he admitted that the cat head did trigger his intuition. Zheng Qing's tail and Jiang Yu's ears subconsciously appeared in his mind, and he silently approved the fat man's choice in his heart.

Of course, the reason that finally made Zhang Jixin make up his mind was the gray figure lying under the arrow of the third street sign.

Edamame Face pointed out his tongue in the direction of Usa, wagging his tail happily at the two young wizards.

Zhang Jixin squatted down and began to tie armor and horse talismans to his legs.

"Why do you think we're here? After tying up the rune paper, Zhang Jixin stood up and took one last look at the deep path behind him, as well as the figure of the tall Kela Mountain.

The fat man stretched his arms and stretched his waist, making the final preparations before running.

"Who knows," he replied lazily, "maybe it's because this place is related to us." But it can also be just a matter of probability. ”
